2. Summary of significant accounting policies<br />

2.1 Basis for the preparation of financial statements<br />

<strong>The</strong> accounting policies used are consistent with those applied in the previous year, except for the newly adopted<br />

st<strong>and</strong>ards <strong>and</strong> interpretations as presented below.<br />

IAS 1 Revised Presentation of Financial Statements<br />

<strong>The</strong> revised St<strong>and</strong>ard separates owner <strong>and</strong> non-owner changes in equity. <strong>The</strong> statement of changes in equity includes only<br />

details of transactions with owners, with non-owner changes in equity presented as a single line. In a<strong>dd</strong>ition, the St<strong>and</strong>ard<br />

introduces the statement of comprehensive income; it presents all items of recognised income <strong>and</strong> expense, either in one<br />

single statement, or in two linked statements. <strong>The</strong><strong>Group</strong> has elected to present two statements.<br />

IAS 23 Borrowing Costs (Revised)<br />

<strong>The</strong> definition of borrowing costs is revised to consolidate the two types of items that are considered components of ‘borrowing<br />

costs’ into one - the interest expense calculated using the effective interest rate method in accordance with IAS 39. <strong>The</strong> <strong>KD</strong><br />

<strong>Group</strong> has amended its accounting policy accordingly. This amendment did not have any impact on the <strong>Group</strong>’s financial<br />

statements<br />

IFRS 2 Share-based Payment - Vesting Conditions <strong>and</strong> Cancellations<br />

<strong>The</strong> St<strong>and</strong>ard has been amended to clarify the definition of vesting conditions <strong>and</strong> to prescribe the accounting treatment of an<br />

award that is effectively cancelled because a non-vesting condition is not satisfied. <strong>The</strong> adoption of this amendment did not<br />

have any impact on the financial position or performance of the <strong>Group</strong>.<br />

IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures<br />

<strong>The</strong> amended st<strong>and</strong>ard requires a<strong>dd</strong>itional disclosure about fair value measurement <strong>and</strong> liquidity risk. Fair value<br />

measurements are to be disclosed by source of inputs using a three level hierarchy for each class of financial instrument. In<br />

a<strong>dd</strong>ition, reconciliation between the beginning <strong>and</strong> ending balance for Level 3 fair value measurements is now required, as<br />

well significant transfers between Level 1 <strong>and</strong> Level 2 fair value measurements. <strong>The</strong> amendments also clarify the<br />

requirements for liquidity risk disclosures. <strong>The</strong> fair value measurement disclosures <strong>and</strong> the liquidity risk disclosures are<br />

impacted by the amendments (Note 5.6.)<br />

IFRS 8 Operating Segments<br />

<strong>The</strong> new St<strong>and</strong>ard requires an entity to adopt “management approach” to reporting on the financial performance of its operating<br />

segments. As such it replaces the requirement for determining <strong>and</strong> reporting by business <strong>and</strong> regional segments. If the<br />

numbers used by management for internal performance measurement of operating segments are different to the numbers<br />

reported in the financial statements, this requires a reconciliation of numbers used by management to the financial statements.<br />

IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation <strong>and</strong> IAS 1 Puttable Financial Instruments <strong>and</strong> Obligations Arising on Liquidation<br />

<strong>The</strong> St<strong>and</strong>ards have been amended to allow a limited scope exception for puttable financial instruments to be classified as<br />

equity if they fulfil a number of specified criteria. <strong>The</strong> adoption of this amendment did not have any impact on the financial<br />

position or performance of the <strong>Group</strong>.<br />
