NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 April 2019

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  1. Statement of compliance
    These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with all applicable Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("HKFRSs"), which collective term includes all applicable individual Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, Hong Kong Accounting Standards ("HKASs") and Interpretations issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("HKICPA") and accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong. These consolidated financial statements also comply with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Listing Rules").
    The HKICPA has issued certain new and revised HKFRSs which are first effective or available for early adoption for the current accounting period of the Group. Information on any changes in accounting policies resulting from initial application of these developments to the extent that they are relevant to the Group for the current and prior accounting periods reflected in these consolidated financial statements are set out in Note 2.
  2. Basis of preparation of the consolidated financial statements
    Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the "functional currency"). These consolidated financial statements are presented in Hong Kong dollars ("HK$"), rounded to the nearest thousand (HK$'000) except otherwise indicated. Hong Kong dollar is the functional currency of the Company and of the most of the subsidiaries.
    Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
    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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these consolidated financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope of HKFRS 2, leasing transactions that are within the scope of HKAS 17, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in HKAS 2 or value in use in HKAS 36.
    In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
    • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
    • Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
    • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

  1. HKFRS 9 Financial Instruments
    In the current year, the Group has applied HKFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" and the related consequential amendments to other HKFRSs. HKFRS 9 introduces new requirements for (1) the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, (2) expected credit losses ("ECL") for financial assets and (3) general hedge accounting.
    The Group has applied HKFRS 9 in accordance with the transition provisions set out in HKFRS 9, i.e. applied the classification and measurement requirements (including impairment) retrospectively to instruments that have not been derecognised as at 1 May 2018 (date of initial application) and has not applied the requirements to instruments that have already been derecognised as at 1 May 2018. The difference between carrying amounts as at 30 April 2018 and the carrying amounts as at 1 May 2018 are recognised in the opening accumulated losses and other components of equity, without restating comparative information.
    Accordingly, certain comparative information may not be comparable as comparative information was prepared under HKAS 39 "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement".

Summary of effects arising from initial application of HKFRS 9

Note:

  1. Reclassification from AFS to financial assets at FVTPL
    The investment in club memberships of the Group with aggregated amount of approximately HK$1,650,000 as at 1 May 2018 were reclassified from AFS to financial assets at FVTPL. This is because even though the Group's business model is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, the cash flows of these investments do not meet the HKFRS 9 criteria as solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. A fair value gain of approximately HK$118,000 relating to club memberships previously carried at cost less impairment were adjusted to accumulated losses at 1 May 2018.
  2. Reclassification from AFS to financial assets at FVTOCI
    The investment in unlisted equity securities of the Group with aggregated amount of approximately HK$47,754,000 as at 1 May 2018 were reclassified from available-for-sale investments to financial assets at FVTOCI. These investments are not held for trading and not expected to be sold in the foreseeable future. The unlisted equity securities do not have a quoted market price in an active market and are measured at cost less impairment under HKAS 39. A fair value gain of approximately HK$787,000 were adjusted to financial assets at FVTOCI reserves at 1 May 2018.
    The measurement categories for all financial liabilities remain the same. The carrying amounts for all financial liabilities at 1 May 2018 have not been impacted by the initial application of HKFRS 9.

Impairment under ECL model

The Group applies the HKFRS 9 simplified approach to measure ECL which uses a lifetime ECL for all accounts receivable. Except for those which had been determined as credit impaired under HKAS 39, the remaining balances are grouped based on internal credit rating and/or past due analysis. The Group has therefore estimated the expected loss rates for the accounts receivable on the same basis.

Except for those which had been determined as credit impaired under HKAS 39, ECL for other financial assets at amortised cost, including deposits paid for acquisition of property, plant and equipment, loans and advances to money lending customers, deposit and other receivables and cash and bank balances, are assessed on 12-month ECL ("12m ECL") basis as there had been no significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition.
