<strong>EDC</strong> <strong>2014</strong> Performance Report<br />
The nature and the impact of each new standard or amendment are described below:<br />
Investment Entities (Amendments to PFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements, PFRS 12,<br />
Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, and PAS 27, Separate Financial Statements)<br />
These amendments provide an exception to the consolidation requirement for entities that<br />
meet the definition of an investment entity under PFRS 10. The exception to consolidation<br />
requires investment entities to account for subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss. The<br />
amendments must be applied retrospectively, subject to certain transition relief.<br />
These amendments have no impact to the Company, since none of the entities within the<br />
Company qualifies to be an investment entity under PFRS 10.<br />
PAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial<br />
Liabilities (Amendments)<br />
These amendments clarify the meaning of ‘currently has a legally enforceable right to set-off’<br />
and the criteria for non-simultaneous settlement mechanisms of clearing houses to qualify for<br />
offsetting and are applied retrospectively<br />
These amendments have no impact on the Company, since none of the entities in the<br />
Company has any offsetting arrangements.<br />
PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement - Novation of Derivatives and<br />
Continuation of Hedge Accounting (Amendments)<br />
These amendments provide relief from discontinuing hedge accounting when novation of a<br />
derivative designated as a hedging instrument meets certain criteria and retrospective<br />
application is required. These amendments have no impact on the Company as the Company<br />
has not novated its derivatives during the current or prior periods.<br />
PAS 36, Impairment of Assets - Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets<br />
(Amendments)<br />
These amendments remove the unintended consequences of PFRS 13, Fair Value<br />
Measurement, on the disclosures required under PAS 36. In addition, these amendments<br />
require disclosure of the recoverable amounts for assets or cash-generating units (CGUs) for<br />
which impairment loss has been recognized or reversed during the period.<br />
The application of these amendments has no impact on the disclosure in the Company’s<br />
consolidated financial statements.<br />
Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 21, Levies (IFRIC 21)<br />
IFRIC 21 clarifies that an entity recognizes a liability for a levy when the activity that triggers<br />
payment, as identified by the relevant legislation, occurs. For a levy that is triggered upon<br />
reaching a minimum threshold, the interpretation clarifies that no liability should be<br />
anticipated before the specified minimum threshold is reached. Retrospective application is<br />
required for IFRIC 21.<br />
