The Board of Directors presents its report and audited financial statements of Mettmann Public Company Limited (the "Company") for the year ended 31 December 2024.
The principal activities of the Company, which are unchanged from last year, are that of investment holdings and interest earning activities.
The net profit of the Company for the year amounted to €1,044,020 (2023: €427,368). As of 31 December 2024, the total assets of the Company were €84,931,941 (2023: €51,890,761) and the net assets of the Company were €1,223,261 (2023: €179,241). The financial position, development and performance of the Company as presented in the financial statements are in line with the Board of Directors' expectations.
The Company continuously pursues new investments opportunities.
The principal risks and uncertainties faced by the Company, including the Company's exposure to financial risks, are disclosed in Notes 6, 7 and 27 of the financial statements.
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. For more information about financial risk factors and the Company's financial risk management policies as well as the use of financial instruments by the Company refer to Note 6 of the financial statements.
The Company does not maintain any branches.
The Company's results for the year are set out on page 8. The Board of Directors, following consideration of the availability of profits for distribution as well as the liquidity position of the Company, as of the sign-off date of these financial statements, does not recommend the payment of a dividend and the net profit for the year is retained.
There were no changes in the share capital of the Company during the year under review.
There were no changes in the Group structure during the year under review, other than as disclosed in Note 19 of the financial statements.
The Board of Directors, as at the date of this Management Report, has decided to partially adopt the Corporate Governance Code. The main reason for the partial adoption is that the cost of full implementation as per the provisions of the Corporate Governance Code would be disproportionate to the identified benefits from its implementation. The Board of Directors ensures adequate and robust internal control and risk management procedures for the preparation of the periodic information required for listed companies.

| Expected Credit Losses | How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Estimation of Expected Credit Losses (ECLs) on loans receivable The Company's Management estimates the credit allowance provisions on loans receivable using a three-stage ECL model in line with the requirements of IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments'. We focused on this area due to the following: · The size of the Company's loans receivable which represent 97% of the Company's total assets as at 31 December 2024, and · The estimation of ECLs on loans receivable involves significant judgements and key assumptions in relation to the Probabilities of Default (PDs) and Loss Given Defaults (LGDs). · For detailed information on the estimation of ECLs on loans receivable as well as the Company's credit management processes and credit risk exposures, refer to Notes 4, 6.2, 6.3, 7 and 20 of the separate financial statements. |
Our audit procedures included the following: · Obtaining an understanding and evaluating the appropriateness of the Company's three-stage methodology for estimating credit allowance provisions on loans receivable, and the key inputs and assumptions used in performing such assessment. · Evaluating the appropriateness and reasonableness of the inputs and key assumptions used in the estimation of ECLs on loans receivable, including, amongst others: i) Reviewing the terms of loan agreements to confirm the Company's rights for collaterals and the seniority of the Company's lending exposures; and ii) Evaluating the valuations performed by external real estate valuation experts for the properties for which the Company has rights to create collaterals as security for the Company's lending exposures. · Testing the accuracy of the ECL estimates on the Company's loans receivable as at 31 December 2024. · Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures made in Notes 4, 6.2, 6.3, 7, and 20 of the separate financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the relevant IFRSs. Based on the evidence obtained, we concluded that the methodology, inputs and key assumptions used by the Management in the estimation of ECLs on the Company's loans receivable as at 31 December 2024 and the related disclosures made in the separate financial statements were appropriate. |

Companies which do not distribute 70% of their profits after tax, as defined by the Special Contribution for the Defence of the Republic Law, within two years after the end of the relevant tax year, will be deemed to have distributed as dividends 70% of these profits. Special contribution for defence at the rate of 17% will be payable on such deemed dividend to the extent that the shareholders for deemed dividend distribution purposes at the end of the period of two years from the end of the year of assessment to which the profits refer, are Cyprus tax residents and domiciled. Deemed dividend distribution is also subject to a 2.65% contribution to the General Healthcare System. The amount of deemed distribution is reduced by any actual dividends paid out of the profits of the relevant year by the end of the period of two years from the end of the year of assessment to which the profits refer. This special contribution for defence is payable by the Company for the account of the shareholders.

Year ended 31 December 2024
The Company Mettmann Public Company Limited (the ''Company'') was incorporated in Cyprus on 20 December 2019 as a private limited liability company under the provisions of the Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113. Its registered office is at 67, Spyrou Araouzou, Ulysses House, Floor 2, Office 202, 3036 Limassol, Cyprus.
The Company was converted from a Private Limited Company to a Public Limited Company and was admitted to the Emerging Companies Market of the Cyprus Stock Exchange on 30 December 2022.
The principal activities of the Company, which are unchanged from last year, are those of investment holdings and interest earning activities.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union (EU) and the requirements of the Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113.
As of the date of the authorisation of these financial statements, all International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) that are effective as of 1 January 2024 have been adopted by the EU through the endorsement procedure established by the European Commission.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
These financial statements are the separate financial statements of the Company. The Company has prepared these parent's separate financial statements for compliance with the requirements of the Cyprus Income Tax Law and the Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113.
The Company prepared consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union for the Company, its subsidiaries and associates (together the "Group"). The Consolidated financial statements can be obtained from the Company's website.
Users of these parent's separate financial statements should read them together with the Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2024 in order to obtain a proper understanding of the financial position, the financial performance and the cash flows of the Company and the Group.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and requires Management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 7.
During the current year the Company adopted all the new and revised IFRS Accounting Standards that are relevant to its operations and are effective for accounting periods beginning on 1 January 2024. This adoption did not have a material effect on the accounting policies of the Company, with the exception of the following:
Year ended 31 December 2024
The material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented in these financial statements unless otherwise stated.
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control exists where the Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.
Investments in subsidiary companies are stated at cost less provision for impairment in value, which is recognised as an expense in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the period in which the impairment is identified.
Associates are all entities over which the Company has significant influence but not control or joint control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associated undertakings are stated at cost less provision for permanent impairment of value, which is recognised as an expense in the period in which the impairment is identified.
Loan interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.
Loan interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of financial assets, except for purchased or originated credit-impaired ("POCI") financial assets (i.e. assets that are credit impaired at initial recognition) for which the original credit-adjusted effective interest rate is applied to the amortised cost of the financial assets. The credit-adjusted effective interest rate is calculated based on the amortised cost of the financial asset instead of its gross carrying amount and incorporates the impact of expected credit losses in estimated future cash flows.
Dividends are received from investments in subsidiaries and associates. Dividends are recognised as "Dividend income" in profit or loss when the right to receive payment is established.
Interest expenses are charged to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income using the effective interest method.
Items included in the Company's financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ('the functional currency'). The financial statements are presented in Euro (€), which is the Company's functional and presentation currency.
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the annual average exchange rate. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.
Year ended 31 December 2024
Tax
Current tax liabilities and assets are measured at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the taxation authorities, using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted, or substantively enacted, by the reporting date.
Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method so as to write off the cost of each asset to its residual value over its estimated useful life. The annual depreciation rates are as follows:
| % | |
|---|---|
| Furniture and fixtures | 33 |
| Computer hardware | 20 |
The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
Where the carrying amount of an asset is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, the asset is written down immediately to its recoverable amount.
Expenditure for repairs and maintenance of property, plant and equipment is charged to the profit or loss of the year in which they were incurred. The cost of major renovations and other subsequent expenditure are included in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits in excess of the originally assessed standard of performance of the existing asset will flow to the Company. Major renovations are depreciated over the remaining useful life of the related asset.
The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The estimated useful lives of the right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:
Year ended 31 December 2024
The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Company's estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option.
When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
Right-of-use asset and associated lease liabilities are presented as separated lines on the face of statement of financial position.
A financial asset is measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) unless it is measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Classification depends on both the Company's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if:
(i) the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
(ii) the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Interest income from these financial assets is included in 'loan interest income'. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognised directly in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
Financial assets measured at amortised cost (AC) comprise: cash and cash equivalents, other receivables and loans receivable.
Financial assets are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Fair value at initial recognition is best evidenced by the transaction price. A gain or loss on initial recognition is only recorded if there is a difference between fair value and transaction price which can be evidenced by other observable current market transactions in the same instrument or by a valuation technique whose inputs include only data from observable markets.
Year ended 31 December 2024
The Company assesses on a forward-looking basis the ECL for debt instruments (including loans) measured at amortised cost and exposure arising from loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts. The Company measures ECL and recognises credit loss allowance at each reporting date. The measurement of ECL reflects: (i) an unbiased and probability weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes, (ii) time value of money and (iii) all reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost and effort at the end of each reporting period about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future conditions.
The carrying amount of the financial assets is reduced through the use of an allowance account, and the amount of the loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income within ''net impairment losses on financial assets". Subsequent recoveries of amounts for which loss allowance was previously recognised are credited against the same line item.
Debt instruments carried at amortised cost are presented in the statement of financial position net of the allowance for ECL.
The impairment methodology applied by the Company for calculating expected credit losses depends on the type of financial asset assessed for impairment. Specifically:
For all financial instruments that are subject to impairment under IFRS 9, the Company applies general approach - three stage model for impairment. The Company applies a three-stage model for impairment, based on changes in credit quality since initial recognition. A financial instrument that is not credit-impaired on initial recognition is classified in Stage 1.
Financial assets in Stage 1 have their ECL measured at an amount equal to the portion of lifetime ECL that results from default events possible within the next 12 months or until contractual maturity, if shorter (''12 Months ECL''). If the Company identifies a significant increase in credit risk (''SICR'') since initial recognition, the asset is transferred to Stage 2 and its ECL is measured based on ECL on a lifetime basis, that is, up until contractual maturity but considering expected prepayments, if any (''Lifetime ECL''). Refer to Note 6, Credit risk section, for a description of how the Company determines when a SICR has occurred. If the Company determines that a financial asset is credit-impaired, the asset is transferred to Stage 3 and its ECL is measured as a Lifetime ECL.
POCI financial assets are assets that are credit-impaired on initial recognition. For POCI assets, lifetime expected credit losses are incorporated into the calculation of the effective interest rate on initial recognition. Consequently, POCI assets do not carry an impairment allowance on initial recognition. The amount recognized as a loss allowance subsequent to initial recognition is equal to the changes in lifetime expected credit losses since the initial recognition of the asset and is recognized as an impairment gain or loss on financial assets in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income depending on whether the change in lifetime expected credit losses is favourable or not.
Financial assets are reclassified only when the business model for managing those assets changes. The reclassification has a prospective effect and takes place from the start of the first reporting period following the change.
Financial assets are written-off, in whole or in part, when the Company exhausted all practical recovery efforts and has concluded that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. The write-off represents a derecognition event. The Company may write-off financial assets that are still subject to enforcement activity when the Company seeks to recover amounts that are contractually due, however, there is no reasonable expectation of recovery.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand.
Year ended 31 December 2024
Financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value and classified as subsequently measured at amortised cost.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Borrowings are recorded initially at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the statement of financial position if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. This is not generally the case with master netting agreements, and the related assets and liabilities are presented gross in the statement of financial position. Offsetting transaction which occurred during the year 2024 is disclosed in Notes 20, 21 and 24 to the financial statements.
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Non-current liabilities represent amounts that are due more than twelve months from the reporting date.
The Company's main operations are in Cyprus and given that the Company's main activity is provision of financing to relates companies, for this reason operations are not analysed by geographical segment.
At the date of approval of these financial statements, standards and interpretations were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board which were not yet effective. Some of them were adopted by the European Union and others not yet. The Board of Directors expects that the adoption of these accounting standards in future periods will not have a material effect on the financial statements of the Company.
• Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability (issued on 15 August 2023) (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025).
Year ended 31 December 2024
The above are not expected to have significant impact on the Company's financial statements when they become effective.
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk and capital risk management arising from the financial instruments it holds. The risk management policies employed by the Company to manage these risks are discussed below:
Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk in relation to its current and non-current borrowings, and current and non-current loans receivable. Loans receivable and borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Company to fair value interest rate risk. The Company's Management monitors the interest rate fluctuations on a continuous basis and acts accordingly.
At the reporting date the interest rate profile of interest- bearing financial instruments was:
| Fixed rate instruments | 2024 € |
2023 € |
|---|---|---|
| Financial assets Financial liabilities |
82,073,516 (83,481,071) |
25,741,422 (51,346,896) |

Any increase/(decrease) in interest rates will have no effect on results and equity of the Company, because, all financial instruments are fixed rate.
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to meet an obligation. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, loans receivable and other receivables at amortised cost.
Credit risk is managed on a group basis. For banks and financial institutions, the Company manages credit risk by banking with solid and reputable financial institutions. The Company has established policies whereby the majority of bank balances are held with independently rated parties with a minimum rating of 'B'. The Management of the Company assesses credit risk by reviewing the banks' financial standing on a regular basis as reflected in ratings assigned to the banks by rating agencies.
Year ended 31 December 2024
For other receivables and loans receivable, the Company assesses on an individual basis, its exposure to credit risk from financial assets at amortised cost. This assessment takes into account, the period the loan receivable or other receivable balance is past due and history of defaults in the past, adjusted for forward looking information. At the reporting date, the Company does not expect any losses from non-performance by the counterparties.
These policies enable the Company to reduce its credit risk significantly.
(ii) Impairment of financial assets
The Company has the following types of financial assets that are subject to the expected credit loss model:
The impairment methodology applied by the Company for calculating expected credit losses depends on the type of financial asset assessed for impairment. Specifically:
• For all financial assets that are subject to impairment under IFRS 9, the Company applies general approach three stage model for impairment. The Company applies a three-stage model for impairment, based on changes in credit quality since initial recognition. A financial asset that is not credit-impaired on initial recognition is classified in Stage 1. Financial assets in Stage 1 have their ECL measured at an amount equal to the portion of lifetime ECL that results from default events possible within the next 12 months or until contractual maturity, if shorter (''12 Months ECL''). If the Company identifies a significant increase in credit risk (''SICR'') since initial recognition in the asset classified in Stage 1, the asset is transferred to Stage 2 and its ECL is measured based on ECL on a lifetime basis, that is, up until contractual maturity but considering expected prepayments, if any (''Lifetime ECL''). If the Company determines that a financial asset is credit-impaired further, the asset is transferred to Stage 3 and its ECL is measured as a Lifetime ECL.
Impairment losses are presented as net impairment losses on financial assets within operating profit. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the same line item.
The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of the asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information. Especially the following indicators are incorporated:
Regardless of the analysis above, a significant increase in credit risk is presumed if a borrower/counterparty is more than 30 days past due in making a contractual payment.
Year ended 31 December 2024
The Company considers a default on a financial asset when the borrower/counterparty fails to make contractual payments within 90 days of when they fall due and/or the borrower/counterparty is assessed as unlikely to pay its obligations in full without realisation of collateral, regardless of the existence of any past-due amount or the number of days past due.
Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Company. Where debt financial assets have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognised in profit or loss.
The Company's exposure to credit risk for each class of asset/instrument subject to the expected credit loss model is set out below:

Liquidity risk is the risk that arises when the maturity of assets and liabilities does not match. An unmatched position potentially enhances profitability, but can also increase the risk of losses. The Company has procedures with the object of minimising such losses such as maintaining sufficient cash and other highly liquid current assets and by having available an adequate amount of committed credit facilities.
The following tables detail the Company's remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay.

Currency risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Currency risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the Company's functional currency. The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures primarily with respect to the United States Dollars. The Company's Management monitors the exchange rate fluctuations on a continuous basis and acts accordingly.
The carrying amounts of the Company's foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the reporting date are as follows:
| Liabilities | Assets | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 | |

Sensitivity analysis
A 10% strengthening of the Euro against the following currencies at 31 December 2024 would have increased/(decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant. For a 10% weakening of the Euro against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit and equity.

The Company's objectives in managing capital are to safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares.
The Company monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings. Total capital is calculated as ''equity'' as shown in the statement of financial position plus net debt.
The Company's gearing ratio is as follows:
| 2024 | 2023 | |
|---|---|---|
| € | € | |
| Total borrowings (Note 24) | 83,481,071 | 51,346,896 |

The fair values of the Company's financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts at the reporting date.
Estimates and judgments 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.
The Company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Year ended 31 December 2024
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions (continued)
The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of investments in associates whenever indicators of impairment are present. Indicators of impairment include such items as declines in revenues, earnings or cash flows or material adverse changes in the economic or political stability of a particular country, which may indicate that the carrying amount of an asset is not recoverable. If facts and circumstances indicate that investment in associates may be impaired, the estimated future discounted cash flows associated with these associates would be compared to their carrying amounts to determine if a write-down to fair value is necessary.
When measuring expected credit losses, the Company uses reasonable and supportable forward-looking information, which is based on assumptions for the future movement of different economic drivers and how these drivers will affect each other.
Loss given default (LGD) is an estimate of the loss arising on default. It is based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due and those that the lender would expect to receive, taking into account cash flows from collateral and integral credit enhancements. In assessing LGDs for secured exposures, the Company considers the collateral type, liquidity and quality of pledged assets, geography (location of the collateral) and seniority of the lending exposure among others.
Probability of default (PD) constitutes a key input in measuring ECL. Probability of default is an estimate of the likelihood of default over a given time horizon, the calculation of which is based on historical data, current information, assumptions and expectations of future conditions.
At 31 December 2024, the management has assessed a decrease of 10% in the sale prices and a 10% increase of the construction costs for the properties for which the Company has a first priority right to create a collateral, and such decreases would not result in the recognition of material ECLs on the respective loans receivable.
Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes. There are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Company recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Under certain conditions interest income may be subject to defence contribution at the rate of 30% (reduced to 17% as of 1 January 2024). In such cases this interest will be exempt from corporation tax. In certain cases, dividends received from abroad may be subject to defence contribution at the rate of 17%.
Gains on disposal of qualifying titles (including shares, bonds, debentures, rights thereon etc) are exempt from Cyprus income tax.
Deferred tax is recognised, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.
No deferred tax has been recognised in these financial statements since no temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts have given rise to deferred tax for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Cyprus tax legislation is subject to varying interpretations. Management's interpretation of such legislation as applied to the transactions and activity of the Company may be challenged by the income tax authorities and it is possible that transactions and activities that have not been challenged in the past may be challenged. As a result, significant additional taxes, penalties and interest may be assessed. Fiscal periods remain open for review by the taxation authorities in respect of taxes for the six calendar years preceding the year of review. Under certain periods reviews may cover longer periods.
Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company with the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year.

The geopolitical situation in Eastern Europe intensified on 24 February 2022 with the commencement of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. As at the date of authorising these financial statements for issue, the conflict continues to evolve as military activity proceeds. In addition to the impact of the events on entities that have operations in Russia, Ukraine, or Belarus or that conduct business with their counterparties, the conflict is increasingly affecting economies and financial markets globally and exacerbating ongoing economic challenges.
The European Union as well as United States of America, Switzerland, United Kingdom and other countries imposed a series of restrictive measures (sanctions) against the Russian and Belarussian governments, various companies, and certain individuals. The sanctions imposed include an asset freeze and a prohibition from making funds available to the sanctioned individuals and entities. In addition, travel bans applicable to the sanctioned individuals prevents them from entering or transiting through the relevant territories. The Republic of Cyprus has adopted the United Nations and European Union measures. The rapid deterioration of the conflict in Ukraine may as well lead to the possibility of further sanctions in the future.
Emerging uncertainty regarding global supply of commodities due to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine conflict may also disrupt certain global trade flows and place significant upwards pressure on commodity prices and input costs as seen through early March 2022. Challenges for companies may include availability of funding to ensure access to raw materials, ability to finance margin payments and heightened risk of contractual non-performance.
The impact on the Company largely depends on the nature and duration of uncertain and unpredictable events, such as further military action, additional sanctions, and reactions to ongoing developments by global financial markets.
The financial effect of the current crisis on the global economy and overall business activities cannot be estimated with reasonable certainty at this stage, due to the pace at which the conflict prevails and the high level of uncertainties arising from the inability to reliably predict the outcome.
The impact on the expected credit losses of the Company's financial instruments that are subject to impairment under IFRS 9. IFRS 9 requires forward-looking information (including macro-economic information) to be considered both when assessing whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk and when measuring expected credit losses. As with any economic forecast the projections and likelihoods of their occurrence are subject to a high degree of inherent uncertainty and therefore the actual outcomes may be significantly different from those projected. Refer to Note 6 for more information on impairment of financial assets.
The Company has no exposure to Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus and as such does not expect impact from direct exposures to these countries.

Taking into consideration the principal activities of the borrowers, subsidiaries and associates which have been mainly engaged in real estate development, the increased demand for real estate purchases in Cyprus and Spain after 24 February 2022 has had rather a positive impact on the Company's business activity due to prices exceeding the pre-pandemic levels.
Management has considered the unique circumstances and the risk exposures of the Company and has concluded that there is no significant impact in the Company's profitability position. The event does not have an immediate material impact on the business operations.
Management will continue to monitor the situation closely in case the crisis becomes prolonged. Management will continue to monitor the situation closely and will assess further the implications as the events continue to evolve.
The Israel-Gaza conflict has escalated significantly after Hamas launched a major attack on 7 October 2023. Companies with material subsidiaries, operations, investments, contractual arrangements or joint ventures in the War area might be significantly exposed. Entities that do not have direct exposure to Israel and Gaza Strip are likely to be affected by the overall economic uncertainty and negative impacts on the global economy and major financial markets arising from the war.
The impact on the Company largely depends on the nature and duration of uncertain and unpredictable events, such as further military action, additional sanctions, and reactions to ongoing developments by global financial markets.
The financial effect of the current crisis on the global economy and overall business activities cannot be estimated with reasonable certainty at this stage, due to the pace at which the conflict prevails and the high level of uncertainties arising from the inability to reliably predict the outcome.
This is a volatile period and situation, however, the Company is not directly exposed. Management will continue to monitor the situation closely and take appropriate actions when and if needed.
For the purpose of these financial statements, parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability to control the other or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial or operational decisions as defined by IAS 24 "Related Party Disclosures".

On 2 August 2022, the Company entered into the Project collaboration and profit-sharing agreement, by means of which the major shareholder of the Company agreed to negotiate potential equity investment, i.e. the purchase of 100% of shares of a Spanish Company Sword Dragon, S.L. (the "subsidiary"), under maximum profitable terms and conditions.
The agreed remuneration for the provided assistance is 75% of the future dividends to be paid by the newly acquired subsidiary within 3 years, i.e., until 2 August 2025 (inclusive).
On 8 June 2023, dividend income amounting to €208,604 was received in cash from the subsidiary. During 2023-2024, the Company recognised the respective expense of €156,453 being 75% of the dividend received from the subsidiary and €7,025 of total penalty accrued being 0.01% of the remuneration not repaid within 20 business days but not exceeding 30% of the remuneration amount.
On 9 August 2024, the Company repaid €107,541 of debt under the Profit-sharing agreement. The balance of €55,937 remained partly unpaid as at 31 December 2024 (Note 28.14).
On 29 February 2024, the subsidiary Sword Dragon, S.L. declared dividend to the Company of €1,000,000. However, as the dividend was non-cash settled it was excluded from the scope of the agreement (Note 28.2).

Year ended 31 December 2024
As at 31 December 2024, the Company has a commitment to provide funding of €2,000,000 to its associate company and €43,750,000 to its indirect associate companies, in accordance with the terms of signed loan agreements.

As explained in Note 27 the geopolitical situation in Eastern Europe remains intense with the continuation of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the Israel-Gaza conflict. As at the date of authorising these financial statements for issue, the conflicts continue to evolve as military activity proceeds and additional sanctions are imposed. Depending on the duration of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the Israel-Gaza conflict, and continued negative impact on economy activity, the Company might experience further negative results, and liquidity restraints and incur impairments on its assets in 2025, which relate to new developments that occurred after the reporting period. The exact impact on the Company's activities in 2025 and thereafter cannot be predicted.

On 24 January 2025, the Company amended an existing loan agreement with its indirect associate, Prestige Expo, S.L., and decreased the loan principal amount from €11,100,000 to €4,600,000.
