EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 2 to annual report on Form 20-F (this “Amendment No.2”) amends our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2015 that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 2, 2016 and amended on May 16, 2016 (the “Form 20-F”). This Amendment No.2 is being filed in response to comments received from the staff of the Commission in order to amend the following sections of the Form 20-F:

 

  · Auditor Report: Due solely to a clerical error, the report of our former independent registered public accounting firm, BDO China Shu Lun Pan Certified Public Accountants LLP (“BDO”) for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014 was inadvertently omitted in the Form 20-F.  We are filing this Amendment No.2 to submit this auditor report of BDO.  

 

  · Note 6, note 22, and note 23 to the financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013, 2014 and 2015 to disclose that the recoverable amount of these assets is the fair value less cost of disposal and provided the corresponding disclosures per IAS 36 paragraph 130.  

 

As required by Rule 12b-15 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, updated certifications of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer are being filed as exhibits to this Amendment No. 2. Other than as described above, this Amendment No. 2 speaks as of the date of the initial filing of the Form 20-F and does not, and does not purport to, amend, update or restate the information in the Form 20-F or reflect any events that have occurred after the Form 20-F was originally filed on May 2, 2016.

Independent Auditor’s Report

 

To: the Board of Directors and Shareholders of KBS Fashion Group Limited

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of KBS Fashion Group Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Company”), as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity and statements of cash flows for the years then ended.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of KBS Fashion Group Limited and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS ("IFRSs")

 

Except as described below, for the year ended December 31, 2015 the Company has consistently adopted all the new and revised standards, amendments and interpretations (collectively IFRSs) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and the IFRS Interpretations Committee (formerly known as "International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee" ("IFRIC")) of the IASB that are effective for financial year beginning on January 1, 2015 in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements throughout the year.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2015, there was no new and revised standards, amendments or interpretations that have become effective during the reporting period.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS ("IFRSs") – continued

 

IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ will supersede IAS 39 ‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’ and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. IFRS 9 covers classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, impairment methodology and hedge accounting.

 

IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ provides a single model for accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. IFRS 15 will supersede IAS 18 ‘Revenue’.

 

The IASB has issued IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ which provides a new model for lease accounting in which all leases, other than short-term and small-ticket-item leases, will be accounted for by the recognition on the balance sheet of a right-to-use asset and a lease liability, and the subsequent amortization of the right-to-use asset over the lease term. IFRS 16 will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 and is expected to have a significant effect on the group’s financial statements, significantly increasing the group’s recognized assets and liabilities and potentially affecting the presentation and timing of recognition of charges in the income statement. Information on the group’s leases currently classified as operating leases, which are not recognized on the balance sheet, is provided in Note 27.

 

Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 (December 2015) —defers the effective date of Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28) until a future date to be determined by the IASB. Early application of the amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 is permitted. Paragraph C1C of IFRS10; Paragraph 45C of IAS 28.

 

Amendments to IAS 12 - Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses (January 2016, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. Early application is permitted. Application is retrospective, with certain optional transition relief available.) — Paragraph 98G.

 

Amendments to IAS 7, Disclosure Initiative (January 2016, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. Early application is permitted. Application is prospective and comparative information is not required for preceding periods when first applied.) —Paragraphs 44A through 44E.

 

The Company does not expect to adopt IFRS 9, IFRS 15, or any of the above amendments/annual improvements before their respective effective dates and has not yet determined its date of adoption for IFRS 16. The Company has not yet completed its evaluation of the effect of adoption of these standards.

 

There are no other standards and interpretations in issue but not yet adopted that the directors anticipate will have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

 

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. The policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

 

First-time adoption of IFRS

 

The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 are the first time the Company has prepared in accordance with IFRS. For periods up to and including the year ended 31 December 2013, the Company prepared its financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Accordingly, the Company has prepared financial statements which comply with IFRS applicable for periods ending on or after December 31, 2014, together with the comparative period data as at and for the year ended December 31, 2013, as described in the accounting policies. In preparing these financial statements, the Company’s opening statement of financial position was prepared as at January 1, 2013 the Company’s date of transition to IFRS.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued

 

The Company’s main business activity was investment and only some administrative expenses and distribution and selling expenses incurred in the Company. There were no substantial differences between the amounts under U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Therefore, no principal adjustments made by the Company in restating its U.S. GAAP statement of financial position as at January 1, 2013 and its previously published U.S. GAAP financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

Basis of preparation

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis and in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The principal accounting policies are set out below.

 

Basis of consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

 

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the Group.

 

All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

 

Foreign currencies

 

The Company’s presentational currency is the United States Dollar.

 

Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the "functional currency").

 

The Group conducts its business predominately in the PRC and hence its functional currency is the Renminbi (RMB).

 

Translation from RMB to USD found place at the following rates:

 

    Period end rates   Average rates
         
December 31, 2013   USD 1.00= RMB 6.0969   USD 1.00=RMB 6.1896  
         
December 31, 2014   USD 1.00= RMB 6.1190   USD 1.00=RMB 6.1448  
         
December 31, 2015   USD 1.00= RMB 6.4936   USD 1.00=RMB 6.2401  

 

The results and financial positions in functional currency are translated into the presentation currency of its intended ultimate legal parent as follows:

 

(1) Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet;

 

(2) Income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions);

(3) Share equity, share premium and dividends are translated at historical exchange rates; and

 

(4) All resulting exchange differences are recognized in foreign currency translation reserve, a separate component of equity.

 

Segment reporting

 

Operating segments, and the amounts of each segment item reported in the financial statements, are identified from the financial information provided regularly to the Group’s most senior executive management for the purposes of allocating resources to, and assessing the performance of, the Group’s various lines of business and geographical locations.

 

Individually material operating segments are not aggregated for financial reporting purposes unless the segments have similar economic characteristics and are similar in respect of the nature of products and services, the nature of production processes, the type or class of customers, the methods used to distribute the products or provide the services, and the nature of the regulatory environment. Operating segments which are not individually material may be aggregated if they share a majority of these criteria. The Group’s three segments are wholesale, retail and subcontracting.

 

Revenue recognition

 

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods sold in the normal course of business, net of discounts and sales related taxes.

 

The Group’s revenue originates (i) from corporate owned stores, (ii) distributors and (iii) the services performed as an original design manufacturer. Revenue from all above categories is recognized when all the following conditions are satisfied:

 

· the Group has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods;

 

· the Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;

 

· the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;

 

· it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Group; and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

  

Specifically, revenue from sale of goods is recognized when the goods are delivered and title has passed.

 

Value added tax (VAT)

 

Output VAT is 17% of product sales and taxable services revenue, according to tax laws. The remaining balance of output VAT, after subtracting the deductible input VAT of the period, is VAT payable.

 

Borrowing costs

 

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 until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

 

All other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

 

F- 13

 

 

KBS Fashion Group Limited

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued

 

Retirement benefit costs

 

Pursuant to the relevant regulations of the PRC government, the Group participates in a local municipal government retirement benefits scheme (the "Scheme"), whereby the subsidiaries located in the PRC are required to contribute a certain percentage of the basic salaries of its employees to the Scheme to fund their retirement benefits. The local municipal government undertakes to assume the retirement benefits obligations of all existing and future retired employees of the subsidiaries located in the PRC. The only obligation of the Group with respect to the Scheme is to pay the on-going required contributions under the Scheme mentioned above. Contributions under the Scheme are charged to the profit or loss as incurred. There are no provisions under the Scheme whereby forfeited contributions may be used to reduce future contributions. These plans are considered defined contribution plans. The Group has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions after its payment of the fixed contributions into the national pension schemes. Contributions to national pension schemes are recognized as an expense in the period in which the related service is performed.

 

Taxation

 

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

 

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

 

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized 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 taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

 

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with 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. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

 

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period 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 assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued

 

Taxation – continued

 

Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

 

Store pre-opening cost

 

Store pre-opening cost was the start-up activity costs incurred prior to opening a new store, mainly including leasing, leasehold improvements, payroll and supplies. The accounting policies for leasing and leasehold improvements were as below. Other store pre-opening costs were directly charged to expenses when occurred.

 

Leasing

 

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

 

Leasehold improvements

 

Leasehold improvements, principally comprising costs of office buildings and shops renovation, are held for administrative and selling purposes. Leasehold improvements are initially measured at cost and amortized systematically over its useful life.

 

Property, plant and equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment ("PPE") including buildings held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes other than construction in progress are stated at cost less subsequent accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

 

Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment other than construction in progress over their estimated useful lives and after taking into account of their estimated residual value, using the straight-line method.

 

Construction in progress includes property, plant and equipment in the course of construction for production or for its own use purposes. Construction in progress is carried at cost less any recognized impairment loss. Construction in progress is classified to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

 

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in profit or loss in the period in which the item is de-recognized.

 

The Group as lessor

 

Rental income from operating leases is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

Leasehold land

 

When a lease includes both land and building elements, the Group assesses the classification of each element as a finance or an operating lease separately based on the assessment as to whether substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of each element have been transferred to the Group. Specifically, the minimum lease payments (including any lump-sum upfront payments) are allocated between the land and the building elements in proportion to the relative fair values of the leasehold interests in the land element and building element of the lease at the inception of the lease.

 

To the extent the allocation of the lease payments can be made reliably, interest in leasehold land that is accounted for as an operating lease is presented as "prepaid lease payments" in the consolidated statement of financial position and is amortized over the lease term on a straight-line basis.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costs of inventories are determined using the weighted average method. Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.

 

Financial instruments

 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized on the consolidated statements of financial position when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.

 

Financial assets

 

The Group's financial assets are classified as receivables.

 

Effective interest method

 

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

 

Interest income is recognized on an effective interest basis for debt instruments.

 

Receivables

 

Receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Receivables (including trade and other receivables, related parties receivables, and cash and cash equivalents) are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment (see accounting policy on impairment loss on receivables below).

Impairments of receivables

 

Receivables are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of the reporting period. Receivables are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the receivables, the estimated future cash flows of the receivables have been affected.

 

Objective evidence of impairment could include:

 

· significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty;

 

· default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

 

· it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganization.

 

For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade and other receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Group's past experience of collecting payments, and increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period, observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

 

An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, and is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate.

 

The carrying amount of the receivables is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with exception of trade and other receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. Changes in carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit or loss. When a trade and other receivable are considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.

 

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment losses was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition

Financial liabilities and equity

 

Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by a group entity are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

 

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities.

 

Effective interest method

 

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

 

Interest expense is recognized on an effective interest basis.

 

Financial liabilities

 

Financial liabilities including trade and other payables, related parties payables and short-term loans are subsequently measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest method.

Equity instruments issued by the group entities are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

 

De-recognition

 

Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire or, the financial assets are transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets. On de-recognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss.

 

Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss.

 

Subsidies prepaid to distributors

 

Subsidies were paid to major distributors for compensating their rental expenses. Such subsidies would vest to distributors when they met the sales targets predetermined by the Company. Subsidies prepaid to distributors were recognized when payments were made and amortized over the agreement term on a straight-line basis in selling expenses.

Capital and Reserves

 

Share capital represents the nominal value of shares that have been issued by the Group. Share capital is determined using the nominal value of shares that have been issued.

 

Retained profits include all current and prior period results as determined in the combined statement of comprehensive income.

 

Foreign currency translation reserve arising on the translation are included in the currency translation reserve.

 

In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations of PRC, the subsidiaries of the Group established in PRC are required to transfer 10% of its annual statutory net profit (after offsetting any prior years’ losses) to the statutory reserve. When the balance of such reserve reaches 50% of the subsidiary’s share capital, any further transfer of its annual statutory net profit is optional. Such reserve may be used to offset accumulated losses or to increase the registered capital of the subsidiary subject to the approval of the relevant authorities. However, except for offsetting prior years’ losses, such statutory reserve must be maintained at a minimum of 25% of the share capital after such usage. The statutory reserves are not available for dividend distribution to the shareholders.

 

All transactions with owners of the Group are recorded separately within equity.

 

Earnings per share

 

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing income attributable to holders of common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted into common shares. Potential dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS in loss periods as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to exercise judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies and requires the use of accounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The following estimates that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are disclosed below:

5. SIGNIFICANT MANAGEMENT JUDGMENT IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Allowance for Bad and Doubtful debts

 

Allowances for bad and doubtful debts are based on an assessment of the recoverability of trade and other receivables. Allowances are applied to trade and other receivables where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the balances may not be collectible. The identification of bad and doubtful debts requires the use of judgment and estimates, where the expected outcome is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact carrying value of trade and other receivables and doubtful debt expenses in the period in which such estimate has been charged.

 

Impairment Losses

 

Impairment losses are based on an assessment of the investment or long lived assets’ ability to generate future cash flows when there is evidence that these assets may be impaired. The calculation of the amount of impairment loss are based on estimates made by management when applying broad accounting principles governing the accounting for these assets. The determination of these estimates requires judgment by management. The final outcome may differ from the original estimates made by management, which may impact the carrying value of the assets which management has determined to be impaired and charged to the Company’s profit loss during the period.

 

Income Tax

 

The Group has exposure to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. Significant judgment is involved in determining the Group’s provision for income taxes. There are certain transactions and computations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognizes liabilities for expected tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recognized, such differences will impact the income tax and differed tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. The carrying amount of the Group’s income tax payable as at December 31, 2015 and 2014 amounted to $2,401,742 and $3,056,079 respectively.

 

6. KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

 

In the application of the Group's accounting policies, which are described in Note 4, management is required to make estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

 

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets within the next financial year.

 

Depreciation of building, machinery and equipment

 

As described in Note 4, the Group reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. The cost of building, machinery and equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the assets' estimated useful lives. Management estimates the useful lives of these buildings, machinery and equipment to be within 5 to 20 years. These are the common life expectancies applied in the same industry. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological developments could impact the economic useful lives and the residual values of these assets, therefore future depreciation charges could be revised.

6. KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY – continued

 

Fair value of warrants

 

The fair value of warrants was determined using a binomial-lattice model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including price volatility of the underlying stock. Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the estimate of fair value of the warrants and the Company’s results of operations could be impacted. This model is dependent upon several variables such as the instrument's expected term, expected strike price, expected risk-free interest rate over the expected instrument term, the expected dividend yield rate over the expected instrument term, and the expected volatility of the Company’s stock price over the expected term. The expected term represents the period of time that the instruments granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected strike price is based upon a weighted average probability analysis of the strike price changes expected during the term as a result of the down round protection.  The risk-free rates are based on U.S. Treasury securities with similar maturities as the expected terms of the options at the date of valuation.  Expected dividend yield is based on historical trends.  The Company measures volatility using the volatility rates of market index.

 

Impairment of non-financial assets

 

Property, plant and equipment are tested for impairment whenever there is any objective evidence or indication that these assets may be impaired.

 

For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. If this is the case, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating-unit (“CGU”) to which the asset belongs.

 

If the recoverable amount of the asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount.

 

The difference between the carrying amount and recoverable amount is recognized as an impairment loss in the income statement, unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case, such impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

 

An impairment loss for an asset other than goodwill is reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. The carrying amount of this asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

 

A reversal of impairment loss for an asset other than goodwill is recognized in the income statement, unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case, such reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recognized impairment losses of $1,317,295 and $1,248,039 for its prepayments for acquisition of land use rights and the related prepayments for construction on such land, respectively. The impairment reflects the current reduction in the value of the investment as a result of the delay in time to complete the construction projects and delay in procurement of legal certificates that would lead to the assets being put into service that would give rise to expected future profitability which, at December 31, 2015, has been temporarily postponed beyond the next operating period. The impairment losses charged to the prepayments has brought the carrying values to their respective recoverable amount in its fair value less costs to sell.

 

For the prepayment for acquisition of land use rights, the Company provided an estimate of its fair value based on the market value substitution rule. The estimated fair value belongs to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because the input is determined through quoted prices of similar assets without an actively quoted market. Using the market approach, the Company compares the price of the land use right that the Company intended to acquire with the price of similar land use rights in the same geographical area, adjusted by factors such as price index, frequency of actual transactions conducted, environmental conditions, etc. Significant assumptions used in this estimation include the ability to legally obtain such land use rights, the usage of land as industrial use, the date of transaction at year end, etc. As a result, the Company provided an estimate in the amount of $5,154,034. Finally, the fair value is reduced by estimated costs to sell which include, but not limited to, legal costs, stamp duty, similar transaction tax, etc. in the amount of $379,971. The net value is then compared to the carrying value, and the difference is recorded as impairment loss in the amount of $1,317,295.

 

For the prepayment for construction, the Company provided an estimate of its fair value based on the time value approach. The estimated fair value belongs to Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the input is not easily observable. Using this approach, the Company calculates the time value of money of the amount prepaid based on the Company’s weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) in order to arrive at its fair value. The Company uses this approach to determine its recoverable amount because such prepayments are not readily resalable, and the ability to realize this amount is contingent upon the Company’s ability to successfully acquire the land use right as mentioned above. Significant assumption used in this estimation include using the WACC, which is comprised of the Company’s metrics of return of equity, return of debt, the relevant weights of the returns of equity and debt, and tax rate, in determining the fair value. As a result, the Company provided an estimate in the amount of $7,160,523. Since this asset is not resalable, the company estimated costs to sell for this asset in the amount of $0. The net value is then compared to the carrying value, and the difference is recorded as impairment loss in the amount of $1,248,039.

On November 20, 2010, Hongri Fujian entered into an agreement with a third party, Anqing Zhongfang Construction and Installation Co., Ltd., for the construction of the new plant in Anhui at a consideration of $17,826,251. In 2012, Kaixin Anhui made a prepayment of $6,363,853 for the second phase of the project. In 2013, Kaixin Anhui made another prepayment of $9,747,897 for the second phase of the project. The amount of $16,401,778 was recognized in Construction in progress.

 

In 2014, Kaixin Anhui made another prepayment of $15,525,413 for the second and third phase of the project, and an amount of $6,537,016 was recognized in construction in progress.

 

In 2015, an amount of $110,041 was recognized in construction in progress, which was subsequently recognized as fixed asset along with the completion of the second phase of the project. The total amount transferred to fixed assets from construction in progress amounted to $22,960,220.

 

The third phase of the project is related to the construction of a building. The construction site is located on a piece of land whose land use right was to be acquired by the Company. Due to reasons as set forth in note 23, the anticipated completion date of the project is expected to be delayed and, in the worst case, may be terminated. Accordingly, management provided a provision of impairment loss against the carrying value of such prepayment. The net carrying amount represents the fair value less cost to sell. The detail of estimation of such provision is explained in note 6.

 

As at December 31, 2015, the carrying amount of the prepayment for construction of new plant is as follows:

As of December 31, 2015, the transaction has not been completed yet due to disputes between the original owner of the land and the government regarding the compensation for vacating the premises. In relation to this dispute, the Company expected that the project would be delayed or, in the worst case, be terminated. Accordingly, the Company provided a provision of impairment loss against the carrying value for such prepayment. The net carrying amount represents the fair value less cost to sell. The detail estimation of such provision is explained in note 6.

31. WARRANT LIABILITIES

 

On November 1, 2012, the Company sold 5,000,000 Units at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit generating gross proceeds of $50,000,000 in the Public Offering. Each Unit consisted of one share of common stock of the Company and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock of the Company (“Redeemable Warrants”). Each Redeemable Warrant entitled the holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 which would commence on the later of either the completion of an initial Acquisition Transaction or October 24, 2013, and would expire five years from the completion date of an initial Acquisition Transaction, provided that there is an effective registration statement covering the shares of common stock underlying the Redeemable Warrants. The Company is entitled to redeem the Redeemable Warrants at a price of $0.01 per Redeemable Warrant upon providing 30 days’ notice, subject to the last sale price of the common stock was at a minimum of $17.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period (“30-Day Trading Period”) that ended on the third day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given, provided that there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of common stock underlying such Redeemable Warrants commencing ten days prior to the 30-Day Trading Period and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption. The Company is required to use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement covering the Redeemable Warrants. However, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities if a registration statement is not effective at the time of exercise. Additionally, in the event that a registration statement is not effective at the time of exercise, the holder of such Redeemable Warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such Redeemable Warrant for cash and in no event (whether in the case of a registration statement not being effective or otherwise) will the Company be required to net cash settle the Redeemable Warrant exercise.

 

Simultaneously with the consummation of the Public Offering, the Company consummated a Private Placement for the sale of 337,750 Placement Units to its Founders at a price of $10.00 per share, generating total proceeds of $3,377,500. The Placement Units are identical to the Units sold in the Public Offering except that the warrants included in the Placement Units (i) were not redeemable by the Company and (ii) may be exercised for cash, or on a cashless basis, so long as they are held by the initial purchaser or any of its permitted transferees. Additionally, the Placement Units have been placed in escrow and the purchasers have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Placement Units, including the underlying securities (except to certain permitted transferees) until 30 days following the completion of an initial Acquisition Transaction. The securities held in the escrow account will only be released prior to the end of the escrow period if following the initial Acquisition Transaction, the Company consummates a subsequent transaction that results in all stockholders having a right to exchange their shares for cash or other consideration.

 

The Company granted the underwriter in the Public Offering a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 750,000 Units solely to cover over-allotments, if any. On November 7, 2012, the underwriters exercised a portion of their option and the Company sold an additional 550,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit generating gross proceeds of $5,500,000. In addition, the Company sold an additional 30,250 Private Placement Units generating gross proceeds of $302,500.

Balance – January 26, 2012 (inception)     -  
Correction of an error     3,200,223  
Issuance of warrants as part of Units on November 7, 2012     322,884

Change in fair value     (11,978 )
Balance – December 31, 2015     3,409  

 

The fair value of warrants was determined using a binomial-lattice model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including price volatility of the underlying stock. Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the estimate of fair value of the warrants and the Company’s results of operations could be impacted. This model is dependent upon several variables such as the instrument's expected term, expected strike price, expected risk-free interest rate over the expected instrument term, the expected dividend yield rate over the expected instrument term, and the expected volatility of the Company’s stock price over the expected term. The expected term represents the period of time that the instruments granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected strike price is based upon a weighted average probability analysis of the strike price changes expected during the term as a result of the down round protection. The risk-free rates are based on U.S. Treasury securities with similar maturities as the expected terms of the options at the date of valuation. Expected dividend yield is based on historical trends. The Company measures volatility using the volatility rates of market index.

 

The inputs to the model were as follows:

 

    As at December 31,  
    2015     2014     2013  
Stock price   $ 2.80     $ 4.25     $ 10.20  
Dividend yield     N/A       N/A       N/A  
Risk-free rate     1.57 %     1.54 %     1.75 %
Expected term (in years)     3.58       4.58       5.0  
Expected volatility     24.7 %     16.5 %     20.5 %

 

At December 31, 2015, there were 5,918,000 unexpired warrants outstanding.

34. RISK MANAGEMENT

 

1. Capital risk

 

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximizing the return to owners through the optimization of the debt and equity balance. The Group's overall strategy remains unchanged during the year.

 

The capital structure of the Group consisted of borrowings net of bank balances and cash, and equity attributable to owners of the Company comprising issued share capital and various reserves.

 

The directors of the Company review the capital structure regularly. As part of this review, the Group considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital, and will balance its overall capital through the payment of dividends, new share issues as well as the issue of new debt or the redemption of existing debt.

 

The Group monitors capital using the Gearing Ratio, which is net debt divided by total equity. Net debt represents borrowings less cash and cash equivalents.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries are not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

 

    December 31, 2015     December 31, 2014  
Total borrowing     -       -  
Less: cash and cash equivalents     (21,214,080 )     (20,604,582 )

2. Financial risk

 

Financial risk management objectives and policies

 

The Group's major financial instruments include trade and other receivables, related parties receivables, cash and cash equivalents, trade and other payables, related parties payables and short-term loans. Details of these financial instruments are disclosed in the respective notes. The risks associated with these financial instruments include credit risk, market risk (interest rate risk and currency risk) and liquidity risk. The policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. The management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.

 

3. Market risk

 

(i) Foreign currency risk

 

While our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, substantially all of our consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and expenses are denominated in RMB. Substantially all of our assets are denominated in RMB. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the RMB. If the RMB depreciates against the U.S. dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our U.S. dollar financial statements will decline. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any resulting translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included in determining other comprehensive income, a component of equity. An average appreciation (depreciation) of the RMB against the U.S. dollar of (6)% would increase (decrease) our comprehensive income by $(6.0) million based on our outstanding revenues, costs and expenses, assets and liabilities denominated in RMB as of December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2015, our accumulated other comprehensive loss was $(1.8) million. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.

 

(ii) Interest rate risk

 

We deposit surplus funds with Chinese banks earning daily interest. We do not invest in any instruments for trading purposes. Most of our outstanding debt instruments carry fixed rates of interest. Our operations generally are not directly sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates and we currently do not have any long-term debt outstanding. Management monitors the banks’ prime rates in conjunction with our cash requirements to determine the appropriate level of debt balances relative to other sources of funds. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to interest rate risk.

 

Credit risk

 

As at December 31, 2015, the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Group due to failure to perform an obligation by the counterparties is arising from the carrying amount of the respective recognised financial assets as stated in the consolidated statement of financial position.

 

In order to minimize the credit risk, the management of the Group has delegated a team responsible for determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at the end of each reporting period to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the directors of the Group consider that the Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.

 

F- 39

 

 

KBS Fashion Group Limited

Notes to consolidated financial statements

 

34. RISK MANAGEMENT – continued

 

The Group has concentration of credit risk on the Group’s trade receivables. The outstanding balance of the five largest customers represented approximately 40% of the trade receivables of the Group at December 31, 2014 (2014: 68%). In order to minimize the credit risk, management continuously monitors the level of exposure to ensure that follow-up actions and/or corrective actions are taken promptly to lower the risk exposure or to recover overdue balances.

 

Liquidity risk

 

In the management of the liquidity risk, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and bank balances deemed adequate by the management to finance the Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The management monitors the utilisation of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.

 

Liquidity tables

 

The following tables detail the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities as at December 31, 2015 based on agreed repayment terms. The tables have been drawn up based on undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The tables include both interest and principal cash flows.

Fair value

 

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities is determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis.

 

The directors of the Company consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortized cost approximate their fair values.
