We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Independence and other ethical responsibilities We are independent of the Group and of the Corporation in accordance with the By-Laws (on Professional Ethics, Conduct and Practice) of the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (“By-Laws”) and the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (“IESBA Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the By-Laws and the IESBA Code. Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Corporation for the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Corporation as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context. We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis of our audit opinion on the accompanying financial statements. Key audit matters (cont’d.) Key audit matters How we addressed the key audit matters Impairment of goodwill – (Refer to Note 15 - Intangible assets, to the financial statements) The Group is required to perform annual impairment test of cash generating units (“CGUs”) or groups of CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated. The Group estimated the recoverable amount of its CGUs or groups of CGUs to which the goodwill is allocated based on value-in-use (“VIU”). Estimating the VIU of CGUs or groups of CGUs involves estimating the future cash inflows and outflows and discounting them at an appropriate rate. Included in the Group’s goodwill as at 31 December 2019 of RM819.7 million is goodwill relating to the Petroleum segment. We focused on the impairment review of the goodwill relating to this segment as it represents more than 99% of the Group’s goodwill as at 31 December 2019 and significant judgements were involved in the terminal value and growth rate of the expected cash flows as well as the determination of an appropriate discount rate, which may cause possible variations in the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the goodwill has been allocated. Our audit procedures included, among others evaluating the assumptions and methodologies used by the Group, in particular the assumptions to which the recoverable amount of the CGUs are most sensitive such as the terminal value of the expected cash flows, the growth rate as well as the discount rate used. We have assessed and tested the key assumptions used by management to estimate the projected cash flows for the CGUs as follows: (a) evaluated the discount rate used to determine the present value of the cash flows and whether the rate used reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset; (b) evaluated the terminal value and growth rate of the expected cash flows; and (c) assessed the sensitivity of the goodwill balance to changes in the discount rate, terminal value and growth rate of cash flows. In addition, we also evaluated the adequacy of the disclosures of each key assumption on which the Group has based its cash flow projections and to which the recoverable amount is most sensitive, as disclosed in Note 15 to the financial statements.
