BONPRC Reg. No. 0004 SEC Accreditation No. 0001-FR-4

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Century Pacific Food, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Group") which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity and consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and of its financial performance, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRSs).

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with Philippines Standards on Auditing (PSAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants in the Philippines (Code of Ethics), together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in the Philippines, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

We identified the following key audit matters:

Key Audit Matters Our audit performed and responses thereon

Acquisition of Cindena Resources Limited (CRLJ, Century (Shanghai) Trading Co. Ltd. (CST) and Century International (China) Co. Ltd. (CIC)

On December 28, 2016, the Group acquired 100% interest in CRL, CST, CIC (collectively, "Century China Group of Companies"). The total consideration paid is P127.33 million.

In accordance with PFRS 3, Business Combinations, the Group must recognize identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value at acquisition dates. The difference of the purchase price over the determined fair values is to be recognized as either goodwill or gain on bargain purchase.

Accounting for these acquisitions involve Management's judgment and estimations for the determination of the purchase price allocation, including the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at acquisition date.

The Group's disclosures of the business combination and the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at acquisition date are set out in Notes 5, 6 and 13 to the consolidated financial statements.

Deloitte.

Our audit procedures included:

• For each of the acquisitions, we performed detailed understanding and review of the substance of transactions by obtaining a thorough understanding of terms and conditions stipulated in the share purchase agreements, equity transfer agreements, minutes of board of directors meeting on the approval of the acquisitions and other relevant information;

• We reviewed the reconciliation of the purchase price to the proof of payment and purchase price allocation prepared by the Group's Management;

• We evaluated the accounting treatment for the acquisitions used by the Management and tested all material accounting entries recorded in connection with the acquisitions to determine whether the financial accounting and reporting thereof were appropriate;

• We. assessed the competency of the Group's external appraiser in relation to the valuation report used by the Group's management to determine the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at acquisition date;

• We challenged the assumptions, methodologies, data and external valuation reports used by the Group to determine the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at acquisition dates; and

• We reviewed the difference of the purchase price over the determined fair values and assessed the reasonableness of the recognized goodwill as prepared by the Management.

Based on our audit procedures, we noted that the purchase price allocation and accounting treatment for acquisitions are appropriate and have been performed in accordance with PFRS 3, Business Combinations, including the disclosures thereon. We also noted that Management's assumptions, methodologies, data and external valuation report considered and applied in the purchase price allocation in arriving at the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the fair values of identified intangible assets and the resulting goodwill, are considered reasonable.

Key Audit Matters

Goodwill Impairment

Goodwill has been recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position resulting from acquisitions of the Group. Under PFRS, the Group is required to annually test the goodwill for impairment. This annual impairment test was significant to our audit because the aggregate balance of goodwill amounting to P2.95 billion is material to the consolidated financial statements and represents 14.81 % of the consolidated total assets of the Group as at December 31, 2016.

Under PFRS 3 and PAS 36, the Group is required to annually test the goodwill for impairment. Management conducts annual impairment test to assess the recoverability of the carrying values of goodwill. This annual impairment test involves a number of key sensitive judgments made in determining the inputs used in the assessment process.

The carrying values of goodwill as at December 31, 2016 are disclosed in Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements.

Deloitte.

Our audit performed and responses thereon

Our audit procedures were focused on performing a detailed understanding of the Management's assessment process and challenging the key sensitive judgments applied as follows:

• We reviewed the Group's position on the impairment of goodwill, including information about the Group's project plan, business outlook, revenue potential and market penetration assessment of the subsidiaries to which the goodwill relates to; and

• We assessed and challenged the reasonableness of the Group's position on the impairment of goodwill including consideration of various factors such as historical business performance, current year dev~lopments, current risk evaluations, business plans, outlook, revenue potential and other market considerations.

Based on our audit procedures, we have noted that the Group's assessment and the judgments used are reasonable .

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Navarr0Am~2r&Co.

Key Audit Matters

Inventory Valuation and Obsolescence

In accordance with PAS 2, Inventories, the Group is required to recognize inventories at the lower of cost and net realizable value. As at December 31, 2016, the Group held total inventories of P7 .53 billion which represents 37. 77% of its consolidated total assets.

The Group's prov1s1oning methodology for inventory losses is dependent on the type of inventory. For each type of inventory, the estimated prov1s1on for inventory loss is determined based on the results of physical inspection, Group management's evaluation and patterned historical information.

This is a key audit matter as the Group is in a food manufacturing business and the inventories in various business segments require different judgments in determining inventory losses and write downs.

The Group's disclosures regarding its inventories are set out in Notes 6 and 11 to the consolidated financial statements.

Our audit performed and responses thereon

Our audit approach included both controls testing and substantive procedures as follows:

• We tested the design and implementation of controls and the operating effectiveness of controls associated with existence and conditions of inventories by attending a number of inventory counts throughout the year in all significant locations (including warehouses, depots, production plants and cold storage rooms);

• We obtained a detailed understanding of the Group's inventory provisioning policy, with specific consideration given to aged inventories, damaged goods and slow moving items;

• We reviewed reasonableness of inventory provisioning with reference to historical information, inventory write-offs during the year in relation to stock loss or other inventory adjustments as prepared by Management;

• We tested the accuracy and completeness of aging of inventories; and

• We also evaluated and challenged management's judgments applied in determining the values of provision for inventory losses.

Based on the results of our audit work, the provisions for inventory losses are within an acceptable range.

Information Other than the Consolidated Financial Statements and Auditors' Report Thereon

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Form 20-IS (Definitive Information Statement), SEC Form 17-A and Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2016, but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The SEC Form 20-IS (Definitive Information Statement), SEC Form 17-A and Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2016 are expected to be available to us after the date of this auditors' report.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover these other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or with our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

Deloitte. IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

NavarroAmr.,~r&Co.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with PFRSs, and for such internal control as Management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, Management is responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless Management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with PSAs wi ll always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with PSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by Management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of Management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Deloitte. 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

Navarr0Am~2r&Co.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Statement of Compliance

The consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries (the "Group") have been prepared in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS), which includes all applicable PFRS, Philippine Accounting Standards (PAS), and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), Philippine Interpretations Committee (PIC) and Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC) as approved by the Financial Reporting Standards Council (FRSC) and the Board of Accountancy (BOA), and adopted by the SEC.

Basis of Preparation and Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for:

• certain financial instruments carried at amortized cost; • inventories carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value (NRV); and

• retirement benefit obligation recognized as the net of the present value of the obligation and fair value of plan assets.

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 1

Fair value is the price that will 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 fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liabil ity if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these consolidated financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions that are with in the scope of PFRS 2, Share-based Payment, leasing transactions that are within the scope of PAS 17, Leases, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realizable value in PAS 2, Inventories or value in use in PAS 36, Impairment of Assets.

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into Levels 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

• Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

• Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

4. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Adoption of New and Revised Accounting Standards Effective in 2016

The Group adopted all new and revised accounting standards as at December 31, 2016. These new and revised standards were assessed to have no significant impact on the Company's financial statements for the current year.

New Accounting Standards Effective after the Reporting Period Ended December 31, 2016

The Group will adopt PFRS 9 once become effective.

PFRS 9, Financial Instruments

This standard consists of the following three phases:

Phase 1: Classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities

With respect to the classification and measurement under this standard, all recognized financial assets that are currently within the scope of PAS 39 will be subsequently measured at either amortized cost or fair value. Specifically :

A debt instrument that (i) is held with in a business model whose objective is to collect the contractua l cash flows and (ii) has contractual cash flows that are so lely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding must be measured at amortized cost (net of any write done for impairment), unless the asset is designated at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) under the fair value option.

1111111 111111111111111111!1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 8

A debt instrument that (i) is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and (ii) has contractual terms that give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, must be measured at fair va lue through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI), unless the asset is designated at FVTPL under the fair value option.

All other debt instruments must be measured at FVTPL.

All equity investments are to be measured in the statement of financial position at fair value, with gains and losses recognized in profit or loss except that if an equity investment is not held for trading, an irrevocable election can be made at initial recognition to measure the investment at FVTOCI, with dividend income recognized in profit or loss.

This standard also contains requirements for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities and derecognition requirements. One major change from PAS 39 relates to the presentation of changes in the fair value of a financial liability designated as at FVTPL attributable to changes in the credit risk for the liability. Under this standard, such changes are presented in other comprehensive income, unless the presentation of the effect of the change in the liability credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair va lue attributable to a financial liabil ity's credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Under PAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as FVTPL is presented in profit or loss.

Based on the Group's assessment, the classification and measurement of the Group's financial assets at amortized cost and financial liabilities will be the same under both PFRS 9 and PAS 39.

Phase 2: Impairment methodology

The impairment model under this standard reflects expected credit losses, as opposed to incurred credit losses under PAS 39. Under the impairment approach of this standard, it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before credit losses are recognized. Instead, an entity always accounts for expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit losses should be updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition.

The future adoption of the standard will result in initial measurement of financial assets at amortized cost, net of expected credit losses.

Phase 3: Hedge accounting

The general hedge accounting requirements for this standard retain the three types of hedge accounting mechanism in PAS 39. However, greater flexibility has been introduced to the types of transactions eligible for hedge accounting, specifically broadening the types of instruments that qualify as hedging instruments and the types of risk components of non-financial items that are eligible for hedge accounting. In addition, the effectiveness test has been overhauled and replaced with the principle of economic relationships. Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness is no longer required. Far more disclosure requirements about an entity's risk management activities have been introduced.

The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Earlier application is permitted.

The Group's initial assessment of PFRS 9's potential impact to its consolidated financial statements provides that it would change the classification of financial assets but it will not affect the measurement of its current types of financial assets. The Group wil l continue its assessment and will finalize the same upon the effective date of the new standard.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 9

PFRS 16, Leases

This standard specifies how a PFRS reporter will recognize, measure, present and disclose leases. It provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Lessors continue to classify leases as operating or finance, with PFRS 16's approach to lessor accounting substantially unchanged from its predecessor, PAS 17.

The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Earlier application is not permitted, until PFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, is adopted.

Future adoption of this standard will result in recognition of right-of-use of asset and lease liability and additional disclosure in the Group's consolidated financial statements.

Amendment to PAS 7, Disclosure Initiative

The amendment clarify that entities shall provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities.

The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. Earlier application is permitted.

Future adoption of this amendment will not have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to PAS 12, Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealized Losses

The amendments clarify the following aspects:

• Unrealized losses on debt instruments measured at fair value and measured at cost for tax purposes give rise to a deductible temporary difference regardless of whether the debt instrument's holder expects to recover the carrying amount of the debt instrument by sale or by use.

• The carrying amount of an asset does not limit the estimation of probable future taxable profits.

• Estimates for future taxable profits exclude tax deductions resulting from the reversal of deductible temporary differences.

• An entity assesses a deferred tax asset in combination with other deferred tax assets. Where tax law restricts the utilization of tax losses, an entity would assess a deferred tax asset in combination with other deferred tax assets of the same type.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. Earlier application is permitted.

Future adoption of these amendments will not have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financia l statements.

Amendments to PFRS 2, Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions

The amendments to PFRS 2 include:

a. Accounting for cash-settled share-based payment transactions that contain a performance condition. The amendment added guidance that introduces accounting requirements for cash-settled share-based payments that follows the same approach as used for equity-settled share-based payments.

b. Classification of share-based payment transactions with net settlement features. The amendment has introduced an exception into PFRS 2 so that a share-based payment where the entity settles the share-based payment arrangement net is classified as equity-settled in its entirety provided the share-based payment would have been classified as equity-settled had it not included the net settlement feature.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 10

c. Accounting for modifications of share-based payment transactions from cash-settled to equity-settled. The amendment has introduced the following clarifications:

• On modifications, the original liability recognized in respect of the cash-settled share-based payment is derecognized and the equity-settled share-based payment is recognized at the modification date fair value to the extent services have been rendered up to the modification date.

• Any difference between the carrying amount of the liability as at the modification date and the amount recognized in equity at the same date would be recognized in profit and loss immediately.

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with earlier application permitted.

The Group's initial assessment of potential impact of adopting PFRS 2 to its consolidated financial statements in the future provides that its current classification and measurement of share-based payment transactions will not be significantly affected. The Group will continue its assessment and will finalize the same upon effective date of standard.

New Accounting Standards Effective After the Reporting Period Ended December 31, 2016 -Adopted by Financial Reporting Standards Council (FRSC) but pending publication in the Official Gazette by the Board of Accountancy

The Group will adopt the following once become effective.

Amendments to PFRS 4, Applying PFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' with PFRS 4 'Insurance Contracts'

The amendments provide two options for entities that issue insurance contracts within the scope of PFRS 4:

• an option that permits entities to reclassify, from profit or loss to other comprehensive income, some of the income or expenses arising from designated financial assets; this is the so-called overlay approach; and

• an optional temporary exemption from applying PFRS 9 for entities whose predominant activity is issuing contracts within the scope of PFRS 4; this is the so-called deferral approach.

The application of both approaches is optional and an entity is permitted to stop applying them before the new insurance contracts standard is applied. An entity applies the deferral approach for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018.

Future adoption of the amendments will not have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements as the Group does not issue insurance contracts.

Annual Improvements to PFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle

The annual improvements address the following issues:

Amendments to PFRS 1, First- time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards

The amendments include the deletion of short-term exemptions stated in the appendix of PFRS 1, because they have now served their intended purpose. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with earlier application permitted.

Future adoption of these amendments will not have an impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements as the Group is no longer a first time adopter of PFRS.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 11

Amendments to PFRS 12, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

The amendments clarify the scope of the standard by specifying that the disclosure requirements in the standard, except for those disclosures needed in the summarized financial for subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, apply to an entity's interests that are classified as held for sale, as held for distribution or as discontinued operations in accordance with PFRS 5, Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017 with earl ier application permitted.

The Group will continue its assessment and will finalize the same upon the effective date of standard.

Amendments to PAS 28, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures

The amendments clarify that the election to measure at FVTPL an investment in an associate or a joint venture that is held by an entity that is a venture capital organization, or other qualifying entity, is available for each investment in an associate or joint venture on an investment-by-investment basis, upon initial recognition.

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with earlier application permitted.

Future adoption of the amendments will not have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to PAS 40, Investment Property - Transfers of Investment Property

The amendments in Transfers of Investment Property (Amendments to IAS 40) are:

• Stating that an entity shall transfer a property to, or from, investment property when, and only when, there is evidence of a change in use. A change of use occurs if property meets, or ceases to meet, the definition of investment property. A change in management's intentions for the use of a property by itself does not constitute evidence of a change in use.

• The list of evidence in paragraph 57(a) - (d) was designated as non-exhaustive list of examples instead of the previous exhaustive list

The amendments are effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Earlier application is permitted.

Future adoption of these amendments will not have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements as the Group does not have an investment property.

Philippine Interpretations IFRIC 22, Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration

The Interpretation covers foreign currency transactions when an entity recognizes a non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising from the payment or receipt of advance consideration before the entity recognizes the related asset, expense or income. It does not apply when an entity measures the related asset, expense or income on initial recognition at fair value or at the fair value of the consideration received or paid at a date other than the date of initial recognition of the non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability.

The interpretation is effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Earlier application is permitted.

Future adoption of these interpretations will not have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 12

PFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The standard combines, enhances, and replaces specific guidance on recognizing revenue with a single standards. An entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

It defines a new five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts.

• Identify the contract(s) with a customer;

• Identify the performance obligations in the contract;

• Determine the transaction price;

• Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

• Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Application of this guidance will depend on the facts and circumstances present in a contract with a customer and will require the exercise of judgment.

The standard is mandatory for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Earlier application is permitted.

The Group's initial assessment of potential impact of adopting PFRS 15 to its consolidated financia l statements in the future provides that its current revenue recognition policy will not be significantly affected. The Group wi ll continue its assessment and will finalize the same upon the effective date of the new standard.

PIC Q&A No. 2016-04, Application of PFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" on Sale of Residential Properties under Pre-completion Contracts

This interpretation applies to the accounting for revenue from the sa le of a residential property unit under pre-completion stage (i.e., construction is on-going or has not yet commenced) by a real estate developer that enters into a Contract to Sel l (CTS) with a buyer, and the developer has determined that the contract is within the scope of PFRS 15 by satisfying all the criteria in paragraph 9 of PFRS 15.

This interpretation does not deal with the accounting for other aspects of real estate sales such as variable considerations, financing components, commissions and other contract costs, timing of sales of completed properties, etc.

Future adoption of this interpretation will not have an impact on the Group's conso lidated financial statements as the Group's revenues do not arise from sale of residential properties.

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financia l statements of the Parent Company and all subsidiaries it controls. Control is achieved when the Parent Company has power over the investee, is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

The Parent Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of these three elements of control. When the Parent Company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally.

The Parent Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Parent Company's voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including :

• the size of the Parent Company's holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders;

• potential voting rights held by the Parent Company, other vote holders or other parties;

llllllllll~IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 13

• rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and

• any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Parent Company has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders' meetings.

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Parent Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Parent Company loses control of the subsidiary. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the Parent Company, using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with the Group's accounting policies. All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash f lows relating to transactions between members of the Group are elim inated in full on consolidation. Unrealized gains and losses are eliminated.

Changes in the Group's ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group's interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Parent Company.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss and is calcu lated 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 recognized 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 PFRSs). 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 PAS 39, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or a joint venture.

Business Combination

Common control business combinations are excluded from the scope of PFRS 3, Business Combinations. However, there are no specific rules under existing PFRS which prescribe how such transactions shall be accounted for. In August 2011, the PIC issued Q&A No. 2011-02, PFRS 3.2, Common Control Business Combinations, to provide guidance in accounting for common control business combinations in order to minimize diversity in the current practices until further guidance is provided by the IASB.

The consensus in Q&A No. 2011-02 provides that common control business combinations shall be accounted for using either (a) the pooling of interests method, or (b) the acquisition method in accordance with PFRS 3. However, where the acquisition method of accounting is selected, the transaction must have commercial substance from the perspective of the reporting entity.

In accordance with PIC Q&A No. 2011-02, the Group's acquisitions of businesses under common control are accounted for using either the acquisition method or the pooling of interest method, depending on the specific circumstances of the acquisition.

1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 14

Acquisition method

Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method . The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to the former owners of the acqu iree and the equity interest issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition related costs are generally recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognized at their fair va lue, except that:

• deferred tax assets or l iabilities, and assets or liabil ities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognized and measured in accordance with PAS 12, Income Taxes and PAS 19, Employee Benefits, respect ively;

• liabi lit ies and equ ity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree or share-based payment arrangement of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with PFRS 2, Share-based Payment at the acquisition date; and

• assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with PFRS 5, Non-current assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations are measured in accordance with that standard.

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-contro lling interest in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acqu irer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the net of the acqu isition date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabil ities assumed exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree (if any) is recognized immediately in profit or loss as bargain purchase gain.

When the consideration transferred by the Group in a business combination includes assets or liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition-date fair value and included as part of the consideration transferred in a business combination. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are adjusted retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the measurement period (which cannot exceed one year from acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date.

The subsequent accounting for the changes in fair value of the contingent consideration that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments depends on how the contingent consideration is classified. Contingent consideration that is classified as equ ity is not measured at subsequent reporting dates and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration that is classified as an asset or a liability is remeasured at subsequent reporting dates in accordance with PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, or PAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, as appropriate, with the corresponding gain or loss being recognized in profit or loss.

1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 111111111111111111111111111111111 15

Pooling of interest method

Common control business combinations are accounted for using the "pooling of interests method".

The pooling of interests method is generally considered to involve the following:

• The assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected in the consolidated financial statements at their carrying amounts. No adjustments are made to reflect fair values, or recognize any new assets or liabilities, at the date of the combination that otherwise would have been done under the acquisition method. The only adjustments that are made are those adjustments to harmonize accounting policies;

• No 'new' goodwill is recognized as a result of the combination. The only goodwill that is recognized is any existing goodwill relating to either of the combining entities. Any difference between the consideration paid or transferred and the equity 'acquired' is reflected within equity;

• The consolidated income statement reflects the results of the combining entities for the full year, irrespective of when the combination took place; and

• Comparatives are presented as if the entities had always been combined.

The Group applied the pooling of interest method when it acquired GTC and SMDC as these companies remained to be wholly owned subsidiaries at the time of the acquisition. In 2016, the Group applied the same method in accounting for its acquisition of CRL as there is no commercial substance relating to the acquisition.

Goodwill

Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost being the excess of the cost of business combination over the interest in the net fair value of the acquirer's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. Subsequently, goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

For purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units (CGU) that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

A CGU to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognized directly in profit or loss in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.

On disposal of the relevant CGU, the amount attributable to goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.

Financial Assets

Initial recognition

Financial assets are recognized in the Group's consolidated financial statements when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are recognized initially at fair value. Transaction costs are included in the initial measurement of the Group's financial assets, except for investments classified at FVTPL.

Classification and subsequent measurement

Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets at FVTPL, held-to-maturity (HTM) investments, available-for-sale (AFS) financial assets and loans and receivables. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.

Currently, the Group's financial assets consist of HTM investments and loans and receivables.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 16

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial recognition, loans and receivables are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment and are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the debt instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Interest income is recognized by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial.

The Group's loans and receivables consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables (excluding advances to suppliers which are applied against future billings, advances to officers and employees which are subject to liquidation, and statutory receivables), due from related parties, refundable security deposits and deposit on utilities.

HTM investments

HTM investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity dates that the Group has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. Subsequent to initial recognition, HTM investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any impairment, with revenue recognized on an effective yield basis.

HTM investments are classified in the consolidated statements of financial position as current when the investment is expected to mature within 12 months after the reporting date. Otherwise, HTM investments are classified as non-current.

Impairment of financia l assets

Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.

Objective evidence of impairment

For all financial assets carried at amortized cost, objective evidence of impairment could include:

• significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counter party; • breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; • it has become probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial

re-organization;

• the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;

• the lender, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower's financial difficulty, granting to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider; or

• observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial assets in the Group.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 17

For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables cou ld include the Group's past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period as well as observable changes in national or local economic cond itions that correlate with default on receivables.

Financial assets carried at amortized cost

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables and HTM investments have been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred, discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate, i.e., the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition .

The carrying amount of financial assets carried at amortized cost is reduced directly by the impairment loss with the exception of trade receivables, wherein the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When trade receivables are considered uncollectible, these are written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit or loss.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss shall be reversed. The reversal shall not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized at the date the impairment is reversed. The amount of the reversal shall be recognized in profit or loss.

Derecoqnition of financial assets

The Group derecognizes financial assets only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire; or when the Group transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risk and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial asset and the consideration received or receivable is recognized in profit or loss.

If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Group recognizes its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Group retains substantially all the risk and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Group continues to recognize the financial asset and also recognizes a collateralized borrowing for the proceeds received.

Inventories

Inventories are initially measured at cost. Subsequently, inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The costs of inventories are calculated using the first-in, first-out method. Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. The costs of inventories are calculated as follows:

Raw materials Work-in-process Finished goods Finished goods (CPAVI)

Moving average Weighted average Weighted average Moving average

Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.

1111111111111111111111111111111111111 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 111111111111111 111111 18

When the net realizable value of the inventories is lower than the cost, the Group provides for an allowance for the decline in the value of the inventory and recognizes the write-down as an expense in profit or loss. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realizable va lue, is recognized as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognized as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

Provision for inventory losses is established for slow moving, obsolete, defective and damaged inventories based on physical inspection and management evaluation. Inventories and its related provision for impairment are written off when the Group has determined that the related inventory is already obsolete and damaged. Write-offs represent the release of previously recorded provision from the allowance account and credited to the related inventory account fol lowing the disposal of the inventories. Destruction of the obsolete and damaged inventories is made in the presence of regulatory agencies.

Reversals of previously recorded impairment provisions are credited in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income based on the result of Management's current statement, considering available facts and circumstances, including but not limited to net realizable value at the time of disposal.

When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognized as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognized.

Spare parts with useful lives of one year or less are classified as inventories and recognized as expense as they are consumed.

Prepayments

Prepayments represent expenses not yet incurred but already paid in cash. Prepayments are initially recorded as assets and measured at the amount of cash paid. Subsequently, these are charged to profit or loss as they are consumed in operations or expire with the passage of time.

Prepayments are classified in the consol idated statements of financial position as current assets when the cost of goods or services related to the prepayments are expected to be incurred within one year or the Group's normal operating cycle, whichever is longer. Otherwise, prepayments are classified as non-current assets.

Biological Assets

Biological assets or agricultural produce are recognized only when the Group controls the assets as a result of past events, it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the assets will flow to the Group and the cost of the assets can be measured reliably.

Biological assets are required to be measured on initial recognition and at the end of each reporting period at fair value less costs to sell, unless fair value cannot be measured reliably. Accordingly, the Management shall exercise its judgment in determining the best estimate of fair value.

After exerting its best effort in determining the fair value of the Group's biological assets, Management believes that the fair value of its biological assets cannot be measured reliably since the market determined prices or values are not avai lable and other methods of reasonably estimating fair value are determined to be clearly unreliable. Thus, the Group measures biological assets at its cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Biological assets of the Group are classified as consumable biological assets which include fish in farms. The Group manages the growth of fish which will subsequently be used in production upon harvest.

Biological assets are recognized as expense when consumed.

1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 19

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises:

its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates; and

any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by Management.

The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labor, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use, the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located.

Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalized as part of that equipment.

At the end of each reporting period, item of property, plant and equipment measured are carried at cost less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labor, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use, the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located, and borrowing costs on qualifying assets.

Subsequent expenditures relating to an item of property, plant and equipment that have already been recognized are added to the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits, in excess of the originally assessed standard of performance of the existing asset, will flow to the Group. All other subsequent expenditures are recognized as expenses in the period in which those are incurred.

Major spare parts and stand-by equipment qualify as property, plant and equipment when the Group expects to use them for more than one year. Similarly, if the spare parts and servicing equipment can be used only in connection with an item of property, plant and equipment, they are accounted for as property, plant and equipment.

Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method, other than construction in progress, based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Buildings Building improvements Plant, machinery and equipment Transportation and delivery equipment Office furniture, fixtures and equipment Laboratory tools and equipment Land improvements Computer equipment

15 - 35 years 5 - 15 years 2 - 40 years 5 - 9 years 2 - 5 years

1 - 15 years 5 - 15 years 2 - 5 years

Properties in the course of construction for production, rental, administrative purposes or for purposes not yet determined, are carried at cost less any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees and capitalized borrowing costs in the case of qualifying assets. Depreciation commences at the time the assets are ready for their intended use.

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the improvements useful life of 5 years or when shorter, the term of the relevant lease.

Spare parts and properties in the course of construction for production or for purposes not yet determined are carried at cost, less any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees and for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalized in accordance with the Group's accounting policy. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences at the time the assets are ready for their intended use.

1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 20

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in the profit or loss.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and the amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis .

Intangible assets, such as trademarks, with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognized separately from goodwill are initially recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are reported at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately.

An intangible asset is derecognized on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.

Impairment of Tangible and Intangible Assets

At the end of the reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that any of its tangible assets may have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the asset belongs. When reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, assets are also allocated to individual CGUs, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of CGUs for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, such as trademarks, and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use. In assessing value-in-use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized as an expense in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognized in respect of CGUs are allocated to the assets in the unit on a pro-rata basis.

Impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at the end of each reporting period for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized . A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized as income.

1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 21

Financial Liabilities and Equity Instruments

Classification as debt or equity

Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and equity instrument.

Financial liabilities

Initial recognition

Financial liabil ities are recognized in the Group's consolidated financial statements when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Transaction costs are included in the initial measurement of the Group's financial liabilities except for debt instruments classified at FVTPL.

The Group's financial liabilities measured at amortized cost consist mainly of trade and other payables, borrowings, due to related parties and other current liabilities.

Subsequent measurement

Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized on an effective yield basis.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts through the expected life of the financial liability or, when appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Since the Group does not have financial liabilities classified at FVTPL, all financia l liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized on an effective yield basis.

Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated statements of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

A right to offset must be available today rather than being contingent on a future event and must be exercisable by any of the counterparties, both in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy.

Derecognition

Financial liabilities are derecognized by the Group when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expired . The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liabil ity derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss.

Equity instruments

An equ ity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by Group are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Share capital

Share capital are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction from the proceeds, net of tax.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 22

Share premium

Share premium represents the excess over the par-value received on subscriptions for the Group's shares which is represented in equity. When the shares are sold at a premium, the difference between the proceeds and the par value is credited to the share premium.

Direct costs incurred related to equity issuance are chargeable to share premium account. If additional paid-in capital is not sufficient, the excess is charged against retained earnings.

Currency translation adjustment

Currency translation adjustment represents the exchange differences resulting from translating the financial position and results of operations of GTC and financial position of CIC, CRL and CST, whose functional currencies differ from the functional currency of the Group.

Retained earnings

Retained earnings represent accumulated profits and losses attributable to equity holders of the Group after deducting dividends declared. Retained earnings may also include the effect of changes in accounting policy as may be required by the standard's transitional provisions.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation, either legal or constructive, as a result of a past event, and it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation through an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits, and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.

The amount of the provision recognized is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of each reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.

If it is no longer probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision shou ld be reversed.

Share-based Payments

Equity-settled share-based payments

Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date.

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments to employees is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group's estimate of equ ity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognized in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the equity-settled employee benefits reserve.

lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll 23

Equity-settled share-based payment transactions with other parties are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received, except when the fair value cannot be estimated reliably, in which case they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, measured at the date the entity obtains the goods or the counterparty renders the service.

Employee Benefits

Short-term benefits

The Group recognizes a liability net of amounts already paid and an expense for services rendered by employees during the accounting period that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the reporting period. A liability is also recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided.

Post-employment benefits

The Group classifies its retirement benefit as defined benefit plans. Under the defined benefit plans, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is reflected immediately in the consolidated statements of financial position with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss. Past service cost is recognized in profit or loss in the period of a plan amendment. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset.

Retirement benefit costs are categorized as follows:

• Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on curtailments and settlements).

• Net interest expense or income.

• Remeasurement.

The Group presents the first two components of retirement benefit costs in profit or loss. Curtailment gains and losses are accounted for as past service costs.

The retirement benefit obligation recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position represents the actual deficit or surplus in the Group's defined benefit plans. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans. For defined benefit retirement plans, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be measured reliably. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 24

Sale of goods

Revenue from the sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts and volume rebates . Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when the goods are delivered and titles have passed, at which all the following conditions are satisfied:

• the Group has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods;

• the Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;

• the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; • it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to

the Group; and • the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured

reliably.

If it is probable that discounts will be granted and the amount can be measured reliably, then the discount is recognized as a reduction of revenue as the sales are recognized.

Service income

Service income is recognized in the accounting periods in which the services are rendered and when it is probable that the economic benefits wi ll flow to the Group and it can be measured reliably.

Royalty income

Royalty income is recognized on an accrual basis in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreement. Royalties determined on a time basis are recognized on a straight-line basis over the period of the agreement. Royalty arrangements that are based on production, sa les and other measures are recognized by reference to the underlying arrangement.

Rental income

Revenue recognition for rental income is disclosed in the Group's policy for leases.

Commission income

Commission income is recognized when earned, based on the terms of the agreement.

Interest income

Interest income is accrued on a time proportion basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset's net carrying amount.

Dividend income

Dividend income from investments is recognized when the shareholders' rights to receive payment have been established, provided that it is probable that the future economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Other income

Other income is income generated outside the normal course of business and is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and it can be measured reliably.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 25

Expense Recognition

Expenses are recognized in profit or loss when decrease in future economic benefit related to a decrease in an asset or an increase in a liability has arisen that can be measured reliably. Expenses are recognized in profit or loss: on the basis of a direct association between the costs incurred and the earning of specific items of income; on the basis of systematic and rational allocation procedures when economic benefits are expected to arise over several accounting periods and the association with income can only be broadly or indirectly determined; or immediately when an expenditure produces no future economic benefits or when, and to the extent that, future economic benefits do not qualify, or cease to qualify, for recognition in the consolidated statements of financial position as an asset.

Expenses in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income are presented using the function of expense method. Costs of sales are expenses incurred that are associated with the goods sold and includes raw materials used, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. Operating expenses are costs attributable to administrative, marketing, selling and other business activities of the Group.

Leases

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

The Group as lessor

Rental income from operating leases is recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to enter into an operating lease are also spread on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Initial direct costs incurred by the Group in negotiating and arranging an operating lease is added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income.

The Group as lessee

Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except when another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognized as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognized as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis, except when another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.

Foreign Currency

Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in currencies other than functional currency of the Group are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the date the fair value was determined. Gains and losses arising on retranslation are included in profit or loss for the year, except for exchange differences arising on non-monetary assets and liabilities when the gains and losses of such non-monetary items are recognized directly in equity. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 26

Exchange differences on monetary items are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise except for:

• Exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings relating to assets under construction for future productive use, which are included in the cost of those assets when they are regarded as adjustments to interest costs on those foreign currency borrowings.

• Exchange differences on transactions entered into in order to hedge certain foreign currency risks.

• Exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur, which are recognized initially in other comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on repayment of the monetary items.

Foreign operations

For the purposes of presenting these consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group's foreign operations are translated into Philippine peso using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period . Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (and attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate).

On the disposal of a foreign operation (i.e. a disposal of the Group's entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, or a partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or an associate that includes a foreign operation of which the retained interest becomes a financial asset), all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation attributable to the owners of the Group are reclassified to profit or loss.

In addition, in relation to a partial disposal of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation that does not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiary, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences are re-attributed to non-controlling interests and are not recognized in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals (i.e. partial disposals of associates or joint arrangements that do not result in the Group losing significant influence or joint control), the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences is reclassified to profit or loss.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed through acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the rate of exchange prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Exchange differences arising from that transaction are recognized in other comprehensive income.

Translation to foreign currency

The separate financial statements of GTC, CIC, CRL and CST whose functional currencies differ from the functional currency of the Group are translated to Philippine peso using the prevailing current exchange rate for the statements of the financial position accounts, except those which are translated at historical costs, and average rate during the period for the statements of comprehensive income accounts. Any resulting difference from the translation is charged to currency translation adjustments in OCI.

llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll 27

Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.

All other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing costs are expensed in full when the amounts are not material.

Related Party Transactions

A related party transaction is a transfer of resources, services or obligations between the Group and a related party, regardless of whether a price is charged.

Parties are considered related if one party has control, joint control, or significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. An entity that is a post-employment benefit plan for the employees of the Group and the key management personnel of the Group are also considered to be related parties .

Upon consolidation, significant intra-group balances are eliminated to reflect the Group's consolidated financial position and performance as a single entity.

Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of current tax expense and deferred tax .

Current tax

The current tax expense is based on taxable profit for the period. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group's current tax expense is calculated using 30% regular corporate income tax (RCIT) rate or 2% minimum corporate income tax (MCIT) rate, whichever is higher. CPSI and CPFPVI use Optional Standard Deduction (OSD), while other subsidiaries use itemized deductions in the computation of their respective taxable income. GTC's frozen tuna loins operation was granted an ITH for a period of three years beginning February 1, 2013. Furthermore, AWI's cold storage facilities which are registered with BOI were granted 100% exemption from corporate income tax for a period of four years beginning March 1, 2016.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax l iabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences, while deferred tax assets are genera lly recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except when the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 28

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Current and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred taxes are recognized as an expense or income in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized outside profit or loss, whether in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized outside profit or loss. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

Earnings per Share

The Group computes its basic earnings per share by dividing profit for the period attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Parent Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, profit for the period attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Parent Company and the weighted average number of shares outstand ing are adjusted for the effects of dilutive potential ordinary shares.

Segment Reporting

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group's other components. All operating segments' operating results are reviewed regularly by the Group's Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to t he segment and assess its performance, and for wh ich discrete financial information is available.

The Group reports separately, information about an operating segment that meets any of the following quantitative thresholds:

• its reported revenue, including both sales to external customers and inter-segment sales or transfers, is 10% or more of the combined revenue, internal and external, of all operating segments, provided that;

• the absolute amount of its reported profit or loss is 10% or more of the greater, in absolute amount, of the combined reported profit of all operating segments that did not report a loss and the combined reported loss of all operating segments that reported a loss; and

• Its assets are 10% or more of the combined assets of all operating segments.

Operating segments that do not meet any of the quantitative thresholds may be considered reportable, and separately disclosed, if Management believes that information about the segment would be useful to users of the consolidated financial statements.

For Management purposes, the Group is currently organized into seven business segments namely: Canned and Processed fish, Canned Meat, Milk, Tuna Export, Coco Water, Packaging and Corporate. These divisions are the basis on which the Group reports its primary segment information.

Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets other than goodwill.

Financial information on segment reporting is presented in Note 7.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 29

Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation, either legal or constructive, as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group wil l be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognized is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of each reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation; its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.

If it is no longer probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision should be reversed.

Onerous contracts

Present obligations arising under onerous contracts are recognized and measured as provisions. An onerous contract is considered to exist when the Group has a contract under which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received from the contract.

Restructuring

A restructuring provision is recognized when the Group has developed a detailed forma l plan for the restructuring and has raised a valid expectation in those affected that it will carry out the restructuring by starting to implement the plan or announcing its main features to those affected by it. The measurement of a restructuring provision includes only the direct expenditures arising from the restructuring, which are those amounts that are both necessarily entailed by the restructuring and not associated with the ongoing activit ies of the entity.

Warranties

Provisions for warranty costs are recognized at the date of sale of the relevant products, at the management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Group's obligation.

Asset retirement obligation

The net present value of legal obligations associated with the retirement of an item of property, plant and equ ipment that resulted from the acquisition, construction or development and the normal operation of property, plant and equipment is recognized in the period in which it is incurred. The retirement obligation is initially measured at the present value of the estimated future dismantlement or restoration cost using current market borrowing rates. Subsequently, the discount is amortized as interest expense.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 30

Contingent liabilities and assets

Contingent liabilities and assets are not recognized because their existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed, unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote.

Contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are only recognized when these are present obligation and can be measured reliably.

Contingent assets are not recognized, but are disclosed only when an inflow of economic benefits is probable. When the realization of income is virtually certain, asset shou ld be recognized.

Events after the Reporting Period

The Group identifies events after the end of each reporting period as those events, both favorable and unfavorable, that occur between the end of the reporting period and the date when the consolidated financial statements are authorized for issue. The consol idated financial statements of the Group are adjusted to reflect those events that provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period. Non-adjusting events after the end of the reporting period are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when material.

6. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the application of the Group's accounting policies, Management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on the historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Critical Judgments in Applying Accounting Policies

The fo llowing are the critical judgments, apart from those involving estimations, that Management has made in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consol idated financial statements.

Determination of functional currency

The Group's consolidated financial statements are presented in Philippine peso, which is also the Group's functional currency. For each entity, the Group determines the functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency.

The results of operations and financial position of GTC, which are measured using US Dollar, and financial position of CIC, CST and CRL, which are measured using Chinese Yuan, were translated into Philippine Peso using the accounting policies in Note 5.

Leases

The evaluation of whether an arrangement contains a lease is based on its substance. An arrangement is, or contains, a lease when the fu lfil lment of the arrangement depends on a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys the right to use the asset.

llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll\111 31

Classification of lease as operating lease

Based on Management evaluation, the lease arrangements entered into by the Group as a lessor are accounted for as operating leases because the lease arrangement will not transfer the ownership of the leased assets upon termination of the lease and it does not provide an option to purchase the asset at a price that is sufficiently lower than the fair value at the date of the option.

HTM investments

Management reviewed the Group's HTM investments in the light of its capital maintenance and liquidity requirements and confirmed its positive intention and ability to hold those assets to maturity. The carrying amount of HTM investments as at December 31, 2016 and 2015 amounted to P12,890,266 and P27,795,460, respectively, as shown in Note 10.

Determination of useful lives of trademarks

Under the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines, the legal life of trademark is 10 years and may be perpetually renewed thereafter for another 10 years. However, considering that the Management does not expect any circumstances or events which will cause it to decide not to renew its trademarks every 10 years, Management has taken the position that the useful lives of its trademarks are indefinite, hence, the related costs are not amortized but subjected to annual impairment testing. Changes in the assumption and circumstances in the future will substantially affect the consolidated financial statements of the Group, particularly the carrying values of these trademarks .

The carrying values of the Group's trademarks as at December 31, 2016 and 2015 are PlOl,474,888 and P40,000,000, respectively, as disclosed in Note 13.

Biological assets

Biological assets are required to be measured on initial recognition and at the end of each reporting period at fair value less costs to sell, unless fair value cannot be measured reliably. Accordingly, the Management shall exercise its judgment in determining the best estimate of fair value.

After exerting its best effort in determining the fair value of the Group's biological assets, the Management believes that the fair value of its biological assets cannot be measured reliably since the market determined prices or values are not avai lable and other methods of reasonably estimating fair value are determined to be clearly unreliable. Accordingly, the Group's biological assets are measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, amounted to P34,817,782 and P31,429,135, respectively, as disclosed in Note 14.

Determination of control and significant influence

Management exercises its judgment in determining whether the Parent Company has control or significant influence over another entity by evaluating the substance of relationship that indicates control or significant influence of the Parent Company over the entities.

The recognition and measurement of the Parent Company's investments over these entities will depend on the result of the judgment made.

As disclosed in Note 3, the Parent Company has a 100% ownership interest and voting rights in GTC, SMDC, AW!, CPAVI, CPS!, CGC, CPFPVI, CRL, CST, and CIC.

1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 111111111111111 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 32

Acquisition of investment in subsidiaries

The Group adopted the acquisition method in acquiring its subsidiaries (except for GTC, SMDC and CRL which the Company used the pooling of interests method). In selecting the acquisition method, the Management considers the involvement of outside parties in the transaction, such as non-controlling interests or other third parties (public ownership in CPFI).The transaction price is likewise arm's length determined based on a third party valuation which provides commercial substance to the transaction. The Management believes that it is appropriate to account said transactions using the acquisition method.

Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of each reporting period that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Estimating useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The useful lives of the Group's assets with definite lives are estimated based on the period over which the assets are expected to be available for use. The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are reviewed periodically and are updated if expectations differ from previous estimates due to physical wear and tear, technical or commercial obsolescence and legal or other limits on the use of the Group's assets. In addition, the estimation of the useful lives is based on the Group's collective assessment of industry practice, internal technical evaluation and experience with similar assets. It is possible, however, that future results of operations could be materially affected by changes in estimates brought about by changes in factors mentioned above. The amounts and timing of recorded expenses for any period would be affected by changes in these factors and circumstances. A reduction in the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment would increase the recognized operating expenses and decrease non-current assets.

As at December 31, 2016 and 2015, the carrying amounts of the Group's property, plant and equipment amounted to P3,945,425,348 and P3,133,942,196, respectively, as disclosed in Note 15. Total accumulated depreciation as at December 31, 2016 and 2015 amounted to Pl, 756,351,655 and Pl,448, 878,570, respectively, as disclosed in Note 15.

Estimating net realizable value of inventories

The net realizable value of inventories represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. The Group determines the estimated selling price based on the recent sale transactions of similar goods with adjustments to reflect any changes in economic conditions since the date the transactions occurred. The Group records provision for excess of cost over net realizable value of inventories. While the Group believes that the estimates are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in the actual experience or significant changes in estimates may materially affect the profit or loss and equity.

Total inventories recognized in the Group's consolidated statements of financial position amounted to P7,528,824,781 and P5,925,978,924 as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as shown in Note 11.

1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 33

Asset impairment

The Group performs an impairment review when certain indicators are present.

Determining the recoverable amounts of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets requires the Group to make estimates and assumptions that can materially affect the consolidated financial statements. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on the Group's financial position and result of operations.

While the Group believes that its assumptions are appropriate and reasonable, significant changes in the assumptions may materially affect the assessment of recoverable values and may lead to future additional impairment charges .

Total carrying amounts of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment as at December 31, 2016 and 2015 are disclosed in Notes 13 and 15, respectively.

As at December 31, 2016 and 2015, Management believes that the recoverable amounts of the Group's property, plant and equipment and intangible assets exceed their carrying amounts, accordingly, no impairment loss was recognized in 2016, 2015 and 2014.

Determining the fair value of financial instruments

The Group carries some of its financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value, which requires extensive use of accounting estimates and judgment. In addition, certain liabilities acquired through debt exchange and restructuring are required to be carried at fair value at the time of the debt exchange and restructuring. While significant components of fair value measurement were determined using verifiable objective evidence, i.e., foreign exchange rates, interest rates, volatility rates, the amount of changes in fair value would differ if the Group utilized different valuation methodology. Any change in fair value of these financial assets and financial liabilities would affect profit or loss and equity.

As at December 31, 2016 and 2015, the fair values of the Group's financial assets amounted to P4,286,008,251 and P4,179,105,015, respectively, as disclosed in Note 34.

Total liabilities measured at fair value amounted to P6,255,609,799 and P5,960,180,843 as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as disclosed in Note 34.

Estimating allowances for doubtful accounts

The Group estimates the allowance for doubtful accounts related to its receivables based on assessment of specific accounts when the Group has information that certain counterparties are unable to meet their financial obligations. In these cases, judgment used was based on the best available facts and circumstances including but not limited to, the length of relationship with the counterparty and the counterparty's current credit status based on credit reports and known market factors. The Group used judgment to record specific reserves for counterparties against amounts due to reduce the expected collectible amounts. These specific reserves are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information received impacts the amounts estimated.

The amounts and timing of recorded expenses for any period would differ if different judgments were made or different estimates were utilized. An increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts would increase the recognized operating expenses and decrease current assets.

Total trade receivables recognized in the Group's consolidated statements of financial position amounted to P3,556,091,143 and P3,370,997,803 as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which is net of the related allowance for doubtful accounts amounting to P122,248,827 and P28,619,597 as at those dates, as shown in Note 9.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 34

Retirement benefit and other post-employment benefits

The determination of the retirement benefit obligation and other post-employment benefits is dependent on the selection of certain assumptions used by actuaries in calculating such amounts. Those assumptions include among others, discount rates, mortality and rates of compensation increase. While the Group believes that the assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in the actual experience or significant changes in the assumptions may materially affect the amount of retirement benefit obligation and other post-employment benefits recognized.

The total retirement benefit expense recognized in 2016, 2015 and 2014 amounted to P34,255,249, P57,822,016 and PlB,082,852, respectively, and retirement benefit obligation as at December 31, 2016 and 2015 amounted to PllB,327,684 and P157,039,771, respectively, as shown in Note 19.

Deferred tax assets

The Group reviews the carrying amounts at the end of each reporting period and reduces deferred tax assets to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax assets to be utilized. However, there is no assurance that the Group will generate sufficient taxable profit to allow all or part of its deferred tax assets to be util ized.

Deferred tax assets recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2016 and 2015 amounted to PllB,001,892 and PSl,725,977, respectively, as disclosed in Note 33.

Provisions

The Group recognized provision for estimated losses relating to uncertainties that are associated with the nature of its business operations amounting to ni l and P7,848,982 as at December 31,2016 and 2015, respectively, as disclosed in Note 18.

Estimating allowance for VAT claims

In 2015, the Group recognized an impairment loss on the amount of input VAT applied with Bureau of Customs (BOC) amounting to P14,466,567, as disclosed in Note 25, of which amount, Pl,442,247 pertains to CPAVI. Impairment loss on input VAT amounting to P5,418,732 was recognized in 2016, as disclosed in Note 12. The amount pertains mainly to CPAVI.

7. SEGMENT INFORMATION

As at December 31, 2016 and 2015, Management believes that there is no objective evidence of impairment on its biological assets carried at cost. Accordingly, no impairment loss was recognized in both years.

19. RETIREMENT BENEFIT OBLIGATION

The Group has set up the Century Pacific Group of Companies Multiemployer Retirement Plan which is a funded, non-contributory and of the defined benefit type which provides a retirement benefit ranging from 100% to 130% of plan salary for every credited service. Benefits are paid in a lump sum upon retirement or separation in accordance with terms of the plan.

Under the existing regulatory framework, Republic Act (RA) No. 7641, requires a provision for retirement pay to qualified private sector employees in the absence of any retirement plan in the entity provided, however, that the employee's retirement benefits under any collective bargaining and other agreements shall not be less than those provided under the law. The law does not require minimum funding of the fund.

The Retirement Plan Trustee, as appointed by the Group in the Trust Agreement executed by the Group and the duly appointed Retirement Plan Trustee, is responsible for the general administration of the retirement plan and the management of the retirement plan.

As at December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Group's retirement fund has investments in various shares of stocks under the stewardship of a reputable bank. All of the Fund's investing decisions are made by the Board of Trustees which is composed of certain officers of the Group. The power to exercise the voting rights rests with the Board of Trustees.

The plan typically exposes the Group to actuarial risks such as: investment risk, interest rate risk, longevity risk and salary risk.

Investment risk

The present value of the defined benefit plan l iability is calculated using a discount rate determined by reference to high quality corporate bond yields; if the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently the plan's investments are in the form of debt instruments of government security bonds, equity instruments and fixed income instruments. Due to the long-term nature of the plan liabilities, the board of the pension fund considers it appropriate that a reasonable portion of the plan assets should be invested in government security bonds.

Interest rate risk

A decrease in the government security bond interest rate will increase the retirement benefit plan obligation.

IIIIIIIIIIII IIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIII IIIII IIIII IIIIIIIIII IIIII IIIIIIIIII IIIII IIIIIIIIIIII IIIII IIII IIIIII II IIII 47

Longevity risk

The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the retirement benefit obligation.

Salary risk

The present value of the defined benefit plan obligation is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the retirement benefit obligation.

The most recent actuarial valuation of plan assets and the present va lue of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by an independent actuary for the year ended December 31, 2016. The present value of the defined benefit obligation and the related current service cost was measured using the Projected Unit Credit Method.

The principal assumptions used for the purpose of the actuarial valuation were as follows:

Valuation at 2016 Valuation at 2015 Valuation at 2014

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the defined benefit obligation has been calculated using the Projected Unit Credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same as that applied in calculating the defined benefit obligation liability recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position.

There was no change in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis from prior years .

*The trade receivables exclude the advances to suppliers, advances to officers and employees, and other statutory receivables as disclosed in Note 9. **The trade and other payables are net of government liabilities, due to employees and officers, and other payables as disclosed in Note 18.

As at December 31, 2016 and 2015, the total advances to suppliers, advances to officers and employees, and other statutory receivables amounted to P486,210,630, P24,040,813 and Pl0,413,506 and P231,522,573, P12,497,052 and P6,293,895, respectively .

Government liabilities, due to employees and officers, and other payables amounted to P98,923,544, P563,642,734, and P205,684,363, and P85,432,108, P48,337,505, and P33,998,943 as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Cash and cash equivalents carrying amounts were considered as their fair value as at December 31, 2016 and 2015. Due from and to related parties were recorded on their carrying amount as at December 31, 2016 and 2015. These related party transactions have maturities of 12 months, hence, their carrying amounts represent their fair values as at December 31, 2016 and 2015.

The fair values of security deposits and deposits on utilities were not determined using discounted cash f lows because there are no available market data similar to the instrument. Management believes that the discount using cash f low ana lysis is not material, hence, the carrying amount is considered its fair value.

Fair values were determined using the fair value hierarchy below:

Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).

Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

As at December 2016 and 2015, the fair values of HTM investments were determined under level 2 criteria which were derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1.

35. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies

The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (which include interest rates risk and foreign currency exchange risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's overall risk management program seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. The policies for managing specific risks are summarized below:

Market risk

Market risk happens when the changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, Interest rates and equity prices will affect the Group's profit or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective and management of this risk are discussed below.

Foreign currency exchange risk

Foreign currency exchange risk arises when an investment's value changes due to movements in currency exchange rate. Foreign exchange risk also arises from future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities that are denominated in a currency that is not the Group's functional currency.

The Group undertakes certain transactions denominated in US Dollar (USD), hence, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise with respect to transactions denominated in such currency. Significant fluctuation in the exchange rates could significantly affect the Group's financial position.

The net carrying amounts of the Group's foreign currency (USD) denominated monetary assets and financial liabilities at the end of each reporting period are as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Trade and other payables

2016

P 153,614,590 1,290,251,175 (862,027,856)

P 581,837,909

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change, based on prior year percentage change in exchange rates in Philippine peso (PHP) rate to US dollar with all other variables held constant, of the Group's income before income tax (due to changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities).

Philippine Peso +/-5.85% P46,972,932

December 31, 2015 Philippine Peso +L-5.23% P30,4301 123

The following table details the Group's sensitivity to a 5.85% increase and decrease in the functional currency of the Group against the US Dollar. The sensitivity rate used in reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel is 5.85% and it represents Management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rate. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the end of the period for a 5.85% change in foreign currency rate. The sensitivity analysis includes all of the Group's foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. A positive number below indicates an increase in profit when the functional currency of the Group strengthens 5.85% against the relevant currency.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 62

For a 5.85% decline of the functional currency of the Group against the relevant cu rrency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit as shown below:

Interest rate risk refers to the possibility that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to change in the market interest rates.

The primary source of the Group's interest rate risk relates to cash and cash equivalents, advances to employees, HTM investments and borrowings. Interest rates are disclosed in Notes 8, 9, 10 and 17.

Cash equivalents are short-term in nature and with the current interest rate level, any variation in the interest will not have a material impact on the profit of the Group.

Borrowings are subject to specified interest rate referenced to the prevailing loan market interest rate. Any variation in the interest will not have a material impact on profit or loss of the Group. The current portion of the borrowings have short-term maturities and fixed interest rates, hence, any variation in the market interest will generally not have an impact on the profit or loss.

HTM investments are carried at amortized cost and bear fixed effective interest rates, hence, any variation in the market interest will generally not have an impact on the profit or loss of the Group.

The Group has no established policy is managing interest rate risk. Management believes that fluctuations on the interest rates wi ll not have significant effect on the Group's financial performance.

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the possibility that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of dealing only with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral, when appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.

The table below presents the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk without taking into account the value of any collatera l obtained:

The Group uses internal ratings to determine the credit quality of its financial assets. These have been mapped to the summary rating below:

High Grade - applies to highly rated financial obligors and strong corporate counterparties.

Satisfactory Grade - applies to financial assets that are performing as expected, including loans and advances to small and medium sized entities and recently established businesses.

Acceptable Grade - applies to counterparties with risk profiles that are subject to closer monitoring and scrutiny with the objective of managing risk and moving accounts to improved rating category.

Low grade - applies to risk that are neither past due nor expected to result in loss but where the Group requires a workout of the relationship unless an early reduction in risk is achievable.

Trade and other receivables, security deposits and deposits on utilities were assessed by Management as standard grade as these are realized within the normal terms.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation.

The Group manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

The following tables detail the Group's remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows, inclusive of principal and interest, of financial liabilities, based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay.

36. CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group's objectives when managing capital are to increase the value of shareholder's investment and maintain high growth by applying free cash flows to selective investments that would further the Group's growth. The Group sets strategies with the objective of establishing a versatile and resourceful financial management and capital structure. The Group's overall strategy remains unchanged from 2015.

The BOD has overall responsibility for monitoring working capital in proportion to risk. Financial analytical reviews are made and reported in the Group's financial reports for the BOD's review on a regular basis. In case financial reviews indicate that the working capital sourced from the Group's own operations may not support future operations of projected capital investments, the Group obtains financial support from its related parties.

The Group's management aims to maintain certain financial ratios that it deems prudent such as debt-to-equity ratio (not to exceed 2.5:1) and current ratio (at least 1.0:1). The Group regularly reviews its financials to ensure the balance between equity and debt is monitored.

In addition, when the Group is able to meet its targeted capital ratios and has a healthy liquidity position, the Group aims to pay dividends to its shareholders of up to 30% of previous year's net income.
