Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2023

CONTENTS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR IN REVIEW DIRECTORS’ REPORT CORPORATE DIRECTORY SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION 16. Reserves The Company provides benefits to employees (including Directors) in the form of share-based payments whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (share-based payments). The cost of these share-based payments with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date they are granted. The value is determined using an appropriate valuation model. In valuing share-based payments, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Sheffield (market conditions) if applicable. The cumulative expense is recognised for share-based payments at each reporting date until vesting date and reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the number of awards, that will ultimately vest. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition. Where the terms of a share-based payment are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any increase in the value of the transaction as a result of the modification as measured at the date of modification. Where a share-based payment is cancelled (other than cancellation when a vesting condition has not been satisfied), it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is submitted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new awards are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
