PPWSA please refer to below justification for the reclassification in presentation that change in the FY 2022 as follow:

In the current year (2023), the unrealised foreign exchange gain and unrealised foreign exchange loss on borrowings have been excluded from finance income and finance cost, respectively, and presented as "Foreign exchange gain/loss - net" in the Statement of Profit or loss, which is different from the presentation in 2022 report wherein those unrealised foreign exchange gain and loss was included in the Finance income and Finance cost, respectively. Thus, for the comparative purpose, the unrealised foreign exchange gain/loss was amended to be presented in net amount in the foreign exchange gain/loss to conform to the current year presentation.

The change in the presentation is to comply with the appropriate accounting standard CIAS 23: Borrowing cost, which resulted in the change in the comparative figures previously presented, as disclosed in Note 30 to the financial statements. The 2022 report will not be reissued since the amount was deemed to be immaterial.

In the current year (2023), balances with national treasury have been reclassified from cash and cash equivalents to trade and other receivables instead to reflect its nature based on CIAS 7: Statement of cash flow. The reason is that the management do not use/collect cash from national treasury for daily usage/operation. In this case, those balances with national treasury do not fall under the definition of cash and cash equivalents as per CIAS 7. The 2022 report will not be reissued since the amount was deemed to be immaterial.
