Yanbu National Petrochemical Company (YANSAB) - A Saudi Joint Stock Company

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

For the year ended 31 December 2020

(All amounts in Saudi Riyals '000 unless otherwise stated)

1 COMPANY INFORMATION

Yanbu National Petrochemical Company (YANSAB) (the "Company") is a Saudi Joint Stock Company registered in Yanbu, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia under Commercial Registration number 4700009432 dated 14 Muharram 1427H (corresponding to 13 February 2006) in accordance with the Ministerial Resolution No. 49 dated 12 Muharram 1427H (corresponding to 11 February 2006) for the incorporation of the Company. The Company obtained its Industrial Licence number S/1367 on 18 Rajab 1426H (corresponding to 23 August 2005) and is engaged in the manufacturing of petrochemical products in accordance with the Company's by-laws and other Saudi Arabian applicable regulations. The Company commenced commercial operations on 1 March 2010. The registered office of the Company is located at Yanbu, P.O. Box 31396, Yanbu industrial city 41912.

The interim condensed financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020 have been approved by the Board of Directors on 8 Jumada II 1442H (corresponding to 21 January 2021).

2 BASIS OF PREPARATION

2.1 Statement of compliance

These interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" ("IAS 34") endorsed in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ("KSA").

These interim condensed financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in full set of annual financial statements and should therefore be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

2.2 Basis of measurement

These interim condensed financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention. For employee and other post- employment benefits, actuarial present value calculations are used.

2.3 Functional and presentation currency

These interim condensed financial statements are presented in Saudi Riyals (SR), which is the functional currency of the Company. All figures are rounded off to nearest thousands (SR '000) unless when otherwise indicated.

2.4 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company's interim condensed financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. The significant judgments made by management in applying the Company's accounting policies and the methods of computation and the key sources of estimation are the same as those that applied to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019. However, in the view of the current uncertainty due to COVID-19, any future change in the assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of the assets or liabilities affected in the future periods. As the situation is rapidly evolving with future uncertainties, management will continue to assess the impact based on prospective developments (see also note 16).

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (continued)

For the year ended 31 December 2020

(All amounts in Saudi Riyals '000 unless otherwise stated)

3 CHANGES TO THE COMPANY'S ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies and methods of calculation adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019, except for the adoption of new standards effective as of 1 January 2020. The Company has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

Several amendments and interpretations apply for the first time in 2020, but do not have an impact on the interim condensed financial statements of the Company. As required by IAS 34, the nature and effect of these changes are disclosed below.

3.1 Amendments to IFRS 3: Definition of a Business

The amendment to IFRS 3 clarifies that to be considered a business, an integrated set of activities and assets must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output. Furthermore, it clarified that a business can exist without including all of the inputs and processes needed to create outputs. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of the Company, but may impact future periods should the Company enter into any business combinations.

3.2 Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8: Definition of Material

The amendments provide a new definition of material that states "information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity." The amendments clarify that materiality will depend on the nature or magnitude of information, either individually or in combination with other information, in the context of the financial statements. A misstatement of information is material if it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions made by the primary users. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of, nor is there expected to be any future impact to the Company.

During 2020, the Company received assessment for the years 2016 to 2018 claiming additional zakat aggregating to SR 91 million due to certain additions to zakat base made by GAZT. The Company is currently reviewing the GAZT's assessmen t and plans to file an appeal against the total amount of assessment for these years. The management believes that the appeal outcome will be in the Company's favour. Moreover, an additional provision of SR 20 million has been made in these interim condensed financial statements.

Further, during the year, GAZT raised assessment with additional withholding tax liability on dividend paid to non -resident shareholders amounting to SR 10.1 million for the years 2015 to 2019, and the Company paid the amount during the year ended 31 December 2020.

The final assessment for the year 2019 has not yet been raised by the GAZT.

11 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

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 measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

  • In the principal market for the asset or liability; or
  • In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. A fair value measurement of a non- financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

All financial instruments for which fair value is recognised or disclosed are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole, as follows:

  • Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  • Level 2: valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.
  • Level 3: valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or liability falls into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest input level that is significant to the entire measurement.

The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred. There were no transfers among the levels during the year.

The management assessed that the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, trade and other receivables and trade payables approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

16 IMPACT OF COVID-19

The outbreak of novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") since early 2020 and its spread across mainland China and then globally caused disruptions to businesses and economic activities including KSA. The World Health Organisation qualified COVID- 19 as a pandemic, with governments issuing strict regulations and guidance for its populations and companies. It necessitated the Company's management to re-assess the judgments and the key sources of estimation applied to the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

During the year ended 31 December 2020, management has assessed the overall impact on the Company's operations and business aspects, and considered factors like effects on supply chain, impact of decreased oil prices, operating rates of its plants and lost volume, and products demand. Based on this assessment, the management concluded that, as at the issuance date of these interim condensed financial statements, the Company did not face significant adverse impact on its operations and business due to COVID-19 pandemic and no significant changes are required to the judgements, assumptions and key estimates in the interim condensed financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.

To preserve the health of the employees and support the prevention of contagion in the operational and administrative areas, the Company took measures, in line with the recommendations of the World Health Organisation and Ministry of Health, such as working from home, social distancing at work place, rigorous cleaning of workplaces, distribution of personal protective equipment, testing of suspected cases, limiting non-essential travel, self-health declarations and measuring body temperature.

The operational and financial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic to date have been reflected in these interim condensed financial statements. The strong financial position, including access to funds and absence of debt, coupled with the actions the Company has taken to date and the continued activity of its Parent Company ensures that the Company has the capacity to continue through the challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, in view of the current uncertainty, any future change in the assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of the assets or liabilities affected in the future periods. As the situation is rapidly evolving with future uncertainties, management will continue to assess the impact based on prospective developments.
