The subsidiaries, which were included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Group, are described in Appendix .

3 PREPARATION BASE OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

(a) Preparation Base of Financial Statements: The accompanying interim financial statements of the Group and the Company (hereafter financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except the land and the buildings, which at the date of transition to International Financial Reporting Standards (1st January 2004) were valued at their fair value and this fair value was used as deemed cost at the above date. As more fully discussed in Note 3 (c), the accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance to IFRS for the first time, by applying IFRS 1 "First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards" with the transition date being the 1st of January 2004.

(b) Statutory Financial Statements: The Company and its domestic (Greek) subsidiaries maintain their accounting books and prepare financial statements in accordance to the Greek Company Law 2190/1920 and the applicable tax legislation. The foreign subsidiaries of the Company maintain their accounting records and prepare financial statements in accordance to the applicable laws and regulations of the countries in which they operate. For the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of the parent company, the financial statements of the foreign subsidiaries are adjusted in accordance to the provisions of the Greek Company Law 2190/1920. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been based on the above-mentioned statutory consolidated financial statements appropriately adjusted and reclassified by certain out-of-book adjustments in order to comply with IFRS.

© First Time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards: Pursuant to EU regulation 1606/2002 and according to Law 3229/2004 (as amended by Law 3301/2004) Greek entities listed on any Stock Exchange (domestic ;or foreign) are required to prepare their statutory financial statements (stand-alone and consolidated) from fiscal years beginning on January 1, 2005, onwards, in accordance with IFRS.

The Group applied IFRS 1 "First Time Adoption of IFRS" in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements, which is the first full set of financial statements under IFRS, as the quarterly financial statements of the fiscal year 2005 prepared and published up to now are interim financial statements that were prepared on the basis of IFRS 34 and were in essence provisional in the context that the final assessment and determination of the items was in the annual financial statements of 31st December 2005.

Based on IFRS 1 "First Time Adoption of IFRS", for the preparation of the first financial statements in accordance with IFRS, an entity should apply the IFRS that are in effect at the year end date of the first full financial statements and for all the periods presented along with the transition balance sheet.

Based on the provisions of IFRS 1 "First Time Adoption of IFRS" and, the above mentioned Greek legislation, above entities are obliged to present at least one year of comparative financial statements in accordance with IFRS.

Consequently, all revised or newly issued Standards applicable to the Group and are in effect as at December 31, 2005, were used for the preparation of the current financial statements, the comparative financial statements as of December 31,2005 as well as the transition balance sheet as of January 1, 2004.

The Company applied the IFRS 1 Rule "First Time Adoption of IFRS " in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements. Based on the respective provisions of IFRS 1, the following exceptions were adopted:

The Company decided not to apply IFRS 3 "Business Combinations" retrospectively, to business combinations, which occurred prior to the transition date to IFRS (1st of January 2004).

(Amounts in all tables and notes are presented in thousands of Euro, unless otherwise stated)

Consequently, and according to IFRS 1, regarding past business combinations the Company:

(i) Maintained the same classification as in its previous Greek accounting standards (GAS) financial statements.

(ii) Recognized all assets and liabilities at the transition date to IFRS, which were acquired or assumed in business combinations except from:

  • Certain financial assets and financial liabilities that were not recognized under previous GAS, and

  • Assets, including goodwill, and liabilities that were not recognized in the Company's consolidated balance sheet under previous GAS and would also not qualify for recognition under IFRS in the separate balance sheet of the acquiree.

(iii) Excluded/wrote off from its opening IFRS consolidated balance sheet any item recognized under previous GAS that does not qualify for recognition as an asset or liability under IFRS.

• The Company decided to evaluate its land and buildings on the transition date to IFRS at their fair value and used those fair values as deemed cost at that specific date.

• Concerning the provision for retirement indemnities all cumulative actuarial gains and losses were recognized at the transition date to IFRS, while the corridor approach was used for the actuarial gains and losses which were incurred during 2004 . This excemption was used for all relevant plans existing at the transition date.

• The accumulated exchange rate differences that arose due to the currency conversion of balance sheets of the subsidiaries abroad were deemed to be zero at the date of transition to IFRS (they were included in the retained earnings) and the gain or loss on a subsequent sale/disposal of any subsidiary abroad will not include exchange differences that arose before the transition date to IFRS and will include every subsequent exchange difference.

• The Company's estimates under IFRS at the date of transition to the IFRS were consistent with the estimates that took place for the same date under previous GAS (after adjustments to reflect any difference in the accounting policies), unless there was objective evidence that these estimates were wrong.

• The assets and liabilities of certain foreign subsidiaries that had not adopted in full the IFRS standards prior to the parent company, have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at the same carrying amounts as that reflected in their separate stand alone financial statements after consolidation and adjustment entries and equity adjustments.

(d) Approval of Financial Statements: The Board of Directors of Athens Medical S.A. approved the interim financial statements for the year ended on September 30, 2006, on November 27, 2006.

(e) Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period/year. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.

(Amounts in all tables and notes are presented in thousands of Euro, unless otherwise stated)

4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements is the following:

(a) Basis of Consolidation : The Company's accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the parent Company, as well as of all the subsidiaries that are controlled by the Parent Company. Control is presumed to exist when direct or indirect ownership retains the majority of voting interest or has the power to control the Subsidiaries' Board of Directors. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which effective control is transferred to the company and cease to be consolidated from the date in which control ceases to exist.

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of a subsidiary (Physiotherapy Center S.A.), in which although the direct parent company holds less than 50% of the voting rights, controls it through the ability of appointing the majority of members of the Board of Directors.

In the consolidated financial statements, Medicafe S.A. is also included using the equity method, although, Group holds 55% of the company's voting rights, due to a managements transfer to third parties. As a result such ownership does not consist control according to IAS 27 « Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements », paragraph 13.

The Group's subsidiaries EREVNA S.A. and AXONIKI EREVNA S.A., according to their General Assemblies' decision, have entered a liquidation procedure, since 1/7/2006. Before that and during the year 2006, the above mentioned companies have transferred together with all their productive assets – mechanical equipment, their operations to parent company and as a qonsequence their Balance Sheets do not include non current assets. As a result the liquidation of the above mentioned companies is not considered to be a discontinued operation according to IFRS 5 "Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations", that requires distinctive reporting regarding the companies' results and fixed assets.

All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Where necessary, accounting policies of the subsidiaries have been revised to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. A full list of the consolidated subsidiaries together with the related ownership interests is provided In Appendix .

(b) Investments in Subsidiaries (separate financial statements): The investments of the parent Company in its consolidated subsidiaries are measured at acquisition cost less any cumulative impairment losses.

(c) Investments in Associates:

i) Consolidated financial statements: The Company's investments in other entities in which parent exercises significant influence and are not subsidiaries or joint-ventures are accounted for using the equity method. Under this method the investment in associates is recognized at cost in addition to the changes in the percentage of the Company in the associate's equity after the initial date of acquisition less possible provisions for impairment in value. The consolidated statement of income reflects the Company's share of the results of operations of the associate.

ii) Separate financial statements of parent: Investments in associates in the stand-alone financial statements are measured at acquisition cost less any cumulative impairment losses.

(d) Conversion of foreign currencies: The base currency of the Company and of its Greek subsidiaries is Euro. The transactions involving other currencies are converted into Euro using the exchange rates that were in effect at the time of the transactions.At the balance sheet date monetary assets and liabilities which are denominated in other currencies are adjusted in order to reflect the current exchange rates.

Gains and losses resulting from year end FX adjustments of monetary assets and liabilities are reflected in the accompanying income statement. Gains and losses resulting from transactions are reflected in the accompanying statement of income also.

The base currency of the Group's foreign subsidiaries is the official currency of the related country in which each subsidiary operates. Thereafter, at each reporting date all balance sheet accounts of these subsidiaries are converted into Euro using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are converted based on the weighted average rate of exchange that prevailed during the year.

(e) Intangible Assets: Intangible assets are mainly consisted of software and commercial rights. These are amortized over their estimated useful lives which are set to five years.

(Amounts in all tables and notes are presented in thousands of Euro, unless otherwise stated)

(f) Research and Product Development Cost: Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditure is mainly incurred for the development of new products. Costs incurred for the development of an individual project are recognized as an intangible asset only when the requirements of IAS 38 "Intangible Assets» are met.

(g) Revenue recognition: Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following particular recognition criteria must also be met as it is recognized.

Sale of Services

The Sale of Services revenue is accounted according to the extent of service completion.

Sale of goods

The sale of goods revenue, net of trade discounts sale, incentives and the related VAT, is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer.

Interests

The interest revenue is recognized on the accrual basis of accounting.

(h) Property, Plant and Equipment: Land and buildings are valued at historical cost (deemed cost based on the provisions of IFRS 1), less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. Machinery, transportation equipment, as well as the furniture and the rest of the equipment are measured at historical cost less the accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value.

As more fully described in Note 13, the Company proceeded to a fair valuation of its land, buildings, as at January 1, 2004 and these fair values were used as deemed cost on the date of transition to the IFRS. The resulted revaluation surplus was credited to retained earnings.

Repairs and maintenance are charged to expenses as incurred. Major improvements are capitalized to the cost of the asset to which they relate when they extend the useful life, increase the earnings capacity or improve the efficiency of the respective assets.

An item of property and plant is derecognized upon sale or disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset , is included in the consolidated statement of income in the year the item is derecognized.

(i) Depreciation: Depreciation is calculated based on the straight-line method at rates, which approximately reflect the average useful lives of relative assets.

The rates used are the following:

Classification Annual rate
Buildings 2%
Machinery and Equipment 10%- 10,80%
Equipment of Transportation 6%-10%
Furniture and rest of Equipment 10%- 20%

(j) Goodwill: As more fully described in Note 3, goodwill on business combinations which occurred prior to the date of transition to IFRS, was written off in the statutory financial statements of the prior to the first time adoption period. Goodwill on acquisitions subsequent to the date of transition to IFRS is initially measured at cost being the excess value of the cost of the business combination over the acquirer's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwil arisen from acquisitions after 31st March 2004 is not amortized. Goodwill is not amortized, but it is reviewed for impairment, annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

At the acquisition date, any goodwill acquired is allocated to each of the cash generating units expected to benefit from the combination's synergies. Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating units, to which the goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that unit, is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of, is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of, in this circumstance is measured on the basis of the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.

(Amounts in all tables and notes are presented in thousands of Euro, unless otherwise stated)

(ja) Impairment ofAssets: With the exception of goodwill and intangibles with indefinite life, which are reviewed for impairment at least annually, the carrying value of other non-current assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Whenever the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount a respective impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statement of income. The recoverable amount is measured as the higher of net selling price and value in use. Net selling price is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm's length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, after deducting any direct incremental selling costs, while value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from continuing use of the asset and from the revenue due to its disposal at the end of its estimated useful life. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows.

(jb) Inventories: Inventories are reported at the lower value between the cost and the net realizable value. Cost of finished and semi-finished products includes all costs incurred in bringing inventories to their current location and state of manufacture and comprises raw materials, labour, an applicable amount of production overhead (based on normal operating capacity, but excluding borrowing costs) and packaging. The cost of raw materials and finished goods is determined based on the weighted average basis. Net realizable value for finished goods is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary, to make the sale. The net realizable value for raw materials is the estimated replacement cost in the ordinary course of business.

(jc) Accounts Receivable and Credit Policy: Short-term receivables are presented at their nominal value, net of provisions for potential non collectible accounts, while long-term receivables (balances that deviate from normal credit terms) are reported at the amortized cost based on the actual interest rate method. At each Balance sheet date all past due or doubtfull debtors are assesed by management in order to determine the necessity for relevant provision, with criteria such as the customer's ability to pay and the aging of his balance. The balance of such allowance for doubtful accounts is appropriately adjusted at each balance sheet date in order to reflect all possible risks. Any amount written–off with respect to customer account balances is charged against the existing allowance for doubtful accounts. It is the Group's policy not to write-off an account until all possible legal action has been exhausted.

(jd) Credit Risk Concentration: The maior part of debtors comes from state insurance funds, private and public insurance organizations and companies, whose credit risk is considered to be limited.Regarding the rest of debtors, represented by sale to individuals, risk is diversified due to the great diversity of balances.

(je) Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers time deposits and other highly liquid investments with original maturity of three months or less, to be cash equivalents. For the purpose of the cash flow statements, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash at hand and in banks and of cash and cash equivalents as defined above.

(jf) Long-term Liabilities: All long-term liabilities are initially recognized at cost. After initial recognition loans and borrowings denominated in foreign currency are reported using the spot rate at each reporting date. The interest costs are recognized on the accrual basis of accounting.

(jh) Borrowing Costs: Borrowing Costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

(jg) Provision for Retirement Indemnities: Staff Retirement obligations are calculated at the discounted value of the future retirement benefits deemed to have accrued at year-end, based on the employees earning retirement benefit rights throughout the expected working period. Retirement obligations mentioned above are calculated on the basis of financial and actuarial assumptions and are determined using the Projected Unit credit actuarial valuation Method. Net pension costs for the period are included in payroll in the accompanying income statement and consist of the present value of benefits earned in the year, interest cost on the benefit obligation, past service cost, actuarial gains or losses and any additional pension charges. Past service costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits under the plan become vested. Unrecognized actuarial gains or losses are recognized over the average remaining service period of active employees and included as a component of net pension cost for a year if, as of the beginning of the year, it exceeds 10% of the future projected benefit obligation. The retirement benefit obligations are not funded.

(jh) State Pension: The Company's personnel is covered by several State sponsored pension funds for private sector employees, (I.K.A., T.S.A.Y.) covering post-retirement pensions, and healthcare benefits. Each employee is required to contribute a portion of its monthly salary to the fund, with the company also contributing a portion. Upon retirement, the pension fund is responsible for paying the employees retirement benefits. At such, the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay future benefits under this plan.

(Amounts in all tables and notes are presented in thousands of Euro, unless otherwise stated) (k)Income Taxes (Current and Deferred):Current and deferred income taxes are computed based on the stand alone financial statements of each of the entities included in the consolidated financial statements, in accordance with the tax rules in force in Greece or other tax jurisdictions in which foreign subsidiaries operate. Income tax expense is computed based on each entity's profits as adjusted in its tax returns, additional income taxes resulting from tax audits by the tax authorities and deferred income taxes, using substantively enacted tax rates.

• Deferred income tax is computed, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases and the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences:

• Except cases, where the deferred income tax liability arises from goodwill amortization or the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss, and

• In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interest in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all discounted temporary differences and transferred tax assets and losses, to the extent where it is possible that taxable profit will be available which will be used against the discounted temporary differences and the transferred unused taxable assets and losses.

• Except cases where the deferred tax asset regarding the discounted temporary differences arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss and

• In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interest in joint ventures, an income deferred tax is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and there will be available taxable profit which will be used against temporary differences.

The deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent, where it is not considered as possible that enough taxable profits will be presented against which, a part or the total deferred tax assets can be utilized.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates (and the laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

The income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity, is recognized in equity and not in the income statement.

(ka) Leases: Finance leases, which transfer to the Company substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and the reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly to income. Capitalized leased assets are depreciated over estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term.

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

(kb) Provisions and Contingencies: Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or presumed/ imputed obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle this obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the present value of the expenditure expected to be required to settle the obligation. If the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pretax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate the risks specific to the liability. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements but they are disclosed unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

(Amounts in all tables and notes are presented in thousands of Euro, unless otherwise stated)

(kc) Earnings per Share: Basic earnings per share (EPS) are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year, excluding the average number of common shares purchased by the group as treasury shares (ownshares).

Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent company (after deducting interest on convertible shares, net of tax) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year, (adjusted for the effect of dilutive convertible shares).

(kd) Segment reporting : The group has one segment, the health care services. It is also involved mainly in the Greek territory and its activities abroad do not have sufficient extend in order to consist a segment. Consequently, the presentation of relevant financial information is not necessary.

(ke) Derivative Financial Instruments: The Group does not use derivative Financial Instruments .

(aa) Investments and other financial assets:

Financial assets in the scope of IAS 39 are classified as either

  • financial assets at fair value through profit or loss,
  • loans and receivables,
  • held-to-maturity investments,
  • available-for-sale financial assets, as appropriate.

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 Group determines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, reevaluates this designation periodically.

(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

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 investments held for trading are recognised in income.

(ii) Loans and receivables

Such assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in the income statement when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.

(iii) Held-to-maturity investments

Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as held-to-maturity when the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Investments intended to be held for an undefined period are not included in this classification. Other long-term investments that are intended to be held-to-maturity, such as bonds, are subsequently measured at amortised cost. For investments carried at amortised cost, gains and losses are recognised in income when the investments are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.

(iv) Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-forsale 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 being recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is sold, 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.

The fair value of investments that are actively traded in organised financial markets is determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business on the balance sheet date. For investments where there is no active market, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques include using recent arm's length market transactions; reference to the current market value of another instrument, which is substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models.

(Amounts in all tables and notes are presented in thousands of Euro, unless otherwise stated)

Based on prior GAAP (which the Company applied until December 31, 2004) other investments (except for investments in subsidiaries, affiliates and joint ventures, which would fall into this category of financial assets) need not be classified in the above mentioned groups, and thus are presented in the comparative 2004 balance sheet as "other investments" or "investments available for sale" and they were measured at the lower of cost or current value with the current value defined as follows:

  • •For the listed entities, the average market value during the last month of each reporting period,
  • •For non-listed entities, the portion of net equity attributable to the Group's percentage of ownership.

(ab) New Standards and Interpretations: The International Accounting Standards Board, as well as the IFRIC, have already issued a number of new accounting standards and interpretations or have amended valid standards, whose application is mandatory for the periods beginning January 1, 2006 onwards (except if mentioned otherwise below). The Group's and company's management's assessment regarding the effect of these new standards and interpretations is as follows:

IAS 19 (amendment) Employee benefits (valid since January 1, 2006): This amendment provides entities the choice of an alternative method for actuarial gain or loss recognition . It is probable that this amendment will set new recognition criteria for cases where multi-employer retirement plans exist, for which no sufficient information, in order to apply fixed grants accounting. In addition new disclosures are added. This amendment is not applicable for the group.

IAS 39 (amendment) Cash flow hedges accounting for anticipated group transactions (valid since January 1, 2006): This specific amendment allows the exhange difference risk due to a highly probable anticipated group transaction, to be recognized as a hedging item in the consolidated financial statements, under the condition that (a) this transaction is performed in a currency different from the one used by the company, involved in the transaction and (b) the exhange difference risk will influence the consolidated income statement. This amendment is not expected to have effect in the group's financial statements under the condition that the structure an the relevant transactions will remain as they are.

IAS 39 (amendment) fair value measurement considerations (valid since January 1, 2006): This amendment alters the definition of the financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss and limits the ability to classify financial instruments in this category. The group considers that this specific amendment will not materially affect its financial instruments classification, as the group has not classified other financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss, except these held for trading. The group and the company will apply this amendment since January 1, 2006

IAS 39 and IFRS 4 (amendment) Financial guarantee contracts (valid since January 1, 2006):This amendment requires that financial guarantee contracts issued, except the ones that proved by the company to be insurance contracts, to be initially recognized at fair value and later to be valued at the greater value between (a) the balance of relevant fees that have been received and postponed and (b) the expense required to regulate the commitment at the Balance Sheet date. The management has come to the conclusion, that this amendment is not applicable for the group and the company.

IFRS 1 (amendment) First time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards and IFRS 6 Ex[loration for and Evaluation of mineral resources (valid since January 1, 2006): These amendments are not relevant with the group's operations.

IFRS 6 Explorations and Evaluation of mineral reserves (valid since January 1, 2006) : Not applicable for the Group and will not affect the financial statements.

IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and supplementary adjustment in IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements (valid since January 1, 2007): IFRS 7 introduces added disclosures in order to improve the incoming information relating to the financial instruments. It requires the disclosure of quality and quantity information regarding the risk exposure due to financial instruments. More specifically it defines minimum required discosures relating to credit risk, cash flow risk as well as market risk (imposes the sensitivity analysis concerning the market risk). IFRS 7 replaces the IAS 30 (Disclosures in the Financial Statements of banks and similar Financial Institutions) and the disclosure requirements of IAS 32, (Financial Instruments: disclosure and presentation) It is applicable in all entities that prepare financial statements according to IFRS. The adjustment to IAS 1 introduces disclosures relating the amount of entities' capital as well as its management. The group and the company has assessed the effect of IFRS 7 and the adjustment of IAS 1 and came to the conclusion that the additional disclosure required by their application is the sensitivity analysis regarding the market risk and the capital disclosures. The group will apply IFRS 7 and the amendment of IAS 1 from January 1, 2007

IFRIC 3, Emission Rights: This interpretation was not adopted by the E.U. and was later withdrawn by the International Accounting Standards Board. It does not apply to the Group and will not affect the financial statements.

(Amounts in all tables and notes are presented in thousands of Euro, unless otherwise stated)

IFRIC 4, Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease (valid since January 1, 2006): IFRIC 4 requires to be determined, whether a business agreement is or includes a lease or not. More specifically it requires an assessment of the following data (a) whether the fulfilment of the aggreement depends on the use of specific fixed asset(s) and (b) whether the agreement gives the lessee only the right to use the asset. The application of the Interpretation 4 is not expected to alter the accounting treatment of any of the Group's contracts in force.

IFRIC 5: Right to Interest arising from Decommisioning, Restoration and Environmental Rehabilitation Funds (valid since January 1, 2006): IFRIC 5 is not applicable for the Group and the company.

IFRIC 6: Liabilities arising from participating in a specific market – waste electrical and electronic equipment (valid since January 1, 2005): IFRIC 6 is not applicable for the Group and the company.

IFRIC 7: Applying the restatement approach under IAS 29 financial reporting hyperinflationary economies (valid since March 1, 2006): IFRIC 7 is not applicable for the Group and the company.

IFRIC 8: Scope of IFRS 2 (valid since May 1, 2006): Is not applicable for the Group and will not affect the financial statements.

IFRIC 9: Remeasurment of embedded derivatives (valid since June 1, 2006): Is not applicable for the Group and will not affect the financial statements.

(Amounts in all tables and notes are presented in thousands of Euro, unless otherwise stated)

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES

The Group proceeds to judgments and estimates in order either to apply the most representative accounting methods and policies or in connection with the future development of transactions and events. Such judgments and estimates are periodically reviewed by management in order to reflect current condition and correspond to anticipation of current risks and are based on prior experience in conjunction to the volume / level of such transactions and events.

The principle judgments and estimates referring to events the development of which could significantly affect the items of the financial statements during the forthcoming twelve months period are as follows:

Significant accounting estimates and relative uncertainty:

i)Goodwill impairment test

The Group determines whether goodwill is impaired at least on an annual basis. This requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which the goodwill is allocated. Estimating the value in use requires the Group to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the cash-generating unit and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.

As it is explained in note 14 of the financial statements, the goodwill arose from the purchase of minority's percentage of Group's subsidiary's "IATRIKI TEHNIKI S.A." that took place in the second semester of the closing year.Management has received two valuation reports from two independent appraisals regarding the business value of "IATRIKI TEHNIKI S.A.", which are based in its estimated future cash flows.

According to the tax legislation, the tax rate applicable in companies for the period of 2006 is 29% (32 % until the 31st of December 2005).

In November of 2004 a new tax act was approved, according to which, the tax rate of the companies is gradually reduced from 35% to 25%. In particular, for the periods of 2005 and 2006 the tax rate will be reduced to 32% and 29% respectively, while from the period of 2007 onwards it will reach 25%.

Greek tax laws and related regulations are subject to interpretations by the tax authorities. Tax returns are filed annually but the profits or losses declared for tax purposes remain provisional until such time, as the tax authorities examine the returns and the records of the taxpayer and a final assessment is issued. Tax losses, to the extent accepted by the tax authorities, can be used to offset profits of the five fiscal years following the fiscal year to which they relate.

The Company has been audited by the tax authorities up to 31st of December 2004. Regarding its subsidiaries, the tax authorities have not audited their books and their elements for the years mentioned in Appendix.

In a future tax audit of the related unaudited years, additional taxes and penalties may be assessed to the Company and to its subsidiaries. The Company regards that the outcome of the tax audits and the amount of the possible added taxes and fines, is possible to estimate and, thus, a relevant estimate has been made in the financial statements related to this subject.

The deferred income taxes related to the temporary differences between the book values and the tax bases of assets and liabilities are calculated using the applicable statutory income tax rate.

Use of fair value as deemed cost: Within year 2004 the Group appointed an independent firm of appraisers to conduct a valuation of its land buildings and machinery as of January 1, 2004 (transition date to IFRS). The valuations were performed based on appropriate valuation techniques depending on the nature and the usage of the valued fixed assets.

The main valuation techniques used were as follows:

  • The market approach for land,
  • The market approach and/or income approach for the urban buildings and,
  • The depreciated replacement cost0method for the industrial buildings and the machinery and equipment.

In addition, the appraisers determined the economic useful lives of the items of tangible assets from the date of acquisition or construction, which are set forth in Note 3. Depreciation in the accompanying income statements has been determined after deducting from the economic useful life of each fixed asset the years elapsed from the date of acquisition or construction through to the IFRS transition date.

The Company used the fair values determined as above in its opening IFRS balance sheet as deemed cost based on the exception provided in IFRS 1.

The aggregate adjustments to the respective carrying amounts reported under previous GAS, by category of fixed assets, are as follows:

(Amounts in all tables and notes are presented in thousands of Euro, unless otherwise stated)

Tax revaluation of land and buildings: In accordance with Greek tax legislation, land and the buildings are revaluated every four years based on non industry specific indexes that were announced through respective Ministerial Decisions. The latest of this revaluation, which was applied in December 31,2004, was reversed for IFRS reporting purposes on the basis of not meeting the criteria set forth in IAS 16, however, it resulted to an increase of the tax base of the related assets. The net surplus on land and buildings was taxed at 2% and 8% respectively.

There are no restrictions on title or transfer or other encumbrances on the Group's land and buildings. In addition, no item of land, building and machinery equipment has been pledged as security for liabilities.

The goodwill amounted to € 1.979 resulted from the acquisition of a further 5% of the subsidiary's share capital IATRIKI TECHNIKI S.A., a company that is operating in Greece in the sector of medical and surgical instrument production and trading, as well as of all kinds of sanitary/health equipment. The Group acquires the 56% of the share capital, while the buying-out of the further 5% that was typically completed in the last quarter of 2005, has been recognized according to the buy-out method and represents the difference between the paid up price and the fair value of the assets that were purchased as they were valuated at the respective transaction dates. From the progress of activities until now, no indications have arisen showing that the possibility of an impairment test must be examined.

The group in the a' six month period of 2006 acquired the rest 44% percentage and now owns 100% of the subsidiary's Iatriki Tehniki Share Capital .The amount required, for the acquisition of the 44%, of € 21.282, was not recognized as additional goodwill due to purchase method, but it reduced equally the consolidated Equity, as it arose from subsidiary purchase in which the group had already control.
