Sir, I have some queries about the PYQ Sep/Dec 2015 Q1 part a(ii) "Recommeded additional information"
for 1st point : What is the terms of the flotation refers to here?
for 4th point: Why need to know the details on the planned listing in next year?will it affect this year FS?
for 6th point : What is the period of forecast refers to?including this year or next year onward?as in the examiner report stated that the question is set almost a month prior to year end and so financial statement and year-end balances not yet available.
Thank you.

Sep/Dec 2015 Q1 a(ii)
6y ago#11. Well anything you can think I guess - the structure of the offer - whether it's to the public at large and/or institutional investors - in what %s - special terms for any % for employees (e.g. discount), "lock-up commitments" (i.e. minimum period that shares cannot be sold - e.g. 6 months to a year) - how long the offer will last (e.g. 5 - 10 trading days)
2. Don't lose sight of the requirement - this is in the context of the evaluation of audit risk - e.g. the more ambitious the plans the greater the pressure on management. Senior executives have been granted share options in connection with successful domestic listing - might they not expect similar from future listing on a foreign exchange?
3. As it says "including a statement of cash flows to assess the working capital issues faced by the company" I would take this to be 12 months after reporting date. (It is only actual amounts to the reporting date are not available, but the Q gives projected figures for the current year.)
