The Condensed separate interim financial statements for the company for the six months ended 30 June, 2025 comprise those of the Company only.
Basis of preparation
Statement of compliance
The condensed consolidated and separate interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 June, 2025 have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IFRS Accounting Standards), and in the manner required by the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA), 2020 and the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria Act, 2023 . Berger Paints Nigeria Plc has consistently applied the same accounting policies and methods of computation in its condensed consolidated and separate interim financial statements as in its 2024 annual financial statements except for the application of new standards. None of the new standards, interpretations and amendments, effective from 1 January 2025, had a material effect on the condensed consolidated and separate interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The condensed consolidated and separate financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 22 July, 2025.
Basis of measurement
The condensed consolidated and separate interim financial statements for the six months ended 30th June, 2025 have been prepared in accordance with the going concern assumption under the historical cost concept except for the following:
Government grant (recognised as deferred income) measured at fair value.
Inventories: Lower of cost and net realisable value.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.
Fair values
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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. in estimating the vair value of an asset or liability, the group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for leasing transactions that are within the scope of IFRS 16, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in IAS 2 or value in use in IAS 36. Derivatives are
Basis of Consolidation
The Group Condensed interim financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Parent Company and entities controlled by the Company and its subsidiary made up to 30 June 2025. Control is achieved where the investor; (i) has power over the investee entity (ii) is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from the investee entity as a result of its involvement, and (iii) can exercise some power over the investee to affect its returns.
The Company reassesses whether or not it still controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.
The financial statements of subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The accounting policies of subsidiary align with the policies adopted by the Group.
Income and expenses of the subsidiary acquired or disposed off during the period are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners' of the Company.
i Investments in subsidiaries
In the Company's separate financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less any impairment that has been recognised in profit or loss. The cost of an investment in a subsidiary is the aggregate of:
the fair value, at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the company; plus
any costs directly attributable to the purchase of the subsidiary.
Investments in subsidiaries are eliminated on consolidation in the Group financial statements. Management performs an assessment at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication that the Investment in the subsidiaries may be impaired.
(c)ii Receivables from subsidiaries
Receivables from subsidiaries include long term receivables which are deemed to be net investments in subsidiaries.
(c)iii Transactions eliminated on consolidation
All intra-group balances and any gain and losses arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
(c)iv Changes in the Group's ownership interests in existing subsidiary
Changes in the Group's interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and is calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and any non-controlling interests.
All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities of the subsidiary (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred to another category of equity as specified/permitted by applicable IFRSs). The fair value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for subsequent accounting under IFRS 9, or when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or a joint venture.
Functional and presentation currency
These financial statements are presented in Naira, which is the Group's functional currency. All financial information presented in Naira has been rounded to the nearest thousand except where otherwise indicated.
Use of judgment and accounting estimates
In the preparation of these consolidated and separate financial statements, management has made judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Group's accounting policy and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual result may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are
recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
Measurement of fair values
A number of the Group's accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.
When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques.
