According to the Management Agreement in force starting with 1 April 2022, the first reporting period of the mandate is from 1 January 2022 until 31 December 2022 and the second reporting period is from 1 January 2023 until 31 December 2023.
In accordance with the Fund's IPS, there are two performance objectives that the AIFM is aiming to achieve. The NAV objective refers to an Adjusted NAV per share1 in the last day of the reporting period higher than the reported NAV per share as at the end of the previous reporting period. The discount objective implies the discount between the closing price of the Fund's shares on BVB – REGS and the latest reported NAV per share to be equal to, or lower than 15%, in at least 2/3 of the trading days in the reporting period.

In the period 1 January 2023 - 31 March 2023, the discount to NAV was above 15% in all trading days.
Source: Fund Manager calculations
Note: The discount is calculated based on the latest published NAV available for the day of the calculation
The AIFM will continue its efforts to minimise the discount to NAV, through close collaboration with underlying portfolio assets to improve governance, efficiency, and profitability, as well as ongoing implementation of the Discount Control Mechanism, transparent communication, and disclosure, supported by proactive investor relations.
1 The adjusted NAV for a given date is calculated as the sum of: (i) the reported NAV as at the end of the Reporting Period; (ii) any distributions to shareholders, being either dividend or non-dividend ones (i.e. in the last case following reductions of the par value of the shares and distribution to the shareholders), implemented after the end of the previous Reporting Period, and (iii) any distribution fee and any transaction/ distribution costs relating to either dividend or non-dividend distributions including buy-backs of shares/ GDRs/ depositary interests executed through daily acquisitions or public tenders after the end of the previous Reporting Period. The adjusted NAV per share is equal to the adjusted NAV divided by the total number of the Fund's paid shares, less FP ordinary shares bought back and less equivalent in FP ordinary shares of FP GDRs acquired and not yet converted into FP ordinary shares, on the last day of the Reporting Period. For more details, please refer to the IPS available on the Fund's webpage.
The Adjusted NAV per share as at 31 March 2023 was 0.62% higher than the 31 December 2022 NAV per share of RON 2.5701.

The Sole Director is committed to its continued efforts towards protecting shareholders' value and implementing the necessary measures in accordance with the IPS to address the volatile environment which marked the last years.
In January the AIFM started the implementation of the 14th buyback programme, including a Tender offer for 225 million shares of the Fund (in the form of ordinary shares and GDRs) that was completed on 13 March 2023. Following the above, the total distributions to the Fund's shareholders during the first quarter of 2023 amount to RON 539.5 million. Also, the Sole Director proposed, and shareholders approved during the 21 April 2023 GSM, a dividend distribution of RON 0.05 per share with payment date on 6 June 2023. For more details, please see Subsequent events section.
In the first three months of the year, in our efforts to increase the visibility and the profile of the Fund, as well as the local capital market, and Romania, to a broader international institutional investor base, the Fund's management team organised three road-shows in London and met with 19 investment firms interested in finding out more details about Fondul Proprietatea and its equity story, and in receiving updates on the Fund, its corporate actions, and the main portfolio holdings, as well as on the Romanian macroeconomic environment.
During the first quarter, we also participated to three investor conferences in London, meeting with 20 representatives of international institutional investors.
On 28 February, we organised the 2022 Annual Results Conference Call with institutional investors and financial analysts, where 30 investment professionals participated.
Furthermore, during the first quarter, we organised 13 conference calls and 10 in-person meetings with institutional investors and financial analysts covering Fondul Proprietatea, interested in the latest developments regarding the Fund's corporate actions, and its portfolio companies.
Communication between the Fund Manager and investors remains our top priority as we aim to ensure that investors are informed about the latest developments and obtain their feedback as we continue to focus on maximising shareholder value.
The European Union has set in motion a legislative programme to make environmental, social and governance concerns a central plank of regulation in the financial services industry.
The investments underlying Fondul Proprietatea do not take into account the EU criteria for environmentally sustainable economic activities, including enabling or transitional activities, within the meaning of the Taxonomy Regulation.
On 28 November 2022, the European Parliament adopted Directive (EU) 2022/2464 regarding corporate sustainability reporting (CSRD), published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 16 December 2022. The requirements will start to apply between 2024 and 2028, and the Member States have to transpose the directive into local legislation so that it applies from 1 January 2024. The Fund will analyse the impact of the CSRD requirements on its activity and will monitor the implementation of the directive requirements within the national legislation during the following reporting periods.
According to the IMF1 , the global economy experiences a gradual recovery from the powerful blows of the COVID 19 pandemic and of Russia's unprovoked war on Ukraine, with supply-chain disruptions unwinding and inflation moving back toward its targets as a result of the significant tightening of monetary policy by most central banks.
Global growth is projected at 2.8% in 2023, then slightly rise to 3.0% in 2024. For Romania, according to April 2023 World Economic Outlook published by IMF, the real GDP growth for 2022 was 4.8% and this is expected to drop to 2.4% in 2023 and increase to 3.7% in 20241 .
IMF projections from April 20231 forecast global inflation to fall from 8.7% in 2022 to 7.0% in 2023 and 4.9% in 2024. According to Eurostat2 , the EU annual inflation rate was 6.9% in March 2023, down from 8.5% in February. For Romania, according with National Statistics Institute3 the annual inflation rate in March 2023 was 14.5%.
According to the monthly BVB report4 for March 2023, the capital market in Romania increased by 3.8% in the first quarter, taking into account the BET-TR index, but this development took place against the backdrop of decreasing liquidity. Also, at the end of March 2023 the number of investors in the Romanian capital market reached 133,000, a level that represents an all-time high.
On 11 January 2023, the Board of the National Bank of Romania once again raised its key monetary policy rate by 0.25% to 7.0%, the eighth consecutive rate hike in the last 12 months, in line with the trend followed by most central banks across the world.
Whilst the potential for further interest rates increases is high, we expect inflationary pressure to be more subdued through 2023. With the right mix of fiscal and economic policy, Romania once again has strong prospects to become one of the best performing economies in the European Union.

The key performance indicator of the Fund is its Net Asset Value. The Fund is required to publish a monthly net asset value per share in accordance with the local rules issued by the capital market regulator, no later than 15 calendar days after the reporting month end and after the dates when share capital changes are recorded within Trade Register.
All NAV reports are published on the Fund's website together with the share price and discount/ premium information.
Starting with 28 January 2022, the date when the Fund's registration process as an AIF with the FSA was finalised, the Fund started to apply the Romanian AIF Law (Law no. 243/2019) and AIF Regulation (Regulation no. 7/2020).
Listed securities are valued either at closing market prices if listed on regulated markets, or at reference prices if listed on an ATS. Illiquid and unlisted securities are valued using the fair value determined either by reference to published prices on the stock exchange where shares are traded (listed securities) or assessed using valuation techniques in accordance with International Valuation Standards. The holdings in the companies in liquidation, dissolution, bankruptcy, insolvency, judicial reorganisation or which ceased their activity are valued at zero.
The treasury shares acquired through buy-backs are excluded from the number of shares used in the NAV per share computation. Due to the fact that in substance the Fund's GDRs are similar to the ordinary shares to which they correspond, in the computation of the number of shares used for the NAV per share calculation, the equivalent number of shares corresponding to the GDRs bought back and held by the Fund as at the NAV reporting date is also deducted, together with the number of ordinary own shares bought back and held.

Note: Distribution Adjusted NAV per share is calculated as the NAV per share for the respective month plus the cumulated cash distributions per share since the start of FT mandates

The following chart shows information on the monthly published NAVs per share for the period 31 December 2022 to 31 March 2023:

Source: Fund Manager calculations
During the first quarter of 2023, the NAV per share had an increase of 0.5% compared to the end of the previous year, mainly due to the tender offer within the 14th buyback programme that was finalised in March and the slight net increase in the value of listed holdings.
During the quarter, the Fund has also performed an analysis of the unlisted holdings valuation based on the most recent information available (market multiples, updated financial information, business plans, changes in legislation) and concluded that there were no significant changes. As a result, no updates were required to the valuation of the unlisted holdings in the portfolio.
The Fund will continue to closely monitor the evolution of financial markets and that of the specific industries the unlisted holdings operate in, and for each NAV reporting date will assess if an updated valuation is required.
The equity exposure amounted to 97.9% of the Fund's NAV as at 31 March 2023. As at that date, the portfolio was composed of holdings in 31 companies (5 listed and 26 unlisted), a combination of privately held and state-controlled entities.

Net cash and receivables include bank deposits, current bank accounts, as well as other receivables and assets, net of all liabilities, including liabilities to shareholders related to dividend distributions.

On 31 March 2022, the GSM of Hidroelectrica SA approved the initiation of the listing process on BVB following a public offering of the company's shares held by the Fund.
The approval is a positive development as it allows the Fund to explore, together with the deal advisors, a potential realisation of all, or part of its holding in the company.
On 8 September 2022 the Fund informed the market that the Fund and Hidroelectrica SA selected the consortium of investment banks in relation to the IPO, which is composed of reputable international, regional, and local investment banks.
The Fund's shareholders approved the sale of the shares held by FP in Hidroelectrica SA during the 15 November 2022 GSM.
The Fund and Hidroelectrica SA continue to prepare for an IPO during 2023. The Romanian State committed in PNRR to the listing of Hidroelectrica by the end of H1 2023.
On 5 July 2021, the GSM of Salrom approved in principle the listing of the company on the BVB, through a public offering of the company's shares held by the Fund.
On 27 July 2022, the Government approved a Memorandum supporting the listing of Salrom by a public offering of the company's shares held by the Fund, which is a key milestone in the listing process.
The approval is a positive development as it allows the Fund to explore its options with regards to a potential realisation of all or part of its holding in the company.
The Fund continues to engage with the majority shareholder and the company in relation to preparations for a potential IPO in the context of the protracted process for the appointment of the company's directors under the corporate governance rules applicable to state owned entities.
On 20 April 2023, the Fund subscribed to the share capital increase of Hidroelectrica SA with a cash contribution of RON 2,678,640. The registration of the share capital increase with the Romanian Trade Register is currently ongoing.
CN Aeroporturi Bucuresti called a GSM that took place on 25 October 2021 through the convening notice published in the Official Gazette of Romania Part IV no. 3873/20.09.2021, for the approval of a share capital increase with the land inside Baneasa airport, brought as Romanian State's contribution in kind to the company's capital. The initial proposed value for the share capital increase was RON 3,814,809,171. This was the third time the share capital increase process was initiated since 2001, when Baneasa Airport received the land ownership certificates.
On 26 October 2021 (the second calling for the shareholders' meeting) the share capital increase was approved with only the Romanian State voting in favour, as follows:
Fondul Proprietatea expressed its opinion, strongly disputing the fundamentally flawed land valuation report, as the land valuation report carried out in 2021 attributes a very high value to the land, despite a previously approved valuation report from 2017, which had set the value of the same land at RON 269 million.
15

To protect the interest of the Fund and its shareholders, Fondul Proprietatea started court cases for the annulment of the shareholders' resolution, and for the suspension of the entire process until the claim for annulment case is irrevocably closed.
Following the hearing that took place on 13 January 2022, the Bucharest Court of Appeal admitted the request of suspension filed by the Fund and ordered the suspension of the effects of the increase until the claim for the annulment of the GSM is irrevocably settled. The litigation related to the claim for annulment of the aforementioned GSM is ongoing in front of the Romanian courts (Tribunalul Ilfov).
Considering the above, the dilution risk was assessed as not significant and thus no additional adjustments were applied to the valuation of the company for 31 March 2023.
On 9 February 2022, during the CN Administratia Porturilor Maritime GSM, the majority shareholder approved the increase of the share capital from RON 132,906,430 to RON 323,311,340, respectively with the amount of RON 190,404,910, through incorporation of part of reserves. The Fund maintained its stake holding, as new shares issued were distributed proportionally to existing shareholders. As at the date of issuing this report, the Fund held 6,466,226 shares, representing 20% of the company's share capital. However, the Fund decided to challenge in Court the validity of the GSM which approved the share capital increase. The first instance court has rejected the complaint. The Fund has appealed the decision and the Court set the next hearing on 13 September 2023.
The company's management called an EGM on 8 June 2023 to approve a share capital increase of RON 25.2 million, by issuing 2,523,850 new shares at a nominal value of RON 10 per share. If Fondul Proprietatea chooses not to participate to this share capital increase, its stake could be diluted from 20% to 1.5%.
In January 2022, the European Commission approved Romania's plan to grant CE Oltenia a restructuring aid for up to EUR 2.66 billion (RON 13.15 billion). The measure will enable the company to finance its Restructuring Plan with the view to restore its long-term viability. The implementation of the Restructuring Plan will lead to the need to operate capital increases, both in cash as well as with the value of lands that will be used by CE Oltenia to develop the new investments alongside coinvestors (photovoltaic power plants and gas fired power plants).
As approved in the general shareholders meetings of CE Oltenia, the Company will develop 4 solar parks with a total capacity of 455 MW together with OMV Petrom, 4 solar parks with a total capacity of 280 MW and a 475 MW natural gas energy block with Tinmar Energy and an 850 MW combined cycle power plant on natural gas with Alro.
In 2023, CE Oltenia will receive approximately EUR 91 million (RON 449 million) in state aid as part of the Restructuring Plan. The state aid is intended to finance the purchase of greenhouse gas emission certificates in 2023. The company has received grants worth EUR 776 million so far.
Assuming Fondul Proprietatea will not participate in the share capital increases foreseen in the Restructuring Plan, the participation of the Fund in CE Oltenia will be diluted at approximately 5% based on the Fund's current estimates.
The recent change in the legislation brought by GEO 26/2023 allowing land valuation to be carried out at fair value would facilitate the share capital increase with the value of the lands that will be contributed by CE Oltenia in the new investment companies.

As per currently available information from the grid operator, national electricity consumption decreased by 10% y.o.y. in Q1 2023, while national production increased by 4%. Romania continued to be a net power exporter in Q1 2023, as in Q4 2022.
As per OMV Petrom's estimates, national gas consumption significantly decreased by approximately 13% compared to Q1 2022, the lowest level for a first quarter so far in the last two decades, as a result of warm weather and industry not being able to recover from 2022 lows.
On the Romanian centralised markets, the weighted average price of natural gas for transactions with medium and long-term standardised products concluded in Q1 2023, irrespective of delivery period, was RON 253/MWh (Q1 2022: RON 469/MWh). The average price for the quantities delivered during the quarter was RON 381/MWh (Q1 2022: RON 372/MWh). Regarding short-term deliveries, on BRM day-ahead market, the average price in Q1 2023 was RON 270/MWh (Q1 2022: RON 485/MWh).

There were no major updates in the energy market regulatory environment during the quarter ended 31 March 2023. However, for ease of reference, we have included below an overview of main regulatory requirements, also presented in the 2022 Annual report of the Fund.
GEO no. 108/2022 related to the decarbonisation of the energy market, which entered into force on 1 July 2022, foresees gradual shutdown of the lignite and coal power plants by 2030, while allowing for temporary closure postponement in case of an energy crisis.
GEO no. 108/2022 was further modified on 16 December 2022 through Law no. 334/2022. According to Law no. 334/2022 the total installed capacity of lignite and coal-fired electricity that will be phased out of service by 2032 at the latest is 4,920 MW, of which 3,780 MW by the end of 2025.
The energy capacities based on coal and lignite remaining available on 31 December 2021 are gradually taken out of operation and can be transferred to the technical reserve at the disposal of the national energy dispatcher, as follows:

In the context of high energy price, the electricity sector was subject to several forms of windfall taxation throughout 2022. Initially, between 1 November 2021 and 31 March 2022, Law no. 259/2021 introduced for electricity producers the taxation at an 80% rate of the additional revenues resulting from the difference between the average monthly selling price and RON 450 per MWh.
Subsequently, GEO no. 27/2022 extended the timeline of the windfall tax until 31 March 2023 while keeping the 80% tax rate and the RON 450/MWh reference rate unchanged.
Starting 1 September 2022, GEO no. 119/2022 extended the timeline for the windfall tax until 31 August 2023, increased the windfall taxation rate on electricity producers to 100% (from 80% previously) and broadened the scope of the windfall tax to electricity and gas traders on the wholesale market and to import/ export and intra-EU electricity transactions.
Law no. 357/2022 for the approval of GEO no. 119/2022, which entered into force on 16 December 2022, further extended the application of the windfall taxation until 31 March 2025.
For electricity producers, the monthly additional revenues subject to the windfall taxation are calculated based on the average realised price above RON 450/ MWh multiplied by the volume of electricity sold. In the computation of the average price, certain expenses are subtracted from revenues (e.g. costs with electricity purchased in the market, costs with carbon allowances, grid access costs, financing costs). Starting with 1 January 2023, in the computation of the average price the costs with electricity purchased for imbalances is limited to only 5% of the value of the production sold.
Cogeneration plants supplying public heating services and production capacities commissioned after 1 April 2022 are exempted from the windfall taxation.
Starting with 1 September 2022 electricity and natural gas producing entities, aggregated electricity producing entities, electricity and natural gas traders, electricity and natural gas suppliers and independent electricity aggregators have the obligation to pay a contribution to the Fund for Energy Transition for trading activities. Based on the formula for calculating the contribution to the Fund for Energy Transition, the profit resulting from trading activities is capped at 2%.
Throughout 2022, the Government implemented several support schemes and price caps at the level of electricity and gas end-consumers, key legislation pieces being represented by GEO no. 118/2021 related to the compensation scheme for consumption of electricity and natural gas for the cold season 2021-2022 (i.e. between 1 November 2021 and 31 March 2022), Law no. 259/2021 for the approval of GEO no. 118/2021 and GEO no. 3/2022 which further amended GEO no. 118/2021.
Starting with 1 April 2022, the price caps at the level of electricity and gas end-consumers were implemented through GEO no. 27/2022 which was subsequently amended by several normative acts, most notably by GEO no. 119/2022 which extended the duration of the price caps at the level of electricity and gas end-consumers from 31 March 2023 until 31 August 2023 and Law no. 357/2022 for the approval of GEO no. 119/2022 which among other adjustments further extended the duration of price-capping measures until 31 March 2025.

Between 1 January 2023 and 31 March 2025 the following price caps apply for the end-consumers:
Source: Law no. 357/2022
Based on the existing legislation, the supply component is capped at RON 73/ MWh for power and RON 12/ MWh for natural gas respectively, with the component 10% higher for suppliers of last resort.
As an exception, based on Law no. 357/2022, in case of electricity producers who are transferring electricity from the production portfolio to the supply portfolio the capped price is either the contractual price in case it is lower than the price caps or the maximum price cap for each category of consumers.
The value resulting as a product between the quantity of electricity billed to final customers, beneficiaries of the support scheme established by the Government, and the positive difference between average purchase price of active electricity recorded by electricity suppliers and the value of the active electricity invoiced to end-consumers by the same electricity suppliers is compensated to suppliers from the state budget.
According to GEO no. 119/2022, the maximum weighted average price of electricity used by ANRE to calculate the amounts compensated from the State Budget and paid to electricity suppliers is RON 1,300 / MWh.
Based on the provisions of GEO no. 27/2022 as subsequently amended natural gas producers have been obliged to sell part of their production at regulated prices.
According to the latest legislative provisions enacted through GEO no. 119/2022 and Law no. 357/2022 in the period 1 September 2022 – 31 March 2025, natural gas producers have the obligation to sell at a price of RON 150/MWh, the volumes of natural gas used for the production of thermal energy in the cogeneration plants and in the thermal power plants for population consumption.
Also, for the period 1 April 2023 – 31 March 2025, natural gas producers have the obligation to sell at a price of RON 150/MWh, the necessary quantities of natural gas resulting from the current domestic production activity to the transport and system operator Transgaz and to the gas distribution operators in order to cover 75% of the gas quantity for technological consumption.
For the household and heating producers' volumes, the producers are exempt from the payment of the windfall tax.
Through GEO no. 153/2022, adopted on 11 November 2022, the Government introduced from 1 January 2023 until 31 March 2025 the centralised electricity acquisition mechanism at the regulated price of RON 450/MWh.
According to GEO no. 153/2022, the electricity producers in scope of the regulation would have to sell based on an annual and monthly centralised acquisition mechanism the available production to the electricity and natural gas market operator OPCOM at the above-mentioned regulated price. In the same time, OPCOM would sell at the same price of RON 450/MWh the electricity purchased through the centralised acquisition mechanism to the supply companies who have end-consumer portfolios and to the electricity transport operator Transelectrica and to the electricity distribution operators for covering their grid losses. The electricity producers from renewable sources benefiting from support schemes such as wind and solar, the cogeneration plants and the production capacities commissioned after 1 April 2022 are exempted from the obligation to sell to OPCOM.
Government issued GEO no. 138/2022 amending GEO no. 119/2022 by temporary introducing the requirement to conclude bilateral contracts, within the limits of available quantities, giving priority to traders/ suppliers appointed by to the Government of the Republic of Moldova at a set price of RON 450/MWh.
According to the provisions of GEO no. 119/2022, as subsequently amended by Law no. 357/2022, for licensed economic operators, providers of electricity and natural gas transport and distribution services, the additional costs of purchasing electricity and natural gas, made between 1 January 2022 and 31 August 2025, in order to cover own technological consumption and, respectively, technological consumption, compared to the costs included in the regulated tariffs, are capitalised quarterly. The capitalised costs are recognised in the regulated tariffs in compliance with the cost recognition criteria provided in the ANRE methodologies.
Capitalised costs shall be amortised over a period of 5 years from the date of capitalisation and are remunerated with 50% of the RRR approved by the ANRE, applicable during the amortisation period of the respective costs and recognised as a distinct component. The resulting assets are recognised in the accounting records and in the annual financial statements of the distribution operators, according to the instructions developed by the Ministry of Finance.
On 19 October 2022, ANRE's methodology for capitalising the cost difference related to the own technological consumption for the period 2022-2023 was published in the Official Gazette of Romania.
According to ANRE Order no. 1/ 20 January 2021 and Order no. 3/ 20 January 2021, starting with 1 February 2021, the regulator allows the following, until the 4th regulatory period ends (2019 - 2023), for electricity and gas distribution companies:

All information is presented based on the transaction date
Calculated as the total number of shares acquired within the programme (own shares and shares corresponding to GDRs) divided by the number of shares corresponding to the issued share capital at the end of the programme (for completed programmes)/at the reporting date (for ongoing programmes).
Weighted average price is calculated based on transaction price, excluding the related transaction costs, for the entire buy-back programme
The 13th buyback programme has been finalised on 30 December 2022. During the 21 April 2023 EGM, the Fund's Sole Director proposed, and the shareholders approved the cancellation of the 549,019,085 treasury shares repurchased through the 13th buy-back programme. The Fund will undertake all the required legal and regulatory steps for the cancelation of the shares.
The 14th buy-back programme that is being implemented during 2023 was approved by shareholders during the 15 November 2022 GSM, for a total number of 3,500 million shares in the form of ordinary shares and GDRs, at a price that cannot be lower than RON 0.2 per share, or higher than RON 3.0 per share.
The Fund selected Auerbach Grayson in consortium with Swiss Capital to provide brokerage services for the programme. The Fund is allowed to buy back daily up to 25% of the average daily volume of the Fund's traded shares (in the form of ordinary shares or GDRs) on the regulated market on which the purchase is carried out, calculated in accordance with the applicable law. The duration of the 14th buy-back programme is 1 January 2023 – 31 December 2023.
On 17 January 2023, the Fund submitted to the FSA an application for the endorsement of a tender offer to accelerate the 14th buy-back programme.
The daily execution of buy-backs for both shares on BVB and GDRs on LSE was suspended starting with 4 January 2023.
The Fund selected Swiss Capital SA together with Auerbach Grayson as agents and Swiss Capital SA as intermediary in relation to the purchase of shares, and The Bank of New York Mellon as tender agent in relation to the GDR purchases.
On 2 February 2023, the FSA approved the Fund's application for the public tender offer. The purchase price was RON 2.19 per share and the USD equivalent of RON 109.50 per GDR, and the subscription period was from 10 February to 13 March 2023.
On 13 March 2023, the Fund Manager announced the results of the tender offer: total subscriptions of 1,237,263,281 shares representing 549.895% of the offer (730,673,281 were subscribed in the form of shares and 506,590,000 shares in the form of GDRs, namely 10,131,800 GDRs).
Under the tender offer, the Fund repurchased 225,000,000 shares (132,875,150 in the form of shares and 92,124,850 shares in the form of GDRs, namely 1,842,497 GDRs) at a purchase price of RON 2.19 per share and the USD equivalent of RON 109.50 per GDR, computed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the tender offer documentation. The shares' Trade Date was 14 March 2023, and the settlement/ payment date was 16 March 2023 for both shares and GDRs.
The daily execution of the 14th buy-back programme resumed on 14 March 2023 on BVB and on 15 March 2023 on LSE.
The Fund recognises the treasury shares (repurchases of own shares and GDRs) at trade date as a deduction from shareholders' equity (in an equity reserve account). Treasury shares are recorded at acquisition cost, including brokerage fees, distribution fees and other transaction costs directly related to their acquisition.
Upon completion of all legal and regulatory requirements, the treasury shares are cancelled and netted off against the share capital and / or other reserves. The details on the accounting treatment to be applied for the registration and cancellation of treasury shares can be found in the FSA Norm no. 39/2015, article 75.
A negative equity element arises upon cancelation of the shares acquired in a buy-back programme, where the acquisition price is higher than the nominal value, but this does not generate an additional shareholder's equity decrease. At the cancellation date, only a reallocation between the equity accounts is booked, without any impact on profit or loss and without generating additional shareholders' equity decrease (the decrease is recorded at share acquisition date).
Article 75 from Norm no. 39/2015 mentions that the negative balance arising on the cancellation of equity instruments may be covered from the retained earnings and other equity elements, in accordance with the resolution of the GSM.
As at 31 March 2023, the Fund's equity elements that could be used to cover the negative reserve are sufficient and include retained earnings, reserves and share capital.
There were no changes in the negative reserves balance during the quarter ended 31 March 2023.
The total negative reserves recorded by the Fund as at 31 March 2023 of RON 230,576,693 are related to the cancellation of the shares acquired within the 12th buy-back programme. During the 21 April 2023 Annual GSM, the shareholders approved the coverage of these negative reserves using the other reserves set up for this purpose as per the decision taken in the 2022 Annual GSM.
The table below shows additional details on the estimated negative reserve that will arise upon the cancelation of the treasury shares in balance as at 31 March 2023:

During the 21 April 2023 Annual GSM, the Fund's Sole Director proposed, and shareholders approved the cancellation of the 549,019,085 treasury shares repurchased within the 13th buy-back programme and also the allocation of RON 908,845,064 from 2022 accounting profit to other reserves in order to be available for covering the related negative reserve.
The related negative reserve in amount of RON 908,845,064 (please see table above), will be recorded only after all legal and regulatory steps related to the cancellation are completed (e.g. FSA endorsement, the registration to the Trade Registry). The coverage of this negative reserve will be subject to shareholders approval during the annual shareholders' meeting subsequent to the completion of all cancellation steps.

The liquid assets of the Fund during Q1 2023 included term deposits and current accounts. The liquid assets decreased by RON 564.8 million at 31 March 2023 compared to the end of 2022,

mainly as a result of the amounts paid for the acquisition of treasury shares within the 14th buyback programme (RON 536.7 million).
The net decrease in equity investments of RON 584.7 million during Q1 2023 was mainly related to the reclassification of Enel holdings as non-current assets held for sale.
Capital expenditure comprises the value of the licenses, the implementation costs and the updates of the accounting and reporting software, net of the accumulated amortisation. During Q1 2023 the Fund did not incur any capital expenditure cost.

Generally, the operating income mainly comprises the gross dividend income, the changes in fair value of financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss, interest income and the net realised gains/ losses from transactions with financial instruments. The changes in fair value of the equity investments of the Fund are recognised in profit or loss.
The operating income is influenced by the performance of the portfolio companies and their decisions on dividend distributions, by the changes in the share price of listed companies as well as by money market performance.
Interest income arose from short term deposits held with banks.
The net unrealised gain from equity investments at fair value through profit or loss in Q1 2023 was generated by the changes in fair value of the listing holdings in the Fund's portfolio, mainly Alro SA. The Fund has also performed an assessment of the unlisted holdings valuation based on the most recent information available and concluded that there were no significant changes. As a result, no updates were made to the valuation of the unlisted holdings in the Fund's portfolio during Q1 2023.

Net realised loss from non-current assets held for sale in Q1 2022 is related to the disposal of 2,275,000,000 shares in OMV Petrom SA through an ABB offering finalised in January 2022.

Fondul Proprietatea SA (referred to as "Fondul Proprietatea" or "the Fund") was incorporated as a joint stock company, undertaking for collective investment, in the form of a closed end investment company, based on Law no. 247/2005 on the reform in the field of property and justice and other adjacent measures, as subsequently amended ("Law 247/2005") and registered in Bucharest on 28 December 2005. The address of the Fund's registered office is 76 - 80, Buzesti Street, 7th Floor, District 1, Bucharest.
Starting 1 April 2016, Fondul Proprietatea is an alternative investment fund as defined by the Directive 2011/61/EU ("Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive") and by the Romanian legislation. On 28 January 2022, the Financial Supervisory Authority authorized Fondul Proprietatea as a closed-end Alternative Investment Fund intended to retail investors, with BRD Groupe Société Générale as depositary.
The Fund undertakes its activities in accordance with Law 24/2017 on issuers of financial instruments and market operations, Law 74/2015 regarding Alternative Investment Fund Managers, Law 247/2005, Law 297/2004 regarding the capital market, as subsequently amended, Law 243/2019 regulating the alternative investment funds and amending and supplementing certain normative acts and Companies Law 31/1990 republished as subsequently amended and it is an entity authorised, regulated and supervised by the FSA, as an issuer. In accordance with its Constitutive Act, the main activity of the Fund is the management and administration of its portfolio.
The Fund was initially established to allow the payment in shares equivalent of the compensation due in respect of abusive expropriations undertaken by the Romanian State during the communist period, when properties were not returned in kind. Beginning with 15 March 2013, the compensation process was suspended and starting January 2015, the Romanian State decided to use a different compensation scheme that no longer involves the payment in Fondul Proprietatea shares equivalent.
Starting with 1 April 2016 the Fund is managed by Franklin Templeton International Services S.à r.l. ("FTIS") as its Sole Director and Alternative Investment Fund Manager ("AIFM") under the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive and local implementation regulations. The FTIS mandate is for a period of two years and the current mandate was approved during 29 September 2021 shareholders' meeting for the period 1 April 2022 – 31 March 2024. The related contractual terms along with the execution of the Management Agreement were approved by the Fund's shareholders during 15 December 2021 shareholders' meeting and subsequently amended during 15 November 2022 shareholders' meeting.
Starting with 1 December 2020, the portfolio management and the administrative activities previously delegated to Franklin Templeton Investment Management Limited United Kingdom, Bucharest Branch are performed by FTIS through its Bucharest Branch.
Since 25 January 2011, Fondul Proprietatea has been a listed company on the spot regulated market managed by the Bucharest Stock Exchange in Tier I Shares of the Equity Sector of the market, under ISIN number ROFPTAACNOR5 with the market symbol "FP".
Since 29 April 2015, the Fund's Global Depositary Receipts ("GDR") have been listed on the London Stock Exchange – Specialist Fund Market, under ISIN number US34460G1067, with the market symbol "FP.". The Bank of New York Mellon has been appointed by the Fund to act as depositary bank in relation to the GDR facility. The GDR facility is limited to one-third of the Fund's subscribed share capital under the Romanian securities regulations, each GDR representing 50 shares, and the currency of the GDRs is the US dollar.
These condensed interim financial statements for the three-month period ended 31 March 2023 are not audited.
(all amounts are in RON unless otherwise stated)
These condensed interim financial statements for the three-month period ended 31 March 2023 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim financial reporting and applying the FSA Norm 39/2015. The condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022, prepared in accordance with IFRS. These condensed interim financial statements are available starting with 12 May 2023, on the Fund's official webpage, www.fondulproprietatea.ro and at the Fund's registered office.
The Fund is an investment entity and does not consolidate its subsidiaries as it applies IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27 (Investment Entities). In consequence, the Fund does not prepare consolidated financial statements, the separate financial statements being the Fund's only financial statements.
The Fund has reassessed the criteria for being an investment entity for the quarter ended 31 March 2023 and continues to meet them. In determining whether the Fund meets the criteria from the definition of an investment entity, the management considered the investments portfolio structure and the Fund's investment objective. Aspects considered in making this judgement were the fact that the Fund has more than one investment, more investors neither of which are related parties of the Fund and the ownership interests from its portfolio are in the form of equity. The Fund's investment objective is also a typical one for an investment entity, respectively the maximization of returns to shareholders and the increase of the net asset value per share via investments in Romanian equities and equity-linked securities. The Fund's management analysis considered also other relevant factors, including the fact that almost all Fund's investments are accounted for using the fair value model.
The Fund's Sole Director has at the authorisation date of these condensed interim financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the Fund has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, it continues to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. According to the Fund's Constitutive Act, the duration of Fondul Proprietatea is until 31 December 2031 and it may be extended by the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, with additional periods of 5 years.
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on a fair value basis for the main part of the Fund's assets (equity investments, treasury bills and government bonds, non-current assets held for sale, respectively), and on the historical cost or amortised cost basis for the rest of the items included in the financial statements.
These condensed interim financial statements are prepared and presented in Romanian Lei (RON), which is the Fund's functional and presentation currency. All financial information presented in RON has been rounded to the nearest unit.
Transactions in foreign currency are translated into the functional currency of the Fund at the exchange rate valid at the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency at the reporting date are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate valid at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency that are measured at fair value are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate valid at the date of the transaction and are not subsequently remeasured.
(all amounts are in RON unless otherwise stated)
The exchange rates of the main foreign currencies, published by the National Bank of Romania at 31 March 2023 were as follows: 4.9491 RON/EUR, 4.5463 RON/USD and 5.6256 RON/GBP (31 March 2022: 4.9466 RON/EUR, 4.4508 RON/USD and 5.8374 RON/GBP).
The preparation of these condensed interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
Information and critical judgements in applying accounting policies with significant areas of estimation uncertainty that have the most significant impact on the amounts recognised in these condensed interim financial statements are included in the following notes:
On 24 February 2022, Russia engaged in military actions on Ukraine territory. Fondul does not have any direct exposure to Russia or Ukraine. The Fund Manager is closely monitoring developments that may impact financial markets including sanctions, actions by governments and developments in Ukraine itself. The Fund Manager will further assess the impact on the portfolio companies operations and valuation and take any potential actions needed, as facts and circumstances are subject to change and may be specific to investment strategies and jurisdictions. At the authorization date of these condensed interim financial statements, the Fund Manager is not able to reliably estimate the impact as events are unfolding day-by-day.
During the three-month period ended 31 March 2023, the Fund's Sole Director performed a periodic analysis of the multiples values of publicly traded peer companies and of the portfolio companies' financial information.
The Fund's Sole Director will continue to closely monitor the evolution of the economic environment and the effects of the economic measures applied on a national and international level.
The significant accounting policies applied in these condensed interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Fund's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 and have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these condensed interim financial statements.
(all amounts are in RON unless otherwise stated)

The Fund classifies the fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurement, the levels of the fair value hierarchy being defined as follows:
For the financial investments classified as Level 1, the Fund had adequate information available with respect to active markets, with sufficient trading volume, for obtaining accurate prices.
The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is classified is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. For this purpose, the significance of an input is assessed against the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Fair value estimates obtained from models are adjusted for any other factors, such as liquidity risk or model uncertainties, to the extent that the Fund believes that a third-party market participant would consider these factors in pricing a transaction.
If a fair value measurement uses observable inputs that require significant adjustments based on unobservable inputs, that financial instrument is classified on Level 3. Assessing the significance of an input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires significant judgment, considering factors specific to the asset.
The Fund considers observable data to be market data that is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.

The Fund has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. This framework includes a valuation department and a valuation committee, both independent of portfolio management, which have overall responsibility for fair value measurements.
The Fund's AIFM believes that the fair values of the equity investments presented in these condensed interim financial statements represent the best estimates based on available information and under the current conditions.
The valuations are based on prevailing market, economic and other conditions at the valuation date and correspond with a period of significant volatility in global financial markets and widespread macroeconomic uncertainty. To the extent possible, these conditions were reflected in the valuation. However, the factors driving these conditions can change over relatively short periods of time. The impact of any subsequent changes in these conditions on the global economy and financial markets generally, and on the Fund's portfolio holdings specifically, could impact the estimated fair values in the future, either positively or negatively.
The achievement of the forecasts included in the valuation reports critically depends on the assumptions used, on the specific developments of the portfolio companies' business, on government legislation and, in case of electricity sector, on the decisions regarding the regulated tariffs for electricity distribution as well as on the continuing restructuring process of the power sector. As a result, the current valuation may not have identified, or reliably quantified the impact of all such uncertainties and implications.
The valuation reports were prepared as at 31 October 2022 (for 31 March 2022: 31 October 2021, except the valuation report for the holding in Hidroelectrica SA which was prepared as at 31 December 2021), based on financial information available for the companies under valuation at the respective dates.
The Fund's management has analysed the period between the date of the valuation reports and the date when these condensed interim financial statements were authorised for issue and there was no information known or available to the Fund's management which may have significant impact on the fair values of the equity investments as at the reporting date, as they are presented in these condensed interim financial statements.
Considering the economic uncertainties, the risks and the strong volatility existing in the capital markets, the Fund's Sole Director closely monitors the evolution of the economic environment and the effects of the economic measures on the Fund's portfolio companies.
The Fund's Sole Director will perform a periodic analysis of multiples values of publicly traded peer companies and of the available portfolio companies' financial information and will adjust the value of unlisted holdings accordingly, if the case.
The economic uncertainties are expected to continue in the foreseeable future and consequently, there is a possibility that the assets of the Fund are not recovered at their carrying amounts in the ordinary course of business. A corresponding impact on the Fund's profitability cannot be estimated reliably as of the date of these condensed interim financial statements.

The table below presents the movement in Level 3 equity investments during the three-month periods ended 31 March 2023 and 31 March 2022:
| 3 months ended 31 | 3 months ended 31 |

| (588,800,000) | - |
| 12,988,322,010 | 12,487,192,781 |
As at 31 March 2023, the fair value for 90% of the Level 3 equity investments (31 December 2022: for 90% of the Level 3 equity investments) was determined by applying the market comparison technique using comparable trading multiples for EBITDA, while the fair value for almost 10% of the Level 3 equity investments (31 December 2022: for almost 10% of the Level 3 equity investments) was determined by applying the income approach using the discounted cash flow method. There was no significant changes in the valuation techniques used for the valuation of the holdings as at 31 March 2023 compared with those used as at 31 December 2022.
The valuation for the Level 3 equity investments as at 31 March 2023 and 31 December 2022 was prepared as follows:
For Level 3, the equity investments valuations were performed using valuation techniques that maximise the use of relevant observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs, which ensures that the underlying data is accurate, and that appropriate inputs were used in the valuation.
Significant unobservable inputs are the following:
EBITDA multiple: represents the most relevant multiple used when pricing investments and it is calculated using information from comparable public companies (similar geographic location, industry size, target markets and other factors that valuers consider to be reasonable). The traded multiples for comparable companies are determined by dividing the enterprise value of a company by its EBITDA and further discounted for considerations such as the lack of marketability and other differences between the comparable peer group and specific company.
Revenue multiple: is a tool used to appraise businesses based on market comparison to similar public companies. Revenue based business value estimation may be preferred to earnings multiple valuation whenever there is uncertainty regarding some of a company's expenses. The most common tendency is to value a firm based on its sales whenever this number is the most direct indication of a company's earning capacity.
Discount for lack of marketability: represents the discount applied to the comparable market multiples to reflect the liquidity differences between a portfolio company relative to its comparable peer group.
(all amounts are in RON unless otherwise stated)
Valuers estimate the discount for lack of marketability based on their professional judgement after considering market liquidity conditions and company-specific factors.
Discount for lack of control: represents the discount applied to reflect the absence of the power of control considered under the discounted cash flow method, in order to derive the value of a minority shareholding in the equity of subject companies.
Weighted average cost of capital: represents the calculation of a company's cost of capital in nominal terms (including inflation), based on the Capital Asset Pricing Model. All capital sources (shares, bonds and any other long-term debts) are included in a weighted average cost of capital calculation.
Price/Earnings multiple ("P/E"): Price/Earnings ratio is a market prospect ratio that calculates the market value of an investment relative to its earnings by comparing the market price per share by the earnings per share. It shows what the market is willing to pay for an investment based on its current earnings. Investors often use this ratio to evaluate what an investment's fair market value should be by predicting future earnings per share.
Price/Book value multiple: often expressed simply as price-to-book, this multiple measures a company's market price in relation to its book value (net assets). It reflects how many times the book value per share investors are ready to pay for a share. The Price/Book value multiple varies dramatically between industries. A company that requires more assets (e.g. a manufacturing company with factory space and machinery) will generally post a significantly lower price to book than a company whose earnings come from the provision of a service (e.g. a consulting firm).

The unrealised gain from equity investments at fair value through profit or loss for the three-month period ended 31 March 2023 was mainly generated by the change in fair value for the holding in Alro SA (unrealised gain of RON 9,110,589).
The unrealised gain from equity investments at fair value through profit or loss for the three-month period ended 31 March 2022 was mainly generated by the change in fair value for the holding in Hidroelectrica SA (unrealised gain of RON 883,544,000), as a result of updating its value with the most recent discount for the lack of marketability (DLOM) estimated by KPMG Romania following the shareholders' approval for the listing of the company on the stock exchange.
The unrealised loss from equity investments at fair value through profit or loss for the three-month period ended 31 March 2023 was generated by the negative change in fair value for the holding in Romaero SA (unrealised loss of RON 5,246,764).
The unrealised loss from equity investments at fair value through profit or loss for the three-month period ended 31 March 2022 was generated by the negative change in fair value for the holding in OMV Petrom SA (unrealised loss of RON 48,967,894) and Alro SA (unrealised loss of RON 13,119,249) following the impact on the financial market of the Russia – Ukraine military conflict.
The net gain from other financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss for the three-month period ended 31 March 2022 includes the realised gain from the change in the fair value of the receivable related to the unpaid share capital from the Romanian State which was classified at fair value through profit or loss, in amount of RON 189,182,422. On 1 February 2022, the Romanian State, represented by the Ministry of Finance paid RON 189,182,422 to the Fund, as payment for the unpaid shares owned by the Romanian State in the Fund.
The realised loss of RON 156,975,000 registered in 2022 from the partial disposal of the Fund's participation in OMV Petrom SA, classified as non-current asset held for sale, represents the difference between the total proceeds from the disposal (RON 978,250,000) and the fair value at the reclassification date of the non-current assets held for sale disposed of (RON 1,135,225,000). Please see the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022, prepared in accordance with IFRS, for further details regarding the sale of the Fund's entire holding in this company.

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss for the period by the weighted average number of ordinary paid shares in issue during the period, excluding the average number of ordinary shares purchased by the Fund and held as treasury shares (based on their settlement date). As at 31 March 2023 and 31 March 2022, none of the Fund's issued shares or other instruments had dilutive effect, therefore basic and diluted earnings per share are the same.

As at 31 March 2023 and 31 December 2022 there is no difference between the carrying amount and tax base of assets and liabilities that could result in amounts that are deductible/ taxable when determining taxable profit or tax loss of future periods. In consequence, as at 31 March 2023 and 31 December 2022, the net deferred tax position is nil as the Fund did not recognise any deferred tax asset or deferred tax liability.

As required by the Romanian Companies' Law, a minimum 5% of the profit for the year must be transferred to the legal reserve until the reserve equals at least 20% of the issued share capital. The legal reserve cannot be used for distributions to shareholders. The amounts allocated to other reserves are to be used to cover the losses (negative reserves) recorded from cancellation of shares acquired through the buy-back programmes.
During the GSM held on 20 April 2022, the Fund's shareholders approved the allocation to other reserves of an amount of RON 230,576,693 from the 2021 net accounting profit to be used for covering the negative reserves from the cancellation of treasury shares acquired during 2021 through the twelfth buyback programme. Please see Note 19 Subsequent Events for annual General Shareholders Meeting approvals.
Losses from cancellation of treasury shares comprise the negative reserves related to the losses on the cancellation of treasury shares acquired at an acquisition value higher than the nominal value. These amounts will be covered from retained earnings and other equity elements, in accordance with the resolution of the General Shareholders Meeting.
(all amounts are in RON unless otherwise stated)
Since January 2017, the Fund's share nominal value was constantly lower than its market price, situation which did not change up to the date of these financial statements. All buy-backs performed after this date were made at an acquisition price higher than the nominal value and consequently all cancellations of treasury shares acquired through the buy-back programmes generated negative reserves.
There was no negative reserve recorded during the three-month periods ended 31 March 2023 and 31 March 2022.
The table below summarises the details regarding the fourteenth buy-back programme, respectively the buy-back programme carried during 2023:

At 31 March 2023, the Fund was involved in certain litigations, either as defendant or claimant. After analysing the requirements of IAS 37 "Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets", the Fund considers that there are no litigations which may have significant effects on the Fund's financial position or profitability.
Other contingencies of the Fund included the receivables from World Trade Center Bucuresti SA and the potential payable regarding CN Aeroporturi Bucuresti SA share capital increase, as detailed below.
Title II, Article 4 of Government Emergency Ordinance no. 81/2007 stipulated the transfer of World Trade Center Bucuresti SA receivables from the Authority for State Assets Recovery to the Fund, amounting to USD 68,814,198 (including the original principal and related interest and penalties) on 29 June 2007.
Between 2008 and 2010, the Fund recovered from World Trade Center Bucuresti SA, USD 510,131, EUR 148,701 and RON 8,724,888. Given the uncertainties regarding the recoverability of the amounts due by World Trade Center Bucuresti SA, the above amounts were recognised on receipt basis in the Fund's financial statements. The amounts recovered from the enforcement procedure were accounted for by the Fund as contributions of the Romanian State to the share capital of the Fund, decreasing the receivable related to the unpaid capital.
In August 2013, World Trade Center Bucuresti SA filed a claim against the Fund asking the Fund to pay back all the amounts received through the enforcement procedure during 2010 and 2011 (EUR 148,701, USD 10,131 and RON 8,829,663).
On 7 July 2016, the Bucharest Court admitted the claim filed by World Trade Center Bucuresti SA and obliged Fondul Proprietatea to pay back the amounts recovered from the enforcement procedure (EUR 148,701, USD 10,131 and RON 8,829,663) and the related legal interest calculated for these amounts. During the period from July to August 2016, the Fund performed the payment of these amounts and the related legal interest to World Trade Center Bucuresti SA. The Court decision is irrevocable.
On 18 February 2020, the Court ruled in favour of the Fund in the case started against the Romanian State, represented by Ministry of Public Finance, for recovering the contributions of the Romanian State to the share capital of the Fund. The decision was issued in the first stage and Ministry of Public Finance appealed it. On 18 September 2020, Bucharest Court of Appeal admitted the appeal of Ministry of Public Finance. The Fund filed the second appeal which was rejected by the High Court of Cassation and Justice on 1 April 2021.
The Fund has initiated legal actions against World Trade Center Bucharest SA and the Ministry of Finance for recovering the amounts, which are pending with the Court.
CN Aeroporturi Bucuresti called through the convening notice published in the Official Gazette of Romania Part IV no. 3873/20.09.2021, a General Shareholders Meeting for 25 October 2021, in order to approve a share capital increase with the land located inside the Baneasa airport, brought as Romanian State's contribution in kind to the company's share capital. The proposed value for the share capital increase was initially RON 3,814,809,171. This is the third time when the process to increase the share capital is initiated since 2001, when Baneasa Airport received the land ownership certificates.
During 26 October 2021 (i.e. second call of the shareholders meeting) the share capital increase was approved only with Romanian State votes in favour as follows:
(all amounts are in RON unless otherwise stated)
Fondul Proprietatea already expressed its opinion strongly disputing the fundamentally flawed land valuation report, as the land valuation report carried out in 2021 attributes a very high value to the land, despite a previously approved valuation report from 2017, which had set the value of the same land at RON 269 million.
Fondul Proprietatea commenced court proceedings for the annulment of the shareholders resolutions asking the court to suspend the entire process till the claim for annulment case is irrevocably closed, to protect the interest of the Fund and its shareholders.
Following the hearing that took place on 13 January 2022, the Bucharest Court of Appeal admitted the request of suspension filed by the Fund and ordered the suspension of the effects of the increase until the claim for the annulment of the CN Aeroporturi Bucuresti GSM is irrevocably settled. The litigation related to the claim for annulment of the aforementioned GSM is ongoing in front of the Romanian courts (Tribunalul Ilfov). Considering the above, the dilution risk was assessed as not significant and thus no additional adjustments were applied to the valuation of the company.
The Fund will continue to update its shareholders regarding the share capital increase process. The duration of court cases in Romania is not predictable. However, the Fund will use all legal available means to have a solution for this issue as soon as possible.
