The position is portfolio. regularly reviewed and monitored by the Board. Management and staff Outlook On behalf of the Board and shareholders, I would like to thank our Brazil is currently enduring its worse economic recession on record. Although management and staff for their efforts and hard work during the year. The there are signs that things may start to bottom out, the outlook for 2017 performance delivered during the current downturn is a testament to their remains subdued. Our container terminals business continues to perform well hard work and dedication. and the extension of the Tecon Salvador concession period and associated terminal expansion is an important element in our strategy to further develop J F Gouvêa Vieira and improve this business. We do not expect significant capital expenditure Chairman on this project before 2018. Demand for towage services remains firm 24 March 2017 although we are facing a more competitive environment than in previous years. The prospects for an improvement in the important Brazilian offshore oil and gas market remain poor with little likelihood of any significant improvement before the end of 2018. Brasco, our oil and gas support base provider continues to suffer from the malaise facing the industry however we remain optimistic regarding the long-term prospects for this business. Our offshore vessels joint venture, Wilson Sons Ultratug Offshore currently operates twenty-three PSVs of which nineteen are under long-term contract with no further contracts due to expire during 2017. Market over-capacity continues to dampen demand for both vessel hire and new buildings. The shipyard new buildings order book currently consists of two tugboats for third parties and two tugboats for our own fleet. Following on the cost cutting actions undertaken in 2016 management continues to focus on reviewing costs across the Group to improve efficiency and streamline our operations. The performance of our Brazilian businesses during the current recession demonstrates their fundamental strength and quality of the assets. We are confident of the resilience of our business and are well placed to benefit from growth in trade flows, demand for maritime oil and gas support services and any turnaround in economic growth. 4 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 The tugboat Procyon built at our shipyard in Guaruja. 5 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Financial Review Operating profit 3% lower at US$148.3 million (2015: US$152.5 million) principally due to the Group operating margins for the year at 21.2% were in line with prior year weaker average USD/BRL exchange rate.

Therefore, movements in the USD/BRL exchange rate can compared to US$68.7 million in 2015. The improvement is principally due to influence the Group’s results both positively and negatively from year to year. the US$12.8 million exchange gain on foreign currency borrowings (2015: During 2016 the BRL appreciated 17% against the USD from R$3.90 at US$32.6 million loss), the US$18.1 million movement in foreign exchange 1 January 2016 to R$3.26 at the year end. In contrast, in 2015 the BRL gains on monetary items and a US$3.2 million increase in the share of results depreciated 47% against the USD from R$2.66 at 1 January 2015 to R$3.90 of joint ventures. These gains were partially offset by a US$12.7 million at the year end. The principal effects from the movement of the BRL against decrease in operating profit and negative returns from the investment portfolio the USD on the income statement are set out in the table below: of US$4.1 million (2015: US$1.4 million). 2016 2015 Taxation US$ million US$ million Income tax expense for the year at US$36.8 million was US$2.7 million Exchange gains/(losses) on monetary items (i) 2.3 (15.8) Exchange gains/(losses) on foreign currency borrowings Deferred tax on retranslation of fixed assets (ii) Deferred tax on exchange variance on loans (iii) Total 12.8 22.4 (14.3) 23.2 (32.6) (27.0) 25.0 (50.4) higher than last year (2015: US$39.5 million). This represents an effective tax rate for the period of 31.3% (2015: 57.4%) compared with the corporate tax rate prevailing in Brazil of 34.0%. The difference in the effective tax rate is principally due to deferred tax items and expenses that are not included in determining taxable profit in Brazil and expenses or income at our Bermudian companies that are not subject to income tax. The principal impacts from these items on the tax charge in the income statement are set out in the table (i) This arises from the translation of BRL denominated monetary items in below: USD functional currency entities. (ii) The Group’s fixed assets are located in Brazil and therefore future tax deductions from depreciation used in the Group’s tax calculations are denominated in BRL. When the BRL depreciates against the US Dollar the future tax deduction in BRL terms remain unchanged but is reduced in US Dollar terms. (iii) Deferred tax credit arising from the exchange losses on USD denominated borrowings in Brazil. The appreciation of the BRL against the USD in 2016 resulted in a positive impact of US$23.2 million on the income statement in the year compared with a US$50.4 million negative impact in 2015 caused by the devaluation of the BRL against the USD.

BRL denominated revenues and benefits BRL denominated costs when converted into our USD reporting currency. Foreign exchange gains/(losses) on monetary items Foreign exchange gains on monetary items of US$2.3 million (2015: US$15.8 million loss) arise from the Group’s foreign currency monetary items and principally reflect the movement of the BRL against the USD during the period. In 2015 the Brazilian Real depreciated against the US Dollar generating an overall exchange loss on monetary items. The current year effective tax rate of 31.3% is lower than prior year (57.4%), principally because of the 17% appreciation of the BRL against the USD in the year compared with a 47% depreciation in 2015 as a number of the items not included in determining taxable profit are driven by movements in the BRL/USD exchange rate.

The growth in equity is principally due to profits for the year of US$45.1 million, plus a positive currency translation adjustment of US$19.0 million less dividends paid of US$22.3 million. The currency translation adjustment arises from exchange differences on the translation of operations with a functional currency other than USD.

The due diligence process would typically include visiting the ‘silos’: (i) Core regional funds which form the core of our holdings, enabling us manager in their office (in whichever country it may be located), onsite visits to capture the natural beta within markets, (ii) Sector specific silo, represented to prospective portfolio companies, taking multiple references and seeking a by those sectors with long-term growth attributes, such as technology and legal opinion on all relevant documentation. biotechnology, and (iii) Diversifying silo, which are those asset classes and sectors which will add portfolio protection as the business cycle matures. All investments are reviewed on a regular basis to monitor the ongoing Investment Policy compatibility with the portfolio, together with any ‘red flags’ such as signs of ‘style drift’, personnel changes or lack of focus. Whilst the Investment The Investment Manager will seek to achieve the Investment Objective Manager is looking to cultivate long-term partnerships, every potential repeat through investments in publicly quoted and private (unquoted) assets across investment with an existing manager is assessed as if it were a new the three silos. Cash levels will be managed to meet future commitments (e.g. relationship. to private assets) whilst maintaining an appropriate balance for opportunistic investments. Portfolio Characteristics The portfolio has several similarities to the ‘endowment model’. These Commensurate with the long-term horizon, it is expected that the majority of similarities include an emphasis on generating real returns, a perpetual time investments will be concentrated in equity, across both ‘public’ and ‘private’ horizon and broad diversification, whilst avoiding asset classes with low markets. In most cases, investments will be made either through collective expected returns (such as government bonds in the current environment). This funds or limited partnership vehicles, working alongside expert managers in diversification is designed to make the portfolio less vulnerable to permanent specialised sectors or markets to access the best opportunities. loss of capital through inflation, adverse interest rate fluctuations and currency devaluation and to take advantage of market and business cycles. The The Investment Manager maintains a global network to find the best Investment Manager believes that outsized returns can be generated from opportunities across the three silos worldwide. The portfolio contains a high investments in illiquid asset classes (such as private equity). In comparison to level of investments which would not normally be readily accessible to public markets, the pricing of assets in private markets is less efficient and the investors without similar resources. Furthermore, a large number of holdings outperformance of superior managers is more pronounced. are closed to new investors. There is currently no gearing although the Board would, under the appropriate circumstances, be open-minded to modest levels of gearing. Likewise, the Board may, from time to time, permit the Investment Manager opportunistically to use derivative instruments (such as index hedges using call and put options) to actively protect the portfolio. Investment Process Manager selection is central to the successful management of the investment portfolio. Potential individual investments are considered based on their risk- adjusted expected returns in the context of the portfolio as a whole. Initial meetings are usually a result of: (i) a ‘top-down’ led search for exposure to a certain geography or sector, (ii) referrals from the Investment Manager’s global network or (iii) relationships from sell-side institutions and other introducers. The Investment Manager reviews numerous investment opportunities each year, favouring active specialist managers who can demonstrate an ability to add value over the longer-term, often combining a conviction-based approach, an unconstrained mandate and the willingness to take unconventional decisions (e.g. investing according to conviction and not fear of short-term underperformance versus an index). Excessive size is often an impediment to continued outperformance and the bias is therefore towards managers who are prepared to restrict their assets under management to a level deemed appropriate for the underlying opportunity set. Track records are important but transparency is an equally important consideration. Alignment of interest is essential and the Investment Manager will always seek to invest on the best possible terms. Subjective factors are also important in the decision making process – these qualitative considerations would include an assessment of the integrity, skill and motivation of a fund manager. 12 Investment Manager’s Report Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Market Commentary driven by the political elite favouring the owners of assets, corporates and the 2016 proved to be full of surprises with the winds of change blowing through emerging nations.

As part of this procedure, sensitivities over uncorrected identified misstatements exceeding US$0.25m (2015: US$0.27m), each of the assumptions and judgements were evaluated. in addition to other identified misstatements that warranted reporting on We considered the adequacy of the Group’s disclosures in respect of qualitative grounds. impairment testing and whether disclosures about the sensitivity of the Of the Group’s 23 reporting components (2015: 25), we subjected 7 to audits outcome of the impairment assessment to changes in key assumptions for Group reporting purposes (2015: 9) and 16 to specified risk-focused audit properly reflected the risks inherent in the key assumptions and the procedures (2015: 16) over all material financial statement captions . Those 16 requirements of accounting standards. components were not individually financially significant enough to require an audit for group reporting purposes, but did present specific individual balances Provisions (US$20.0m (2015: US$13.9m)) Risk vs 2015: (cid:1)(cid:2) that needed to be addressed. Refer to page 22 (Finance Committee Report), page 37 (accounting policy) and pages 59 and 60 (financial disclosures). The components within the scope of our work accounted for the following percentages of the group’s results: • The risk – As is common for businesses in Brazil, the Group receives a high volume of legal claims from general civil proceedings, labour claims and changing tax legislation. These resultant contingent liabilities are potentially significant and the application of accounting standards to determine the amount, if any, to be provided as a liability, is inherently subjective. In making these decisions, the Directors use their judgement and where appropriate receive external advice, in order to make their best estimate of provisions to be recorded in the financial statements. This is one of the key areas that our audit concentrated on as a result of the impact that a material claim could have on the Group’s financial position and result for the year. • Our response – Our audit procedures included obtaining an understanding from the Directors and in-house legal counsel of the basis for their estimates, and challenging the basis used with reference to the latest available corroborative information. This involved an assessment of correspondence with the Group’s external counsel on all significant legal cases and discussions with them when further clarity was deemed necessary. In addition, we obtained direct formal confirmations to confirm the amounts and status of claims from the Group’s external counsel for all significant litigation. With regard to open tax cases, in addition to the above we used our own tax specialists to assess the Group’s tax positions based on its correspondence with the relevant tax authorities and our knowledge of local tax jurisdictions. We analysed and challenged the assumptions used to determine tax provisions based on our tax specialists’ knowledge and experiences of the application of the international and local legislation by the relevant authorities and courts. We also assessed whether the Group’s disclosures detailing significant legal proceedings adequately disclose the provisions and contingent liabilities of the Group. 3. Our application of materiality and an overview of the scope of our audit Materiality for the Group financial statements as a whole was set at US$5.0m (2015: US$5.35m), determined with reference to a benchmark of average Group profit before taxation excluding foreign exchange gains or losses over a four year average period, of US$104.9m, of which it represents 4.8%, Group Number profit Group of Group before total components revenue tax assets 7 16 23 25 83% 17% 96% 89% 4% 11% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% Audits for Group reporting purposes Specific risk-focused audit procedures Total Total (2015) The Group team instructed component auditors as to the significant areas to be covered, including the relevant risks detailed above and the information to be reported back. The Group team approved the component materialities, which were US$2.5m for the component in Jersey and a range of US$1.3m to US$4.7m for the components in Brazil (2015: US$1.3m to US$5.0m), having regard to the mix of size and risk profile of the Group across the components. The work on 22 of the 23 components in the Group were performed by the component auditor in Brazil and the component in Jersey is audited by the Group team. The Group team visited Brazil twice in the year, including to assess the audit risk and strategy. Telephone conference meetings were also held with the component auditor. At these visits and meetings, the findings reported to the Group team were discussed in more detail, and any further work required by the Group team was then performed by the component auditor. 4. We have nothing to report on the disclosures of principal risks Based on the knowledge we acquired during our audit, we have nothing material to add or draw attention to in relation to: • the directors’ viability statement on page 23, concerning the principal risks, their management, and, based on that, the directors’ assessment and expectations of the Group’s continuing in operation over the 3 years to 2018; or • the disclosures in note [2] of the financial statements concerning the use of the going concern basis of accounting. 26 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 5.

Capital reserves The capital reserves arise principally from transfers from revenue to capital reserves made in the Brazilian subsidiaries arising in the following circumstances: (a) profits of the Brazilian subsidiaries and Brazilian holding company which in prior periods were required by law to be transferred to capital reserves and other profits not available for distribution; and (b) Wilson Sons Limited bye-laws require the company to credit an amount equal to 5% of the company’s net profit to a retained earnings account to be called legal reserve until such amount equals 20% of the Wilson Sons Limited share capital. Hedging and translation reserve The hedging and translation reserve arises from exchange differences on the translation of operations with a functional currency other than US Dollars and effective movements on hedging instruments. Amounts in the statement of changes of equity are stated net of tax where applicable. 30 Consolidated Cash Flow Statement for the year ended 31 December 2016 Net cash inflow from operating activities Investing activities Acquisition of non-controlling interest Interest received Dividends received from trading investments Proceeds on disposal of trading investments Purchase of trading investments Proceeds on disposal of property, plant and equipment Purchase of property, plant and equipment Purchase of intangible assets Net cash used in investing activities Financing activities Dividends paid Dividends paid to non-controlling interests in subsidiary Repayments of borrowings Repayments of obligations under finance leases New bank loans raised Derivative paid Net cash from financing activities Net (decrease)/increase in cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of year Effect of foreign exchange rate changes Cash and cash equivalents at end of year Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes 29 28 11 Year to Year to 31 December 31 December 2016 US$’000 93,812 (1,855) 7,460 4,811 63,664 (67,101) 3,174 (96,209) (5,277) (91,333) (22,279) (15,235) (40,965) (1,086) 46,604 (1,016) (33,977) 2015 US$’000 145,459 – 11,702 4,244 57,783 (75,558) 987 (65,779) (2,238) (68,859) (22,279) (14,104) (49,894) (1,081) 31,881 (445) (55,922) (31,498) 20,678 97,561 103,810 11,251 (26,927) 77,314 97,561 31 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2016 1 General Information Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited is a company incorporated in Bermuda under the Companies Act 1981 and the Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited Act, 1991. The address of the registered office is given on page 16. The nature of the Group’s operations and its principal activities are set out in the operating and financial review on pages 1 to 15. These financial statements are presented in US Dollars because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates. Entities with a functional currency other than US Dollars are included in accordance with the policies set out in note 2. 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements Basis of accounting The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs adopted for use by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the revaluation of financial instruments and share-based payments liabilities that are measured at fair values. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. Going concern The directors have, at the time of approving the financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Group closely monitors and manages its liquidity risk. The Group has considerable financial resources including US$77.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and the Group’s borrowings have a long maturity profile. The Group’s business activities together with the factors likely to affect its future development and performance are set out in the Chairman’s statement, Operating review and Investment Manager’s report on pages 1 to 15. The financial position, cash flows and borrowings of the Group are set out in the financial review in pages 6 to 10. In addition note 36 to the financial statements include details of its financial instruments and hedging activities and its exposure to credit risk and liquidity risk. Details of the Group’s borrowings are set out in note 22. Based on the Group’s forecasts and sensitivities run, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the accounts. Reclassification Provisions relating to legal claims were previously reported in other operating expenses. In 2016 to improve the transparency of the financial statements, the Group has decided to reclassify provisions to revenue, employee benefits expense and income tax expense, according to the underlying nature of the legal claims. Previous financial figures and those reclassified are as follows: Revenue Employee benefits expense Other operating expenses Income tax expense Total Basis of consolidation As presented Reclassified 31 December 31 December 2016 US$’000 – – (3,706) – 2015* US$’000 346 (3,679) (622) 249 (3,706) (3,706) The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries) made up to 31 December each year (collectively the “Group”). The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has the rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the Group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation. Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are identified separately from the Group’s equity therein. Non-controlling interests consist of the amount of those interests at the date of the original business combination and the non-controlling interest’s share of changes in equity since the date of the combination. Where a change in percentage of interests in a controlled entity does not result in a change of control, the difference between the consideration paid for the additional interest and the book value of the net assets in the subsidiary at the time of the transaction is taken direct to equity. 32 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Foreign currency The functional currency for each Group entity is determined as the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (its functional currency). Transactions other than those in the functional currency of the entity are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at year end exchange rates. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the retranslation of monetary items, are included in the statement of comprehensive income for the period. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. On consolidation, the statement of comprehensive income of entities with a functional currency other than US Dollars are translated into US Dollars, the Group’s presentational currency, at average rates of exchange. Balance sheet items are translated into US Dollars at year end exchange rates. Exchange differences arising on consolidation of entities with functional currencies other than US Dollars are classified as equity and are recognised in the Group’s translation reserve. Investments in entities accounted for using the equity method The Group’s investments in entities accounted for using the equity method include its interests in associates and jointly controlled (joint ventures) ventures. Associates are those entities in which the Group, directly or indirectly, has significant influence but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies. A jointly controlled entity is in a contractual agreement whereby the Group has joint control, where the Group is entitled to the net assets of the contractual agreement, and not entitled to specific assets and liabilities arising from the agreement. Investments in associates and jointly controlled entities are accounted for using the equity method. Such investments are initially recognised at cost, which includes expenses for the transaction. After initial recognition, the financial statements include the Group’s share in the profit or loss for the year and other comprehensive income of the investee until the date that significant influence or joint control ceases. Investments in joint ventures Interests in joint ventures A joint venture is a contractual agreement where the Group has rights to the net assets of the contractual arrangement and is not entitled to specific assets and liabilities arising from the agreement. Investments in joint venture entities are accounted for using the equity method. After initial recognition, the financial statements include the Group’s share in the profit or loss for the year and other comprehensive income of the investee until the date that significant influence or joint control ceases. Interests in joint operations Joint operation is a contractual arrangement whereby the Group and other parties undertake an economic activity that is subject to joint control which is when the strategic financial and operating policy decisions relating to the activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The joint operations assets and any liabilities incurred jointly with other ventures are recognised in the financial statements of the relevant entity and classified according to their nature. The Group’s share of the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of joint operation entities are combined with the equivalent items in the consolidated financial statements on a line-by-line basis. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of joint ventures and joint operations which are listed in Note 17. Employee Benefits Short-term employee benefits Obligations of short-term employee benefits are recognised as personnel expenses as the corresponding service is provided. The liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably. Stock option plan For equity-settled share-based payment transactions, the Group measures the options granted, and the corresponding increase in equity, directly, at the fair value of the option grant. Subsequent to initial recognition and measurement the estimate of the number of equity instruments for which the service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be satisfied is revised during the vesting period. The cumulative amount recognised is based on the number of equity instruments for which the service and non-market conditions are expected to be satisfied. No adjustments are made in respect of market conditions. 33 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Employee Benefits (continued) Share-Based payment transactions The fair value of the amount payable to employees regarding the rights on the valuation of the shares, which are settled in cash, is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in liabilities during the period that the employees are unconditionally entitled to payment. The liability is remeasured at each balance sheet date and at settlement date based on the fair value of the rights on valuation. Any changes in the fair value of the liability are recognised in income as personnel expenses. Defined health benefit plans The Group's net obligation regarding defined health benefit plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees receive in return for their service in the current period and prior periods. That health benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Any costs of unrecognised past service and the fair value of any plan assets are deducted. The calculation of the liability of the defined health benefit plan is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a potential liability for the Group, the liability to be recognised is limited to the present value of economic costs in the form of future contributions to the plan. To calculate the present value of economic liabilities, any minimum funding requirements applicable are taken into account. Remeasurements of the net defined health benefit obligation, which include: actuarial gains and losses, return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if applicable, excluding interest), are immediately recognised in OCI. The Group determines the net interest on the net amount of defined benefit liabilities (assets) for the period by multiplying them by the discount rate used to measure the defined health benefit obligation. Defined benefit liabilities (assets) for the period take into account the balance at the beginning of the period covered by the financial statements and any changes in the defined health benefit net liability (asset) during the period due to the payment of contributions and benefits. Net interest and other expenses related to defined health benefit plans are recognised in income. Other long-term employee benefits The Group’s net obligation in respect of other long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees receive in return for the service rendered in the current year and previous years. That benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Remeasurements are recognised in the income statement. Benefits of termination of employment relationship The benefits of termination of employment relationship are recognised as an expense when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of such benefits and when the Group recognizes the costs of restructuring. If payments are settled after 12 months from the balance sheet date, then they are discounted to their present values. Taxation Tax expense for the period comprises current tax and deferred tax. Current tax is based on assessable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on temporary differences (i.e. differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of taxable profit). Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method and is provided on all temporary differences with certain limited exceptions as follows. Deferred tax is not provided: in respect of tax payable on undistributed earnings of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures where the Group is able to control the remittance of profits and it is probable that there will be no remittance of past profits earned in the foreseeable future; on the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that does not affect accounting profit or taxable profit and is not a business combination; nor is deferred tax provided on subsequent changes in the carrying value of such assets and liabilities, for example where they are depreciated; or on the initial recognition of any non-tax deductible goodwill. • • • 34 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Taxation (continued) Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered through sufficient future taxable profit. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the statement of comprehensive income, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also taken directly to equity. A company will normally have a legally enforceable right to set off a deferred tax asset against a deferred tax liability when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the taxation authority permits the company to make or receive a single net payment. In the consolidated financial statements, a deferred tax asset of one entity in the Group cannot be offset against a deferred tax liability of another entity in the Group, as there is no legally enforceable right to offset tax assets and liabilities between Group companies. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets, other than land and assets under construction, over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method as follows: Freehold Buildings: 25 to 60 years Leasehold Improvements: Lower of the rental period or useful life considering residual values Floating Craft: Vehicles: 25 to 35 years 5 years Plant and Equipment: 5 to 20 years The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. Assets in the course of construction are carried at cost, less any recognised impairment loss. Costs include professional fees for qualifying assets. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for intended use. Assets held under finance leases are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis as owned assets, except when there is no reasonable certainty that the lessee will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term in which the asset shall be fully depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life. Dry docking costs are capitalised and depreciated over the period in which the economic benefits are received. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Borrowing costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. All other borrowing costs are recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Goodwill The Group tests goodwill annually for impairment, or more frequently if there are indications that goodwill might be impaired. The recoverable amounts are determined from value in use calculations. The key assumptions for the value in use calculations are those regarding the discount rate, growth rates and expected changes to selling prices and costs during the period. Management estimates discount rates using pre-tax rates that reflect current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the cash generating unit. Growth rates are based on management’s forecasts and historical trends. Changes in selling prices and direct costs are based on past practices and expectations of future changes in the market. 35 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Business combinations Business combinations are accounted using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated considering the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of assets, liabilities and the equity interests transferred to the Group when the control of the acquisition is transferred. Acquisition-related costs are recognised in the income statement as incurred. Any goodwill that arises is tested annually for impairment. At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognised at their fair value, except that deferred tax assets or liabilities, and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognised and measured in accordance with IAS 12 Income Taxes and IAS 19 Employee Benefits respectively. When the consideration transferred by the Group in a business combination includes assets or liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition-date fair value and included as part of the consideration transferred in a business combination. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are adjusted retrospectively with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the ‘measurement period’ (which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The subsequent accounting for changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments is recognised in the income statement. Sale of non-controlling interest Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are identified separately from the Group’s equity therein. Non-controlling interests consist of the amount of those interests at the date of the original business combination and the non-controlling interest’s share of changes in equity since the date of the combination. Intangible assets Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. There is no indefinite life intangible asset. An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognised in the income statement when the asset is derecognised. Impairment of tangible and other intangible assets Assets that are subject to amortisation or depreciation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts 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 fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating unit (“CGU”) are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (group of CGUs), and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU (group of CGUs) on a pro rata basis. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. Assets that are subject to amortisation or depreciation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials, spare parts and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution. 36 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Group’s balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. • Trade Receivables: Trade receivables, loans and other amounts receivable are stated at the initial fair value of the amounts due, less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. The amount of the provision is recognised in the income statement. • Investments: Investments are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis where the purchase or sale of an investment is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at the fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs. Where securities are held for trading purposes, gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are included in the income statement for the period. The fair value of financial assets traded in active markets are based on the mid market price the close of trading on the reporting date. Unquoted investments held for trading purposes are stated at fair value through profit and loss as determined by using various valuation techniques, except where fair value cannot be reliably measured, when the investment is held at cost less any provision for impairment. For available-for-sale investments, gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are recognised directly in equity, until the security is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in equity is included in the income statement for the period. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. • • Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and other short-term highly liquid investments that are convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank Borrowings: Interest-bearing bank loans and overdrafts are recorded as the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Finance charges, including premiums payable on settlement or redemption and direct issue costs, are accounted for on an accruals basis in the statement of comprehensive income using the effective interest method and are added to the carrying amount of the instrument to the extent that they are not settled in the period in which they arise. Derivatives The Group periodically uses derivative financial instruments to reduce exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate movements. Derivatives are measured at each balance sheet date at fair value. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value for exchange and interest derivatives are included in the income statement for the period within investment revenue or finance costs. Derivatives embedded in other financial instruments or other host contracts are treated as separate derivatives when their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of host contracts and the host contracts are not carried at fair value, with gains or losses reported in the statement of comprehensive income. Hedge Accounting (Cash flow hedge) The Group seeks to apply hedge accounting (cash flow hedge) in order to manage volatility in the income statement. When a derivative is designated as the hedging instrument in a hedge of the variability in cash flows attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction that could affect profit or loss, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised in other comprehensive income and presented in the hedging reserve in equity. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised immediately in the income statement. Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that the Group will be required to settle that obligation. Provisions are measured at the directors’ best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date and discounted where the effect is material. In the normal course of business in Brazil, the Group is exposed to local legal cases. Provisions for legal cases are made when the Group’s management, together with their legal advisors, consider the probable outcome is a financial settlement against the Group. Provisions are measured at the directors’ best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation based upon legal advice received. For labour claims, the provision is based on prior experience and managements’ best knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. For tax cases, the provision is based on managements’ best knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances and legal advice received. 37 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Construction contracts Shipyard construction contracts in progress represents the gross amount expected to be collected from customers for contract work performed to date. Where the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, revenue and costs are recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the end of the reporting period measured based on the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to date relative to the estimated total contract costs, except where this would not be representative of the stage of completion. Construction contracts in progress is presented as part of trade and other receivables in the balance sheet for all contracts in which costs incurred plus recognised profits exceed progress billings and recognised losses. If progress billings and recognised losses exceed costs incurred plus recognised profits, then the difference is presented as deferred income/revenue in the statement of financial position. Customer advances are presented as deferred income/revenue in the balance sheet. Revenue Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business net of trade discounts and other sales related taxes. Maritime revenue Revenue related to services is recognised when the work in proportion to the stage of completion of the transaction contracted has been performed in accordance with contracted terms. Revenue from construction contracts is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract, Revenue from providing containerised and associated services is recognised on the date in which the services have been performed. Revenue from providing towage services is recognised on the date on which the services have been performed. Revenue from providing agency and logistics services is recognised when the services have been agreed and the transaction has occurred. Investment revenue Interest revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition. Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholders rights to receive payment have been established. Leasing Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases. Assets held under finance leases are recognised as assets of the Group at their fair value at the inception of the lease, or if lower the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged to the statement of comprehensive income. Rentals payable under finance leases are charged to income on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, which are described above, management has made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements. 38 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Provisions (including provision for Brazilian taxes) In the normal course of business in Brazil, the Group is exposed to local legal cases. Provisions for legal cases are made when the Group’s management, together with their legal advisors, consider the probable outcome is a financial settlement against the Group. Provisions are measured at the directors’ best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation based upon legal advice received. For labour claims, the provision is based on prior experience and management’s best knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. For tax cases the provision is based on management’s best knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances and legal advice received. There are uncertainties regarding the interpretation of complex tax regulations and the value and timing of future taxable results. Given the long-term nature and the complexity of existing contracts, differences between the actual results and the assumptions adopted or future changes in such assumptions could require future adjustments to the tax income and expense already recorded. The Group establishes provisions, based on applicable estimates, for possible consequences of auditing by tax authorities of the respective jurisdictions where it operates. The amount of such provisions is based on several factors, such as prior experiences with fiscal audits and different interpretations of the tax regulations by the taxable entity and by the tax authority in question. Such differences in interpretation may arise for the most diverse matters, depending on the conditions in force in the respective domicile of the Group’s entity. Management has considered a range of possible outcomes in relation to provisions, in the context of the uncertainties noted above and they consider that the position taken represents the best estimate at the balance sheet date. Current and deferred tax The Group records assets related to deferred taxes resulting from temporary differences and tax losses between the book value of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that the Group expects to generate sufficient taxable profit based on projections and forecasts prepared by management. Such projections and forecasts include several assumptions regarding the Group’s performance, foreign exchange rates, volume of services, other rates and factors that may differ from present estimates. Under the current Brazilian tax legislation, tax losses do not expire for utilization. However, cumulative tax losses can only be offset by up to 30.0% of the annual taxable profit. Management has considered a range of possible outcomes in relation to deferred tax, in the context of the expected future taxable profits noted above and they consider that the position taken represents the best estimate at the balance sheet date. Impairment of goodwill and intangibles The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets could be susceptible to impairment and are tested annually for impairment. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or cash generating unit “CGU” exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs. Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which impairment testing is performed reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (group of CGUs), and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU (group of CGUs) on a pro rata basis. Management has considered a range of possible outcomes in relation to the assumptions used in calculating the discounted cash flow to support the goodwill and intangible assets. They consider that the position taken represents the best estimate at the balance sheet date, further analysis is included in note 13. 39 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Revenue recognition Shipyard construction contracts in progress represents the gross amount expected to be collected from customers for contract work performed to date. Where the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, revenue and costs are recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the end of the reporting period measured based on the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to date relative to the estimated total contract costs, except where this would not be representative of the stage of completion. The Group also recognises remaining maritime revenue when services have been fulfilled. The recognition of this revenue could be susceptible to timing errors in determining when services or obligations have been delivered, particularly given the Group’s large volume and geographical spread of transactions in progress at year end. Management has considered a range of possible outcomes in relation to the recognition of shipyard construction revenue. They consider that the position taken represents the best estimate at the balance sheet date. Stock option plan The fair value of equity-settled share-based payments are determined using a binomial model, as the awards are equity-settled the fair value is assessed at the date of grant. The assumptions used in determining this fair value include, amongst others, the life of the options, share price volatility, dividend yield, employee turnover and the risk free rate. Expected volatility is determined by calculating the volatility of the Group’s share price over a historical period. Expected dividend yield is based on the Wilson Sons dividend policy. The employee turnover is consistent with recent turnover and is an appropriate assumption for the employees in the plan. In determining the risk free rate the Group utilises the yield on a zero coupon government bond in the currency in which the exercise price is expressed. Management has considered a range of possible outcomes in relation to the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of equity-settled share-based payments. They consider that the position taken represents the best estimate at the balance sheet date. Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with finite useful lives Depreciation and amortisation are charged so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets, other than land and assets under construction, over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are determined based on prior experience and management’s best knowledge, and are reviewed annually. Management has considered a range of possible outcomes in relation to the assumptions used in the estimated useful life of the Group’s assets with finite useful lives. Management performs ongoing reviews of estimated useful lives and they consider that the position taken represents the best estimate at the balance sheet date. Valuation of unquoted investments The fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. The Group uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each reporting date. Valuation techniques used include the use of comparable recent arm’s length transactions, reference to other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants making the maximum use of market inputs and relying as little as possible on entity-specific inputs. Through the Investment Manager management has considered the valuation of investments in particular level 3 assets and they consider that the position taken represents the best estimate at the balance sheet date. New standards and interpretations not yet adopted A number of new standards and amendments to standards can be early adopted and effective for annuaI periods beginning after 1 January 2016; however, the Group has not applied the following new or amended standards in preparing these consolidated financial statements. IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction Contracts and IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes. IFRS 15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Group plans to adopt IFRS 15 in its consolidated financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2018, using the retrospective approach. As a result, the Group will apply all of the requirements of IFRS 15 to each comparative period presented and adjust its consolidated financial statements. 40 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) New standards and interpretations not yet adopted (continued) The Group is currently performing a detailed assessment of the impact resulting from the application of IFRS 15 and expects to disclose additional quantitative information before it adopts IFRS 15. IFRS 9 Financial instruments In July 2014, the International Accounting Standards Board issued the final version of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Group currently plans to apply IFRS 9 initially on 1 January 2018. The actual impact of adopting IFRS 9 on the Group’s consolidated financial statements in 2018 is not known and cannot be reliably estimated because it will be dependent on the financial instruments that the Group holds and economic conditions at that time as well as accounting estimates and judgements that it will make in the future. The new standard will require the Group to revise its accounting processes and internal controls related to reporting financial instruments and these changes are not yet complete. IFRS 16 Leases IFRS 16 introduces a single, on-balance lease sheet accounting model for lessees. A lessee recognises a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. There are optional exemptions for short-term leases and leases of low value items. Lessor accounting remains similar to the current standard – i.e. lessors continue to classify leases as finance or operating leases. IFRS 16 replaces existing leases guidance including IAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease, SIC-15 Operating Leases- Incentives and SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease. IFRS 16 applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The Group has started an initial assessment of the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements. So far, the consolidated financial statements will be impacted, but the Group has not yet quantified all the impacts on its reported assets and liabilities following an adoption of IFRS 16. Other amendments The following new or amended standards are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements: • • • • Disclosure Initiative (Amendments to IAS 7); Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses (Amendments to IAS 12); Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions (Amendments to IFRS 2), and Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28). 3 Revenue An analysis of the Group’s revenue is as follows: Sales of services Revenue from construction contracts Investment income (note 7) All revenue is derived from continuing operations.

As part of the annual impairment test review the carrying value of goodwill has been assessed with reference to its value in use reflecting the projected discounted cash flows of each CGU to which goodwill has been allocated. The cash flows are based on the remaining life of the concession. Future cash flows are derived from the most recent financial budget and for the period of concession remaining. The key assumptions used in determining value in use relate to growth rate, discount rate, inflation, volume, working capital and interest rate. Further projections include sales and operating margins, which are based on past experience, taking into account the effect of known or likely changes in market or operating conditions. Each CGU is assessed for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication of impairment. The stimated average growth rate used does not exceed the historical average for Tecon Rio Grande and Tecon Salvador. The growth rate of 3.7% above inflation has been estimated for Brasco, and a discount rate of 7.6% for all business units has been used. These growth rates reflect the products and industries in Brazil. These medium to long-term growth rates have been reviewed by management during the annual impairment test for 2016 and are considered to be appropriate for the period. After testing goodwill as mentioned above, no impairment losses were recognised for the periods presented. The Directors have considered the following individual sensitivities and are confident that no impairment would arise in any of the cash-generating units in any of the following two circumstances: • • If the discount rate was increased by 30%; or If the cash flow projections of all businesses were reduced by 30%. After testing goodwill as mentioned above, no impairment losses were recognised for the periods presented. The goodwill of Tecon Rio Grande consists of goodwill on the acquisition of Tecon Rio Grande and goodwill incorporated in Tecon Rio Grande upon acquisition. As Tecon Rio Grande has Brazilian Real as its functional currency, the part of the goodwill resulting from the merger of Tecon Rio Grande with other subsidiaries is subject to exchange rate effects. 47 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 14 Other intangible fixed assets Cost At 1 January 2015 Additions Write off Exchange differences At 1 January 2016 Additions Write off Exchange differences At 31 December 2016 Amortisation At 1 January 2015 Charge for the year Write off Exchange differences At 1 January 2016 Charge for the year Write off Exchange differences At 31 December 2016 Carrying amount 31 December 2016 31 December 2015 US$’000 64,348 2,238 (58) (12,579) 53,949 5,277 (292) 5,988 64,922 25,783 5,651 (52) (3,707) 27,675 5,248 (291) 1,846 34,478 30,444 26,274 Intangible fixed assets arose from (i) the acquisition of concession rights for the container and heavy cargo terminal in Salvador in 2000, and the Ponta Norte expansion at Tecon Salvador in 2010 (ii) the implementation of integrated management software (SAP) (iii) the Briclog acquisition in 2013 (Brasco). The additions to intangible assets in the period are mainly attributable to computer software. The breakdown of intangibles by type is as follows: Lease right – Brasco Lease right – Tecon Salvador Computer software – SAP Other computer software Other intangibles Total 31 December 31 December 2016 US$’000 13,853 5,049 1,970 9,371 201 2015 US$’000 11,998 4,624 3,025 6,479 148 30,444 26,274 The computer software is amortised over 5 years following completion of the installation. In November 2016 Tecon Salvador signed the second amendment to the terminal lease agreement, which extends the concession period until March 2050. Therefore, the amortisation expense for the lease right will be measured considering the validity of the lease contract (2050).

Land and buildings with a net book value of US$0.2 million (2015: US$0.2 million) and tugs with a value of US$0.3 million (2015: US$0.5 million) have been given in guarantee of various legal processes. The Group has pledged assets having a carrying amount of approximately US$290.5 million (2015: US$254.1 million) to secure loans granted to the Group. At 31 December 2016, the Group had entered into contractual commitments for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment amounting to US$20.4 million (2015: US$4.6 million). The amount mainly refers to the expansion of Brasco and investments in Tecon Salvador and Tecon Rio Grande. In November 2016 Tecon Salvador S.A signed the second amendment to the terminal lease agreement, which extends the lease term until March 2050. Based on management’s expectation and expert technical advice the estimated useful lives of the quay, terminal area, administrative building, warehouse, electrical substation, office and storage building are longer than the lease contract period. Therefore these assets will be depreciated over the remaining period of the lease contract until 2050. Portainers will be depreciated over their estimated useful life of 20 years. As a result of these changes the depreciation expense of Tecon Salvador for 2016, was US$4.0 million against US$4.5 million that would have been recorded if the change had not occurred. In 2016 the Group reviewed the economic useful life of the shipyard dry-dock and quay in Guarujá. On 1 April 2016 management adjusted the useful life of the shipyard dry-dock and buildings (from 30 years to 60 years), and as result of this change the depreciation expense, on 31 December 2016, was US$0.9 million (against US$1.0 million) that would have been recorded if there were no change. 49 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 16 Principal subsidiaries OCEAN WILSONS (INVESTMENTS) LIMITED Investment holding and dealing company WILSON SONS LIMITED Holding company Place of incorporation and operation Bermuda Method used Effective to account interest* for investment 100%** Consolidation Bermuda 58.25%** Consolidation WILSON SONS DE ADMINISTRAÇÃO E COMÉRCIO LTDA Brazil 58.25% Consolidation Holding company SAVEIROS CAMUYRANO SERVIÇOS MARÍTIMOS LTDA Brazil 58.25% Consolidation Tug operators WILSON, SONS S.A., COMÉRCIO, INDÚSTRIA, E AGÉNCIA DE NAVEGAÇÃO LTDA Brazil 58.25% Consolidation Shipbuilders WILSON, SONS ESTALEIRO LTDA Shipbuilders Brazil 58.25% Consolidation WILSON SONS AGENCIA MARÍTIMA LTDA Brazil 58.25% Consolidation Ship Agents WILSON, SONS NAVEGAÇÃO LTDA Ship Agents WILSON, SONS LOGÍSTICA LTDA Logistics WILSON, SONS TERMINAIS DE CARGAS LTDA Transport services EADI SANTO ANDRÉ TERMINAL DE CARGA LTDA Bonded warehousing WS PARTICIPAҪÕES S.A.

There are no indicators of impairment related to these receivables. As a matter of routine, the Group reviews taxes and levies impacting its business to ensure that payments of such amounts are correctly made and that no amounts are paid unnecessarily. The Group is developing a plan to use its tax credits, respecting the legal term for using tax credits from prior years, and if unable to recover by compensation, requesting reimbursement of these values from the Receita Federal do Brasil (Brazilian Inland Revenue Service). Included in the Group’s trade receivable balances are debtors with a carrying amount of US$9.2 million (2015: US$9.0 million) which are past due but not impaired at the reporting date for which the Group has not provided as there has not been a change in credit quality and the Group believes the amounts are still recoverable. The Group does not hold any collateral over these balances.

Interest is charged at up to 1% per month on the outstanding balances with an additional fine of up to 2% per month. The Group has provided in full for all receivables over 180 days because historical experience is such that receivables that are past due 180 days are generally not recoverable. Included in the Group’s allowance for doubtful debts are individually impaired trade receivables with a balance of US$1.2 million, which are aged greater than 180 days. The impairment recognised represents the difference between the carrying amount of these trade receivables and the present value of the expected settlement proceeds. The Group does not hold any collateral over these balances. 54 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 31 December 31 December 2016 US$’000 2015 US$’000 – – – 1,187 1,187 2016 US$’000 846 (3,128) 3,291 178 1,187 – – – 846 846 2015 US$’000 1,154 (3,329) 3,405 (384) 846 21 Trade and other receivables (continued) Ageing of impaired trade receivables From 0 – 30 days From 31 – 90 days From 91 – 180 days More than 180 days Total Movement in the allowance for doubtful debts Balance at the beginning of the year Amounts written off as uncollectable Increase in allowance recognised in profit or loss Exchange differences Balance at the end of the year In determining recoverability of trade receivables, the Group considers any change in the credit quality of the trade receivable from the date credit was initially granted up to the reporting date. The concentration of credit risk is limited due to the customer base being large and unrelated. The directors believe that there is no further credit provision required in excess of the allowance for doubtful debts. The directors consider that the carrying amount of trade and other receivables approximates their fair value. 22 Bank loans and overdrafts Secured borrowings BNDES – FMM linked to US Dollar¹ BNDES – Real BNDES – linked to US Dollar BNDES – FMM Real¹ BNDES – FINAME Real Total BNDES Banco do Brasil – FMM linked to US Dollar¹ IFC – US Dollar China Construction Bank - US Dollar Santander – US Dollar Eximbank – US Dollar Finimp – US Dollar IFC – Real Total others Total 1.

For some contracts, the corporate guarantee is additional to: (i) a pledge of the respective financed tugboat or (ii) a lien over the logistics and port operations equipment financed. Loans with Banco do Brasil rely on a corporate guarantee from Wilson, Sons de Administração e Comércio Ltda. and a pledge of the respective financed tugboat. The loans that Tecon Salvador holds with IFC are guaranteed by shares of the company, projects’ cash flows, equipment and buildings. The loan agreement that Tecon Rio Grande has with the Export-Import Bank of China for equipment acquisition is guaranteed by a standby letter of credit issued by Itaú BBA S.A which in turn has the pledge on the financed equipment. The loan agreement between Tecon Rio Grande and Santander for equipment acquisition relies on a corporate guarantee from Wilson, Sons de Administração e Comércio Ltda. Undrawn credit facilities At 31 December 2016, the Group had available US$53.2 million of undrawn borrowing facilities. For each disbursement, there is a set of conditions precedent that must be satisfied. 56 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 22 Bank loans and overdrafts (continued) Covenants The Wilson, Sons de Administração e Comércio Ltda. (“WSAC”) holding company, as corporate guarantor, has to comply with financial covenants in both Wilson Sons Estaleiros Ltda and Brasco Logística Offshore Ltda loan agreements signed with BNDES. The subsidiary Tecon Salvador has to observe affirmative and negative covenants stated in its loan agreement with the International Finance Corporation – IFC including the maintenance of specific liquidity ratios and a capital structure requirements.’ The subsidiary Tecon Rio Grande has to comply with financial covenants in its loan agreement with the BNDES and Santander such as a minimum liquidity ratio and capital structure. At 31 December 2016, Tecon Rio Grande was not in compliance with the minimum Net Equity / Total Assets ratio (requirement of not less than 0.60 ratio against an actual ratio of 0.57) demanded by the BNDES contract. The failure to maintain a 0.60 ratio requires a waiver or provision of additional guarantees of at least 130% of the debt’s value within 60 days or prepayment of the debt. The value of the loan affected at 31 December 2016 was US$5.1 million. The breach does not impact our other loan agreements. At 31 December 2016, with the exception of the above covenant breach, the Company was in compliance with all other loan contracts.

No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of US$12.4 million (2015: US$6.1 million) due to the unpredictability of future profit streams. Retranslation of non-current asset valuation deferred tax arises on Brazilian property, plant and equipment held in US dollar functional currency businesses. Deferred tax is calculated on the difference between the historical US Dollar balances recorded in the Group’s accounts and the Brazilian Real balances used in the Group’s Brazilian tax calculations. Deferred tax on exchange variance on loans arises from exchange gains or losses on the Group’s US Dollar and Brazilian Real denominated loans linked to the US Dollar that are not deductible or payable for tax in the period they arise. Exchange gains on these loans are taxable when settled and not in the period in which gains arise. 24 Obligations under finance leases Amounts payable under finance leases Within one year In the second to fifth years inclusive After five years Less future finance charges Present value of lease obligations Less: Amounts due for settlement within 12 months (shown under current liabilities) Amount due for settlement after 12 months Amounts payable under finance leases Within one year In the second to fifth years inclusive After five years Present value of lease obligations Less: Amounts due for settlement within 12 months (shown under current liabilities) Amount due for settlement after 12 months Minimum lease payments 31 December 31 December 2016 US$’000 2015 US$’000 1,669 1,721 – 3,390 (1,094) 2,296 (1,211) 1,085 1,517 2,399 – 3,916 (1,188) 2,728 (1,192) 1,536 Present value of Minimum lease payments 31 December 31 December 2016 US$’000 1,211 1,085 – 2,296 1,211 1,085 2015 US$’000 1,192 1,536 – 2,728 1,192 1,536 It is the Group’s policy to lease certain of its fixtures and equipment under finance leases. The average lease term is 5 years. The average outstanding lease term at 31 December 2016 was 28 months. For the year ended 31 December 2016, the average effective borrowing rate was 16.43% (2015: 16.75%). Interest rates are set at contract date. All leases are denominated in Brazilian Real and include a fixed repayment and a variable finance charge linked to the Brazilian interest rate. Interest rates range from 15.86% to 18.03%. There is a non-significant difference between the fair value and the present value of the Group's lease obligations. The present value is calculated with its own interest rate over the future installments of each contract. The Group’s obligations under finance leases are secured by the lessors’ rights over the leased assets. 58 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 31 December 31 December 2016 US$’000 44,664 4,580 12,583 6,327 103 68,257 2015 US$’000 39,875 17,858 7,704 13,259 93 78,889 25 Trade and other payables Trade creditors Amounts due to construction contract customers (note 20) Other taxes Accruals and deferred income Share based payment liability Total Trade creditors and accruals principally comprise amounts outstanding for trade purposes and ongoing costs.

It is the Group's policy to vigorously contest such claims, many of which appear to have little merit, and to manage such claims through its legal counsel. Both provisions and contingent liability can take a significant amount of time to resolve. In addition to the cases for which the Group booked the provision there are other tax, civil and labour disputes amounting to US$129.9 million (2015: US$84.1 million) where the probability of loss was estimated by the legal counsels as possible. 59 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 26 Provisions (continued) The breakdown of possible claims is described as follows: The analysis of possible losses by type: Tax cases Labour claims Civil and environmental cases 31 December 31 December 2016 US$’000 93,271 25,232 11,411 129,914 2015 US$’000 63,056 16,609 4,453 84,118 The main probable and possible claims against the Group are described below: Tax cases – The Group litigates against governments in respect of assessments considered inappropriate. Labour claims – Most claims involve payment of health risks, additional overtime and other allowances. Civil and environmental cases – Indemnification claims involving material damages, environmental and shipping claims and other contractual disputes. The procedure for classification of legal liabilities as probable, possible or remote loss is undertaken by the external lawyers. Upon receipt of the notification of a new judicial lawsuit, the external lawyer generally classifies it as a possible claim, recording the total amount involved. From 2014, the Group is using the estimated value at risk and not the total amount involved in each process. Exceptionally, if there is sufficient knowledge from the beginning that there is very high or very low risk of loss, the lawyer may classify the claim as probable loss or remote loss. During the course of the lawsuit and considering, for instance, its first judicial decision, legal precedents, arguments of the claimant, thesis under discussion, applicable laws, documentation for the defence and other variables, the lawyer may re-classify the claim as probable loss or remote loss. When classifying the claim as probable loss, the lawyer estimates the amount at risk for such claim. The Group considers as relevant, claims involving amounts, assets or rights over US$1.5 million. 27 Share capital Authorised 50,060,000 ordinary shares of 20p each Issued and fully paid 35,363,040 ordinary shares of 20p each 2016 US$’000 2015 US$’000 16,119 16,119 11,390 11,390 The company has one class of ordinary share which carries no right to fixed income.

The consideration included US$1.9 million in cash and the settlement of US$2.9 million in debt. The transaction also included an additional US$0.8 million payment that is conditional upon future contractual events which were subsequently fulfilled. Following completion of the transaction the Wilson Sons Group holds 100% of the shares of Tecon Salvador S.A. and the Ocean Wilsons Holdings Group has a 58.25% effective interest.

The carrying amount of these assets approximates their fair value. Private investment funds Wilson Sons Limited has investments in private investment funds that are consolidated in the financial statements as cash equivalents. The Group has investments in a private investment fund called Hydrus Fixed Income Private Credit Investment Fund that are consolidated in these financial statements. This private investment fund comprises deposit certificates, financial notes and debentures, with final maturities ranging from January 2016 to September 2021. The Private Investment Fund is marked to fair value on a daily basis against current earnings. This private investment fund does not have significant financial obligations. Any financial obligations are limited to service fees to the asset management company employed to execute investment transactions, audit fees and other similar expenses. The fund’s investments are highly liquid which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Additionally, US Dollar linked investments are made through Itaú Exchange FICFI to preserve the US dollar value of the investment. Cash and cash equivalents held in Brazil amount to US$52.7 million (2015: US$83.3 million). Cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments and not for cash investment purposes. Additions to plant and equipment during the year amounting to US$0.2 million (2015: US$0.4 million) were financed by new finance leases. 61 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 30 Contingent liabilities In the normal course of business in Brazil, the Group continues to be exposed to numerous local legal claims. It is the Group’s policy to contest such claims vigorously, many of which appear to have little merit, and to manage such claims through its legal advisers. The total estimated contingent claims at 31 December 2016 are US$129.9 million (2015: US$84.1 million). These have not been provided for as the directors and the Group’s legal advisors do not consider that there are any probable losses. Contingent liabilities relate to labour, civil and environmental and tax claims. 31 Share options Stock option scheme On 13 November 2013 the board of Wilson Sons Limited approved a Stock Option Plan which allowed for the grant of options to eligible participants to be selected by the board.

At the balance sheet date, the minimum amount due in 2017 by the Group for future minimum lease payments under cancellable operating leases was US$11.2 million (2015: $7.8 million). Tecon Rio Grande The Tecon Rio Grande minimum period extends to 2022 and has an option to renew the concession for a maximum period of 25 years. Due to investments made by the Group in the container terminal, the port authority of Rio Grande has confirmed that the Group has the right to renew the concession period provided the State government remains the authority responsible for this area. The Tecon Rio Grande guaranteed payments consist of two elements: a fixed rental and fee per 1,000 containers moved based on minimum forecast volumes. The amount shown in the accounts is based on the minimum volume forecast. If container volumes moved through the terminal exceed forecast volumes in any given year, additional payments will be required. Tecon Salvador On 16 November 2016 Tecon Salvador signed the second amendment to the lease agreement which extends the lease term for an additional period of 25 years until March 2050 and the Company is obligated to complete minimum expansion and maintenance capital expenditure through to the end of the concession. Minimum expansion investments are budgeted at approximately R$398 million using December 2013 base date values. These investments will be completed in phases during the concession period to guarantee the terminal reaches a capacity of 925,000 TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units) per year. The first phase construction is expected to commence nine months after the amendment signature and will be completed within twenty-four months of the work commencement (total investment of R$255 million). The second phase of construction must be completed by 2030 (total investment of R$29 million) and the third phase of construction must be completed by 2034 (total investment of R$114 million). Additionally, there are investments totaling R$317 million related to the maintenance of the current operating area and equipment replacement that will be completed up to 2050. Tecon Salvador guaranteed payments consist of three elements: a fixed rental, a fee per container handled based on minimum forecast volumes and a fee per ton of non-containerized cargo handled based on minimum forecast volumes.

The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, which includes the borrowings disclosed in note 22, cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings disclosed in the consolidated statement of changes in equity. The Group borrows to fund capital projects and looks to cash flow from these projects to meet repayments. Working capital is funded through cash generated by operating revenues. Externally imposed capital requirement The Group is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. Significant accounting policies Details of significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expense are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in note 2 to the financial statements. Categories of financial instruments Financial assets Designated as fair value through profit or loss Receivables (including cash and cash equivalents and other non-current assets) Financial liabilities Financial instruments classified as amortised cost Financial instruments classified as cash flow hedge (Derivatives) Financial risk management objectives Year ended Year ended 2016 US$’000 2015 US$’000 238,781 279,221 236,155 287,180 (433,500) (437,668) (1,894) (2,886) The Group’s Corporate Treasury function provides services to the business, co-ordinates access to domestic and international financial markets and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group through internal reports. The primary objective is to keep a minimum exposure to those risks by using financial instruments and by assessing and controlling the credit and liquidity risks according to the rules and procedures established by management. These risks include market risk, (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk) credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group may use derivative financial instruments to hedge these risk exposures with Board approval. The Group does not enter into trading financial instruments including derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. 66 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 36 Financial instruments (continued) Credit risk The Group’s principal financial assets are cash, trade and other receivables and trading investments. The Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its bank balances, trade receivables and investments. The amounts presented as receivables in the balance sheet are net of allowances for doubtful receivables. The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. The credit risk on investments held for trading is limited because the counterparties with whom the Group transacts are regulated institutions or banks with high credit ratings. The Company’s appointed Investment Manager, Hanseatic Asset Management LBG, evaluates the credit risk on trading investments prior to and during the investment period. In addition the Company invests in Limited Partnerships and other similar investment vehicles. The level of credit risk associated with such investments is dependent upon the terms and conditions and the management of the investment structures. The Board reviews all investments at its regular meetings from reports prepared by the Company's Investment Manager. The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of accounts receivable. Market risk The Group’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and market prices. Foreign currency risk management The Group undertakes certain transactions denominated or linked to foreign currencies and therefore exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. The Group operates principally in Brazil with a substantial proportion of the Group’s revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities denominated in the Real. Due to the high cost of hedging the Real, the Group does not normally hedge its net exposure to the Real, as the Board does not consider it economically viable. Cash flows from investments in fixed assets are denominated in Real and US Dollars. These investments are subject to currency fluctuations between the time that the price of goods or services are settled and the actual payment date. The resources and their application are monitored with purpose of matching the currency cash flows and due dates. The Group has contracted US Dollar-denominated and Real-denominated debt, and the cash and cash equivalents balances are also US Dollar-denominated and Real-denominated. In general terms, for operating cash flows, the Group seeks to neutralise the currency risk by matching assets (receivables) and liabilities (payments). Furthermore the Group seeks to generate an operating cash surplus in the same currency in which the debt service of each business is denominated. The carrying amount of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the reporting date are as follows: Real Sterling Euro Liabilities Assets 2016 US$’000 2015 US$’000 2016 US$’000 2015 US$’000 206,286 315,553 259,336 372,009 17 – 26 – 1,430 17,576 1,975 5,522 206,303 315,579 278,342 379,506 67 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 36 Financial instruments (continued) Foreign currency sensitivity analysis The Group is primarily exposed to unfavourable movements in the Real on its Brazilian liabilities held by US Dollar functional currency entities. The sensitivity analysis presented in the following sections, which refer to the position on 31 December 2016, estimates the impacts of the Real devaluation against the US Dollar. Three exchange rate scenarios are contemplated: the likely scenario (Probable) and two possible scenarios of deterioration of 25% (Possible) and 50% (Remote) in the exchange rate. The Group uses the Brazilian Central Bank’s “Focus” report to determine the probable scenario. Operation Risk Amount US Dollars Result Total assets Total liabilities BRL BRL 256,549 Exchange Effects 206,286 Exchange Effects Net Effect Operation Risk Amount US Dollars Result Total assets Total liabilities BRL BRL 370,096 Exchange Effects 315,553 Exchange Effects Net Effect 31 December 2016 Exchange rates Possible scenario (25%) 4.37 US$’000 (65,436) 52,616 (12,820) 31 December 2015 Exchange rates Possible scenario (25%) 5.38 US$’000 (101,231) 86,312 (14,919) Probable scenario 3.50 US$’000 (17,658) 14,198 (3,460) Probable scenario 4.30 US$’000 (34,014) 29,001 (5,013) Remote scenario (50%) 5.25 US$’000 (97,288) 78,288 (19,060) Remote scenario (50%) 6.45 US$’000 (146,042) 124,519 (21,523) The Real foreign currency impact is mainly attributable to the exposure of outstanding Real receivables and payables of the Group at year end. In management’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherent foreign exchange risk, as the year end exposure does not reflect the exposure during the year. Interest rate risk management The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as entities in the Group borrow funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The Group holds most of its debts linked to fixed rates. Most of the Group's fixed rates loans are with the FMM (Fundo da Marinha Mercante). Other loans exposed to floating rates are as follows: TJLP (Brazilian Long-Term Interest Rate) for Brazilian Real denominated funding through FINAME credit line to Port and Logistics operations. DI (Brazilian Interbank Interest Rate) for Brazilian Real denominated funding in Logistics operations, and 6-month LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) for US Dollar denominated funding for Port Operations. (Eximbank) The Real-denominated investments yield interest rates corresponding to the DI daily fluctuation for privately issued securities and/or “Selic-Over” government- issued bonds. The US Dollar-denominated investments are part in time deposits, with short-term maturities. The Group’s strategy for managing interest rate risk is to maintain a balanced portfolio of fixed and floating interest rates in order to balance both cost and volatility. The Group may use cash flow hedges to limit its exposure that may result from the variation of floating interest rates. The Group has floating rate financial assets consisting of bank balances principally denominated in US Dollars and Real that bear interest at rates based on the banks floating interest rate. 68 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 36 Financial instruments (continued) Interest rate sensitivity analysis The Group uses two important information sources to estimate the probable scenarios in determining interest rate scenarios, BM&F (Bolsa de Mercadorias e Futuros) and Bloomberg. The following analysis concerns a possible fluctuation of revenue or expenses linked to the transactions and scenarios shown, without considering their fair value. For floating rate liabilities and investments, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding or cash invested at balance sheet date was outstanding or invested for the whole year. 31 December 2016 Transaction Loans – LIBOR Loans – CDI Loans – TJLP Investments – LIBOR Investments – CDI Transaction Risk Loans – LIBOR Loans – TJLP Loans – Fixed Total loans Investments – LIBOR Investments – CDI Total investments LIBOR TJLP None LIBOR CDI Probable scenario 1.70% 11.14% 7.50% 1.88% 11.14% Probable scenario US$’000 (217) – – (217) – (1,650) (1,650) (1,867) Possible scenario 25% 2.13% 13.93% 9.38% 2.31% 13.93% Possible scenario (25%) US$’000 (420) (324) – (744) 195 (232) (37) (781) Remote scenario 50% 2.55% 16.71% 11.25% 2.73% 16.71% Remote scenario (50%) US$’000 (623) (643) – (1,266) 390 1,187 1,577 311 Amount US Dollars 88,041 27,441 260,026 375,508 51,500 51,112 102,612 Result Interest Interest None Income Income Net Income The net effect was obtained by assuming a 12-month period starting 31 December 2016 in which interest rates vary and all other variables are held constant.

The scenarios express the difference between the scenario rate and actual rate. The interest rate risk mix in Brazil is 37.34% at LIBOR and 62.66% at CDI. Investment portfolio Interest rate changes will always impact equity prices. The level and direction of change in equity prices is subject to prevailing local and world economics as well as market sentiment all of which are very difficult to predict with any certainty. Derivative financial instruments The Group may enter into derivatives contracts to manage risks arising from interest rate fluctuations. All such transactions are carried out within the guidelines set by the Wilson Sons Limited Risk Management Committee. Generally the Group seeks to apply hedge accounting in order to manage volatility in profit or loss. The Group uses cash flow hedges to limit its exposure that may result from the variation of floating interest rates. On 16 September 2013, Tecon Salvador entered into an interest rate swap agreement with an initial notional amount of US$74.4 million to hedge a portion of its outstanding floating-rate debt with IFC. On 31 December 2016 the notional amount was US$48.6 million, equivalent to the outstanding debt amount on that date. This swap converts floating interest rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, into fixed-rate interest and expires in March 2020. The derivatives were entered into with Santander Brasil as counterparty and its credit rating was AA, as of 31 December 2016, according to Standard & Poor’s Brazilian local rating scale. Tecon Salvador is required to pay the counterparty a stream of fixed interest payments at rates fixed from 0.553% to 4.250%, according to the schedule agreement, and in turn, receives variable interest payments based on 6-month LIBOR. The net receipts or payments from the swap are recorded as financial expense. Within one year In the second year In the third to fifth years (including) After five years Fair Value Outflows US$’000 (712) (787) (395) – (1,894) Net effect US$’000 (712) (787) (395) – (1,894) (1,894) The fair value of the swap was estimated based on the yield curve as of 31 December 2016, and represents its carrying value. As of 31 December 2016, the interest rate swap balance in other non-current liabilities was US$1.9 million and the balance in accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated balance sheet was US$2.4 million. The net change in fair value of the interest rate swap recorded as other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2016 was an after-tax loss of US$1.4 million. 31 December 2016 Financial Assets Interest Rates Swap Total Derivative Sensitivity Analysis Amount US$’000’s Maturity 48,571 March 2020 Fair Value US$’000’s (1,894) (1,894) This analysis is based on 6-month LIBOR interest rate variances that the Group considered to be reasonably possible at the end of the reporting period. The analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign exchange rates, remain constant and ignores any impact of forecast sales and purchases. Three scenarios were simulated: the likely scenario (Probable) and two possible scenarios of reduction of 25% (Possible) and 50% (Remote) in the interest rate. 31 December 2016 Remote Possible scenario (25%) scenario (50%) US$’000 (2,221) US$’000 (2,558) Probable scenario US$’000 (1,889) 70 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 36 Financial instruments (continued) Cash Flow Hedge The Group applies hedge accounting for transactions in order to manage the volatility in earnings. The swap is designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge. As such, the swap is accounted for as an asset or a liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The effective portion of changes in fair value of the derivative is recognised in other comprehensive income and presented as an asset revaluation reserve in equity. Any ineffective portion of changes in fair value of the derivative is recognised immediately in the profit or loss. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting operations, expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the designation is revoked, the model accounting hedges (hedge accounting) is discontinued prospectively when there is no more expectation for the forecasted transaction and any amount included in equity is reclassified to the profit or loss. On the initial designation of the derivative as a hedging instrument, the Group formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged transaction, including the risk management objective and strategy on the implementation of the hedge and the hedged risk, together with the methods that will be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the hedging relationship. The Group is utilising the dollar offset method to assess the effectiveness of the swap, analysing whether the hedging instruments are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the respective hedged items attributable to the hedged risk and if the actual results for each coverage are within the range from 80–125%. Under this methodology, the swap was deemed to be highly effective for the period ended 31 December 2016. There was no hedge ineffectiveness recognised in profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 2016. Market price sensitivity By the nature of its activities, the Group's investments are exposed to market price fluctuations. However the portfolio as a whole does not correlate exactly to any Stock Exchange Index as it is invested in a diversified range of markets. The Investment Manager and the Board monitor the portfolio valuation on a regular basis and consideration is given to hedging the portfolio against large market movements. The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to market price risks at the year end and shows what the impact would be if market prices had been 10 per cent higher or lower at the end of the financial year. The amounts below indicate an increase in profit or loss and total equity where market prices increase by 10 per cent, assuming all other variables are constant. A fall in market prices of 10 per cent would give rise to an equal fall in profit or loss and total equity. Profit or loss Total equity Credit risk management 2016 US$’000 23,878 23,878 2015 US$’000 23,616 23,616 Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group’s sales policy is subordinated to the credit sales rules set by management, which seeks to mitigate any loss from customers’ delinquency. Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of accounts receivable. Trade and other receivables disclosed in the balance sheet are shown net of the allowance for doubtful debts. The allowance is booked whenever a loss is identified, which based on past experience is an indication of impaired cash flows. Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited primarily transacts with regulated institutions on normal market terms which are trade date plus one to three days. The levels of amounts outstanding from brokers are regularly reviewed by the Investment Manager. The duration of credit risk associated with the investment transaction is the period between the date the transaction took place, the trade date and the date the stock and cash are transferred, and the settlement date. The level of risk during the period is the difference between the value of the original transaction and its replacement with a new transaction. In addition Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited invests in Limited Partnerships and other similar investment vehicles. The level of credit risk associated with such investments is dependent upon the terms and conditions and the management of the investment structures. The Board reviews all investments at its regular meetings from reports prepared by the company's Investment Manager. 71 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 36 Financial instruments (continued) Liquidity risk management Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in fulfilling obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled with cash payments or other financial asset. The Group's approach in managing liquidity is to ensure that the Group always has sufficient liquidity to fulfil the obligations that expire, under normal and stress conditions, without causing unacceptable losses or risk damage to the reputation of the Group. Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of directors. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The Group uses costing based on activities to price the products and services which assist in monitoring cash flow requirements and optimizing the return on cash investments. Normally the Group ensures it has sufficient cash reserves to meet the expected operational expenses, including financial obligations. This practice excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot be reasonably foreseen. The following tables detail the Group's remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. 31 December 2016 Non-interest bearing Finance lease liability Variable interest rate instruments Fixed interest rate instruments 31 December 2015 Non-interest bearing Finance lease liability Variable interest rate instruments Fixed interest rate instruments Weighted average effective interest rate % – 16.43% 3.73% 2.85% – 16.75% 3.22% 2.91% Less than 12 months US$’000 71,556 1,211 27,762 22,018 1-5 years US$’000 – 1,085 75,307 79,675 122,547 156,067 82,621 1,192 17,292 24,198 – 1,536 68,460 79,767 125,303 149,763 5+ years US$’000 Total US$’000 – – 12,435 158,333 170,768 – – 9,407 164,631 174,038 71,556 2,296 115,504 260,026 449,382 82,621 2,728 95,159 268,596 449,104 The Group expects to meet its other obligations from operating cash flows and proceeds of maturing financial assets. Fair value of financial instruments The fair value of non-derivative financial assets traded on active liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices. The carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the financial statements approximate their fair value. The fair value of financial assets and liabilities traded in active markets are based on quoted market prices at the close of trading on 31 December 2016. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Company utilise the last traded market prices. 72 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 36 Financial instruments (continued) Fair value measurements recognised in the statement of financial position The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which fair value is observable: Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and Level 3 Inputs for the asset that are not based on observable market data. Fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the assets or liability that are not based on observable data (unobservable inputs). The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2. If one of more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. 31 December 2016 Financial assets at FVTPL Level 1 US$’000 Level 2 US$’000 Level 3 US$’000 Total US$’000 Non-derivative financial assets for trading 10,028 128,229 100,524 238,781 31 December 2015 Financial assets at FVTPL Level 1 US$’000 Level 2 US$’000 Level 3 US$’000 Total US$’000 Non-derivative financial assets for trading 3,885 138,100 94,170 236,155 Valuation Process Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets and are classified within Level I include active listed equities. The Group does not adjust the quoted price for these instruments. Financial instruments that trade in markets that are not considered active but are valued based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified within Level 2. These include certain private investments that are traded over the counter. As Level 2 investments include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information. Investments classified within Level 3 have significant unobservable inputs as they trade infrequently. Level 3 instruments include holdings in Limited Partnerships and other funds. As observable prices are not available for these securities, the Company values these based on an estimate of their fair value, which is determined as follows: (i) For entities that have recently begun trading and for which detailed financial information is not available, the valuation will be determined with reference to the original cost plus any further drawdowns less any distributions received. This will be adjusted by reference to more recent benchmark subscriptions and investments which give a guide to fair value or where there are other factors that indicate there has been a significant change in fair value. (ii) For more established investments, the valuation will be determined by reference to recent financial information received from the underlying entity. This underlying information is determined in accordance with International Private Equity and Venture Capital Guidelines and is determined using methodologies that include applying an average sector earnings multiple to operating profits, reference to the valuation of the underlying net asset base and discounted cash flows. Level 3 valuations are reviewed on a quarterly basis by the Investment Manager who reports to the Board quarterly. The Investment Manager considers the appropriateness of the valuation model inputs used and the basis of the techniques used to ensure they are in line with industry standards. In selecting the most appropriate valuation model the Investment Manager considers historical alignment to actual market transactions. 73 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2016 Notes to the Accounts 36 Financial instruments (continued) None of the Group’s investments have moved between classification levels in the year and therefore no reconciliation is necessary. Sensitivity analysis in relation to Level 3 investments has been included in the market price risk management analysis where the Group has shown impacts to the value of investments if markets prices had been 10% higher or lower at the end of the financial year.

In accordance with Brazilian law, eligible employees with greater than ten years service acquire the right to remain in the plan following retirement or termination of employment, generating a post-employment commitment for the Group. Ex-employees remaining in the plan will be liable for paying the full cost of their continued scheme membership. The future actuarial liability for the Group relates to the potential increase in plan costs resulting from additional claims as a result of the expanded membership of the scheme.
