Useful lives of other intangible assets

Amortisation expense
The amortisation of intangible asset is included in the “Administrative expenses” line item

Impairment testing of goodwill and other intangible assets
Goodwill acquired through business combinations and other intangible assets have been
allocated to one cash generating unit (“CGU”) within the Engineering segment.
The recoverable amounts of the CGU associated with goodwill and other intangible assets
have been determined based on value in use calculations using cash flow projections
from financial budgets approved by management covering a five-year period. The pre-
tax discount rate applied to the cash flow projections and the forecasted growth rate to
extrapolate cash flow projections beyond the five-year period are 10.4% and 1.5% per
annum respectively.
Gross margins used in the value in use calculations were based on budgeted gross margin
derived from past performance and management’s expectations of market developments.
The pre-tax discount rate reflects the current market assessment of the risks specific to
the CGU. The forecasted growth rate did not exceed the long-term average growth rate for
the engineering business in which the CGU operates.
