DIRECTORS’ REPORT(Including Management Discussion and Analysis)

Dear Shareholders,

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I present to you the Annual Report and Audited Consolidated Statement for Al Hassan Engineering Co. SAOG for the period ending 31st December 2015:

(Amounts in RO ‘ 000)

Particulars 2015 2014 % Change

Contract Income 102,278 76,295 34%

Other Income 166 258 -36%

Total Income 102,444 76,553 34%

Costs (other than Finance Charges) (108,987) (77,289) -

Profit / (Loss) before Finance Charges (6,543) (736) -

Finance Charges (1,450) (1,058) 37%

Net Profit / (Loss) before tax (7,993) (1,794) -

Income Tax (including deferred tax) (231) 353 -

Net Profit / (Loss) after tax (8,224) (1,441) -

The Company has recorded the highest ever Turnover both in Oman and in UAE in 2015. The Contract Income increased by 34%.

Reasons for the Increase in Losses:Based on the unaudited results Company had reported a loss of RO 2.636 million for 2015 to the MSM on 14th February, 2016. However, after discussion with Audit Committee and External Auditors, the company has decided to be prudent in recognizing revenue & has reduced an amount of RO 5.13 million from Revenue recognized previously for ‘Variations & Claims‘ from several contracts . The ‘costs to complete’ for matching this revenue, have already been accounted and Management is hopeful of getting all the variations certified in 2016. This has increased the loss for the year by RO 5.13 million. In addition, the deferred tax benefit for adjustment against future profits have also been cumulatively reversed resulting in an impact by RO 0.463 million on PAT. The Company will vigorously pursue all Variations & Claims on all contracts & believes that a reasonable portion of this amount could become recoverable in the future. This revenue will then become eligible for accounting at that time, without any additional associated costs.The Loss of RO 8.2 million incurred in 2015 is arising mainly from the reduction in revenue recognition on variations & claims & financial performance of two projects in Oman as detailed below.

Two Projects Contributing to the Loss in 2015

1. Zauliyah Gas Plant EPC Project for Petroleum Development Oman (“PDO”) being executed by Al Hassan-TR Engineering LLC JV (“AHTR”). The duration for completion has been extended; there have been changes to the original Scope of Works and, as a consequence, higher costs have been incurred. The underlying causes for extended duration for completion are the delays in Engineering Deliverables and supply of Equipment from International Vendors, which have been beyond the control span of the Company, despite its making significant additional efforts to mitigate the effects.

6

2. A Project in Sohar where significant increase in the costs have taken place due to expediting work & various issues. The Company is considering all measures to mitigate the loss.

RestructuringA complete Restructuring Plan is being worked out which will include and not limited to; Management Structure, Bank Debt & Addition of Equity Capital. This will focus on; Improved Bidding, Contract Execution, Change/Variation & Claims Management & Financial Accounting. This is expected to be done during the year 2016.

Vacant Land Sale Profit in 2016

The Company and the Major Shareholders are expected to enter into a Sale & Purchase Agreement for the vacant Land at Ghala at a price of RO 3.2 million (subject to Annual General Meeting approval). This land was vacated in 2015 by relocating the Fabrication, Plant Workshop and Stores to a new and improved facility at Nizwa. This agreement is expected to be approved in the AGM and will give the Company a cash inflow of RO 3.2 million, resulting in a one-time non-operational profit of RO 2.9 million in Q2 - 2016.In addition, all efforts are also being made to seek recovery and reimbursement of Company’s additional costs as incurred as a result of the acts/omissions of its Clients/Subcontractors/Suppliers, including involvement of Third Party/Legal Dispute Resolution process as appropriate.

The Revenue growth of the Company over the last five years is as shown in the table below:

Year 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015

Revenue 61,099 50,279 63,348 76,553 102,278

Human Resources The Company continues to strive towards keeping its HRD function abreast with the changing work environment and aligning itself with the newest innovations in employee engagement, compensation and recruitment. 2015 proved to be yet another year where the Company HR continued to roll out innovations.This year the Company introduced a multidimensional assessment tool for potential candidates. This initiative is a watershed moment in recruitment, because it enables the recruiters to assess a candidate on several variables including behavioral attributes, enabling the Company to have a comprehensive idea of a probable candidate’s capabilities. The

8

Company broadened the scope of the tool to include its existing employees in order to gauge and quantify their competency. The Company can safely state that it has the most holistic assessment capabilities among engineering companies in Oman.2015 was, indeed, a happening year as far as world oil prices is concerned. Given the increasingly competitive nature of the employee market, the Company conducted comprehensive salary surveys, with the objective to align its compensation practices with those of the market. The results were incorporated in the year’s appraisals. To the same end, the Company rolled out its new incentive polices in various categories for project staff, to recognize the potential, focus on enhance productivity and abolish nepotistic trends (if any). The Company remains committed towards Omanization across all levels of the business by working closely with the Ministry of Manpower and OPAL from whom it holds both the necessary Green Card and Compliance Verification Certificate respectively. Programs of Management Trainees and Internships continued unabated and we remained one of the most visible employers at the career fairs. We took leaps in vocational training, with 85 trainees successfully completing their respective programs and being inducted into the Company.All the above initiatives were undertaken despite the added pressures of developing new job descriptions, rightsizing, compensation management, performance appraisals, training & development and recruitment; the employee workforce increased to 7,445 (up by 26%). However, challenges remain and the Company is working diligently to come up to the mark with the best in the industry.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

The Company has taken throughout 2015 a number of activities with the objective of providing a sustainable contribution to the growth and well-being of the local community. An amount of RO 23,358/- was spent during the year across various CSR activities that include contributions to the various sports, health and cultural initiatives in various parts of Oman; Employment and Training of the local people in and around its work sites; building of mosques and contributions to the educational activities of children. The Company shall continue with such initiatives that bring about a positive change in the society and environment at large.

Risks / Opportunities

A Risk Management Committee has been formed to assess/address the risks and their mitigation in a timely manner The Company will continue to adopt transparent and ethical business practices

The construction and contracting business does, however, have inherent cost risks associated with scope / time / resource estimation. There are also risks associated with contractual interpretations and/or non-receipt of timely inputs from Clients/Subcontractors/Suppliers which can affect the overall cost recovery. The Company continues to review and update processes for recognizing, managing and mitigating these business risks to the best possible extent.

Variation & Claims on contracts have been included in Revenue as per the Accounting policy & International Accounting Standards. The matching costs incurred/expected to be incurred for these revenues have also been included in the Project ‘Cost to Complete’

An assessment is made of outstanding variations & their recoverability and an amount of RO 19.29 million which is approximately 50% of such amounts claimed, is included as revenue up to Dec 2015. The actual realization could be higher or lower due to a variety of factors.

Management Changes and Cost OptimizationIn January 2016 Mr. Stephen Scott relinquished his position as CEO, and Dr. Shawqi Hamdan Sajwani has taken over as the new CEO. Dr. Sajwani has over 30 years of experience, starting with General Motors in USA, Dubai Aluminum Co. (“DUBAL”) and Dubai Holding (“DH”) as Group Director Business Excellence. Since 2009 he has practiced consultancy in Business Management.

Mr. Adil Darwish Yousef Al Lawati has also joined the company as General Manager-Projects, He is an Omani National, and a Mechanical Engineer trained in the USA, and has over two decades of extensive and diverse work experience in the Oil & Gas business in organisations such as PDO and Tebodin.

Significant changes led by the new CEO are underway to restructure the Company; to improve asset/manpower utilization and to reduce costs all across the Company, which can be expected to make it lean and efficient for the future challenges.

Al Hassan Engineering Co. Abu Dhabi LLC Subsidiary CapitalisationThe financial requirements of the Abu Dhabi LLC subsidiary (which has had a good growth) are presently supported by the Parent Company in Oman. It is expected that in 2016 a re-capitalization of this LLC Company may be implemented, subject to selection of a new shareholder and the obtaining of all necessary approvals. This will increase the Share Capital and bring in the cash required for independent operations. This is expected to reduce the Parent Company support requirement, strengthen the Net Worth at a consolidated level, and reduce the Bank Borrowings by the Parent Company.

Future OutlookThe Company has built a very strong market reputation in over 30 years of operation for completing all projects undertaken successfully, and presently employs over 4000 people in Oman. It has a confirmed Order Book of RO 94 million (as of December 2015) and expects its Revenues in 2016 to be at par with 2015, despite the market environment.

The changes as described above are also expected to improve Project Delivery and Deliver Cost Reductions in 2016

The Inflow of RO 3.2 million from the Ghala Land Sale, Recapitalization of the Abu Dhabi subsidiary and the concluding of current negotiations with some Clients that are currently in their final closing stages are expected to reduce the debt level by Q2 - 2016.

Although the recent Oil Price decline inevitably affects the total market size where the Company operates, its current bidding scope and revenue is unlikely to be adversely affected in the immediate future years due to forthcoming opportunities such as Liwa Plastics, Duqm Refinery, IPP’s and other PDO projects. The Company is well placed to get a reasonable share of these significantly high value Projects being/to be tendered. The Company as part of its initiative has also established Engineering Design capability in UAE which will identify new opportunities in years to come.

Gratitude and AppreciationThe Board expresses its gratitude and appreciation to His Majesty Sultan Qaboos Bin Said and to His Government for their continuous support to the private sector.

The Board would also like to thank all Regulatory Authorities, Commercial Banks in Oman where it maintains excellent relationships, business partners and all the clients of the Company and media for their co-operation and continued support.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED AND PARENT COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015

1 Legal status and principal activitiesAlHassanEngineeringCompanySAOG (the “Parent Company”) is registered as a Omani joint stock Company under the Commercial Companies Law of the Sultanate of Oman. The registered address of the company is P O Box 1948, Ruwi, Postal Code 112, Sultanate of Oman. The Parent Company is engaged in electrical, mechanical, instrumentation and civil contracting primarily in the oil and gas sectors. The principal place of business is located in Muscat.

This set of financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 comprise the Parent Company and its Subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”) and the details of the subsidiaries are disclosed in note 13. The consolidated financial statements of the Group and the stand-alone financials statements of the Parent Company together referred as “the financial statements”.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies2.1 Basis of preparation and statement of compliance

These financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of derivative financial instruments at fair value through statement of comprehensive income.

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the requirements of the Commercial Companies Law of the Sultanate of Oman, 1974 (as amended) and comply with the disclosure requirements set out in the ‘Rules and Guidelines on Disclosure by issuer of Securities and Insider Trading’ issued by the Capital Market Authority (CMA) of the Sultanate of Oman.

2.2 Going concern At 31 December 2015, the Group has accumulated losses of RO 7,278,337 and as of that date the Group’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by RO 7,643,893 (2014 : RO 623,416). The Board of Directors believe that the Group and the Parent Company will be able to continue as a going concern with the continuing support of its shareholders and financial institutions and successful implementation of its business plan to improve its operations. Therefore, these financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group and the Parent Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Management is working under the guidance of the Board of Directors to improve the operations and the financial performance of the Group.

RestructuringSignificant changes led by the new Chief Executive Officer are underway to restructure the Group to improve asset / manpower utilization and to reduce costs, which can be expected to make it lean and efficient for the future challenges.

A complete restructuring plan is being worked out and being implemented. This will focus on improved bidding, contract execution, change / variation and claims management, equity enhancement and financial accounting.

Recovery of additional contract costsAll efforts are being made to seek confirmation for reimbursement and recovery of additional costs incurred as a result of the changes/acts/omissions of its clients/ subcontractors / suppliers, including involvement of third party/legal dispute resolution process as appropriate.

Vacant land saleThe Parent Company is expected to enter into a sale and purchase agreement for the vacant land at Ghala at a price of RO 3.2 million subject to approval in Annual General Meeting. This will give the Parent Company a cash inflow of RO 3.2 million, resulting in a one-time non-operational profit of RO 2.9 million in Q2 - 2016.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED AND PARENT COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015 (continued)

Future business outlook

The Group has an order book of RO 94 million on hand to execute with Petroleum Development of Oman (PDO) and the international prestigious clients.

The Group is prequalified to bid for many projects in Oman and UAE and the future market size is significant . This brings value as the ‘Prequalification’ is a function of time and experience.

There are many other projects under active bidding e.g. the power projects in PDO, ORPIC, Liwa Plastics and Duqm refinery in the near future ,where the Group has a very good potential to win work.

The Business Plan based on future upcoming projects, where the Group is prequalified to bid, competitive position and past experience, indicates a positive future outlook.

Capitalisation and partnering

The order book position, Group’s prequalification’s certifications and registrations with clients, have significant value embedded.

In order to realize its potential and support growth options to increase equity capital, including through value added partners, is also being explored both in Oman and UAE subsidiaries.

This can be expected to strengthen the financial position and give further confidence to all stakeholders.

2.3 Adoption of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)

New and revised IFRSs applied with no material effect on the combined financial statements

The following new and revised IFRSs, which became effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015, have been adopted in these financial statements.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (revised versions in 2009, 2010, 2013 and 2014)IFRS 9 issued in November 2009 introduced new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. IFRS 9 was subsequently amended in October 2010 to include requirements for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities and for derecognition, and in November 2013 to include the new requirements for general hedge accounting. Another revised version of IFRS 9 was issued in July 2014 mainly to include a) impairment requirements for financial assets and b) limited amendments to the classification and measurement requirements by introducing a ‘fair value through other comprehensive income’ (FVTOCI) measurement category for certain simple debt instruments.A finalised version of IFRS 9 which contains accounting requirements for financial instruments, replacing IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The standard contains requirements in the following areas:

· Classification andmeasurement: Financial assets are classified by reference to the business model within which they are held and their contractual cash flow characteristics. The 2014 version of IFRS 9 introduces a ‘fair value through other comprehensive income’ category for certain debt instruments. Financial liabilities are classified in a similar manner to under IAS 39, however there are differences in the requirements applying to the measurement of an entity’s own credit risk.

1 January 2018

· Impairment: The 2014 version of IFRS 9 introduces an ‘expected credit loss’ model for the measurement of the impairment of financial assets, so it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before a credit loss is recognised

· Hedge accounting: Introduces a new hedge accounting model that is designed to be more closely aligned with how entities undertake risk management activities when hedging financial and non-financial risk exposures.

· Derecognition: The requirements for the derecognition of financial assets and liabilities are carried forward from IAS 39.

Amendments to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures relating to disclosures about the initial application of IFRS 9

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, IFRS 15 was issued which established a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. IFRS 15 will supersede the current revenue recognition guidance including IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction Contracts and the related interpretations when it becomes effective.

The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Specifically, the standard introduces a 5-step approach to revenue recognition:· Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.· Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.· Step 3: Determine the transaction price.· Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance

obligations in the contract.· Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a

performance obligation.

Under IFRS 15, an entity recognises when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ‘control’ of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. Far more prescriptive guidance has been added in IFRS 15 to deal with specific scenarios. Furthermore, extensive disclosures are required by IFRS 15.

1 January 2018

IFRS 16 Leases

IFRS 16 specifies how an IFRS reporter will recognise, measure, present and disclose leases. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Lessors continue to classify leases as operating or finance, with IFRS 16’s approach to lessor accounting substantially unchanged from its predecessor, IAS 17.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)2.3 Adoption of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)

New and revised IFRS in issue but not yet effective (continued)

Management anticipates that these new and revised standards, interpretations and amendments will be adopted in the Group financial statements for the year beginning 1 January 2016 or as and when they are applicable and adoption of these new standards, interpretations and amendments, except for IFRS 9, IFRS 15 and IFRS 16, may have no material impact on the financial statements of the Company in the period of initial application.

Management anticipates that IFRS 15 and IFRS 9 will be adopted in the Group financial statements for the annual year beginning 1 January 2018 and IFRS 16 in the year 1 January 2019. The application of IFRS 15, IFRS 9 and IFRS 16 may have significant impact on amounts reported and disclosures made in the Group financial statements in respect of revenue from contracts with customers the Group financial assets and financial liabilities and leasehold assets and related liabilities. However, it is not practicable to provide a reasonable estimate of effects of the application of these standards until the Group performs a detailed review.

2.4 Consolidation

(a) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries are consistent with the policies adopted by the Group.

(b) Joint venture

A joint venture is a contractual arrangement whereby two or more parties undertake an economic activity which is subject to joint control. The Group’s investment in joint venture is reported using the proportionate consolidation method. The Group’s share of the joint venture’s assets and liabilities are classified according to the nature of the assets. The Group accounts for its share of the joint venture’s income and expenses and these are reported in the statement of comprehensive income.

2.5 Revenue

Where the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, revenue and costs are recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the construction activity at the end of the reporting period, as measured by the proportion that contract costs incurred for work performed to date bear to the estimated total contract costs. Variation in contract work and incentive payments are included to the extent that they have been agreed with the customer. Variations to contract and claims which are not yet formally certified by the client are also included to the extent that management believes that such amounts are recoverable from the customer based on the past and present experience of dealing with the customer.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED AND PARENT COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015 (continued)

29

Where the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is probable will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately.

2.6 Foreign currency

(a) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of the Group are measured and presented in Rial Omani being the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates.

(b) Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into Rial Omani at the exchange rate prevailing on the transaction date. Foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated into Rial Omani at the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date. Differences on exchange are dealt with in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets such as equities classified as available-for-sale are included in the fair value reserve in consolidated statement of comprehensive income. At the reporting date, the Group did not have any investments in such instruments.

(c) Group companies

The accounting records of the subsidiaries are maintained in UAE Dirhams (AED). The Rial Omani (RO) amounts included in the consolidated financial statements have been translated at an exchange rate of 0.105 Omani Rial to each AED for the statement of comprehensive income and the statement of financial position items, as the AED to RO exchange rate has effectively remained fixed during the year, both currencies being pegged to the US Dollar.

2.7 Income tax

Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax.

Current tax is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is calculated using the liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Temporary differences relating to the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit are not provided for. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised and is subsequently reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

The principal temporary differences arise from depreciation on property and equipment, provision for doubtful debts and provision for slow moving inventories.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

2.8 Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of property and equipment is their purchase price together with any incidental expenses that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. 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 establishment and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the financial year in which they are incurred.

Depreciation is charged to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of items of property and equipment. The estimated useful lives are:

Buildings and camp 5- 20 yearsMachinery and equipment 5 - 10 yearsVehicles 5 - 10 yearsFurniture, fixtures and office equipment 3 - 8 years Instrumentation and testing equipment 4 - 8 years

Freehold land is not depreciated as it is deemed to have an indefinite life.

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at each reporting date.

Where the carrying amount of an asset is greater than its estimated recoverable amount it is written down immediately to its recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals of property and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amounts and are taken into account in determining operating profit.

Interest costs on borrowings to finance the construction of property and equipment are capitalised during the period that is required to complete the asset.

2.9 Operating lease

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating lease. Payments made under operating lease are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income under general and administration expenses on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

2.10 Goodwill

Goodwill arising on acquisition of the business represents the excess of purchase consideration over the fair value ascribed to the net assets at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

2.11 Investment in subsidiary (at the Parent Company level)

Classification

A company is a subsidiary company, if Al Hassan Engineering Company SAOG has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights so as to obtain benefits from the investee company’s activities.

Valuation

Investment in subsidiary companies is stated at cost less any diminution in the value of the specific investment, which is other than temporary. Investment income is accounted for in the year in which entitlement is established.

2.12 Impairment

Financial assets

At the end of each reporting period, the management assesses if there is any objective evidence indicating impairment of the carrying value of financial assets or non-collectability of receivables. Impairment losses are determined as differences between the carrying amounts and the recoverable amounts and are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. The recoverable amounts represent the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate. Cash flows relating to short-term receivables are not discounted.

Non-financial assets

At the end of each reporting period, the management assesses if there is any indication of impairment of non-financial assets. If an indication exists, the management estimates the recoverable amount of the asset and recognises an impairment loss in the statement of comprehensive income. The management also assesses if there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised in prior years no longer exists or has reduced. The resultant impairment loss or reversals (except in case of goodwill) are recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income. The recoverable amount adopted is the higher of net realisable value or market value and its value in use.

2.13 Inventories

Inventories of materials are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Cost is determined on a weighted average basis and consists of the direct landed cost of materials. Net realisable value is the price at which inventories can be sold in the normal course of business after allowing for the costs of realisation. Provision is made where necessary for obsolete, slow moving and defective items. The liability for the goods in transit is recorded on the transfer of risks and rewards to the ownership of goods in favour of the Group.

2.14 Financial assets

The Group classifies its financial assets as loans and receivables. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the reporting date. These are classified as non-current assets. The Group’s loans and receivables comprise contract and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position (notes 2.15 and 2.16).

[For derivative financial instruments, please refer to note 2.21].

2.15 Contract and other receivables

Contract and other receivables originated by the Group are measured at cost. An allowance for credit losses of contract and other receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the amounts due.

Unbilled contract receivables on long term contracts is stated at the costs incurred and applicable on contracts to the end of the reporting period plus attributable profits estimated to be earned to the end of the reporting period based on the stage of contract completion, less provision for foreseeable losses and progress payments received and receivable. Cost comprises materials, labour, procurement and other expenses which are identifiable to contracts and allocation of other overheads.

32

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)2.15 Contract and other receivables (continued)

When a contract or other receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account for credit losses. The carrying values of contract and other receivables approximate to their fair values due to the short-term nature of those receivables.

2.16 Cash and cash equivalentsCash and cash equivalents comprise of bank balances and cash net of bank borrowings. Bank borrowings that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s and Parent Company’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the statement of cash flows.

2.17 End of service benefit and leave entitlements

End of service benefits are accrued in accordance with the terms of employment of the Group’s employees at the reporting date, having regard to the requirements of the Oman Labour Law 2003 as amended for the parent company, the UAE labour law as applicable to the subsidiaries and in accordance with IAS 19 ‘Employee Benefits’. Employee entitlements to annual leave and leave passage are recognised when they accrue to employees and an accrual is made for the estimated liability arising as a result of services rendered by employees up to the reporting date. These accruals are included in current liabilities, while that relating to end of service benefits is disclosed as a non-current liability.

Contributions to a defined contribution retirement plan and occupational hazard insurance for Omani employees in accordance with the Omani Social Insurances Law of 1991 are recognised as an expense in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Provision is made for employees’ terminal benefits in the subsidiary companies on the basis prescribed under the UAE labour law based on employees’ salaries and number of years of service.

2.18 Trade and other payable

Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

The Group presents as a liability the gross amount due to customers for contract work for all contracts in progress for which progress billings exceed costs incurred plus recognised profits (less recognised losses). This liability is included within ‘Trade and other payables’ as ‘Excess billings’.

Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Group.

2.19 Borrowings

Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

2.20 Operating segment

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses and whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Board of Directors to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance. The Group has only one reportable segment that of contracting.

2.21 Derivative financial instrumentsThe Group uses derivative financial instruments (forward foreign exchange contracts) to hedge its exposure to foreign currency fluctuations arising from commitments to purchase contract materials (asset hedges). If the derivative financial instruments qualify for special hedge accounting, they are accounted under hedge accounting principles. Otherwise they are accounted as trading instruments. All derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value.Gains or losses arising on subsequent measurement of derivative financial instruments that are asset hedges are recognised in other comprehensive income and classified as a ‘hedging reserve’ in the statement of changes in equity, to the extent they are considered effective. Gains or losses arising on subsequent measurement of other derivative financial instruments are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

2.22 Directors’ remunerationThe Parent Company follows the Sultanate of Oman’s Commercial Companies Law, 1974 (as amended), and other latest relevant directives issued by CMA, in regard to determination of the amount to be paid as Directors remuneration. Directors’ remuneration is charged to the statement of comprehensive income in the year to which it relates.

2.23 Dividend distributionThe Board of Directors recommend to the shareholders the dividend to be paid out of Parent Company’s profits. The Directors take into account appropriate parameters including the requirements of the Sultanate of Oman’s Commercial Companies Law, 1974 (as amended) while recommending the dividend. Dividend distribution to the Parent Company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Group’s and Parent Company’s financial statements only in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Parent Company’s shareholders.

3 Financial risk management

3.1 Financial risk factors

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, price risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. Risk management is carried out by the management under policies approved by the Board of Directors.

(a) Market risk

(i) Foreign exchange riskForeign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions or recognised assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency.The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures primarily with respect to US Dollar and Euros. Where it is considered appropriate, the Group uses forward contracts to minimise the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.The majority of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities are either denominated in local currency (Rial Omani) or currencies fixed against Rial Omani. Hence the management believes that there would not be a material impact on the profitability if these foreign currencies weaken or strengthen against the Omani Rial with all other variables held constant.

3 Financial risk management (continued)3.1 Financial risk factors (continued)(a) Market risk (continued)(ii) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises from the possibility of changes in interest rates and mismatches or gaps in the amount of assets and liabilities that mature or are re-priced in a given period.

Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the company to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings at a fixed rate expose the company to fair value interest rate risk. The Group is exposed to interest rate risk on its interest bearing assets and liabilities (bank balances, bank borrowings and term loans). The management manages the interest rate risk by constantly monitoring the changes in interest rates and availing lower interest bearing facilities.

At 31 December 2015, based on the level of interest bearing assets and liabilities, for a 0.5% change in the interest rate, the impact on the profit before taxation in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income will approximate to RO 239,245 (2014 - RO 155,562).

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss.

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, call deposits with banks as well as credit exposure to contract customers including outstanding debtors and committed transactions.

In case of banks, management deals with local and foreign banks with a minimum rating of P2 and credit risk is considered minimal. The stated rating is as per the global bank ratings by Moody’s Investors Service.

Credit risk on contract receivables is limited to their carrying values as the management regularly reviews these balances to assess recoverability and makes provision for balances whose recoverability is in doubt. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the statement of financial position. The Group has a significant concentration of credit risk, details of which are provided in note 16 (d) to the financial statements.

Although 90% (2014 - 88%) of the Group’s contract income is from 14 customers (2014 - 8 customers), the Group considers it is well positioned to carry out contracting work for other parties and that the business risk associated with concentration is manageable.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the company’s reputation.

The Group maintains sufficient facilities and bank balances and cash to meet the Group’s obligations as they fall due for payment.

The table below analyses the Group’s financial liabilities that will be settled on a net basis into relevant maturity grouping based on the remaining period at the reporting date to the contractual maturities date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances, as the impact of discounting is not significant. Balances due above twelve months also approximate to their carrying values as they carry commercial rates of interest.

3.2 Capital risk management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, in order to provide returns for members and benefits for other stakeholders, and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

The Group sets the amount of capital in proportion to risk and makes adjustments to it in the light of changes in economic conditions, the risk characteristics of the underlying assets, and covenants entered into with the providers of external debt. In order to maintain or adjust the level of equity, the Group adjusts the level of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares, or sell assets to reduce debt.

3 Financial risk management (continued)3.2 Capital risk management (continued)

The Group also ensures compliance with externally imposed capital requirements.

In the context of managing capital (equity), the Parent Company has covenanted with banks providing external debt to maintain specified debt to equity ratio. At the end of the reporting period, the actual debt to equity ratio was within the covenanted level, and the Parent Company does not therefore, anticipate that the covenant will require them to increase the level of capital (equity).

3.3 Fair value estimation

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities with a maturity of less than one year are assumed to approximate to their fair values. The fair value of the long term loan approximate to its carrying values as it carries a commercial rate of interest.

4 Critical accounting estimatesThe preparation of the financial statements, as per IFRS, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the reporting date and the resultant provisions and changes in fair value for the year. Such estimates are necessarily based on assumptions about several factors involving varying, and possibly significant, degrees of judgment and uncertainty and actual results may differ from management’s estimates resulting in future changes in estimated assets and liabilities.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

(a) Goodwill and investment in subsidiaries

The Board of Directors test annually whether goodwill and investment in subsidiaries have suffered any impairment in accordance with IAS 36, ‘Impairment of Assets’ which require the use of estimates.

(b) Revenue recognition

The Group uses the percentage of completion method in recognising its project revenues. Use of this method requires the Group to estimate revenues and costs over the remaining period of the projects. These estimates will, by definition, be seldom equal to the actual results. However, the deviations are not anticipated to be of a material nature as the estimates are based on historical experience, progress to date on contracts and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and are regularly evaluated. Claims totaling to RO 19.29 million (2014 – RO 8.4 million) which are not yet formally certified by the customer are included in the total contract value on open contracts at the reporting period and considered for revenue recognition, as management believes that such amounts are in the normal course of the business activity.

(c) Others

Other estimates that involve uncertainties and judgments which have significant effect on the financial statements include:· provision for slow moving inventories;· the margins of profit ultimately expected on long term contracts that is used to determine the

level of contract profit recognition; and· whether any liquidated damages will apply when there has been a delay in completion of

contracts and it is unsure as to which party is at fault. · depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives. The

calculation of useful lives is based on management’s assessment of various factors such as the operating cycles, the maintenance programs, and normal wear and tear using its best estimates.

11 (b) Leasehold land A subsidiary company entered into two operating lease agreements in respect of the land used for

construction of an office building. As per the terms of the lease agreements, the subsidiary has paid an up-front advance amounting to RO 840,000 [2014 – RO 840,000 (AED 8,000,000)]. The lease is valid until the year 2037. The up-front fee paid will be amortised on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

11 (c) Assets held-for-saleIn a meeting held on 6 October 2015, the Board of Directors decided to sell a plot of land in Ghala and management has started receiving offers from the third party buyers to purchase this asset. At the reporting date, the asset is classified as held-for-sale and recorded at lower of its carrying value and fair value.

12 GoodwillThe recoverable amount of the Group’s construction and engineering operations has been determined based on a value in use calculation which uses cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by the directors covering a five-year period, and a discount rate at 9% per annum. Cash flow beyond that five years period have been extrapolated using a steady 3% per annum growth rate. This growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the construction market in the Sultanate of Oman. The directors believe that any reasonably possible further change in the key assumptions on which recoverable amount is based would not cause the construction operations carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount.

Parent CompanyManagement has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the Board of Directors of the Parent Company that are used to make strategic decisions. The Board considers the business from a company level as the company is principally engaged in one segment which is electrical, mechanical, instrumentation and civil contracting. As the directors effectively look at only one company level segment, all relevant details are as set out in the statement of comprehensive income and statement of financial position.

32. Fair value of assets and liabilities

The management believes that the fair values of financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts in the date of the statement of net assets.

Fair value hierarchy

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of assets.

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3: techniques which use inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.

33. Capital management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and benefit other stake holders. The management’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The Group manages capital structure, by adjusting the amount paid as dividends, or increasing the paid up capital, to achive the target debt equity ratio.
