Heavy Engineering Industries and Shipbuilding Company K.S.C. (Public) and its subsidiaries
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - 31 DECEMBER 2014
1. Incorporation and activities
Heavy Engineering Industries and Shipbuilding Company K.S.C (Public) (the Parent Company) is a shareholding company registered in Kuwait and was incorporated in the year 1974. The main activities of the Parent Company are shipbuilding, ship repair and other related marine activities and industrial and engineering contracting with specialisation in oil and energy sectors.
The Parent Company’s registered office is P. O. Box 21998, Safat 13080, Kuwait
The consolidated financial statements include the Parent Company’s financial statements and the financial statements of the following two subsidiaries together referred to as “the Group”.
Company Name CountryPercentage of holding2014 2013
Gulf Dredging and General Contracting Company K.S.C (Closed) Kuwait 99.92 % 99.92 %
Kuwait International Company for Environmental Service and Industrial Inspection W.L.L Kuwait 80 % 80 %

The subsidiaries are mainly engaged in dredging and related marine and civil construction activities and in providing services related to industrial inspection of materials, quality control and environment.
The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014 were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors (the Board) on 09 March 2015 and are subject to the approval of shareholders at the annual general meeting.
2.Basisofpreparationandsignificantaccountingpolicies
2.1 Basis of preparation
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis of measurement as modified by the revaluation of financial assets classified as “available for sale”. These consolidated financial statements have been presented in Kuwaiti Dinar.
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect amounts reported in these consolidated financial statements, as actual results could differ from those estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to these consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 4.
(All Amounts in Kuwaiti Dinars unless otherwise stated)
ANNUAL REPORT 2014

2.2Significantaccountingpolicies
The accounting policies used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the previous year, except for the following new and amended IASB Standards adopted during the year:
Investment Entities (Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27)
These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014 and provide an exception to the consolidation requirement for entities that meet the definition of an investment entity under IFRS 10. The exception to consolidation requires investment entities to account for subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss. The adoption of this Standard has not resulted in any impact on the financial position or performance of the Group, since none of the entities in the Group qualify to be an investment entity under IFRS 10.
IAS 32: Financial Instruments: Presentation - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial liabilities (Amendment)
The amendments clarify the meaning of “currently has a legally enforceable right to set-off” and also clarify the application of the IAS 32 offsetting criteria to settlement systems (such as central clearing house systems) which apply gross settlement mechanisms that are not simultaneous. The adoption of this Standard has not resulted in any impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.
IAS 36: Impairment of Assets - Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets (Amendment)
These amendments remove the unintended consequences of IFRS 13 on the disclosures required under IAS 36. In addition, these amendments require disclosure of the recoverable amounts for the assets or CGUs for which impairment loss has been recognised or reversed during the period. The adoption of this Standard has not resulted in any material additional disclosures. The Group has adopted these amendments with effect from 1 January 2014.
IFRIC 21: Levies
IFRIC 21 clarifies that an entity recognises a liability for a levy when the activity that triggers payment, as identified by the relevant legislation, occurs. For a levy that is triggered upon reaching a minimum threshold, the interpretation clarifies that no liability should be anticipated before the specified minimum threshold is reached. Retrospective application is required for IFRIC 21. This interpretation has no impact on the Group as it has applied the recognition principles under IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets consistent with the requirements of IFRIC 21 in prior years.
Other amendments to IFRSs which are effective for annual accounting period starting from 1 January 2014 did not have any material impact on the accounting policies, financial position or performance of the Group.

Standards issued but not yet effective
The following IASB Standards have been issued/amended but are not yet mandatory, and have not been adopted by the Group:
IFRS 9: Financial Instruments
The IASB issued IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments in its final form in July 2014 and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 with a permission to early adopt. IFRS 9 sets out the requirements for recognizing and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some contracts to buy or sell non- financial assets. This Standard replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The adoption of this Standard will have an effect on the classification and measurement of Group’s financial assets but is not expected to have a significant impact on the classification and measurement of financial liabilities. The impact of this Standard on the initial application in 2018 is not reasonable estimable at the present time.
IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with customers
IFRS 15 was issued by IASB on 28 May 2014 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017. IFRS 15 supersedes IAS 11 – Construction Contracts and IAS 18 – Revenue along with related IFRIC 13, IFRIC 18 and SIC 31 from the effective date. This new Standard would remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in previous revenue recognition requirements, provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues and improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets. The Group is in the process of evaluating the effect of IFRS 15 on the Group and do not expect any significant impact on adoption of this Standard.
Amendments to IAS 19 Defined Benefit Plans: Employee Contributions
IAS 19 requires an entity to consider contributions from employees or third parties when accounting for defined benefit plans. Where the contributions are linked to service, they should be attributed to periods of service as a negative benefit. These amendments clarify that, if the amount of the contributions is independent of the number of years of service, an entity is permitted to recognise such contributions as a reduction in the service cost in the period in which the service is rendered, instead of allocating the contributions to the periods of service. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2014. It is not expected that this amendment would be relevant to the Group, since none of the entities within the Group has defined benefit plans with contributions from employees or third parties.
Adoption of other new or amended Standards are not expected to have material effect on the consolidated financial position or financial performance of the Group. Additional disclosures will be made in the consolidated financial statements when these Standards become effective.

2.3 Consolidation
The Group consolidates the financial statements of the Company and subsidiaries (i.e. investees that it controls) and investees controlled by its subsidiaries.
The Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
• Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);
• Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
• The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.
When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
• The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee;
• Rights arising from other contractual arrangements;
• Voting rights and potential voting rights;
The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements on a line-by-line basis, from the date on which control is transferred to the Group until the date that control ceases.
Non-controlling interest in an acquiree is stated at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share in the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date and the non-controlling interest’s share of changes in the equity since the date of the combination. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interest in the subsidiary and any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests is adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to the Company’s shareholders. Non-controlling interest is presented separately in the consolidated statements of financial position and profit or loss. The non-controlling interests are classified as a financial liability to the extent there is an obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset to settle the non-controlling interest.
Consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances based on latest audited financial statements of subsidiaries. Intra group balances, transactions, income, expenses and dividends are eliminated in full. Profits and losses resulting from intra group transactions that are recognized in assets are eliminated in full.
When the Company loses control of a subsidiary, it derecognizes the assets (including any goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary at their carrying amounts at the date when control is lost as well as related non-controlling interests. Any investment retained is recognized at fair value at the date when control is lost. Any resulting difference along with amounts previously directly recognized in equity is transferred to the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

2.4 Financial Instruments
Classification
The Group classifies its financial instruments upon initial recognition based on the purpose of acquiring these financial instruments. The Group classifies its financial assets as “loans and receivables” or “available for sale” and its financial liabilities as “other than at fair value through profit or loss”.
Loans and receivables
These are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. The Group’s loans and receivables comprises of contracts in progress, trade and other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents.
Available for sale
These are non-derivative financial assets not included in any of the above classifications and principally acquired to be held for an indefinite period of time, which may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity prices.
Recognition and de-recognition
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognized when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset is derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; or when the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership; or when it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all risks and rewards of ownership and it no longer has control over the asset or portion of the asset. If the Group has retained control, it shall continue to recognize the financial asset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the financial asset. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged/ cancelled or has expired.
All regular way purchase and sale of financial assets are recognized on the trade date - the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the financial asset.
Offsetting
Financial assets and financial liabilities are only offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and the Group intends to settle on a net basis.
Measurement
All financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue are included as part of initial cost.
Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortized cost. The amortized cost is the amount at which the financial instrument is initially recognized minus principal repayments, plus or minus the amortization of premiums or discounts using effective interest rate, less any allowance for impairment.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014

Available for sale financial assets are subsequently measured and carried at fair value and any resultant gains or losses arising from changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in investment fair valuation reserve in equity. When the available for sale financial asset is disposed of or impaired, the related accumulated fair value changes earlier reported in equity are transferred to the consolidated statement of income as gains or losses. The translation gains or losses on non-monetary items classified as available for sale financial assets are included in equity.
Financial liabilities “other than at fair value through profit or loss” are subsequently measured and carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate.
Financial guarantees are subsequently measured at the higher of the amount initially recognized less any cumulative amortization and the best estimate of the present value of amount required to settle any financial obligation arising as a result of the guarantee.
Fair values
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. The fair value of financial instruments carried at amortised cost is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rates for similar financial instruments.
Impairmentoffinancialasset
A financial asset is impaired if its carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. An assessment is made at each consolidated statement of financial position date to determine whether there is objective evidence that a specific financial asset or a group of similar assets may be impaired. If such evidence exists, the asset is written down to its recoverable amount.
The amount of impairment loss is measured for financial assets carried at amortised cost as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, including amounts recoverable from guarantees and collateral, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. If the financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract. If in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through the consolidated statement of income.
In the case of financial assets classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of assets below its cost is considered in determining whether the financial assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available for sale financial assets, the cumulative loss measured is the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in the consolidated statement of income. If in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss, the impairment loss shall be reversed, with the amount of the reversal recognised in the consolidated statement of income. Impairment losses recognised on available for sale equity investments are, however, not reversed through the consolidated statement of income.

2.5 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any.
Depreciation is provided on a straight line basis on all property, plant and equipment, other than land which is determined to have an indefinite life. The rates of depreciation are based upon the following estimated useful lives:
• Dock and lifts 24 to 46 years• Buildings 12 to 56 years• Machinery and equipment 8 to 31 years• Other assets 2 to 33 years
The asset’s residual values, useful lives and method of depreciation are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each statement of financial position date.
Expenditure incurred to replace a component of an item of property, plant and equipment that is accounted for separately is capitalised and the carrying amount of the component that is replaced is written off. All other expenditure are recognised in the consolidated statement of income as the expense is incurred.
Projects under construction are included in property, plant and equipment until they are completed and ready for their intended use. At that time, they are reclassified under similar assets and depreciation is calculated since then.
These assets are reviewed periodically for impairment. If there is an indication that the carrying value of an asset is greater than its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to its recoverable amount and the resultant impairment loss is taken to the consolidated statement of profit or loss.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amounts and are recognised in the consolidated statement of income.
2.6 Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costs are those expenses incurred in bringing each item to its present location and condition, determined on a weighted average cost basis. Net realizable value is the selling price less cost to sell.
2.7 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash on hand, demand and time deposits with banks whose original maturities do not exceed three months are classified as cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
2.8Postemploymentbenefits
The Group is liable under Kuwait Labour Law to make payments under defined benefit plans to employees at termination of employment. The defined benefit plan is un-funded and is based on the liability that would arise on involuntary termination of all employees at the consolidated statement of financial position date. This basis is considered to be a reliable approximation of the present value of the Group’s liability.

2.9 Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle that obligation. Provisions are reviewed at each consolidated statement of financial position date and adjusted to reflect the best current estimate of the obligation.
2.10 Foreign currencies
The functional currency of the Group is Kuwaiti Dinar. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are converted to Kuwait Dinar at the rate of exchange ruling at the consolidated statement of financial position date. All differences are taken to the consolidated statement of income.
2.11 Revenue recognition
Revenue from contracts involving the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract based on internal surveys of work performed. When the outcome of the contract cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent of expenses that are incurred are recoverable. Variation orders and claims are recognised upon acceptance by customers. When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately.Revenue from sales transactions are recorded when goods are delivered.
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
2.12 Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. Borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred, except to the extent that they are capitalised.
2.13 Segment reporting
A segment is a distinguishable component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs costs. The operating segments are used by the management of the Group to allocate resources and assess performance. Operating segments exhibiting similar economic characteristics, product and services, class of customers where appropriate are aggregated and reported as reportable segments.
2.14 Accounting for leases
Where the Group is the lessee
Operating lease
Leases of property and equipment under which, all the risks and benefits of ownership are effectively retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

3. Financial risk management
3.1 Financial risk factors
The Group’s use of financial instruments exposes it to a variety of financial risks such as credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. The Group continuously reviews its risk exposures and takes measures to limit it to acceptable levels. Risk management is carried out by the finance department of the Group under policies approved by the Board. The Board approves policies for overall risk management and for specific areas such as credit risk; market risk comprising of foreign currency risk and interest rate risk; and liquidity risk. The finance department identifies and evaluates financial risks in close co-operation with the Group’s operating units. The significant financial risks that the Group is exposed to are discussed below:
(A) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation causing the other party to incur financial loss. The financial assets of the Group exposed to credit risk are contracts in progress, trade and other receivables and cash equivalents.
The Group transacts business with customers with financial stability and high credit worthiness. The Group’s cash balances are placed with financial institutions with high credit rating.
The table below shows the gross exposure to credit risk on the consolidated statement of financial position date without taking into account collateral or other credit mitigants:
2014 2013 Contracts in Progress 26,215,283 21,250,943 Trade and other receivables 35,530,924 36,338,799 Balances with banks 3,297,583 1,643,191
65,043,790 59,232,933
(B) Market risk
(i) Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.
The Group is exposed to foreign currency risk arising from transacting business with certain customers in US Dollar and other foreign currencies.
The Group ensures that the net exposure is kept to acceptable levels and the management is monitoring the foreign currency exchange rates on a regular basis to identify any changes that may affect the Group’s operations.

Following is the receivables/(payables) in foreign currency as of the date of the consolidated financial statements:
2014 2013
US Dollar 375,793 (2,426,247)Others currencies 722,303 61,662
1,098,096 (2,364,585)
If as at 31 December 2014, Kuwaiti Dinars had weakened against the major currencies by 5% with all other variables held constant the net impact on the profit, as of 31 December 2014, is shown below:
2014 2013
US Dollar 18,790 (121,312)Others currencies 36,115 3,083
54,905 (118,229)
A 5% strengthening of the Kuwaiti Dinars against the above currencies would have had the equal but the opposite effect on profit for the year.
The impact on foreign currency risk on equity is not material.
(ii) Equity price risk
Equity price risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices caused by factors specific to the instrument or its issuer or factors affecting all instruments traded in the market.
The Group’s investments are primarily quoted on the Kuwait Stock Exchange. At 31 December 2014, if equity prices had increased by 5%, the equity of the Group would have been higher by KD 90,716 (2013: KD 116,391).
Alternatively, a 5% decrease in the equity prices would have had the equal but the opposite effect on the Group’s equity.
(iii) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group is exposed to interest rate risk arising from borrowings carrying variable interest rates as it exposes the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. The Group’s policy is to enter into derivative contracts to protect it from significant adverse impact from potential volatility in interest rates. However, at present the Group enjoys competitive interest rates from various banks in Kuwait.

If as on 31 December 2014, the interest rates had increased by 5% the net profit would have been lower by KD 1,167,934 (2013: KD 1,509,380). Alternatively, a 5% decrease in the interest rates would have had the equal but the opposite effect on the Group’s net profits.
(C) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group may not be able to meet its funding requirements. Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and making available funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities. To manage this risk, the Group periodically assesses the financial viability of its customers and ensures that adequate funding facilities are available from its lenders.
The table below analyses the Group’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the consolidated statement of financial position date to the contractual maturity date. The balances disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying amounts balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.

3.2 Capital risk management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the costs of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group monitors capital on the basis of gearing ratio. The ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debts calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as equity as shown in the consolidated statement of financial position plus net debt.
The gearing ratio as at 31 December 2014 and 2013 were as follows:
2014 2013
Total borrowings 28,651,113 33,330,102Less: cash and cash equivalents (3,380,555) (1,795,577)Net debt 25,270,558 31,534,525Total equity 36,390,430 34,008,065 Total capital 61,660,988 65,542,590 Gearing ratio 40.98% 48.11%
3.3Fairvalueoffinancialinstruments
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. Fair values are obtained from current bid prices, discounted cash flow models and other models as appropriate. At December 31, the fair values of financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts.
Determination of fair value and fair value hierarchy:
The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair values of financial instruments:
Level 1 : Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active market for the same instrument;
Level 2 : Quoted prices in active market for similar instruments or other valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are based on observable market data; and
Level 3 : Valuation techniques for which any significant input is not based on observable market data.

The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value as of 31 December.

The impact on the statement of financial position or the statement of changes in equity would be immaterial, if the relevant risk variables used to determine fair values for the unquoted securities were altered by 5%. During the year, there were no transfers between the levels.
4.Significantaccountingestimatesandjudgements
In the preparation of these consolidated financial statements, the Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Fair value of unquoted equity investments
Valuation techniques for unquoted equity investments in which estimates are used are representing in the expected cash flows discount rates, return trades, adjusted local market prices, credit risks, related cost and other valuation techniques used by market participants.
The Group calibrates the valuation techniques periodically and tests these for validity using either prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument or other available observable market data.

Impairment losses of accounts receivable
The Group reviews its receivables to assess impairment on a regular basis. In determining whether an impairment loss should be recorded in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the Group makes judgments as to whether there is any observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from the receivables. In particular, considerable judgment by management is required in the estimation of the amount and timing of future cash flows when determining the level of provisions required. Such estimates are necessarily based on assumptions about several factors involving varying degrees of judgment and uncertainty, and actual results may differ resulting in future changes to such provisions. The methodology and assumptions used for estimating both the amount and timing of future cash flows are reviewed regularly to reduce any differences between loss estimated and the actual loss.
Impairment of inventories
Inventories are held at the lower of cost and net realisable value. When inventories become old or obsolete, an estimate is made of their net realisable value. For individually significant amounts this estimation is performed on an individual basis. Amounts which are not individually significant, but which are old or obsolete, are assessed collectively and a provision applied according to the inventory type and the degree of ageing or obsolescence.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment
The Group reviews the property, plant and equipment to determine whether an impairment loss should be recognised. An estimate is set by the management in terms of amount and timing of expected cash flows as well as the discount rates used when calculating the value in use.
Revenue recognition
The Group uses the percentage of completion method in accounting for its fixed priced contracts. Use of percentage of completion method requires the Group to estimate the physical work performed to date as a proportion of the total work to be performed.

Judgements
Classification of investments
On acquisition of an investment, management has to decide whether it should be classified as “at fair value through profit or loss”, “loans and receivables”, “held to maturity” or as “available for sale”. In making that judgment the Group considers the primary purpose for which it is acquired and how it intends to manage and report its performance. Such judgment determines whether it is subsequently measured at cost or at fair value and if the changes in fair value of instruments are reported in the consolidated statement of income or directly in equity.
Impairment of available for sale financial assets
The Group follows the guidance of IAS 39 to determine when an available-for-sale financial asset is impaired. A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of equity instruments classified as available for sale is objective evidence of an impairment. Determining which is significant and which is prolonged requires judgement from management. In making this judgment, the Group evaluates, among other factors, the duration and extent to which the fair value of an investment is less than its cost; and the financial health of and near-term business outlook for the investee, including factors such as industry and sector performance, changes in technology and operational and financing cash flow.
Contingent liabilities
Contingent liabilities are potential liabilities that arise from past events whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity. Provisions for liabilities are recorded when a loss is considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. The determination of whether or not a provision should be recorded for any potential liabilities is based on management’s judgment.
