Broadcasting Infrastructure and Broadcasting Licences were classified as one combined
CGU (“Combined CGU”) and were tested for impairment. Following the review of projected
cash flows, the Combined CGU is not expected to generate sufficient cash flows in the
next five years. Consequently, a total impairment loss of RM71,436,108 was provided as
the carrying amount was in excess than its recoverable amount.
