The group is in the process of making an assessment of what the impact of these developments is
expected to be in the period of initial application. So far it has concluded that the adoption of them is
unlikely to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements except for the following:
Amendments to HKAS 1, Presentation of financial statements (2020 and 2022 amendments) 300
The 2020 and 2022 amendments impact the classification of a liability as current or non-current, and are
to be applied retrospectively as a package.
The 2020 amendments primarily clarify the classification of a liability that can be settled in its own equity
instruments. If the terms of a liability could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by
the transfer of the entity's own equity instruments and that conversion option is accounted for as an
equity instrument, these terms do not affect the classification of the liability as current or non-current.
Otherwise, the transfer of equity instruments would constitute settlement of the liability and impact
classification.
The 2022 amendments specify that conditions with which an entity must comply after the reporting date
do not affect the classification of a liability as current or non-current. However, the entity is required to
disclose information about non-current liabilities subject to such conditions.
