At December 31, 2018, the Company's market capitalization was less than its net asset value. This was identified as an indicator of impairment and as a result, the Company completed impairment tests on all of its CGUs in accordance with IAS 36. It was determined that the carrying amounts of the CGUs did not exceed their fair value less costs to sale.

Neither a 5% increase in the discount rate nor a 5% decrease in the forward price estimates used in the impairment assessments would result in an impairment loss on the West Gharib, West Bakr, North West Gharib or Canadian CGUs.
