Coco Lanka PLC
CHAIRMAN’S REVIEW
I take great pleasure in welcoming you to the 22nd Annual General Meeting of Coco Lanka PLC and present the Annual Report of the Directors on the affairs of the Company and the Audited Accounts for the year ended 31st March 2012.
The Market
The year under review has been a challenging one given the vagaries of the stock market. The
Colombo Stock Market reflected this with negative returns in respect of the year under review against the backdrop of economic realignment after two years of growth in post war Sri Lanka. The key factor being the higher interest rates prevailing presently has shifted investor funds from equity investments to interest bearing instruments. The bear market sentiments resulted in the decline of 25% of the bench mark All Share Price Index and a decline of 28.8% of the Milanka Index during the period.
The Company
At Company level the turnover achieved was Rs 39.5 Mn (sale of shares was only Rs 8.8 Mn as against
Rs 775.8 Mn in the previous year) as against Rs 808Mn achieved in the previous year due to the prevailing sentiments in the Stock Market. This was the main reason as to why your Company made a profit of only Rs 11 Mn for the year ended 31st March 2012 as against the profit of Rs 230.5 Mn for the corresponding year. However at Group level your Company has recorded a profit of Rs 301.7 Mn for the year under review as against Rs 227.5 Mn we recorded in the corresponding year. The growth was 32.6%. We were able to achieve this, through the Agri business sector which was the single largest contributor.
The Future
We believe the long term development potential of Sri Lanka will eventually flow through the equity market where market capitalization to GDP is currently only 33% compared to more matured markets which can exceed 100%. During the year Coco Lanka PLC invested in a 50% shareholding in
Coco Hotels & Properties (Pvt) Ltd which is earmarked for a flag ship property development project in Colombo 3.
I express my gratitude to the management team and staff for their dedication, loyalty and hard work. I also thank my colleagues on the Board for providing valuable guidance and advice. It is also my duty to thank all the shareholders and stakeholders for their support and co-operation.
Dr S.R.Rajiyah
Chairman

Coco Lanka PLC
ENTERPRISE RISK MANAGEMENT
Risk management is an integral part of our business, since balancing risks against returns is a critical trade off decision we have to make every day when it comes to investment decision making. We have in place several measures to strengthen our risk management processes which are linked to our daily investment decisions. These include policies to mitigate business risks along with the upgrading of the support systems that enable easy monitoring and management risks.
We reviewed and refined our investment processes balancing rigor and consistency with responsiveness and flexibility. The aim was to lay a sound foundation to integrate our risk management activities as part and parcel of our operations.
Internal controls
The Company maintains a system of internal controls designed to provide a high degree of assurance regarding the effectiveness and efficiency of operations, the adequacy of safeguards for assets, the reliability of financial controls, and compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Business Risk
The business risk management is a dynamic process due to the constant change and complexity in the operating environment of the Group. The different business operations of the Group and their performance are subject to a variety of risk factors which are constantly monitored and evaluated by the management in order to respond effectively. The manufacturing facilities are maintained according to best international food manufacturing standards.
Competitive environment
Our businesses are highly competitive. Failure to compete with competitors on areas including price, product range, quality and service would have an adverse effect on the Group’s financial results. Hence we aim to have a broad appeal in price, range and format in a way that allows us to compete effectively in different markets.
People capabilities
Our greatest asset is our employees. It is critical to our success to attract, retain, develop and motivate the best people with the right capabilities at all levels of operations. We review our people and policies regularly and are committed to investing in development and incentives for our people. There are clear processes for understanding and responding to employees’ needs through HR initiatives, and communication of business developments.
Health and safety risks
The safety of our staff and customer is of paramount importance to us. We operate stringent health and safety processes in line with best practice in our manufacturing facilities, stores and offices.
IT systems and infrastructure
The business is dependent on efficient information technology (IT) systems. We recognize the essential role that IT plays across our operations in allowing us to trade efficiently through the implementation of effective IT solutions. We have extensive controls in place to maintain the integrity and efficiency of our IT infrastructure and to ensure consistency of delivery, and all relevant staff is effectively engaged to mitigate IT related risks through effective policy and procedures as well as increased awareness.
Interest rate and Exchange rate risk
It is the Company’s objective to limit its exposure to changes in interest and exchange rates while retaining the opportunity to benefit. Accordingly the Group manages interest and exchange rate fluctuations with an appropriate mix of fixed and variable rate debts, forward contracts through a centralized treasury management function.

10

Market risk
A broad definition of market risk is exposure to adverse movements in the securities markets for both equity and fixed income investments, which can result in value loss as well as variations in the anticipated returns from those securities. All financial institutions face market risks, created by changes in the macro environment related to political factors, national security economic management and globalization influences which have an impact on systematic risk factors such as interest rates, currency parity, inflation, and availability of credit. Therefore, understanding market risks requires considering multiple dimensions and complexity in the macro environment.
Market risks are inherent in every security and are thus collectively considered at the portfolio level to take into account the asset allocation decisions of the portfolio. Thus market risks affecting a particular class of security are mitigated by switching to asset classes that are assessed to be less risky in a particular scenario.
General Securities Risk
Any trading in securities carries inherent investment risks, associated with the entity issuing those securities, in particular the price of value of any security can and does fluctuate and may even become valueless, resulting in possible loss not only of returns and profits but even also of all or part of the principal sums invested. These risks arise as a result of the overall risks faced by the issuing entity which affects its ability to provide a return to the investors holding the securities issued by it. Particularly in the case of equities past performance of any investment is not necessary indicative of future performance.
At Coco Lanka PLC our approach focuses on the fact that there is no substitute for fundamental individual security assessment. Our portfolio management and investment selection process is designed to maximize the risk/return tradeoff to our shareholders and we employee a bottom up investment selection process. Our internal research has added value over time to our choice of investments. Prospective investments are selected from fundamental analysis and contact with corporate management of the issuing company through company visits. Once an investment is made, a continuous process of monitoring the performance of that investment is adopted.
Liquidity risk
Under certain market conditions, an investor may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position.
This can occur when trading is suspended by the exchange on which a security is listed or when poor market sentiment dries up investor interest in an investment. In addition, there may not be a ready market for certain investments due to low levels of publicly traded quantities. Some investments will have to be held to maturity. Proper information for determining the value of certain investments may also not be available under such circumstances of low liquidity.
At Coco Lanka PLC we mitigate this risk by investing in companies with a reasonable free float and where securities are heavily traded. Further, by limiting the portfolio’s buy list to highly traded blue chips, the risk of liquidity can be mitigated.
Legal compliance
The legal support service to Coco Lanka PLC management comes through the group legal department which ensures that the Coco Lanka PLC complies with all legal and regulatory provisions applicable to it. The legal function proactively identifies and sets up appropriate systems and processes for legal and regulatory compliance in respect of all our investments. Similarly, the internal audit function of the Group ensures the safeguarding of company assets and recommends process improvements in areas where process control failures are noted.

11

Regulatory Compliance
The operations of the Coco Lanka PLC come within the rules and regulations applicable to all market participants operating in the equity and debt markets of Sri Lanka, as well as the regulatory provisions applicable to companies listed on the CSE and regulations applicable to securities trading set by the
Securities and Exchange Commission of Sri Lanka. Our systems and processes are structured to satisfy the criteria set by these regulations, and staff are constantly kept aware of the compliance needs imposed by these regulations. An independent compliance officer undertakes responsibility for maintaining a check on the overall compliance process.
Coco Lanka PLC emphasizes professionalism in the manner in which the staff interacts with clients as well as market intermediaries, since it is vital for maintaining the company’s standing within the investment community. Staffs have signed a code of ethics at the time of recruitment by the company, which lays down professional standards of conduct expected of them. Structures to avoid conflicts of interest and compromising of best practices are set up. Staff education covers these areas of practice and declarations by the staff members on compliance and personal equity trading are mandatory. Operational risks
We manage operational risks by identifying areas of risk, formulating plans for their management, promoting best practices, implementing internal controls and systems and monitoring compliance.
Operational risks mainly cover the areas of system failure, continuity of decision making, dealing with contingencies and ensuring efficiency in operations and correct application of recommended management practices.
Issues Pertaining to Employees and Industrial Relationship
The Board of Directors reviews all the issues with regard to employees and Industrial Relation which affect the performance of the Group. Coco Lanka Group takes considerable amount of steps to ensure employees are satisfied at all the levels and their issues are addressed in order to retain talented employees. A well structured grievance handling system is in place to handle the grievance of employees at all levels. We also ensure proper industrial relationships with all the governmental agencies.

The company and its subsidiaries have a common financial period which ends on 31st March.
2.1.1Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are those entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has the power directly or indirectly to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The Financial Statements of Subsidiaries are included in the consolidated Financial Statements when control effectively commences and until control effectively ceases.
The Group uses the purchase method of accounting to account for business combinations.
The cost of an acquisition is measured at the fair value of the asset given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition.
The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill, and tested for impairment annually. The excess of the value of the net assets of the subsidiary companies over the purchase price or consideration at the date of acquisition where the control is obtained is treated as excess on acquisition. Such excess is directly recognised in the income statement.
Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealized gains arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in full in preparing the consolidated financial statements.
Unrealized losses are also eliminated.
Upon the loss of control, the Group de-recognizes the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any minority interests and other components of equity related to the Subsidiary.
Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognized in profit or loss. If the
Group retains any interest in the previous Subsidiary, then such interest is measured at carrying amount at the date that control is lost. Subsequently it is accounted for as an equity-accounted invested or as an available-for-sale financial asset depending on the level of influence retained.
Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. In such circumstances the carrying amounts of the controlling and non controlling interests will be adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount by which the non controlling interests are adjusted, and the fair value of the consideration paid or received, will be recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the parent.
25

Coco Lanka PLC
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2.1.2Minority Interests
Non-controlling interests represent the portion of profit or loss and net assets in subsidiaries not held by the Group and are presented separately in the Consolidated
Income Statement and within equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, separately from the amounts attributable to equity holders of the parent.
2.2 Income Tax Expense
2.2.1Current Taxes
Current Tax is the expected tax payable / recoverable on the taxable income (if any) for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the Balance Sheet date and any adjustments to tax payable/receivable in respect of previous years.
Current tax payable also includes any tax liability arising from the declaration of dividends. The provision for Income Tax is based on the profit for the financial year adjusted for tax purposes in accordance with the Inland Revenue Act No. 10 of 2006 and subsequent amendments thereto.
2.2.2Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rate that is expected to be applied to the temporary difference when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.
A Deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
2.2.3Withholding Tax on Dividends
Dividend distributed out of taxable profit of the local companies attracts a 10% deduction at source and is not available for set off against the tax liability of the
Company. Withholding tax that arises from the distribution of dividends by the
Company is recognized at the same time as the liability to pay the related dividend is recognized. 2.3 Borrowing Cost
All Borrowing Costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
The amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization is determined in accordance with SLAS 20, “Borrowing Costs”.

ASSETS AND BASES OF THEIR VALUATION
2.5 Property, Plant & Equipment
2.5.1Recognition and measurement
Items of Property, Plant & Equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
The cost of Property, Plant & Equipment is the cost of acquisition or construction together with any incidental expenses thereon.
Expenditure incurred for the purpose of acquiring, extending or improving of a permanent nature by means of which to carry on the business or to increase the earning capacity of the business have been treated as capital expenditure.
When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment, and is recognized net within other income/ other expenses in profit or loss.
2.5.2Premium paid on Leasehold Land
The premium paid by the subsidiary for leasehold land represents prepaid rental charges which are amortized over 50 years, commencing from the second year of operation. 2.5.3Immature and Mature Plantations
The cost of replanting and new planting are classified as immature plantation up to the time of harvesting the crop.
Further, the general charges incurred on the plantation are apportioned based on the labour days spent on respective Replanting and New planting and capitalized on the immature areas. The remaining portion of the general charges is expensed in the accounting period on which it is incurred.
The cost of the immature coming in to bearing are transferred to mature plantation and depreciated over their useful life period.

Coco Lanka PLC
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2.5.4 Impairment
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amounts. A cash generating unit is the smallest identifiable asset group that generates cash flows that largely are independent from other assets and groups. Impairment losses are recognized in the income statement.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit is the greater of its use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the assets or cash generating unit.
2.5.5 Depreciation
Depreciation is not charged on Land. Depreciation on all other Property, Plant &
Equipment is provided on the straight line basis to write off the cost/valuation over their estimated useful lives. The annual rates used for this purpose which are consistent with those of the previous year are:
%
Buildings
Motor Vehicles
Plant, Machinery & Others
Office Equipment

2.6 Investment Property
2.6.1 Classification
Investment property is properly held either to earn rental income, for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes.
Investment property is measured at cost on initial recognition and subsequently at fair value with any change therein recognized in profit or loss. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the investment property. The cost of self-constructed investment property includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the investment property to a working condition for their intended use and capitalized borrowing costs.
When the use of a property changes such as that it is reclassified as property, plant, equipment, its fair value at the date of reclassification becomes its cost for subsequent accounting. When the use of a property changes from owner-occupied to investment property, the property is re measured to fair value and reclassified as investment property. Any gain arising on re measurement is recognized in profit or loss to the extent that it reverses a previous impairment loss on the specific property, with any remaining gain recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in the revaluation reserve in equity. Any loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Where the group companies occupy a significant portion of the investment property of a subsidiary such as investment properties, are treated as property, plant and equipment in the consolidated Financial Statements, Accounted for in accordance with SLAS 18 (Revised 2005) – Property, Plant and Equipment.

...This paper is an analysis of the closing of Speedy Motors Company's assembly plant in Eastland, Michigan and what might have been done differently. Speedy Motors Company (SMC) gave less than a month notice before they laid off nearly 2,000 workers and closed the facility. This facility had been providing jobs for the community for over 20 years.
