CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
Performance overview
I am pleased to report our 2017 annual results. We achieved a record turnover of GBP536.8m with an underlying revenue growth of 14% at constant exchange rates*. We report an adjusted profit before tax of GBP109.1m* and a statutory profit before tax of GBP117.1m, an increase of 25% on an adjusted basis. Our total shareholder return during the year was 67%, ranking Renishaw in the top 25 in both the FTSE250 and FTSE350.
Renishaw is a long term business and we remain committed to strategic investments and R&D. In addition, over the past year, we have focused on underperforming business areas resulting in our discontinuing the activities of Renishaw Diagnostics Limited and the spatial measurement business. In spite of the potential headwinds brought about by the uncertainty of Brexit, we remain confident of future growth due to our innovative product base, extensive global sales and marketing presence, and relevance to high value manufacturing.
Revenue
We achieved record turnover with revenue for the year ended 30th June 2017 of GBP536.8.m, compared with a restated GBP427.2m for last year, an increase of 26%. There was underlying revenue growth of 14% with the balance arising from exchange rate movements compared to the prior year. The geographical analysis of revenue is as follows:
Restated Constant 2017 2016 Change fx change GBPm GBPm % % Far East 248.9 193.3 +29% +14% Europe 129.9 110.3 +18% +12% Americas 113.6 88.0 +29% +13% UK 27.6 22.8 +21% +21% Other regions 16.8 12.8 +31% +30% --------------------- ------- --------- --------- ----------- Total group revenue 536.8 427.2 +26% +14% --------------------- ------- --------- --------- -----------
Profit and Earnings per share
During the year, it was established that certain foreign currency forward contracts used as hedging instruments for future incoming currency cash flows did not qualify for hedge accounting. This has resulted in the prior year profit before tax being restated and as a consequence the Board has introduced an alternative performance measure, adjusted profit before tax, to report the profitability on the basis that all forward contracts are accounted for as effective hedges. This measure will be the basis by which the Board evaluates the Group's performance as it better represents the underlying trading of the Group. The consolidated net assets and cash balances were not impacted by the prior year adjustment and the future cash flows remain unchanged.
The Group's adjusted profit before tax for the year was GBP109.1m*, an increase of 25% compared to GBP87.5m last year. Adjusted earnings per share on continuing activities were 132.4p compared to 100.4p last year.
Statutory profit before tax for the year was GBP117.1m compared to a restated GBP61.7m last year. Statutory earnings per share on continuing activities were 141.3p compared to 71.8p last year.
This year's tax charge on continuing operations amounts to GBP14.3m (2016 restated: GBP10.0m) representing a tax rate of 12.2% (2016 restated: 16.2%). The tax rate has benefited from the continued phasing in of the patent box tax regime and a reduction in the UK tax rate applied when calculating certain deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Metrology
Revenue from our metrology business for the year was GBP503.4m compared with a restated GBP398.9m last year.
We have experienced revenue growth in all product lines and territories. The geographical analysis of revenue is as follows:
Restated 2017 2016 Change GBPm GBPm % Far East 237.9 185.6 +28% Europe 121.5 101.3 +20% Americas 106.9 83.3 +28% UK 23.2 18.1 +29% Other regions 13.9 10.6 +31% --------------------- ------- --------- --------- Total group revenue 503.4 398.9 +26% --------------------- ------- --------- ---------
There was strong growth in our encoder, measurement and automation, calibration and coordinate measuring machine (CMM) product lines.
Adjusted operating profit for our metrology business was GBP115.9m (2016 restated: GBP90.0m).
We have continued to invest in research and development, with total engineering costs in this business segment of GBP68.8m (before net capitalised development costs and the R&D tax credit) compared to a restated 2016 of GBP60.9m, with a number of new product launches during the year.
In our CMM product line, we launched a new, improved surface finish measurement probe for use with our REVO(R) 5-axis measurement system. The laser calibration product line launched the XM-60 multi-axis calibrator. Designed for the machine tool market, it is a highly accurate laser system used to capture multiple machine errors in a single set-up. In our encoder product line, we launched the VIONiC(TM) series, a new range of ultra-high accuracy, super-compact all-in-one digital incremental encoders. The machine tool product line introduced the new SPRINT(TM) system with SupaScan, bringing the benefits of scanning technology to the mass market. Our additive manufacturing product line introduced the RenAM 500M machine and opened an additional two AM solutions centres in Germany and the USA.
Healthcare
Revenue from our healthcare business for the year was GBP33.4m, an increase of 18% over the GBP28.4m last year. We experienced growth in all our product lines.
Healthcare also saw continued investment in research and development, with total engineering costs in this business segment of GBP9.2m (before net capitalised development costs and the R&D tax credit) compared to a restated 2016 of GBP7.9m.
In our spectroscopy product line, we introduced the RA802 pharmaceutical analyser, designed exclusively for the pharmaceutical industry, enabling users to formulate tablets more efficiently by speeding up the analysis of tablet composition and structure.
The neurological product line continued to make sales of our stereotactic robot and associated neuroinspire planning software, with further sales in the UK, USA and Canada.
The medical dental product line has experienced good growth resulting from a continued focus on sales of additive manufacturing technologies into the healthcare market.
There was an adjusted operating loss of GBP7.2m, compared with a restated loss of GBP3.1m last year. We remain focused on moving this business sector into profit, where we have implemented a number of initiatives and are restructuring the neurological and medical dental businesses.
Discontinued activities
As reported in our October 2016 trading update, the Board decided to discontinue operations at Renishaw Diagnostics Limited (RDL), resulting in the closure of the business. Subsequently, certain assets of the business have been sold.
The RDL business has been accounted for as a discontinued activity, with comparative figures for the previous year being restated accordingly. The loss after tax of GBP3.3m accounted for as a discontinued activity comprises the running costs for RDL, including cessation costs and impairment write offs for assets and goodwill, less amounts received. The loss after tax for the prior year was GBP2.5m.
In June 2017, after an extensive review of the spatial measurement business, the Board decided to discontinue this line of business. Including a goodwill impairment charge of GBP6.7m and provisions for the cessation of the trade, there was a net loss in this business for the year of GBP10.6m (2016: GBP1.5m).
Continued investment for long-term growth
The Group continues its strategy to invest for the long term, expanding our global marketing and distribution infrastructure, along with increasing manufacturing capacity and research and development activities. This year saw the completion of our new USA headquarters near Chicago and the sale of the previous premises. New facilities have also been completed in Detroit (USA) with expansion and refurbishment in Spain, Sweden, Hungary, Germany and France. We also converted our representative office in Turkey into a trading subsidiary to facilitate solution selling in the territory.
Our workforce at the end of June 2017 was 4,530, an increase of 244 in the year, of which 91 were apprentices and graduates taken on as part of our on-going commitment to train and develop skilled resource for the Group in the future.
Capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment for the year was GBP42.6m, of which GBP24.2m was spent on property and GBP18.4m on plant and equipment.
Working capital
Group inventory decreased from GBP95.0m at the start of the year to GBP87.7m. We continue to focus on working capital management whilst remaining committed to our policy of holding sufficient finished inventory to ensure customer delivery performance, given our short order book of approximately five weeks. Trade debtors increased from GBP114.9m to GBP137.5m, with debtor days outstanding at the end of the current year at 73 days (2016: 70 days).
Net cash balances at 30th June 2017 were GBP51.9m, compared with GBP21.3m at 30th June 2016. Additionally, there is an escrow account of GBP12.9m (2016: GBP15.3m) relating to the provision of security to the UK defined benefit pension scheme.
Directors and employees
Now that Will Lee has settled into his role as Group Sales & Marketing Director since his appointment earlier in the year, he will take over responsibility from John Deer for chairing the International Sales & Marketing Board from the start of the new financial year.
The directors would like to express their thanks to all employees for their invaluable support and contribution during the year.
Investor communications
Our fourth investor day was held on 11th May 2017, for existing and potential new investors. This event involves presentations on group strategy, business segments and product lines as well as tours covering the Group's activities and an opportunity to meet the Board and senior management. There was also a Q&A session with the Board. The event was very well attended, and provided shareholders with another opportunity, in addition to the AGM, half-year and full-year webcasts, to learn more about Renishaw's business and strategy.
Outlook
The Group is in a strong financial position and continues to invest in the development of new products and applications, along with targeted investment in production, and sales and marketing facilities around the world. We have experienced strong growth in 2017 and whilst noting ongoing uncertainty surrounding Brexit and currency exchange rate volatility, your directors remain confident in the long-term prospects for the Group and at this early stage in the year anticipate growth in both revenue and profits in the current financial year.
Dividend
A final dividend of 39.5 pence net per share will be paid on 25th October 2017, to shareholders on the register on 22nd September 2017, giving a total dividend of 52.0 pence for the year, an increase of 8.3% over last year's 48.0 pence.

*Footnote
Previous year figures have been restated for the following:
1. The results of Renishaw Diagnostics Limited and the spatial measurement business have been excluded, as these businesses have been reclassified as discontinued activities.
2. The R&D tax credit, previously accounted for within the Income tax expense line, has been reclassified to cost of sales, thereby showing it as part of the profit before tax. This reclassification increased the Profit before tax by GBP2.4m for the year ended 30th June 2016.
3. It has been established that certain foreign currency forward contracts used as hedging instruments for future incoming currency cash flows did not qualify for hedge accounting as they did not meet the hedge effectiveness criteria set out in the International Accounting Standard IAS39 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement'. To ensure technical compliance with this standard it has been necessary to restate the 2016 financial statements resulting in a GBP25.8m reduction to the profit before tax for that year and a corresponding increase in Other Comprehensive Income. The consolidated net assets and cash balances were not impacted by the prior year adjustment and the future cash flows remain unchanged.
Alternative performance measures
Alternative performance measures are -Revenue at constant exchange rates, Adjusted profit before tax, Adjusted earnings per share and Adjusted operating profit.
Revenue at constant exchange rates is defined as Revenue recalculated using the same rates as were applicable to the previous year and excluding forward contract gains and losses.
Revenue at constant exchange rates 2017 2016 GBPm GBPm Statutory revenue as reported 536.8 427.2 Adjustment for exchange rate movements and forward contract gains and losses (52.0) (2.6) Revenue at constant exchange rates 484.8 424.6 ----------------------------------------------------- ------- ------
Adjusted profit before tax, Adjusted earnings per share and Adjusted operating profit are after excluding gains and losses in fair value from forward currency contracts which did not qualify for hedge accounting. The amounts shown below as reported in revenue represent the amount by which revenue would change had all the derivatives qualified as eligible for hedge accounting.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
Renishaw plc (the "Company") is a company incorporated in the UK.
The group financial statements consolidate those of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group") and equity account the Group's interest in associates and joint ventures.
The group financial statements have been prepared and approved by the directors in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU ("adopted IFRS").
The Group identified a number of prior period adjustments during the year, resulting in a restatement of the comparative period in the 2017 financial statements, as detailed in note 20. A third balance sheet has not been presented as the movements are identified in the Consolidated statement of changes in equity.
The accounting policies set out below have, unless otherwise stated, been applied consistently to all periods presented in these group financial statements. Judgements made by the directors, in the application of these accounting policies, that have a significant effect on the financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are noted below.
Basis of accounting
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, subject to items referred to in the derivative financial instruments note below. The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied in preparing both the 2016 and 2017 financial statements.
Critical accounting judgements and estimation uncertainties
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with adopted IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
The areas of key estimation uncertainty and critical accounting judgement that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the next financial year are listed below:
Critical accounting judgements
(i) Capitalisation of development costs
Product development costs are capitalised once a project has reached a certain stage of development and these costs are subsequently amortised over a five-year period. Judgements are required to assess whether the new product development has reached the appropriate point for capitalisation of costs to begin. Should a product be subsequently obsoleted, the accumulated capitalised development costs would need to be immediately written off in the Consolidated income statement.
(ii) Discontinued activities
The closure of certain lines of business have been treated as discontinued operations on the basis that the directors are of the opinion that the underlying performance of the business is better reflected by classifying these items as discontinued.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
(i) Inventory
Determining the value of inventory requires judgement, especially in respect of provisioning for slow moving and potentially obsolete inventory. Management consider historic and future forecast sales patterns of individual stock items when calculating inventory provisions. For most inventory lines, provisions are based on the excess levels held compared to a maximum three year outlook. Where strategic purchases of critical components have been made, an outlook beyond three years is considered where appropriate. The sensitivities around estimates vary from line to line.
(ii) Defined benefit pension scheme liabilities
Determining the value of the future defined benefit obligation requires judgement in respect of the assumptions used to calculate present values. These include future mortality, discount rate, inflation and salary increases. Management makes these judgements in consultation with an independent actuary.
(iii) Amortisation of intangibles and impairment
The periods of amortisation of intangible assets require judgements to be made on the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets to determine an appropriate rate of amortisation. Future assessments of impairment may lead to the writing off of certain amounts of intangible assets and the consequent charge in the Consolidated income statement for the accelerated amortisation. Capitalised development costs are written off over five years, the period over which demand forecasts can be predicted with more certainty.
(iv) Impairment of goodwill
Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of cash-generating units (CGUs) to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation involves an estimation of the future cash flows of CGUs and also the selection of appropriate discount rates, which involves judgement, to calculate present values.
Revenue
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised in the Consolidated income statement when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, which is normally the time of despatch. Where certain products require installation, part of the revenue may be deferred until the installation is complete. No revenue is recognised if there are significant uncertainties regarding recovery of the consideration due, or the possible return of goods.
Revenue from the sale of services is recognised over the period to which the service relates. Where goods and services are sold as a bundle, the fair value of services is deferred and recognised over the period to which the service relates with the remaining revenue recognised on despatch.
Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries - Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights that are exercisable. The acquisition date is the date on which control is transferred to the acquirer. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Losses applicable to the non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling interests even if doing so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance.
Application of the equity method to associates and joint ventures - Associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method (equity accounted investees) and are initially recognised at cost. The Group's investment includes goodwill identified on acquisition, net of any accumulated impairment losses. The consolidated financial statements include the Group's share of the total comprehensive income and equity movements of equity accounted investees, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases. When the Group's share of losses exceeds its interest in an equity accounted investee, the Group's carrying amount is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of an investee.
Transactions eliminated on consolidation - Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Group's interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
Foreign currency derivative cash flow hedges
Foreign currency derivatives are used to manage risks arising from changes in foreign currency rates relating to overseas sales. The Group does not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes. Foreign currency derivatives are stated at their fair value being the estimated amount that the Group would pay or receive to terminate them at the balance sheet date based on prevailing foreign currency rates.
Changes in the fair value of foreign currency derivatives which are designated and effective as hedges of future cash flows are recognised in other comprehensive income and in the currency hedging reserve, and subsequently transferred to the carrying amount of the hedged item or the Consolidated income statement. Realised gains or losses on cash flow hedges are therefore recognised in the Consolidated income statement in the same period as the hedged item.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. At that time, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument previously recognised in equity is retained in equity until the hedged transaction occurs. If the hedged transaction is no longer expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss recognised in equity is then transferred to the Consolidated income statement.
Changes in fair value of foreign currency derivatives which are ineffective or do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting in IAS 39 'Financial instruments: recognition and measurement' are recognised in the Consolidated income statement.
Inventory and work in progress
Inventory and work in progress is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. In respect of work in progress and finished goods, cost includes all production overheads and the attributable proportion of indirect overhead expenses which are required to bring inventories to their present location and condition. Overheads are absorbed into inventories on the basis of normal capacity or on actual hours if higher.
Goodwill and other intangible assets
Costs related to the acquisition, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, are expensed as incurred. Deferred consideration relating to acquisitions is subject to discounting to the date of acquisition and subsequently unwound to the date of the final payment. Goodwill arising on acquisition represents the difference between the cost of the acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired, net of deferred tax. Identifiable intangibles are those which can be sold separately or which arise from legal rights regardless of whether those rights are separable.
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group.
Goodwill is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. It is not amortised but is tested annually for impairment or earlier if there are any indications of impairment. The annual impairment review involves comparing the carrying amount to the estimated recoverable amount and recognising an impairment loss if the recoverable amount is lower. Impairment losses are recognised through the Consolidated income statement.
Intangible assets such as customer lists, patents, trademarks, know-how and intellectual property that are acquired by the Group are stated at cost less amortisation and impairment losses. Amortisation is charged to the Consolidated income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets. The estimated useful lives of the intangible assets included in the Consolidated balance sheet reflect the benefit derived by the Group and vary from five to ten years.
Intangible assets - research and development costs
Expenditure on research activities is recognised in the Consolidated income statement as an expense as incurred. Expenditure on development activities is capitalised if the product or process is technically and commercially feasible and the Group intends and has the technical ability and sufficient resources to complete development, future economic benefits are probable and the Group can measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products or processes. The expenditure capitalised includes the cost of materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Other development expenditure is recognised in the Consolidated income statement as an expense as incurred.
Capitalised development expenditure is amortised over five years and is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and less accumulated impairment losses. Capitalised development expenditure is removed from the balance sheet ten years after being fully amortised.
Employee benefits
The Group operates contributory pension schemes, largely for UK, Ireland and USA employees, which were of the defined benefit type up to 5th April 2007, 31st December 2007 and 30th June 2012 respectively, at which time they ceased any future accrual for existing members and were closed to new members.
The schemes are administered by trustees who are independent of the group finances. Pension scheme assets of the defined benefit schemes are measured using market value. Pension scheme liabilities are measured using a projected unit method and discounted at the current rate of return on a high-quality corporate bond of equivalent term and currency to the liability. Remeasurements arising from defined benefit plans comprise actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest). The Company recognises them immediately in other comprehensive income and all other expenses related to defined benefit plans are included in the Consolidated income statement.
The pension schemes' surpluses, to the extent that they are considered recoverable, or deficits are recognised in full and presented on the face of the Consolidated balance sheet under employee benefits. Where a guarantee is in place in relation to a pension scheme deficit, liabilities are reported in accordance with IFRIC 14. Foreign-based employees are covered by state, defined benefit and private pension schemes in their countries of residence. Actuarial valuations of foreign pension schemes were not obtained, apart from Ireland and USA, because of the limited number of foreign employees. For defined contribution schemes, the amount charged to the Consolidated income statement represents the contributions payable to the schemes in respect of the accounting period.
Accruals are made for holiday pay, based on a calculation of the number of days' holiday earned during the year, but not yet taken.
Going concern
The Group has considerable financial resources at its disposal and the directors have considered the current financial projections. As a consequence, the directors believe that the Group is well placed to manage its business risks successfully.
After making enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the next twelve months. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Annual report and accounts.
Discontinued activities
Where a line of the Group's business is treated as a discontinued operation, the financial statements have been re-presented and restated where required as if operations discontinued during the current year had been discontinued from the start of the comparative year. Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented as a single amount as a loss after tax from discontinued operations in the Consolidated income statement.
Impairment on non-current assets
All non-current assets are tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that their carrying value may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognised in the Consolidated income statement to the extent that an asset's carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount, which represents the higher of the asset's net realisable value and its value in use. An asset's value in use represents the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset or from the cash generating unit to which it relates. The present value is calculated using a discount rate that reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset concerned.
2. SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS
Renishaw manages its operations in two segments, comprising metrology and healthcare products. The results of these segments are regularly reviewed by the Board to allocate resources to segments and to assess their performance. The Group evaluates performance of the segments on the basis of profit before interest, tax and discontinued operations. Within the operating segment of metrology, there are multiple product offerings with similar economic characteristics, and where the nature of the products and production processes and their customer base are similar. The revenue, depreciation and amortisation, and operating profit for each reportable segment were:

Phased reductions in the UK rate of corporation tax to 19% from 1st April 2017 and 17% from 1st April 2020 have been substantively enacted. Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been calculated based on the rate expected to be applicable when the relevant items are expected to reverse.
5. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In October 2016, the Group decided to discontinue operations at Renishaw Diagnostics Limited (healthcare segment) and in June 2017, to discontinue the spatial measurements business (metrology segment), on the basis of continued losses. Certain assets of the business were sold. Financial information relating to the discontinued operations is set out below.

EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations are calculated on earnings of GBP102,886,000 (2016: GBP52,244,000) and on 72,788,543 shares, being the number of shares in issue during both years.
Basic and diluted losses per share from discontinued operations are calculated on losses of GBP13,931,000 (2016: GBP4,024,000) and on 72,788,543 shares, being the number of shares in issue during both years.
There is no difference between the weighted average earnings per share and the basic and diluted earnings per share.

Goodwill acquired has arisen on the acquisition of a number of businesses and has an indeterminable useful life. It is not amortised but is tested for impairment annually and at any point during the year when an indicator of impairment exists. Goodwill is allocated to the CGUs, which are mainly the statutory entities acquired. This is the lowest level in the Group at which goodwill is monitored for impairment and is at a lower level than the Group's operating segments. In the table below, only the goodwill relating to the acquisition of R&R Fixtures, LLC is expected to be subject to tax relief.
The analysis of acquired goodwill on consolidation is:
2017 2016 GBP'000 GBP'000 itp GmbH 3,038 2,886 Renishaw Mayfield S.A. 1,823 1,738 Measurement Devices Limited - 6,661 Renishaw Software Limited 1,559 1,559 R&R Fixtures, LLC 5,327 5,168 Renishaw Diagnostics Limited (92.4%) - 1,784 Other smaller acquisitions 1,511 1,472 Total acquired goodwill 13,258 21,268 --------------------------------------- -------- --------
The recoverable amounts of acquired goodwill are based on value in use calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections based on either the financial business plans approved by management for next five financial years, or estimated growth rates over the five years, which are set out below. The cash flows beyond this forecast are extrapolated to perpetuity using a nil growth rate on a prudent basis, to reflect the uncertainties over forecasting further than five years.
Key assumptions
The key assumptions utilised in the value in use calculations are:
Discount rate
The following pre-tax discount rates have been used in discounting the projected cash flows:
2017 2016 Discount Discount rate rate itp GmbH 12% 12% Renishaw Software Limited R&R Fixtures, LLC 12% 12% 12% 12% Renishaw Mayfield S.A. 15% 15%
Forecast cash flows and future growth rates
2017 2016 Basis of forecast Basis of forecast itp GmbH 5 % growth rate 5% growth rate Renishaw Software Limited 5 % growth rate 5% growth rate R&R Fixtures, LLC 5 year business plan 5 year business plan Renishaw Mayfield S.A. 5 year business plan 5 year business plan
These forecast cash flows are considered prudent estimates based on management's view of the future and experience of past performance of the individual CGUs and are calculated at a disaggregated level. The key judgement within these business plans is the forecasting of revenue growth, given that the cost bases of the businesses can be flexed in line with revenue performance.
The average growth rates included in the significant CGUs business plans are as follows:
2017 2016 Average revenue growth Average revenue growth R&R Fixtures, LLC 14% 13% ------------------- ------------------------ ------------------------
These business plans are recognised as key inputs to the impairment calculation. They are monitored by management regularly and updated for expected variances in future performance.
Sensitivity to key assumptions
Management have performed sensitivity analysis on the key assumptions detailed above.
Discount rate
An increase of 5% in the discount rate would not result in an impairment on any of the CGUs. Management believe any increase in discount rates above 5% to be remote.
Forecast cash flows and future growth rates
Given the average revenue growth assumptions included in the five-year business plans, management's sensitivity analysis involves a reduction of 10% in the forecast cash-flows utilised in those business plans and therefore into perpetuity. For R&R Fixtures, LLC, for there to be an impairment there would need to be a reduction of 44% in the forecast cash flows.

No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of tax losses carried forward of GBP22,147,000 (2016: GBP16,393,000) due to the uncertainty over their recoverability, as a significant proportion held in overseas subsidiaries may only be carried forward for a limited period of time.

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
The Group operates a number of pension schemes throughout the world. As noted in the accounting policies, actuarial valuations of foreign pension schemes are not obtained for the most part because of the limited number of foreign employees.
The major scheme, which covers the UK-based employees, was of the defined benefit type. This scheme, along with the Ireland and USA defined benefit schemes, has ceased any future accrual for current members and these schemes are closed to new members. UK, Ireland and USA employees are now covered by defined contribution schemes.
The total pension cost of the Group for the year was GBP20,238,000 (2016: GBP18,061,000), of which GBP158,000 (2016: GBP184,000) related to directors and GBP6,292,000 (2016: GBP4,854,000) related to overseas schemes.
The latest full actuarial valuation of the UK defined benefit scheme was carried out as at September 2015 and updated to 30th June 2017 by a qualified independent actuary. The mortality assumption used for 2017 is S2PMA and S2PFA tables, CMI (core) 2016 model with long term improvements of 1% per annum.
The major assumptions used by the actuary for the UK and Ireland schemes were:
2017 2016 ----------------------------- -------------------- -------------------- UK scheme Ireland UK scheme Ireland scheme scheme Rate of increase in pension payments 3.3% 1.6% 3.2% 1.5% Discount rate 2.7% 2.2% 3.2% 2.0% Inflation rate (RPI) 3.4% 1.6% 3.3% 1.5% Inflation rate (CPI) 2.4% - 2.3% - Retirement age 64 65 64 65
The assets and liabilities in the defined benefit schemes at the end of the year were:
2017 2016 GBP'000 GBP'000 Market value of assets: Equities 169,433 145,914 Bonds and cash 1,275 3,313 170,708 149,227 Actuarial value of liabilities (237,495) (217,050) Deficit in the schemes (66,787) (67,823) --------------------------------- ---------- ---------- Deferred tax thereon 11,024 12,528 --------------------------------- ---------- ----------
All equities have quoted prices in active markets in the UK, North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Japan and emerging markets.
The weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation is around 24 years.
The movements in the schemes' assets and liabilities were:
Assets Liabilities Total Year ended 30th June 2017 GBP'000 GBP'000 GBP'000 Balance at the beginning of the year 149,227 (217,050) (67,823) Contributions paid 4,204 - 4,204 Interest on pension schemes 4,681 (6,241) (1,560) Remeasurement gain/(loss) 19,028 (20,636) (1,608) Benefits paid (6,432) 6,432 - Balance at the end of the year 170,708 (237,495) (66,787) --------------------------------- -------- ------------ ---------
An agreement has been entered into with the trustees of the UK defined benefit pension scheme in relation to deficit funding plans which supersede the previous arrangements. The Company has agreed to pay all monthly pensions payments and lump sum payments, and transfer payments up to a limit of GBP1,000,000 in each year (Benefits in Payment).
A number of UK properties owned by the Company are subject to fixed charges. One or more of the properties may be released from the fixed charge if on a subsequent valuation, the value of all properties under charge exceed 120% of the deficit.
The Company has also established an escrow bank account, which is subject to a floating charge. The balance of this account was GBP12,850,000 at the end of the year (2016: GBP15,279,000). The funds will be released back to the Company from the escrow account over a period of 6 years.
The agreement continues until 30th June 2031, but may end sooner if the deficit (calculated on a self sufficiency basis as defined in the agreement) is eliminated in the meantime. At 30th June 2031 the Company is obliged to pay any deficit at that time. All properties will be released from charge when the deficit no longer exists. The charges may be enforced by the trustees if one of the following occurs: (a) the Company does not pay any Benefits in Payment; (b) an insolvency event occurs in relation to the Company; or (c) the Company does not pay any deficit at 30th June 2031.
Under the Ireland defined benefit pension scheme deficit funding plan, a property owned by Renishaw (Ireland) Limited is subject to a registered fixed charge to secure the Ireland defined benefit pension scheme's deficit.
No scheme assets are invested in the Group's own equity.
The present value of projected future contributions under the new agreement relating to the UK defined benefit scheme exceeds the value of the deficit at the year-end, therefore, under IFRIC 14, the UK defined benefit pension scheme's liabilities have been increased by GBP16,200,000, to represent the maximum discounted liability as at 30th June 2017 (2016: GBP15,400,000).

19. ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Alternative performance measures used are:
Adjusted profit before tax, Adjusted earnings per share and Adjusted operating profit - These measures are defined as the profit before tax, earnings per share and operating profit after excluding gains and losses in fair value from forward currency contracts which did not qualify for hedge accounting.
The losses from fair value of financial instruments not effective for cash flow hedging have been excluded from statutory profit before tax, statutory earnings per share and statutory operating profit in arriving at adjusted profit before tax, adjusted earnings per share and adjusted operating profit to reflect the Board's intent that the instruments would provide effective hedges. The Board consider these alternative performance measures to be more relevant and reliable in evaluating the Group's performance going forward until the impact of ineffective hedges unwinds.
The amounts shown below as reported in revenue represent the amount by which revenue would change had all the derivatives qualified for hedge accounting.
Adjustments to the profit before tax were: 2017 2016 GBP'000 GBP'000 Statutory profit before tax 117,101 61,703 Fair value gains and losses on financial instruments not eligible for hedge accounting: - reported in revenue (11,623) 2,336 - reported in losses in fair value in financial instruments 3,601 23,436 Adjusted profit before tax 109,079 87,475 ------------------------------------------------------- --------- -------- Adjustments to the earnings per share were: 2017 2016 pence pence Statutory earnings per share 141.3 71.8 Fair value gains and losses on financial instruments not eligible for hedge accounting: - reported in revenue (12.9) 2.6 - reported in losses in fair value in financial instruments 4.0 26.0 Adjusted earnings per share 132.4 100.4 ------------------------------------------------------- ------- ------ Adjustments to the operating profit were: 2017 2016 GBP'000 GBP'000 Statutory operating profit 116,755 61,180 Fair value gains and losses on financial instruments not eligible for hedge accounting: - reported in revenue (11,623) 2,336 - reported in losses in fair value in financial instruments 3,601 23,436 Adjusted operating profit 108,733 86,952 ------------------------------------------------------- --------- -------- Adjustments to the segmental operating profit 2017 2016 were: Metrology GBP'000 GBP'000 Operating profit before loss from fair value of financial instruments 126,830 87,717 Fair value gains and losses on financial instruments not eligible for hedge accounting: - reported in revenue (10,921) 2,293 Adjusted metrology operating profit 115,909 90,010 ------------------------------------------------------- --------- -------- 2017 2016 Healthcare GBP'000 GBP'000 Operating loss before loss from fair value of financial instruments (6,474) (3,101) Fair value gains and losses on financial instruments not eligible for hedge accounting: - reported in revenue (702) 43 Adjusted healthcare operating loss (7,176) (3,058) ------------------------------------------------------- -------- -------- 20. RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUS YEAR
The previous year's results have been restated for the following:
Certain foreign currency forward contracts used as hedging instruments did not qualify for hedge accounting as they did not meet the hedge effectiveness criteria set out in the International Accounting Standard IAS39 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. To ensure technical compliance with this standard it has been deemed necessary to restate the 2016 financial statements resulting in a GBP25.8m reduction to the profit before tax for that year and a corresponding increase in other comprehensive income.
In October 2016, the Board decided to discontinue operations at Renishaw Diagnostics Limited (RDL), resulting in the closure of the business. The RDL business has been accounted for as a discontinued activity, with comparative figures for the previous year being restated accordingly. In June 2017, after an extensive review of the spatial measurements business, the Board decided to discontinue this line of business. This business has also been accounted for as a discontinued activity, with comparative figures for the previous year being restated accordingly.
The R&D tax credit, previously accounted for within the Income tax expense line has been reclassified to be part of cost of sales, thereby showing it as part of the profit before tax.
The previous year's results have been restated for the following:

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Our performance is subject to a number of risks, of which the principal risks and changes impacting on them are set out in the table below.
The Board has conducted a robust assessment of the principal risks facing the business. With the exception of the potential impacts of Brexit, no new principal risks have emerged during the financial year. As reported in the Chairman's statement, the full business implications of Brexit remain uncertain, which will be the case for some time, and the risks arising will be a key focus area for the risk committee. Currency fluctuations, trading arrangements, employment issues and other risks that become apparent over time will be monitored by the committee and mitigations put in place where possible.
