Impairment testing for cash-generating unit containing goodwill

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated mainly to the Company’s operations in the United States, and represents the lowest level within the Group at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.

The aggregate carrying amounts of goodwill:

	As of December 31
	2024		2023
	USD thousands		USD thousands
Goodwill		148,799		148,128

The estimated recoverable amount of the unit was higher than its carrying amount, and therefore there was no need for an impairment.

The recoverable amount was based on its value in use and was determined by discounting its future cash flows to be generated with the assistance of independent valuers. Value in use in 2024 was determined in a similar manner as in 2023.

Key assumptions used in calculation of the recoverable amount

Key assumptions used in the calculation of recoverable amounts are discount rates, sponsor cash flows from operating and development projects.

(1)

Discount rate

The after-tax discount rate was estimated based on past experience, and an industry average weighted average cost of capital. Project cash flows were discounted at a discount rate of 8.0% based on the project’s development stage.

(2)

Sponsor Cash Flows

Sponsor cash flows relate to the cash flows at the equity level after tax equity partner, debt, and taxes.
