BASIS OF PREPARATION
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the three months ended 31 March 2015 have been prepared in
accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), its
interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), the presentation and the disclosure
requirements of IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the JSE Listings Requirements. The accounting policies which have been
applied are consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014.
As the Group is focusing on being consistent in those areas of reporting that are seen to be of most relevance to investors and on
providing a meaningful basis of comparison for users of the financial information, it has prepared unaudited management accounts.
The main difference between the management accounts and the financial statements is that the management accounts statements
are prepared using the proportionate consolidation method for investments in joint-ventures, which is not in accordance with IFRS
(but consistent with financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS reported before 1 January 2013), while the IFRS financial
statements use the equity method for accounting for these investments (following the adoption of IFRS 11 ‘Joint Arrangements’
effective 1 January 2013).
The management accounts have been prepared by and are the responsibility of the below mentioned Directors of NEPI. Due to its
nature, the management accounts may not fairly reflect the financial position and results of the Group after the differences set out
above.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the three months ended 31 March 2015 have not been reviewed or
reported on by the Group’s external auditors.
