CHAIRMAN’S REPORT INTRODUCTION In t he face of ongoing chal lenges due to the continued COVID-19 pandemic, Carib Brewery (Grenada) Limited (CBG) ong rresul esul ts in fiscal del iver ed str ivered strong year 2021. These results reflect the resilience of our Company, the strength of our business strategies and the ded ication of our employees. We remained focused on our strategy, leveraging our superior brands, retail execution and excellent customer service while ensuring the wellbeing of our employees. For the financial year, sales grew by 5% while profit before tax improved by 16%. These are strong results in challenging circumstances. Our CBG family continued to step forward, not only by delivering year on year growth and adding value to all our stakeholders, but also by demonstrating their commitment to keeping each other safe while serving our customers and supporting the communities in which we operate. We are very proud, that these results were achieved without any COVID19 subsidies and the retainment of the full complement of employees.

2022 local economic growth is forecast at 4.3%, based on the enhanced domestic value added by tourism, strengthening of agricultural sector linkages, investments in skills development and training, the shift toward renewable energy and the many links provided with the resumption of in-person learning at the St. George’s University.

COMPANY PERFORMANCE I am pleased to report another year of good performance with sales and earnings growth, portfolio expansion and continued cash returns to shareholders exceeding expectations. While we are pleased with these results, and the overall strength of our business, the external environment continues to be volatile and difficult to predict, and we remain cognizant of the many chal lenges we face and actions we need to implement to continue on an upward trajectory. 2021 was a year of extreme global turbulence with high raw material, transport and freight costs, and countries being affected by new variants of COVID-19 which led to continued supply chain d isruptions. In spite of this, CBG remained focused on protecting the interest of shareholders, ensuring the wel l being of al l employees and supporting our loyal customers and local communities. As we navigated the second year of the pandemic, our results demonstrate resilience,

with improved performance during a very d ifficult year, generating year on year growth in both sales revenues and profit before tax. Sales revenues grew by 5%, from $58.323M to $61.265M, a reflection of our continued investment in our brands to strengthen their long-term health and competitiveness, combined with the collaborative spirit across the organization and our many customers. 2021, saw growth on the local market, a direct result of our high quality products and excellent customer service which were complemented by significant brand equity enhancements, including the renovation of: Carib, Mackeson Stout and Shandy Carib which generated tremendous excitement. Further, CBG is convinced that continued evolution of our portfolio is key to accelerating the Company’s longterm growth profile and to del ivering enhanced value to our shareholders. In support of this conviction, our portfolio was expanded with the addition of Pink Ting, which has been enthusiastically received and widely accepted by the market. Our export market contracted marginal ly because of the pandemic coupled with other natural disasters in our main markets. Notwithstanding this, history was made with our first export to Europe - a shipment of

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK The IMF reported that the Grenad ian economy is gradually recovering from the pandemic with a growth of 5.6% in 2021 with that recovery being fuelled by the Construction and Agricultural Sectors and Tourism which responded positively to the lifting of domestic quarantine requirements in late 2021. Food, fuel, and transport prices are expected to continue pushing up inflation, reflecting the impact of strained global supply chains.

CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Shandy Carib to the United Kingdom. This augurs well for the future of our Company. Cost of sales percentage increased over prior year due to spiralling costs, inclusive of energy, packaging and raw materials, combined with significant repair and maintenance to plant and machinery. This resulted in a contraction of gross margins as our ability to implement significant price increases to adjust for this higher cost was impacted by inflationary factors in the marketplace. Not hwithstand ing, t he financial outlay in our brands and consumers, savings were generated in sales, d istribution and administrative expense includ ing reduct ions in impairment of receivables. Al l these resulted in a net profit before tax of $11.390M, a 16% improvement on 2020 ($9.785M). Achieving these financial results in an extremely challenging environment is a testament to our quality of product, the unwavering support of our employees and the combination of strategies in support of long-term value creation. Cash generated improved by $2.616M, growing from $5.464M to $8.080M while cash balances stood at $28.366M against a prior year balance of $20.284M. Our healthy cash position will facil itate the implementation of focused capital investment projects whilst allowing for the

pursuit of increased shareholder value. The Statement of Financial Position remained strong with shareholders equity and total assets increasing to $44.332M and $66.879M, respectively.

DIVIDEND DECLARATION CBG has a history of creating value for shareholders, paying d ividends that are sustainable and superior over time having regard to its cash flow generation, reinvestment options and balance sheet strength. Today, we continue to generate strong cash flows, and our capital allocation strategy governs how we prioritize the utilization of the strong cash flow we generate. This strategy also guides our continued investment in organic growth, payment of a progressive d ividend. Maintaining a strong balance sheet gives us headroom to make further investments and supports our commitment to return any excess capital to Shareholders. Given CBG’s strong performance, your Board of Directors is pleased to declare an ord inary dividend of $1.00 per share, a 17.6% increase on the prior year. Additionally, a special dividend of $1.00 has also been declared which brings the total d ividend to $2.00, a reward to our

shareholders who had steadfastly stood with us over the years.

CAPITAL INVESTMENTS We have continued to invest in the future of our Company which includes the advancement of our innovation agenda and the substantial expansion of our production capacity thus strengthening our basis for long-term growth. A total capital investment of EC$6.079M was spent on upgrades in support of revenue growth, product quality maintenance, customer service and delivery. Investments were also made in computer hardware and information technology in support of our digital transformation strategy to create more efficient ways of working.

CORPORATE CITIZENSHIP AND ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP In 2021, CBG’s deepened its support of both community and country. We remain committed to the long-term health of the communities in which we operate and where our employees l ive and work. Amidst one of t he worst humanitarian and economic crises of our time, we worked to address multiple chal lenges unfold ing in our communities by supporting health workers and non-profit organizations by provid ing refreshments and hand sanitizers among other much needed items. As the country and world begin to return to a sense of normality, we are eager to continue supporting various sport and cultural events and education programmes within the communities. We are ded icated to being a sustainable business by striving to do business in a financially, environmentally, and socially responsible way. The need to reduce the impact on the environment has never been more urgent and CBG continues to strive to reduce energy demand, minimizing waste sent to the landfill and reduce our carbon footprint. Our vision remains to be a Company where the sustainable use of resources and environmental issues are

embedded in al l our decision-making processes enhancing the economic, social, and environmental well-being of all our stakeholders. We have made great strides forward in the last year by: implementing electronic authorization of documents wherever feasible, thereby reducing our paper and stationery use, working towards minimizing our carbon footprint by carpooling, and reducing air travel with the use of digital platforms for virtual meetings. Also, CBG continued to manage its water usage, maintained 100% production in glass bottles and has also begun the exciting journey of performing feasibility studies into installing a large array of solar panels which wil l offset our demand for gridsourced electricity. This will allow us to reduce our carbon footprint and venture into green sustainable renewable technology for our buildings. CBG uses a large amount of energy to power our network of offices and equipment, and we recognize that the generation and consumption of energy has a significant impact on the environment, through the use of finite resources and the emission of greenhouse gases.

GOVERNANCE AND COMPLIANCE CBG is committed to conducting business with integrity and honesty, in accordance with the highest ethical standards and in full compliance with the law. Everyone at CBG is responsible for the prevention of all forms of bribery, corruption, fraud and to perform business in accordance with the highest standards of ethical behavior at al l times. We give high priority to compliance, ethics and governance and are mindful of our responsibility to promote the long-term interest of the company for all our stakeholders.

CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Strong personal and collective ownership is critical for ensuring the accuracy of information we produce, driving improvements and hold ing ourselves accountable for our actions. The Board is confident that there are sufficient processes and internal systems of control to ful ly meet its obl igations together with appropriate systems and processes in place to allow it to identify, manage, mitigate, and review its risks. The strength of our Board drives and delivers our ambitions for improved performance t hrough its leadership capabil it ies, transparency and governance arrangements. We uphold the highest standards of transparency and openness in performing our functions and dealing with all stakeholders. CBG has access to a wide range of experts who provide advice and support when needed. Our internal aud it funct ion provides assurance, primarily within internal controls of financial processes, IT security and business ethics. We are committed to ensuring the accuracy of our reports. In addition to internal audit, our financial reporting and internal controls of financial reporting processes are aud ited by an independent aud it firm elected at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. This report, together with the annual financial statements are thoroughly analyzed by the Audit Committee.

Covid pandemic and we were mindful of the strain this placed on the health and wellbeing of our employees. We are extremely grateful for the continued resilience and commitment of our employees who have kept their focus firmly on serving our customers and ensuring business continuity and growth. All COVID-19 protocols continued to be enforced and free testing was provided to employees. Employees who tested positive for COVID-19 were closely monitored on a daily basis by both our HSE teams and qualified medical professionals. We continue to view vaccination as the best way to preserve lives and livelihoods and through various initiatives ensured that our employees had accurate and easy access to information about the benefits of vaccines. A company can only be successful in the longterm if it ensures that its employees remain healthy. At CBG, we address not only safe operations of machines and vehicles, but also mental health issues including stress, depression, emotional and financial wellbeing. During 2021 we intensified our focus on mental health, through our Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) which is confidential, manned by trained

HEALTH AND SAFETY COMPLIANCE As we endured the biggest global health chal lenge of our generat ion, CBG remained unwavering in its fight against the pandemic, focusing on reducing the risk of Covid-19 in the workplace. CBG like most companies, was impacted by the

to increased supply chain d isruptions. While the near term will be challenging, we are moving forward focused on our integrated strategy and our immed iate priorities to grow even in the face of the current difficulties. The ongoing unrest in Europe has created a new period of uncertainty about the global economy as inflationary pressures worsen due to increases in world energy markets.

HUMAN RESOURCE A CBG, we believe that developing talent is paramount to build ing a flexible and agile organization. In support of this, employees were empowered through training in advanced Human Resource techniques, leadership and management skills, data analysis and d igital transformation, brewing and quality assurance. Additional training was completed in customer service, marketing and electronics and instrumentation, equipping employees with the need competencies to maximize value creation. As a Board we are committed to ensuring strong diversity and having the right competences to meet future chal lenges by unlocking the ful l potential of our people through investment in talent and capabilities. We support, attract, and retain high-performing employees who fit our positive, can-do culture, are committed to serving the community, and uphold ing our Company’s values. We do this by provid ing competitive, equitable benefits; resources for personal and professional development; and set high expectations for high ethical conduct so that employees can be successful in their work - and enjoy doing it.

CONCLUSION While we are pleased with these results and the overall strength of our business, the external environment continues to be volatile and difficult to predict. We remain cognizant of the many challenges we will face. Raw material and freight costs have risen sharply and continue to rise due

In 2022, the Company will focus on value creation through accelerated organic growth driven by portfolio expansion in the year we refer to as “The Year of Innovation”. We wil l concentrate on revitalizing and renewing our Lagers while innovating and exploring beyond beer. For instance, we wil l expand into low calorie “l ight” beer, launching Carib Pilsner Light to capture this growing market segment. Outside of the beer category, CBG will also enter the tonic wine segment with the introduction of its brand, Rockstone, while both the Hard Cider and Ind ian Pale Ale portfol ios wil l be expanded with the launch of new variants. We will focus on deepening our presence in the OECS territory through increased activity in our existing as well as new export markets. To facil itate these expansions and in keeping with our value creation strategy, significant capital investment will be made in plant and equipment to increase production capacity and enhance export. This investment will be headlined by the installation of a new Bottle Washer, Boiler and Filter Plant. We will continue our focus on improving employee engagement and investing in strengthening our human resource capital with high quality training programmes and

Ot her infor mat ion included in tthe he Company’ informat Company’ss 2021 Annual Report Other information consists of the information included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.

AUDITOR’S REPORT Report on tthe he Aud it of tthe he Financial Statements (cont inued) (continued) Ot her infor mat ion included in t he Company’ informat mation Company’ss 2021 Annual Report (continued) Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. Responsibil it ies of Management and The Aud it Committee for tthe he Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRSs, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, d isclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

AUDITOR’S REPORT Report on tthe he Aud it of tthe he Financial Statements (cont inued) (continued) Responsibil it ies of Management and The Aud it Committee for t he Financial Statements (continued)  Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform aud it procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Aud itors’ Responsibil ity for t he Aud it of t he Financial Statements  Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. 

Evaluate the appropriateness of account ing pol icies used and t he reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the aud it evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or cond itions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists; we are required to draw attention in our aud itor’s report to the related d isclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or cond itions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

We communicate with the Audit Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. GRENADA February 25th, 2022

Significant Accounting Policies The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to the years presented, unless otherwise stated. (a)

Basis of Preparation These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention modified by the revaluation of land and buildings. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 3.

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31st, 2021 except for the adoption of new standards and interpretations below. Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 - Interest Rate Benchmark Refor fect ive 1 st January Reform (Effect January,, 2021) m - Phase 2 (Ef The amendments in Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2 (Amendment to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16) introduce a practical expedient for mod ifications required by the reform, clarify that hedge accounting is not discontinued solely because of the interbank offered rates (IBOR) reform and introduce disclosures that allow users to understand the nature and extent of risks arising from the IBOR reform to which the entity is exposed to and how the entity manages those risks as well as the entity’s progress in transitioning from IBORs to alternative benchmarks rates and how the entity is managing this transition. (ii)

Standards in issue not yet effective The following is a list of standards and interpretations that are not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the Company’s financial statements. These standards and interpretations may be applicable to the Company at a future date and will be adopted when they become effective. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting these standards and interpretations.  Amendments to IFRS 16 - Covid-19 Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June, 2021 (Effective 1st April 2021) In March 2021, the Board amended the conditions of the practical expedient in IFRS 16 that provides relief to lessees from applying the IFRS 16 guidance on lease modifications to rent concessions arising as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. Fol lowing the amendment, the practical exped ient now appl ies to rent concessions for which any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or before 30 June 2022, provided the other conditions for applying the practical expedient are met. In the reporting period in which a lessee first applies the 2021 amendment, the lessee will not be required to disclose the information by paragraph 28 (f) of ISAS 8. In accordance with paragraph 2 of IFRS 16, a lessee is required to apply the relief consistently to eligible contracts with similar characteristics and in similar circumstances, irrespective of whether the contract become eligible for the practical expedient before or after the amendment.

 Amendments to IAS 1 6 - Pr operty oceeds Property operty,, Plant and Equipment: Pr Proceeds befor e Intended Use (Ef fect ive 1st January before (Effect January,, 2022) The amendment prohibits entities from deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and equipment (PP&E), any proceeds of the sale of items produced while bringing that asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Instead, an entity recognizes the proceeds from selling such items, and the costs of producing those items, in profit or loss.  Amendments to IFRS 3 - Reference to the Conceptual Framework (Ef fect ive 1 January January,, 2022) (Effect In May 2020, the IASB issued Amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combinations – Reference to the Conceptual Framework. The amendments are intended to replace a reference to a previous version of the IASB’s Conceptual Framework (the 1989 Framework) with a reference to the current version issued in March 2018 (the Conceptual Framework) without significantly changing its requirements. The amendment add an exception to the recognition principle of IFRS 3 to avoid the issue of potential ‘day 2’ gains or losses arising for liabilities and contingent liabilities that would be within the scope of IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets or IFRIC 21 Levies, if incurred separately. The exception requires entities to apply the criteria in IAS 37 or IFRIC 21, respectively, instead of the Conceptual Framework, to determine whether a present obligation exists at the acquisition date. At the same time, the amendments add a new paragraph to IFRS 3 to clarify that contingent assets do not qualify for recognition at the acquisition date.  Amendments to IAS 37 - Oner ous Contracts, Costs of Ful fil l ing a Onerous Contract (Ef fect ive 1 January (Effect January,, 2022) In May 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets to specify which costs an entity needs to include when assessing whether a contract is onerous or loss-making. The amendments apply a ‘directly related cost approach’. The costs that relate directly to a contract to provide goods or services include both incremental costs (e.g., the cost of direct labour and materials) and an allocation of costs directly related to contract activities (e.g., depreciation of equipment used to fulfill the contract as well as costs of contract management and supervision). General and administrative costs do not relate directly to a contract and are excluded unless they are explicitly chargeable to the counterparty under the contract.

 Amendments to IAS 1 - Classificat ion of Liabil it ies as Curr ent and Current Non-Curr ent (Ef Non-Current (Effect January,, 2023) fect ive 1 January

 Amendments to IAS 8 - Definition of Accounting Estimates (Effective 1st January January,, 2023)

In January 2020, the Board issued amendments to paragraphs 69 to 76 of IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements to specify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments clarify:

The amendments replace the definition of a change in accounting estimates with a definition of accounting estimates. Under the new definition, accounting estimates are “monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty”.

-

What is meant by a right to defer settlement. That a right to defer must exist at the end of the reporting period That classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its deferral right That only if an embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument, would the terms of a liability not impact its classification.

 Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 - Disclosure of Account ing Pol icies (Ef fect ive 1st January (Effect January,, 2023) The amendments change the requirement in IAS 1 with regard to disclosure of accounting pol icies. The amendments replace al l instances of the term ‘significant accounting policies’ with ‘material accounting policy information’. Accounting policy information is material if, when considered together with other information included in an entity’s financial statements, it can reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general-purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements. The supporting paragraphs in IAS 1 are also amended to clarify that accounting policy information that relates to immaterial transactions, other events or cond itions is immaterial and need not be d isclosed. Accounting pol icy information may be material because of the nature of the related transactions, other events or conditions, even if the amounts are immaterial. However, not all accounting policy information relating to material transactions, other events or conditions is itself material. The Board has also developed guidance and examples to explain and demonstrate the application of the ‘four-step materiality process’ described in IFRS Practice Statement 2.

28

2.

CARIB BREWERY (GRENADA) LIMITED Annual Business and Performance Report 2021

The definition of a change in accounting estimates was deleted. However, the Board retained the concept of changes in accounting estimates in the Standard with the following clarifications: -

A change in accounting estimate that results from new information or new developments is not the correction of an error. The effects of a change in an input or a measurement technique used to develop an accounting estimate are changes in accounting estimates if they do not result from the correction of prior period errors.

 Amendments to IAS 12 – Deferr ed T ax rrelated elated to Assets and Liabil it ies Deferred Tax arising fr om a Single T ransact ion (ef (effect January,, 2023) from Transact fect ive 1 st January The amendments introduce a further exception from the initial recognition exemption. Under the amendments, an entity does not apply the initial recognition exemption for transactions that give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary d ifferences. Depending on the applicable tax law, equal taxable and deductible temporary differences may arise on initial recognition of an asset and liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit. Following the amendments to IAS 12, an entity is required to recognize the related deferred tax asset and liability, with the recognition of any deferred tax asset being subject to the recoverability criteria in IAS 12. 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 an entity recognizes:

Right-of use assets and lease liabilities. Decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities and the corresponding amounts recognised as part of the cost of the related asset. The cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other component of equity, as appropriate) at that date.

 IFRS 17 – Insurance Contract (Ef fect ive 1 January (Effect January,, 2023) In May 2017, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts (IFRS 17), a comprehensive new accounting standard for insurance contracts covering recognition and measurement, presentation and disclosure. Once effective, IFRS 17 will replace IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts (IFRS 4) that was issued in 2005. IFRS 17 appl ies to all types of insurance contracts (i.e., life, non-life, direct insurance and re-insurance), regardless of the type of entities that issue them, as well as to certain guarantees and financial instruments with discretionary participation features.

(iii)

Improvements to International Reporting Standards The annual improvements process for the International Accounting Standards Board deals with non-urgent but necessary clarifications and amendments to IFRS. Annual improvements to IFRS Standards 2018-2020 cycle The following amendments are applicable to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January, 2022 IFRSs – Subject of Amendment IFRS 1

First-time Adoption of International Reporting Standards – Subsidiary as a first-time adopter. IFRS 9 Financial Instruments - Fees in the ’10 per cent’ test for derecognition of financial liabilities. IFRS 16 Leases – Lese incentives IAS 41 Agriculture – Taxation in fair value measurements

A few scope exceptions will apply. The overall objective of IFRS 17 is to provide an accounting model for insurance contracts that is more useful and consistent for insurers. In contrast to the requirements in IFRS 4, which are largely based on grandfathering previous local accounting pol icies, IFRS 17 provides a comprehensive model for insurance contracts, covering all relevant accounting aspects. The core of IFRS 17 is the general model, supplemented by: -

A specific adaptation for contracts with direct participation features (the variable fee approach) A simplified approach (the premium allocation approach) mainly for short-duration contracts)

IFRS 17 is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023, with comparative figures required. Early application is permitted, provided the entity also applies IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 on or before the date it first applies IFRS 17.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (d)

Inventories are valued as follows:

Some items of property, plant and equipment are stated at valuation less subsequent depreciation. The others are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Subsequent costs are included in the assets carrying amounts or are recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only 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. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income during the financial period in which they are incurred. Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of land and buildings are credited to revaluation surplus in equity. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged against the surplus d irectly in equity; all other decreases are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts to their residual values over their estimated useful lives. The rates used are as follows:

2% - 2.50% 2.5% - 33.33% 20% - 33.33% 10% - 33.33% 16.67% - 33.33%

Bottles

33.3%

Crates

10% - 12.5%

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate, at each Statement of Financial Position date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on d isposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amounts. These are included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. When revalued assets are sold, the amounts included in revaluation surplus are transferred to retained earnings.

Past Service Benefits Other Than Pensions The Company provides, to all employees who are members of the Technical and Al l ied Workers’ Union (TAWU), a past service benefit payable at the end of employment. This is charged against profit on a systematic basis over the employees’ period of employment with the Company. The benefit is calculated on a monthly basis by applying a percentage of current salary levels and is accrued in non-current liabilities.

Recognition and Measurement - continued

Subsequent measurement categories of financial assets and l iabilities The Company classifies all its financial assets based on the business model for managing the assets and the asset’s contractual terms.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash on hand and at bank and short-term demand deposits with original maturity of three (3) months or less.

Amortized cost

Trade and Other Receivables

Financial Instruments Financial instruments are contracts that give rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Recognition and Measurement Al l regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised or derecognised on the trade date, that is the date on which the Company commits itself to purchase or sell an asset. A regular way purchase and sale of financial assets is a purchase or sale of an asset under a contract whose terms require delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulation or convention in the marketplace concerned. Initial Measurement The classification of financial instruments at initial recognition depends on their contractual terms and the business model for managing the instruments. Financial instruments are initially measured at their fair value, except in the case of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) whereby transaction costs are added to, or subtracted from, this amount. Trade receivables are measured at transaction price.

34

(k)

The Company classifies its financial assets at amortized cost except equity which is at fair value through profit and loss.

Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effect interest method, less provision for expected credit loss. The Company uses a provision matrix to calculate expected credit loss (ECL) for trade receivables.

(i)

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for merchand ise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. If collection is expected in one year or less, they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets.

(k)

2.

CARIB BREWERY (GRENADA) LIMITED Annual Business and Performance Report 2021

Financial assets are measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met: 

The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and

The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

(ii)

Impairment In relation to the impairment of financial assets, IFRS 9 requires an expected credit loss (ECL) model as opposed to an incurred credit loss model under ISA 39. The expected credit loss model requires the Company to account for expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit losses at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition of the financial assets. Therefore, it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before credit losses are recognized. The Company records an al lowance for expected cred it loss for its trade receivables using a simplified approach to calculate ECLs whereby it recognizes a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The ECL on these financial assets are estimated using a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment. The provision rates used in the provision matrix are based on days past due. For all other financial instruments, the Company recognizes lifetime ECL when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If on the other hand the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition the Company recognizes the loss allowance for the financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECL where applicable. The assessment of whether lifetime ECL should be recognized is based on significant increase in the likelihood or risk of default occurring since initial recognition instead of on evidence of a financial asset being credit-impaired at the reporting date or actual default occurring.

Financial Liabilities

Lifetime ECL represents the expected credit losses that will result for all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECL represents the portion of lifetime ECL that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible with 12 months after the reporting date.

When financial liabilities are recognised they are measured at fair value of the consideration given plus transactions cost directly attributable to the acquisition of the liability. Financial liabilities are re-measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate. Financial liabilities are derecognized when they are extinguished, that is when the obligation specified in the contract as d ischarged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability extinguished and the consideration price is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income.

A financial asset is credit impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of that financial assets have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes observable data about the following events: (l)

(iii)

(i)

Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or borrower;

(ii)

A breach of contract, such as a default or past due event;

(iii)

It is becoming probable that the borrower will enter in bankruptcy or other financial re-organisation; and

(iv)

The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

Write offs

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and services in the ordinary course of the Company’s activities. Revenue is shown net of estimated returns, rebates and discounts. Revenue is recognized when the Company has delivered products to the customer; the customer has accepted the products and collectability of the related receivables is reasonably assured. (m)

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off to the extent that there is no real istic prospect of recovery. This is general ly when the Company determines that the borrower does not have assets or resources of income that would generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amount subject to the write-of. (iv)

On derecognition of a financial asset measured at amortised cost, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss.

Related Parties Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial or operating decisions. Transactions entered into with related parties in the normal course of business are carried out on commercial terms and conditions during the year.

Derecognition of Financial Assets The company derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the company recognizes its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.

Revenue Recognition

(n)

Income Tax The charge for the current year is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using the applicable tax rates for the period. Deferred income tax is provided using the liabil ity method, on all temporary differences at the Statement of Financial Position date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rate that is expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on the enacted tax rate at the Statement of Financial Position date. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

3.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments in Applying Accounting Policies The development of estimates and the exercise of judgement in applying accounting policies may have a material impact on the Company’s reported assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The items which may have the most effect on these financial statements, are set out below.

Stated Capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

(p)

Trade Payables Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

i)

The Company utilizes professional valuators to determine the fair value of its properties. Valuations are determined through the application of a variety of different valuation methods which are all sensitive to the underlying assumptions chosen. ii)

(q)

The Company uses a provision matrix to calculate ECLs for trade receivables. The provision rates are based on days past due.

Provisions

The provision matrix is initially based on the Company’s historical observed default rates. The Company will calibrate the matrix to adjust the historical credit loss experience with forward-looking information. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed. The assessment of the correlation between historical observed default rates, forecast economic conditions and ECLs is a significant estimate. The amount of ECLs is sensitive to changes in circumstances and of forecast economic conditions. The Company’s historical cred it loss experience and forecast of economic conditions may also not be representative of customer’s actual default in the future.

Dividends Dividends that are proposed and declared during the period are accounted for as an appropriation of retained earnings in the Statement of Changes in Equity.

(s)

Finance Charges Finance charges are recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

(t)

Provisions for expected credit losses of trade receivables

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

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, if it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. (r)

Valuation of property

iii)

Management exercises judgment in determining whether future economic benefits can be derived from expenditures to be capitalized and in estimating the useful lives and residual values of these assets.

Intangible Assets Amortisation is charged to comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the intangible asset unless such lives are indefinite.

Property, plant, equipment

(iv)

Provision for inventory obsolescence Provision for obsolescence on inventory is based on the age of the inventory, assessment of the physical cond ition and the levels of obsolete or unsaleable inventory items on hand.

Computer software - 10 years.

(v)

Impact of COVID-19 Background COVID-19, which is a respiratory illness caused by a new virus, was declared a world-wide pandemic by the World Health Organisation on March 11, 2020. The Company has considered the impact of COVID-19 in preparing its financial statements.

Going concern In accordance with the requirements of IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’, the Company has performed a going concern assessment as of the reporting date. While the COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the inherent uncertainty in the going concern assessment, the Company has concluded that there are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt on the ability to continue to operate as a going concern. The financial statements have therefore been prepared on the going concern basis.

Trade and ot her rreceivables: eceivables: For trade and other receivables, the Company adopted the simplified approach for determining the provision for expected credit losses, as permitted by IFRS 9. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company assessed the need to adjust the loss rates to incorporate forward-looking information, taking into account the expected recovery rate of receivables and various applicable macroeconomic factors. Based on the analysis performed as at 31 December 2021, no material overlay adjustments specifically related to COVID-19 pandemic was considered necessary.

24. Risk Management Risk is inherent in the Company’s activities but is managed through a process of ongoing identification, measurement and monitoring, subject to risk limits and other controls. The management of risk is important to the Company’s continuing profitability and each person is accountable for the risk exposures relating to their functions and responsibilities. The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Board of Directors is responsible for the overall risk management approach and for approving the risk strategies, principles, policies and procedures. Day to day ad herence to risk principles is carried out by the executive management of the Company in compliance with the policies approved by the Board of Directors.

46

CARIB BREWERY (GRENADA) LIMITED Annual Business and Performance Report 2021

The Company has exposure to credit risk, which is the potential for loss due to debtors or counterparties failure to pay amounts when due. Credit risk is the most important risk for the Group’s business: therefore, management carefully manages its exposure to it. Credit risk exposures arise principally from the Company’s receivables and financial transactions. The Company extends credit to recognized, creditworthy third parties who are subject to a credit verification process.

4,396

ii) Compensation of key management personnel of the company: Salaries and other benefits

Cr ed it Risk Management Cred

The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The Executive Committee has established a credit policy under which each customer is analyzed individually for creditworthiness prior to the Company offering them a credit facility. Credit limits are assigned to each customer, which represents the maximum credit allowable without approval from the Board of Directors. The Company has procedures in place to restrict customers’ orders if the order will exceed their credit limits. Customers that fail to meet the Company’s benchmark creditworthiness can only trade with the Company on a cash basis. Customer credit risk is monitored according to their credit characteristics such as whether it is an ind ividual or company, types of industry, aging profile and previous financial difficulties. The Company’s credit period is thirty (30) days. Trade receivables over one hundred and eighty (180) days are fully provided for. The following table shows the maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the Statement of Financial Position. Gross Maximum Exposure

Fair V alues Values

Liquid ity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will be unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due under normal and stress circumstances. The Company monitors its liquid ity risk by considering the maturity of its financial investments, financial assets and projected cash flow from operations. Where possible the Company utilizes surplus internal funds to finance its operations on on-going projects. Liquidity risk management process: The Company’s liquidity management process includes: 1. Monitoring liquidity on a daily basis and further cash flows on a monthly basis. 2. Maintaining a portfolio of cash investments with staggered maturity dates that can be easily terminated if required. 3. Maintaining committed lines of credit.

<1 year

Fair value of the financial assets and liabilities represents the amounts at which the instruments could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivable, trade and other payables and due to Ansa McAl Group of Companies approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Market Risk The Company takes on exposure to market risk which is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risks mainly arise from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. There have been no changes to the Company’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which it manages and measures the risk from the previous years. Currency

Risk

Currency risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Such exposure arises from sales or purchases in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency. Management monitors its exposure to foreign currency fluctuation and employs appropriate strategies to mitigate any potential losses. The Company operates primarily in the Eastern Caribbean; although some of these transactions are in United States Dollars, the currency risk exposures are minimal due to the fact that the Eastern Caribbean dollar is pegged to the United States Dollar. The Company is also exposed to a minimal amount of currency risks from transactions conducted, in Euro, Pounds Sterling and Trinidad and Tobago and Guyana Dollars.

Interest Rate Risk Cash flow interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Fair value interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rate. Since the Company holds primarily fixed rate financial instruments and also has no significant interest-bearing assets or liabilities, its income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.

(a) Inventories in the statement of financial position have bee remeasured to confom to the current year’s financial disclosure.

25. Events after the Reporting Period The duration and extent of the COVID-19 pandemic and related financial, social and public health impacts of the pandemic are uncertain.
