Appendix of interim individual and consolidated financial statements (V)

1. General information

The Company seat is installed in Athinon Avenue – Asprochoma, Kalamata, its website is www.karelia.gr, and the Company is listed on the Athens Stock Exchange ("branch of tobacco").

The consolidated financial statements of the Company cover the Company itself and its subsidiaries also (the "Group").

MERIDIAN S.A. ATHENS 99.54% Subsidiary
KARELIA INVESTING S.A. KALAMATA 85% Subsidiary
KARELIA TOBACCO LTD LONDON 100% Subsidiary

The financial statements in question have been approved by the Board of Directors on March 22nd 2006 so as to be published.

The significant accounting principles used by the Group

2.1. Framework of drawing up of financial statements

The present financial statements of KARELIA TOBACCO COMPANY regard the fiscal year 2005. They have been drawn up in conformity with the FIIS (Financial Information International Standards) adopted by the European Union. The accounting principles that are described herebelow have been applied to all the periods shown.

The individual and consolidated financial statements of the Company have been drawn up on the basis of the Greek Accounting Standards up to 31.12.2004 inclusive. In some areas these standards differ from the FIIS. The 2004 comparative elements have been reformulated in conformity with the accounting principles and accounting appraisals adopted for the FIIS.

Reconciliations and descriptions of the impact due to the transition from the Greek Accounting Standards to the FIIS for the net position and the results are provided for in note 5.

The present financial statements have been drawn up in the framework of the historical cost with the exception of some financial property assets (participation titles), which were assessed at their reasonable value and with changes acknowledged in the results (Assessable at reasonable value with changes in the results) and is expressed in Euros.

The drawing up of the financial statements in accordance with the FIIS requires the use of analytical accounting appraisals and deliberations for the application of accounting principles. The areas for which appraisals and admissions have been made are quoted in note 32.

2.2. Consolidation – Assessment of subsidiaries and affiliate enterprises

The accounting method used for the consolidation is the method of acquisition. The cost for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the reasonable value of the property assets employed, the participation titles issued and the obligations taken up on the date of the exchange, plus any eventual cost directly imputable to the transaction. The individualized property assets, obligations and eventual obligations which constitute an enterprising consolidation, are assessed when acquired at their reasonable values irrespective of the participation percentage. The cost beyond the reasonable value of the partial elements acquired is entered as surplus value. If the overall acquisition cost is inferior to the reasonable value of the partial elements acquired, the discrepancy is directly entered in the results.

Inter-corporate transactions and inter-corporate balances as well as unrealized profits from transactions held between the companies of the Group are deleted. The unrealized losses are deleted unless there is an indication of wastage regarding the transferred property asset. The accounting principles are identical with those adopted by the Group.

The participations in subsidiaries on the individualized balance-sheet of the Parent Company are assessed at their acquisition cost minus the wastage losses.

2.3. Information per sector

The productive activity of the Company (Mother Company) is exclusively pursued within Greece. The sales regard exports at a percentage of 70%, towards more than 60 countries.

2.4. Corporeal fixed assets a) Self-used corporeal fixed assets

The corporeal fixed assets are assessed at their acquisition cost minus depreciations. The acquisition cost includes all the directly imputable expenditure for the acquisition of the fixed assets. Any posterior expenditure is entered in so as to enhance the accounting value of the corporeal fixed assets only when it is thought likely that future economic benefits will inflow into the Company the cost of which can be reliably assessed. The repairs and maintenances, when carried out, are entered in the results.

The building plots are not depreciated. The depreciations of the other assets of the corporeal fixed assets are calculated on the basis of the steady method during their useful life, which has as follows:

Building premises 60 years
Machinery and mechanical equipment 3 -48 years
Means of transport 5 - 7 years
Data processing equipment 3 - 5 years

The residual values are not acknowledged.

When the accounting values of the corporeal fixed assets exceed their recoverable value, the discrepancies (wastage) are entered in the results as expenses.

When selling the corporeal fixed assets, the discrepancies between the price received and their accounting value are entered in the results as profits or losses.

b) Investments in real properties

The investments in real properties are assessed at their acquisition cost minus depreciations and losses of wastage.

2.5. Incorporeal property assets

Software

The software licenses are assessed at their acquisition cost minus depreciations. The depreciations are carried out on the basis of the steady method during the useful life of such property assets which oscillates between 3 and 5 years.

2.6. Wastage of property assets value

The depreciated property assets are subject to wastage control of their value, when there are indications that their accounting value will not be recovered. The recoverable value is the highest value between the reasonable value decreased by the cost required for the sale, and the usage value. The wastage losses, when occurring, are entered in the results as expenses.

2.7. Inventories

The inventories stated at the lower value between acquisition cost and net liquidable value. The cost is determined by means of the average (annual) leveled cost for the products and goods, and the monthly circulatory mean for the raw materials and other stocks. The net liquidable value is estimated on the basis of the stocks current sales prices in the framework of the usual activity deducted any eventual sale expenses, as the case may be.

2.8. Claims from clients

The claims from clients are initially entered in at their reasonable value, which coincides with their nominal value, deducted the wastage losses. The wastage losses (losses from contingent claims) are acknowledged when there is an objective substantiation that the Group is not able to collect all the amounts that are due on the basis of the contractual clauses. The amount of the wastage loss is the discrepancy between the accounting value of the claims and the estimated future cash flows. The amount of the wastage loss is entered in the results as expense.

2.9. Cash and cash equivalents

The cash and cash equivalents include cash money, deposits and short-term investments up to 3 months, of high liquidability and low risk

2.10. Transactions in foreign currencies

The transactions that are expressed in foreign currencies are converted into Euros by virtue of the currency parity effective on the transaction date. On the balance-sheet date, the numismatic property assets and the obligations, which are expressed in foreign currencies, are converted into Euros by virtue of the currency parity that is effective on that date. The currency discrepancies arising from the conversion are entered in the results account.

2.11. Share capital

The common shares are classified among the equity capitals. Direct costs for the issue of shares emerge after the deduction of the relevant income tax, so as to decrease the product of the issue. Direct costs related to the issue of shares for the acquisition of enterprises are included in the acquisition cost of the acquired enterprise.

The acquisition cost of own shares decreased by the income tax (depending on the case) is shown deductively on the equity capitals of the Group, till when the own shares are sold or cancelled. Any profit or loss from the sale of own shares net from any other direct costs and income tax regarding such transaction, depending on the case, is shown as reserve in the equity capitals.

2.12. Deferred income tax

The deferred income tax is determined through the method of obligation deriving from the provisional discrepancies between the accounting value and the tax base of the property assets and the obligations.

The adjourned tax is determined through the tax coefficients that are expected to be effective during the recovery time of the property assets and the obligations accounting value.

The adjourned tax claims are entered in to an extent, under which there will be a future taxable profit for the use of the provisional discrepancy which creates the adjourned tax claim.

2.13. Allowances to workers

(a) Short-term allowances

The short-term allowances in money or in species towards the personnel are entered in as expense when they become accrued.

(b) Allowances after retirement from service

The allowances after the retirement from service include not only plans of determined contributions (state social insurance) but also plans of determined allowances (lump sum allowances at the retirement imposable by Law 2112/20). The accrued cost of plans for determined allowances is entered in as expense in the concerned period. The obligation that is entered in the balance-sheet for the plans of determined allowances is the actual value of the commitment for the determined allowance. The commitment of the determined allowance is annually calculated on an actuarian basis using the projected unit credit method. For the prepayment the long-term bonds interest rate of the Greek State is used.

2.14. Provisions

The provisions are made when the Group has a legal or deemed obligation, as a result of facts of the past, and it is thought likely that an outflow of economic benefit for the settlement of such obligation will be required.

2.15. Revenue recognition

The revenues include the reasonable value of the sales of goods and services rendered net from recovered taxes, discounts and refunds. The inter-corporate revenues of the Group are fully deleted. The revenue recognition is effected as follows:

(a) Sales of goods

The sales of goods are recognized when the Group delivers the goods to the clients, the goods are acceptable by the clients and the collection of the claim is reasonably ensured. The sales of goods include also the consumption tax (domestic sales).

(b) Revenues from interests

The revenues from interests are recognized on the basis of the annual proportion and with the use of the real rate of interest.

(c) Revenues from rights

The revenues from rights are deemed on the basis of the accrued, in accordance with the essence of the respective contracts.

(d) Dividends

The dividends are deemed as revenues when their right of collection, namely when they are acknowledged and approved by the organ that is competent by the law to grant them, is established.

2.16.Leases (The Group as lessee)

Leases of corporeal fixed assets where the Group runs essentially all the risks and has all the rewards of the property are classified as financial leases. The financial leases are capitalized when concluding the lease, at the lowest value between the reasonable value of the leased corporeal fixed assets and the current value of the minimum rents. Each rent is divided into the obligation and the financial expense so as a stable interest rate on the unpaid obligation to be obtained. The obligation for the payable rents net from the financial cost is included in the other long-term obligations. The interests are entered in the statement of results account during the lease period so as a stable periodic rate of interest to exist for the remainder of the obligation on each date of balance-sheet. The corporeal fixed assets that are acquired by means of financial leases are depreciated in the shorter period as it is determined by the useful life and the time of lease. In the operational leases the rents are entered in the results as expenses by virtue of the steady method on the basis of the accrued.

2.17. Distribution of dividends

The distribution of dividends to the Parent Company shareholders is entered in the financial statements, either individual or consolidated, as obligation when the distribution is approved by the General Assembly of the Shareholders.

3. Management of financial risk

Factors of financial risk

(a) Credit risk

The Company has no significant concentrations of credit risk. The sales are achieved towards selected clients and in some cases guarantees are given.

(b) Risk of liquidity

The risk of liquidity is zero through the availability of high cash availabilities/liquid funds and credit margins.

(c) Currency risk

The Company is subject to currency risk granted that the 40% of the sales (achieved) and, by extension, of the claims (expressed) in US Dollars (US\$). This risk, however, is significantly moderated because of the obligations in US\$ to purchase tobacco.

4. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The appraisals and deliberations of the Administration are constantly under reexamination on the basis of the historic facts and the expectations for future occurrences, which are judged reasonable in accordance with what is operative.

The Company proceeds to appraisals and acceptances with regard to the evolution of the future occurrences. There are no appraisals or acceptances involving significant risk so as to cause essential adjustments to the accounting values of the property assets and the obligations for the next 12 months.

5. Transition to the FIIS (Financial Information International Standards)

5.1 Basis for the transition to the FIIS

5.1.1 Application of the FIIS 1

The Company and the Group financial statements for the fiscal year to end on December 31st 2005 will be the first annual financial statements in conformity with the FIIS. The Group has applied the FIIS 1. The reference date is December 31st 2005. The FIIS adoption date is January 1st 2005. For the drawing up of the first financial statements pursuant to the FIIS, the Group has applied some of the optional exceptions of the retroactive application.

5.1.2 Exceptions from full retroactive application selected by the Group

(a) Deemed cost of corporeal fixed assets

Some corporeal fixed assets of the Company (immovable properties) were assessed at the value configured on 01.01.2004, on the basis of the readjustment coefficients of Law 2065/92 granted that these values were almost identical with the reasonable values on that date and were only readjusted the accumulated depreciations so as to reflect the useful life of such fixed assets.

(b) Allowances to workers

The Company has chosen to acknowledge all the accumulated actuarian profits and losses as of 01.01.2004.

5.1.3 Effect of appraisals between Greek Accounting Standards and FIIS

The appraisals in conformity with the FIIS on 01.01.2004 are consistent with the appraisals made on the same date in conformity with the Greek Accounting Standards, except for the cases that there is evidence of such appraisals being erroneous. Such cases are the useful lives of the fixed assets which, under the previous regime, were based on the tax provisions.
