INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF TUAN SING HOLDINGS LIMITED

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Tuan Sing Holdings Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (the "Group"), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position of the Group and the statement of financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2020, and the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows of the Group and the statement of changes in equity of the Company for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, as set out on pages 88 to 171.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Group and the statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity of the Company are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, Chapter 50 (the "Act") and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) ("SFRS(I)s") so as to give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group and the financial position of the company as at 31 December 2020 and of the consolidated financial performance, consolidated changes in equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group and of the changes in equity of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on Auditing ("SSAs"). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority Code of Professional Conduct and Ethics for Public Accountants and Accounting Entities ("ACRA Code") together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Singapore, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ACRA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Revenue recognition of development properties

The Group recognises revenue based on the stage of completion for the sale of development properties under development on the terms and specifications as set out in the contracts. The analysis of whether the contracts comprises one or more performance obligations, determination of whether the performance obligations are satisfied over time and the method used to measure progress for revenue recognition for these development properties requires estimate by management.

The stage of completion is measured by reference to certifications of the value of work performed to date by third party quantity surveyors as compared to the estimated total construction costs of the development project as approved by management. Significant judgements are required to determine the total construction costs which include estimation for variation works and any other claims from contractors. Any changes to the estimated total construction costs will impact the stage of completion, and consequentially the revenue recognised.

Our audit performed and responses thereon

We read the sales and purchase agreements of development properties and discussed with management to understand the relevant terms of the contracts and the basis of management's identification of performance obligations to determine whether the criteria for recognising revenue over time were met. We performed procedures to evaluate the design and implementation of the relevant controls put in place by the Group in respect of revenue recognition from the development properties.

We also reviewed management's estimated total construction cost for each of the development projects, and assessed the reasonableness of the assumptions and estimates applied by management which included key elements such as construction costs and variation works, taking also into consideration the need by management to account for any effects of significant or unusual events that occurred during the year which may impact the estimated total construction cost. In addition, we also used the value of the work performed to date as provided by third party quantity surveyors, compared to the estimated total construction cost and performed arithmetic computations of the stage of completion and revenue to be recognised for the year.

We found management's basis of identifying performance obligations and the basis of revenue recognition for these development properties to be appropriate. We also found that the key assumptions applied by management for estimated total construction costs to be reasonable based on supportable information available.

Further disclosures are made in Note 28 to the financial statements.

Valuation of development properties

The Group has residential properties under development and completed properties for sale which are mainly located in Singapore. These development properties are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable values.

The determination of the estimated net realisable value of these development properties is dependent upon the Group's expectations of future selling prices. Weakening market conditions and slow take up rate of development properties may impact and create downward pressure on the selling prices of these properties. There is a risk that the estimates of net realisable values may exceed future selling prices, resulting in losses when properties are sold.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF TUAN SING HOLDINGS LIMITED

Key Audit Matters (cont'd)

Valuation of development properties(cont'd)

Our audit performed and responses thereon

We discussed with and evaluated management's basis used in their assessment in determining whether the Group's properties under development and completed properties for sale are impaired and the amount of impairment to be recorded if any, based on the Group's estimated selling prices of these properties, by comparing where available, to recently transacted prices for the same project and prices of past sales of comparable properties in the vicinity. In addition, we made reference to valuation performed by professional external valuers engaged by the Group. We also performed sensitivity analysis on the estimated selling prices used by management in their assessment and considered the adequacy of the disclosures in respect of the impairment losses, if any, presented in the financial statements for these properties.

We found management's estimates to be reasonable based on supportable information available, and that management had applied their knowledge of the business in determining the estimated selling prices of the respective properties, by taking into consideration the selling prices of recent sales of the respective properties and that of comparable properties, and expectations of the property market conditions. We found that the Group had appropriately recorded the impairment loss in profit or loss and the related disclosures to be appropriate.

Further disclosures are made in Note 10 to the financial statements.

Valuation of investment properties and hotel properties

The Group has investment and hotel properties stated at fair value, determined based on professional external valuers engaged by the Group.

The valuation process involves significant judgement and estimation. The valuations are dependent on the valuation methodology applied and the underlying assumptions used, which includes price per square metre of market comparables used; capitalisation rates; price per square metre of gross / net lettable area and value per room for hotel properties. A change in the key assumptions applied may have a significant impact to the valuation.

Our audit performed and responses thereon

We read the terms of engagement of the external valuers engaged and also considered the objectivity and independence of the external valuers including their qualifications and competency.

We considered the appropriateness of the valuation techniques used by the external valuers for the respective investment and hotel properties, taking into account the profile and type of these properties. We discussed with the external valuers on the results of their work, and compared the key assumptions used in their valuations by reference to externally published benchmarks or comparables where available and considered whether these assumptions are consistent with the current market environment. We have also engaged our internal valuation specialists to assist in reviewing the valuation reports issued by external independent professional valuers for the Group's major investment and hotel properties by assessing whether the valuation methodology and key assumptions adopted is reasonable.

Some of the external valuers highlighted that given the unprecedented set of circumstances on which to base a judgment, less certainty and higher degree of caution should be attached to their valuation than would normally be the case. Due to the unknown future impact that the Coronavirus Disease ("COVID-19") pandemic might have on the real estate market, the external valuers have also recommended to keep the valuation of these properties under frequent review.

We also considered the adequacy of the disclosures in the financial statements, in describing the inherent degree of subjectivity and key assumptions in the estimates.

We found the external valuers to have the appropriate level of qualifications and experience, and that the valuation methodologies adopted were in line with generally accepted market practices for similar properties. The key assumptions used were within reasonable range, taking into account historical rates and available industry data for comparable markets and properties. We also found that the related disclosures in the financial statements to be appropriate.

Further disclosures on the investment properties and hotel properties are found in Notes 14 and 12 to the financial statements respectively.
