have not been provided other than the details stipulated in
the MMLR.
The Board is mindful of the dual role of Chairman and Chief Executive held by Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay but is of the view that
there are sufficient experienced and independent minded Directors on the Board to provide the assurance that there is
sufficient check and balance. Given that there is a balanced Board with four experienced Independent Directors representing
more than 50% of the Board and the presence of Tun Mohammed Hanif bin Omar as Deputy Chairman, there is a strong
independent element on the Board to exercise independent judgement. Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay has considerable experience in
the Groups businesses and provides leadership for the Board in considering and setting the overall strategies and objectives
of the Company. The Board is of the view that it is in the interest of the Company to maintain the above arrangement so that
the Board could have the benefit of a chairman who is knowledgeable about the business of the Group and is capable to guide
discussion and brief the Board in a timely manner on key issues and developments.
In line with Recommendation 4.1 of the MCCG 2012 whereby the Board should set out expectations on time commitment for
its members and protocols for accepting new directorships, each Director is required to notify the Chairman of the Board prior to
accepting directorships in public and public listed companies incorporated in Malaysia as well as directorships in corporations
with similar businesses operating in the same jurisdiction. The Chairman of the Board shall notify all the Board members before
accepting directorships in public and public listed companies incorporated in Malaysia as well as directorships in corporations
with similar businesses operating in the same jurisdiction. The notification will also include an approximate indication of time
per year that will be spent by the Directors on the new directorships.
All the Directors have attended the Mandatory Accreditation Programme and are also encouraged to attend courses whether
in-house or external to help them in the discharge of their duties.
During the financial year ended 31 December 2014, the Directors received regular briefings and updates on the Groups
businesses, operations, risk management, internal controls, corporate governance, finance and any new or changes to the
relevant legislation, rules and regulations.

The Companys Annual General Meeting remains the principal forum for dialogue with shareholders. Shareholders are encouraged
to participate in the proceedings and ask questions about the resolutions being proposed and the operations of the Group.
The Board has identified Tan Sri Dr. Lin See Yan (email address: [email protected]) to whom concerns may be conveyed.
The current minimum notice period for notices of meetings is as prescribed in MMLR and the Board is of the view that it is
adequate. However, the Board notes the recommendation of the MCCG 2012 to serve notices for meetings earlier than the
minimum notice period and will endeavour to meet this recommendation for future meetings.
The rights of shareholders, including the right to demand for a poll, are found in the Articles of Association of the Company,
a copy of which has been made available on the Companys website. At the 46th Annual General Meeting and Extraordinary
General Meeting of the Company both held on 12 June 2014, the Chairman had notified the shareholders of their right to
demand a poll vote at the commencement of the Annual General Meeting/Extraordinary General Meeting.
The Board has taken the requisite steps to adopt electronic voting, where feasible, to facilitate greater shareholder participation
at general meetings and to ensure accurate and efficient outcomes of the voting process.

(b) neither during nor at the end of the financial year, was the Company a party to any arrangement whose object is to enable
the Directors to acquire benefits by means of the acquisition of shares in or debentures of the Company or any other body
corporate.
Since the end of the previous financial year, no Director of the Company has received or become entitled to receive a benefit
(other than a benefit included in the aggregate amount of emoluments received or due and receivable by the Directors and the
provision for Directors retirement gratuities shown in the financial statements) by reason of a contract made by the Company or
a related corporation with the Director or with a firm of which he is a member or with a company in which he has a substantial
financial interest except for any benefit which may be deemed to have arisen by virtue of the following transactions:
(i) A corporation in which Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay is a director and has substantial financial interest, has:
(a) leased an office premise on the 10th Floor, Genting Centre, Singapore from Resorts World Properties Pte. Ltd., a wholly
owned subsidiary of GENS, which in turn is an indirect 52.5% owned subsidiary of the Company.

office until the next AGM of the Company.
Before the income statements, statements of comprehensive income and statements of financial position of the Group and of
the Company were made out, the Directors took reasonable steps:
(i) to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing off of bad debts and the making of allowances for
doubtful debts, and satisfied themselves that all known bad debts had been written off and adequate allowance had been
made for doubtful debts; and
(ii) to ensure that any current assets which were unlikely to realise in the ordinary course of business their values as shown in
the accounting records, were written down to an amount which they might be expected so to realise.
At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances:
(i) which would render the amount written off for bad debts or the amount of the allowance for doubtful debts in the Group
and in the Company inadequate to any substantial extent;
(ii) which would render the values attributed to the current assets in the financial statements of the Group or of the Company
misleading;
(iii) which have arisen which render adherence to the existing methods of valuation of assets or liabilities in the financial
statements of the Group and of the Company misleading or inappropriate; and
(iv) not otherwise dealt with in this report or in the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, that would render
any amount stated in the respective financial statements misleading.
(i) any charge on the assets of the Group or of the Company that has arisen since the end of the financial year which secures
the liabilities of any other person; or
(ii) any contingent liability in respect of the Group or of the Company that has arisen since the end of the financial year.
No contingent or other liability of the Group or of the Company has become enforceable, or is likely to become enforceable
within the period of twelve months after the end of the financial year which, in the opinion of the Directors, will or may
substantially affect the ability of the Group or of the Company to meet their obligations as and when they fall due.
(i) the results of the operations of the Group and of the Company for the financial year have not been substantially affected
by any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature except for those disclosed in the financial statements;
and
(ii) no item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature has arisen in the interval between the end of the financial
year and the date of this report which is likely to affect substantially the results of the operations of the Group and of the
Company for the financial year in which this report is made.
In the opinion of the Directors, the financial statements set out on pages 69 to 163 are drawn up so as to give a true and fair
view of the state of affairs of the Group and of the Company as at 31 December 2014 and of the results and the cash flows of
the Group and of the Company for the financial year ended on that date in accordance with Financial Reporting Standards, the
Malaysian Accounting Standards Board Approved Accounting Standards in Malaysia for Entities Other Than Private Entities and

Segmental Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-
makers. The chief operating decision-makers, who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the
operating segments, have been identified as the Chairman and Chief Executive and the President and Chief Operating Officer
of the Company.
The Group operates within clearly defined guidelines that are approved by the Board of Directors. Financial risk management
is carried out through risk reviews conducted at all significant operating units. This process is further enhanced by effective
internal controls, a comprehensive insurance programme and adherence to the financial risk management policies.
The main areas of financial risks faced by the Group are as follows:
(i) Foreign currency exchange risk
The Group is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk when the Company and its subsidiaries enter into transactions
that are not denominated in their functional currencies. The Group attempts to significantly limit its exposure for
committed transactions by entering into forward foreign currency exchange contracts within the constraints of market
and government regulations.
The Groups principal foreign currency exposure relates mainly to the Singapore Dollar (SGD), Pound Sterling
(GBP), United States Dollar (USD), Renminbi (RMB), Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) and Indonesia Rupiah (IDR).
The Groups exposure to foreign currencies in respect of its financial assets and financial liabilities as at the reporting
date is as follows:
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity of the Groups profit after tax and equity to 10% (2013: 10%)
strengthening of each respectively in SGD, GBP, USD, RMB, HKD and IDR against the respective functional currencies
of the entities within the Group, with all other variables held constant.
2014 Increase/(Decrease)
Group Profit after tax OCI
SGD 4.0 -
GBP 0.7 -
USD 235.6 349.5
RMB (2.9) -
HKD 34.8 -
IDR 21.7 -
2013 Increase/(Decrease)
Group Profit after tax OCI
SGD 0.6 -
GBP 0.9 -
USD 131.8 330.9
RMB 0.1 -
HKD 24.1 -
IDR 1.9 -
A 10% (2013: 10%) weakening of the above currencies against the respective functional currencies of the entities
within the Group would have the equal but opposite effect to the amount shown above, on the basis that all other
variables remain constant.
At the Company level, credit risk arises from amounts due from subsidiaries, cash and cash equivalents, income
fund and deposits with banks and financial institutions. The Companys exposure to bad debts is not significant.
The Company also manages its credit risk by performing regular reviews of the ageing profile of amounts due from
subsidiaries. The credit risk on income fund is limited because the fund is ultimately deposited with creditworthy
financial institutions.
Information regarding trade and other receivables that are neither past due nor impaired is disclosed in Notes 28 and
31. Deposits with banks and other financial institutions, investment securities and derivatives that are neither past due
nor impaired are placed with or entered into with reputable financial institutions or companies with high credit ratings
and no history of default.
Information regarding trade receivables that are past due or impaired is disclosed in Note 31.
Apart from those disclosed above, none of the other financial assets is past due or impaired.
As the Group and the Company do not hold any collateral, the maximum exposure to credit risk for each class of
financial instruments is the carrying amount of that class of financial instruments presented on the statements of
financial position, except as follows:
Company
2014 2013
Corporate guarantee provided to banks on subsidiaries facilities 3,787.5 4,609.2
The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk from its investments in quoted securities classified as financial
assets at fair value through profit or loss, available-for-sale financial assets and derivative financial instruments. To
manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Group diversifies its portfolio and diversification
of the portfolio is done in accordance with the limits set by the Group.
If the prices of equity securities and derivative financial instruments listed in the respective countries change by 1%
(2013: 1%) respectively with all other variables including tax rate being held constant, the Groups profit after tax and
OCI for the current and previous financial years will be as follows:
2014 Increase/Decrease
Group Profit after tax OCI
Listed equity securities and derivative financial instruments
increase/decrease 1% 22.2 32.6
2013 Increase/Decrease
Group Profit after tax OCI
Listed equity securities and derivative financial instruments
increase/decrease 1% 1.6 47.7
Profit after tax would increase/decrease as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as at fair value through
profit or loss and derivative financial instruments. Other components of equity would increase/decrease as a result of
gains/losses on equity securities classified as available-for-sale.
The Group practises prudent liquidity risk management to minimise the mismatch of financial assets and liabilities. The
Groups cash flow is reviewed regularly to ensure that the Group is able to settle its commitments when they fall due.
The Group manages its liquidity risk with the view to maintaining a healthy level of cash and cash equivalents appropriate
to the operating environment and expected cash flows of the Group. Liquidity requirements are maintained within its
undrawn committed borrowing facilities at all times and are sufficient and available to the Group to meet its obligations.
Generally, surplus cash held by the operating entities over and above the balance required for working capital management
are managed by the Group Treasury. The Group Treasury invests surplus cash in interest bearing accounts, money market
deposits and marketable securities, choosing instruments with appropriate maturities or sufficient liquidity to provide
sufficient headroom as determined by the above-mentioned cash flows of the Group.
The table below analyses the financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the
reporting date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted
cash flows.
The Groups objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Groups ability to continue as a going concern and to
maintain an optimal capital structure so as to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.
In order to optimise the capital structure, or the capital allocation amongst the Groups various businesses, the Group may
adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares and warrants, buy back
issued shares, take on new debt or sell assets to reduce debt.
Consistent with others in the industry, the Group monitors capital utilisation on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is
calculated as total debt divided by total capital. Total debt is calculated as total borrowings (comprising short term and long
term borrowings as shown in the statements of financial position). Total capital is calculated as the sum of total equity and
total debt.
Group
2014 2013
Total debt 12,552.6 13,385.4
Total equity 53,058.7 50,572.6
Total capital 65,611.3 63,958.0
Gearing ratio 19% 21%
There were no changes in the Groups approach to capital management during the current financial year.
The Group was in compliance with externally imposed capital requirements for the financial years ended 31 December 2014
and 2013.
Level 1 : Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 : Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices).
Level 3 : Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).
The following table presents the Groups financial instruments that are measured at fair value.
Company
At 31 December 2014
Available-for-sale financial assets - 200.0 - 200.0
The carrying amount less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair
values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated based on the quoted market prices or
dealer quotes for the similar instruments by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest
rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments. The fair value of current borrowings approximates their
carrying amount.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. A
market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry
group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions
on an arms length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price.
These instruments are included in Level 1.
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is
determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where
it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an
instrument are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2.
If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in Level 3.
There were no transfers between Levels 1 and 2 during the current financial year (2013: Nil).
The following table presents the changes in Level 3 financial instruments for the financial year ended 31 December 2014:
Group
2014 2013
Available-for-sale financial assets
As at 1 January 668.9 825.4
Foreign exchange differences 41.9 39.5
Additions 114.9 167.8
Fair value changes recognised in other comprehensive income 122.4 0.4
Impairment loss recognised in income statement (6.8) -
Repayment (5.3) (3.7)
Disposal (7.9) -
Transfer to investment in associate - (360.5)
As at 31 December 928.1 668.9
Although the Group believes that its estimates of fair values are appropriate, the use of different methodologies or
assumptions could lead to different measurement of fair value. For fair value measurement in Level 3, if the carrying value
changes by 5% (2013: 5%), the impact on equity would be RM46.4 million (2013: RM33.4 million).
5. SEGMENT ANALYSIS
Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the chief operating decision-maker
that are used to make strategic decisions.
The chief operating decision-maker considers the business from both a geographic and industry perspective and has the
following reportable operating segments:
Leisure & Hospitality - This segment includes the hotel, gaming and entertainment businesses, tours & travel
related services and other support services. The contribution from non-gaming operations
is not significant.
Plantation - This segment is involved mainly in oil palm plantations, palm oil milling and related
activities.
Power - This segment is involved in the generation and supply of electric power.
Oil & Gas - This segment is involved in oil & gas exploration, development and production activities.
All other immaterial business segments including investments in equities are aggregated and disclosed under Investments
& Others as they are not of a sufficient size to be reported separately.
The performance of the operating segments is based on a measure of adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation
and amortisation (EBITDA). This measurement basis also excludes the effects of non-recurring items from the operating
segments, such as fair value gains and losses, gain or loss on disposal of financial assets, gain or loss on deemed dilution
of shareholdings in associates, project costs written off, reversal of previously recognised impairment losses, impairment
losses, pre-opening and development expenses, assets written off, gain or loss on disposal of assets and share-based
payment.
Segment assets consist primarily of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, inventories, trade and other
receivables, available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and cash and cash
equivalents. Segment assets exclude interest bearing instruments, joint ventures, associates, deferred tax assets, tax
recoverable and assets classified as held for sale as these assets are managed on a group basis.
Segment liabilities comprise operating liabilities. Segment liabilities exclude interest-bearing instruments, tax payables
and deferred tax liabilities as these liabilities are managed on a group basis.
The Power segment relates mainly to Jangi Farm and the Banten Plant while that for the Meizhou Wan power plant has
been reclassified and disclosed as Discontinued Operations up to 10 July 2014, the completion date of the disposal of
51% shareholding in Fujian Pacific Electric Company Limited (see Note 13). Following the completion of the disposal, the
financial results of the Meizhou Wan power plant have been accounted for as a joint venture of the Group.

The basic and diluted earnings per share of the Group are computed as follows:
Basic earnings per share of the Group is calculated by dividing the profit for the financial year by the weighted average
number of ordinary shares in issue during the financial year.
For the diluted earnings per share calculation, the Groups profit for the financial year is reduced by the lower consolidated
earnings from subsidiaries arising from the potential dilution of the Groups shareholdings in those subsidiaries that have
issued potential ordinary shares that are dilutive. The weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue of the Company
is also adjusted to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares issued by the Company.

This contract entitles the GENM Group to receive interest at floating rates on notional principal amounts and oblige the
UK Group to pay interest at fixed rates on the same notional principal amounts, thus allowing the GENM Group to raise
borrowings at floating rates and swap them into fixed rates. The total notional principal amount of this outstanding IRS
contract at 31 December 2014 was approximately RM359.3 million (2013: RM177.2 million). As at 31 December 2014,
the estimated fair value of this IRS contract was approximately RM5.3 million which was unfavourable to the Group (2013:
RM1.5 million which was favourable to the Group).
The GENP Group has also entered into IRS to hedge the exposure to interest rate risk on its USD borrowing. The total
notional principal amount of this outstanding IRS contract at 31 December 2014 was approximately RM69.5 million
(2013: RM65.7 million). As at 31 December 2014, the estimated fair value of this IRS contract was approximately RM0.2
million which was unfavourable to the Group (2013: RM0.5 million which was favourable to the Group).

This statement is made in accordance with a resolution of the Board dated 26 February 2015.
Before me,
We have audited the financial statements of Genting Berhad on pages 69 to 162 which comprise the statements of financial position as
at 31 December 2014 of the Group and of the Company, the statements of income, statements of comprehensive income, statements
of changes in equity and statements of cash flows of the Group and of the Company for the financial year then ended, and a summary
of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes, as set out on Notes 1 to 50.
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of financial statements so as to give a true and fair view in accordance
with Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia. The Directors are also responsible
for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with
approved standards on auditing in Malaysia. Those standards require that we 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 our judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entitys preparation of
financial statements that give a true and fair view 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 entitys internal control. An audit also includes evaluating
the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the Company as of 31
December 2014 and of their financial performance and cash flows for the financial year then ended in accordance with Financial
Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia.
In accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia, we also report the following:
(a) In our opinion, the accounting and other records and the registers required by the Act to be kept by the Company and its
subsidiaries of which we have acted as auditors have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
(b) We have considered the financial statements and the auditors reports of all the subsidiaries of which we have not acted as
auditors, which are indicated in Note 49 to the financial statements.
(c) We are satisfied that the financial statements of the subsidiaries that have been consolidated with the Companys financial
statements are in form and content appropriate and proper for the purposes of the preparation of the financial statements of the
Group and we have received satisfactory information and explanations required by us for those purposes.
(d) The audit reports on the financial statements of the subsidiaries did not contain any qualification or any adverse comment made
under Section 174(3) of the Act.
The supplementary information set out in Note 51 on page 163 is disclosed to meet the requirement of Bursa Malaysia Securities
Berhad and is not part of the financial statements. The Directors are responsible for the preparation of the supplementary information
in accordance with Guidance on Special Matter No. 1, Determination of Realised and Unrealised Profits or Losses in the Context of
Disclosure Pursuant to Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad Listing Requirements, as issued by the Malaysian Institute of Accountants
(MIA Guidance) and the directive of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad. In our opinion, the supplementary information is prepared,
in all material respects, in accordance with the MIA Guidance and the directive of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad.
OTHER MATTERS

under this resolution will expire at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company or the expiry of the period within which
the next Annual General Meeting is required by law to be held, or the same is revoked or varied by ordinary resolution of the shareholders of the
Company in a general meeting, whichever occurs first.

together with the Companys 2014 Annual Report.

of the Company in a general meeting, whichever is earlier.
