Valuation of deferred tax assets

Please refer to the Note 18 in the consolidated financial statements.

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

The Group has recognised significant deferred tax assets in respect of tax losses.

The Group regularly considers possible options for utilization of deferred tax asset and assesses recoverability based on the most likely utilization option. The recovery of the deferred tax assets also depends on achieving sufficient taxable profits in the future.

The assessment of the recoverability of tax losses depends on the projected profitability of the Group, which is formed on the basis of planned sales volumes and prices for sold products and expected inflation rates and exchange rates.

There is inherent uncertainty involved in forecasting timing and quantum of future taxable profits, which support the extent to which tax assets are recognised. Therefore, this is the key judgmental area our audit is concentrated on.

Our audit procedures included the following:

We considered the Group's assessment of possible options for the utilization of deferred tax asset and its assessment of the likelihood of those options.

We tested the accuracy of the taxable profits forecast model used to estimate the recoverability of deferred tax assets.

We evaluated the appropriateness of management's key assumptions and estimates used by management to assess the likelihood of generating sufficient future taxable profits to support the recognition of deferred tax assets, taking into account external market indicators such as trends in prices for chemical fertilizers, inflation rates and exchange rates.

Using KPMG tax specialists, we considered the appropriateness of the application of relevant tax legislation by the Group, in relation to the utilization of tax losses, including analysis of the most likely option for their utilization.
