Note 3:
The Weighted Average Cost of Capital is calculated in accordance to Singapore Technologies (ST) Group EVA Policy as follows:
i) Cost of Equity using Capital Asset Pricing Model with market risk premium at 7.0%;
ii) Risk-free rate of 3.94% (2001 @ 4.12%) based on yield-to-maturity of Singapore Government 10 years Bonds;
iii) Ungeared beta at 0.85 based on ST risk categorisation; and
iv) Cost of Debt rate at 4.30% (2001 @ 4.58%) using 5-year Singapore Dollar Swap Offered rate plus 75 basis point.

Note 4:
Unusual Items (UI) refer to divestment of investment properties, subsidiary and associates, long term investments and disposal of major fixed assets.

Note 5:
In 2001, EVA reported of $160.9 million was based on EVA of the Group excluding UI but before Minority Interests. The capital employed was adjusted for the capital gains/losses from Unusual Items. With effect from 2002, the statement is refined to reflect the EVA attributable to shareholders (excluding minority share of EVA). All capital gains/losses from UI also formed part of the capital employed to be accounted. The restated 2001 Group EVA Attributable to Shareholders (exclude UI) of $157.9 million reflects the above changes.
