NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1 General information

INVL Technology UTIB (company code 300893533, hereinafter "the Company") is a closed-ended type investment company registered in the Republic of Lithuania. The Company's registered office address is Gynėjų g. 14, Vilnius, Lithuania.

On 14 July 2016 the Company has been issued a closed-ended type investment company (UTIB) license by the Bank of Lithuania. Under the company's Articles of Association, INVL Technology UTIB will operate until 14 July 2026, with extension possible for further two years.

INVL Technology strategy is to invest in national-level European IT businesses with high globalisation potential and grow them into global players by utilizing the sales channels and intellectual capital of the managed companies.

Based on the Management Company's INVL Asset Management Board decision the Investment Committee was formed in order to ensure efficiency and control of investments. The Investment Committee consists of 4 (four) 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). The purpose of the Investment Committee is to ensure the Managed Company's objectives, its investment strategy and the adoption of prudent decisions for the investment and management of the Managed Company's assets, to supervise the adopted decisions. On 2017 April the Company has formed an Advisory Committee. The purpose of the Advisory Committee is to provide the Investment Committee with reasoned and fact-based opinions as a way to express an independent position regarding investment decisions, thereby ensuring and protecting shareholders' interests. The Advisory Committee consists of four members who are appointed and removed by the Board of the Managing Company.

The Company operates as a cluster of IT businesses working with large corporate and public entities. The classification of companies into 4 areas of activity, as used previously, from the beginning of 2018 is replaced by 3 new functional groups: business climate improvement and e-government, IT services and software, and cyber security. NRD companies continue to belong to the business climate improvement and e-government group, the cyber security group covers NRD CS UAB and other potential acquisitions in this area, whereas the IT services and software group is formed by joining the areas of IT infrastructure and IT intensive industries' solutions. At the end of the first half of 2018 INVL Technology portfolio consists of 15 operating companies. The major investments of INVL Technology are currently in businesses based in Lithuania, Estonia, Norway, Moldova, Tanzania, Rwanda, Uganda and Bangladesh.

The Company has an agreement on depository services with SEB Bankas which acts as the depository of the Company's assets.

The Management Company manages the portfolio of investment instruments of the Company following principles of diversification set in the Articles of Association (the conformity of the portfolio of investment instruments of the Company to those principles shall be achieved within four years from the date the Bank of Lithuania issued a permission to certify Company's incorporation documents and to choose the Depository). The Company cannot invest more than 30% of net asset value of the Company into any single issuer of the instrument. The indicator may be exceeded up to 4 years after the date the Company became a closed-ended investment company. More detailed requirements are lined out in the Articles of Association of the Company.

2 Basis of preparation and accounting policies

Interim condensed financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2018 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. These interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2017.

Except for the points, described below, Interim condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with the accounting principles adopted for 2017 annual financial statements.

Statement of compliance

The Company meets the definition criteria of an investment entity under IFRS 10. The Company has no subsidiaries that provide services related to the Company's investment activities – therefore no subsidiaries to be consolidated – therefore the Company does not prepare consolidated financial statements.

The financial statements are presented in EUR thousands, and all the amounts have been rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise stated.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 3. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current circumstances, events or actions, actual results may ultimately differ from these estimates.

Standards and amendments endorsed by the EU that are effective for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2018

Disclosure Initiative - Amendments to IAS 7

The amended IAS 7 require disclosure of a reconciliation of movements in liabilities arising from financing activities. Reconciliation of movement in liabilities arising from financing activities is presented in Note 8.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018) Key features of the new standard are:

• Financial assets are required to be classified into three measurement categories: those to be measured subsequently at amortised cost, those to be measured subsequently at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) and those to be measured subsequently at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL).

• Classification for debt instruments is driven by the entity's business model for managing the financial assets and whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI). If a debt instrument is held to collect, it may be carried at amortised cost if it also meets the SPPI requirement. Debt instruments that meet the SPPI requirement that are held in a portfolio where an entity both holds to collect assets' cash flows and sells assets may be classified as FVOCI. Financial assets that do not contain cash flows that are SPPI must be measured at FVPL (for example, derivatives). Embedded derivatives are no longer separated from financial assets but will be included in assessing the SPPI condition.

• Investments in equity instruments are always measured at fair value. However, management can make an irrevocable election to present changes in fair value in other comprehensive income, provided the instrument is not held for trading. If the equity instrument is held for trading, changes in fair value are presented in profit or loss.

• Impairment of credit risk bearing financial assets is calculated based on expected credit loss model, taking into account the forward looking information.

IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018) The new standard introduces the core principle that revenue must be recognised when the goods or services are transferred to the customer, at the transaction price. Any bundled goods or services that are distinct must be separately recognised, and any discounts or rebates on the contract price must generally be allocated to the separate elements. When the consideration varies for any reason, minimum amounts must be recognised if they are not at significant risk of reversal. Costs incurred to secure contracts with customers have to be capitalised and amortised over the period when the benefits of the contract are consumed.

The amendments do not change the underlying principles of the standard but clarify how those principles should be applied. The amendments clarify how to identify a performance obligation (the promise to transfer a good or a service to a customer) in a contract; how to determine whether a company is a principal (the provider of a good or service) or an agent (responsible for arranging for the good or service to be provided); and how to determine whether the revenue from granting a licence should be

recognised at a point in time or over time. In addition to the clarifications, the amendments include two additional reliefs to reduce cost and complexity for a company when it first applies the new standard.

The Company accounts for its investments at fair value under IFRS 10 and does not expect significant impact of the adoption of IFRS 9 for its financial assets. The Company, after transformation to closed-end investment company (Note 1) will be liable to account for success fee if certain threshold is met. The Company measures such liability at fair value and with application of IFRS 9 the Company will be required to present the effects of changes in own credit risk of financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss in other comprehensive income.

The standards and amendments endorsed by the EU that are effective for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2018 had no significant impact on the Company's financial statements and operation results.

Standards endorsed by the EU that are not yet effective and that have not been early adopted by the Company

There are no new or revised standards or interpretations that are not yet effective that would be expected to have a material impact to the Company.

3 Accounting estimates and judgements

3.1 Judgements

In the process of applying the Company's accounting policies, management has made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in these financial statements:

Investment entity status

The management periodically reviews whether the Company meets all the definition criteria of an investment entity referred to in Note 2. In addition, the management assesses the Company's business objective (Note 1), investment strategy, origin of income and fair value valuation techniques. According to the management, the Company met all the definition criteria of an investment entity throughout all the periods presented in these financial statements.

Recognition of the Success fee and the Management Fee

The Company elected to use fair value model for the recognition of the success fee and the management fee portion payable upon first payment of the success fee. Payment of the success fee is subject to the future events and involves the use of valuation techniques and unobservable Level 3 inputs, such as long term growth rates, discount rates for the estimation of the current value of financial liability which are reviewed periodically to ensure reliability. Details of the inputs and valuation models used to determine Level 3 fair value are provided in Note 4.

3.2 Accounting estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

The significant areas of estimation used in the preparation of these financial statements is discussed below.

Fair value of investments that are not traded in an active market

Fair values of investments in subsidiaries that are not traded in an active market are determined by using valuation techniques, primarily earnings multiples, discounted cash flows and recent comparable transactions. The valuation techniques used to determine fair values are periodically reviewed and compared against historical results to ensure their reliability. Details of the inputs and valuation models used to determine Level 3 fair value are provided in Note 4.

4 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly;

Level 3: techniques which use inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.

The Company's financial assets at fair value through profit or loss included assets attributed to Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company has no Level 1 or Level 2 instruments.

The Company conducts an independent valuation of its investments in subsidiaries when preparing the annual financial statements. As at 31 December 2017, the valuation was carried out by Deloitte Verslo Konsultacijos UAB using the income approach. In the opinion of the management, the fair value of investments was determined appropriately using the inputs and ratios properly selected and reasonably reflecting the investments. The fair value of investments was determined in compliance with the International Valuation Standards approved by the International Valuation Standards Council. For the income approach, the discounted cash flow method was used. It was based on free cash flow forecasts made by management for the period of 5 years. Free cash flows were calculated as net operating profit after tax plus depreciation and minus change in working capital and capital expenditure.

As at 30 June 2018

As market conditions and other preconditions used in the valuation did not change significantly during the first six months of 2018, when preparing preliminary operating results for the six months of 2018, the Company measured the fair value of investments using the values determined as at 31 December 2017 adjusted by the net profit or loss of its investments and declared dividends to the Company that occurred during the period. Investments in entities acquired/established during 2018 were stated at cost.

The fair values of the Company's unconsolidated subsidiaries were as follows:

Fintime UAB 274 Net assets value N/A N/A N/A N/A

The fair value was based on discounted cash flow method, which was selected by the external valuator as the best representation of the company specific development potential, except for FINtime UAB, where net assets value method was used. Different method was selected as because as of current moment the entity does not expect to generate significant free cash flows. Sensitivity is not appliable as no variable inputs were used. Due to the limited number of comparable companies and transactions, lack of reliability of the market data and limited comparability of peers, the results of the guideline public companies and transaction methods were used as a supplementary analysis and were provided only for illustrative purposes in valuation report.

Cash flow projections made by Company management for the period of 5 years (2018-2022) were used as a basis in the income method. Free cash flows were calculated as operating profit after tax plus depreciation/amortisation of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, plus or minus changes in working capital and minus capital expenditure. The resulting value was adjusted by discount for lack of marketability and the amount of surplus assets/liabilities. As part of the valuation process, valuator had analysed items presented on the balance sheet of each company and had identified assets and liabilities, which can be treated as surplus assets (e.g. net working capital above normalised level, non-operating cash balances, loans to related parties) and debt/debt like items; all of which were adjusted when arriving at equity value of the company.

In the opinion of the management, the fair value was determined appropriately using the inputs and ratios properly selected and reasonably reflecting the investments.

20 Financial risk management

20.1 Financial risk factors

The risk management function within the Company is carried out by the Management Company in respect of financial risks (credit, liquidity, market, foreign exchange and interest rate risks), operational risk and legal risk. The primary objective of the financial risk management function is to establish the risk limits, and then make sure that exposure to risks stays within these limits. The operational and legal risk management functions are intended to ensure proper functioning of the internal policies and procedures necessary to mitigate the operational and legal risks.

The Company's financial liabilities consisted of trade and other payables. The Company has various categories of financial assets, however, the major items of its financial assets were financial assets at fair value through profit loss consisting of the investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and cash and cash equivalents received.

The Company is being managed in a way that its portfolio companies are operating independently from each other. This helps to diversify the operational risk and to create conditions for selling any controlled business without exposing the Company to any risks.

The Company's business objective is to achieve medium to long-term return on investments in carefully selected unlisted private companies operating in information technology sector. The goal of the Company is to increase the value of its investments with the purpose to sell the investments at the end of their life (Note 1) earning adequate return for the shareholders and success fee if applicable.

The main risks arising from the financial instruments are market risk (including foreign exchange risk, cash flow and fair value interest rate risk and price risk), liquidity risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. The risks are described below.

Credit risk

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, outstanding balances of trade and other receivables, and outstanding balances of loans granted.

With respect to trade and other receivables neither past due nor impaired, there were no indications as at the reporting date that the debtors will fail to fulfil their liabilities in due time, since the Company constantly reviews the balances of receivables. The Company has no significant transactions in a country other than the countries of domicile of the subsidiaries and their investments. All receivables of the Company are from subsidiaries, and their settlement terms are set by the Company itself.

With respect to credit risk arising from other financial assets of the Company (consisting of cash and cash equivalents), the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counterparty. The maximum exposure to credit risk was equal to the carrying amount of these instruments:

Assets with no credit rating assigned At 30 June 2018 At 31 December 2017
Trade and other receivables - -
Loans granted, interest 51 39
Cash and cash equivalents 2,579 5,030
Total current assets 2,810 5,069

The Company accepts the services from the banks and the financial institutions which (or the controlling financial institutions of which) have been assigned a high credit rating by an independent rating agency. As at 30 June 2018 the Company's cash balances were held in the financial institutions which have not been assigned individual credit ratings, but the controlling financial institutions of which have been assigned "Prime-1" rating by Moody's agency.

Interest rate risk

As at 30 June 2018 the Company did not have borrowings, therefore it had no interest rate risk.

Price risk

The Company's investments are susceptible to price risk arising from uncertainties about future values of the investments that are not traded in an active market. To manage the price risk, the Investment committee reviews the performance of the portfolio companies at least on a quarterly basis, and keep regular contact with the management of the portfolio companies for business development and day-to-day operation matters.

As at 30 June 2018, the fair value of the Company's investments exposed to price risk was EUR 19,665 thousand (31 December 2017: EUR 20,808 thousand).

Liquidity risk

The Company's policy is to maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents or have available funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet its commitments at a given date in accordance with the strategic plans.

Liquidity risk of the Company is managed by the Management company. The liquidity risk management is divided into long-term and short-term risk management.

The aim of the short-term liquidity risk management is to meet the day-to-day needs for funds. Each subsidiary is independently planning its internal cash flows. Short-term liquidity of the Company is managed through monthly monitoring of the liquidity status at the Company.

Long-term liquidity risk is managed by analysing the cash flow projections by taking into account the potential sources of financing. Before approving a new investment project, the Company evaluates the possibilities to attract the required funding. Based on monthly reports, the Company makes projections of monetary income and expenses over the next one year, thereby ensuring an effective planning of the Company's funding.

The Company's financial liabilities based on undiscounted contractual payments consisted of:

Up to 3 Over 5
months 4 - 12 months 2 to 5 years years Total
Loans to credit institutions with interest - - - - -
Other current liabilities 109 - - - 109
At 30 June 2018 109 - - - 109
Loans to credit institutions with interest 17 292 1,810 - 2,119
Other current liabilities 112 - - - 112
At 31 December 2017 129 292 1,810 - 2,231

The company has no liquidity problems and there are no expectations that they will arise in the foreseeable future. Foreign exchange risk

The Company has no material exposures or transactions in currencies other than euro, therefore it is not exposed to foreign currency risk.

20.2 Fair value estimation

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company carries investments in subsidiaries at fair value, please refer to Note 4 for more details.

The Company's principal financial instruments that are not carried at fair value in the statement of financial position are cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, as well as trade and other payables.

The carrying amount of the cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, as well as trade and other payables of the Company as at 30 June 2018 approximated their fair value because they are short-term and the impact of discounting is immaterial.

20.3 Capital management

The Company's primary objective when managing capital is to safeguard that the Company will be able to maintain a strong credit health and healthy capital ratios in order to support its business and maximise returns for shareholders. The Company's capital management is conducted through supervision of activities of individual subsidiaries to ensure that their capital is sufficient to continue as a going concern. Management of entities oversee to ensure that the subsidiaries are in compliance with the capital requirements defined in relevant legal acts and loan contracts, and that they provide the Company's management with the necessary information.

The Company's capital comprises share capital, share premium, reserves and retained earnings. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and risks specific to its activity. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, reduce share capital, and adjust the dividend payment to shareholders.

During 2018, no changes were introduced in the objectives of capital management, policies or processes.

The Company is obliged to keep its equity ratio at not less than 50 % of its share capital, as imposed by the Lithuanian Law on Companies. As at 30 June 2018 the Company complied with this requirement.

Foreword of the Managing Partner of INVL Technology

We are pleased with considerable growth of the managed companies during the first half of the year – most companies increased both their income and EBITDA.

Kazimieras Tonkūnas INVL Technology Managing Partner

In 2018, INVL Technology is consolidating the managed companies, looking for new investments, supporting product development and globalisation of the managed companies.

Instead of previously used classification of the managed companies into four areas of activity we are creating three groups of companies that complement each other. Bigger groups of companies will be more attractive for investors in the long run.

INVL Technology is also further exploring new investment possibilities in the Baltics and the Nordics. We expect to make a new acquisition in 2018 or at the beginning of 2019. Newly acquired companies will enhance and strengthen the three groups of companies.

We are also devoting attention to transformation of the managed companies' services – we support new product development as well as commercialisation and sales of already developed products.

Moreover, we are encouraging the companies to take advantage of the collaboration possibilities – to utilise their resources more effectively, share and take over the best-practices, use sales channels in foreign markets and increase their capacity for international operations. For example, in order to align and unite the efforts of the companies for expansion in the Nordics, a Novian cluster, representing the IT services and software group, was introduced.

We are pleased with considerable growth of the managed companies during the first half of the year – most companies increased both their income and EBITDA. At NRD Companies, good results by all key performance indicators were demonstrated by NRD UAB and Etronika UAB, which signed agreements with new banks and other clients in the Baltics. In the IT infrastructure and programming group, growth was demonstrated by Algoritmu sistemos, which signed the first contract in Bangladesh, as well as the company currently under reorganisation – Andemevara, which began to receive significant income from the Moldovan market. Cyber security company NRD CS also continues growing rapidly – in the 6 months of 2018, the company more than doubled its income.

General income growth of the managed companies, their increased capacity and newly signed agreements allow us to expect growth in value of the companies in 2018.

Rapid global economic growth was driven by more intensive international trade, higher investment, and improved expectations of households and businesses in 2017. In most countries, the development of investment, export and household consumption contributed to significant growth. According to the IMF estimates published in April 2018, the growth of global GDP should continue to be strong this and the next year and stand at 3.9%.

Lithuania's economic growth remains robust. However, compared with the first half of last year, the drivers of growth have slightly changed. Having been the main driver of economic development until the middle of last year, household consumption growth has moderated. Nevertheless, the Lithuanian economy continues to grow at strong pace, on the back of favourable external demand, which is driving growth of exports, and higher investment.

The three Baltic countries have similar development and share the same economic and ICT trends. The ICT sector is mainly driven by strong investments from the government and EU financing programs, thanks to the quick access to the Western European market. However, the private sector provides the demand for new technology, especially in large companies. The total estimated market size for the Baltic countries is 3.6 billion EUR. At present Estonia represents around 26% of the ICT Baltic market, Latvia 34% and Lithuania 40%. Regarding IT export activity, Estonia seems to be the most focused on external relationships; an average Estonian company exports 33% of its IT services. Latvia's average export rate is 22%, while Lithuanian companies are much more domestically oriented, exporting only around 13% of their IT services. Hardware sales account for more than half (approximately 60%) of the total IT Baltic market; software sales and IT services represent 15% and 25% respectively.

E-business and e-commerce solutions are also one of the main current challenges for Baltic companies. Lithuania has the most advanced telecommunications infrastructure in the region (EDGE technology, 3G+ mobile advanced communications infrastructure). It also has a very high mobile communications penetration rate. Sixty percent of the largest ICT service companies are based in Lithuania.
