PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

NIGERIAN ECONOMY

The year 2017 commenced with the Federal

Government announcing a series of projections for

growth and recovery in the aftermath of the

recession of 2016. In the first quarter of the year, the

Federal Government launched the Economic

Recovery and Growth Plan aimed at stemming the

slide in the economy, and to derive increasingly

higher revenues from non-oil sectors to support key

infrastructural development programs, as well as

achieve sustainable diversification of the economy

amongst other objectives.

These projections, however, encountered temporary

setbacks due to the delayed passage of the 2017

budget on which these growth plans were

predicated, and, just like the previous year, 2017

budget also suffered similar fate with its attendant

consequences on the economy and delayed

infrastructural projects.

The Federal Government also adopted several

initiatives in the year, particularly in the oil sector, to

gradually exit the country from perpetual importation

of petroleum products and to ensure self-reliance in

the production of the commodities, with the

introduction and adoption of a policy on modular

refineries. The modular refinery initiative is expected

to reduce petroleum products importation by about

60% by end of 2018, ostensively by the hyped up

commitments to the initiative.

Distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen, Shareholders of Petrodata Management Company Limited, and my Co-

ndDirectors, I welcome you all to the 22 Annual General Meeting of our Company. Permit me to present to you the report of our stewardship for the year ended December

st31 2017.

Chairman’sStatement

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

Chairman’sStatement

Engr. B.A Soyode

Chairman Board of Directors

TURNOVER

In spite of the aforementioned challenges, your

Company posted a turnover of N520.8million in the

year under review, about 10% above the N473million

recorded in 2016, while Profit after tax increased by

27% to N126million in the year 2017.

I am pleased to inform you that your Board gave the

necessary approval for the commencement of

construction of the first phase of our permanent site,

to which we plan to relocate our business on or before

the end of the current financial year. As an aside, the

foundation laying ceremony of the building took place rdon Monday 23 April, 2018. It is rather disappointing,

however, that only very few of the shareholders

invited graced the occasion.

DIVIDEND

The Board of Directors is proposing a dividend of N3

per N10.00 share held by each shareholder,

representing a 50% increase over the dividend in

2016. We especially want to thank you, our

shareholders, for your patience and confidence in the

Board and Management of your Company. The

approved dividend will be paid to all shareholders,

who might have completed the e-dividend mandate

form, immediately after this meeting.

STAFF DEVELOPMENT

As part of our strategic policy for capacity building of

staff to enhance their effectiveness and productivity,

your company sponsored some managerial cadre

staff to the Executive Education Programme at the

Lagos Business School (LBS) in the year. We hope to

continue effective implementation of this policy in the

coming years in order to ensure that our staff surpass

their previous achievements, and to position the

Company for smooth succession wherever and

whenever necessary in the Organization.

On your behalf and Board Members, I wish to thank

our Management and dedicated staff for their hard

work in this austere business operating environment,

and exhort them to greater achievement in future.

OBITUARY

It is with utmost sadness and deepest regret that I have to

announce to you the demise of our beloved co-director, Mr

Tek Koroye, who passed away suddenly after a brief illness

in November 2017. We have since performed the

necessary obligations to his family. We shall surely miss

his wise counsel and contributions to the deliberations of

the Board as well as his generally buoyant mood. May his

soul continue to rest in perfect peace.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

Having survived the recession of 2016 albeit with great

difficulty, the Company is expected by your Board, with

great optimism, to continue to grow with the increasing

opportunities to support our proposed diversification in

the e-business domain.

In view of the foregoing, your Board and Management will

continue to strive assiduously to take advantage of the

prospective improvement in the business environment,

resulting from the increase in oil prices and the relative

stability in the Niger Delta to continue to add value to your

investment.

CONCLUSION

I thank you all for your continuing support, patience and

understanding and wish you safe journey back to your

respective destinations.

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

Dear Shareholders, I am delighted ndto welcome you to the 22 Annual

General Meeting of your company and to present your company's scorecard for the 2017 financial year.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

The Nigerian economy showed

some growth, with a real GDP

growth of 1.92% in Q4, and

overall growth of 0.83% in 2017, compared to the

contraction of 1.58% witnessed in the previous year.

This is attributable to several factors including the

availability of forex for importation of raw materials

and machinery. The Central Bank in its efforts to

strengthen the Naira also introduced several monetary

policies to curb overdependence on parallel market

and bureau de change operators for forex demands.

This initiative was responsible for marginal boosts

recorded in the activities of small and medium scale

enterprises in the year as part of diversification efforts

of the present administration.

The Oil sector grew by over 4% overall in 2017 with

production rising to N1.91 million barrels in Q3 to over

N2Million Barrels per day in Quarter 4 and average oil

price was $45.7 in 2017. Inflation was on a downward

trend through the year and external reserve grew by

48%, to about $38Bn.

It is hopeful that with the Central Bank of Nigeria's

commitment to continue with its intervention policy,

the naira will stabilize against the dollar in the

immediate, while legitimate users of forex will continue

to have unhindered access to forex.,

Managing Director’sReport

BUSINESS REVIEW

Year 2017 was a very important year for

your company, as we took bold steps in

three core growth areas for our

business. First was, commencing the

physical development of our permanent

site as a result of the danger posed by

our proximity to OLUSOSUN, the Lagos

state dump site and threat from Ogun

state government to revoke the

certificate of occupancy, the second was embarking on

further diversification, through our Joint Venture

Partner, TGS and third was providing back-up storage

facility for National Data Repository (NDR) as we strived

to enhance overall shareholders' value and improve our

balance sheet.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am happy to report to you that

we made good progress on these identified indices,

despite the challenges in the economy and operating

environment. As reported last year, the tender process

and award for construction of the Phase one building at

the permanent site along the Lagos Ibadan express way

commenced in the last quarter of the year, in order to

secure and take possession, we commenced with the

perimeter fence which was completed in December

2017. The ceremonial foundation/ground breaking

ceremony recently took place in April 2018 witnessed

by the directors, some shareholders and staff. For cost

savings, we have adopted a modified supervised direct

labor for the first phase. Thankfully by the Grace of

GOD, your company will relocate permanently to this

new site by December 2018, when the first phase is

expected to have been completed.

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

Our JV Partnership project with TGS took off as we

received complete data from DPR through CGG, and

commenced the reprocessing of a text line chosen.

Marketing to potential offtakes will commence prior to

full re-processing. We have also submitted two

supplements for approval in respect of two projects

involving acquisition of multi Beam and Coring data

over the entire Niger Delta.

Your company achieved a feat in convincing the Department of Petroleum Resources, (DPR) of our capability to stores and manage the physical seismic tapes backups from the National Data Repository (NDR).

PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW

Our Turnover increased by 10% above 2016 figures, also gross profit was over 25% above previous year, “using less to produce more”, revenue from other income reduced significantly as FX gain reduced due to stability in the foreign exchange market. As such, our core business contributed more to our revenue. Your company's assets and shareholders' funds grew by 18% and 20% respectively.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

We will take advantage of relocating to the new site to expand the e-business side of our portfolio, our strategy is to provide disaster recovery and cloud services to small and medium scale enterprises and non-mission critical businesses. Your company will require additional fund injection for these new area of business, conservatively about $2.5Million will be required over the next 3 years to be spent on acquisition of servers and internet backbone. We have commenced preliminary discussion with the Bank of Industry with a view to taking advantage of the local

content development fund specifically for the Oil and Gas sector.We are confident that, the new site will project us more as a mid-range data service provider for mostly SME's and mid-sized companies. As we witness improvement in oil production due to the relative calmness in the Niger Delta area, Government is expected to consolidate on this feat to further increase oil outputs and meet up with its OPEC Quota, this in turn, is expected to stimulate exploration activities and further diversify the economy with the gains from oil sales. We are positioned with our Joint Venture partner, TGS, to benefit from the planned oil block licensing round, by making high-quality data available in the deep-water Niger Delta to prospective investors.

APPRECIATION

I would like to express my gratitude to the Board of

Directors and our Shareholders for their continued

support. I use this opportunity to thank our staff for

their loyalty and dedication throughout these

challenging times.

Thank you

1. Presentation of Financial Statements

REPORTING ENTITY

Petrodata Management Service Limited was incorporated in October 5, 1994 as a private Limited Liability Company, and is domiciled in Nigeria. The address of its registered office is Motorways Center, 1 Motorways Avenue, Alausa, Ikeja, Lagos. The Company is principally enagaed in the provision of data storage and manangement for Clients in the petroleum, financial and other sectors of the economy.

BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a) Statement of Compliance

The financial statements of the company are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and in the manner required by the Companies and Allied Matter Act of Nigeria and the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria Act, 2011.

An explanation of how IFRSs affects the reported financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company are provided in the financial statements.

(b) Basis of Measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities are stated on a fair value basis of measurement. Property, Plant and equipment is stated at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given at the time of acquisition. Subsequent measurement of Property, Plant and Equipment is shown at cost. Employee benefits are recognised on a present value basis. All other assets, liabilities and provisions are initially measured Financial instruments are measured at fair value.

(c) Functional and Presentation Currency

These financial statements are presented in Nigerian Naira which is the company's functional currency. In certain instances, financial information presented in Nigerian Naira are rounded to the nearest thousand

New Acounting Standards issued but not yet Effective

The following are standards issued by the IASB but not yet effective. The company's assessment of the impact of these new or amended standards is that there will not be material impact on the financial statement.

Accounting Policies

IFRS 9: Financial Instruments - Classification and Measurement

IFRS 9 as issued reflects the first phase of the IASB's work on the replacement of IAS 39 and applies to classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities as defined in IAS 39. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. IFRS 9 requires financial assets to be classified into two measurement categories: those measured at fair value and those measured at amortised cost. The determination is made at initial recognition. The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing its financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the instrument. For financial liabilities, the standard retains most of the IAS 39 requirements. The main change is that, in cases where the fair value option is taken for financial liabilities, the part of a fair value change due to an entity's own credit risk is recorded in other comprehensive income rather than the income statement, unless this creates a qualitative mismatch. The adoption of the first phase of IFRS 9 will have an effect on the classification and measurement of the Company's financial assets, we will now have two main categories of financial assets i.e. fair value and amortized cost (as opposed to the four categories prescribed by IAS 39 - fair value through profit & loss, loans & receivables, held to maturity and available for sale financial assets) but will potentially have no impact on classification and measurements of financial liabilities. The Company intends to adopt IFRS 9 not later than the accounting period beginning 1 January 2018.

IFRS 15: Revenue from Contract with Customers IFRS 15 specifies how and when an IFRS reporter will recognise revenue as well as requiring such entities to provide users of financial statements with more informative, relevant disclosures. The objective of this standard is to establish the principle that entity shall apply to report useful information to the user of financial statement the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flow arising from contract with customers.

IFRS 16: Leases

IFRS 16 specifies how an IFRS reporter will recognise, measure, present and discloses leases. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Lessors continue to classify leases as operating or finance, with IFRS 16's approach to lessor accounting substantially unchanged from its predecessor, IAS 17. This standard was issued on 13 January 2016 and will become applicable on 1 January 2019.

1.1 Accounting Estimates and Judgements

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates is revised and in any future periods affected.

Judgements made in the application of IFRS that could have a significant effect on the financial statements and estimates with a risk of adjustment in future are as follows:

Recovery of deferred tax assets temporary differences as management considers that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilise those temporary differences..

Estimation of economic life of Property, Plant and Equipment Impairment - the company assesses impairment of all receivables at reporting date by evaluating any issue

particular to an asset that may lead to impairment.

25

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

1.2 Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are tangible assets which the company holds for its own use or for rental to others and which are expected to be used for more than one period.

An item of property, plant and equipment is recognised as an asset when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company, and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

Property, plant and equipment is initially measured at cost. Cost includes all of the expenditure which is directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of the asset, including the capitalisation of borrowing costs on qualifying assets and adjustments in respect of hedge accounting, where appropriate.

Depreciation of an asset commences when the asset is available for use as intended by management. Depreciation is charged to write off the asset's carrying amount over its estimated useful life to its estimated residual value, using a method that best reflects the pattern in which the asset's economic benefits are consumed by the company. Leased assets are depreciated in a consistent manner over the shorter of their expected useful lives and the lease term. Depreciation is not charged to an asset if its estimated residual value exceeds or is equal to its carrying amount. Depreciation of an asset ceases at the earlier of the date that the asset is classified as held for sale or derecognised.

The useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment have been assessed as follows:

The residual value, useful life and depreciation method of each asset are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. If the expectations differ from previous estimates, the change is accounted for prospectively as a change in accounting estimate.

The depreciation charge for each period is recognised in profit or loss unless it is included in the carrying amount of another asset.

Impairment tests are performed on property, plant and equipment when there is an indicator that they may be impaired. When the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is assessed to be higher than the estimated recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss to bring the carrying amount in line with the recoverable amount.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its continued use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment is included in profit or loss when the item is derecognised. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item.

1.3 Intangible Assets

Intangible assets comprise acquired proprietary tools and capitalised computer software not integral to a related item of hardware.

(a) Research and Development Costs

All research and development costs are expensed as incurred. These costs generally consist of professional services provided by third parties and compensation costs of employees.

Unearned course development costs are capitalised when it is probable that that future economic benefit associated with the item will flow to the entity. Capitalised development costs are amortised on a straightline basis over the period of their expected benefits.

Accounting Policies

26

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

(b) Purchased Computer Software

The Company capitalises costs related to software developed or obtained for internal use. These assets are included in property and equipment in the balance sheet, relate to the Company's accounting, product delivery and other systems. Such costs generally consist of direct costs for third-party license fees, each case incurred either during the application development stage or in connection with upgrades professional services provided by third parties and employee compensation, in and each case incurred enhancements that increase functionality. Such costs are depreciated over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. Where the computer software is not an integral part of the hardware, the costs are accounted for separately as intangible assets.

After initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. The residual value of intangible assets is assumed to be zero. An asset's carrying amount is written down to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

(c) Ammortisation of Software

Amortization is calculated to write off the cost of intangible assets less their estimated residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, and is recognised in profit or loss. The estimated useful life for the current and comparative period is as follows:

- Intangible Assets 5 years

1.4 Financial Instruments

Classification

The Company's financial instruments include cash, cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables, all of which are short-term in nature and, accordingly, approximate fair value. Additionally, the entity invests in short-term investments that are measured at fair value.

Recognition and Measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised at their fair value plus in the case of all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition. Purchases and sales of financial instruments are measured on a settlement-date basis.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments, issued by the company, are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Investments made by the company which are classified as available-for-sale, and are measured at subsequent reporting dates at fair value.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair values of quoted investments and unit trusts in active markets are based on current market prices.

Accounting Policies

27

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

(a) Fair Value Hierachy

Fair values are determined according to the following hierarchy based on the requirements in IFRS 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures':

– Level 1: quoted market prices: financial assets and liabilities with quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

– Level 2: valuation techniques using observable inputs: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in inactive markets and financial assets and liabilities valued using models where all significant inputs are observable.

– Level 3: valuation techniques using significant unobservable inputs: financial assets and liabilities valued using valuation techniques where one or more significant inputs are unobservable.

Financial Assets Classification

Financial assets are classified into the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss; loans and receivables, held-to-maturity and available-for-sale financial assets. Management determines the classification of financial assets at initial recognition; this classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial asset as follows.

(b) Loans and Receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These arise when the company provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of trading the receivable. Subsequent to initial recognition loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment losses.

(c) Available-for-Sale

Available -for-sale instruments are those intended to be held for an indefinite period of time, which may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity prices. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value on the statement of financial position.

(d) Held-to-Maturity

Held- to-maturity investments are non -derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that management has both the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. The consolidated entity does not currently hold financial assets that are fair valued through Profit or loss.

(e) Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value, generally being their issue proceeds net of transaction costs incurred. Financial liabilities are subsequently stated at amortised cost and interest is recognised over the period of the borrowing using the effective interest method.

Accounting Policies

28

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

Accounting Policies

(f) Gains and Losses

Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the 'financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' category are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognised in comprehensive income, until the financial asset is derecognised or impaired at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss.

(g) Effective Interest Method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees on points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. Effective Interest rate are not applied on debt Instrument payable within one or less than a year

(h) Offsetting Financial Instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or, realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Derecognition

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the entity has also transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership.

Impairment of Financial Assets

(I) Assets carried at amortised cost

At each reporting date, the company assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are recognised if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a 'loss event') and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.

The company first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the company determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it then includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment.

Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognised are not included in the collective assessment of impairment. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the assets' carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows

29

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate

The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss. If a loan has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract

When a loan is uncollectible, it is written off against the related provision for loan impairment. Such loans are written off after all the necessary procedures have been completed and the amount of the loss has been determined. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off decrease the amount of the provision for loan impairment in profit or loss.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised (such as an improvement in the debtor's credit rating), the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed by adjusting the allowance account. The reversal shall not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised at the date the impairment is

(ii) Assets Carried at Fair Value

At each reporting date, the company assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. In the case of investments classified as available-for- sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered in determining whether the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss - measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss - is removed from comprehensive income and recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss on equity instruments classified as available-for-sale are not subsequently reversed through profit or loss, any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognised in other comprehensive income. However, if in a subsequent period the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available-for-sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

Trade and Other Receivables

Trade receivables and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amounts due, less any provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within xxx days and are presented as current assets unless collection is not expected for more than 12 months after the reporting date.

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is raised when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

The amount of the impairment allowance is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cashflows. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries

Accounting Policies

30

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

of amounts previously written off are credited against other expense in profit or loss.

Trade and Other Payables

Trade payables are initially measured at fair value, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These are initially and subsequently recorded at fair value.

Derivatives

Derivative financial instruments, which are not designated as hedging instruments, consisting of foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps, are initially measured at fair value on the contract date, and are re-measured to fair value at subsequent reporting dates.

Derivatives embedded in other financial instruments or other non-financial host contracts are treated as separate derivatives when their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contract and the host contract is not carried at fair value with unrealised gains or losses reported in profit or loss.

Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are recognised in profit or loss as they arise.

Derivatives are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss - held for trading.

Held to Maturity

These financial assets are initially measured at fair value plus direct transaction costs.

At subsequent reporting dates these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment loss recognised to reflect irrecoverable amounts. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, and is measured as the difference between the investment's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition. Impairment losses are reversed in subsequent periods when an increase in the investment's recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, subject to the restriction that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed shall not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.

Financial assets that the company has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity.

1.5 Tax

Current Tax Assets and Liabilities

Current tax for current and prior periods is, to the extent unpaid, recognised as a liability. If the amount already paid in respect of current and prior periods exceeds the amount due for those periods, the excess is recognised as an asset.

Current tax liabilities (assets) for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be paid to

1.8 Impairment of Assets

The company assesses at each end of the reporting period whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset.

Irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, the company also: Tests intangible assets with an indefinite useful life or intangible assets not yet available for use for

impairment annually by comparing its carrying amount with its recoverable amount. This impairment test is performed during the annual period and at the same time every period.

Tests goodwill acquired in a business combination for impairment annually.

If there is any indication that an asset may be impaired, the recoverable amount is estimated for the individual asset. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs is determined.

The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.

Accounting Policies

(recovered from) the tax authorities, using the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities

A deferred tax asset is recognised for the carry forward of unused tax losses and unused WHT credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses and unused WHT credits can be utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

1.6 Leases

Leases are classified as finance lease when it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to enter into an operating lease are also spread on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

1.7 Inventories

Inventories are unutilised consumables representing the unnutilised portion of stationery purchased for the production of training materials.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value on the first-in-first-out basis. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

32

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

If the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. That reduction is an impairment loss.

An impairment loss of assets carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation or amortisation is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease.

An entity assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised in prior periods for assets other than goodwill may no longer exist or may have decreased. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amounts of those assets are estimated.

The increased carrying amount of an asset other than goodwill attributable to a reversal of an impairment loss does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior periods.

A reversal of an impairment loss of assets carried at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortisation other than goodwill is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Any reversal of an impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation increase.

1.9 Share Capital and Equity

Ordinary Shares are classified as equity and are recorded as the proceeds received not of incremental external costs directly attributable to the issue.

Earnings per Share

The company presents basic and diluted earnings per share data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares shareholders of the company by the held.

Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

1.10 Compound Instruments

A related party is a person or entity that is related to the entity that is preparing its financial statements (referred to as the 'reporting entity') [IAS 24.9].

(a) A person or a close member of that person's family is related to a reporting entity if that person:

(I) has control or joint control over the reporting entity; (ii) has significant influence over the reporting entity; or (iii) is a member of the key management personnel of the reporting entity or of a parent of the reporting entity.

(b) An entity is related to a reporting entity if any of the following conditions applies:

(I) The entity and the reporting entity are members of the same group (which means that each parent, subsidiary and fellow subsidiary is related to the others).

(ii) One entity is an associate or joint venture of the other entity (or an associate or joint venture of a member of a group of which the other entity is a member).

(iii) Both entities are joint ventures of the same third party.

(iv) One entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the other entity is an associate of the third entity.

(v) The entity is a post-employment defined benefit plan for the benefit of employees of either the reporting

entity or an entity related to the reporting entity. If the reporting entity is itself such a plan, the sponsoring

employers are also related to the reporting entity.

(vi) The entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person identified in

(vii) A person identified in (a)(i) has significant influence over the entity or is a member of the key

management personnel of the entity (or of a parent of the entity). (viii) The entity, or any member of a group of which it is a part, provides key management personnel services

to the reporting entity or to the parent of the reporting entity.

1.11 Employee Benefits

Short-term employee benefits

The cost of short-term employee benefits, (those payable within 12 months after the service is rendered, such as paid vacation leave and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits such as medical care), are recognised in the period in which the service is rendered and are not discounted.

The expected cost of compensated absences is recognised as an expense as the employees render services that increase their entitlement or, in the case of non-accumulating absences, when the absence occurs.

The expected cost of bonus payments is recognised as an expense when there is a legal or constructive obligation to make such payments as a result of past performance.

Provisions for leave pay and bonuses are recognised as a liability in the financial statements.

Pension Fund Obligations

The Company operates a defined contribution scheme as stipulated in the new amended Pension Reforms Act 2004. Under the scheme, the Company and Employees pay fixed contributions of 10 and 8 percent respectively into a separate entity (Pension Fund Administrator) chosen by the employee. Once paid, the company has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

1.12 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the entity has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that the company will be required to settle that obligation, and a the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using current pre- tax rate specific to the liability. The increase in provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

1.13 Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the current tax payable and deferred tax.

The current tax payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported

Accounting Policies

34

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

in the statement of comprehensive income 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 company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method corresponding tax bases used in Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of the reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax is charged or credited to profit or loss for the period, except to the extent that the tax arises from a transaction or event which is recognised, in the same or a different period, outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax is charged or profit or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax is charged or different period, outside profit or loss.

1.14 Revenue

Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business net of VAT and other related sales taxes.

Cost of Sales

Revenue is recognised generally on completion or on a straight line basis over the period of services provided unless a better method reflects the stage completion.

Stage completion is measured by reference to labour hours incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated hours for each contract. Where the contract outcome cannot be reliably estimated, revenue is only recognised to the extent of the recoverable costs incurred to date.

1.15 Other Income

Investment income Investment income comprises realised and unrealised gains on investments, interest income and dividend income.

Interest income Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and 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.

Accounting Policies

35

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

Dividend income Dividend Income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.

1.16 Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset until such time as the asset is ready for its intended use. The amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined as follows:

Actual borrowing costs on funds specifically borrowed for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset less any temporary investment of those borrowings.

Weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the entity on funds generally borrowed for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. The borrowing costs capitalised do not exceed the total borrowing costs incurred.

The capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when: Expenditures for the asset have occurred; Borrowing costs have been incurred, and Activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress.

Capitalisation is suspended during extended periods in which active development is interrupted.

Capitalisation ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are complete.

All other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

1.17 Translation of Foreign Currencies

Foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. The functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates, which is the Nigerian Naira.

Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end closing exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.

At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

1.18 Interest Bearing Liabilities

All debentures, loans and borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, being the amount received less attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest bearing liabilities are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings on an effective interest basis.

Accounting Policies

36

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

1.19 Finance Cost

Finance costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

Finance costs include interest on debentures, bank overdrafts and short-term borrowings, amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings, amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings, finance lease charges and certain exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings.

PETRODATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31, 2017

Financial Risk Management

The company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk, cash flow interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

The company's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the company's financial performance. The company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures. Risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (company treasury) under policies approved by the board. Company treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the company's operating units. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

Liquidity Risk

The company's risk to liquidity is a result of the funds available to cover future commitments. The company manages liquidity risk through an ongoing review of future commitments and credit facilities.

Credit Risk

Credit risk consists mainly of cash deposits, cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and trade debtors. The company only deposits cash with major banks with high quality credit standing and limits exposure to any one counter-party.

Trade receivables comprise a widespread customer base. Management evaluated credit risk relating to customers on an ongoing basis. If customers are independently rated, these ratings are used. Otherwise, if there is no independent rating, risk control assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the board. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored. Sales to retail customers are settled in cash or using major credit cards. Credit guarantee insurance is purchased when deemed appropriate.
