International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 9 'Financial
instruments' (effective 1 January 2018)
· International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 16 'Leases' (effective
1 January 2019)
· Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation -
Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38.
· Equity Method in Separate Financial Statements - Amendments to IAS 27
· Disclosure Initiative - Amendments to IAS 1
· Annual Improvements to IFRSs - 2012 -2014 Cycle.
The directors have assessed the impact of IFRS 15 on the financial statements
of the Group and estimates show that adoption on the 1 January 2018 will
require a restatement of revenue reported for 2017 of approximately £5 million
due to customer rebates currently reported in distribution costs.
The impact of IFRS 16 is also being evaluated and initial estimates would see
a leased asset of approximately £32 million and a leasing liability of £32
million on the Statement of Financial Position as at December 2016.
With the exception of IFRS 15 and IFRS 16 mentioned above, none of the other
standards listed are expected to have a material impact on the Group.
Going concern
The group's business activities, together with the factors likely to affect
its future development, performance and position are described in the Chief
Executive's Review.
The Directors have reviewed current performance and forecasts, combined with
borrowing facilities and expenditure commitments, including capital
expenditure, pensions and proposed dividends. After making enquiries, the
Directors have a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate financial
resources to continue its current operations, including contractual and
commercial commitments for the foreseeable future. For these reasons, the
going concern basis has been adopted in preparing the financial statements.

Estimates
The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make
judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of
accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income
and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, the
significant judgements made by management in applying the group's accounting
policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that
applied to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended
31 December 2016.
Risks and uncertainties
The risk factors which could cause the group's results to differ materially
from expected results and the result of the Board's review of those risks are
set out in the Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 December
2016.
2 SEGMENT REPORTING
The group has 58 operating segments in the UK and three operating segments in
Continental Europe. Each segment represents an individual trading operation
and each operation is wholly aligned to the sales, marketing, supply and
distribution of floorcovering products. The operating results of each
operation are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker, which
is deemed to be the Chief Executive. Discrete financial information is
available for each segment and used by the Chief Executive to assess
performance and decide on resource allocation.
The operating segments have been aggregated to the extent that they have
similar economic characteristics, with relevance to products and services,
type and class of customer, methods of sale and distribution and the
regulatory environment in which they operate. The group's internal management
structure and financial reporting systems differentiate the operating segments
on the basis of the differing economic characteristics in the UK and
Continental Europe and accordingly present these as two separate reportable
segments. This distinction is embedded in the construction of operating
reports reviewed by the Chief Executive, the Board and the executive
management team and forms the basis for the presentation of operating segment
information given below.

Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2016.
In the UK the group's freehold properties are held within Headlam Group plc
and a rent is charged to the operating segments for the period of use.
Therefore, the operating reports reviewed by the Chief Executive show all the
UK properties as unallocated and the operating segments report a segment
result that includes a property rent. This is reflected in the above
disclosure.
Each segment is a continuing operation.
The Chief Executive, the Board and the senior executive management team have
access to information that provides details on revenue by principal product
group for the two reportable segments, as set out in the following table:

4 TAXATION
The group's consolidated effective tax rate in respect of continuing
operations for the six months ended 30 June 2017 was 18.5% (for the six months
ended 30 June 2016: 20%; for the year ended 31 December 2016: 18.9%).
Reductions in the UK corporation tax rate from 20% to 19% (effective from 1
April 2017) and to 18% (effective 1 April 2020) were substantively enacted on
26 October 2015. A further reduction to 17% (effective from 1 April 2020) was
announced in the Budget on 16 March 2016 and substantively enacted on the 6
September 2016. This will reduce the company's future current tax charge
accordingly. The deferred tax asset at 30 June 2017 has been calculated based
on the rate of 17% substantively enacted at the balance sheet date as these
balances will materially reverse after 1 April 2020.
5 EARNINGS PER SHARE

8 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value of the Group's financial assets and liabilities as detailed
below at 30 June 2017 were not materially different to the carrying value.
The table below sets out the Group's accounting classification of each class
of financial assets and liabilities at 30 June 2017.

Derivative assets - 6 - 6
- 6 (1,764) (1,758)
Financial instruments carried at fair value are categorised according to their
valuation method. The different levels have been defined below:
■ Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities.
■ Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly, as prices or
indirectly, derived from prices.
■ Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable
market data (unobservable inputs).
The Group has a diesel commodity swap used for hedging which was fair valued
in accordance with level 2 for the six months ended 30 June 2017 (30 June and
31 December 2016: level 2) and forward currency contracts which were fair
valued in accordance with level 2 (30 June and 31 December 2016: level 2).
Fair values
The carrying amounts shown in the Statement of Financial Position for
financial instruments are a reasonable approximation of fair value.
Trade receivables, trade payables and cash and cash equivalents
Fair values are assumed to approximate to cost due to the short-term maturity
of the instrument.
Borrowings, other financial assets and other financial liabilities
Where available, market values have been used to determine fair values. Where
market values are not available, fair values have been estimated by
discounting expected future cash flows using prevailing interest rate curves.
Amounts denominated in foreign currencies are valued at the exchange rate
prevailing at the Statement of Financial Position date.
9 CAPITAL COMMITMENTS
As at 30 June 2017, the group had contractual commitments relating to the
purchase of property, plant and equipment of £291,000 (30 June 2016: £408,000,
31 December 2016: £663,000).
10 RELATED PARTIES
The group has a related party relationship with its subsidiaries and with its
key management. There have been no changes to the nature of related party
transactions entered into since the last annual report.
11 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management have given due consideration to any events occurring in the period
from the reporting date to the date these Interim Financial Statements were
authorised for issue and have concluded that there are no material adjusting
or non-adjusting events to be disclosed in these Interim Financial
Statements.
