Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back Malakoff Instills Good Ethics In Young Malaysians 23 June 2013 Malakoff Corporation Berhad (Malakoff) recently organised its annual ‘Program Melentur Buluh’ at Sekolah Kebangsaan (SK) Segari, as part of its social commitment to help nurture sound values amongst the young students through active participation in community activities. Organised for the third consecutive year, the event is a CSR initiative organised by the Company under its flagship CSR platform – the Malakoff Community Partnerships. During the employee-driven effort, Malakoff volunteers rallied all 96 enthusiastic students to participate in a ‘gotong-royong’ campaign to liven up the school’s surroundings. Further to this, Malakoff employees refurbished the library into a more vibrant hub of knowledge to encourage active reading habits amongst students. Speaking about the event, Zainal Abidin Jalil, the Chief Executive Officer of Malakoff said, “In addition to academic excellence, character building and a sense of belonging to the community are important to help shape our young Malaysians who will grow to be the next generation of leaders. The ‘Program Melentur Buluh’ is a platform for us at Malakoff to help inculcate positive values in the early years of these children.” “I am pleased that our employees have demonstrated a strong volunteerism spirit to expand the programme. We will explore how we can replicate its success at all of our ten adopted schools across Malaysia in the years to come,” he added. In addition, Malakoff invited Road Traffic Police to educate the students on road safety. The local Fire and Rescue Department also participated in the programme to provide practical demonstration on the importance of fire safety to students. As one of Malakoff’s ten adopted schools across Malaysia, SK Segari also receives an annual financial grant worth RM20,000 from the Company under the Malakoff Education Fund. This fund enables the Company’s ten adopted schools to be better equipped with learning facilities to ensure academic excellence among students. Hajah Saadiah Mahmud, Headmistress of SK Segari said, “I am heartened by Malakoff’s genuine interest and deep concern for our students’ well-being. The Company has financially supported our school since 2006 and organised various on-the-ground learning opportunities for our students.” Visibly proud of her students’ efforts, she added, “I am delighted with my students’ active and enthusiastic involvement to make their school’s environment better. This is the first time a ‘gotong-royong’ was organised and our students have definitely taken away with them some valuable lessons from the event. We hope to continue such efforts in the future for the benefit of our students.” The first ‘Program Melentur Buluh’ was held in 2011 at SK Andek Mori, Johor. Following its success, Malakoff continued to champion the initiative last year at SK Seri Sinaran Chokoh, Johor.

Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back Malakoff Corporation Berhad Profit Increased by three fold in Q1 FY2015 26 May 2015 Profit before tax grew RM130.9 mil to RM175.5 million Malakoff Corporation Berhad (“Malakoff” or “Group”), the largest Independent Power Producer (“IPP”) in Malaysia and South East Asia in terms of total generation capacity, recorded strong growth for its first quarter ended 31 March 2015 (“Q1 FY2015”). PBT registered almost a 300% increase to RM175.5 million, an increase of RM130.9 million from RM44.6 million. At the same time, group revenue increased by 9% to RM1.35 billion from RM1.24 billion in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. In Q1 FY2015, PATMI jumped to RM103.9 million leading to a similar increase in basic EPS at 2.90 sen from RM2.6 million and 0.07 sen respectively in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Malakoff attributed its revenue growth for the quarter under review to the higher capacity registered by its coal-fired 2,100 megawatt (“MW”) Tanjung Bin Power Plant (“TBPP”) and the consolidation of Port Dickson Power (“PDP”) profit pursuant to the completion of the PDP acquisition in 2014. In April 2014, Malakoff had acquired the remaining 75% equity interest in PDP not held by the Group, a move that is expected to enhance its profitability. PBT growth for the quarter was also supported by other factors such as lower finance costs and higher interest income. Dato’ Sri Syed Faisal Albar, Chief Executive Officer of Malakoff, said “Our Q1 performance is reflective of our growth trajectory based on a solid business model and stable cashflow.” “Moving forward, we remain focused on delivering growth that are earnings accretive to Group performance, adding value to our shareholders,” he added. Malakoff declared a single-tier interim dividend of 3 sen per share for the financial year ending 31 December 2015. The Group’s finance costs will also be lower with the redemption of the Unrated Junior Sukuk Musharakah utilising the RM1.8 billion gross proceeds raised from its initial public offering exercise which concluded with its listing on Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad earlier this month. Barring unexpected developments, Malakoff expects better performance for FY2015 against the previous year on the back of higher contribution from TBPP where all three 700MW turbine units are now available at full capacity. The Group’s gas-fired power plants in Lumut and Prai are also expected to continue performing well. In addition, the full year contribution from PDP will further enhance the Group’s profitability.

Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back Malakoff Grooms Young Leaders 20 October 2013 24 UNITEN Students Selected for Company’s Talent Development Programme Malakoff Corporation Berhad (Malakoff) has awarded 24 promising undergraduates from Universiti Tenaga Nasional (UNITEN) with placements under the Malakoff-UNITEN Talent Acceleration Programme (MUTAP), as part of its commitment to nurture young Malaysians to become future leaders. The talent development effort initiated by Malakoff and UNITEN in collaboration with Leaderonomics offers students a year-long experiential learning programme, enabling them to develop new skills including critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration, communication, creativity and innovation through hands-on experience as well as coaching sessions. Speaking at the event, Bani Zainal, Senior Vice President, Corporate Services Division, Malakoff, said, “At Malakoff, we proactively engage with local universities and contribute to the development of young talents through efforts including MUTAP, in line with Malaysia’s vision to invest in human capital as a key enabler to build a knowledge-intensive and high-income nation.” “Through MUTAP, we hope to nurture our bright graduates for leadership roles with hands-on job experience and ample opportunities to develop their potential. This is part of our commitment to work with local universities to ensure a sustainable pipeline of talent for the industry,” he added. The year-long MUTAP will adopt a 70-20-10 learning approach, which is a proven methodology to increase learning effectiveness and ensure skills retention as compared to formal training. Students will devote 70% of their time on live and action-based learning projects, supported by 20% mentoring as well as coaching sessions, with the remaining 10% on formal courses and reading. The selected 24 high achievers are currently in their third and fourth year from the Faculty of Electricity and Electronics, Electrical Power, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering and Information Technology of UNITEN. Recognising the importance of diversity in any given organisation, Malakoff has also shortlisted four international students from Yemen, Palestine, Sudan, and Jordan to participate in the programme to foster better intercultural communication among the students. Dato' Prof. Ir. Dr. Ibrahim Hussein, Deputy Vice Chancellor (Academic and Research) said, “We take pride in promoting lifelong and continuous learning in our students as we firmly believe that we need to be constantly exposed to new skills and knowledge in order to remain competitive in today’s economic environment.” “I applaud Malakoff’s long-term commitment and collaboration in ensuring that our graduates are well equipped with the necessary skills to excel in their careers through various efforts including MUTAP,” he added.

The Club currently comprises 37 students from various faculties and age group pledging to spearhead youth leadership at the university. Over and above MUTAP, Malakoff initiated the “Share Us Your Love” programme in 2010 as a platform for UNITEN students to conduct a motivation and self-development camp for the children of Rumah Jagaan Siraman Kasih. The following year, the Company partnered with the graduates again for the project and helped mentor over 200 students from Sekolah Agama Rakyat Al-Ansar, specifically on self-development and religious education. Elaborating further on the Malakoff’s plan to roll-out the Talent Acceleration Programme, Bani added, “We are looking to expand the programme to other universities. We recognise that talent development is an ongoing process and requires significant time and resources, which Malakoff is committed to offer.” For more details on these and other initiatives by Malakoff, please visit www.malakoff.com.my

He also pointed out that a manpower optimization plan was also underway and will be implemented in the first quarter of 2017. Referring to the challenging year ahead, Datuk Wira Azhar said, “Staff have to embrace a paradigm shift to make a difference.

Moving forward, to ensure the sustainability of the company that aspires to be a leading power and water desalination company in Malaysia and Southeast Asia, Datuk Wira Azhar encouraged everyone to give added value to their roles at the workplace. While continuing with the on-going cost optimization efforts, Malakoff must also look for new business opportunities to expand its growth and momentum.
