  1. FRS 8: OPERATING SEGMENTS

  2. IFRS 8 / FRS 8 • EFFECTIVE beging on or after 1/7/2009. • SUPERSEDEFRS 114 (2004) Segment Reporting • Set out requirements for disclosure of info about Entity’s (i) Operating segments (ii) Products & services (iii) Geographical areas it operates (iv) Major customers

  3. FASB (US) & IASB IFRS 8 – Outcome of their joint short-term project for converging actg stds , reducing differences, via considerg each stds to adopt high quality finl reportg solutions: Achieves convergence with SFAS 131 requirements Specifically , IASB’s considern of FASB Stat. No. 131(1997): Segments of an Enterprise and Related Info andIAS 14(1997): Segment Reporting

  4. IFRS 8: Financial Reportg Req. • For entity to report finl and descriptive info abt its reportable segment • Reportable segments: Operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet specified criteria. • Operating segments: Components of entity which Chief Operatg dec. maker regularly evaluated their separate finl info to make dec abt resources allocation and in perform. assessment. • Financial Info: Required to be reported on the same basis as is used internally for evaluating operatg segment perform. and in deciding resource allocatn

  5. Continue….Reporting of Operating Seg Entity required to report (1)Measure of operating segment (i) P&L (ii) Assets (iii) Liabilities (iv) Particular Income & Expenses items (if these info regularly provided to Chief Operatg dec mkr) (2) Reconciliatnof total reportable segment (i) Revenues, (ii) P&L (iii) Assets & Liabilities (iv) Other items disclosed for reportable seg that corresponding amt in finl stat

  6. Continue…Reporting Products and Services and Geographical Segments • To report (i) Revenues from its Products or Services (or groups of similar products & services) (ii) Abt countries it earns rev and hold assets (iii) Major customers {Regardless whether info used by mgt in mkg operatg decs) FRS 8 x requires to report info x prepared for internal use if necessary info x available and cost to develop excessive

  7. Continue…Report Determination of Operatg Seg • Entity to provide descriptive info abt det of: (i) Operatg seg, (ii) Products & services of seg (iii) Differences bet measure. used in reportg seg & finl stat (iv) Changes in measure of segment amt from period to period

  8. Changes from FRS 114 (2004)…IDENTIFICATION OF SEGMENTS (1) • FRS 114 (2004) required identification of 2 sets of segments based on related: (i) Products & Services (ii) Geographical Areas • FRS 8 – Reported seg info to be based on info of the components used by mgt to make dec on operatg matters – Identify opertg seg on basis of internal report regularly reviewed by Chief Opertg dec mkr for resource allocatn and perform assessmt.

  9. Continue… (2) • FRS 114 (2004) ~ Reportable seg ltd to those which earn rev from sales to xtrnal customers , x requires vertically integrated operatns as separate seg. • FRS 8 ~ An operatg seg of an entity that sells primarily or xclusively to other operatg seg of similar entity is an opertg seg if the entity is managed this way

  10. Continue…MEASUREMENT OF SEGMENTS (1) • FRS 114 (2004) ~ To be prepared in conformity with actg policies adopted for preparg and presentg finl info for CFS • FRS 8 ~ Amt reported for each opertg seg item to be the measure reported to the Chief Opertg dec for resources allocatn and perform assessment purposes

  11. Continue… • FRS 114 (2004) defined seg rev, expense, result, assets and liabilities • FRS 8 ~ x define these terms BUT requires explanation how seg P&L, Assets, Liab are measured for each seg

  12. Continue….DISCLOSURE • FRS 114 (2004) ~ To disclose specified items about its primary seg (Dominant source & nature of entity’s risks and returns govern the det of PRIMARY SEGMENT reportg format whether bus seg or geographical areas ) ; IAS 14 Para 27…. Primary seg is bus seg (secondary geographical) if risks and rates of return affected by both differences in products & services and geographical areas ~ “matrix approach” evidenced wrt mgt of entity and internal reportg to BOD and COO ; Otherwise to det risks & returns related more to which one • FRS 8 ~ To disclose (a) Factors used to identify opertg seg, includg basis of orgn (whether mgt organises entity wrt differences in products & services, geographical areas, regulatory envi., combinatn of factors or aggregatn of seg) (b) Types of products and services from which each reportable seg derives its rev

  13. Continue…. • FRS 114 (2004) ~ X require disclosure of interest income and expense • FRS 8 ~ Report (i) Specified info abt each reportable seg, if specified amt reviewed or regularly provided to COO in the measure of seg P&L. (ii) Separate interest rev and interest expense for each reportable seg unless majority of seg rev from interest and COO relies primarily on net interest rev for resource alloctn and perform. assessmt.

  14. Continue….. • FRS 114 (2004) ~ Required the disclosure of 2ndary info for either industry or geographical segments to supplement info given for primary seg. • FRS 8 ~ Including entity with 1 reportable seg , to DISCLOSE as a whole info abt entity’s products & services, geographical areas and major customers , regardless whether these info x part of seg disclosure

  15. CORE PRINCIPLE..PARA 1 To enable users of f/s to evaluate nature and finl effects of entity’s bus ] activities and economic environments

  16. SCOPE ….PARA 2 - 4 Para 2 ~ FRS 8 shall apply to: (a) Separate or Indv. Finl stat of an entity whose • Debt & Eq instru traded in public mkt (include domestic, foreign and local and regional over the counter mkt) • Files, in process of filling its f/s to SC or other regulatory org for purpose of issuing instruments to mkt

  17. Continue…. (b) the CFS of grp with a parent: • as in (a) Para 3 ~ Entity x required to comply to FRS chooses to disclose info abt its segment(s) x comply to FRS 8 x describe info as seg info Para 4 ~ F/S with CFS and separate f/s of parent, seg info only required in CFS

  18. Operatg segments • Para 5 ~ An operatg seg is a component of an entity : (i) Engages in bus actv which it may earn rev and incur expenses e.g. start- up operatn (is an opertg seg where rev yet to be earned). Also include rev & exp. from transactn with other component of same entity, (ii) Operatg results regularly reviewd by CO dec mkr for resource alloctn & perform assess and (iii)Discrete info available (sep finl stat of component is produced)

  19. Continue… Para 6 ~ Not every part of an entity necessarily an operatg seg . Eg ~ Corporate HQ or some functional dept x earn revenue and if earn only incidental to the activities of entity, HENCE X opertg seg INCLUDING POST NYMENT BENEFITS PLANS

  20. Continue…. • Para 7 ~ Chief Operatg dec mkr identifies a functn to allocate resources and assess perform of operatg seg of entity… x necessarily mgr with specific title. OFTEN, CEO, COO and include GROUP OF EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS or OTHERS.

  21. Continue…. • Para 8 ~ Many identify operatg seg based on Para 5 ….but some produce reports of bus activities presented in variety of ways…If CO uses > 1 seg info, other factors may identify a single set of components as constituting opertg segs includg: (a) Nature of bus activities of each component, (b) Existence of mgrs responsible for them and (c) Info presented to BOD

  22. Continue Para 9 ~ Term Segment mgr …identifies functn x specific tirtle…Directly attrb & maintains regulr contact with CO dec mkr to discuss operatg activities, finl results, forecasts or plans for seg, CO dec mkr can be seg mgr for some opertg seg…..1 mgr can be seg mgr for > 1 opertg segment…Set of entity’s component mgd by 1 seg mgr, constitutes opertg segment

  23. Para 10…. • Matrix form of org….Eg Some mgrs responsible for diff product & service lines worldwide, others specific geographical areas. CO dec mkr regularly reviews both…In this situation entity to determine set of components constitutes opertg segs in reference to core principle.

  24. Reportable seg Entity to report separately info abt each opertg seg : • As identified in accordance to Para 5-10 or aggregatn of 2 or > based on Para 12, and • Exceed quantitative threshold of Para 13 Para 14-19 specify situatns for which separate info abt opertg seg to be reported

  25. Para 12…Aggregatn Criteria • Opertg segments with similar economic characteristics likely’ve similar long-term finl perform. Eg. Similar Ave. Gross Margins. • 2 OR > OPERTG SEG MAY BE AGGREGATED PROVIDED similar eco. character. and the segments are similar wrt: (a) nature of products & services; (b) nature of prodn process; (c) type or class of customer for product & services; (d) methods used to distribute products or provide services; and (e) regulatory environment, eg bankg, insurance, public utilities

  26. Para 13…Quantitative thresholds Entity to report separately info abt opertg seg. if meet following quantitative thresholds: • Its reported rev, including sales to external customers & interseg sales or transfers, is 10% or > of combined rev, internal and external, of all opertg seg • Absolute amt of reported P&L is 10% or > of the greater, in absolute amt of (i) Combined P&L of ALL opertg seg that x report loss, and (ii) Combined reported loss of all operatg segments that reported loss (c) Its assets are 10% or > of the combined assets of all operatg segments

  27. Other situantns which require separate info abt opertg seg • Para 14 ~ Reportable seg to constitutes combinatn of operatg segments x meet quantitative thresholds info provided they share similar econ character and majority of aspects of Para 12 • Para 15 ~ If total external rev reported by opertg segs < 75% of entity’s rev, addtl operatg segments to be identified as reportable seg (even if x meet criteria Para 13) until at least 75% entity’s rev included in reportable seg

  28. Continue • Para 16 ~ Info of other bus activ and opertg segments x reportable seg to be combined and disclosed in ‘all other segments’ category separately from reconciling items required by Para 28. • Para 17 ~ If Mgt judged reportable seg in the immediately preceding period is of continuing significance, in current period shall continue report it info separately even x meet Para 13 (quantitative thresholds)

  29. Continue • Para 18 ~ Operating segment becomes reportable segment in current period….For comparative purposes, need to restate segment data of prior period to reflect newly reportable segment as separate seg, even if previously x meet Para 13 requirement • Para 19 ~ If the number of reportable segments have reached 10 (in consideration of Para 13-18), entity shall consider whether a practical limit has been reached, Athough Std has made x specific limit of it…as seg info may become too detailed.

  30. Disclosure… Para 20 -24 • General Info (as discussed earlier) • Info abt P&L, Assets Liab (as discussed earlier) and if the following included (or not) in measure of seg P&L reviewed by ( otherwise regularly provided to) CO Rev from external users • Rev from transactn with other opertg segments • Interest rev • Interest expense • Depn and amortisatn • Material items of Income and Expense Para 86 FRS 101 • Entity’s interest in P&L of associates and JV wrt equity method • Income Tax Expense or Income • Material Non-Cash items other than depreciation and amortisatn

  32. Continue… • Measure of seg P&L, assets and liabilities shall based on method used by CO dec ..IF CO used > than 1 measure, used measurement principles most consistent with those used in measuring corresponding amt in entity’s f/s • To provide explanation of measurement used for seg P&L, assets and liabilities. Min to disclose: (a) Basis of actg (b) Nature of differences of segments P&L and entity’s PBT or Income and discontinued operations (If x apparent from Para 28 reconciliation disclosure). Eg Differences in actg policies and policies for allocation of centrally incurred costs necessary to understand reported seg info (c) Nature of differences in measurement of entity’s assets, liabilities and segments assets and liabilities (d) Nature of any changes from prior periods in the measurement methods of segment P&L and the effect on segment P&L (e) Nature and effect of asymmetrical allocations to reportable segments

  33. Continue…Para 28 Reconciliations Entity to provide reconciliation of : • Total reportable segments’ revenues to the entity’s revenue • Total reportable segments’ measures of P&L to entity’s PBT (tax income) and discontinued operations. Tax expense allocated to report. seg, reconcile with entity’s PAT • Total of reportable segments’ assets and liabilities to entity’s assets and liabilities respectively • Total of the reportable segments amts for every other material item of info disclosed compare with entity’s corresponding amt All material reconciling items shall be separately identified and described. Eg. Amt of each material adj. needed to reconcile report. seg P&L to entity’s P&L arising from diff actg policies ….TO BE SEPARATELY IDENTIFIED AND DESCRIBED

  34.

  35. Entity-wide disclosuresPara 31 -34 • Entity bus actv x organised on basis of differences in related products & services or geographical areas…may report revenues from broad range of essentially different products or services or similar…or report revenues from customers in different geographical areas or similar

  36. Info abt products and services • Report rev from external customers for each product and service or similar grp of them unless x info available or such info costly

  37. Info abt geographical areas • To report on geographical info the followings (unless x available or costly) : • Rev from external customers based on their respective geographical locatn (if material disclosed separately) & basis for attributing such rev • Non- current assets other than finl instru, deferred tax assets , post-Nyment benefits assets and rights arising under insurance contracts on based on their respective geographical locatn (if material disclosed separately) Amt reported to based on finl info used to produce entity’s f/s

  38. Info about major customers • Entity to provide extent of its reliance on its major customers • If rev from transactns with 1 external customer amt 10% or > of entity’s rev, TO DISCLOSE THE FACT, (i) Total amt of rev from each such customer (ii) Identity of the segment or segments reportg the revenues • Entity X disclose identity of a major customer or amt of revenues each segment reports from that customer • Single customer ~ a grp of entities known to a reporting entity under common ctrl AND govt and entities known to the reportg entity to be under the ctrl of that govt

  39. Take home notes • Operatg segments ~ Reportable Segment (Para Para 11-19 ) • Reportable segment ~ to report separate info • CO dec mkr by function allocates resources and make assess of seg perform • Seg mgr to identify operatg seg • Disclosure • Measurement
