Independent auditor's report to the shareholders of AB Snaige

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of AB Snaige (hereinafter the Company), which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2007, the statements of income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes (comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes).

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

The Company's management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing as set forth by the International Federation of Accountants. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide the basis for our audit opinion.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

  • a) Until 1 January 2006 the Company capitalised LTL 10,975 thousand expenditures of newly installed spare parts for equipment and LTL 7,935 thousand expenditures of reconstructing and repairing buildings, without derecognising the carrying amount of replaced parts and of the previous reconstructions. We were not provided with sufficient evidence that would allow us to assess the carrying amounts of the replaced spare parts and of the previous reconstructions, which should be derecognised as at 31 December 2007.
  • b) As further described in Note 1, as at 31 December 2007 the carrying value of the investments in the shares of the subsidiary OOO Techprominvest was LTL 12,649 thousand. IAS 27 and IAS 36 require that investments in subsidiaries should be carried at cost less impairment. As at 31 December 2007 there were indications that investments into this subsidiary may be impaired: OOO Techprominvest incurred losses in 2007 and 2006 and its liabilities significantly exceed the carrying amount of its assets as at 31 December 2007. However, the Company did not test the investment for impairment and did not record an impairment loss. We were unable to ascertain whether the carrying value of the investment in the subsidiary OOO Techprominvest was not impaired as at 31 December 2007.
  • c) As of 31 December 2007, the Company accounted for receivables of LTL 92,282 thousand (LTL 110,784 thousand as of 31 December 2006) from the subsidiary OOO Techprominvest at the nominal value including the amount of LTL 46,995 thousand (LTL 61,573 thousand as of 31 December 2006) that is accounted for as non-current receivables. In accordance with IAS 39, receivables should be carried at amortised cost less impairment. As at 31 December 2007, the liabilities of the subsidiary significantly exceed the carrying value of its assets, and the subsidiary incurred losses in 2007 and 2006. We were not able to assess the possible adjustment required in order to present the aforementioned receivables from the subsidiary at amortised cost less impairment.

  • d) As at 31 December 2007 the Company did not account for payroll related liabilities to the Company's management amounting to LTL 420 thousand, which, in our opinion, should have been recognised as the Company's expense in 2007. If this adjustment was accounted for, current liabilities of the Company as at 31 December 2007 would increase, net loss for the year 2007 would increase and the shareholders' equity as at 31 December 2007 would decrease by LTL 420 thousand.
  • e) As at 31 December 2007 the Company, according to the agreement which is valid until 28 February 2009, classified factoring liabilities with the carrying amount of LTL 18,277 thousand (LTL 15,554 thousand as at 31 December 2006) as non-current liabilities. According to IAS 1, liabilities can be classified as non-current only if the Company has an unconditional right to postpone the payment for 12 months after the balance sheet date. Because the settlement term of the factoring liabilities is shorter, then, in our opinion, these liabilities should have been presented as current liabilities. If this adjustment was accounted for, current liabilities of the Company as at 31 December 2007 would increase and non-current liabilities would decrease by LTL 18,277 thousand (LTL 15,554 thousand as at 31 December 2006).

Qualified Opinion

In our opinion, except for the effect of such adjustments, if any, as might have been determined, had we been able to obtain sufficient audit evidence regarding the matters described in section Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraphs (a) to (c) above, and except for the effect of the matters described in section Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraphs (d) to (e) above, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2007, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union.

Emphasis of Matter

Without further qualifying our opinion, we draw your attention to the fact that as at 31 December 2007 the Company had accounted for receivables of LTL 92,282 thousand from the subsidiary OOO Techprominvest. The subsidiary operated with losses and its financial condition casts doubt whether the Company will recover this amount. Furthermore, the Company incurred loss in 2007. These reasons indicate the existence of a material uncertainty, which may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. As management of the Company has discussed in Note 30, the Company has taken steps to secure financing of the Company's operations; therefore, no adjustments have been made in these financial statements related to this material uncertainty.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

At the end of our audit the management was still drafting the Annual Report, therefore in this report we could not present our assessment of the Annual Report.

$\overline{2}$ Accounting principles

The principal accounting policies adopted in preparing the Company's financial statements for 2007 are as follows:

Basis of preparation $2.1.$

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). as adopted by the European Union (hereinafter the EU).

These are the separate financial statements of the Company. The financial statements of AB Snaige and its subsidiaries were approved on 11 April 2008 and is prepared separately.

These financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, which are carried at fair value.

Adoption of new and/or changed IFRSs and IFRIC interpretations

The Company has adopted the following new and amended IFRS and IFRIC (International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee) interpretations during the year. Adoption of these revised standards and interpretations did not have any effect on the financial performance or position of the Company. They did however give rise to additional disclosures:

  • IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures.
  • Amendments to IAS 1 Capital Disclosures.
  • IFRIC 7 Applying the Restatement Approach under IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies.
  • IFRIC 8 Scope of IFRS 2.
  • IFRIC 9 Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives.
  • IFRIC 10 Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment.

2.1. Basis of preparation (cont'd)

The principal effects of these changes are as follows:

IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. This standard requires disclosures that enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the significance of the Company's financial instruments and the nature and extent of risks arising from those financial instruments. The new disclosures are included throughout the financial statements. While there has been no effect on the financial position or results, comparative information has been revised where needed.

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. This amendment requires the Company to make new disclosures to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the Company's objectives, policies and processes for managing capital. These new disclosures are presented in Note 28.

IFRIC 7 Applying the Restatement Approach under IAS 29 "Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies". This interpretation provides guidance on how to apply the requirements of IAS 29 in a reporting period in which an entity identifies the existence of hyperinflation in the economy of its functional currency, when that economy was not hyperinflationary in the prior period. The interpretation had no impact on the financial position or performance of the Company.

IFRIC 8 Scope of IFRS 2. This interpretation requires IFRS 2 to be applied to any arrangements in which the entity cannot identify specifically some or all of the goods received, in particular where equity instruments are issued for consideration which appears to be less than fair value. As equity instruments are not issued to employees, the interpretation had no impact on the financial position or performance of the Company.

IFRIC 9 Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives. IFRIC 9 states that the date to assess the existence of an embedded derivative is the date that an entity first becomes a party to the contract, with reassessment only if there is a change to the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows. The interpretation had no impact on the financial position or performance of the Company.

IFRIC 10 Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment. The Company adopted IFRIC Interpretation 10 as at 1 January 2007, which requires that an entity must not reverse an impairment loss recognised in a previous interim period in respect of goodwill or an investment in either an equity instrument or a financial asset carried at cost. As the Company had no impairment losses previously reversed, the interpretation had no impact on the financial position or performance of the Company.

The Company has not applied the following IFRSs and IFRIC Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective:

  • IFRS 2 Share-based Payments Vesting Conditions and Cancellations (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009 once adopted by the EU). The Standard restricts the definition of "vesting condition" to a condition that includes an explicit or implicit requirement to provide services. Any other conditions are non-vesting conditions, which have to be taken into account to determine the fair value of the equity instruments granted. In the case that the award does not vest as the result of a failure to meet a non-vesting condition that is within the control of either the entity or the counterparty, this must be accounted for as a cancellation. The Company has not entered into share-based payment schemes; therefore this IFRS will not have significant impact for Company's accounting.
  • IFRS 3R Business Combinations and IAS 27R Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2009 once adopted by the EU). IFRS 3R introduces a number of changes in the accounting for business combinations that will impact the amount of goodwill recognised, the reported results in the period that an acquisition occurs, and future reported results. IAS 27R requires that a change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary is accounted for as an equity transaction. Therefore, such a change will have no impact on goodwill, nor will it give raise to a gain or loss. Furthermore, the amended standard changes the accounting for losses incurred by the subsidiary as well as the loss of control of a subsidiary. The changes introduced by IFRS 3R and IAS 27R must be applied prospectively and will affect future acquisitions and transactions with minority interests.
  • IFRS 8 Operating Segments (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009 once adopted by the EU). The standard sets out requirements for disclosure of information about an entity's operating segments and also about the entity's products and services, the geographical areas in which it operates, and its major customers. IFRS 8 supersedes IAS 14 Segment Reporting.

2.1. Basis of preparation (cont'd)

  • IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements Revised (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009 once adopted by the EU). IAS 1 has been revised to enhance the usefulness of the information presented in the financial statements. Revision includes number of changes, including introduction of a new terminology, revised presentation of equity transactions and introduction of a new statement of comprehensive income as well as amended requirements related to the presentation of the financial statements in a case of their retrospective restatement.
  • IAS 23 Borrowing Costs Revised (effective for annual periods beginning on or 1 January 2009 once adopted by the EU). The revised standard eliminates the option of expensing all borrowing costs and requires borrowing costs to be capitalised if they are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. In accordance with the transitional requirements of the Standard, the Company will adopt this as a prospective change. Accordingly, borrowing costs will be capitalised on qualifying assets with a commencement date after 1 January 2009. No changes will be made for borrowing costs incurred to this date that have been expensed.
  • IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements Revised (effective for annual periods beginning on or 1 January 2009 once adopted by the EU). Revised standard requires that changes in ownership interest in a subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions. Also, accounting for losses incurred by the subsidiary was changed: such losses will be allocated between the controlling and non-controlling interests even if the losses exceed the noncontrolling equity investment in the subsidiary. On a loss of control of a subsidiary, any retained interest will be remeasured to fair value and will impact the gain or loss recognised on disposal. In addition, revised standard provides more guidance as to when multiple arrangements should be accounted for as a single transaction. These most significant changes introduced by the revised standard will be applied prospectively, except for the multiple arrangements that have been accounted for as a single transaction - these arrangements require retrospective assessment.
  • Amendments to IAS 32 and IAS 1 Puttable Financial Instruments (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009 once adopted by the EU). The amendment to IAS 32 requires certain puttable financial instruments and obligations arising on liquidation to be classified as equity if certain criteria are met. The amendment to IAS 1 requires disclosure of certain information relating to puttable instruments classified as equity. The Company does not expect these amendments to impact the financial statements of the Company.
  • IFRS 3 Business Combinations Revised (effective for annual periods beginning on or 1 January 2009 once adopted by the EU). The scope of IFRS 3 has been revised to include combinations of mutual entities and combinations without consideration (dual listed shares). Also a number of changes are introduced in accounting for business combinations that will impact the amount of goodwill recognised, the results in the period when the acquisition occurs, and future revenues reported. In accordance with the transitional requirements of the Standard, the Company will adopt this as a prospective change. Accordingly, assets and liabilities arising from business combinations prior to the date of application of the revised standard will not be restated.
  • IFRIC 11 IFRS 2 Company and Treasury Share Transactions (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 March 2007 once adopted by the EU). The interpretation provides guidance on classification of transactions as equity-settled or as cash-settled and also gives guidance on how to account for share-based payment arrangements that involve two or more entities within the same Company in the individual financial statements of each Company entity.
  • IFRIC 12 Service Concession Agreements (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2008 once adopted by the EU). The interpretation addresses how service concession operators should apply existing International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) to account for the obligations they undertake and rights they receive in service concession arrangements.
  • IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2008 once adopted by the EU). This interpretation requires customer loyalty award credits to be accounted for as a separate component of the sales transaction in which they are granted and therefore part of the fair value of the consideration received is allocated to the award credit and deferred over the period that the award credit is fulfilled.

2.1. Basis of preparation (cont'd)

IFRIC 14 IAS 19 - The Limit on Defined Benefit Asset. Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2008 once adopted by the EU). This interpretation specifies the conditions for recognising a net asset for a defined benefit pension plan.

Under the condition that the standards and interpretations have been endorsed by the European Commission, the Company intends to adopt these IFRSs and IFRIC in the period they become effective.

The Company expects that the adoption of the pronouncements listed above will have no significant impact on the Company's financial statements in the period of initial application, except for IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements -Revised and IAS 23 Borrowing costs - Revised.

IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements - Revised

This standard sets out new requirements on the presentation of the statement of changes in equity and introduces a new statement of comprehensive income that combines all items of income and expense recognised in profit or loss together with "other comprehensive income" and requires a separate disclosure of all items reclassified from other comprehensive income to profit and loss as well as disclosure of the income tax relating to each component of other comprehensive income. Also, requirements related to the presentation of the financial statements in a case of their retrospective restatement are amended and new terminology, replacing "balance sheet" with "statement of financial position" and "cash flow statement" with "statement of cash flows", although the titles are not obligatory, is introduced. The Company is still estimating the impact of the adoption of this revision.

IAS 23 Borrowing costs - Revised

Currently all borrowing costs are expensed as incurred. The revised standard requires borrowing costs to be capitalised if they are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. In accordance with the transitional requirements of the Standard, the Company will adopt this as a prospective change. When the Company adopts this standard, borrowing costs related to qualifying assets will be capitalised. The Company is still estimating the impact of the adoption of this revision.

$2.2.$ Going concern

The financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2007 are prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern.

$2.3.$ Presentation currency

The Company's financial statements are presented in local currency of the Republic of Lithuania, Litas (LTL), which is the Company's functional currency. Lithuanian litas is pegged to euro at the rate of 3.4528 litas for 1 euro, and the exchange rates in relation to other currencies are set daily by the Bank of Lithuania.

$2.4.$ Investments into subsidiaries

Investments into subsidiaries in the separate financial statements of the Company are stated at cost less impairment, if any.

(all amounts are in LTL unless otherwise stated)

Accounting principles (cont'd) $\overline{2}$

2.5. Intangible assets

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. Intangible assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives (3 years).

The useful lives, residual values and amortisation method are reviewed annually.

Research and development costs

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditure on an individual projects is recognised as an intangible asset when the Company can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete the asset and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development.

Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the cost model is applied requiring the asset to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the asset begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use. It is amortised over the period of expected future benefit. Amortisation periods from 1 to 8 years are applied. During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.

Licenses

Amounts paid for licences are capitalised and then amortised over their validity period.

Software

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

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

Property, plant and equipment $2.6.$

Property, plant and equipment are assets that are controlled by the Company, 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 measured. Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, excluding the costs of day-to-day servicing, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of such property, plant and equipment when that cost is incurred if the asset recognition criteria are met. Replaced parts are written off.

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.

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 de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the income statement in the year the asset is derecognised.

$\overline{2}$ Accounting principles (cont'd)

$2.6.$ Property, plant and equipment (cont'd)

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:

Buildings and structures 15 - 63 vears
Machinery and equipment $5 - 15$ vears
Vehicles 4 - 6 vears
Other non-current assets 3 - 8 vears

The asset's residual values, useful lives and methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end

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.

$2.7.$ Financial assets and liabilities

According to IAS 39 "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement" the Company's financial assets are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity investments, loans and receivables, and available-for-sale financial assets, as appropriate. All purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company determines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at each financial year end.

All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date, which is the date that the Company commits to purchase the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

The category financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' includes financial assets classified as held for trading. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Gains or losses on investment held for trading are recognised in income statement.

Held-to-maturity investments

Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as held-to-maturity when the Company have the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Investments that are intended to be held-tomaturity are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains and losses are recognised in income statement when the investments are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in income statement when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classified in any of the three preceding categories. After initial recognition available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value with gains or losses (except impairment and gain or losses from foreign currencies exchange) being recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is derecognised or until the investment is determined to be impaired at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is included in the income statement.

2.8 Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realisable value, after impairment evaluation for obsolete and slow moving items. Net realisable 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. Unrealisable inventory is fully written-off.

Inventories in transit are accounted for in accordance with INCOTERMS-2000.

2.9. Receivables

Receivables are initially recorded at the fair value of the consideration given. Receivables are subsequently carried at amortised cost. less impairment.

2.10. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash includes cash on hand and cash with banks. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less and that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits at current accounts, and other short-term highly liquid investments.

2.11. Borrowings

Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred.

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value of proceeds received, net of expenses incurred. They are subsequently carried at amortised cost, the difference between net proceeds and redemption value being recognised in the net profit or loss over the period of the borrowings. The borrowings are classified as non-current if the completion of a refinancing agreement before the balance sheet date provides evidence that the substance of the liability at the balance sheet date was non-current.

2.12. Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets

A financial asset (or, where applicable a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when:

  • the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired;
  • the Company retain the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but have assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass through' arrangement; or
  • the Company have transferred their rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either (a) have transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but have transferred control of the asset.

Where the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognised to the extent of the Company's continuing involvement in the asset.

Financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

(all amounts are in LTL unless otherwise stated)

Accounting principles (cont'd) $\overline{2}$

2.13. Factoring

Factoring transaction is a funding transaction wherein the Company transfers to factor claim rights for determined fee. The companies alienate rights to receivables due at a future date according to invoices. Factoring transactions of the Company comprise factoring transactions with regress (recourse) right (the factor is entitled to returning the overdue claim back to the Company) and without regress (recourse) right (the factor is not entitled to returning the overdue claim back to the Company). Factored accounts receivable (with regress right) and related financing are recorded in accounts receivable caption and borrowings and financial lease obligations caption.

2.14. Financial lease and operating lease

Financial lease - the Company as lessee

The Company recognises financial leases as assets and liabilities in the balance sheet at amounts equal at the inception of the lease to the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, to the present value of the minimum lease payments. The rate of discount used when calculating the present value of minimum payments of financial lease is the interest rate of financial lease payment, when it is possible to determine it, in other cases, Company's composite interest rate on borrowings is applied. Directly attributable initial costs are included into the asset value. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

Direct expenses incurred by the lessee during the lease period are included in the value of the leased asset.

The depreciation is accounted for financial lease assets and it also gives rise to financial expenses in the income statement for each accounting period. The depreciation policy for leased assets is consistent with that for depreciable assets that are owned. The leased assets cannot be depreciated over the period longer than the lease term, unless the Company according to the lease contract, gets transferred their ownership after the lease term is over.

If the result of sales and lease back transactions is financial lease, any profit from sales exceeding the book value is not recognised as income immediately. It is deferred and amortised over the lease term.

Operating lease - the Company 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 recognised 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 recognised 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 recognised immediately. If the sales price is lower than the fair value, any profit or loss is recognised 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 amortised 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 amortised over a period, during which the assets are expected to be operated.

2.15. Grants and subsidies

Grants and subsidies (hereinafter Grants) 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 recognised 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 amortisation.

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 recognised as used in parts to the extent of the expenses incurred during the reporting period or unearned income to be compensated by that grant.

Accounting principles (cont'd) $\overline{2}$

2.16. Provisions

Provisions are recognised when 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 recognised as an interest costs.

2.17. Income tax

Income tax charge is based on profit for the year and considers deferred taxation. Income tax is calculated based on the Lithuanian tax legislation.

The standard income tax rate in Lithuania is 15%. On 1 January 2006 the Provisional Social Tax Law came into effect in the Republic of Lithuania, which stipulates that along with the corporate income tax, for one tax year beginning on 1 January 2006, companies have to pay an additional 4% tax calculated based on the income tax principles, and for the following year a 3% tax starting from 1 January 2007. Starting from 2007 the standard income tax rate in Lithuania will remain constant - 15%.

Tax losses can be carried forward for 5 consecutive years, except for the losses incurred as a result of disposal of securities and/or derivative financial instruments that can be carried forward for 3 consecutive years. The losses from disposal of securities and/or derivative financial instruments can only be used to reduce the taxable income earned from the transactions of the same nature.

Deferred taxes are calculated using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse based on tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax assets have been recognised in the balance sheet to the extent the Company's management believes it will be realised in the foreseeable future, based on taxable profit forecasts. If it is believed that part of the deferred tax asset is not going to be realised, this part of the deferred tax asset is not recognised in the financial statements.

2.18. Revenue recognition

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

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

Revenue from services is recognized on accrual basis when services are rendered.

2.19. Expense recognition

Expenses are recognised on the basis of accrual and revenue and expense matching principles in the reporting period when the income related to these expenses was earned, irrespective of the time the money was spent. In those cases when the costs incurred cannot be directly attributed to the specific income and they will not bring income during the future periods, they are expensed as incurred.

The amount of expenses is usually accounted as the amount paid or due to be paid, excluding VAT. In those cases when long period of payment is established and the interest is not distinguished, the amount of expenses shall be estimated by discounting the amount of payment using the market interest rate.

$\overline{2}$ Accounting principles (cont'd)

2.20. Segment information

In these financial statements business segment is considered component of the Company participating in production of an individual product or provision of a service or a group of related products or services, the risk and returns whereof are different from other business seaments.

Geographical segment is considered component of the Company participating in production of an individual product or provision of a service or a group of related products or services, in particular economic environment the risk and returns whereof are different from other economic environments.

Business activities of the Company are structured as a sole primary business segment - manufacture of refrigerators and freezers. Business and geographical segment information is presented in these financial statements in Note 4.

2.21. Impairment of assets

Financial assets

Financial assets as well as goodwill are reviewed for impairment at each balance sheet date.

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, whenever it is probable that the Company will not collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of loans or receivables, impairment is recognised in the income statement. The reversal of impairment losses previously recognised is recorded when the decrease in impairment loss can be justified by an event occurring after the write-down. Such reversal is recorded in the income statement. However, the increased carrying amount is only recognised to the extent it does not exceed the amortised cost that would have been had the impairment not been recognised.

Other assets

Other assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the income statement. Reversal of impairment losses recognised in prior vears is recorded when there is an indication that the impairment losses recognised for the asset no longer exist or have decreased. The reversal is accounted for in the same caption of the income statement as the impairment loss.

2.22. Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and disclosure of contingencies. The significant areas of estimation used in the preparation of these financial statements relate to depreciation (Notes 2.6, and 13), amortisation (Notes 2.5, and 12), evaluation of impairment and provisions (Notes 2.16., 2.21. and 21), evaluation of deferred income tax valuation allowance and deferred tax recognition (Note 11). Future events may occur which may cause the assumptions used in arriving at the estimates to change. The effect of any changes in estimates will be recorded in the financial statements, when determinable.

2.23. Contingencies

Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the financial statements. They are disclosed unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote.

A contingent asset is not recognised in the financial statements but disclosed when an inflow or economic benefits are probable.

2.24. Subsequent events

Post-balance sheet events that provide additional information about the Company's position at the balance sheet date (adjusting events) are reflected in the financial statements. Post-balance sheet events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.

2.25. Offsetting and comparative figures

When preparing the financial statements, assets and liabilities, as well as revenue and expenses are not set off, except the cases when a certain Standard specifically requires such set-off.

Where necessary, comparative figures have been adjusted to correspond to the presentation of the current year.

Correction of errors $\mathbf{R}$

As of 31 December 2006, considering that the banks have not demonstrated to take any actions to request an early repayment of the loans, under the non-current liabilities caption the Company accounted for LTL 3,761 thousand liabilities in accordance with loan agreements, certain covenants of which were not fulfilled; therefore, the banks had the right to change the amounts of loans stated in the agreements as well as the maturity of the loans. According to IAS 1 requirements, liabilities can be classified as non-current only if the Company has an unconditional right to postpone the payment for 12 months after balance sheet date. Therefore, the aforementioned liabilities are presented in these financial statements as current liabilities.

Fixed rate borrowings comprise current liabilities related to agreements of recourse factoring. The fair value of borrowings was calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows at the prevailing interest rates. The fair value of loans and other financial assets was calculated using market interest rates.

The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

  • (a) The carrying amount of current trade, factoring liabilities and current borrowings approximates fair value.
  • (b) The fair value of trade and other current receivable approximates their carrying amounts.

The derivative financial instruments are carried at fair value, thus their fair value equals the carrying amount. The Company had no investments into unlisted entities as at 31 December 2007 and 2006.

The following table shows net gains (losses) of financial instruments included in the income statement:

2007 2006
Financial assets held for trading 571,021 3,975,521
Loans and receivables (262.194) 24.805

Net gains and losses of financial instruments include revaluation effect of foreign currency derivative financial instruments and impairment losses of receivables.

28 Capital and risk management

Credit risk

The maximum exposure of the credit as at 31 December 2007 and 2006 comprise balance values of receivables including the derivative financial instruments' value. As stated in Note 29, on 31 December 2007 the carrying amount of receivables from OOO Techprominvest and loans was LTL 92,282 thousand (LTL 110,505 thousand in 2006).

Except for receivables from subsidiaries, the concentration of the Company's receivables is fairly low. On 31 December 2007 receivables from 10 main clients of the Company accounted for approx. 38.35 % (47.81% on 31 December 2006) of the total receivables of the Company.

The credit policy implemented by the Company and credit risk is constantly controlled. Credit risk assessment is applied to all clients willing to get a payment deferral.

In accordance with the policy of receivables recognition as doubtful, the payments variation from agreement terms are monitored and prevention actions are taken in order to prevent overdue receivables in accordance with the standard of the Company "Trade Credits Risk Management Procedure".

According to the policy of the Company, receivables are considered to be doubtful if they meet the following criteria:

  • the client is late with settlement for 60 and more days and the receivable is not insured;
  • factorised clients late with settlement for 30 and more days;
  • client is unable to fulfil the obligations assumed:
  • reluctant to communicate with the seller:
  • the turnover of management is observed:
  • $\mathbf{r}$ reorganisation process is observed:
  • information about tax penalties, judicial operation and restrictions of the use of assets is observed;
  • bankruptcy case;
  • inconsistency and variation in payments; $\ddot{ }$
  • other criteria.

Interest rate risk

The major part of the Company's borrowings is with variable rates, related to LIBOR and EURIBOR, which creates an interest rate risk. As at 31 December 2007 and 2006 the Company did not use any financial instruments to manage interest rate risk.

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, of the Company's profit before tax (through the impact on floating rate borrowings). There is no impact on the Company's equity, other than current year profit impact.

Foreign exchange risk

Major currency risks of the Company occur due to the fact that the Company's significant part of the revenue is in US dollars and the borrowings are denominated in other foreign currencies.

To reduce the effect of foreign currency exchange fluctuation, the Company uses derivative financial instruments. In 2007 the Company arranged the foreign currency forwards with a bank for USD 15,540 thousand translation at a fixed rate. USD 3,340 thousand were executed in 2007. Derivative financial instruments are set to hedge from negative effect of change of foreign currency rate or cash flows from sales revenue in US dollars.
