(a) Provision for warranty is based on current volumes of products sold still under warranty and on historic quality rates as well as
estimates and assumptions regarding future quality rates for new products.
(b) Provision for compensation claim is for a tenant’s renovation costs and general damages arising from an early termination of
a tenancy agreement by the Company. On 27 September 2011, the Court of Appeal had allowed the Company’s appeal against
the decision handed down by the High Court in favour of the tenant and directed that the matter be remitted back to the High
Court for a full trial.
During the case management held on 30 June 2020, the Court has directed that the matter to be struck out by virtue of Order
34 Rule 6 of Rules of Court 2012 with no order as to costs and no liberty to file afresh, resulting a reversal of RM2,120,000 which
has been reflected in Note 7.
