8 Provisions & Contingencies
Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a
past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle
the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made.

Contingencies

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed
by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the
Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources
will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is
a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognize
a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.

The earnings considered in ascertaining the Company’s EPS is the net profit after tax. The number of shares
used in computing basic EPS is the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.
