NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

LEGEND INTERNET PLC

Audited financial statements For the year ended 31 July 2024

  1. Frequency of reporting

    The entity presents a complete set of financial statements, including comparative information at least annually (i.e., 12 months). The end of the reporting period is 31 July of every year.

  2. Adoption of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs)
    1. New standards, interpretations and amendments issued and effective

      The following revisions to accounting standards and pronouncements that are applicable to the company were issued which are now effective from the annual periods beginning on or after January 1,2024.

      Where IFRSs and IFRIC Interpretations listed below permits, the company has elected not to apply them in the preparation of these financial statements. The full impact of these IFRSs and IFRIC Interpretations is currently being assessed by the company, but none of these pronouncements are expected to result in any material adjustments to the financial statements.

      1. International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules Amendments to IAS 12

        Amendments to IAS 12, which introduce a mandatory exception in IAS 12 from recognising and disclosing deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes. The amendments clarify that IAS 12 applies to income taxes arising from tax law enacted or substantively enacted to implement the Pillar Two Model Rules published by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), including tax law that implements qualified domestic minimum top-up taxes. Such tax legislation, and the income taxes arising from it, are referred to as 'Pillar Two legislation' and 'Pillar Two income taxes', respectively.

        The amendments are effective immediately upon issuance, but certain disclosure requirements are effective later.

        The amendments is not applicable to our entity because we are neither MNE (Multinational Enterprise Entity) nor qualify for the minimum revenue threshold required.

      2. Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback - Amendments to IFRS 16

The amendment to IFRS 16 specifies the requirements that a seller-lessee uses in measuring the lease liability arising in a sale and leaseback transaction, to ensure the seller-lessee does not recognise any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains.

After the commencement date in a sale and leaseback transaction, the seller-lessee applies paragraphs 29 to 35 of IFRS 16 to the right-of-use asset arising from the leaseback and paragraphs 36 to 46 of IFRS 16 to the lease liability arising from the leaseback. In applying paragraphs 36 to 46, the seller-lessee determines 'lease payments' or 'revised lease payments' in such a way that the seller-lessee would not recognise any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use retained by the seller-lessee. Applying these requirements does not prevent the seller-lessee from recognising, in profit or loss, any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of a lease, as required by paragraph 46(a) of IFRS 16. The amendment does not prescribe specific measurement requirements for lease liabilities arising from a leaseback.

The initial measurement of the lease liability arising from a leaseback may result in a seller-lessee determining 'lease payments' that are different from the general definition of lease payments in Appendix A of IFRS 16. The seller-lessee will need to develop and apply an accounting policy that results in information that is relevant and reliable in accordance with IAS 8.

This becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024.

The amendment is not expected to have an impact on the entity's financial statements.
