Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices (interest rate and currency risk) will affect the Company’s income

or the value of its holding of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and

control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.

The Company is exposed to risks from movements in foreign exchange rates and interest rates that affect its assets,

liabilities and anticipated future transactions.

Fair value measurement hierarchy:

Level 1: fair value based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: fair value based on inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset

or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices); or

Level 3: fair value based on inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is,

unobservable inputs).

Contingent consideration, included in trade and other payables, are level 3 financial liabilities.

Changes in level 3 instruments are as follows:
