BOARD OF DIRECTORS REPORT for the period 01.01.2018 – 30.06.2018

Kifissia, 30th July 2018

Financial Review

Six Months Ended June 30, 2018

Group's net sales revenue increased by 21,8% year‐on‐year to €248,1 million in the six months ended 30 June 2018. This increase primarily reflects higher year‐on‐year commercial refrigeration (ICM) sales in Europe and Africa, as well as, a favourable market environment in our Nigerian Glass operations.

Commercial refrigeration net sales revenue increased by 19,9% year‐on‐year in the six months ended 30 June 2018, primarily driven by ICM placements from Coca‐Cola bottlers in Europe and Africa. In Eastern Europe, net sales revenue increased 26,5%, reflecting growth across most of our markets. Sales in Western Europe increased by 10,9%, mainly driven by orders from the Coca‐Cola bottlers in Italy, Greece and the United Kingdom. Sales in Germany and France were down year‐on‐year following strong orders in the prior year period. This is the tenth consecutive quarter of positive growth in Western Europe. In Africa and Middle East, net sales revenue increased more than two‐fold, driven by increased ICM investments by a key customer in Nigeria and market share gains with Coca‐Cola bottlers in North Africa. Net sales revenue in Asia declined by 30,9%, mainly led by lower demand in India.

The Glass business reported a strong performance in the six months ended 30 June 2018, with net sales revenue increasing by 29,7% following solid demand for glass containers and plastic crates, as well as, price initiatives. This performance was tempered by lower orders in the metal crowns business. In local currency terms, net sales revenue increased by approximately 44% year‐on‐year. Supported by ongoing economic recovery and the recent startup of an international beverage player's Nigerian brewery in Sagamu, the beer segment enjoyed solid demand growth in the first half of the year. Our plastic crates business benefited from increasing glass related demand from breweries and soft drink customers, with sales growing in double digits. Sales in our metal crowns business were lower year‐on‐year due to weak demand from a key soft drink customer, more than offsetting the positive impact of price increases.

Cost of goods sold increased by 18,2% to €200,7 million, as a result of higher year‐ on‐year volume growth. Cost of goods sold was benefited by ICM plants productivity related savings and the positive impact from the devaluation of Nigeria's Naira. Overall, cost of goods sold as a percentage of the Group's net sales revenue improved to 80,9%, from 83,4% last year, driven by a better fixed cost absorption due to the incremental sales volume in the commercial refrigeration business, a sales mix towards higher‐margin coolers, our focus on realising further productivity savings and volume growth in the Nigeria‐based glass container business.

Administrative expenses grew 3,8% to €10,6 million, mainly due to increased third‐ party fees and IT related expenses. The ratio of administrative expenses to net sales revenue improved to 4,3%, from 5,0% in the prior year period.

Selling, distribution and marketing expenses increased by 2,5% to €10,9 million, driven by higher warranty related expenses due to higher sales and travelling expenses. As a percentage of net sales revenue, selling, distribution and marketing expenses improved to 4,4%, from 5,2% last year.

Research and development expenses decreased by 13,1% to €1,8 million, driven by lower year‐on‐year depreciation charges and miscellaneous expenses. As a percentage of net sales revenue, research and development expenses improved to 0,7%, from 1,0% in the prior year period.

Other income was €2,1 million, compared €4,1 million last year. The decline primarily reflects last year's insurance compensation.

Finance costs increased by 2,4% year‐on‐year to €12,1 million, adversely affected by foreign exchange losses mainly caused by the impact of Naira's appreciation on Euro denominated receivables.

In the six months ended 30 June 2018, the Group incurred restructuring costs of €0,3 million related to the termination of one production shift in Indonesia. Frigoglass incurred restructuring costs of €25,6 million in the six months ended 30 June 2017 related to the Group's capital restructuring process.

Income tax expense increased by 21,4% to €8,5 million, driven by higher year‐on‐ year pre‐tax profits in Nigeria and Russia.

Frigoglass reported net losses of €5,1 million from discontinued operations, impacted by provisions of €2,0 million, compared to losses of €4,9 million in the prior year period. Including discontinued operations, Frigoglass reported net losses of €4,5 million, impacted by impairment charges of €2,1 million related to the performance of our business in India, compared to losses of €36,9 million last year.

Cash Flow

Net cash from/(used in) operating activities

Net cash from operating activities amounted to €21,0 million, compared to €1,6 million in the prior year period. This improvement mainly reflects a higher year‐on‐ year operating profit and lower restructuring costs.

Net cash from/(used in) investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities amounted to €6,3 million, compared to €4,2 million in the prior year period. The increase was driven by higher capital spending on materials and machinery related to a furnace cold repair in Nigeria, as well as, efficiency enhancement and capacity increase related projects in Romania.

Net cash from/(used in) financing activities

Net cash from financing activities amounted to €0,7 million, compared to €3,2 million in the prior year period. This decrease reflects higher interest paid in the period, compared to last year.

Net trade working capital

Net trade working capital from continuing operations as of 30 June 2018 amounted to €126,7 million, compared to €95,4 million in the prior year period. This increase reflects inventory build‐up following sustained demand in the next couple of months, higher trade receivables due to the top‐line growth in 2Q18 and lower trade payables following the normalisation of payments due to the completion of the capital restructuring.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures from continuing operations amounted to €7,1 million, of which €6,1 million related to the purchase of property, plant and equipment and €1,0 million related to the purchase of intangible assets, compared to €4,5 million in the prior year period, of which €3,7 million related to the purchase of property, plant and equipment and €0,8 million related to the purchase of intangible assets.

Business Outlook

Our first half performance is in‐line with our expectations. In an improving economic landscape in key markets and based on the current momentum in the business, we continue to expect sales growth in 2018. We also anticipate first half sales growth to slow down in the full year following exceptionally high orders from Coca‐Cola bottlers in the fourth quarter of last year.

In Europe, we remain focused on leveraging ICOOL's success and increasing our penetration in the medium‐to‐low priced segment of the market through new product ranges. We also expect growth momentum to continue in Africa, driven by increased demand. In the highly competitive Asian market, we focus on new product launches to support our top‐line in the second half of the year. In Glass, the underlying trend of our business remains strong. The cold repair which was successfully completed in one of our furnaces in July adds capacity in the market.

This underscores our confidence for improving our performance going forward. We remain focused on operational excellence through cost reduction initiatives for the remainder of the year. In our journey towards achieving procurement excellence, we have prioritized certain actions that will sharpen our strategic category approach and also improve our purchasing strategies. We are also continuing to implement productivity and other efficiency improvement projects to assist our profitability journey.

Main Risks and Uncertainties

This Interim Condensed Financial Information for the period 01.01.2018 to 30.06.2018 has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union and specifically in terms of IAS 34, 'Interim financial reporting'.

The Interim Condensed Financial Information should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017 that are available on the company's web page www.frigoglass.com.

These financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and IFRIC interpretations as adopted by the European Union, and International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the IASB.

The financial statements have been prepared according to the going concern basis of accounting. The use of this basis of accounting takes into consideration the Group's current and forecasted financing position.

The Group reported Profit after income tax expenses from continuing operations €3,5m, compared to after income tax expenses from continuing operations €29,3 m. for the previous period.

The total consolidated current liabilities of the group amounted to €196,7m and the total consolidated current assets amounted to €314,2m.

Frigoglass S.A.I.C. has an equity position of €24,5m, therefore, is lower than half (1/2) of the share capital. As a consequence, the requirements of article 47 of the Companies Act 2190/1920 are applicable.

The tight liquidity in 2017 and 2018 in the foreign exchange market in Nigeria has significantly limited our ability to execute payments in foreign currency, leading to a high Nigerian Naira cash balance of € 26 m.. We expect the excess cash to be utilised among others to fund capital expenditure and raw material purchases over the coming years.

The Committed unutilized Revolving Credit Facilities ( RCFs ) amounted to €11,7m.

Within the framework of the Group's business policy, management is targeting to reduce costs, improve long‐term profitability and generate cash flows, coupled with maintaining and improving product quality and increasing customer value. Management has undertaken specific actions to achieve the above, including (a) cost reduction through the simplification of the product portfolio; (b) reduction of inventory levels; (c) Lean manufacturing alongside improvements in product quality; and (d) creating value from recent strategic investments.

On April 2018, the Company reached an agreement to sell the entire share capital of its glass container subsidiary Frigoglass Jebel Ali FZE. The transaction is expected to be completed in the second half of 2018, while it is anticipated that the proceeds of the sale, after certain deductions including transaction related fees and expenses, will be applied towards the reduction of Frigoglass' first lien debt.

The Group's financial projections for the upcoming 12 months indicate that it will be able to meet its obligations as they fall due, however, this assessment is subject to a number of risks as described in the "Risks and uncertainties" section of the Directors' Report and in Note 3 to the Group's annual financial statements, particularly if such risks were to materialize in combination.

Taking into consideration the above, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group will be able to successfully navigate the present uncertainties and continue its operation. Therefore, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Risks and uncertainties

The Group is exposed to a number of risks. The risks and uncertainties are described in detail in the Annual Financial Report and relate specifically to the Group or the ICM and Glass Operations.

Events after balance sheet date and other information

There are no other post‐balance events which are likely to affect the financial statements or the operations of the Group and the Parent company apart from the ones mentioned above.

Report on Review of Interim Financial Information

To the Board of directors of Frigoglass SAIC

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed company and consolidated statement of financial position of Frigoglass SAIC (the "Company"), as of 30 June 2018 and the related condensed company and consolidated statements of profit or loss, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flow statements for the six-month period then ended, and the selected explanatory notes that comprise the interim condensed financial information and which form an integral part of the six-month financial report as required by L.3556/2007. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this condensed interim financial information in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as they have been adopted by the European Union and applied to interim financial reporting (International Accounting Standard "IAS 34"). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim condensed financial information 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 Standards on Auditing, as they have been transposed into Greek Law 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 financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

Notes to the Interim Condensed Financial Statements

Note 1 ‐ General Information

These Interim Condensed Financial Statements ( the "Financial Statements") include the financial statements of the Parent Company FRIGOGLASS S.A.I.C. (the "Company") and the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (the "Group"). The names of the subsidiaries are presented in Note 14 of the financial statements.

FRIGOGLASS S.A.I.C. and its subsidiaries are engaged in the manufacturing, trade and distribution of commercial refrigeration units and packaging materials for the beverage industry. The Group has manufacturing plants and sales offices in Europe, Asia and Africa.

The Company is a limited liability company incorporated and based in Kifissia, Attica.

The Company's' shares are listed on the Athens Stock Exchange.

The address of its registered office is:

15, A. Metaxa Street GR 145 64, Kifissia Athens, Hellas

The company's web page is: www.frigoglass.com

The interim condensed financial statements have been approved by the Board of Directors on 30th July 2018.

Note 2 – Basis of Preparation

This Interim Condensed Financial Information for the period 01.01.2018 to 30.06.2018 has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union and specifically in terms of IAS 34, 'Interim financial reporting'.

The Interim Condensed Financial Information should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017 that are available on the company's web page www.frigoglass.com.

The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for assets held for sale which are measured at fair value less cost of disposal.

Differences that may exist between the figures of the financial statement and those of the notes are due to rounding. Wherever it was necessary, the comparative figures have been reclassified in order to be comparable with the current year's presentation.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the going concern basis of accounting. The use of this basis of accounting takes into consideration the Group's current and forecasted financing position.

The Group reported Profit after income tax expenses from continuing operations €3,5m, compared to after income tax expenses from continuing operations €29,3 m. for the previous period.

The total consolidated current liabilities of the group amounted to €196,7m and the total consolidated current assets amounted to €314,2m.

Frigoglass S.A.I.C. has an equity position of €24,5m, therefore, is lower than half (1/2) of the share capital. As a consequence, the requirements of article 47 of the Companies Act 2190/1920 are applicable.

Within the framework of the Group's business policy, management is targeting to reduce costs, improve long‐term profitability and generate cash flows, coupled with maintaining and improving product quality and increasing customer value. Management has undertaken specific actions to achieve the above, including (a) cost reduction through the simplification of the product portfolio; (b) reduction of inventory levels; (c) Lean manufacturing alongside improvements in product quality; and (d) creating value from recent strategic investments.

On April 2018, the Company reached an agreement to sell the entire share capital of its glass container subsidiary Frigoglass Jebel Ali FZE. The transaction is expected to be completed in the second half of 2018, while it is anticipated that the proceeds of the sale, after certain deductions including transaction related fees and expenses, will be applied towards the reduction of Frigoglass' first lien debt.

The Group's financial projections for the upcoming 12 months indicate that it will be able to meet its obligations as they fall due, however, this assessment is subject to a number of risks as described in the "Risks and uncertainties" section of the Directors' Report and in Note 3 to the Group's financial statements, particularly if such risks were to materialize in combination.

Taking into consideration the above, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group will be able to successfully navigate the present uncertainties and continue its operation. Therefore, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Note 3 – Principal accounting policies

The accounting policies adopted in preparing this Interim Condensed Financial Information are consistent with those described in the Company and Group annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017.

With the exception of the new standards, IFRS 9 for Financial Instruments and IFRS 15 for the Revenue from Contracts with Customers, there have been no changes in the accounting policies that were used for the preparation of the annual financial statements prepared by the Company and the Group for the year ended 31 December 2017.

The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for assets held for sale which are measured at fair value less cost of disposal.

The preparation of these Interim Condensed Financial Information in accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in the process of applying the accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 4.

New standards, amendments to standards and interpretations:

Certain new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued that are mandatory for periods beginning on or after 01.01.2018.

None of the standards and interpretations issued is expected to have a significant effect on the Consolidated or the Parent Company financial statements with the exception of IFRS 16 "Leases" effective after 1 January 2019.

For IFRS 16 "Leases" effective for annual periods after 1 January 2019 the management of the company is evaluating the impact on the Consolidated or the Parent Company financial statements.

Standards and Interpretations effective for the current financial year

IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" and subsequent amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

IFRS 9 replaces the guidance in IAS 39 which deals with the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities and it also includes an expected credit losses model that replaces the incurred loss impairment model that was applied under IAS 39. IFRS 9 establishes a more principles‐based approach to hedge accounting and addresses inconsistencies and weaknesses in the previous model in IAS 39.

The Group and the Company applied the Standard from 1 January 2018 retrospectively, without revising comparative information from previous years.

During 2017, the Group and the Company completed their study of the requirements of IFRS 9 on Classification and Measurement (including impairment), concluding that their financial instruments will be accounted for in a manner similar to IAS 39. In particular, the examination of the business model and cash flow characteristics does not affect the classification and measurement of trade and other receivables of the Group and the Company that will continue to be measured at amortized cost. The effect of the new impairment model was also examined. The Group and the Company have determined that their trade receivables and other financial assets generally have a low credit risk.

The effect of applying the new model of expected loss to the Group and the Company does not affect the financial statements.

IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers"

IFRS 15 has been issued in May 2014. The objective of the standard is to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers to improve comparability within industries, across industries, and across capital markets. It contains principles that an entity will apply to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when it is recognised. The underlying principle is that an entity recognises revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The Group and the Company adopted the Standard on January 1, 2018.

The Group and the Company examined contracts with customers in order to identify changes in the time or amount of revenue recognition including receipts from sales of commercial refrigeration, service provision, and sales of glass.

Results have shown that no adjustment is required during the transition.

IFRS 4 (Amendments) "Applying IFRS 9 Financial instruments with IFRS 4 Insurance contracts"

The amendments introduce two approaches. The amended standard: a) gives all companies that issue insurance contracts the option to recognise in other comprehensive income, rather than profit or loss, the volatility that could arise when IFRS 9 is applied before the new insurance contracts standard is issued; and b) gives companies, whose activities are predominantly connected with insurance, an optional temporary exemption from applying IFRS 9 until 2021. The entities that have elected to defer the application of IFRS 9 continue to apply the existing financial instruments standard—IAS 39.

IFRS 2 (Amendments) "Classification and measurement of Shared‐based Payment transactions"

The amendment clarifies the measurement basis for cash‐settled, share‐based payments and the accounting for modifications that change an award from cash‐settled to equity‐ settled. It also introduces an exception to the principles in IFRS 2 that will require an award to be treated as if it was wholly equity‐settled, where an employer is obliged to withhold an amount for the employee's tax obligation associated with a share‐based payment and pay that amount to the tax authority.

IAS 40 (Amendments) "Transfers of Investment Property"

The amendments clarified that to transfer to, or from, investment properties there must be a change in use. To conclude if a property has changed use there should be an assessment of whether the property meets the definition and the change must be supported by evidence.

IFRIC 22 "Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration"

The interpretation provides guidance on how to determine the date of the transaction when applying the standard on foreign currency transactions, IAS 21. The interpretation applies where an entity either pays or receives consideration in advance for foreign currency‐denominated contracts.

Annual Improvements to IFRS 2014 (2014 – 2016 Cycle)

IAS 28 "Investments in associates and Joint ventures"

The amendments clarified that when venture capital organisations, mutual funds, unit trusts and similar entities use the election to measure their investments in associates or joint ventures at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), this election should be made separately for each associate or joint venture at initial recognition.

Standards and Interpretations effective for subsequent periods

IFRS 9 (Amendments) "Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The amendments allow companies 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—instead of at fair value through profit or loss.

IFRS 16 "Leases" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

IFRS 16 has been issued in January 2016 and supersedes IAS 17. The objective of the standard is to ensure the lessees and lessors provide relevant information in a manner that faithfully represents those transactions. IFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently.

For IFRS 16 "Leases" effective for annual periods after 1 January 2019 the management of the company is evaluating the impact on the Consolidated or the Parent Company financial statements.

IFRS 17 "Insurance contracts" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021)

IFRS 17 has been issued in May 2017 and supersedes IFRS 4. IFRS 17 establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts within the scope of the Standard and its objective is to ensure that an entity provides relevant information that faithfully represents those contracts. The new standard solves the comparison problems created by IFRS 4 by requiring all insurance contracts to be accounted for in a consistent manner. Insurance obligations will be accounted for using current values instead of historical cost. The standard has not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IAS 28 (Amendments) "Long term interests in associates and joint ventures" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The amendments 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 have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRIC 23 "Uncertainty over income tax treatments" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The interpretation explains how to recognise and measure deferred and current income tax assets and liabilities where there is uncertainty over a tax treatment. IFRIC 23 applies to all

aspects of income tax accounting where there is such uncertainty, including taxable profit or loss, the tax bases of assets and liabilities, tax losses and credits and tax rates. The interpretation has not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IAS 19 (Amendments) "Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The amendments specify how companies determine pension expenses when changes to a defined benefit pension plan occur. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

Annual Improvements to IFRS (2015 – 2017 Cycle) (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The amendments set out below include changes to four IFRSs. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRS 3 "Business combinations"

The amendments clarify that a company remeasures its previously held interest in a joint operation when it obtains control of the business.

IFRS 11 "Joint arrangements"

The amendments clarify that a company does not remeasure its previously held interest in a joint operation when it obtains joint control of the business.

IAS 12 "Income taxes"

The amendments clarify that a company accounts for all income tax consequences of dividend payments in the same way.

IAS 23 "Borrowing costs"

The amendments clarify that a company treats as part of general borrowings any borrowing originally made to develop an asset when the asset is ready for its intended use or sale.

Note 4 ‐ Critical accounting estimates and judgements

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under current circumstances.

4.1 Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year concern income tax.

4.1.1 Income Taxes

The Group is subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. Significant judgement is required by the Group Management in determining the worldwide provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. If the final tax outcome is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax.

4.1.2 Estimated impairment of goodwill

The Group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 2.6.1. of the annual financial statements. The recoverable amounts of cash‐generating units have been determined based on value‐in‐use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates.

4.1.3. Estimated impairment of investments

The Group's investments in subsidiaries are tested for impairment when indications exist that its carrying value may not be recoverable. The recoverable amount of the investments in subsidiaries is determined on value in use calculations, which requires the use of assumptions. The calculations use cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a one year period and cash projections for four additional years. At 30.06.2018 the Company has an investment in Frigoinvest Holdings B.V. of €60 m, which holds the Group's subsidiaries in the ICM and Glass segments which represent the two identifiable, separate cash generating units. Based on the assessment performed by management no impairment charge was recognized with respect to the Company's investment in subsidiary.

4.1.4. Estimation of useful lives of fixed assets

The Group assesses on an annual basis, the useful lives of its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. These estimates take into account the relevant operational facts and circumstances, the future plans of Management and the market conditions that exist as at the date of the assessment.

4.1.5. Provision for doubtful debts

The provision for doubtful debts has been based on the outstanding balances of specific debtors after taking into account their ageing and the agreed credit terms. This process has excluded receivables from subsidiaries as Management is of the view that these receivables are not likely to require an impairment provision. The analysis of the provision is presented in Note 9.

4.1.6. Staff retirement benefit obligations

The present value of the retirement benefit obligations depend on a number of factors that are determined on an actuarial basis using a number of assumptions. The assumptions used in determining the relevant obligation comprises the discount rate, the expected return on plan assets, the rate of compensation increase, the rate of inflation and future estimated pension increases. Any changes in these assumptions will impact the carrying amount of the retirement benefit obligations. The Group determines the amount of the retirement benefit obligations using suitably qualified independent actuaries at each year‐end's balance sheet date

4.1.7. Estimated impairment of property, plant & equipment

The Group's property, plant & equipment is tested for impairment when indications exist that its carrying value may not be recoverable. The recoverable amount of the property, plant & equipment is determined under IAS 36 at the higher of its value in use and fair value less costs of disposal. When the recoverable amount is determined on a value in use basis, the use of assumptions is required.

4.2 Critical judgements in applying the entity's accounting policies

There are no areas that Management required to make critical judgements in applying accounting policies.

4.3 Financial risk management

The group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk, cash flow interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The condensed interim financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements; they should be read in conjunction with the group's annual financial statements as at 31 December 2017. There have been no changes in the risk management department or in any risk management policies since the year end of the previous year.

Exchange differences: Negative foreign exchange differences arise from currency devaluation against the Euro and positive exchange differences from currencies appreciation against the Euro

Impairment assessment has been performed for those cash‐generating units (CGUs) with an indication that their carrying amount exceeds their recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of each cash‐generating unit was determined through a value‐in‐use calculation. That calculation uses cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a one‐year period and cash projections for four additional years.

Subjective estimates and judgements by management about the future results of the CGU were included in the above calculation. These estimates and judgements include assumptions surrounding revenue growth rates, direct costs, and discount rates.

The following table sets out the key assumptions for the calculation of the Value in Use:

ICM segment: Frigoglass India

11,4% After ‐ Tax discount rate:
6,2% ‐ 11,7% Gross margin pre Depreciation:
4,8% Growth rate in perpetuity:

Due to adverse operating results impairment assessment at 30.06.2018, was carried out, using the assumptions stated above, which resulted to impairment loss of € 2,1 m. for the Frigoglass India PVT Ltd..

Note 6 ‐ Property, plant & equipment (continued)

ICM segment: Frigoglass India PVT Ltd.

As at 30.06.2018, the recoverable amount of the CGU of the ICM manufacturing Frigoglass India was € 7,4 m..

If the growth rate used in the value‐in‐use calculation had been 1% lower than management's estimates as at 30.06.2018 (3,8% instead of 4,8%), the Group would have had to recognise an additional impairment against the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment of € 0,905 m..

If the after‐tax discount rate applied to the cash flow projections of this CGU had been 1% higher than management's estimates (12,4% instead of 11,4%), the Group would have had to recognise an additional impairment against property, plant and equipment of € 1,472 m..

The fair value of trade debtors closely approximates their carrying value. The Group and the Company have a significant concentration of credit risk with specific customers which comprise large international groups such as Coca ‐ Cola HBC, other Coca ‐ Cola bottlers, Diageo ‐ Guinness and Heineken.

The Group does not require its customers to provide any pledges or collateral due to the general high calibre and international reputation of portfolio.

Management does not expect any losses from non‐performance of trade receivables, other than as provided for as at 30.06.2018.

Provisions for Trade receivables: The decrease in the balance mainly derives from the accounting write off of a residual customer in Libya and the corresponding reversal of the relevant provision.

The amount of Grants for exports receivable of Euro 7.8m (2017 Euro 7.3m) comprise of Export Expansion Grants (EEG) and Negotiable Duty Credit Certificate (NDCC). Export Expansion Grants (EEG) are granted by the Nigerian Government on exports of goods produced in the country, having met certain eligibility criteria. These are recognized at fair value, and Management does not expect any losses from the non‐recoverability of these grants. Negotiable Duty Credit Certificates (NDCC) originate from export grants received from government and the instrument is useful for settlement of custom duties payable to government, with no expiry date.

A revised scheme has been proposed to be implemented as of 2018 whereby the Settlement of Claims for EEG by the Nigerian Government will be done through the issue of negotiable tax credit certificates to the beneficiaries. This instrument, known as Export Credit Certificate (ECC), will be used to settle all Federal Government taxes such as company income tax, VAT, WHT, etc. and the following:

a. purchase of Federal Government Bonds b. settlement of credit facilities by Bank of Industry, NEXIM Bank and Central Bank of Nigeria intervention Facilities c. settlement of AMCON liabilities. The Certificate shall be valid for two years and transferable once to final beneficiaries.

Existing EEG claims not yet settled continue to be eligible under the revised scheme. It is proposed that the existing NDCCs with the Exporters will be swapped with promissory notes (under‐written by the Federal Government).

The V.A.T receivable is fully recoverable through the operating activity of the Group and the Company.

Other receivables comprise various prepayments and accrued income not invoiced. The fair value of other receivables closely approximates their carrying value.

The tight liquidity in 2017 and 2018 in the foreign exchange market in Nigeria has significantly limited our ability to execute payments in foreign currency, leading to a high Nigerian Naira cash balance of € 26 m.. We expect the excess cash to be utilised among others to fund capital expenditure and raw material purchases over the coming years.

The effective interest rate on short term bank deposits as at 30.06.2018 was 1,44% ( December 2017: 2,9% ).

Pledged assets are described in detail in Note 13 ‐ Non current and current borrowings.

Accrued discount on sales: The increase in the balance is mainly attributable to the higher sales and seasonality of sales.

Accrued interest for bank loans: The increase in the balance is mainly attributable to different payment patterns.

Note 13 ‐ Non current & current borrowings (continued)

With the exception of the 2nd Lien Notes, the Group borrows at floating interest rates, which are renegotiated in periods not longer than six months.

Following the capital restructuring of 23 October 2017, Frigoglass entered into new debt arrangements that replaced part of the existing Group financing with new financing with extended maturities. The remaining existing debt was either capitalized or repaid. The 2013 Notes issued by Frigoglass Finance BV were cancelled and delisted from the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, while new Notes of lower value were issued. The Bank facilities granted to the Group from its four Core Banks were similarly adjusted and extended. The loan received by the key shareholder Boval, was capitalized and an additional share capital cash injection took place.

More specifically, the key elements of the Restructuring are:

  • (1) Boval contributed a total of €60m in equity to the transaction as part of the Rights Issue (of which €30m in new cash and €30m was utilized for the repayment of the principal amount of the Boval Term Loan Facility from the Issuer).
  • (2) €40m new debt has been provided in the form of first lien senior secured notes due 2021 by the holders of the 2013 Notes and in the form of first lien senior secured revolving credit facilities made available by the Core Banks.
  • (3) Out of the 2013 Notes and pre‐restructuring facilities provided by the Core Banks €59,6m were equitized and €3,46m were repaid. Furthermore, €45m of debt (from the 2013 Notes and the Core Banks' facilities) were written off. In total, Frigoglass Group pre restructuring debt was reduced by €138M. Furthermore, the fair value of the new shares that started trading in the Athens Stock Exchange on 16.11.2017 (date of equitization) was €24,1m generating a profit of €35,5m for the Group and the reduction of the Parent's intergroup loan to €31.3m.
  • (4) The new restructured debt has reduced interest rates, which along with the lower levels of Debt is estimated to halve the Group's annual pre‐restructuring interest costs.

The Group's new first‐lien indebtedness under the First Lien Debt amounts to approximately €120,0m, consisting of €40,4m senior secured first‐lien facilities and €79.4m senior secured first‐lien notes. The maturity of the first lien indebtedness is December 31st 2021 and the interest rate is EURIBOR/LIBOR (as applicable) plus a rate of 4,25% per annum. A €2m aggregate amortisation payment will be paid every six months starting from March 2019 to prepay the First Lien Debt.

The Group's second‐lien debt amounts to approximately €141m, comprising of €42,2m second‐lien secured facilities and €98,5m second‐lien secured notes. The above amounts assume full utilization of the new revolving credit facilities (RCFs). The maturity of the second lien indebtedness is March 31st 2022. Interest for the 2nd Lien facilities is accrued as EURIBOR/LIBOR (as applicable) plus a rate of 3,25% per annum while the 2nd lien notes are fixed at 7% per annum.

The above amounts assume full utilization of the new revolving credit facilities (RCFs).

There are two covenants: (i) a Minimum Liquidity Covenant which is tested weekly and (ii) a Leverage Covenant which will be tested semi‐annually.

Note 15 ‐ Share capital

A) Share capital:

2018

The share capital of the Group as at 30.06.2018 comprised of 355.437.751 fully paid up ordinary shares with an nominal value of € 0,36 each.

2017

The 1st Repetitive General Meeting of shareholders of "FRIGOGLASS S.A.I.C." took place on June 27, 2017. The following items of the agenda were discussed and resolved:

a) the increase of the nominal value of each common registered share of the Company from € 0,30 to € 0,90 through merger of every 3 existing shares to 1 new share and parallel decrease of the total number of shares from 50.593.832 to 16.864.610 (reverse share split 3:1).

b) the nominal decrease of the Company's share capital by the amount of € 9.106.889,40, by a corresponding decrease of the nominal value of each Company's share from € 0,90 (as such will be adjusted following the reverse share split) to € 0,36, according to article 4 para. 4a of C.L. 2190/1920, for the purpose of forming a special reserve of equal amount the use of which will be decided in the future.

c) the share capital increase of the Company up to the amount of € 136.398.446,64, in accordance with article 13a of C.L. 2190/1920, with pre‐emptive rights for the existing shareholders of the Company at a ratio of 22,46 new shares for each existing share through payment in cash and the issuance of 378.884.574 new common voting registered shares, with a nominal value of € 0,36 each, and subscription price of € 0,36.

The share capital increase through cash payment was completed on 18.10.2017 and the amount paid was € 63.459.341,82 which was allocated to € 62.851.774,68 in the share capital account and € 607.567,14 to the share premium account.

d) issuance of 163.984.878 new shares of the Company with a nominal value of € 0.36348 each following the conversion of 163.984.878 Convertible Bonds of a nominal value of € 0,36348 each held by the participating bank lenders and the Scheme creditors.

The Board of Directors of Frigoglass on 23.10.2017 ratified the relevant share capital increase as a result of the above conversion by the amount of € 59.034.556,08. Due to the fact that the share capital increase resulted from the conversion of existing borrowings, the issued capital was recognized at its fair value, ie the stock market value of the shares at the date of the issue, which on November 16, 2017 was € 0,147 per share. As a result, the difference from the nominal value of the shares of € 34.929 thousands was recognized to the share premium account.

The share capital of the Group as at 31.12.2017 comprised of 355.437.751 fully paid up ordinary shares with an nominal value of € 0,36 each.

A statutory reserve is created under the provisions of Hellenic law (Law 2190/20) according to which, an amount of at least 5% of the profit (after tax) for the year must be transferred to this reserve until it reaches one third of the paid up share capital. The statutory reserve can not be distributed to the shareholders of the Company except for the case of liquidation.

The share option reserve refers to the established Stock Option Plan provided to senior managers and members of the Management Committee, as described in Note 15.

The Company has created tax free reserves, in accordance with several Hellenic tax laws, during the years, in order to achieve tax deductions, either

a) by postponing the settlement of tax liabilities until the distribution of the reserves to the shareholders, or

b) by eliminating any future income tax payment related to the issuance of bonus shares to the shareholders.

Should the reserves be distributed to the shareholders as dividends, the distributed profits will be taxed with the applicable rate at the time of distribution.

No provision has been recognized for contingent income tax liabilities in the event of a future distribution of such reserves to the Company's shareholders since such liabilities are recognized at the same time as the dividend liability associated with such distributions.

Note 18 ‐ Income tax

The Group and the Company calculate the period income tax using the tax rate that would be applicable to the expected annual earnings.

The income tax rates in the countries where the Group operates are between 0% and 33%.

A part of non deductible expenses, tax losses for which no deferred income tax asset was recognised, the different tax rates in the countries in which the Group operates, incomes not subject to tax and other taxes create the final effective tax rate for the Group.

Audit Tax Certificate

For the financial years 2011 to 2017, all Hellenic Societe Anonyme and Limited Liability Companies that are required to prepare audited statutory financial statements must in addition obtain an "Annual Tax Certificate" as provided for by paragraph 5 of Article 82 of L.2238/1994 for the financial years 2011‐2013 and the Article 65A of L.4174/2013 for the financial years 2014‐2017. This "Annual Tax Certificate" must be issued by the same statutory auditor or audit firm that issues the audit opinion on the statutory financial statements.

Upon completion of the tax audit, the statutory auditor or audit firm must issue a "Tax Compliance Report" which will subsequently be submitted electronically to the Ministry of Finance.

For the years 2011 up to 2016 a respective "Tax Certificate" has been issued by the statutory Certified Auditors in accordance with art 65A of Law 4174/2013, without any qualification or matter of emphasis as pertains to the tax compliance of the Company.

The year 2017 is also audited by the company's certified auditor, the "Tax Certificate" of which has not been issued as yet, since its filing deadline is 31 October 2018.

For financial year 2017, tax audit is in progress and the Company's management does not expect that additional tax liabilities will arise for this year.

For the Parent Company, the "Tax Compliance Report" for the financial years 2011 ‐ 2016 has been issued with no substantial adjustments with respect to the tax expense and corresponding tax provision as reflected in the annual financial statements of 2011 ‐ 2016.

The Parent company received an audit mandate for a tax re‐examination for 2012.

The tax returns of the Parent Company and the Group's subsidiaries have not been assessed by the tax authorities for different periods (see the table below).

Until such time the special tax audit of the companies in the below table is completed, the tax burden for the Group relating to those years cannot be accurately determined. The Group is raising provisions for any additional taxes that may result from future tax audits to the extent that the relevant liability is probable and may be reliably measured.

Notes to the Interim Condensed Financial Statements in € 000's

Note 21 ‐ Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to shareholders, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year, excluding ordinary shares purchased by the company (treasury shares).

The weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year is the number of ordinary shares outstanding at the beginning of the year, adjusted by the decrease in the number of ordinary shares due to the reverse split adjusted retrospectively and the increase in the number of ordinary shares issued during the year due to the share capital increase with cash and the share capital increase with the conversion of bonds ( Note 15) , multiplied by a time‐weighting factor.

Given that the average share price for the year is not in excess of the available stock options' exercise price, there is no dilutive effect.

According IAS 33, the weighted average number of shares for 2017 has been adjusted to a 1/3 rate to reflect the effect of reverse split on earnings per share, which was decided at the 1st Repetitive General Meeting of shareholders on June 27, 2017.

Note 29 ‐ Discontinued operations

A) Description

The Company announced on 2 April 2018 that it has entered into an agreement to sell the entire share capital of its wholly owned glass container subsidiary Frigoglass Jebel Ali FZE to ATG Investments Limited. The total cash consideration of the transaction amounts to US \$ 12,5m., on a debt‐free basis. US \$ 5m. will be payable on completion of the transaction, with a further US \$ 7,5m. in 4 instalments over 4 years following completion of the transaction. The above payments are subject to working capital and other customary adjustments.

The decision to sell this operation was taken at the Board of Directors meeting held on 2 March 2018.

Based on the current course of the transaction, management concluded that the provisions of IFRS 5 were in effect at the end of the year ended December 31, 2017 because management has obtained the necessary approvals for the sale of that subsidiary and has been identified a reasonable cash consideration for the sale and the aforementioned activities have been presented as assets held for sale.

In the context of this sale the Group will leave two geographical areas of Glass Industry (United Arab Emirates, Asia ‐ Oceania) and for this reason it has been portrayed as discontinued operations.

Assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. As at 31.12.2017 based on the fair value less costs to sell a loss of € 11,353 m. has been charged in discontinued operations and as at 30.06.2018 an additional loss of €1,960 m. has been charged in discontinued operations.

Upon sale a cumulative currency translation reserve will be recycled from the Balance Sheet to the Profit and Loss.

Alternative Performance Measures ("APMs")

The Group uses certain Alternative Performance Measures ("APMs") in making financial, operating and planning decisions as well as in evaluating and reporting its performance. These APMs provide additional insights and understanding to the Group's operating and financial performance, financial condition and cash flow. The APMs should be read in conjunction with and do not replace by any means the directly reconcilable IFRS line items.

Definitions and reconciliations of Alternative Performance Measures ("APMs")

In discussing the performance of the Group, certain measures are used, which are calculated by deducting from the directly reconcilable amounts of the Financial Statements the impact of restructuring costs. In this context, we are focusing on the APMs from Continuing Operations, while we also present Discontinued Operations for reconciliation purposes.

Restructuring Costs

Restructuring costs comprise costs arising from significant changes in the way the Group conducts business, such as the discontinuation of manufacturing operations, as well as expenses related to the Group's capital restructuring, debt write‐off and gains from the conversion of the convertible bonds. These costs are included in the Company's/Group's Income Statement, while the payment of these expenses are included in the Cash Flow Statement. However, they are excluded from the results in order for the user to obtain a better understanding of the Group's operating and financial performance achieved from ongoing activity.

EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization)

EBITDA is calculated by adding back to profit before income tax, the depreciation, the impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets and net finance cost/income. EBITDA margin (%) is defined as EBITDA divided by Net Sales Revenue.

EBITDA margin, % 16,3% 14,9% 14,7% 13,1%

EBITDA is intended to provide useful information to analyze the Group's operating performance.

Net Trade Working Capital (NTWC)

Net Trade Working Capital is calculated by subtracting Trade Payables from the sum of Inventories and Trade Receivables. The Group presents Net Trade Working Capital because it believes the measure assists users of the financial statements to better understand its short term liquidity and efficiency.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is an APM used by the Group and defined as cash generated by operating activities after cash generated from investing activities. Free cash flow is intended to measure the cash generation from the Group's business, based on operating activities, including the efficient use of working capital and taking into account the purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. The Group presents free cash flow because it believes the measure assists users of the financial statements in understanding the Group's cash generating performance as well as availability for interest payment, dividend distribution and own retention.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Adjusted Free Cash Flow facilitates comparability of Cash Flow generation with other companies, as well as enhances the comparability of information between reporting periods. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is calculated by excluding from the Free Cash Flow (defined above) the restructuring related cost and proceeds from disposal of property, plant and equipment (PPE).
