Change in presentation currency
The Directors have elected to change the Group’s presentation currency in the financial statements from Hong Kong dollar (“HK$”) to US$ to better reflect the economic footprint of our business. The directors of the Company believes that the presentation currency change will give investors and other stakeholders a clearer understanding of the Group’s performance over time. The change in presentation currency is a voluntary change which is accounted for retrospectively in the consolidated financial statements and all comparative financial information has been restated accordingly, unless otherwise stated. The change in presentation currency resulted in foreign currency translation adjustment to the Group’s other comprehensive income amounting to a loss of US$
574
 
and
 US$4,145
 
for the years ended April 30, 2021 and 2022, respectively. The change in presentation currency resulted in restated exchange reserve of
 US$516
 
and US$4,715
as of May 1, 2021 and April 30, 2022, respectively.
