2 Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The interim condensed financial statements for the 6 months ended 30 June 2020 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 Group's annual financial statements as at 31 December 2019.

Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019, except adoption of new Standards and Interpretations as of 1 January 2020, noted below.

  • Amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combination: Definition of a business (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020);

The amendments to existing standards are not relevant to the Group.

3 Investment properties

During 1st Half Year of 2020 and 2019 the Group has not acquired investment properties, except investment properties taken for the public needs. Investment properties are stated at fair value and are valued by accredited valuer UAB korporacija Matininkai using sales comparison method. The valuation was performed in December 2019. There were no significant changes in the market since the end of 2019 that could have an effect on the value of those investment properties, therefore the updated valuation was not performed as at 30 June 2020.

On 1 May 2014 changes to the Agricultural Land Acquisition temporary law entered into force, providing restrictions of the purchase of agricultural land (including restriction of purchase of shares in the legal entity owning agricultural land). These restrictions mean that the Group cannot purchase additional agricultural land and/or acquire shares in entities owning agricultural land. As a result of restrictions, the land sale market in Lithuania became less liquid.

In January 2017 the Group received letters from Ministry of Transport and Communications informing about possibility to take for the purpose of Rail Baltica, 6 land plots owned by the Group. The Group had no right to sell, pledge, restructure or in any other way restrict rights to those land plots. The Group was informed that 11.23 ha of above mentioned land plots would be taken for the public needs. The ownership of these land plots was transferred to the State in first half-year of 2019. The Ministry engaged a qualified valuer who valued the land plots at amount of EUR 62 thousand, which was recognised on the Group's statement of financial position as at 31 December 2018. The Group had no objections to the results of valuation of four out of six land plots, whereas for the remaining land plots (with the carrying value of EUR 18 thousand) the Group is litigated valuation and finally agreed on valuation of EUR 23 thousand in 1st Half Year of 2019.

In 2nd Quarter 2019 the Group received letters from Ministry of Transport and Communications informing about possibility to take for the purpose of construction and reconstruction of local roads, related to project of Rail Baltica, 8 land plots owned by the Group (77.2 ha, with the carrying amount of EUR 403 thousand). The Group had no right to sell, pledge, restructure or in any other way restrict rights to those land plots. The Group was informed that 6.56 ha of above mentioned land plots would be taken for the public needs. The value of the plots in the statement of financial position was EUR 36 thousand as at 31 December 2019. The ownership of these land plots was transferred to the State in first half-year of 2020, except one land plot, which transfer was registered in July 2020. The State paid for these land plots EUR 38 thousand and, therefore, in 1st Half Year of 2020 was recognised additionally gain of fair value adjustment of EUR 2 thousand.

There were no other restrictions on the realisation of investment properties or the remittance of income and proceeds of disposals during 1st Half Year of 2020 and 2019. No contractual obligations to purchase investment properties existed at the end of the period.

The Group did not request or received any financial support due to the COVID-19 virus pandemic, as this was not relevant taking into account Group's operations. The Group's customers are farmers who lease land from the Group and whose activities were effected only a little by the COVID-19 virus pandemic. Their ability to pay the lease to the Group is more determined by the meteorological conditions that affects the harvest. No discounts were granted to farmers renting the land from the Group due to the effects of the COVID-19 virus.
