These amendments: (a) clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities, with a new exception for some financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system; (b) clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest criterion; c) add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some financial instruments with features linked to the achievement of environment, social and governance targets); and (d) update the disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income. The Group and the Company are currently assessing the impact of the amendments on their financial statements. It is expected that derecognition exception for financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system would be relevant for most entities, but are not expecting that impact would be material, as in practice the same approach is mostly applied already in Lithuania.
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 once adopted by the EU)
IFRS 18 introduces new requirements for presentation within the statement of profit or loss, including specified totals and subtotals. Furthermore, entities are required to classify all income and expenses within the statement of profit or loss into one of five categories: operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations, whereof the first three are new. It also requires disclosure of newly defined management-defined performance measures, subtotals of income and expenses, and includes new requirements for aggregation and disaggregation of financial information based on the identified 'roles' of the primary financial statements and the notes. In addition, narrow-scope amendments have been made to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows, which include changing the starting point for determining cash flows from operations under the indirect method, from 'profit or loss' to 'operating profit or loss' and removing the optionality around classification of cash flows from dividends and interest. The Group and the Company is currently working to identify all impacts the amendments will have on the primary financial statements and notes to the financial statements.
Other amendments to existing standards and new standards, which are not yet adopted by the EU, are not relevant to the Group and the Company.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.
The financial statements are prepared in euro (EUR), which is local currency of the Republic of Lithuania, and presented in EUR thousand. Euro is also the local currency of the Republic of Latvia. Euro is the Company's and the Group's functional and presentation currency. The exchange rates in relation to other currencies are set daily by the European Central Bank and the Bank of Lithuania. As these financial statements are presented in EUR thousand, individual amounts were rounded. Due to the rounding, totals in the tables may not add up.
The Group applies the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree, and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the recognised amounts of acquiree's identifiable net assets.
When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances, and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date.
Where the acquisition involves a group of assets and liabilities, the Company identify and recognise the individual assets acquired and liabilities. The cost of the transaction is allocated to the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, based on their relative fair values at the date of purchase. No goodwill arises on the transaction.
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, excluding the costs of day to day servicing, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 3 to 6 years.
The asset residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end to ensure that they are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items in property, plant, and equipment.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of comprehensive income within "other income" in the year the asset is derecognised.
Properties that are held for long-term rental yields and for capital appreciation are classified as investment properties. Where the Group and the Company owns the buildings, but not the land on which they are built, land is leased from the municipality under operating lease. Land held under operating leases is classified and accounted for by the Group and the Company as investment property when the rest of the definition of investment property is met.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are carried at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the reporting date. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in profit or loss in the year in which they arise. The fair value of investment property is determined annually by qualified independent valuers (Note 11).
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset's carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group and the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When part of an investment property is replaced, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.
Investment properties are derecognised when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gains or losses on the retirement or disposal of an investment property are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within "Net gains (losses) from fair value adjustments on investment property" in the year of retirement or disposal.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The business model of the Company is to manage investment into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries as one portfolio and evaluate their performance on a combined fair value basis. On this basis information on portfolio is provided to the Management Company and the Investment Committee. Therefore, the portfolio is neither held to collect contractual cash flows nor held both to collect contractual cash flows and to sell financial assets. Consequently, such portfolio of financial assets is measured at fair value through profit or loss. If the Company grants short-term loans to subsidiaries for the purpose not related with investment activities they are classified as financial assets measured at amortised cost, because they are solely payments of principal and interest and are held to collect contractual cash flows.
At initial recognition, the Group and the Company measures portfolio of investment into subsidiaries at its fair value. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed through profit or loss.
If the fair value of the financial asset at initial recognition differs from the transaction price, it is recognised at fair value and '1 day gain' is recognised only if that fair value is evidenced by a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or based on a valuation technique that uses only data from observable markets. In all other cases the difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price is deferred. For loans granted measured at fair value through profit or loss this difference is recognised using the straight-line method over the estimated maturity of financial asset.
Financial assets within the scope of IFRS 9 are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (either through other comprehensive income or through profit or loss) or financial assets measured at amortised cost. The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
As the business model for the Group's and the Company's other financial assets (except financial assets described in Note 2.7) is held to collect contractual cash flows and they are solely payments of principal and interest, other financial assets are measured at amortised cost. They comprised short-term loans granted, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents. The Group and the Company reclassifies debt instruments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
At initial recognition, the Group and the Company measures financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is calculated using the effective interest rate method and presented as "other income" in the statement of comprehensive income. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss. Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of comprehensive income.
The Group and the Company assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
Cash and cash equivalents are considered to be low credit risk at the reporting date (Stage 1) as they have a low risk of default and the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term. Therefore, a three-stage model for impairment of financial assets other than trade receivables is not relevant to the Group and the Company.
The financial assets are considered as credit-impaired, if objective evidence of impairment exist at the reporting date. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation.
Financial assets are written off, in whole or in part, when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, among others, the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor.
For finance lease receivables, trade and other receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. Trade receivables are classified either to Stage 2 or Stage 3:
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
Trade receivables are mostly covered within one month after year-end or they are identified as individually impaired. Therefore, for Stage 2 trade receivables the Expected Credit loss (ECL) would be calculated and recognised if a material amount is determined for potential impairment based on the settlement of trade receivables after reporting date, which are not individually impaired
Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position and for purpose of the cash flow statement comprise cash at banks and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.
The Management Fee is remuneration paid to the Management Company for management of the assets of the Company, which is payable for each quarter of a calendar year and is 0.375% of the quarterly weighted average capitalisation of the Company, calculated according to the Articles of Association. From 1 January 2018 the rate of the Management Fee was changed to 0.25% of the quarterly weighted average capitalisation of the Company.
The quarterly payable Management Fee is recorded as financial liability and is accounted for at amortised cost.
The Performance Fee depends on the return earned by the Company, which is calculated for the whole Company rather than for an individual shareholder and is based on internal rate of return. The Performance Fee amounts to 20% of return in excess of the annual internal rate of return of 8% (a high water-mark principle is applied). The Performance Fee is paid to the Management Company on a quarterly basis if both conditions are met - the internal rate of return and the stock price growth (including dividends) exceed 8% annually.
The Performance Fee is accounted as a provision on a quarterly basis until the conditions, as described above, for the payment of the Performance Fee are satisfied, when payable part of the Performance Fee is recorded as financial liability and is further accounted for at amortised cost.
The first period for the calculation of the Performance Fee started from 30 November 2016 according to the Articles of Association of the Company, where initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return is net assets value of the Company as at 30 November 2016 (it is amounted to the equity of the Group as at 30 November 2016). If, after that date, the capitalisation of the Company (market value of the issued shares of the Company) is more than net assets value of the Company and internal rate of return calculated on the basis of net assets value is more than 8%, then payable Performance Fee is calculated based on net assets value of the Company. If the capitalisation of the Company is less than net assets value of the Company and internal rate of return calculated on the basis of capitalisation is more than 8%, then payable Performance Fee is calculated based on the capitalisation of the Company. After the Performance Fee becomes payable, the new period for calculating of the Performance Fee starts, where initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return is the capitalisation of the Company or net asset value of the Company as at the end of previous period - depends on which based on these amounts payable part of the Performance Fee is calculated.
More detailed requirements are set out in the Articles of Association of the Company.
The Group and the Company recognises a financial liability when it first becomes a party to the contractual rights and obligations in the contract.
All financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value, minus (in the case of a financial liability that is not at fair value through profit or loss) transaction costs that are directly attributable to issuing the financial liability. Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group and the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all attached conditions. The Group and the Company received subsidies for reconstruction of heritage investment property. The grant relates to an asset (investment property) is recognised by deducting the grant in arriving at the carrying amount of the asset. In the movement of investment property grant reduced subsequent expenditures.
The purchase of assets and the receipt of related grants are netted and not disclosed as separately in the investment property notes.
The expense relating to any provision is presented in the profit or loss. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
A provision for onerous lease contracts is recognised when the expected benefits to be derived by the Group and the Company from a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract.
The Company is obliged to pay the Performance Fee to the Management Company (Note 2.11). There is an obligation to pay the Performance Fee, which becomes payable only in the event of outperformance of the benchmark when both conditions are met as described in Note 2.11 and the Company's Articles of Association.
As services are provided over time, the obligating past event arises and a provision for the Company's management services needs to be recognised. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation.
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are recognised in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the retained earnings. Where any group company purchases the company's equity share capital (treasury shares), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to the company's equity holders until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such shares are subsequently reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the company's equity holders.
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the Group and the Company as the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments, including pre-payments, received under operating leases (net of any incentives granted to the lessee) are credited to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
Any changes in the scope or the consideration for a lease, that was not part of the original terms and conditions of the lease, for example, rent concessions given which were not contemplated as part of the original terms and conditions of the lease, are accounted for as lease modifications.
The Group and the Company accounts for a modification to an operating lease as a new lease from the effective date of the modification, recognising the remaining lease payments, including any amounts recorded as prepaid or accrued lease payments at the time of the modification, as income on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term. Property leased out under operating leases is included in investment property in the statement of financial position (Note 11). See Note 2.17 for the recognition of rental income.
Leases where the Group and/or the Company are lessees, are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Company and the Group.
The right-of-use asset is measured at its cost which includes the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date (less any lease incentives received), any initial direct costs incurred by the Group and/or the Company. The lease liabilities are measured at the net present value of the lease payments.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Company and the Group, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security, and conditions.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The Company and the Group are exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate, which are not included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate take effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
The Group and the Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Operating lease income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the underlying asset and recognised as expense over the lease term on the same basis as lease income. The Group and the Company elected to recognise lease income for variable payment that depends on an index or a rate in the periods in which changes of index or rate occur. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as lease income in the periods in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs. When the Group and the Company provides incentives to its tenants, the cost of the incentives is recognised over the lease term, on a straight-line basis, as a reduction of lease income.
Revenue from utilities and other services is recognised in the accounting period in which control of the services are passed to the customer, which is when the service is rendered.
Revenue is measured at the transaction price agreed under the contract. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of variable consideration and payments to customers, which are not for distinct services, this consideration may include discounts, trade allowances, rebates.
A receivable is recognised when services are provided as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due.
From 1 January 2018 all income of Collective Investment Undertakings is not subject to taxation.
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
From 1 January 2018 according to the new Corporate Income Tax Act of Latvia the annual profit is not taxed. Corporate income tax would be paid on distributed profit, including conditional distributed profit as for example: expenditure not related to economic activities, some loans granted to related parties, some provisions for doubtful debts. The tax rate on (net) distributed profit would be 20/80.
The preparation of financial statements requires management of the Group and the Company to make judgements and estimates that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of reporting period. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in the future periods.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
In the process of applying the accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which had the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in these financial statements:
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The management has concluded that the Group acts as a principal in relation to utility and other services. Although the most of services rendered to the tenants is performed by other parties, the Group has a right to a service to be performed by the other party, which gives the Group the ability to direct that party to provide the service to the customer on the entity's behalf. From tenant perspective the Group combines the services provided by other parties in providing the specified service to them. According to the management the Group is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide services and has discretion in establishing the price for the services.
Purchases of investment property are generally treated as acquisitions of assets. According to the management, there are no business combinations if the real estate object has individual tenants, the Company does not acquire other assets or rights in addition to the real estate object and does not hire former employees. The Company does not acquire the business process management know-how of a real estate object but manages all acquired objects centrally. The same premise is applicable for acquisition of investment property through entity acquisition.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Group and the Company base its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Group and the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
The significant areas of estimation used in the preparation of these financial statements are discussed below.
Fair value of investment properties was based either on the market approach by reference to sales in the market of comparable properties or the income approach by reference to rentals obtained from the subject property or similar properties. Market approach refers to the prices of the analogue's transactions in the market. These values are adjusted for differences in key attributes such as property size, location. Discounted cash flow projections in the income approach are based on estimates of future cash flows, supported by the terms of any existing lease and other contracts and by external evidence such as current (at the date of the statement of financial position) market rents for similar properties in the same location and condition, and using discount rates that reflect current market assessments of the uncertainty in the amount and timing of the cash flows. The future rental rates were estimated depending on the actual location, type, and quality of the properties, and taking into account market data and projections at the valuation date.
The Company's investment properties located in Lithuania have to be valued twice a year by qualified independent valuer in accordance with the Lithuanian Law on Collective Investment Undertakings. In the process of valuation, the Management has discussions with the qualified independent valuer about significant unobservable inputs.
The fair value of the investment properties of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2024 was EUR 42,567 thousand and EUR 37,905 thousand, respectively (as at 31 December 2023 – EUR 42,058 thousand and EUR 27,553 thousand, respectively) (described in more details in Note 11).
The fair values of investments into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries are determined by using valuation techniques, primarily discounted cash flows. The fair value of these investments was measured at the fair value of their net assets, including loans granted by the Company. The main assets of subsidiaries are investment properties, which are measured at fair value using income or market approach. The main liabilities of subsidiaries are borrowings from external financial institutions, which are measured using income approach, such as a present value technique. The models used to determine fair values are periodically reviewed and compared against historical results to ensure their reliability.
The fair value of the investments in subsidiaries as at 31 December 2024 was EUR 5,268 thousand (as at 31 December 2023 – EUR 11,319 thousand) (described in more details in Note 5).
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The amount of provision for the Performance Fee represents the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The provision is calculated on the basis of the net assets value of the Company, which equals to the equity of the Company. The Performance Fee would become payable only if the stock price growth (including dividends) exceeded 8% annually. As described in Note 2.11, the payable Performance Fee could be based on net assets value or on the capitalisation of the Company. The Company cannot control stock price of the Company shares, therefore the timing and the amount of the Performance Fee payable in future are uncertain.
As at 31 December 2024 provision was calculated as an amount equal to 20% of return in excess of the annual internal rate of return of 8% for period from 30 June 2021 till 31 December 2024. For this period internal rate of return based on net assets value of the Company amounted to 13.99%. Initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return for this period was capitalisation of the Company as at 30 June 2021.
As at 31 December 2023 provision was calculated as an amount equal to 20% of return in excess of the annual internal rate of return of 8% for period from 30 June 2021 till 31 December 2023. For this period internal rate of return based on net assets value of the Company amounted to 14.49%. Initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return for this period was capitalisation of the Company as at 30 June 2021.
As at 31 December 2024 the Company recognised non-current provision for the Performance Fee of EUR 961 thousand (as at 31 December 2023 - EUR 684 thousand) (Note 7).
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The risk management function within the Group is carried out in respect of financial risks, operational risks, and legal risks. On an overall Group level strategical risk management was executed by the Management Company. Operational risk management is carried out at each entity level by directors. The primary objectives of the financial risk management function are to establish risk limits and then ensure that exposure to risks stays within these limits. The operational and legal risk management functions are intended to ensure proper functioning of internal policies and procedures to minimise operational and legal risks.
The Group's and the Company's principal financial liabilities comprise borrowings, trade, and other payables. The main purpose of the borrowings is to raise finance for the Group's and the Company's operations. The Group and the Company have various financial assets such as trade and other receivables, loans granted and cash which arise directly from its operations. The Company and the Group have not used any derivative instruments so far, as management considered that there is no necessity for them.
The main risks arising from the financial instruments are market risk (including currency risk, cash flow and fair value interest rate risk and price risk), liquidity risk and credit risk. The risks are identified and disclosed below.
Credit risk is the risk one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, deposits, credit exposures to outstanding trade receivables and loans granted. The Group/Company seeks to ensure that rental contracts are entered into only with lessees with an appropriate credit history, from some of lessees advance lease payments are required.
The maximum exposure to credit risk and impairment of trade and other receivables is disclosed in Note 13. The maximum exposure to credit risk for loans granted to subsidiaries measured at fair value through profit or loss are their carrying amounts (Note 5). In Note 13 is also disclosed credit quality of trade receivable. There are no transactions of the Group or the Company that occur outside Lithuania and Latvia.
As at 31 December 2024 the Group faced a significant concentration of credit risk associated to one tenant. The balance of trade receivable from this tenant comprised approximately 12% of the Group's trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2024. Other tenants did not pose the Group to a significant concentration of credit risk.
As at 31 December 2024 the Company faced a significant concentration of credit risk related to one customers. The balance of trade receivables from this customers comprised approximately 29% of the Company's trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2024. As of the reporting date, these receivables were fully paid.
As at 31 December 2023 the Group faced a significant concentration of credit risk associated to one tenant. The balance of trade receivable from this tenant comprised approximately 14% of the Group's trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2023. Other tenants did not pose the Group to a significant concentration of credit risk.
In addition, due to one – off agreement, the Group had a significant concentration of credit risk amounting to 35% of the Group's trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2023. As of the reporting date, this receivable was fully paid.
As at 31 December 2023 the Company faced a significant concentration of credit risk related to two customers (one being a related party and the other a third party). The balance of trade receivables from these customers comprised approximately 72% (related party) and 14% (third party) of the Company's trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2023. The concentration of credit risk for the company arose from one - off agreements. As of the reporting date, these receivables were fully paid.
The significant concentration of credit risk for both the Group and the Company related a to one – off agreement with third party is associated with the 23 April 2015 share sales agreement. The sale of the shares was completed on 19 August 2015, and the Company received the full amount for the shares. According to the agreement, there was also a right to receive contingent consideration, which was determined as 50 percent of the deferred tax assets value arising from the entity's tax losses accumulated until the end of 2014. The Company has not recognised this amount as income prior to these financial statements because, according to the management, the sold entity was not expected to earn taxable profit in the foreseeable future, and the buyer would pay only for used tax losses. During 2023, the Company agreed with the buyer on the receivable amount due to 23 April 2015 share sales agreement and recognised EUR 152 thousand as other income.
With respect to credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents and deposits the Group's and the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.
According to the European deposit insurance scheme, cash, cash equivalents and deposits of up to EUR 100 thousand of every legal entity in each bank are covered with insurance. All the Group's balance of cash and cash equivalents are covered with the insurance, except for the Company's cash and cash equivalents, because the Company is a collective investment undertaking. The insured amounts of cash placed on AS "SEB banka" accounts were exceeded by EUR 484 thousand, insured amounts of cash placed on AB Šiaulių bankas accounts were exceeded by EUR 116 thousand and at OP Bank – EUR 587 thousand as at 31 December 2024 (by EUR 513 thousand, by EUR 136 thousand, and nil respectively, as at 31 December 2023).
All cash balances have a low credit risk at the reporting date and the impairment loss determined on 12-month expected credit losses is resulted in an immaterial amount.
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)
The credit quality of cash and cash equivalents can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings of the banks:
| Group | Company | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Moody's short-term ratings | 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 |

The Group's and the Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the debt obligations with floating interest rates.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in floating interest rates (EURIBOR), with all other variables held constant, of the Group's and the Company's profit before tax (through the impact on floating rate borrowings). There is no impact on the Group's and the Company's equity other than current year profit impact.

As at 31 December 2024 the Group and the Company had three and three loans respectively with floating interest rates (6 month EURIBOR). As at 31 December 2023 the Group and the Company had four and two loans respectively with floating interest rates (6 month EURIBOR).
The Group and the Company holds assets and liabilities denominated only in the Euro, which is functional and presentation currency of the Group. Therefore, the Group and the Company are not exposed to foreign exchange risk.
The Group's and the Company's policy is to maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents or have available funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet their commitments at a given date in accordance with strategic plans. The liquidity risk of the Group's operation in Lithuania and the Company is controlled on an overall Group level. The liquidity risk of the Group's operation in Latvia is controlled on an entity level. The Group's and the Company's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank loans. The liquidity risk management is divided into long-term and short-term risk management.
The aim of the short-term liquidity management is to meet daily needs for funds. Short-term liquidity for the Group and the Company is controlled through monthly monitoring of the liquidity status and needs of funds.
Long-term liquidity risk is managed by analysing the predicted future cash flows taking into account the possible financing sources. Before approving the new investment projects the Group and the Company evaluate the possibilities to attract needed funds.
The Group's liquidity ratio (total current assets / total current liabilities) as at 31 December 2024 and 2023 was approximately 1.00 and 0.9, respectively. The Company's liquidity ratio as at 31 December 2024 and 2023 was approximately 0.39 and 0.87.
As at 31 December 2024 the current assets were lower than current liabilities by EUR 10 thousand in the Group and EUR 1,462 thousand lower in the Company. The management of the Group and the Company forecasted the cash flows of the Group and the Company for 2025 and the forecast indicates that the Group and the Company will have sufficient funds to cover liabilities, which fall due in 2025.

The primary objective of the capital management is to ensure that the Group and the Company maintain a strong credit health and healthy capital ratios in order to support their business and maximise shareholder value. The Company's management supervises the investments so that they are in compliance with requirements applied to the capital, specified in the appropriate legal acts, as well as provide the Group's management with necessary information.
The Group's and the Company's capital comprises share capital, share premium, reserves and retained earnings.
The Group and the Company manage their capital structure and make adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions and specific risks of their activity. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares.
The Company is obliged to keep its equity ratio at not less than 50 % of its share capital, as imposed by the Law on Companies of Republic of Lithuania. The Company and the Group complied with this requirement as at 31 December 2024 and 2023, except for one subsidiary in 2024 and two subsidiaries in 2023. There are no plans yet to rectify the situation in Lithuania. Pursuant to the Latvian Commercial Law the authorised share capital of a private limited liability company must be not less than EUR 2,800. As of 31 December 2024 and 2023, all Latvian subsidiaries complied with this requirement.
Starting from 2022 the Company has the right to pay dividends without bank consent if the ratio of EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) plus inflows and outflows from subsidiaries (dividends or repayment of granted loan and new granted loans) plus change for provision for the Performance Fee minus payable Performance Fee divided by the sum of debt service costs (interest and principal repayments) and dividends would be higher than 1.1. In addition, on 9 April 2020 the Ordinary General Meeting of the Company changed dividend payment policy by setting the minimum amount of dividends at EUR 0.09, if the legal and contractual requirements do not restrict the payment of dividends.

Assets carried at fair value
The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
The following table provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of the Group's and the Company's assets measured at fair value in the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2024.
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total balance | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assets of the Group | ||||
| Investment properties (Note 11) | - | 4,663 | 37,904 | 42,567 |
| Assets of the Company | ||||
| Investment properties (Note 11) | - | - | 37,905 | 37,905 |
| Investment into subsidiaries (Note 5) | - | - | 5,268 | 5,268 |
There were no transfers of assets between the Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy during 2024. However, there was a reallocation between hierarchy levels 2 and 3. EUR 4,452 thousand of assets were reclassified from hierarchy level 2 to 3 by classifying these assets as investment property held for future redevelopment. Correspondingly, EUR 1,700 thousand of assets have been reclassified from properties leased out by the entity to investment property held for future redevelopment. By the time these financial statements were issued, part of the redevelopment of these assets had been completed and transferred back to investment property under lease. The above reclassifications are due to the commencement of the reconstruction works of the building at Vilniaus g. 37 and the development potential of the building at Palangos str. 4/Vilniaus str. 33.
The following table provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of the Group's and the Company's assets measured at fair value in the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2023.
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total balance | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assets of the Group | ||||
| Investment properties (Note 11) | - | 9,489 | 32,569 | 42,058 |
| Assets of the Company | ||||
| Investment properties (Note 11) | - | 4,452 | 23,101 | 27,553 |
| Investment into subsidiaries (Note 5) | - | - | 11,319 | 11,319 |
There were no transfers of assets between the Level 1 and Level 2 and between Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during 2023.
There were no liabilities measured at fair value in the Group's and the Company's statements of financial position.
Financial instruments that are not carried at fair value
The Group's and the Company's principal financial instruments that are not carried at fair value in the statement of financial position are cash and cash equivalents, deposits, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, non-current and current borrowings, provision for onerous contract.
The carrying amount of the cash and cash equivalents, deposits, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2024 and 2023 approximated their fair value because they are short-term and the impact of discounting is immaterial.
The carrying amount of borrowings of the Group and the Company and provision for onerous contract as at 31 December 2024 and 2023 approximated their fair value. Bank borrowings have floating interest rate and were renegotiated recently, therefore their interest rate represents the current market rate. The interest rates of borrowings from related party are reviewed at the end of each financial year and adjusted in line with market rates changes, therefore it was concluded that their fair value approximates carrying amount. The fair values of non-current borrowings are based on discounted cash flows using a current interest rate. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to use of unobservable inputs, including own credit risk.

Investments into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries are measured at fair value through profit or loss in the Company's stand-alone financial statements in 2024 and 2023. It is Level 3 fair value measurement. The fair value of investments is measured at the fair value of their net assets including loans granted by the Company. The main assets of dormant entities are cash. The main assets of active subsidiaries are investment properties, which are measured at fair value using the income approach. The main liabilities of subsidiaries are borrowings from external financial institutions, which are measured using an income approach, such as a present value technique.
The split of carrying amounts of the investment into subsidiaries by legal components is as follows:
| 2024 | 2023 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Shares | 322 | 2,726 | |
| Loans granted | 4,946 | 8,593 | |
| 5,268 | 11,319 | ||
| Key inputs to valuation on subsidiaries as at 31 December 2023: | |||
| Significant unobservable inputs | Value of input or range, 2023 | ||
| Discount rate (%) | 9.5 - 10.5 | ||
| Capitalisation rate for terminal value (%) | 7.5 - 9 | ||
| Vacancy rate (%) | 0 – 25 | ||
| Increase of rents per year (%) | 2-3 | ||
| Inflation (%) | 2-3 | ||
| Office premises in city centre - Rent price EUR per sq. m. | |||
| (without VAT) | 3.5-26 |
The sensitivity analysis of fair value of subsidiaries as at 31 December 2023 is as follows:
| Reasonable possible shift +/- (%) | Increase of estimates | Decrease of estimates | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Change in Increase of rents per year and inflation by 100 bps | 101 | (101) | |
| Change in future rental rates by 10 % | 500 | (500) | |
| Change in expected vacancy rates by 20% | (129) | 128 | |
| Change in discount and capitalization rate by 50 bps | (600) | 634 |
As at 31 December 2024 the Company did not have any subsidiaries that are measured using the discounted cash flow method and therefore no sensitivity analysis is performed.

Management of the Company has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the Investment Committee of the Management Company that are used to make strategic decisions. The Investment Committee analyses performance of the Group on property-by-property basis of owned premises. Performance is evaluated based on net operating income. Net operating income is calculated by deducting from revenue premises rent costs (excluding provision for onerous contract), utilities expenses, repair and maintenance expenses, property management and brokerage costs, taxes on property and insurance costs. Segment assets and liabilities are not reported to the Investment Committee.

The Group's policy is to recognise transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer.
The fair value represents the price that would be received selling an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, in compliance with the International Valuation Standards set out by the International Valuation Standards Committee. An investment property's fair value was based either on the market approach by reference to sales in the market of comparable properties or the income approach by reference to rentals obtained from the subject property or similar properties. Market approach refers to the prices of the analogue's transactions in the market. These values are adjusted for differences in key attributes such as property size, location, and quality of interior fittings. The most significant input into this valuation approach is price per square metre.
Income approach is based on the assumption that defined correlation between net activity future income and fair value of the objects exists. For properties leased out by the entity main inputs include:
Investment properties held for future redevelopment were estimated taking into account the following estimates (in addition to the inputs noted above):

Last year has been extremely successful for the Company in achieving long-term operational results.
INVL Baltic Real Estate's consolidated net operating income from its own properties in 2024 amounted to 2.8 million euros or 14 per cent more than in 2023 (2.4 million euros). INVL Baltic Real Estate's consolidated income in 2024 comprised 4 million euros or 10 per cent more than in 2023 (3.6 million euros), the consolidated rental income from own property increased by 11 per cent to 2.5 million euros.
The Group's net profit in 2024 amounted to EUR 2.7 million, or 3.9 times more than in 2023. The value of assets managed increased by EUR 0.5 million over 2024, comprising EUR 42.6 million at the end of the year. The value of equity at the end of the year reached 25.25 million euros. The equity value per share was 3.17 euros and increased by 11.6 per cent (after assessing the dividends paid in 2024) during the year.
Last year was a significant year for the development of Vilniaus g. 37 object – during the past year we have completed most of the arrangement and reconstruction works on the site, which we expect to be fully completed in early 2025. Most of the premises on the site have been rented.
At the end of the year, we successfully completed the sale of part of our Latvian assets, with a positive impact on INVL Baltic Real Estate's results amounting to EUR 1.7 million.
We also continued the design work for the redevelopment of the building of Pramogų Bankas, obtaining a building permit at the end of August to carry out major renovation works on the building. We are continuing to work with the design team on the redesign and refurbishment of the site.
We are delighted that Talent Garden Vilnius has managed to maintain excellent occupancy levels and steadily improve its financial performance for the fifth consecutive year. Thanks to the successful operation of Talent Garden Vilnius and other lease agreements signed in previous periods, in 2024, the net rental income of premises on Palangos g. 4 / Vilniaus g. 33, compared to 2023, increased by 13 per cent and amounted to 1.7 million euros. Together with the design company Viltekta, we have continued the design work for the planned reconstruction of the site, which is moving rapidly towards completion.
In 2024, the premises managed by INVL Baltic Real Estate were characterised by a high occupancy rate and improving operating results. We are glad that our customers continue to remain loyal and trust INVL Baltic Real Estate as a reliable and long-term partner. In the coming years, we will continue to meet the expectations of our customers and increase the value for investors.
In 2024, the Vilnius office market will be supplemented by about 40 thousand sq. m. of new commercial spaces. The Teltonika, Vestum, Sports 16/Premium, Yellowstone and Sand Offices projects were completed and are nearing completion. In 2024, new projects and phases of Konstitucijos 14A, Jasinskio 2, TechZity, Uptown Park and Business Garden were launched. All of them will offer around 80 thousand sq. m. of office space to businesses, and together with Hero and Business Garden Central will bring around 130 thousand sq. m. of new office space to the market in 2025. The main completed projects will be Sąvaržėlė, Hero and Business Stadium Central. Another 150 thousand sq. m. are in the early stages of development and are likely to be on the market in 2026 or later. A significant part of the planned commercial real estate projects are located in the Central Business District (CBD) of Vilnius.
In 2024, the vacancy rate of Vilnius Class A business centres was around 6.5 per cent, Class B – approx. 9 per cent. Office rental prices have not changed significantly. In class A business centres, they reached EUR 16 – 20/sq. m., in B1 – EUR 12 – 16/sq. m., in B2 – approx. EUR 10/sq. m. In a tenant-dominated market, the latter could expect discounts or other better conditions during negotiations.
The last few years have not been characterised by significant office development in Kaunas. In 2024, the construction of the business centre "Hermanas" in the Nemunaičiai quarter has started, where over 10 thousand sq. m. of office space will be offered. A larger amount of nearly 40 thousand sq. m. of office space will only be offered on the market in 2025 or later.
In 2024, vacancy rates in newer, more attractive business centres have decreased. Meanwhile, older business centres can offer slightly larger office space. In class A business centres, vacancy rates are approx. 3 per cent, in B1 – approx. 5 per cent and in B2 – approx. 10 per cent. The low vacancy rates of more modern buildings provide an incentive for new office development and encourage owners of older buildings to consider refurbishment options. In class A business centres, rental prices are in the range of EUR 13 – 17/sq. m. , in B1 – EUR 10 – 14/sq. m. , in B2 – approx. EUR 8 – 9/sq. m. , but tenants, as in the capital city, have gained a bit more bargaining power.
The development of new business centre projects in Klaipėda remains sluggish, although the opening of the Memelis City Business Centre and 2BYSA Business Park is expected in the coming years. The development of "Memelio miestas" is one of the most important new projects in the port city, which, together with other projects being developed closer to the city centre, is likely to attract the attention of more inhabitants and investors, and to ensure the further development of business space in the city.
The passive development of business centres leads to a lower vacancy rate, which in mid-2024 was around 4 per cent in Class A business centres, 1 per cent – in B1 segment and around 10 per cent – in B2 class buildings. The projects currently under development will be a litmus test for testing the needs of Klaipėda's businesses for new business centres. The limited supply of office space has led to some price increases. In 2024, the price of class A premises was around EUR 12/sq. m., B1 – EUR 9 – 11/sq. m., B2 – up to EUR 8/sq. m.

* Net asset value per share and allocated dividends are recalculated considering the changed nominal value per share (EUR 1.45).
** Initial net asset value per share: EUR 2.1014, revaluated by the nominal value per share being EUR 1.45.
*** Considering resolution of the General Shareholders Meeting of the Company that was held on 9 April 2020 on repurchase of own shares of the Company due to material changes in the incorporation documents of the Company, the net asset value as of 30 April 2020 is announced. According to the published net asset value, the shares of the Company were repurchased from the shareholders of the Company who did not vote at the Meeting regarding material changes in the incorporation documents of the Company and express their wish to do so.
**** If the Company's net asset value on 30 September 2020 were calculated using the redeemable share liability calculated on the basis of the number of shares actually redeemed and not on the total number of redemption shares submitted, the net asset value would be EUR 28,143,520 or EUR 2.1567 per share.
***** According to the 23 December 2020 Company's announcement of the convocation of the General Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting, which was hold on 14 January 2021, if the shareholders of the Company make the decisions provided in the agenda of the Meeting, the process of buy-back of shares of Company due to material changes in the incorporation documents of the Company should take place. Therefore, the Company announced the Company's 30 November 2020 net asset value, according to which, the shares of the Company are repurchased from the shareholders of the Company who wish so and who did not vote at the Meeting regarding the material changes in the incorporation documents of the Company.
! The Company's Management Company performing the usual operational control measures, determined that in determining the value of the Company's net assets of 30 November 2020 and 31 December 2020, the error occurred. Accordingly, the adjusted values of the Company's net assets are presented: (i) the Company's net asset value as of 30 November 2020 was EUR 28,765,348, or EUR 2.2043 per share. The difference from the previously announced net asset value is 0.27 percent.(ii) the Company's net asset value as of 31 December 2020 was EUR 28,832,682, or EUR 2.2095 per share. The difference from the previously announced net asset value is 0.13 percent. This discrepancy in the value of the Company's net assets did not have any negative consequences for the Company's shareholders. The Company's share buy-back, which ran from 25 January 2021 to 25 March 2021 (inclusive), was carried out based on a net asset value of 30 November 2020, that value was 0.27 percent higher than the above revised net asset value of 30 November 2020. The difference between the incorrect and the net asset value applied during the share buy-back process will be compensated by the Management Company.

15. Information on the Issuer's payable management fee, the amounts calculated by the Issuer, other assets transferred and guarantees granted to the Company's bodies and company providing accounting services
After the Bank of Lithuania issued the closed-ended type investment company operating license for INVL Baltic Real Estate on 22 December 2016, the rights and duties of the Board and the head of the Company are implemented by the Management Company INVL Asset Management.
The management fee payable to the Management Company (hereinafter – Management Fee) is the remuneration for management of the assets of the Company, which shall be payable for each quarter of a calendar year. By the decision of the General Shareholders' Meeting of the Company held on 29 December 2017, the Management Fee was reduced from 1.5% to 1.0%, the Management Fee for a calendar year shall be 0.25% for the quarter of the year of the weighted average capitalization of the Company. The Performance Fee shall be additionally paid to the Management Company under the procedure set in the Articles of Association. During the reporting period the Management fee payable to the Management Company was EUR 173 thousand and EUR zero success fee payable (in 2023 EUR 172 thousand and EUR zero success fee payable, 2022 EUR 176 thousand and EUR zero success fee payable, in 2021 EUR 209 thousand and EUR 1,516 thousand success fee payable, in 2020 the Management fee to the Management Company amounted to EUR 315 thousand and EUR 1,382 thousand success fee payable).
The Members of the Board and the Members of the Investment Committee of the Management Company do not receive remuneration for these duties. They are paid the salary according to the employment contract with the Management Company. Pursuant to Article 25 of the Law on Reporting of Companies and Groups of Companies of the Republic of Lithuania, from 2020 the Company publishes the Remuneration Report, which is available in Appendix No. 5 to the Company's Consolidated Annual Management Report for 2024.
As the Company does not have any employees, in the Appendix No. 5 the Company discloses the remuneration of the General Manager of the Management Company, members of Board of the Management Company and members of the UTIB Investment Committee appointed by the Management Company (hereinafter - the Management). The remunerations of the General Manager and Board members of the Management Company are calculated on the basis of the proportion of the Management Company's management income (including management and success fee revenues) received from the Company within the total income of the Management Company. The remunerations of the members of the Investment Committee of the Company are calculated in accordance with the part of the time actually allocated to the Company's management (for more details see Appendix No. 5 to the Annual Management Report).
During the reporting period the Members of the Board of the Management Company and the Members of the Investment Committee were paid EUR 2,580 of dividends, net of tax. There were no assets transferred, no guarantees granted, no bonuses paid and no special payouts made by the Company to its managing bodies. The managing bodies were not granted with bonuses by other companies of INVL Baltic Real Estate group.
During the reporting period INVL Baltic Real Estate Group and the Company for the company providing accounting services respectively paid EUR 41 thousand and EUR 24 thousand during the reporting period (in 2023 respectively EUR 41 thousand and EUR 24 thousand, 2022 respectively EUR 43 thousand and EUR 25 thousand, in 2021 respectively EUR 25 thousand and EUR 13 thousand, in 2020 - EUR 15 thousand and EUR 7 thousand during the reporting period).
Invalda INVL, AB and INVL Asset Management, UAB provided accounting services and preparation of the documents related with bookkeeping for INVL Baltic Real Estate according to an accounting services agreement until 1 December 2024. From 1 December 2024 these services are provided to the Company by INVL Farmland Management, UAB according to the services agreement No. 20241231/01.
INVL Baltic Real Estate has signed these agreements with the following intermediaries:
INVL Baltic Real Estate has no branches or representative offices.
Information, provided in this document, should not be considered complete and covering all aspects of the risk factors associated with public company's INVL Baltic Real Estate activity and securities. There are only basic risks and their descriptions provided in this report. Detailed descriptions of the risks are published on the Company's website.
The value of an investment into real estate can fluctuate in the short-term depending on the general economic situation, real estate lease and sale prices, demand and supply fluctuations. Investments into real estate should be made for a medium or long period in order that the investor could avoid the risk of short-term price fluctuations. Investments into real estate are related to higher-thanaverage risk. If investments are not profitable or in case of other unfavourable circumstances (inability to pay creditors in time), bankruptcy proceedings can be instituted against the Company. Redemption of the shares is limited, i.e., a shareholder cannot demand that the Company or the Management Company, which took over its management, would redeem the shares. But a Shareholder will have a possibility to sell shares in the secondary market.
Real estate projects developed by the Company can take longer than planned or cost more than planned and return on investments of the Company may decrease for this reason. Managing this risk, the Company will assign sufficient resources for control over the budgets and performance terms of real estate development projects.
There is a risk that in case of inflation the value of a share will grow slower than the inflation, which would result in the return lower than inflation. In such a case, the real return earned by persons who sold the shares of the Company in the market from increase in the value of the shares can be smaller than expected. In case of deflation, there would be a risk that the value of the Company's investments will decrease by reason of the drop of the general price level. Managing this risk, it will be sought to ensure the efficient activities and communication of the Company, thus increasing the attractiveness of its Shares to a wider circle of investors.
Real estate development tends to follow the general developments in the macroeconomic environment. Interest rates, unemployment, inflation, private consumption, capital expenditure and other macroeconomic indicators have significant influence on real estate developments and hence the operations and the potential profitability of the Group.
Favourable developments in the macroeconomic environment increase demand for real properties, allow the real estate companies to increase rent rates of properties and other prices related to activities of the Group. Adverse developments increase pressure on real estate prices, rent rates and yields. Hence the Group's results are dependent on general macroeconomic environment and adverse developments in the environment might lead to reconsideration of some of the Group's development plans, negative pressure on prices and rents of the Group's properties or other changes in relation to the Group's properties that might have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, results of operations, financial condition and profitability.
Real estate development is a cyclical sector. The number of real estate related transactions fluctuates significantly depending on the stage of the real estate cycle. In the Baltic countries cyclicality has been relatively high lately as a fast growth in prices fuelled by availability of cheap financing was followed by a steep decline as a result of financial crisis. In the future the Baltic real estate market might regain the lost momentum, again inflating the price levels, which might be followed by overheating of the market and downward pressure on the prices, thus, starting the next real estate cycle.
The success of the Company's investments will largely depend on decisions taken by persons in the Management Company who are responsible for management of the Company and on experience and capabilities of the said persons. There is no guarantee that the same persons will always remain responsible for management of the Company, however efforts will be used that activities of the Company would always be taken care of by properly qualified persons.
The Group's cash inflows currently are sufficient to finance operating cash outflows and to pay monthly instalments of repayments and interests' payments of bank borrowings. However, further development of the Group's activities will require substantial amounts of capital to fund acquisition costs. For this reason, failure to secure adequate levels of external financing might limit the Group's growth plans and place it at competitive disadvantage as compared to well-capitalized peers. Failure to obtain external financing may lead to forced sale of assets at unfavourable prices or even cause insolvency which may have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, results of operation or financial condition and may reduce the Shareholders' value.
The Group's lease agreements may be divided into two categories: non-cancellable fixed-term lease agreements and cancellable lease agreements entered for an unspecified term. For the cancellable lease agreements, tenants must notify the administrator 1- 6 months in advance if they wish to cancel the rent agreement.
The Group seeks to use both types of agreements, depending on the market situation and the properties in question. Lease agreements entered for an unspecified term involve nevertheless a risk that many such agreements may be terminated within a short period of time. The Group aims at renewing the fixed term lease agreements flexibly in cooperation with its tenants. There are, however, no guarantees that the Group will be successful in this. To prevent tenants from terminating the lease agreements, the Group may also be forced to agree on the reduction of rent fees. The reduction of rent fees payable to the Group under a large number of lease agreements and/or concurrent termination of a large number of lease agreements could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, results of operations and financial condition.
On 2 January 2013 the Company has entered into an agreement with a third party for property management and administration services on part of Company's asset portfolio. An agreement was terminated on 1 January 2018 after the Company's subsidiary Proprietas, UAB and the Company signed a property management and administration agreement. The detailed list of buildings, administered, based on this agreement is provided in Section 3.3. of the Company's consolidated annual management report "Information about the Issuer's group of companies". Under this agreement Proprietas, UAB, as an administrator of the property, is committed to increase Company's value and maintain high quality of service for buildings' tenants and employees. In case of change in administrative prices in the market, new contracts under less favourable conditions can be entered into with administrator, which may directly influence the increase in Company's costs.
There is a risk that an increase in base interest rates will increase the cost of servicing loans related to the Company's and the Group's investments, which could reduce the return on the Company's and the Group's investments. In order to mitigate this risk, the Management Company will seek to ensure that the Company and the Group obtain the majority of its loans at fixed interest rates. Where this seems necessary, the Company and the Group will hedge interest rate risk by entering into derivative contracts.
Leverage risk is related to possible depreciation of real estate objects acquired with borrowed money. Leverage increases the negative impact of potential investment depreciation on the net asset value of the Company and the Group. The higher the leverage, the greater this impact. To manage this risk, the Management Company will seek to use a level of leverage that can reasonably be expected to be refinanced in the event of a change in the macro-economic situation and that does not pose a significant threat to the solvency of the Company and the Group in the event of a depreciation of the investments.
The Company has given and may have given loans to other companies, therefore, in case of deterioration of the financial condition of those companies, there is a risk that the Company will not get back all the loans granted by it. The Management Company will seek to ensure that the Company takes reasonable and economically justifiable steps to assess the parties to transactions and their ability to perform their obligations properly.
Risk of liquidity of the Company's investments This is a risk to incur losses due to low liquidity of the market when it becomes difficult to sell assets at the desired time at the desired price. In management of this risk, the Company will regularly monitor the real estate market, will get ready for the property sale process in advance, in this way reducing the liquidity risk. Acquiring shares, the Shareholders also assume the risk of securities liquidity – in case of a drop in demand for shares or delisting them from the stock exchange, investors would face difficulties in realising them. In case of deterioration of the Company's financial situation, the
demand for shares, as well as their price may decrease. Liquidity risk also covers the cash flow disruption risk incurred by the Company due to late payments and/or full default on monetary obligations by insolvent tenants. In order to manage this risk, the Management Company will take measures so that the Company would have sufficient information about the market situation and could make decisions regarding the realisation of the Company's investments on the basis of such information.
The value of the investment in real estate can vary in the short term, depending on the general economic conditions, rent and purchase prices of real estate, demand and supply fluctuations, etc. Investment in real estate should be carried out in the medium and long term, so that the investor could avoid short-term price fluctuations. Investing in real estate is related to higher than medium risks. Failure of investments of the Group or under other ill-affected circumstances (having been unable to pay for the creditors) can have a significant adverse effect on the Group's performance and financial situation or in the worst-case scenario bankruptcy proceedings may be initiated.
This is a risk that one bad investment can have a significant effect on the results of the Company. To reduce this risk, the Company will have a sufficient number of different real estate objects in its portfolio, in this way maintaining the proper diversification level. In order to reduce this risk, the Company will have a sufficient number of different real estate objects in its portfolio, in this way maintaining the proper diversification level.
The Company will seek to let real estate objects at as high prices as possible. Though currently the rent is paid in time (overdue obligations of tenants are very small and are not significant for activities of the Company), there is a risk that upon change (deterioration) of the economic situation the tenants will default on their obligations – this would have a negative impact on the profit and cash flows of the Company. In case of late performance of a large part of obligations, the ordinary business of the Company may be disrupted, it may be necessary to search for additional sources of financing, which may be not always available. The Company, in case of failure to earn planned income from lease or to maintain a high percentage of occupation of the buildings, can face the problem of costs that are not compensated by permanent tenants. This risk may manifest itself in case of big increase in the supply of rented premises and reduction in demand, drop-in rental fees. In case of a failure to let the premises at planned prices or in planned scopes, also in case current tenants terminate their lease agreements, the income of the Company could decrease, whereas fixed costs would remain the same. Accordingly, the profit of the Company would decrease. Seeking to avoid such situations, the Management Company will constantly monitor the status of the Company's property with the tenants so that the tenants who pose a threat of default on their obligations would be replaced by tenants who would pose a lower risk. Despite this, this risk is not and cannot be eliminated.
The assets of the Company will be evaluated according to the main rules set in the Articles of Association and the Accounting Policy of the Management Company. Valuation of individual assets held by the Company shall be performed by at least one independent appraiser, however such valuation of assets shall be only determining the value of the assets, which does not automatically mean the exact sale price of an investment held by the Company, which depends on many circumstances, for example, economic and other conditions, which cannot be controlled. Thus, the sale price of investments held by the Company can be higher or lower than the value of assets determined by a property appraiser. In order to manage this risk, only the property appraisers who can ensure the high quality of services will be selected.
The Company, investing into investment objects, will compete with other investors, including, without limitation, with other investment companies or real estate investment funds. Thus, there is a risk that competition with other investors will demand that the Company would conduct transactions at less favourable conditions than it would be possible in other cases. When managing this risk, the Management Company will seek to use the maximally broad network of business contacts in order to conduct transactions the knowledge of which is not sufficiently wide to create significant competition.
Acquisition of shares entails the risk to incur losses due to unfavourable changes in the share price in the market. A drop in the price of the shares can be caused by negative changes in the value of assets and profitability of the Company, general share market trends in the region and in the world. Trade in shares can depend on comments of financial brokers and analysts and announced independent analyses about the Company and its activities. If the analysts give an adverse opinion about prospects of the shares, this can also have a negative effect on the price of shares in the market. In assessing shares, non-professional investors are advised to address intermediaries of public trading or other specialists in this field for help.
Dividend payment risk
There is a risk that the Company will not pay dividends. The decision to pay dividends will depend on the profitability of operations, cash flow, investment plans and overall financial situation and other circumstances. Managing this risk, the Management Company will seek to inform the Shareholders, within the terms established by law, about the Company's financial results so that the Shareholders could plan their cash flows accordingly. Liquidity of the Issuer's shares is not guaranteed
It may be possible that in case an investor wants to urgently sell the Issuer's securities (especially a large number of them), demand for them on the exchange will not be sufficient. Therefore, sale of shares can take some more time, or the investor may be forced to sell shares at a lower price. Analogous consequences could appear after the exclusion of the Company's shares from the Secondary List of Nasdaq. Besides, in case of deterioration of the Company's financial situation, demand for the shares of the Company and, at the same time, their price may decrease.
There is a risk that there will be such situations where the interests of the Management Company (or related persons) and of the Company or the Shareholders will differ or the interests of individual Shareholders will differ, i.e., there will be a conflict of interest. When it is impossible to avoid a conflict of interest, the Management Company must ensure that the Shareholders are treated fairly. In accordance with the legal acts regulating the organisation of the activities of collective investment undertakings, the Management Company has implemented proper tools to prevent conflicts of interest which allow to carry out the activity of preventing and managing conflicts of interest independently in order to prevent or reduce the risk of conflicts of interest or to properly manage any existing conflict of interest. Employees of the Management Company must immediately, as soon as they become aware of such information, notify the Investment Committee and/or Advisory Committee (if any formed) about a potential or existing conflict of interest. The Investment Committee, approving of investment decisions, shall take into account the information presented to it about potential or existing conflicts of interest. The Investment Committee shall immediately inform the head and the Board of the Management Company about conflicts of interest it is aware of. The service providers of the Company and/or the Management Company (to the extent related to the management of the Company) may provide services also to other collective investment undertakings which have similar investment targets, investment strategy and investment policy as the Company. Thus, there may be such situations where any service provider, while carrying out its activities and providing its services to the Company, would have a potential conflict of interest in respect of the Company. In such situations each of them will have to act having regard to the provisions of the contracts concluded by the Company and/or the Management Company for the benefit of the Company (including the confidentiality undertakings).
There is a risk that legal actions may be taken against the Company and/or the Management Company including but not limited to disputing the issue of a licence of a closed-end investment undertaking (the permit to approve the incorporation documents of the Company and to choose the depository) or the powers of the Management Company to manage the Company, also enforcing recovery from the assets of the Company for fulfilment of the obligations to creditors of Shareholders and/or the Management Company or demanding that Shareholders and/or the Management Company fulfil the outstanding obligations of the Company.
Most Shares (around 80 per cent) and votes conferred by them are held by several major Shareholders who control AB Invalda INVL and the Management Company as of the date of the entry into force of the Articles of Association; therefore, these Shareholders can exercise significant influence on the Company's activities. There are no guarantees that the position of these Shareholders will always coincide with the opinion and interests of the Management Company and minor shareholders.
There is a risk that upon changes in the legal acts of the Republic of Lithuania or of the States i where assets of the Company are invested, such changes in legal acts can the protection of the Company's investments, their profitability and value, or the changes in the legislation can have a different negative impact on the Company's rights and interests. In this context, the Company will only invest in assets located in Member States of the European Union. Managing this risk, it will be sought to have in place an effective regulation monitoring system and participate in associated business structures which can have a lawful impact on legislative processes that are significant to the Company.
There is a risk that, upon changes in the country's economic conditions, political situation or due to other reasons, new taxes on Shareholders, the Company or investment objects of the Company will appear or the rates of current taxes will increase, therefore the price, liquidity and/or attractiveness of the Shares or the value of investments of the Company may decrease. Managing this risk, the Management Company will seek to organise the Company's activities by ensuring the optimal tax regime applicable to it.
The Company and/or Controlled Companies and/or Real Estate Companies conclude and/or may conclude mutual transactions which can be declared by the tax administrator as non-compliant with the requirements of the legal acts applicable to such transactions (e.g. failure to comply with the arms-length rule). In such case the Company and/or Controlled Companies and/or Real Estate Companies may have to pay the respective fines and/or interest established in the legal acts. In order to manage this risk, the
Management Company will seek to follow the most recent practice in the application of the tax legal acts reasonably articulated by the tax administrator; however, it cannot be considered that this risk has been eliminated.
There is a risk that the activities of the Company may be affected by geopolitical changes (e.g. conflicts between states, internal conflicts of neighbouring states, insurrections, wars) and for this reason the investment value of the Company can decrease or it may be impossible to sell the Company's investments at the desired time for the desired price. The usual monitoring of the geopolitical situation carried out by the Management Company should contribute to the management of this risk.
Forward-looking statements are based on estimates, opinion, expectations and forecasts regarding future events and financial trends that will possibly have an impact on the Company's activities. Future-looking statements include information about potential or presumable results of the Company's activities, investment strategy, contractual relationships, borrowing plans, investment conditions, effect of future regulation and other information. The Company is unable to ensure that forward-looking statements will fully and correctly reflect future events and circumstances. The Company, the Management Company and its employees are under no obligation to specify or alter forward-looking statements except to the extent required by laws and the Articles of Association. It is sought to avoid misleading the Shareholders or the persons who intend to become Shareholders by informing them about the conditionality of forward-looking statements.
There is a risk that the activities of the Company and the general performance results of the Company can be negatively affected by demands and claims regarding the non-disclosed or non-identified obligations and/or violations related to the investments acquired by the Company which may result in the Company's liability for such obligations and/or violations and, therefore, the value of the Company's investments and the price of Share can decrease significantly. When managing this risk (to the possible extent of acting reasonable and having regard to economic efficiency criteria), it will be sought not to assume any liability obligations or limit them significantly.
In case of realisation of one or several of the risks indicated above, which would have a negative effect on the value and/or liquidity of Controlled Companies and/or Real Estate Company, this can result in the Company's solvency problems when the Company is incapable of fulfilling the assumed obligations. In such a case, the Company's shareholders can lose all their funds invested in the Company. The Management Company will provide the Shareholders with all information specified by law which would enable the Shareholders to take respective decisions regarding the possession or sale of Shares, having regard to the Company's financial situation.
The applicable legal acts provide for the duty of the Company in certain circumstances to redeem its shares from the shareholders who demanded such redemption. Accordingly, if the Company becomes subject to the duty to offer to the Shareholders redemption of its own Shares and if such a redemption is requested by the Shareholders holding a significant number of Shares, the Company may be forced to sell its investments urgently, which can significantly reduce the return earned by the Company from the sale of investments. The respective measures are provided for the management of this risk in the Articles of Association.
In 2024 the most important risk factor remained Interest rate risk. A description of the risk factor and a brief commentary:
As in the year 2023 the Company was operating in the face of high interest rates. The Company pays floating interest rates on Euribor-linked loans. In 2024, interest rates decreased compared to 2023, but still remained at a relatively high level, which had a negative impact on the results. In 2024, interest rates have been decreasing, which is expected to stabilise the impact of this risk.
There is a risk that in case of fast recovery of the global economy or increase in inflation, central banks will increase interest rates and it will be more expensive to service loans in connection with the Company's investments, therefore, the value of the Company's investments can decrease. To avoid this risk, the Management Company shall seek that the Company would get most of its loans at fixed interest rates. If it seems necessary, the Company shall hedge against interest rate risk when entering relevant transactions.
Rising interest rates will increase the Group's debt service costs, which will reduce the return on investment. If considered necessary, the Group will manage interest rate risk by entering financial derivatives' contracts.
The Audit Committee supervises preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Systems of internal control and financial risk management and how the Company follows legal acts that regulate preparation of consolidated financial statements.
The Management Company of INVL Baltic Real Estate is responsible for the supervision and final review of the consolidated financial statements.
