To the shareholders of INVL Baltic Real Estate Special Closed-End Type Real Estate Investment Company AB
In our opinion, the Company's separate and consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the Company's and consolidated financial position of INVL Baltic Real Estate Special Closed-End Type Real Estate Investment Company ("the Company") and its subsidiaries ("the Group") as at 31 December 2019, and of their Company's and consolidated financial performance and their Company's and consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
Our opinion is consistent with our additional report to the Audit Committee.
The Company's and the Group's financial statements comprise:
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 financial statements section of our report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
We are independent of the Company and the Group in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) and the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on the Audit of Financial Statements that are relevant to our audit of the Company's and consolidated financial statements in the Republic of Lithuania. We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IESBA Code and the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on the Audit of Financial Statements.
To the best of our knowledge and belief, we declare that non-audit services that we have provided to the Company and the Group are in accordance with the applicable law and regulations in the Republic of Lithuania and that we have not provided non-audit services that are prohibited under Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 considering the exemptions of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 endorsed in the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on the Audit of Financial Statements.

No non-audit services were provided to the Company and the Group, in the period from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2019.

As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the Company's and consolidated financial statements (together "the financial statements"). In particular, we considered where management made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including, among other matters, consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. An audit is designed to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.
Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality, including the overall Company and Group materiality for the Company's and consolidated financial statements as a whole as set out in the table below. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, if any, both individually and in aggregate on the financial statements as a whole.
| Overall Company and Group materiality |
Overall materiality applied to the Company and the Group amounted to € 360 thousand and € 360 thousand (2018: € 350 thousand and € 353 thousand), respectively. |
|---|---|
| How we determined it | 0,8% of total equity of the Company and the Group, respectively. |
| Rationale for the materiality benchmark applied |
We chose the Company's and Group's equity as the benchmark because, in our view, it is an appropriate measure of underlying performance, and it is the benchmark |

against which the performance of the Company, the Group and other companies in this industry is most commonly measured by users, and it is a generally accepted benchmark. The key driver of the business and determinant of the Company's and the Group's value is investments into various properties. For this reason, the key area of focus in the audit of the financial statements of the Company and the Group is the valuation of investment properties. Accordingly, an overall Company and Group materiality was based on total equity.
We chose 0,8%, which is within the range of acceptable quantitative materiality thresholds.
We agreed with the Audit Committee that we would report to them misstatements identified during our audit above € 36 thousand, the same for the Company and the Group, as well as misstatements below that amount that, in our view, warranted reporting for qualitative reasons.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Refer to Notes 2.22 and 11 to the financial statements on pages 29 and 53, respectively.
The Group's/Company's investment properties represent the most significant category of the Group's/Company's assets. Investment properties are accounted at fair value. Management estimated the fair value of the Group's/Company's investment properties to be € 71,884 thousand and € 62,995 thousand at 31 December 2019, respectively, as compared to € 58,295 thousand and € 49,693 thousand at 31 December 2018, respectively.
Revaluation net gain of € 11,499 thousand and € 11,212 thousand (2018: € 1,473 thousand and € 1,379 thousand) was recorded as fair value net gains in the consolidated and Company's statements of comprehensive income, respectively.
The valuation of investment properties was based on the values determined by independent valuers or the values determined based on the preliminary sales agreement
Our procedures in relation to management's valuation of investment properties included as follows:
• evaluation of the independent external valuers' competence, capabilities and objectivity;
• assessment of the methodologies used and appropriateness of key assumptions based on our knowledge of real estate industry;
• testing, on a sample basis, whether specific information supplied to the valuers reflected the underlying property records held by the Group/Company;
• testing the data inputs underpinning the valuation for a sample of properties, including rental income, capital expenditure, by agreeing them back to the supporting documentation
• reviewing the preliminary and final sales agreements signed with an independent market participant and testing subsequent cash receipts.
Because of the subjectivity involved in determining the value of investment properties

signed with an independent market participant signed before 31 December 2019.
In determining the value of leased-out properties, the external valuers take into account property- specific current information such as current tenancy agreements and rental income earned by the asset. Subsequently, they apply assumptions in relation to capitalisation rates and current market rental prices and their growth, based on available market data and transactions, to arrive at a range of valuation outcomes, from which they derive a point estimate. Due to unique nature of each property, the assumptions applied take into consideration the individual property characteristics at a granular tenant-by-tenant level, as well as the qualities of the property as a whole.
The valuations of investment properties under development are also dependent upon the estimated costs to complete and expected profit margin of a developer.
The fair value of the investment properties which were under the sales process before the year end was determined with reference to the agreed sales price.
Given the materiality of investment properties, the revaluation to fair value had a significant impact on the financial statements. We also focused on this area as the conclusions are dependent upon significant estimates involved in performing the valuation, and they are most sensitive to the assumptions underlying those valuations. In particular, the most significant estimates relate to capitalisation, discount rates and fair market rental prices or sales prices of comparable assets, estimated costs to completion and risk premium assumptions.
For the above-mentioned reasons, due to existence of significant estimation uncertainty, we gave specific audit focus and attention to this area.
and existence of alternative assumptions and valuation methods, we have reviewed the sensitivity analysis of the fair value of investment properties to changes in key assumptions, which was prepared by the Group's management.
We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the consolidated the financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Group, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Group operates.
The Group consists of 8 entities: the Company and its subsidiaries, three subsidiaries located in Lithuania and four subsidiaries located in Latvia. The Group engagement team conducted audit work covering all significant reporting entities in Lithuania as well as in Latvia. We performed audit work on

the selected balances and transactions of subsidiaries, which were assessed as material from the Group audit perspective. The Group's consolidation and the financial statements disclosures were audited by the group engagement team. Our work addressed all of the Group's revenues and 99% of the Group's total assets.
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the consolidated annual report, including the corporate governance report (but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon), which we obtained prior to the date of this auditor's report.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information, including the consolidated annual report.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
With respect to the consolidated annual report, we considered whether the consolidated annual report includes the disclosures required by the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on Consolidated Financial Reporting by Groups of Undertakings, the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on Financial Reporting by Undertakings implementing Article 19 of Directive 2013/34/EU.
Based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit, in our opinion:
the information given in the consolidated annual report for the financial year ended 31 December 2019, for which the financial statements are prepared, is consistent with the financial statements; and
the consolidated annual report has been prepared in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on Consolidated Financial Reporting by Groups of Undertakings and the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on Financial Reporting by Undertakings.
In addition, in light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and the Group and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we are required to report if we have identified material misstatements in the consolidated annual report which we obtained prior to the date of this auditor's report. We have nothing to report in this respect.
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements 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 financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's and the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company and the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's and the Group's financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that

includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional 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 have communicated 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 financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

We were first appointed as auditors of the Company and the Group as at 23 December 2014. Our appointment has been renewed annually by shareholder resolution representing a total period of uninterrupted engagement appointment of 6 years.

Special Closed-Ended Type Real Estate Investment Company INVL Baltic Real Estate (hereinafter 'the Company', previous name AB Invaldos Nekilnojamojo Turto Fondas, code 152105644) is a joint stock company registered in the Republic of Lithuania. It was established on 28 January 1997.
On 22 December 2016 the Company was issued a closed-end investment company (UTIB) licence by the Bank of Lithuania. Under the Company's Articles of Association, the Company will operate until 22 December 2046, with an extension possibility for additional term of twenty years.
As the Company obtained the status of a closed-ended investment company, its management was thereafter undertaken by UAB INVL Asset Management ('the Management Company'), which is entitled to the Management Fee (Note 2.12) and the Performance Fee (Note 2.12).
Based on the Articles of Association, for the sake of efficiency of the Company's activities and control over its investments, an Investment Committee was formed by a decision of the Board of the Management Company. The Investment Committee consists of 3 (three) members, to the positions of which the representatives of the Management Company (employees, members of management bodies of the Management Company, other persons appointed by a decision of the Board of the Management Company) were appointed. Members of the Investment Committee shall be appointed and removed from office by the Board of the Management Company. An approval of the Investment Committee must be obtained for all investments of the Company and for their sale.
The Company also signed an agreement on depository services with AB SEB Bankas, which acts as a depository of the Company's assets.
In 2019 and 2018 the group consisted of the Company and its directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries (hereinafter 'the Group', Note 5).
The address of the office is Gynėjų str. 14, Vilnius, Lithuania.
The Group was established on 29 April 2014 by spinning-off from AB Invalda INVL (code 121304349) the investments into entities, which business is investment into investment properties held for future development, into commercial real estate and renting thereof. On 17 August 2015 the parent entity AB INVL Baltic Real Estate (hereinafter 'the Former Parent Company', code 30329973) was merged to the Company, which continues its operations under the name INVL Baltic Real Estate and became the parent of the Group.
The Group has invested in commercial real estate: business centres and manufacturing and warehouse properties in Lithuania and Latvia. All the properties generate leasing income and most of them offer prospects for further development.
The Group seeks to earn profit from investments in commercial real estate by ensuring the growth of leasing income. When it makes business sense, the Company also considers investments in the reorganisation of its existing portfolio of properties, taking advantage of their good location.

(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
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 investment properties and investments in subsidiaries that have been measured at fair value. 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/Company has adopted the new and amended IFRS and IFRIC interpretations as of 1 January 2019:
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, that are continued to be applied by the Group. 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 has adopted IFRS 16 retrospectively from 1 January 2019, but has not restated comparatives for the 2018 reporting period, as permitted under the specific transitional provisions in the standard. The main impact for the Group's and the Company's financial statements had accounted of the lease agreement of 10 August 2007 (Note 7). The Group and the Company recognised lease liability of EUR 1,321 thousand and derecognised operating lease prepayment of EUR 100 thousand. Because all property leased by above mentioned lease agreement is subleased until the expire of the agreement and thus the Group and the Company transfer substantially all the risks and rewards from the right-of-use asset resulting from the head lease, the sublease is recognised as financial lease as of 1 January 2019 at an amount equal to the net investment in the sub-lease. The Group and the Company recognised finance lease receivable of EUR 1,325 thousand. The provision for onerous contract has decreased from EUR 182 thousand till EUR 95 thousand. The total negative impact on the Group's and the Company's equity as at 1 January 2019 is amounted to EUR 9 thousand. The weighted average of the lessee's incremental borrowing rate applied to lease liabilities recognised in the statement of financial position at the date of initial application is 1.9 percent. From 1 January 2019 in the statement of comprehensive income is recognised interest expenses on lease liability and interest income from finance lease (previously was recognised lease expenses and sublease income).The Group and the Company has not capitalised leases of low value items as it is allowed by the standard.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
All other amendments adopted as of 1 January 2019 had no impact on the Group's and Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.
Other amendments to existing standards and new standards, which are adopted by the EU, but not yet effective, are not relevant to the Group and the Company.
Amendments to existing standards and new standards, which are not yet adopted by the EU, are not relevant to the Group and the Company.
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the group has control. 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. 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.
When the Group ceases to have control, 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, joint venture 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.
From 1 January 2015 the euro became local currency of the Republic of Lithuania. 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 and the Group's functional and 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 EUR thousand, individual amounts were rounded. Due to the rounding, totals in the tables may not add up.
The Group applies the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a 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. 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.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
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 subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss.
The Group and the acquiree may have a preexisting relationship or other arrangement before negotiations for the business combination began, or they may enter into an arrangement during the negotiations that is separate from the business combination. In either situation, the Group identifies any amounts that are not part of what the Group and the acquiree (or its former owners) exchanged in the business combination. The Group recognises as part of applying the acquisition method only the consideration transferred for the acquiree and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the exchange for the acquiree.
The Group identifies any preexisting relationships to determine which ones have been effectively settled. Typically, a pre-existing relationship will be effectively settled, since such a relationship becomes an "intercompany" relationship upon the acquisition and is eliminated in the postcombination financial statements. If the preexisting relationship effectively settled is a debt financing issued by the acquiree to the Group, the Group effectively is settling a receivable. The Group recognises a gain or loss if there is an effective settlement of a preexisting relationship. When there is more than one contract or agreement between the parties with a preexisting relationship or more than one preexisting relationship, the settlement of each contract and each preexisting relationship is assessed separately. Settlement gains and losses from noncontractual relationships are measured at fair value on the acquisition date.
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, excluding the costs of day to day servicing, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. 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 estimated useful lives of 3 to 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 statement of comprehensive income within "other income" in the year the asset is derecognised.
Properties that are held for long-term rental yields and for capital appreciation are classified as investment properties. Where the Group/Company owns the buildings, but not the land on which they are built, land is leased from the municipality under operating lease. Land held under operating leases is classified and accounted for by the Group/Company as investment property when the rest of the definition of investment property is met.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are carried at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the reporting date. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in profit or loss in the year in which they arise. The fair value of investment property is determined annually by qualified independent valuers (Note 11).
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset's carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group/Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When part of an investment property is replaced, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.
Investment properties are derecognised when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gains or losses on the retirement or disposal of an investment property are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within "Net gains (losses) from fair value adjustments on investment property" in the year of retirement or disposal.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
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 their expected useful lives 3 years.
Intangible assets not yet available for use, such as technical development projects where the related property is not built, are tested annually for impairment and whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired.
The business model of the Company is to manage investment into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries as one portfolio and evaluate their performance on a combined fair value basis. On this basis information on portfolio is provided to the Management Company and the Investment Committee. Therefore, the portfolio is neither held to collect contractual cash flows nor held both to collect contractual cash flows and to sell financial assets. Consequently, such portfolio of financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
At initial recognition, the Group/the Company measures portfolio of investment into subsidiaries at its fair value. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
If the fair value of the financial asset at initial recognition differs from the transaction price, it is recognised at fair value and '1 day gain' is recognised only if that fair value is evidenced by a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or based on a valuation technique that uses only data from observable markets. In all other cases the difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price is deferred. For loans granted measured at fair value through profit or loss this difference is recognised using the straight-line method over the estimated maturity of financial asset.
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.
As the business model for the Group's and the Company's other financial assets (except financial assets described in Note 2.8) is held to collect contractual cash flows and they are solely payments of principal and interest, other financial assets are measured at amortised cost. They comprised trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents. The Group and the Company reclassifies debt instruments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
Financial assets are recognised when the Group/the Company becomes party 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/the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
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.
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 statement of comprehensive income. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss. Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of comprehensive income.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
From 1 January 2018, the Group/the Company assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its 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:
The financial assets is considered as credit-impaired, if objective evidence of impairment exist 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 and other receivables, 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 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 the balance sheet 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 tenants to settle the receivable. Such forward-looking information would include:
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. Deposits with original maturity of more than three months are classified as deposits on the statement of financial position.
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.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The Management Fee is remuneration paid to the Management Company for management of the assets of the Company, which is payable for each quarter of a calendar year and is 0.375% of the quarterly weighted average capitalisation of the Company, calculated according to the Articles of Association. From 1 January 2018 the rate of the Management Fee was changed to 0.25% of the quarterly weighted average capitalisation of the Company.
The quarterly payable Management Fee is recorded as financial liability and is accounted for at amortised cost.
The Performance Fee depends on the return earned by the Company, which is calculated for the whole Company rather than for an individual shareholder, and is based on internal rate of return. The Performance Fee amounts to 20% of return in excess of the annual internal rate return of 8% (a high water-mark principle is applied). The Performance Fee is paid to the Management Company on a quarterly basis if both condition is met - the internal rate of return and the stock price growth (including dividends) exceed 8% annually.
The Performance Fee is accounted as a provision on a quarterly basis until the conditions, as described above, for the payment of the Performance Fee are satisfied, when payable part of the Performance Fee is recorded as financial liability and is further accounted for at amortised cost.
The first period for the calculation of the Performance Fee started from 30 November 2016 according to the Articles of Association of the Company, where initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return is net assets value of the Company as at 30 November 2016 (it is amounted to the equity of the Group as at 30 November 2016). If, after that date, the capitalisation of the Company (market value of the issued shares of the Company) is more than net assets value of the Company and internal rate of return calculated on the basis of net assets value is more than 8%, then payable Performance Fee is calculated based on net assets value of the Company. If the capitalisation of the Company is less than net assets value of the Company and internal rate of return calculated on the basis of capitalisation is more than 8%, then payable Performance Fee is calculated based on the capitalisation of the Company. After the Performance Fee becomes payable, the new period for calculating of the Performance Fee starts, where initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return is the capitalisation of the Company or net asset value of the Company as at the end of previous period depends on which based on these amounts payable part of the Performance Fee is calculated.
More detailed requirements are set out in the Articles of Association of the Company.
The Group/ Company recognises a financial liability when it first becomes a party 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. 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.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
Provisions are recognised when the Group has 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. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the profit or loss. 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.
An onerous contract is a contract in which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received under it. A provision for onerous lease contracts is recognised when the expected benefits to be derived by the Group/Company from a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract.
The Company is obliged to pay the Performance Fee to the Management Company (Note 2.12). There is an obligation to pay the Performance Fee, which becomes payable only in the event of outperformance of the benchmark when both condition are met as described in Note 2.12 and the Company's Articles of Association.
As services are provided over time, the obligating past event arises and a provision for the Company's management services needs to be recognised. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period.
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.
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the Group and the Company as the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments, including pre-payments, received under operating leases (net of any incentives granted to the lessee) are credited to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
Property leased out under operating leases is included in investment property in the statement of financial position (Note 11). See Note 2.17 for the recognition of rental income.
From 1 January 2019, leases where the Group and/or the Company are lessees, are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Company/the Group.
The right-of-use asset is measured at it's cost which includes the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date (less any lease incentives received), any initial direct costs incurred by the Group and/or the Company. The lease liabilities are measured at the net present value of the lease payments.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Company/ the Group, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.
The Company and the Group are exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate, which are not included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate take effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
Leases where the lessor retains all the risk and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments, including prepayments, (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognised as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Contingent rents are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
In case of leased property which is sub-leased by the Group/the Company, the classification of the lease is considered with reference to the right-of-use asset. If substantially all risks and rewards are transferred, the sub-lease is recognised as a finance lease. The intermediate lessor derecognises the right-of-use asset relating to the head lease and recognises the net investment in the sub-lease, which is equal to the present value of the lease payments for the underlying right-of-use asset during the lease term. The lessor recognises finance income over the lease term, based on a pattern reflecting a constant period rate of return on the lessor's net investment in the lease.
The Group and the Company leases land under the buildings accounted as Investment properties. The lease payments are determined by municipalities as tariff which do not depend on an index or a rate related to fair value of the land. These variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate and can be adjusted at any time during the lease period are therefore accounted for as operating expenses when they are incurred and also presented as operating cash flows in the cash flow statement.
The Company and the Group measure the right-of-use asset at fair value, which is already recognised as part of the fair value of the Investment properties related to the land and a lease liability is recognised at nil.
Operating lease income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the underlying asset and recognised as expense over the lease term on the same basis as lease income. The Group and the Company elected to recognise lease income for variable payment that depends on an index or a rate in the periods in which changes of index or rate occur. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as lease income in the periods in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs. When the Group and the Company provides incentives to its tenants, the cost of the incentives is recognised over the lease term, on a straight-line basis, as a reduction of lease income.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
Revenue from utilities and other services from is recognised in the accounting period in which control of the services are passed to the customer, which is when the service is rendered.
Revenue is measured at the transaction price agreed under the contract. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of variable consideration and payments to customers, which are not for distinct services, this consideration may include discounts, trade allowances, rebates.
A receivable is recognised when services are provided as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due.
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).
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 the Management Company and the Investment Committee that makes strategic decisions.
Borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.
From 1 January 2018 all income of Collective Investment Undertakings are not subject to taxation.
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised directly in equity.
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 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 2018 and 2019. 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 tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill; deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
The deferred tax liability in relation to investment property that is measured at fair value is determined assuming the property will be recovered entirely through sale.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
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 entity changes its activities due to which these losses incurred except when entity does not continue its activities due to reasons which do not depend on entity 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 is 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 tax losses incurred before 31 December 2017 can be carried forward for 5 consecutive years to reduce up to 50% of tax base of distributed profit in Latvia. Until 31 December 2017 gains from the sale of shares are not taxed, and losses are not deductible in Latvia. From 1 January 2018 the tax base would be reduced by the gain on sale of shares, if the shares was held for an uninterrupted period of at least 36 months. The excess gain can be transferred and utilized in the future periods.
Deferred income 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 income 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.
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/Company 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.
The Company and the Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.
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.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
In the process of applying the accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which had the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in these financial statements:
The management has concluded that the Group acts as a principal in relation to utility and other services. Although the most of services rendered to the tenants is performed by other parties, the Group has a right to a service to be performed by the other party, which gives the Group the ability to direct that party to provide the service to the customer on the entity's behalf. From tenant perspective the Group combines the services provided by other parties in providing the specified service to the them. According to the management the Group is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide services and has discretion in establishing the price for the services.
In December 2019 the Group has entered in negotiations with a third party regarding potential sale of IBC business center. As at 31 December 2019, the Group had an unbinding agreement with the 3rd party regarding the potential transaction. As at 31 December 2019 the Group did not have a formally approved plan to dispose these assets, and as a result of the negotiations with the 3rd party, no binding agreement was reached by 31 December 2019. The Group considers that the conditions existent at the balance sheet date did not satisfy the criteria of the potential transaction to be highly probable and therefore assets related to IBC business center were not reclassified to the assets held for sale in the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2019. As disclosed in Note 19 the sales transaction was completed on 6 March 2020.
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/Company 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/Company. 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.
Fair value of investment properties was based either on the market approach by reference to sales in the market of comparable properties or the income approach by reference to rentals obtained from the subject property or similar properties. Market approach refers to the prices of the analogues transactions in the market. These values are adjusted for differences in key attributes such as property size, location. Discounted cash flow projections in the income approach are based on estimates of future cash flows, supported by the terms of any existing lease and other contracts and by external evidence such as current (at the date of the statement of financial position) market rents for similar properties in the same location and condition, and using discount rates that reflect current market assessments of the uncertainty in the amount and timing of the cash flows. The future rental rates were estimated depending on the actual location, type and quality of the properties, and taking into account market data and projections at the valuation date.
The Company's investment properties located in Lithuania have to be valued twice a year by two qualified independent valuers in accordance with the Lithuanian Law on Collective Investment Undertakings. In the process of valuation the Management has discussions with the qualified independent valuers about significant unobservable inputs. If both valuers select the same approach and determine the same use of the property, but use slightly different unobservable inputs, the valuation creates a range of fair values on the basis of which the management estimate the most appropriate fair value. If the valuers determine different use of the property, the management selects to use the valuation of the valuer whose use of the property satisfies the highest and the best use principle.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The fair value of the investment properties of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2019 was EUR 71,884 thousand and EUR 62,995 thousand, respectively (as at 31 December 2018 – EUR 58,295 thousand and EUR 49,693 thousand, respectively) (described in more details in Note 11).
The fair values of investments into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries are determined by using valuation techniques, primarily discounted cash flows. The fair value of these investments was measured at the fair value of their net assets, including loans granted by the Company. The main assets of subsidiaries are investment properties, which are measured at fair value using the income approach. The main liabilities of subsidiaries are borrowings from external financial institutions, which are measured using an income approach, such as a present value technique. The models used to determine fair values are periodically reviewed and compared against historical results to ensure their reliability.
The fair value of the investments in subsidiaries as at 31 December 2019 was EUR 7,894 thousand (as at 31 December 2018 – EUR 6,553 thousand) (described in more details in Note 5).
The amount of provision for onerous lease represents the present value of future cash flows related to the lease contract. Future cash flows projections are based on the estimates of future rent income from subleased premises, contractual lease payments and estimates of maintenance and management expenses of leased premises. The estimates are reviewed at the end of each reporting period.
From 1 January 2019 upon application of IFRS 16, the operating lease contract, related to which provision for onerous lease was calculated, was recognised as a liability and right of use asset at the same amount, according to the contractual future lease payments discounted at the incremental borrowing rate of the Group. This asset is subleased to a third party, and a sublease contract was recognised as a finance lease, as substantive risks and rewards related to the right-of-use assets leased by the Group, were transferred under the sublease contract. As a result, right-of-use asset was derecognised, and finance lease receivable was recognised (see note 2.16 for accounting policy description). As the lease contract includes indexation clause based on consumer price index and the sublease contract does not include indexation, the provision for onerous contract since 1 January 2019 is recognised as a discounted difference between lease payments including the estimated indexation effect and lease payments used for measurement of lease liabilities.
The provision for onerous lease was EUR 62 thousand as at 31 December 2019 (as at 31 December 2018 – EUR 182 thousand, (described in more details in Note 7). If the inflation estimation would be change by 50 basis points the carrying amount of onerous contract provision would be an estimated EUR 15 thousand higher/lower as at 31 December 2019 (as at 31 December 2018 – EUR 20 thousand).
The amount of provision for the Performance Fee represents the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The provision is calculated on the basis of the net assets value of the Company, which equals to the equity of the Group. The Performance Fee would become payable only if the stock price growth (including dividends) exceeded 8% annually. As described in Note 2.12, the payable Performance Fee could be based on net assets value or on the capitalisation of the Company. The Company cannot control stock price of the Company shares, therefore the timing and the amount of the Performance Fee payable in future are uncertain.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
As at 31 December 2019, provision was calculated as an amount equal to 20% of return in excess of the annual internal rate of return of 8% for period from 30 September 2019 till 31 December 2019. For this period internal rate of return based on net assets value of the Company amounted to 270.89%. Initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return for this period was capitalisation of the Company as at 30 September 2019, as internal rate of return for period from 30 June 2019 till 30 September 2019 based on the capitalisation of the Company amounted to 11.01% and exceeded 8%, but the capitalisation was less than net assets value of the Company as at 30 September 2019.
As at 31 December 2018, provision was calculated as an amount equal to 20% of return in excess of the annual internal rate of return of 8% for period from 30 September 2018 till 31 December 2018. For this period internal rate of return based on net assets value of the Company amounted to 73.17%. Initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return for this period was capitalisation of the Company as at 30 September 2018, as internal rate of return for period from 31 December 2017 till 30 September 2018 based on the capitalisation of the Company amounted to 9.13% and exceeded 8%, but the capitalisation was less than net assets value of the Company as at 30 September 2018.
As at 31 December 2019 the Company recognised non-current provision for the Performance Fee of EUR 2,486 thousand (as at 31 December 2018 - EUR 811 thousand) after deducting the payable part of the Performance Fee of EUR 238 thousand recognised within other current liabilities) (Note 7).
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The risk management function within the Group is carried out in respect of financial risks, operational risks and legal risks. On an overall Group level strategical risk management was executed by the Management Company. 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 borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of the borrowings 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 and cash which arise directly from its operations. The Company and the Group have not used any derivative instruments so far, as management considered that there is no necessity for them.
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, credit exposures to outstanding trade receivables and loans granted. The Group/Company seeks to ensure that rental contracts are entered into only with lessees with an appropriate credit history, from some of lessees advance lease payments are required.
The maximum exposure to credit risk and impairment of trade and other receivables is disclosed in Note 13. The maximum exposure to credit risk for loans granted to subsidiaries measured at fair value through profit or loss are their carrying amounts (Note 5). In Note 13 is also disclosed credit quality of trade receivable. There are no transactions of the Group or the Company that occur outside Lithuania and Latvia.
As at 31 December 2019 the Group and the Company had no significant concentrations of credit risk.
With respect to credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents and deposits 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.
According to the European deposit insurance scheme, cash, cash equivalents and deposits of up to EUR 100 thousand of every legal entity in each bank are covered with insurance. All the Group's balance of cash and cash equivalents are covered with the insurance, except for the Company's cash and cash equivalents, because the Company is a collective investment undertaking. The insured amounts of cash placed on AS "SEB banka" accounts were exceeded by EUR 157 thousand and insured amounts of cash placed on AB Šiaulių bankas accounts were exceeded by EUR 102 thousand as at 31 December 2019.
All cash balances have a low credit risk at the reporting date and the impairment loss determined on 12-month expected credit losses is resulted in an immaterial amount.
The credit quality of cash and cash equivalents can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings of the banks:
| Group | Company | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | 2019 | 2018 | ||
| Moody's short-term ratings | |||||

| 1,039 | 734 | 459 | 454 |
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
Market risk
The Group's/Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the debt obligations with floating interest rates. The borrowings from related party AB Invalda INVL were with fixed interest rates for one year.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in floating interest rates (EURIBOR), with all other variables held constant, of the Group's and the Company's profit before tax (through the impact on floating rate borrowings). There is no impact on the Group's and the Company's equity other than current year profit impact.
| Increase in basis points |

| EUR | +50 bps | (124) | (114) |
| 2018 | |||
| EUR | +50 bps | (113) | (102) |
As at 31 December 2019 and 2018 EURIBOR were negative and according to borrowings agreements was equalled to zero.
The Group and the Company holds assets and liabilities denominated only in the Euro, which is functional and presentation currency of the Group. Therefore, the Group and the Company are not exposed to foreign exchange risk.
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's operation in Lithuania and the Company is controlled on an overall Group level. The liquidity risk of the Group's operation in Latvia is controlled on an entity level. The Group's and the Company's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank loans. The liquidity risk management is divided into long-term and shortterm risk management.
The aim of the short-term liquidity management is to meet daily needs for funds. Short-term liquidity for the Group and the Company is controlled through monthly monitoring of the liquidity status and needs of funds.
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 Group's liquidity ratio (total current assets / total current liabilities) as at 31 December 2019 and 2018 was approximately 0.4 and 0.8, respectively. The Company's liquidity ratio as at 31 December 2019 and 2018 was approximately 0.3 and 0.74.
As at 31 December 2019 the current assets were lower than current liabilities by EUR 3,199 thousand in the Group and EUR 2,010 thousand in the Company. Management of the Group and the Company forecasted the cash flows of the Group and the Company for 2020 and the forecast indicates that the Group and the Company will have sufficient funds to cover liabilities, which fall due in 2020. The Group has sold IBC business center on 6 March 2020 (see note 19) for EUR 33 million which fully covers short term liquidity needs.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)

Provision for onerous contract is disclosed in the tables above, because it is a financial liability arising from the unavoidable cost of meeting the obligation of contract. The amounts disclosed are undiscounted future loss amounts used to calculate provision.
The primary objective of the capital management is to ensure that the Group and the Company maintain a strong credit health and healthy capital ratios in order to support their business and maximise shareholder value. The Company's management supervises the investments so that they are in compliance with requirements applied to the capital, specified in the appropriate legal acts, as well as provide the Group's management with necessary information.
The Group's and the Company's capital comprises share capital, share premium, reserves and retained earnings.
The Group and the Company manage their capital structure and make adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions and specific risks of their activity. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares.
The Company is obliged to keep its equity ratio at not less than 50 % of its share capital, as imposed by the Law on Companies of Republic of Lithuania. The Company and the Group complied with this requirement as at 31 December 2019 and 2018, except for two subsidiaries in 2019 and in 2018. There are no plans yet to rectify the situation in Lithuania. Pursuant to the Latvian Commercial Law the authorised share capital of a private limited liability company must be not less than EUR 2,800. As of 31 December 2019 and 2018, all Latvian subsidiaries complied with this requirement.
Starting from 2016 the Company has the right to pay dividends without bank consent 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. In addition, on 29 December 2017 the Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting of the Company changed dividend payment policy by increasing the minimum dividend from EUR 0.012 till EUR 0.026, if the legal and contractual requirements do not restrict the payment of dividends. After change of nominal value of shares the minimum dividend per share can not be less than EUR 0.13 (Note 14).
The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices);
Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).

In 2019 the investment property related to business center IBC was reclassified from value measurement level 3 to level 1 because these assets were revalued based at the transaction price at which these assets were sold after the balance sheet date (see note 19). There were no transfers of assets between the Level 1 and Level 2 and between Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during 2018 .
There were no liabilities measured at fair value in the Group's and the Company's statements of financial position.
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, deposits, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, non-current and current borrowings, provision for onerous contract.
The carrying amount of the cash and cash equivalents, deposits, 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 carrying amount of borrowings of the Group and the Company and provision for onerous contract as at 31 December 2019 and 2018 approximated their fair value. Bank borrowings have floating interest rate and were renegotiated recently, therefore their interest rate represents the current market rate. The interest rates of borrowings from related party are reviewed at the end of each financial year and adjusted in line with market rates changes, therefore it was concluded that their fair value approximates carrying amount. The fair values of non-current borrowings are based on discounted cash flows using a current interest rate. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to use of unobservable inputs, including own credit risk.
The Group had the following subsidiaries directly or indirectly owned by the Company as at 31 December 2019 and 2018:

The main part of investments into subsidiaries together with loans granted are loans granted to Latvian entities. In 2015 50% of these loans were acquired by the Former Parent Company at a price below their estimated fair value, which was measured as 50% of fair value of net assets of subsidiaries, over which control was obtained by the Former Parent Company. On the acquisition day, the difference amounted to EUR 1,014 thousand. As the fair value was not determined based on observable inputs, this '1 day profit' was not recognised immediately but is deferred and is recognised during the estimated maturity of the loans. During 2019 and 2018 the Company has recognised EUR 203 thousand and EUR 203 thousand of this '1 day profit' within 'Net changes in fair value of investment into subsidiaries designated at fair value through profit or loss' in the statement of comprehensive income, respectively. As at 31 December 2019 and as at 31 December 2018 unrecognised part of '1 day profit' was EUR 101 thousand and EUR 304 thousand, respectively. Therefore, the total fair value of loans granted by the Company was EUR 7,692 thousand and EUR 6,758 thousand as at 31 December 2019 and 2018, respectively (their carrying amount – EUR 7,591 thousand and EUR 6,454 thousand, respectively). It is Level 3 measurement.
Management of the Company has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the Investment Committee of the Management Company that are used to make strategic decisions. The Investment Committee analyses performance of the Group on property-by-property basis of owned premises, while leased premises are reported on a combined basis. Performance is evaluated based on net operating income. Net operating income is calculated by deducting from revenue premises rent costs (excluding provision for onerous contract), utilities expenses, repair and maintenance expenses, property management and brokerage costs, taxes on property and insurance costs. Segment assets and liabilities are not reported to the Investment Committee. Management of the Company has determined the following reportable segments:

Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing net profit for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
The weighted average number of shares for the year ended 31 December 2019 was 13,150 thousand.
On 15 January 2018 the change of the nominal value of shares from EUR 0.29 to EUR 1.45 was considered as reverse share split. Therefore, the basic and diluted earnings per share was recalculated by using number of shares if the reverse share split would have occurred before the start of the comparative period of financial statements.

Investment properties are measured at fair value. During 2019, properties leased out by the entity and investment properties held for future redevelopment in Lithuania were valued as at 31 October 2019 and 30 April 2019, respectively, by an accredited valuer UAB OBER-HAUS Nekilnojamasis Turtas (hereinafter together with SIA OBER-HAUS Vertešanas Serviss referred to as 'Oberhaus') using the income approach, in 2018 investment properties also were valuated by an accredited valuer UAB Newsec Valuations (hereinafter 'Newsec') using the income approach and market approach. During 2019 investment properties located in Latvia were valued as at 31 October 2019 and 30 April 2019, respectively, by an accredited valuer SIA OBER-HAUS Vertešanas Serviss using a market approach for land and using an income approach for warehouse. There were no significant changes in the market during period from valuation date till end of reporting period that could have an effect on the value of investment properties, therefore the updated valuation was not performed as at 31 December 2019.
The Group's policy is to recognise transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer.
The fair value represents the price that would be received selling an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, in compliance with the International Valuation Standards set out by the International Valuation Standards Committee. An investment property's fair value was based either on the market approach by reference to sales in the market of comparable properties or the income approach by reference to rentals obtained from the subject property or similar properties. Market approach refers to the prices of the analogues transactions in the market. These values are adjusted for differences in key attributes such as property size, location and quality of interior fittings. The most significant input into this valuation approach is price per square metre.
The investment property of business center IBC which was sold after the balance sheet date, has been valued at its sales price in these financial statements, as the sales price provided the best estimate of the fair value of the property at the balance sheet date.
Income approach is based on the assumption that defined correlation between net activity future income and fair value of the objects exists. For properties leased out by the entity main inputs include:
Future rental cash inflows based on the actual location, type and quality of the properties and supported by the terms of any - existing lease, other contracts or external evidence such as current market rents for similar properties;
Discount rates reflecting current market assessments of the uncertainty in the amount and timing of cash flows;
Estimated vacancy rates based on current and expected future market conditions after expiry of any current lease;
Maintenance costs including necessary investments to maintain functionality of the property for its expected useful life;
Capitalisation rates based on actual location, size and quality of the properties and taking into account market data at the valuation date;
Terminal value taking into account assumptions regarding maintenance costs, vacancy rates and market rents.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
Investment properties held for future redevelopment were estimated taking into account the following estimates (in addition to the inputs noted above):
Sales prices based on the valuers' experience and knowledge of market conditions of residential and commercial properties;
Costs to complete that are based on the valuers' experience and knowledge of market conditions and term sheets outlined in approved detailed plans. Costs to complete also include a reasonable profit margin;
Completion dates, as properties under construction require approval or permits from oversight bodies at various points in the development process, including approval or permits in respect of initial design, zoning, commissioning, and compliance with environmental regulations. Based on management's experience with similar developments, all relevant permits and approvals are expected to be obtained. However, the completion date of the development may vary depending on, among other factors, the were no changes to the valuation techniques during the period;
Profit on cost ratio reflecting current market assessment of profitability margin of developments projects. It is based on the internal rate of returns for similar projects.

The past year was a time of particularly successful growth for the company in pursuit of our goal of earning a return for investors regardless of the size of the assets held.
Thus it is highly gratifying that last year we not only ensured stable growth in leasing income and in the value of property holdings, but also, after announcing in December that negotiations were underway, in March of this year we completed a transaction for the sale of the IBC Business Centre. The properties sold in the transaction were valued on INVL Baltic Real Estate's balance sheet for the end of 2019 at the transaction price, as required by accounting standards. The impact of the transaction on INVL Baltic Real Estate's 2019 profit was EUR 7.6 million and its impact on the company's net asset value (NAV) per share was EUR 0.58.
INVL Baltic Real Estate's consolidated net operating income from its properties in 2019 was EUR 2.0 million, or 33% less than in 2018 (when it was EUR 3.0 million). That result was
significantly influenced by renovated premises, also at the IBC Business Centre, since those ongoing maintenance expenses were assessed as costs. INVL Baltic Real Estate's consolidated revenue for 2019 was EUR 5.90 million, or 1.3% more than in 2018 (EUR 5.82 million). Of that, consolidated leasing income from owned properties increased 2.6% to EUR 4.6 million.Last year also stood out for another new project – the opening of the Talent Garden Vilnius coworking space in the building at Vilnius Street 33, which completed the reconstruction works on the building at Palanga Street 4 / Vilnius Street 33.
In addition, the Vilnius Gates Business Centre continues to improve its results – its leasing income for the year rose to EUR 1.1 million, or 4.1% more than in 2018. The group's net profit for 2019 was EUR 10.4 million. The value of its property holdings increased by EUR 13.6 million (including a EUR 11.5 million revaluation) and at year-end was EUR 71.9 million, while its equity was EUR 44 million at the end of the year. Equity per share was EUR 3.35 and during the year increased 29% (also taking into account dividends that were paid during 2019).
Last year the IBC Business Centre, which is the largest of INVL Baltic Real Estate's properties, further maintained a high level of occupancy and increased its leasing income, which grew 4.7% from 2018 to EUR 2 million. Not only did we manage to successfully renew all planned lease agreements last year, but we also gave a lot of attention to the renewal of leased premises (enhancement, renewal and repair work was carried out on existing premises). In December 2019 we gave notification that negotiations were underway regarding the sale of this property – the transaction was completed in March and had a value of EUR 33 million.
Other properties owned by INVL Baltic Real Estate also showed high occupancy and improving performance indicators. We are pleased that our clients continue to remain loyal and trust INVL Baltic Real Estate as a reliable and long-term partner. In the coming year we will strive to further meet our clients' expectations and increase value for investors.
The year 2019 was particularly favourable for the Real Estate (hereinafter referred to as the RE) market. The low profitability of alternative traditional investment instruments had a significant impact on the RE attractiveness not only in the housing sector but also in the commercial property sector. Irrespective of the economic circumstances favourable to the RE market, each sector faces its own challenges. If property buyers are satisfied with a better financial return on the property, property developers borrow at an increasingly higher cost, which has a significant impact on the revision of initial development plans. The economic environment that is still favourable, the growing income of companies in the services sector and active development of international and local companies cause the office segment to remain highly dynamic and liquid.
In 2019, the construction of four business centres was completed in the capital city. They added 50,000 sq.m. of floor space available for lease to the market, i.e. half of the planned floor area. The development of some projects was delayed and, therefore, they will open their doors to the public only in 2020. In total, in 2020, the market should expand by approx. 150,000 sq.m. of leasable space, including the slightly delayed projects. At the end of the year, the vacancy of Class A business centres further decreased and makes up 2 %, which gives more confidence to the developers who are willing to offer more interesting projects to the market. The non-leased floor area of B1 business centres has, in principle, remained the same and since the last year it has slightly decreased, a little less than by 1 %, and it currently makes up 4 %. The occupancy rate of Class B2 business centres has remained the same and decreased only by 1 % over the last year. Although it is likely that the attractiveness of Class B2 business centres will decrease in the future but it would be too early to state that this process has already started. Traditionally, the strengths of Class B2 include not only a lower lease price but also the possibility of leasing premises with a smaller floor space. Over the last year, the number of co-working spaces offered for lease in the capital city has been increasing. Although they are significantly more expensive than Class A offices but the flexibility offered by coworking spaces in terms of floor space is acceptable to lessees, and this will make the situation of the lower class business centres in the competitive fight even harder. The lease prices in Vilnius have remained stable, the change is recorded in the Class B1 segment only, after the lower threshold price has increased. The price range of Class A business centres still stands at EUR 14–17/sq.m., B1 Class – EUR 11–14/sq.m., and Class B2 remained the same and amounts to EUR 7–10/sq.m.
In 2019, six business centres were opened in Kaunas and offered around 40,000 sq.m. of leasable space to the market. The opening of two projects was transferred into the year 2020. Currently, it is planned that another six business centres will be opened in 2020 and they will also offer to the market over 40,000 sq.m. Currently, the vacancy of Class A business centres accounts for 9 %, i.e. 1 % more than during the same period last year and 5 % more than in the middle of the year. Over the past 12 months, the vacancy of Class B1 premises grew from 9 % to 14 %, and the vacancy of Class B2 premises increased from 11 % to 14 %. Slightly more vacant premises did not have any major impact on the lease prices, and they remain unchanged. The price range of newly concluded contracts is EUR 12-14/sq.m. in Class A business centres, EUR 9–12/sq.m. in Class B1 business centres and EUR 6–9/sq.m. in Class B2 business centres.
The Klaipėda office market is still lagging behind, compared to the cities of Kaunas and Vilnius; however, the development plans are implemented without any delays there. As anticipated, one business centre, which offered the premises with a total area of 6,000 sq.m. for lease, was opened in 2019. The plans for the year 2020 remain the same – four business centres, 2 Class A and 2 Class B, with a total area of 10,000 sq.m. available for lease. However, the Klaipėda city stands out in terms of the most unused market potential of business centres; thus, the pace of development should be more rapid in the longer perspective. The moderate development of business centres had no significant impact on the occupancy rate of business centres. The occupancy rate of Class A business centres decreased and vacant premises account for 22 %, but the supply of premises of this class is not high and a few transactions can significantly change the situation. The vacancy of Class B1 premises has been constantly decreasing since the end of 2018. Currently, it makes up only 4 % and is around 1 % lower than in 2018. No significant changes have been recorded in the Class B2 segment, vacant spaces account approx. for 5 %, and since the last year they have decreased by 1 % as well. Over the year, the average lease prices in the Klaipėda-based Class A business centres fell by 10 %. Currently, such premises can be leased at the price of EUR 9–12/sq.m. It can be stated that the Class A business centres in the port city have started to directly compete with Class B1, where the lease price of premises makes up EUR 7–11/sq.m. More intense competition between the higher-class offices reduced the prices in the B2 segment in which the premises can be rented at the rate of EUR 5–7/sq.m.
In 2019, the Riga warehousing and logistics market was supplemented by the new warehousing spaces of approx. 70,000 sq.m. The plans for this year include the development of new spaces with a total area of 210,000 sq.m. The vacancy rate in Riga stood at 1.7 %, and the lease prices fluctuated within the range of EUR 3.5-4.7/sq.m. Sources:

After the Bank of Lithuania issued the closed-ended type investment company operating license for INVL Baltic Real Estate on 22 December 2016, the rights and duties of the Board and the head of the Company are implemented by the Management company INVL Asset Management.
The management fee payable to the Management Company (hereinafter – Management Fee) is the remuneration for management of the assets of the Company, which shall be payable for each quarter of a calendar year. By the decision of the Gereral Shareholders' Meeting of the Company held on 29th December 2017, the Management Fee was reduced from 1.5% to 1.0%, the Management Fee for a calendar year shall be 0.25% for the quarter of the year of the weighted average capitalisation of the Company. The Performance Fee shall be additionally paid to the Management Company under the procedure set in the Articles of Association. During the reporting period the Management fee payable to the Management Company was EUR 331 thousand and EUR 238 thousand success fee payable (in 2018 the Management fee to the Management Company amounted to EUR 307 thousand and EUR 50 thousand success fee payable, whereas in 2017 - the Management fee payable to the Management Company amounted to EUR 296 thousand and EUR 386 thousand success fee payable).
The members of the Board and the members of the Investment Committee of the Management Company do not receive remuneration for these duties. They are paid the salary according to the employment contract with the Management Company.
During the reporting period company's managing bodies, which are mentioned in the section 13 of the report, were paid EUR 663 of dividends, net of tax. There were no assets transferred, no guarantees granted, no bonuses paid and no special payouts made by the company to its managing bodies. The managing bodies were not granted with bonuses by other companies of INVL Baltic Real Estate group.
During the reporting period INVL Baltic Real Estate Group and the Company for Invalda INVL, AB - the company providing accounting services - respectively paid EUR 15 thousand and EUR 7 thousand during the reporting period (in 2018 – respectively paid EUR 15 thousand and EUR 8 thousand, in 2017 – respectively paid EUR 12 thousand and EUR 10 thousand, in 2016 – respectively paid EUR 12 thousand and EUR 10 thousand, in 2015 – respectively paid EUR 13 thousand and EUR 9 thousand).
Invalda INVL, AB and INVL Asset Management, UAB provide accounting services and preparation of the documents related with bookkeeping for INVL Baltic Real Estate according to an Accounting services agreement.
INVL Baltic Real Estate has signed these agreements with the following intermediaries:
INVL Baltic Real Estate has no branches or representative offices.
Information, provided in this document, should not be considered complete and covering all aspects of the risk factors associated with public company's INVL Baltic Real Estate activity and securities. There are only basic risks and their descriptions provided in this report. Detailed descriptions of the risks are published on the Company's website.
After the issuance of the Licence by the LB on 22 December 2016, the Company started to operate not only according to the Law on Companies and Law on Securities and other related legal acts, as it was until obtaining a Licence, but also under the Law on Collective Investment Undertakings and other related legal acts, which establish certain specific obligations in respect of the protection of Company's shareholders and certain operating restrictions, e.g. the Company is entitled to invest the managed funds following the requirements of the investment strategy of the Company, certain limitations of the applicable laws are applied to the Company with regards its investments, their diversification, management thereof, etc. Furthermore, the Company's operating expenses might be increased because of the requirements to conduct periodic property's assessment, protect the Company's property in the Depository and other.
It should also be noted that investments into Shares of the Company (holding a Licence) are related to higher than average, long-term risk. The Company cannot guarantee that the shareholders will get invested funds back. Therefore, Shares of the Company are suitable only for investors, who seek higher long term returns but could afford to take higher than average risk, including loss of principal.
The value of an investment into real estate can fluctuate in the short term depending on the general economic situation, real estate lease and sale prices, demand and supply fluctuations. Investments into real estate should be made for a medium or long period in order that the investor could avoid the risk of short-term price fluctuations. Investments into real estate are related to higher than average risk. If investments are not profitable or in case of other unfavourable circumstances (inability to pay creditors in time), bankruptcy proceedings can be instituted against the Company. Redemption of the Shares is limited, i.e. a shareholder cannot demand that the Company or the Management Company, which took over its management, would redeem the Shares. But a shareholder will have a possibility to sell Shares in the secondary market.
Real estate projects developed by the Company can take longer than planned or cost more than planned and return on investments of the Company may decrease for this reason. Managing this risk, the Company will assign sufficient resources for control over the budgets and performance terms of real estate development projects.
There is a risk that in case of inflation the value of a Share will grow slower than the inflation, which would result in the return lower than inflation. In such a case, the real return earned by persons who sold the Shares of the Company in the market from increase in the value of the Shares can be smaller than expected. In case of deflation, there would be a risk that the value of the Company's investments will decrease by reason of the drop of the general price level.
Real estate development tends to follow the general developments in the macroeconomic environment. Interest rates, unemployment, inflation, private consumption, capital expenditure and other macroeconomic indicators have significant influence on real estate developments and hence the operations and the potential profitability of the Group.
Favourable developments in the macroeconomic environment increase demand for real properties, allow the real estate companies to increase rent rates of properties and other prices related to activities of the Group. Adverse developments increase pressure on real estate prices, rent rates and yields. Hence the Group's results are dependent on general macroeconomic environment and adverse developments in the environment might lead to reconsideration of some of the Group's development plans, negative pressure on prices and rents of the Group's properties or other changes in relation to the Group's properties that might have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, results of operations, financial condition and profitability.
Real estate development is a cyclical sector. The number of real estate related transactions fluctuates significantly depending on the stage of the real estate cycle. In the Baltic countries has been relatively high lately as a fast growth in prices fuelled by availability of cheap financing was followed by a steep decline as a result of financial crisis. In the future the Baltic real estate market might regain the lost momentum, again inflating the price levels, which might be followed by overheating of the market and downward pressure on the prices, thus, starting the next real estate cycle.
The success of the Company's investments will largely depend on decisions taken by persons in the Management Company who are responsible for management of the Company and on experience and capabilities of the said persons. There is no guarantee that the same persons will always remain responsible for management of the Company, however efforts will be used that activities of the Company would always be taken care of by properly qualified persons.
The Group's cash inflows currently are sufficient to finance operating cash outflows and to pay monthly instalments of repayments and interests payments of bank borrowings. However, further development of the Group's activities will require substantial amounts of capital to fund capital expenditures. For this reason, failure to secure adequate levels of external financing might limit the Group's growth plans and place it at competitive disadvantage as compared to well-capitalized peers. Failure to obtain external financing may lead to forced sale of assets at unfavourable prices or even cause insolvency which may have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, results of operation or financial condition and may destroy the shareholders' value.
The Group's lease agreements may be divided into two categories: non-cancellable fixed-term lease agreements and cancellable lease agreements entered into for an unspecified term. For the cancellable lease and sublease agreements, tenants must notify the administrator 1-12 months in advance, if they wish to cancel the rent agreement and have to pay 1-6 months' rent fee penalty for the cancellation. According to non-cancellable lease and sublease agreements tenants must pay the penalty equal to rentals receivable during the whole remaining lease period.
The Group seeks to use both types of agreements, depending on the market situation and the properties in question. Lease agreements entered into for an unspecified term involve nevertheless a risk that a large number of such agreements may be terminated within a short period of time. The Group aims at renewing the fixed term lease agreements flexibly in cooperation with its tenants. There are, however, no guarantees that the Group will be successful in this. In order to prevent tenants from terminating the lease agreements, the Group may also be forced to agree on the reduction of rent fees. The reduction of rent fees payable to the Group under a large number of lease agreements and/or concurrent termination of a large number of lease agreements could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, results of operations and financial condition.
On 2 January 2013 the Company has entered into an agreement with a third party for property management and administration services on part of Company's asset portfolio. An agreement was terminated on 1 January 2018, after the Company's subsidiary Proprietas, UAB and the Company signed a property management and administration agreement. The detailed list of buildings, administered, based on this agreement is provided in Section 2.3. of the Company's consolidated annual report "Information about the Issuer's group of companies". Under this agreement the third party, as an administrator of the property, is committed to increase Company's value and maintain high quality of service for buildings' tenants and employees. In case of change in administrative prices in the market, new contracts under less favourable conditions can be entered into with administrator, which may directly influence the increase in Company's costs.
There is a risk that in case of fast recovery of the global economy or increase in inflation, central banks will increase interest rates and it will be more expensive to service loans in connection with the Company's investments, therefore, the value of the Company's investments can decrease. In order to avoid this risk, the Management Company shall seek that the Company would get most of its loans at fixed interest rates. If it seems necessary, the Company shall hedge against interest rate risk when entering into relevant transactions.
Furthermore, interest rate risk mainly includes loans with a variable interest rate. On 26 August 2014 the Company and Šiaulių Bankas AB entered into a credit agreement for EUR 15.35 million credit (on 10 April 2018 a credit limit was increased till EUR 23,925,500) with variable interest rate – 6 month EURIBOR and fixed margin. In addition to that, on 15 July 2015 the Subsidiary Dommo Biznesa Parks SIA and ABLV Bank AS entered into a credit agreement in an amount of 3 million with variable interest rate – 3 month EURIBOR and fixed margin. Rising interest rates will increase the Group's debt service costs, which will reduce the return on investment. If considered necessary, the Group will manage interest rate risk by entering into financial derivatives' contracts.
Leverage risk is related to possible depreciation of real estate objects acquired with borrowed money. The bigger the leverage, the higher probability of this risk is. The level of borrowings of the Group was 36.5% of its investment property market value as of 31 December 2019 (38.8% as of 31 December 2018, 38.5% as of 31 December 2017, 41% as of 31 December 2016).
The Company has given and may have given loans to other companies, therefore, in case of deterioration of the financial condition of those companies, there is a risk that the Company will not get back all the loans granted by it.
This is a risk to incur losses due to low liquidity of the market, when it becomes difficult to sell assets at the desired time at the desired price. In management of this risk, the Company will regularly monitor the real estate market, will get ready for the property sale process in advance, in this way reducing the liquidity risk. Acquiring Shares, the shareholders also assume the risk of securities liquidity – in case of a drop in demand for Shares or delisting them from the stock exchange, investors would find it difficult to sell them. In case of deterioration of the Company's financial situation, the demand for Shares, as well as their price may decrease. Liquidity risk also covers the cash flow disruption risk incurred by the Company due to late payments and/or full default on monetary obligations by insolvent tenants.
The value of the investment in real estate can vary in the short term, depending on the general economic conditions, rent and purchase prices of real estate, demand and supply fluctuations, etc. Investment in real estate should be carried out in the medium and long term, so that the investor could avoid short-term price fluctuations. Investing in real estate is related to higher than medium risks. Failure of investments of the Group or under other ill-affected circumstances (having been unable to pay for the creditors) can have a significant adverse effect on the Group's performance and financial situation or in the worst case scenario bankruptcy proceedings may be initiated.
This is a risk that one bad investment can have a significant effect on the results of the Company. In order to reduce this risk, the Company will have a sufficient number of different real estate objects in its portfolio, in this way maintaining the proper diversification level.
The Company will seek to let real estate objects at as high prices as possible. Though currently the rent is paid in time (overdue obligations of tenants are very small and are not significant for activities of the Company), there is a risk that upon change (deterioration) of the economic situation the tenants will default on their obligations – this would have a negative impact on the profit and cash flows of the Company. In case of late performance of a large part of obligations, the ordinary business of the Company may be disrupted, it may be necessary to search for additional sources of financing, which may be not always available. The Company, in case of failure to earn planned income from lease or to maintain a high percentage of occupation of the buildings, can face the problem of costs that are not compensated by permanent tenants. This risk may manifest itself in case of big increase in the supply of rented premises and reduction in demand, drop in rental fees. In case of a failure to let the premises at planned prices or in planned scopes, also in case current tenants terminate their lease agreements, the income of the Company could decrease, whereas fixed costs would remain the same. Accordingly, the profit of the Company would decrease.
The assets of the Company will be evaluated according to the main rules set in the Articles of Association and the Accounting Policy of the Management Company. Valuation of individual assets held by the Company shall be performed by the independant appraiser, however such valuation of assets shall be only determining the value of the assets, which does not automatically mean the exact sale price of an investment held by the Company, which depends on many circumstances, for example, economic and other conditions, which cannot be controlled. Thus, the sale price of investments held by the Company can be higher or lower than the value of assets determined by a property appraiser.
The Company, investing into investment objects, will compete with other investors, including, without limitation, with other investment companies or real estate investment funds. Thus, there is a risk that competition with other investors will demand that the Company would conduct transactions at less favourable conditions than it would be possible in other cases.
Acquisition of Shares entails the risk to incur losses due to unfavourable changes in the Share price in the market. A drop in the price of the Shares can be caused by negative changes in the value of assets and profitability of the Company, general share market trends in the region and in the world. Trade in Shares can depend on comments of financial brokers and analysts and announced independent analyses about the Company and its activities. If the analysts give an adverse opinion about prospects of the Shares, this can also have a negative effect on the price of Shares in the market. In assessing Shares, nonprofessional investors are advised to address intermediaries of public trading or other specialists in this field for help.
Though the Company has approved its dividend payment policy, payment of dividend to Shareholders is not guaranteed and will depend on profitability of activities, investments plans and the general financial situation.
It may be possible that in case an investor wants to urgently sell the Issuer's securities (especially a large number of them), demand for them on the exchange will not be sufficient. Therefore, sale of shares can take some more time or the investor may be forced to sell shares at a lower price. Analogous consequences could appear after the exclusion of the Company's Shares from the Secondary List of Nasdaq. Besides, in case of deterioration of the Company's financial situation, demand for the Shares of the Company and, at the same time, their price may decrease.
Information on the extent of risks and management of them is disclosed in the section 3 of explanatory notes of consolidated and company's financial statements in 2019.
In 2018 and during the reporting period the most important risk factor was Reliance on the administrator of the Company's property. A description of the risk factor and a brief commentary:
The Company transferred its asset management to its subsidiary UAB Proprietas on 1 January 2018. The transfer of property administration was smooth, the real estate managers team of Proprietas was finalized in 2018. Whereas in 2019 the real estate managers team was strengthened.
On 2 January 2013 the Company has entered into an agreement with a third party for property management and administration services on part of Company's asset portfolio. An agreement was terminated on 1 January 2018, after the Company's subsidiary Proprietas, UAB and the Company signed a property management and administration agreement. The detailed list of buildings, administered, based on this agreement is provided in Section 2.3. of the Company's consolidated annual report "Information about the Issuer's group of companies". Under this agreement the third party, as an administrator of the property, is committed to increase Company's value and maintain high quality of service for buildings' tenants and employees. In case of change in administrative prices in the market, new contracts under less favourable conditions can be entered into with administrator, which may directly influence the increase in Company's costs.
The Audit Committee supervises preparation of the consolidated financial statements. systems of internal control and financial risk management and how the company follows legal acts that regulate preparation of consolidated financial statements.
The Management company of INVL Baltic Real Estate is responsible for the supervision and final review of the consolidated financial statements. To order to manage these functions properly, the Management company is using an external provider of relevant services. Management company, together with the accounting service provider constantly reviews International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in order to implement in time IFRS changes, analyses company's and group's significant deals, ensures collecting information from the group's companies and timely and fair preparation of this information for the financial statements, periodically informs the Board of the Management company about the preparation process of financial statements.
Accounting of all the Company Group's entities is provided by the same external accounting service provider (Invalda INVL AB) by using the unified accounting system, the standard chart of accounts and by applying unified accounting principles. Standardized data collection files prepared by Excel program are used for preparation of consolidated numbers. It also facilitates the automatic reconciliation and elimination of balances and transactions between subsidiaries in the preparation of consolidated accounts.
