DIRECTORS

JOHN CHOW B.Sc

John is an entrepreneur who has overcome enormous odds to become successful. It has been a testament to his hard work that he has moved from family owned Chinese takeaway bar owner to owner of $200m commercial property and business portfolio.

John’s transition from small business owner to becoming a corporate entity and rich-lister has taken effort, a clear understanding of where he wants to go and the fearlessness to move the goalposts in his favour.

Recently John has agreed with Pullman to operate the Rotorua Hotel owned by the Chows that will be opened late 2018 and is also keeping busy with Stonewood Homes and the Chows finance company, Inno Capital.

MICHAEL CHOW

One of Michael’s key strengths is Operations Management. Michael is the younger of the two Chow brothers who as an entrepreneur has overcome enormous odds to become successful.

His hard work has paid off - he has moved from family owned Chinese takeaway bar owner to owner of $200m commercial property and business portfolio.

Michael’s focus is on the Chow’s Wellington operations including CMC Hotel refurbishment, Exodus Gym, Capital Markets and Urban Hub that together with director roles with Inno Capital and Stonewood Homes keeps Michael busy.

None of the significant standards would have a material impact on the reported financial performance of the Group.

1.4 New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted

NZ IFRS 16 'Leases' (effective for the period beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

Management has initiated a plan to assess the broader issues of adopting NZIFRS 15. This plan has yet to be completed and as such the impact of adopting NZIFRS 15 has yet to be quantified. Management expect to complete this plan in the forthcoming months.

NZ IFRS 16: Leases replaces the current guidance in NZ IAS 17 Leases. The existing lease accounting rules require lessees and lessors to classify their leases as either finance or operating leases. A lessee is not required to recognise lease assets or liabilities for operating leases.

Under NZ IFRS 16, there are some minor changes to the accounting treatment for lessors, and significantly more disclosure would be required. The Group currently does not have any leases that will be affected by this standard but intends to adopt NZ IFRS 16 effective from 1 April 2019 for any relevant leases.

The following new standards, amendments and interpretations are issued but not yet effective for the Group’s accounting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2016. The Group has not early adopted them.

NZ IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’, addresses the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. NZ IFRS 9 was issued in November 2009 and October 2010. It replaces the parts of NZ IAS 39 that relate to the classification and measurement of financial instruments. NZ IFRS 9 requires financial assets to be classified into two measurement categories: those measured as at fair value and those measured at amortised cost. The determination is made at initial recognition. The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing its financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the instrument. For financial liabilities, the standard retains most of the NZ IAS 39 requirements. The main change is that, in cases where the fair value option is taken for financial liabilities, the part of a fair value change due to an entity’s own credit risk is recorded in other comprehensive income rather than the income statement, unless this creates an accounting mismatch.

NZ IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ provides a five-step model to be applied to the recognition of revenue arising from contracts with customers: • identify the contract with the customer; • identify the performance obligations in the contract; • determine the transaction price; • allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and • recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. NZ IFRS 15 also introduces new disclosures about revenue.

NZ IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ (effective for the period beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

NZ IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ (effective for the period beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

Management has initiated a plan to assess the broader issues of adopting NZIFRS 9. This plan has yet to be completed and as such the impact of adopting NZIFRS 9 has yet to be quantified. Management expect to complete this plan in the forthcoming months.

NZ IFRS 16 will require a lessee to recognise a lease liability reflecting future lease payments and a “right-of-use” for most lease contracts.

1.5 Basis of consolidation

1.6 Cash and cash equivalents

1.7 Employee benefits

1.8 Investment Property

Investment property is held to earn rental income and for capital appreciation. Investment property is measured at cost on initial recognition. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition and construction of the asset. Work in progress on the investment property is carried at fair value. Work in progress relates to the cost of constructing a building on the investment properties to be used to earn rental income on provision of temporary accommodation.

Subsequent to the initial recognition and once the asset is ready for use, the investment property is measured at fair value with any change therein recognised in profit or loss.

Fair value is determined annually by independent registered valuers with sufficient experience with respect to both the location and the nature of investment property. In deriving a fair value all assumptions are based, where possible, on market based evidence and transactions for properties with similar locations, construction detail and accomodation profile. The adopted market value is based on the Capitalisation approach.

The Group financial statements consolidate the financial statements of the Parent and all entities over which the Parent is deemed to have controlling relationship (defined as "subsidiaries"). An entity is defined as a subsidiary when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its relationship with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

When the Group has less than a majority of the voting power or similar rights of another entity, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over the other entity.

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls another entity if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes in one or more of the three elements of control. The financial statements of the subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, and cash in banks net of outstanding bank overdrafts.

Provision is made for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, and sick leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably.

Provisions made in respect of employee benefits expected to be wholly settled within twelve months, are measured at their nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.

The consolidation of the Parent and the subsidiary involves adding together like terms of assets, liabilities, income and expenses on a line-by-line basis. All significant intra-group balances are eliminated on consolidation of Group financial position, performance and cash flows.

The subsidiary has a 31 March balance date and consistent accounting policies are applied.

1.9 Financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets

Loans and other receivables

1.10 Financial instruments issued by the Group

Debt and equity instruments

Other financial liabilities

Debt and equity instruments are classified as either liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. The value of ordinary shares is determined at the time the share is issued and is included in equity net of issue costs.

Investment properties are derecognised when they have been disposed of. On the derecognition of an investment property, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.

When the use of investment property changes such that it is reclassified as property, plant and equipment, its fair value at the date of reclassification becomes its cost for subsequent accounting periods.

Certain investments held by the Group are classified as being available-for-sale and are stated at fair value. Fair value is determined in the manner described in note 9.

Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are recognised directly in the available-for-sale revaluation reserve with the exception of impairment losses, foreign exchange gains and losses on monetary assets, which are recognised directly in profit or loss. Where the investment is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in the available-for-sale revaluation reserve is reclassified to profit or loss for the period.

Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less impairment. The average credit period for trade receivables is 30 days. Interest is not charged on overdue amounts.

Other financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets ‘at fair value through profit or loss’, ‘held-to-maturity investments’, ‘available-for-sale’ financial assets, and ‘receivables’. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.

Investments are recognised on trade date where the purchase of an investment is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at fair value, plus transaction costs except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value.

Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

1.11 Equity

Transaction costs on the issue of equity instruments

1.12 Goods and Services Tax (“GST”)

1.13 Income tax

Deferred tax

1.14 Payables and provisions

Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the proceeds of the equity instruments to which the costs relate. Transactions costs are the costs that are incurred directly in connection with the issue of those equity instruments and which would not have been incurred had those instruments not been issued.

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except for receivables and payables, which are recognised inclusive of GST.

Current tax is calculated with reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).

Deferred tax is accounted for using the comprehensive liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base of these items.

Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in profit or loss, except when it relates to items credited or debited directly to other comprehensive income or equity, in which case the deferred tax or current tax is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income, or where it arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, in which case it is taken into account in the determination of goodwill. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences.

Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost. They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are normally paid within 30 days of recognition.

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.

1.15 Revenue recognition

The following specific recognition criteria must be met before revenue is recognised:

Rental and accommodation income

Interest incomeInterest income is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest method.

Dividend incomeDividend income is recognised on the date that the Group's rights to receive payments are established.

1.16 Borrowings

1.17 Impairment of assets

Rental and accommodation income arising, from rental premises and provision of temporary accommodation, is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

At each reporting date the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such impairment exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to establish the impairment loss, (if any).

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of loan and trade receivables where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account.

When a trade receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss.

With the exception of available-for-sale equity instruments, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.

Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance date. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been impacted. For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the Group and revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of consideration received, excluding GST.

Borrowings are recorded initially at fair value, net of transaction costs and thereafter using the effective interest rate method. Interest costs attributable to the borrowings are accrued on a time basis using the effective interest rate method and are recorded in profit or loss.

Classification of Property

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying value is reduced to the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Operating segments are identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the Chief operating decision makers in order to allocate resources to the segment and assess its performance.

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Group by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

In the application of NZ IFRS, the Board and management are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements. Actual results may differ from the estimates, judgements and assumptions made by the Board and management.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

Judgements made by management in the application of NZ IFRS that have significant effects on the financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustments in the next year are disclosed, where applicable, in the relevant notes to the financial statements.

In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements is disclosed in the relevant notes as follows:• Investment properties (note 10)• Deferred tax (note 5)

The Directors have applied their judgement in assessing the classification of property owned by the Group. The Directors consider that all property owned by the Group should be classified as an investment property as ancillary services provided to occupants of these properties are insignificant and the properties are not owner occupied.

1.20 Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty (continued)

Revaluation of investment properties

Impairment

Deferred Tax

The Group has recognised its investment properties at fair value as at 31 March 2017. Investment properties have been valued by reference to market-based evidence, using a net market capitalisation rate which reflects both the quantum value of the property, its modern fitout and its performance since opening in late 2015. The Group has used an external independent valuer, having appropriate recognised professional qualifications and experience to assess the fair value of the investment properties as at 31 March 2017.

The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the assets can be utilised.

An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's or cash-generating unit's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. To determine the recoverable amount, management estimates expected future cash flows from each asset or cash-generating unit and determines a suitable interest rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. In the process of measuring expected future cash flows management makes assumptions about future operating results. These assumptions relate to future events and circumstances.

Management have reviewed the carrying values of the investment properties, receivables and an impairment loss has been recognised against trade and other receivables (note 8).

Trade debtors and other receivables are non-interest bearing and receipt is normally on 30 days terms. The directors consider that there is no material difference between the carrying value and fair value of trade debtors and other receivables.

The Group's management considers that all financial assets that are not impaired or past due for each of the reporting dates under review are of good credit quality.

The Group establishes an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables. The main component of this allowance is a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures.

ImpairmentThe Chow Group completes an assessment of the carrying value of investments at least annually and considers objective evidence for impairment on each investment, taking into account observable data on the investment, the status or context of markets, its own view of fair value, and its long term investment intentions. The Chow Group notes the following matters which are specifically considered in terms of objective evidence of impairment of its investments, and whether there is a significant or prolonged decline from cost, which should be recorded as an impairment, and taken to profit and loss: any known loss events that have occurred since the initial recognition date of the investments, including its investment performance, its long term investment horizon, specific initiatives which reflect the strategic or influential nature of its existing investment position and internal valuations; and the state of markets. The assessment also requires judgements about the expected future performance and cash flows of the investment.

The Group holds 3,463,410 ordinary shares in USG Tech Solutions Limited ("USG"). USG is listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE Scrip Code: 532402). The equity securities are denominated in Indian Rupees. The Group intends to realise its investment in USG.

Measurement of fair value - Investment property

· Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Rental/Accommodation income derived from investment properties

The fair value of investment properties have been recognised in the financial statements as at 31 March 2017 with reference to valuations completed by an independent valuer. The valuation has been completed in accordance with the International Valuation Standards, in particular IVS 300 - Valuations for Financial Reporting and NZIFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement.

In determining fair value, a single year net operating income applicable to each investment property has been divided by the net market capitalisation rate. The capitalisation rate reflects both the quantum value of the property, its modern fitout and its performance since opening in 2015.

The table below analyses the non-financial assets carried at fair value, by a valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:

· Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Investment property comprises property in Auckland, which is held to earn rents and for capital appreciation purposes.

As disclosed in note 13 bank loans and borrowings are secured over the investment property and therefore the Group is restricted in its ability to realise its investment property. Commitments to purchase, construct or develop investment property or for repairs, maintenance and enhancements are disclosed at note 23 to the financial statements.

Additions : Completed developments transferred from Work in progress

· Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Fair value is determined annually by independent registered valuers with sufficient experience with respect to both the location and the nature of investment property. In deriving a fair value all assumptions are based, where possible, on market based evidence and transactions for properties with similar locations, construction detail and accomodation profile. The adopted market value was computed using the Capitalisation approaches.

In the absence of current prices in an active market, the valuations are prepared based on a capitalisation of net income approach. A market yield is applied to the estimated net income to arrive at the gross property valuation.

Description

Market capitalisation rate

Market rental

The capitalisation rate is applied to the market income to assess an investment property’s value. The capitalisation rate is derived from detailed analysis of factors such as comparable sales evidence and leasing transactions in the open market taking into account location, Room and Occupancy rates, market rentals, size and quality of the investment property.

The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustment to it, in light of changes in economic and trading conditions within its markets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may increase or decrease their borrowings or return capital to shareholders.

Consistent with others in the industry, the Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings (including current and non-current borrowings including related party payables) less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as equity as shown in the Statement of Financial Position plus net debt.

The Group's strategy is to operate the gearing ratio within 40% to 65%. The current gearing ratio of 46% is in line with the Group's strategy. The 2016 gearing ratio of 51% was line with the Group's strategy.

The carrying amounts presented in the statement of financial position relate to the following categories of financial assets and liabilities.

Credit risk is the risk that a third party will default on its obligation to the Group, causing the Group to incur a loss.

The Group has no significant concentration of risk in relation to cash and cash equivalents, trade debtors and other financial assets. The directors review the recoverability of related party receivables on a regular basis and are satisfied that all amounts are recoverable.

The Group continuously monitors defaults of customers and other counterparties, identified either individually or collectively by the Group, and incorporates this information into its credit risk controls.

Further details in relation to the credit quality of financial assets is provided in Note 8.

Liquidity risk represents the Group's ability to meet is contractual obligations as they fall due. The Group manages liquidity risk by managing cash flows and ensuring that adequate credit lines are in place to cover any potential short falls.

The Group manages its liquidity needs by monitoring scheduled debt servicing payments for long-term financial liabilities as well as forecast cash inflows and outflows due in day-to-day business. The data used for analysing these cash flows is consistent with that used in the contractual maturity analysis below. Net cash requirements are compared to available borrowing facilities in order to determine headroom or any shortfalls. This analysis shows that available borrowing facilities are expected to be sufficient over the foreseable future.

The Group considers expected cash flows from financial assets in assessing and managing liquidity risk, in particular its cash resources, trade receivables and the provision of funding from related parties and bank loan facilities.

The Group's financial liabilities have contractual maturities (including interest payments where applicable) as summarised below:
