Board of Directors External auditor
ENL Limited (‘ENL’) was incorporated in 1944 as a holding company to bring together the interests held by the Espitalier-Noël family.
ENL remains at the outset a family-owned business whose control is exercised by the Espitalier-Noël family. This is reflected in the
composition of the Board of Directors and the executive management of ENL. The family values are thus upheld and infused in
every action undertaken by the group.

Land and buildings are stated at their fair value based on periodic valuations by directors of the group subsequent to valuation carried out by external
valuers, less subsequent depreciation for buildings. The fair value of land and buildings is arrived by using the market value approach.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are carried at
fair value as determined annually by the directors subsequent to the valuation carried out by external valuers which is based on the discounted cash flow
model, residual value approach and open-market basis as appropriate.

Liquidity risk is the risk that the group will encounter difficulties in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by
delivery of cash or another financial asset.
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate

There were no changes in the group’s approach to capital risk management during the year.
The fair value of financial instruments traded on active markets is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. A market is regarded
as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker or regulatory agency and the prices represent actual and
regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. These instruments are included in level 1. Instruments included in level 1 comprise 4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

The group’s objectives when managing capital are: Sensitivity analysis in respect of market risk demonstrates the effect of a change in a key assumption while other assumptions remain unchanged. In

Estimated impairment of goodwill
The group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment in accordance with the accounting policy stated in paragraph(a). These
calculations require the use of estimates.
Impairment of milling rights
Milling rights are tested annually for impairment. Future cash flows expected to be received are projected, taking into account market conditions. The
present value of these cash flows, determined using an appropriate discount rate, is compared with the carrying amount of the intangible assets and,
if lower, the assets are impaired to their present values. Assumptions and estimates are used in assessing the cash flows to be received.

Revenue recognition
The percentage of completion method is utilised to recognise revenue on long-term contracts. Management exercises judgement in calculating the
deferred revenue reserve which is based on the stage of completion.
In addition, management exercises judgement in assessing whether significant risks and rewards have been transferred to the customer before
revenue is recognised.
