1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) was created under Philippine Legislature
Act No. 4130 on October 30, 1934 and later amended by Republic Act (RA) No. 1169 in 1954
and Batas Pambansa Blg. 42 on September 24, 1979. The PCSO is the principal government
agency for raising and providing funds for health programs, medical assistance and services,
and charities of national character.
In adherence to its main thrust of providing funds for health programs and other charities of
national character, the PCSO is engaged in various social welfare and development programs.
The main programs of the Agency are as follows: endowment fund/quality health care program;
individual medical assistance program; community outreach program; ambulance donation
program; national calamity and disaster program; and hospital renovation and improvement of
health care facilities.
To support and sustain the foregoing mandated tasks, the PCSO holds and conducts charity
sweepstakes, races, and lotteries and engages in health and welfare-related investments,
projects, and activities to provide for permanent and continuing sources of funds for its
programs. It also undertakes other activities to enhance and expand such fund-generating
operations as well as strengthen the Agency’s fund-management capabilities.
The main products of the PCSO are the Sweepstakes and the Lottery games. The
Sweepstakes game has steadily been evolving through the years to be able to conform with the
changing demand of times, to keep the game interesting to all Sweepstakes enthusiasts, to
attract more clients, and to maintain a variety of Sweepstakes products readily available in the
market. Various game types have been introduced and other game innovations are constantly
being conceptualized, particularly the traditional; and scratch and match variety.
A. Lotto Games
The PCSO offers five (5) 6-pick number games namely; Lotto 6/42, Mega Lotto 6/45, Super
Lotto 6/49, Grand Lotto 6/55 and the Ultra Lotto 6/58. All of these number games can be played
using the system play (systems 7 to 12), 5 Roll, and Lucky Pick.
The PCSO Board of Directors approved the implementation of the grant of one per cent (1%)
share on Jackpot Winnings to Lotto Agents who had sold the Jackpot winning Ticket, not to
exceed the amount of One Million Pesos (P1,000,000), to be taken from the Jackpot Prizes of
the winners as per Board Resolution No. 223, Series of 2017 dated September 28, 2017.

The PCSO Lotto Express (Keno) started its selling and draw operations on March 6, 2006 with
only six (6) outlets in the National Capital Region (NCR).
13
The Keno game can be played from choosing your numbers or Lucky Pick from Spot 1 to Spot
10, Hi or Low. Twenty (20) Keno winning numbers, out of eighty (80) numbers, are electronically
drawn thru an application program called “Random Number Generator” which is being
simultaneously displayed in every outlet nationwide. The Keno draw is being held every 10
minutes’ interval, from 7:00 am to 12:00 mn, from Monday to Sunday. With the base price of
P10 only, jackpot prizes can be won ranging from a minimum of P25 (Spot 1) to as high as
P1,000,000 (Spot 10).
In pursuit of its mandate and directives of the President of the Philippines, the PCSO Board of
Directors conducted experimental test-run for the Small Town Lottery (STL) Operation, and
thereafter evaluated its feasibility. Through Board Resolution No. 2433, Series of 2009,
approved on December 18, 2009, the STL was declared as one of the regular products of the
PCSO. Further, Board Resolution No. 019, Series of 2016, approved the expansion of STL
operations in other provinces and cities.
The STL shall be implemented locally all over the country through Authorized Agent
Corporations (AACs), taking into consideration the manpower of the PCSO and other relevant
factors, as may be determined by the PCSO Board of Directors. It shall be the only legal and
14
authorized numbers game nationwide, and the PCSO AACs are the only entities or persons
authorized to operate and conduct the STL in their areas of operation.
a. To raise additional funds for PCSO’s health programs, medical assistance and services,
and charities of national character;
b. To provide funds to various local government units for their health programs and medical
assistance and services;
c. To provide an alternative to illegal number games/operations and to aid their eradication
(to stamp out jueteng and “masiao”); and
d. To provide additional opportunities for employment.
The STL area of Operation applied for by the AAC could be a province or a chartered city;
provided, however, that in the case of Metro Manila, the STL area of Operation shall be in
accordance with the following districts:
i. Southern District comprising of the Cities of Makati, Pateros, Taguig, Muntinlupa, Las
Piñas, Paranaque, and Pasay;
ii. Western District comprising the City of Manila only;
iii. Central District comprising Quezon City only;
iv. Northern District comprising the Cities of Caloocan, Malabon, Navotas and Valenzuela;
and
v. Eastern District comprising the Cities of Pasig, Mandaluyong, San Juan and Marikina.
Number

Swer2 1 – 31 A combination of two (2) numbers is drawn, one P1:P400
from each set within the number range.
Swer3 0–9 A combination of three (3) numbers is drawn, P1:P450
one from each set within the number range.
Pares 1 – 38 A combination of two (2) numbers is drawn, one P1:P800
from each set within the number range.
A player wins if his chosen combination matches that of the drawn combination in exact order. Other

by the PCSO Board of Directors.
The monthly share from STL sales is equivalent to 21.20% of the Gross Receipts for the STL
Charity Fund and 0.70% for the Operating Fund. On September 6, 2018, under Board
Resolution No. 0282, s. 2018, the PCSO’s monthly share for the STL Charity Fund increased to
21.20% on the third quarter of 2018 to extend allotment to Philippine National Police (PNP)
Health Services and National Bureau of Investigation (NBI).
15
The revised STL Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) aims to improve the STL
operations and cover the nationwide expansion of STL operations.
Hereunder are the changes in Revenue Allocation based on Board Resolution No. 511, series
of 2014 and its revised version under Board Resolution No. D-0020, s. 2016. The PNP share
was further revised on November 24, 2016 because of the PNP-intensified activities. Also under
Board Resolution No. 0063, s. 2017, Congressional District and Provincial Government shares
were revised on April 24, 2017. This was further amended in compliance with RA No. 10963 or
the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN law) and for the purpose of enhancing
and strengthening cooperation in curbing the operation of illegal number games under Board
Resolution No. 0282, s. 2018. In 2019, STL Circular No. 2019-003 was issued to be
implemented upon the resumption of the STL operations which was suspended under the
directive of President Rodrigo Duterte, as shown in the table below:

The PCSO Board of Directors approved the introduction and operation of the Instant
Sweepstakes project to generate continuing additional revenues for the Agency.
The National Instant Sweepstakes Program is being conducted with the Instant Sweepstakes
Authorized Corporation/s (ISACs) under a non-exclusive all-in contracts involving production,
distribution, marketing, advertising and selling of the said Instant Sweepstakes tickets
nationwide on a considered sold basis.
Powerball Marketing and Logistics Corporation (PMLC) is the PCSO’s Instant Sweepstakes
Authorized Corporation (ISAC) through Board Resolution No. 0226 (2017).
The PMLC guarantees Instant Sweepstakes sales of five billion pesos (P5,000,000,000.00) in
five (5) years term. In the guaranteed sales of P5 billion, the PCSO is guaranteed a 13% share
in the net proceeds of the sale of the Instant Sweepstakes tickets. In the event that there is an
excess in the guaranteed sales, PCSO will receive its corresponding share in the excess sales.
At the reopening of the Instant Sweepstakes after the suspension of PCSO operations on July
26, 2019, the following changes are incorporated in the existing Guidelines of the Instant
Sweepstakes:
1. PCSO shall have full control and supervision of the warehouse housing the Instant
Sweepstakes tickets;
2. PCSO shall have possession of the access keys to the warehouse, and
17
3. PCSO shall be notified of the withdrawal and deliveries of the tickets to and from the
warehouse.
The foregoing changes were done to strengthen PCSO’s control over the distribution of the
game tickets.
F. PERYAHAN
The Peryahan game is on a one year experimental/test run period, approved by virtue of a Deed
of Authority (DOA) dated April 2, 2014 executed by PCSO and Globaltech Mobile Online
Corporation (Globaltech). It started its selling operation on June 28, 2014 until June 27, 2015. It
has three games namely: “Hulog Holen”, “Throw Coins” and “Gulong ng Swertes.”
The games shall be conducted nationwide through authorized agents/retailers, but it will be
implemented on a local government level, e.g. Autonomous Region, Region, Province, City,
Municipality and Barangay. The draw will be held daily in all draw centers every 11am, 4pm and
9pm.
As of December 31, 2015, there were 15 Peryahan draw centers and more than 185 active
agents nationwide.
The Board approved the request of Globaltech for an extension of the experimental/test run
period three times in order to give them ample time to evaluate the feasibility of regularizing the
said game. However, during the evaluation, it was established that on several times between
July to December 2015, Globaltech failed to remit Peryahan Sales.
PCSO Board Resolution No. 51, series of 2016, terminated Globaltech’s DOA effective
February 17, 2016. The game concluded its experimental/test run operation on February 24,
2016.
Order dated October 11, 2016 of the Regional Trial Court (RTC) of Pasig City, Branch 161 in
Civil Case No. 75148 (Globaltech Online Corporation vs PCSO), suspending the termination of
Globaltech’s DOA was deferred and instead referred to arbitration.
On October 29, 2019, the Peryahan Games resumed operation following the decision of the
Court of Appeals and the Arbitration Proceeding reached by PCSO and Globaltech.
Eleven (11) of the original fifteen (15) Peryahan draw centers were found to be compliant after
having passed the PCSO’s initial technical evaluation. Peryahan will be played at the following
areas with no STL operations: Cebu City, NCR-Quezon City or Central District, Province of
Rizal, Province of Pangasinan, Province of Oriental Mindoro, Province of Bohol, Province of
Palawan, Puerto Princesa City, Zamboanga City and Province of Zamboanga del Sur.
On July 26, 2019, President Rodrigo Duterte, declared the suspension of all PCSO games due
to alleged “massive corruption”. Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo said that the
decision was reached by President Duterte as a report of a “grand conspiracy among the major
players and enforcers of these government-sanctioned gaming activities and enterprises to
cheat the government of its rightful shares, depriving therefore the masses of our people of
receiving basic services needed by them."
18
It was established after a thorough review of lotto games process that the integrity of the games
is intact and the suspension was lifted on July 30, 2019. The STL operation on the other hand
was put into rigorous specific condition before the suspension was lifted on August 22, 2019.
The Keno and National Instant Sweepstakes Program was the last to be back on operation on
September 28, 2019.

The financial statements of the PCSO for the year ended December 31, 2019 were approved
and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on July 7, 2020.
19
. FINANCIAL REPORTING FRAMEWORK AND BASIS OF PREPARATION AND
PRESENTATION
The financial statements of the PCSO have been prepared in accordance with PFRSs, which
includes all applicable PFRSs, Philippine Accounting Standards (PAS), and interpretations
issued by the Philippine Interpretations Committee (PIC) and Standing Interpretations
Committee (SIC) as approved by the Financial Reporting Standards Council (FRSC) and Board
of Accountancy (BOA) and adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The financial statements of the PCSO have been prepared on the historical cost basis unless
otherwise indicated.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for
goods and services.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of
whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In
estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the PCSO takes into account the
characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into
account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
For financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2 or 3
based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the
significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety; which are described as
follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
These financial statements are presented in Philippine Peso, the currency of the primary
economic environment in which the PCSO operates. All amounts are rounded to the nearest
peso, except when otherwise indicated.
20
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year, except
for the adoption of certain new PFRS and amendments to existing PFRS and PAS which
became effective for current period on or after January 1, 2019. Unless otherwise stated, the
adoption of the following new standards, interpretations and amendment does not have a
material effect on the financial statements:
Effective in CY 2019
STANDARDS
The new standard replaces PAS 11, Construction Contracts, PAS 18, Revenue and their related
interpretations. It establishes a single comprehensive framework for revenue recognition to
apply consistently across transactions, industries and capital markets, with a core principle
(based on five-step model to be applied to all contracts with customers), enhanced disclosures,
and new or improved guidance (e.g., the point at which revenue is recognized, accounting for
variable consideration, cost of fulfilling and obtaining a contract, etc.).
The amendments provide clarifications on the following topics: (a) identifying performance
obligations; (b) principal versus agent considerations; and (c) licensing. The amendments also
provide some transition relief for modified contracts and completed contracts. The Commission
on Audit (COA) issued Resolution No. 2019-006 dated March 27, 2019, prescribing the
mandatory application of PFRS 15 effective January 1, 2019.
This standard replaces the current guidance in PAS 17 and is a far-reaching change in
accounting by lessees in particular.
Under PAS 17, lessees were required to make a distinction between a finance lease (on
balance sheet) and an operating lease (off balance sheet). PFRS 16 now requires lessees to
recognize a lease liability reflecting future lease payments and a ‘right-of-use asset’ for virtually
all lease contracts.
The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has included an optional exemption for
certain short-term leases and leases of low-value assets; however, this exemption can only be
applied by lessees.
For lessors, the accounting stays almost the same. However, as the IASB has updated the
guidance on the definition of a lease (as well as the guidance on the combination and
separation of contracts), lessors will also be affected by the new standard. At the very least, the
new accounting model for lessees is expected to impact negotiations between lessors and
lessees.
Under PFRS 16, a contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the
use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
21
Effective annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 with earlier application permitted
if PFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, is also applied.
INTERPRETATIONS
The interpretation provides guidance on how to reflect the effects of uncertainty in accounting
for income taxes under PAS 12, Income Taxes, in particular (i) whether uncertain tax treatments
should be considered separately, (ii) assumptions for taxation authorities’ examinations, (iii)
determination of taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and
tax rates, and (iv) effect of changes in facts and circumstances.
AMENDMENTS
Amendments to PFRS 4, Insurance Contracts provide two options for entities that issue
insurance contracts within the scope of PFRS 4: an option that permits entities to reclassify,
from profit or loss to other comprehensive income, some of the income or expenses arising from
designated financial assets; this is the so-called overlay approach; an optional temporary
exemption from applying PFRS 9 for entities whose predominant activity is issuing contracts
within the scope of PFRS 4; this is the so-called deferral approach.
The application of both approaches is optional and an entity is permitted to stop applying them
before the new insurance contracts standard is applied.
Amends the existing requirements in PFRS 9 regarding termination rights in order to allow
measurement at amortized cost (or, depending on the business model, at fair value through
other comprehensive income) even in the case of negative compensation payments.
PAS 12 - The amendments clarify that the requirements in the former paragraph 52B (to
recognise the income tax consequences of dividends where the transactions or events
that generated distributable profits are recognised) apply to all income tax consequences
of dividends by moving the paragraph away from paragraph 52A that only deals with
situations where there are different tax rates for distributed and undistributed profits.
PAS 23 - The amendments clarify that if any specific borrowing remains outstanding
after the related asset is ready for its intended use or sale, that borrowing becomes part
of the funds that an entity borrows generally when calculating the capitalisation rate on
general borrowings.
The amendments in Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement (Amendments to PAS 19) are:
If a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement occurs, it is now mandatory that the current
service cost and the net interest for the period after the remeasurement are determined using
the assumptions used for the remeasurement.
In addition, amendments have been included to clarify the effect of a plan amendment,
curtailment or settlement on the requirements regarding the asset ceiling.
The Company will adopt the following revised standards, interpretations and amendments when
these become effective. Except as otherwise indicated, the Company does not expect the
adoption of these new and amended standards and interpretations to have significant impact on
its financial statements.
Effective in CY 2023
PFRS 17 requires insurance liabilities to be measured at a current fulfillment value and provides
a more uniform measurement and presentation approach for all insurance contracts.
23
The standard is not applicable to the Company.
Financial assets or financial liabilities are recognized in the Corporation’s Statement of Financial
Position when, and only when, the entity becomes party to the contractual provision of the
instruments. In the case of a regular way purchase or sale of financial assets, recognition and
derecognition, as applicable, is done using settlement date accounting. For purposes of
presenting financial instruments as liabilities or equity and for offsetting financial assets and
financial liabilities, PAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation is applied to the classification of
financial instruments, from the perspective of the issuer, into financial assets, financial liabilities
and equity instruments; the classification of related interest, dividends, losses and gains; and
the circumstances in which financial assets and liabilities should be offset.
Financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value, which is the fair value of the
consideration given (in case of an asset) or received (in case of a liability). The initial
measurement of financial instruments, except for those designated at fair value through profit
and loss (FVPL), includes transaction cost.
“Day 1” Difference. Where the transaction in a non-active market is different from the fair value
of other observable current market transactions in the same instrument or based on a valuation
technique whose variables include only data from observable market, the PCSO recognizes the
difference between the transaction price and fair value (a “Day 1” difference) in profit or loss. In
cases where there is no observable data on inception, the PCSO deems the transaction price
as the best estimate of fair value and recognizes “Day 1” difference in profit or loss when the
inputs become observable or when the instrument is derecognized. For each transaction, the
PCSO determines the appropriate method of recognizing the “Day 1” difference.
Financial assets and liabilities at FVPL are either classified as held for trading or designated at
FVPL. A financial instrument is classified as held for trading if it meets either of the following
conditions:
This category includes equity instruments which the PCSO had not irrevocably elected to
classify at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) at initial recognition. This
category includes debt instruments whose cash flows are not “solely for payment of principal
and interest” assessed at initial recognition of the assets, or which are not held within a
business model whose objective is either to collect contractual cash flows, or to both collect
contractual cash flows and sell.
The PCSO may, at initial recognition, designate a financial asset or financial liability meeting the
criteria to be classified at amortized cost or at FVOCI, as a financial asset or financial liability at
FVPL, if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces accounting mismatch that would arise from
24
measuring these assets or liabilities.
After initial recognition, financial assets at FVPL and held for trading financial liabilities are
subsequently measured at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses arising from the fair valuation
of financial assets at FVPL and held for trading financial liabilities are recognized in profit or
loss.
For financial liabilities designated at FVPL under the fair value option, the amount of change in
fair value that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is recognized in other
comprehensive income (rather than in profit or loss), unless this creates an accounting
mismatch. Amounts presented in other comprehensive income are not subsequently
transferred to profit or loss.
As at December 31, 2019 and 2018, the PCSO does not have financial assets and liabilities
classified as FV.
The PCSO classifies its financial assets at initial recognition under the following categories: (a)
financial assets at FVPL, (b) financial assets at amortized cost and (c) financial assets at
FVOCI. Financial liabilities, on the other hand, are classified as either financial liabilities at
FVPL or financial liabilities at amortized cost. The classification of a financial instrument largely
depends on the PCSO’s business model and its contractual cash flow characteristics.
Financial assets shall be measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:
the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold
financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise, on specified dates, to cash
flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding.
After initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost are subsequently measured at
amortized cost using the effective interest method, less allowance for impairment, if any.
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. Gains and losses are recognized in
profit or loss when the financial assets are derecognized and through amortization process.
Financial assets at amortized cost are included under current assets if realizability or
collectability is within 12 months after the reporting period. Otherwise, these are classified as
noncurrent assets.
As at December 31, 2019 and 2018, the PCSO’s cash and cash equivalents, receivables, short
term investments and long term investments (except externally managed funds recorded as
Financial Assets – Available for Sale Securities) are classified under this category.
the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold
financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and selling the financial
assets; and
the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise, on specified dates, to cash
flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding.
For equity instruments, the PCSO may irrevocably designate the financial asset to be measured
at FVOCI in case the above conditions are not met.
Financial assets at FVOCI are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. After initial
recognition, interest income (calculated using the effective interest rate method), foreign
currency gains or losses and impairment losses of debt instruments measured at FVOCI are
recognized directly in profit or loss. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative
gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified from
equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment.
Dividends from equity instruments held at FVOCI are recognized in profit or loss when the right
to receive payment is established, unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of
the cost of the investment. Foreign currency gains or losses and unrealized gains or losses
from equity instruments are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in the
equity section of the Statements of Financial Position. These fair value changes are recognized
in equity and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
As at December 31, 2019 and 2018, the PCSO’s externally managed funds (included in the long
term investment account) are classified as FVOCI.
Below is the Corporation’s accounting policy on the impairment of financial assets applicable
starting January 1, 2018.
The PCSO records an allowance for “expected credit loss” (ECL). ECL is based on the
difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the
cash flows that the PCSO expects to receive. The difference is then discounted at an
approximation to the asset’s original effective interest rate.
For trade receivables, the PCSO has applied the simplified approach and has calculated ECLs
based on the lifetime expected credit losses. The PCSO has established a provision matrix that
is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to
the debtors and the economic environment.
For debt instruments measured at amortized cost and FVOCI, the ECL is based on the 12-
month ECL, which pertains to the portion of lifetime ECLs that result from default events on a
financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. However, when
26
there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the allowance will be
based on the lifetime ECL. When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has
increased significantly since initial recognition, the PCSO compares the risk of a default
occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring
on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition and consider reasonable and
supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, that is indicative of
significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition. This includes both quantitative and
qualitative information and analysis, based on the Corporation’s historical experience, informed
credit assessment including current conditions and forecast of future economic conditions.
The Corporation assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it
is more than two years past due.
The borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Corporation in full,
without recourse by the Corporation to actions such as realizing security
(if any is held); or
The financial asset is more than two years past due.
The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over
which the Corporation is exposed to credit risk.
At each reporting date, the Corporation assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized
cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit-impaired’ when
one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the
financial asset have occurred.
Below is the Corporation’s accounting policy on the impairment of financial assets applicable for
the current period:
A financial asset (or where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar
financial assets) is derecognized when:
the right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired;
the PCSO retains the right to receive cash flows from the financial 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 PCSO has transferred its right to receive cash flows from the financial asset
and either (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
(b) has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of
the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
27
When the PCSO has transferred its right to receive cash flows from a financial asset or has
entered into a pass-through arrangement, and has neither transferred nor retained substantially
all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset nor transferred control of the
financial asset, the financial asset is recognized to the extent of the PCSO’s continuing
involvement in the financial asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee
over the transferred financial asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of
the financial asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the PCSO could be required
to repay.
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Corporation classified as either financial liabilities or
as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions
of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
Financial Liabilities
Initial recognition
Financial liabilities are categorized as financial liabilities at amortized cost when the substance
of the contractual arrangement results in the PCSO having an obligation either to deliver cash or
another financial asset to the holder, or to settle the obligation other than by the exchange of a
fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of its own equity instruments.
These financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value less any directly attributable
transaction costs. After initial recognition, these financial liabilities are subsequently measured
at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into
account any discount or premium on the issue and fees that are an integral part of the effective
interest rate. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liabilities are
derecognized or through the amortization process.
As at December 31, 2019 and 2018, the PCSO’s accounts payable and inter-agency payables
(except statutory payables) are classified under this category.
Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at FVTPL or other financial
liabilities.
Financial liabilities at FVTPL when the financial liability is held for trading; designated upon
initial recognition; either held for trading or designated upon initial recognition.
A financial liability other than a financial liability held for trading may be designated as at FVTPL
upon initial recognition if:
Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on
remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss
incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability and is included in the other gains and
losses line item in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Fair value is determined in the
manner described in notes.
Other financial liabilities (including borrowings) are subsequently measured at amortized cost
using the effective interest method.
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged,
cancelled or has expired. When 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, and the difference in the respective
carrying amounts is recognized in the Statements of Comprehensive Income.
A modification is considered substantial if the present value of the cash flows under the new
terms, including net fees paid or received and discounted using the original effective interest
rate, is different by at least 10% from the discounted present value of remaining cash flows of
the original liability.
The fair value of the modified financial liability is determined based on its expected cash flows,
discounted using the interest rate at which the PCSO could raise debt with similar terms and
conditions in the market. The difference between the carrying value of the original liability and
fair value of the new liability is recognized in the Statements of Comprehensive Income.
29
On the other hand, if the difference does not meet the 10% threshold, the original debt is not
extinguished but merely modified. In such case, the carrying amount is adjusted by the costs or
fees paid or received in the restructuring.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Statements
of Financial Position if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the
recognized amounts and there is intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and
settle the liability simultaneously. This is not generally the case with master netting agreements,
and the related assets and liabilities are presented gross in the Statements of Financial
Position.
If the PCSO 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.
Equity Instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity
after deducting all of its liabilities. The equity of the PCSO consists of the following:
a. Retained Earnings
Retained Earnings represent accumulated profit attributable to equity holders of the Corporation
after deducting dividends declared. The Corporation remits 50% of its annual earnings to the
national government as mandated under RA No. 7656 and its Revised Implementing Rules and
Regulations (IRR). Retained earnings may also include effect of changes in accounting policy
and prior period adjustments.
b. Charity Fund
Charity Fund represents the thirty per cent (30%) share of net receipts (Gross sales less 2%
printing cost) from which the Board of Directors, in consultation with the Ministry of Human
Settlements on identified priority programs, needs, and requirements in specific communities
and with approval of the Office of the President, shall make payments or grants for health
programs, including the expansion of existing ones, medical assistance and services and/or
charities of national character such as the Philippine National Red Cross, under such policies
and subject to such rules and regulations as the Board may from time establish and promulgate.
The Board may apply part of the contributions to the charity fund to approved investments of the
30
Office pursuant Section 1(B) hereof, but in no case shall such application to investments exceed
ten per cent (10%) of the net receipts from the sale of sweepstakes tickets in any given year
c. Prize Fund
Prize Fund represents the fifty-five per cent (55%) share of net receipts (Gross sales less 2%
printing cost) set aside for the payment of prizes, including those for the owners, jockeys of
running horses, and sellers of winning tickets.
Prizes not claimed by the public within one (1) year from date of draw shall be considered as
forfeited, and shall form part of the charity fund for disposition as stated.
d. Operating Fund
Operating Fund represents the fifteen per cent (15%) share of net receipts (Gross sales less 2%
printing cost) set aside as contributions to the operating expenses and capital expenditures of
the Office.
All balances of any funds shall revert to and form part of the charity fund and shall be subject to
dispositions as stated.
3.5 Inventories
Inventories include Drugs and Medicines for Distribution, Office Supplies Inventory, Accountable
Forms, Plates and Stickers Inventory, Medical, Dental and Laboratory Supplies, Play/Bet Slips
and Thermal Rolls Inventory and Other Supplies and Materials Inventory.
Inventories are initially measured at cost. Subsequently, inventories are stated at the lower of
cost and net realizable value. The costs of inventories are calculated using the weighted
average method.
When the net realizable value of the inventories is lower than the cost, the PCSO recognizes an
impairment loss for the decline in the value of the inventory. The amount of any reversal of any
write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realizable value, is recognized in profit
or loss in the period in which the reversal occurs.
When inventories are consumed, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognized as an
expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Prepayments and other current assets represent assets of the PCSO that are expected to be
realized or consumed within one year from the reporting dates. These are initially recorded at
the amount of cash paid and are charged to profit or loss as they are consumed in operations or
expire with the passage of time.
Investment properties are properties that are held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or
both but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods
31
or services or for administrative purposes. Investment properties are measured initially at cost,
including transaction costs.
Subsequent to initial recognition, investment property is measured at cost less any accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over an estimated life of 30
years.
Transfers to, or from, investment property is made only when there is a change in use.
Transfers to or from investment property is recognized at the carrying amount of the asset
transferred. Accordingly, no gain or loss is recognized from these transfers.
Property and equipment are initially measured at cost. The cost of an item of property and
equipment comprises:
its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes,
after deducting trade discounts and rebates;
any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition
necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by
management; and
the initial estimate of the future costs of dismantling and removing the item and
restoring the site on which it is located, the obligation for which an entity incurs
either when the item is acquired or as a consequence of having used the item
during a particular period for purposes other than to produce inventories during
that period.
At the end of each reporting period, items of property and equipment are measured at cost less
any subsequent accumulated depreciation and impairment losses
Properties in the course of construction are carried at cost, less any recognized impairment
loss. Cost includes professional fees and for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalized in
accordance with the PCSO’s accounting policy. Depreciation of these assets, on the same
basis as other property assets, commences at the time the assets become ready for their
intended use.
Intangible Assets include computer software that are not integral part of the computer. These
are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated
amortization and any accumulated impairment loss. These are amortized over estimated useful
life of 1 year and 3 years using the straight–line method. If there is an indication that there has
been a significant change in amortization rate, useful life or residual value of an intangible asset,
the amortization is revised prospectively to reflect the new expectations.
At each reporting date, non-financial assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any
indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If there is an indication of
possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any affected asset (or group of related assets)
32
is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If estimated recoverable amount is lower,
the carrying amount is reduced to its estimated recoverable amount, and an impairment loss is
recognized immediately in profit and loss.
If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to
the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in excess of the amount that would have
been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. A
reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Items of non-financial assets are derecognized when these assets are disposed of or when no
future economic benefits are expected from these assets. Any difference between the carrying
value of the asset derecognized and net proceeds from derecognition is recognized in profit or
loss.
Related party relationship exists when one party has the ability to control, directly, or indirectly
through one or more intermediaries, the other party or exercises significant influence over the
other party in making financial and operating decisions. Such relationships also exist between
and/or among the reporting enterprises and its key management personnel, directors, or its
shareholders. In considering each possible related party relationship, attention is directed to the
substance of the relationship, and not merely the legal form.
Revenue
Prior to adoption of PFRS 15, revenue is recognized to the extent that the revenue can be
reliably measured, it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company, and the
revenue incurred or to be incurred can be measured reliably. The following specific recognition
criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized.
Upon adoption of PFRS 15, revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or
services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company
expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services based on a five-step model:
Depending on whether the PCSO is acting as a principal or as an agent, its main revenue arises
from the sale of the following:
33
As principal, the contract is established between the betting customer and the PCSO at the time
the customer places his bet. The bettor places his bet for a consideration of his choice which
ranges from P10 to P20 per numbers combination, with the expectation that the PCSO issues
the corresponding ticket for the bet. Revenue is recognized only when both the performance
obligations (an exchange of bet price and bet ticket) of the betting customer and the PCSO are
satisfied.
Revenue from the sale of tickets is recognized at the time of sale, except for advance sales.
These advance sales are recognized as revenue at the time lotteries were drawn.
Of the total revenue, fifty-five per cent (55%) is allocated to the Prize Fund for payment of
prizes, including those for the owners, jockeys of running horses, and sellers of winning tickets.
Another thirty per cent (30%) is allocated to the Charity Fund from which identified priority
programs, needs and requirements in specific communities take payments or grants for health
programs, including the expansion of existing ones, medical assistance and services, and/or
charities of national character. The remaining fifteen per cent (15%)’, meanwhile, is set aside to
the Operating Fund as contributions to the operating expenses and capital expenditures of
PCSO.
b. STL tickets
As principal, the contract is established between the AAC and the PCSO, with the latter
authorizing the AAC to operate its own localized lottery game/s, upon agreeing to the terms set
by the PCSO. The transaction price involves a guaranteed minimum monthly retail receipts
which the AAC commits to remit. Revenue is recognized when the AAC declares its reported
sales for the month.
As principal, the contract is established between the ISAC and the PCSO, whereby the PCSO
remains to have full operational control and supervision of the Instant Sweepstakes. ISAC will
have the authority, granted by PCSO, to produce, distribute, market, advertise and sell Instant
Sweepstakes tickets. The transaction price is the guaranteed five billion pesos
(P5,000,000,000.00) in a 5-year term. Revenue is recognized based on the guaranteed sales
per year.
Interest Revenue
Interest revenue is accrued on a time proportion basis, by reference to the principal outstanding
and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated
future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying
amount.
Under prevailing circumstances, the adoption of the PFRS 15 is not expected to have any
material effect on the financial statements of the Corporation.
Expenses are recognized in profit or loss when decrease in future economic benefit related to a
decrease in an asset or an increase in a liability has arisen that can be measured reliably.
34
Expenses are recognized in profit or loss: on the basis of a direct association between the costs
incurred and the earning of specific items of income; on the basis of systematic and rational
allocation procedures when economic benefits are expected to arise over several accounting
periods and the association with income can only be broadly or indirectly determined; or
immediately when an expenditure produces no future economic benefits or when, and to the
extent that, future economic benefits do not qualify, or cease to qualify, for recognition in the
Statements of Financial Position as an asset.
Expenses in the Statement of Comprehensive Income are presented using the function of
expense method. Costs of sales are expenses incurred that are associated with the goods sold.
Operating expenses are costs attributable to administrative, marketing, selling and other
business activities of the PCSO.
3.14 Leases
The following amendments to existing standards have been adopted by the PCSO effective
January 1, 2019:
PFRS 16 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure
of leases and requires lessees to account for all leases under a single on-balance sheet model
similar to the accounting for finance leases under PAS 17, Leases. The standard includes two
recognition exemptions for lessees - leases of ’low-value’ assets (e.g., personal computers) and
short-term leases (i.e., leases with a lease term of 12 months or less). At the commencement
date of a lease, a lessee will recognize a liability to make lease payments (i.e., the lease liability)
and an asset representing the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term (i.e., the
right-of-use asset). Lessees will be required to separately recognize the interest expense on the
lease liability and the depreciation expense on the right-of-use asset.
Lessees will be also required to remeasure the lease liability upon the occurrence of certain
events (e.g., a change in the lease term, a change in future lease payments resulting from a
change in an index or rate used to determine those payments). The lessee will generally
recognize the amount of the remeasurement of the lease liability as an adjustment to the right-
of-use asset.
Lessor accounting under PFRS 16 is substantially unchanged from today’s accounting under
PAS 17. Lessors will continue to classify all leases using the same classification principle as in
PAS 17 and distinguish between two types of leases: operating and finance leases.
PFRS 16 also requires lessees and lessors to make more extensive disclosures than under
PAS 17. A lessee can choose to apply the standard using either a full retrospective or a
modified retrospective approach. The standard’s transition provisions permit certain reliefs.
The PCSO assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract. This
assessment involves the exercise of judgement about whether it depends on a specified asset,
whether the PCSO obtains substantially all the economic benefits from the use of that asset,
and whether the PCSO has the right to direct the use of the asset.
35
The PCSO recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability at the lease
commencement date, except for short-term leases of 12 months or less which are expensed in
the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not
paid at the commencement date, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate of 5.18%
based on the issued T-Bills of BSP with a similar term, as the implicit rate cannot be determined
in the lease contract.
ROU assets are included in the heading Property, Plant and Equipment – Leased Assets, and
the lease liability is included in the headings Current Financial Liabilities.
The PCSO adopted PFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach effective for reporting
periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 and to apply the new standard to contracts that
were previously identified as leases under PAS 17. Likewise, the PCSO will not apply the
standard to contracts that were not previously identified as lease under PAS 17.

3.15 Employee Benefits
Short-term Benefits
The PCSO recognizes an expense for services rendered by employees during the accounting
period. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the PCSO 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.
Terminal leave benefits are computed based on the actual leave credits earned by employees
as of reporting date. The amount reported as liability in the Statement of Financial Position is
based on the employee’s salary grade as of reporting dates.
The total terminal leave liability as of December 31, 2019 amounted to P193,901,378 recorded
in the account Leave Benefits Payable.
Income tax expense represents the sum of the current tax and deferred tax expense.
Current Tax
The current tax expense is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net
profit as reported in the Statements of Comprehensive Income because it excludes items of
income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items
that are never taxable or deductible. The PCSO’s current tax liability is calculated using 30%
regular corporate income tax (RCIT) rate of PCSO as a taxable entity. Republic Act (RA) No.
10963 or the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) law excluded PCSO from the
list of exempted corporations in paying income tax.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the
computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable
temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary
differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which
those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities
are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of assets and
liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
37
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available
to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the
period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that
have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would
follow from the manner in which the PCSO expects, at the end of the reporting period, to
recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that
are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current
and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity,
respectively.
The accounting records of the PCSO are maintained in Philippine pesos. Foreign currency
transactions during the year are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates which
approximate those prevailing on transaction dates.
Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from
the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in
foreign currencies are recognized in profit or loss.
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with PFRSs requires the PCSO to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements
and accompanying notes. Future events may occur which will cause the assumption used in
arriving at the estimates to change. The effects of changes in estimates will be reflected in the
financial statements as they become reasonably determinable.
Judgments
In the process of applying the PCSO’s accounting policies, Management has made the following
judgments, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the
amounts recognized in the financial statements.
The PCSO classifies a financial instrument, or its component parts, on initial recognition, as a
financial asset, a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of
the contractual arrangement and the definition of a financial asset, a financial liability or an
equity instrument.
38
The substance of a financial instrument, rather than its legal form, governs its classification in
the Statements of Financial Position.
Estimates
The following are the key 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.
Estimating Useful Lives of Property and Equipment
The PCSO estimates the useful lives of its property and equipment based on the period over
which these assets are expected to be available for use. The estimated useful lives of these
assets and residual values are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, only if there is a significant
change in the asset or how it is used.
The following estimated useful lives are used in depreciating the property and equipment:
The carrying amounts of the PCSO’s property and equipment as at December 31, 2019 and
2018, totaled to P931,243,608 and P795,340,105, respectively. Depreciation cost charged to
operation amounts to P39,996,043 and P105,021,608 in 2019 and 2018, respectively.
3.19 Provisions
Provisions are recognized when present obligations will probably lead to an outflow of economic
resources and they can be estimated reliably even if the timing or amount of the outflow may
still be uncertain. A present obligation arises from the presence of a legal or constructive
commitment that has resulted from past events.
39
Provisions are measured at the estimated expenditure required to settle the present obligation,
based on the most reliable evidence available at the Statement of Financial Position date,
including the risks and uncertainties associated with the present obligation. In those cases,
when the possible outflow of economic resources as a result of present obligations is
considered improbable or remote, or the amount to be provided for cannot be measured
reliably, no liability is recognized in the financial statements.
Probable inflows of economic benefits that do not yet meet the recognition criteria of an asset
are considered contingent assets, hence, are not recognized in the financial statements.
On March 17, 2020, the operation of the PCSO was suspended due to Presidential
Proclamation Nos. 922 and 929 (2020) declaring a state of public health emergency throughout
the Philippines due to Corona Virus Disease 2019 or COVID-19.
The closures are expected to reduce some of the expenses of the PCSO such as the equipment
rent expenses for the lotto terminals, utility and communication expenses and other
maintenance and operating expenses.
On April 15, 2020, the PCSO resumes the processing of requests for medical assistance in its
effort to reach out to people and assist the national government in its fight against the COVID-
19.
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the
Corporation’s risk management framework. The Board has established the Corporation’s credit,
finance, operational risk and executive committees, which are responsible for developing and
monitoring Corporation’s risk management policies in their specific areas.
All board committees have executive and non-executive members and report regularly to the
Board of Directors on their activities.
PCSO’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the
Corporation, to set appropriate risk limits and control, and to monitor risks and adherence to
limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes to
market conditions, products and services offered. PCSO, through its training and management
standards and procedures, aims to develop disciplined and constructive control environment, in
which all employees understand their roles and obligations.
The Corporation audit committee is responsible for monitoring compliance with PCSO’s risk
management policies and procedures and for reviewing the adequacy of the risk management
40
framework in relation to the risk faced by the Corporation and it is regularly discussed in the
Board meeting.
Generally, the maximum risk exposure of financial assets and financial liabilities is the carrying
amount of the financial assets and financial liabilities as shown in the Statements of Financial
Position, as summarized below:
Financial Liabilities:
Financial liabilities - current portion 16 9,770,565,093 8,217,714,734
Inter-agency payables * 17 16,873,199 20,259,687
Trust liabilities 21 5,463,058,792 4,056,921,242
Total 15,250,497,084 12,294,895,663
* excluding statutory payables amounting to P378,898,722 and P700,567,118 as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively
Credit risk refers to the risk that the client will default on its contractual obligation resulting in
financial loss to the Corporation. PCSO has adopted a policy of dealing only with creditworthy
clients and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of
financial loss from defaults.
Also, PCSO manages its credit risk by depositing its cash with high credit quality banking
institutions.
The PCSO Board of Directors has approved guidelines/implementing rules and regulations to
manage the credit risk exposure. The PCSO has adopted the Revised Rules and Regulations
(RRR) Governing the Conduct and Operations of the Philippine On-Line Lottery and the
Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations (RIRR) Governing the Conduct and Operations of
the Small Town Lottery (STL). The implementing rules and regulations explicitly state the
provisions for the Imposition of Penalties and Procedures in case of agents’ default on the
remittance of sales.
It also requires imposition of security/cash bonds to Lotto/Keno agents and Authorized STL
Agents (ASA) in order to ensure remedial collection of unremitted sale
The PCSO will request authority from COA for the write-off of receivable balance (and any
related allowances for impairment losses) when it has determined that the receivables are finally
uncollectible after exhausting its efforts to collect and legal action.
41
4.3 Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Corporation might encounter difficulty in meeting obligation from
its financial liabilities.
The Corporation’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will
always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed
conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Corporation’s
reputation.
The Corporation seeks to manage its liquidity profile to be able to finance capital expenditures
as well as its current operations. To cover its financing requirements, the Corporation intends to
use internally generated funds and available short-term credit facilities.
As part of its liquidity risk management, the Corporation regularly evaluates its projected and
actual cash flows. It also continually assesses conditions in the financial markets for
opportunities to pursue fund raising activities, in case any requirements arise. Fund raising
activities may include bank loans and subsidies from the national government or government
owned and controlled corporations.
The liquidity risk is the adverse situation when the Corporation encounters difficulty in meeting
unconditionally the settlement of its obligations at maturity. Prudent liquidity management
requires that liquidity risks are identified, measured, monitored and controlled in a
comprehensive and timely manner. Liquidity management is a major component of the
corporate-wide risk management system. Liquidity planning takes into consideration various
possible changes in economic, market, political, regulatory and other external factors that may
affect the liquidity position of the Corporation.
Market risk is the risk that changes in the market prices, such as interest rate, equity prices,
foreign exchange rates and credit spreads (not relating to changes in the obligor’s issuer’s credit
standing) will affect the Corporation’s income or the value of its holdings of financial
instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk
exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return on risk.
The management of interest rate risk against interest gap limits is supplemented by monitoring
the sensitivity of the Corporation’s financial assets and liabilities to various standard and non-
standard interest rate scenarios.
42
4.5 Operational Risks
Operational risk is the risk of direct or indirect loss arising from a wide variety of causes
associated with the Corporation’s processes, personnel, technology and infrastructure, and from
external factors other than credit, market and liquidity risks such as those arising from legal and
regulatory requirements and generally accepted standards of corporate behavior. Operational
risks arise from all of the Corporation’s operations and are faced by all business entities.
The primary responsibility for the development and implementation of control to address
operational risk is assigned to senior management within each business unit. This responsibility
is supported by the development of overall standards for the management of operational risk in
the following areas:

Section 3 of RA No. 7656 dated November 9, 1993 and its Revised Implementing Rules and
Regulations (IRR) require Government Owned and/or Controlled Corporations (GOCC) to
declare and remit at least fifty per cent (50%) of their annual earnings as dividends to the
National Government.
The Commission on Audit (COA) issued audit observations pertaining to PCSO’s non-payment
of dividends for CYs 2012, 2013 and 2014 in the total amount of P4,034,319,731. However,
due to the provision in R.A No. 1169, otherwise known as the “PCSO Charter”, PCSO is
mandated that all balances of any funds shall regularly revert to and form part of the Charity
Fund, thus, there is nothing left to be declared and remitted as dividend. This matter has been
referred to the Department of Finance (DOF).
On March 16, 2016, the DOF clarified PCSO’s exemption from RA No. 7656, in its reply to the
COA’s inquiry regarding the applicability of The Dividends Law to PCSO.
83
The DOF confirms that PCSO is not exempt from RA No. 7656, however, DOF recognizes that
PCSO’s Charter, RA No. 1169, mandates that all balances of any funds will be reverted to and
form part of the Charity Fund.
Likewise, DOF, through its then Asst. Secretary and Officer-in-Charge of the Corporate Affairs
Group and the Privatization and Office of Special Concerns shared that “DOF, PCSO and
Governance Commission for Government-Owned and/or Controlled Corporations (GCG) on 25
August 2015, it was agreed that PCSO will have to revert all accumulated surplus to the Charity
Fund in compliance with its Charter; then, DOF shall further reassess PCSO’s outstanding
dividend due, if any.”
DOF also recognized that PCSO does not have any outstanding dividends due covering prior
years until 2014, since unutilized Operating Fund was transferred to the Charity Fund.
On December 20, 2016, the Office of the Government Corporate Counsel (OGCC) rendered an
opinion on the applicability of the Dividends Law to PCSO. The OGCC is of the opinion that
since PCSO’s earnings has already been allocated, the remittance of 50% of its income to the
National Treasury is a violation of PCSO’s mandate. OGCC mentioned that “while PCSO
cannot remit dividends to the National Government, it is the public at large that in a way reaps
the benefits through the vital public service that they render, funding individual and institutional
assistance, as well as special programs”. It was further recommended that any deviation from
PCSO’s Charter should have corresponding amendment to the mandate of the law creating it.
In the DOF’s letter dated May 18, 2017, it was specified that PCSO has an outstanding dividend
due to National Government in the amount of P4,034.32 million for Fiscal Years (FYs) 2012 to
2014 and P1,202.50 million for FY 2016 or a total of P5,236.82 million.
On January 17, 2018, the COA Legal Services Sector, rendered an Opinion on the nature and
extent of the obligation of the PCSO relative to the declaration and remittance of dividends to
the National Government under RA No. 7656 and its IRR.
The COA Legal Affairs Office is of the position that “Section 3 of R.A. 7656 provides that all
GOCCs shall declare and remit at least 50% of their annual earnings as cash stock or property
dividends to the National Government while Section 6(D) of R.A. No. 1169 provides that all
balances of any funds in the PCSO shall revert to and form part of the Charity Fund.” It further
stated that “the provisions should be interpreted in a way that they can be harmonized in
accordance with the rules on statutory construction. Thus, the interpretation that any balance
from the Operating Fund will be reverted back to Charity Fund only after the declaration and
remittance of the required dividends under R.A. No. 7656, is more in accord with the purposes
and intents of the two laws.”
The COA Legal Affairs Office concluded that pending the approval of the President exempting
the PCSO from the unpaid dividends, the provision of RA No. 7656 on the remittance of
dividends should be applied in conjunction with PCSO’s Charter.
In May 2018, PCSO remitted Pesos: Two Billion Five Hundred Thirty Five Million Two Hundred
Eighty Nine Thousand One Hundred Fourteen and 49/100 (P2,535,289,114.49) to the Bureau of
