INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF RENUKA FOODS PLC

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Renuka Foods PLC (“the Company”), and the consolidated financial
statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (“the Group”), which comprise the statements of financial position as
at 31 March 2022, and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash
flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, set
out on pages 49 to 112.

In our opinion, the financial statements of the Company and the Group give a true and fair view of the financial position
of the Company and the Group as at 31 March 2022, and of their financial performance and cash flows for the year then
ended in accordance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standards.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Sri Lanka Auditing Standards (“SLAuSs”). Our responsibilities under those
standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our
report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by CA Sri Lanka (Code of Ethics)
and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with 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
Company financial statements and the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were
addressed in the context of our audit of the Company financial statements and the consolidated financial statements
as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Other Information
The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all the information included in the
annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.

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

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

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we
are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with
Sri Lanka Accounting Standards, , and for such internal control as the management determines is necessary to enable the
preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the 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 the management either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do
so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s and the Group financial reporting process.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements


Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 SLAuSs will 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 financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SLAuSs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 Company and 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 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 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 financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether
the 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.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements
in accordance with Code of Ethics regarding independence, and 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 charge with governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the 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.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements


As required by section 163 (2) of the Companies Act No. 07 of 2007, we have obtained all the information and explanations
that were required for the audit and, as far as appears from our examination, proper accounting records have been kept by
the Company.

18.1 Biological Assets at Fair value


Biological Assets at Fair value as at 31st March 2022 consists of Ceylon Forestry (Pvt) Limited’s investment
made for Teak Plants and Coco Lanka (Private) Limited’s, Investments made for timber plants.

18.1.1 Ceylon Forestry (Private) Limited


The biological asset is on the land owned by Ceylon Botanicals (Private) Limited (a subsidiary company of
the Group), for which rent has been paid by Ceylon Forestry (Private) Limited. The total extent of the land is
67-A-3R-03.00P. The planted area is 42 acres. Number of trees are 13,896.
Managed trees include commercial teak timber plantations cultivated on the estates in Matale. The cost of
immature trees up to 5 years from planting are treated as approximate fair value particularly on the grounds
of little biological transformation has taken place and impact of the biological transformation on price is not
material.
When such plantation become mature, the additional investment since taken over to bring them to maturity
are transferred from immature to mature.

RENUKA FOODS PLC


76 Annual Report 2021/22
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Contd...)

The fair value of managed trees was ascertained in accordance with LKAS 41 – “Agriculture” which is applicable
only for managed agricultural activity in terms of the ruling issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Sri Lanka. The Valuation was carried out by an independent Chartered Valuation Surveyor Mr. W.M. Chandrasena
FIV(SL)MRICS (UK) using Discounted Cash Flows (DCF) method. Valuation of biological assets are considered
as a level III valuation, and details of the valuation are given below.
18.1.2 Coco Lanka (Private) Limited
The biological assets is on the land acquired by Coco Lanka (Private) Limited. The total extent of the lad
is 165 Acres. Managed trees include commercial Teak timber plantations and coconut nursery on the estate
in Puttalam. The cost of immature trees up to 5 years from planting are treated as approximate fair value
particularly on the grounds of little biological transformation has taken place and impact of the biological
transformation on price is not material.
When such plantation become mature, the additional investment since taken over to bring them to maturity
are transferred from immature to mature.
The fair value of managed trees was ascertained in accordance with LKAS 41 – “Agriculture” which is applicable
only for managed agricultural activity in terms of the ruling issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Sri Lanka. The Valuation was carried out by an independent Chartered Valuation Surveyor Mr. W.M. Chandrasena
FIV(SL)MRICS (UK) using Discounted Cash Flows (DCF) method. Valuation of biological assets are considered as
a level III valuation, and details of the valuation are given below.
18.1.3 Key assumptions used in valuation are as follows

Variable Comment
Timber Content Estimated based on the girth (range between 15 to 72 inch), height (range between 16
to 35 nears) and considering the growth and present age of the trees of each species
in different geographical regions, factoring all the prevailing statutory regulations
enforced against harvesting of timber coupled with forestry plan of the Company
approved by the Forestry Department.
Economic Useful Life Estimated based on normal life (25–35 years) span of each species by factoring the
forestry plan of the Company approved by the Forestry Department.
Sellilng Price Estimated based on prevailing Sri Lankan market prices (Rs. 675–825 per cubic ft.)
factoring all the conditions to be fulfilled in bringing the trees in to salable condition.
Discount Rate Future cash flows are discounted at the rate of 14.5% (2021 – 13%)

The valuations, as presented in the external valuation models based on net present values, take into account
the long-term exploitation of the timber plantation. Because of the inherent uncertainty associated with the
valuation at fair value of the biological assets due to the volatility of the variables, their carrying value may differ
from their realizable value. The Board of Directors retains their view that commodity markets are inherently
volatile and that long-term price projections are highly unpredictable. Hence, the sensitivity analysis regarding
selling price and discount rate variations as included in this note allows every investor to reasonably challenge
the financial impact of the assumptions used in the LKAS 41 against his own assumptions.

The estimated average future sales price of timber may


Inter-relationship between key unobservable increase or decrease within a +10% to -10% range.
inputs and fair value measurement: The risk-adjusted discount rate of 14% may stimulate an
increase or a decrease between the ranges +1% to -1%

Sensitivity variation on discount rate


Values as appearing in the Statement of Financial Position are very sensitive to changes of the discount rate
applied. Simulations made for timber, shows that an increase or a decrease by 1% of the estimated discount

18.2 Biological Assets at cost less depreciation include coconut nursery. The nursery is for replant vacant areas of
the plantation held by Kandy Plantations Limited and Coco Lanka (Private) Limited. During the year, Kandy
Plantations Limited has incurred Rs.1,423,555 (2020/21 – Rs.1,954,682) in planting coconut nursery. The asset
is carried out at the cost as at the reporting date, since the nursery has just started its operation and the

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Contd...)

Non-controlling interest represent the equity in subsidiaries that are not attributable, directly or indirectly
to the parent Company. Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed
to the Company and non-controlling interests. Losses are attributed to non-controlling interests even if the
noncontrolling interests balance reported in the consolidated statement of financial position in negative.

Non-controlling interests are directly recognized as the difference between the proceeds received and the
carrying amount of the acquired interests. The difference is recorded as a reduction or increase in equity
under transactions with non-controlling interests. Upon disposal of rights in a subsidiary that does not result in
a loss of control, an increase or decrease in equity is recognized as the difference between the consideration
received by the Group and the carrying amount of the non-controlling interests in the subsidiary adjusted for
the disposal of goodwill in the subsidiary, if any, and amounts recognized in other comprehensive income, if
any. Transaction costs in respect of transaction with non-controlling interests as also recorded in equity.

Significant inter group balances and transaction and gain or loss resulting from intergroup transactions are
eliminated in full in the consolidated financial statements.

The financial statement of the Company and of the consolidated investees are prepared as of the same date
and period. The accounting policies in the financial statements of those investees are applied consistently
and uniformly with the policy applied in the financial statement of the Company.

reduce debtors outstanding and negotiating credit terms with its suppliers.

consolidation measures, structural reforms and an IMF engagement. We are firm in our belief that Sri Lankan
businesses will demonstrate their characteristic resilience in responding to the challenges presented by the
economic fallout and will emerge as stronger, resilient and more agile organizations.
