Chapter 24
SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
(Subsidiary employees granted rights to the equity instrument of parent)
IFRIC 11 - Share-based payment transactions in which the employees of a subsidiary are
granted rights to the equity instrument of the parent shall also be accounted for as equity-
settled.
The subsidiary shall measure the services received from its employees on the basis of
the fair value of the share options at grant date.
An increase in equity is recognized as a contribution from the parent in the financial
statements of the subsidiary.
Illustration
On January 1, 2020, a parent entity granted 500 share options to each of 100 employees
of a subsidiary, conditional upon the completion of two years of service with the subsidiary.
The FV of the share option is P50 on January 1, 2020.
At grant date, the subsidiary estimated that 80% of the employees will complete the
two-year service period.
At the end of the vesting period. 90% of the employees completed the required two
years of service.
The entity did not require the subsidiary to pay for the shares needed to settle the grant
of share options.
The share options were exercised in January 2022.
The exercise price is P120 and the par value is P100 per share.
