FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND AUDITORS' REPORT
THANTAWAN INDUSTRY PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED
DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997
Auditors' Report
To the Shareholders of Thantawan Industry Public Company Limited:
We have audited the balance sheets of Thantawan Industry Public Company Limited as at
December 31, 1998 and 1997 , and the related statements of income, changes in shareholders'equity,
retained earnings and cash flows for each of the years then ended. The Company's management are
responsible for the correctness and completeness of information presented in these financial statements.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statements presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Thantawan Industry Public Company Limited at December 31, 1998
and 1997, and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
Without qualifying our opinion we draw attention to Note 8 to the financial statements, at
December 31, 1998 the Company had buildings and improvements at cost of Baht 8,474,659.75 (book
value of Baht 7,694,504.34) which are located on a related company's land without a lease agreement.
In 1998, the related company charged the Company Baht 24.1 million for rental fees for the preceding
five years from 1994 to 1998. The Company has not recorded this liability in the financial statements
because there is no agreement or other supporting evidence. In addition, as described in Note 9 to the
financial statements, the Company was attempting to purchase the land and building from the related
company. Advance payments for asset acquisitions at December 31, 1998 represent advance payments
according to an agreement to purchase the land and building from the related company in the amount of
Baht 20.5 million. The Company has given notice of cancellation of the agreement and requested a
refund of the advance payment since the Extraordinary Meetings of Shareholders did not approve the
purchase plan. At present, the advance payment has not been refunded and the Company is in the
process of negotiation with the related company. However there is no evidence to specify the timing for
reaching an agreement or receiving a refund of the advance payment. The 1998 financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1 to the financial statements. The
operations of Thantawan Industry Public Company Limited since 1997 have been affected and may
continue to be influenced for the foreseeable future by the adverse economic conditions in Thailand and
the Asia Pacific Region in general. The ultimate effect that these uncertainties will have on the financial
statements cannot presently be determined.
