We have audited the accompanying financial statements of "AXON HOLDINGS S.A." (the "Company") as well as the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (the "Group"), which comprise the balance sheet as of 31 December 2006 and the income statement, statement of changes in shareholders' equity and cash flow statement for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union. This responsibility includes planning, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. This responsibility also includes selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Greek Auditing Standards, which are based on International Standards of Auditing. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and the Group as of 31 December 2006 and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards that have been adopted by the European Union.
Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to the following topics:
To Note 36.1, included in the notes to the financial statements, where it is referred that companies of the Group have been sued by third parties for a total amount of € 45,23 mil. and that an appeal by a subsidiary company exists for resolution of tax differences of a total amount of € 11,46 mil.
To Note 36.3, included in the notes to the financial statements, where it is referred that the parent company has not been audited by the tax authorities for the years 2005 and 2006 as well as the subsidiaries companies of the Group for the years mentioned in Note 36.3, resulting in a possibility of additional taxes and penalties being assessed on such examination of these financial years.
At this stage, it is unfeasible to predict the outcome of the above topics and as a consequence, no provision has been made in the financial statements concerning these respects.
The Board of Directors' Report is consistent with the aforementioned financial statements.

The Group of Companies AXON HOLDINGS S.A. is primarily activated in the following fields: (a) The introduction, organization and operation of clinics and scientific centers equipped with advanced technology devices as well as offering medical services of every nature, (b) The production and trade of defensive technology informative systems and (c) The supply of stock exchange financial services.
The headquarters of the Parent Company of the Group AXON HOLDINGS S.A. (the Company or the Parent Company) are located at Ermou Str 2, Athens.
The shares of the Parent Company are publicly traded in the Medium and Small Capitalization Market of the Athens Stock Exchange.
The accompanying annual financial statements of the Company and the Group for the year 1/1-31/12/2006 have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost principle, excepting specific categories of tangible assets which were valuated at their fair value at the transition date (1/1/2004) to the International Financial Reporting Standards and have been used ever since as deemed (historic) cost. Also, the aforementioned financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the going concern principle.
The annual financial statements of the year 1/1-31/12/2006 have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (I.F.R.S.) which have been published by the International Accounting Standards Board and the Interpretations published by the Standards Interpretations Committee and were in force on the 31st of December 2006.
The financial statements of the Company were prepared up to the year ended on the 31st of December 2004 according with the regulations of the C.L.2190/1920 and the Accounting Standards as required by the Greek Legislation up to that date. According to the provisions of the L.3229/2004, as they modified from L. 3301/2004, all the companies whose shares are publicly traded in an organized stock exchange market are obliged to prepare their financial statements in accordance with the rules and principles as provided by the I.F.R.S., for the years commencing on the 1st of January 2005 and then on. Consequently, both Company and the Group applied the provisions of the I.F.R.S. 1 "First-Time Adoption of the International Financial Reporting Standards" with transition date the 1st of January 2004. The first annual financial statements prepared in accordance with the rules and principles of the I.F.R.S. were those for the year ended on the 31st of December 2005.
The accounting principles outlined in the accompanying financial statements have been applied in consistency in all the years and by all the companies included in them.
The Company, its subsidiaries and its associated companies prepare their accounting books according to the Greek Commercial Law (C.L. 2190/1920) and the current tax legislation. By the 1st of January 2005, the companies included in the consolidated financial statements are
required, according to the provisions of the current legislation, to prepare their statutory financial statements according to the I.F.R.S. that have been adopted by the European Union. Consequently, the above annual financial statements are based on the financial statements that are prepared by the companies according to the current tax legislation, on which all the certain out-of-book adjustments have been made in order to be in conformity with the I.F.R.S..
The preparation of the financial statements according to the I.F.R.S. requires the Management of the Company to proceed in the conduction of estimations and predictions, that influence the accounts' balances on the balance sheet and the income statement, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of preparation of the financial statements. These estimates and predictions are based on the existing experience and on other factors and data which are considered reasonable and revised in regular time intervals. The effect of the revisions of the adopted estimates and predictions is recognized in the year that they are realised or even in the next if the revision influences not only the present but also the next years.
The annual financial statements for the year ended 31st of December 2006 (1/1-31/12/2006) were approved by the Board of Directors on the 21st of March 2007.
The International Accounting Standards Board, as well as the Standards Interpretations Committee, have published a set of new accounting standards and interpretations, as well as amendments to existing accounting standards, the application of which is obligatory for the periods that begin from the 1st of January 2006 and thereafter (unless it is reported differently below). The estimation of the Management in regard to the effect of the application of those new standards and interpretations is outlined as follows:
This amendment provides the companies with the choice of an alternative method of actuarial profits and losses recognition. It is likely to impose new conditions of recognition for
cases with existence of retirement programs, with participation of many employers (multiemployer plans) for which there is no sufficient information for the application of accounting of determined benefits. Furthermore, it adds new disclosure requirements. The given amendment does not apply for the Group.
This particular amendment allows for the risk of exchange difference from a highly probable forecast intragroup transaction, to qualify as a hedge item in the consolidated financial statements provided that: (a) the transaction is denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity entering into that transaction and (b) the foreign currency risk will affect the consolidated profit or loss.. The particular amendment does not apply for the Group.
This amendment changes the definition of financial instruments classified at fair value through the income statement and limits the ability of classifying financial instruments as part of this category. The Group considers that the particular amendment will not have great effect on the classification of its financial instruments, as the Group has not classified other financial instruments in current value through the income statement, apart from those that are kept for commercial purposes.
This amendment as requires that issued financial guarantees, other than those asserted to be insurance contracts, to be recognized initially at their fair value, and subsequently valued at the highest value between: (a) the non-amortized balance of the related fees received and deferred, (b) the expenditure required to settle the commitment at the balance-sheet date. The Management has concluded that this amendment does not apply for the Group.
The specific amendments are not relative with the operations of the Group.
The provisions of this standard do not apply for the Group and will not influence its financial statements.
I.F.R.S. 7 introduces additional disclosures aiming at improving the provided reporting about the financial instruments. It requires the disclosure of qualitative and quantitative information concerning the exposure to risks arising from financial instruments. More specifically, it predetermines the minimum required disclosures about credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk (it imposes sensitivity analysis about market risk). I.F.R.S. 7 replaces I.F.R.S. 30 (Disclosures in the Financial Statements of Banks and Similar Financial Institutions) and disclosure requirements in I.A.S. 32 (Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation). It is applicable to all companies that prepare financial statements according to the I.F.R.S. Reconciliation with the I.F.R.S. 1 introduces disclosures about the level of a company's capital, as well as for the way that these are managed. The Group estimated the effect of the I.F.R.S. 7 and the reconciliation with the I.A.S. 1 concluding that the additional disclosures required by their adoption are the sensitivity analysis about market risk and the capital disclosures. The Group will adopt I.F.R.S. 7 and the amendment to I.A.S. 1 from the 1st of January 2007.
I.F.R.S. 8 as requires the information reported related to operating segments, would be received by the Management so as to allocate available resources and appreciate efficiency. The application of this standard is estimated that it will not influence considerably the way of presentation of the operational sectors according to the I.A.S. 14." Segment Reporting".
This interpretation has not been adopted by the E.U. and was withdrawn by the I.A.S.B. It does not apply for the Group and has no impact in its financial statements.
This interpretation requires the determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a finance lease or not. Specifically, it requires an assessment of the following: (a) whether the fulfilment of an arrangement depends on the use of specific asset(s) and (b) whether the arrangement conveys the lessee the right to use the asset. The Management appreciates that this interpretation is not expected to influence the accounting policy of the existing business arrangements.
I.F.R.I.C. 4 Rights to Interests arising from Decommissioning, Restoration and Environmental Rehabilitation Funds (effective from 1 January 2006) This Interpretation does not apply for the Group.
This Interpretation does not apply for the Group.
This Interpretation does not apply for the Group.
This Interpretation does not apply for the Group.
This Interpretation does not apply for the Group.
This Interpretation may impact the financial statements, should any impairment losses be recognized in the interim financial statements in relation to goodwill or available for sale equity investments, or non publicly traded investments carried at cost, since this impairment cannot be reversed in later interim or annual financial statements. This interpretation has not been adopted yet by the E.U.
This interpretation as requires arrangements in which rights on investments are granted to employees, to be accounted for as wages determined by the value of shares and settled by investments, even in case the company chooses or is obliged to buy these investments from third parties or the shareholders of the company provide the investments needed. This interpretation also extends to the way in which subsidiaries, in their separate financial statements, account for schemes when their employees receive rights to investments of the parent company. This interpretation does not apply for the Group. This Interpretation has not yet been adopted by the E.U.
This Interpretation outlines an approach by which operators are supposed to apply the existing I.F.R.S. in order to account for obligations they undertake and rights granted to them in Concession Arrangements. According to the Interpretation the operators are not supposed to account for the infrastructure as tangible assets, but to recognize a financial asset or an intangible asset. This Interpretation does not apply for the Group. The interpretation has not yet been adopted by the E.U.
Certain items from the previous year were reclassified in order to conform to the closing year's presentation. The relative amounts of those reclassifications are not material so as their disclosure be required.

During the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements, all the above mentioned companies of the Group were consolidated from the 1st of January 2005, except of the subsidiaries PREVENTIVE MEDICINE P. FALIROU E.P.E. and SERRES AXIAL TOMOGRAPHY S.A. which were consolidated for first time from the 1/11/2006 and 1/12/2006 respectively, as well as the associate companies EUROGENETIC S.A. and MEDTRONIX Ε.P.Ε. which were consolidated for first time, with the equity method, from the 1/11/2006 and 31/12/2006 respectively.
During the current year the participating interests of the Group in subsidiaries and associate companies were changed as follows:
The Group's percentage of participation in the subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A. was decreased from 60,9 %, on the 31/12/2005, to 60,2 % on the 31/12/2006. This decrease was achieved via the subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A, which sold 227.346 treasury shares which it held on the 31/12/2005 and corresponded to 0,8 % of its paid up share capital της (0,5 % for the Group) and via the subsidiary companies SONAK S.A. and PRISMA TECHNOLOGICAL S.A. which sold shares corresponding to Group participation of 0,2 %. The consequence of the aforementioned decrease in the participation percentage of the Group in the subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A. was the simultaneous decrease in the participation percentage in its other subsidiaries (numbered 3 to 16 and 23 as above) as EUROMEDICA S.A. participated directly and indirectly in their share capital.
The Group's percentage of participation in the subsidiary company GENERAL CLINIC of THESSALONICA S.A. was increased from 65,00%, on the 31/12/2005, to 66,1%. This increase was achieved via the subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A., which acquired a percentage of 1,3 % in excess by contributing a total amount of € 700.
The Group's percentage of participation in the subsidiary company PRIVATE DIAGNOSTIC PYLIS AXIOU S.A. was decreased from 45,5 %, on the 31/12/2005, to 45,0 %. This change was realised because of the increase in the share capital of the company in which the Group participated via the subsidiary MULTIDIAGNOSTIC CENTRE OF LARISSA S.A., which acquired a percentage in excess of 9,0% (3,8% for the Group), for a total amount of € 470. The subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A. did not participate in this increase. This resulted in the decrease of its direct percentage of participation from 25,2% on the 31/12/2005, to 16,8 %.
The Group's percentage of participation in the subsidiary OBSTETRIC GYNAECOLOGICAL CLINIC OF THESSALONICA S.A. was increased from 29,7 %, on
the 31/12/2005, to 28,8 %. This decrease, despite the fact that the subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A. acquired an additional percentage of participation of o,6 % in the given subsidiary for a total amount of € 100, due to the decrease of the Group's percentage of participation to the subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A., as mentioned in the first case above.
The subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A. acquired an additional 20,0 % percentage of participation in the subsidiary company HELLENIC OPHTHALMOLOGIC CENTRE ORASIS S.A., resulting to the increase of its participation interest from 51,0%, on the 31/12/2005, to 71,0%. This increase was achieved by contributing a total amount of € 460.
In the last quarter of the closing year the Group acquired 60,2% of shares of the company PREVENTIVE MEDICINE P. FALIRON E.P.E., the headquarters of which are located in Greece (Ag. Alexandros 5 Street, P.Faliron, Attica) and activated in the industry of medical services. The acquisition of this participation was achieved via the subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A., for a total amount of € 433 (see note 18).
In the last quarter of the closing year, the Group acquired 28,3 % of the shares of the company AXIAL TOMOGRAPHY SERRES S.A., the headquarters of which are located in Greece (Ethnikis Antistaseos 10 Street, Serres) and activated in the industry of medical services. The acquisition of this participation was achieved via the subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A., for a total amount of € 1.610 (see note 18).
In the last quarter of the closing year the Group acquired 24,0 % of the shares of the company MEDTRONIX E.P.E. TRADE SERVICE of MEDICAL EQUIPMENT, the headquarters of which are located in Greece (M. Anninou 12, Thessaloniki) and activated in the sector of marketing and servicing medical instruments. The acquisition of this participation was achieved via the subsidiary company EURO PROCUREMENT S.A., which acquired 40,0% (24,0 % for the Group) of the total shares of this company for a total amount of € 1.180 (see note 19).
In the last quarter of the closing year the Group acquired 15,1 % of the shares of the company EUROGENETIC S.A. PRINCIPAL CENTRE of MOLECULAR BIOLOGY RESEARCH AND APPLICATIONS, the headquarters of which are located in Greece (Technological Park of Thermis, Thessaloniki) and activated in the industry of medical services. This acquisition was achieved via the subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A., for a total amount of € 160 (see note 19). Moreover, the Group, via its subsidiary company EUROMEDICA S.A., has committed to offer an additional amount of € 150 for the acquisition of 15,0% in excess, through the increase of the share capital of this company which is estimated that it will be completed in the next year 2007.
In the third quarter of this year, the Group acquired the control (management) of the associated, up to 30/6/2006, company MAGNETIC TOMOGRAPHY VOLOS S.A., having as a consequence its characterization as subsidiary and its financial statements to be included in the consolidated financial statements of the Group from 1/7/2006 with the line by line consolidation method.
In the current year the liquidation of the subsidiary company of the Group PRIVATE OBSTETRIC CLINIC REA S.A. was completed. It resulted in losses of € 75 that included in the income statement.
The tangible assets are represented in the financial statements at their acquisition cost. On the 1st of January 2004 the land and buildings were valued at their fair value which was measured on the basis of independent real estate valuators. These fair values were used as deemed cost during the transition date to the I.F.R.S. The resulting revaluation surplus was credited in the retained earnings. These values are decreased by: (a) the accumulated depreciation and (b) any impairment in value.
The original acquisition cost of land-building, machinery or equipment is constituted of the purchase price including import tariffs and non refundable purchase taxes, as well as any necessary costs for rendering the asset operational and ready for its intended use.
The posterior expenses, that take place in relation to tangible assets, are capitalized only when they increase the future economic benefits that are awaited to emerge from the use of the affected assets. All repairs and maintenance are expensed as they incur.
Upon retirement or sale of an asset, the relevant cost and the accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the corresponding accounts at the time of the retirement or sale and the relevant gains or losses are recognised in the statement of income.
The depreciation charges the income statement, under the straight-line method, throughout the duration of the appreciated useful lives of relative assets. Land is not depreciated. The appreciated duration of the useful life, for different asset categories, is as follows:
| Buildings | 25-50 | years |
|---|---|---|
| Machinery and equipment | 12 | years |
| Transportation equipment | 10 | years |
| Furniture and fixtures | 6-14 | years |
Establishments in third party real estates are depreciated on the basis of the duration years of the relevant lease contract. The residual values and the useful lives of the tangible assets are subject to reassessment at every year end. When the book values of the tangible assets are in excess of their recoverable amounts, the differences, (impairment), are recognized as expenses in the income statement.
Software programs refer to the acquisition cost or selfproduction of software such as salaries, materials, services, as well as every expenditure that has been realized upon software development in order that this is set in use. Expenditures that enhance or broaden the performance of software programs beyond their original capabilities, are recognized as capital expenditures and increase the initial cost of the software.
The depreciation expenses of software programs are charged to the income statement, under the straight-line method, throughout the duration of their useful lives. The appreciated duration of their useful life is as follows:
Software Programs 10 years
Goodwill represents the difference between the acquisition cost and the fair value of the percentage (of the Group) on the net assets acquired from every subsidiary company at the date of its acquisition. The goodwill arisen from subsidiary acquisitions is included in the intangible assets. At the end of every year, the Group evaluates if there is any indication of goodwill impairment. If such indications exist, a valuation analysis of the recoverability of the goodwill book value takes place. In case its carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount, an impairment provision is directly formed.
The gain or loss from the sale of a company also includes the carrying value of the goodwill associated with the company sold.
The tangible and intangible assets and other non current assets are examined for the possibility of impairment loss whenever facts or changes in circumstances point out that their current value may not be recoverable. Whenever the carrying amount of any asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the corresponding impairment loss is recognized in the income statement. The recoverable value of an asset is the largest amount between its estimated net selling price and its 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. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of the asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. If there is no ability to estimate the recoverable amount of an asset for which there is an indication of value impairment, then the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit in which the asset is grouped, is estimated instead.
Reversal of the impairment loss of assets which was accounted for in previous years, only occurs when there are sufficient indications that this impairment no longer exists or has been decreased. In such occasions the above mentioned reversal is recognized as a gain in the income statement.
The Group's investments in subsidiaries are accounted for under the line by line consolidation method. Subsidiaries are companies that the Group controls. Control is considered to exist, when the parent company has the ability to influence the subsidiaries' decisions, as far as the corporate and financial policies are concerned, aiming at receiving benefits from them. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared at the same date and have the same accounting policies with the parent company, in order to be included in the consolidated financial statements of the Group. All the inter company transactions, the intercompany profits or losses, as well as the intercompany balances, are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The subsidiaries are consolidated at the date the group takes over their control and stop being consolidated, at the date their control is transferred off the group.
The Group's investments in associate companies are accounted for under the equity method. Associate companies are those in which the Group has significant influence and are neither subsidiaries nor joint ventures. Investments in associate companies are initially recognized in the balance sheet by their acquisition cost and are later readjusted for the change, after the acquisition of the Group's percentage, in their equity minus any possible value impairment. The income statement reflects the group's share in the results of the associate company.
Available for sale investments refer to investments that are expected to last for an undetermined period of time but can be immediately sold in case of liquidity needs or interest rate changes. These investments are included in the non-current assets.
Sales or acquisitions of investments are accounted at their acquisition cost on the date of the trade transaction, which is the date when the Group is obliged either to buy or sell the asset. The acquisition cost includes transaction expenses. The available-for-sale-investments are evaluated in their fair value. The unrealised gains (losses) emerging from changes in the fair value of securities classified as available-for-sale are recognized directly to the equity. The fair value of investments is based on the offer price or on the prices generated by cash flows valuation models. The fair values of non publicly traded shares are computed with the use of ratios such as price to profits or price to cash flows, adjusted on the specific circumstances of the issuer. Stocks, the fair value of which cannot be accurately computed, are recognized at their acquisition cost less any impairment loss of their value. When investments characterized as available-for-sale are either sold or impaired, the accumulated adjustments of fair values are included in the income statement as gain or loss from investments.
Investment property is acquired with the purpose of obtaining benefit from earning rents and from the increase of its market value. The rest of the privately owned buildings and land are used for serving the Group's operations as well as for administrative purposes.
Investment property is accounted for long-term investments and is valuated at its fair value, which is equal to its current price formulated by independent real estate valuators. Changes in the fair value of investments in buildings and land are recognized in the income statement.
Inventories are accounted at the lower of acquisition or production cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value for finished goods is the estimated selling price, less estimated costs of disposal. The inventory cost is computed according to the weighted average cost method and includes acquisition expenses and transportation costs.
Receivables from customers are initially recognized at their fair value and later on are measured at their amortized cost with the use of the actual interest rate, less impairment losses. The impairment losses (losses from doubtful accounts) are recognized only when there is significant proof that the Group in not in the position of collecting all the amounts owed on the basis of conventional terms. The amount of the impairment loss is the difference between the book value of the receivables and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted by the actual interest rate. The amount of the impairment loss is recognized in the income statement as an expense.
Cash also include cash equivalents such as time deposits and short term deposits. Bank overdrafts, payable at first demand, which are inseparable part of the Group's management of cash and cash equivalents are included, for the purpose of the preparation of the cash flow statements, as elementary part of cash and cash equivalents.
Transactions expressed in foreign currencies are turned into euro with the currency price equivalent at the transaction date. On the date of the balance sheet, the assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies translated to Euro with the effective currency price of that date. The resulting foreign exchange differences are recognized in the income statement.
Common shares are characterized as capital. The related external cost directly attributable to the issuance of new shares is presented in share capital account, deductively from the receivable amount.
When acquiring own shares, the price paid, including all relative expenses, is deducted from the total equity.
Loans are initially recognized at cost, which is their fair value less the relative expenses of the contract date. After initial recognition, loans and borrowings are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Any difference between the amount received (minus the acquiring costs) and the repayment value is recognized in the income statement during the period of the loans.
Finance leases, which transfer to the Group 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 costs are charged directly to income statement.
Leased assets are depreciated in accordance to their useful life.
Current and deferred income taxes are computed according to the respective amounts of the financial statements, in accordance with the tax legislation in force in Greece. Income tax expense refers to taxes attributable to the taxable profits of the Group as adjusted according to the requirements of tax legislation and computed by the effective tax rate.
Deferred income taxation is computed, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases and book values of assets and liabilities.
The expected tax results resulting from the temporary tax differences are recognized and appeared as future (deferred) tax obligations or assets.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all the recognized temporary differences for tax purposes and taxable losses brought forward, at the extend that it is expected to exist available taxable profit against of which the recognized temporary tax differences can be utilized.
The book value of the deferred tax assets is reassessed at each balance sheet date and reduced at the extent where it is not considered as possible that enough taxable profits will be presented against which, a part or the total of the deferred tax assets can be utilised.
Current income tax assets and liabilities concerning current and prior years are measured at the amount of the tax payable to the tax authorities (or be recovered by them), with the use of tax rates (and tax laws) that are currently in force, or substantively be in force, at the balance sheet date.
Dividends payable are accounted for as a liability at the time of their approval by the General Meeting of Shareholders.
The Group's obligation towards people employed by it, for future payment of benefits according to each person's working experience, is computed and depicted on the basis of the expected to be paid earned right of each employee, at the balance sheet date, discounted at its present value, relative to its expected time of payment.The employed discount rate is equal to the return, at the balance sheet date of the long-term Greek State bonds.
The relative obligation is calculated according to the financial and actuarial assumptions that are analyzed in Note 31 and are determined using the Projected Unit Method. The net costs of retirement of the period are included in the wages cost in the accompanying income statement and are constituted by the present value of benefits that got accrued in the duration of period, the interest on the liabilities of benefits, the cost of previous service, the actuarial profits or losses and other retirement costs. The costs of previous service are recognized on a steady basis in the average period until the profits of the program are established. The non acceptable actuarial profits and losses, are recognized in the in average remaining duration of the period of services of the active employees and are included as part of the net cost of retirement of each period, if at the beginning of the period they exceed the 10% of future appreciated benefit liabilities. The liabilities for benefits of retirement are not funded.
The staff of the Group is mainly covered by the main Social Security Institution in relation to the private sector (I.K.A.) that grants retirement and medical-pharmaceutical benefits. Each worker is compelled to contribute part of his monthly wage to the fund, while part of the total contribution is covered by the Group. Upon retirement, the pension fund is in charge for the payment of the retirement benefits to the workers. Accordingly, the Group has no legal or presumptive obligation for the payment of future benefits consistent with this program.
Provisions are created when the Group has legal or presumptive liability, as a result of a past event, and is speculated that an outflow of resources will be required so that the obligation is arranged, and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made.
The provisions are reassessed in the end of each year and are adapted so as to depict the best possible estimates and in case it is judged necessary, they are discounted by a pre-tax discounting rate. The contingent liabilities are not recognised in the financial statements but are disclosed, except if the probability for an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. The contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements, but are disclosed if the inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Government grants are initially recognized in their nominal value when there is justifiable certainty that the funding will be received and that the Group will be conformed to all the forecasted terms.
Government grants with regard to current expenses are recognized in the income statement during that period when it is needed to correspond to the expenses that they are intended to balance.
Government grants with regard to market tangible assets (fixed assets) are included in the non-current liabilities as future income and recognized as income and are transferred to the income statement, during the useful life of the granted asset.
The basic financial instruments of the Group are cash, bank deposits and short-term receivables and liabilities. Given the short-term nature of these instruments, the management of the Group thinks that their fair value actually is the same with the value presented in the accounting books of the Group. Additionally, the management of the Group thinks that the interest rates payable relative to the loans under contract are equal to the market interest rates and accordingly, there are no circumstances pending for any adjustment of the presented value of these liabilities. The Group is not using financial derivatives.
Income from sales of goods is recognized when the significant risks and benefits of goods ownership are transferred to the buyer. Revenues from services supply are based on the level of completeness, which is defined by the reference of the services offered so far, as a percentage of the total amount of the services that are going to be offered.
Interest income is recognized on a basis of time analogy, taking into consideration the remaining balance of the initial amount and the existing rate for the period up to its ending, when it is defined that such income is payable to the Group.
Income from dividends is recognized at the approval date of their appropriation.
Payments that occur on the basis of operating leases are recognised in the income statement of the year as expenses during the period of use of the leased asset.
Finance leases, are dealt with as loan contracts, having as a result the representation (and amortization) of the leased assets as Group assets, with respective recognition of the finance liability to the leaser. The finance cost is recognized in the income statement as expense, at the time it is accrued.
The net financing cost is defined by the accrued interest expense on the existing loans, which is computed by the effective interest rate method.
The basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profits of the period with the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the particular period, excluding the average number of common shares of the parent company that were acquired by the companies of the Group as treasury shares.
A"segment" or "department" of the Group's operations is every denoted entrepreneurial activity with specific characteristics relative to the nature of the activity and the business risks it results in (business sector). A similar distinction occurs on the basis of the business environment in which the activity is developed (geographical sector).
The Group is mainly activated in the following fields: (a) introducing, organizing and operating clinical and scientific centers equipped with advanced technology equipment as well as in the offering of medical services of various natures, (b) information technology and special applications and (c) stock market financial services.
The Group is exposed in various financial dangers, the most important of which are the unexpected variations of interest-rates, the credit risk and the liquidity danger. The management policies of the relative risks of the Group aim at the minimisation of negative repercussions that they may have in the financial position and performance of the Group. As mentioned earlier in paragraph 3.22, the main financial instruments of the Group are cash, banking deposits, commercial and other receivables and liabilities and bank loans. The Management of the Group examines and revises in regular time intervals the relative policies and processes with regard to the management of the financial risks as described in the following:
Credit risk: The Group has explicit credit policy which is consistently applied. The Group has a large number of customers and consequently the wide variance of its cliental base contributes to the existence of low credit risk concerning these receivables. The Management of the Group continuously watches the financial position of its customers, the size and the limits of the provided credits. At the end of the year the Management considered that there is no important credit risk that could not be covered by some guarantee or by a sufficient provision for doubtful debts. The highest exposure in credit risk is reflected by the amount of each item of the assets.
Fair value: The amounts of the cash equivalents, the receivables and the current liabilities presented in the balance-sheet, approach their respective fair value because of their shortterm expiration date.
Interest-rate risk: The risk of the interest-rates variance sources mainly from long-term and short-term loan liabilities. The Management continuously observes the variance of the interest-rates and the financing needs of the Group and evaluates per case the duration of the loans, the relation between fixed and floating rate as well as the need for hedging risks that arise from them.
Exchange risk: The Group does not face exchange risks as up to the end of the closing year, no transactions in foreign currency had been realised and the total of the assets and liabilities was in Euros.
Liquidity risk: The liquidity risk is maintained in low levels, through the availability of sufficient cash equivalents and credit limits. The existing available, unused and approved banking credits to the Group, are sufficient so that any likely lack of cash and cash equivalents to be confronted.
The management of the Group proceeds in estimates, admissions and evaluative crises in order to either select the most suitable accounting principles and rules concerning the future development of events and evolvement of situations and transactions. These estimates and admissions are re-examined periodically so that they correspond to the current data and reflect the current risks and are based on the previous experience of the Management of the Group concerning the nature and the level of the relative transactions and facts.
The basic estimates and evaluative judgements that are relative to data, the development of which could influence the accounts of the financial statements for the next twelve months are as following:
The Group holds the allowed for from the provisions of the I.F.R.S. impairment test of the goodwill that emerged from the merger or acquisition of companies that it controls or influences annually in an essential way. Part of the process of the determination of the recoverable amount of each investment, constitutes the calculation of the value in use of the cash generating units in which the relative goodwill has been attributed. The calculation of the value in use requires the realisation of valuations of the forecasted (future) cash flows of each cash generating unit, as well as the choice of a suitable discount rate of these in the present (see also in the note 17).
The percentage of completion method provided by I.A.S. 11 is used by the Group for revenue recognition from project construction and advanced technology services contracts relative to defensive systems and technology. According to this method, the cost for the realization of agreements in process is compared on the balance sheet date with the total budgeted cost of completing each of these to determine the completion percentage of each contract. The cumulative revisions and revaluations of the budgeted project cost as well as the conventional revenue are accounted for in the years in which the revisions – revaluations occur. The budgeted cost and conventional revenue of each project construction and advanced technology services contract emerge after estimating processes and are revaluated and revised at every balance sheet date.
As mentioned earlier all of the Group's companies are activated in the fields of medical services, information technology and stock exchange financial services.

On the 31/12/2006, an impairment test of the final goodwill balances that the Group had paid for the acquisition of its participation percentage in each existing subsidiary on this date took place, according to the provisions of I.A.S. 36. The recoverable amount (the value of use of each existing subsidiary company on that date) was higher than the adjusted accounting balance of goodwill and of the net assets of each cash generating unit except from the subsidiary company ALEKSANDREIO CARDIOLOGICAL CARDIOSURGICAL CENTER S.A. the goodwill of which was impaired by the amount of € 399.
The recoverable amount of each subsidiary was determined according to the calculation of its value in use. The value in use was calculated in accordance with the forecasted cash flows that covered a five-year period. The pre-tax discount rate which the forecasted cash flows were discounted with, rose to 9,7 %-13,6 % (2005: the 9,4 %-12,0 %) and the forecasted cash flows beyond the five-year period were determined with growth rate equal to 2,5 %-3,0 % (2005: 2,5 %-3,0 %), that is the estimated average growth rate of each segment of operation.
Budgeted profit margins: The basis used to determine the value assigned to the budgeted profit margins is the actual average gross profit margins achieved by each cash generating unit in the preceding five years period. Specific weight was given to the gross profit margins of the last two years, as they were estimated to be more representative of the current conditions.
Capital expenditures: All the necessary estimated acquisitions of tangible fixed assets as
well as of working capital needs were taken into account, based on the latest five years actual needs, in order for each cash-generating unit (subsidiary) to maintain its production capacity and market share.
Bond rates: The yield on a 10 year Greek government bond rate at the beginning of the budgeted year is utilized and the value assigned to the key assumption is consistent with the external information sources.

The cost of extra benefits is related mainly to benefits paid to employees who became redundant. The larger part of those was not anticipated in frame of the existing pension program so the payments for the extra benefits were accounted for as additional pension charge. The additional pension charge for the year ended in the 31st of December 2006 was € 112 (2005: 101).
Government grants are related to investments in fixed assets and are recognized as income simultaneously with the fixed assets' depreciation–mechanical equipment at most–that were subsided. The sum of grant that was transported in the income statement during the year amounted in € 29 (2005: € 29). In relation to the law constitutions, in frame of which the grant
occurred, several restrictions exist in relation to the transfer of the subsided machinery and to the legal existence of the subsided company. During the audits performed by proper authorities, a situation of non compliance with these restrictions has not yet been identified.
