NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Year ended 31 December 2025 3 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (CONT’D) 3.5 Leases (cont’d) Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases of low-value assets and short-term leases. The Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As a lessor At inception or on modification of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices. When the Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease inception whether each lease is a finance lease or an operating lease. To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the case, then the lease is a finance lease; if not, then it is an operating lease. As part of this assessment, the Group considers certain indicators such as whether the lease is for the major part of the economic life of the asset. When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sub-lease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short-term lease to which the Group applies the exemption described above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease. If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, then the Group applies SFRS(I) 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers to allocate the consideration in the contract. The Group applies the derecognition and impairment requirements in SFRS(I) 9 Financial Instruments to the net investment in the lease (see note 3.10(i)). The Group further regularly reviews estimated unguaranteed residual values used in calculating the gross investment in the lease. The Group recognises lease payments received from investment property under operating leases as income on a straight-line basis over the lease term as part of ‘revenue’. 3.6 Financial instruments (i) Recognition and initial measurement Non-derivative financial assets and financial liabilities Trade receivables and debt investments issued are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component) or financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus, or minus, for an item not at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. A trade receivable without a significant financing component is initially measured at the transaction price. However, if the Group has an unconditional right to an amount that differs from the transaction price (e.g. due to the Group’s refund policy), the trade receivable will be initially measured at the amount of that unconditional right.
