would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for the<br />

asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in profit or loss.<br />

Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually or more frequently, if events or changes in<br />

circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Impairment is determined for<br />

goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of the CGU or group of CGUs to which the<br />

goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the CGU or group of CGUs is less than the<br />

carrying amount of the CGU or group of CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated, an<br />

impairment loss is recognized immediately in the profit or loss. Impairment loss relating to<br />

goodwill cannot be reversed for subsequent increases in its recoverable amount in future periods.<br />

Financial Instruments<br />

Financial instruments are recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position, when the<br />

Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Company<br />

determines the classification of its financial instruments on initial recognition and, where allowed<br />

and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation of each financial reporting date.<br />

All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the trade date, which is<br />

the date that the Company commits to purchase the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are<br />

purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally<br />

established by regulation or convention in the marketplace. Derivatives are also recognized on a<br />

trade date basis.<br />

Financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value of the consideration given (in the case<br />

of an asset) or received (in the case of a liability). Except for financial instruments at fair value<br />

through profit or loss (FVPL), the initial measurement of financial instruments includes<br />

transaction costs. The Company classifies its financial assets into the following categories:<br />

financial assets at FVPL, held-to-maturity (HTM) investments, A<strong>FS</strong> investments, and loans and<br />

receivables. For financial liabilities, the Company classifies them into financial liabilities at FVPL<br />

and other financial liabilities. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments<br />

were acquired and whether they are quoted in an active market.<br />

Financial instruments are classified as liability or equity in accordance with the substance of the<br />

contractual arrangement. Interest, dividends, gains and losses relating to a financial instrument or a<br />

component that is a financial liability, are reported as expense or income. Distributions to holders of<br />

financial instruments classified as equity are charged directly to equity, net of any related income tax<br />

benefit.<br />

Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities at FVPL<br />

Financial assets and financial liabilities at FVPL include those held for trading and those designated<br />

upon initial recognition as at FVPL.<br />

Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for<br />

the purpose of selling and repurchasing in the near term. Derivatives, including separated<br />

embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective<br />

hedging instruments or a financial guarantee contract. Gains or losses on investments held for<br />

trading are recognized in the profit or loss as part of “Other income (charges)” presented under<br />

“Miscellaneous income (charges) - net” account.<br />

Financial assets or financial liabilities may be designated at initial recognition as at FVPL if the<br />

following criteria are met: (a) the designation eliminates or significantly reduces the inconsistent<br />

treatment that would otherwise arise from measuring the assets or recognizing gains or losses on<br />

them on a different basis; or (b) the assets and liabilities are part of a group of financial assets,<br />
