Overall Company and Group
materiality
Overall materiality applied to the Company and the Group
amounted to € 295 thousand and € 359 thousand (2016: €256
thousand and $\epsilon$ 304 thousand), respectively.
How we determined it 1% 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 1%, which is within the range of acceptable
quantitative materiality thresholds.
Key audit matter How our audit addressed the
matter
Valuation of investment properties
Refer to Notes 2.22 and 11 to the financial Our procedures in relation to
statements on pages 33 and 55, respectively.

CONSOLIDATED AND COMPANY'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)

Notes to the financial statements

1 General information

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-end 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 shall be formed by a decision of the Board of the Management Company. The Investment Committee shall consist 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) shall be 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 2017 and 2016 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.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in preparing the Group's and the Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017 are as follows:

2.1. Basis of preparation

Statement of compliance

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.

Adoption of new and/or changed IFRSs and IFRIC interpretations

The Group has adopted the new and amended IFRS and IFRIC interpretations as of 1 January 2017:

  • − Amendments to IAS 7: Disclosure Initiative effective 1 January 2017;
  • − Amendments to IAS 12 Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses effective 1 January 2017;
  • − Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle (changes to IFRS 12) effective 1 January 2017.

The principal effects of these changes are as follows:

Amendments to IAS 7: Disclosure Initiative

The amended IAS 7 will require disclosure of a reconciliation of movements in liabilities arising from financing activities. The amendments did not have any impact on the Group's financial position or performance, but the additional disclosures were added in Note 18.

All other amendments adopted as of 1 January 2017 had no impact on the Group's/Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017.

2.1 Basis of preparation (cont'd)

Standards adopted by the EU but not yet effective and have not been early adopted

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.
  • − Most of the requirements in IAS 39 for classification and measurement of financial liabilities were carried forward unchanged to IFRS 9. The key change is that an entity will be required to present the effects of changes in own credit risk of financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss in other comprehensive income.
  • − IFRS 9 introduces a new model for the recognition of impairment losses the expected credit losses (ECL) model. There is a 'three stage' approach which is based on the change in credit quality of financial assets since initial recognition. In practice, the new rules mean that entities will have to record an immediate loss equal to the 12-month ECL on initial recognition of financial assets that are not credit impaired (or lifetime ECL for trade receivables). Where there has been a significant increase in credit risk, impairment is measured using lifetime ECL rather than 12-month ECL. The model includes operational simplifications for lease and trade receivables.
  • − Hedge accounting requirements were amended to align accounting more closely with risk management. The standard provides entities with an accounting policy choice between applying the hedge accounting requirements of IFRS 9 and continuing to apply IAS 39 to all hedges because the standard currently does not address accounting for macro hedging.

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 must be measured at fair value through profit or loss. Before adopting of IFRS 9 the Company has attributed investment into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries to 'Assets at fair value through profit or loss' and measured them also at fair value through profit or loss. The Group and the Company have other financial assets attributed to the categories of financial assets 'Loans and receivables', which according to new standard would be measured at amortised cost as before as the business model for these assets is held to collect contractual cash flows and they are SPPI. The Group and the Company have only financial liabilities attributed to the category 'Other financial liabilities'. Therefore, there will be no impact on the Group's and the Company's accounting for financial liabilities. The changes in hedge accounting will not have impact on the Group's and the Company's financial statements as the Group and the Company have no hedge accounting. The new impairment model requires the recognition of impairment provisions based on ECL rather than only incurred credit losses as is the case under IAS 39. It applies to financial assets classified at amortised cost, contract assets under IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, lease receivables. Based on the assessments undertaken to date, it may result in an earlier recognition of credit losses in future, but at the date of initial application the Group/ Company assessed that there will be no significant impact on allowance of trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents and deposits. Therefore, there will be no material impact on the Group's/Company's financial position or performance due to application of IFRS 9. The new standard also introduces expanded disclosure requirements and changes in presentation. These are expected to change the nature and extent of the Group's and the Company's disclosures of their financial instruments, particularly in the year of the adoption of the new standard – in 2018. The Group/the Company will apply the new rules retrospectively from 1 January 2018, with the practical expedients permitted under the standard. Comparatives for 2017 will not be restated.

CONSOLIDATED AND COMPANY'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (cont'd)

2.1 Basis of preparation (cont'd)

Standards adopted by the EU but not yet effective and have not been early adopted (cont'd)

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018) Amendments to 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 Group and the Company is expected that the impact of the standard on its financial statements would be non-material, because the main revenue of the Group is rental income.

IFRS 16 Leases (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 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. 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 are currently assessing the impact of the standard on their financial statements, but are not expecting that impact would be material, except that the Group and the Company would have to recognise asset and liability for the lease agreement of 10 August 2007 (Note 7). In the statement of comprehensive income depreciation of lease asset and interest on lease liability would replace currently recognised lease expenses. The Group and the Company do not intend to adopt IFRS 16 before its mandatory date.

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.

Standards not yet adopted by the EU

Amendments to IAS 40 Transfers of Investment Property (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 once adopted by the EU)

The amendment clarified that to transfer to, or from, investment properties there must be a change in use. This change must be supported by evidence; a change in intention, in isolation, is not enough to support a transfer. The Group and the Company are currently assessing the impact of the amendments on their financial statements, but are not expecting that impact would be material.

Standards not yet adopted by the EU (cont'd)

IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 once adopted by the EU)

IAS 12 specifies how to account for current and deferred tax, but not how to reflect the effects of uncertainty. The interpretation clarifies how to apply the recognition and measurement requirements in IAS 12 when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. An entity should determine whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain tax treatments based on which approach better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty. An entity should assume that a taxation authority will examine amounts it has a right to examine and have full knowledge of all related information when making those examinations. If an entity concludes it is not probable that the taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment, the effect of uncertainty will be reflected in determining the related taxable profit or loss, tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits or tax rates, by using either the most likely amount or the expected value, depending on which method the entity expects to better predict the resolution of the uncertainty. An entity will reflect the effect of a change in facts and circumstances or of new information that affects the judgments or estimates required by the interpretation as a change in accounting estimate. Examples of changes in facts and circumstances or new information that can result in the reassessment of a judgment or estimate include, but are not limited to, examinations or actions by a taxation authority, changes in rules established by a taxation authority or the expiry of a taxation authority's right to examine or re-examine a tax treatment. The absence of agreement or disagreement by a taxation authority with a tax treatment, in isolation, is unlikely to constitute a change in facts and circumstances or new information that affects the judgments and estimates required by the Interpretation. The Group and the Company is currently assessing the impact of the interpretation on their financial statements.

Other amendments to existing standards and new standards, which are not yet adopted by the EU, are not relevant to the Group and the Company.

2.2. Basis of consolidation

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.

2.3. Functional and presentation currency

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.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (cont'd)

2.4. Business combinations and goodwill

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.

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.

2.5. Property, plant and equipment

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.

2.6. Investment properties

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. The operating lease is accounted for as if it were a finance lease at the present value of the minimum lease payments with the exception of future land rent tax payments to municipality that are effectively a replacement of land tax, paid by the owner of land.

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.

2.7. Intangible assets other than goodwill

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.

2.8. Investments into subsidiaries (the Company)

Since the merger with the Former Parent Company, investments into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries are classified as financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss at inception, because:

  • they are managed together and their performance is evaluated on a combined fair value basis in accordance with the Company's documented investment strategy; and
  • information about the Group is provided internally on combined basis to the Management Company and the Investment Committee.

Subsequent to initial recognition, investments into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries are measured at fair value. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the 'financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss' category are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within 'Net changes in fair value of investments into subsidiaries designated at fair value through profit or loss"' in the period in which they arise.

Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within dividend income when the Company's right to receive payments is established. Interest on loans granted at fair value through profit or loss is not recognised separately in the statement of comprehensive income, only fair value changes are recognised within gains or losses on fair value of loans granted.

When the fair value of investments into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries is determined (and unrecognised part of 'day 1 profit' is deducted), the value is split into legal components, i.e. between debt and equity instruments. If the amortised cost of loans granted to a subsidiary exceeds the total fair value of investment in that subsidiary, the fair value is fully attributed to loans. The remaining value is attributed to equity instruments of the subsidiary.

Investments in subsidiaries existing before merger are carried as investments available-for-sale. These investments are carried at fair value. Changes in the fair value and exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in a separate reserve within equity. Amounts are reclassified to profit or loss when the associated assets are sold or impaired.

2.9. Financial assets

Financial assets within the scope of IAS 39 are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held to maturity investments, available-for-sale financial assets, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of financial asset or financial liability not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. 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.

The Group and the Company determine the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or the Group/Company transfers substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Judgment is required in assessing whether a change in the contractual terms (such as a change in the remaining term of the loan) is substantial enough to represent an expiry of the original instrument (or a part thereof).

The Group's financial assets consist of loans and receivables. The Company's financial assets consist of loans and receivables, and of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (Note 2.8).

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (cont'd)

2.9 Financial assets (cont'd)

Loans and receivables

Financial assets recognised in the statement of financial position as trade and other receivables, deposits and cash and cash equivalents are classified as loans and receivables. Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial measurement loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method less any allowance for impairment. Amortised cost is calculated taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and includes fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate and transaction costs. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through amortisation process. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. These are classified as non-current assets.

2.10. Impairment of financial assets

Assets carried at amortised cost

The Group/Company assesses at each reporting date whether is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a 'loss event') and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.

The Group/Company assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation, and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults. When financial asset is assessed as uncollectible the impaired asset is derecognised.

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables carried at amortised cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future expected credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). If a loan has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through use of an allowance account. The amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed. The Group/Company recalculates the carrying amount by computing the present value of estimated future cash flows at the financial instrument's original effective interest rate, any subsequent reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss, to the extent that the carrying value of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date.

2.11. Cash and cash equivalents

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.

2.12. Performance Fee and Management Fee

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.

2.13. Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities within the scope of IAS 39 are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, other financial liabilities, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The Group/Company determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of other financial liabilities, net of directly attributable transaction costs. All financial liabilities of the Company and the Group are classified as other financial liabilities. The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification as follows:

Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company and the Group prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. 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). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Borrowings

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings 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.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (cont'd)

2.14. Provisions

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.

Provisions for onerous contracts

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.

Provisions for the Performance Fee

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.

2.15. Share capital

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.

2.16. Leases

Group and Company are the lessor in an operating lease

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.

Group and Company are the lessee in an operating lease

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.

2.17. Revenue recognition

The Group/Company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and when specific criteria have been met for each of the Group's/Company's activities as described below. The group bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, excluding discounts, rebates, and other sales taxes or duty. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Rental income

Rental income arising from operating leases on investment properties is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. When the Group/Company provides incentives to its tenants, the cost of incentives is recognised over the lease term, on a straightline basis, as a reduction of rental income.

Utilities and other services income

Utilities and other services income are recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered.

Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. When a loan and receivable is impaired, the Group/Company reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loan and receivables is recognised using the original effective interest rate.

2.18. Segment reporting

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.

2.19. Borrowing costs

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.

2.20. Current and deferred income tax

Following the provisions of the Lithuanian Law on Corporate Income Tax, investment income of closed-end investment companies operating in accordance with the Lithuanian Law on Collective Investment Undertakings shall not be 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 and in Latvia was 15 % in 2016 and 2017. 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.

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 would be not taxed. Corporate income tax would be paid on distributed profit, including conditional distributed profit as for example: expenditure not related to economic activities, some loans granted to related parties, some provisions for doubtful debts. The tax rate on (net) distributed profit would be 20/80. From 1 January 2018 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.

2.21. Employee benefits

Social security contributions

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.

Bonus plans

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.

2.22. Significant accounting judgements and estimates

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.

Judgements

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:

Financial assets designated at fair value through profit and loss on initial recognition

Investments in subsidiaries are designated at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition in the stand-alone financial statements of the Company, because the management believes that this presentation represents best the way these investments are managed and their performance is evaluated and provides more relevant information to the users of financial statements.

The Group acts as principal in relation to utility services

The management has concluded that the Company acts as a principal in relation to utility services. The Company has latitude in establishing prices, earns a margin as well bears the customer's credit risk for the amounts receivable from the customer.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (cont'd)

2.22 Significant accounting judgements and estimates (cont'd)

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 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

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.

The fair value of the investment properties of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2017 was EUR 56,341 thousand and EUR 47,833 thousand, respectively (as at 31 December 2016 – EUR 52,410 thousand and EUR 43,964 thousand, respectively) (described in more details in Note 11).

Fair value of investments into subsidiaries in stand-alone financial statements

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 2017 was EUR 5,881 thousand (as at 31 December 2016 – EUR 5,289 thousand) (described in more details in Note 5).

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (cont'd)

2.22 Significant accounting judgements and estimates (cont'd)

Estimates and assumptions (cont'd)

The provision for onerous lease

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.

The provision for onerous lease was EUR 181 thousand as at 31 December 2017 (as at 31 December 2016 – EUR 272 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 26 thousand higher/lower as at 31 December 2017 (as at 31 December 2016 – EUR 34 thousand).

The provision for the Performance Fee

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. As at 31 December 2017, it was calculated according to the Articles of Association of the Company as an amount equal to 20% of return in excess of the annual internal rate of return of 8% for period from 30 November 2016 till 31 December 2017. For this period internal rate of return based on net assets value of the Company is amounted to 27.46%. As at 31 December 2016, it was calculated according to the Articles of Association of the Company as an amount equal to 20% of return in excess of the annual internal rate of return of 8% for December 2016 (i.e. the first period with a status of a closedend investment company, internal rate of return based on net assets value of the Company is amounted to 439.57%). The provision was estimated as a most likely outcome. The provision is calculated on the basis of the net assets value of the Company, which are amounted 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. As at 31 December 2017 the part of the Performance Fee became payable as internal rate of return for period from 30 November 2016 till 31 December 2017 based on the capitalisation of the Company amounted to 14.50% and exceeded 8%. Because the capitalisation of the Company was less than net assets value of the Company as at 31 December 2017, the initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return for next period would be capitalisation of the Company as at 31 December 2017.

The provision for the Performance Fee was EUR 777 thousand as at 31 December 2017 after deducting the payable part of the Performance Fee of EUR 386 thousand recognised within other current liabilities. The provision for the Performance Fee was EUR 814 thousand as at 31 December 2016 (Note 7).

3 Financial risk management

3.1. Financial risk factors

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.

3 Financial risk management (cont'd)

3.1 Financial risk factors (cont'd)

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

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.

At the date of financial statements there are no indications of worsening credit quality of trade and other receivables and loans granted, which are neither past due, nor impaired, due to constant control by the Group/Company of loans and receivable balances. The maximum exposure to credit risk of trade and other receivables is disclosed in Note 15. 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). There are no transactions of the Group or the Company that occur outside Lithuania and Latvia.

The Company had an agreement with external entity, which provided property management services to the Company in Lithuania. The rent income and related revenues from the Company's owned properties in Lithuania, except newly acquired investment property located at Gynėjų str. 14 and three tenants in other properties, were collected through this entity, which issues the invoices for rent and related services to tenants at the end of each month. Therefore, the Group/Company had significant concentration of credit risk with respect to this entity. This third party accounts for approximately 59% and 55% of the total Group's trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2017 and 2016, respectively. This third party accounts for approximately 60% and 56% of the total Company's trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2017 and 2016, respectively.

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 provisions of the borrowing agreement deposit is placed on the ABLV Bank, AS in Latvia (Note 18), which is not rated.

According to the European deposit insurance scheme, cash, cash equivalents and deposits of up to EUR 100 thousand in each bank are covered with insurance, except for the Company's cash and cash equivalents, because the Company is a collective investment undertaking. The insured amounts of cash, cash equivalents and deposits placed on ABLV Bank AS accounts were exceeded by EUR 138 thousand and EUR 100 thousand as at 31 December 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The credit quality of cash and cash equivalents can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings of the banks:

3.1 Financial risk factors (cont'd)

Market risk

Cash flow and fair value interest rate 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 are 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.

As at 31 December 2017 and 2016 EURIBOR were negative and according to borrowings agreements was equalled to zero.

Foreign exchange risk

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.

Liquidity 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 short-term 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 including assets held for sale / total current liabilities) as at 31 December 2017 and 2016 was approximately 0.51 and 1.12, respectively. The Company's liquidity ratio as at 31 December 2017 and 2016 was approximately 0.42 and 1.13.

As at 31 December 2017 the current assets were lower than current liabilities by EUR 1,362 thousand in the Group and EUR 1,463 thousand in the Company. Management of the Group and the Company forecasted the cash flows of the Group and the Company for 2018 and the forecast indicates that the Group and the Company will have sufficient funds to cover liabilities, which fall due in 2018. Additionally, the Group and the Company has initiated negotiation with the bank regarding additional borrowing to refinance additional investments, which were made in 2017 and would be made in 2018 into owned investment properties. It was expected that additional borrowing would be received during March 2018.

3.2. Capital management

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 2017 and 2016, except for two subsidiaries in 2017 and in 2016. 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 2017 and 2016, 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 15 January 2016 the Company has approved dividend payment policy which stipulates the payment of dividends per share of no less than EUR 0.012 each year, if the legal and contractual requirements do not restrict this. 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 (Note 21) the minimum dividend per share will amount EUR 0.13.

4 Fair value estimation

Assets carried at fair value

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).

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 2016 and 2017.

There were no liabilities measured at fair value in the Group's and the Company's statements of financial position.

Financial instruments that are not carried at fair value

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 2017 and 2016 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 2017 and 2016 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 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 2017 and 2016 the Company has recognised EUR 203 thousand and EUR 202 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 2017 and as at 31 December 2016 unrecognised part of '1 day profit' was EUR 507 thousand and EUR 710 thousand, respectively. Therefore, the total fair value of loans granted by the Company was EUR 6,276 thousand and EUR 5,872 thousand as at 31 December 2017 and 2016, respectively (their carrying amount – EUR 5,769 thousand and EUR 5,162 thousand, respectively). It is Level 3 measurement.

6 Segment information

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:

  • Owned property in Lithuania. The reportable segment comprises four (until September 2017 five) operating segments on a property-by-property basis, which are aggregated. The operating segments have similar economic characteristics, because all owned premises are located in Vilnius, Lithuania. These are office buildings with some warehouse premises. Most of them have further development opportunities. All properties are multi-tenant. Corporate tenants dominate, but some premises are also leased to governmental and retail tenants.
  • Leasehold property. They are located in Vilnius and Kaunas, Lithuania. These are office buildings and warehouses. From 1 September 2017 the segment comprise of one investment property (office building) in Vilnius.
  • Owned property in Latvia. Revenue is earned from warehouse located in Riga, Latvia.

11 Investment properties (cont'd)

Investment properties of the Group are office buildings, warehouses and the entire building of old apartments. The majority of buildings and warehouses are leased out under the operating lease agreements and generate rental income.

The direct operating expenses arising from investment properties can be allocated as follows:

Group Company
2017 2016 2017 2016
To properties that generated rental income 1,434 1,304 1,415 1,255

On 29 January 2016 the Company completed the acquisition of investment properties located at Gynėjų str. 14, Vilnius, by settling outstanding payables (EUR 5,618 thousand excluding VAT). The final settlement was financed by additional borrowings from the related party AB Invalda INVL (EUR 800 thousand) and from AB Šiaulių bankas (EUR 4,500 thousand). During 1st Half Year of 2016 a reconstruction of this investment property was started to arrange premises for rent. In 2017 and 2016 the reconstruction expenses of EUR 2,339 thousand and EUR 288 thousand have incurred, respectively, and were capitalised and added to the acquisition cost of this investment property. In 2017 the reconstruction expenses of EUR 3 thousand and of EUR 203 thousand have incurred additionally for the investment properties in Latvia and in Vilnius, located at Palangos 4, respectively. As at 31 December 2017 outstanding payables for subsequent expenditure for investment properties amounted to EUR 352 thousand. In 2016 the Company obtained ownership of additional 11 parking spaces by paying for them EUR 228 thousand (excluding VAT).

In 2015 the Company signed preliminary agreement, according to which the constructed building foundation with leased land attributed to it would be sold for EUR 500 thousand plus the cost of building foundation. The Company has received in advance EUR 450 thousand from the buyer until 31 December 2015. In 2016 the Group and the Company additionally invested EUR 51 thousand into investment property located at Žygio str. 97, Vilnius, where the new building foundation was laid. The Company has paid EUR 256 thousand (including outstanding amount from 2015) for this construction in 2016. Therefore, the final sale price was EUR 756 thousand, which included land rent right to 0.15 hectare. Legal title was passed for land rent right to 0.28 hectares. If under the law requirements the Buyer will be required to retain the land rent right to additional up to 0.13 hectare, then the Buyer will have to pay an additional consideration of up to of EUR 433 thousand. The additional consideration was not recognised as income in the financial statements of the Group and the Company, because the management believed it was more likely that land rent right to 0.15 hectare would be sufficient for the Buyer. In 2016 the Group and the Company received from this sale EUR 306 thousand in cash.

On 26 July 2017 the Company had signed an agreement on the sale of 3,000 square metres of office and warehouse premises on Kirtimų Street in Vilnius. The value of the transaction was EUR 1,000 thousand plus VAT. On 5 September 2017 the ownership of property was transferred to the buyer after sale price was received. During 2016 the Company sold 6 parking spaces (that were acquired in 2016) to the subsidiary UAB Proprietas for EUR 51 thousand. EUR 47 thousand was received in cash, and the remaining amount was set off by increasing the share capital of the subsidiary.

11 Investment properties (cont'd)

Investment properties are measured at fair value. In 2017 and 2016, properties leased out by the entity and investment properties held for future redevelopment in Lithuania were valued on 31 October 2017 and 31 October 2016, 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 and by an accredited valuer UAB Newsec Valuations (hereinafter 'Newsec') using the income approach and market approach. In 2017 investment properties located in Latvia were valued in October 2017 by an accredited valuer SIA OBER-HAUS Vertešanas Serviss using a market approach for land and using an income approach for warehouse. As at 31 December 2016 investment properties located in Latvia were valued in August 2016 by an accredited valuer SIA OBER-HAUS Vertešanas Serviss and in September 2016 by SIA City Real Estate Company (hereinafter CRE) 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 year-end that could have an effect on the value of investment properties, therefore the updated valuation was not performed as at 31 December 2017 and 2016.

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.

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.

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.

II. FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

3 Overview of the Issuer and its group activity

3.1. COMMENT MADE BY INVL ASSET MANAGEMENT REAL ESTATE FUND MANAGER VYTAUTAS BAKŠINSKAS

The consolidated net operating income of INVL Baltic Real Estate received from own property amounted to EUR 2.68 million in 2017, i.e. 14 percent more than in 2016 (EUR 2.35 million). The consolidated income of INVL Baltic Real Estate amounted to EUR 6.20 million in 2017, i.e. 1.4 percent less than in 2016 (EUR 6.29 million), of which the consolidated rental income received from own property increased by 10.6 percent up to EUR 3.98 million.

The last year was a year of development for the company; after the successful attraction of tenants to the Vilnius Gates, its actual occupancy reached 92 percent at the end of the year, which would result in a significant increase in rental income in 2018. Moreover, we are successfully developing other objects managed by the company, among which the contract, regarding the rent of premises of nearly 1000 square meters of floor area in the center of Vilnius, on Palanga Street, concluded last year with TransferGo, i.e. one of the greatest Lithuanian startups, stands out. We believe in the future prospect of our managed real estate

portfolio which is based on good location – according to the value of the property, 80 percent of the managed objects are located in the central part of Vilnius.

Last year, the IBC Business Centre, which is the largest property managed by INVL Baltic Real Estate, continued not only to maintain a high level of occupancy but also to produce rental income, which increased by 1.3 percent compared to 2016 and amounted to EUR 1.88 million.

At the end of September 2017, the transaction on the sale of 3,000 square metres of office and warehouse premises on Kirtimų Street in Vilnius. The value of the transaction amounted to EUR 1 million. The property on Kirtimų Street was valued at EUR 0.8 million at the end of 2016, therefore, the impact of the transaction for the results of 2017 amounts to EUR 0.2 million.

Other property managed by INVL Baltic Real Estate was also characterized by a high level of occupancy of the premises and improved performance in 2017. We are pleased that our customers continue to be loyal and trust INVL Baltic Real Estate as a reliable and long-term partner, and we will make every effort to maintain our customers' confidence.

At the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting, held at the end of 2017, it was decided to increase the dividends, indicated in the Dividend Payment policy of INVL Baltic Real Estate, more than twice, i.e. from EUR 0.012 to EUR 0.026 per share. This was done seeking to boost the attractiveness of INVL Baltic Real Estate's shares. It was also decided to increase the nominal value of the company's shares by five times, i.e. up to EUR 1.45. Following the resolutions of the General Shareholders Meeting, due to the change of the nominal value per share, EUR 0.13 per share was allocated to dividend payment.

The shareholders' meeting approved the decision to reduce the management fee paid by INVL Baltic Real Estate to the management company INVL Asset Management from 1.5 to 1 percent. The possibility of reducing the management fee resulted from the fact that from the beginning of 2018, the company UAB Proprietas, managed by INVL Baltic Real Estate, took over the management of real estate owned by INVL Baltic Real Estate. Thus, the volume of services, for which INVL Baltic Real Estate was paying the management fee to the management company, has decreased.

It is also planned that in 2018 the share liquidity of INVL Baltic Real Estate will increase; at the end of 2017, Invalda INVL announced an intention to transfer up to 22 percent of the company's shares in 2018, thereby increasing the percentage of free float shares from 16 to 38 percent.

3.2. OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT

In 2017, Vilnius and Kaunas demonstrated the highest activity in the segment of business centers, where active construction of new business centers took place. Active development of business centers in these cities is also expected in the next 2 years. Meanwhile, the market for new business centers in Klaipeda remains weak. The conditions for the emergence of new business centers in Klaipeda are currently unfavorable, inasmuch as the vacancy rate of business centers in the port-city has already reached its highest level in comparison with the three largest cities of Lithuania.

During the year 2017, 10 new business centers were opened in the capital city, replenishing the market with the space of approximately 79,000 sq. m. Despite the fact that the rates of development are very high, the demand for modern business centers in the capital city has remained strong, as demonstrated by the fact that the market absorbed almost the entire new area. During the year 2017, the total vacancy rate of business centers in Vilnius increased from 4.8 to 5.4 percent. The increase in the vacancy rate of business centers was strongly influenced by the increase in vacant spaces in B1 and B2 class segments, where, at the end of the year, the non-rented space was 6.7 and 9.7 percent respectively. Meanwhile, at the end of the year, there were only 1.3 percent of vacant A class offices. In the next two years, the market of business centers in Vilnius will be replenished by the additional 130,000 sq. m. of leased space. Most likely, at least some of the new business centers will not be fully leased on the day of the opening; therefore, it is expected that the vacancy rate at the end of 2018 or at the beginning of 2019 may increase up to 7-9 percent or even more.

During the year 2017, 7 new business centers were opened in Kaunas, offering approximately 37,500 sq. m. of leased area to the market. At the end of the year, compared with the corresponding period in 2016, the vacant space indicator in Kaunas increased by almost 2 percent and amounted to 5.9 percent. The amount of vacant space declined in the B1 segment, which, at the end of the year, amounted to 2.4 percent. Meanwhile, the vacancy rate of B2 class segment increased up to 9.2 percent. In the next two years, the market of Kaunas business centers will be replenished by 60,000 sq. m. of leased space; therefore, the vacancy rate may increase to 8-12 percent at the end of 2018.

At the end of 2017, the total vacancy rate in the port-city reached 9.9 percent and decreased by 2 percent from the beginning of the year. In 2017, one business center replenished the market of Klaipeda, offering approximately 2,500 sq. m. of leased space to the market.

In 2017, the rental prices in Vilnius remained stable. The rapidly growing supply of leased space has increased competition between lessors and influenced a possible rise in prices. Currently, the average rental prices of A class offices in Vilnius are from 14 to 17 EUR/sq. m, B1 - from 10 to 14 EUR/sq. m, B2 – from 6.5 to 10 EUR/sq. m. The new business centers that replenished the market in Kaunas have slightly influenced a rise in prices; therefore, currently, the average prices of B1 class offices are from 9 to 14 EUR/sq. m, B2 - from 6 to 9 EUR/sq. m. In 2017, the level of vacancy in Klaipeda has decreased in all segments; however, there are still too many vacant spaces in the port-city, which could affect the rise in rental prices. At the end of 2017, the average rental prices of A class offices in Klaipeda were from 9 to 13 EUR/sq. m, B1 - from 7 to 9 EUR/sq. m, B2 - from 5 to 8 EUR/sq. m. It is likely that the continuous increase of competition in the market of business centers in Vilnius and Kaunas will prevent growth in rental prices in 2018, and in some segments, especially in older B2 class offices, the rental price may slightly decrease. In Klaipeda, having the same situation, rental prices of modern offices remain steady.

The successful development of the logistics sector resulted in quite intensive construction of storage facilities and logistics centers in Vilnius and Kaunas in 2017. However, it should be noted that most of the newly built logistics centers were intended for own use. In 2018, further development of this sector is expected not only in Vilnius and Kaunas but also in Klaipeda where the construction of several large storage facilities is planned.

In Latvian warehousing and logistics market, vacancy rate dropped 4 percent during 2017. Rental prices remain stable; largest part of new storage facilities is built for own needs or for the needs of tenants, concluding long-term contracts with them.

17 A description of the principal risks and uncertainties

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.

17.1. GENERAL RISK FACTORS IN THE BUSINESS FIELD WHERE THE GROUP OPERATES

Risk factor, related to the change of the legal status of the Company

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.

General risk

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 development risk

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.

Risk of inflation and deflation

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.

Macroeconomic environment

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.

Cyclicality of the real estate sector

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.

17.2. RISK FACTORS CHARACTERISTIC OF THE GROUP

Risk of the management and human resources

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.

Dependence on external financing

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.

Risk related to lease agreements

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.

Reliance on the administrator of the Company's property

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 "Investment restrictions". 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.

Interest rate risk

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 29 January 2016 a credit was increased by EUR 4.5 million) 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

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 38.5% of its investment property market value as of 31 December 2017 (41% as of 31 December 2016).

Credit risk

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.

Liquidity risk

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.

Total investment risk

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.

Investment diversification risk

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.

Tenants' risk

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.

Risk of valuation of the Company's assets

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 two property appraisers, 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.

Competition risk

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.

17.3. RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE COMPANY'S SHARES (INVESTMENTS THERETO)

Market risk

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.

Dividend payment risk

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. For more information regarding payment of dividend by the Company please see Section 4.14.3 Dividend Policy as well as Part X of the Articles of Association, which is incorporated by reference to this Prospectus.

Liquidity of the Issuer's Shares is not guaranteed

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.

17.4. INFORMATION ABOUT THE EXTENT OF RISK AND ITS MANAGEMENT IN THE COMPANY

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 2017.

17.5. THE MAIN INDICATIONS ABOUT INTERNAL CONTROL AND RISK MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS RELATED TO THE PREPARATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

collegial body should treat all shareholders impartially
and fairly. It should ensure that shareholders are

conflicts of interest are very high. Such areas to be
considered as highly relevant are issues of nomination
of company's directors, determination of directors'
remuneration and control and assessment of the
company's audit. Therefore when the mentioned
issues are attributable to the competence of the
collegial body, it is recommended that the collegial
body should establish Nomination, Remuneration, and
Audit Committees. Companies should ensure that the
functions
attributable
to
the
Nomination,
Remuneration, and Audit Committees are carried out.
However they may decide to merge these functions
and set up less than three committees. In such case a
company should explain in detail reasons behind the
selection of alternative approach and how the selected
approach complies with the objectives set forth for the
three different committees. Should the collegial body
of the company comprise small number of members,
the functions assigned to the three committees may be
performed by the collegial body itself, provided that it
meets composition requirements advocated for the
committees and that adequate information is provided
in this respect. In such case provisions of this Code
relating to the committees of the collegial body (in
particular with respect to their role, operation, and
transparency) should apply, where relevant, to the
collegial body as a whole.
4.8. The key objective of the committees is to increase
efficiency of the activities of the collegial body by
ensuring
that
decisions
are
based
on
due
consideration, and to help organize its work with a
view to ensuring that the decisions it takes are free of
material conflicts of interest. Committees should
exercise independent judgment and integrity when
exercising its functions as well as present the collegial
body with recommendations concerning the decisions
of the collegial body. Nevertheless the final decision
shall
be
adopted
by
the
collegial
body.
The
recommendation on creation of committees is not
intended, in principle, to constrict the competence of
the collegial body or to remove the matters considered
from the purview of the collegial body itself, which
remains fully responsible for the decisions taken in its
field of competence.
4.9. Committees established by the collegial body
should normally be composed of at least three
members. In companies with small number of
members

the
collegial
body,

In cases when the Company chooses not to set up a Supervisory Board, Remuneration and Audit Committees should be entirely comprised of nonexecutive directors.
