The interim condensed financial statements for the 6 months ended 30 June 2024 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The interim condensed financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements as at 31 December 2023.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023, except adoption of new Standards and Interpretations as of 1 January 2024, noted below.
A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period:
The amendments to existing standards are not relevant to the Company.
In the process of applying the Company's accounting policies, management has made the following judgements that had the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in these financial statements:
The management periodically reviews whether the Company meets all the definition criteria of an investment. In addition, the management assesses the Company's business objective (Note 1), investment strategy, origin of income and fair value valuation techniques. According to the management, the Company met all the definition criteria of an investment entity throughout all the periods presented in these financial statements.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
The significant areas of estimation used in the preparation of these financial statements is discussed below.
Fair values of investments in subsidiaries that are not traded in an active market are determined by using valuation techniques, primarily earnings multiples, discounted cash flows and recent comparable transactions. The valuation techniques used to determine fair values are periodically reviewed and compared against historical results to ensure their reliability.
Details of the inputs and valuation models used to determine Level 3 fair value are provided in Note 4.
1.1
If the conditions provided for in the Company's Articles of Association are met, the Company has an obligation to pay a success fee and a cumulative part of the management fee to the Management Company. Since the Company's estimated return as at 30 June 2024 and 31 December 2023 exceeded the minimum return barrier over the entire Company's period, i.e. a binding past event occurred, the Company calculated a provision for success and accrued management fee.
The Company estimates that the best estimate of the provision for the performance fee and the accrued management fee is the excess of the actual earnings over the minimum return barrier that would have been paid to the Management Company if the Company had sold all its investments at the balance sheet date at the fair value of the investments determined in the balance sheet. This method of calculation is based on the assumption that the fair value of the investment presented in the balance sheet is the best estimate of the possible selling price of the investment at the balance sheet date. If the actual selling price of the investment were 5 % higher, the amount of the provision would increase by EUR 444 thousand, and if the selling price were 5% lower, provision would decrease by EUR 1,860 thousand.
The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
The Company's financial assets at fair value through profit or loss included assets attributed to Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company has no Level 1 or Level 2 instruments.
The table below presents the Company's direct and indirect investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries as at 30 June 2024 and at 31 December 2023:

The Company conducts an independent valuation of its investments in subsidiaries when preparing the annual financial statements. As at 31 December 2023, the valuation was carried out by Deloitte Verslo Konsultacijos UAB using the income approach, except for the valuation of FINtime UAB, the net asset value method was used for the full valuation of the company which was considered the most suitable for the company. In the opinion of the management, the fair value of investments was determined appropriately using the inputs and ratios properly selected and reasonably reflecting the investments. The fair value of investments was determined in compliance with the International Valuation Standards approved by the International Valuation Standards Council. For the income approach, the discounted cash flow method was used. It was based on free cash flow forecasts made by management for the period of 5 years.

The fair value was based on discounted cash flow method, which was selected by the external valuator as the best representation of the company specific development potential, except for FINtime UAB where net assets value method was used. Different method was selected as at the current moment the entity do not expect to generate significant free cash flows. Due to the limited number of comparable companies and transactions, lack of reliability of the market data and limited comparability of peers, the results of the guideline public companies and transaction methods were used as a supplementary analysis and were provided only for illustrative purposes in valuation report.
Cash flow projections made by Company management for the period of 5 years (2024-2028) were used as a basis in the income method. Free cash flows were calculated as operating profit after tax plus depreciation/amortisation of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, plus or minus changes in working capital and minus capital expenditure. The resulting value was adjusted by discount for lack of marketability and the amount of surplus assets/liabilities. As part of the valuation process, valuator had analysed items presented on the balance sheet of each company and had identified assets and liabilities, which can be treated as surplus assets (e.g. net working capital above normalised level, non-operating cash balances, loans to related parties) and debt/debt like items; all of which were adjusted when arriving at equity value of the company.
In the opinion of the management, the fair value was determined appropriately using the inputs and ratios properly selected and reasonably reflecting the investments.

The risk management function within the Company is carried out by the Management Company in respect of financial risks (credit, liquidity, market, and interest rate risks), operational risk and legal risk. The primary objective of the financial risk management function is to establish the risk limits, and then make sure that exposure to risks stays within these limits. The operational and legal risk management functions are intended to ensure proper functioning of the internal policies and procedures necessary to mitigate the operational and legal risks.
The Company's financial liabilities consisted of trade and other payables. The Company has various categories of financial assets, however, the major items of its financial assets were financial assets at fair value through profit loss consisting of the investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and cash and cash equivalents.
The Company is being managed in a way that its portfolio companies are operating independently from each other. This helps to diversify the operational risk and to create conditions for selling any controlled business without exposing the Company to any risks.
The Company's business objective is to achieve medium to long-term return on investments in carefully selected unlisted private companies operating in information technology sector.
The main risks arising from the financial instruments are market risk (including foreign exchange risk, cash flow and fair value interest rate risk and price risk), liquidity risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. The risks are described below.
Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, outstanding balances of trade and other receivables, and outstanding balances of loans granted.
With respect to trade and other receivables neither past due nor impaired, there were no indications as at the reporting date that the debtors will fail to fulfil their liabilities in due time, since the Company constantly reviews the balances of receivables. The Company has no significant transactions in a country other than the countries of domicile of the subsidiaries and their investments. All receivables of the Company are from subsidiaries, and their settlement terms are set by the Company itself.
With respect to credit risk arising from other financial assets of the Company (consisting of cash and cash equivalents), the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counterparty. The maximum exposure to credit risk was equal to the carrying amount of these instruments:
| Assets with no credit rating assigned | At 30 June 2024 | At 31 December 2023 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Granted loans with interest | 123 | 3,823 | - | 3,249 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 878 | 749 | ||
| Total current assets | 4,701 | 3,998 |
The Company accepts the services from the banks and the financial institutions which (or the controlling financial institutions of which) have been assigned a high credit rating by an independent rating agency. As at 30 June 2024 the Company's cash balances were held in the financial institutions which have not been assigned individual credit ratings, but the controlling financial institutions of which have been assigned "Prime-1" rating by Moody's agency.
The Company is exposed to the risk of changes in market interest rates primarily due to assets with variable interest rates. As at 30 June 2024 the Company had loans in total EUR 3,545 thousand. Loan interest rates are variable, except the loan amounting EUR 700 thaousand with the fixed interest rate. The interest rate for long-term loans is base interest rate and 3-month EURIBOR, short-term loans are base interest rate and 6-month EURIBOR and are calculated on the last day of each month.
As at 31 December 2023 the Company had loans in total EUR 3,145 thousand. Loan interest rates are variable, except the the loan amounting EUR 300 thaousand with the fixed interest rate. The interest rate for long-term loans is base interest rate and 3 month EURIBOR, short-term loans are base interest rate and 6-month EURIBOR and are calculated on the last day of each month.
The Company's investments are susceptible to price risk arising from uncertainties about future values of the investments that are not traded in an active market. To manage the price risk, the Investment committee reviews the performance of the portfolio companies at least on a quarterly basis, and keep regular contact with the management of the portfolio companies for business development and day-to-day operation matters. As at 30 June 2024, the fair value of the Company's investments exposed to price risk was EUR 44,444 thousand (31 December 2023: EUR 44,890 thousand).
1.1
Through investment diversification and risk management the Company seeks to reduce the risk and prevent potential reduction in the value of investments and create value by selecting investment objects and relying on the experience of other market participants.
The Company manages the Company's portfolio of investment instruments in compliance with the following main principles of diversification:
Upon the establishment of the Company, its investment portfolio may not meet the set diversification requirements for 4 years after the date on which the Supervisory Authority issued a permit to approve its incorporation documents and to choose the Depository. In the event that, upon the expiration of the set term, the investment requirements shall be violated due to the reasons beyond the control of the Management Company, such non-conformity must be eliminated as soon as possible but no later than within 1 year from the date on which the Management Company became aware of this situation
If the diversification requirements are not complied with for reasons beyond the control of the management company, the requirement must be reinstated within 1 year. In exceptional cases, the time limit may be extended, provided that the supervisory authority is duly informed. In July 2021, the supervisory authority (the Bank of Lithuania) extended this deadline until 2024. As of the day these reports are issued, the diversification requirements have not been reinstated. In May 2024 the Company has informed the supervisory authority that the diversification requirements have not been reinstated and provided explanations regarding this matter.
The Company's policy is to maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents or have available funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet its commitments at a given date in accordance with the strategic plans.
Liquidity risk of the Company is managed by the Management company. The liquidity risk management is divided into long-term and short-term risk management.
The aim of the short-term liquidity risk management is to meet the day-to-day needs for funds. Each subsidiary is independently planning its internal cash flows. Short-term liquidity of the Company is managed through monthly monitoring of the liquidity status at the Company.
Long-term liquidity risk is managed by analysing the cash flow projections by taking into account the potential sources of financing. Before approving a new investment project, the Company evaluates the possibilities to attract the required funding. Based on monthly reports, the Company makes projections of monetary income and expenses over the next one year, thereby ensuring an effective planning of the Company's funding.
The Company's liquidity ratio (total current assets / total current liabilities) as at 30 June 2024 and 31 December 2023 was approximately 15.3 and 4.6, respectively.
As at 30 June 2024 the current assets of the Company were higher than current liabilities by EUR 2,623 thousand. The management of the Company forecasted the cash flows of the Company for 2024 and indicates that the Company will have sufficient funds to cover liabilities, which fall due in 2024.
