and Chairman of Executive Committee

Generally speaking, the real estate business is still considered to be constantly growing, which in turn reflects the strong demands of both consumers in the estate sector and tourism, even though in a certain recent periods of time Thailand has been experiencing internal political conflict.

During the year 2013, Principal Capital Company Public Company Limited (PRINC), has expanded its business from real estate development in prime locations of Bangkok’s business center and property rental business to other ventures including one-stop office bui lding services that are inclusive of office building management, sales, and administration, IT, finance and accountancy.

Besides all this, PRINC has seen a growth potent ia l opportuni ty to invest in the Information Technology Systems business by acquiring Convergence Systems Company Limited into its portfolio as of October 2013 – obtaining a 99.99 % shareholder stake, with 35 million Baht paid-of capital. Moreover, in July 2013, PRINC set up Principal Investment Company Limited as its business consultancy company, with an initial capital of 10 million THB, and a 99.99% holding share.

Heading into 2014, PRINC has a strong determinat ion to eff ic ient ly develop i ts existing projects and services. Meanwhile, we are constant ly keeping an eye on investing in potential businesses, in and out of the stock market, and aiming to grow our business both domestically and internationally. We strongly believe that with experience and a hard-working manage ment team, together with all our hard-working staff, PRINC will confidently move forward while maintaining sustainable growth.

This expected success could not have happened without the support of shareholders, customers, financial institutions, members of the press, and business partners. PRINC itself relies on the expertise and commitment of all of its directors, management and staff. On behalf of PRINC, I would like to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to all of the parties concerned, and we hope for their continued support in the future.

Message from

the CEO

Principal Capital Public Company Limited has an absolute standout core value to run a business that produces gains and benefits for its shareholders by adhering to good governance policies, so that the company is run with a foundation of efficiency and transparency.

In the year 2013, the new management team has continued to perform their tasks in real estate business focusing in Bangkok’s central business district and other prime areas. The new management team will have completed their one-year operation on April 29, 2014. The performance of the company affter its one-year operation have been considered successful. The losses of the company have been significantly reduced, with a current figure of 1.2 million Baht in loss. This can be taken as an indication of the company’s extraordinary growth, and highly successful performance, by turning a big loss company closer into a “no loss” company. The company’s sucess is proven by its latest 4th quarter performance, and it is expected that from now on, the performance of the company will gradually pick up and meet the planned targets.

Investors started to show positive response on the change in management team which reflected in our recent share price and the trading volume. This is due to the fact that the company has used the newly increased capital to pay off the debt and stop the interest

expense. This results in a better performance for the company. The new projects for the year 2014, have also been positively supported by the shareholders.

Last year (2013), the company focused its interest in 2 major areas. The first focus was to utilize the existing resources, and seek for more business opportunities. In other words, the company, which is running its real estate business with adequate human resources, has utilized the same group of human resources, as well as the same structure and the same resources, to create new job opportunities for the organization. By doing this, the company doesn’t have to build new buildings, but just manage the existing buildings with our expertise and existing resources which - in turn, led to the company’s increase in revenue of nearly 20 million Baht.

For the second focus, the company foresaw that Information Technology (IT) is a bright direction in today’s business world, as it is essentially a tool every corporation uses, and so we have invested in an IT business, and are geared up to drive it to the peak of its performance.

This year (2014), we are preparing to expand more to other business lines, having prepared ourselves (in the year 2013) to make the company internally ready, with strength in all areas, before gearing up to meet our target goals.

In addition, this year we are interested in the current market’s business management strategies, and are looking into expanding our business through partners, or alliances, in the model of joint ventures. We are now moving forward with strong determination to build a company with an image and a performance record that catch the eye of both investors and the stock market, with revenue and profits that are dramatically up, and a sustainable economy and policies designed to gain confidence from all investors.

Report from the Audit Committee

Dear Shareholders,

In 2013, the major shareholders at PRINC underwent

a change. Therefore the former audit committee, which

consisted of Mrs. Philai Piamphongsan, the chairman of

the audit committee, Mr. Phaiboon Siriphanusatian, and

Police Colonel Kidanan KhomKham, will not assume their

positions on the board of directors, nor, consequently, on the

audit committee in the next term.

On April 26, 2013, the board of directors appointed a new

audit committee consisting of 3 independent persons, who

do not involve in company’s business as executives, and

are qualified in dealing with financial statements, and have

business managing experience. The committee is led by

Mr. Yarnsak Manomaiphiboon, acting as chairman,

Ms. Aranya Chalermponvarodom, Ms.Orawan Tejapaibul,

and Ms.Thiranan Saengphungtham who acts as the

committee’s secretary. However, Ms.Orawan Tejapaibul

subsequently resigned from her position on January 27, 2014.

The audit committee has followed the line of duty and

responsibilities assigned to it by the board of directors, which

are in accordance with the regulations of the Stock Exchange

of Thailand. Four meetings were held in 2013 between

the audit committee, the executives, the auditors and the

internal auditors, to estimate problems, exchange ideas,

listen to, and make suggestions to, the board of directors.

The conclusions arrived at are as follow:

1. The quarterly financial report, and the financial report

of 2013, were examined by hearing from, and questioning,

the account auditors on the accuracy and reliability of

the company’s financial report, which declares sufficiently

significant information, as well as important changes in

accounting regulations. The audit committee therefore

concluded that the company’s financial reports, unconditionally

presented by the account auditors, are significantly accurate

according to generally accepted accounting regulations.

2. The internal auditor’s results, and the internal

controlling system’s results, were examined in conjunction

with estimations and analysis of any risks in significant

working systems. Thus, it was concluded that the company

possesses a sufficient and effective internal control system.

Furthermore, in cases where ways were found by which the

internal controlling system could be improved and be more

effective, all ideas were suggested and accepted with due

cooperation. In addition, the process of internal auditing was

also examined, and it can be concluded that these actions

followed the regulations of internal auditing stipulated by the

Section1 Business Conduct1. Policy and Overview Principal Capital Public Company Limited (the Company), formerly Metrostar Property Public Company Limited, was primarily engaged in Bangkok’s Central Business District property development in prime locations such as Silom, Sathorn, and other business districts in the city. The Company subsequently expanded to include rental properties and full-service office management, covering building management, sales, administration, finance and accounting.

In addition to the real estate business, the Company sees investment opportunities in information technology services because this business holds significant growth potential. The expansion can also help diversify the Company’s overall investment portfolio. As a result, the Company accessed to the investment in the ordinary shares of Convergence Systems Company Limited in October 2013 at 99.99 percent of its paid- up capital amounting to 35 million Baht

In July 2013, the Company establ ished Principal Investment Company Limited with a registered and paid up capital of 10 million Baht, and 99.99 percent of shares held by the Company to serve as a business consultant.

1.1 Operational Goals The Company started up as a leading residential property developer by developing quality projects in response to the needs of target customers in Bangkok’s Central Business District. The Company currently adjusts its business plan to be in line with increasing competition in the market. Given that the construction of new residential development projects in commercial areas requires hefty capital, varying with the costs of land, and that revenue fluctuates due to project construction and the risk of delays possibly caused by external factors such as economic and political circumstances, The Company has set its focus on businesses that generate a steady income stream, and rely on the expertise of its new shareholders. Hence, the Company starts with commercial property management services. Since a large number of commercial buildings and condominiums lack efficient management, the Company sees opportunities to expand its business to various asset management solutions. In addition, the acquisition of Convergence Systems

Company Limited, a consulting firm for information technology implementation, will help build a steady income stream for the Company without the need for heavy investment. Convergence Systems’ key customers are hospitals, while other customers include universities and private companies. The Company’s current major shareholders have long-term experience in these businesses, and they are capable of providing effective advice.

For information technology services, the Company focuses on providing sales and services to commercial organizations both in Bangkok and upcountry areas in Thailand, in line with the increasing demand for the development of corporate information systems. The Company is also in the process of studying the transition to ‘Cloud Computing’. This technology is expected to be more prevalent in the near future. The Company is also preparing for expansion to accommodate the regional competition after the introduction of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC).

Convergence Systems Company Limited was founded in 2008. It provides consulting services and software implementation related to Hospital Information System, Enterprise Resource Planning, financial management and Human Resource Management, Supply Chain Management, Business Intelligence. Most customers are in the hospital, financial, and industrial sectors. In addition, Convergence Systems Company Limited also provides System Maintenance & Support for companies.

Information Technology Business Convergence Systems Company Limited provides two major types of services.

1) Software Implementation Services T h e c o m p a n y p r o v i d e s s o f t w a r e implementation services including analyzing and designing systems that meet the needs of customers. Its services are divided into different software formats available in the market.

PeopleSoft: The company implements PeopleSoft, a software by Oracle, for Enterprise Resource P lann ing (ERP) , wh ich enab les organizations to integrate their core business processes – including procurement, manufacturing, sales, accounting, and personnel management – both seamlessly, and in realtime. The organizations are thus enabled to operate effectively, with all data from every section being centralized, and without conflicts of information, all of which helps reduce work processes and costs.

Hospital Information System: The company implements HealthObject software, which collects and manages information related to medical and public health services of hospitals and clinics, such as information about patients, medicines, medical services, and financial data, etc.

Bus iness In te l l igence: The Company implements QlickView software, which helps management to make effective decisions. The software displays data via different presentation formats, such as tables, charts, and important ratios. It also features multiple data sets simultaneously, which enables management to operate the flow of information in their organization quickly and efficiently.

2) System Maintenance & Support Service The company provides maintenance and technical support for enterprise software systems by adept personnel, including inspection and maintenance on schedules. Such services increase the efficiency of the system and ensure that work is delivered to meet clients’ objectives accurately and completely. The support helps reduce software errors that may occur in operations.

2.2 Marketing and Competition

Real Estate BusinessPolicy and Nature of the Market In regard to the serviced apartment business, the Company focuses on an upper market, targeting high-level executives who are both Thai and expatriate. In addition, there are also foreign corporate customers that sign contracts to lease the property for foreign management and staff who come to work in Thailand. Long-term contracts are the most common. Most customers are confident with the Company’s reputation, and the services of the team of executives from Marriott. The main sales channel is handled primarily by the sales team of the project. Booking can also be made via Marriott’s reservation system.

Industry Outlook and Trends The competition in serviced apartments in the past year began intensifying because the supply of new serviced apartments in some areas has been increasing. However, the growth rate of the overall supply remains low. In the meantime, the demand for rental property remains unchanged. Should the economy of Thailand continues to grow, the investment will be expanded, and an increase in the number of foreign visitors will be seen. Consequently, rental rates are likely to increase. However, in certain areas the rates may not be much adjusted, and they are in fact likely to be reduced. Key competitors are condominium operators, some of whom have spare units to rent, and offer services similar to serviced apartments. The operators are required to come up with strategies to find new markets to draw more attention of customers.

In 2013 , the occupancy rate for Class-A and Class-B buildings was significantly improved. But in 2014, it is likely to slow down due to the economic downturn and Thailand’s prolonged political concerns. The operators may opt for more price cuts, which will benefit consumers. A survey shows that many operators spend more on renovating rooms to better meet the changing requirement by customers, and lower prices to attract existing demand.

15ANNUAL REPORT 2013

According to a survey of the market value of software and software services in Thailand for the years 2012/2013, the value of software and software services produced in Thailand was 31,979 million Baht, a 24.0 per cent increase from 2011.

Competition

The Company operates the business in terms of projects by focusing on implementing application softwares for enterprises and providing ongoing user support with expertise in enterprise resource management system. The market sector is growing rapidly and requires a good support system to enhance business operations.

The current competition in the software services market is confined in the group of existing information technology providers. The number of competitors is relatively small. Although the software service industry has a low barrier to entry, the market requires a set of experiences and skills to build confidence for clients. Besides, the competition from foreign companies is still not very high because the software implementation in the business sector in Thailand demands a deep understanding of guidelines and laws related to the business conduct of the clients. In addition, local companies still have advantages of relatively low labour costs, which are key to the cost of software service business.

However, the opening of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in 2015 will not only prompt the influx of massive foreign funds,but intensifies the competition in the region. Given that Thailand has weaknesses in the delay of state’s investments in infrastructure development and personal development, it’s likely to see more merger and acquisition trends in the information technology business to support rapid growth and increased competitiveness.

Factors to Affect the Industry.Economic Conditions The growth of the software service industry is associated with the expansion of economic activities and the proportion of spending on ICT of each organization especially in the service sector with high usage of IT systems, such as in finance, insurance, retail, medical and healthcare, etc. Although the economy is likely to slow in 2014, the value of software and software services is expected to grow at a rate of 13 per cent, which is lower than 22 per cent earlier estimated in 2013. However, the business sector continues to focus on improving their information systems.

Trends of Technology Change The current information technology is expected to adopt Cloud Computing Service, a new IT resource management system, which is highly flexible. It enables businesses to add, reduce, adjust their IT systems at the same time as required by business policy without pending for placing orders of additional equipment and supplies because the structure of the system is working on virtual system which supports several software and applications as well concurrent work of several operating systems. In terms of business expansion, when new business units are introduced and expanded, investments will be higher, but Cloud Computing Service will help lower the cost of IT systems because all infrastructures are built and connected by virtual structures, allowing immediate use of IT, which helps management to make a faster decision.

Cloud Computing is currently used widely abroad. But in Thailand the new technology is yet growing fast in the near future because users are studying it especially in regard to system security. The providers of the service are still in the experimental phase for the market.

Personnel The growth of the information technology industry in Thailand is confined to the shortage of qualified personnel because the courses of educational institutions do not comply with the requirements of the rapidly changing market. The development is lagging behind the industry, which leads to an increase in labor costs. In addition, the upcoming ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in 2015 is likely to force the Thai industry to compete with foreign companies in attracting qualified personnel, which will directly affect business operation.

2.3 Providing Products or Services Real Estate To maintain service standards for top-level customers, the Company has entered into management agreements with Marriott, a famous international hotel chain to manage the Company’s residential buildings under Marriott Executive Apartments - Sathorn Vista, Bangkok.

Information Technology Business In the consulting, development, and software installation services, the Company has always selected and represented quality products and ensured that the Company’s personnel have knowledge and are confident in the quality of the softwares. In 2013, the Company’s key manufacturers and business counterparts included Oracle (PeopleSoft), IdeaObject (HealthObject), QlikTech (QlikView), for example.

2.4 Tasks Pending for Delivery A subsidiary has not delivered one project worth 148 million Baht, accounted for more than 10 percent of the total revenues on the 2013 Financial Statement. The delivery is expected within two years.

3. Risk Factors Risk factors affecting the Company’s operations can be classified as follows.

3.1 Risks to the Business. Risk of Revenue Fluctuation. The Company’s revenue structure originally depended primarily on real estate business with major income derived from rents and services by Marriott Executive Apartments - Sathorn Vista, Bangkok, where the income is stable through out the year. Meanwhile, a large chunk of revenue from housing and condo projects would only be recognized when the projects were completed. This revenue will be halted until the Company began developing new projects over again. The circumstance made the Company’s total revenue volatile.

In 2013, after the Company’s major shareholders were changed, the Company has not undertaken

18ANNUAL REPORT 2013

any property development, but focused on offering full-service building management by a team with experience in the real estate business. In addition, the Company has expanded its business into IT consulting services and system implementation, under which revenue has been recognized along the progression of project. Marriott Executive Apartments - Sathorn Vista, Bangkok continues to be the core business that generates major income. The new revenue structure is giving smoother income stream to the company.

Risk of Political Unrest Political issues and conflicts of the society are factors to watch. When the problems show signs of intensity and impacts on public safety and security, making the government to declare a state of emergency in the country, the revenue from residential rental will likely to be declined because most clients are foreigners who are concerned about the political situation in Thailand. However, given that the rally which has started in October 2013, prompting the government to declare the decree of emergency, the Company believes that such issues will impact on the demand in the short term because the Company’s projects are located on Sathorn Road, which are quite far away from the rally and secure for most businesses to continue as usual.

Risk of Delivery. For the business of providing information services, on-time delivery and quality are essential. Providing software services usually takes 6-24 months for delivery depending on the size of the project. If the Company is unable to deliver the project within the time specified in the contract, The Company could be fined by the delay. However, the Company establishes a process to consistently track and monitor project delivery.

Risk of Technology Change. The information technology business is highly competitive and rapidly changing over time. The Company may encounter risks in service absoleteness, which could cause the Company to lose competitiveness. Therefore, the Company is focused on investment plans to keep up with changes in technology as well as encourage its staff to always be alert in learning and accepting new innovations.

The risk of a shortage of human resources. Because information technology services business is a business that is dependent on the capabilities and expertise of personnel. Company highly focus on human resource management, training to develop their skil ls regularly, and having manpower planning to prevent a shortage of human resources, which could affect deliveries to customers.

3.2 Financial Risk Risk of Capital Structure and Liquidity Before the year 2009 the company’s main business was selling real estates. The revenue recognition was based on the percentage of completed phases of work, coupled with a few projects in hand at that time, which apparently caused the fluctuation of revenue and revenue

recognition, especially in the time of the economic slowdown. Since 2009, the Company has expanded to properties for rent such as residential buildings for rent. The business requires high investment and it takes time to the break-even point. But it helps the Company to enjoy a steady revenue stream despite the recession. The investment in the rental business results in higher debt to equity ratio and longer-term of interest payment when compared with the sale business.

In 2013, the Company launched new businesses: office building management and information technology counseling and implementation. They are not capital-intensive businesses, but largely require the expertise of personnel. Therefore, the Company’s financial liquidity is not affected.

Therefore, when considering the overall financial structure of the Company, its total revenue is less impacted by the fluctuation. While there is no more investments in housing and condominium projects, the Company will have only the interest and principal of the loan, used to invest in residential building projects for rent, required to gradually repay the banks. In October 2013, the Company’s prepayment of the banks’ loans by using the proceeds from the sale of new shares. This allows the Company to be free from an obligation to pay principal and interest on long-term loan since November 2013.

Risk of Loans and Account Receivables.The Company manages account receivable risk by issuing policies and procedures for the appropriate credit control. Therefore, the Company does not expect to receive significant damages from facilitating the credit. Besides, the loans offered by the Company and its subsidiaries have no significant concentration because the Company has a diverse customer base. The maximum loss posible is based on the book value of the loans stated in the financial statement.

Risk of Changes in Interest Rates. When considering the previous business conduct of the Company, which focused only on real estates, interest rates posed major risks on the Company’s interest expenses. Also, they impacted the purchasing power of the customers who received loans from banks as well. The interest rates were floating, which would be fluctuating based on economic conditions and other risk factors affecting the economy, including the political situation.

However, after the loan prepayment in full in October 2013 and the company has no plans to invest in housing and condominium projects, the risk related to changes in interest rates is relatively low.

3.3 Risk to shareholders

Risk affecting the rights and investments of the shareholders.

Risk occurred by the Company's single shareholder holding more than 50 percent. As of September 18, 2013 Mr. Satit Viddhayakorn held the Company's 334,503,900 shares, accounting for 71.64 percent of paid shares, allowing Mr. Satit

Viddhayakorn to control almost all shareholders' resolutions including the appointment of directors and other matters that require the approval of a majority of the shareholders' meeting except the issues related to laws or regulations, which requires the Company to get a 3 out of 4 votes from the general meeting of shareholders.

The assessment covers many aspects, such as sales control, management of marketing and revenue, expenses control, procurement control, control of assets and liabilities, control of cost accounting, for example.

10. Corporate Social Responsibilities (CSR)One of Principal Capital Public Company Limited (PRINC)’s policies is to advocate the community by constantly creating supportive social activities in order to lift up the quality of life of people in the community. We’re aiming for a future Thai society that will be better than it is today, and this aim can be realized if we start now to plant a high quality underlying fundamental structure. We do this because we too are a part of the society.

“From Us to the Temple, and From the Temple to the Community” ProjectPRINC has initiated project to develop quality of life of people in the society through healthcare scheme under the project title “From Us to the Temple, and From the Temple to the Community”. The essential idea for this project is that as in the past, the temple is the center of the community, both spiritually and with regards to socially activities. Therefore, PRINC launched this project with several donators and the cooperation of the temples, and links it to the community’s healthcare and hospital(s).

PRINC coordinated with private sponsors to raise fund for buying digital X-Ray machine to Wat Nayoong HospitalIn 2013, PRINC initiated fund raising activities with

various donators to offer a digital X-Ray machine to the Wat Nayoong Hospital, a community temple hospital in Udon Thani Province. In the past, the hospital possessed only an old-fashioned black and white X-Ray machine, with limited performance. By replacing outdated equipment with a modern digital system, patients gain more benefits from the qualified performance of the machine, and the doctors can diagnose the cases more efficiently.

Future ProjectsPRINC has a strong determination in being part of developing communities for a better life. Therefore, in the year 2014, the company will continue “From Us to the Temple, and From the Temple to the Community” by running activities, via donators and the temples, for communities throughout Thailand that are in need. In addition, this year we will add on a new project called “Bringing Good Doctors to the Community”.

313. Key Financial Information13.1 Independent Auditor’s ReportTo the Shareholders of Principal Capital Public Company Limited(formerly known as “Metrostar Property Public Company Limited”)

I have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Principal Capital Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries, which comprise of the consolidated statement of financial position as of 31 December 2013, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and have also audited the separate financial statements of Principal Capital Public Company Limited for the same period.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Thai Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with Thai Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that I comply with ethical requirements, and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements, in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used, and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion.

Opinion In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Principal Capital Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries, and of Principal Capital Public Company Limited as of 31 December 2013, and their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with Thai Financial Reporting Standards.

3. New accounting standards Below is a summary of accounting standards that became effective in the current accounting year, and those that will become effective in the future. (a) Accounting standards that became effective in the current accounting yearAccounting standards: TAS 12 Income Taxes TAS 20 ( rev ised 2009) Account ing for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance TAS 21 (revised 2009) The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates Financial Reporting Standard: TFRS 8 Operating Segments Accounting Standard Interpretations: TSIC 10 Government Assistance - No Specific Relation to Operating Activities TSIC 21 Income Taxes - Recovery of Revalued Non-Depreciable Assets TSIC 25 Income Taxes - Changes in the Tax Status of an Entity or its Shareholders. Accounting Treatment Guidance for Transfers of Financial Assets

These accounting standards, financial reporting standards, accounting standard interpretations, and accounting treatment guidelines do not have any significant impact on the financial statements, except for the following accounting standard.

TAS 12 Income Taxes This accounting standard requires an entity to identify temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the statement of financial position and its tax base, and recognize the tax effects as deferred tax assets or liabilities subjecting to certain recognit ion cr iter ia. The Company and its subsidiaries have changed this accounting policy in this current year, and restated the prior year’s financial statements, presented as comparative information, as though the Company and its subsidiaries had initially recognized the tax effects as deferred tax assets or liabilities. However, this accounting standard does not effect the financial statements of prior years. Therefore there has been no cumulative effect resulting from this change in this accounting policy.

4. Significant accounting policies

4.1 Revenue recognition Residential building service income Res ident ia l bu i ld ing serv ice income is recognized on an accrual basis. Recognized revenue does not include valued added tax, and states net of discounts.Rendering of services Service revenue is recognized when services have been rendered, taking into account the stage of completion.Interest income Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis, based on the effective interest rate.

4.2 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equ iva lents cons is t o f cash in hand and at banks, and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less, and not subject to withdrawal restrictions.

4.3 Trade accounts receivable Trade accounts receivable are stated at the net realizable value. Allowance for doubtful accounts is provided for the estimated losses that may be incurred in collection of receivables. The allowance is generally based on collection experiences and analysis of debt aging.

4.4 Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of average cost and net realizable value.

4.5 Investments a) Investments in securities held for trading are stated at fair value. Changes in the fair value of these securities are recorded in profit or loss. b) Investments in debt securities, both due within one year and expected to be held to maturity, are recorded at amortized cost. The premium/discount on debt securities is amortized/accreted by the effective rate method with the amortized/accreted amount presented as an adjustment to the interest income. c) Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for in the separate financial statements using the cost method. The fair value of marketable securities is based on the latest bid price of the last working day of the year. The fair value of unit trusts is determined from their net asset value at the end of reporting period. The weighted average method is used for computation of the cost of investments. On disposal of an investment, the difference between net d isposa l p roceeds and the carrying amount of the investment is recognized in profit or loss.

4.6 Depreciation of property, plant and equipment Land is s ta ted a t cost . Bu i ld ing and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated deprec ia t ion and a l lowance fo r loss on impairment of assets (if any). Depreciation of building and equipment is calculated by reference to their costs on the straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives: Building and improvements - 10, 20 and 40 years Office equipment - 3 and 5 years Furniture, fixture and equipment supplies - 5 years Motor vehicles - 5 years Depreciation is included in determiningincome. No depreciation is provided on land. The cost of linen, crockery, glassware, silverware and certain utensils, purchased to meet the normal requirements of the serviced apartment operations, has been regarded as a base stock and subsequent purchases are expended when incurred. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on disposal of an asset is included in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.

4.7 Intangible assets Intangible assets acquired through business combination are initially recognized at their fair value on the date of business acquisition, while intangible assets acquired in other cases are recognized at cost. Following the initial recognition, the intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses (if any). Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a systematic basis over their economic useful life, and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for such intangible assets are reviewed at each financial year-end. The amortization expense is charged to profit or loss.

A summary of the intangible assets with finite useful lives is as follows:

Useful lives

Information system service 1 - 2 yearsagreements

Computer software 3 and 5 years

48ANNUAL REPORT 2013

4.8 Business combination The Company accounted for the business combination as discussed in Note 2.2 by applying the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured at fair value, which is the amount of cash or cash equivalents, or the fair market value of any other consideration given, as determined at the date of acquisition. The Company accounted for acquisition-related costs, such as professional fees and other consulting fees, as expenses in the period in which the costs are incurred and the services are received.

4.9 Goodwill Goodwill is initially recorded at cost, which equals to the excess of cost of business combination over the fair value of the net assets acquired. If the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the cost of business combination, the excess is immediately recognized as gain in profit or loss. Goodwill is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the Company’s cash generating units (or group of cash-generating units) that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. The Company estimates the recoverable amount of each cash-generating unit (or group of cash-generating units) to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.4.10 Related party transactions Related parties comprise enterprises and individuals that control, or are controlled by, the Company, whether directly or indirectly, or which are under common control with the Company. They also include associated companies and individuals who directly or indirectly own a voting interest in the Company that gives them significant influence over the Company, key management personnel, directors and officers with authority in the planning and direction of the Company’s operations.4.11 Long-term leases Leases of property, plants, or equipment, that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership, are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalized at the lower of the fair values of the leased assets, and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Outstanding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in long-term payables, while the interest element is charged to profit or loss over the lease period. The assets acquired under finance leases are depreciated over the useful life of the asset.

Leases of property, plants, or equipment that do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership, are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.4.12 Foreign currencies The consolidated and separate f inancial statements are presented in Baht, which is also the Company’s functional currency. Items included in the consolidated financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into Baht at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Baht at the exchange rate ruling at the end of reporting period. Gains and losses on exchange are included in determining income.4.13 Impairment of assetsAt the end of each reporting period, the Company and its subsidiaries perform impairment reviews with respect to the property, plant and equipment, and other intangible assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. The Company and its subsidiaries also carry out annual impairment reviews with respect to goodwill. An impairment loss is recognized when the recoverable amount of an asset, which is the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell, and its value in use, is less than the carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.4.14 Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits Salaries, wages, bonuses and contributions to the social security fund are recognized as expenses when incurred. Post-employment benefits Defined contribution plans The Company and their employees have jointly established a provident fund. The fund is contributed to on a monthly basis, by employees and by the Company. The fund’s assets are held in a separate trust fund and the Company contributions are recognized as expenses when incurred. Defined benefit plans The Company and its subsidiar ies have obligations with respect to severance payments, and they must make to employees, upon retirement, under labor law. The Company and its subsidiaries treat these severance payment obligations as a defined benefit plan. The obligation under the defined benefit plan is determined by the Company and its subsidiaries, based on actuarial techniques using the projected unit credit method. Actuarial gains and losses arising from post-employment benefits are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income. For the first-time adoption of TAS 19 Employee Benefits in 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries

49ANNUAL REPORT 2013

elected to recognize the transitional liability, which exceeds the liability that would have been recognized at the same date under the previous accounting policy, immediately as an expense in profit or loss for the year.4.15 Provisions Provisions are recognized when the Company and its subsidiaries have a present obligation 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. 4.16 Income tax Income tax expense represents the sum of corporate income tax currently payable and deferred tax. Current tax Current income tax is provided in the accounts at the amount expected to be paid to the taxation authorities, based on taxable profits determined in accordance with tax legislation. Deferred tax Deferred income tax is provided on temporary

differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts at the end of each reporting period, using the tax rates enacted at the end of the reporting period. The Company and its subsidiaries recognize deferred tax liabilities for all taxable temporary differences while they recognize deferred tax assets for all deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which such deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can be utilized. At each reporting date, the Company and its subsidiaries review and reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. The Company and its subsidiaries record deferred tax directly to shareholders’ equity if the tax relates to items that are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity.

5. Significant accounting judgments and estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with financial reporting standards at times requires management to make subjective judgments and estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments and estimates affect reported amounts and disclosures; and actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant judgments and estimates are as follows:Leases In determining whether a lease is to be classified as an operating lease or finance lease, the management is required to use judgment regarding whether significant risks and rewards of ownership of the leased asset have been transferred, taking into consideration terms and conditions of the arrangement. Allowance for doubtful accounts In determining an allowance for doubtful accounts, the management needs to make judgment and estimates based upon, among other things, past collection history, aging profile of outstanding debts, and the prevailing economic condition. Fair value of financial instruments In determining the fair value of f inancial instruments that are not actively traded, and for which quoted market prices are not readily available,

the management exercises judgment using a variety of valuation techniques and models. The input to these models is taken from observable markets, and includes consideration of liquidity, correlation, and longer-term volatility of financial instruments.Property plant and equipment/Depreciation In determining depreciation of plant and equipment, the management is required to make estimates of the useful lives and residual values of both plant and equipment, and to review estimates of useful lives and residual values when there are any changes. In addition, the management is required to review property, plant and equipment for impairment on a periodic basis, and record impairment losses when it is determined that their recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount. This requires judgments regarding forecast of future revenues and expenses relating to the assets subject to the review.Goodwill and intangible assets The initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and intangible assets, and subsequent impairment testing, require management to make estimates of cash flows to be generated by the asset or the cash generating units and to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.

62ANNUAL REPORT 2013

In October 2011, the cabinet passed a resolution to reduce the corporate income tax rate from 30 percent to 23 percent in 2012, and then to 20 percent from 2013. In addition, in order to comply with the resolution of the cabinet, in December 2011, the decreases in tax rates for 2012 - 2014 were enacted through a royal decree. The Company and its subsidiaries have reflected the changes in the income tax rates in their

deferred tax calculation, as presented above. As at 31 December 2013 the Company and its subsidiaries have deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses totaling Baht 27 million (2012: Baht 57 million), on which deferred tax assets have not been recognized, as the Company and its subsidiaries believe future taxable profits may not be sufficient to allow utilization of the temporary differences and unused tax losses.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic loss per share:

28. Earnings per shareBasic earnings per share are calculated by dividing profit for the year attributable to equity holders of the Company (excluding other comprehensive income) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year, after adjusting the number of ordinary shares in proportion to the change in the number of shares as a result of the offer for sale of the newly issued ordinary shares to existing shareholders in accordance with the resolutions of the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company’s shareholders, held on 20 August 2013, as discussed in Note 24. The number of ordinary shares of the prior year used for the calculation, as presented for comparative purposes, has been adjusted in proportion to the change in the number of shares, as if such change had been occurred at the beginning of the earliest period reported.

Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing profit for the year attributable to equity holders of the Company (excluding other comprehensive income) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year, plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would need to be issued to convert all dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares. The calculation assumes that the conversion took place either at the beginning of the year, or on the date the potential ordinary shares were issued. However, the Company did not calculate diluted earnings per share for the year ended 31 December 2013, related to PRINC-W1 warrants, because the effect of diluted earnings per share is antidilutive because the Company operations for the year became loss.

27.3 Income tax relating to each component of other comprehensive income The amounts of income tax relating to each component of other comprehensive income for the years ended 31 December 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

68ANNUAL REPORT 2013

Revenue For 2013, PRINC generated 228.26 MB in total revenue, increasing from last year by 32.27 MB or +16.46%. The key factors of revenue increase are from the growth in revenue from serviced apartment business, Marriott Executive Apartment Sathorn Vista (“MEA”), of 12.02 MB and the new revenue generated first time in 2013 from office building management of 14 MB and profit from security sales of 5.59 MB. In 2013, PRINC has one time income from selling of unused asset of 1.08 MB and unrealized gain from investment of 0.86 MB, both were recorded in Other Income.

The revenue increase from the MEA was the result of 9.4% growth in room rate comparing to last year, while the occupancy growth dropped from 88.1% in 2012 to 85.8% in 2013 mainly because of the political unrest during the year end, causing guests to cancel their bookings or delay their travelling to Thailand during that period. For the consolidated statements, PRINC recognized revenue of its subsidiary, Convergence Systems Company Limited (“Convergence”) in the amount of 68.17 MB, which is the revenue recognized from the acquisition date on 15 October 2013 to the end of accounting period.

Cost of Sales Cost of Service Apartment Operations in 2013 accounted for 56.3% of Revenue from Service Apartment, declining 1.07 MB or 1% from last year due to saving from contingency plan for political unrest during the end of 2013. Despite the revenue growth in 2013, MEA was able to manage the cost down, thus showing management’s capability during crisis. Cost of Office Building Management was mainly the salary of staff and general expenses required to run the building operation, which accounted for 36.89% of Revenue from Office Building Management. Cost of Service in both subsidiar ies of 24.55 MB as shown in Consolidated Statement composes of 2 parts, the salary of 9 MB and the cost of IT & software of Convergence Systems Co., Ltd.

Service Expenses and Administrative Expenses Service Expenses in 2013 were mainly MEA’s sales and marketing expense, increasing 0.27 MB or 1.91% from previous year to accommodate revenue growth. Administrative Expenses in 2013 increased 6.47 MB or 7.63% from previous year due to one-time expenses in 2013: (1) Financial Consultant fee of 4.16 MB during the capital increase process and (2) Provision for contingent liability from litigation of 1.24 MB.

Finance Cost Finance cost in 2013 was 31.97 MB, decreasing from previous year by 8.94 MB because PRINC had pre-paid its long term loan for the whole amount in October 2013.

Income Tax Expense PRINC incurred no tax expense in 2012 due to its net operating loss. In 2013, income tax expense was 0.17 MB from Deferred Tax Liability on the unrealized gain from revaluation of trading investment. Tax expense of 7.65 MB shown in consolidated statement was a result of recognizing tax liability of subsidiary in compliance with accounting standard, which comprised of (1) Actual tax charge 4.03 MB and Deferred Tax Liability relating to origination and reversal of temporary differences of 3.62 MB.

Net Profit / Loss In 2013, PRINC incurred net loss of 28.26 MB which is better than last year by 30.20 MB or reduction in loss by 51.66%. The main reason of performance improvement was due to the revenue growth from MEA and the new income from office building management and gain from security sales. On the other hand, interest expense substantially reduced due to the pre-payment of long term loan in October 2013. Consolidated statement showed net loss of 1.19 MB because PRINC has recognized revenue and profit from its subsidiaries. PRINC and its subsidiaries also recognized the actuarial gain on employee’s long term benefit of 1.87 MB and derived to a comprehensive income of 0.68 MB.
