Trading Update and Possible Changes in Accounting Policies
Mytrah, the India-based renewable focused Independent Power Producer, announced on 19 December 2016 that its operational performance was on track to achieve management expectations for the 2016 financial year. The Company confirms that it expects to report 2016 revenue and EBITDA in line with expectations.
As a result of changes in Indian law, new accounting rules are applicable to the Indian subsidiaries for the first time. Accordingly, in line with Mytrah's continued commitment to good governance and prudent accounting, the Board is currently considering whether it is appropriate to revise the Company's accounting policies in relation to revenue recognition and depreciation of Property, Plant and Equipment. Any changes may result in a significant additional non-cash charge to the income statement in 2016.
The final decision regarding any changes in accounting policies would be taken at the time of finalisation of the consolidated audited financial results for the year ended 31 December 2016, which will be announced in due course.
