Cebu Holdings, Inc. (CHI) is a publicly listed company engaged in real property ownership,
marketing, management and development. It was registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on 09 December 1988, with an authorized capitalization of P1.0 Billion.
CHI is an affiliate company of Ayala Land, Inc. (47.26%). Other partners include Santiago
Land Development (13.21%), a wholly-owned real estate subsidiary of the Bank of the Philippine

The company owns and manages the Cebu Business Park (CBP), a 50-hectare business and
commercial subdivision in Cebu City and to date the single largest urban development project in
Southern Philippines.
Serving as the centerpiece of the CBP is Ayala Center Cebu, the preferred shopping and
entertainment destination of the Visayas and Mindanao. True to its commitment of introducing the new
Cebuano cosmopolitan lifestyle, Ayala Center Cebu opened its Expansion Building of 5,800 sqm in
June 2007. It introduces to the market 50 new concepts featuring leading foreign and popular local
brands, an IT zone and a Supermarket brand for the AB Upscale in a very convenient location.
Separately, the Lagoon Redevelopment known to be the Greenbelt of Cebu is in full blown

pioneered the development of high-rise residential and office condos in Cebu. So far CHI developed
two office condominiums-Cebu Holdings Center and Ayala Life-FGU Center Cebu (sold out in 2002)
and two residential condominiums Park Tower I (bestseller in 1996) and Park Tower II.
The Company also developed the City Sports Club Cebu (CSCC), an exclusive urban resort
equipped with state-of-the-art health and fitness equipment. The club is now fully operational. This
project is in partnership with Ayala Land, Inc. In 2004, CSCC signed reciprocity agreements with
American Club in Singapore and United Services Recreation Club in Hongkong.
CBP is also the site of the Cebu City Marriott Hotel, the first businessman's hotel managed by
world-renowned Marriott International in Visayas-Mindanao.
In 2005, CHI launched seaside residential development Amara, in partnership with Cebu

-1-

46-hectare residential haven located in Barangay Catarman, Liloan, broke sales records when Phase
1 was sold out just a few weeks after it was launched in July 2006. Having pioneered the trend in
seaside development, Amaras Phase 3 sales, based on the 2007 External Customer Satisfaction
survey, cites word of mouth as highest source of information, maintains a solid reputation that keeps it
in a position of leadership. Despite having been launched late in the year, the markets excitement for
Amara garnered 29 spot cash payments on day of launch which was on October 18. On the same
day, Amara enjoyed 48% initial reservations. A total of fifty-six (56) lots were sold at Amara Ph3 in
2007. Amara is envisioned to be a community of seaside neighborhoods within a master-planned
residential haven. It will offer superior values in product features, amenities and value appreciation
with the Ayala trademark.
A CHI subsidiary-Cebu Property Ventures and Development Corporation (CPVDC), has also
developed a 24-hectare property not far from the CBP. This project is called Asiatown I.T. Park.
The project obtained accreditation from the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) as an
IT Park in 2000. The PEZA accreditation is the first such distinction accorded a property development
project in the Visayas and Mindanao. (Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo signed Presidential
Proclamation No. 12 on 27 February 2001 declaring the CCTC-IT Park as a Special Economic Zone).
Asiatown I.T. Park is now host to BPOs and global I.T firms which have moved in the
Companys eOffice One, occupying a combined area of 11,180 sqm.
Also set to open its doors by the second quarter of 2008, would be the retail development in
AITP named as The Walk. It is a small retail strip that would serve as a recharging and
decompressing zone for the BPO employees working at the Call Centers located in Asiatown IT Park.
The magnitude and significance of its projects make CHI the leading real estate company in
Cebu; a positive contribution towards the attainment of its mission as part of Ayala Land's VisayasMindanao Division - to become the premier multi-lined real estate organization in Vis-Min and it
continues to create landmarks, set standards and build lasting relationships with its customers. The

Cebu Insular Hotel Company, Inc. (37% owned affiliate)


Cebu City Marriott Hotel. The company was incorporated in April 6, 1995
with the primary purpose of hotel development and management. In September
1996, the Company began work on the 303-room businessmans hotel called the
Cebu City Marriott Hotel. It is situated within the superblock of CBP and a walking
distance from ACC and the nearby business establishments. The project is owned
by Cebu Insular Hotel Company, Inc., a 63%-37% joint venture between Ayala
Hotels, Inc. and the Company.
In January 1997, CHI and AHI announced the appointment of Marriott
International as manager and operator of the hotel. Marriott International is one of
the worlds largest hotel chains with over 1,200 establishments in its portfolio
including properties in the United States and in 33 other countries.
Cebu City Marriott Hotel was formally opened in February, 1998 amidst
uncertainties in the tourism market. Even in its infancy, the hotel acquired a market
niche with its own distinctive brand of service. It is fast becoming a preferred
destination of transient businessmen and the favorite venue for conferences, parties
and banquets. After a year of operation, the Cebu City Marriott Hotel ranked first in
guest satisfaction surveys among Marriott hotels in Asia Pacific, and second
worldwide. In 1999, Cebu City Marriott Hotel was cited as number one in market
share among city hotels in Cebu and highest in revenue per available room, twice as
much compared to its nearest competitors.
The company posted total revenues of P414 million, P432 million and P397
million, for the years 2007, 2006 and 2005 respectively. During the same period the
company posted a net income of P64.1 million, P73.1 million and P64.5 million,
respectively.

venture was Glicos Imaginature. It was registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on January 31, 1994, with an authorized capital of P100 Million and a
subscribed & paid up capital of P70 Million.
In its first year of operations as Glicos Imaginature, the business was not
doing well. Fun Corporation sold its shares to Cebu Holdings Incorporated thus the
latter gaining control over the company. Cebu Leisure Company, Inc. is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Cebu Holdings Incorporated.

- 11 -

Cebu Leisure Company, Inc changed the concept of Glicos Imaginature into
an Entertainment Center. The first mall to have an entertainment (including cinema)
and food center within its premises. The new Ayala Food & Entertainment Center
was launched in August 18, 2001. It has definitely captured the market being the top
destination for entertainment in Cebu. It redefined the lifestyle of the Cebuanos and
made Ayala Center Cebu as the trail blazer not only in shopping but also in dining &
entertainment.
The family food to share zone continues to be the favorite destination for
families and office workers achieved a sales growth of 11%. Food Choices also
registered a double digit sales growth of 16% versus 2006. Ayala Cinemas posted
theater occupancy of 18%, 1% pt. higher than last year.
Cebu Leisure Company, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, generated

CBP Theater Management, Inc., founded on February 1, 1994 is still in the preoperating stage.
(iii) Distribution Method;
The Companys Sales and Marketing Department and its accredited real
estate brokers handle the selling/distribution of the Companys product.
(iv) Status of Any Publicly-Announced Product;
The company has no new products other than the above mentioned Cebu
Business Park (CBP) and Asiatown I.T. Park office lots, Park Tower 1&2
condominiums, sports club shares, Amara residential lots, e-office, GRV house & lot
units, AITP Retail (The Walk), and eBloc (BPO Office Building).
(v) Competitive Business Condition;
CHIs Position in Cebu Real Estate Market
The increasing investors confidence, the rise in tourist arrivals by 29%, and the
ranking of Cebu as the leading outsourcing destination (as taken from a report by
McKinsey and Company, an international management consulting firm) has given
Cebu Holdings, Inc. a fair share in Cebus economic growth as evidenced in the
strength of its performance for 2007.
Being committed to provide total customer satisfaction, quality and customer-driven
products, the companys portfolio of products from residential to commercial projects
has continually increased its momentum as it has maintained the position of being a
market leader in Cebus real estate industry.
The successful launch of Amara Phase 3 last October 18 has again made Amara a
market leader in the high-end residential development category, with the sale of 47
lots on the first day of selling, for the third consecutive year since its launch in 2005. It
grabbed 54% of the relative market share despite entry of aggressive new players like
Landco Pacifics Monterrazas de Cebu and Robinson Lands Blue Coast Residences.

- 12 -

The percentage of repeat buyers for Amara Phase 3, which is at 39% is a strong
indication of the markets confidence and positive association with our products.
Furthermore, the 2007 External Customer Survey showed the over-all rate went up
from 8.41 to 8.58 in a scale of 1-10 with 10 as the highest.
There is an increased demand for office space in Cebu Business Park as evidenced
by a continuing buildup in CBP with recently completed buildings like Pioneer Tower,
8990 Housing and Development Building, Cebu Tower and Lexmark Building 2 and a
reported average of 90% occupancy rate of buildings in the area as of November
2007 where most of the new buildings are designed for IT and ITES locators with
leased spaces.
Ongoing construction in CBP includes the residential condominium development by
Fastem, the Lexmark Building 1 and Creativo, an eight-storey building by Manila
based Momentum Construction Development Corporation. Bigfoot Palm, Inc., a
company owned by Michael Gleissner who also operates several IT businesses in
Cebu in addition to Bigfoot Film Academy in Mactan, finally purchased 2 parcels in the
resort/hotel block with a total of 21,000sqm.
Residential condominium is fast becoming an emerging market with the increase
supply in the category. Majority of the condominium developments are city-based and
within 5km radius from CBP. Among the active major players are City Light Garden
Towers 3 and 4 by Synthech Properties, Inc. The newest development to join the
category is Grand Cenia Condotel and Residences by Filinvest Land, Inc.
For the past years, demand for proprietary club shares continues to decline. Sales of
propriety clubshares are mainly active in the secondary market.
The spurt of the IT/ITES industry in the country and with Cebu being considered as a
prime destination for BPO locators for both local and international, Asiatown IT Park
(AITP) is bracing to the challenge in addressing the demand for office spaces. The
most recently completed building, the i2 building, has added 17, 124sqm to the total
AITP floor area and has provided space for the expansion of local and international
BPOs and IT companies like Convergys, 123 Ten, Inc., Micro D International,
eTelecare and Cordia.
The ongoing construction of eBloc, which was launched last November and the
newest project of CPVDC in partnership with ALI, shall be the biggest facilities
provider with 20,000sqm of gross leasable space. Several prospects have already
lined up for eBloc and these include NCR, Globe Telecom, Convergys, IBM and
Teletech, among others.
In 2007, the team has surpassed its target and was able to sell an unprecedented
total of eight lots in AITP, with 5 out of 8 lots sold through in-house efforts, increasing
profit margin with no commissions paid. All of the buyers of these 8 lots are repeat
buyers.
With future developments, AITP has the potential to strengthen our bid of making
Cebu the BPO capital in the Philippines next to Metro Manila.
CHI is committed to continuously grow its portfolio of excellent real estate products
and services in the region. Its strong business performance is backed by a keen
understanding of the market complemented by the experience and expertise of its
parent company, Ayala Land Inc and prudent and competent management of its
business affairs by its own professional management team.

Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet
commitments associated with financial instruments. Liquidity risk may result from either the
inability to sell financial assets quickly at their fair values; or the counterparty failing on
repayment of a contractual obligation; or inability to generate cash inflows as anticipated.
The Group monitors its cash flow position, debt maturity profile and overall liquidity position in
assessing its exposure to liquidity risk. The Group maintains a level of cash and cash
equivalents deemed sufficient to finance operations and to mitigate the effects of fluctuation in
cash flows. Accordingly, its loan maturity profile is regularly reviewed to ensure availability of
funding through an adequate amount of credit facilities with financial institutions.
As of December 31, 2007, current ratio increased to 2:1, with cash and cash equivalents of
P
= 904.8 million accounting for 48% of the total current assets, and resulting in a net working
capital of P
= 887.8 million.
Overall, the Groups funding arrangements are designed to keep an appropriate balance
between equity and debt, to give financing flexibility while continuously enhancing the Groups
businesses.

Foreign Currency Risk


Majority of the Groups transactions are denominated in PHP. Financial assets and financing
facilities extended to the Group were mainly denominated in Philippine Peso. As such, the
Groups foreign currency risk is minimal.
The Groups foreign currency denominated monetary assets consist of cash and cash
equivalent amounting to US$2.0 million (P
= 83.2 million) as of December 31, 2007 and
US$1.9 million (P
= 93.0 million) as of December 31, 2006. In translating the foreign currencydenominated monetary assets and liabilities into peso amounts, the exchange rates used
were
P
= 41.28 to US$1.00 and P
= 49.132 to US$1.00, the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rates
as at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in
the US dollar rate, with all variables held constant, of the Groups profit before tax (due to
changes in the dollar denominated cash and cash equivalent) and the Groups equity.

Interest Rate Risk


The Groups interest rate exposure management policy centers on reducing the Groups
overall interest expense and exposure to changes in interest rates. Changes in market
interest rates relate primarily to the Groups interest-bearing debt obligations with floating
interest rate as it can cause a change in the amount of interest payments.
The Group manages its interest rate risk by leveraging on its premier credit rating and
maintaining a debt portfolio mix of both fixed and floating interest rates. The portfolio mix is a
function of historical, current trend and outlook of interest rates, volatility of short-term interest
rates, the steepness of the yield curve and degree of variability of cash flows.

Ayala Center Cebu, on its 12th year, has set the shopping & dining standards higher as it
unfolds its expansion and development plans for the ever-dynamic and vibrant Cebuano lifestyle. In
addition, Ayala Center Cebu achieved yet another accolade as it obtained international recognition for
Quality (ISO 9002), Environment (ISO 14000) & Occupational Health & Safety (OHSAS 18000),
making Ayala Center Cebu the first mall in the country to be certified in these three international
standards and elevating Ayala Center Cebu among the top malls. 2006 is the year that Ayala Center
Cebu made the Cebuano hold their breaths as it revealed its expansion and development plans for the
mall and garden facilities. These milestones have created much excitement and have further
cemented Ayala Center Cebus reputation as the trailblazer in shopping & dining concepts.
Also, ongoing is the malls re-zoning program which aims to refine product offerings. This
year, entry of new popular foreign (IZOD, Anne Klein, Lacoste Footwear, Forward & Scoop) and local
concepts (Blued, Brat Pack) continue to give a wide variety of choices for our shoppers. Ayala Center
Cebu also served as fertile ground for promising local concepts in shopping & dining (What A Girl
Wants, What A Girl Wants for Her Man, La Maison & Wheats N Greens). Outlet relocations (Bossini,
Chris Sports, Tamiya, Rusty Lopez, Mendrez, Rai-Rai Ken, Persian Palate) have also continued to
bring concepts to where their markets ply giving more convenience to the shoppers while strategically
regulating traffic flow around the mall. This year the Ayala Food & Entertainment Center conversion to
a family food to share zone was completed. Now fully leased out and with a more cohesive &
comprehensive mix of Chinese, Filipino & International cuisines sales have posted a healthy growth of
31%. It has now become a favorite destination for families and office workers alike.
Increasing the refreshing appeal of the mall is the completion of the mall repainting and carts
& kiosks rearrangement which invigorated the mall common areas. Currently, there is an on-going
program to improve the visual appeal of the mall perimeter areas.
The year 2006 saw lifestyle destination Ayala Center Cebu showcase a variety of top acts
from top local bands and international hitmakers, to provide more than just a satisfying shopping
experience for its loyal patrons. Mallwide Sales anchored on high traffic events continued to rake in an
average of 20% sales growth for merchants. 2006 also saw Ayala Center Cebu as the preferred mall
for 3rd party blockbuster events such as ABS CBN shows and media forums, and embassy cultural
events like the Japanese Taiko Tambol, Netherlands World Press Exhibit, and Portuguese Cultural
Dancers.
Keeping in mind the importance of the foreign and domestic tourists as a secondary target
market, ACCs Tourist Incentive Program was launched in full force with the opening of the Turista
Desk at the South Surface Entry. With over 21,000 registered tourists, it has tracked and recorded
total tourist sales of 2.6M with an average spending of P918, in just over a few months time. This
focus and added service earned ACC a Cebu Provincial Council Resolution proclaiming ACC as a
Tourist Friendly Mall.
Continuously reaffirming its commitment to its Customer is First policy, mall administration
constantly endeavors to improve mall facilities and services not only for its shoppers but also for its
merchants. This year Ayala Center Cebu opened a new and bigger PUJ and V-Hire terminal.
Boasting of bigger capacity, additional routes and covered walkways, it has provided for a much more
enjoyable and convenient arrival for our PUJ riding patrons.

compliance of the Board of Directors and top level management with its Manual of
Corporate Governance consists of a Customer Satisfaction Survey which is filled up by
the various functional groups indicating the compliance rating of certain institutional units
and their activities. The evaluation process also includes a Board Performance
Assessment which is accomplished by the Board of Directors indicating the compliance
ratings. The above are submitted to the Compliance Officer who issues the required
certificate of compliance with the Companys Corporate Governance Manual to the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
b. To ensure good governance, the Board establishes the vision, strategic objectives, key
policies, and procedures for the management of the Company, as well as the mechanism
- 37 -

for monitoring and evaluating Managements performance. The Board also ensures the
presence and adequacy of internal control mechanisms for good governance.
c.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Basis of Preparation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared on a historical cost basis.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Philippine Peso, and all values are rounded to the nearest
thousand (P
= 000) except when otherwise indicated. The Groups functional currency is Philippine Peso.
Statement of Compliance
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in compliance with Philippine Financial
Reporting Standards (PFRS).
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group as of December 31, 2007 and
2006 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. The financial statements of the
subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the Company, using consistent accounting policies.
All intra-company balances and transactions, including income, expenses and dividends, are eliminated in full. Profits
and losses from intra-company transactions that are recognized in assets are eliminated in full.

-2Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and
continue to be consolidated until the date such control ceases.
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and the following whollyowned and majority-owned subsidiaries:

The excess of the Companys cost of investment in CPVDC over its proportionate share in the underlying net assets
at date of acquisition was identified to, and thus allocated to Subdivision land for sale and Land and improvements
accounts in the consolidated balance sheets. It is amortized in proportion to the area of lots (in square meters) sold
by CPVDC.
Minority interests represent the portion of profit or loss and net assets in CPVDC and AiO not held by the Group and
are presented separately in the consolidated statement of income and consolidated statement of changes in equity
and within equity in the consolidated balance sheets, separately from the equity attributable to the Parent Company.
Changes in Accounting Policies
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except as follows:
PFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, and the complementary amendment to PAS 1, Presentation of Financial
Statements: Capital Disclosures (effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2007)
PFRS 7 introduces new disclosures to improve the information about financial instruments. It requires the disclosure
of qualitative information about exposure to risks arising from financial instruments, including specified minimum
disclosures about credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk, including sensitivity analysis to market risk. It replaces
disclosure requirements in PAS 32, Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation and PAS 30, Disclosure in the
Financial Statements of Banks and Similar Financial Institutions. It is applicable to all entities that report under PFRS.
The amendment to PAS 1 introduces disclosures about the level of an entitys capital and how it manages capital.
The Group adopted the amendment to the transition provisions of PFRS 7, as approved by the Financial Reporting
Standards Councils, which gives transitory relief with respect to the presentation of comparative information for the
new risk disclosures about the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments. Accordingly, the Group
does not need to present comparative information for the disclosures required by paragraphs 31-42 of PFRS 7,
unless the disclosure was previously required under PAS 30 or PAS 32. The adoption of PFRS 7 and amendment to
PAS 1 resulted in additional disclosures, which are included throughout the consolidated financial statements. These
disclosures include presenting the different classes of loans and receivables (see Note 5), rollforward of allowance for
impairment losses (see Note 5), Groups capital management (see Note 22), credit quality of financial assets (see
Note 22), aging of past due but not impaired financial assets (see Note 22), and sensitivity analysis as to changes in
interest and foreign exchange rates (see Note 22).

-3Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 9 - Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives


IFRIC 9 states that the date to assess the existence of an embedded derivative is the date that an entity first becomes
a party to the contract, with reassessment only if there is a change to the contract that significantly modifies the cash
flows. As the Group has no embedded derivative requiring separation from the host contract, the Interpretation has
no impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Future Changes in Accounting Policies
The Group has not applied the following PFRS and Philippine Interpretations which are not yet effective for the year
ended December 31, 2007:
PAS 23, Borrowing Cost (effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2009)
The standard has been revised to require capitalization of borrowing costs when such cost relate to a qualifying asset.
A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or
sale. There will be no significant change in the Groups policy in accounting for borrowing costs.
PFRS 8, Operating Segments (effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2009)
This PFRS adopts a management approach to reporting segment information. PFRS 8, will replace PAS 14,
Segment Reporting, and is required to be adopted only by entities whose debt or equity instruments are publicly
traded, or are in the process of filing with the SEC for purposes of issuing any class of instruments in a public market.
The Group will apply PFRS 8 in 2009 and expects that the adoption of this standard would not significantly modify the
Groups segment reporting disclosures.
Amendment to PAS 1, Amendment on Statement of Comprehensive Income
This Amendment will become effective January 1, 2008. In accordance with the amendment to PAS 1, the statement
of changes in equity shall include only transactions with owners, while all non-owner changes will be presented in
equity as a single line with details included in a separate statement. Owners are defined as holders of instruments
classified as equity.
In addition, the amendment to PAS 1 provides for the introduction of a new statement of comprehensive income that
combines all items of income and expense recognized in the consolidated statement of income together with other
comprehensive income. The revisions specify what is included in other comprehensive income, such as gains and
losses on available-for-sale assets, actuarial gains and losses on defined benefit pension plans and changes in the
asset revaluation reserve. Entities can choose to present all items in one statement, or to present two linked
statements, a separate statement of income and a statement of comprehensive income. The Group will assess the
impact of this standard on its current manner of reporting items of income and expenses.
Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 13, Customer Loyalty Programmes
This Interpretation will become effective January 1, 2009. The Interpretation addresses accounting by the entity that
grants award credits to its customers. This Interpretation applies to customer loyalty award credits that: (a) an entity
grants to its customers as part of a sales transaction, i.e. a sale of goods, rendering of services or use by a customer
of entity assets; and (b) subject to meeting any further qualifying conditions, the customers can redeem in the future
for free or discounted goods or services. This Interpretation will not have a significant impact on the Groups
consolidated financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash includes cash on hand and in banks. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily
convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less from dates of placements and
that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Financial Assets and Liabilities
Financial assets and liabilities are recognized initially at fair value. Transaction costs are included in the initial
measurement of all financial assets and liabilities, except for financial instruments measured at fair value through
profit or loss (FVPL).

-4The Group recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability in the balance sheet when it becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument. In the case of a regular way purchase or sale of financial assets, recognition
and derecognition, as applicable, is done using the settlement date accounting.
Financial assets in the scope of PAS 39 are classified as either financial assets at FVPL, loans and receivables, heldto-maturity financial assets, or available-for-sale (AFS) financial assets, as appropriate. Financial liabilities are
classified as either financial liabilities at FVPL or other financial liabilities. The Groups financial assets and financial
liabilities are of the nature of loans and receivables and other financial liabilities, respectively.
Determination of fair value
The fair value for financial instruments traded in active markets at the balance sheet date is based on their quoted
market price or dealer price quotations (bid price for long positions and ask price for short positions), without any
deduction for transaction costs. When current bid and asking prices are not available, the price of the most recent
transaction provides evidence of the current fair value as long as there has not been a significant change in economic
circumstances since the time of the transaction.
For all other financial instruments not listed in an active market, the fair value is determined by using appropriate
valuation techniques. Valuation techniques include net present value techniques, comparison to similar instruments
for which market observable prices exist, options pricing models, and other relevant valuation models.
Day 1 profit
Where the transaction price in a non-active market is different to the fair value from other observable current market
transactions in the same instrument or based on a valuation technique whose variables include only data from
observable market, the Group recognizes the difference between the transaction price and fair value (a Day 1 profit)
in the consolidated statement of income unless it qualifies for recognition as some other type of asset. In cases
where use is made of data which is not observable, the difference between the transaction price and model value is
only recognized in the consolidated statement of income when the inputs become observable or when the instrument
is derecognized. For each transaction, the Group determines the appropriate method of recognizing the Day 1 profit
amount.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are nonderivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in
an active market. Such assets are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and
losses are recognized in consolidated statement of income when the loans and receivables are derecognized or
impaired, as well as through the amortization process. This accounting policy relates to the consolidated balance
sheet caption Cash and cash equivalents and Receivables.
After initial measurement, the loans and receivables are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective
interest rate method, less allowance for impairment. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount
or premium on acquisition and fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. The amortization is included
in the Interest income account in the consolidated statement of income. The losses arising from impairment of such
loans and receivables are recognized in the consolidated statement of income.
Other financial liabilities
Other financial liabilities are financial liabilities not designated at FVPL where the substance of the contractual
arrangement results in the Group having an obligation either to deliver cash or another financial asset to the holder, or
to satisfy the obligation other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash. After initial measurement, other
financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Amortized
cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on the issue and fees that are an integral part of the
effective interest rate.
This accounting policy applies primarily to the Groups accounts payable and accrued expenses, bank loans, longterm debt and other obligations that meet the above definition (other than liabilities covered by other accounting
standards, such as income tax payable).

-5Customers Deposits
Customers deposits are measured initially at fair value. After initial recognition, customers deposits are subsequently
measured at amortized cost using effective interest method.
For deposits, the difference between the cash received and its fair value is deferred (included in Customers deposit
and deferred credits in the consolidated balance sheet) and amortized using the straight-line method under the
Rental income account in the consolidated statement of income.
Derecognition of Financial Assets and Liabilities
Financial assets
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a group of financial assets) is derecognized when: (a) the rights to
receive cash flows from the assets have expired; (b) the Group retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset,
but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third-party under a pass-through
arrangement; or (c) the Group has transferred its right to receive cash flows from the asset and either (i) has
transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (ii) has neither transferred nor retained the risks and
rewards of the asset but has transferred control of the asset.
Where the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through
arrangement, and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor
transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognized to the extent of the Companys continuing involvement in the
asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower
of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be
required to repay.
Financial liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets if,
and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to
settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. This is not generally the case with
master netting agreements, and the related assets and liabilities are presented gross in the consolidated balance
sheet.
Impairment of Financial Assets
The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of
financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if,
there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial
recognition of the asset (an incurred loss event) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated
future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of
impairment may include indications that the borrower or a group of borrowers is experiencing significant financial
difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or
other financial reorganization and where observable data indicate that there is measurable decrease in the estimated
future cash flows, such as changes in economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

-6Loans and receivables


For loans and receivables carried at amortized cost, the Group first assesses whether objective evidence of
impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that
are not individually significant. If the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for individually
assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar
credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses for impairment. Those characteristics are relevant to the
estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the debtors ability to pay all amounts
due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated. Assets that are individually assessed for
impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognized are not included in a collective
assessment for impairment.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the
difference between the assets carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows (excluding
future credit losses that have not been incurred). The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through use of an
allowance account and the amount of loss is charged to the statement of income. Interest income continues to be
recognized based on the original effective interest rate of the asset. Loans and receivables, together with the
associated allowance accounts, are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery. If, in a
subsequent year, the amount of the estimated impairment loss decreases because of an event occurring after the
impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed. Any subsequent reversal of an
impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss, to the extent that the carrying value of the asset does not exceed its
amortized cost at the reversal date.
For the purpose of a collective evaluation of impairment, financial assets are grouped on the basis of such credit risk
characteristics as customer type, customer location, credit history, past-due status and term.
Future cash flows in a group of financial assets that are collectively evaluated for impairment are estimated on the
basis of historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics similar to those in the group. Historical
loss experience is adjusted on the basis of current observable data to reflect the effects of current conditions that did
not affect the period on which the historical loss experience is based and to remove the effects of conditions in the
historical period that do not exist currently. The methodology and assumptions used for estimating future cash flows
are reviewed regularly by the Group to reduce any differences between loss estimates and actual loss experience.
Offsetting of Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated balance sheet if,
and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to
settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. This is not generally the case with
master netting agreements, and the related assets and liabilities are presented gross in the consolidated balance
sheet.
Subdivision Land for Sale
Subdivision land for sale and condominium units for sale are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value (NRV).
NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs to complete and sell. Cost
includes those incurred for the development and improvement of the properties and is measured using the average
cost method.
Sports Club Shares for Sale
These are assets held for sale in the ordinary course of business. Sports club shares for sale are valued at the lower
of cost or NRV. Cost is measured using the average cost method while NRV is the selling price in the ordinary course
of business, less estimated cost to sell.
Land and Improvements
Land and improvements consist of properties acquired exclusively for future development and are carried at the lower
of aggregate cost or NRV. Cost includes those incurred for development and improvement of the properties. NRV is
the selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs to complete and sell.

-7Investment in an Associate
Investment in an associate is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. An associate is an entity in which
the Group has significant influence.
Under the equity method, the investment in an associate is carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost plus
post-acquisition changes in the Companys share in the net assets of the investee companies. The consolidated
statement of income includes the Groups share in the results of the operations of the associate. Profit and losses
resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate is eliminated to the extent of the interest in the
associate.
The reporting date of the associate and the Group are identical and the associates accounting policies conform to
those used by the Group for like transactions and events in similar circumstances.
Investment Properties
Investment properties consist of properties that are held to earn rentals and for capital appreciation or both.
Investment properties, except for land, are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization and any
impairment in value. Land is carried at cost less any impairment in value.
Depreciation and amortization of investment properties commence once the properties are available for their intended
use and are computed using the straight-line method over its useful life. The estimated useful lives of investment
properties are as follows:
Land improvements
Buildings

40 years
5 to 40 years

Investment properties are derecognized when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is
permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gains or losses
on the retirement or disposal of an investment property are recognized in the consolidated statement of income in the
year of retirement or disposal.
Transfers are made to investment property when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by ending of
owner-occupation, commencement of an operating lease to another party or ending of construction or development.
Transfers are made from investment property when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by
commencement of owner-occupation or commencement of development with a view to sale.
Transfers between investment property, owner-occupied property and inventories do not change the carrying amount
of the property transferred and they do not change the cost of that property for measurement or disclosure purposes.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. The initial
cost of property and equipment consists of its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the
property and equipment to its working condition and location for its intended use.
Construction-in-progress is stated at cost. This includes cost of construction, equipment and other direct costs.
Construction-in-progress is not depreciated until such time that the relevant assets are available for their intended
use.
Major repairs are capitalized as property and equipment only when it is probable that future economic benefits
associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the items can be measured reliably. All other repairs
and maintenance are charged against current operations as incurred.

-8Depreciation and amortization of assets commence once the property and equipment are available for their intended
use and is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment as follows:
Office condominium and improvements
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
Transportation equipment

40 years
3 - 10 years
3 - 5 years

The useful lives and depreciation and amortization method are reviewed periodically to ensure that the period and
method of depreciation and amortization are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of
property and equipment.
When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of the related accumulated depreciation and amortization
and accumulated provision for impairment losses, if any, are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is credited or charged against current operations.
Impairment of Nonfinancial Assets
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such
indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the
assets recoverable amount. An assets recoverable amount is the higher of an assets or cash-generating units fair
value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not
generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the
carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to
its recoverable amount. 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 asset. Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognized in the consolidated statement of
income in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.
An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized
impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is
estimated. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates
used to determine the assets recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If that is the case
the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the
carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for
the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in the consolidated statement of income unless the asset is
carried at revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such reversal the
depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the assets revised carrying amount, less any residual
value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.
Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event,
it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a
reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Group expects some or all of the provision
to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but
only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are
discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where
discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a borrowing cost.
Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
Revenue from sales of completed subdivision land, condominium units and sports club shares are accounted for
under the full accrual method. The percentage of completion method is used to recognize revenue from sales of
projects where the Group have material obligations under the sales contract to complete the project after the property
is sold. Under this method, revenue is recognized as the related obligations are fulfilled, measured principally on the
basis of the estimated completion of a physical proportion of the contract work.
Any excess of collections over the recognized receivables are included in the Accounts payable and accrued
expenses account in the liabilities section of the consolidated balance sheet.

-9When a sale of real estate does not meet the requirements for revenue recognition, the sale is accounted for under
the deposit method. Under this method, revenue is not recognized, and the receivable from the buyer is not recorded.
Cash received is recognized as a liability.
Cost of real estate sales include land and development costs. Expected losses are recognized immediately when it is
probable that the cost will exceed the related contract price. Revisions in estimated costs are accounted for starting
in the year the change is made. Commissions for pre-completed real estate units are deferred and are charged to
expense when the related revenue is recognized.
Rental income from noncancellable and cancellable leases are recognized in the consolidated statement of income
on a straight-line basis and the terms of the lease, respectively, or based on a certain percentage of the gross
revenue of the tenants, as provided for under the terms of the lease contract.
Interest income is recognized as it accrues (using the effective interest method that is the rate that exactly discounts
estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the
financial assets).
Pension Cost
Pension cost is actuarially determined using the projected unit credit method. This method reflects services rendered
by employees up to the date of valuation and incorporates assumptions concerning employees projected salaries.
Actuarial valuations are conducted with sufficient regularity, with option to accelerate when significant changes to
underlying assumptions occur. Pension cost includes current service cost, interest cost, expected return on any plan
assets, actuarial gains and losses and the effect of any curtailment or settlement.
The liability recognized in the consolidated balance sheet in respect of the defined benefit pension plan is the present
value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of the plan assets. The defined
benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present
value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using risk-free
interest rates of government bonds that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension
liability.
Actuarial gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are charged or
credited to the consolidated statement of income.
Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs are generally expensed as incurred. Interest and other financing costs incurred during the
construction period on borrowings used to finance property development are capitalized as part of development costs
of the specific (included in Investment properties account in the consolidated balance sheet). Capitalization of
borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the asset are in progress and expenditures and borrowing
costs are being incurred. Capitalization of borrowing costs ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to
prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are complete. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its
recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recorded. Capitalized borrowing cost is based on applicable weighted
average borrowing rate.
Income Taxes
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be
recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those
that are enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred income tax is provided, using the balance sheet liability method, on all temporary differences with certain
exceptions, at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and its carrying amounts for
financial reporting purposes.

- 10 Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences with certain exceptions. Deferred tax
assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and carryforward benefits of unused tax credits from
excess of minimum corporate income tax (MCIT) over the regular corporate income tax and unused net operating loss
carryover (NOLCO) to the extent that it is probable that taxable income will be available against which the deductible
temporary differences and carryforward benefits of unused MCIT and NOLCO can be utilized.
Deferred tax liabilities are not provided on nontaxable temporary differences associated with investments in
associates.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is
no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be
utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet date and are recognized to the
extent that it has become probable that future taxable income will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the
asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially
enacted as of balance sheet date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against
current income tax liabilities and the deferred income taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation
authority.
Foreign Currency Transactions
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Philippine peso, which is the Groups functional and
presentation currency. Each entity in the group determines its own functional currency and items included in the
financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. Transactions in foreign currencies
are initially recorded using the exchange rate, based on the Philippine Dealing System (PDS) rate, at the date of the
transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are restated using the closing PDS
rate prevailing at balance sheet dates. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign exchange transactions are
credited to or charged against operations for the year.
Earnings Per Share (EPS)
Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income for the year attributable to common stockholders by the weighted
average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the year adjusted for any subsequent stock
dividends declared. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income for the year by the weighted average number of
common shares issued and outstanding during the year after giving effect to assumed conversion of potential
common shares, if any.
Segment Reporting
The Groups operating businesses are organized and managed separately according to the nature of the products
and services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products and
serves different markets. Financial information on business segments is presented in Note 23.
Contingencies
Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. These are disclosed unless the
possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized
in the consolidated financial statements but disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Subsequent Events
Post year-end events that provide additional information about the Groups position at the balance sheet date
(adjusting events) are reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Post year-end events that are not adjusting
events are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when material.

Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimates


The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with PFRS requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
The estimates and assumptions used in the consolidated financial statements are based upon managements
evaluation of relevant facts and circumstances as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results
could differ from such estimates.
Judgments
In the process of applying the Groups accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, apart
from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the
consolidated financial statements:
Operating Lease
The Group has entered into commercial property leases on its investment property portfolio. The Group has
determined that it retains all significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties as the leased item is land
and for properties other than land, the Group considered, among others, the length of the lease term as compared
with the estimated life of the assets.
A number of the Groups operating lease contracts are accounted for as noncancellable operating leases and the rest
are cancellable. In determining whether a lease contract is cancellable or not, the Group considered, among others,
the significance of the penalty, including economic consequence to the lessee.
Sport Club Shares for Sale
Being a real estate developer, the Group determines how these shares shall be accounted for. In determining
whether these shares shall be accounted for as inventories or as financial instruments, the Group considers its role in
the development of the Club and its intent for holding these shares.
The Group classifies such shares as inventories when the Group acted as the developer and its intent is to sell a
developed property.
Distinction Between Investment Properties and Owner-occupied properties
The Group determines whether a property qualifies as investment property. In making its judgment, the Group
considers whether the property generates cash flows largely independent of the other assets held by an entity.
Owner-occupied properties generate cash flows that are attributable not only to property but also to the other assets
used in the production or supply process.
Some properties comprise a portion that is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation and another portion that is
held for use in the production or supply of services or for administrative purposes. If these portions cannot be sold
separately as of balance sheet date, the property is accounted for as investment property only if an insignificant
portion is held for use in the supply of services or for administrative purposes. Judgment is applied in determining
whether ancillary services are so significant that a property does not qualify as investment property. The Group
considers each property separately in making its judgment.
Distinction Between Land and Improvements and Subdivision Land for Sale
The Group determines whether a property will be classified as Subdivision land for sale or Land and improvements.
In making this judgment, the Group considers whether the property will be sold in the normal operating cycle
(Subdivision land for sale) or whether it will be retained as part of the Groups strategic landbanking activities for
development or sale in the medium or long-term (Land and improvements).
Contingencies
The Group is currently involved in various legal proceedings. The estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of
these claims has been developed in consultation with outside counsel handling the defense in these matters and is
based upon an analysis of potential results. The Group currently does not believe these proceedings will have a
material effect on the Groups financial position. It is possible, however, that future results of operations could be
materially affected by changes in the estimates or in the effectiveness of the strategies relating to these proceedings.

- 12 Managements Use of Estimates


The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation and uncertainty at the balance sheet
date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are
discussed below.
Revenue and cost recognition
The Groups revenue recognition policies require management to make use of estimates and assumptions that may
affect the reported amounts of revenues and costs. The Groups revenue from real estate is recognized based on the
percentage of completion measured principally on the basis of the estimated completion of a physical proportion of
the contract work, and by reference to the actual costs incurred to date over the estimated total costs of the project.
Estimating allowance for doubtful accounts
The Group maintains allowance for doubtful accounts based on the result of the individual and collective assessment
under PAS 39. Under the individual assessment, the Group is required to obtain the present value of estimated cash
flows using the receivables original effective interest rate. Impairment loss is determined as the difference between
the receivables, carrying balance and the computed present value. Factors considered in individual assessment are
payment history, past due status and term. The collective assessment would require the Group to group its
receivables based on the credit risk characteristics (customer type, customer location, credit history, past-due status
and term) of the customers. Impairment loss is then determined based on historical loss experience of the
receivables grouped per credit risk profile. Historical loss experience is adjusted on the basis of current observable
data to reflect the effects of current conditions that did not affect the period on which the historical loss experience is
based and to remove the effects of conditions in the historical period that do not exist currently. The methodology and
assumptions used for the individual and collective assessments are based on management's judgment and estimate.
Therefore, the amount and timing of recorded expense for any period would differ depending on the judgments and
estimates made for the year.
As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, net receivables amounted to P
= 247.6 million and P
= 289.3 million, respectively (see
Note 5).
Estimating useful lives of property and equipment and investment properties
The Group estimates the useful lives of its property and equipment and investment properties based on the period
over which these assets are expected to be available for use. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment
and investment properties are reviewed at least annually and are updated if expectations differ from previous
estimates due to physical wear and tear and technical or commercial obsolescence on the use of these assets. It is
possible that future results of operations could be materially affected by changes in estimates brought about by
changes in factors mentioned above.
As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, book values of property and equipment and investment properties amounted to
P
= 2,226.4 million and P
= 1,884.1 million, respectively (see Notes 8 and 9).
Evaluating asset impairment
The Group reviews investments in an associate, property and equipment and investment properties for impairment of
value. This includes considering certain indications of impairment such as significant changes in asset usage,
significant decline in assets market value, obsolescence or physical damage of an asset, plans in the real estate
projects, significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results and
significant negative industry or economic trends.
As described in the accounting policy, the Group estimates the recoverable amount as the higher of the net selling
price and value in use. In determining the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be generated
from the continued use of the assets, the Group is required to make estimates and assumptions that may affect
investments in an associate, investment properties, property and equipment and other noncurrent assets. See
Notes 7, 8, 9 and 10 for the related balances.

- 13 Deferred tax assets


The Group reviews the carrying amounts of deferred income taxes at each balance sheet date and reduces deferred
tax assets to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part
of the deferred tax assets to be utilized. However, there is no assurance that the Group will generate sufficient
taxable income to allow all or part of deferred tax assets to be utilized. The Group looks at its projected performance
in assessing the sufficiency of future taxable income.
As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, net deferred tax assets (liabilities) amounted to (P
= 9.0 million) and P
= 3.0 million,
respectively (see Note 20).
Estimating pension obligation and other retirement benefits
The determination of the Groups obligation and cost for pension and other retirement benefits is dependent on
selection of certain assumptions used by actuaries in calculating such amounts. Those assumptions are described in
Note 19 and include among others, discount rates, expected returns on plan assets and rates of salary increase.
While the Group believes that the assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in actual
experience or significant changes in assumptions materially affect retirement obligations.
Fair value of financial instruments
PFRS requires certain financial assets and liabilities to be carried at fair value, which requires use of extensive
accounting estimates and judgments. While significant components of fair value measurement were determined
using verifiable objective evidence (i.e., foreign exchange rates, interest rates and volatility rates), the amount of
changes in fair value would differ if we utilized different valuation methodology. Any changes in fair value of these
financial assets and liabilities would affect directly the consolidated statement of income and changes in equity.
Certain financial assets and liabilities of the Group were initially recorded at its fair value by using the discounted cash
flow methodology. See Notes 5 and 14 for the related balances.

Shopping centers pertain to lease receivables of retail space and land therein, food courts and entertainment
facilities.
Corporate business pertains to receivables from lease of office buildings.
Residential pertains to receivables from sale of high-end residential lots and condominium units.

Terms and conditions of receivables are as follows:

Receivables from sale of commercial lots, included under commercial development are noninterest-bearing and
are collectible in monthly or quarterly installments over the period of two years. Titles to real estate properties
are not transferred to buyers until full payment has been made

- 27 The methods and assumptions used by the Company in estimating the fair value of the financial instruments are as
follows:
Cash and cash equivalents and current receivables - Carrying amounts approximate fair values due to the relatively
short-term maturities of these investments.
Noncurrent receivables - The fair values are based on the discounted value of future cash flows using the applicable
rates for similar types of instruments. The discount rates used ranged from 5.0% to 6.7% and 5.3% to 7.1% in 2007
and 2006, respectively.
Liabilities - The fair value of noncurrent unquoted instruments (long-term debt and deposits) are estimated using the
discounted cash flow methodology using the Groups current incremental borrowing rates for similar borrowings with
maturities consistent with those remaining for the liability being valued. The discount rates used ranged from 5.0% to
6.7% and 5.3% to 7.1% as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The fair value of noncurrent unquoted
instruments with floating rates approximate their carrying amounts due to the regular repricing of the instruments.
The fair values of accounts and other payables and short-term debt approximate the carrying amounts due to the
short-term nature of these transactions. The fair values of bank loans, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and
other current liabilities approximate the carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of these transactions.
Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies
The Groups principal financial instruments comprise cash and cash equivalents and bank loans. The financial debt
instruments were issued primarily to finance the Groups operations. The Group has various other financial assets
and liabilities such as trade receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations.
Exposure to credit, interest rate, liquidity and foreign currency risks arise in the normal course of the Groups business
activities. The main objectives of the Groups financial risk management are as follows:

to identify and monitor such risks on an ongoing basis;


to minimize and mitigate such risks; and
to provide a degree of certainty about costs.

The use of financial derivative instruments (if any) is solely for management of the Groups financial risk exposures. It
is the Groups policy not to enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.
The Groups financing and treasury function operates as a centralized service for managing financial risks and
activities as well as providing optimum investment yield and cost-efficient funding for the Group. The Groups BOD
reviews and approves policies for managing each of these risks.
Credit Risk
The Groups credit risks are primarily attributable to financial assets such as cash and cash equivalents and
receivables. To manage credit risk, the Group maintains defined credit policies and monitors on a continuous basis
our exposure to credit risks.
Cash and cash equivalents. The Group adheres to fixed limits and guidelines in its dealing with counterparty banks
and its investment in financial instruments. Bank limits are established on the basis of an internal rating system that
covers the area of liquidity, capital adequacy and financial stability. Given the high credit standing of its accredited
counterparty banks, management does not expect any of these financial institutions to fail in meeting their obligation.
Commercial development, corporate business and residential trade receivables. With respect to installment
receivables from the sale of properties, credit risk is managed primarily through credit reviews and monitoring of
receivables on a continuous basis. The Group undertakes supplemental credit review procedures to ensure the
adequacy of provisioning for certain installment payment structures. Customer payments are facilitated through
various collection modes including the use of post-dated checks and auto-debit arrangements. Exposure to bad
debts is not significant and the requirement for remedial procedures is minimal given the profile of buyers.

- 28 Shopping center trade receivables. Credit risk arising from rental income from leasing properties is primarily
managed through a tenant selection process. Prospective tenants are evaluated on the basis of payment track record
and other credit information. For existing tenants, the Group has put in place a monitoring and follow-up system.
Receivables are aged and analyzed on a continuous basis to minimize credit risk associated with these receivables.
Regular meetings with tenants are also undertaken to provide opportunities for counseling and further assessment of
paying capacity.
The table below shows the maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet. The maximum
exposure is shown gross, before the effect of mitigation through the use of collateral agreements.

The credit quality of the financial assets was determined as follows:


Cash and cash equivalents - based on the nature of the counterparty and the Groups internal rating system
Receivables - high grade pertains to receivables with no default in payment; medium grade pertains to receivables
with up to 3 defaults in payment; and low grade pertains to receivables with more than 3 defaults in payment.
As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Group does not have restructured financial assets.
The Group has no significant credit risk concentrations on its receivables. Policies are in place to ensure that lease
contracts and contract to sell are made with customers with good credit history.

- 29 Given the Groups diverse base of counterparties, it is not exposed to large concentration of credit risk. As of

Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with
financial instruments. Liquidity risk may result from either the inability to sell financial assets quickly at their fair
values; or the counterparty failing on repayment of a contractual obligation; or inability to generate cash inflows as
anticipated.
The Group monitors its cash flow position, debt maturity profile and overall liquidity position in assessing its exposure
to liquidity risk. The Group maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed sufficient to finance operations
and to mitigate the effects of fluctuation in cash flows. Accordingly, its loan maturity profile is regularly reviewed to
ensure availability of funding through an adequate amount of credit facilities with financial institutions.
As of December 31, 2007, current ratio increased to 2:1, with cash and cash equivalents of P
= 904.8 million accounting
for 48% of the total current assets, and resulting in a net working capital of P
= 887.8 million.
Overall, the Groups funding arrangements are designed to keep an appropriate balance between equity and debt, to
give financing flexibility while continuously enhancing the Groups businesses.
The table summarizes the maturity profile of the Groups financial liabilities at December 31, 2007 and 2006 based on
contractual undiscounted payments:

- 30 Foreign Currency Risk


Majority of the Groups transactions are denominated in PHP. Financial assets and financing facilities extended to the
Group were mainly denominated in Philippine Peso. As such, the Groups foreign currency risk is minimal.
The Groups foreign currency denominated monetary assets consist of cash and cash equivalent amounting to
US$2.0 million (P
= 83.2 million) as of December 31, 2007 and US$1.9 million (P
= 93.0 million) as of December 31, 2006.
In translating the foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities into peso amounts, the exchange rates
used were P
= 41.28 to US$1.00 and P
= 49.132 to US$1.00, the Philippine peso-U.S. dollar exchange rates as at
December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in the US dollar rate, with all
variables held constant, of the Groups profit before tax (due to changes in the dollar denominated cash and cash
equivalent) and the Groups equity.

Interest Rate Risk


The Groups interest rate exposure management policy centers on reducing the Groups overall interest expense and
exposure to changes in interest rates. Changes in market interest rates relate primarily to the Groups interestbearing debt obligations with floating interest rate as it can cause a change in the amount of interest payments.
The Group manages its interest rate risk by leveraging on its premier credit rating and maintaining a debt portfolio mix
of both fixed and floating interest rates. The portfolio mix is a function of historical, current trend and outlook of
interest rates, volatility of short-term interest rates, the steepness of the yield curve and degree of variability of cash
flows.
As of December 31, 2007, the Groups ratio of fixed to floating rate stood at 45:54.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity of the Groups profit before tax and equity (through the peso floating
rate borrowings) due to a reasonably possible change in interest rates, with all variables held constant.
