Management s Responsibility for the Separate Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these separate financial statements in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of separate 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 separate financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Philippine Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the separate financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the separate financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the separate financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity s preparation and fair presentation of the separate 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 separate financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified audit opinion. 2015 R.G.

ABCD Basis for Qualified Opinion The Parent Company carries its investments in United Coconut Planters Bank (UCPB) shares as available-for-sale (AFS) financial assets at cost as disclosed in Note 11 of the notes to financial statements. As required under Philippine Financial Reporting Standards, such AFS financial assets should have been carried at cost less impairment losses. Had the Parent Company recognized such impairment losses, the carrying amounts of the AFS financial assets and retained earnings as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 should have been reduced by P552 million. Qualified Opinion In our opinion, except for the possible effects on the financial statements of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the separate financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the unconsolidated financial position of the Parent Company as at December 31, 2014 and 2013, and its unconsolidated financial performance and its unconsolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards. Emphasis of Matter Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 11 to the financial statements which discusses the Executive Orders (EOs) issued by the President of the Republic of the Philippines regarding the inventory, reconveyance, utilization and privatization of coco levy assets that reference the decision rendered by the Supreme Court involving the ownership of certain sequestered shares in UCPB, and the ownership over the Coconut Industry Investment Fund (CIIF) Oil Mills Companies, the Fourteen (14) CIIF Holding Companies and the proceeds of the redeemed shares of stock in San Miguel Corporation (SMC) held by the 14 CIIF Holding Companies, together with all dividends declared, paid and issued thereon as well as any increments thereto arising from, but not limited to, exercise of pre-emptive rights, is owned by the Republic of the Philippines for the benefit of the coconut farmers, thus making it a part of the coco levy assets. Since the manner by which the reconveyance, utilization and privatization of the coco levy assets to be undertaken has not been defined by the implementing authorities, the Board of Directors and management will be assessing the impact of the EOs and the Supreme Court Decision on the Parent Company moving forward and believe that, as at December 31, 2014, it is reasonable to maintain the status quo and continue with its normal business operations. Report on the Supplementary Information Required Under Revenue Regulations No. 15-2010 of the Bureau of Internal Revenue Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplementary information in Note 40 to the financial statements is presented for purposes of filing with the Bureau of Internal Revenue and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such supplementary information is the responsibility of the management. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic financial statements.

UNITED COCONUT PLANTERS LIFE ASSURANCE CORPORATION NOTES TO THE SEPARATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Reporting Entity The United Coconut Planters Life Assurance Corporation (the Parent Company ) was incorporated on March 20, 1978 and is domiciled in the Republic of the Philippines. The Parent Company was formed to undertake life insurance business, including accident and health insurance; to write insurance contracts providing for all risks, hazards, guarantees and contingencies to which life, accident or health insurance is applicable; to grant endowment and annuities; to issue insurance policies providing for participation or nonparticipation of profits; to reinsure all or part of the risks underwritten by the Parent Company; to undertake all kinds of reinsurance to the extent allowed by the law; and to act as agent or general agent of another insurance company. The Parent Company has a Certificate of Authority No. 2013/86R issued by the Insurance Commission (IC) to transact in life insurance business until December 31, 2015. The registered office address of the Parent Company is at Cocolife Building, 6774 Ayala Avenue, Makati City. 2. Basis of Preparation Statement of Compliance The separate financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRSs). PFRSs are based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). PFRSs which are issued by the Philippine Financial Reporting Standards Council (FRSC), consist of PFRSs, Philippine Accounting Standards (PASs), and Philippine Interpretations. In accordance with PFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements, the Parent Company also prepares and issues consolidated financial statements for the same period in which it consolidates its investments in subsidiaries. Such consolidated financial statements provide information about the economic activities of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries. The separate financial statements should be read together with the Parent Company s consolidated financial statements as at and for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 in order to obtain full information on the consolidated financial position and financial performance of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries. The separate financial statements of the Parent Company are intended for management s use and for filing with the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR). These financial statements account for the Parent Company s investments in subsidiaries at cost (see Note 15) in accordance with the provisions of PAS 27, Separate Financial Statements. The accompanying separate financial statements of the Parent Company were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors (BOD) on April 29, 2015.
Basis of Preparation The separate financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following accounts which are measured on each reporting date as follows: Items Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) Available-for-sale (AFS) financial assets Net pension liability Measurement bases Fair value through profit or loss Fair value through other comprehensive income Present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of the plan assets Functional and Presentation Currency The separate financial statements are presented in Philippine peso, which is the Parent Company s functional currency. All financial information presented in Philippine peso has been rounded off to the nearest peso, except as otherwise indicated. Use of Judgments and Estimates The preparation of the separate financial statements in accordance with PFRSs requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, if any. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about the carrying amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may however differ from estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized prospectively. Information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the separate financial statements are described in Note 4 to the separate financial statements. 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all years presented in these separate financial statements. Certain comparative amounts in the separate statements of comprehensive income have been reclassified as a result of a change in the classification of certain accounts in the current year (see Note 39). - 2 -
Adoption of New or Revised Standards, Amendments to Standards and Interpretations The Parent Company has adopted the following amendments to standards and interpretations starting January 1, 2014. The adoption of these amendments to standards and interpretations did not have any significant impact on the Parent Company s separate financial statements. Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Amendments to Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation - PAS 32). These amendments clarify that: An entity currently has a legally enforceable right to set-off if that right is: - not contingent on a future event; and - enforceable both in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the entity and all counterparties; and Gross settlement is equivalent to net settlement if and only if the gross settlement mechanism has features that: - eliminate or result in insignificant credit and liquidity risk; and - process receivables and payables in a single settlement process or cycle. Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-financial Assets (Amendments to Impairment of Assets - PAS 36). These narrow-scope amendments to PAS 36 address the disclosure of information about the recoverable amount of impaired assets if that amount is based on fair value less costs of disposal. The amendments clarified that the scope of those disclosures is limited to the recoverable amount of impaired assets that is based on fair value less costs of disposal. Measurement of short-term receivables and payables (Amendment to Fair Value Measurement - PFRS 13). Amendment to PFRS 13 is part of the Annual Improvements to PFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle. The amendment clarifies that, in issuing PFRS 13 and making consequential amendments to Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (PAS 39) and Financial Instruments (PFRS 9), the intention is not to prevent entities from measuring short-term receivables and payables that have no stated interest rate at their invoiced amounts without discounting, if the effect of not discounting is immaterial. The amendment to PFRS 13 is effective immediately. New or Revised Standards, Amendments to Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted A number of new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2014. However, the Parent Company have not applied the following new or amended standards in preparing these separate financial statements. The Parent Company is assessing the potential impact on its financial statements resulting from the application of the new standards. - 3 -
Effective July 1, 2014 Annual improvements to PFRSs 2010-2012 and 2011-2013 Cycles - Amendments were made to a total of nine standards, with changes made to the standards on business combinations and fair value measurement in both cycles. Most amendments will apply prospectively for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2014. Earlier application is permitted, in which case the related consequential amendments to other PFRSs would also apply. Special transition requirements have been set for amendments to the following standards: Share-based Payment (PFRS 2), Property, Plant and Equipment (PAS 16), Intangible Assets (PAS 38) and Investment Property (PAS 40). Below is the amendment to PFRSs, which may be applicable to the Parent Company: Definition of related party (Amendment to PAS 24).The definition of a related party is extended to include a management entity that provides key management personnel (KMP) services to the reporting entity, either directly or through a group entity. For related party transactions that arise when KMP services are provided to a reporting entity, the reporting entity is required to separately disclose the amounts that it has recognized as an expense for those services that are provided by a management entity; however, it is not required to look through management entity and disclose compensation paid by management entity to the individuals providing the KMP services. The reporting entity will also need to disclose other transactions with management entity under the existing disclosure requirements of PAS 24 - e.g. loans. Effective January 1, 2016 Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortization (Amendments to PAS 16 and PAS 38). The amendments to PAS 38, Intangible Assets introduce a rebuttable presumption that the use of revenue-based amortization methods for intangible assets is inappropriate. This presumption can be overcome only when revenue and the consumption of the economic benefits of the intangible asset are highly correlated, or when the intangible asset is expressed as a measure of revenue. The amendments to PAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment explicitly state that revenue-based methods of depreciation cannot be used for property, plant and equipment. This is because such methods reflect factors other than the consumption of economic benefits embodied in the asset - e.g. changes in sales volumes and prices. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016, and are to be applied prospectively. Early application is permitted. Equity Method in Separate Financial Statements (Amendments to PAS 27). The amendments allow the use of the equity method in separate financial statements, and apply to the accounting not only for associates and joint ventures, but also for subsidiaries. The amendments apply retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. - 4 -
Effective January 1, 2018 PFRS 9, Financial Instruments (2014). PFRS 9 (2014) replaces PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and supersedes the previously published versions of PFRS 9 that introduced new classifications and measurement requirements (in 2009 and 2010) and a new hedge accounting model (in 2013). PFRS 9 includes revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial assets, including a new expected credit loss model for calculating impairment, guidance on own credit risk on financial liabilities measured at fair value and supplements the new general hedge accounting requirements published in 2013. PFRS 9 incorporates new hedge accounting requirements that represent a major overhaul of hedge accounting and introduces significant improvements by aligning the accounting more closely with risk management. The new standard is to be applied retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted. Insurance Contracts Production Classification Insurance contracts are defined as those contracts under which the Parent Company (the insurer) accepts significant insurance risk from another party (the policyholders) by agreeing to compensate the policyholders if a specified uncertain future event (the insured event) adversely affects the policyholder. As a general guideline, the Parent Company defines significant insurance risk as the possibility of having to pay benefits on the occurrence of an insured event that is significantly greater than the benefits payable if the insured event did not occur. Insurance contracts can also transfer financial risk. Investment contracts are those contracts that transfer significant financial risk and no significant insurance risk. Financial risk is the risk of a possible future change in one or more of a specified interest rate, security price, commodity price, foreign exchange rate, index of price or rates, credit rating or credit index or other variables, provided in the case of non-financial variable that the variable is not specific to a party to the contract. Once a contract has been classified as an insurance contract, it remains an insurance contract for the remainder of its lifetime, even if the insurance risk reduces significantly during the period, unless all rights and obligations are extinguished or expired. Investment contracts can, however, be reclassified as insurance contracts after inception if the insurance risk becomes significant. Insurance and investment contracts are further classified as being with and without Discretionary Participation Feature (DPF). DPF is a contractual right to receive, as a supplement to guaranteed benefits, additional benefits that are: Likely to be a significant portion of the total contractual benefits; The amount or timing of which is contractually at the discretion of the issuer; and Contractually based on the following: Performance of a specified pool of contracts or a specified type of contract; or Realized or an unrealized investment returns on a specified pool of assets held by the issuer; or The profit or loss of the Parent Company, fund or other entity that issues the contract. - 5 -
The additional benefits include policy dividends that are declared annually, the amounts of which are computed using actuarial methods and assumptions, and are included under Policyholders dividends account in profit or loss with the corresponding liability recognized under the Reserve for policyholders dividends account in the separate statements of financial position. For financial options and guarantees which are not closely related to the host insurance contract, bifurcation is required to measure these embedded financial derivatives separately at FVPL. Bifurcation is not required if the embedded derivative itself is an insurance contract or when the host insurance contract itself is measured at FVPL. As such, the Parent Company does not separately measure options to surrender insurance contracts for a fixed amount (or an amount based on a fixed amount and an interest rate). Likewise, the embedded derivative in unit-linked insurance contracts linking the payments on the contract to units of an internal investment fund meets the definition of an insurance contract and is not, therefore, accounted for separately from the host insurance contract. Reinsurance Contracts Held Contracts entered into by the Parent Company with reinsurers under which the Parent Company is compensated for losses on one or more insurance contracts are classified as reinsurance contracts held. The benefits to which the Parent Company is entitled under its insurance contracts held are recognized as reinsurance assets. These assets consist of short-term balances due from reinsurers, as well as longer term receivables that are dependent on the expected claims and benefits arising under the related reinsured insurance contracts. Amounts recoverable from or due to reinsurers are measured consistently with the amounts associated with the reinsured insurance contracts and in accordance with the terms of each reinsurance contracts. Liabilities arising from these contracts are primarily premiums payable and are recognized as an expense when due. These liabilities are presented under Insurance payables account in the separate statements of financial position. An impairment review is performed at each reporting date or more frequently when an indication of impairment arises during the reporting year. Impairment occurs when objective evidence as a result of an event that occurred after initial recognition that the Parent Company may not recover outstanding amounts under the terms of the contract and when the impact on the amounts that the Parent Company will receive from the reinsurer can be measured reliably. Any impairment loss determined is recognized in profit or loss. Ceded reinsurance arrangements do not relieve the Parent Company from their obligations to the policyholders. The Parent Company also assumes reinsurance risk in the normal course of its business. Premiums and claims on assumed reinsurance are recognized as income and expense in the same manner as they would be if the reinsurance were considered direct business, taking into account the product classification of the reinsured business. The liabilities arising from these contracts are primarily claims and benefits payables and estimated in a manner consistent with the associated reinsurance contracts. These liabilities are presented under Insurance payables account in the separate statements of financial position. Premiums and claims are presented on a gross basis for both ceded and assumed reinsurance. - 6 -
Assets or liabilities from these contracts are derecognized when the contractual right is extinguished or expired or when the contract is transferred to another party. Insurance Contact Liabilities Legal Policy Reserves. Life insurance contract liabilities are recognized when the contracts are entered into and the premiums are recognized. These are determined by the Parent Company s actuary in accordance with the requirements of the Insurance Code (the Code ) and are calculated on the basis of a prudent prospective actuarial valuation method where the assumptions used depend in the operation of each life insurance product. These reserves represent the amounts which, together with future premiums and investment income, are required to discharge the obligations of the insurance contracts and to pay expenses related to the administration of those contracts. These reserves are determined using generally accepted actuarial practices and have been approved by the Insurance Commission (IC) at the product approval stage. Insurance Contracts with Fixed and Guaranteed Terms. A liability for contractual benefit expected to be incurred in the future is recorded when premiums are recognized. The liability is determined as the expected discounted value of the benefit payment less the expected discounted value of the theoretical premiums that would be required to meet the benefits based on the valuation assumptions used. The liability is based on mortality, morbidity and investments income assumptions that are established at the time the contract is issued. The Parent Company has different assumptions for different products. However, liabilities for contractual benefits are computed to comply with statutory requirements using the standard table of mortality with interest to be determined by IC. Reserves are computed per thousand of sum insured and depend on the issue age and policy duration. Unit-linked Insurance Contracts. A unit-linked insurance contract is an insurance contract linking payments to units of an internal investment fund set up by the Parent Company with the consideration received from the policyholders. The investment funds supporting the linked policies are maintained in segregated accounts in conformity with Philippine laws and regulations. The liability for such contracts is the higher amount between the policyholder s investment fund balance and the minimum guaranteed amount stated in the policy contract. Revenue from unit-linked insurance contracts consists of premiums received and policy administration fees. The reserve for unit-linked liabilities are increased by additional deposits and changes in unit prices and decreased by policy administration fees, fund charges, mortality and surrender charges and any withdrawals. As at the reporting date, this reserve is computed on the basis of the number of units allocated to the policyholders multiplied by the unit price of the underlying investment funds. Liability Adequacy Test. Liability adequacy tests are performed annually to ensure the adequacy of the insurance contract liabilities. In performing these tests, current best estimates of future contractual cash flows, claims handling and policy administration expenses are used. Any deficiency is immediately charged against the Parent Company s profit or loss initially by establishing a provision for losses arising from the liability adequacy tests. - 7 -
Reserve for Policyholders Dividends DPF is a contractual right that gives policyholders the right to receive supplementary discretionary returns through participation in the surplus arising from participating business. These returns are subject to the discretion of the Parent Company and are within the constraints of the terms and conditions of the contract. For group commercial and farmers lines, the Parent Company sets up the policyholders dividends due and accrued for all groups which have participating feature based on the agreed experience refund formula and an assessment of the individual groups prospective cash flows and operating results. For individual policyholders, all dividends due and accrued are carried for participating policies using an estimated dividend scale expected to be declared based on the Parent Company s profit emergence for the individual line. Insurance Receivables and Payables Receivables and payables are recognized when due. Insurance receivables and payables include amounts due from agents and policyholders and amounts due to reinsurers. If there is objective evidence that the insurance receivable is impaired, the Parent Company reduces the carrying amount of the insurance receivable and recognizes the impairment loss in profit or loss. Premium Deposit Fund This represents fund which will be used for payment of any unpaid premiums under the policy. The fund earns interest of 1.50% and 3.00% per annum for dollar and peso denominated policy, respectively, which is credited to the fund. The accumulated fund shall not exceed the total future premium payments under the policy. Financial Instruments Classification. The Parent Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), available-for-sale (AFS) financial assets, held-to-maturity (HTM) investments and loans and receivables. The Parent Company classifies its financial liabilities either as financial liabilities at FVPL or other financial liabilities. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired or incurred. Management determines the classification of its financial instruments at initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates such designation at every reporting date. Financial Assets or Financial Liabilities at FVPL. This category consists of financial instruments that are held for trading or designated by management on initial recognition. Financial assets and financial liabilities at FVPL are recorded in the separate statements of financial position at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in profit or loss. Financial assets or financial liabilities are allowed to be designated by management on initial recognition in this category when the following criteria are met: The designation eliminates or significantly reduces the inconsistent treatment that would otherwise arise from measuring the assets or liabilities or recognizing gains or losses on them on a different basis; or The assets and liabilities are part of a group of financial assets, financial liabilities or both which are managed and their performance evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy; or - 8 -
The financial instrument contains an embedded derivative, unless the embedded derivative does not significantly modify the cash flows or, it is clear, with little or no analysis, that it would not be bifurcated. Held-for-trading securities are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition, unless they are no longer held for the purpose of being sold or repurchased in the near term and the following conditions are met: If the financial asset would have met the definition of loans and receivables (if the financial asset had not been required to be classified as held-for-trading at initial recognition), then it may be reclassified if the Parent Company has the intention and the ability to hold the financial asset in the foreseeable future or until maturity; and The financial asset may be reclassified out of the held-for-trading securities category only under rare circumstances. As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Parent Company does not have any financial asset or financial liabilities designated by management as financial assets or financial liabilities at FVPL. However, the Parent Company s financial assets classified as heldfor-trading investments amounted to P1.14 billion and P0.76 billion as at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively (see Note 10). As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Parent Company s held-for-trading securities include government debt and equity securities. HTM Investments. HTM investments are quoted non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities for which management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Where the Parent Company sells or reclassifies other than an insignificant amount of HTM investments, the entire category would be tainted and reclassified at fair value as AFS financial assets. After initial measurement, these investments are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for impairment. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate (EIR). The amortization, if any, is included as part of interest income in profit or loss. As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Parent Company has no financial assets classified as HTM investments. AFS Financial Assets. AFS financial assets are financial assets which are designated as such, or do not qualify to be classified or have not been classified under any other financial asset category. They are purchased and held indefinitely and may be sold in response to liquidity requirements or changes in market conditions. As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Parent Company s AFS financial assets amounted to P9.05 million and P8.34 million, respectively, and composed of equity and government debt securities (see Note 11). Loans and Receivables. Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that are not quoted in an active market. These are not entered into with the intention of immediate or short-term resale and are not held for trading. - 9 -
As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Parent Company s cash and cash equivalents, insurance receivables, loans and receivables, accrued income, reinsurance assets and other assets pertaining to lease and leasehold deposits and refundable deposits are classified under this category. Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash includes cash on hand and in banks. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Other Financial Liabilities. Issued financial instruments or their component, which are not classified as at FVPL are classified as other financial liabilities where the substance of the contractual arrangement results in the Parent Company having an obligation either to deliver cash or another financial asset to the holder or lender, or to satisfy the obligation other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the Parent Company s own equity instruments. This category includes the Parent Company s policy and contract claims under Insurance contract liabilities account, reserve for policyholders dividends, premium deposit funds excluding amounts received which will be applied to premiums due, insurance payables and accounts payable and accrued expenses. Recognition and Measurements Financial instruments are recognized in the separate statements of financial position when the Parent Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace are recognized on the trade date. Financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at FVPL. Financial assets carried at FVPL are initially recognized at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss. AFS financial assets and financial assets at FVPL are subsequently carried at fair value except for investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are carried at cost. Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are presented in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Changes in the fair value of AFS financial assets are recognized in other comprehensive income. When securities classified as AFS are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognized in equity are included in profit or loss. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method and dividend income on financial assets at FVPL and AFS financial assets are recognized in profit or loss as part of Investment income when the Parent Company s right to receive payments is established. - 10 -
Determination of Fair Value A number of the Parent Company s accounting policies require the determination of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Determination of fair values requires evaluating, among others, whether the asset or liability is quoted or not in an active market. Included in the evaluation on whether an asset or liability is quoted in an active market is the determination of the principal market or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market, and whether the Parent Company can enter into a transaction at the price in that market at the measurement date. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes, when necessary, based on the estimated amounts that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction in the principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. When applicable, the Parent Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. Impairment of Financial Assets The Parent Company assesses at each reporting date whether a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred loss event ) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the borrower or a group of borrowers is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization and where observable data indicate that there is measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults. Loans and Receivables. The Parent Company first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Parent Company determines that no objectives evidence of impairment exists for individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognized are not included in a collective assessment for impairment. For the purpose of a collective evaluation of impairment, loans and receivables are grouped on the basis of credit risk characteristics such as type of borrower, collateral type, credit and payment status, and term. - 11 -
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the excess of loan s carrying amount over its net realizable value, based on the present value of the estimated future cash flows from the asset. The present value of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the loan s original EIR. Time value is generally not considered when the effect of discounting is not material. If a loan has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current EIR, adjusted for the original credit risk premium. The calculation of the present value of the estimated future cash flows of a collateral-dependent loan reflects the cash flows that may result from foreclosure less costs for obtaining and selling the collateral. Any impairment loss determined is recognized in profit or loss. The carrying amount of an impaired loan is reduced to its net realizable value through the use of an allowance account. For an impaired loan, interest income continues to be recognized using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the allowance for impairment loss decreases because of an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed to profit or loss to the extent that the resulting carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortized cost had no impairment loss been recognized. Financial assets, particularly trade receivables, are written off to the extent of the amount determined by management to be uncollectible. Those with pending cases in court are written-off upon management s approval. AFS Financial Assets Carried at Fair Value. In case of equity investments classified as AFS financial assets, impairment indicators would include a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the investments below its cost. Where there is objective evidence of impairment, the cumulative loss in equity, measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognized, is recorded in profit or loss. Subsequent increase in the fair value of an impaired AFS equity security is recognized in other comprehensive income. In the case of AFS debt securities, impairment is assessed based on the same criteria as financial assets carried at amortized cost. Interest continues to be accrued at the EIR on the reduced carrying amount of the asset and is recorded as part of interest income in profit or loss. If, in a subsequent year, the fair value of a debt instrument increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized, the impairment loss is reversed in profit or loss to the extent that the resulting carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its carrying amount had no impairment loss been recognized. AFS Financial Assets Carried at Cost. If there is an objective evidence that an impairment loss on an unquoted equity instrument that is not carried at fair value because its fair value cannot be reliably measured, or on derivative asset that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity instrument has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account. - 12 -
Offsetting Financial Instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Parent Company s separate statements of financial position if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. This is generally not the case with master netting agreements, thus, the related assets and liabilities are presented on a gross basis in the separate statements of financial position. Income and expense are presented on a net basis only when permitted under PFRSs, such as in the case of any realized gains or losses arising from the Parent Company s trading activities. Classification of Financial Instruments between Debt and Equity A financial instrument is classified as debt if it has a contractual obligation to: Deliver cash or another financial asset to another entity, or Exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another entity under conditions that are potentially unfavorable to the Parent Company. If the Parent Company does not have an unconditional right to avoid delivering cash or another financial asset to settle its contractual obligation, the obligation meets the definition of a financial liability. Derecognition of Financial Assets and Liabilities Financial Assets. A financial asset (or, where applicable a part of a financial asset or part of a group of financial assets) is derecognized when: The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or The Parent Company retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a pass-through arrangement; or The Parent Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either: (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) has neither transferred nor retained the risk and rewards of the asset but has transferred the control of the asset. Where the Parent Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognized to the extent of the Parent Company s continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Parent Company could be required to repay. Financial Liabilities. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or has expired. Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, with the difference in the respective carrying amounts recognized in profit or loss. - 13 -
Investments in Subsidiaries and Associate A subsidiary is an entity over which the Parent Company has control. There is control when the Parent Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect returns through its power over the entity. Following the provisions of PAS 27, on the preparation of separate financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost, less any impairment in value. The Parent Company recognizes income from the investment in subsidiaries only to the extent that the Parent Company receives distributions from accumulated profits of the investee arising after the date of acquisition. Distributions received in excess of such profits are regarded as a return of investment and are recognized as a reduction from the cost of the investment. An associate, on the other hand, pertains to an entity over which the Parent Company has significant influence but not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Cost of investments in subsidiaries and associate includes the purchase price and other costs directly attributable to the acquisition of the investment such as professional fees for legal services, transfer taxes and other transaction costs. This includes any excess of the cost of the acquisition over the fair value of identifiable net assets of a subsidiary or an associate at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, investments in shares of stock of associates are measured at cost. Dividend income on these associates is recognized when declared from accumulated profits of the investee. Investments in subsidiaries and associate are derecognized upon sale or disposal. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition is recognized in profit or loss. Gain or loss is computed as the difference between the proceeds from the disposal and its carrying amount. Real Estate Inventories Real estate inventories consist of columbary units. These are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value (NRV). NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Cost includes acquisition costs of columbary units and those costs incurred for the development and improvement of the properties. Investment Properties Properties held for long-term yields or for capital appreciation or for both, are classified as investment properties. These properties are initially measured at cost, which includes transaction costs, but excludes day-to-day servicing costs. Replacement cost is capitalized if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the entity and the cost of the item can be reliably measured. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognized. Subsequently, at each reporting date, such properties are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment in value. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life of ten (10) years. Transfers are made to investment properties when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by ending of owner occupation, commencement of an operating lease to another party or ending of construction or development. - 14 -
Transfers are made from investment properties when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by commencement of owner occupation or commencement of development with a view to sell. Investment properties are derecognized when either their use change or they have been disposed of or when the investment properties are permanently withdrawn from use and no future benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gain or loss on the retirement or disposal of investment properties is recognized in profit or loss in the year of retirement or disposal. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization and any allowance for impairment in value. The initial cost of property and equipment comprises its purchase price, including any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Depreciation and amortization are calculated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment as follows: Number of Years Buildings and leasehold improvements 5-10 or lease term, whichever is shorter Transportation equipment 5 Office furniture, fixtures and equipment 5 Subsequent costs are included in the asset s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Parent Company and the cost of the item can be reliably measured. All other repairs and maintenance costs are charged against profit or loss during the period in which these are incurred. The property and equipment s residual values, estimated useful lives and depreciation and amortization method are reviewed periodically to ensure that the residual value, period and method of depreciation and amortization are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property and equipment. Fully depreciated assets are retained in the accounts until they are no longer in use, at which time, the cost and the related accumulated depreciation and amortization are written off. An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the original of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognized. - 15 -
Intangible Asset Intangible asset pertains to the Parent Company s computer software. Costs incurred to acquire computer software (not an integral part of its related hardware) and bring it to its intended use are capitalized. These costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from three (3) to five (5) years. Cost directly associated with the development of identifiable computer software that generate expected future benefits to the Parent Company are recognized. All other costs of developing and maintaining computer software are recognized as expense when incurred. Gain or losses arising from the derecognition of the computer software are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in profit or loss. Impairment of Non-financial Assets This accounting policy primarily applies to the Parent Company s real estate inventories, investment properties, property and equipment, and intangible asset. At each reporting date, the Parent Company assesses whether there is any indication that its non-financial assets may be impaired. When an indicator of impairment exists, the Parent Company estimates the recoverable amount of the impaired assets. The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are largely independent cash inflows (cash-generating unit). Value in use is the present value of future cash flows expected to be derived from an asset while fair value less costs of disposal is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties less cost of disposal. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the impaired asset is written down to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss in the period in which it arises. An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment loss may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. The reversal can be made only to the extent that the resulting carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized. Such reversal is recognized in profit or loss. After such a reversal, the depreciation and amortization is adjusted in future years to allocate the asset s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining life. Provisions Provisions are recognized when the Parent Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past event, it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses. - 16 -
Provisions are measured at the present value of the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risk specific to the obligation. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense. Where the Parent Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognized only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in profit or loss net of any reimbursement. Net Pension Liability The Parent Company s net obligation in respect of the defined benefit plan is calculated by estimating the amount of the future benefit that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, discounting that amount and deducting the fair value of any plan assets. The calculation of defined benefit obligation is performed on a periodic basis by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a potential asset for the Parent Company, the recognized asset is limited to the present value of economic benefits available in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. Remeasurements of the net pension liability, which comprise actuarial gains and losses, return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest), are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income. The Parent Company determines the net interest expense (income) on the net pension liability (asset) for the period by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation at the beginning of the annual period to the net pension liability (asset), taking into account any changes in the net defined liability (asset) during the period as a result of contributions and benefit payments. Net interest expense and other expenses related to the defined benefit plan are recognized in profit or loss. When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefit that relates to past service or the gain or loss on curtailment is recognized immediately in profit or loss. Short-term Employee Benefits Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the Parent Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably. Other Long-term Employee Benefits The Parent Company s net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. That benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Remeasurements are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Termination Benefits Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier of when the Parent Company can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the Parent Company recognizes costs for restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be settled wholly within twelve months from the end of the reporting period, then they are discounted. - 17 -
Equity Capital Stock. Capital stock is measured at par value for all shares issued. Contributed Surplus. Contributed surplus represents additional contribution of shareholders as provided under the Code. Retained Earnings. Retained earnings represent the cumulative balance of the net income or loss of the Parent Company, net of any dividend distribution. Revaluation Reserve. Revaluation reserve is comprised of the following: (1) gains and losses due to the revaluation of AFS financial assets; and (2) actuarial gains and losses from the remeasurement of the net pension liability. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the Parent Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized: Net Premium Net premium is recognized as gross premium on insurance contracts less reinsurance premiums. Gross Premium on Insurance Contracts. Premiums arising from insurance contracts are initially recognized as income on the effective date of the insurance policies. Subsequent to initial recognition, gross earned premiums on life insurance contracts are recognized as revenue at the date when payments are due. Reinsurance Premiums Ceded. Gross reinsurance premiums on traditional and variable contracts are recognized as an expense when the policy becomes effective. Investment Income The Parent Company s investment income is comprised of interest income; fair value gain (loss) of financial assets at FVPL; dividend income; rental income; and gain (loss) on sale of AFS financial assets, real estate inventories and investment properties. Interest Income. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective interest method. The EIR is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset. The EIR is established on initial recognition of the financial asset and is not revised subsequently. When the related financial asset becomes impaired, the recognition of interest income is suspended and/or limited up to the extent of cash collections received. The calculation of the EIR includes all fees, transaction costs, and discounts or premiums that are an integral part of the EIR. Transaction costs are incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or disposal of a financial asset. Dividend Income. Dividend income is recognized when the shareholder s right to receive payment is established. Rental Income. Rental income from investment properties is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. - 18 -
Gain (loss) on Sale of AFS Financial Assets. Gain (loss) on the sale of AFS financial assets, other than those classified as financial assets at FVPL are calculated as the difference between net sales proceeds and acquisition cost less any impairment in value. Gain (loss) on the sale of AFS financial assets are recognized in profit or loss when the sales transaction occurred. Gain on Sale of Real Estate Inventory. Revenue from the sale of real estate inventory is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable less the cost of real estate inventory at the date of sale. Revenue is recognized when significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs can be estimated reliably, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. The transfer of risk and reward occurs when the rights to the real estate inventory is delivered to the customer. Service Fees Insurance contract of the policyholders are charged for policy administration services, surrenders and other contract fees. These fees and charges are recognized as revenue over the period in which the related services are performed. Other Income Income from other sources is recognized when earned. Net Benefits and Claims The Parent Company s net benefits and claims consist of gross benefits and claims, reinsurers share on benefits and claims, gross change in insurance contract liabilities and reinsurers share on gross change in insurance contract liabilities. Gross Benefits and Claims. Benefits and claims consist of benefits and claims of the policyholders, which includes excess benefit claims for unit-linked contracts. Death claims and surrenders are recorded on the basis of notifications received. Maturities and annuity payments are recorded when due. Reinsurers Share on Benefits and Claims. Reinsurers share on benefits and claims pertains to the amount recoverable from reinsurers for recognized claims during the year. Gross Change in Insurance Contract Liabilities. Gross change in insurance contract liabilities represents the change in the valuation of legal policy reserves under Insurance contract liabilities account in the separate statements of financial position. Reinsurers Share on Gross Change in Insurance Contract Liabilities. Reinsurers share on gross change in insurance contract liabilities pertains to the reinsurers share in the change in the valuation of legal policy reserves under Insurance contract liabilities account in the separate statements of financial position. Operating and Administrative Expenses Expenses are recognized when decrease in future economic benefits related to a decrease in an asset or an increase of a liability has arisen that can be measured reliably. Expenses are recognized when incurred. General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses, other underwriting expense and other investment expense, except for lease agreements, are recognized as expense as they are incurred. - 19 -
Commissions. Commissions are recognized when the insurance contracts are entered into and the related premiums are recognized. Investment Expenses. Investment expenses pertain to the interest incurred by the Parent Company in relation to the Investment accounts payable obtained to fund its investment in loans receivable (see Note 25). Interest Expenses. Interest expenses on accumulated policyholders dividends and premium deposit funds are recognized in profit or loss as it accrues and are calculated using the effective interest method. Accrued interest is credited to the liability account every policy anniversary date. Foreign Currency Transactions Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded using the exchange rate at the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated using the closing exchange rates prevailing at reporting date; income and expenses are translated using the average rate for the year. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign exchange transactions are credited to or charged against profit or loss. For income tax reporting purposes, foreign exchange gains or losses are treated as taxable income or deductible expenses, in the period such are realized. Leases The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. A reassessment is made after inception of the lease only if one of the following applies: a. there is a change in contractual terms, other than a renewal or extension of the arrangement; or b. a renewal option is exercised or extension granted, unless that term of the renewal or extension was initially included in the lease term; or c. there is a change in the determination of whether fulfillment is dependent on a specified asset; or d. there is a substantial change to the asset. Where a reassessment is made, lease accounting shall commence or cease from the date when the change in circumstances gives rise to the reassessment for scenarios a, c or d above, and at the date of renewal or extension period for scenario b. Parent Company as Lessee Leases where the lessor does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the related assets are classified as operating leases. Fixed lease payments are recognized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. - 20 -
Parent Company as Lessor Leases where the Parent Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the assets are classified as operating leases. Lease payments received are recognized as income in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating operating leases are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized over the lease term on the same basis as the rental income. Income Tax Current Income Tax Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxing authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted as at reporting date. Deferred Income Tax Deferred tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carryforward of unused tax credits from the excess of minimum corporate income tax (MCIT) over the regular corporate income tax (RCIT), and unused net operating loss carryover (NOLCO), to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and carryforward of unused tax credits from MCIT and unused NOLCO can be utilized. Deferred tax, however, is not recognized on temporary differences that arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction, affects neither the accounting income nor taxable income or loss. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable income will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are applicable to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted at the reporting date. Current tax and deferred tax relating to items recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive income is also recognized in equity or comprehensive income and not in profit or loss. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred taxes related to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. Movements in the deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from changes in tax rates are charged or credited to income for the period. - 21 -
Value-added Tax (VAT) Revenue, expenses and assets are recognized, net of the amount of sales tax, except: where the tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the tax authority, in which case the tax is recognized as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense items as applicable; and receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of tax included. The net amount of VAT recoverable from or payable to the tax authority is included under Other liabilities in the separate statements of financial position. Contingencies Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the Parent Company s separate financial statements. They are disclosed unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying benefit is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized in the Parent Company s separate financial statements but disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits is probable. Events After the Reporting Date Post year-end events that provide additional information about the Parent Company s financial position at the reporting date (adjusting events) are reflected in the separate financial statements when material. Post year-end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the separate financial statements when material. 4. Critical Accounting Judgments and Estimates The Parent Company makes judgment and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, if any, within the next accounting period. These judgments and estimates are continually evaluated and are adjusted based on historical experience and other relevant factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Judgments In the process of applying Parent Company s accounting policy, management has made the following judgments, apart from those involving estimation, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the Parent Company s financial statements: a) Product Classification The Parent Company has determined that the unit-linked insurance policies it issues that link the payments on the contract to units of internal investment funds has significant insurance risk and therefore meets the definition of an insurance contract and should be accounted for as such. - 22 -
b) Impairment of Financial Assets Investments at Fair Value The Parent Company considers that investments are impaired when there has been a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below their cost. The determination of what is significant or prolonged decline requires judgment. The Parent Company treats significant generally as twenty percent (20%) or more and prolonged as greater than twelve (12) months for quoted equity securities. In addition, the Parent Company evaluates other factors, including normal volatility in share price for quoted securities and the future cash flows and the discount factors for unquoted securities. In making this judgment, the Parent Company evaluates among other factors, the normal volatility in share/market price. In addition, impairment may be appropriate when there is evidence of deterioration in the financial health of the investee, industry and sector performance, changes in technology, and operational and financing cash flows. Receivables The Parent Company reviews its receivables to assess impairment at least on an annual basis, or as the need arises due to significant movements on certain accounts. Receivables from policyholders and reinsurance that are individually significant are assessed to determine whether objective evidence of impairment exists on an individual basis, while those that are not individually significant are assessed for objective evidence of impairment either on an individual or on collective basis. In determining whether an impairment loss should be recorded in profit or loss, the Parent Company makes judgment as to whether there are any observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a portfolio of receivables before the decrease can be identified with an individual receivable in that portfolio. Estimates and Assumptions The key estimates and assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. (a) Insurance Contract Liabilities The estimation of the ultimate liability arising from claims made under life insurance contract is the Parent Company s most critical accounting estimate. There are several sources of uncertainty that need to be considered in the estimation of the liability that the Parent Company will ultimately pay to settle its benefits and claims. The liability of the life insurance contracts are based on assumptions established at the inception of the contract. At each reporting date, these estimates are reassessed for adequacy and changes will be reflected in adjustments to the liability. The main assumptions used relate to mortality, morbidity, investments and discount rates. In determining the liabilities for life insurance contracts, estimates are made as to the expected number of deaths, illness or injury for each of the years in which the Parent Company is exposed to such risks. These estimates are based on standard mortality and morbidity tables as required by the Code. The estimated number of deaths, illness or injury determines the value of possible future benefits to be paid out, which will be factored to insure sufficient amount of reserves, which in return is monitored against current and future premiums. - 23 -
Estimates are also made as to future investment income arising from the assets backing life insurance contracts. These estimates are based on current market returns, as well as expectations about future economic and financial developments. In accordance with the provision of the Code, estimates for future deaths, illness or injury and investment returns are determined at the inception of the contract and are used to calculate the liability over the term of the contract. The interest rate used to discount future liabilities does not exceed the interest rate prescribed by the Insurance Commission. Likewise, no lapse and surrender assumptions are factored in the computation of the liabilities. Legal policy reserves are calculated in accordance with the requirements of the Code. The liability adequacy test was performed using current best estimates on interest, mortality, lapsation and expenses. The net present value of future cash flows as at December 31, 2014 and 2013 computed under the requirements of PFRS 4, amounted to cash outflows of P8.98 billion and P7.99 billion, respectively. Accordingly, the recorded statutory reserves as at December 31, 2014 and 2013 of P9.33 billion and P8.12 billion, respectively, is adequate using best estimate assumptions (see Note 21). (b) Liabilities arising from Claims made under Insurance Contracts There are several sources of uncertainty that need to be considered in the estimation of the liability that the Parent Company will ultimately pay for such claims. Although the ultimate liability arising from life insurance contracts is largely determined by the face amount of each individual policy, the Parent Company also issues accident and health policies and riders where the claim amounts may vary. Claims estimation by the Parent Company considers many factors such as industry average mortality and morbidity experience, with adjustments to reflect Parent Company s historical experience. These liabilities form part of the Parent Company s Incurred but not Reported (IBNR) claims which amounted to P547.95 million and P561.27 million as at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, included in policy and contract claims under Insurance contract liabilities. (c) Impairment of Financial Assets The Parent Company reviews its loans and receivables at each reporting date to assess whether an allowance for impairment should be recorded in profit or loss. In particular, judgment by management is required in the estimation of the amount and timing of future cash flows when determining the level of allowance required. Such estimates are based on assumptions about a number of factors and actual results may differ, resulting in future changes to the allowance. The level of this allowance is evaluated by management on the basis of factor that affects the collectability of the accounts. These factors include, but are not limited to age of balances, financial status of counterparties, payment behavior and known market factors. The Parent Company reviews the age and status of receivables, and identifies accounts that are to be provided with allowance on a regular basis. - 24 -
In addition to specific allowance against individually significant loans and receivables, the Parent Company also makes a collective impairment allowance against exposures which, although not specifically identified as requiring a specific allowance, have a greater risk of default than when originally granted. This collective allowance is based on any deterioration in the internal rating of the loan or investment since it was granted or acquired. These internal ratings take into consideration factors such as concentration risks, identified structural weaknesses and deterioration in cash flows. The amount and timing of recorded expenses for any period would differ if the Parent Company made different judgments or utilized different estimates. An increase in allowance for impairment losses would increase recorded expenses and decrease net income. Provision for impairment loss amounted to P55.12 million and P46.23 million in 2014 and 2013, respectively (see Note 31). Insurance receivables and loans and receivables, net of allowance for impairment losses, amounted to P8.10 billion and P6.84 billion as at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively (see Notes 9 and 12). (d) NRV of Real Estate Inventories The Parent Company reviews real estate inventories for probable impairment in value. Management s judgment in determining if the real estate inventories are impaired is based on the assessment of the asset s estimated net selling price and management s plan in discontinuing the real estate projects. Estimated selling price is derived for publicly available market data and historical experience, while estimated cost of disposal are basically commission expense based on historical experience. Management would also obtain the services of an independent appraiser to determine fair value of undeveloped land based on the latest selling prices of the properties of the same characteristics of the undeveloped land. As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the carrying value of real estate inventories amounted to P31.82 million and P34.56 million, respectively (see Note 16). (e) Impairment of Non-financial Assets The Parent Company assesses impairment on assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The factors that the Parent Company considers important which could trigger an impairment review include the following: significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for overall business; and significant negative industry or economic trends. The Parent Company recognizes an impairment loss whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is computed using the value in use approach. Recoverable amounts are estimated for individual assets or, if it is not possible, for cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. - 25 -
The Parent Company recognizes an impairment loss on real estate inventories whenever NRV is lower than cost. NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated necessary costs to sell. As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, real estate inventories, investment properties, property and equipment, and intangible assets aggregated to P762.57 million and P679.73 million, respectively (see Notes 16, 17, 18 and 19). (f) Realization of Deferred Tax Assets Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which these can be utilized. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized. These assets are periodically reviewed for realization. Periodic reviews cover the nature and amount of deferred income and expense items, expected timing when assets will be used or liabilities will be required to be reported, reliability of historical profitability of businesses expected to provide future earnings and tax planning strategies which can be utilized to increase the likelihood that tax assets will be realized. As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the recognized deferred tax assets amounted to P101.27 million and P52.71 million, respectively (see Note 33). As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the unrecognized deferred tax assets amounted to nil and P99.08 million, respectively (see Note 33). (g) Pension and Other Employee Benefits The determination of pension obligation and other employee benefit is dependent on the selection of certain assumptions used in calculating such amounts. Those assumptions include, among others, discount rates, mortality rates and salary increase rates. Due to the long term nature of these plans, such estimates are subject to significant uncertainty. The assumed discount rates were determined using the market yields of Philippine government bonds with terms consistent with the expected employee benefit payout as at the separate statements of financial position date. As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Parent Company s net pension liability amounted to P199.79 million and P59.00 million, respectively (see Note 32). (h) Contingencies The Parent Company is currently involved in various legal proceedings. The estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of these claims has been developed in consultation with the legal counsels and based upon an analysis of potential results. The Parent Company currently does not believe these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Parent Company s separate statements of financial position. It is possible, however, that the results of operations could be materially affected by changes in the estimates. - 26 -
5. Insurance and Financial Risks Management The primary objective of the Parent Company s risk and financial management framework is to protect the Parent Company from events that hinder the sustainable achievement of the Parent Company s performance objectives including failing to exploit opportunities. The Parent Company recognizes the critical importance of having efficient and effective risk management systems in place. The Parent Company has established a risk management function with clear terms of reference for the BOD, its committees and the associated executive management committees. Further, a clear organizational structure with documented delegated authorities and responsibilities from the BOD to executive management committees and senior managers has been developed. Lastly, a policy framework which sets out the risk appetite of the Parent Company, risk management, control and business conduct standards for the Parent Company s operations has been put in place. Each policy has a member of senior management who is charged with overseeing compliance with the policy throughout the Parent Company. The BOD has approved the Parent Company risk management policies and meets monthly to approve on any commercial, regulatory and own organization requirements in such policies. The policies define the Parent Company s identification of risk and its interpretation, limit structure to ensure the appropriate quality and diversification of assets, alignment of underwriting and reinsurance strategy to the corporate goals and specify reporting requirement. Insurance Risk The risk under an insurance contract that an insured event will occur including the uncertainty of the amount and timing of any resulting claim. The principal risk the Parent Company faces under such contracts is that the actual claims and benefits payments exceed the carrying amount of insurance liabilities. This is influenced by the frequency of claims, severity of claims and actual benefits paid are greater than originally estimated. Terms and Conditions The Parent Company principally writes life insurance where the life of policyholder is insured against death, illness, injury or permanent disability, usually for pre-determined amount. Life insurance contracts offered by the Parent Company mainly include whole life insurance, term insurance, endowments and unit-linked products. Whole life insurance and term insurance are conventional products where lump sum benefits are payable on death. Endowment products are investments/savings products where lump sum benefits are payable after a fixed period or on death before the period is completed. Unit-linked products differ from conventional policies as in unit-linked products, a guaranteed percentage of each premium is allocated to units in a pooled investment fund and the policyholder benefits directly from the total investment growth and income of the fund. The risks associated with the life and accident and health products are underwriting risk and investment risk. - 27 -
The main risks the Parent Company is exposed to include: Mortality Risk - risk of loss arising from policyholder death experience being different than expected. Morbidity Risk - risk of loss arising from policyholder health experience being different than expected. Expense Risk - risk of loss arising from expense experience being different than expected. Policyholder Decision Risk - risk of loss arising from policyholder experience (lapses and surrenders) being different than expected. These risks do not vary significantly in relation to the location of the risk insured by the Parent Company, type of risk insured and by industry. Undue concentration by amounts could have an impact on the severity of benefit payments on a portfolio basis. The Parent Company s underwriting strategy is designated to ensure that risks are well diversified in terms of type of risk and level of insured benefits. This is largely achieved through diversification across industry sectors and geography, the use of medical screening in order to ensure that pricing takes account of current health conditions and family medical history, regular review of actual claims experience and product pricing, as well as detailed claims handling procedures. Underwriting strategy is in place to enforce appropriate risk selection criteria.

The Parent Company adopts standard industry data in assessing future benefit payments and premium receipts as approved by IC. Adjustments are made, if necessary, according to the experience of the Parent Company. - 30 -
For individual life insurance, no adjustment is made by the Parent Company to the standard mortality table. For group life, accident and health insurance, the mortality table is adjusted to reflect the Parent Company s actual and projected experiences which are given weights or credibility depending on the amount and length of exposure under consideration. The Parent Company currently monitors its actual experience on individual business on a per policy basis and on an aggregate basis, and reporting the same to management. The liability for these contracts comprises the IBNR provision, a provision for reported claims not yet paid and a provision for unexpired risk at reporting dates. The IBNR provision is based on historical experience and is subject to a degree of uncertainty. Key Assumptions Material judgment is required in determining the liabilities and in the choice of assumptions relating to insurance contracts. Assumptions are based on past experience, current internal data and conditions and external market indices and benchmarks, which reflect current observable market prices and other published information. Such assumptions are determined as appropriate at inception of the contract and no credit is taken for possible beneficial effects of voluntary withdrawals. Assumptions are further evaluated on a continuous basis in order to ensure realistic and reasonable valuations. Assumptions are subject to the provisions of the Code and guidelines set by IC. For insurance contracts, the Parent Company determines the assumptions in relation to future deaths, illness or injury and investment returns at inception of the contract. Subsequently, new estimates are developed at each reporting date and liabilities are tested to determine whether such liabilities are adequate in the light of the latest current estimates. The initial assumptions are not altered if the liabilities are considered adequate. If the liabilities are not adequate, assumptions are altered ( unlocked ) to reflect the latest current estimates. As a result, the effect of changes in the underlying variables on insurance liabilities and related assets is not symmetrical. Improvements in estimates have no impact on the value of the liabilities and related assets, while significant deteriorations in estimates have an impact. The key assumptions to which the estimation and adequacy testing of liabilities are particularly sensitive are as follow: Mortality and Morbidity Rates Assumptions are based on standard industry and national mortality and morbidity tables, according to the type of contract written and which may be adjusted where appropriate to reflect the Parent Company s own experiences. Assumptions are differentiated by age, underwriting class and contract type. An increase in mortality and morbidity rates would lead to a larger number of claims and claims occurring sooner than anticipated, increasing the expenditure and generally reducing profits for the shareholders. - 31 -
Discount Rate Life insurance liabilities are determined as the sum of the discounted value of the expected benefits, less the discounted value of the expected theoretical premiums that would be required to meet these future cash outflows. The weighted average rate of return is derived based on model portfolio that is assumed to back up liabilities, consistent with the long-term assets allocation strategy. These estimates are based on current market returns as well as expectations about future economic and financial developments. Interest rates used for estimating liabilities is determined by the Insurance Commissioner. An increase in investment return would lead to an increase in profits for the shareholders. A decrease in the discount rate will increase the value of the liability. As required by the Code, lapse, surrender and expense assumptions are not factored in the computation of the insurance contract liabilities. Sensitivities As part of the Parent Company s investment strategy, in order to reduce both insurance and financial risk, the Parent Company matches its investments to the liabilities arising from insurance, by reference to the type of benefits payable to the policyholders. The analysis below is performed for reasonably possible movements in key variables with all other variables held constant, showing the impact on liabilities, income and equity. The correlation of variables will have a significant effect in determining the ultimate claims liabilities, but to demonstrate the impact due to changes in assumptions, assumption changes had to be done on an individual basis. It should be noted that movements in these variables are nonlinear. 2014 Mortality/morbidity Discount rate 2013 Mortality/morbidity Discount rate Change in Assumption Increase (Decrease) on Net Liabilities Increase (Decrease) on Profit before Tax Increase (Decrease) on Equity 110% of original mortality table P65,402,859 (P65,402,859) (P65,402,859) 90% of original mortality table (65,539,363) 65,539,363 65,539,363 Original valuation interest rate +1% (516,057,785) (516,057,785) (516,057,785) Original valuation interest rate -1% P670,269,228 P670,269,228 P670,269,228 Change in Assumption Increase (Decrease) on Net Liabilities Increase (Decrease) on Profit before Tax Increase (Decrease) on Equity 110% of original mortality table P59,466,564 (P59,466,564) (P59,466,564) 90% of original mortality table (61,664,190) 61,664,190 61,664,190 Original valuation interest rate +1% (464,151,768) 464,151,768 464,151,768 Original valuation interest rate -1% 599,769,069 (599,769,069) (599,769,069) The methods used for deriving sensitivity information and significant assumptions did not change from the previous period. - 32 -
Investment Risk The investment risk represents the exposure to loss resulting from cash flows from invested assets, primarily long-term fixed rate investments, being less than the cash flows required to meet the obligations of the expected policy and contract liabilities and the necessary return on investments. Additionally, there exists a future investment risk associated with certain policies currently in force which will have premium receipts in the future. That is, the investment of those future premiums receipts may be at a yield below that required to meet future policy liabilities. To maintain an adequate yield to match the interest necessary to support future policy liabilities, management reinvest the proceeds of the maturing securities and future premium receipts to financial instruments with satisfactory investment quality. The Parent Company s strategy is to invest primarily in high quality securities while maintaining diversification to avoid significant exposure to issuer, industry and/or country concentrations taking into consideration limitations set by IC. Another strategy is to produce cash flows required to meet maturing insurance liabilities. The Parent Company invests in equities for various reasons, including diversifying its overall exposure to equity price risk. AFS financial assets are subject to declines in fair value. Generally, insurance regulations restrict the type of assets in which an insurance company may invest. The Parent Company uses asset-liability matching (ALM) as a management tool to determine the composition of the invested assets and appropriate investment and marketing strategies. As part of these strategies, the Parent Company may determine that it is economically advantageous to be temporarily in an unmatched position due to anticipated interest rate or other economic changes. Financial Risk The Parent Company is exposed to financial risk through its financial assets, financial liabilities and insurance liabilities. In particular, the key financial risk that the Parent Company is exposed to is that the proceeds from its financial assets are not sufficient to fund the obligations arising from its insurance contracts. The most important components of this financial risk are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. There has been no change to the Parent Company s exposure to financial risks (i.e. credit risk, liquidity risk and market risks) or the manner in which it manages and measures the risks since prior financial year. Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The following policies and procedures are in place to mitigate the Parent Company s exposure to credit risk: A credit risk policy setting out the assessment and determination of what constitutes credit risk for the Parent Company. Compliance with the policy is monitored and exposures and breaches are reported to the Parent Company s risk committee. The policy is regularly reviewed for pertinence and for changes in the risk; Net exposure limits are set for each counterparty or group of counterparties, geographical and industry segments (i.e., limits are set for investments and cash deposits, foreign exchange trade exposures and minimum credit ratings for investments that may held); - 33 -
Reinsurance is placed with highly rated counterparties and concentration of risk is avoided by following policy guidelines in respect of counterparties limits that are set each year and are subject to regular reviews. At each reporting date, management performs an assessment of creditworthiness of reinsurers and updates the reinsurance purchase strategy, ascertaining suitable allowance for impairment; The Parent Company sets the maximum amounts and limits that may be advanced to corporate counterparties by reference to their long term credit ratings; and The credit risk in respect of customer balances, incurred on nonpayment of premiums or contributions will only persist during the grace period specified in the policy document or trust deed until expiry, when the policy is either paid up or terminated. Commissions paid to intermediaries are offset against any amounts due to reduce the risk of noncollection. Except for mortgage loans, collateral loans, installment contract receivable and policy loans, the maximum exposure to credit risk of all financial assets is equal to their carrying amounts. Policy loans are secured by the cash surrender values on the related policies. The Parent Company grants policy loans up to the extent of the cash surrender values accumulated on the latest policy anniversary dates. The Parent Company is not exposed to credit risk with respect to policy loans. The tables below show the financial effect of the collateral and credit enhancement to the Parent Company s maximum credit risk as at December 31, 2014 and 2013: Gross Maximum 2014 Fair Value of Collateral or Credit Enhancement Net Exposure Financial Effect of Collateral or Credit Enhancement Mortgage loans P2,454,634,764 P2,056,605,578 P398,029,186 P2,056,605,578 Installment contract receivables 370,098,469 372,608,841-370,098,469 Collateral loans 158,709,874 161,455,909 161,455,909 161,455,909 P2,983,443,107 P2,590,670,328 P559,485,095 P2,588,159,956 Gross Maximum 2013 Fair Value of Collateral or Credit Enhancement Net Exposure Financial Effect of Collateral or Credit Enhancement Mortgage loans P1,905,657,938 P2,407,134,126 P - P1,905,657,938 Installment contract receivables 369,758,297 372,266,362-369,758,297 Collateral loans 66,766,812 1,155,215 65,611,597 1,155,215 P2,342,183,047 P2,780,555,703 P65,611,597 P2,276,571,450 The Parent Company s concentration of credit risk arises from loans and receivables since the said financial instruments amounted to P8.08 billion (2013: P7.08 billion) and 44% (2013: 39%) of its total financial assets as at December 31, 2014. - 34 -

The Parent Company uses an internal credit rating concept based on the borrower s and counterparties overall credit worthiness, as follows: Investment Grade - Rating given to borrowers and counterparties who have very strong capacity to meet their obligations. Non-investment Grade - satisfactory - Rating given to borrowers and counterparties whose outstanding obligation is within the acceptable age Non-investment Grade - unsatisfactory of group. - Rating given to borrowers and counterparties whose outstanding obligation is nearing to be past due or impaired. The tables below show the aging analysis of the financial assets. <30 Days 31 to 60 Days 2014 61 to 90 Days Past Due but not Impaired More than 90 Days Past Due and Impaired Insurance receivables Premiums due and uncollected P174,552,713 P64,677,907 P88,678,213 P58,257,209 P9,450,822 P395,616,864 Due from agents 18,272,664 5,993,190 3,589,242 5,132,414 17,182,694 50,170,204 Loans and receivables Notes receivable 588,755,405 14,984,832 12,828,719 2,355,272,643 182,892,887 3,154,734,485 Mortgage loans 2,010,743,373 36,115,900 4,348,412 388,069,294 15,357,785 2,454,634,764 Installment contracts receivable 18,982,733 502,257 344,109 350,269,370-370,098,469 Healthcare management organization (HMO) billback 96,936,934 40,482,708 38,249,877 204,658,794 116,814,718 497,143,031 Collateral loans 102,361,005-296,568 50,148,914 5,903,387 158,709,874 Advances to officers and employees 962,583 1,687,134 49,748 2,601,789-5,301,255 Investment accounts receivable 380,122,851-6,074,915 63,597,144 13,107,049 462,901,958 Others 76,658,788 12,660,469 8,661,896 2,738,569-100,719,722 Total P3,468,349,049 P177,104,397 P163,121,699 P3,480,746,140 P360,709,341 P7,650,030,626 Total <30 Days 31 to 60 Days 2013 61 to 90 Days Past Due but not Impaired More than 90 Days Past Due and Impaired Insurance receivables Premiums due and uncollected P96,494,278 P37,511,528 P19,167,811 P46,595,173 P26,633,516 P199,768,790 Due from agents 1,481,370-2,222,053 27,158,444-30,861,867 Loans and receivables Notes receivable 2,489,899,529 49,096,149 27,074,048 337,559,599 253,072,388 2,903,629,325 Mortgage loans 1,351,513,652 125,179,534 6,172,721 422,792,031 15,357,785 1,905,657,938 Installment contracts receivable 31,435,782 489,324 2,178,294 335,654,897-369,758,297 Healthcare management organization (HMO) billback 82,287,940 92,911,467 73,625,949 165,387,417 96,261,326 414,212,773 Collateral loans 14,001,719-381,303 52,383,790 48,665,887 66,766,812 Advances to officers and employees 28,323,675 468,237 388,204 3,916,290 2,349,212 33,096,406 Investment accounts receivable 424,986,220 82,097 4,394,029 87,298,036 15,582,780 516,760,382 Others 57,627,193 127,463 183,894 17,100,888 15,037,407 75,039,438 Total P4,578,051,358 P305,865,799 P135,788,306 P1,495,846,565 P472,960,301 P6,515,552,028 Total An allowance for impairment is set up in the Parent Company s separate statements of financial position for assets classified as past-due and impaired. Financial assets are considered as past due and impaired when the contractual payments are in arrears by 90 days and the amount is not adequately secured. When contractual payments are in arrears0020more than 90 days but adequately secured, financial assets are classified as past-due but not impaired with no allowance for impairment is recorded. - 36 -
The amount and type of collateral required depends on an assessment of the credit risk of the counterparty. Guidelines are implemented regarding the acceptability of types of collateral and the valuation parameters. Collateral is mainly obtained for securities lending and for cash purposes. Credit risk is also mitigated by entering into collateral agreements. Management monitors the market value of the collateral, requests additional collateral when needed and performs an impairment valuation when applicable. The related fair value of the collateral for the above past due and impaired assets amounted to P654.12 million and P466.50 million as at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Parent Company will encounter difficulty in meeting its obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The following policies and procedures are in place to mitigate the Parent Company s exposure to liquidity risk: A liquidity risk policy setting out the assessment and determination of what constitutes liquidity risk for the Parent Company. Compliance with the policy is monitored and exposures and breaches are reported to the Parent Company s risk committee. The policy is regularly reviewed for pertinence and for changes in the risk environment; Set guidelines on asset allocations, portfolio limit structures and maturity profiles of assets, in order to ensure sufficient funding available to meet insurance and investment contracts obligations; and Setting up contingency funding plans which specify minimum proportions of funds to meet emergency calls as well as specifying events that would trigger such plans. The tables below summarizes the maturity profile of the Parent Company s financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payment except for the legal policy reserves of the life insurance contracts which is included as part of Insurance contract liabilities account. 2014 Up to a Year 1-5 Years Over 5 Years No Term/ 1-90 days Total Insurance contract liabilities P1,639,011,549 P3,530,980,739 P5,197,810,501 P - P10,367,802,789 Premium deposit funds* 692,652,228 - - - 692,652,228 Insurance payables 179,479,629 - - - 179,479,629 Accounts payable and accrued expenses 49,284,192 - - - 49,284,192 *Excluding amounts received that will be applied to premiums due.

It is unusual for a company primarily engaged in insurance business to predict its funding requirements with absolute certainty as theory of probability is applied on insurance contracts to determine the likely provision and the time period when such liabilities will require settlement. Thus, the amounts and maturities in respect of insurance liabilities are based on management s best estimate using statistical techniques and data on past experience. Market Risk Market risk is the risk of change in fair value of financial instruments from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates (currency risk), market interest risk rates (fair value interest rate risk) and market prices (price risk), whether such change in price is caused by factors specific to the individual instrument or its issuer or factors affecting all instruments traded in the market. The following policies and procedures are in place to mitigate the Parent Company s exposures to market risk: The Parent Company s market risk policy sets out the assessment and determination of what constitutes market risk for the Parent Company. Compliance with the policy is monitored and exposures and breaches are reported to the Parent Company s risk committee. The policy is reviewed regularly for pertinence and for changes in the risk environment. Set asset allocation and portfolio limit structure to ensure that assets back specific policyholder s liabilities and that assets are held to deliver income and market value appreciation for policyholders in line with their expectations. Stipulated diversification benchmarks by type of instrument of the Parent Company. Currency Risk Currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Parent Company s principal transactions are carried out in Philippine peso and its foreign exchange risk arises primarily with respect to the transactions denominated in U.S. dollar, where some of its products are denominated. The Parent Company s financial assets are primarily denominated in the same currency as its insurance contracts, which mitigate the foreign exchange rate risk. Thus, the main foreign exchange risk arises from recognized assets and liabilities denominated in currency other than in which the insurance contracts are expected to be settled. The following tables show the details of the Parent Company s foreign-currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and their Philippine peso equivalents: 2014 US$ PHP Assets Cash and cash equivalents 3,549,345 158,361,126 Financial assets at FVPL 3,726,954 166,285,507 AFS financial assets 5,224,501 233,101,561 Accrued income 346,440 15,457,120 12,847,240 573,205,313 Liabilities Insurance contract liabilities 6,848,656 305,566,485 Premium deposit funds 287,434 12,824,443 7,136,090 318,390,928 P5,711,150 P254,814,386-38 -

The analysis below is performed for reasonably possible movements in key variables with all other variables held constant, showing the impact on income before income tax (due to changes in fair value of currency sensitive monetary assets and liabilities). There is no other impact on the Parent Company s equity other than those already affecting profit or loss. The correlation of variables will have a significant effect in determining the ultimate impact on market risk, but to demonstrate the impact, key changes had to be changed on an individual basis. It should be noted that movements in these variables are nonlinear.

Fair Value Interest Rate Risk Fair value interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rate. The Parent Company s fixed rate investments classified as AFS financial assets are particularly exposed to such risk. The Parent Company s investment policy requires it to buy and hold AFS financial assets, unless the need to sell arises, and to reduce the duration gap between financial assets and financial liabilities to minimize interest rate risk. - 39 -

Equity Price Risk The Parent Company s equity price risk exposure at year-end relates to financial assets and liabilities whose values will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, principally, equity securities classified as financial assets at FVPL and AFS financial assets. The Parent Company s price risk relates to financial assets whose values will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, principally investment securities not held for the account of unit-linked business. The correlation of variables will have a significant effect in determining the ultimate impact on price risk, but to demonstrate the impact due to changes in variables, variables had to be changed on an individual basis.

Capital Management Regulatory Framework Regulators are interested in protecting the rights of the policyholders and maintain close monitoring to ensure that the Parent Company is satisfactory managing affairs for their benefit. At the same time, the regulators are also interested in ensuring that the Parent Company maintains appropriate solvency position to meet liabilities arising from claims and that the risk levels are at acceptable levels.

The final amount of the MOS can be determined only after the accounts of the Parent Company have been examined by the IC, specifically as to admitted and non-admitted assets as defined in the Code. If the insurance company failed to meet the minimum required MOS, the IC is authorized to suspend or revoke all certificates of authority granted to such company, officers, agents and no new business shall be transacted until its authority is restored by the IC. As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the estimated amounts of non-admitted assets, as defined under the Code, which are included in the accompanying Parent Company s separate statements of financial position, are as follow: 2014 2013 Property and equipment - net P79,778,611 P82,178,168 Loans and receivables and other assets 505,788,804 226,029,469 P585,567,415 P308,207,637 The Parent Company complied with the externally imposed MOS requirements during the reported financial periods.

Every life insurance company is required annually to maintain a minimum RBC ratio of one hundred (100%) and not fail the trend test. Failure to meet the minimum RBC ratio shall subject the insurance company to corresponding regulatory intervention which has been defined at various levels. The RBC ratio shall be calculated as net worth divided by the RBC requirement. Net worth shall include an insurance company s paid-up capital, contributed and contingency surplus and unassigned surplus. Revaluation and fluctuation reserve accounts shall form part of net worth only to the extent authorized by the IC. RBC requirement shall be computed based on the formula provided in the Circular and shall include asset default risk, insurance pricing risk, interest rate risk and general business risk. - 42 -

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures The fair value of the following financial assets and financial liabilities approximates their carrying amount at end of each reporting period due to their short term nature: Cash and cash equivalents; Insurance receivables; Accrued income; Reinsurance assets; Insurance contract liabilities except for legal policy reserves; Reserve for policyholders dividends; Premium deposit funds excluding amounts received which will be applied to premiums due; Insurance payables; and Accounts payable and accrued expenses. The recurring fair values of financial assets at FVPL and AFS financial assets are determined by reference to quoted market prices at the close of business on the reporting dates. Fair Value Hierarchy The table below presents financial instruments carried at fair value by valuation method as at December 31, 2014 and 2013. The different levels have been defined as follows: 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 (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices). Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). - 43 -

Available-for-Sale Financial Assets This account consists of: 2014 2013 Equity securities at fair value P7,850,364,782 P7,415,498,384 Equity securities at cost 573,552,333 572,823,208 Debt securities 626,982,228 353,873,246 P9,050,899,343 P8,342,194,838 (a) AFS Equity Securities at Fair Value As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, AFS unlisted equity securities carried at fair values consist mainly of the Parent Company s investment in shares of stock of the following Coconut Industry Investment Fund (CIIF) Oil Mills Companies: Granexport Manufacturing Corporation (Granex) Legaspi Oil Company, Inc. (LegOil) San Pablo Manufacturing Corporation (SPMC) Southern Luzon Coconut Oil Mills Co., Inc. (SolCom) The fair values of the total investments in CIIF were determined by taking into account the redemption price of San Miguel Corporation (SMC) shares, which comprise 96.72% (over total balance) of CIIF s assets, and DCF approach for other operating net assets. The CIIF Oil Mills Companies have investments in fourteen (14) CIIF holding companies which hold shares in SMC. The aggregate market value of the Parent Company s interest in these SMC shares amounted to P6.21 billion as at December 31, 2014 and 2013. In addition, the fair values of the other operating net assets of the CIIF Oil Mills Companies have been determined using DCF approach. Significant assumptions used include a long-term growth rate of nil and a discount rate of 12% in 2014 and 2013. DCF computation is based on latest available figures of CIIF Oil Mills Companies as at December 31, 2014 and 2013. The assets of the CIIF Oil Mills Companies and the SMC shares are presently sequestered and are the subject of an ongoing appeal by the Philippine Coconut Producers Federation with the Supreme Court (SC). The investments of SPMC, Iligan Coconut Industries, Inc. ( Ilicoco ) and other CIIF Oils Mills in the 14 CIIF holding companies and the loans and advances granted by SPMC, Ilicoco and other CIIF Oil Mills to the 14 CIIF holding companies were used to purchase the shares of stock in SMC. As at December 31, 2001, the loans and advances granted to the 14 CIIF holding companies were fully collected. These SMC shares were sequestered by the Presidential Commission of Good Government (PCGG) in May 1986. The 14 CIIF holding companies, United Coconut Planters Bank (UCPB) and SMC executed and subsequently implemented in 1991 a compromise agreement and amicable settlement involving the SMC shares of stock held by the 14 CIIF holding companies. Notwithstanding the implementation of the compromise agreement and amicable settlement, all the subject SMC shares of stock remain sequestered by the PCGG. Certain parties, however, filed before the Sandiganbayan their opposition to the implementation of the said agreement. - 46 -
On November 10, 1993, the Republic of the Philippines, acting through the PCGG, filed before the Sandiganbayan a motion for authority to sell all the 14 CIIF holding companies shares of stock of SMC. The proceeds of the sale would then be utilized to pay for the indebtedness of the CIIF holding companies to UCPB and any remaining balance thereof would be used for urgently needed projects designed for the benefit of the coconut farmers and pursuant to the intent of the CIIF. The motion was opposed by certain parties. On September 27, 1996, the 14 CIIF holding companies and UCPB, as administrator of the CIIF holding companies and as then creditor of the 14 CIIF holding companies (the UCPB loan was fully paid by the 14 CIIF holding companies in November 2002), filed a joint motion before the Sandiganbayan and respectfully moved that they be authorized to sell all the 14 CIIF holding companies SMC class B shares and to buy an equal number of SMC Class A shares. The motion was denied on December 12, 1997. On January 7, 1998, the 14 CIIF holding companies and UCPB filed a motion for reconsideration. On May 7, 1998, in an en banc resolution, the PCGG lifted the sequestration of the SMC shares, subject to the approval of the Sandiganbayan. The lifting of the sequestration on the SMC shares owned by the 14 CIIF holding companies will enable the CIIF companies to re-deploy their resources in response to the demands of an ever-changing business environment and to initiate strategic programs aimed at enhancing the competitiveness of the Philippine coconut industry. On February 9, 1999, the Sandiganbayan considered the motion dated November 10, 1993 withdrawn without prejudice to whatever actions the parties may take for revival or resuscitation thereof under such terms which may be appropriate at that time. On March 12, 1999, certain parties filed a motion for permission to present evidence in relation to their opposition of said November 10, 1993 motion to sell all SMC shares. On November 8, 2000, the President of the Philippines issued Executive Order (EO) No. 313 creating an irrevocable trust fund to be known as the Coconut Trust Fund to be managed by a Trust Fund Committee. EO No. 313 also provided that the subject SMC shares shall form part of the initial capital of the Coconut Trust Fund. For the purpose of implementing the creation of the Coconut Trust Fund, EO No. 313 directed the 14 CIIF holding companies, acting through Administrator of the coconut levy fund, to: (a) convey the subject SMC shares to the Trustee; and, (b) sign, execute and deliver such documents, deed or contracts, under such conditions not inconsistent with EO No. 313 likewise mandates the PCGG and the Office of the Solicitor General to lift the sequestration of the subject SMC shares and take all the necessary steps to implement the purposes and objectives of EO No. 313. As a first step toward the implementation of EO No. 313, the PCGG adopted resolutions on November 28, 2000, lifting the sequestration of the subject SMC shares. On January 10, 2001, a Motion to Withdraw Compliant was filed by the PCGG before the Sandiganbayan requesting for the exclusion of the subject SMC shares from Civil Case No. 0033-F and for the cause of action against defendants, the 14 CIIF holding companies, in connection with the said shares to be considered withdrawn. - 47 -
As a result of the installation of the new dispensation, on January 30, 2001, a Manifestation and Motion to Hold in Abeyance Motion to Withdraw Complaint dated January 10, 2001 was filed before Sandiganbayan requesting to defer action in the aforementioned Motion until February 25, 2001 or later, for the reason that EO No. 313 is still undergoing review by the Office of the President for possible amendment, suspension and revocation. The Sandiganbayan, in a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment on May 7, 2004, decided that SPMC and the other CIIF Block of SMC shares of stock totaling 33,133,266 shares in 1983, together with all dividends declared, paid and issued thereon, as well as any increments thereto arising from, but not limited to, exercise of pre-emptive rights, are declared owned by the government in trust for all the coconut farmer and ordered reconveyed to the government. Certain parties filed a Motion for Reconsideration to such Sandiganbayan decision. The motion for reconsideration was denied by Sandiganbayan on December 28, 2004. On March 29, 2005, the 14 CIIF holding companies, as authorized by the PCGG, exercised their pre-emptive rights first on the SMC Class B shares and thereafter on the SMC Class A shares of SMC s 105 stock offering to the extent of the cash dividends held by the 14 CIIF holding companies. The 14 CIIF holding companies subscribed to 27,952,430 Class B shares and 693,242 Class A shares resulting in total shareholdings of 307,395,776 Class B shares and 446,476,531 Class A shares. As at June 30, 2008, the aforementioned case pending with the First Division of the Sandiganbayan is now awaiting decision. On July 24, 2009, SMC made an offer to exchange (the Exchange Offer) preferred shares for its issued and outstanding Class A and Class B common shares, on a onefor-one basis. The peso-denominated nonvoting preferred shares (the Series 1 Preferred Shares) will have an issue price of P75.00 (the Issue Price). The maximum Series 1 Preferred Shares that could be exchanged in the Exchange Offers is 1,104,000. The Parent Company and the CIIF Oil Mills Companies chose to participate in the Exchange Offer. The Parent Company and the CIIF Oil Mills Companies submitted their applications to exchange in October 2009. The Parent Company and the CIIF Oil Mills Companies received 751,185 and 753,848,312 Series 1 Preferred Shares, respectively, in exchange for an equivalent number of common shares. On December 23, 2009, the Parent Company s BOD approved the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) which allowed the Parent Company to account for its investment in CIIF Oil Mills Companies as investments in associates because despite ownership of less than twenty percent (20%) interest in the CIIF Oil Mills Companies, the Parent Company has significant influence by virtue of joint rights with UCPB as stockholders of the CIIF Oil Mills Companies for their collective benefit. Upon effectivity of the MOA on January 1, 2010, the CIIF Oil Mills Companies became associates of the Parent Company. As allowed under PAS 27, the Parent Company accounted for its investments in CIIF Oil Mills Companies as AFS financial assets which are carried at fair value in its separate financial statements. - 48 -
On January 24, 2012, the SC rendered its decision in favor of the government in two cases involving: (a) the ownership of certain sequestered shares in UCPB and (b) the ownership over the CIIF Oil Mills, the Fourteen CIIF Holding Companies and the shares of stock in SMC held by the 14 CIIF Holding Companies, together with all dividends declared paid and issued thereon as well as any increments thereto arising from, but not limited to, exercise of pre-emptive rights. On February 14, 2012, the Philippine Coconut Producers Federation, Inc., et. al., filed a Motion for Reconsideration on the decision rendered by the SC. The SC subsequently rendered a decision on September 4, 2012 which resolves to deny with finality the aforementioned case for the lack of merit. Further, the court clarifies that the SMC shares, with all the dividends earnings as well as all increments that may arise from, are owned by the government to be used for the benefit of all the coconut farmers and for the development of the coconut industry. On December 28, 2012, the Parent Company filed a Petition for Declaratory Relief to seek for an authoritative declaration of its rights and duties as a stockholder of the CIIF Oil Mills, and 14 CIIF holding companies. Against this petition the Philippine Government through the PCGG filed with the Supreme Court a petition for, among others, the issuance of the Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) enjoining the trial court Judge from proceeding with the hearing of the petition for declaratory relief. On February 26, 2014, the Supreme Court issued the TRO. On December 10, 2014, the Supreme Court issued a resolution directing that an entry of judgment be made for its January 24, 2012 Decision, which ordered the reconveyance of the CIIF Block of SMC shares to the Government, to be used exclusively for the benefit of coconut farmers and the development of the local coconut industry. As at December 31, 2014, the carrying amount of the Parent Company s investments in UCPB shares and CIIF Oil Mills shares amounted to P552.34 million and P6.41 billion, respectively. The Parent Company recognized increase in the fair value of investments in CIIF amounting to P30.78 million in 2014 from the recognized impairment losses in 2013 amounting to P50.65 million. (b) AFS Equity Securities at Cost In 2011, the Parent Company foreclosed its receivables from Archipelago Finance and Leasing Corporation (Archipelago), an entity under common control, pertaining to the sales of UCPB shares in 2000 up to 2002 amounting to P351.98 million and secured by a pledge on 29,290,224 shares sold. Consequently, the Company s investments in UCPB shares increased from 100,000,000 shares as at December 31, 2010 valued at P100.00 million to 129,290,224 shares as at December 31, 2011 valued at P451.98 million. These stocks are nonparticipating, nonvoting preferred shares convertible to common shares of UCPB with P1 par value, an affiliated local commercial bank at the option of the holder. These shares are entitled to cumulative dividends of 14% per annum. - 49 -
A substantial portion of the outstanding shares of stock of UCPB remains sequestered as a result of the sequestration orders previously issued by the PCGG on June 26, 1986. In 2012, the Parent Company redeemed the UCPB shares amounting to P100.00 million from UCPB General Insurance Company, Inc. (UCPB GEN), a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Parent Company have investments in UCPB shares amounting to a total of P552.34 million as at December 31, 2014 and 2013. The issue of ownership of the sequestered shares has been the subject of ongoing court proceeding with SC and Sandiganbayan. However, on December 14, 2001, the SC ruled that the coconut levy funds, from which the funds to buy UCPB shares were occurred, were prima facie public funds. Further, on July 2, 2002, the SC directed the Sandiganbayan First Division to resolve with all deliberate speed and not later than six (6) months such ownership issue. The Sandiganbayan, in its decision dated July 11, 2003, ruled and declared that ownership of 72.20% in UCPB legally belongs to the government. Subsequently, the SC rendered a decision on January 25, 2012 supporting the decision of the Sandiganbayan on July 11, 2003. On February 14, 2012, the Philippine Coconut Producers Federation, Inc., et. al., filed a Motion for Reconsideration on the decision rendered by the SC. The SC subsequently rendered a decision on September 4, 2012 which resolves to deny with finality the said Motion for Reconsideration for lack of merit. The Petition for Declaratory Relief by the Parent Company on December 28, 2012 also mentioned its ownership over these UCPB shares. Update on UCPB Rehabilitation Plan On March 29, 2004, UCPB requested certain concessions for the duration of the rehabilitation period of ten (10) years or until such time that UCPB is able to comply with the regulatory requirements, whichever is earlier. The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), in its reply date January 10, 2005: Approved the 10-year Business/Rehabilitation Plan of UCPB; Granted temporary relief by reducing the risk-weighted capital ratio from 10% to 8% for a period of three (3) years up to 2007 or until such time that UCPB is able to comply with the required 10%, whichever comes earlier; Allowed the staggered booking of P14.00 billion required valuation reserves based on the fixed rate of 5% each year for the first three (3) years, ten percent (10%) each year for the next four (4) years and fifteen percent (15%) each year for the remaining three (3) years; and Required UCPB to seek prior BSP approval for the merger of United Savings Bank and UCPB Rural bank. The merger had been effected on December 29, 2005. - 50 -
On May 15, 2008, the Philippine Depository Insurance Corporation (PDIC) Board, in its Resolution No. 2008-05-073, approved the following: 1. Proposed rehabilitation scheme to address the capital deficiency of the UCPB pending resolution of ownership issues, including the following: a.

Parent Company expects to contribute P112.02 million to its defined benefit retirement plan in 2015. The following were the principal actuarial assumptions at the reporting date: 2014 2013 Discount rate 4.61% 5.91% Future salary growth 5.00% 5.00% Assumptions regarding the mortality and disability rates used were based on the 1980 CSO Mortality Table and 1952 Ben-5 Disability Study, respectively. The weighted-average duration of the defined benefit obligation is 33 years and 32 years as at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Maturity analysis of the benefit payments (in thousands): Carrying Amount Contractual Cash Flows 2014 Within 1 Year Within 1-5 Years More than 5 Years Defined benefit obligation P711,735 P7,703,562 P125,371 P90,792 P7,487,400 Carrying Amount Contractual Cash Flows 2013 Within 1 Year Within 1-5 Years More than 5 Years Defined benefit obligation P512,727 P9,176,197 P112,022 P157,786 P8,906,389 Sensitivity Analysis Reasonably possible changes at the reporting date to one of the relevant actuarial assumptions, holding other assumptions constant, would have affected the defined benefit obligation by the amounts shown below: Discount Rate Salary Increase Rate +100% -100% +100% -100% Defined benefit obligation (P40,794,098) P46,270,377 P39,322,153 (P35,428,698) Although the analysis does not take account the full distribution of cash flows expected under the plan, it does provide an approximation of the sensitivity of the assumption shown. These defined benefit plan exposes the Parent Company to actuarial risks, such as longevity risk, interest rate risk, and market (investment) risk.

Life Insurance Coverage of Coconut Farmers Under a group master policy contract dated March 27, 1978, As Amended, the Parent Company agreed to provide group whole-life insurance coverage to certain coconut farmer members of the Philippine Coconut Producers Federation (Program I). This Group insurance plan shares in the Group s savings in mortality expenses and extra earnings in investments through policyholders dividends and policy benefits. Effective April 1, 1985, the insurance coverage of the coconut farmers was converted from a whole-life insurance plan to a modified extended term insurance. The amount of insurance and other benefits remained substantially the same, except for cash surrender and policy loan privileges. Policyholders dividends, policy benefits and the legal policy reserves maintained under the farmers insurance program are used to sustain, until these can, the modified extended term insurance coverage of the insured coconut farmers. On November 5, 1996, the Philippine Coconut Authority (PCA) and the CIIF Companies signed a memorandum of agreement which will expand the number of farmers covered under the Insurance Program from existing 0.6 million to 1.5 million farmers (Program II). The premium payments for the additional farmers will be taken from an insurance fund to be set up by the CIIF Companies in keeping with their social responsibility to the coconut industry. On August 28, 2002, the PCA and CIIF Companies signed a memorandum of agreement which proposed a further expansion of the insurance program in order to restore the insurance benefit of the remaining insured coconut farmers under Program I and II from P5,000 to P10,000 (Program III). Further, under the same program, the PCA also proposed to extend the same benefit to an additional 2.48 million coconut farmers and coconut farm workers that were not included under Programs I and II. Accordingly, the PCA and CIIF companies have agreed in principle to implement Program III as follows: Phase I Upgrade the insurance coverage of the existing 1.02 million insured farmers from P5,000 to P10,000 per farmer effective June 12, 2002. Phase II Provide an additional 0.85 million coconut farmers and workers with a P10,000 Group yearly Renewable term Coverage. - 77 -
Phase III Provide an additional 0.90 million coconut farmers and workers with a P10,000 Group Yearly renewable term Coverage. Phase IV Provide an additional 0.78 million coconut farmers and workers with a P10,000 Group Yearly Renewable Coverage. 38. Subsequent Events On March 18, 2015, President Benigno S. Aquino III of the Republic of the Philippines issued Executive Order No. 179 (Providing the Administrative Guidelines for the Inventory and Privatization of Coco Levy Assets) and No. 180 (Providing the Administrative Guidelines for the Reconveyance and Utilization of Coco Levy Assets for the Benefit of the Coconut Farmers and the Development of the Coconut Industry, and For Other Purposes), together referred to as the EOs. The EOs mandate the inventory, reconveyance, utilization and privatization of coco levy assets to ensure that the Coco Levy Fund and Coco Levy Assets will only be utilized for the benefit of the coconut farmers and the Philippine coconut industry. The EOs define coco levy funds as all funds created or sourced from the Coconut Levy imposed by the government, including the Coconut Industry Investment Fund (CIIF) and the Coconut Consumers Stabilization Fund (CCSF). Coco levy assets meanwhile refer to the money, assets or properties, whether real or personal, tangible or intangible, wherever situated, arising from or otherwise funded by or acquired through the use or by means of any of the coco levy funds, directly or indirectly, including but not limited to shares, rights, and interests, whether vested, contingent, expectant, choate or inchoate, and any and all fruits, income, interest, or profits derived from these assets including those acquired in exchange or substitution thereof. The said EOs shall take effect on the date of its publication in a newspaper of general circulation. As at April 29, 2015, the EOs have not been published in any newspapers of general circulation. The mandate given to the concerned government agencies will have to be complied with within 60 days from the EO s effectivity date. 39.
