AL-MAZAYA HOLDING COMPANY - K.S.C. (PUBLIC)
AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2023
(All amounts are in Kuwaiti Dinar)

(i) Right to use assets:
The Group recognizes right to use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the
underlying asset is available for use). The cost of right to use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities
recognized (which represents the present value of the lease payments to be made over the lease team
discounted using lessee’s increment borrowing rate at the commencement date of the lease contract), initial
direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease
incentives received. Subsequent to initial recognition, the right to use assets is measured in accordance with
the accounting policy followed by the Group to measure similar assets.

Right of use assets that meet the definition of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, less any
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any re-measurement of lease liabilities.
Unless the Group is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term,
the recognized right of use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of its estimated
useful life and the lease term. Rights to use assets that meet the definition of investment properties are
recorded as investment properties for the Group and are measured at fair value which reflects the expected
cash flows during the lease term that excludes the lease payments to be made over the lease term which is
measured and included in the Group’s liabilities within the consolidated statement of financial position.

(ii) Lease liabilities:
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value
of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including
in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on
an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments
also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and
payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to
terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expense
in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate at the
lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the
commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of related finance
cost and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is
remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease
payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.

(iii) Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets:
The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of property and
equipment (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and
do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to
leases that are considered of low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(iv) Significant judgment in determining the lease term of contracts with renewal options:
The Group determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods
covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered
by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercise.

In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic
incentive to exercises an extension option, or not exercise a termination option. Extension options (or periods
after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended
(or not terminated). The assessment is reviewed if a significant event of significant change in circumstance
occurs which affects this assessment and that is within the control of the lessee.
