DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES

A number of the group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair values, for both financial and non-financial

assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods.

Where applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset

or liability.

Property, plant and equipment

The fair value of property, plant and equipment recognised as a result of a business combination is based on market values. The market

value of property is the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a

willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without

compulsion. The market values of other assets are based on the quoted market prices for similar items.

Intangible assets

The fair value of intangible assets is based on the discounted cash flows expected to be derived from the use and eventual sale of the

assets.

Inventory

The fair value of inventory acquired in a business combination is determined based on its estimated selling price in the ordinary course of

business less the estimated costs of completion and sale, and a reasonable profit margin based on the efforts required to complete and sell

the inventory.

Investments

Fair value of listed investments is calculated by reference to stock exchange quoted selling prices at the close of business on the report date.

Fair value of unlisted investments is determined by using appropriate valuation models.

Forward exchange contracts

The fair value of forward exchange contracts is based on their market prices.

Borrowings

Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest cash flows,

discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date. For finance leases the market rate of interest is determined by reference to

similar lease agreements. The carrying value of the bank overdrafts is the fair value.

Share-based payments

The fair value of the share options is measured using a binomial method. Measurement inputs include share price at measurement

date, exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on the historic volatility of The Bidvest Group Limited share), option life,

distribution yield and the risk-free interest rate (based on national government bonds).
