  7. IFRS 10Consolidated financial statements

  8. Fundamental principle IFRS 10 IAS 27/SIC 12 • Consolidation is based on control • IAS 27: control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits • SIC 12: in an SPE, exposure to the majority of risks and rewards may be the determining factor in establishing control • Consolidation is based on control • Control may be obtained in various manners, and not solely as a result of the power to direct the financial and operating policies • Exposure to risks/rewards is one of the factors necessary in order control, but it is never the determining factor • Need to consider all substantive rights over investee, including voting and other contractual rights IFRS 10 requires extensive use of judgment (IFRS 12 requires disclosure of areas of judgment) ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  9. Definition of control An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee Power Substantive rights to direct « relevant activities » Exposure (rights) to variable returns Potential variability to positive or negative returns (broad definition of returns) Need to determine whether the « decision-maker » is an agent of another investor Ability of the investor to affect its returns through its power

  10. Factors to consider in evaluating existence of power Purpose and design of the investee • Relevance of voting rights held by shareholders in directing relevant activities • If power is not exercised through voting rights, identification of the risks (upside or downside) related to the entity and how these risks are transferred to investors Relevant activities and how decisions are made with respect to these activities • Activities that significantly affect the returns • Establishing operating and capital decisions, budgets, appointment and remuneration of key management personnel • Including decisions that arise only in response to specific circumstances Current ability to direct the relevant activities • Consider all substantive rights, giving practical ability to direct • Protective vs. participating rights • Direct and indirect rights (financing, guarantees, operational ties) ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  11. De facto control IFRS 10 IAS 27/SIC 12 • Not specifically addressed • Diversity in practice • Specifically addressed • Examples of situations where an investor may have power with less than majority of voting rights • Contractual arrangements between the investor and other vote holders • Rights arising from other contractual arrangements, such as operational or financial agreements that may provide significant substantive rights • Relative size of the investor’s % of vote and dispersion of the voting rights • Assess past attendance at shareholders’ meeting • Potential voting rights of the investor and/or other investors • See next slide • Combination of others ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  12. Potential voting rights Currently exercisable or not IFRS 10 IAS 27/SIC 12 • Include in analysis only if currently exerciseable • Include in analysis when they are  substantive • When are potential voting rights substantive? • Must represent substantive rights, considering exercise price, date, procedures • Purpose and design of the instruments • Combination of potential voting rights and other rights (voting or contractual) • Ability to exercise the potential voting rights when decisions about the relevant activities are made ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  13. Extent of exposure to risks and rewards Exposure (rights) to variable returns IFRS 10 IAS 27/SIC 12 • Control of an SPE generally requires exposure to the majority of risks and rewards related to the SPE • Control can exist only if the investor is exposed to variable returns • But no specified threshold is required in order for control to exist ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  14. Ability of the investor to affect its returns through its power Agent – principal relationship IFRS 10 IAS 27/SIC 12 • Not addressed • An investor can exercise power on behalf of another investor • The agent does not control • The principal must treat the delegated rights as its own • When is the decision-maker an agent? • Scope of the authority over relevant activities • Degree of independence in the decision-making process • Substantive rights held by other parties • Kick-out right without cause • Remuneration of the decision-maker • Indexation based on returns • Commensurate to service rendered and market conditions • Exposure to variability of returns from other interests • The greater the magnitude, the more likely the decision-maker is a principal ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  15. Transition Retrospective application Consolidation of an entity not previously consolidated • Retrospective application of IFRS 3 from the date of control • If impracticable, apply IFRS 3 at the earliest possible date • Impact on transition recognised in equity De-consolidation of a previously consolidated entity • Retrospective application from the date of loss of control • If impracticable, application at the earliest possible date • Application of IAS 27 (2004) or IAS 27 (2008) based on the date at which control is lost ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  16. Bottom line • No change to the fundamental principles but much more detailed application guidance • Extensive use of judgment required, numerous indicators and factors to consider • Need to reconsider the assessment performed under IAS 27/SIC 12, in particular when the following factors are present  • Potential voting rights • Special purpose entities • De facto control • Different parties have rights over different activities • Related parties • Increased likelihood that reassessment will lead to change in accounting treatment (consolidation vs. significant influence) even though there is no change in voting rights held => resulting in re-evaluation to fair value in P&L for previously held interest ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  17. IFRS 11 Joint arrangements

  18. Background Objectives • Establish a principle-based approach to the accounting for joint arrangements • Under IAS 31, the legal structure is key • Improve the quality of financial reporting by eliminating the choice between proportionate consolidation and equity method • Thereby converging with US GAAP ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  19. Overview of changes • Two categories distinguished based on contractual rights and obligations of parties • No accounting choice available • Definition of “joint control” is largely the same as it was in IAS 31 Joint ventures (IAS 31) Joint arrangements (IFRS 11) • Jointly controlled operations • Recognise own assets/liabilities and income/expenses • Joint operations • Rights/obligations to assets/liabilities • With or without separate vehicle • Recognise assets, liabilities, income, expenses • Jointly controlled assets • Recognise own assets/liabilities and income/expenses • Joint venture • Rights on net assets • Separate vehicle • Equity method • Jointly controlled entities • Choice between proportionate consolidation (recommended) and equity method ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  20. How to determine the type of joint arrangement? Is the arrangement conducted through a separate vehicle? Joint operation No Yes Legal form of separate vehicle Does legal form give parties rights/obligations to assets/obligations? Yes No Terms of contractual arrangement Do terms of arrangement give parties rights/obligations to assets/obligations? Yes No Other facts and circumstances Is the design of the arrangement such that parties in effect have rights/obligations to assets/obligations? Yes No Joint venture ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  21. How to account for joint arrangements? Joint operations Joint operators Own assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, including share of those held jointly Others with rights/obligations to assets/liabilities Parties without right/obligation to assets/liabilities Other IFRSs Joint ventures Joint venturers Equity method (IAS 28) Participants with significant influence Participants without significant influence IAS 39 (or IFRS 9) ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  22. Transition Before After As of beginning of first comparative period Jointly controlled entity Equity method Joint operation Derecognise the equity method investment Recognise assets (incl. goodwill) and liabilities Net assets recognised > equity method investment  reduce goodwill (if any) with any excess against retained earnings Net assets recognised < equity method investment difference against retained earning Jointly controlled entity Proportionate consolidation method Joint venture Derecognise assets (incl. goodwill, if any) and liabilities Recognise equity method investment Perform impairment loss test on opening balance of investment and impairment loss, if any, recognised as adjustment of retained earnings ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  23. IFRS 11 Joint arrangements – key points • Proportional consolidation no longer permitted for joint ventures • Jointly controlled entity may now be a jointly controlled operation

  24. IFRS 12Disclosure of interests in other entities

  25. Background Subsidiaries Joint arrangements Pulls together disclosure related to • Associates Unconsolidated structured entities Objective Establish the information necessary to evaluate • Nature of, and risks associated with, interests in other entities • Effects of those interests on the financial position, financial performance and cash flows ©2011 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential

  26. Extensive information to be provided on …. • Significant judgments and assumptions, including • How the entity determined that it controls (or does not control) another entity • Subsidiaries, including • NCI (distinct information for material non-controlling interests) • name and principal place of business • proportion held by NCI • NCI share of profit • NCI closing interest • summarised financial information about subsidiary • Ability to transfer cash to or from other entities in the group • Risks associated with consolidated structured entities (including current intentions to provide financial support) ©2011 Deloitte LLP.

  30. IFRS 13 Fair value measurement

  31. Final standard issued May 2011 Aims to replace all FV measurement guidance in IFRS Global crisis – importance of consistency between IFRS and US GAAP Same objective and very similar to FAS 157 in US GAAP Scope: very broad (both financial & non-financial assets) Transactions within IFRS 2 and IAS 17 scoped out Timing: Applies for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013 (prospectively) No need to restate comparatives Defines fair value, provides guidance on how to measure fair value and requires disclosure about fair value, it doesn’t change what is measured or disclosed at fair value IFRS 13 - Fair value measurement 33

  32. “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” Market based measurement – not entity specific Definition of fair value Not between related parties, or forced, e.g. involuntary liquidation, fire sale etc Not settlement amounts, i.e. original liability remains outstanding Exit price based model - may be hypothetical 34

  33. Fair value measurement – framework The price in the principal market for the asset or liability. In the absence of this – the most advantageous market Market participant is not a related party, must be knowledgeable, able and willing to transact Fair value is the number within bid-ask spread that is most appropriate – as a practical expedient may use mid-prices Assets specifically: Assumes highest and best use – even if entity’s use differs Whether used in combination with other assets Liabilities specifically: Where no observable market for a liability – assume it is equal to the fair value in the hands of the counterparty Include own credit risk • Valuation technique: • Market approach • Income approach • Cost approach (i.e. current replacement cost) 35

  34. Same disclosures as IFRS 7. Use of 3-level hierarchy. Scope is much broader than IFRS 7 – applies for all assets and liabilities measured, at fair value (e.g. investment property). Extent of disclosure depends on whether fair valued on a recurring or non-recurring basis Disclosures include: analysis of fair value between levels 1, 2 and 3 significant transfers between levels 1 and 2 (recurring only) Valuation techniques and inputs used for fair value measurement level 3 reconciliation from opening to closing balances (recurring only) total gains or losses relating to assets/liabilities held at reporting date Quantitative sensitivity analysis for level 3 items (recurring only) Description of valuation process for assets, where current use is not highest and best, analysis between value for current use and incremental value for highest and best use, and reason for current use Disclosures 36

  35. Will not change the extent to which transactions are measured at fair value Makes measurement objective explicit – exit price Different guidance re. use of bid and ask prices Explicit about market in which transactions take place Extensive disclosures Financial and non-financial Required even if fair value disclosed not reflected in balance sheet Fair values determined in business combination/ initial recognition not in scope Impact of IFRS 13 37

  36. Exposure draft revenue

  37. Background Objectives • Convergence IFRS – US GAAP • Provide a single, principle-based revenue recognition standard for use across various industries and capital markets December 2008 June 2010 November 2011 ??? October 2010 DP ED Second ED Effective date Comment period ends Core principle • To depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity receives or expects to receive

  38. Application of the core principle Step 1: Identify contract(s) with customer Step 2: Identify separate performance obligations in contract(s) Step 3: Determine transaction price Step 4: Allocate transaction price to separate performance obligation Step 5: Recognise revenue when entity satisfies each performance obligation

  39. Exposure draft leases – an update

  40. Background Objectives • Convergence IFRS – US GAAP • Eliminate the subjective distinction between operating and capital leases  All lease contracts on balance sheet March 2009 August 2010 December 2010 Q1 2012 ??? DP ED Comment period ended Second ED Effective date

  41. General principles - leases • The fulfillment of a contract depends on providing a specified asset or assets • The contract conveys the right to control the use of the specified asset for an agreed period of time. Core principles All lease contracts within definition recorded on balance sheet. Main effect The exposure draft defines a lease as “a contract in which the right to use a specified asset or assets is conveyed, for a period of time, in exchange for consideration”. ©2011 Deloitte LLP.

  43. Questions

  44. Example – IFRS 10 Agent A manages vessels on behalf of the principals under a pool management agreement as follows: • Agent A markets the vessels and negotiates on time charters, voyages and contracts of affreightment. • Agent A is responsible for commercial operation of the vessels including bunkering and appointing sub-agents. • Each principal shall pay to the agent (1) a flat fee of $300 per day per vessels and (2) 1.25% of gross freight, demurrage, misc revenue and/or charter hire • A pool committee (comprised one representative of each principal) meets twice a year to review performance of the pool. The agent attends these meetings but has no voting power • The pool will monitor and supervise the Agent’s services as well as review financial accounts and budgets • Each vessel is registered as a company. Question: Should agent A consolidate the results of the each vessel?

  45. Examples – IFRS 11 Example 1 • Two companies A and B form a 50/50 ‘joint venture through a new legal entity Company C. C leases containers of various shapes/sizes to shipping companies. • Each of Company A and B contributed equal number of containers into the joint venture and after 5 years (useful life of 20 years) these containers are returned to either company A or B • Company C in addition buys its own containers from revenue generated from operations. These containers belong to Company C • Rights (e.g. profits) and obligations(e.g. taxes, costs) shall be shared in proportion to shareholding • A and B have 5 directors each on board, unanimous consent required Question: Joint venture or Joint operation? Example 2 • Company D and E contributes equal amount of money to buy a vessel from a shipyard • On completion Company E will provide dive-support computer equipment to enable diving support vessel capabilities. • Company E will then bare-boat charter the vessel on a 10 year contract followed by 3 year rolling renewal contracts for a total period of 21 years. • At the end of its useful life the vessel will be sold and the proceeds proportionally distributed to Companies D and E. • Rights (e.g. profits) and obligations(e.g. taxes, costs) shall be shared in proportion to shareholding Question: Joint venture or joint operation?
