Independent Auditor’s Review Report
To the members of Mitchell’s Fruit Farms Limited
Review Report on the Statement of Compliance contained in Listed
Companies (Code of Corporate Governance) Regulations, 2019
We have reviewed the enclosed Statement of Compliance with the Listed Companies (Code of Corporate
Governance) Regulations, 2019 (the Regulations) prepared by the Board of Directors of Mitchell’s Fruit Farms
Limited for the year ended September 30, 2020 in accordance with the requirements of regulation 36 of the
Regulations.
The responsibility for compliance with the Regulations is that of the Board of Directors of the Company. Our
responsibility is to review whether the Statement of Compliance reflects the status of the Company's
compliance with the provisions of the Regulations and report if it does not and to highlight any
non-compliance with the requirements of the Regulations. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of the
Company's personnel and review of various documents prepared by the Company to comply with the
Regulations.
As a part of our audit of the financial statements we are required to obtain an understanding of the
accounting and internal control systems sufficient to plan the audit and develop an effective audit approach.
We are not required to consider whether the Board of Directors' statement on internal control covers all risks
and controls or to form an opinion on the effectiveness of such internal controls, the Company's corporate
governance procedures and risks.
The Regulations require the Company to place before the Audit Committee, and upon recommendation of
the Audit Committee, place before the Board of Directors for their review and approval, its related party
transactions. We are only required and have ensured compliance of this requirement to the extent of the
approval of the related party transactions by the Board of Directors upon recommendation of the Audit
Committee.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that the Statement of
Compliance does not appropriately reflect the Company's compliance, in all material respects, with the
requirements contained in the Regulations as applicable to the Company for the year ended September 30,
2020.

Basis of preparation
2.1 Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting and
reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan. The accounting and reporting standards
applicable in Pakistan comprise of:
- International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS Standards) issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as notified under the Companies Act, 2017;
- Islamic Financial Accounting Standards (IFAS) issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of Pakistan as notified under the Companies Act, 2017; and
- Provisions of and directives issued under the Companies Act, 2017.
Where provisions of and directives issued under the Companies Act, 2017 differ from the
IFRS Standards or IFAS, the provisions of and directives issued under the Companies Act,
2017 have been followed.
2.2 Going concern assumption
During the year, the Company incurred a total comprehensive loss of Rs 52.135 million and
as per the reporting date, the current liabilities of the Company have exceeded its current
assets by Rs 405.808 million. Due to the losses incurred during recent years, the reserves of
the Company have depleted. The dividends have been discontinued. The existing working
capital lines available to the Company have been substantially utilized. The financial results
led to increased short-term borrowing from financial institutions and additional borrowing
from the major shareholders of the Company. Subsequent to the year ended September 30,
2020 the Board approved the right issue scheme vide meeting held on October 26, 2020,
whereby, 15.00 million shares will be issued at a price of Rs. 50 leading to an overall
increase in paid up share capital of Rs. 750.00 million, which has already been received.
The process of allotment of the shares against the right issue shall be completed by February
2021.
Furthermore, the management has taken the following operational improvement measures
comprising of:
- improved pricing and discount structure;
- expanding new business avenues including toll manufacturing; and
- cost reductions.
Based on the above measures and future projections, the management believes that there
will be sufficient liquidity in the foreseeable future to continue as a going concern. Therefore,
the financial statements have been prepared on going concern basis.
58
2.3 Standards, interpretations and amendments to published approved accounting standards
The following amendments to existing standards have been published that are applicable
to the Company’s financial statements covering annual periods, beginning on or after the
following dates:
2.3.1 Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations that are effective in
current year and are relevant to the Company’s operations
Certain standards, amendments and interpretations to IFRS are effective for accounting
periods beginning on October 1, 2019 but are considered not to be relevant or to have any
significant effect on the Company’s operations (although they may affect the accounting for
future transactions and events) and are, therefore, not detailed in these financial statements,
except for the following:
(a) IFRS 16, ‘Leases’
This standard has been notified by the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan
(SECP) to be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. This standard
replaces the previous guidance in International Accounting Standard (IAS) 17, ‘Leases’ and
is a far reaching change in accounting by lessees in particular. Under IAS 17, lessees were
required to make a distinction between a finance lease (on statement of financial position)
and an operating lease (off statement of financial position). IFRS 16 now requires lessees to
recognize a lease liability reflecting future lease payments and a ‘right-of-use asset’ for virtually
all lease contracts. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has included an
optional exemption for certain short-term leases and leases of low-value assets; however, this
exemption can only be applied by lessees. For lessors, the accounting stays almost the same.
However, as the IASB has updated the guidance on the definition of a lease (as well as the
guidance on the combination and separation of contracts), lessors will also be affected by the
new standard. At the very least, the new accounting model for lessees is expected to impact
negotiations between lessors and lessees. The Company has assessed that the application of
this standard does not have any material impact on these financial statements.
(b) Definition of Material – Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8
The IASB has made amendments to IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ and IAS 8
‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’ which use a consistent
definition of materiality throughout International Financial Reporting Standards and the
Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting, clarify when information is material and
incorporate some of the guidance in IAS 1 about immaterial information.
In particular, the amendments clarify:
- that the reference to obscuring information addresses situations in which the effect is
similar to omitting or misstating that information, and that an entity assesses materiality in
the context of the financial statements as a whole, and
- the meaning of ‘primary users of general purpose financial statements’ to whom those
financial statements are directed, by defining them as ‘existing and potential investors,
lenders and other creditors’ that must rely on general purpose financial statements for much
of the financial information they need.
(c) Revised Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting
The IASB has issued a revised Conceptual Framework which will be used in standard-setting
decisions with immediate effect.
59
Key changes include:
- increasing the prominence of stewardship in the objective of financial reporting
- reinstating prudence as a component of neutrality
- defining a reporting entity, which may be a legal entity, or a portion of an entity
- revising the definitions of an asset and a liability
- removing the probability threshold for recognition and adding guidance on derecognition
- adding guidance on different measurement basis, and
- stating that profit or loss is the primary performance indicator and that, in principle, income
and expenses in other comprehensive income should be recycled where this enhances the
relevance or faithful representation of the financial statements.
No changes will be made to any of the current accounting standards. However, entities that
rely on the Framework in determining their accounting policies for transactions, events or
conditions that are not otherwise dealt with under the accounting standards will need to
apply the revised Framework from effective date. These entities will need to consider whether
their accounting policies are still appropriate under the revised Framework.
(d) IFRIC 23, ‘Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments’
This interpretation became effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019.
The IFRIC clarifies how the recognition and measurement requirements of IAS 12 ‘Income
taxes’ are applied where there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. In particular,
it explains that the entity should assume a tax authority will examine the uncertain tax
treatments and have full knowledge of all related information. The IFRIC further explains that
the entity should reflect the effect of the uncertainty in its income tax accounting i.e. when it
is not probable that the tax authorities will accept the treatment using either the most likely
amount or the amount determined using the expected value method. The application of the
interpretation does not have any material impact on the amounts recognized in the financial
statements of the Company.
2.3.2 Standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards that are not yet
effective and have not been early adopted by the Company
The following amendments and interpretations to existing standards have been published
and are mandatory for the Company’s accounting periods beginning on or after October 01,
2020 or later periods, but the Company has not early adopted them:
Standards or interpretations Effective date
(accounting periods
beginning on or after)
Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current
– Amendments to IAS 1 January 1, 2022
Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before intended
use – Amendments to IAS 16 January 1, 2022
Reference to the Conceptual Framework – Amendments
to IFRS 3 January 1, 2022
Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract
Amendments to IAS 37 January 1, 2022
Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020 January 1, 2022
The above standards, amendments and interpretations are not expected to have a material
impact on the Company’s financial statements when they become effective.
60
In addition to the above standards and amendments, improvements to various accounting
standards have also been issued by the IASB in previous years. Such improvements are
generally effective for accounting periods beginning on or after January 01, 2020. The
Company expects that such improvements to the standards will not have any significant
impact on the Company’s financial statements in the period of initial application.
3. Basis of measurement
3.1 These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except
for recognition of certain employee retirement benefits at present value as referred to in note
4.2 and revaluation of biological assets and agricultural produce and financial instruments
at fair values as referred to in note 4.5 and 4.10 respectively.
The Company’s significant accounting policies are stated in note 4. Not all of these significant
policies require the management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments
or estimates. The following is intended to provide an understanding of the policies the
management considers critical because of their complexity, judgment of estimation involved
in their application and their impact on these financial statements. Estimates and judgments
are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience, including expectations of
future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These judgments
involve assumptions or estimates in respect of future events and the actual results may differ
from these estimates. The areas involving a higher degree of judgments or complexity or
areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are as
follows:
a) Retirement benefits
The Company uses the valuation performed by an independent actuary as the present value
of its retirement benefit obligations. The valuation is based on assumptions as mentioned in
note 4.2.
b) Provision for taxation
Where there is uncertainty in income tax accounting i.e. when it is not probable that the tax
authorities will accept the treatment, the impact of the uncertainty is measured using either
the most likely amount or the expected value method, depending on which method better
predicts the resolution of the uncertainty as explained in note 4.1.
c) Useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment
The Company reviews the useful lives of property, plant and equipment on a regular basis.
Any change in estimates in future years might affect the carrying amounts of the respective
items of property, plant and equipment with the corresponding effect on the depreciation
charge and impairment.
d) Sales returns and trade promotions and incentives
There are multiple arrangements for sales returns, trade promotions and incentives given
to the Company’s customers which are required to be estimated at the time of revenue
recognition. These estimates are made by management based on past historical trends
adjusted on the basis of current observable data, which involves the exercise of significant
management judgment.
e) Impairment of trade debts
The Company applied IFRS 9 simplified approach to measure expected credit losses using
a lifetime expected loss allowance for all Trade debts. At each reporting date, the Company
assesses on a forward-looking basis for computation of the expected credit losses associated
with the Trade debts.
61
4. Significant accounting policies
The significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are set
out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented, unless otherwise
stated.
4.1 Taxation
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in statement
of profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in
which case it is recognized in equity.
Current
Provision of current tax is based on the taxable income for the year determined in accordance
with the prevailing law for taxation of income. The charge for current tax is calculated
using prevailing tax rates or tax rates expected to apply to profit for the year if enacted
after taking into account tax credits, rebates and exemptions, if any. The charge for current
tax also includes adjustments, where considered necessary, to provision for tax made in
previous years arising from assessments framed during the year for such years. Where there
is uncertainty in income tax accounting i.e. when it is not probable that the tax authorities
will accept the treatment, the impact of the uncertainty is measured using either the most
likely amount or the expected value method, depending on which method better predicts the
resolution of the uncertainty. Such judgements are reassessed whenever circumstances have
changes or there is new information that affects the judgements. Where, at the assessment
stage, the taxation authorities have adopted a different tax treatment and the Company
considers that the most likely outcome will be in favor of the Company, the amounts are
shown as contingent liabilities.
Deferred
Deferred tax is accounted for using the liability method in respect of all temporary differences
arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial
statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of the taxable profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences and
deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits
will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and
tax credits can be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the rates that are expected to apply to
the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates and tax
laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax is
charged or credited to the statement of profit or loss, except in the case of items charged or
credited to equity in which case it is included in the statement of changes in equity.
4.2 Employee retirement benefits
The main features of the schemes operated by the Company for its employees are as follows:
(a) Defined benefit plans
The Company operates an unfunded gratuity scheme for all employees according to the
terms of employment subject to a minimum qualifying period of service . Annual provision
is made on the basis of actuarial valuation to cover obligations under the scheme for all
employees eligible to gratuity benefits irrespective of the qualifying period.
The latest actuarial valuation for gratuity scheme was carried out as at September 30,
2020. Projected Unit Credit Method, using the following significant assumptions is used for
valuation of the scheme:
62
- Discount rate: 9.75 percent per annum (2019: 12.5 percent per annum)
- Expected rate of increase in salary level: 8.75 percent per annum (2019: 11.5 percent
per annum)
- Average duration of the defined benefit obligation: 8 years (2019: 8 years)
- The Mortality rates assumed were based on SLIC 2001 - 2005 Setback 1 Year (2019:
SLIC 2001 - 2005 Setback 1 Year)
(b) Accumulating compensated absences
The Company provides accumulating compensated absences, when the employees render
service that increase their entitlement to future compensated absences. Under IAS 19, the
accumulated compensated absences are treated as other long term employee benefits.
Provisions are made annually to cover the obligation for accumulating compensated
absences for executives based on actuarial valuation and are charged to profit.
The latest actuarial valuation was carried out as at September 30, 2020. Projected Unit Credit
Method, using the following significant assumptions is used for valuation of accumulating
compensated absences.
- Discount rate: 9.75 percent per annum (2019: 12.5 percent per annum)
- Expected rate of increase in salary level: 8.75 percent per annum (2019: 11.5 percent
per annum)
- Average duration of the plan: 11 years (2019: 12 years)
- The Mortality rates assumed were based on SLIC 2001 - 2005 Setback 1 Year (2019:
SLIC 2001 - 2005 Setback 1 Year)
Actuarial gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial
assumptions are charged or credited to equity in other comprehensive income in the period
in which they arise.
Retirement benefits are payable to staff on completion of prescribed qualifying period of
service under these schemes.
4.3 Property, plant and equipment
4.3.1 Operating fixed assets
Operating fixed assets except freehold land are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation
and any identified impairment loss. Freehold land is stated at cost less any identified
impairment loss. Cost in relation to certain property, plant and equipment signifies historical
cost and borrowing cost as referred to in note 4.17.
Depreciation on all operating fixed assets is charged to statement of profit or loss on the
reducing balance method except for Pulping Plant, Steam Boiler and ancillaries which are
being depreciated using the straight line method, so as to write off the depreciable amount
of an asset over its estimated useful life at following annual rates, after taking into account
the impact of their residual values, if considered significant:
Freehold land 0%
Buildings on freehold land 10%
Buildings on leasehold land 20%
Plant and machinery:
- pulping plant, steam boiler and ancillaries ( on straight line basis ) 2.5% to 3.7%
- others 10%
Vehicles 20%
Furniture and fittings 20%
Electric installations 20% to 33%
Computer hardware 20%
63
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, at each financial year end, and
adjusted if the impact on depreciation is significant. The Company’s estimate of the residual
value and useful life of its operating fixed assets as at September 30, 2020 has not required
any adjustment.
Depreciation on additions to operating fixed assets is charged from the month in which an
asset is acquired or capitalized while no depreciation is charged for the month in which the
asset is disposed off.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the
asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount as mentioned in
note 4.6.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate
asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with
the items will flow to the Company and the cost of the items can be measured reliably. All
other repair and maintenance costs are charged to statement of profit or loss during the
period in which they are incurred.
Fixed assets received as a grant / donation are debited to the property, plant and equipment
account at fair value and a corresponding amount credited to the deferred income account
in the statement of financial position. Such items are thereafter depreciated as per the
policy of the company while a corresponding amount is transferred from deferred income to
statement of profit or loss.
The gain or loss on disposal or retirement of an asset represented by the difference between
the sale proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized as an income or expense.
4.3.2 Capital work-in-progress
Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost less any identified impairment loss. All expenditure
connected with specific assets incurred during installation and construction period are
carried under capital work-in-progress. These are transferred to operating fixed assets as
and when these are available for use.
4.4 Intangible assets
Intangible assets represent the cost of computer software acquired and are stated at cost
less accumulated amortization and any identified impairment loss. Intangible assets are
amortized using the reducing balance method at the rate of 20% so as to write off the cost
of an asset over its estimated useful life.
Amortization on additions is charged from the month in which an asset is acquired or
capitalized while no amortization is charged for the month in which the asset is disposed off.
Amortization is being charged as mentioned in note 15.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the
asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount as mentioned in
note 4.6.
4.5 Biological assets and agriculture produce
Biological assets comprise of livestock and trees. These are measured at fair value less
estimated costs to sell with any resultant gain/loss being recognized in the statement of profit
or loss. Fair value of livestock is determined on the basis of market prices of livestock of
similar age, breed and genetic merit. Fair value of trees is determined on the basis of market
prices of similar items in local areas. Costs to sell include all costs that are necessary to sell
the assets, excluding costs necessary to get the assets to the market.
64
4.6 Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets that have an indefinite useful life, for example land, are not subject to depreciation/
amortization and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to depreciation/
amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized
for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The
recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s 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). Non-financial assets
that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each
reporting date.
4.7 Leases
4.7.1 Lessee accounting
At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease
based on whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for
a period of time in exchange for consideration.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not
paid at the commencement date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate
implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for
leases of the Company, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that
the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of
similar value to the right of use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms,
security and conditions.
To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Company:
- where possible, uses the recent third party financing received by the Company as a starting
point, adjusted to reflect the changes in financing conditions since third party financing
was received;
- uses expected terms of third party financing based on correspondence with the third party
financial institutions, where third party financing was not received recently; and
- makes adjustments specific to the lease e.g. terms and security
Lease payments include fixed payments, variable lease payment that are based on an index
or a rate, amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees,
the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that
option, payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee
exercising that option, less any lease incentives receivable.
In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create
an economic incentive to exercise an extension option or not to exercise a termination
option. Extension options (or periods covered by termination options) are only included in
the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated). While
making this assessment, the Company considers significant penalties to terminate (or not
extend) as well as the significant cost of business disruption.
The lease liability is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate
method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a
change in fixed lease payments or an index or rate, change in the Company’s estimate of
the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if the Company
65
changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination
option. The corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-to-use
asset, or is recorded in profit and loss if the carrying amount of right-to-use asset has been
reduced to zero.
The right-of-use asset is initially measured based on the initial amount of the lease liability
adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial
direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset
or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentive
received. The right-of-use asset is depreciated on a straight line method over the lease term
as this method most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of future economic
benefits. The right-of-use asset is reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for
certain remeasurements of the lease liability.
4.7.2 Lessor accounting
Lease income from operating leases where the Company is a lessor is recognized in income
on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an
operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the underlying asset and recognized as
expense over the lease term on the same basis as lease income. The respective leased assets
are included in the statement of financial position based on their nature.
4.8 Stores, spares and loose tools
Stores, spares and loose tools are valued at moving average cost, while items considered
obsolete are carried at nil value. Items in transit are valued at cost comprising invoice value
plus other charges paid thereon.
Provision is made in the financial statements for obsolete and slow moving stores and spares
based on management’s best estimate.
4.9 Stock in trade
Stock of raw materials is valued principally at the lower of moving average cost and net
realizable value.
Cost of work in process and finished goods comprises direct production costs, labor and
appropriate manufacturing overheads. Work in process is measured at lower of moving
average cost and net realizable value while finished goods are measured at lower of annual
average cost and net realizable value.
Materials in transit are stated at cost comprising invoice value plus other charges paid
thereon.
Net realizable value signifies the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business
less costs necessarily to be incurred in order to make a sale.
Provision is made in the financial statements for obsolete and slow moving stock in trade
based on management’s best estimate.
4.10 Financial assets
In accordance with the requirements of IFRS 9, the Company classifies its financial assets at
amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit
or loss on the basis of the Company’s business model for managing the financial assets and
the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
66
a) Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets at amortized cost are held within a business model whose objective is to
hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms
of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Interest income from these
financial assets, impairment losses, foreign exchange gains and losses, and gain or loss
arising on derecognition are recognized directly in statement of profit or loss.
b) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are held within a business
model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling
financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates
to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding.
c) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are those financial assets which are
either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. A gain or
loss on debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss is
recognized in profit or loss in the period in which it arises.
Financial assets are initially measured at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration
given and received respectively. These financial assets and liabilities are subsequently
remeasured to fair value, amortized cost or cost as the case may be. Any gain or loss on the
recognition and de-recognition of the financial assets and liabilities is included in the profit
or loss for the period in which it arises.
Equity instrument financial assets / mutual funds are measured at fair value at and subsequent
to initial recognition. Changes in fair value of these financial assets are normally recognized
in profit or loss. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognized in profit or loss
when the Company’s right to receive payment is established. Where an election is made
to present fair value gains and losses on equity instruments in other comprehensive income
there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following
the derecognition of the investment.
Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets have
expired or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all risks
and rewards of ownership. Assets or liabilities that are not contractual in nature and that
are created as a result of statutory requirements imposed by the Government are not the
financial instruments of the Company.
The Company assesses on a forward looking basis, the expected credit losses associated
with its financial assets carried at amortized cost and fair value through other comprehensive
income. The Company computes historical loss rates using the historical credit losses which
are then adjusted to reflect current and forward looking information on macroeconomic
factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the receivables. For trade debts, the
Company applied the simplified approach, which requires expected lifetime losses to be
recognized from initial recognition of the receivables. To measure the expected credit losses,
trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the
days past due. The Company recognizes in statement of profit or loss, as an impairment gain
or loss, the amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss
allowance at the reporting date.
67
4.11 Financial liabilities
All financial liabilities are recognized at the time when the Company becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument.
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged
or cancelled or expired. Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from
the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are
substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of
the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in respective
carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of profit or loss.
4.12 Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the
financial statements only when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized
amount and the Company intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the assets and
to settle the liabilities simultaneously.
4.13 Trade debts and other receivables
Trade debts and other receivables are recognized initially at the amount of consideration
that is unconditional, unless they contain significant financing component in which case
such are recognized at fair value. The Company holds the trade debts with the objective of
collecting the contractual cash flows and therefore measures the trade debts subsequently at
amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.
4.14 Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reports issued to
the chief operating decision-maker. The Chief Executive Officer has been identified as the
‘chief operating decision-maker’, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing
performance of the operating segments. Currently the Company is functioning as a single
operating segment.
4.15 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are carried in the statement of financial position at cost. For
the purpose of statement of cash flow, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand,
demand deposits, other short term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to
known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and
finances under mark-up arrangements. In the statement of financial position, finances under
mark-up arrangements are included in current liabilities.
4.16 Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity and recognized at their face value. Incremental costs
directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax.
4.17 Borrowings
Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings
are subsequently stated at amortized cost, any difference between the proceeds (net of
transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the statement of profit or loss
over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Finance costs are
accounted for on an accrual basis and are reported under accrued finance costs to the
extent of the amount remaining unpaid.
68
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right
to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the statement of financial
position date.
4.18 Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of any qualifying asset are capitalized during
the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use.
Other borrowing costs are expensed in the statement of profit or loss in the period in which
they arise.
4.19 Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured
at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Exchange gains and losses arising on
translation in respect of liabilities in foreign currency are added to the carrying amount of
the respective liabilities.
4.20 Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation
as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount can
be made. Provisions are reviewed at each statement of financial position date and adjusted
to reflect the current best estimate.
4.21 Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized when or as performance obligations are satisfied by transferring
control of a promised good or service to a customer and the control transfers at a point in
time. Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received of receivable excluding
discounts, rebates and other considerations payable to customers. A contract liability is
recorded for advances received from customers against which performance obligations have
not been satisfied. Furthermore, refund liability is recognized for estimated sales returns,
volume discounts and other incentives payable to customers.
Return on bank deposits is accrued on a time proportion basis, by reference to the principal
outstanding, at the applicable rate of return.
4.22 Foreign currency transactions and translation
a) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (the functional
currency). The financial statements are presented in Pak Rupees, which is the Company’s
functional and presentation currency.
b) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Pak Rupees using the exchange rates
prevailing at the dates of the transactions. 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 recognized in the
statement of profit or loss. All non-monetary items are translated into rupees at exchange
rates prevailing on the date of transaction or on the date when fair values are determined.
69
4.23 Dividend
Dividend distribution to the Company’s members is recognized as a liability in the period in
which the dividends are approved.
5. Share capital

The Company faces the following risks on account of staff gratuity scheme:
- Final Salary Risk (linked to inflation risk) – the risk that the final salary at the time of
cessation of service is greater than what we assumed. Since the benefit is calculated on the
final salary (which will closely reflect inflation and other macroeconomic factors), the benefit
amount increases as salary increases.
- Mortality Risk - The risk that the actual mortality experience is different than the assumed
mortality. This effect is more pronounced in schemes where the age and service distribution
is on the higher side.
- Withdrawal Risk - The risk of actual withdrawals experience is different from assumed
withdrawal probability. The significance of the withdrawal risk varies with the age, service
and the entitled benefits of the beneficiary.

independent valuer. In this regard, the valuer examined the physical condition of the
livestock, assessed the key assumptions and estimates and relied on the representations
made by the Company as at September 30, 2020. Further, in the absence of an active
market of the Company’s dairy livestock in Pakistan, market and replacement values of
similar live stock from active markets in Australia, have been used as basis of valuation
model by the independent valuer. The cost of transportation to Pakistan is also considered.
The milking animals have been classified according to their lactations. As the number of
lactations increase, the fair value keeps on decreasing.

The Company is exposed to currency risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily
with respect to the United States Dollar (USD). Currently, the Company’s foreign exchange
risk exposure is restricted to the amounts receivable/payable from/to the foreign entities. The
Company’s exposure to currency risk at the reporting date is as follows:
2020 2019
Trade debts - USD 51,500 195,509
The following significant exchange rates were applied during the year:
Rupees per USD
Average rate 160.96 140.15
Reporting date rate 165.71 156.20
If the functional currency, at reporting date, had fluctuated by 5% against the USD with all
other variables held constant, the impact on profit before taxation for the year would have
been Rs 0.43 million (2019: Rs 1.53 million) higher/lower, mainly as a result of exchange
gains/losses on translation of foreign exchange denominated financial instruments. Currency
risk sensitivity to foreign exchange movements has been calculated on a symmetric basis.
(ii) Other price risk
Other price risk represents the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial
instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from
interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific
to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial
instruments traded in the market. The Company is not exposed to equity price risk since there
are no investments in equity securities. The Company is also not exposed to commodity price
risk since it has a diverse portfolio of commodity suppliers.
(iii) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk represents the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial
instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.
The Company has no significant long term interest bearing assets. The Company’s interest
rate risk arises from long term and short term borrowings. Borrowings obtained at variable
rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk.
At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the Company’s interest bearing financial
instruments was:
2020 2019
Rupees Rupees
Fixed rate instruments
Financial liabilities
Loan from shareholders - interest bearing (50,000,000) -
Net exposure (50,000,000) -

Net exposure (560,615,531) (655,331,857)
90
Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed rate instruments
The Company does not account for any fixed rate financial assets and liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss. Therefore, a change in interest rate at the reporting date would not
affect profit or loss of the Company.
Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments
If interest rates on long term finances, at the reporting date, fluctuate by 1% higher/lower
with all other variables held constant, profit before taxation for the year would have been
Rs 5.61 million (2019: Rs 6.55 million ) lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower
interest expense on floating rate borrowings.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk represents the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial
loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Credit risk arises from amounts
receivable from customers of the Company, deposits with banks and other receivables.
(i) Exposure to Credit risk
The management has a credit policy in place and exposure to credit risk is monitored on a
continuous basis. Credit evaluations are performed on all customers requiring credit over a
certain amount. The Company does not require collateral in respect of financial assets. Out
of total financial assets of Rs 246.80 million (2019: Rs 226.39 million) following are subject
to credit risk:
2020 2019
Rupees Rupees
Financial Assets
Trade debts 153,086,373 146,731,281
Loans, advances, deposits and other receivables 11,887,298 16,615,188
Bank balances 35,392,236 18,787,336
200,365,907 182,133,805
Impairment of financial Assets
The Company’s financial assets are subject to the expected credit losses model. While bank
balances, loans, advances, deposits and other receivables are also subject to the impairment
requirements of IFRS 9, the identified impairment loss was immaterial.
Trade Debts
The Company applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses
which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade debts.
To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on
shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. These trade receivables are netted
off with the collateral obtained from these customers to calculate the net exposure towards
these customers. The Company has concluded that the expected loss rates for trade debts
against local sales are different from the expected loss rates for trade debts against export
sales.
The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 12 months
before September 30, 2020 and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced
within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward-looking
information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the
91
receivables. The Company has identified the Gross Domestic Product and the Consumer
Price Index of the country in which it majorly sells its goods and services to be the most
relevant factors, and accordingly adjusts the historical loss rates based on expected changes
in these factors.
On that basis, the loss allowance as at September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019 was
determined as follows:

With respect to the Company’s other financial assets and due to its long standing business
relationships with these counterparties and after giving due consideration to their strong
financial standing, management does not expect non-performance by these counter parties
on their obligations to the Company. Accordingly, the credit risk is minimal.
(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated
with financial liabilities.
The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of

37.2 Fair value estimation
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. In estimating
the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company 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. The different levels for fair value
estimation used by the Company have been explained 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).
The following table presents the Company’s non financial asset that are measured at fair
value at September 30, 2020:

There were no transfers between Levels 1 and 2 & Levels 2 and 3 during the period and there
were no changes in valuation techniques during the periods.
Valuation techniques used to measure level 2 assets
The fair value of these assets is determined by an independent professionally qualified valuer.
Latest valuation of these assets was carried out on September 30, 2020. Level 2 fair value of
biological assets has been determined using a replacement cost approach, whereby, current
cost of similar livestock in the international market has been adjusted for transportation costs
to arrive at fair value.
37.3 Fair values of financial assets and liabilities
The carrying values of all financial assets and liabilities reflected in the financial statements
approximate their fair values. Fair value is determined on the basis of objective evidence at
each reporting date.

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for
other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of
dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders through repurchase of shares,
issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. Consistent with others in the industry and
the requirements of the lenders, the Company monitors the capital structure on the basis of
gearing ratio.
This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total
borrowings including current and non-current borrowings, as disclosed in note 9. Total
capital is calculated as ‘equity’ as shown in the statement of financial position plus net debt.
The gearing ratio as at September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019 is as follows:

39. Summary of significant events and transactions in the current reporting period
The pandemic COVID-19 that rapidly spread all across the world has not only endangered
human lives but has also adversely impacted the global economy. On March 23, 2020, the
Government of the Punjab, announced measures; temporary lockdown, temporary closure of
businesses, curtailment of intercity movements and cancellation of major events. These measures
were followed by other provinces as well. These measures have resulted in an overall economic
slowdown and disruptions to various businesses. The Government of Pakistan and State Bank of
Pakistan also announced several monetary and fiscal policy measures to mitigate the adverse
economic impacts of the COVID-19.
The lockdown caused disruptions in supply and distribution chain affecting the sales of the products
of the Company. In order to mitigate the effects of COVID-19, the management has adopted
several measures comprising of increase in prices of certain products and reduction in expenses.
The management has also assessed the accounting implications of these developments on these
financial statements, including but not limited to the following areas:
- expected credit losses under IFRS 9, ‘Financial Instruments’;
- the impairment of tangible and intangible assets under IAS 36, ‘Impairment of nonfinancial assets’;
- the net realisable value of inventory under IAS 2, ‘Inventories’;
- Provision for taxation in accordance with IAS 12, ‘Income taxes’
- provisions and contingent liabilities under IAS 37

COVID-19 in these financial statements.
