2.VISION, MISSION AND VALUES OF THE TELEKOM SLOVENIJE GROUP

2.1. Vision, mission and values

2.2. Key strategic objectives

The Telekom Slovenije Group implements its strategy in accordance with adopted strategic policies. The Strategic Business Plan is the core corporate document. Defined in that document through its mission, vision, values, business model, objectives and strategy are the Telekom Slovenije Group's 's future development and strategic policies. The document outlines the future business strategy of the Telekom Slovenije Group.

Expectations for 2023 are characterised by uncertainty in the economic environment, primarily in connection with conditions on the energy markets, and the continuation of the war in Ukraine and high inflation. The Telekom Slovenije Group expects uncertainty in the international environment to continue rising, but is still planning growth and development.

The Group drew up an ambitious business plan for 2023, the goal of which is to reverse the trend of recent years, and achieve growth in revenues and the number of users in all segments, and further strengthen its market shares. The Telekom Slovenije Group is and strives to be the first choice of users, while it provides the most advanced services and an excellent user experience in a superior network based on continuous development.

Strategic objectives of the Telekom Slovenije Group

Leader in user experience

The leading user experience is based on the best, most reliable and largest network, while we create that user experience in accordance with the latest trends and changing user habits. Through a superior user experience, we achieve short-term business objectives and strengthen our long-term strategic position to remain the first choice of users. Crucial in that regard are digital excellence, ensuring security, contactless operations and the dynamic adaptation to the needs and habits of the users of communication services.

Digitalisation of operations

We will improve the efficiency of operations through accelerated digitalisation. In the digital transformation process, we will digitalise key business processes involving users. This, in turn, will significantly improve the speed and efficiency of the Telekom Slovenije Group's operations, and also facilitate the improved competitiveness of the Group in the future.

Growth in ICT services

Growth in ICT services and solutions will be based on the existing superior LTE/4G network, and the opportunities offered by fifth

generation (5G) mobile networks. 5G technology will facilitate the development of smart industry and smart cities, as well as the introduction of virtual campus networks, which in turn will enable the continued digitalisation of various verticals, such as energy, transportation, logistics, industry, smart cities, healthcare, and protection and rescue (public safety). The Telekom Slovenije Group will ensure the digitalisation of society as a whole on that basis. We will achieve overall growth through organic growth and the consolidation of the Slovenian ICT market.

Stabilisation of the level of revenues from the core activity in Slovenia

The basic telecommunications market is stagnating in Slovenia, while Telekom Slovenije is under additional pressure from regulatory bodies. We will preserve revenues through accelerated digitalisation and the development of digital services, the further development of the network, the development of services based on 5G technology, successful cooperation with regulators, and above all the best user experience.

Consolidation on individual markets

The European telecommunications market is experiencing the consolidation of the sector, the merging of operators and a changing portfolio of services on the one hand, and the entry of new competitors on the ICT market on the other hand, which will further impact the operations of operators. The Telekom Slovenije Group is actively involved in consolidation processes on the markets where it operates.

Optimal employee structure The Telekom Slovenije Group will continue to ensure the optimal employee structure, taking into account the needs of work processes at individual companies. We are optimising the employee structure through the strategic planning of needs for staff, and the appropriate organisational structure and job classification. We are building the employer brand through an effective remuneration system, and the development of knowledge and competences.

Financial stability and the optimisation of all types of costs

We are implementing activities that facilitate the effective management of liquidity, and ensure a high level of financial stability and the optimal level of borrowing. We continuously optimise all types of costs in connection with the performance of individual processes and the provision of services.

Creating a sustainable future

The Group actively identifies opportunities where it can contribute to the development of the social and economic environment in which it operates, through its expertise, and financial and other resources. The principles of sustainable development are built into our operations, products, services and content, while we also responsibly manage the economic, social and environmental impacts of our operations.

3.7. Risk management

Key risks are presented below by Telekom Slovenije Group company.

TELEKOM SLOVENIJE

Strategic risks

• On the market, Telekom Slovenije faces stiff competition, regulatory requirements, the changing needs and price-sensitivity of users and the migration of voice traffic to OTT platforms. Users demand high-quality and more extensive services at lower prices. The management of such risks requires a targeted market approach, the constant introduction of innovations, and the active monitoring of the expectations of users and current market trends. The focus is on ensuring high quality and a broad range of services for individual user segments, and the continuous adaptation of business solutions and the portfolio. The optimisation and development of the product portfolio are ongoing processes. The use of advanced mobile payment options is encouraged. Mobile and fixed packages have been revamped, and include increased internet speeds for an improved user experience. Intensive activities are being carried in the sale of cyber security, IT support, eCare and telemedicine services, and comprehensive ICT solutions tailored to the needs of business users, while strategic partnerships are being formed for innovative solutions. Programmes are being implemented to maintain subscribers and digitalise processes for users (digital communication, simple IT architecture and technology). A new CRM system is being implemented for business users and for the needs of the wholesale market. Longer-term agreements are being concluded with international operators with an agreed traffic volume. The wholesale portfolio is being adapted in accordance with regulatory obligations and taking into account market needs. Additional international redundant connections have been established to increase cyber security.

Financial risks

  • Telekom Slovenije actively monitors changes in the financial environment, as well as various financial risks to which it is exposed in its operations. To that end, it balances optimal sources of financing and ensures the appropriate maturities and diversification of financial debt.
  • Liquidity risk is managed through the management and planning of cash flows, through the optimisation of working capital, by

ensuring the appropriate maturities of financial debt, and through short-term credit lines that are regularly rolled over taking into account needs and the use of liquid assets within the Group.

  • The Company manages credit risk through the active monitoring of credit exposure to customers, and the operations and credit ratings thereof, and by limiting maximum allowable exposures. It further hedges against the risk of the deteriorating financial position of customers through credit insurance and by regularly monitoring the appropriateness thereof. Monitoring of the settlement of customers' contractual obligations and the active recovery of past-due debt are elements of comprehensive credit risk management.
  • Due to unfavourable trends in market interest rates, the Company closely monitors developments on the financial markets, and manages the risk of rising interest rates by ensuring the appropriate structure of debt bearing fixed and variable interest rates. At the level of the Group and Company, 27.6% of financial debt from loans raised bears a fixed interest rate.
  • Telekom Slovenije manages credit risk in connection with receivables from loans to subsidiaries by regularly monitoring and controlling the operations and level of exposure to subsidiaries.

Regulatory and compliance-related risks

  • In its operations, Telekom Slovenije complies with valid legislation, as well as decisions and aspects of sectoral regulations and other competent bodies. Regulatory risks are managed through organisational and procedural measures in the Company's operations, through constructive dialogue, by putting forth opinions, comments and suggestions in public consultations regarding drafts of general and specific laws issued by the regulator, and by taking legal action against issued regulatory decisions, whenever that is justified.
  • The risk associated with personal data protection derives from the large scope and categories of personal data that Telekom Slovenije processes as the leading operator in Slovenia. Key in that respect is the application of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free

movement of such data (General Data Protection Regulation or GDPR) and sectoral legislation, in particular the Electronic Communications Act (ZEKom-1 and the new ZEKom-2). The GDPR brought stricter regulation and increased the awareness of both users and the general public regarding the protection of data, while sectoral legislation sets out the obligations of the Company in individual areas of operations. The new Personal Data Protection Act (ZVOP-2) entered into force on 26 January 2023. Under that act, the Information Commissioner will carry out supervision in accordance with the GDPR, while the new act also brought updated requirements for specific areas of personal data processing. Telekom Slovenije ensures compliance through the continuous monitoring, updating and improvement of personal data processing and internal control processes for personal data protection. Accordingly, it is monitoring the drafting of other regulations in the area of personal data protection at the national level (e.g. the ZEISZ) and EU level (where the e-privacy regulation is being coordinated by EU bodies and the draft Data Act is under consideration) that will impact the processing of data during the provision of the Company's services.

Operational risks

• Telekom Slovenije gives a great deal of attention to managing ICT-related operational risks. These risks are controlled through the management and development of sub-systems, and by improving operational efficiency, processes and staff, while supporting new business opportunities. The Company continuously optimises the network, data centres and other technical infrastructure taking into account the development of the market and technologies. The use of standard (cloud) building blocks in the network and information systems is increasing. The capacity of equipment is being upgraded and the number of licences increased in the mobile network in line with growth in traffic. Multiple activities are in progress to replace communication equipment in the MPLS backbone network and to upgrade the mobile packet network. Modern network technology (Software Defined Access), which includes the 'zero trust' principle of cyber security and advanced user authentication and authorisation techniques, is being introduced at an accelerated rate in the internal business network. In the area of ICT security, the Company continuously develops systems for monitoring technologies and anomalies in the infrastructure and ICT services, and conducts internal and external penetration testing. It also

performs security checks and shares knowledge and data regarding threats with European telecommunications operators, in particular with international cyber incident response teams. In place is the state-of-the-art Cyber Security Operation Centre that functions 365/24/7. Risks are managed through the implementation of the security policy, by identifying security threats and vulnerabilities, and by spreading the security culture. Investments are made continuously in the development of the capacities (people, processes and technologies) required to improve cyber resilience. The network (fixed and mobile) is continuously upgraded to prevent abuse by users in the national network and in international roaming.

  • The Company constantly improves IT processes and mechanisms to ensure the smooth functioning of systems and applications, and makes technological upgrades in line with trends.
  • It monitors market electricity prices and adapts purchasing models.
  • Telekom Slovenije also faces risks associated with retaining employees, as it is increasingly difficult to recruit and retain staff with specific expertise due to labour market conditions and increased demand for professionally qualified personnel. The Company responds to these risks through targeted development and training programmes, promotes the transfer of knowledge through mentors, offers support to employees in the acquisition of additional knowledge and competences, promotes cooperation and internal mobility, and carries out other activities to motivate and retain employees. It works actively with various educational institutions, and implements numerous activities to further build the employer brand and attract a diverse range of candidates. The Company has also conducted interviews this year aimed at retaining employees with key knowledge.
  • The Company manages risks associated with procurement procedures through a centralised procurement function and a standard process in connection with those procedures. In that context, it ensures regular communication with suppliers and the continuous monitoring of the availability of goods and the timeliness of deliveries. It also ensures the necessary safety stocks of strategic materials, searches for alternative suppliers and employs a strategy of multiple suppliers. The Company monitors compliance with contractual provisions.

Risks relating to sustainable operations

  • All aspects of sustainability (ESG) are integrated into the Strategic Business Plan of Telekom Slovenije and the Telekom Slovenije Group, as are the United Nations' sustainable development goals (SDGs), which represent an important factor in business decisions.
  • The Company identifies impacts from the external and internal environment through a stakeholder analysis and materiality assessment, and regularly monitors impacts and assesses risks on that basis. Risk management measures primarily relate to further efforts aimed at more efficient energy consumption and the reduction of emissions.
  • The Company and its partners are developing new ICT solutions that facilitate energy savings and the reduction of the carbon footprint.
  • Telekom Slovenije regularly briefs stakeholders and provides information regarding activities relating to its socially responsible and sustainable conduct.

Impact of the war in Ukraine

• The war in Ukraine has led to higher prices of energy, commodities, goods and services, disruptions in the supply chain, growth in labour costs due to higher transportation costs, rising interest rates and falling revenues due to reduced purchasing power. The changing conditions are also increasing risks in the area of cyber security.

AVTENTA

• Risks in connection with achieving planned revenues are managed through new sales opportunities and the development of digital solutions.

GVO

• Risks in connection with achieving planned revenues are managed through the search for new transactions via public tenders, and the search for new opportunities where the company serves as subcontractor on major projects (via public tenders and private investments).

SOLINE

• A change to conditions for the extension of the concession agreement on salt production can have a significant effect on the company's business model. The company is waiting for a decision from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Spatial Planning regarding that extension. A report on implementation of the concession agreement on the SSNP for the 10-year period 2011 to 2021, which is a precondition for extension of the concession agreement, and

the plan for the management of the park for the period 2022 to 2032 have been submitted.

• There is no insurance product that covers the risk of unfavourable weather conditions.

TSinpo

• Risks in connection with achieving planned sales of other market services are managed through online and direct communication, and by ensuring the optimal staffing.

TSmedia

• Risks in connection with achieving planned revenues are managed through new content projects and the expansion of the outdoor jumbo network, the search for new opportunities and new sales campaigns, which include the preparation of the creative basis for advertisements for larger orders.

IPKO

  • The company responds to the risk of the loss of users and revenues in the segment of fixed services due to aggressive competition through special promotional offers and the appropriate market approaches.
  • Risks associated with the loss of premium fixed segment customers due to the offer of programme content are managed through advertising and the promotion of new packages to maintain users, including the further enhancement of content and the search for alternative approaches.
  • Risks in connection with achieving revenues from business users are managed via campaigns to attract new users, and through cross-selling and additional sales.
  • There is risk in connection with maintaining growth in the number of subscribers in the mobile segment. The company is responding to that risk with promotional offers and through the appropriate market approaches.
  • The risk of additional investments due to regulatory requirements and the demands of the business environment relating to the shift from an aerial to an underground infrastructure is managed by coordinating with the Kosovo Energy Distribution Services (KEDS), local communities and other operators. The regulatory agency (RAEPC) is informed about potential negative impacts on the functioning of telecommunication services.
  • Risks in connection with non-standard IT are managed through the continuation of the BSS transformation programme and the consolidation of processes.
  • The company negotiates and communicates with all stakeholders in connection with the risk associated with the payment of copyright fees and fees for the transmission of programmes

via the cable network.

  • There is a risk of an additional reduction in the prices of call termination from countries of the Western Balkans, which will affect the company's revenues.
  • The migration of citizens affects market

potential, growth in the number of subscribers and the company's share of the telecommunication services market. That risk is managed through campaigns adapted to business and residential users.

FIRST QUARTER OF 2023

JANUARY

  • Telekom Slovenije's Supervisory Board discussed the Company's current business activities at its 9th ordinary session held on 9 January 2023. It gave its consent to the appointment of Vesna Lednik as Managing Director of TSinpo, for a four-year term of office that began on 10 January 2023.
  • Telekom Slovenije received a decision from the Ljubljana District Court on 16 January 2023. Under that decision, the court halted proceedings involving a countersuit from POP TV, d.o.o., Ljubljana and Kanal A, d.o.o., which demanded damages from Telekom Slovenije totalling EUR 58,154,012.16, with appertaining amounts. The halting of proceedings was the result of the withdrawal of the lawsuit filed against the two aforementioned companies by Telekom Slovenije and the withdrawal of the countersuit filed by those companies against Telekom Slovenije.
  • The independent international organisation, Top Employers Institute, once again awarded Telekom Slovenije the Top Employer certificate for 2023 following an in-depth assessment of HR practices.

Telekom Slovenije received the Top Employer certificate for the second consecutive year.

FEBRUARY

  • On 10 February 2023, member of the Management Board, Vesna Prodnik, MSc, purchased 400 of the Company's shares at a price of EUR 53.50 per share in the total amount of EUR 21,400.00.

tens of thousands). Telekom Slovenije recorded more than 100,000 users of the 5G network in February.

• Soline completed the renovation of four salt workers' houses in the Fontanigge area, which were damaged by floods in 2019 and 2020.

MARCH

  • On 20 March 2023, Vice-President of the Management Board, Boštjan Škufca Zaveršek, MSc, purchased 380 of the Company's shares at a price of EUR 52.00 per share in the total amount of EUR 19,760.
  • On 23 March 2023, Telekom Slovenije received a class action lawsuit from the Ljubljana District Court.

The court also called on the Company to respond with regard to the existence of conditions for confirmation of the class action lawsuit. That lawsuit allegedly represents damages incurred by the Company's subscribers in the period 1 January 2018 to 1 December 2022. Telekom Slovenije will respond to the lawsuit by the legally prescribed deadline.
  • On 31 March 2023, Telekom Slovenije received a decision from the Slovenian Competition Protection Agency (hereinafter: the CPA), under which the CPA halted proceedings to determine the breach of Article 9 of the Prevention of Restriction of Competition Act because it was unable to obtain evidence of the existence of the necessary technical solution prior to 3 March 2005 and thus calculations of the economic effect to support allegations of the abuse of a dominant position on the interoperator broadband access market with bitstreaming in the Republic of Slovenia (by making ADSL connections conditional on the prior leasing of ISDN connections).
  • Telekom Slovenije organised a press conference, at which it presented its Cyber Security Operation Centre and activities to ensure cyber resilience. It used the opportunity to raise awareness about the rising number of cyberattacks and attempted attacks on individuals, companies and organisations in Slovenia. In addition to such attacks, there is also an increasing number of attempts to abuse passwords, personal data and payment card data.
  • Telekom Slovenije and its partners at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering set up a 5G research and test environment. Modern equipment at technical faculties is crucial for educating the young people who are and will be the creators of the digital future.
  • Telekom Slovenije monitors user habits and updated the NEO and Naj packages on the basis of that monitoring. It included in NEO packages even faster internet access and a TV programming scheme with a broad range of content, while everything else is left to the imagination of users. Naj packages include even higher mobile data transfer quantities, both domestically and in countries covered by the EU tariff.
  • Telekom Slovenije donated EUR 20,000 to the Slovenian Red Cross for the renovation of the

6.SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING DATE

SECOND QUARTER OF 2023

APRIL

• There were no events.

7. CONDENSED INTERIM ACCOUNTING REPORT OF THE TELEKOM SLOVENIJE GROUP AND TELEKOM SLOVENIJE, D.D. FOR THE PERIOD JANUARY TO MARCH 2023

The condensed financial statements of the Telekom Slovenije Group and the condensed financial statements of the controlling company Telekom Slovenije, d.d. for the reported period and the comparable period last year were compiled in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU and in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act (ZGD).

The condensed financial statements for the period ending 31 March 2023 were compiled in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, and must be read together with the financial statements and disclosures compiled for the 2022 financial year. The financial statements for the period January–March 2023 and the comparable period January–March 2022 are unaudited, while the financial statements for the comparable period ending 31 December 2022 are audited. The financial statements of the Group and Company were compiled under the assumption that both are going concerns. Operations are not seasonal.

Changes in accounting policies

The accounting policies used in the compilation of the interim condensed financial statements are the same as those applied in the compilation of the financial statements for the financial year ending 31 December 2022.

Use of significant estimates and judgements

The compilation of the financial statements requires of management certain estimates, assessments and assumptions that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities as at the statement of financial position date and the amount of revenues and expenses in the period ending on the statement of financial position date. Future events and their impact cannot be determined with certainty. Accounting assessments therefore apply a judgement subject to change taking into account new events, experiences and additional information, and as the result of changes in the business environment. Actual values may vary from estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on a regular basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which estimates are revised, and in all future years affected by such revisions.

Functional and presentation currency

The reporting currency of the Telekom Slovenije Group is the euro, which is also the functional and presentation currency of the controlling company Telekom Slovenije. All financial information is presented in thousands of euros, unless otherwise stated.

Segment reporting

Segment reporting is based on the internal reporting system used by management in the management of operations. The criterion for segment reporting is the registered office where an activity is performed. The Telekom Slovenije Group thus presents its operations in the following two segments:

Slovenia: this segment includes all Group companies registered in Slovenia, and primarily activities in the areas of fixed and mobile telephony services, the construction and maintenance of the telecommunications network, multimedia and internet services, and content and digital TV. The segment comprises the following companies: Telekom Slovenije, GVO, Avtenta, TSmedia, Soline, TSinpo, Optic-Tel and Infratel, as well as the Heart Foundation, which organises and collects donations, grants and other monetary and non-monetary contributions to achieve the foundation's charitable mission.

Other countries: this segment comprises other Group companies, including IPKO, SIOL Zagreb, SIOL Sarajevo, SIOL Podgorica, SIOL Skopje, SIOL Belgrade, SIOL Prishtina and GVO Telekommunikation GmbH. This segment's main activity is the provision of telecommunication services.

Inter-segment sales were executed according to market terms. Intra-group transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process, and included in eliminations and adjustments.

The Group does not disclose finance income and expenses by segment, as the Group's financing is centralised at the level of the controlling company. Disclosures regarding revenues generated with external customers are described by type in the note 'Revenue'.

The accounting policies that apply to segments are the same as those that apply to the Group.

The sales revenue of the Telekom Slovenije Group amounted to EUR 163.2 million in the period January– March 2023, an increase of EUR 12 million relative to the same period in 2022.

Revenues from additional services include revenues from financial services, eHealth services and insurance. All revenue categories have recorded growth in 2023.

Revenues on the wholesale market were up relative to the same period in 2022, primarily due to higher revenues from domestic wholesale services.

Other operating income and revenues from merchandise were up relative to the same period in 2022 due to higher revenues generated by Slovenian subsidiaries on the market and higher revenues from the sale of ecommerce services at Telekom Slovenije.

The Telekom Slovenije Group generated revenues from leases in the amount of EUR 3,183 thousand in the period January–March 2023, compared with EUR 2,589 thousand during the same period last year.

In view of the accounting policies and breakdown, the fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is to be determined in certain cases. The Group and the Company apply the following hierarchy in determining fair values:

Level 1: determination of fair value directly by referencing the official published price on an active market; Level 2: other models used to determine fair value based on assumptions and material impact on fair value in line with observed current market transactions with the same instruments either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: other models used to determine fair value based on assumptions and material impact on fair value that are not in line with observed current market transactions with the same instruments and investments.

The table below only includes information regarding classification to the fair value hierarchy for assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value and for which fair value is disclosed.

7.3. Financial instruments and risk management

The financial risks to which the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije are most exposed in their operations are credit risk, solvency (liquidity) risk and interest rate risk. Exposure to individual types of financial risks is assessed regularly, while the appropriate measures to manage those risks are implemented based on an assessment of potential negative effects on financial stability.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if a subscriber or contracting party fails to settle their obligations in full or fails to settle them at all.

The maximum exposure to credit risk equals the book value of financial assets.

The main credit risk to which the Group and Telekom Slovenije are exposed derives primarily from default by subscribers (retail) and by operators (wholesale). The highest exposure to credit risk is seen in trade receivables. The latter amounted to EUR 169,165 thousand as at 31 March 2023, a decrease of EUR 1,241 thousand relative to the end of 2022. Telekom Slovenije's receivables make up the majority of the Group's trade and other receivables. Most receivables are unsecured. The Group's receivables are accounted for by a large number of individuals and legal entities. Its largest customers are operators, where turnover generally flows in both directions, which reduces net credit exposure. We assess that there is no significant concentration of credit risk vis-à-vis a particular customer or economic sector.

Procedures aimed at the management of receivables are implemented at Group companies and include the monitoring of business partners' credit ratings, the collateralisation of receivables, the monitoring of high-traffic subscribers and debt collection activities. The recovery procedure is conducted according to a pre-defined timeline (reminders and disconnection) and through specialised outsourced service providers. Telekom Slovenije requires the prior authorisation of an individual customer for concluding and changing subscription relationships, and for purchasing goods with deferred payment. As an additional measure for managing credit risk, larger Group companies have implemented systems to prevent fraud, i.e. a Fraud Management System (FMS). Telekom Slovenije, which has mostly post-paid customers, also has in place a Credit Management System (CMS).

As a result of procedures introduced for managing receivables, credit risk is assessed as manageable.

Expected credit losses from undue trade receivables are estimated at 0.50% (the same as in 2022).

The Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije also monitor credit risk in other areas of operations. Bank balances are allocated according to the principles of minimising risks and achieving the appropriate diversification by banks. Concentration risk is thus low. Credit risk is low as, due to the stability of the banking system and high liquidity of banks, there is no major risk in terms of bank balances. Thus, no expected credit losses have been recorded for cash and cash equivalents, as such losses are deemed insignificant given the dispersion of cash across multiple banks.

The Group is also exposed to risks associated with receivables arising from loans to employees and investments in short-term deposits. Lending risk is low, as loan repayments are mostly settled through payroll, while risks in connection with deposits are managed by monitoring the credit ratings of individual banks. No expected credit losses have been recorded for the aforementioned investments, as the latter are deemed insignificant with regard to total assets.

Telekom Slovenije is exposed to credit risk arising from receivables from loans granted to subsidiaries. The Company did not create impairments of the aforementioned receivables during the first quarter of 2023. The Company regularly monitors and supervises the operations of its subsidiaries and their ability to repay loans, and thus further mitigates the related credit risk.

Solvency risk

The Telekom Slovenije Group continuously settles its liabilities. The Group's solvency is the result of the active planning and management of cash flows, ensuring the appropriate maturities and the diversification of financial debt, financing within the Group, and the optimisation of working capital and cash. Liquidity risk at the Group level is managed by the controlling company, which plans and monitors subsidiaries' financing needs, and provides them the sources they require.

The majority of the Group's financial liabilities relate to two long-term syndicated loans in the total amount of EUR 262 million, a long-term loan in the amount of EUR 100 million from the European Investment Bank, and lease liabilities in the amount of EUR 71.3 million at the Group level and EUR 84 million at the Company level. The Group and Company regularly repay their liabilities from financing.

Telekom Slovenije repaid long-term loans in the total amount of EUR 7.7 million during the first quarter of 2023.

For the purpose of ensuring short-term liquidity, the Group and Company have open short-term credit lines at banks that are rolled over taking into account envisaged needs. Total liquidity reserves in the form of approved but undrawn short-term revolving credit lines and overdraft facilities at banks amounted to EUR 72 million as at 31 March 2023.

Interest-rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk of the negative impact of a change in market interest rates on the Group's operations. The exposure of the Group and Company to interest rate risk as at 31 March 2023 derives from a potential change in the EURIBOR reference interest rate.

Liabilities from loans raised with variable interest rates tied to the 6-month EURIBOR accounted for 72.4% of the financial liabilities of the Group and Company1 as at 31 March 2023. Other liabilities derive from long-term loans bearing fixed interest rates.

The Group and Company had an interest rate swap in the amount of 50% on one of three loan tranches that fell due for payment on 31 March 2023 with the aim of partially hedging exposure to interest rate risk as the result of a long-term syndicated loan. By hedging interest rate exposure through the use of an interest rate swap (IRS), the Group and Company partially hedge future cash flows against the risk of rising interest rates.

1 Includes the balance of principle on long-term loans.

Capital management

The objectives of the Group's and Company's capital management are capital adequacy and thus long-term liquidity, as well as financial stability, which ensures the best possible credit rating for the further financing of the Group's and Company's operations and development, and consequently the maximisation of shareholder value.

The Group and Company monitor changes in equity using the debt-to-equity and equity-to-total assets ratios. The Group's net financial debt includes loans received and other financial liabilities, less current financial assets and cash and cash equivalents. When adopting decisions relating to capital management, the Group also follows the financial covenants under loan agreements.
