This half‑day webinar provides a practical overview of FRS 118, the new standard on presentation and disclosure in financial statements, effective 1 January 2027. Replacing FRS 1, the standard introduces significant changes to the structure of the statement of profit or loss, including five defined income and expense categories and two new sub‑totals.

Participants will explore the three permitted formats for presenting operating expenses (by nature, by function, and mixed), as well as the mandatory disclosure of expenses by nature. The webinar also covers corresponding updates to the statement of cash flows and the introduction of management‑defined performance measures (MPM) as a new disclosure item.

Finally, the webinar addresses transition requirements, equipping finance professionals with the knowledge to prepare for implementation and ensure compliance with the revised reporting framework.
