ANNUAL REPORT 2013

CHAIRMANS STATEMENT
Distinguished Shareholders,
I am delighted to welcome you all to the 8th Annual General Meeting of Transnational Corporation of Nigeria Plc (Transcorp and or the Company) and to present the Annual Report and the Audited Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2013.

Highlights of Our Performance in 2013

2013 has been a transformational year for our group, and one of which we can all be justifiably proud. Our management has begun to show the results of a disciplined execution of strategy and shareholders have begun to see their rewards. Transcorp achieved very strong financial and operating results in FY 2013, as evidenced by growth in key performance indicators for the Company, as well as consolidated results of its subsidiaries (The Group). FY 2013 gross earnings of N25.23 billion for the Group represents an increase of 60% over prior year gross earnings of N15.81 billion. The Companys gross earnings increased in 2013 by 41% from N4.80 billion in 2012 to N6.78 billion. This impressive gross earnings growth translated into significant operating profit for the Group as 2013 PBT of N9.03 billion represents 129% growth over 2012 PBT of N3.95 billion. Companys 2013 PBT of N3.19 billion increased by 11% from N2.88 billion achieved in 2012. In 2013, the Groups total assets of N149.46 billion grew by 50%, well ahead of the N99.56 billion total assets recorded last year. The total assets of the Company increased to N49.08 billion in 2013 from N38.65 billion in the prior year. The principal cause of asset growth for the Group and Company was our acquisition of the Ughelli Power Plant, Nigerias largest generating facility and where our influence has already seen a doubling of capacity. On the back of this very positive result, your directors are proposing a dividend of 5 kobo per share for your approval. This is the first time since incorporation that your Company will be paying a dividend and marks a significant inflection point. I believe that we will build on the solid foundation laid over the last couple of years to begin an era of steady and increasing dividend payment to our shareholders.

The Global Economy

The recovery of the global economy from the financial crisis of 2008 continued on a slow course during the year, with growth projected to accelerate in 2014. Financial markets across the world continued to benefit from low cost funds throughout the year, as the anticipated decision by the US Federal Reserve to reduce its monthly asset purchases was only announced in December 2013. The US Federal Reserves quantitative easing has helped to restore growth in the US as the economy recorded a growth rate of 1.6%. In Europe, weak domestic demand and existing structural issues contributed to sluggish GDP growth of 0.4%. Issues facing policy makers in the Euro Zone include weak financial markets, high private and public debt and depressed confidence. Despite the challenging conditions, a number of countries in the Euro Zone are beginning to exhibit signs of recovery. For example, Moodys has raised its outlook for Spain from negative to stable citing real improvement in government finances and the economy. Ireland recorded improvements in economic performance as unemployment fell while Greece is expected to grow by 0.6% in 2014 after two years of contraction. In Asia, monetary and fiscal stimuli have re-established the Japanese economy on the path of growth as the Bank of Japan has stated that countrys economy has entered a phase of moderate recovery. Chinas growth rate remained at 7.70%, the same recorded in 2012. The growth in the Chinese economy can be attributed to strong investment activity recorded in the second half of 2013.

CHAIRMANS STATEMENT continued


A review of the performance of the major emerging markets showed mixed results. Russia recorded a decline in growth from 3.40% recorded in 2012 to 1.50% in 2013. India and Brazil registered increased growth rates from 3.20% and 1.00% respectively in 2012 to 4.40% and 2.30% in 2013. Despite higher growth, private capital inflows into Brazil and India remained sensitive to global financial conditions particularly monetary policy conditions in the UnitedStates. The IMFs revised growth rate for Sub-Saharan Africa was 5% for 2013, lower than an initial projection of 5.8%. According to the Fund, the weaker than forecast growth rate for 2013 reflected both a more adverse external environment characterised by rising financing costs, less dynamic emerging markets, and less favourable commodity prices and diverse domestic factors, including slower investment and weakening consumer confidence in some cases, and adverse supply developments in others. These factors notwithstanding, the continent is forecast to experience growth rates of 6% and above in 2014, as possible temporary declines in international commodity prices are not expected to affect growth in the continent.

The Local Economy


Provisional data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) indicate that real GDP grew 6.87% in 2013, compared to 6.58% in 2012. In terms of contribution to GDP, the agricultural sector was the dominant contributor accounting for 38.6% followed by wholesale and retail trade (20.1%), crude petroleum and natural gas (13.4%) and telecommunication and post (8.2%). The oil sectors relative contribution and importance to GDP dipped during year when compared to 2012, owing to the increased cases of production shut-ins due to the rising incidences of pipeline vandalisation and crude oil theft. The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) continued with its tight monetary policy stance in the year, maintaining its benchmark rate at 12% throughout the year. The tight monetary stance and a relatively stable exchange rate regime accounted for moderation in price levels in the economy as the country recorded single digit inflation rate throughout the year. The reduced inflation rate notwithstanding, the CBNs tight monetary stance continues to make borrowing expensive and has reduced the pace of investment in the country.

TRANSCORP

ANNUAL REPORT 2013

The capital market continued its rally as the All-Share Index (ASI) increased by 47.2% from 28,078.81 on 31 December 2012 to 41,329.19 on 31 December 2013. Market Capitalisation increased by 47.4% from N8.97 trillion to N13.23 trillion during the same period. Improved earnings and investor confidence in macroeconomic management contributed to the rise in stock prices. In line with President Goodluck Jonathans Transformation Agenda, substantial progress was made in the reform of critical sectors of the economy during the year. In the power sector, the privatisation of the Power Holding Company Nigeria (PHCN) Successor Companies was concluded and the new private sector owners including our Company Transcorp have taken control of the power assets. The privatisation process has been widely acclaimed as one of the most comprehensive and transparent in the history of power sector privatisation globally. In agriculture, the governments Agriculture Transformation Agenda is beginning to yield desired results as government select programmes is gradually and increasingly transforming the sector from a developmental project to a self-sustaining business.

Board Changes
At our last Annual General Meeting held on 21 June 2013, Dr. Julius Kpaduwa retired from the Board of the Company. On 11 December 2013, Ms. Angela Aneke resigned as a Director of the Company and on 16 December 2013, Mr. Emmanuel N. Nnorom was appointed to the Board. On behalf of the staff, management, the Board of Directors and our shareholders, I would like to thank Dr. Kpaduwa and Ms. Aneke for their invaluable contributions to the growth of the Company and wish them success in their future endeavours.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS REPORT


Distinguished Shareholders,
In 2011, we set out a comprehensive agenda to restructure Transcorp for accelerated growth and maximum profitability. This included an aggressive strategy aimed at diversifying our businesses and expanding our income streams. Today, I am pleased to announce that we have made good progress and our 2013 full year audited results underscore our overall performance.

Operating Results and Financial Performance Review


Our Annual Report and Accounts prepared in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards present the operating results of the group and subsidiaries for the year ended 31 December 2013. In line with our foundation of sound corporate governance and our adherence to regulatory standards, IFRS has provided a uniform and consistent basis of preparing our financial information for comparison and greater transparency group-wide. Transcorp achieved very strong financial and operating results in FY 2013 as evidenced by growth in various key performance indicators for the Company as well as consolidated results of its subsidiaries (the Group).

Revenue
FY 2013 gross earnings of N25.23 billion for the Group represents a growth of 60% over prior year gross earnings of N15.81billion. The Companys gross earnings increased in 2013 by 41% from N4.80 billion in 2012 to N6.78 billion. Strong revenue growth in 2013 was achieved on the back of improved occupancy levels at Transcorp Hilton Abuja, energy sales from newly acquired Ughelli Power Plant and fair value gains from listed equities investments.
Nbn 30 25 20

Assets
In 2013, the Groups total assets grew by 50% from N99.5 billion to N149.4 billion. The total assets of the company increased to N49.0 billion in 2013 from N38.65 billion in the prior year. The major drivers of this growth included the funds raised through the rights issue undertaken during the year and the significant investments in Transcorp Ughelli.
Nbn 150

We successfully acquired Ughelli Power Plc, the operator of the 972MW Ughelli Power Plant. Remarkably, within two months, the plants generating capacity of 160MW increased from to 360MW. Our long term plan is to increase the plants output to 3000MW within the next three to five years. Our intent to play a leading role in the Nigerian power sector goes beyond power generation. We envision an energy city with the Ughelli plant as a hub that will catalyse industrial development in the country. The planned energy city will comprise fertiliser and petrochemical plants among other heavy industries. We also plan to positively impact our host communities through effective community relations initiatives such as providing educational, health and sporting facilities of global standards. We have stepped up our engagement with the Ministry of Petroleum and regulatory bodies to complete the documentation and pre-drilling activities for our oil block OPL 281. We are further exploring opportunities for the acquisition of oil and gas assets available from ongoing divestiture of onshore assets by IOCs and sale of marginal fields by the federal government.

Capital Restructuring and Rights Issue


On 30 January 2013, we held a court-ordered meeting where you voted unanimously for the adoption of a Scheme of Arrangement to ratify the Companys share premium account of N27.07 billion. You will recall that part of this arrangement included offsetting the negative balance on the Companys revenue reserve accounts as at 31 December 2011 of N25.77billion. Further, in June 2013, we recorded a successful Rights Issue of 12 906 999 142 ordinary shares oF 50 kobo each. The Rights recorded a gross proceed of N12.91 billion and an oversubscription level by 32%. These two events represent significant milestones in our corporate history. While the Rights Issue provided us with financial muscle to undertake new investments and improve profitability, the Scheme of Arrangements enabled us to rest the legacy issues that impaired our ability to pay dividends. We are quite excited as a company to have arrived at this point.

Hospitality
Our hospitality business continues to make excellent progress as we focus on developing more hotels as well as expanding and renovating existing ones. Transcorp Hilton Hotel Abuja received the Nigerias Leading Hotel in 2013 award by World Travel Awards. The award-winning hotel also secured hosting rights for the World Economic Forum on Africa in 2014. In line with our hospitality expansion plans, we executed a Management Agreement with Hilton Worldwide for the development of a 350-room five-star Transcorp Hilton in Ikoyi, Lagos. We plan to break ground shortly while targeting completion within the next two to three years. Furthermore, we recently acquired a prime location in Port Harcourt, Rivers State for the development of another 350-room five-star Hotel. We are now negotiating with Hilton Worldwide for the predevelopment works and expect to commence construction by third quarter of 2014. In line with our commitment to continuously improving our customer service delivery, we have commenced the renovation and upgrade of Transcorp Hilton Hotel Abuja. Part of this project includes the construction of a 5 000 seat capacity conference facility and 200 luxury apartments within the hotel premises.

Key Business Achievements

Our key investment in the Nigerian power profit sector has provided the right platform needed to stimulate growth.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS REPORT continued


In addition, the hotel is developing operational excellence with increased focus on high-impact projects that will translate to superior guest experience. It has also embarked on trainings as well as service strategy and visioning sessions to equip staff with the right skills and attitude for world class customer service delivery. During the year, we successfully resolved the dispute over the ownership of the 51% stake in THTSL (formerly NIRMSCO Properties Limited), owners of the Transcorp Hilton, Abuja. Transcorp Hotels Calabar has continued to provide world class hospitality to all our discerning guests. We have continued the extensive renovation and upgrade of the hotel we re-launched two years ago. The hotel caters to the needs of leisure travellers and is the preferred centre of choice for several high profile events in Calabar. In our power business, we will focus on concluding the rehabilitation of a number of identified turbines in order to improve generating output at the Ughelli plant to 700MW. Our oil and gas business will witness a speedy take-off as we expect to finalise negotiations of the production sharing contract of OPL281 with the Department of Petroleum Resources. We will embark on aggressive drilling campaign for commercial production before the end of 2014. The focal point of our hospitality business will be to commence construction of our proposed Transcorp Hilton Ikoyi, Lagos. We will also target the completion of the project development activities for the planned Transcorp Hilton Port Harcourt. We expect to conclude the renovation works at Transcorp Hilton, Abuja by the end of the 2015 financial year. In our agriculture space, we plan to close a number of commercial negotiations for our fruit juice concentrates. Subsequently, we will exploit backward integration opportunities through cultivation of a 5000 hectares farm to improve supply of raw materials to the factory.

Agriculture
Our agribusiness subsidiary, Teragro Commodities Limited, was successfully accredited by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) and was awarded two food safety certifications: ISO 9001: 2008 and FSSC 22000: 2005. These certificates underscore our commitment to global safety standards and clearly position Teragro as the leading fruit juice concentrate producer in Nigeria. We launched an informative and interactive Teragro website www.teragro-ng.com a platform that provides pertinent information on Teragros essence and guides our prospective and current customers on our methodology, and product specifications in line with international standards. In the medium term, we are backward integrating with a planned development of our own mango and orange farms to significantly enhance the scope of our business. We believe that we will build capacity to respond to the increasing demand for our fruit juice concentrates and purees.

Closing
In closing, I would like to thank the Board of Directors, the management and staff for their commitment and support. We believe that Transcorp is well positioned to become the foremost conglomerate in Nigeria, driving positive change and growth in its defined business sectors. Thank you.

Obinna Ufudo Chief Executive Officer

Outlook
2014 promises to be very bright as we are well on track to again deliver on all our set objectives. Our key target is to grow Group profits to over N25billion during the year. We intend to achieve this by the continued diversification and deepening of our existing businesses.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies


2.1 Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) , including International Accounting Standards (IAS) and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Groups accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in note 4. The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles under IFRS, requires the directors to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued


the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on the directors best knowledge of the amount, event or actions, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates. The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for the fair value basis applied to certain property plant and equipment, intangible assets, investment property and equity investments. The financial statements are presented in Naira being the functional currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates. All values are rounded to the nearest thousand (N000), except when otherwise indicated. 2.1.1 Going concern The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The directors have no doubt that the Company would remain in existence after 12 months.

2.1.2 Changes in accounting policy and disclosures New and amended standards adopted by the Group The following standards have been adopted by the Group for the first time for the financial year beginning on or after 1 January 2013 and have a material impact on the Group. The IAS 1, Financial statement presentation: Amendment to IAS 19, Employee benefits Published June 2011. IFRS 10, Consolidated financial statements. Published May 2011. IFRS 12, Disclosure of interest in other entities. Published May 2011. Amendments to IFRS 10, 11 and 12 on transition guidance. Published July 2012. IFRS 13, Fair value measurement. Published May 2011. IAS 27 (revised 2011) Separate financial statements. Published May 2011. Amendment to IAS 32, Financial instruments: Presentation, on offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities. Published December 2011. 2.2 Consolidation (a) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the separate financial statements of Transcorp. In the consolidated financial statements, subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at the present ownership instruments proportionate share of the recognised amounts of acquirees identifiable net assets for components that are present and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of net assets in the events of liquidation. All other components of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

37

TRANSCORP

ANNUAL REPORT 2013

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirees previously held equity interest in the acquiree is re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re-measurement are recognised in profit or loss. Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the Group is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration that is deemed to be an asset or liability is recognised in accordance with IAS 39 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not re-measured, and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest recognised and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement. Inter-Company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated. When necessary amounts reported by subsidiaries have been adjusted to conform with the Groups accounting policies. (b) Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity. Disposal of subsidiaries When the Group ceases to have control, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

(c)

(d) Associates Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted for at cost in the separate financial statements of Transcorp. In the consolidated financial statements, associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognised at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognise the investors share of the profit or loss of the investee after the date of acquisition. The Groups investment in associates includes goodwill identified on acquisition. If the ownership interest in an associate is reduced but significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate. The Groups share of post-acquisition profit or loss is recognised in the income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the investment. When the Groups share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

38

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued


The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the case, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying value and recognises the amount adjacent to share of profit/(loss) of associates in the income statement. (e) Common control transactions The Group applies predecessor values method in accounting for business combination under common control. The financial statements are prepared using predecessor book values, i.e. the book values of the net assets of the acquiree Company in the consolidated accounts of the Group before the transaction, without any step up to fair value. The difference between any consideration given and the aggregate book value of the assets and liabilities (as of the date of the transaction) of the acquired entity is recorded as an adjustment to equity. This is recorded in retained earnings. No additional goodwill is created by the transaction.

2.3

Segment reporting Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors of Transcorp. Foreign currency translation (a) Functional and presentation currency Items included in the financial statements of each of the Groups entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which Transcorp operates (the functional currency). The functional currency of Transcorp and its subsidiaries is the Nigerian Naira (N). All entities in the Group have the same functional currency. The consolidated financial statements are also presented in Naira. (b) Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are re-measured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement. Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the income statement within finance income or costs. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the income statement within other (expenses)/income net. Translation differences related to changes in amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss.

2.4

2.5

Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Subsequent costs are included in the assets carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight line method to allocate their costs or revalued amounts to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows: Leasehold buildings Plant and machinery Turbines Plant and machinery Others Furniture and fittings Office equipment Motor vehicles

TRANSCORP

The assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The Group allocates the amount initially recognised in respect of an item of property, plant and equipment to its significant parts and depreciates separately each such part. The carrying amount of a replaced part is derecognised when replaced. Residual values, method of amortisation and useful lives of the assets are reviewed annually and adjusted if appropriate. Where an indication of impairment exists, an assets carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the assets carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in the income statement. 2.6 Intangible assets (a) Goodwill Goodwill arises on the acquisition of subsidiaries and represents the excess of the consideration transferred over Transcorps interest in the net fair value of the net identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree and the fair value of the non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash generating units (CGUs), or Groups of CGUs, that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Each unit or Group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is monitored at the operating segment level. Goodwill impairment reviews are undertaken annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The carrying value of goodwill is compared to the recoverable amount, which is the higher of value in use and the fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment is recognised immediately as an expense and is not subsequently reversed. (b) Computer software Costs associated with maintaining computer software programmes are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Group are recognised as intangible assets when the following criteria are met: it is technically feasible to complete the software product so that it will be available for use; the directors intends to complete the software product and use or sell it; there is an ability to use or sell the software product; it can be demonstrated how the software product will generate probable future economic benefits; adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the software product are available; and the expenditure attributable to the software product during its development can be reliably measured.

Directly attributable costs that are capitalised as part of the software product include the software development employee costs and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads. Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period. Computer software development costs recognised as assets are amortised over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives of the software of the Group is between three to eight years.

(c) Oil Prospecting License The Group accounts for expenditures on the Oil Prospecting License having regard to the requirements of IFRS 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources. Expenditures related to the oil prospecting license are capitalised at cost. Such expenditures include costs of acquisition of License, geological and geophysical surveys and directly attributable overheads and administrative expenses. General prospecting or evaluation costs incurred prior to having obtained the legal rights to explore an area are expensed directly to the income statements as they are incurred, if they do not meet the capitalisation criteria as specified in the IFRS framework. The capitalised costs are not depleted but are carried forward until technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting oil is considered to be determined. This is when proven and/or probable reserves are determined to exist. A review of the exploration license or field is carried out, at least annually, to determine whether proven and/ or probable reserves have been discovered. Upon determination of proven and/or probable reserves, exploration and evaluation assets attributable to those reserves are tested for impairment and then are transferred to property plant and equipment as oil and gas assets. 2.7 Investment properties Properties that are held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and that are not occupied by the entities in the consolidated Group, are classified as investment properties. Recognition of investment properties takes place only when it is probable that the future economic benefits that are associated with the investment property will flow to the entity and the cost can be measured reliably. This is usually the day when all risks are transferred. Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. The carrying amount includes the cost of replacing parts of an existing investment property at the time the cost was incurred if the recognition criteria are met; and excludes the costs of day-to-day servicing of an investment property. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment properties are included in the consolidated income statement in the year in which they arise. Subsequent expenditure is included in the assets carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the consolidated profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred. The fair value of investment properties is based on the nature, location and condition of the specific asset. The fair value is obtained from professional third party valuers contracted to perform valuations on behalf of the Group. The fair value of investment property does not reflect future capital expenditure that will improve or enhance the property and does not reflect the related future benefits from this future expenditure. These valuations are performed annually by external appraisers. 2.8 Impairment of non-financial assets Assets that have an indefinite useful life for example, goodwill are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the assets carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assets fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are Grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Prior impairments of non-financial assets (other than goodwill) are reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. Financial instruments Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

TRANSCORP

ANNUAL REPORT 2013

2.9.1 Classification The directors determine the classification of its financial instruments at initial recognition. (a) Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets or liabilities held for trading. A financial asset or liability is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if expected to be realised within 12 months, otherwise, they are classified as non-current. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. These are classified as non-current assets. The Groups loans and receivables comprises trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet. Available-for-sale investments Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless the investment matures or directors intends to dispose of it within 12 months of the end of the reporting period. Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the directors have the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity, other than: (i) those that the Group upon initial recognition designates as at fair value through profit or loss; (ii) those that the Group designates as available-for-sale; and (iii) those that meet the definition of loans and receivables. (e) Financial liabilities at amortised cost Financial liabilities at amortised cost include trade payables, bank debt and long-term debt.

(b)

(c)

(d)

2.9.2 Recognition and measurement (a) Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss Financial instruments in this category are recognised initially and subsequently at fair value. Transaction costs are expensed in the consolidated statement of income. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are presented in the consolidated statement of income within other gains and losses (net) in the period in which they arise. Non-derivative financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are classified as current except for the portion expected to be realised or paid beyond twelve months of the reporting date, which are classified as long-term. Interest swaps and warrants are classified as current. (b) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are initially recognised at the amount expected to be received, less, when material, a discount to reduce the loans and receivables to fair value. Subsequently, loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less a provision for impairment. Available-for-sale investments Available-for-sale investments are recognised initially at fair value plus transaction costs and are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from remeasurement are recognised in other comprehensive income except for exchange gains and losses on the translation of debt securities, which are recognised in the consolidated statement of income. When an available-for-sale investment is sold or impaired, the accumulated gains or losses are moved from accumulated other comprehensive income to the income statement. Available-for-sale investments are classified as non-current, unless an investment matures within twelve months, or the directors expects to dispose of it within twelve months.

(c)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued


(d) Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are initially recognised at fair value including direct and incremental transaction costs and measured subsequently at amortised cost, using the effective interest method. Financial liabilities at amortised cost Trade payables are initially recognised at the amount required to be paid, less, when material, a discount to reduce the payables to fair value. Subsequently, trade payables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Bank debt and long-term debt are recognised initially at fair value, net of any transaction costs incurred, and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. These are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within twelve months. Otherwise, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

(e)

2.10 Offsetting financial instruments Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 2.11 Impairment of financial assets (a) Assets carried at amortised cost The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or Group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a Group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a loss event) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or Group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a Group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation, and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults. The Group first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists. For loans and receivables category, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the assets carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial assets original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognised in the consolidated income statement. If a loan or held-tomaturity investment has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the Group may measure impairment on the basis of an instruments fair value using an observable market price. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised (such as an improvement in the debtors credit rating), the reversal of the previously recognised impairment loss is recognised in the consolidated income statement. (b) Assets classified as available for sale The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a Group of financial assets is impaired. For debt securities, the Group uses the criteria referred to in (a) above. In the case of equity investments classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is also evidence that the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-forsale financial assets, the cumulative loss measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss is removed from equity and recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in the consolidated income statement on

ANNUAL REPORT 2013

equity instruments are not reversed through the consolidated income statement. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through the consolidated income statement. 2.12 Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and estimated net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. This includes the cost of direct materials to the Companys premises and other direct costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less selling expenses. 2.13 Trade receivables Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. If collection is expected in one year or less, they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets. 2.14 Cash, cash equivalents and bank overdrafts Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. 2.15 Borrowings Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. 2.16 Borrowing costs General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, (i.e. Capitalised) until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. 2.17 Trade payables Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payables are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 2.18 Current and deferred tax The tax for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the income statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Groups liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

44

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued


Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited to the income statement, except when it relates to items charged or credited to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax liabilities on a net basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented as non-current in the statement of financial position. 2.19 Employee benefits (a) Gratuity scheme Some subsidiaries operate an unfunded defined benefit gratuity scheme. The level of benefit provided is based on the length of service and earnings of the person entitled. The cost of defined benefit plans is determined using the projected unit credit method. The related pension liability recognised in the statement of financial position is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. Actuarial valuations for defined benefit plans are carried out annually. The discount rate applied in arriving at the present value of the pension liability represents the yield on high quality corporate bonds denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related pension liability. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in full in the period in which they occur, in other comprehensive income. Current service cost, the recognised element of any past service cost and the interest expense arising on the pension liability are included in the same line items in the income statement as the related compensation cost. (b) Defined contribution scheme The Group operates a defined contributory pension scheme in line with the provisions of the Pension Reform Act 2004. The employers contributions are recognised as employee benefit expenses when they are due. The Group has no further payment obligation once the contributions have been paid. Profit-sharing and bonus plans The Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses and profit-sharing, based on a formula that takes into consideration the profit attributable to the shareholders after certain adjustments. The Group recognises a provision where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

2.20 Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable stated net of discounts, returns and value added taxes. The Group earns revenue from the sale of goods and services. The Company earns revenue from dividends received. Income from investments is recognised when it is earned. Income is earned as follows: (i) (ii) Dividends are earned in the profit and loss account on the date the Companys right to receive payment is established; and Interest earned on cash investments in money market instruments is recognised in the profit and loss account as it accrues evenly over the period of the investment. Recognition of revenue for goods and services is recognised when it is earned. Revenue is earned when: The significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer or the service has been rendered. The Group does not retain effective control over goods sold. The amount of revenue can be reliably measured. It is possible that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company. The costs incurred in respect of the sale can be measured reliably.

For goods and services, this implies when the goods have been delivered to the customer and when the service has been performed. The Transcorp Hilton Hotel Abuja offers a customer loyalty programme called the Hilton Honours guest reward programme on behalf of Hilton International. Under this programme, registered members earn points when they pay for rooms or services at the Hotel. The Group accounts for the points as a separately identifiable component of the sales transaction in which they are granted (the initial sale of rooms or service). The consideration received or receivable in respect of the initial sale is allocated between the points and the sale of rooms or service with reference to the fair value of the points. Revenue is measured as the net amount retained by the hotel, i.e. the difference between the consideration allocated to the award credits and the amount payable to the Hilton International for supplying the awards. 2.21 Leases Operating lease Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by another party, the lessor, are classified as operating leases. Payments, including prepayments, made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. When an operating lease is terminated before the lease period has expired, any payment required to be made to the lessor by way of penalty is recognised as an expense in the period in which termination takes place. Finance lease Leases of items by the Group where the Group has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the leases commencement at the lower of the fair value of the asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance charges. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other long-term payables. The interest element of the finance cost is charged to the income statement over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases is depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term. 2.22 Dividend distribution Dividend distribution to the Groups shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Groups financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Groups shareholders. In respect of interim dividends these are recognised when declared by the Board of Directors.

2.23 Share capital Ordinary shares are classified as share capital in equity. Any premium received over and above the par value of the shares is classified as share premium in equity. 2.24 Treasury shares The cost of the Transcorp Plcs own equity instruments that has been reacquired (treasury shares) by the Company or by other members of the consolidated Group is deducted from equity. Gain or loss is not recognised on the purchase, sale, issue, or cancellation of treasury shares. The difference between the cost and consideration received is recognised directly in retained earnings.

Financial risk management


3.1 Financial risk factors The Groups activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Groups overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Groups financial performance. The Group does not hedge any of its risk exposures. Risk management is carried out in line with policies approved by the board of directors. The board provides written policies for overall risk management, as well as set the overall risk appetite for the Group. Specific risk management approaches are defined for respective risks such as interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity and investment risk. The Groups overall risk management programme seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Groups financial performance. (a) Market risk (i) Foreign exchange risk Foreign exchange risks arise from future commercial transactions and recognised assets. The Group makes payments and receipts primarily in Nigerian Naira. Periodically however, receipts and payments are made in other currencies, mostly in the US dollar. The directors approach to managing foreign exchange risk is to hold foreign currency bank accounts which act as a natural hedge for these transactions. At 31 December 2013, if the Naira had weakened/strengthened by 10% against the US dollar with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the year of the Group would have decreased or increased by N89.3 million (Company N0.75 million) mainly as a result of foreign exchange gains/losses on translation of US dollar-denominated bank balances. (ii) Price risk The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk because of investments classified on the statement of financial position as equity investments held for trading and measured at fair value through profit or loss . The Group is not exposed to commodity price risk. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Group engages a third party expert; BGL Asset Management Limited who offers advice on sale and purchase. If the market price of investments in equity securities had increased by 5% at the reporting date profit of the Group and the Company would have increased by N201.14 million (2012: N94.25 million) after taxes. (iii) Interest rate risk The Groups interest rate risk arises from short-term and long-term borrowings. Borrowings are issued at fixed rates and expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The Groups policy on managing interest rate risk is to negotiate favourable terms with the bank(s) to reduce the impact of its exposure to this risk. The interest rate risk is significantly concentrated with United Bank of Africa (UBA) being the major lender of all borrowings by the Group. The borrowings are disclosed in note 18.

Credit risk Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, deposits and debt securities with banks and financial institutions as well as credit exposures to customers, including outstanding receivables and committed transactions. Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group does not have any significant concentrations of credit risk. Credit risk is managed by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Finance Officer, except for credit risk relating to trade receivable balances. For deposits, the Group only deals with or invests in independently rated top 10 banks in Nigeria. The Group analyses the risk profile of the obliger before making investments in debt securities. Investments are only made when such analysis are deemed satisfactory. The credit rating for debt securities held are highlighted below: Credit rating by counter party Group Company N000 N000 BB+ BB+ Fixed income investment 3 630 763 3 630 763 3 630 763 3 630 763

Most of the Groups trade customers are not independently rated, therefore the quality of the customer is considered by taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. Each subsidiary is responsible for managing and analysing the credit risk for each of their new customers before standard delivery terms and conditions are offered. The continuous credit worthiness of the existing customers is analysed periodically based on history of performance of the obligations and settlement of their debt. The Group does not hold any collateral as security, no receivables have had their terms renegotiated. No financial assets are past due except for trade receivables. As at 31 December 2012, trade receivables of N4.5 billion (2012: N230 million) were fully performing, N1.9 billion (2012: N825 million) were past due but not impaired and N140 million (2012: N531 million) were impaired. The aging analysis of the latter two categories of receivables is as follows: Group 2013 N000 Past due but not impaired Up to 3 months 3 to 6 months Over 6 months Impaired Up to 3 months 3 to 6 months Over 6 months 1 964 903 570 104 192 474 1 202 325 139 567 38 600 42 646 58 321 2012 N000 824 689 564 104 80 144 180 441 530 947 28 394 273 057 229 496

The credit quality of trade receivables that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to historical information about default rates.

Concentration of credit risk is determined by the percentage of trade receivable due form a counterparty in proportion to the total trade receivables of the Group. Any receivable equal or greater than 25% of the total trade receivable of the Group is considered significant. For the years ended 31 December 2013 and 2012, the Group has no significant concentration of credit risk. (c) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. Cash flow forecasts are prepared by the Group Chief Finance Officer to monitor the Groups liquidity requirements and ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs at all times so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits on any of its borrowing facilities. Such forecasts take into consideration the Groups committed and expected debt financing plans, internal and administrative cashflow requirements in arriving at the headroom for investments. Surplus cash held by the Group over and above the balance required for working capital management are invested in debt or equity securities. These can be realised in the short term to provide sufficient head room as determined by the abovementioned forecasts. The table below analyses the Groups financial liabilities into relevant maturity Groupings based on the remaining period at the reporting date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. There is concentration risk in this regard as United Bank for Africa Plc is the major lender to the Group.

Capital risk management The Groups objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Groups ability to continue as a going concern to in order to maximise returns for shareholders. Consistent with others in the industry, the Group monitors capital on a monthly basis using the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as total debt divided by total equity. Total debt is a sum of the short- and long-term borrowings. Total equity is calculated as the sum of all equity components of the statement of financial position. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may increase or reduce its borrowings to obtain an appropriate gearing ratio. During 2013, the Groups strategy, which was unchanged from 2012, was to maintain the gearing ratio not greater than 75% for financing its long-term investments in the agriculture, power, oil and gas and hospitality sectors. The gearing ratios at 31 December 2013 and 2012 are as follows: Group 2013 N000 Total debt Less: cash and cash equivalents Net debt Total equity Gearing ratio 43 109 276 (9 195 229) 33 914 047 86 676 507 39% 2012 N000 13 767 554 (5 549 863) 8 217 691 64 096 644 13% Company 2013 N000 9 961 617 17 680 9 979 297 32 918 935 30% 2012 N000 13 267 597 (117 860) 13 149 737 17 734 017 74%

The increase in the gearing ratio for the Group during 2013 resulted from an increase of over $215 million in loans for the acquisition of Ughelli Power Plc. Details have been presented in note 18. 3.3 Fair value estimation The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1). Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (Level 2). Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs) (Level 3).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued


The following table presents the Groups financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value at 31 December 2013: Assets Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Equity securities at fair value through profit or loss Level 1 4 520 008 Level 2 Level 3 Total 4 520 008

There were no transfers between Levels 1 and 2 during the year. Financial instruments in Level 1 The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry Group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arms length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in Level 1. Instruments included in Level 1 comprise primarily equity investments listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) classified as Equity securities at fair value through profit or loss.

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgements


Critical accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty The preparation of financial statements requires the directors to use judgement in applying its accounting policies and estimates and assumptions about the future. Estimates and other judgements are continuously evaluated and are based on the directors experience and other factors, including expectations about future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The following discusses the most significant accounting judgements and estimates that the Group has made in the preparation of the financial statements: Impairment of goodwill The Group reviews goodwill at least annually and other non-financial assets when there is any indication that the asset might be impaired. The Group has estimated the value in use and fair value of operating segments to which goodwill is allocated using discounted cash flow models that required assumptions about future cash flows, margins, and discount rates. See note 7 for methods and assumptions used in estimating net recoverable amount.

5. Segmental analysis
The Group The chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the Board of Directors of Transcorp. The Board reviews the Groups internal reporting in order to assess performance and allocate resources. The directors have determined the operating segments based on these reports. The Board considers the business from an industry perspective and has identified 4 operating segments. (i) Hospitality The hospitality business is made up of its direct subsidiary Transnational Hotels and Tourism Services Limited (THTSL) and an indirect subsidiary, Transcorp Metropolitan Hotel and Conferencing Limited (TMHCL) which is fully owned by THTSL. Agriculture This relates to a subsidiary Teragro Commodities Limited.

(ii)

(iii) Energy Two subsidiaries make up the Energy segment namely Transcorp Energy Limited, Transcorp Ughelli Power Limited and an indirect subsidiary, Ughelli Power Plc which is fully owned by Transcorp Ughelli Power Limited. (iv) Corporate Centre This segment is the parent Company, Transnational Corporation of Nigeria Plc and the other non-operational subsidiaries. The Board assesses the performance based on operating profits for each operating segment that is reviewed by the Board. Other information provided, except as noted below, to the Board is measured in a manner consistent with that of the financial statements. Total segment assets exclude tax related assets. These are included in the reconciliation to the total statement of financial position assets.

Goodwill is not amortised but tested for impairment annually. The remaining amortisation period for computer software cost is between 3 to 6 years. Goodwill has been allocated to the following CGUs: 31 December 31 December 2013 2012 N000 N000 Transcorp Metropolitan Hotels and Conferencing Limited (TMHCL) Transnational Hotels and Tourism Services Limited (THTSL) Transcorp Ughelli Power Limited (TUPL) 863 163 20 369 790 5 611 411 26 844 364 863 163 18 619 790 19 482 953

Goodwill arose from the excess of the consideration over acquisition-date fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities of subsidiaries acquired. The goodwill amount relates to pre-existing goodwill from previous business combinations. No additional goodwill was recorded for the business combination under common control. In assessing goodwill for impairment at 31 December 2013 and 2012 , the Company compared the aggregate recoverable amount of the assets included in the CGUs below to their respective carrying amounts. Recoverable amount has been determined based on the value in use of the CGUs using five year cash flow budgets approved by directors that made maximum use of observable markets for inputs and outputs. For periods beyond the budget period, cash flows were extrapolated using growth rates that do not exceed the long-term average for the business. Key assumptions included the following: 31 December 2013 TMHCL THTSL Budgeted gross margin % Weighted average growth rate Pre-tax discount rate 74% 6% 14.19% 66% 6% 17.67% 31 December 2012 TMHCL THTSL 67% 6% 14.95% 66% 6% 17.67%

Reasonably possible changes in key assumptions would not cause the recoverable amount of goodwill to fall below the carrying value.

31. Prior period adjustments


In preparing its first set of IFRS financial statements as at 31 December 2012, the Group elected to use the IFRS 1 exemption and carry all classes of property, plant and equipment (PPE) at their respective fair values at transition date. A qualified external valuer (Jide Taiwo and Co) was engaged to perform the valuation of PPE as at transition date (1 January 2011). While preparing the standalone IFRS financial statement of one of its subsidiaries, Transnational Hotels and Tourism Services Limited (THTSL), the qualified valuer identified an error in valuation of Transcorp Hilton Hotels in Abuja used in preparing the consolidated IFRS financial statements for Transnational Corporation of Nigeria Plc for the year ended 31 December 2012. The impact of this understated the deemed cost of land, building and improvements by N23.96 billion at 31 December 2011 and at 31 December 2012. The non-controlling interest reported at 31 December 2011 and at 31 December 2012 was also understated by N11.10 billion. There was also a corresponding understatement of net deferred tax liabilities of N1.29 billion for those respective periods.
