  Goodwill impairment testing

Goodwill is allocated to the appropriate CGUs according to the type of business and where it operates. The CGUs represent the identifiable assets for which an active market exists and which generate independent cash flows for the group.

External and internal factors surrounding the business operations play a role in determining an indication of impairment. In addition, the carrying amount of goodwill is subject to an annual impairment test. Impairment tests are carried out on all goodwill balances within each CGU.

Impairment of goodwill arises when the recoverable amount of the CGU, including goodwill, is less than the carrying value. The recoverable amount is determined as the greater of the fair value less costs to sell or the value in use. In most instances it is difficult to use the fair value less costs to sell as a reliable estimate is not easily obtainable in determining the recoverable amount. Therefore the value-in-use method is used to assess the goodwill for impairment.

Basis for value in use calculations

Cash flow projections

The value in use is calculated using the forecasted cash inflows and outflows which are expected to be derived from continuing use of the CGU and its ultimate disposal. Cash flow projections for financial forecasts are based on expected revenue, operating margins, working capital requirements and capital expenditure, which are approved by senior management. The assumptions used in deriving at the cash flows are based on past experience and adjusted for any expected changes for the individual CGUs.

These cash flow projections cover a five-year forecast period, which are then extrapolated into perpetuity using applicable growth rates. Growth rates applied are determined based on future trends within the industry, geographic location and past experience within the operating divisions. Growth rates can fluctuate from year to year based on the assumptions used to determine these rates.

Discount rate applied

The discount rate applied to the cash flow projections is calculated using the weighted average cost of capital which is adjusted for risk and is applied to calculate the present value of the forecasted cash flows.

Goodwill impairments

During the current year the group impaired goodwill amounting to R139 million in the following segments:

Africa (Including South Africa) Logistics – R107 million of goodwill was impaired as a result of contracts lost, warranty profits not being achieved and CGUs not making sufficient profits.
Other Segments – R32 million of goodwill relating to warranty profits not being achieved and the recoverability of goodwill relating to the businesses being sold.
