Explanatory note:

Variances [a], [b] and [d] were attributable to audit adjustments raised by auditors of the Group's subsidiary in the United Kingdom, upon completion of the audit in November 2021. Significant adjustments made are summarised as follows:-

  1. Presentation of revenue derived from a new partnership arrangement on a net basis instead of gross basis, leading to decrease in revenue and decrease in other operating expenses;
  2. Adjustment to reverse over-recognition of deferred income to profit or loss, leading to decrease in revenue;
  3. Adjustment to reverse net over-accrual of staff costs, leading to decrease in staff costs; and
  4. Aggregated adjustments for miscellaneous expense items identified by auditors, leading to increase in other operating expenses. These partially offset the decrease in other operating expenses highlighted in (i).

Variance [c] was attributable to additional allowance for expected credit losses made for receivables from students arising from the Group's operations in Singapore.

Explanatory Note:

  1. The adjustments to the Group's balances in the consolidated statement of financial position were mainly attributable to the audit adjustments raised by auditors of the Group's subsidiary in the United Kingdom, upon completion of the audit in November 2021, and additional allowance for expected credit losses made for receivables from students arising from the Group's operations in Singapore. The nature of the adjustments have been explained in the explanatory notes to the consolidated income statement for the financial year ended 30 June 2021.
  2. The variances noted for the Company's non-current trade and other receivables and non-current trade and other payables were mainly due to reclassification of the non-current portions of loans owing from/to subsidiaries to non-current assets and non-current liabilities respectively.
  3. The variances in the Company's trade and other receivables was due to fair value adjustment on a loan due from a subsidiary in Hong Kong which was restructured during the financial year, and the reclassification of the non- current portion of the loan to non-current assets as elaborated in [f].
  4. The variances in the Company's trade and other payables was due to fair value adjustment on a loan due to a subsidiary upon restructuring and novation of inter-company loans within the Group which occurred during the financial year, and the reclassification of the non-current portion of the loan to non-current liabilities as elaborated in [f].
  5. Reduction in the deficit of the Company's reserves was as explained in note [f] to [h]. The fair value adjustments on the intercompany loans have no impact on the Group's statement of financial position and consolidated income statement.

There were no material variances noted on the Group's consolidated cash flow statement for the financial year ended 30 June 2021.

The Company would like to highlight to shareholders that there were reclassifications made to certain disclosure items in the Audited FY2021 Financial Statements which do not have any net impact on the Group's financial results. The Board is hence of the opinion that these reclassifications were not material, except for the reclassifications set out in above explanatory notes.
