The difference of the acquired minority interest value in the Group's financial statements and costs of shares is accounted for as goodwill.

During consolidation all the transactions between the companies, balance and unrealized profit and loss are eliminated.

Consolidated financial statement is prepared applying same accounting principles to similar transactions and other events with similar situations.

2.4. Intangible assets, except for goodwill

Intangible assets are recognized 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 amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

Research and development

The cost of research expensed during the objective for new technological improvements, are accounted in the profit (loss) account at the moment when they were expensed.

Expenses from the development activities of creation of new or enhanced products and operational processes are capitalized if the product or the process is technically and commercially proven and the Group has enough resources and intentions to finish the creation of this product or process. Capitalized expenses include raw material and direct work expenses as well as respective additional expenses. Capitalized development expenses are accounted at their cost subtracting the accumulated depreciation. Capitalized product creation expenses are being amortized as soon as product creation works are finished and their results can be used in commercial production. Capitalized product creation expenses will be amortized over the period when the economic benefit is received. The amortization period applied varies from 1 to 4 years.

Licenses

Amounts paid for licenses are capitalized and then amortized over their validity period.

Software

The costs of acquisition of new software are capitalized and treated as an intangible asset if these costs are not an integral part of the related hardware. Software is amortized over a period not exceeding 3 years.

Costs incurred in order to restore or maintain the future economic benefits that the Group expects from the originally assessed standard of performance of existing software systems are recognized as an expense when the restoration or maintenance work is carried out.

2.5. Tangible non-current assets

Tangible non-current assets are assets that are controlled by the Group, which is expected to generate economic benefits in the future periods with the useful life exceeding one year, and which acquisition (manufacturing) costs could be reliably defined and is higher then 500 LTL. Liquidity value is equal to 1 LTL.

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

When assets are sold or retired, their cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss resulting from their disposal is included in the income statement.

The initial cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including non-refundable purchase taxes and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Expenditures incurred after the property, plant and equipment have been put into operation, such as repair and maintenance costs, are normally charged to the income statement in the period the costs are incurred.

Machinery and equipment 5 – 10 years

UAB FMĮ "Orion Securities"

Vehicles 6 – 7 years
Other assets 3 – 8 years

Construction in progress is stated at cost less accumulated impairment. This includes the cost of construction, plant and equipment and other directly attributable costs. Construction in progress is not depreciated until the relevant assets are completed and put into operation.

2.6. Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, after impairment evaluation for obsolete and slow moving items. Net realizable value is the selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the costs of completion, marketing and distribution. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress includes the applicable allocation of fixed and variable overhead costs based on a normal operating capacity. Unrealizable inventory has is fully written-off.

In calculating cost of goods Group attributes part of received discounts towards the acquired goods from the distributor, which are not yet sold.

2.10. Factoring

UAB FMĮ "Orion Securities"

Financing income is based on the constant periodical interest rate calculated on the net investment balance. The initial direct expenses are included upon assessment of receivables at the time of initial recognition.

Operating lease – the Group as lessee

Leases where the lessor retains all the risk and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The gains from discounts provided by the lessor are recognized as a decrease in lease expenses over the period of the lease using the straight-line method.

If the result of sales and lease back transactions is operating lease and it is obvious that the transaction has been carried out at fair value, any profit or loss is recognized immediately. If the sales price is lower than the fair value, any profit or loss is recognized immediately, except for the cases when the loss is compensated by lower than market prices for lease payments in the future. The profit is then deferred and it is amortized in proportion to the lease payments over a period, during which the assets are expected to be operated. If the sales price exceeds the fair value, a deferral is made for the amount by which the fair value is exceeded and it is amortized over a period, during which the assets are expected to be operated.

Operating lease – the Group as lessor

Assets leased under operating lease in the balance sheet of the Group are accounted for depending on their nature. Income from operating lease is recognized as other income in the statement of income within the lease period using the straight-line method. All the discounts provided to the operating lessee are recognized using straight-line method during the lease period by reducing the lease income. Initial direct expenses incurred in order to generate lease income are included in the carrying value of the leased asset.

2.12. Grants and subsidies

Grants and subsidies received in the form of non-current assets or intended for the purchase, construction or other acquisition of non-current assets are considered as asset-related grants. Assets received free of charge are also allocated to this group of grants. The amount of the grants related to assets is recognized in the financial statements as used in parts according to the depreciation of the assets associated with this grant. In the income statement, a relevant expense account is reduced by the amount of grant amortization.

Grants received as a compensation for the expenses or unearned income of the current or previous reporting period, also, all the grants, which are not grants related to assets, are considered as grants related to income. The income-related grants are recognized as used in parts to the extent of the expenses incurred during the reporting period or unearned income to be compensated by that grant.

2.13. Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group or the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of 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 provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted in order to present the most reasonable current estimate. If the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of provision is equal to the present value of the expenses, which are expected to be incurred to settle the liability. Were discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as an interest.

2.14. Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Group and the amount of the revenue can be measured reliably. Sales are recognized net of VAT and discounts.

Revenue from sales of goods is recognized when delivery has taken place and transfer of risks and rewards has been completed.

Financial statements of foreign consolidated subsidiaries are translated to Litas at year-end exchange rates in respect to the balance sheet accounts, and at the average exchange rates for the year in respect to the accounts of the statement of income.

The exchange differences arising on the translation are taken directly to equity. Upon disposal of the corresponding assets, the cumulative revaluation of translation reserves is recognized as income or expenses in the same period when the gain or loss on disposal is recognized.
