FGV Audited Financial Statements 2023

10 REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Key audit matters (continued) Key audit matters How our audit addressed the key audit matters Impairment assessments of non-financial assets with impairment indicators Management performed impairment assessments of the non-financial assets of the Group and the Company, which had impairment indicators. As a result, the following impairment losses were recognised during the financial year ended 31 December 2023: • Net impairment loss of RM119.5 million at the Group level for property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets and intangible assets. • Impairment loss of RM15.0 million at the Company level in respect of the Company’s cost of investment in subsidiaries. We focused on this area as the recoverable amounts of the non-financial assets are determined based on discounted cash flows projections, which require judgment on the part of management on the future financial performance and the business plan of those businesses. These are disclosed in Notes 19, 20, 22 and 23 to the financial statements. Refer to Note 3(o) in the material accounting policies, Note 5(iii) in the critical accounting estimates and judgments and Notes 19, 20, 22 and 23 to the financial statements. We have performed the following audit procedures: • We assessed the reliability of management’s projections through the comparison of actual past financial performances against previous forecasted results; • We assessed the reasonableness of the key assumptions, which were used by management in developing the discounted cash flows projections, by comparing against historical data and industry trends; • We examined the sensitivity analysis performed by management on the relevant key assumptions for the respective businesses to evaluate the impact on the impairment assessment; and • We assessed the adequacy and reasonableness of the disclosures in the financial statements. Based on our procedures, we noted no significant exceptions.
