To the Shareholders of AB Invalda INVL
Report on the Audit of the Consolidated and Company's Financial Statements
We have audited the separate financial statements of AB Invalda INVL ("the Company") and the consolidated financial statements of AB Invalda INVL and its subsidiaries ("the Group"). The consolidated and Company's financial statements comprise:
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated and Company's financial statements give a true and fair view of the non-consolidated financial position of the Company and the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2019, and of their non-consolidated and consolidated financial performance and their non-consolidated and consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union.
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated and Company's Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group and 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 other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Law on Audit of Financial Statements of the Republic of Lithuania and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
The consolidated and Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018 were audited by another auditor who expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated and Company's financial statements on 8 April 2019.

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated and Company's financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated and Company's financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Each audit matter and our respective response are described below.
The carrying amount of the Group's and Company's unquoted investments measured at fair value: EUR 36,263 thousand and EUR 36,053 thousand, respectively, as at 31 December 2019 (EUR 23,961 thousand and EUR 22,545 thousand, respectively, as at 31 December 2018).
See Notes 2.8, 2.11 and 2.12 for the relevant accounting policy and Note 13 to the financial statements for financial disclosures.
| Key audit matter | How the matter was addressed in our audit | |
|---|---|---|
| The Group's and Company's investment portfolio comprises a number of unquoted investments carried at fair value. The fair value of the investments is determined by the Company's internal valuation team and external appraisers engaged by the Company, as considered appropriate. A number of valuation techniques are used, including market and income approach. The application of the above-mentioned valuation techniques requires a significant degree of judgement and complex estimates, including, but not limited to, those in respect of discount rates, assumptions on investee future cash flows, terminal growth rate, equity and enterprise value multiples, liquidity and other discounts, as well as determination of comparable listed companies and precedent transactions. |
Our audit procedures in the area, performed with the assistance of our own valuation specialists, included, among others: testing the design and implementation of the selected key internal controls over determining the fair value of unquoted investments, including the controls over the review and validation of valuation model assumptions and outcomes; assessing the appropriateness of the valuation methods and models applied, against the methodologies commonly used in valuations of similar assets as well as against the requirements of the relevant financial reporting standards; assessing the competence, capabilities and objectivity of the external appraisers engaged by the Company; for valuations using the income approach, evaluating the mathematical accuracy and integrity of the discounted cash flow model used, and challenging the key assumptions therein, by reference to our understanding of the investee's current operations and industry, and external market data. The key assumptions included those in respect of: sales, expenses, capital expenditures, and changes in net working capital. |

Due to the above factors, we determined valuation of the investment portfolio to be associated with a significant estimation uncertainty and risk of a material misstatement in respect of the carrying amounts of the investments in the Group's and the Company's statements of financial position, and also in respect of the net change in fair value of financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss in their income statements.
Accordingly, this area required our increased attention in the audit, and as such, we considered it to be our key audit matter.
For the above valuations, we also traced the forecast growth and discount rates, and the exit yield used, to publicly available market data and, where available, performed a retrospective review of budgeting forecasting accuracy;
In the year ended 31 December 2019, the Group's revenue amounted to EUR 11,326 thousand (2018: EUR 7,428 thousand), including revenue from fund management, which also include success fees, in the amount of EUR 10,710 thousand (2018: EUR 6,548 thousand).
See Note 2.19 "Revenue recognition and costs to obtain contract with customers" and Note 5 "Segment information".
| The key audit matter | How the matter was addressed in our audit |
|---|---|
| The Group's primary revenue source relates to fees earned from funds under management. The fees include fund management fees as well as success (performance) fees. |
Our audit procedures included, among others: obtaining understanding of the Group's process for recognition of management revenue, and testing the design and implementation of the selected key internal controls therein, including those over revenue recognition and calculation derived from fund management; critically assessing the Group's revenue recognition policy for compliance with relevant provisions of the financial reporting standards; |

Management fees are calculated by applying the fee rates as set out in respective managed funds' rules to either the net assets value (NAV) of the managed fund or to the amount of the investors' commitment to invest into the fund. Success fees are generally calculated by applying the appropriate fee rate to the increase in the given fund's unit value, as set out in the respective rules of the managed fund.
Success fee revenue is recognised at a point in time. Revenue from management of funds is recognised over time as the services are being provided and the performance obligations satisfied. Significant judgement is required of the management when determining whether performance obligations are satisfied over a period of time or at a point in time.
Significant audit judgement and effort was required due to subjectivity of the main assumptions applied in the revenue recognition process (including the nature and timing of satisfaction of the underlying performance obligations) and the magnitude of the revenue amounts. Accordingly, we have determined this area to be associated with a significant risk of material misstatement and identified it as a key audit matter.
The other information comprises the information included in the consolidated annual management report, including Corporate Governance Statement and Corporate Social Responsibility Report, but does not include the consolidated and Company's financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Management is responsible for the other information.
Our opinion on the consolidated and Company's financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated and Company's 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 and Company's financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

In addition, our responsibility is to consider whether information included in the consolidated annual management report, including Corporate Governance Statement, for the financial year for which the consolidated and Company's financial statements are prepared is consistent with the consolidated and Company's financial statements and whether consolidated annual management report, including Corporate Governance Statement, has been prepared in compliance with applicable legal requirements. Based on the work carried out in the course of audit of the consolidated and Company's financial statements, in our opinion, in all material respects:
We also need to check that the Corporate Social Responsibility Report has been provided. If we identify that Corporate Social Responsibility Report has not been provided, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Management is responsible for the preparation of the consolidated and Company's financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated and Company's financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated and Company's financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group's and 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 Group and the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group's and the Company's financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated and Company's 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 consolidated and Company's financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
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 significant 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 communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated and Company's financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' 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.

Under decision of the general shareholders' meeting we were appointed on 14 October 2019 for the first time to audit the consolidated and Company's financial statements. Our appointment to audit the consolidated and Company's financial statements is 3 years.
We confirm that our audit opinion expressed in the Opinion section of our report is consistent with the audit report presented to the Group and the Company and their Audit Committee.
We confirm that to the best of our knowledge and belief, we have not provided to the Group and the Company any prohibited non-audit services referred to in Article 5(1) of the Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council.
In the course of audit, we have not provided any other services except for audit of consolidated and the Company's financial statements.

As at 31 December 2019 and 2018 the Company held 100% of voting rights of unconsolidated subsidiary UAB MD Partners (all shares of the entity are owned by the Company). Through unconsolidated subsidiary UAB MD Partners the Company/the Group has indirectly invested into the largest Moldovan bank Moldova-Agroindbank (MAIB). 41.09% shares of MAIB was acquired by entity Heim Partners Limited. UAB MD Partners owns 37.5% of Heim Partners Limited shares and has entered into shareholders agreement with other shareholders: the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (37.5% of shares) and subsidiary of fund managed by Ukrainian private equity manager Horizon Capital (25% of shares). All these shareholders have obtained permission of the Moldovan central bank to indirectly acquired shares of MAIB. To finance the acquisition, UAB MD Partners issued convertible bonds. They were acquired by the Company and by INVL Special Opportunities Fund, managed by consolidated subsidiary UAB INVL Asset Management. Investors into INVL Special Opportunities Fund are independent from the Group. After obtaining the permission of the Moldovan central bank, those bonds was converted into shares of MD Partners (one unit of bond converts to one unit of share, nominal value is the same) in April 2020, after which the Company owns 51.37% and 48.63% is owned by INVL Special Opportunities Fund. Therefore, according to the bond terms, the Company effectively owns 51.37% of economic benefits from the investment into UAB MD Partners, 19.26% of economic benefits from the indirectly investments into Heim Partners Limited and 7.91% of economic benefits from the indirectly investment into MAIB.
UAB Informacinio Verslo Paslaugų Įmonė and UAB Mundus have not any significant restriction on the ability of the associates to transfer funds to the Group as at 31 December 2018. UAB Litagra has to receive bank consent to pay dividends as at 31 December 2019 and 2018. Special Closed-Ended Type Real Estate Investment Company INVL Baltic Real Estate (hereinafter INVL Baltic Real Estate) has the right to pay dividends without bank consent only if the ratio of EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) divided by the sum of debt service costs (interest and principal repayments) and dividends would be higher than 1.1.
The principal accounting policies applied in preparing the Group's and the Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019 are as follows:
The financial statements of the Company and the consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union (hereinafter the EU).
These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, investments to unconsolidated subsidiaries and associates measured at fair value through profit or loss. The financial statements are presented in thousands of euro (EUR) and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand except when otherwise indicated. From 1 January 2015 the euro became local currency of the Republic of Lithuania.
The Group has adopted the new and amended IFRS and IFRIC interpretations as of 1 January 2019:
The principal effects of these changes are as follows:
The new standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. All leases result in the lessee obtaining the right to use an asset at the start of the lease and, if lease payments are made over time, also obtaining financing. Accordingly, IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases as is required by IAS 17 and, instead, introduces a single lessee accounting model. Lessees will be required to recognise: (a) assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value; and (b) depreciation of lease assets separately from interest on lease liabilities in the income statement. IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently. The Group and the Company have adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach, under which the cumulative effect of initial application is recognized in retained earnings at 1 January 2019. Accordingly, the comparative information presented for 2018 is not restated – i.e. it is presented, as previously reported, under IAS 17 and related interpretation. Additionally, the disclosure requirements in IFRS 16 have not generally been applied to comparative information. The revised accounting policy for lease is disclosed in Note 2.18 and revised disclosures is presented in Note 26. In Note 3 it is disclosed the adjustments made to the Group's and the Company's financial statements individual line items due to impact of adoption of the standard.
IAS 12 specifies how to account for current and deferred tax, but not how to reflect the effects of uncertainty. The interpretation clarifies how to apply the recognition and measurement requirements in IAS 12 when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. An entity should determine whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain tax treatments based on which approach better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty. An entity should assume that a taxation authority will examine amounts it has a right to examine and have full knowledge of all related information when making those examinations. If an entity concludes it is not probable that the taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment, the effect of uncertainty will be reflected in determining the related taxable profit or loss, tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits or tax rates, by using either the most likely amount or the expected value, depending on which method the entity expects to better predict the resolution of the uncertainty. An entity will reflect the effect of a change in facts and circumstances or of new information that affects the judgments or estimates required by the interpretation as a change in accounting estimate. Examples of changes in facts and circumstances or new information that can result in the reassessment of a judgment or estimate include, but are not limited to, examinations or actions by a taxation authority, changes in rules established by a taxation authority or the expiry of a taxation authority's right to examine or re-examine a tax treatment. The absence of agreement or disagreement by a taxation authority with a tax treatment, in isolation, is unlikely to constitute a change in facts and circumstances or new information that affects the judgments and estimates required by the Interpretation. The interpretation had no impact to the Group's and the Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.
The narrow scope amendments impact four standards. IFRS 3 was clarified that an acquirer should remeasure its previously held interest in a joint operation when it obtains control of the business. Conversely, IFRS 11 now explicitly explains that the investor should not remeasure its previously held interest when it obtains joint control of a joint operation, similarly to the existing requirements when an associate becomes a joint venture and vice versa. The amended IAS 12 explains that an entity recognises all income tax consequences of dividends where it has recognised the transactions or events that generated the related distributable profits, e.g. in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income. It is now clear that this requirement applies in all circumstances as long as payments on financial instruments classified as equity are distributions of profits, and not only in cases when the tax consequences are a result of different tax rates for distributed and undistributed profits. The revised IAS 23 now includes explicit guidance that the borrowings obtained specifically for funding a specified asset are excluded from the pool of general borrowings costs eligible for capitalisation only until the specific asset is substantially complete. The amendments had no impact to the Group's and the Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.
The amendments clarify that reporting entities should apply IFRS 9 to long-term loans, preference shares and similar instruments that form part of a net investment in an equity method investee before they can reduce such carrying value by a share of loss of the investee that exceeds the amount of investor's interest in the investee. The amendments had no impact to the Group's and the Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.
All other amendments adopted as of 1 January 2019 had no impact on the Group's/Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.
Amendments to the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020)
The revised Conceptual Framework includes a new chapter on measurement; guidance on reporting financial performance; improved definitions and guidance - in particular the definition of a liability; and clarifications in important areas, such as the roles of stewardship, prudence and measurement uncertainty in financial reporting. The Group and the Company are expected that the amendments would not impact their financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8: Definition of materiality (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020)
The amendments clarify the definition of material and how it should be applied by including in the definition guidance that until now has featured elsewhere in IFRS. In addition, the explanations accompanying the definition have been improved. Finally, the amendments ensure that the definition of material is consistent across all IFRS Standards. Information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence the decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity. The Group and the Company are expected that the amendments would not impact their financial statements.
The amendments were triggered by replacement of benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR and other inter-bank offered rates ('IBORs'). The amendments provide temporary relief from applying specific hedge accounting requirements to hedging relationships directly affected by the IBOR reform. Cash flow hedge accounting under both IFRS 9 and IAS 39 requires the future hedged cash flows to be 'highly probable'. Where these cash flows depend on an IBOR, the relief provided by the amendments requires an entity to assume that the interest rate on which the hedged cash flows are based does not change as a result of the reform. Both IAS 39 and IFRS 9 require a forward-looking prospective assessment in order to apply hedge accounting. While cash flows under IBOR and IBOR replacement rates are currently expected to be broadly equivalent, which minimises any ineffectiveness, this might no longer be the case as the date of the reform gets closer. Under the amendments, an entity may assume that the interest rate benchmark on which the cash flows of the hedged item, hedging instrument or hedged risk are based, is not altered by IBOR reform. IBOR reform might also cause a hedge to fall outside the 80–125% range required by retrospective test under IAS 39. IAS 39 has therefore been amended to provide an exception to the retrospective effectiveness test such that a hedge is not discontinued during the period of IBOR-related uncertainty solely because the retrospective effectiveness falls outside this range. However, the other requirements for hedge accounting, including the prospective assessment, would still need to be met. In some hedges, the hedged item or hedged risk is a non-contractually specified IBOR risk component. In order for hedge accounting to be applied, both IFRS 9 and IAS 39 require the designated risk component to be separately identifiable and reliably measurable. Under the amendments, the risk component only needs to be separately identifiable at initial hedge designation and not on an ongoing basis. In the context of a macro hedge, where an entity frequently resets a hedging relationship, the relief applies from when a hedged item was initially designated within that hedging relationship. Any hedge ineffectiveness will continue to be recorded in profit or loss under both IAS 39 and IFRS 9. The amendments set out triggers for when the reliefs will end, which include the uncertainty arising from interest rate benchmark reform no longer being present. The amendments require entities to provide additional information to investors about their hedging relationships that are directly affected by these uncertainties, including the nominal amount of hedging instruments to which the reliefs are applied, any significant assumptions or judgements made in applying the reliefs, and qualitative disclosures about how the entity is impacted by IBOR reform and is managing the transition process. The Group and the Company are expected that the amendments would not impact their financial statements, because does not have financial instruments linked to IBOR and have any hedge.
Amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combination: Definition of a business (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020).
The amendments revise definition of a business. A business must have inputs and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The new guidance provides a framework to evaluate when an input and a substantive process are present, including for early stage companies that have not generated outputs. An organised workforce should be present as a condition for classification as a business if are no outputs. The definition of the term 'outputs' is narrowed to focus on goods and services provided to customers, generating investment income and other income, and it excludes returns in the form of lower costs and other economic benefits. It is also no longer necessary to assess whether market participants are capable of replacing missing elements or integrating the acquired activities and assets. An entity can apply a 'concentration test'. The assets acquired would not represent a business if substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset (or a group of similar assets. The Group and the Company are expected that the amendments would not impact their financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 1: Classification of liabilities as current or non-current (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022 once adopted by the EU).
These narrow scope amendments clarify that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current, depending on the rights that exist at the end of the reporting period. Liabilities are non-current if the entity has a substantive right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement for at least twelve months. The guidance no longer requires such a right to be unconditional. Management's expectations whether they will subsequently exercise the right to defer settlement do not affect classification of liabilities. The right to defer only exists if the entity complies with any relevant conditions as of the end of the reporting period. A liability is classified as current if a condition is breached at or before the reporting date even if a waiver of that condition is obtained from the lender after the end of the reporting period. Conversely, a loan is classified as non-current if a loan covenant is breached only after the reporting date. In addition, the amendments include clarifying the classification requirements for debt a company might settle by converting it into equity. 'Settlement' is defined as the extinguishment of a liability with cash, other resources embodying economic benefits or an entity's own equity instruments. There is an exception for convertible instruments that might be converted into equity, but only for those instruments where the conversion option is classified as an equity instrument as a separate component of a compound financial instrument. The Group and the Company are currently assessing the impact of the amendments on their financial statements, but are not expecting that impact would be material.
The following new standards not yet adopted by the EU are not relevant for the Group and the Company:
IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021 once adopted by the EU)
The adoption of the following new standards and amendments are postponed by the EU indefinitely:
The Group and the Company have not yet analysed impact of them to their financial statements.
The Company has multiple unrelated investors and holds multiple investments. Ownership interests in the Company are in the form of equity securities issued by the Company – ordinary registered shares. In the management's opinion, the Company meets the definition of an investment entity as the following conditions exist:
(i) funds are obtained from investors for the purpose of providing them with investment management services;
(ii) it is committed to investors that its business purpose in to invest funds solely for capital appreciation, investment income, or both; and
(iii) it is measured and evaluated the performance of substantially all of its investments on a fair value basis.
The Board of Directors approved exit strategies for the Company's investments, which has not definitely maturity terms. The Company and the Group also invest to the collective investment undertakings, which have limited life or is traded on exchange or is open-ended fund with right to redeem on daily basis.
Each Company's investments are fair valued and such fair value information is provided both to the Company's investors on reporting date and also for internal management reporting purposes.
In addition, management has assessed that the following characteristics further support investment entity categorization: Company holds several investments itself in the investment funds managed by management company owned by the Company (this management company is providing investment-related services and is consolidated), investments in the funds are held by several investors, the investors are not related parties and the investments are held mostly in form of equity.
An investment entity may provide investment-related services, either directly or through a subsidiary, to third parties as well as to its investors, even if those activities are substantial to the entity, subject to the entity continuing to meet the definition of an investment entity. An investment entity may also participate in the following investment-related activities, either directly or through a subsidiary, if these activities are undertaken to maximize the investment return (capital appreciation or investment income) from its investees and do not represent a separate substantial business activity or a separate substantial source of income to the investment entity:
The management has assessed that investment-related services provided to third parties is ancillary to its core investing activities and therefore does not change its business purpose therefore the Company meets the definition of an investment entity.
The Company has two types of subsidiaries. One type of subsidiaries are controlled subsidiary investments (hereinafter unconsolidated subsidiary). They are measured at fair value through profit or loss and not consolidated, in accordance with IFRS 10. The fair value of controlled subsidiary investments is determined on a consistent basis to all other investments measured at fair value through profit or loss, and as described in the Note 2.12 below.
The other type of subsidiaries provide investment-related services (investment advisory services, investment management) to the investors and third parties (hereinafter consolidated subsidiary). They are not themselves investment entities. The Company considers whether providing services to third parties is ancillary to its core investing activities, when assesses whether it qualifies as an investment entity. These subsidiaries that provide services that are related to the entity's investment activities are consolidated.
An associate is an entity, over which the Company has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. Investments that are held as part of the Company's investment portfolio are carried at fair value even though the Company may have significant influence over those companies. This treatment is permitted by IAS 28 'Investments in associates and joint ventures' as exception from applying the equity method.
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries that provide services that are related to the entity's investment activities. The financial statements of the consolidated subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.
Consolidated subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the group has control and that provide services that are related to the entity's investment activities. The Group controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Consolidated subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. All intra-group balances, transactions, income and expenses, unrealised gains and losses and dividends resulting from intra-group transactions that are recognised in assets, are eliminated in full.
Non-controlling interest is the equity in a consolidated subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent and is presented separately in the consolidated income statement and within equity in the consolidated statement of financial position, separately from parent shareholders' equity. The group treats transactions with non-controlling interests as transactions with equity owners of the group. For purchases from non-controlling interests, the difference between any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the consolidated subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.
Total comprehensive income (losses) within a consolidated subsidiary are attributed to the non-controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance.
When the Group ceases to have control of a consolidated subsidiary any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value, with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss or retained earnings, as appropriate.
The financial statements are prepared in euro (EUR), which is local currency of the Republic of Lithuania, and presented in EUR thousand. Euro is also the local currency of the Republic of Latvia. Euro is the Company's functional currency and the Company's and the Group's presentation currency. The exchange rates in relation to other currencies are set daily by the European Central Bank and the Bank of Lithuania.
As these financial statements are presented in euro thousand, individual amounts were rounded. Due to the rounding, totals in the tables may not add up.
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, excluding the costs of day to day servicing, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of the plant and equipment when the cost is incurred, if the recognition criteria are met. Replaced parts are written off. The Group and the Company have elected to present right-ofuse assets as property, plant and equipment. The right-of-use assets comprise leased properties. The accounting policy of rightof-use assets is disclosed in Note 2.18.
The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or change in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives.
| Leased properties (right-of-use assets) | 2-7 years |
|---|---|
| Vehicles | 6 years |
| Other non-current assets | 3–6 years |
The asset residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end to ensure that they are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items in property, plant and equipment.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the income statement within "other income" in the year the asset is derecognised.
Intangible assets are measured initially at cost. Intangible assets are recognised if it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and the cost of asset can be measured reliably. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. The useful lives of intangible assets other than goodwill are assessed to be finite. Intangible assets are amortised using the straight-line method over the best estimate of their useful lives.
Funds' management rights include investment, private debt investments, pension funds and portfolio of clients acquired during asset management entities acquisition. Funds' management rights acquired in a business combination are capitalised at the fair value at the acquisition date and treated as an intangible asset. Following initial recognition, funds' management rights are carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Funds' management rights are amortised during 5 - 10 years.
The costs of acquisition of new software are capitalised and treated as an intangible asset if these costs are not an integral part of the related hardware. Software is amortised during 3-5 years.
Costs incurred in order to restore or maintain the future economic benefits that the Group and the Company expect from the originally assessed standard of performance of existing software systems are recognised as an expense when the restoration or maintenance work is carried out.
The Group applies the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a consolidated subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the recognised amounts of acquiree's identifiable net assets.
When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host contracts by the acquiree.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date through profit or loss.
Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration, which is deemed to be an asset or liability, will be recognised in accordance with IFRS 9 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it should not be remeasured until it is finally settled within equity. In instances where the contingent consideration does not fall within the scope of IFRS 9, it is measured in accordance with the appropriate IFRS.
The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the group's share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest recognised and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the consolidated subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement.
Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of annual impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group's cash generating units, or groups of cash generating units, that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the Group are assigned to those units or groups of units. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated:
represents the lowest level within the Group at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes; and
is not larger than an operating segment determined in accordance with IFRS 8 Operating Segments.
Where goodwill forms part of a cash generating unit (group of cash generating units) and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured based on the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash generating unit retained.
Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries, associates are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Loans granted to unconsolidated subsidiaries are considered as part of investments to subsidiaries. They are measured together with equity part of investments to unconsolidated subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss.
Interest on loans granted at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the income statement within 'other income' based on the effective interest rate.
When the fair value of investments into unconsolidated subsidiaries together with loans granted to unconsolidated subsidiaries is determined, the value is split into legal components, i.e. between debt and equity instruments. The amortised cost of loans granted is attributed to debt instruments. The remaining value is attributed to equity instruments of the unconsolidated subsidiary.
Investments in consolidated subsidiaries are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment in the consolidated subsidiary is carried in the statement of financial position at cost plus post acquisition changes in the Company's share of net assets of the consolidated subsidiary. Goodwill relating to a consolidated subsidiary is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is neither amortised nor individually tested for impairment. The statement of comprehensive income reflects the share of the results of operations of the consolidated subsidiary. Where there has been a change recognised in the other comprehensive income of the consolidated subsidiary, the Company recognises its share of any changes and discloses this, when applicable, in the other comprehensive income. Company's share in the changes in the net assets of the consolidated subsidiary that are not recognised in profit or loss or other comprehensive income (OCI) of the consolidated subsidiary, are recognised in equity. Unrealised gains and losses (unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of asset transferred) resulting from transactions between the Company and the consolidated subsidiary are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the consolidated subsidiary.
The reporting dates of the consolidated subsidiary and the Company are identical and the consolidated subsidiary's accounting policies conform to those used by the Company for like transactions and events in similar circumstances. After application of the equity method, the Company determines whether it is necessary to recognise an additional impairment loss of the Company's investment in its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in consolidated subsidiary is impaired. If this is the case the Company calculates the amount of impairment as being the difference between the recoverable amount of the consolidated subsidiary and its carrying value and recognises the amount in the statement of comprehensive income. When the Company's share of losses in a consolidated subsidiary equals or exceeds its interest in the consolidated subsidiary, including any other unsecured receivables, the Company does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the consolidated subsidiary.
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as assets held for sale when their carrying amount is to be recovered principally through a sale transaction and a sale is considered highly probable. They are stated at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell if their carrying amount is to be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use.
In the consolidated income statement of the reporting period, and of the comparable period of the previous year, income and expenses from discontinued operations are reported separately from income and expenses from continuing activities as a single amount as profit or loss after tax from discontinued operations in the income statement, even when the Group retains a noncontrolling interest in the consolidated subsidiary after the sale, e.g. consolidated subsidiary becomes an associate.
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets once classified as held for sale are not depreciated or amortised.
When preparing the consolidated statement of income, all inter-company transactions between discontinued and continuing operations that the Group intends to conduct after the discontinuance, are presented in continuing operation without elimination, i.e. they are presented as if they were conducted with third parties. In this case the elimination entry is recorded in discontinued operations. All inter-company transactions between discontinued and continuing operations that the Group does not intend to conduct after the discontinuance, are eliminated from continuing operation.
The Group and the Company assess at each reporting date whether there is an indication that a non-financial asset (other than deferred taxes) may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group and the Company make an estimate of the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's or cash generating unit's fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pretax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs to sell, an appropriate valuation model is used. Where possible, these calculations may be corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded consolidated subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators.
Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.
For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group and the Company make an estimate of recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in relation to goodwill are not reversed for subsequent increases in its recoverable amount.
The following criteria are also applied in assessing impairment of specific assets:
Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.
Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit (or group of cash generating units), to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit (or group of cashgenerating units) is less than the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit (group of cash-generating units) to which goodwill has been allocated, an impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods. The Group performs its annual impairment test of goodwill as at 31 December.
Financial assets within the scope of IFRS 9 are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (either through other comprehensive income or through profit or loss) or financial assets measured at amortised cost. The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income. The Group and the Company reclassify debt instruments when and only when their business model for managing those assets changes.
Financial assets are recognised when the Group and the Company become parties to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group and the Company have transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the settlement date. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
At initial recognition, the Group/the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
The Group and the Company classify their investments in debt and equity securities, and derivatives, as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is calculated using the effective interest rate method and presented as "other income" in the income statement. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss. Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the income statement. The Group's and the Company's financial assets at amortised cost comprised trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents.
Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through other comprehensive income, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest income and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit or loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognised in separate line item. Interest income from these financial assets is included in "other income" using the effective interest rate method. Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in "other income" and impairment expenses are presented as separate line item in the income statement. The Group and the Company do not have financial assets attributed to this group of debt instruments.
Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss and presented net within "Net changes in fair value of financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss" in the period in which it arises. As the Company is investment entity, which business model is to evaluate and manage investments at fair value, the debt securities, loans granted to the owned investments are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The Group and the Company subsequently measure all equity investments at fair value through profit or loss. Changes in the fair value of these financial assets are recognised within "Net changes in fair value of financial instruments at fair value through profit loss" in the income statement.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
The fair value of investments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the close of trading, which is the date closest to the reporting date. The fair value of investments that are not traded in active markets is determined by using valuation techniques. Such valuation techniques may include the most recent transactions in the market, the market price for similar transactions, discounted cash flow analysis or any other valuation models.
From 1 January 2018, the Group and the Company assess on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with their financial assets carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
The Group/the Company follows a three-stage model for impairment for financial assets other than trade receivables:
Stage 1 – balances, for which the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition, or that have low credit risk at the reporting date. For these assets, 12-month expected credit losses ('ECL') are recognised and interest revenue is calculated on the gross carrying amount of the asset (that is, without deduction for credit allowance). 12-month ECL are the expected credit losses that result from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. It is not the expected cash shortfalls over the 12-month period but the entire credit loss on an asset weighted by the probability that the loss will occur in the next 12 months;
Loans granted are considered to be low credit risk when they have a low risk of default and the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term.
The financial asset is considered as credit-impaired, if objective evidence of impairment exists at the reporting date. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation.
Financial assets are written off, in whole or in part, when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, among others, the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor. Impaired debts are derecognised when they are assessed as uncollectible.
For trade, other receivables and contract assets, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. Trade receivables and contract assets are classified either to Stage 2 or Stage 3:
The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 36 months before reporting date and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the receivable. Such forwardlooking information would include:
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. If collection is expected in one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets.
Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, when they are recognised at fair value. The Group and the Company hold the trade receivables with the objective to collect the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Details about the Group's and Company's impairment policies and the calculation of the loss allowance are provided in Note 2.13.
Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.
For the purpose of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and in current bank account as well as deposit in bank with an original maturity of three months or less.
The cash or short-term deposits, which use is restricted, are presented in caption 'restricted cash' in the statement of financial position.
The Group and the Company recognise a financial liability when they first become parties to the contractual rights and obligations in the contract.
All financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value, minus (in the case of a financial liability that is not at fair value through profit or loss) transaction costs that are directly attributable to issuing the financial liability. Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method or at fair value through profit or loss. A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). Financial liabilities included in trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost. The fair value of a non-interest bearing liability is its discounted repayment amount. If the due date of the liability is less than one year, discounting is omitted.
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group/Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period.
After initial recognition, financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss. To this group of financial liabilities is attributable contingent consideration and derivatives that are liabilities.
A financial asset (or, where applicable a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when:
Where the Group and the Company have transferred their rights to receive cash flows from an asset and have neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognised to the extent of the Group's and the Company's continuing involvement in the asset.
In that case, the Group and the Company's also recognise an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group and the Company have retained.
Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the income statement.
At inception of a contract, the Group and the Company assess whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
At commencement or on modification of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group and the Company allocate the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of its relative stand-alone prices. The Group and the Company recognise a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date.
The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received. The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term, unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group/the Company by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group will exercise a purchase option. In that case the right-of-use asset will be depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset which is determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses (Note 2.10), if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability. As at 31 December 2019 right-of-use assets of the Group/the Company relate to leased properties and are depreciated over 2-7 and 7 years, respectively.
The Group/the Company presents right-of-use assets in 'property, plant and equipment' in the statement of financial position.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group's/the Company's incremental borrowing rate. The Group/the Company determines its incremental borrowing rate by obtaining interest rates from various external financing sources and makes certain adjustments to reflect the terms of the lease and type of the asset leased.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:
After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, it is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Group's/the Company's estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, if the Group/the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option or if there is a revised in-substance fixed lease payment. When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
The Group/the Company lease liabilities in separate line in the statement of financial position.
The Group/the Company has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases of low-value assets and short-term leases. The Group/the Company recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Lease modification is a change in the scope of a lease, or the consideration for a lease, that was not part of the original terms and conditions of the lease. The Group/the Company account for a lease modification as a separate lease if the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more underlying assets and the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone price for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that standalone price to reflect the circumstances of the particular contract. For a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease, at the effective date of the lease modification the Group/the Company allocate the consideration in the modified contract to each lease component on the basis of its relative stand-alone prices, determine the lease term of the modified lease and remeasure the lease liability by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate. The revised discount rate is determined as the interest rate implicit in the lease for the remainder of the lease term, if that rate can be readily determined, or the lessee's incremental borrowing rate at the effective date of the modification, if the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined. For a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease, the Group/the Company account for the remeasurement of the lease liability by decreasing the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease for lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease and making a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset for all other lease modifications, the Group/the Company recognize in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of the lease.
The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at inception date of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. A reassessment is made after inception of the lease only if one of the following applies:
Where a reassessment is made, lease accounting shall commence or cease from the date when the change in circumstances gave rise to the reassessment for scenarios a), c) or d) and at the date of renewal or extension period for scenario b).
Leases where the lessor retains all the risk and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognised as an expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Revenue from contracts with customers includes asset management, brokerage and other services revenue.
Revenue from asset management services is recognized as a percentage from asset under management over the period in which the control of the asset management services is transferred to the client, i.e. when services are provided. Asset management services are provided as long as the client has the investment in funds managed by the Group. Revenue from brokerage services is recognized at point in time when the control of the brokerage services is transferred to the client, i.e. when services are actually provided. It is the date when securities are recorded on the client's account (transaction settlement date).
The Group assesses whether some asset management services are separate services provided to the customer (i.e. separate performance obligation). If the service is a separate service provided to the customer, its income is recognized when the service is actual provided. If it is not a separate service provided to the customer but part of the asset management service to manage funds, the recognition of the revenue is deferred and recognized over the average period of the client's contract. The Group earns fund distribution income from investors that invest into certain funds. The Group analysed whether distribution is a separate service provided to the clients or part of the asset management service to manage funds and concluded that the distribution of alternative funds for informed investors and the distribution of investment funds is separate service, as each fund is specialized, and the Group provides a separate identification service for the person or entity investing in such a fund, which includes elements of fund selection and application. Meanwhile, in the case of the distribution of Lithuanian pension funds, the Company assesses that the distribution is not a separate service, but a part of the asset management service, because pension funds are standardized products designed for a retail client. As a result, the revenue of the pension fund distribution fee is considered as a contractual obligation and recognized over the average term of the client contract - 10 years.
The Group earns variable remuneration - a success fee when the return of certain funds exceeds the expected return limit. Depending on the fund rules, the Group acquires the right to a success fee as soon as the fund's return exceeds the expected return limit or only at the end of the fund's life when the fund's assets are distributed. The Group recognizes the success fee as revenue when it acquires the right to a calculated success fee, but only to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of success fee recognised will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
Costs to obtain contracts with customers are commissions paid to external intermediaries for distribution of pension funds. They are capitalised and presented in the statement of financial position within 'Intangible and costs to obtain contracts with customers assets'. The amortization period used for Costs to obtain contracts with customers is 10 years and is based on the average expected duration of the client's stay with the Group.
Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for financial assets that subsequently become credit-impaired. For credit-impaired financial assets the effective interest rate is applied to the net carrying amount of the financial asset (after deduction of the loss allowance).
Gain (loss) from sale of investment is recognised when the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the investment have passed to the buyer and are recognised within operating activity, as the parent company treats the securities trading as its main activity.
Income is recognised when the Group's and the Company's right to receive the payment is established.
The Company recognises a liability to make cash or non-cash distributions to equity holders of the parent when the distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. In Lithuania a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity. The liability for non-cash distributions is measured at the fair value of the assets to be distributed with subsequent fair value re-measurement recognised directly in equity as adjustment to the amount of the distribution.
Upon distribution of non-cash assets, any difference between the carrying amount of the liability and the carrying amount of the assets distributed is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the income statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
The standard income tax rate in Lithuania was 15 % in 2019 and in 2018. Starting from 2010, tax losses can be transferred within Lithuania at no consideration or in exchange for certain consideration between the group companies if certain conditions are met.
Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse based on tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:
By Lithuanian Income Tax Law shall be not taxed sale of shares of an entity, registered or otherwise organised in a state of the European Economic Area or in a state with which a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation has been concluded and brought into effect and which is a payer of corporate income tax or an equivalent tax, to another entity or a natural person where the entity transferring the shares held more than 10% of voting shares in that entity for an uninterrupted period of at least two years. If mentioned condition is met or will be met by judgement of the management of the Company, there are not recognised any deferred tax liabilities or assets in respect of temporary differences associated with these investments. By Lithuanian Income Tax Law shall be not also taxed income from investments into collective investment undertakings.
Deferred tax asset has been recognised in the statement of financial position to the extent the management believes it will be realised in the foreseeable future, based on taxable profit forecasts. If it is believed that part of the deferred tax asset is not going to be realised, this part of the deferred tax asset is not recognised in the financial statements.
Deferred tax asset are not recognised:
In Lithuania tax losses can be carried forward for indefinite period, except for the losses incurred as a result of disposal of securities and/or derivative financial instruments. In Lithuania such carrying forward is disrupted if the Company changes its activities due to which these losses incurred except when the Company does not continue its activities due to reasons which do not depend on the Company itself. In Lithuania the losses from disposal of securities and/or derivative financial instruments can be carried forward for 5 consecutive years and only be used to reduce the taxable income earned from the transactions of the same nature. From 1 January 2014 current year taxable profit could be decreased by previous year tax losses only up to 70% in Lithuania.
From 1 January 2018 according to the new Corporate Income Tax Act of Latvia the annual profit would be not taxed. Corporate income tax would be paid on distributed profit, including conditional distributed profit as for example: expenditure not related to economic activities, some loans granted to related parties, some provisions for doubtful debts. The tax rate on (net) distributed profit would be 20/80. From 1 January 2018 the tax base would be reduced by the gain on sale of shares, if the shares were held for an uninterrupted period of at least 36 months. The excess gain can be transferred and utilized in the future periods. The income tax payable on dividends from Latvian consolidated subsidiaries is recognised as the income tax expense of the period in which the dividends are declared, except for deferred tax liability from undistributed profit earned from 1 January 2018 recognised by the Group when it expected to be distributed in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred taxes assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.
Provisions are recognised when the Group and the Company have a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Group and the Company expect some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
A contingent liability recognised in a business combination is initially measured at its fair value. Subsequently, it is measured at the higher of:
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as Board of Directors that makes strategic decisions.
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are recognised in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the retained earnings. Where any group company purchases the company's equity share capital (treasury shares), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to the company's equity holders until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such shares are subsequently reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the company's equity holders.
The Company and the Group pay social security contributions to the state Social Security Fund (the Fund) on behalf of its employees based on the defined contribution plan in accordance with the local legal requirements. A defined contribution plan is a plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into the Fund and will have no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the Fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior period. Social security contributions are recognised as expenses on an accrual basis and included in payroll expenses.
Termination benefits are payable whenever an employee's employment is terminated before the normal retirement date or whenever an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The group recognises termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the entity recognises costs for a restructuring that is within the scope of IAS 37 and involves the payment of termination benefits. In the case of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after reporting date are discounted to their present value.
The Company and the Group recognise a liability and an expense for bonuses where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation. The bonus plans that provides the employee with a choice of two settlement alternatives that are mutually exclusive, and in which one of the alternative is equity-settled share-based payment and other alternative is cash that is not share-based payment, accounted for as a share-based payment by applying the requirements in IFRS 2 for compound instruments by analogy. The liability for the cash alternative that is not share-based payment are measured and remeasured in accordance with IAS 19 for such arrangements with employees. Some part of bonuses payment is deferred from one to five years after end of reporting period and employment contract have to be not terminated until payment date to receive relevant part of bonus. The deferred amount of bonuses is recognised into profit or loss over the service vesting period. Any incremental fair value of the share-based payment over the initial value of the liability component is accounted for as an equity component. If and when the choice for a cash alternative is sacrificed, then the liability is reclassified to equity and further the Group/the Company recognise employee services received as equity‑settled share‑based payment transactions.
If there is an individual arrangement with an employee the Company and the Group may make payments into defined contribution pension plans. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. The group has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.
The Group operates a number of equity-settled, share-based compensation plans (including bonus plans with cash-alternative), under which the entity receives services from employees as consideration for equity instruments (options) of the Group. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of the options is recognised as an employee benefits expense. The total amount to be expensed as equity component of share based payments is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted:
Grant date is the date at which the Group/Company and the employee agree to a share-based payment arrangement, and requires that the entity and the employee have a shared understanding of the terms and conditions of the arrangement. If the agreement is subject to an approval process, then grant date is the date on which that approval is obtained. If the employee services is rendered before grant date, the Group/the Company estimating the fair value of the equity instruments is by assuming that grant date is at the reporting date. Once grant date has been established, the Group/the Company revises the earlier estimates so that the amounts recognised for services received are based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments.
Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to vest. The total expense is recognised into profit or loss over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each reporting period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-marketing vesting conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the income statement, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.
When the options are exercised, the Company issues new shares or sell own shares. The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to share capital (nominal value) and share premium when the options are exercised by issuing of new shares.
In its separate financial statements the grant by the Company of options over its equity instruments to the employees of subsidiary undertakings in the group is treated as a capital contribution. The fair value of employee services received, measured by reference to the grant date fair value, is recognised over the vesting period as an increase to investment in subsidiary undertakings, with a corresponding credit to equity.
If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, at a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.
If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
If an equity award is cancelled by forfeiture, when the vesting conditions (other than market conditions) have not been met, any expense not yet recognised for that award, as at the date of forfeiture, is treated as if it had never been recognised. At the same time, any expense previously recognised on such cancelled equity awards are reversed from the accounts effective as at the date of forfeiture.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per share.
If the counterparty has the right to choose whether a share‑based payment transaction is settled in cash or by issuing equity instruments, the Group/the Company has granted a compound financial instrument, which includes a debt component and an equity component. The fair value of the compound financial instrument is the sum of the fair values of the two components. The Group/the Company measure the fair value of the debt component as the fair value of the liability under the cash alternative. If the liability for the cash alternative that is not share-based payment are measured and remeasured in accordance with IAS 19 for such arrangements with employees. The equity component is recognised initially at the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component, taking into account that the counterparty must forfeit the right to receive cash in order to receive the equity instrument. The Group/the Company account separately for employee services received in respect of each component of the compound financial instrument. For the debt component, the Group/the Company recognise employee services received, and a liability to pay for those services, as the counterparty renders service. For the equity component, the Group/the Company recognise employee services received, and an increase in equity, as the counterparty renders service as equity‑settled share‑based payment transactions. If and when the choice for a cash alternative is sacrificed, then the liability is reclassified to equity and further recognise employee services received as equity‑settled share‑based payment transactions. If the Group/the Company pays in cash on settlement rather than issuing equity instruments, that payment settled the liability in full. Any equity component previously recognised remain within equity.
Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the financial statements. They are disclosed unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote.
A contingent asset is not recognised in the financial statements but disclosed when an inflow or economic benefits is probable.
Events after the reporting period that provide additional information about the Group's position as at the end of the reporting period (adjusting events) are reflected in the financial statements. Events after the reporting period that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.
The preparation of financial statements requires management of the Group and the Company to make judgements and estimates that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of reporting period. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in the future periods.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
In the process of applying the Group accounting policies, management has made the following judgement, which has most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements:
According to the management, the Company meets all the defining criteria of an investment entity from the split-off in 2014 and henceforth investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and associates are measured at fair value through profit or loss. The management is continually reviewing whether the Company meets all the defining criteria of an investment entity. In addition, the management assesses the Company's operation objective, investment strategy, origin of income and fair value models and whether investment-related services provided by the consolidated subsidiaries to third parties are ancillary to its core investing activities.
When the Group starts to manage the new fund, it decides on who is the client of the Group: the fund itself or its participant. This decision affects the accounting for the cost of concluding contracts with fund participants in accordance with IFRS 15. The Group has made the following decisions about who is the client of the funds it manages:
The 49% shares of UAB Mundus are owned by two key management personnel of entity. With them was signed a shareholders agreement in November 2017. According to the agreement it is required consent of one of other shareholder to direct the relevant activities of the entity. In the agreement is not specified with which of other shareholder have to be agreed decisions regarding the relevant activities of the entity. Therefore, the Group has neither control nor joint control over entity and accounted the investment as associate at fair value, because the Company is investment entity. On 22 July 2019 shareholder agreement was changed, as result the Group has acquired control over UAB Mundus and has consolidate the entity from 1 July 2019. The amendment of the agreement provided that in deadlock situation, the Group could right to demand the acquisition of shares of other shareholders at a price not lower than that stipulated in the agreement, other shareholders do not have such a unilateral right. The Group has the practical ability to exercise the right, and therefore, it gives the Group the ability to obtain the voting rights held by the other.
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 Group based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated 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 Group. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
The significant areas of estimation used in the preparation of these financial statements are discussed below.
The fair values of investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and associates are determined by using valuation techniques, primarily earnings multiples, discounted cash flows and recent comparable transactions. The models 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, is provided in Note 13.
The fair value of the investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and associates of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2019 was EUR 13,166 thousand and EUR 30,058 thousand, respectively (as at 31 December 2018 - EUR 10,144 thousand and in the Group - EUR 22,745 thousand, in the Company – EUR 22,499 thousand, respectively) (described in more details in Note 13).
The useful lives of funds' management rights acquired through business combinations are disclosed in Note 2.6 and amortisation charge for the year is disclosed in Note 11. The useful lives are determined by management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed on an annual basis for appropriateness. The lives are based on historical experiences with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life. As at 31 December 2019 and 2018 the Group assessed that there is no impairment indication of funds' management rights. If the estimated useful lives of funds' management rights have been one year shorter, the amortisation charge for the year ended 31 December 2019 and 2018 would have increased by EUR 56 thousand and EUR 24 thousand, respectively.
Amortisation period of costs to obtain contracts with customers is 10 years, based on the average expected duration of the client's stay with the Group. If the estimated amortisation period of costs to obtain contracts with customers have been one year shorter, the amortisation charge for the year ended 31 December 2019 would have increased by EUR 30 thousand, the amortisation charge for the year ended 31 December 2018 would have increased by EUR 18 thousand.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for tax losses carry-forwards to the extent that the realisation of the related tax benefit through future taxable profits is probable. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised based upon the likely timing and amount of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.
Deferred tax asset is recognized on individual company basis taking into account future performance plans of those companies. No deferred tax asset is recognized from Group's tax losses carry forward for indefinite period of time of EUR 4,182 thousand as 31 December 2019 (as at 31 December 2018 – EUR 5,255 thousand) due to future uncertainties related with the performance of those companies. As at 31 December 2019 and 2018 all above mentioned tax losses is related to consolidated subsidiary UAB INVL Asset Management. As at 31 December 2019 in the total deferred tax asset balance of the Group the amount of EUR 240 thousand (as at 31 December 2018 – EUR 453 thousand) relates to deferred tax asset recognized from the taxable losses of the Company and EUR 564 thousand (as at 31 December 2018 – EUR 744 thousand) was recognized from the taxable losses of other Group's entities (Note 7). As at 31 December 2019 recognition of deferred tax asset from the taxable losses of acquired asset management entities are supported on the estimation of these entities' profitability, which is based on the forecasted growth of managed funds and participants portfolio, on the level of management fees, on future funds return and number of participants. If the profitability estimation would be change by 5%, deferred tax asset would be recognised by EUR 28 thousand more/less (as at 31 December 2018 – EUR 37 thousand).
The Group have bonus plans, where employees have choice of two settlement alternatives that are mutually exclusive, and in which one of the alternative is equity-settled share-based payment (by granting share options of the Company) and other alternative is cash that is not share-based payment. As described in more details in Note 2.26, this arrangement with employees is accounted as a compound financial instrument, which includes a debt component and an equity component. The Group use estimates of employee service vesting period and recognise expenses proportionately over estimated vesting period. The equity component as equity-settled share-based payment are measured at the grant date fair value of share-options. The valuation method of fair value of share-options is a significant accounting estimate. The fair value of equity-settled share-based payment is calculated using the Black-Scholes option valuation method. All key inputs, with the exception of share price volatility, are directly observable in the market (the Company's share price and risk-free interest rate). For volatility input is used historical shares volatility on exchange. More details on inputs are disclosed in Note 19.
Other areas involving estimates include useful lives of property, plant and equipment, discount rate for lease liabilities and allowances for accounts receivable. According to the management, these estimates do not have significant risk of causing a material adjustment.
The Group and the Company have adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospectively approach, under which the cumulative effect of initial application is recognized in retained earnings at 1 January 2019. Until adoption of IFRS 16 the Group and the Company have only leases, which were classified as operating leases. The Group and the Company lease premises and parking spaces. Under IFRS 16, the Group/the Company recognises right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for most of the leases – i.e. the leases are on-balance sheet. On transition, for these leases, lease liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the rate disclosed below as at 1 January 2019. Right-of-use assets are measured at an amount equal to the lease liability. The Group did not recognise right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases for which the lease term ends within 12 months of the date of initial application.
The Group and the Company recognized right of use assets (in the caption 'Property, plant and equipment' of the statements of financial position) and lease liability of EUR 1,510 thousand and EUR 121 thousand, respectively. In the income statement depreciation of lease assets (the Group: EUR 245 thousand, the Company: EUR 18 thousand) and interest on lease liabilities (the Group: EUR 124 thousand, the Company: EUR 11 thousand) replaced previously recognised lease expenses (the Group: EUR 317 thousand, the Company: EUR 24 thousand). The Group's and Company's weighted average of rate applied to discount remaining lease payments at the date of initial application is 8.75 percent and 10.29 percent, respectively.
The lease liabilities as at 1 January 2019 can be reconciled to the operating lease commitments as of 31 December 2018, as follows:
| Group | Company | |
|---|---|---|
| Operating lease commitments as at 31 December 2018 | 1,987 | 165 |

The Group and the Company have reclassified dividends received (except from dividends received from held-for-trading financial assets), loans granted and repaid and interest received from cash flows from (to) operating activities to cash flows from (to) investing activities to better represent cash flows movements. The tables below presented reclassification of the Group and the Company's cash flows items for 2018:

The Group's and the Company's principal financial instruments that are not carried at fair value in the statement of financial position are cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables.
The fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The carrying amount of the cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2019 and 2018 approximated their fair value because they are short-term and the impact of discounting is immaterial.
The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly;
Level 3: techniques which use inputs with a significant effect on the recorded fair value not based on observable market data.
Unconsolidated subsidiaries and associates are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on arm's length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group and Company is the measurement date exchange closing price.
The level 2 instruments are investments to collective investment undertakings and entities, where fair value is measured as fair value of net assets value, which is based only on observable inputs. Therefore, collective investment undertakings and these entities have invested only to securities which are measured as Level 1 instruments, and have only cash, current liabilities, which carrying amount approximate to fair value.
The valuation of Level 3 instruments is performed by the Company's employees, analysts, every quarter. The value is estimated as at the last day of quarter. The management of the Company review the valuations prepared by analysts.
Investment into shares of UAB Litagra (agriculture activity) was valued under the market approach in 2018 and 2019. Relative valuation (market multiples) was done using median EV/EBITDA (capitalization equals EBITDA multiplied by enterprise value and EBITDA multiple minus net debt) and P/BV (capitalization equals Price to book value multiple multiplied by company's book value) multiples. Although farming is considered a relatively stable business, its results for a particular year may vary depending on weather and other one-off conditions. We partially smooth out such volatility by using weighted historical financials for the entity and for its peers. EBITDA is calculated using numbers for the last three years however giving a higher emphasis for the last trailing 12 months result. Additionally, we add a value of land portfolio owned by Litagra group. It was valued by external asset valuators, accounted in the statement of financial position for the reporting period date; therefore, we use it for valuation purpose as well. The value of land portfolio is adjusted by rent costs, which would be payable in case of land sale, in EV/EBITDA multiplier method.
Agricultural activities include the primary crop and livestock (milk) production, feed production and grain processing. UAB Litagra is holding company which directly and indirectly owned shares of multiple entities which for valuation are divided into two subgroups. One subgroup comprises the primary crop and livestock (milk) production. This segment is compared to 5 peers from Central Eastern Europe region including 2 entities from Lithuania. During 2019 the average market capitalization grew although financial results slightly worsened on average. This led to EV/EBITDA multiple increase from 11.0 to 17.4. It shows that market valuations grew in general. Also, it confirms the specifics of farming business, i.e. it is relatively sensitive to weather conditions and other short term effects leading to volatility of financial results but the business remains attractive long term and investors can maintain higher valuation in prospect of improving results. P/BV multiple remained stable. Another subgroup comprises feed production and grain processing. It was compared to another 4 entities operating in grain processing business. Multiple of this valuation remained relatively stable.
Higher market multiples for the peers and improved financial results of UAB Litagra itself led to higher valuation. Another reason is increased stake as a buyout of minority shareholder was done by the entity itself with minority discount. During 2019 the effective ownership held by the Group is increased from 40.98% to 48.81%.
In 2019 the Company was prepared also valuation by using discounted cash flows method to check the valuation of multiplier method. The cash flows were adjusted by rent costs of owned land. The value of land, valued by external asset valuators, was added to the value established by discounted cash flows. The valuation supported determined fair value by multiplier method.
Investment in facility management entities was measured in 2018 and 2019 using trailing twelve months EBITDA and applying a multiplier of comparable entity City Service SE, operating in Lithuania and listed on the on the Warsaw Exchange. It was decided not to use other foreign companies' multipliers, which were higher than the one used in the calculations due to the fact that facility management is local business dependent on varying Lithuanian legal and business environment. Other facility management entities operating in Lithuania are not public companies. In 2019, the Company was prepared also valuation by using discounted cash flows method to check the valuation of multiplier method. The valuation supported determined fair value by multiplier method.
UAB Kelio Ženklai was measured according to fair value of its assets and liabilities. The main assets - buildings - of UAB Kelio Ženklai was valued using sales comparison method. On the assessment the value of UAB Kelio Ženklai reflects its net assets value.
Until acquiring of control UAB Mundus was measured using its assets under management and applying a multiplier of assets under management and discount for the small size of the entity and lack of marketability.

The risk management function within the Group is carried out in respect of financial risks (credit, market and liquidity), operational risks and legal risks. On an overall Group level strategical risk management is executed by the Board of Directors. Operational risk management is carried out at each entity level by directors. The primary objectives of the financial risk management function are to establish risk limits, and then ensure that exposure to risks stays within these limits. The operational and legal risk management functions are intended to ensure proper functioning of internal policies and procedures to minimise operational and legal risks.
The Group's and the Company's principal financial liabilities comprise trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to raise finance for the Group's and the Company's operations. The Group and the Company have various financial assets such as trade and other receivables, loans granted, investments in equity and debt securities, deposits held in banks and cash which arise directly from its operations. The Group and Company have not used any of derivative instruments so far, as management considered that there is no necessity for them.
The Group is being managed the way so its main businesses would be separated from each other. This is to diversify the operational risk and create conditions for selling any business avoiding any risk to the Company and the Group.
The Company's policy is to not provide any guarantee or surety for the Group's companies. The Group's companies do not provide any guarantees one against another usually.
The main risks arising from the financial instruments are market risk (including currency risk, cash flow and fair value interest rate risk and price risk), liquidity risk and credit risk. The risks are identified and disclosed below.
Credit risk is the risk one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to outstanding trade receivables, loans granted and debt securities.
The Group estimates the credit risk separately by the segments.
The maximum exposure to credit risk and impairment of trade and other receivables and loans granted is disclosed in Notes 15 and 16. The maximum exposure to credit risk for loans granted classified as 'investments to unconsolidated subsidiaries and associate measured at fair value through profit or loss' are their carrying amounts (EUR 1,750 thousand as at 31 December 2019 and EUR 518 thousand as at 31 December 2018). In Note 16 is also disclosed credit risk exposure of trade receivable. There are no significant transactions of the Group or the Company that occur outside Lithuania and Latvia.
With respect to credit risk arising from other financial assets of the Group and the Company, which comprise deposits at banks and cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and debt securities, the Group's and the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.
The maximum exposure to credit risk from financial assets are:
| Group | Company | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | 2019 | 2018 | ||
| Trade and other receivables | 2,246 | 7,573 | 78 | 6,640 | |

The Group's and the Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the debt obligations with floating interest rates and to the owned bonds.
The Group and the Company do not have any borrowing as at 31 December 2019 and 2018. The Company and the Group have loans granted to their consolidated subsidiaries with fixed interest rates for one year. Therefore, the Group and the Company are not exposed to cash flow interest rate risk from loans granted.
In 2019 and 2018 bonds at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk, but it was insignificant.
The Group and the Company are exposed to equity securities price risk because of investments held by the Group and the Company and classified on the statement of financial position at fair value through profit or loss. The Group and the Company are not exposed to commodity price risk. To manage their price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Group and the Company diversify their portfolio.
The Group's and the Company's investments in equity of other entities that are publicly traded are included in the equity index: OMX Baltic Benchmark Gross Index (OMXBBGI).
The table below summarises the impact of increases/decreases of the equity index on the Group's and the Company's profit before tax for the year. The analysis is based on the assumption that the equity index had increased/decreased by 20% with all other variables held constant and all the Group's and Company's equity instruments moved according to the historical correlation with the index:
| Index | Group | Company | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | 2019 | 2018 | ||
| OMXBBGI | 3,806 | 2,947 | 3,420 | 2,650 |
Profit before tax for the year would increase/decrease as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified at fair value through profit or loss.
As a result of operations the statement of financial position of the Group can be affected by movements in the reporting currencies' exchange rates. The Group's and the Company's policy is related to matching of money inflows from the most probable potential sales with purchases by each foreign currency. The Group and the Company do not apply any financial instruments allowing to hedge foreign currency risks, because these risks are considered insignificant.
The foreign currency risk at the Group and the Company is not large, taking into consideration that most monetary assets and obligations are denominated in euro. As at 31 December 2019 and 2018 the Group and Company have insignificant assets denominated in foreign currency.
The Group's and 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 their commitments at a given date in accordance with strategic plans. The liquidity risk of the Group and the Company is controlled on a level of consolidated subsidiaries. The Group's and the Company's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of borrowings. The liquidity risk management is divided into long-term and short-term risk management.
The aim of the short-term liquidity management is to meet daily needs for funds. Each operating segment is independently planning its internal cash flows. Short-term liquidity for the Group and the Company is controlled through monthly monitoring of the liquidity status and needs of funds according to the Group's operating segments.
Long-term liquidity risk is managed by analysing the predicted future cash flows taking into account the possible financing sources. Before approving the new investment projects the Group and the Company evaluate the possibilities to attract needed funds. The general rule is applied in the Group to finance the Group companies or to take loans from them through the parent company in order to minimise the presence of direct borrowings between the companies of different operating segments.

The wider economic impacts of these events include:

Management considered the following operating risks that may adversely affect the Company and Group:
Considering the potential risks, the Management took the following steps and considers the following circumstances:
Any quantification of the potential impact of COVID-19 and the related economic slowdown on the Company's and the Group's financial position and results of operations is subject to significant estimation uncertainty. However, the Company's and the Group's management follow the situation closely and reviews the costs estimated for developing activities in order to optimise their activities and ensure careful targeting of spending considering the changes in the economy and markets, and aiming to control the risks arising due to uncertainty of the situation. Based on the currently publicly available information, the management does not anticipate a direct immediate and significant adverse impact of the COVID – 19 outbreak on the Company and the Group. The management cannot, however, preclude the possibility that extended lockdown periods, an escalation in the severity of such measures, or a consequential adverse impact of such measures on the economic environment the Company and the Group operates in, will not have an adverse effect on the Company and the Group and their financial position and operating results in the medium and longer-term.

The year 2019 was very good for the Invalda INVL group. We continued steadfast work and global markets were also favourable. That allowed us to earn 140 million euros for the people who have entrusted their assets to us to manage. The profit of Invalda INVL itself was 20.8 million euros, its net asset value per share reached an all-time high of 7.47 euros, and shareholders' equity totalled 86.8 million euros.
Looking at Invalda INVL's main business areas, the first – the strategic asset management business – had a value of 13.6 million euros in the financial statements at year-end, while the second – legacy assets – had a portfolio value of 74.2 million euros.
Our business model is based on how, in investing and managing assets, we prioritize the interests of the people who entrusted the money to us to manage, their financial security and long-term return. In 2019, all the products we manage generated a positive return for investors. Some were the best in
their categories, as confirmed not just by their operating results, but also by the top ratings they are getting from rating agencies.
Last year we conducted large forest and real estate sale transactions by which we realized part of the value that has been created and earned a significant profit for investors, accumulating cash which they will be able to use in the markets or for other purposes. The INVL Baltic Forests Fund I had an average annual return of 27% (20 million euros was paid out to investors during 2019), while that of INVL Baltic Real Estate was nearly 19% (20.4 million euros of dividends to investors were approved in 2020).
I am pleased that we retained all the key members of the team and strengthened it with new ones. It is thanks to their talent and professionalism along with Invalda INVL's long years of groundwork that during the pension fund reform our number of clients grew the most in the market. The INVL Baltic Sea Growth Fund, the largest private equity investment fund for the Baltic region, also got off to a successful start.
Year-end figures for the asset management business reached new highs: 1 billion euros of asset under management and 11.3 million euros of revenue. Although we are actively investing in expansion of the asset management business and that has a negative effect on current operating results, in 2019 we earned 2.3 million euros from the asset management business.
The value of Invalda INVL's investment portfolio grew in 2019, bringing us gains of 17.8 million euros. We have a stated policy of investing together with our clients, thus seeking maximum alignment of the interests of investors and the manager. We continue decisively increasing such investments –the decision was made to invest 20.1 million euros in the INVL Baltic Sea Growth Fund, continuing Invalda INVL's long private equity investment activity.
In looking back on 2019 and taking pleasure in the year's success, we realize that the economy is cyclical and good times are followed by more difficult periods, after which growth again returns. We are ready for the coming changes: we have a strong team of professionals and a sustainable business model, we do not have debts, and we enjoy from ample financial reserves. Moreover, the downturn is a good time to enhance and develop Invalda INVL's asset management business, investing and taking advantage of the opportunities that arise in the markets, so that, once it is over, we are even better and stronger.
On behalf of the board of Invalda INVL, I thank our clients for their trust, our employees for their dedication and professionalism, our shareholders for their loyalty, and all our stakeholders for their engagement and collaboration. Together, we can grow, improve and do even more – much more – important work.

Furthermore, investments into main asset management business are recorded at equity method, therefore book value may be different from the market price. That is why some ratios can show not real situation of the company.

Invalda INVL manages the licensed asset management companies INVL Asset Management in Lithuania and Latvia, the financial brokerage company INVL Finasta, the land administration company INVL Farmland Management and 51 percent stake in Mundus through INVL Asset Management.

The new funds were set up in the context of the ongoing reform of the country's pension system, whereby from 2019 onwards, the country's population accumulate in life-cycle pension funds. Savings in life-cycle funds are distinguished by the fact that individuals no longer have to worry about changing funds - the investment strategy changes according to the age of the participants themselves, thus ensuring that accumulators take the right risk-toearnings ratio.
In the 4th quarter of the reporting period INVL Asset Management UAB underwent a restructuring of the portfolio of managed investment funds. In the first half of November 2019, the company decided to close the INVL Absolute Return Sub-Fund. Subsequently, INVL Baltic Fund was joined by INVL Emerging Europe ex. Russia TOP20 Sub-Fund. Having so far increased the number of mutual funds, the company has revised their palette in terms of efficiency for clients.

Based on the principles of sustainable forestry, the fund has developed a portfolio of quality forests, most of which has been acquired by Silvestica Green Forest Lithuania.

The long-term priority of Invalda INVL group is to ensure successful management of the entrusted assets. 2019 was a very good year, the group companies earned EUR 140 million for people who entrusted the management of their assets. Invalda INVL's profit amounted to EUR 20.8 million.
The other two main priorities of Invalda INVL group in 2019 were implemented - efficient and economically rationale participation in the ongoing pension fund reform and successful launch of INVL Baltic Sea Growth Fund by raising capital and implementing the first investments.
At the beginning of last year, INVL Asset Management completed the transfer of participants who had previously accumulated in four INVL second-tier pension funds to the life-cycle pension funds established at the beginning of the year, based on the ongoing reform of the country's pension system. During the reform, INVL Asset Management recorded the largest positive change in number of customers in the market.
In 2019, the first two transactions of INVL Baltic Sea Growth Fund were launched and implemented. At the beginning of 2020, INVL Baltic Sea Growth Fund, the largest private equity investment fund in the Baltic States, as successfully completed its final close reaching a total of €164.7 million. The Fund will focus on growth capital, buyout, and "buy and build" investments. It is expected that the portfolio of the Fund will comprise 8-12 investments in total. Since the first close, the Fund has invested in two companies within the healthcare and steel based industrial equipment manufacturing and assembly and civil engineering sectors respectively.
The Invalda INVL group's priority is the successful management of the assets entrusted to it. Taking into account the unfavourable and unpredictable situation in the markets in early 2020 due to the impact of Covid-19, the year's main challenge is to ensure the financial security and long-term investment return to the people who have entrusted their money to the Invalda INVL group for management.
While adapting to the ongoing changes, focusing on clients' needs and the effectiveness of internal processes, the intention is to further develop the asset management business. There are plans, taking advantage of the team's experience and historical success and considering market opportunities and needs, for a new forest and land fund to launch during 2020. Additionally, the INVL Baltic Sea Growth Fund intends to make significant investments.
Given the current situation of the markets, it is highly likely that in 2020 the issuer Invalda INVL will suffer losses, the size of which, due to the prevailing uncertainty, we cannot assess. Invalda INVL's results will depend on two factors. The majority of Invalda INVL's equity is comprised of General Partner investments and legacy assets. If the global stock markets continue to decline and business values decrease, the value of the assets owned by Invalda INVL is expected to diminish in 2020. The second determining factor would be the potential income decline in Invalda INVL's core asset management business which is related to the size of the assets under management and / or the result of its management activities.
We are prepared for a more difficult period. We think our business model is sustainable also in the current environment, we do not have financial debts, and we have accumulated a financial reserve which makes it possible to stably develop the asset management business and think about the investment opportunities appearing on the market.
We will strive to make good use of this period so that, once it is over, we are even better and stronger.

Activities of Invalda INVL, AB are influenced by overall economic situation of countries of activity and investments. Invalda INVL, AB also depends on its main managers – their loss could have a negative effect on activities of the company and some of business opportunities could be lost.
The main activity of Invalda INVL group – asset management business. Significant part of companies' assets consists of II pillar assets in Lithuania and Latvia, wherefore the change in legal acts in the pension system could have a negative effect in this business area. We have chosen a regulated asset management business model, and therefore the increase in regulatory burden can increase our costs and negatively impact on profitability. Asset management business must also meet capital adequacy ratios, which may require additional contributions to asset management companies in case of loss.
Our returns may be substantially lower than the average returns historically realized by the private equity industry as a whole because historical results do not show the future performance.
Economic recessions and downturns can affect the companies and assets that we have invested in, both directly and through collective investment undertakings, and reduce their value, while negatively impacting our performance.
Invalda INVL may not be able to realize profits from investments into corporate shares or collective investment undertakings. The companies and collective investment undertakings we invest in may not create value or even destroy it, devaluing our investments.
Our ability to use our capital loss carry forwards may be subject to limitations. Changes in the law or regulations that govern us could have a material impact on our business. Change in taxes and change in regulation of sectors, which are dependent on governmental funding or are regulated by the government, could have negative consequences on our business.
Company's and group's results may fluctuate and may not be indicative of future performance.
The trading price of our stock may fluctuate substantially. The price of the stock may be higher or lower than the price you pay for your shares, depending on many factors, some of which are beyond our control.

Credit risk - a risk that purchases of products and services of direct portfolio companies or businesses that we have invested in through collective investment undertakings will not fulfil their obligations and this would make negative effect on profit. Failure to fulfil major part of liabilities in time would affect the usual activity of Issuer. would result into research of additional sources of financial support, which may not always be possible. The Issuer also bears the risk of funds holding in bank accounts as well as investing into short-term financial instruments.
Our investments may be illiquid; there is a risk that we may not exit out investment at the request of the issuer's management. We may exit our investments when the portfolio company has a liquidity event, such as a sale, recapitalisation or listing in the stock exchange, or when the collective investment undertakings we invest in are making payments to investors.
Our investments into corporate shares and collective investment undertakings are extremely risky and in the worst case the company could lose its entire investment.
When we are a minority equity investor in a portfolio company, we may not be in a position to control the entity and management of the company may make decisions that could decrease the value of our portfolio holdings.
