  • the criteria for recognition, measurement and evaluation compliant with the International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by the European Union ("IFRS");
  • Law no.82 of 1991 for accounting, republished and updated;

The FINANCIAL STATEMENTS were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on Octomber 25, 2019.

b. Presentation of financial statements

The financial statements are presented according to IAS 1 requirements "Presentation of financial statements". The Company adopted a presentation based on liquidity in the financial position statement and a presentation of income and expenses depending on their nature in the global result statement, considering that these presentation methods offer information which is credible and more relevant than those which would have been presented based on other methods permitted by IAS 1.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (cont.)

c. Basis of the assessment

The FINANCIAL STATEMENTS were drafted according to the historical cost, excepting lands and buildings that are held at the reassessed value and of real estate investments that are held at fair value.

These FINANCIAL STATEMENTS were drafted for general purposes, for the use of persons that know the provisions of the International Financing Reporting Standards, applicable to companies whose securities are admitted to trading on a regulated market, approved by the Order of the Ministry of Public Finances 2844/2016.

In consequence, these FINANCIAL STATEMENTS shall not be considered as the unique source of information by a potential investor or by another user.

d. Functional and presentation currency

The Company management considers that the functional currency, as it is defined by IAS 21 "Effects of exchange rate variation" is the Romanian leu ("RON"). The individual financial statements are presented in lei, rounded off to the nearest leu, currency the company management chose as currency for presentation.

The transactions in foreign currency are expressed in lei by application of exchange rate on transactiond day. The monetary assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currency at end of period are expressed in lei at the exchange rate from that date. Gains and losses from differences of the exchange rate, achieved or not achieved, are registered in the Statement of the global result of that respective period.

e. Use of estimations and professional reasoning

Preparation of the FINANCIAL STATEMENTS according to the Order no. 2844/2016, as further amended, proposes the use by the management of certain professional reasonings, estimations and hypotheses that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported value of the assets, debts, incomes and expenses. The effective results may differ from the estimated values.

Estimations and hypotheses that are the base of these are periodically reviewed. The reviews of the accounting estimations are recognized in the period in which the estimation was reviewed and in the future affected periods.

Information on the uncertainties due to hypotheses and estimations that involve a significant risk regarding the need of certain adjustments in the current and previous financial year are included in the following notes:

  • Note 7 Expenses with salaries and social contributions;
  • Note 12 Receivables and debts regarding deferred tax;
  • Note 25 Provisions;
  • Note 26, 27 Commercial debts and other debts;
  • Note 29 Commitments and contingents

The estimations and assumptions associated to these estimations are based on the historical experience, as well as other factors considered reasonable in the context of these estimations. The results of these estimations and hypotheses form the base of judgments regarding the accounting values of assets and debts that may not be obtained from other sources of information.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies were applied consistently to all the periods presented in the financial statements drawn up by the Company.

The financial statements are drawn up based on the hypothesis that the Company will continue its activity in the predictable future. For evaluation of applicability of this hypothesis, the management analyses the forecasts regarding the future entries of cash.

a. Transactions in foreign currency

The operations expressed in foreign currency are recorded in lei at the official exchange rate communicated by the National Bank of Romania ("NBR") for the transaction date. Balances in foreign currency are converted in RON at the exchange rates communicated by NBR on September 30, 2019.

Gains and losses arising from the settlement of transactions in a foreign currency and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are recognized in the individual income statement as part of the financial result.

Non-monetary assets and debts are expressed in the foreign currency that are assessed at fair value are converted in the functional currency at the exchange rate of the date in which the fair value was determined. The non-monetary elements that are assessed at historical cost in a foreign currency are converted using the exchange rate of the date in which the transaction was made.

The exchange rates of the main foreign currencies according to NBR report are:

30 September
2019
01 January
2019
EUR 4.7511 4.6639
USD 4.3488 4.0736

b. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalences include: the effective cash, current accounts, deposits at banks and collectable values (cheques and collected bills).

In the elaboration of cash flow statement as of September 30, 2019, respectively January 01, 2019 the Company considered as cash and cash equivalences: effective cash, current accounts at banks and collected values (cheques and collected bills).

c. Financial assets and financial liabilities

An asset is a resource controlled by the entity as result of past events and from which it is foreseen that future economic benefits will result for the entity.

A liability represents a current obligation of the entity, resulted from past events, whose deduction is expected to determine an exit of resources by incorporating economic benefits from the entity.

(i) Classification of financial assets

According to IFRS 9, the financial assets are classified in one of the following categories:

  • Financial assets evaluated at fair value by the profit and loss account ("FVTPL"):
  • investments in administered funds (fund units);

  • participation interests in subsidiaries and associated entities (equity shares in Transport Ceahlau SRL).

  • Financial assets evaluated at depreciated cost:

  • customer receivables and other receivables.

c. Financial assets and financial liabilities (to be continued)

(i) Classification of financial assets (to be continued)

The company classifies the financial instruments held in the following categories:

Financial assets evaluated at fair value by the profit and loss account ("FVTPL"):

An investment in a security must be evaluated at fair value by the profit and loss account, unless the management makes an irrevocable option, at initial recognition, for measurement at fair value by other elements of the global result.

The financial assets are classified in this category if they are purchased in view of trading.

An asset is held in view of trading if it cumulatively fulfils the following conditions:

  • It is held for sale and redemption in the near future;
  • At initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of financial instruments identified, which are managed together and for which there are proofs of a real recent pattern of profit follow-up on short term.

This category includes financial assets or financial liabilities held for trading and financial instruments designated at fair value by the profit and loss account at the initial recognition and includes investments in administered funds. These assets are mainly purchased to generate profit from short-term price fluctuations.

Financial assets at fair value through the profit and loss account are recorded in the statement of financial position at fair value.

A gain or loss on these instruments is recognized directly in the profit and loss account.

Receivables

Receivables are non-derivated financial assets with fixed or determinable payments which are not quoted on an active market.

Receivables include commercial receivables and other receivables. They are mainly composed of customers and similar accounts which include invoices issued at nominal value and estimated receivables for services provided, but invoiced in the period that follows the end of period.

The company holds customers and similar accounts in view of collection of contractual cash flows. Therefore, they are classified as measured at amortised cost.

Final losses may vary from current estimates. Due to the inherent lack of information regarding the financial position of the clients and the lack of legal collection mechanisms, estimates of probable losses are uncertain. However, the management of the Company has made the best estimate of the loss and considers that this estimate is reasonable in the given circumstances. In the estimation of losses, the Company also took into account the previous experience for a an individual and collective assessment, as presented in Note 3.i.(i). Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount less adjustments for impairment of these receivables (see Note 3.i.(i)).

c. Financial assets and financial liabilities (to be continued)

(i) Classification of financial assets (to be continued)

Financial debts

The Company initially recognizes debt instruments issued and the subordinated debt at the date of the transaction, when the Company becomes part of the contractual debt terms.

An entity must derecognise a financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) from the financial position statement when and only when it is liquidated - when the obligation specified in contract is extinguished or cancelled or expires.

These financial debts are initially recognized at fair value plus any directly attributable trading costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial debts are measured at amortized cost.

Debts to suppliers and other debts, initially recorded at fair value and subsequently measured using the effective interest method, include the equivalent value of the invoices issued by the suppliers of products, works executed and services rendered.

(ii) Recognition

The assets and liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a Party to the conditions of that instrument.

(iii) Compensations

The financial assets and liabilities are compensated and the net result is presented in the financial position statement only when there is a legal settiing-off right and if there is the intention of their deduction on a net basis or if the Company intends to earn the asset and extinguish the liability simultaneously.

The income and expenses are presented with net values when this is allowe by the accounting standards or for the profit and loss resulted from a group of similar transactions such as those from the trading activity of the Company.

(iv) Evaluation at depreciated cost

The depreciated cost of an financial asset or liability represents the value at which the financial asset or liability is measured at the initial recognition, less the principal payments, to which we add or deduct the depreciation cumulated until that time by using the effective interest method less the reductions related to impairment losses.

(v) Evaluation at fair value

The fair value is the price which would be received as a result of sale of an asset or the price which would be paid to transfer a liability by a normal transaction between participants on the market at evaluation date (i.e. an exit price).

(vi) Identification and evaluation of impairment

Financial assets evaluated at depreciated cost:

The Company analyses at each reporting date if there is an objective clue by which a financial asset is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if and only if there are objective clues regarding the impairment appeared as a result of one or many events which took place after the initial recognition of the asset ("loss-generating event") and the loss-generating event or events have an impact on the future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets which can be credibly estimated.

c. Financial assets and financial liabilities (to be continued)

(vi) Financial assets evaluated at depreciated cost (to be continued)

If there are objective clues that an impairment loss of financial assets measured at depreciated cost has occurred, then the loss is measured as difference between the book value of asset and the discounted value of future cash flows by using the effective interest rate of financial asset at initial moment.

If a financial asset measured at depreciated cost has a variable interest rate, the discounted rate for evaluation of any impairment loss is the variable current interest rate specified in the contract.

The book value of an asset is reduced by the Company by using a provision account. The impairment losses are recognised in the profit and loss account.

If in the following period an event which took place after the recognition of impairment determines the reduction of impairment loss, the impairment loss recognised previously is carried forward by adjusting the provision account. The reduction of impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss account.

(vii) Derecognition

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to asset-generated cash flows expire or when the rights to receive the contractual cash flows of the financial asset are transferred, through a transaction where the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred significantly.

d. Tangible assets

(i) Recognition and assessment

The tangible assets recognised as assets are initially evaluated at cost by the Company. The cost of a tangible asset is composed of the purchase price, including the non-recoverable taxes, after the deduction of any price discounts of commercial nature to which we add any cost which can be directly attributed to bringing the asset in the location and in the necessary conditions so that it can be used for the purpose desired by the management, such as: expenses with employees which result directly from the building or purchase of the asset, the arrangement costs of site, initial delivery and handling costs, installation and assembling costs, professional fees.

The tangible assets are initially recognised at production cost if they are earned in own management regime.

The values of tangible assets of the Company as of 30 September 2019 and 01 January 2019 are detailed in Note 13.

The tangible assets are classified by the Company in the following classes of assets of the same nature and with similar uses:

  • Land and land arrangements;
  • Constructions;
  • Technical installations and vehicles;
  • Furniture, office equipment;
  • Tangible assets under execution.

d. Tangible assets (to be continued)

(i) Recognition and evaluation (to be continued)

The lands and constructions are highlighted at reevaluated value, which represents the fair value at reevaluation date less any depreciation accrued later and any accrued impairment losses.

The fair value is based on market price quotations, adjusted, if applicable, so that they reflect the differences related to nature, location or conditions of that asset.

The reevaluations are made by specialised appraisers, members of ANEVAR. The frequency of reevaluations is dictated by the dynamics of markets to which the lands and buildings owned by the Company belong.

The other categories of tangible assets are highlighted at cost less the accrued depreciation and the provision for impairment.

In the case of revaluation, the difference between fair value and historical cost value is presented in the revaluation reserve. If the result of a revaluation is an increase from net book value, then it is treated as follows:

  • as an increase in the revaluation reserve if there was no prior decrease recognized as an expense related to that asset; or
  • as an income to offset the expense previously recognized for that asset.

If the result of a revaluation is a decrease from net book value, then it is treated as follows:

  • as an expense with the full amount of the impairment, when in the revaluation reserve no amount is recorded regarding that asset (revaluation surplus); or
  • as a decrease in the revaluation reserve with the minimum of the value of that reserve and the value of the decrease, and any remaining uncovered difference is recorded as an expense.

(ii) Reclassification in real estate investments

The Company reclassifies property, plant and equipment as real estate investment if and only if there is a change in use, evidenced by:

  • (a) the beginning of the use by the owner for a transfer in the category of real estate investments in the category of real estate used by the owner;
  • (b) starting the improvement process in the prospect of sale, for a transfer in the category of real estate investments in the stock category;
  • (c) the end of use by the owner for a transfer from the category of real estate used by the owner in the category of real estate investments;
  • (d) the start of an operating lease with another party, for a transfer from the stock category to the real estate investment category.

(iii) Subsequent costs

The expenses with maintenance and repairs of tangible assets are recorded by the Company in the global result statement when they appear, and the significant improvements to tangible assets, which increase their value or their life or which significantly increase the capacity to generate economic benefits by them are capitalised.

d. Tangible assets (to be continued)

(iv) Amortization of tangible assets

The depreciation is calculated by using the straight-line depreciation across the useful estimated life of assets.

The estimated lifetimes of the main groups of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Asset Years
Constructions 10 - 50
Technical installations and machinery
Other installations, vehicles, machinery and furniture
2 - 28
5 - 15

Property under construction is not amortized.

Land is not amortized. The land presented in the financial statements has been revalued by the Company in accordance with legal regulations. The information is presented in Note no.11 (i) (revaluation). If the carrying amount of an asset is greater than the amount to be recovered, the asset is impaired to its recoverable amount.

(v) Sale/discarding of tangible assets

The tangible assets which are discarded or sold are eliminated from balance sheet together with accrued depreciation. Any profit or loss resulted from such an operation is included in the current profit and loss account.

(vi) Assets purchased under lease agreements

Assets held as a result of financial leasing are identified as assets of the Company at their fair value at the beginning of the lease term.

e. Intangible assets

(i) Recognition and assessment

The intangible assets which fulfil the recognition criteria from International Financial Reporting Standards are recorded at cost less the accrued depreciation and impairments.

(ii) Subsequent costs

Subsequent expenditure on intangible assets is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits generated by the asset to which it relates. Expenditure that does not meet these criteria is recognized as an expense when incurred.

(iii) Amortization of intangible assets

Amortization is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income based on the linear method over the estimated useful life of the intangible asset. Most of the intangible assets registered by the Company are computer programs. They are linearly amortized over a period of no more than 5 years.

f. Real Estate Investments

The real estate investments are real properties (lands, buildings or parts of a building) owned by the Company for rental or for increase of value or both, and not for:

  • being used in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes; or
  • being sold during the normal course of activity.

Certain properties include a part held to be rented or for the purpose of increasing its value and another part is held for the purpose of production of goods, provision of services or for administrative purposes.

If these parts can be separately sold (or rented separately), they are accounted for separately. If the parts cannot be sold separately, the property is treated as a real estate investment only if the part used for the production of goods, provision of services or for administrative purposes is insignificant.

(i) Recognition

A real estate investment is recognised as asset if and only if:

  • it is likely that a future economic benefit associated with the element enters the Company;
  • the cost of asset can be credibly determined.

(ii) Evaluation

Initial evaluation

A real estate investment is initially evaluated at cost, including the trading costs. The cost of a purchased real estate investment is composed of its purchasing price plus any directly attributed expenses (for example, professional fees for provision of legal services, ownership transfer taxes and other trading costs).

The values of tangible assets of the Company as of 30 September 2019 and 01 January 2019 are detailed in Note 15.

Subsequent evaluation

The accounting policy of the Company regarding the subsequent evaluation of real estate investments is based on fair value model. This policy is evenly applied to all real estate investments. The evaluation of fair value of real estate investments is carried out by appraisers, members of National Association of Authorised Romanian Valuers (ANEVAR). The fair value is based on market price quotations, adjusted, if applicable, so that they reflect the differences related to nature, location or conditions of that asset. These evaluations are regularly revised by the Company management.

The earnings or losses resulted from the change of fair value of real estate investments are recognised in the profit and loss account of the period when they occur.

The fair value of real estate investments reflects the market conditions at balance sheet date.

f. Real estate investments (to be continued)

(iii) Transfers

The transfers to or from real estate investments are made when and only when there is a change in the use of that asset.

For the transfer of a real estate investment evaluated at fair value in tangible assets, the implicit cost of asset for its subsequent accountancy will be its fair value at the change of use date.

(Iv) Impairment

We apply the same accounting policies as for tangible assets.

The book value of a real estate investment is derecognised at lease or when the investment is permanently withdrawn from use and we do not expect future economic benefits from its lease.

The earnings or losses which result from the discarding or sale of a real estate investment are recognised in the profit and loss account when it is discarded or sold.

g. Assets held for sale

The Company will classify a fixed asset (or a group of assets) as held for sale if it is probable that it will generate benefits to the Company as a result of its disposal rather than following its continued use.

For this purpose, the asset (or the group of assets) must be available for immediate sale in its current state, and the sale of the asset must be of high degree of certainty.

In order for the sale of the asset to be highly probable, the appropriate management level must have drawn up a plan for the sale of the asset (or group of assets), and an effective program for identifying the buyer, as well as finalizing the sales plan.

Moreover, the asset (or group of assets) must be able to be sold on an active market at a price that is reasonably related to the fair value. In addition, it expects the sale to qualify for recognition as a " complete sale" within 1 year from the date of classification and the actions required to complete the sales plan reflect that it is a little significant changes to the plan are likely to be required or the plan to be withdrawn.

Assets that meet the criteria for being classified as held for sale are measured at the lowest of the carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.

h. Inventory

Inventory are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

The cost is determined based on the first in - first out method ("FIFO").

The net realizable value is the estimated sale value less the estimated completion costs and the expenses incurred for the sale.

Costs of finished products and semi-finished products include materials, direct labor, other direct costs and overhead costs related to production (based on operating activity). Net realizable value is the estimated sales price in ordinary transactions. Adjustments for stock impairment are recognized for those inventory that are slow, physically or morally worn. Inventories for which it could not be estimated whether in the immediate period they would be consumed or if those inventory represent safety inventory for certain installations are not subject to adjustment.

i. Impairment

The carrying amounts of Company's non-financial assets, other than inventory and receivables on the deferred tax, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any evidence of impairment. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit exceeds the estimated recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the maximum of the amount of use and fair value less costs to sell. In determining the value in use, expected future cash flows are updated to determine the present value, using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and asset specific risks. For impairment testing, assets that cannot be individually tested are grouped into the smallest asset group that generates cash inflows from continuous use and are largely independent of cash inflows generated by other assets or groups of assets ("cashgenerating unit").

Impairment losses are recognized in the individual statement of comprehensive income. Impairment losses recognized in relation to cash-generating units are used first to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the units, if any, and then pro-rata to reduce the carrying amount of other assets within the unit (group of units).

For all fixed assets, except for goodwill, impairment losses recognized in prior periods are measured at each reporting date to determine whether there is evidence that loss has decreased or is no longer present. An impairment loss is restated if there has been any change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is restated only to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed the carrying amount that could have been determined, net of amortization, had no impairment been recognized.

(i) Financial assets (including receivables)

Adjustment for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms.

The establishment of risk adjustments for the non-collection of trade receivables is made by including in the expense the amount of the need for risk adjustments for non-collection of trade receivables related to the invoices in the balance for which there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect the amounts owed to it and as a result of applying the Expected Credit Loss model.

Classification: Mecanica`s intention is to hold the receivables to collect the contractual cash flows. Therefore, they are classified as measured at amortised cost.

Measurement: The Company perfoms and individual and collective assessment for the recoverability of the trade and other receivables.

Individual analysis: The entity peforms indivually analsys of trade and other receivables recoverability based on the litigation status and days past due. For all customers in litigation and days past due over 360 days a risk provision of 100% from the gross value is booked.

Collective analysis: We have analyzed the list of all invoices issued during the years 2014-2018, and also all collections received by the Company during that time period.

We have added (allocated) to each transaction line the additional available details that we will use (such as Country Zone 1-6 of the client, type of customer).

i. Impairment (to be continued)

(i) Financial assets (including receivables) (to be continued)

As per the steps of IFRS 9 guideline for calculation of credit loss allowances for trade receivables with use of provision matrix, we have taken the following 4 steps:

  1. The groups of receivables were divided by categories of shared credit risk characteristics.

We have considered the relevant grouping of customers by geographical area in Romania (7 zones as per the map in worksheet "Romania Zones map". Further, we have grouped customers by their type (i.e. Final Customer, Renter, or Distributor).

Through these groupings, the credit risk characteristics of customers will be more uniform within the determined categories for a more accurate calculation of expected future credit losses.

  1. We have determined the period over which observed historical rate losses are appropriate.

There is no specific guidance in IFRS 9 on how far back the historical data should be evaluated. We have considered a period of the 4 previous years as relevant and reliable for the basis on which to observe the historical rate losses of the Company.

  1. We have determined the historical loss rates.

We have calculated the total yearly credit sales of the Company for each of the analysed years. We have also calculated the collections for the sales of each year, and we have calculated the delay with which these were collected.

We have split the collections in time categories - collected when Not Overdue (without delay), collected with delay of 1-30 days, collected with delay of 31-60 days, collected with delay of 61-90 days, collected with 90+ days delay.

Then, there are amounts remaining as not collected at all from the credit sales of these years - these are the historical credit losses.

We have applied the calculation process to each timeband . The historical loss rate for each timeband reflects the percentage of sales that reached at least the designated timeband that were never collected.

4. FORWARD LOOKING MACRO-ECONOMIC FACTORS TO ADJUST HISTORICAL LOSS RATIOS FOR EXPECTED LOSSES

The Company analysed the impact from GDP up to 2021, taking in consideration 3 scenarios for the evolution: pessimistic , baseline and optimistic.

The Company derecognizes a write-down of receivables previously constituted at the time of recovery wholly or in proportion to the amount recovered.

The determination of the amount of the adjustment for impairment of the trade receivables to be established is based on the estimates made in collaboration with the Law Office and on the basis of the policies mentioned under (i).

i. Impairment (to be continued)

(ii) Non-financial assets

Tangible assets and other long-term assets are reviewed to identify impairment losses whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount can no longer be recovered.

Impairment losses on non-financial assets are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income.

j. Employee benefits

(i) Determined contribution plans

The Company makes payments in the name of own employees to the pension system of the Romanian state, the health insurances and unemployment fund, during the normal course of activity.

All the employees of the Company are members and also have the legal obligation to contribute (by social contributions) to the pension system of the Romanian state (a plan of determined contributions to the State budget). All the contributions are recognised in the profit and loss account of the period when they are made. The Company does not have other supplementary obligations.

The Company is not involved in any independent pension system and therefore, does not have other obligations in this respect. The Company is not involved in any other post-retirement benefits system. The Company does not have the obligation to provide subsequent services to former or current employees.

Also, according to the Collective Labor Agreement, when fulfilling the legal conditions for retirement, respectively for uninterrupted seniority in the Company, employees are entitled to receive a reward.

On 30 September 2019, the Company's management did not assess the present value of future liabilities in respect of these benefits in kind and cash rewards based on an actuarial basis and recorded a provision on these liabilities based on an internal analysis.

(ii) Short-term benefits

The obligations with short-term benefits given to employees are not discounted and are recognised in the global result statement as the related service is provided.

The short-term benefits of employees include the wages and bonuses. The short-term benefits of employees and contributions to social insurances are recognised in the financial statements of the Company when the services are provided. The Company recognises a provision for the amounts that are expected to be paid with title of bonuses in cash on short term if the Company has now a legal or implicit obligation to pay those amounts as result of past services provided by employees and if that obligation can be credibly estimated.

(iii) Benefits for termination of employment contracts

The company grants the following benefits to employees in the event of termination of the employment contract as a result of retirement, as follows:

Employees retiring for old age, disability, partially early or early will receive an end-of-career reward as follows:

  • those with seniority in the Company of over 15 years, two average basic salaries negotiated on the company;

  • those with seniority in the Company between 5 and 15 years, one basic average salary negotiated on the company;

Employees retiring as a result of an accident or an event related to work and who have a seniority in the company of between 0 and 5 years will benefit from a basic salary negotiated on the company.

k. Provisions for risks and expenses

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a legal or implicit obligation as a result of past events, when for the settlement of the obligation an outflow of resources is required, and when a credible estimate can be made in terms of the obligation value.

Provisions for restructuring, litigation, and other provisions for risks and expenses are recognized when the Company has a legal or implicit obligation arising from a previous event, when it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and when a credible estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Restructuring provisions include the direct costs generated by the restructuring, i.e. those that are necessarily generated by the restructuring process and are not related to the continuous development of the company's business.

(i) Guarantees

Provisions for guarantees to customers are estimated by the Company based on the cost of repairs during the warranty period against the value of turnover in the previous financial year.

(ii) Employee benefits

The Company sets up provisions for the benefits of employees granted upon termination of the employment contract with retirement. Determination of the amount of the provision to be set up shall be made taking into account the provisions of the collective labor agreement of the Company valid at the date of provisioning.

(iii) Disputes

The Company sets up provisions for litigation if there is a legal or implicit obligation arising from a litigation in progress. Determining the amount of the provision to be established is based on the estimates made by the law firm.

(iv) Other provisions

The Company makes any other provision when the Company has a legal or implicit obligation arising from a previous event, when it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and when a credible estimate can be made as to the amount of the obligation.

Provisions for future operating losses are not recognized.

l. Revenue recognition

The company recognises revenue from the following major sources:

  • Sale of goods agricultural machineries and equipments;
  • Provision of services
  • Income from rental of real estate investments

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The company recognises revenue when it transfers control of a product or service to a customer.

Consideration payable to a customer includes cash amounts that the company pays, or expects to pay, to the customer. Consideration payable to a customer also includes credit or other items (for example, a coupon or voucher) that can be applied against amounts owed to the entity.

The company accounts for consideration payable to a customer as a reduction of the transaction price and, therefore, of revenue unless the payment to the customer is in exchange for a distinct good or service that the customer transfers to the entity. If the consideration payable to a customer includes a variable amount, the company estimates the transaction price . The commission granted to dealers according with the contract in force represents variable consideration that the company has estimated and recognized in the transaction price at 30 September 2019.

l. Recognition of income (to be continued)

(i) Sale of goods – agricultural machineries and equipments;

The income consists of the amount invoiced for the sale of products without VAT, deduction or reduction. Income obtained by the Company is identified based on the sale of products.

For the sale of agricultural machinery and equipment products to the customers, revenue is recognized when control of the goods has transferred, being when:

  • the goods have been shipped to the customer; following delivery, the customer has full discretion to determine the use of the products and to obtain all the benefits from them;
  • the customer purchases the products directly from the company's retail point; the customer has full discretion to determine the use of the products and to obtain all the benefits from them;
  • the products were sold and the customer accepted them, thus obtaining the ability to determine the use of the products and to obtain all the benefits from them.

The company recognised a receivable as these represents the point in time at which the right to consideration becomes unconditional, as only the passage of time is required before payment is due.

(ii) Provision of services

The provision of services is recognized in the accounting exercise in which the services are provided .

(iii) Income from rental of real estate investments

The income from leases is recognized in the accounting exercise in which these are provided.

m. Governmental subsidies

The subsidies from the government for the procurement of assets are recognized as deferred income and is allocated as a systematic and ration income the entire life of the asset.

n. Suppliers and similar accounts

Debts to suppliers and other debts, registered initially as fair value and then assessed using the method of effective interest rate, include the counter-value of the invoices issued by suppliers of products, performed works and provided services.

o. Income and expenses from interests

Incomes and expenses on interests are recognized in the statement of the global result through the method of effective interest. The effective interest rate represents the rate which discounts exactly the payments and receipts in cash foreseen in the future for the expected life of asset or financial liability (or where applicable, for a shorter time) at the book value of asset or financial liability.

p. Earnings and losses from exchage rate differences

The transactions in foreign currency are recorded in the functional currency (leu) by converting the amount into foreign currency at the official exchange rate communicated by the National Bank of Romania, valid on transaction date.

At reporting date, the monetary elements expressed in foreign currency are converted by using the closing exchange rate.

The exchange rate differences which appear on the occasion of deduction of monetary elements or conversion of monetary elements at different exchange rates from those at which they were converted at initial recognition (during the period) or in the previous financial statements are recognised as loss or earning in the profit and loss account in the period when they occur.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

q. Contingents

Contingent debts are not recognized in the enclosed financial statements. These are presented if there exists the possibility of an outcome as resources that represent possible economic benefits, but not probable ones, and/or the value may be estimated in a credible way. A contingent asset is not recognized in the enclosed financial statements, but it is presented when an entry of economic benefits is probable.

r. Corporate tax

The profit tax on 30 September 2019 consists of the current tax and deferred tax.

The current tax represents the tax that is to be paid or received for the taxable income or loss achieved during the year, using taxation percentages adopted or largely adopted on the reporting date, as well as any adjustment to the payment obligations of the profit tax associated to the previous years. The current tax to be paid includes also any fiscal receivable that arises from declaring dividends.

Deferred tax is recognized considering the temporary differences between the accounting value of the assets and debts used with the purpose of the financial reporting and the fiscal base used for the calculation of the tax. Deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences:

  • initial recognition of the assets or debts arised in a transaction that is not a combination of undertaking and which do not affect the accounting or fiscal profit or loss;
  • Differences between the investments in jointly controlled branches or entities, to the extent in which is probable that these are not to be reassessed in the future; and
  • Taxable temporary differences resulted from the initial recognition of the trade fund.

Receivables and debts with deferred tax are compensated only if there exists the legal right to compensate debts and receivables with the current tax, and if these refer to the taxes asked by the same fiscal authority to the same entity, or a different taxable entity, but which intends to conclude a convention on the receivables and debts with the current tax on a net base or whose assets and debts from taxation are to be achieved simultaneously.

A receivable on the deferred tax is recognized for not-used fiscal losses, fiscal credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent in which the achievement of taxable profits is probable, that will be available in the future and that will be used. Receivables on deferred tax are reviewed at each reporting date and are diminished to the extent in which it is not probable that a fiscal benefit will be achieved. The effect of the changes of fiscal rates on the deferred tax is recognized in the Statement of the global results, except the case in which it refers to the positions previously recognized directly in the own equities.

Profit tax is recognized in the financial statement of the global result or in other elements of the global result if the tax is associated to capital elements.

Current tax is the tax paid associated to the profit achieved in the current period, determined based on percentages applied in the date of the reporting and all the adjustments associated to the previous periods.

The current rate of the profit tax in Romania is of 16%.

The deferred tax is calculated based on the taxation percentages that are to be applied to the temporary differences when resuming them, based on the legislation in force at the reporting date.

s. RESULT PER SHARE

The Company presents the result per basic share for ordinary shares. The result per basic share is determined by dividing the profit or loss attributed to the ordinary shareholders of the Company by the number of ordinary shares related to reporting period.

t. Share Capital

Ordinary shares are classified as part of equity. The Company recognizes the changes in the share capital in the conditions stipulated by the legislation in force and only after their approval by the General Meeting of Shareholders and registration with the Trade Register. Additional costs attributable directly to the issue of shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of tax effects.

u. Dividends

Dividends are treated as a distribution of profit during the period when they were declared and approved by the General Meeting of Shareholders.

v. Prescribed dividends

The dividend to be paid not collected within 3 years from declaration date are prescribed according to the law. The prescribed dividends represent transactions with shareholders and are recognised in equity, in the carried-forward result.

w. Principle of business continuity

The FINANCIAL STATEMENTS were drafted based on the principle of business continuity that presumes that the Company is going to continue its activity in a normal way in a foreseeable future, without entering into the impossibility to continue its activity and without its significant reduction. In order to assess the applicability of the presumption, the management analyzes the presumptions regarding the future cash entries. Based on these analyses, the management believes that the Company can continue its activity in the foreseeable future and thus, the application of the principle of business continuity in preparation the financial statements is justified.

x. Subsidiaries and associated entities

Subsidiaries are entities under the control of the Company. Control exists when, inter alia, the Company has the power to influence directly or indirectly the financial and operational policies of an entity to obtain benefits from its activity. At the evaluation of control we take into account the potential or convertible voting rights which are exercised at that time.

The associated entities are those companies in which the Company can exert a significant influence, but not control over the financial and operational policies.

The Company held at 30 September 2019 participation interests of 24.28% in Transport Ceahlau SRL. They are not consolidated because the size criteria according to which the consolidation obligation is established according to the laws in force are not fulfilled.

The Company identified the following affiliated parties:

SIF Moldova Parent company NEW CARPATHIAN FUND Significant shareholder Transport Ceahlau SRL Affiliated company

y. Reporting on segments

A segment is part of the Company that involves in activity segments that may obtain incomes and register expenses (including incomes and expenses corresponding to transactions with other parties of the same entity), whose operation results are followed regularly by the management of the Company in order to make decisions regarding the resources that are to be allocated to the segment and to evaluate its performances and for which distinctive financial information is available. The company does not detain geographical segments or of significant activity according to IFRS 8 "Operational segments" and does not have a management and internal reporting structure divided on segments.

4. DETERMINATION OF THE FAIR VALUE

Certain accounting policies of the Company and requirements for the presentation of the information require the determination of the fair value both for the financial assets and debts as well a for the non-financial ones. Fair values were determined with the purpose of the assessment and/or presentation of information based on the methods below described. When appropriate, additional information on the hypotheses used in determining the fair value are presented in the notes specific for that certain asset or debt.

The fair value represents the prices that would be received following the sale of an asset or the price that would be paid to transfer a debt by a normal transaction between the participants at the market, at the date of the assessment, regardless if this price is observable or estimated used a direct assessment technique. In the estimation of the fair value of an asset or a debt, the Company takes into consideration the characteristics of the asset or debt that the participants at the market would take into consideration for the determination of the price of the asset or the debt, at the date of the assessment. The fair value with purposes of assessment and/or presentation in the INDIVIDUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS is determined on such a base, except for the assessments that are similar to the fair value, but do not represent the fair value, such as the net achievable value in IAS 2 or the use value in IAS 36.

Additionally, for purposes of financial reporting, the assessments at fair value are classified in Level 1, 2 or 3. depending on the degree in which the information necessary for the determination of the fair value are observable and the importance of this information for the Company, as follows:

  • Level 1 Information listed prices (unadjusted), on active markets, for assets and debts identical with those that the company assesses;
  • Level 2 Information information, other than the prices listed included in Level 1, that are observable for the assessed asset or debt, directly or indirectly; and
  • Level 3 Information information unobservable for the asset or debt.
