These condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared by ASTARTA HOLDING PLC (the "Company"), the Company is a Cyprus public limited company and registered under the Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113. The Company was incorporated as ASTARTA Holding N.V. in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, on 9 June 2006.
On 06 April 2022 the Board of Directors of ASTARTA Holding N.V. adopted a resolution on the approval of the proposal of the Board to convert ASTARTA Holding N.V., a public limited company (naamloze vennootschap) governed by Dutch law, into ASTARTA HOLDING PLC, a public limited company governed by Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113, i.e. by way of a cross-border migration of the registered office of the Company without its dissolution or liquidation followed by its subsequent reregistration in accordance with Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113.
On 16 June 2022 conversion proposal was approved on Annual General meeting of shareholders.
With effect from 16 September 2022, the Company's registered office and corporate domicile was transferred to Cyprus and the Company is registered in the Registrar of Companies in Cyprus.
On and from 16 September 2022, the Company's legal address is Lampousas 1, 1095, Nicosia, Cyprus.
On 4 July 2006 the shareholders of the Company contributed their shares in the Cyprus based company Ancor Investments Ltd to ASTARTA HOLDING PLC. After the contribution, ASTARTA HOLDING PLC owns 100% of share capital of Ancor Investment Ltd.
Ancor Investments Ltd owns 99.99% of the capital of LLC Firm "Astarta-Kyiv" (Astarta-Kyiv) registered in Ukraine, which in turn controls a number of subsidiaries in Ukraine (hereinafter the Company and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the "Group" or "Astarta").
On 16 August 2006 the Company's shares were admitted for trading on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The first quotation of the shares on the Warsaw Stock Exchange took place on 17 August 2006.
The Group specializes in sugar production, crop growing, soybean processing and cattle farming. The croplands, sugar and soybean processing plants and cattle operations are mainly located in the Poltava, Vinnytsia, Khmelnytsky, Chernihiv, Zhytomyr, Ternopil and Kharkiv oblasts (administrative regions) of Ukraine. The Group's business is vertically integrated because sugar is produced primarily using own-grown sugar beet and soybeans processed are also grown in-house.
The events which led to the annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation in February 2014 and the conflict in the East of Ukraine which started in spring 2014 have not been resolved to date. On 24 February 2022 the Russian Federation started full-scale military invasion of Ukraine. Following that the Ukrainian government introduced a martial law throughout Ukraine.
Under martial law the National Bank of Ukraine ("NBU") introduced a range of temporary restrictions that had impact on the economic environment, such as restriction of cross-border payments in foreign currency, fixing the official exchange rate for USD for the period from 24 February 2022 till 3 October 2023 at 29,25-36,57 UAH per 1 USD, suspending debit transactions from the accounts of residents of the state that carried out an armed aggression against Ukraine. Since 3 October 2023 the NBU has shifted to the regime of managed flexibility of the exchange rate for USD. On 13 June 2024 the NBU decreased the refinancing rate from 13.5% to 13%. These measures were designed to preserve the stability of the Ukrainian financial system, support the Armed Forces of Ukraine and functioning of critical infrastructure.
Inflation picked up ahead of the military invasion and continued to unfold after the Russian invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022. Food and fuel experienced the highest spikes due to surging demand and disruptions in supply chains. Disrupted logistics and higher production costs along with increase in global energy prices continues to fuel inflation in Ukraine.
The Ukrainian government took various measures to support agricultural operations in Ukraine. The government approved a mechanism of state guarantees for the loans to small and medium-sized farmers.
Ukraine's economic growth depends upon resolving the Russian invasion of Ukraine, successful implementation of necessary reforms the recovery strategy by the Ukrainian government and cooperation with international donors.
The long-term effects of the current economic situation are difficult to predict and management's current expectations and estimates could differ from the actual results.
The ongoing political and economic uncertainties persist due to the Russian military invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and they continue to affect the Ukrainian economy and the Group's business.
These condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended 30 September 2024 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023 which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union (IFRS-EU) and the requirements of the Cyprus Companies Law Cap.113. The material accounting policies applied in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are set in Note 3 or in the separate Notes to these condensed consolidated financial statements.
On 24 February 2022 Russia initiated a full-scale military invasion of Ukraine. This was followed up by the immediate enactment of martial law by the government of Ukraine and corresponding introduction of the related temporary restrictions that impact the economic environment. Considering the above, Astarta has assessed the going concern assumption based on which the financial statements have been prepared.
Geographical diversification of the Group's assets' location allows it to keep most of the assets apart from the regions under intense military hostilities. The assets of the Group are located in the Central part of Ukraine (the Poltava region), the Northern part of Ukraine (the Chernihiv region), the East (the Kharkiv region) and the Western part (the Khmelnytskyi, Vinnytsya, Zhytomyr and Ternopil regions). As at the date of the issue of these condensed consolidated financial statements:
Agricultural subsidiaries of the Group perform maintenance operations. By the date of these condensed financial statements spring crops harvesting has been complete except for sugar beets, winter crops sowing also complete, and a new sugar production season is in progress.
As of the date of the issue of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the soybean processing plant operated at its normal crushing capacity.
The management of the Group expects to continue shipments of the goods to local buyers and to EU countries. Inhouse agricultural and office IT solutions allow Astarta to support business processes remotely under current conditions if needed. However, in case of any disruption to centralized systems, all operating subsidiaries can operate autonomously.
Astarta continues to sell crops, sugar, milk and soybean crushing products on the domestic market as well as expanding export operations. During 2023, the export through the Black Sea ports was partially renewed and the Group exported grain to various countries via sea transportation routes. The Group also realises export sales via railway and using trucks for sugar and soybean products.
The Group has sufficient storage capacities to take and keep the future harvest. As of today, the main issue is logistics and its cost. Export is possible for all types of commodities.
Astarta is not trading with the entities on the Ukrainian, EU and US sanctions lists or entities associated with the individuals under those sanctions.
As at 30 September 2024 the Group was in compliance with covenants on its loans. The Group does not foresee the breach of covenants during 2024. As at 30 September 2024 management also prepared the forecast of covenants
Condensed consolidated financial statements as at and for the nine months ended 30 September 2024
up until and covering Q4 2025. Based on this, management expects that the Group will be able to meet the covenants for the upcoming 12 months from the date of these condensed financial statements with considerable headroom for the contracted ratios. In management's view, the sustainability of headroom will be ensured through the stable level of external long-term debt. Amid improvement of market conditions, Ukrainian sugar producers can trade with EU markets and Worldwide within quotas established by the EU and Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine. Stable level of external long-term debt will be maintained through the servicing of existing debt as per initial loan schedules.
On 4 June 2024 the Annual General Meeting of the Company declared a resolution to pay a distribution of EUR 0.50 per share on all ordinary shares in the total amount of EUR 12,500 thousand. On 3 July 2024 dividends were paid for all shares except for treasury shares in the amount of EUR 12,235 thousand.
As of the date of these condensed consolidated financial statements, condition and safety of the Group's assets are not significantly affected by the military invasion by the Russian Federation and the operating, logistic processes were reassessed by the Group to ensure continuity of its business, as described above. Management is taking appropriate actions to continuously revise its businesses processes and practices and prepared a 12 months budget from the date of these condensed consolidated financial statements based on the assumption that the degree of intensity of military hostilities in the regions where the Group's assets are located and the area of the Ukrainian territory currently invaded by the Russian troops is not largely increased; the Group is able to carry out sowing and harvesting of crops; the Group is able to continue delivering its goods domestically and for export combining different means of transportation available; it will be possible to operate sugar processing plants after harvesting sugar beet in the 2024/25 marketing year; the Group will be able to obtain export licenses for some of its agricultural products.
While the Group's operations were not largely impacted so far and management prepared its 12 months budget based on the known facts and events, there is a significant uncertainty over the future development of the Russian armed intervention, its duration and short and long-term impact on the Group, its assets, employees and operations. There might be multiple scenarios of further development with unknown likelihood, and the magnitude of the impact on the Group might vary from significant to severe. This represents a single source of material uncertainty, which may cast significant doubt about the Group's ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, the Group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Management is frequently assessing the current situation and making appropriate adjustments to its business operations to mitigate any impact on the Group. Based on these and other steps the Group is taking, management concluded that it is appropriate to prepare the condensed consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis.
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Group will be able to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
The condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group and its subsidiaries as at 30 September 2024. Subsidiaries are those investees that are controlled by the Group. Control is achieved as the Group exercises, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and can affect those returns through its power over the investees.

The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on a historical cost basis, except for buildings, constructions and machinery and equipment classified as property, plant and equipment accounted under revaluation model, biological assets at fair value less estimated costs to sell and agricultural produce stated at cost which is determined as fair value less estimated costs to sell at the point of harvest.
Intercompany balances and transactions, and any unrealised gains arising from intercompany transactions, are eliminated in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Substantially all the Group's subsidiaries are Ukrainian limited liability companies. Under Ukrainian law, a participant in a limited liability company may unilaterally withdraw from the company. In such case, the company is obliged to pay the withdrawing participant's a share of the net assets of the company not later than in 12 months from the date of the withdrawal. Redemption amount of participant's a share of the net assets of the company is assessed based on market value of net assets. Since the non-controlling participants in limited liability companies did not announce their intentions to withdraw, their interest was recognised as a non-current liability. Limited liability company's noncontrolling participants' share in the net profit/loss is recorded as a finance expense.
Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the separate financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. The functional currency of the Company and its Swiss and Cypriot subsidiaries is Euro (EUR). The operating subsidiaries registered in Ukraine have the Ukrainian hryvnia (UAH) as their functional currency.
The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in UAH, which is a primary presentation currency, and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand, except when otherwise indicated. For the benefit of certain users, the Group also presents all numerical information in EUR. The translation of UAH denominated assets and liabilities into EUR in these condensed consolidated financial statements does not necessarily mean that the Group could realise or settle in EUR the reported values of these assets and liabilities. Likewise, it does not necessarily mean that the Group could return or distribute the reported EUR value retained earnings to its shareholders. For the purpose of presenting financial information in EUR, assets and liabilities of the Ukrainian subsidiaries are translated from UAH to EUR using the official closing rates at each reporting date. Components of equity are translated at the historic rate. Annual realisation of revaluation surplus is translated at historical rate. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the quarter, unless the exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Disclosure line items are translated using annual weighted average official exchange rate. For translation of UAH figures into EUR figures for the cash flow statement the Group uses average UAH/EUR exchange rate. For the purposes of presenting financial information in UAH, assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries for which functional currency in EUR are translated from EUR to UAH using the official closing rates at each reporting date and income and expenses are translated at the official spot rates at the date of transaction.
Translation differences arising, if any, are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the Currency translation reserve.
The principal Ukrainian Hryvnia ("UAH") exchange rates used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements are as follows:
| Currency | Average reporting period rate | Reporting date rate | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | 30 September 2024 | 31 December 2023 | 30 September 2023 | ||
| EUR | 43.19 | 39.63 | 45.95 | 42.21 | 38.55 | |
| USD | 39.73 | 36.57 | 41.17 | 37.98 | 36.57 |
The material accounting policy information and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023.
The following amended standards became effective from 1 January 2024, but did not have any material impact on the Group:
