CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Dear Shareholders,

On behalf of the board (the "Board") of directors (the "Directors") of Kiddieland International Limited ("Kiddieland" or the "Company"), I am pleased to present the third consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Group") for the year ended 30 April 2020 following the successful listing of the Company's shares (the "Share(s)") on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange") on 21 September 2017.

Internally, financial year 2020 is crucial to our Group as there was a very substantial disposal transaction to dispose one of our subsidiaries in the PRC during the year. With the leaseback arrangement in place, it offers our Company to continue to lease the factory and buildings with its existing production and ancillary facilities located in the factory land for a period of three years from the transaction completion date. The Group keeps maintaining the usual production and operation of our toys business. The Directors are of the view that the terms of the disposal and the agreement are fair and reasonable and the entering into of the agreement is in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. The gain on disposal of the PRC subsidiary was approximately HK$170.0 million.

In addition, it is the first time that our Company distributed dividend after the listing in 2017. Upon the shareholders' approval and completion of the disposal, our Company has declared and distributed a special cash dividend of HK$150 million on 7 January and 7 February 2020 respectively. The whole arrangement and transaction is beneficial to the shareholders as it allowed the shareholders to immediately realise the value from their shareholdings in the Company.

Nonetheless, the financial year 2020 was a challenging year to our Group in terms of external factors, especially after the outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") in the second half of the financial year. It suddenly affected our production plan and sales performance. The Group's revenue for the year ended 30 April 2020 amounted to approximately HK$276.3 million, representing a decrease of 4.4% over last year.

The Group's net profit for the financial year 2020 was approximately HK$163.8 million as compared to loss attributable to shareholders of HK$9.4 million for last year. The net profit recorded this year was mainly attributed to the gain on the disposal mentioned above.

Despite the different challenges we encounter from various fronts, we still believe our success stems from our dedication to delivering high-quality products at competitive prices. More importantly, we recognise introducing creative new products to be essential in capturing customers' interest in our line, and we remain adamant and are committed to investing in developing a broad range of innovative toys every year. With the extra resources generated from the disposal of the PRC subsidiary in the year, strengthening our product development and accelerating the expansion of our target market and sales distribution channel, we are confident that we shall doing better in this direction in the near future.

On behalf of the Board, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to all fellow Directors, management and our staff for their dedication and contribution to our Group's development. I would also like to thank all our shareholders, business partners, customers, suppliers and bankers for their trust and continuous support in the previous year.

Yours Faithfully

Lo Hung

Chairman

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

BUSINESS REVIEW

Financial year 2020 has proven to be another challenging year for the Group and even to the whole world in general. Several events have been happened in the last three years, which largely affected the Group's business, mainly, (i) the bankruptcy and liquidation of the largest toy retailer in the world, Toys "R" Us Inc. ("TRU") in financial year 2018; (ii) the announcement of the Brexit in the U.K. on year 2017; and (iii) the trade war between U.S. and China starting from year 2018.

First, the filing of Chapter 11 bankruptcy by TRU in September 2017 and its subsequent liquidation announcement in March 2018 sent shockwaves to global toy industry. The resulting overall sentiment of the toy industry dived and many customers had turned particularly conservative in placing orders. During the past 2 years, the Group did its best to find other customers to pick up the lost business from TRU.

Second, the Brexit in the U.K. was finally confirmed on financial year 2020 following by the ratification of the withdrawal agreement by both the U.K. and the E.U. at the end of January 2020. The political instability in various places in Europe and the uncertainty factor has been eliminated. The Group originally believed that the sales performance in Europe will be getting better in the year.

Third, the trade war between U.S. and China has also created plenty of uncertainties. It hurts the overall economy worldwide as U.S. and China are the two largest economies in the world. Even though toys is not a category that has been affected by the tariffs U.S. has imposed on China imported goods, our Toys Business performance in the few years has been adversely affected due to the worsen economic environment. During the year, the conflict between U.S. and China had a bit retrieved following by the granting of tariff exemptions on a list of items and signing of trade deals by both countries.

By reviewing the sales performance in the first half of the financial year, the Group believed that the unfavourable effects of the above issues have been almost gone. However, there was another disaster happened suddenly at the beginning of Year 2020. Since January 2020, China and Hong Kong have reported numerous confirmed cases of COVID-19 which affected the usual business environment of the regions that the Group operates. A series of precautionary and control measures had been implemented across the PRC, including extension of the Chinese New Year holiday nationwide, postponement of work resumption after the Chinese New Year holiday, etc.. Thus, our production schedule and planning have been seriously affected suddenly.

What was worse is the outbreak of COVID-19 in Europe and North America. Starting from March 2020, there are huge increase confirmed cases reported every day in these regions. In order to reduce social contacts and to encourage the social distancing, most of the countries in these regions have adopted a stay-at-home order to reduce the chance of domestic person-to-person transmission. Due to the stay-at-home orders implemented, most of the retail shops have been closed temporarily and suddenly under the local government's appeal. Since most of our customers are the overseas massive retailers, they have cut the sales orders or postponed their original shipment schedules due to their shops closure. Thus, the Group's revenue during the last 3 months of the financial year was seriously affected.

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Notwithstanding the encouraging growth of revenue generated from both North America and Europe during first half of the financial year, revenue generated in second half of the financial year substantially affected by the outbreak of COVID-19 around the world. The Group's revenue for the year was approximately HK$276.3 million, which has decreased by 4.4% as compared to last year (2019: HK$289.0 million).

The decrease in revenue was mainly attributed to the decrease of revenue generated from Europe which decreased by 17.4% to approximately HK$88.2 million (2019: HK$106.8 million) due to the economic condition and political instability. Sales orders from various customers in Western European markets had decreased during the year because most of our customers in the region have adopted tightened procurement program as a result of the stagnant market sentiment and political instability in various places in Europe, mainly the Brexit in the U.K..

Luckily, the disposal of Dongguan Kiddieland Industrial Co., Ltd. completed on November 2019 has provided the Group with more liquidity. The net proceeds of the disposal after distributing the special cash dividend of HK$150 million were retained in the Group as general working capital. Hence, the reliance on outside funding sources is substantially reduced. It will provide healthy financial position to the Group in the long run.

The Group recorded a net profit of approximately HK$163.8 million for the year ended 30 April 2020 (2019: net loss of HK$9.4 million). The net profit for the year was attributed to the extraordinary gain on disposal of the PRC subsidiary. Regarding the ordinary course of the Group's business, the net loss was approximately HK$6.2 million. The decrease in net loss of the Group was attributed to (i) the currency depreciation in RMB against US$; (ii) the decrease in royalties and licenses fees; (iii) the significant drop in depreciation expenses in the second half of the financial year following by the disposal of the PRC subsidiary; (iv) the decrease in staff costs due to the restructuring and the retirement; and (v) the absence of non-cashshare-based payment expenses in the year. It was partially offset by the increase in commissions and logistics and warehousing expenses.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Revenue

As mentioned in Business Review, revenue generated from North America increased by 5.4% to approximately HK$161.9 million (2019: HK$153.6 million). Both average selling price and orders had increased. The increase was mainly attributed to revenue from one of the developing countries in the region followed by the change in commission calculation basis while the revenue from U.S. was relatively stable.

On the other hand, revenue generated from Europe decreased by 17.4% to approximately HK$88.2 million (2019: HK$106.8 million). The decrease was attributed to (i) the decrease in sales to the U.K. and Ireland affected by the Brexit; and (ii) the sluggish economy in Western Europe, especially those developed countries which have reported extremely high confirmed cases of COVID-19.

As a result of the above, the Group's overall revenue decreased by 4.4% to approximately HK$276.3 million (2019: HK$289.0 million).

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Gross profit

The Group's gross profit increased by 15.4% to approximately HK$44.9 million for the year (2019: HK$38.9 million). Although there was a 4.4% drop in the revenue during the year, the decreasing amplitude in cost of sales outweighs the range of the decrease in revenue. The decrease in cost of sales was mainly attributed to

  1. the currency depreciation in RMB against the US$. As much of our cost is expensed in RMB, this helped the Group to manage part of the cost in a positive way; (ii) the 9.0% decrease in the royalties and licenses fees due to the change of the product mix sold from licensed brand to Kiddieland brand; (iii) the reduction of depreciation expenses in the second half of the financial year as some of the fixed assets were sold during the disposal of the PRC subsidiary; and (iv) the restructuring at factory in Dongguan to streamlining some redundant management staff. Therefore, the Group's gross profit margin for the year increased to 16.2% as compared to 13.4% of last year.

Other income and gains

Other income and gains of the Group increased by around 71 times to approximately HK$200.3 million for the year (2019: HK$2.8 million). The significant increase was mainly attributed to the disposal of the PRC subsidiary completed on 12 November 2019, which the extraordinary gain before taxation amounted to approximately HK$197.2 million.

Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses increased by 77.6% to approximately HK$20.6 million for the year (2019: HK$11.6 million). The increase was mainly attributable to (i) the change in commission calculation basis in the view of pushing up the sales volume in some specific countries; and (ii) the increase in logistics and warehousing expenses. As there are plenty of uncertainties arising from the trade war between U.S. and China, especially during the first half of the financial year, the Group had executed an early shipment plan to ship extra inventories to our warehouse in U.S. in order to avoid paying potential additional import duties.

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses, including the net impairment losses on financial assets, decreased by 3.6% to approximately HK$32.5 million for the year (2019: HK$33.7 million). The decrease was mainly attributed to (i) the absence of non-cashshare-based payment expenses of approximately HK$1.3 million as compared to that in last year; and (ii) the decrease in staff costs due to the retirement of senior management.

Finance costs

Net finance costs decreased by 5.8% to approximately HK$4.9 million for the year (2019: HK$5.2 million). The decrease was attributed to the decrease in average bank borrowings level, especially after receiving the cash proceeds from the disposal of the PRC subsidiary at the end of December 2019.

Income tax expenses

The Group's income tax expenses for the year were approximately HK$23.4 million for the year. If excluding the income tax expenses related to the disposal of approximately HK$27.2 million, the Group recorded income tax credits (net of tax expenses) of approximately HK$3.8 million for the year whilst the Group recorded income tax expenses of HK$0.5 million for last year. The tax credits for the year were mainly attributable to the deferred tax assets recognised relating to the temporary tax losses in the PRC subsidiary.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Net profit/(loss)

As mentioned above, due to the gain on disposal of the PRC subsidiary, the Group has recorded a net profit of approximately HK$163.8 million for the year (2019: net loss of HK$9.4 million). If excluding this extraordinary gain, the net loss from the ordinary course of business was approximately HK$6.2 million (2019: net loss of HK$9.4 million). The decrease in net loss was mainly attributed to (i) the decrease in cost of sales mentioned above; (ii) the absence of non-cashshare-based payment expenses; and (iii) the decrease in staff costs. It was partially offset by the increase in selling and distribution expenses mentioned above.

Inventories

Inventories as at 30 April 2020 were approximately HK$99.5 million, decreased from approximately HK$118.1 million as at 30 April 2019. Inventory turnover days for the year were 172.1 days (2019: 168.9 days). The decrease in stock level was primarily attributed to the unexpected lower production capacity and lower level of raw materials purchased in the last 3 months of the financial year due to the outbreak of COVID-19.

Trade receivables

Trade receivables as at 30 April 2020 were approximately HK$16.9 million, decreased from approximately HK$25.3 million as at 30 April 2019. Trade receivables turnover days for the year were 28.0 days (2019: 28.2 days). The decrease in trade receivables level was attributed to the decrease in sales level in the last 3 months of the financial year due to the outbreak of COVID-19.

Trade and bills payables

Trade and bills payables as at 30 April 2020 were approximately HK$15.9 million, decreased from approximately HK$21.2 million as at 30 April 2019. Trade and bills payables turnover days for the year were 29.4 days (2019:

30.1 days). The decrease in trade and bills payables level was attributed to the decrease in purchasing activity and production capacity in the last 3 months of the financial year due to the outbreak of COVID-19.

Liquidity and financial resources

During the year ended 30 April 2020, the Group mainly financed its working capital by internal resources and bank borrowings. As at 30 April 2020, cash and cash equivalents amounted to approximately HK$7.2 million (2019: HK$19.4 million). The decrease was mainly due to the huge increase in the repayment of bank borrowings and the utilisation of the listing proceeds according to the future plans during the year. The current ratio of the Group, as calculated by the total current assets over the total current liabilities, was 2.2 as at 30 April 2020 (2019: 0.9).

As at 30 April 2020, the Group's net current assets were approximately HK$88.8 million (2019: net current

liabilities of HK$19.3 million). Total bank borrowings were approximately HK$43.1 million (2019: HK$138.2 million). The Group's financial gearing, based on the total bank borrowings compared to the total equity, was 30.1% (2019: 108.0%). All bank borrowings were subject to floating interest rates and one of the loans, amounted to approximately HK$25.5 million, is a committed term loan with around 4 years remaining term. The Group and the Directors will maintain the availability of bank facilities and negotiate with banks to increase the borrowings limit for working capital needs, if necessary.

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FOREIGN CURRENCY EXPOSURE

The Group's sales and purchases are mainly denominated in Hong Kong and US Dollar. And for production factory located in the PRC, expenses incurred there are denominated in Renminbi.

Since Hong Kong Dollar remains pegged to US Dollar, the Group does not foresee a substantial exposure in this area, and will closely monitor the trend of Renminbi to see if any action is required.

As at 30 April 2020, the Group had not entered into any financial instrument for the hedging of foreign currency.

EMPLOYEES AND REMUNERATION POLICY

As at 30 April 2020, the Group employed 813 full-time management, administrative and production staff in Hong Kong and the PRC. The Group has seasonal fluctuations in the number of workers employed in its production plant while the number of management and administrative staff remains stable. The Group remunerates its employees based on their performance, experience and prevailing industry practices.

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY

The Group is committed to achieving environmental sustainability and has implemented its Corporate Social Responsibility strategy across the organisation by embedding social responsibility into daily operations. The Group's production plant substantially complied with all applicable local and international environmental regulations.

The Group has installed solar panels as well as energy saving devices for injection machines at its factory in the PRC. The Group also encourages environmental protection practices such as setting up recycling bins, promoting using recycled papers and reducing energy consumption by switching off lightings and electrical appliances. The Group resolves to adopt and encourages practices that prevent or minimise pollution and optimise efficient use of energy and natural resources in order to provide employees with a safe and healthy working and living environment.

The Company's Environmental, Social and Governance Report is set out on pages 31 to 45 of this annual report.

SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT HELD

Except for investments in subsidiaries, the Group did not hold any significant investment during the year.

CAPITAL COMMITMENTS

As at 30 April 2020, the commitments of the Group for acquisition of property, plant and equipment amounted to approximately HK$0.9 million, which have been contracted, but not provided for in the consolidated financial statements.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

As at 30 April 2020, the Group had contingent liabilities in relation to irrevocable standby letter of credit of approximately HK$8.7 million. Save as aforesaid, the Group did not have any other significant contingent liabilities.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OUTLOOK/FUTURE PROSPECTS AND STRATEGIES

For the past few months, our world is experiencing an unexpected COVID-19 pandemic that has taken hundreds of thousands of lives and resulted in many lockdowns on economies. Millions have lost their jobs and many governments have introduced unprecedented fiscal and monetary policies to stabilise their economies.

The future of economies in general remains highly unpredictable, and most corporations are reluctant to give out meaningful forecasts. Like the majority of businesses, our sales has been adversely impacted during the lockdown when most of our customers were forced to close their retail shops. Demand in toys has dropped significantly, coupled with the loss of income and many uncertainties relating to the pandemic, the management is not able to offer a very encouraging outlook at the moment. Nonetheless, business has slowly resumed around the world, and the Company is already seeing positive signs of recovery with new incoming orders.

One phenomenon that stemmed from the pandemic is the halt in traveling. The same has happened in China which has substantially slowed down labour mobility. As the Group now approaches the peak production season, hiring workers has become a great challenge. The scarcity in labour supply is inevitably reflected in raised wages and factories have added all kinds of incentives to attract new workers.

The Company suffers from loss of sales as demand plummets while at the same time production costs continue to rise with the labour supply instability. Year 2020 is probably going to be one of the toughest years the management has ever seen in the last 20 years. Fortunately, the Company has eliminated over 50 middle management level staffs at the factory last year, and it has sold off some unproductive and obsolete moulds and tooling. Moreover, the major raw material component of making toys is plastic, which is highly correlated to oil prices. With the pandemic the Company has enjoyed a noticeable reduction in plastic prices. As the management is doing its best to streamline its production processes and elevate its efficiency, the Company believes the worst is already behind us.

With social distancing and economy lockdowns, internet sales is gradually making more prominent inroads in replacing the more traditional brick and mortar shopping model. The Group's focus in strengthening its internet sales capabilities is a long-term investment and it is starting to pay off. The Company will continue to build its infrastructure to enhance its presence in the internet sales domain, especially in North America where it will grow the fastest.

Most of the markets are struggling with the effects of the pandemic and the near-term outlook is not very promising. However, the management will closely monitor its development and adopt to any necessary changes if necessary. The Group believes it is well positioned with the cost cutting measures taken to pass through these difficult times, and will emerge stronger next year.

Subsequent to the year end, Kiddieland Toys and Top Dragon have entered into a renewal tenancy agreement to further renew the term for one year from 1 June 2020 to 31 May 2021.

The total amount of rental paid or payable by Kiddieland Toys to Top Dragon under the Tenancy Agreement for the year ended 30 April 2020 was HK$5,760,000.

As Top Dragon is owned as to 50% by each of Mr. Lo Hung (an executive Director of the Company) and his spouse, Ms. Leung Siu Lin Esther (also an executive Director of the Company), Top Dragon is regarded as a connected person of the Company within the meaning of the Listing Rules.

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS

The purpose of the Share Option Scheme is to provide the Company with a flexible means of giving incentive to, rewarding, remunerating, compensating and/or providing benefits to the participants and for such other purposes as our Board may approve from time to time.

The Board may, at its discretion, invite the following categories of participants (the "Participant(s)"):

  1. any Director, chief executive or employee (whether full-time or part-time) of each member of our Group;
  2. any discretionary objects of a discretionary trust established by any Director, chief executive or employee (whether full-time or part-time) of each member of our Group; and
  3. a company beneficially owned by any Director, chief executive or employee (whether full-time or part- time) of each member of our Group,

to take up Options granted to the Participant to subscribe for Shares pursuant to the terms of the Share Option Scheme to subscribe for Shares at a price determined in accordance with the Share Option Scheme.

In determining the basis of eligibility of each Participant, our Board would take into account such factors as our Board may at its discretion consider appropriate.

The Share Option Scheme shall be valid and effective for a period of 10 years commencing on the Adoption Date, after which period no further Options will be granted but in all other respects the provisions of the Share Option Scheme shall remain in full force and effect to the extent necessary to give effect to the exercise of any Options granted prior thereto or otherwise as may be required in accordance with the provision of the Share Option Scheme, and Options which are granted during the life of the Share Option Scheme may continue to be exercisable in accordance with their terms of issue.

An offer of the grant of an Option (the "Offer") shall be made to a Participant by letter (the date of which shall be deemed to be the date on which the grant of an Option (subject to acceptance by the Grantee) is made) in such form as our Board may from time to time determine (the "Offer Letter") specifying the number of Shares under the Option, the subscription price, the vesting schedule (if any), the conditions to vesting (if any), and the period to be determined by our Board at its absolute discretion and notified by our Board to each Grantee as being the period during which an Option may be exercised and in any event, such period shall not be longer than 10 years from the date upon which any particular Option is granted in accordance with the Share Option Scheme (the "Option Period") and requiring the Participant to undertake to hold the Option on the terms on which it is to be granted and to be bound by the provisions of the Share Option Scheme. An Offer must be made on a Business Day and shall remain open for acceptance by the Participant to whom an Offer is made for a period from the date of the Offer (the "Offer Date") to such date as our Board may determine and specify in the Offer Letter (both days inclusive) (the "Acceptance Period"), provided that no such Offer shall be open for acceptance after the 10th anniversary from the Adoption Date or after the Share Option Scheme has been terminated in accordance with the provisions thereof, whichever is earlier.

An Offer shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Grantee and the Option to which the Offer relates shall be deemed to have been granted and to have taken effect when the duplicate of the Offer Letter comprising acceptance of the Offer duly signed by the Grantee together with a remittance in favour of the Company of HK$1.00 by way of consideration for the granting thereof is received by the Company within the Acceptance Period. Such remittance shall in no circumstances be refundable or be considered as part of the subscription price.

23

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS

Subject to any adjustments, the subscription price in respect of each Share issued pursuant to the exercise of Options granted hereunder shall be a price solely determined by the Board and notified to a Participant and shall be at least the highest of:

  1. the closing price of a Share as stated in the Stock Exchange's daily quotations sheet on the Offer Date, which must be a business day;
  2. a price being the average of the closing prices of the Shares as stated in the Stock Exchange's daily quotations sheets for the 5 business days immediately preceding the offer date (provided that the new issue price shall be used as the closing price for any business day falling within the period before listing of the Shares where our Company has been listed for less than 5 business days as at the Offer Date); and
  3. the nominal value of a Share.

Unless otherwise determined by our Board and specified in the Offer Letter at the time of the Offer, there is neither any performance targets that need to be achieved by the Grantee before an Option can be exercised nor any minimum period for which an Option must be held before the Option can be exercised. An Option may be exercised in whole or in part in the manner as set out in the Offer Letter by the Grantee (or his personal representative(s)) giving notice in writing to our Company stating that the Option is thereby exercised and the number of Shares in respect of which it is exercised.

Subject to the terms and conditions upon which such Option was granted, an Option may be exercised by the Grantee at any time during the Option Period.

The total number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all Options to be granted under the Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes of the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries shall not in aggregate exceed 10% of the total number of Shares in issue immediately following completion of the Initial Public Offering (such 10% being 100,000,000 Shares). Options lapsed in accordance with the terms of the Share Option Scheme will not be counted for the purpose of calculating such 10% limit.

The total number of Shares issued and to be issued upon exercise of the Options granted to each Participant (including both exercised and outstanding Options) in any 12-month period shall not exceed 1% of the total number of Shares in issue.

Where any further grant of Options to a Participant would result in the Shares issued and to be issued upon exercise of all options granted and to be granted to such Participant under the Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes of our Company (including exercised, cancelled and outstanding Options) in the 12-month period up to and including the date of such further grant representing in aggregate over 1% of the total number of Shares in issue, such further grant must be separately approved by the shareholders in general meeting with such Participant and his close associates (or his associates if such Participant is a connected person) abstaining from voting.

The number of Shares subject to the Options to be granted to such Participant and the terms (including the subscription price) of the Options to be granted to such Participant shall be fixed before shareholders' approval and the date of Board meeting for proposing such further grant should be taken as the date of grant for the purpose of calculating the subscription price. In such a case, our Company shall send a circular to our shareholders containing, amongst other terms, the identity of such Participant, the number and the terms of the Options to be granted (and Options previously granted to such Participant) and such other information and the disclaimer as required under the Listing Rules.

A summary of the principal terms and conditions of the Share Option Scheme is set out in the section headed "Share Option Scheme" of "Statutory and General Information" in the Prospectus.

MATERIALITY ASSESSMENT

The Group emphasises the participation of its stakeholders, including shareholders of the Company, staff, customers, suppliers, etc. All of them have a substantial impact on the success of its business or activities.

The Group believes that stakeholder engagement has a significant level of influence in developing sustainable development strategies and fulfilling social responsibilities which is the basis for the Group's strategy formulation and decision-making. A list of sustainability issues, which were potentially material to the Group, was decomposed in the context of its business and daily operation. A materiality assessment matrix was developed from the result of stakeholder engagement exercises conducted with internal stakeholders through an online survey. The materiality assessment and prioritisation took two dimensions into account. It included the importance of issues to stakeholders and the business. The issues that fall within the top right-hand corner have relatively higher significance to both stakeholders and the Group's business.

Emissions

Air Emissions

In the daily operations, the major air pollutant emission sources are activities in the spray paint booths, the burners used in the production plant and staff canteen. The exhaust gas contains paint ashes and volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) (e.g. Benzene, Toluene and Xylene, etc), which are generated from the process of spray painting and pad printing. Besides, oil vapour is generated during cooking. Also, the burners and mobile vehicles emit inorganic air pollutants (sulphur oxides, nitrogen oxides and particulate matters) during combustion.

33

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE REPORT

The Group has implemented measures to ensure the emissions complying with the Level II requirement of the Integrated Emission Standard of Air Pollutant (GB16297-1996). To reduce the emissions from various activities, the Group has implemented emission control measures as follows:

Activities/Sources of Emissions

Emission Control Measures

Spraying

The spray gun for painting is flushed in a designated wash

station, which equipped with ventilation units with filter and

activated carbon to remove the VOCs.

Dry milling process

A dustless dry mill is used to reduce the dust.

Cutting process

Regularly perform maintenance to equipment to ensure the

operation is running properly, reduce the running heat of

machine caused by bad maintenance.

The blade of the cutting machine is inspected regularly to

ensure its sharpness.

Mobile vehicles

Quarterly maintenance is performed to check if the engine oil

is needed to replace, and the oil tank is required for cleaning.

Engine oil is replaced according to the distance travelled and

the mileage record is maintained.

Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions

The Group is aware of potential physical and financial consequences of climate change on the business. These could include higher energy costs and more frequent extreme weather events that disrupt product supply chains. To minimise the contribution to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the Group strives to reduce energy use across the business, and the related energy-saving measures are illustrated in the section headed "Use of Resources". To reduce fugitive emissions from refrigerants in air conditioners, measures are implemented as follows:

  • Regular maintenance of air-conditioner, for instance, cleaning filter and compressor, check if any leakage of refrigerant
  • Prefer purchasing air-conditioners with non-fluorinated refrigerant
  • New air-conditioners are preferred to have the China Energy Label Level 1

For the year ended 30 April 2020, the total GHG emissions were 10,268.71 tonnes CO2 equivalent, and its intensity was 0.004 tonnes CO2 equivalent per unit of products. Scope 2 emissions were the primary source of total GHG emissions, accounting for 90% of the total GHG emissions. The total GHG emissions decreased by 8% as compared to last year (2019: 11,152.77 tonnes CO2 equivalent). There were no substantial changes in the GHG emission intensity.

Wastes

Reducing wastes allows the Group to save money while shrinking its environmental impact. The Group's comprehensive waste policy requires managers at its operated facilities to document waste management practices and procedures and communicate them to all employees. Facilities must evaluate all hazardous and non-hazardous waste streams and maintain an up-to-date recycling plan that identifies materials to be recycled or reused, methods of collection, and recycling vendors. Recycle bins are set up in the production plant for collection of recyclable wastes and hazardous wastes. The hazardous wastes are then treated through incineration.

The calculation of greenhouse gas emissions is made reference to guidelines provided by "The Greenhouse Gas Protocol - A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standards".

Scope 1 and 2 emissions figures have been restated for consistent comparisons due to the updates to emission factors and methodologies. These changes also required restatements of total GHG emissions and its intensity for 2019.

Scope 1 refers to direct emissions from operations that are owned or controlled by the Group. It includes combustion of natural gas, unleaded petrol and fugitive emissions from refrigerant.

Scope 2 refers to "Indirect energy" emissions resulting from internal consumption by the Group (purchased or acquired) of electricity, heating, cooling and steam. It includes indirect emissions from electricity purchased.

Use of Resources

The Group is committed to conserving resources for the purposes of environmental and operating efficiency. To pursue the Group's environmental commitment, it implements multiple measures in enhancing energy efficiency.

The Group has established an energy management system to monitor and manage the use of resources. The Group aims to reduce its operating costs as well as our carbon footprints. To reduce energy consumption, the Group adopts plans and measures as follows:

  • Maintenance of the machinery is carried out regularly to ensure their efficiencies. One of three transformers is shut down in the slack season
  • Raising the employees' awareness of energy saving
  • Improvement of the production process and management
  • Reinforcement of the energy management

To save our energy consumption, we stop operating some of the equipment during slack seasons. It can achieve cost-saving of approximately HK$247,000 for a year.

The Group formulates energy-saving plan annually and installed energy monitoring system. For the year ended 30 April 2020, the total energy consumption was 12,059,604.86 kWh and its intensity was 4.72 kWh per unit of products.

While operations at the Group's facilities and offices are not water-intensive, water conservation is a focus area and part of its environmental management practices. The Group uses water primarily in restrooms and kitchens, with a small amount for irrigation and processes. Its water reduction efforts are modest since they can only generate minor improvements. Water is supplied by the third party, and there is no significant issue in sourcing water for the business operation. The Group requires managers at its operated facilities to manage water use and develop water conservation plans to reduce consumption, where appropriate. For the year ended 30 April 2020, 1,850 tonnes of water were reused before discharged, and the total water consumption was 233,186 m3, and its intensity was 0.09 m3 per unit of products.

Quality control of the finished goods

Once a product has been fully assembled, it is subject to testing and checking in accordance with specified requirements. To maintain the high quality of products, full checking on all of the finished products is performed.

Unsatisfactory products will be reworked until they reached the requisite standards. In addition, products are tested by the Group's internal laboratory and third-party laboratories.

KEY AUDIT MATTER

Key audit matter is the matter that, in our professional judgment, was of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. This matter was addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on this matter.

Key audit matter identified in our audit is summarised as follows:

  • Impairment of inventories

How our audit addressed the

Key Audit Matter

Key Audit Matter

Impairment of inventories

Refer to notes 4(b) and 20 to the consolidated financial statements

As at 30 April 2020, the Group had inventories amounted to approximately HK$99,537,000, net of provision for impairment of inventories of approximately HK$829,000.

The Group is engaged in manufacturing and trading of plastic toy products targeted the toddlers' age group. The Group plans the production based on the actual and anticipated demand, market condition and production efficiency but the unpredictable market volatilities could have severe impacts on the manufacturing costs and marketability of the Group's products.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Management reviews the carrying values of inventories and determines the amount of impairment provision with reference to the inventory utilisation records, inventories ageing, confirmed sales orders and selling prices for sales subsequent to the year end.

We focused on this area due to management's judgement in estimating the amount of inventory provision.

Our procedures in relation to management ' s assessment on the impairment of inventories include:

  • Understanding and evaluating the appropriateness of the basis that management used in estimating the level of impairment provision for inventories by considering the inventory ageing as at 30 April 2020; the subsequent sales situation after year end; and the confirmed orders on hand;
  • Testing the accuracy of inventory ageing on a sample basis by checking to the inventories receipt records;
  • Testing the inventory utilisation during the year ended 30 April 2020 and subsequent to the year end on a sample basis by checking to sales invoices and shipping documents and performing analysis to identify products with indication of slow moving and obsolescence;
  • Testing the confirmed sales orders by checking to the purchase orders placed by the Group's customers on a sample basis; and
  • Comparing the carrying amounts of the inventories, on a sample basis, to their net realisable values by examining sales invoices and shipping documents for inventories sold subsequent to the year end to check the inventories were stated at lower of cost and net realisable value.

Based on the procedures described, we considered management's judgement and estimates in relation to the provision for impairment of inventories to be supportable by the available evidence.

OTHER INFORMATION

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all of the information included in the annual report other than the consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated 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.

When we read the Corporate Governance Report and Environmental, Social and Governance Report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to the audit committee and take appropriate action considering our legal rights and obligations.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF DIRECTORS AND AUDIT COMMITTEE FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, and for such internal control as the Directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

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

The audit committee is responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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. We report our opinion solely to you, as a body, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with HKSAs 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 consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with HKSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 Group's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Directors.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors' 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

We communicate with the audit committee 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 the audit committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to 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 the audit committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated 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.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Cheung Kin Bong.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1 GENERAL INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Kiddieland International Limited was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on 3 June 2016 as an exempted company with limited liability. The address of its registered office is PO Box 1350, Clifton House, 75 Fort Street, Grand Cayman KY1-1108, Cayman Islands. The Company is an investment holding company. Its subsidiaries are principally engaged in the manufacturing and selling of plastic toy products (the "Toys Business").

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Hong Kong Dollars ("HK$") unless otherwise stated.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2.1 Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with HKFRSs and requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with HKFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in note 4.

  1. New and amended standards, improvements and interpretations adopted by the Group
    The Group has applied the following new and amended standards, improvements and interpretations for the first time for its annual period commencing on 1 May 2019:

Annual Improvements Project (Amendments)

Annual Improvements 2015 - 2017 Cycle

HKAS 19 (Amendments)

The Group had to change its accounting policies following the adoption of HKFRS 16. The Group elected to adopt the new rules but recognised the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard on 1 May 2019. The details of which are set out in note 2.2. The other amendments listed above did not have any material impact on the amounts recognised in prior periods and are not expected to significantly affect the current or future periods.

  3. Effective for annual periods commencing on or after 1 May 2022
  4. To be determined

The above accounting standards and interpretations have been published but are not mandatory for 30 April 2020 reporting period and have not been early adopted by the Group. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the Group in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.

2.2 Changes in accounting policies

This note explains the impact of the adoption of HKFRS 16 "Leases" on the Group's consolidated financial statements and the new accounting policies that have been applied from 1 May 2019 in below.

The Group has adopted HKFRS 16 from 1 May 2019, but has not restated comparatives for the prior reporting period, as permitted under the specific transitional provisions in the standard. The reclassifications and adjustments arising from the new leasing rules are therefore recognised in the opening balance of the consolidated statement of financial position on 1 May 2019.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

2.2 Changes in accounting policies (Continued)

  1. HKFRS 16 "Leases"- Adjustment recognised on adoption
    On adoption of HKFRS 16, the Group recognised lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as operating leases under the principles of HKAS 17 "Leases". These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate as of 1 May 2019. The weighted average lessee's incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on 1 May 2019 was 4.2%.
    For leases previously classified as finance leases, the Group recognised the carrying amount of the lease assets and lease liabilities immediately before transition as the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets and the lease liabilities at the date of initial application. The measurement principles of HKFRS 16 are only applied after that date.

Right-of-use assets were measured at the amount equal to the lease liabilities, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to that lease recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 April 2019. There were no onerous lease contracts that would have required an adjustment to the right-of-use assets at the date of initial application.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

2.2 Changes in accounting policies (Continued)

  1. HKFRS 16 "Leases"- Adjustment recognised on adoption (Continued)
    The change in the accounting policy affected the following items in the consolidated statement of financial position as at 1 May 2019:
    • prepaid operating lease - decrease by approximately HK$12,330,000
    • right-of-useassets - increase by approximately HK$18,298,000
    • accrued lease payments - decrease by approximately HK$960,000
    • lease liabilities - increase by approximately HK$6,928,000
  2. Practical expedients applied
    In applying HKFRS 16 for the first time, the Group has used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:
    • the accounting for operating leases with a remaining lease term of less than 12 months as at 1 May 2019 as short-term leases; and
    • the exclusion of initial direct costs for the measurement of the right-of-use assets at the date of initial application.

The Group has also elected not to reassess whether a contract is, or contains a lease at the date of initial application. Instead, for contracts entered into before the transition date, the Group relied on its assessment made applying HKAS 17 and HK(IFRIC)-Int 4 "Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease".

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Principles of consolidation and equity accounting
    Subsidiaries
    Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
    The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group (refer to note 2.4).
    Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have to be changed when necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
    Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of financial position respectively.
  2. Business combinations
    The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the:
    • fair values of the assets transferred;
    • liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired business;
    • equity interests issued by the Group;
    • fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement; and
    • fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity on an acquisition-by- acquisition basis either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the acquired entity's net identifiable assets.

Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

2.4 Business combinations (Continued)

The excess of the

  • consideration transferred;
  • amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity; and
  • acquisition-datefair value of any previous equity interest in the acquired entity.

over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the business acquired, the difference is recognised directly in statement of comprehensive income as a bargain purchase.

Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in statement of comprehensive income.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains or losses arising from such remeasurement are recognised in statement of comprehensive income.

  1. Separate financial statements
    Investment in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment. Cost includes direct attributable costs of investment. The results of subsidiaries are accounted for by the Company on the basis of dividend received and receivable.
    Impairment testing of the investment in subsidiaries is required upon receiving a dividend from these investments if the dividend exceeds the total comprehensive income of the subsidiary in the period the dividend is declared or if the carrying amount of the investment in the separate financial statements exceeds the carrying amount in the consolidated financial statements of the investee's net assets including goodwill.
  2. Segment reporting
    Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the executive Directors that makes strategic decisions.

2.7 Foreign currency translation

  1. Functional and presentation currency
    Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the "functional currency"). The functional currency of the Company is United States dollars ("US$"). The consolidated financial statements ar presented in HK$ because the Directors considered that the headquarter of the Group is located in Hong Kong.
  2. Transactions and balances
    Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income within "Other gains, net".
    Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings are presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, within "Finance costs". All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income on a net basis within "Other gains, net".
  3. Group companies
    The results and financial position of all Group's entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
    • assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing exchange rate at the end of reporting period;
    • income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions); and
    • all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign entities, and of borrowings and other financial instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are recognised in other comprehensive income. When a foreign operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net investment are repaid, the associated exchange differences are reclassified to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, as part of the gain or loss on disposal.

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

2.8 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income during the year in which they are incurred.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Factories and buildings

2% or over the remaining period of the lease

Leasehold improvements

10% or over the remaining period of the lease

Plant and machinery

10%

Furniture and fixtures

20%

Office equipment

33%

Motor vehicles

33%

Moulds and tools

20%

The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.

An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount (note 2.11).

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised within "Other gains, net" in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

  1. Prepaid operating leases
    Prepaid operating leases are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation. Cost represents consideration paid for the use of land on which various factories and buildings are situated for a period of 50 years. Amortisation of prepaid operating lease is calculated on a straight-line basis over the period of leases.
  2. Intangible assets
    Separately acquired licenses are stated at the cost of minimum guaranteed license payments. The licenses have finite useful lives and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of licenses over the license terms of 6 months to 3 years.

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Impairment of non-financial assets
    Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash- generating units). Non-financial assets that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
  2. Financial assets
    1. Classification
      The Group classifies its financial assets at amortised cost. The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
    2. Recognition and derecognition
      Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecogised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
    3. Measurement
      At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value and subsequently measures at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment.
      Financial assets at amotised cost are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows that represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition is recognised directly in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and presented in "Other gains, net". Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
    4. Impairment
      The Group assessed credit risk on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
      For trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by HKFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
      For other financial assets at amortised cost, the Company has assessed that the expected credit losses for these receivables are not material under the 12 months expected losses method. Thus, no loss allowance provision was recognised at 30 April 2020.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Offsetting financial instruments
    Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
  2. Inventories
    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work-in-progress comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity). It excludes borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses.
  3. Trade and other receivables
    Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold in the ordinary course of business. If collection of trade and other receivables is expected in one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets.
    Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less allowance for impairment. See note 2.12 for further information about the Group's accounting for trade receivables and a description of the Group's impairment policies.
  4. Cash and cash equivalents
    For the purpose of presentation in the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institution, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position.
  5. Share capital
    Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
    Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
  6. Trade and other payables
    Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade and other payables are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer), If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Borrowings
    Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
    Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the drawdown occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.
    Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of reporting period.
  2. Borrowing costs
    General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale.
    Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
  3. Current and deferred income tax
    The income tax expense for the period is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
    Current income tax
    The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries where the company's subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

2.21 Current and deferred income tax (Continued)

Deferred income tax

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred income tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

The deferred income tax liability in relation to investment property that is measured at fair value is determined assuming the property will be recovered entirely through sale.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Deferred income tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in foreign operations where the company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current income tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Current and deferred income tax is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

  1. Employee benefits
    Pension obligations
    The Group participates in a defined contribution plan. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions, on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis, into a separate entity. The scheme is generally funded through payments to insurance companies or state/trustee-administered funds. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. It has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee services in the current and prior periods.
    The contributions are recognised as employment costs when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
    Employee leave entitlements
    Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. A provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the end of reporting period.
    Employee entitlements to sick leave and maternity leave are not recognised until the time of leave.
  2. Share-basedpayment
    Share-based compensation benefits are provided to certain selected employees share option plan, under which the entity receives services from employees as consideration for equity instruments (shares or options) of the Group. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of the shares and options is recognised as an expense. The total amount to be expensed is determined with reference to the fair value of the shares granted:
    • including any market performance conditions (for example, the entity's share price);
    • excluding the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions (for example, profitability, sales growth targets and remaining an employee of the entity over a specified time period); and
    • including the impact of any non-vesting conditions (for example, the requirement for employees to save or holding shares for a specific period of time).

The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each reporting period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting and service conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

When the options are exercised, the Company issues new shares to employee. The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited directly to share capital and share premium.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Provisions
    Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
    Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.
    Provisions are measured at the present value of management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
  2. Revenue recognition
    Revenue from the sale of goods directly to the customers is recognised at the point that the control of the goods have passed to the customers, which is primarily upon the acceptance of the products by the customers. Revenue from sale of goods is recognised, net of value-added tax, allowances for estimated returns, sales incentives, rebates, and discounts. The customers have full discretions over the goods, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customers' acceptance of the goods.
    The goods are always sold with sales incentives and discounts. Revenue from these sales are recognised based on the price specified in the contract, net of the estimated sales incentives and discounts. Accumulated experience is used to estimate and provide for the discount, using the expected value method, and revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. A refund liability (contra to the trade receivables) is recognised for expected discounts entitled to customers in relation to sales made until the end of each reporting period.
    Contract assets and contract liabilities
    Upon entering into a contract with a customer, the Group obtains rights to receive consideration from the customer and assumes performance obligations to provide services to the customer. The combination of those rights and performance obligations gives rise to a net asset or a net liability depending on the relationship between the remaining rights and the performance obligations. The contract is an asset and recognised as contract assets if the measure of the remaining rights exceeds the measure of the remaining performance obligations. Conversely, the contract is a liability and recognised as contract liabilities if the measure of the remaining performance obligations exceeds the measure of the remaining rights.

  1. Other income
    1. Management fee income
      Management fee income is recognised over the period when the service rendered.
    2. Interest income
      Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest method.
    3. Sundry Income
      Sundry income is recognised at the point of time that Group's obligation is fulfilled and the right to receive payment is established.
  2. Earnings per share
    Basic earnings per share
    Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to owners of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year and excluding treasury shares.
    Diluted earnings per share
    Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, and the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
  3. Leases
    As explained in note 2.2 above, the Group has changed its accounting policy for leases when the Group is the lessee. The new policy is described below and the impact of the change is shown in note 2.2.
    Before 30 April 2019, leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership were not transferred to the Group as lessee were classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) were charged to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

2.28 Leases (Continued)

From 1 May 2019, leases are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Group.

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:

  • fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable.

Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability.

The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Group, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.

To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Group:

  • where possible, uses recent third-party financing received by the individual lessee as a starting point, adjusted to reflect changes in financing conditions since third party financing was received; and
  • makes adjustments specific to the lease, e.g. term, country, currency and security.

Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the followings:

  • the amount of the initial measurement of lease liabilities;
  • any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received;
  • any initial direct costs; and
  • any restoration costs.

Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. If the Group is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset's useful life.

2.29 Dividend distribution

Dividend distribution to the shareholders is recognised as a liability in the consolidated financial statements in the year in which the dividends are approved by the entities' shareholders or Directors, where appropriate.

3 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

3.1 Financial risk factors

The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, fair value interest-rate risk and cash flow interest-rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's overall risk management programme focuses on the volatility of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance.

  1. Market Risk
    1. Foreign exchange risk
      The Group mainly operates in Hong Kong, the PRC and the U.S. with majority of the transactions settled in HK$, Renminbi ("RMB") and US$. Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions or recognised assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the respective entities' functional currencies. Since HK$ is pegged with US$, management is of the opinion that the foreign exchange risk arising from US$ is insignificant.
      As at 30 April 2020, certain of the Group's trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances and trade and other payables are denominated in RMB other than the functional currency of the operating unit. If HK$ has strengthened/weakened by 5% against RMB, with all other variables held constant, the profit before taxation for the year would have been approximately HK$32,000 higher/lower (2019: loss before taxation would have been HK$43,000 lower/higher).
    2. Cash flow interest-rate risk
      The Group has no significant interest-bearing assets except for bank balances, details of which are disclosed in note 22. The Group's exposure to changes in interest rates is mainly attributable to its borrowings, details of which are disclosed in note 26. The bank borrowings that are carried at floating rates expose the Group to cash flow interest-rate risk. The Group has not used any interest rate swaps to hedge its exposure to interest- rate risk.
      As at 30 April 2020, if the interest rates on bank borrowings had been 50 basis points higher/lower, with all other variables held constant, the profit before taxation for the year would have been approximately HK$216,000 lower/higher (2019: loss before taxation for the year would have been HK$691,000 higher/lower), mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating-rate borrowings.

3 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued)

3.1 Financial risk factors (Continued)

  1. Credit risk
    The Group is exposed to credit risk in relation to its cash and bank balances, trade receivables, other receivables and deposits. The Group's maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amounts of these financial assets.
    The Group's financial assets are subject to the expected credit loss model. While cash at banks are also subject to the impairment requirements of HKFRS 9, the identified impairment loss was immaterial as they are mainly deposited in reputable and creditworthy banks.
    Trade receivables
    The Group applies the HKFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables.
    The Group has performed historical analysis and evaluated financial condition of the debtors impacting credit risk and expected credit loss. It considers available and supportive forward- looking information.

A summary of the assumptions underpinning the Group's categorisation of trade receivables in its expected credit loss model is as follows:

Category

Group definition of category

Group 1

Entities rated as top-grade by reputable credit rating agencies

Group 2

Entities rated as medium grade by reputable credit rating agencies

As at 30 April 2020, the Group has considered the probability of default upon initial recognition of assets and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis for the year. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Group considered the actual or expected significant adverse changes in business, financial and economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the third party's ability to meet its obligations. The Group determined that the expected loss rate for other receivables was immaterial and no loss allowance for other receivables was recognised.

3 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued)

3.1 Financial risk factors (Continued)

  1. Liquidity risk
    Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalents and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities.
    The Group's primary cash requirements have been for additions of property, plant and equipment, and payment for purchases of materials, operating expenses and dividends. The Group mainly finances its working capital requirements through internal resources and bank borrowings.
    The Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents considered adequate by the Directors to finance the Group's operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The Directors monitor the utilisation of bank and other borrowings to ensure adequate unutilised banking facilities and compliance with loan covenants.
    The table below analyses the Group's financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the end of reporting period to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows (including interests payments computed using contractual rates, or if floating, based on the current rates at the year-end dates). Where the loan agreement contains a repayable on demand clause which gives the lender the unconditional right to call the loan at any time, the amounts repayable are classified in the earliest time bracket in which the lender could demand repayment and no interest payments were included. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances, as the impact of discounting is not significant.

The Directors do not consider that it is probable that the banks will exercise their discretion to demand immediate repayment having considered the values of the assets pledged to the banks. The Directors believe that such bank loans will be repaid in accordance with the scheduled repayment dates set out in the loan agreements.

3.2 Capital risk management

The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group's ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

The Group monitors its capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as bank borrowings and lease liabilities less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as "equity" as shown in the consolidated statement of financial position, plus net debt of the Group.

The carrying amounts of the Group's current financial assets, including trade receivables, deposits and other receivables excluding prepayments and cash and bank balances, and the Group's current financial liabilities, including trade and bills payables, accruals and other payables, contract liabilities and bank borrowings, approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. The nominal value less estimated credit adjustments for financial assets and liabilities with a maturity of less than one year are assumed to approximate their fair values.

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

4 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The Group make estimates and assumption concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next year are discussed below.

  1. Current and deferred income tax
    The Group is subject to income taxes in different jurisdictions. Judgement is required in determining the provision for income taxes in different jurisdictions. There are transactions and calculations during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Group operates mainly in Hong Kong, the PRC and the U.S. and has transactions with customers and suppliers in different countries. The Group's inter-company transactions and cross-border business arrangements during the ordinary course of business may impose inherent uncertainty over the Group's profit allocation and its respective tax position across different jurisdictions. The tax treatments of these transactions or arrangements may be subject to the interpretation by respective tax authorities in different countries. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the year in which such determination is made.
    Deferred income tax assets relating to certain temporary differences and tax losses are recognised when management considers it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences or tax losses can be utilised. When the expectations are different from the original estimates, such differences will impact the recognition of deferred income tax and income tax expense in the year in which such estimates are changed.
  2. Allowance for impairment of inventories
    The Group assesses annually whether any allowance is required to reflect the carrying value of inventories, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 2.14. Net realisable values have been determined based on the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. This estimation requires the use of judgement.
  3. Useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment
    Management estimates useful lives and residual values of its property, plant and equipment with reference to the Group's business model, its assets management policy, the industry practice, expected usage of assets, expected repair and maintenance, the technical or commercial obsolescence arising from changes or improvements in market. Depreciation expense would be significantly affected by the useful lives of the property, plant and equipment as estimated by management. Management will increase the depreciation charges where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or it will write-off or write-down technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold.

78

Kiddieland International Limited | Annual Report 2020

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  1. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (Continued)
    1. Impairment of property, plant and equipment

      1. Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The recoverable amounts have been determined based on value-in-use calculations or fair value less costs of disposal. These calculations require the use of judgements and estimates.
        Management's judgement is required in the area of asset impairment particularly in assessing:
      2. whether an event has occurred that may indicate that the related asset values may not be recoverable; (ii) whether the carrying value of an asset can be supported by the recoverable amount, being the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and net present value of future cash flows which are estimated based upon the continued use of the asset in the business; and (iii) the appropriate key assumptions to be applied in preparing cash flow projections including whether these cash flow projections are discounted using an appropriate rate. Changing the assumptions selected by management in assessing impairment, including the discount rates or the growth rate assumptions in the cash flow projections, could materially affect the net present value used in the impairment test and as a result affect the Group's financial position and results of operations. If there is a significant adverse change in the projected performance and resulting future cash flow projections, it may be necessary to take an impairment loss to the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
    2. Impairment of financial assets

    3. For trade receivables (excluding non-financial assets), the Group applies the simplified approach to provide for expected credit losses as prescribed by HKFRS 9, which requires the use of the lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables (excluding non-financial assets). The loss allowances for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Group uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the Group's past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of reporting period. Management reassesses the provision at the end of each reporting period.
  2. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The executive Directors of the Company have been identified as the chief operating decision-makers of the Group who review the Group's internal reporting in order to assess performance of the Group on a regular basis and allocate resources.

The Group is principally engaged in the manufacturing and selling of plastic toy products. The chief operating decision-makers assess the business performance based on a measure of operating results. Information reported to the chief operating decision-makers for the purposes of resources allocation and performance assessment focuses on the operation results of the Group as a whole as the Group's resources are integrated. Accordingly, the Group has identified one operating segment - manufacturing and selling of plastic toy products.

The total cash outflows for leases during the year ended 30 April 2020 were approximately HK$6,062,000.

  1. The Group's leasing activities and how these are accounted for
    From 1 May 2019, leases are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the lease asset is available for use by the Group. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.
    Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable.
    The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be determined, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value in a similar economic environment with similar terms and conditions.
    Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the followings:
    • the amount of the initial measurement of lease liabilities; and
    • any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received.

Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised on a straight-line basis as expenses in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less.

The Group applies the HKFRS 9 simplified approach to measure expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for trade receivables. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics. Note 3.1(b) provides more details about the calculation of loss allowance.

The other classes within trade receivables and other receivables do not contain any impaired assets. The Group does not hold any collateral as security.

As at 30 April 2020, the expected credit losses for other receivables were immaterial, no loss allowance was made (2019: Nil).

The carrying amounts of trade receivables, other receivables, deposits and prepayments approximate their fair values.

Notes:

(i) In the prior years, the Group injected certain machineries into Dongguan Kiddieland Industrial Co., Ltd.. According to the relevant rules in the PRC, the machineries are recognised at fair values at the time of injection for tax reporting purpose. Deferred income tax assets are recognised for the temporary differences arose.

(ii) Pursuant to the PRC Corporate Income Tax Law, a 10% withholding tax is levied on dividends declared to foreign investors from the foreign investment enterprises established in the PRC. A lower withholding tax rate may be applied if there is a tax treaty between the PRC and the jurisdiction of the foreign investors, For the Group, the applicable rate is 5%. The Group is therefore liable for withholding taxes on dividends distributed by those subsidiaries established in

96

the PRC.

25 DEFERRED INCOME TAX (Continued)

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for tax loss carry-forwards to the extent that the realisation of the related tax benefit through future taxable profits is probable. The Group did not recognise deferred income tax assets of approximately HK$2,709,000 (2019: HK$2,919,000) as at 30 April 2020, in respect of losses amounting to approximately HK$14,261,000 (2019: HK$15,062,000) as at 30 April 2020 as it is not certain that future taxable profits against which the losses can be utilised will be available in the relevant tax jurisdictions and entities.
