INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Owner of Granolio Group:

Opinion

We have audited the annual consolidated financial statements of Granolio d.d., Zagreb (the Company), and its subsidiaries (the Group) which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2016, and the consolidated statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, except for the possible effects of the issues described in our report in the Basis for Qualified opinion the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2016, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

During the acquisition of mill operations, the Group recognized the goodwill of Mlineta and Belje as indicated in Note 14. On 31 December 2016, the value of the goodwill was HRK 60,379 thousand and the value of the brands was HRK 120,000 thousand. In accordance with the International Accounting Standard 36: Impairment of Assets The Group is obliged to evaluate each year whether there are any impairment indicators of the asset. On the basis of the current economic situation, it is estimated that there are impairment indicators. When assessing the value of the impairment of the asset concerned, significant assumptions relate to the possibility of realizing the income of the said brands on the market of the Republic of Croatia. Taking into account the current economic situation and the availability of information, the Management Board has not been able to collect enough information to make an assessment of the impairment of the asset. In accordance with the aforementioned, we could not collect sufficient and appropriate audit evidence related to the value of goodwill and brands' impairment, and we could not determine if any adjustments had to be made.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Audit Act and International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) and we have fulfilled our ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key Audit Matters How we solved the key audit matter
Revenue
Revenue is measured at fair value of the
consideration received, that is, the
consideration that is claimed for the goods,
goods or services sold within the ordinary
course of business of the company. Revenue
is stated net of value added tax, quantity
discounts and cash discount.
The procedures we applied included asking
management questions, testing

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)

Key Audit Matters (continued)

Discounts and return on goods are estimated
based on past experience. Quantitative
discounts are estimated based on estimated
annual sales revenues. Receivables based on
the sale under conditions that contain the
financing element, i.e. when the payment
deadline exceeds 60 days, are classified as
short-term financial assets.
(II) Revenues from retail sales of goods
and merchandise
Revenues from the sale of goods and
merchandise are shown after the sale to the
buyer. Revenues from retail sale are realized
in cash. The group does not have any special
customer reward programs.
(i)
Revenues from services
Service revenues are calculated and
reported in the accounting period in which
the services are provided by the degree of
completion of the specific transaction and on
the basis of the actual service performed in
proportion to the total service to be
provided.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. With respect to the Management Report and the Corporate Governance Statement, which are included in the Annual Report, on pages 1 to 12 under the heading "Annual Report of the Management Board on Business and the Status of the Group for 2016 Years" or "Corporate Governance Code", we have also performed the procedures prescribed by the Accounting Act. These procedures include examination of whether the Management Report includes required disclosures as set out in the Article 21 and 24 of the Accounting Act and whether the Corporate Governance Statement includes the information specified in the Article 22 of the Accounting Act.

Based on the procedures performed during our audit, to the extent we are able to assess it, we report that:

  • 1) Information included in the other information is, in all material respects, consistent with the attached annual financial statements.
  • 2) Management Report for the year 2016 has been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with Article 21 and 24 of the Accounting Act.
  • 3) Corporate Governance Statement has been prepared, in all material aspects, in accordance with the Article 22, paragraph 1, items 3 and 4 of the Accounting Act, and includes also the information from Article 22, paragraph 1, point 2, 5, 6 and 7 of the noted Act.

Deloitte.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)

Other Information (continued)

Based on the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment, which we gained during our audit of the financial statements, we have not identified material misstatements in the other information. We have nothing to report in this respect.

Responsibilities of Management and the Supervisory Board for the consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRSs, adopted by the European Union and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Supervisory board is responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • · Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • · Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • · Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  • · Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

Deloitte.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (continued)

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any sizgnificant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safequards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Branislav Vrtačnik.

Impact of IFRSs 15

IFRS 15 establishes a unique, comprehensive model for entities that derive revenue from customer contracts. IFRS 15 will, in effect, replace the existing revenue recognition guidelines, including IAS 18 "Revenue", IAS 11 "Construction Contracts" and related interpretations.

The underlying principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognizes revenue as a reflection of the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer in the amount reflecting the remuneration it expects to be entitled to in return for the promised good or service. Specifically, the new revenue standard introduces access to recognition and measurement of revenue through five steps:

    1. Step 1: Identify the contract (s) with the buyer
    1. Step 2: Determine the Contract on Obligations to Perform
    1. Step 3: Determine the price of the transaction
    1. Step 4: Transfer the price of the transaction to the contractual obligations to the performance
    1. Step 5: Recognize revenue when, i.e., how an entity fulfills its obligation to perform

The Group expects that adoption of IFRS 15 will have an impact on the Group's financial statements for the first time they are applied, but it is not currently possible to determine the significance of the impact.

Impact of IFRSs 16

The Group envisages that adoption of IFRS 16 will have an impact on the Group's financial statements during their first application period, but it is not currently possible to determine the significance of the impact.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies of the Group adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are as follows. These policies have been consistently applied by the Group and all its subsidiaries for all periods included in these consolidated financial statements.

3.1 Statement of compliance

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Reporting Standards, as adopted by European Union.

3.2 Basis of preparation

The financial statements of the Group have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain properties and financial instruments which are carried at revalued amounts or at fair value, as disclosed in the corresponding accounting policies, and in accordance with International Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union, and Croatian laws. The historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for an asset.

The Group maintains its accounting records in the Croatian Kuna and in accordance with Croatian laws and the accounting principles and practices observed by enterprises in Croatia.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with International Reporting Standards (IFRSs) requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 4.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and controlled entities, i.e. its subsidiaries, including structured entities. Control is achieved if:

  • · The Company has power to dispose of the subject
  • · The Company is exposed, or has rights in relation to a variable yield on the basis of their participation in that entity
  • · The Company is able on the basis of ability to dispose to affecte on its yield

Company reassesses whether it has control if facts and circumstances indicate that there is a change of one or more of the three above-mentioned elements of control.

When the Company in a subject has less than the majority of the voting rights, it has majority in him if his voting rights are sufficient because in practice it allows them to unanimously direct important activities of the entity. The Company in assessing whether his voting rights in the subject are sufficient to have supremacy to considers about all relevant facts and circumstances, including:

Share of voting rights in relation to the size and distribution of the voting rights of other persons entitled to vote

  • · Potential voting rights of investors, the other person's voting or other persons
  • · Rights from other contractual relations and

· Any additional facts and circumstances indicate that the Company has or does not have the current ability to keep relevant tasks in the time that is necessary to make such decisions, including how they voted on the previous shareholder meetings.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

3.3 Basis of consolidation (Continued)

The subsidiary is consolidated, or cease to be consolidated from the moment in which the Company acquires or loses control over it. Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date on which the Company acquires control until the date on which the Company loses control of the subsidiary.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are separated on the part of the parent (Company) and on the part of the owners of non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the company and the owners of non-controlling interests, even if this leads to a negative balance of non-controlling interests.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the profit or loss on disposal is calculated as the difference between i) the total fair value of the fee received and the fair value of eventual retained interest ii) the previous carrying amount of assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary, and every non-controlling interest. All figures are based on the subsidiary previously been recognized in other comprehensive income are accounted as if the Group had directly sold the assets or liabilities of that company, ie. figures are transferred to profit or loss. or in any of the components of shareholders' equity in accordance with applicable IFRS. The fair value of the retained interest in the former subsidiary at the date of loss of control at the subsequent accounting under IAS 39, regarded as the fair value of initial recognition and, if it is applicable, as a cost during the initial recording of shares in the associate or joint venture.

34 Business combinations

Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are generally recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognised at their fair value, except that:

  • · deferred tax assets or liabilities, and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognised and measured in accordance with IAS 12 Income Taxes and IAS 19 respectively;
  • · liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree or sharebased payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with IFRS 2 at the acquisition date (see Note 3.16.2); and
  • · assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations are measured in accordance with that Standard.

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.

Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity's net assets in the event of liquidation may be initially measured either at fair value or at the noncontrolling interests' proportionate share of the recognised amounts of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis.

Other types of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value or, when applicable, on the basis specified in another IFRS.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

3.4 Business combinations (continued)

Measurement period adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the 'measurement period' (which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date.

The subsequent accounting for changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments depends on how the contingent consideration is classified. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured at subsequent reporting dates and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.

Contingent consideration that is classified as an asset or a liability is remeasured at subsequent reporting dates in accordance with IAS 39, or IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, as appropriate, with the corresponding gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss.

When a business combination is achieved in stages, the Group's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to its acquisition-date fair value and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognised in profit or loss. Amounts arising from interests in the acquisition date that have previously been recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss where such treatment would be appropriate if that interest were disposed of.

If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period (see above), or additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised at that date.

3.5 Goodwill

Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at the date of acquisition of the business (see Note 3.21) less accumulated impairment losses, if any.

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.

On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.

The Group's policy for goodwill arising on the acquisition of an associate and a joint venture is described in Note 3.21.

3.6 Interests in associates and joint ventures

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control over those policies.

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

3.6 Interests in associates and joint ventures (Continued)

The results, assets and liabilities of associates or joint ventures are incorporated in financial statements using the equity method of accounting, except when the investment, or a portion thereof, is classified as held for sale, in which case it is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 5. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate or a joint venture is initially recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate or joint venture. When the Group's share of losses of an associate or a joint venture exceeds the Group's interest in that associate or joint venture (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group's net investment in the associate or joint venture), the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses. Additional losses are recognised only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.

An investment in an associate or a joint venture is accounted for using the equity method from the date on which the investee becomes an associate or a joint venture. On acquisition of the investment in an associate or a joint venture, any excess of the cost of the investment over the Group's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the investee is recognised as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the investment, after reassessment, is recognised immediately in profit or loss in the investment is acquired.

The requirements of IAS 39 are applied to determine whether it is necessary to recognise any impairment loss with respect to the Group's investment in an associate or a joint venture. When necessary, the entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value less costs of disposal) with its carrying amount, Any impairment loss recognised forms part of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognised in accordance with IAS 36 to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.

The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the investment ceases to be an associate or a joint venture, or when the investment is classified as held for sale. When the Group retains an interest in the former associate or joint venture and the retained interest is a financial asset, the Group measures the retained interest at fair value at that date and the fair value is regarded as its fair value on initial recognition in accordance with IAS 39. The difference between the carrying amount of the associate or joint venture at the equity method was discontinued, and the fair value of any retained interest and any proceeds from disposing of a part interest in the associate or joint venture is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal of the associate or joint venture. In addition, the Group accounts for all amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate or joint venture on the same basis as would be required if that associate or joint venture had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. Therefore, if a gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income by that associate or joint venture would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities, the Group reclassifies the gain or loss from equity to profit or loss (as a reclassification adjustment) when the equity method is discontinued.

The Group continues to use the equity method when an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate. There is no re-measurement to fair value upon such changes in ownership interests.

When the Group reduces its ownership interest in an associate or a joint venture but the Group continues to use the equity method, the Group reclassifies to profit or loss the proportion of the gain or loss that had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income relating to that reduction in ownership interest if that gain or loss would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities.

Gains and losses on transactions between a company which is a member of the Group and the associate or joint venture within the Group in the consolidated financial statements of the Group are recognized only to the extent of interests in the associate or joint venture that is not related to the Group.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

3.7 Interests in joint operations

A joint venture is a joint venture in which the parties that have joint control over the work they have rights to the net assets of the required work. Joint control is the agreed division of control over some work, which exists only when it is to decide on relevant matters require unanimous consent of the parties that share control.

Any goodwill arising from the acquisition of the Group's shares in the common control of a given company is calculated in accordance with the Group's accounting policy for calculating of goodwill resulting from business merger.

Unrealized gains and losses from transactions between the Group and the companies over which it has joint control are eliminated in proportion to the Group's share in the joint venture. Gains and losses from transactions between the Group and jointly controlled companies in the consolidated financial statements of the Group are recognized only to the extent of interest in jointly controlled companies that are not related to the Group.

3.8 Interests in joint management

A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

When a Group entity undertakes its activities under joint operations, the Group, as a joint operator, recognises in relation to its interest in a joint operation:

  • · its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly;
  • · its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly;
  • · its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation;
  • · its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and
  • · its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.

The Group accounts for the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to its interest in a joint operation in accordance with the IFRSs applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

When a Group entity transacts with a joint operation in which entity from Group is a joint operator (such as a sale or contribution of assets), the Group is considered to be conducting the transaction with the other parties to the joint operation, and gains and losses resulting from the transactions are recognised in the Group's consolidated financial statements only to the extent of other parties' interests in the joint operation.

When a group entity transacts with a joint operation in which a goint operator (such as a purchase of assets), the Group does not recognise its share of the gains and losses until it resells those assets to a third party.

3.9 Functional and presentation currency

The financial statements are prepared in the Croatian currency, the Croatian kuna (HRK), which is also the Company's functional currency, rounded to the nearest thousand.

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the Croatian kuna by applying the exchange rates in effect at the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are retranslated at the exchange rates in effect at the reporting date. Gains and losses on the retranslation from transaction dates to the reporting date are included in the statement of comprehensive income.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

3.10 Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires from management to make judgments. estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. These estimates and the underlying are based on past experience and various other pertinent factors and are believed to be reasonable under given circumstances and constitute a reliable basis for developing estimates of the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are regularly reviewed. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period of revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Areas of judgement made by the Management Board in applying IFRS that have a significant impact on the financial statements as well as areas of judgement involving a risk of material adjustment in the following year are presented in Note 4.

3.11 Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration receivable for products, goods or services sold in the regular course of the Group's operations. Revenues are stated net of value added tax, quantity and sales discounts

The Group recognises revenue when the amount of the revenue can be measured reliably, when future economic benefits will flow into the Group and when the specific criteria for all the Group's activities described below are met.

Income from the wholesale of products and merchandise (i)

The Group produces and distributes its own products as well as third-party merchandise (wholesale operations). Wholesale revenue is recognised when the Group has delivered the wholesaler, when it no longer controls the management of the goods and when there is no outstanding liability that could affect the acceptance of the products by the wholesaler.

A delivery is completed when the products are dispatched to a specific location, the risk of loss are transferred to the wholesaler and one of the following is met: the wholesaler has accepted the goods in accordance with the underlying contract; or the acceptance deadline has passed; or the Group has objective evidence that all the acceptance criteria are met.

Products are sold at the agreed volume discounts, with the right of the customers to return faulty goods. Sales revenue is recognised based on the price from the underlying sales contract, less any estimated volume and sales discounts, and returns. The discounts and returns are assessed based on past experience. Volume discounts are assessed based on anticipated annual sales are made under terms and conditions that involve financing elements, i.e. where the collection period is longer than 60 days, the receivables are classified as short-term financial assets.

(ii) Income from the retail sale of products and merchandise

Retail product and merchandise sales are recognised upon the sale to the customer. Retail sales are generated in cash. The Group does not have specific customer award schemes.

(iii) Service income

Service sales are recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered, by reference to completion of the specific transaction assessed on the basis of the actual service provided as a proportion of the total services to be provided.

Financial income (iv)

Financial income consists of interest earned on investments and foreign exchange gains. Interest income is recognised when it arises using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognised when the right to established. has been receive payment

3.12 Leasing

The Group as lessor

Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Group as lessee

The Group leases certain property, plant and equipment. Leases of property, plant and equipment under which the Group bears all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as financial leases are capitalised at the inception of the lease by reference to the lower of the fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payment. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance charges so as to achieve a constant rate on the balance outstanding. The interest element of the finance costs is charged to the statement of comprehensive income over the lease period. Property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term.

Leases under which the Group does not bear all the significant risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases. Payments under operating leases are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the term of the underlying lease.

3.13 Foreign currencies

(i) Foreign-currency transactions and balances

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are converted to the functional currency using the exchange rate list in effect at the transaction date, At the reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency using the exchange rates in effect at that date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.

Non-monetary assets and items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at historical cost are not retranslated.

Foreign-currency denominated non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at historical cost currencies are translated to the functional currency using the exchange rate list in effect at the transaction dates.

The valid exchange rate of the Croatian currency at 31 December 2016 was 7.557787 for 1 EUR and 31 December 2015 was HRK 7.635047 for 1 EUR.

(ii) Group members

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ("the functional currency"). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Croatian kuna ("HRK"), which is also the functional currency.

3.14 Borrowing costs

Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, less transaction costs. In future periods, borrowings are stated at amortized cost; all differences between receivables (minus transaction costs) and redemption value are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income over the period of the borrowing period using the effective interest rate method.

Borrowing costs that can be directly linked to the acquisition or production of a qualifying asset, a means that necessarily requires a considerable amount of time to be ready for intended use or sale, are attributed to the cost of purchasing that asset until the asset is largely unavailable for Intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are included in profit or loss for the period in which they are incurred.

3.15 Government grants

Government grants are not recognized until the fulfilment of conditions for obtaining state grants and the receipt of grants does not become real certain. Government grants are recognized in profit or loss systematically over the period in which the Group expenses that should be covered by grants are recognized as an expense. In particular, state grants where the basic condition is that the Group purchase, construct or otherwise acquire longterm assets are recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position as deferred income and transferred to profit or loss systematicl and rational basis over the useful life of the underlying assets. Receivables according to state grants from addres compensation already incurred costs or to provide immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognized in profit and loss in the period in which the liability is incurred by them.

3.16 Employee benefits

Obligations in respect of retirement and other post-employment benefits (i)

In the normal course of business the Company makes payments, through salary deductions, to mandatory pension funds on behalf of its employees as required by law. All contributions paid to the mandatory pension funds are recognised as salary expense when accrued. The Company has no obligation to provide any other postemployment benefits.

Long-term employee benefits (ii)

The Group does not recognises obligation for long-term employee benefits (jubilee awards), as they are not included in the employment contracts or defined by other legal acts.

(iii) Short-term employee benefits

The Group recognises a provision for bonuses to employees when there is a contractual obligation or a past practice giving rise to a constructive obligation.

(iv) Share-based payments

The Company makes no share-based payments to its employees.

3.17 Dividends

Dividends payable to shareholders are recognized as a liability in the financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the Group's shareholders.

3.18 Operating segment reporting

A segment is a part of the Group that may be separated either as a part engaged in the production of a product or provision of a service (an operating segment), or as a part engaged in the production of a provision of service within an economic environment (a geographic segment) which is subject to the risks and rewards different from those of other segments.

Based on the internal reporting structure, the Group monitors the performance of the following segments:

  • Mill operations
  • Dairy .
  • Wholesale
  • Others (services, cattle growing, other activities)

The Group identifies operating segments on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. Details about the operating segments of the Company are disclosed in Note 6 to the separate financial statements. Comparative information has been presented on the principle of comparability.

3.19 Taxation

(i) Income tax

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred taxes. Income tax expense is recognised in profit or loss to the extent of the tax relating to items within equity when the expensed through other comprehensive profit. Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Current tax represents tax expected to be paid on the basis of taxable profit for the year, using the tax rate enacted at the reporting date, adjusted by appropriate prior-period items.

(ii) Deferred tax assets and liabilities

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction (other than a business combination) that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit and if temporary differences relate to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled companies where the reversal is not probable in the near future. Deferred taxes are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the temporary differences will reverse, based on tax laws effective at the reporting date.

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised through reversal of the temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset when there is a legal right to offset a current tax liability and a current tax asset and if they relate to taxes imposed by the same tax authority to the same taxable entity, or to various entities, but which intend to settle the current liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to recover or settle the carrying amount of the tax assets and liabilities simultaneously.

(iii) Tax exposure

In determining current and deferred taxes, the impact of uncertain tax positions as well as potential additional taxes and interest. The consideration is based on estimates and assumptions and may involve a series of judgements about future events. New data may become available that may cause the Group to revise is judgement about the adequacy of the existing tax liabilities, and any changes in the tax liabilities will affect the tax expense in the period in which such a decision is made.

(iv) Value-added tax (VAT)

The Tax Authorities require that VAT is settled on a net basis. VAT on sale and purchase transactions is recognised in the separate statement of financial position on a net basis. If a trade debtor is impaired, the related impairment loss is included in the gross amount receivable from the debtor, which includes VAT.

3.20 Property, plant and equipment

Land and buildings held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes, are stated in the consolidated statement of financial position at their revalued amounts, being the fair value at the date of revaluation, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are performed with sufficient regularity such that the carrying amounts do not differ materially from those that would be determined using fair values at the end of each reporting period.

Any revaluation increase arising on the revaluation of such land and buildings is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease for the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss, in which case the increase is credited to profit or loss to the extent of the decrease previously expensed. A decrease in the carrying amount arising on the revaluation of such land and buildings is recognised in profit or loss to the extent that it exceeds the balance, if any, held in the properties revaluation reserve relating to a previous revaluation of that asset.

Properties in the course of construction, supply or administrative purposes are carried at cost, less any recognised impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees and, for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the Group's accounting policy. Such properties are classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

Depreciation on revalued buildings is recognised in profit or loss. On the subsequent sale or retirement of a revalued property, the attributable revaluation surplus remaining in the properties revaluation reserve is transferred directly to retained earnings.

Freehold land is not depreciated.

Installations and equipment are stated at cost less impairment losses and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated in such a way that the acquisition or estimated value of the property, other than the land owned and the tangible fixed assets, is written off during the estimated useful life using the straight-line method. Estimated useful life, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each year, with the effects of possible changes in estimates being calculated prospectively.

The useful lives applied for the purpose of determining the depreciation charge are as follows:

2016 2015
Buildings 40 years 40 years
Plant and equipment 10 years 10 years
Office equipment and delivery vans 4 years 4 years
Telecommunication equipment 2 years 2 years
Personal cars 2,5 years 2,5 years
Compulsory vehicles 4 years 4 years

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis as owned assets. However, when there is no reasonable certainty that ownership will be obtained by the lease term, assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.

321 Intangible assets

Intangible assets may be acquired in exchange for a non-cash asset or for cash, or a combination of both, where the cost of such an asset is determined at the fair value unless the exchange lacks commercial substance or the fair value of the asset received or disposed of cannot be determined reliably, in which case the cost is determined as the carrying amount of the asset disposed of.

Brands and contracts with customers (i)

Contracts with customers have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is provided using the straight-line method over the useful life which is estimated at 6 years.

Trademark licences are carried at cost and have an indefinite useful life, as the analyses of all relevant factors at the reporting date do not indicate any foreseeable limit to the identified rights will generate cash inflows. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually and are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Computer software (ii)

Software licences are capitalised based on the cost of purchase and costs incurred in bringing software into a working condition for its intended use. The cost is amortised over the useful life of software, which has been estimated at 5 years.

(iii) Goodwill

Goodwill and any excess of the fair value of assets acquired above the cost of acquisition represent the difference between the cost of acquisition and the acquirer's share in the total fair value of assets and liabilities at the acquisition date.

Goodwill arose on the acquisition of Mlineta and Belje brands from Agrokor by the Company in 2014. The total consideration paid for the acquisition of the flour mill operations was recognised as an addition to non-current assets in the amount of HRK 193,679 thousand. The balance was allocated as follows:

  • HRK 65,000 thousand in respect of the Belje trademark;
  • HRK 55,000 thousand in respect of the Mlineta trademark;
  • HRK 60,379 thousand in respect of goodwill;
  • HRK 10,000 thousand in respect of the key customer contract;
  • HRK 3,300 thousand to equipment.

Goodwill was estimated assuming that the quantities sold will equal the history of the quantities sold obtained from Agrokor and that it will remain constant in the future. Another input into the calculation was the assumed constant spread (as the difference between the flour selling rice and the cost of the direct raw material). The discount rate was determined as the weighted average cost of capital based on the net debt-to-equity ratio of 68:32.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at each reporting date, as already disclosed in note Impairment test of intangible assets. (Note 4. iv)

3.22 Impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

3.23 Inventory

Inventories of raw material and spare parts are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost method. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less all variable selling costs.

The cost of work in progress and finished products comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity).

Merchandise is carried at the lower of cost and the selling price (net of taxes and margins).

Small inventory and tools are written off when put into use.

3.24 Biological assets

The Group recognizes a biological asset or agricultural products such as livestock and crops, when there is control over the property as a result of past events, when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the asset will inflow to the Group and when the fair value or cost of the item can be measured determine reliably.

Basic herd of cows is kept separately by ID numbers for certain categories of cattle. The categories that make up the breeding stock are: cows, heifers and calves.

Supply of livestock valued at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. The present value approximates the fair value of livestock.

Agricultural products harvest are measured at fair value less estimated costs to sell at the point of harvest.

For biological assets carried at cost, depreciation is recorded as an expense in the period and is calculated on a straight line basis over the expected useful life of the assets.

3.25 Trade receivables

Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, if significant, using the effective interest method. Otherwise, they are measured at nominal amounts, less an allowance for impaiment. Impairment is made whenever there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the originally agreed terms. Significant financial difficulties of the probability of bankruptcy proceedings at the debtor, or default or delinquency in payment are considered indications of potential impairment. The amount of impairment loss of an item receivable is measured as the difference between the carrying amount and the recoverable amount of the receivable.

3.26 Cash and cash equivalents.

Cash and cash equivalents consists of balances on accounts with banks and cash in hand. Bank overdrafts are presented within current liabilities in the separate statement of financial position.

3.27 Equity

The share capital consists of ordinary shares. Amounts recognised in equity as a result of issuing new shares or options are presented net of the related transaction costs and profit tax. Any fair value of the consideration received in excess of the nominal value of issued shares is recognised as capital gains.

3.28 Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

3.29 Financial assets

Financial assets are recognised on a trade-date basis where the purchase or sale of a financial asset is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within the time frame established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at fair value, plus transaction costs, except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through the statement of comprehensive income, which are initially measured at fair value.

Financial assets are classified into the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), financial assets available for sale (AFS) and loans and receivables. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.

Financial assets at FVTPL

Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when the financial asset is (i) contingent consideration that may be paid by an acquirer as part of a business combination to which IFRS 3 applies, (ii) held for trading, or (iii) it is designated as at FVTPL.

A financial asset is classified as held for trading if:

  • · it has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling it in the near term; or
  • · on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Company manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
  • · it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

3.29 Financial assets (Continued)

A financial asset other than a financial asset held for trading or contingent consideration that may be paid by an acquirer as part of a business combination may be designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:

  • · such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or
  • · the financial asset forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Group's documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or
  • · it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and IAS 39 permits the entire combined contract to be designated as at FVTPL.

Financial assets at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the 'other gains and losses' line item. Fair value is determined in the manner described in note 4.

Available-for-sale financial assets (AFS financial assets)

AFS financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated as AFS or are not classified as (a) loans and receivables, (b) held-to-maturity investments or (c) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

Dividends on AFS equity instruments are recognised in profit or loss when the Group's right to receive the dividends is established

The fair value of AFS monetary financial assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate prevailing at the reporting period. The foreign exchange gains and losses that are recognised in profit or loss are determined based on the amortised cost of the monetary asset. Other foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables (including trade and other receivables, bank balances and cash, and others) are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the effect of discounting is immaterial.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the finated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.

For AFS equity investments, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

3.29 Financial assets (continued)

For all other financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • · significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty;
  • · breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
  • · it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation; or
  • · the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

For certain categories of financial assets, such as trade receivables, assets are assessed for impairment on a collective basis even if they were assessed not to be impaired individually. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Company's past experience in collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period of 60 days, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate.

For financial assets that are caried at cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods.

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss.

When an AFS financial asset is considered to be impaired, cumulative gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss in the period.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.

In respect of AFS equity securities, impairment losses previously recognised in profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of investments revaluation reserve. In respect of AFS debt securities, impairment losses are subsequently reversed through profit or loss if an increase in the fair value of the investment can be objectively related to an event occurring after the recognition of the impairment loss.

Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Company recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.

Classification as debt or equity

For the year ended 31 December 2016

Debt and equity instruments issued by a group entity are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a group entity are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Own equity instruments redeemed by the Group are recognised as a deduction directly in equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Group's own equity instruments.

3.30 Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities 'at FVTPL' or 'other financial liabilities'

Financial liabilities at fair value through the display changes in fair value in the profit and loss

Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is (i) contingent consideration that may be paid by an acquirer as part of a business combination to which IFRS 3 applies, (ii) held for trading, or (ii) it is designated as at FVTPL.

A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:

  • it has been incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing it in the near term;
  • on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Company manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
  • it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

A financial liability other than a financial liability held for trading or contingent consideration that may be paid by an acquirer as part of a business combination may be designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:

  • · such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise;
  • · the financial liability forms part of a group of financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Company's documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or
  • · it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and IAS 39 permits the entire combined contract to be designated as at FVTPL.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement. recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability and is included in the 'other gains and losses' line item. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 28.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities (including borrowings and trade and other payables) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

3.30 Financial liabilities (continued)

The effective interest method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Financial guarantee contracts

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument.

Financial guarantee contracts issued by a group entity are initially measured at their fair values and, if not designated as at FVTPL, are subsequently measured at the higher of:

  • · the amount of the obligation under the contract, as determined in accordance with IAS 37; and
  • · the amount initially recognised less, where appropriate, cumulative amortisation recognised in accordance with the revenue recognition policies.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Company derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group's obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.

3.31 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) arising as a result of a past event and it is probable (more likely than not) that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the obligation . Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. When the amount of the impairment is significant amount of provision is the present value of the expenditures expected to settle the obligation, determined using the estimated risk free interest rate as the discounting is used, every year the effect of discounting is recorded as a financial expense and the carrying amount of the provision increases in each year to reflect the passage of time.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

4 CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In applying the Group's accounting policies, which are described in the Note 3, the directors of the Group are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Critical judgements in applying accounting policies

The following are the critical judgements, apart from those involving estimations, that the directors have made in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements.

(i) Revenue recognition

In making their judgement, the Management applied the detailed criteria for the recognition of revenue from the sale of goods set out in IAS 18 Revenue and, in particular, whether the Group had transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods.

(ii) Consequences of certain legal actions

The Company's Group entitles are involved in legal actions and proceedings, which have arisen from the regular course of the operations. The management uses estimates of the legal actions and recognises provisions for contingent liabilities of the Group arising from those actions on a consistent basis.

Recoverable amount of trade and other receivables (iii)

The recoverable amount of trade and other receivables is determined as the present value of future cash flows, discounted using the market in effect at the measurement date. Short-term receivables without the interest rate are measured at the originally invoiced amounts if the discounting effect is not material.

(iv) Impairment test of intangible assets

The Group tests the goodwill, brands and licences for impairment on an annual basis. For the purposes of impairment test, they are allocated to cash-generating units of the Mill Operations segment, and their carrying amounts at the reporting date were as follows:

Milling Dairy 31 December
2016
Trademarks 120.000 120.000
Goodwill 60.379 - 60,379
Customer list 5.696 5,696
Software and other intangible assets 401 733 1.010
188,142 733 187,085

The recoverable amount of the cash-generating units was determined as the value in use obtained from cash flow projections based on five-year financial plans approved by the Management Board.

Goodwill is tested for impairment by assessing the value in use of the cash-generated units to which the goodwill is allocated. In determining the value in use, the Management Board is required to estimate the expected future cash inflows from a cash-generating unit as well as the discount rate to be used in calculating the present value. If the actual cash flow received is below the expected, this may indicate material losses as a result of impairment.

At 31 December 2016 the carrying amount of goodwill was HRK 60 million (31 December 2015: HRK 60 million).

For the year ended 31 December 2016

4 CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(iv) Impairment test of intangible assets (continued)

Goodwill impairment test

The Group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment, in accordance with its accounting policy, The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units are determined based on value-in-use. These calculations require the use of assumptions (Note 15).

If the discount and long-term growth rate were different than the management's estimates as at 31 December 2016 and 2015, the impact on recognition of impairment of goodwill would be as follows:

Discount rate - Future cash flows of cash-generating units are discounted using the discount rate of 10.13 percent for goodwill and 12.13 percent for brands. Constant expected future cash flows were used as calculation inputs.

Intangible assets other than software and other intangible assets arose on the acquisition of the Mill Operations segment. At 31 December 2016 the Company performed impairment tests for goodwill and trademarks.

The tests did not show any indication of impairment of the intangible assets.

(v) Useful life of property, plant and equipment

As described in Note 3.18 above, the Group reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period.

(vi) Fair value of assets

Assets carried at fair value are remeasured based on periodic valuations of external independent valuation experts.

Financial risk management objectives

The Group finances a part of its operations using foreign-currency denominated borrowings. Therefore, the Group is subject to an impact of changes in the applicable foreign exchange and interest rates. The Group is also exposed to credit risk which arises from the sales it has made with deferred payment.

The Group seeks to reduce the effects of these risks to the lowest possible level.

30.1 Financial risks (continued)

Market risk management

The largest market on which the Group provides its services is the Republic of Croatia. The Group's Management Board determines the prices of the services based on market prices. The purchase function is centralised, which in itself provides the Group an image of a respectable customer with a good negotiating position from the start.

Currency risk

The Group is exposed to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates. The exchange rate risk arises from the portion of the Group's loan debt tied to the movements in the exchange rate of the Croatian kuna ogainst the euro. Significant fluctuations in the HRK/EUR exchange rate could affect the value of the Group's fireinncurrency denominated assets and liabilities. In addition, according to the 2016 data, the Group generates around 23 percent of its total revenue on foreign markets and in euros, which is another aspect of the Group's performance being subject to the fluctuations in the EUR/HRK exchange rate.

At the reporting date, the Group did not use any financial instruments to hedge its position from unfavourable exchange rate movements.

The table below analyses the carrying amounts of the Group's foreign-currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the reporting date.

Foreign currency sensitivity analysis

The Group is mainly exposed to the fluctuations in the exchange rate of the Croatian kuna against the euro (EUR) because this is the currency in which the majority of intermediary food product purchase and sale transactions on international markets is carried out.

The following table details the Group's sensitivity to a 5-percent increase and decrease of the Croatian kuna against the relevant currency (? - jednina jer je samo euro). The 5-percent sensitivity rate represent the management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in the foreign exchange rate (opet samo jednina)?. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the year end for the 10-percent change in the relevant foreign exchange rate. A positive number below indicates an increase in profit or equity where the Croatian kuna strengthens 5 percent against the relevant currency. For a 5 % weakening of the Croatian kuna against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit or equity, and the balances below would be negative.

30 RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

30.1 Financial risks (continued)

Credit risk

The Group is exposed to the risk of default of a portion of its trade receivables. The Group transacts generally with retail chains with which it has a long history of cooperation. As a result, the Group's credit risk is lower and present mainly to the extent it reflects potential issues in the retail industry. The Group seeks to minimise its credit risk exposure by monitoring the financial position of its customers, applying strict collection measures and obtaining various instruments of collateral such as promissory notes and bills of exchange.

In addition to credit risk arising from trade debtors, the Group is also exposed to credit risk from dealing with cooperative farmers in the production of grains and oleaginous plants, as it extends credit to them for required seeds and intermediary products during the sowing season. The cooperative farmers generally settle the liabilities for the intermediary products and seeds by delivering oleaginous plants and crops if the parties agree on the product price during the harvest season. It is possible and it happens that, in practice, some cooperative farmers fail to produce crops and oleaginous plans in quantities sufficient to settle the commodity loans for a variety of reasons. The Group protects itself from such situations by obtaining additional collateral, such as personal guarantees of the agricultural farm owners, their family members, establishing pledge on the agricultural equipment and facilities, fiduciary title to harvested crops or grains on stock, co-ownership of the crops, and similar. The instruments to secure the settlement are negotiated separately with each individual farmer, depending on the relationship history.

Where an individual farmer cannot repay a commodity loan due to unfavourable weather conditions and/or market prices of crops/oleaginous plants, the Group enters into a deferred payment with such farmers at a certain interest rate, a settlement arrangement involving the next season's harvest in another crop not affected by poor weather conditions (e.g. rain during wheat harvest may reduce the wheat quality, but at the same time improve the quality of crops harvested in the autumn). It is common for farmers to sow several different types of crops/plants to reduce the risk of poor weather conditions adversely affecting a particular crop/plant, but also as a safeguard against unfavourable movements in the prices of a particular crop, i.e. to disperse the risk.

In the course of its operations, the Group enters into factoring contracts and/or discounted bills with factoring houses. The ultimate risk arising from the recoverability of the debt from the principal debtor is borne by the Group. At the reporting date, the contingent liabilities of the Group arising from factoring deals with recourse amount to HRK 106,1 million.

Until the report date bills of exchange were recovered in the amount of HRK 21.1 million.

The Group can not provide any guarantees that the monitoring of the financial condition of customers, measurement of the control of the collection or collateral will be effective and that the eventual possible credit risk will not affect on operational and financial condition of the Group as neither that the balance of commodity loans with problems in repayment will increase.

Interest rate risk

Given the level of debt owed to financial institutions, which mostly bears interest at a variable rate based on benchmark interest rates (EURIBOR, LIBOR, ZIBOR and interest rates on the treasury bills of the Croatian Ministry of Finance), the Group is exposed to the risk of growth in interest rates. At the reporting date, the Group did not use any financial instruments to hedge its position from unfavourable interest rate movements.

As the Group borrows both at fixed and variable rates, it is exposed to the interest rate risk. A vast majority of the loans raised by the Group bear interest at variable rates.

The sensitivity analysis below is based on the risk of changes in interest rates at the statement of financial position. For variable-rate debt, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the date of the statement of financial position was outstanding for the interest rates would change by 0.5 percent, and all other variables remained constant, there would be a change in the interest expense of the Group in the amount of HRK 1,867 thousand at 31 December 2016 (2015: HRK 2,004 thousand). The increased level of long-term debt at variable rates increases the impact of a potential change in the interest rates on the Group's profit.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

30 RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

30.1 Financial risks (continued)

Liquidity risk

There is a risk that the Group may not be able to meet all of its obligations as they fall due, which may be caused by inadequate level of recoverability of amounts owed by customers, inappropriately maturities of the debt, or the inability to obtain loans from financial institutions. In order to reduce the liquidity risk, the Group applies on-going measures to recover its receivables and monitor the liquidity of its customers, seeks to optimise the maturity structure of the debt and obtain lines of credit available to it at financial institutions to be able to continue servicing its debt in unforeseen circumstances.

However, the Group cannot provide any assurance that its liquidity management will be efficient and that the potential liquidity risk will not have a significant impact on its performance and financial condition.

The following tables detail the remaining contractual maturities of the Group's non-derivative financial liabilities. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities by reference to the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The tables include both principal and interest cash outflows. The undiscounted amount of interest payments has been derived from interest rate curves at the end of the reporting period. The contractual maturity is defined as the earliest date on which the Group can be required to make the payment.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

30 RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

30.2 Industry risk

One of the food industry risks arises from the fact that eating and diet habits of consumers as well as consumer awareness of the impact of the diet on their health have significantly evolved over the past two decades. Such trends pose an imperative for the producers in terms of seeking to expand the existing line of products and further improve the quality of the current products.

Flour production

Flour production could be adversely affected by extraordinary events such as fire, explosions, failure of production equipment, prolonged or unplanned maintenance, construction of roads or closing of main transport routes, flooding, storms or other extreme weather conditions. Although the Group has arranged an insurance coverage for its facilities, the insurance coverage is inherently limited by caps on insured sums and may not be sufficient to cover all the costs. In addition, the Group may be exposed to costs not covered by insurance.

Dairy product production

In purchasing raw milk for the purposes of dairy production, Zdenka - mliječni proizvodi relies to a large extent on a number of cooperative farmers, which exposes it to the input material not being of sufficient quality to produce premium-quality products or the risk that milk is not delivered in time or in sufficient quantity. The input quality risk is sought to be minimised using laboratories to perform microbiological tests of raw milk. In case of a market disturbance due to the lack of raw material or its increasing prices, the Group is capable to redirect the milk produced by Zdenačka Farma for Zdenka in a relatively short term and hence partly mitigate the risk. The lack of milk on the domestic market may also be compensated for by importing milk. However, because of the fierce competitive environment, Zdenka cannot protect itself from a potential increase in the milk market prices or provide assurance that any increase in the milk price will be successfully compensated for by higher prices of the end products.

In addition to raw milk, Zdenka also purchases inputs for processed cheese from several producers in the EU that meet high quality standards. The risk of the lack of input or cancellation of the contract by a supplier is currently not significant because the current level of offer exceeds the demand on the part of manufacturers, and Zdenka itself is able to launch its own production should the market experience a significant disturbance.

The risk of product spoilage is pronounced because dairy products fall within the category of products highly susceptible to deterioration. Zdenka seeks to minimise the risk by applying strict controls over the input, processing it in high-tech plants and maintaining high hygiene standards in its plants.

Market risk is a significant risk for Zdenka, as it arises mostly from purchases of cheap cheese from the EU. Therefore, in order to hedge its own margins, Zdenka focuses on the production and distribution of branded products which are also a component of Zdenka's value. Maintaining the image and values arising from the brand is key for a successful performance of Zdenka. Negative publicity, any legal measures or other factors could significantly impair the value of the brand and result in lower demand on the part of customers, as well as affect the current and future operations and financial position of Zdenka.

Livestock operations

In the milk production segment (Zdenačka farma and Žitar) and fattening pigs (Žitar), livestock morbidity and mortality are the prevaling risks. In order to prevent diseases and mortality, veterinary units have been established on the farms that carry out a continuous care of the livestock health condition. To be able to produce high-quality milk, optimum feeding standards and hygiene in milking operations and storage of raw milk are being observed. Mortality insurance has been arranged for all livestock.

There is also a risk that meat and milk produced may not meet the high quality standards. However, the risk is significantly reduced by applying high production quality standards, such as ISO and HACCP.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

30 RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

30.2 Industry risk (continued)

Crop operations

Crop production is exposed to unfavourable weather conditions (draught, floods, hail) which may lower the crop yield or impair its quality, or both, and in extreme cases result in completely devastated crops. Unfavourable weather affects the operations of Žitar which is engaged in crop operations, but also on cooperative farmers to whom the Group extends credits by offering seeds and intermediary products, which may ultimately reduce the farmers' ability to settle their commodity loan debt, as described in more detail in Note 31.1. Credit risk

The weather risk is sought to be mitigated by arranging crop insurance, which the Government supports by subsidising 25 percent of the insurance cost.

The Group also applies geographic diversification to mitigate the weather risk.

As in the case of livestock operations, the risk of crop morbidity may have a significant impact on the expected yield (which is sometimes higher than 30 percent). Therefore, according to the common practice, disease prevention activities are undertaken as the most cost-efficient and effective way of maintaining the expected yield levels.

In addition to diseases, damage caused to crops by a growing population of rodents becomes more difficult to manage because of the currently effective regulations (with increasing damage expected in the future).

Market risk

The food product demand is relatively steady in relation to product prices. Factors impacting the demand are of the following nature: demographic (increase of population), economic (increase in the number of tourists and food consumption at hospitality facilities; higher production volumes in the confectionery and baking industries), political (EU membership that enables seamless export to both EU Member States, but also a higher competition on domestic markets on the part of producers coming from other Member States).

Input commodity and product delivery risks

Wheat, being the key flour production influence on the flour production and prices, both in terms of wheat production and price levels. A key domestic source of the input is represented by a broad base of farmers with whom the Group cooperates by making deliveries of seeds and other intermediate products required for sowing and accepting settlement using mostly offsetting arrangements involving produced wheat/crops at a pre-defined purchase price.

The input commodity purchase risk is mitigated, as the Group has established a sales division that is present on international commodity markets and is currently able to purchase, at an time, sufficient quantities of wheat at the current market price. Croatia's accession to the European Union has lifted all administrative barriers to input commodity purchases from the territory of the Union.

The product delivery risk arises from a potential discontinued production as a result of the milling plant or cancellation of existing contract with the flour transporter.

The Group seeks to mitigate the production downtime risk by hiring staff resident in the vicinity of the mill plants who possess adequate skills to eliminate fault within a reasonable time. As the expansion of the milling operations is expected to bring a higher level of finished product orders, the warehousing capacities are being expanded to accommodate sufficient stock required to make timely deliveries.

The Group seeks to mitigate the product delivery risk arising from the potential cancellation of the contract with the flour transporter by relying on a broad base of transporters without being concentrated to either transporter by the scope of the services used.

In the dairy product segment, the risk of raw material for the production of hot cheese is reasonable in the sense that there are enough bidders on the market and, in the case of a supplier's inability to supply, obtain raw material from another supplier in a relatively short time. Also, Zdenka has its own plant for the production of raw cheese for melted cheese and, if necessary, can produce the required amount of raw material itself.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

30 RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

30.2 Industry risk (continued)

Competition risk

The Group sells its products and goods mainly on the domestic market. As a result of Croatia's accession to the European Union, the administrative burden to entering the markets of other Member States has become smaller, which also applies to competitors entering the Croatian market.

The flour market is being increasingly concentrated, i.e. the total number of flour producers is decreasing (by integration or liquidation of small mills), with the aim to leverage from the economies of scale in order to reduce the unit production cost and strengthen the competitive position on the market. To this end, the Group acquired in 2014 the milling operations of Belje d.d., Darda, and PIK Vinkovci d.d. from the Agrokor Group. Following the full EU membership of Croatia, the Group is no longer exposed to domestic competitors only, which is why the need to improve the Group's competitiveness has been gaining on importance.

The Group estimates that the potential entry of new competic market of hot cheeses after the accession of the Republic of Croatia to the EU membership does not represent a significant risk to the business results, given the consumer habits and the longstanding presence of Zdenka on the domestic market, where it is competitive both at cost and quality.

30.3 Risks arising from the ordinary course of business

Key supplier and key customer concentration risk

Pursuant to the Business Cooperation Agreement concluded with Konzum d.d. on 2 May 2014, the shares of the Group's line of flour products in the Konzum retail and wholesale networks has been defined according to the Group's market share. Consequently, the Group expects to have a largest future exposure to Konzum as the largest single counterparty, which also bears the risk of potential changes in the commercial relationship with the counterparty after the expiry of the Agreement.

The Group's major suppliers are those supplying the raw material and seeds for sowing. The Group seeks to cooperate with as many suppliers as possible to mitigate the risk of discontinued cooperation with a key supplier. Despite this, the Group cannot provide any assurance that a potential termination of cooperation with a key supplier will not have a significant impact on the Group's performance and financial position.

The risk of change of the owner

The majority shareholder of the Group is Mr Hrvoje Filipović, who holds an ownership interest of 58.11 percent.

As the majority shareholder, Mr Hrvoje Filipović has the controlling influence over the shareholders of the Group, by means of the rights and powers pertaining to him as a Group shareholder.

The majority share enables Mr Filipović to exercise his influence in all decisions made in a General Shareholders' Meeting.

No assurance can be provided that the influence of Mr Filipović, as the majority shareholder, will not have a significant effect on the performance and financial condition of the Group.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

30 RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

30.3 Risks arising from the ordinary course of business (continued)

Acquisition risk

The Group's strategy includes the expansion of operations, both through organic growth and acquisitions. Further implementation of the strategy will depend, among others, on identifying acquisition opportunities and their successful implementation. Future acquisitions may be scrutinised by the Competition Agency to identify any potential market concentration, which means that there is a risk of an acquisition to be found nonpermissible or permissible under certain prerequisites.

The ability of the Group to efficiently integrate and manage the acquiree as well as to address adequately the future growth would depend on a number of factors, and a potential failure could have an adverse effect on the Group's performance and financial position. Major acquisitions as well as acquisitions outside the current markets of the Group are possible in the future. The Group has no experience in acquisitions outside its current markets, which could impact the success of an acquisition as well as the level of acquisition and integration costs. A large acquisition could prove to be much more difficult from the integration point of view as well as require significantly higher funds than any acquisition performed in the past. Acquisitions beyond the Group's current markets could be a challenge also because of cultural and language barriers as well as from the aspect of integrating and managing the operations in territories much more remote from the ones on which the Group presently operates.

The Group cannot provide any assurance that it will be able to address properly all the risks of future acquisitions or integrations. As a result of an acquisition, the Group's evel f debt may increase, both through raising funds to finance the acquisition and through the assumption of the debt of the acquiree, which could considerably limit the level of debt the Group would be able to take on in the future. Any considerable increase in the Group's debt in connection with an acquisition could have a material impact on the Group's performance.

In undertaking any future acquisition and as part of the related acquisition analysis, the Group will have to make assumptions about expected cost savings and potential synergies to be achieved. Such estimates are uncertain and subject to a series of significant operational, economic and competition risks that might have a significant influence, as the actual results could differ from the initial estimates. The Group is faced with a risk of failure to achieve all or a part of savings and synergies envisaged at the beginning of an acquisition.

In addition, in an acquisition process, the Group usually assumes all the liabilities and acquires all assets of the acquiree. Although the Group performs acquisition due diligence and seeks to obtain adequate guarantees and assurance as to the value of assets and liabilities it will acquire, it cannot provide any assurance that it will be able to identify all actual and contingent liabilities in advance of the actual acquisition implementation. Acquisitions resulting in the Group assuming contingent liabilities without receiving adequate assurance or warranties could have a material impact on the performance and financial position of the Group.

Working capital risk

Managing working capital successfully is a key area of the Group's operations. The Group may become exposed to a pressure both by competitors and key suppliers to reduce the settlement period for purchases, while simultaneously being under pressure from customers to extend the payment periods on sales.

The Group has made significant investments in improving its logistics to improve the inventory turnover ratio and the operational efficiency ratio. Although the Group has been managing its working capital successfully, no assurance can be given that this will continue in the Group's performance and financial position may become affected.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

30 RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

30.3 Risks arising from the ordinary course of business (continued)

The input commodity price risk

The operating results are largely influenced by the price of wheat as the key input commodity for the Group's production. Poor weather conditions, diseases and pests, political instability and other external factors may cause the volatility of the wheat prices. Overall economic conditions, unforeseeable demand and problems occurring in the production and distribution, along with potential diseases and pests, as well as weather conditions at the time of have a negative impact on the wheat prices. Regardless of the Group's ability to satisfy the wheat demand on the domestic market, movements in wheat prices on the domestic market are affected by fluctuations in the wheat prices on global commodity exchanges. The Group's past performance is conclusive of the past wheat price fluctuations positively correlating with historic flour price fluctuations. However, a certain period of time is required for the flour price to become aligned with the wheat price fluctuations, as a result of which there is a short time in which the Group's margin becomes negatively impacted where the wheat prices increase. Regardless of the past indications of the correlation between the flour and wheat prices, the Group cannot warrant that a potential future increase in wheat prices will be fully offset with higher flour prices and that the historic margin levels will be preserved.

The Group seeks to mitigate the risk of changes in wheat prices by participating actively on futures markets.

Granolio has been managing the risks and input commodity purchase prices actively, by using various future trading techniques on global commodity markets, and without any pronounced open positions.

In the dairy product segment, raw milk prices may have a decisive impact on Zdenka's business result. In the event of a significant increase in the market prices of raw milk, it is possible to divert the production of the Zdenačke farme d.o.o. (Zdenačka farm currently does not supply Zdenka milk for commercial reasons only because it has a better selling price for milk from another customer) and Zitar d.o.o. on the supply of Zdenka, if it is determined that it is in the interest of the entire Granolio Group.

Dependence on the management and key personnel

The Group relies heavily on its staff as one of its key competitive advantages. This means that the Group should exercise great efforts in an attempt to retain top personnel at all levels in order to preserve its leading position on the market. The Group cannot warrant that it will be able to retain its current management and other leading employees or to attract new top personnel in the future. The current and the inability to attract new key personnel could have a significant impact on the Group's operations.

IT risks

The Group relies on a number of IT systems in support of the efficient management of the distribution capacities, for the purpose of communication with its customers and suppliers, human resource management and performance evaluation and to collect all information for management decision-making purposes. The Group's operations are becoming increasingly dependent on the use of such systems, and any system downtime or failure resulting from malicious codes, hardware or software issues or otherwise could have a significant impact on the Group's operations and financial position.

For the year ended 31 December 2016

30 RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

30.3 Risks arising from the ordinary course of business (continued)

Antitrust and competition law non-compliance risk

II is a part of the overall strategy of the Group to become the leading flour producer on the Croatian market and flour supplier in the region, which may render the Group non-compliant with the market competition rules. The Croatian legislation governing market competition, which is aligned with the EU rules, for bds any form of abse of the dominant position, especially any direct or indirect imposition of purchase or selling prices or nher unfair commercial terms and conditions, limiting production, markets or technological progress to the disadvant of customers, or imposing any unequal conditions for the same type of deals with other enterprises that may bring them in a disadvantaged competitive position, or additional obligations to counterparties as a prerequily for entering contracts with them that are in their nature and according to the customary commercial rot directly related to the subject matter of such contracts.

In addition, the legislation forbids any agreements, decisions, associations or joint actions on the part of enterprises aimed at, or resulting in infringing the competition rules on a given market.

Although the Group is not aware of any infringement of competition rules and has never been a respondent in proceedings initiated before the Competition Agency, it cannot warrant that no such proceedings will never be initiated. Any infringement of the competition rules is subject to significant administrative sanctions. For instance, a fine of up to 10 percent of the total annual revenue generated in the most recent year for which final financial statements are available may be imposed for entering into non-permissible deals or abuse of the dominant position. Therefore, any administrative sanction could have an adverse impact on the financial position and performance of the Group.

To mitigate the risk, the Group intends to arrange additional education for its employees in the area of market competition rules and implement procedures to be followed in concluding contracts and undertaking other actions that may result in a breach of competition rules and make sure that the procedures are consistently followed.

Furthermore, before undertaking any future acquisition, the Group may have to ask from the Competition Agency to assess the eligibility of the intended concentration. The Group cannot warrant that a concentration will be assessed as permissible under conditions precedent, such as the disposal of certain assets or certain other steps that might affect the revenue, profit or cash flows of the Group. The concentration eligibility assessment itself could affect the timing of the acquisition.

Litigation risk

As any business entity, so is also the Group exposed to the risk of becoming a counterparty in legal actions initiated before courts, regulatory or other competent authorities that may arise from its ordinary course of business. These include mainly claims involving the Group's debtors or suppliers. The risk of potential future claims raised by customers on the grounds of losses or injuries caused by the consumption of products cannot be excluded. The Group cannot provide any assurance that the outcome of potential future legal and regulatory proceedings or measures will not have a significant impact on its performance and financial condition.

The risk of obligations or losses not covered by insurance

The level of insurance coverage is common for the industry in which the Group operates. The insurance policies of the Group include mainly those providing coverage for occupational injuries, machinery faults, property damage, as well as crop insurance. Still, not all contingent liabilities and losses can be covered by insurance, and the Group cannot warrant that it will not be exposed to situations in which no insurance coverage will be available or that such situations would not have a material impact on the Group's operations and financial condition.

30 RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

30.4 General risks

Business environment risk

The business environment risk includes political, legal and macroeconomic risks prevailing in the business environment of the Group, which is primarily the Croatian market on which the Group generates almost 77% of its total revenue (2015: 73%), followed by the markets of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Italy, Serbia, Hungary and Slovenia. The Group can not provide any guarantee that the Croatian market where the Group realizes most of its revenues will continue with the successful implementation of political and economic reforms. Delays or failures in carrying them out could have an impact on the Group's business. The state budget savings and tax burden currently being implemented in the Republic of Croatia could result in slowing economic growth or reducing disposable income, which could affect both revenue and profitability of the Group.

The governments in power so far have introduced economic reforms to develop and stabilise free market economy by privatising state-owned companies, attracting foreign direct investments and implemented reforms required in the pre-accession stage. Despite the significant progress towards establishing a full market economy, reaching the level of infrastructure of West European countries will take several more years and additional investments. The Group cannot warrant that Croatia will fully implement the intended reforms or that the political environment will favour their implementation. In addition, the Group cannot warrant that the Government in power will not introduce new regulations, fiscal or monetary policies, including taxation, environmental and public procurement policy, an indemnity policy for nationalised property or a a new foreign exchange policy.

The legal framework of the Republic of Croatia is still evolving, which may give rise to a certain level of legal uncertainty. As a result, the Group may come into a position of not being able to succeed in exercising or protecting some of its rights.

The open issues Croatia has with its neighbors do not affect the political stability of the state but represent legitimate representation of the country's strategic and economic international relations, as do all other developed states. As the Group's business is based on the Republic of Croatia, the danger of the influence of other states in the environment is minimal.

30 RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

30.4 General risks (Continued)

Business environment risk

The Group's operations are subject to the impact of the macroeconomic environment, economic conditions and economic activity developments. In the periods of disadvantaged economic conditions, the Group noublic have problems in expanding its business or meeting its financial obligations. Under such circumstances, the Group's access to financial markets could become more difficult, and its borrowing costs could increase, which would affect the performance and financial position of the Group. if the current economic situation would persist, the Group, its customers and suppliers could face difficulties in accessing capital markets, which could hove an adverse impact on the current revenue and profit levels.

The Group is also under the influence of international trends, as wheat, being the Group's key input commodity, is an exchange traded commodity and hence subject to potential political instability in the major wheat producing countries (China, Russia, the USA). Still, as already mentioned above, the Group is able to meet its core input commodity needs entirely from domestic sources, while seeking to neutralise any fluctuations in the commodity price with an active access to futures markets.

The risk of changes in the legal framework

As a food producer, the Group is exposed to strict regulatory requirements applicable to human foods, product safety, occupational health and safety, security and environmental protection (including those applicable to waste waters, sewage, clean air, noise, waste disposal, environmental cleaning and similar), as well as product ingredients and contents, packaging, designation, advertising and market competition. Food production generates waste, emission of hazardous agents into the atmosphere and waters, which is why the Group has the obligation to obtain various licences and adhere to a variety of regulation. Health, safety and environmental regulations in Europe and other developed countries are becoming increasingly stringent, and their implementation is increasingly gaining on importance. The Group seeks to keep pace and anticipate any such changes, as any non-compliance could result in various sanctions. The Group considers to be currently compliant with all the applicable regulations and rules as well as deadlines set by different regulators. However, it cannot warrant that it will not incur significant costs to eliminate any potential instances of non-compliance or the resulting negative publicity, or to adapt to amended regulations, as well as that the resulting impact on its operations and financial condition would not be significant. For instance, the Group is the current owner or lessee of a number of properties and facilities, including production plants and distribution centres some of which were previously used for other commercial or industrial purposes. Although the Group is currently not aware of any facts that would give rise to additional obligations regarding the environmental status of the properties and facilities, any contamination identified as a result of current or previous operations and the resulting obligation to eliminate it could cause significant costs to the Group. Additional regulations, or interpretations of current regulations, could be introduced in the future, which may affect the Group's business and products. The Group cannot provide any warranty that any costs of complying with any such future initiatives will not have a significant impact on the performance and financial condition of the Group.
