Ann: Full Year Statutory Accounts, page-29

Hello Boundary Rider.
I wondered when someone would point that out.
It adds some credit to your posts.
The Impaired Allowance is indeed because of Kolosori being lost to Axiom. It also includes WG since that lease has run out and currently is under reapplication too.

Like you said it an accounting practice:

"Impairment is an accounting principle that describes a permanent reduction in the value of a company's asset, normally a fixed asset. When testing for impairment, the total profit, cash flow or other benefit that's expected to be generated by a specific asset is periodically compared with that same assets book value. If it's found that the book value of the asset exceeds the cash flow or benefit of the asset, the difference between the two is written off and the value of the asset declines on the company's balance sheet."

It therefore reflects that we have lost the Kolosori Asset at present. This will revert back on financial sheets if we get back Kolosori.

But I guess it is easier to run around like a chook that has lost its head saying we have a $22m loss and shouting that the sky is falling than to actually analyse what the financial statements say.

Cheers​
