MILLI RE 2023 ANNUAL REPORT
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements As of December 31, 2023 Millî Reasürans Türk Anonim Şirketi (Currency: Turkish Lira (TL)) (Convenience Translation of Financial Statements and Related Disclosures and Footnotes Originally Issued in Turkish) 2.30 Earnings per share Earnings per share presented in the income statement are calculated by dividing the net profit into the weighted average number of the outstanding shares throughout the financial year. Companies in Turkey can increase their capital by distributing “bonus shares” to shareholders from the prior years’ profit. Such “bonus share” distributions are considered as issued shares in the earnings per share calculations. Accordingly, weighted average number of the outstanding shares used in this calculation is found by considering the retrospective effects of the outstanding shares distributions. 2.31 Subsequent events Post-balance sheet events that provide additional information about the Group’s position at the balance sheet date (adjusting events) are reflected in the financial statements. Post-balance sheet events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material. 2.32 The new standards, amendments and interpretations The accounting policies adopted in preparation of the consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2023 are consistent with those of the previous financial year, except for the adoption of new and amended IFRS and IFRIC interpretations effective as of January 1, 2022. The effects of these standards and interpretations on the Group’s financial position and performance have been disclosed in the related paragraphs. i) The new standards, amendments and interpretations which are effective as at January 1, 2023 are as follows: Amendments to TAS 8 - Definition of Accounting Estimates In August 2021, the POA issued amendments to TAS 8, in which it introduces a new definition of ‘accounting estimates’. The amendments clarify the distinction between changes in accounting estimates and changes in accounting policies and the correction of errors. Also, the amended standard clarifies that the effects on an accounting estimate of a change in an input or a change in a measurement technique are changes in accounting estimates if they do not result from the correction of prior period errors. The previous definition of a change in accounting estimate specified that changes in accounting estimates may result from new information or new developments. Therefore, such changes are not corrections of errors. This aspect of the definition was retained by the POA. The amendments apply to changes in accounting policies and changes in accounting estimates that occur on or after the start of the effective date. The amendments did not have a significant impact on the financial position or performance of the Group. Amendments to TAS 1 - Disclosure of Accounting Policies In August 2021, POA published amendments to TAS 1, in which it provides guidance and examples to help businesses apply materiality estimates to their accounting policy disclosures. The amendments published in TAS 1 are valid for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Due to the absence of a definition of the term “significant” in TFRS, POA has decided to replace this term with the term “significant” in the context of disclosure of accounting policy information. ‘Important’ is a term defined in TFRS and is largely understood by users of financial statements according to POA. When evaluating the materiality of accounting policy information, enterprises should take into account both the size of transactions, other events or circumstances, and their nature. In addition, examples of situations in which an entity may consider accounting policy information to be important have been added. The amendments did not have a significant impact on the financial position or performance of the Group. Amendments to TAS 12 - Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction In August 2021, the POA issued amendments to TAS 12, which narrow the scope of the initial recognition exception under TAS 12, so that it no longer applies to transactions that give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. The amendments issued to TAS 12 are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023. The amendments clarify that where payments that settle a liability are deductible for tax purposes, it is a matter of judgement (having considered the applicable tax law) whether such deductions are attributable for tax purposes to the liability recognised in the financial statements (and interest expense) or to the related asset component (and interest expense). This judgement is important in determining whether any temporary differences exist on initial recognition of the asset and liability. The amendments apply to transactions that occur on or after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. In addition, at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, a deferred tax asset (provided that sufficient taxable profit is available) and a deferred tax liability for all deductible and taxable temporary differences associated with leases and decommissioning obligations should be recognized. The amendments did not have a significant impact on the financial position or performance of the Group. Amendments to TAS 12 - International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules In September 2023, POA issued amendments to TAS 12, which introduce a mandatory exception in TAS 12 from recognizing and disclosing deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes. The amendments clarify that TAS 12 applies to income taxes arising from tax laws enacted or substantively enacted to implement the Pillar Two Model Rules published by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The amendments also introduced targeted disclosure requirements for entities affected by the tax laws. The temporary exception from recognition and disclosure of information about deferred taxes and the requirement to disclose the application of the exception apply immediately and retrospectively upon issue of the amendments. However, certain disclosure requirements are not required to be applied for any interim period ending on or before 31 December 2023. The amendments did not have a significant impact on the financial position or performance of the Group. 208 MİLLİ RE
