Biological assets at fair value – current ShinCel (Pty) Ltd plantations in the Mooi River area have been offered for sale and are therefore reflected as current at the end of the financial year. 2. Tax and Deferred tax The Minister of Finance announced during the 2022 budget speech that the income tax rate of 28% would be reduced to 27% with effect from our 2024 tax year. As the rate change has been substantially enacted, deferred tax should be measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled. However, other than in respect of the Forest Resources (Pty) Ltd (Forest Resources) farms sold to NCT Forestry Agricultural Co-operative Limited on 1 March 2022, the estimated portion of deferred tax relating to the 2023 year is immaterial in relation to the total deferred tax, the value would not be able to be calculated accurately and therefore the full deferred tax has been restated at the new rate of 27%. For the Forest Resource farms, the deferred tax has been stated using a 28% tax rate. 3.
