(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
IFRS 15 – Revenue from contracts with customers
Date: 24th March 2026
Time: 4.00pm-6.00pm
Venue: Virtual
Overview
Before IFRS 15 came into effect, revenue recognition in Kenya was guided by a patchwork of older standards—mainly IAS 11 (Construction Contracts) and IAS 18 (Revenue)—each with differing principles and inconsistent application across industries. This created challenges in comparability and interpretation, especially for entities with complex or long-term contracts.
The introduction of IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective January 2018, revolutionized revenue recognition by introducing a single, principles-based model applicable to all industries. IFRS 15 established a clear five-step framework for recognizing revenue, ensuring that financial statements reflect the amount and timing of revenue that truly represents the transfer of goods or services to customers.
For Kenyan businesses, correct application of IFRS 15 is critical in promoting trust, consistency, and transparency among investors, lenders, regulators, and clients. The standard continues to be the cornerstone for how companies—from construction and telecommunications to financial services and technology—measure and report revenue from customer contracts. As entities integrate digital business models, performance-based contracts, and subscription services, revisiting IFRS 15’s requirements remain crucial for accurate reporting and compliance.
