B. Independent Auditor's Report

To the Board of Directs of "LAMPSA HELLENIC HOTELS S.A."

Report on Review of Interim Financial Information

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed separate and consolidated statement of financial position of the Company "LAMPSA HELLENIC HOTELS S.A." as at 30 June 2019 and the related separate and consolidated condensed income statement and statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and the selected explanatory notes that comprise the interim condensed financial information, which forms an integral part of the six-month financial report under Law 3556/2007.

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim condensed financial information in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and apply for Interim Financial Reporting (International Accounting Standard "IAS 34"). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim condensed financial statements based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Auditing Standards incorporated in the Greek legislation and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw your attention to Note 2.17 to the interim condensed financial statements, which describes the existence of third parties pending court cases regarding a subsidiary Company, claiming compensations totaling EUR 1.1 million. The final outcome of the court case cannot be estimated at present, and, therefore, no relative provision has been made in the financial statements regarding these court cases. Our conclusion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

Six-month Financial Report for the period from January 1 All the amounts are expressed in thousands of Euro unless stated otherwise

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

Based on our review, we did not identify any material misstatement or error in the representations of the members of the Board of Directors and the information included in the six-month Board of Directors Management Report, as required under article 5 and 5a of Law 3556/2007, in respect of condensed separate and consolidated financial information.

Stabilization in room occupancy ration can also be observed in the Serbian hotel market, after the increase of the last two years, since demand is showing signs of recovery, assisted by the new foundations caused by Serbia's admission to the EU (airports, privatization of air transportation operator etc.). However, an increase in revenue has not been recorded owing to extensive competition from a high number of new hotels in the Belgrade area.

The hotel market of Rhodes presents signs of recession, with a decrease of flights in Diagoras airport by 3% compared to the respective period last year. In the first six-month period, hotels in the island record a decrease in occupancy and average price of room of approximately 3%-5%.

1.4 Prospects – operations development – Main Risks and Uncertainties for the Second Sixmonth Period of 2019

In the first six-month of 2019, the Greek tourism sector presented stabilizing and slightly decreasing trend after six years of continuous upward trend. The increase in arrivals at Greek airports was not capitalized on hotel sizes, possibly due to the spread on AIRBNB-type platforms. The Lampsa hotels having as a comparative advantage the luxury hotel units, the location and the history (e.g. "Great Britain") lead the group to increase its sizes in all areas of activity, improving at the same time its financial performance.

Stabilization in room occupancy ration can also be observed in the Serbian hotel market, after the increase of the last two years, since demand is showing signs of recovery, assisted by the new foundations caused by Serbia's admission to the EU (airports, privatization of air transportation operator etc). However, an increase in revenue has not been recorded owing to extensive competition from a high number of new hotels in the Belgrade area.

Furthermore, joint operation of the hotels "Grande Bretagne" and "King George" provides economies of scale both at management level and staff level.

The improvement of the profitability of the company is expected, due modification of the management agreement of the hotels "Grande Bretagne" and "King George" with Marriott Group, through which the management fees for the three years 2017-2019 will significantly decrease.

Regarding "Sheraton Rhodes" hotel' fiscal year is expected to close with a revenue decrease of approximately 5% compared to 2018.

As far as the hotels in Serbia are concerned, especially Excelsior Hotel, undertaking of management by Accor Group under the trade title Mercure, with which the group hopes in the long term to increase its sizes. A marginal increase in the income for the hotel "Hyatt Regency Belgrade" is expected as a consequence of the intense competition due to operation of many new hotels in the city of Belgrade.

Currency Risk

The Group operates internationally and carries out trade and loan transaction in foreign currency. Therefore, it is exposed to foreign currency translation differences (another major country of the Group's operations, apart from Greece, is Serbia). he Parent Company exposure to currency risk arises mainly from the bond loan issue in US Dollars.

Credit Risk

More than 80% of the Group sales are held through credit cards and credit sales are mainly made to customers with an estimated credit history.

Liquidity Risk

As at 30/06/2019, the Group had negative working capital, as current liabilities exceed current assets by € 4,7 million (parent company € 10,6 million). A significant part of current liabilities (19% regarding the

Six-month Financial Report for the period from January 1 to June 30, 2019 All the amounts are expressed in thousands of Euro unless stated otherwise

Group the parent company) relates to debt accounts, as well as contractual obligations of €3.7 million, which do not constitute cash outflows but future customer service liability. During the current period, a common bond loan was signed amounting to €80 million of which until 30/06/2019 the €69 million have been disbursed with which the short-term loan liabilities of the previous period were repaid.

Furthermore, the Group's and the Company's Working Capital needs are expected to be covered by the operating inflows expected to be achieved within the following periods, as seasonality is presented in the Group's activity where the occupancy in the spring months is almost double that of the corresponding winter period.

Two major shareholders of the parent company "NAMSOS ENTERPRISES COMPANY LIMITED" and "DRYNA ENTERPRISES COMPANY LIMITED" representing 30.93% of the share capital of each (total of 61.86%), although it is estimated that it will not be necessary, are committed to cover working capital subsequent needs for at least the next twelve months from the date of approval of the interim financial statements of 30/06/2019.

It is noted that the financial statements of the companies included in the consolidation have been prepared based on the principle of the going concern.

Risk of Changes of Fair Value due to Changes in Interest Rates

The Group's policy is to minimize its exposure to the risk of changes of fair value due to changes in interest rates as far as long-term financing is concerned. On June 30, 2019, the Company and the Group are exposed to the risk of changes in market interest regarding their bank borrowings, which, however, is estimated as low.

1.5 Post Reporting Period Balance Sheet Events

On July 26, 2019, "Kriezotou Touristiki Single Member SA (Issuer) and "Lampsa Greek Hotels SA" (Bondholder Lender) signed a Common Bond Loan of € 16 million with a maturity of 10 years, with the sole purpose of financing the reconstruction of the hotel "MGallery", owned by the AUXILIARY FUND OF FORMER EMPLOYEES OF THE AGRICULTURAL BANK OF GREECE ("ATPPEATE"), under the existing lease agreement of the aforementioned hotel.

2. Notes to the Interim Condensed Financial Statements

2.1. General Information

The parent company of the Group is "LAMPSA HELLENIC HOTELS S.A. based in Athens, Vasileos Georgiou Α1, and registered in the Companies Register of the Ministry of Economy, Competitiveness and Shipping, No. REG 6015/06 / V/86/135 and GSC Reg. No. 223101000 and its term of duration is set at one hundred (100) years, which began from the publication in the Government Gazette of the Royal Decree approving its memorandum of association. In addition, the General Meeting of Shareholders held as at 19/06/20015, decided to extend the company's term of duration for fifty (50) years and amend, in this respect, Article 4 of the Articles of Incorporation. The company has been operating continuously since its foundation, over ninety nine consecutive years.

The Group objective is acquisition, construction and operation of hotels in Athens and elsewhere in Greece or abroad, as well as related businesses, such as acquisition and / or exploitation of thermal spring water, resorts, public entertainment, clubs, etc. The Company website is www.lampsa.gr.

The shares of the Group are listed on the Athens Stock Exchange since 1946.

The interim six-month financial statements were approved for issue by the Company Board of Directors on 27 September, 2019.

The company LAMPSA and Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide Inc, signed an agreement on management and hotel operation in December 2001. According to the agreement, Starwood, agreed to provide management and operation services to the hotel «Grande Bretagne». The term of the Management Agreement is initially of twenty five (25) years, with option to extend for another 25 years. Both companies have limited rights to terminate the agreement without reason. In 2013, the agreement was extended in order to include the management of the King George Hotel as well.

There was also signed a management agreement with Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. and «Sheraton Rhodes Resort» Hotel. The agreement concerns the assumption of operational management of the hotel (operating services agreement).

It is to be noted that in 2016, the company Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. was acquired by Marriott International Inc., and, therefore, Marriott International Inc. manages all three hotels.

2.2. Basis for preparation of Interim Six-month Financial Statements

LAMPSA Group has fully adopted all IFRSs and interpretations adopted by the European Union and their application is mandatory for the preparation of corporate and consolidated financial statements for the current period.

The Company interim six-month Financial Statements as of 30/06/2019 cover the period from January, 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019 and have been prepared in compliance with International Accounting Standard («IAS») 34 «Interim Financial Reporting».

The accounting policies based on which the interim six-month Financial Statements were prepared and are presented are in accordance with those used in the preparation of the Group and the Company Annual Financial Statements for the FY ended as at December 31, 2019, apart from amendments to the standards, effective as from 01/01/2019.

The interim six-month Financial Statements shall be considered in line with the annual financial statements as of December 31st, 2018, which are available on the parent Company's website www.lampsa.gr.

The interim six-month Financial Statements for the period 1/1 – 30/06/2019 have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified due to revaluation of certain assets and liabilities at fair value and going concern principle.

The preparation of interim six-month Financial Statements according to IFRSs requires use of accounting estimates and judgments of the Management under the application of the accounting principles. It also requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,

Six-month Financial Report for the period from January 1 to June 30, 2019 All the amounts are expressed in thousands of Euro unless stated otherwise

disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on the best knowledge of the Management with respect to current events and actions, actual results may finally differ from those estimates.

2.3. Changes to Accounting Policies

2.3.1 New Standards, Interpretations, Revisions and Amendments to existing Standards that are effective and have been adopted by the European Union

The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments of IFRSs have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), are adopted by the European Union, and their application is mandatory from or after 01/01/2019.

IFRS 16 "Leases" (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2019)

In January 2016, the IASB issued a new Standard, IFRS 16. The objective of the project was to develop a new Leases Standard that sets out the principles that both parties to a contract, i.e. the customer ('lessee') and the supplier ('lessor'), apply to provide relevant information about leases in a manner that faithfully represents those transactions. To meet this objective, a lessee is required to recognise assets and liabilities arising from a lease. The effect of the new Standard is analytically reported in notes 2.4, 2.6 and 2.11.

IFRIC 23 "Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments" (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2019)

In June 2017, the IASB issued a new Interpretation, IFRIC 23. IAS 12 "Income Taxes" specifies how to account for current and deferred tax, but not how to reflect the effects of uncertainty. IFRIC 23 provides requirements that add to the requirements in IAS 12 by specifying how to reflect the effects of uncertainty in accounting for income taxes. The new Interpretation affect does not affect the consolidated and separate Financial Statements.

Amendments to IFRS 9: "Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation" (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2019)

In October 2017, the IASB published narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 9. Under the existing requirements of IFRS 9, an entity would have measured a financial asset with negative compensation at fair value through profit or loss as the "negative compensation" feature would have been viewed as introducing potential cash flows that were not solely payments of principal and interest. Under the amendments, companies are allowed to measure particular prepayable financial assets with so-called negative compensation at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income if a specified condition is met. The amendments do not affect the consolidated and separate Financial Statements.

Amendments to IAS 28: "Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures" (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2019)

In October 2017, the IASB published narrow-scope amendments to IAS 28. The objective of the amendments is to clarify that companies account for long-term interests in an associate or joint venture – to which the equity method is not applied – using IFRS 9. The amendments do not affect the consolidated and separate Financial Statements.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs – 2015-2017 Cycle (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2019)

In December 2017, the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRSs – 2015-2017 Cycle, a collection of amendments to IFRSs, in response to several issues addressed during the 2015-2017 cycle. The issues included in this cycle are the following: IFRS 3 - IFRS 11: Previously held interest in a joint operation, IAS 12: Income tax consequences of payments on financial instruments classified as equity, IAS 23: Borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The amendments do not affect the consolidated and separate Financial Statements.

Amendments to IAS 19: "Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement" (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2019)

In February 2018, the IASB published narrow-scope amendments to IAS 19, under which an entity is required to use updated assumptions to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the reporting period after an amendment, curtailment or settlement to a plan. The objective of the amendments is to enhance the understanding of the financial statements and provide useful information to the users. The amendments do not significantly affect the consolidated and separate Financial Statements.

2.3.2 New Standards, Interpretations, Revisions and Amendments to existing Standards that have not been applied yet or have not been adopted by the European Union

The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments of IFRSs have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), but their application has not started yet or they have not been adopted by the European Union.

Revision of the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2020)

In March 2018, the IASB issued the revised Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework), the objective of which was to incorporate some important issues that were not covered, as well as update and clarify some guidance that was unclear or out of date. The revised Conceptual Framework includes a new chapter on measurement, which analyzes the concept on measurement, including factors to be considered when selecting a measurement basis, concepts on presentation and disclosure, and guidance on derecognition of assets and liabilities from financial statements. In addition, the revised Conceptual Framework includes improved definitions of an asset and a liability, guidance supporting these definitions, update of recognition criteria for assets and liabilities, as well as clarifications in important areas, such as the roles of stewardship, prudence and measurement uncertainty in financial reporting. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.

Amendments to References to the Conceptual Framework in IFRS Standards (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2020)

In March 2018, the IASB issued Amendments to References to the Conceptual Framework, following its revision. Some Standards include explicit references to previous versions of the Conceptual Framework. The objective of these amendments is to update those references so that they refer to the revised Conceptual Framework and to support transition to the revised Conceptual Framework. The Group will

examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.

Amendments to IFRS 3: "Definition of a Business" (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2020)

In October 2018, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 3 to improve the definition of a business. The amendments will help companies determine whether an acquisition made is of a business or a group of assets. The amended definition emphasizes that the output of a business is to provide goods and services to customers, whereas the previous definition focused on returns in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits to investors and others. In addition to amending the wording of the definition, the Board has provided supplementary guidance. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.

Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8: "Definition of Material" (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2020)

In October 2018, the IASB issued amendments to its definition of material to make it easier for companies to make materiality judgements. The definition of material helps companies decide whether information should be included in their financial statements. The updated definition amends IAS 1 and IAS 8. The amendments clarify the definition of material and how it should be applied by including in the definition guidance that until now has featured elsewhere in IFRS Standards. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.

IFRS 17 "Insurance Contracts" (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2021)

In May 2017, the IASB issued a new Standard, IFRS 17, which replaces an interim Standard, IFRS 4. The aim of the project was to provide a single principle-based standard to account for all types of insurance contracts, including reinsurance contracts that an insurer holds. A single principle-based standard would enhance comparability of financial reporting among entities, jurisdictions and capital markets. IFRS 17 sets out the requirements that an entity should apply in reporting information about insurance contracts it issues and reinsurance contracts it holds. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.

2.4. Effect of changes in accounting policies

On January first, 2019, the Group and the Company adopted IFRS 16 "Leases". Following IFRS 16 "Leases" adoption, the Group as lessee recognizes in the statement of financial position the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The accounting treatment of leases for lessors remains the same as that under IAS 17.

The Group applied the new Standard using the simplified transition method. According to this method, the comparative information of the previous year has not been restated, while the cumulative effect of the application is recognized on 1 January 2019.

The Group and the Company present the right-of-use assets in the "Tangible Assets" account within the respective categories of owned tangible assets. The right-of-use assets are analysed in note 2.6.

Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the leases that will be paid over the entire term of the lease discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease or if this interest rate cannot be determined by the incremental borrowing rate. The average interest rate determined for the Group and the Company is 3.36% and 3.19% respectively. Lease liabilities are analysed in note 2.11.

After the commencement date of the lease period, the lessee will measure the lease liability as follows: (a) by increasing the carrying amount in order to reflect the financial cost and the lease liability; (b) by decreasing the carrying amount in order to reflect the payments effected; and (c) by remeasuring the carrying amount in order to reflect any reassessment or modification of the lease.

The right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently decreased by the amount of accumulated depreciation and impairment. Finally, they are adjusted to specific remeasurement of the respective lease liability.

In the first application of IFRS 16, the Group used the following practical facilities permitted by the standard:

  • Using a single discount rate on a lease portfolio with similar characteristics

  • Use of accounting for operating leases for leases with a maturity of less than 12 months from 1 January 2019.

In addition, the Group has selected to use recognition exemptions of the Standard for leases that, at their commencement date, have term of duration 12 months or less and do not include redemption rights (short-term leases), as well as leases of fixed assets of no significant value such as rentals for audiovisual events.

2.5. Segment reporting

In accordance with the provisions of IFRS 8, the identification of operating segments is based on the "Management approach". According to this approach, the information to be disclosed regarding the operating segments should be based on internal organizational and management structure of the Group and the main items of internal financial reporting provided to the key decision makers. The Management monitors the operating results of its operating segments separately for the purpose of making decisions on resource allocation and performance assessment thereof. It is to be noted that the Group applies the same accounting principles for the measurement of operating segment's results as those in the Financial Statements.

Transactions between operating segments are performed within the regular business operations of the Group. Inter-segment sales are eliminated on consolidation.

The operating segments presented include renting rooms, food and beverage sales and other activities (Income SPA-Health Club, Telephone Revenue, etc.). The Group results, assets and liabilities per segment in respect of the presented periods are analyzed as follows:

Therefore, actuarial gains and losses, presented in a fiscal year, will be recognized fully and directly in the Statement of Comprehensive Income for this year and will be presented in separate reserves, Actuarial results reserves, in Equity of the Group and the Company.

From the above, the statutory reserve is mandatory formed from the profits of each financial year and remains in equity of the Company to offset any losses incurred in the future and is taxed in each period in which they were formed and therefore is tax exempted.

As far as the remaining reserves are concerned, they can be distributed to shareholders given that the attributable tax has been paid.

2.11. Lease Liabilities

In the current FY, the Group and the Company recognized lease liabilities in accordance with the provisions of the new Standard IFRS 16 "Leases".

The liabilities recognized in the Company arise from leases for offices and warehouses for a period exceeding 12 months.

The Group's liabilities arise from the newly established subsidiary KRIEZOTOU TOURISTIKI SINGLE MEMBER S.A. in which the contract signed by the parent company with the AUXILIARY FUND OF FORMER EMPLOYEES OF THE AGRICULTURAL BANK OF GREECE . ("ATPPEATE") was transferred and provided for the lease of the King's Palace Hotel for 30 years. The contract provides for a fixed rent which from the 4th year will be adjusted based on the CPI plus margin and a variable rent depending on the hotel's turnover per year. Variable lease payments dependent on turnover are not included in the minimum future payments used to measure the right-of-use asset and the lease liability. Variable lease payments that are dependent on turnover will burden the results of the FY in which they are recorded as receivables. The hotel is in the process of being fully reconstructed and is expected to open in April 2020 while no fixed or variable rentals have been paid.

The Group's and the Company's lease liabilities are analyzed as follows:

2.12. Results for the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019

In the first six-month of 2019, the Greek tourism sector presented a stabilizing and slightly decreasing trend after six years of continuous upward trend. The increase in arrivals at Greek airports was not capitalized on hotel sizes, possibly due to the spread on AIRBNB-type platforms.

Stabilization in room occupancy ration can also be observed in the Serbian hotel market, after the increase of the last two years, since demand is showing signs of recovery, assisted by the new foundations caused by Serbia's admission to the EU (airports, privatization of air transportation operator etc.). However, an increase in revenue has not been recorded owing to extensive competition from a high number of new hotels in the Belgrade area.

Room occupancy ration of the luxury hotel market in Athens decreased by 4.5% compared to the corresponding period in 2018, adjusting the ration to 69.3% versus 72.5% in 2018. Average hotel room rate increased by 2.9% versus of 2018, standing at € 169.31 versus € 164.56 in 2018. As a result, revenue per room available at Athens luxury hotels decreased by 1.7% (€ 117.29 versus € 119.37 in 2018) and correspondingly total room revenue decreased by 0.1%.

"Great Britain" Hotel presented sales increase of 0.85% compared to the corresponding period last year, while "King George" Hotel presented sales decrease by 3.27% and "Sheraton" Hotel in Rhodes 6.5%. Regarding Group Hotels in Serbia, "Hyatt Regency Belgrade" recorded a marginal increase of 0.46%, while "Mercure Excelsior" recorded decrease of 10.78% due to its excellent performance in hosting sports events last year which has not been repeated this year.

Regarding EBITDA, due to the incorporation of Sheraton Hotel there is a marginal decrease in the Group from € 9.12 million in the comparative period to € 8.67 million in the current period, and respectively in the Company from € 7.28 million in the comparative period to € 7 million in the current period.

For the unaudited tax years of the Group companies, there is a probability that additional taxes and penalties could be imposed, during the period when they are examined and finalized by the relevant tax authorities.

For the FY 2011-2017 inclusively, the parent company and TOURISTIKA THERETRA S.A. were subject to tax audit of the Certified Public Accountants as provided by Article 82 para 5 Law 2238/1994 and Article 65a , Law 4174/2013, as amended by Law 4262/2014.

For the fiscal years 2015-2017, tax authorities audit the parent company based on the audit order dated 14/05/2019 for all tax items. In addition, it was notified // audit order on 10/06/2019 for the former company TOURISTIKA THERETRA SA, which was absorbed by the parent company in the previous fiscal year, for the fiscal year 2016-2017 for Income Taxes and VAT issues. The above audits are ongoing and no findings have yet been disclosed.

For the fiscal year 2018, the special audit to obtain the Tax Compliance Report is ongoing and is not expected to result in significant differences with substantial differentiation in the tax liabilities reflected in the financial statements. According to latest relevant legislation, the audit and issuance of tax certificates is valid for fiscal years 2017 and thereafter, on an optional basis.

2.21. Objectives and Risk management policies

The Group is exposed to financial risks such as market risk (fluctuations in exchange rates, interest rates, market prices, etc.), credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Group's financial instruments are composed of bank deposits, overdraft rights, trade receivables and payables, loans to subsidiaries, associated companies, dividends payable and lease obligations.

Since 2008, the Group applies a risk management program for such risks. The risk management program aims to limit the negative impact on the financial results of the group caused by the unpredictability of financial markets and the variation in the variables of cost and revenue. The group intends to use, in the near future, derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to specific risk categories.

The risk management process applied by the Group, is as follows:

  • Evaluation of risks associated with the activities and operations of the group,
  • design of methodology and selection of appropriate financial products to reduce risks and
  • application / implementation, in accordance with the procedure approved by the management, of the risk management procedures.

Currency Risk

The Group operates internationally and carries out trade and loan transaction in foreign currency. Therefore, it is exposed to foreign currency translation differences (another major country of the Group's operations, apart from Greece, is Serbia). The Parent Company exposure to currency risk arises mainly from the bond loan issued in US Dollars.

Credit Risk

Over 80% of Group's sales are performed through credit cards, the credit sales though are made to customers with evaluated credit history.

Liquidity Risk

As at 30/06/2019, the Group had negative working capital, as current liabilities exceed current assets by € 4,7 million (parent company € 10,6 million). A significant part of current liabilities (19%% regarding the Group and the parent company) pertains to short-term debt and contractual liabilities of € 3,7 million which does not constitute cash outflow but future liability of rendering services to customers. During the current period, a Common Bond Loan of € 80 million was signed, of which € 69 million has been disbursed as of 30/06/2019, repaying short-term borrowings of the previous period.

Furthermore, the Group's and the Company's Working Capital needs are expected to be covered by the operating inflows expected to be achieved within the following periods, as seasonality is presented in the Group's activity where the occupancy in the spring months is almost double that of the corresponding winter period.

Two major shareholders of the parent company "NAMSOS ENTERPRISES COMPANY LIMITED" and "DRYNA ENTERPRISES COMPANY LIMITED" representing 30,93% of the share capital each one (total 61,86%), although it is estimated that it will not be necessary, are committed to cover working capital subsequent needs for at least the next twelve months from the date of approval of the interim financial statements of 30/06/2018.

Risk of Changes of Fair Value due to Changes in Interest Rates

The Group's policy is to minimize its exposure to the risk of changes of fair value due to changes in interest rates as far as long-term financing is concerned. On June 30, 2019, the Company and the Group are exposed to the risk of changes in market interest regarding their bank borrowings, which, however, is estimated as low.

2.22. Post Interim Period Balance Sheet Events

On July 26, 2019, "Kriezotou Touristiki Single Member SA (Issuer) and "Lampsa Greek Hotels SA" (Bondholder Lender) signed a Common Bond Loan of € 16 million with a maturity of 10 years, with the sole purpose of financing the reconstruction of the hotel "MGallery", owned by the AUXILIARY FUND OF FORMER EMPLOYEES OF THE AGRICULTURAL BANK OF GREECE ("ATPPEATE"), under the existing lease agreement of the aforementioned hotel.

There are no other post Financial Statements events regarding either the Group or the Company that shall be reported under the international Financial Reporting Standards.
