Corporate Development The Board is pleased to inform that the conditions precedent of the Sales and Purchase Agreement for 163 Retail Park have been fully met, making the agreement unconditional as of 23rd September 2024. This milestone not only affirms the value and appeal of our development but also demonstrates the market's recognition of its prime location and quality. The successful completion of this agreement reinforces our position as a developer of highvalue properties and strengthens the company's financial outlook.
For the financial year ended 30 June 2024, YNH Property Bhd (“YNHP” or “the Company”) delivered solid results, with revenue predominantly driven by the sale of Solasta Dutamas, our flagship project located in Kuala Lumpur. Meanwhile, in the state of Perak, the Manjung Commercial Shoplots and Manjung Point Township have been the primary contributors to the Group’s performance, demonstrating the strength of our diversified portfolio. Located in Dutamas, Kuala Lumpur, Solasta Dutamas has a GDV of approximately RM720 million, and is expected to contribute positively to the Group’s earnings for the next 2 years. As at 30th September 2024, the construction of Solasta Dutamas is progressing smoothly, with the first tower already topped out, while the remaining two towers are at the super-structure stage of construction. The project has been well-received by prospective buyers, with over 70% of the total units sold. The strategic location and premium offerings of this project provide a strong outlook for sustained revenue generation. In Perak, our ongoing township development of approximately 700 acres in Seri Manjung is a long-term growth engine for YNHP. The Manjung Point Township residential units and Manjung Commercial Shoplots continue to deliver consistent revenue streams. With a forecasted development horizon of 20 to 30 years, this project positions the Group well for sustained future profitability. The value of our Seri Manjung township has been further enhanced by the presence of key facilities such as AEON Seri Manjung and Pantai Hospital Seri Manjung. These facilities not only improve the quality of life for residents but also increase the attractiveness and long-term value of our developments in this area. Looking ahead, the Group is preparing to launch several high-potential projects, including Residensi Bangsar South, located adjacent to KTM Angkasapuri, Residensi Bangsar South has an estimated GDV of RM470 million, and is expected to launch in 2025 subject to final authority approvals. Another prestigious future project by YNHP is the development of Menara YNH. The commercial development spans around 3 acres along Jalan Sultan Ismail, positioned within the bustling Golden Triangle of Kuala Lumpur City Centre. The location of Menara YNH offers easy accessibility and close proximity to public transport facilities. This development has an internal targeted GDV of approximately RM4 billion. The Menara YNH mixed development will comprise the mix of hotel, service apartments and shopping mall. Contribution from this project which includes rental income is expected to contribute positively to the Group’s future earnings. Last but not least, 163 Retail Park SPA is unconditional as of 23rd September 2024. This provides certainty of the final payment of Balance Purchase Price due by 22nd December 2024. Approximately RM161 million of the sales proceeds will be strategically allocated to reduce the company's borrowings, significantly improving our gearing ratio and generating substantial savings in interest expenses. The Group remains focused on creating long-term value for our shareholders by pursuing strategic growth opportunities, optimizing our project portfolio, and maintaining prudent financial management. With a strong project pipeline, continued demand for quality properties, and supportive market conditions, we are confident that YNHP is well-positioned for sustainable growth in the coming years.

The company’s leadership includes Chairman and Executive Director Datuk Dr. Yu Kuan Chon and Chief Executive Officer Kuan Yu.  Additionally, the Audit Committee is chaired by Senior Independent Non-Executive Director Khong Kam Hou. 
Removing and preventing accounting fraud is crucial to maintaining integrity, transparency, and trust within an organization. Here are some steps that can help address and prevent accounting fraud:
1. Establish Strong Internal Controls
• Segregation of Duties: Divide financial responsibilities so no single person handles all aspects of a transaction. • Authorization and Approval Systems: Ensure all financial transactions are authorized by appropriate personnel. • Access Control: Restrict access to financial systems to only those who need it. • Regular Audits: Conduct regular internal and external audits to detect irregularities and ensure compliance.
2. Implement Ethical Standards and Compliance Programs
• Code of Conduct: Develop a clear code of ethics and ensure all employees are familiar with it. • Training Programs: Provide training on ethical standards, anti-fraud policies, and the consequences of fraud. • Compliance Monitoring: Continuously monitor adherence to regulations and internal policies.
3. Use Data Analytics and Forensic Accounting
• Data Monitoring Tools: Employ software to analyze transactions and flag unusual patterns or outliers. • Forensic Accounting: Consider having forensic accountants review the financials if fraud is suspected.
4. Foster a Culture of Transparency and Accountability
• Whistleblower Programs: Implement a system for employees to report suspicious activities anonymously. • Open Communication: Encourage open communication between departments and maintain a transparent environment.
5. Strengthen Financial Oversight
• Audit Committee Oversight: Ensure that an independent audit committee oversees the company’s financial reporting. • Regular Financial Reviews: Conduct regular reviews of financial statements, with cross-verification by multiple team members. • Detailed Reconciliation: Perform regular reconciliation of bank statements, accounts, and balance sheets.
6. Regularly Update Anti-Fraud Measures
• Stay Updated on Fraud Schemes: Fraudsters constantly develop new methods, so staying informed on the latest fraud tactics is crucial. • Review Policies and Procedures: Regularly update financial policies to adapt to new risks and regulatory requirements.
7. Engage with External Auditors
• Independent Audits: Engage reputable third-party auditors to review financial statements independently. • Periodic Audits: Carry out periodic, unannounced audits to deter fraudulent behavior.
Taking these actions helps to establish a strong foundation against accounting fraud and promotes an ethical organizational culture.
