During the unbundling process that took place in 2010 the Company took over property, plant and equipment from Lietuvos Energija AB. The fair value of property, plant and equipment, depending on the type of asset, of Lietuvos Energija AB as at 31 December 2008 was determined by independent valuers who used either method of comparative prices, or depreciated replacement value, or discounted cash flows methods to determine the fair value of the assets.

As at 31 December 2009, Lietuvos Energija AB revised the carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment. Having assessed the fall in construction cost indices during the 11 months of 2009 of the relevant categories of assets as published by the Lithuanian Statistics Department, Lietuvos Energija AB reduced the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment. Lietuvos Energija AB applied a 12.27 per cent statistical index in respect of the category of buildings and a 9.68 per cent index in respect of other categories of property, plant and equipment that at 31 December 2008 were revalued based on the depreciated replacement cost method.

The previous version of the Lithuanian Law on Electricity effective as at 31 December 2008 stipulated that the price caps of electricity transmission services were determined based on the value of assets used in licensed activities of the service provider, with the value of such assets established on the grounds of data reported in the service provider's financial statements (Regulated Assets Base).

According to the amendment to the above-mentioned Law effective from 1 June 2009, the price caps of electricity transmission services are to be determined based on the value of assets used in licensed activities of the service provider with values being estimated and approved by the Commission in accordance with the principles of determination of the value of assets used in licensed activities of the service provider that have been drafted by the Commission and approved by the Government.

According to the Resolution on the Methodology of Determination of the Value of Assets used in Licensed Activities of the Electricity Service Provider, the determination of the price caps of electricity transmission services is to include the value of assets used in licensed activities of the service provider which is equal to net book value (carrying amount) of property, plant and equipment as at 31 December 2002 as increased by the amount of investments implemented and agreed with the Commission and reduced by the depreciation amount calculated pursuant to the procedure stipulated by the Lithuanian Law on Income Tax.

Due to the reasons specified, the values of property, plant and equipment reported in these financial statements may materially differ from those that would have been determined if the valuation of assets had been performed by independent valuers as required by International Valuation and Accounting Standards. It is probable that such valuation would have a negative effect on the results of the Company' and Group's operation and the shareholders' equity reported in the financial statements for the years 2013 and 2012.

Based on management's decision, valuation of fair values of property, plant and equipment as at 31 December
2010, 31 December 2011 and 31 December 2012 was not performed by independent valuers, as a substantial reorganisation of the whole energy sector took place in 2010 through to 2012 (in 2010 the Company was separated from Lietuvos Energija AB, in 2011 it was merged with LITGRID AB and in 2012 it was separated from Visagino Atominė Elektrinė UAB group). The management plans to perform independent valuation of assets in 2013.

8. Segment information

Management distinguished business segments based on the reports reviewed by the Board who is considered to be the chief operating decision-maker of the Group. The Board analyses operations by geographical areas and types of services provided. Operating profit (loss) is a profitability indicator analysed by management. Reports reviewed by the Board are consistent with the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, except for different presentation.

The Group has distinguished the following 6 segments:

  • electricity transmission;
  • trade in balancing/regulating electricity;
  • provision of capacity reserve services;
  • provision of services under PSO (public service obligation) scheme;
  • activities of the market operator;
  • repair and maintenance activities.

8.Segment information (continued)

The electricity transmission segment is engaged in transmitting electricity over high voltage (330-110 kV) networks from producers to end users or suppliers not in excess of the limit established in the contract. The main objective of these activities is to ensure a reliable, effective, high quality, transparent and safe electricity transmission to distributions networks, large network users from power stations and neighbouring energy systems.

Trade in balancing/regulating electricity is a separate service of the transmission system operator ensuring the balancing of electricity generation/import and demand/export levels.

Provision of capacity reserve services: to ensure a reliable work of the system, the Company purchases from electricity producers the service of ensuring capacity reserve for power generation facilities and provides capacity reserve services to end users. The capacity reserve is required in case of unexpected fall in electricity generation volumes or increase in electricity consumption.

The Company's/Group's services provided under PSO scheme comprise as follows:

  • development and implementation of strategic projects for the improvement of energy security with the help of interconnections Lithuania-Sweden and Lithuania-Poland, connection of the Lithuanian electric energy system to ENTSO-E continental Europe networks;
  • connection of power generation facilities, which use wind, biomass, solar energy or hydroenergy in the process of electricity generation, to transmission networks, optimisation, development and/or reconstruction of transmission networks in relation to acceptance and transmission of electricity from producers that use the renewable energy resources;
  • balancing of electricity generated using the renewable energy resources;
  • administration of PSO service fees.

The Company's subsidiary BALTPOOL UAB carries out the activities of natural gas market operator and applies measures to secure against the fluctuations in electricity prices on power exchange. BALTPOOL UAB earns revenue mainly from turnover fees for trade in power exchange. Until 18 June 2012, BALTPOOL UAB used to act as power exchange operator.

Repair and maintenance services are carried out by the Company's subsidiary TETAS UAB. These services include reconstruction, repair and technical maintenance of medium voltage transformer substations and distribution stations.

11. Contingent liabilities

Litigations

Achema AB has not paid to LITGRID PSO fees for electricity generated and consumed for internal needs from April 2011 till December 2011. On 22 July 2011, LITGRID AB filed a legal claim to Kaunas County Court by which it claimed from Achema AB to cover debt and interest for April-June 2011. This case was suspended by the decision of 14 June 2012 of Kaunas County Court until the completion of investigation of the case with Vilnius County Court initiated by the claim of Achema AB against LITGRID requesting the recognition of the transaction as null and void and payment of restitutional compensation. The outcome of the case will have no impact on the Company's net profit (loss) because the Company acts as an agent and PSO service fees administered by it are recognised only as amounts receivable(payable). The management does not believe that these litigations will have any negative impact on the Group's/Company's financial statements.

AB "Achema", AB "LIFOSA" and AB "ORLEN Lietuva" from 1 January 2013 has refused to pay PSO fees collected for electricity generated and consumed for internal needs and to sign agreements setting PSO fees collection conditions with LITGRID AB. LITGRID AB has send a requirement to those companies to pay PSO fees and to sign the agreements, but the requirements within the prescribed time limit have not been fulfilled. In April 2013 LITGRID AB filed a legal claim to the Kaunas and Siauliai district courts claiming to cover debt and interest for January 2013 and to sign an agreements. Dates of hearings currently are not published because the companies are providing feedback to the claims. The management does not believe that these litigations will have any negative impact on the Group's/Company's financial statements.
