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

2.1. Vision, mission and values

2.2. Key strategic objectives

The Strategic Business Plan for the period 2022 to 2026 is a core corporate document in which the strategic objectives and future development of the Telekom Slovenije Group are defined through its mission, vision, values and strategic policies. The Telekom Slovenije Group is implementing its established strategy in 2022 in accordance with adopted strategic policies. The strategic business plan is updated every year taking into account the conditions in the sector and across the globe.

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 pportunities 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 and the merging of operators. The portfolio of services is changing, while new competitors are entering the ICT market, 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. TELEKOM SLOVENIJE GROUP

3.1. Markets and companies of the Telekom Slovenije Group

The Telekom Slovenije Group comprises the controlling company Telekom Slovenije and its subsidiaries. The composition of the Telekom Slovenije Group and participating interests as at 31 March 2022 are presented in the picture below.

The detailed composition of the Telekom Slovenije Group is presented on the website https://www.telekom.si/opodjetju/skupina-telekom-slovenije/odvisne-druzbe.

Situation as at 31 March 2022

Changes in the Telekom Slovenije Group in 2022:

There were no changes in the period January to March 2022.

Telekom Slovenije is the founder of the Heart Foundation, the aim of which is to help the children of employees of Slovenian Telekom Slovenije Group companies who have lost a parent or who are seriously ill. The majority of the foundation's funds are contributed by the employees of Slovenian Telekom Slovenije Group companies.

3.2. Operating highlights

The Telekom Slovenije Group achieved the following results in the period January to March 2022:

  • The Telekom Slovenia Group generated EUR 152.5 million in operating revenues in the period January to March 2022.
  • Sales revenue totalled EUR 151.2 million, a decrease of 4% relative to the same period in 2021. Revenues from the mobile segment of the end-user market were down due to the optimisation of subscribers whose basic subscription fee includes an increasing number of services, and on account of lower revenues from the sale of mobile merchandise, which also results in lower costs. Revenues from the fixed segment of the end-user market were down due to a declining number of traditional connections and lower revenues from the sale of fixed merchandise, which results in lower costs. Telekom Slovenije halted the sale of electricity to end customers, effective 1 January 2022, which is reflected in revenues. Revenues from international voice services were lower.
  • The Telekom Slovenije Group's operating expenses totalled EUR 136.4 million, a decrease of 5% relative to the same period in 2021.
  • Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) amounted to EUR 16.1 million over the first three months of the year, an increase of 15% relative to the same period last year.
  • Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) totalled EUR 56.7 million at the Telekom Slovenije Group level, an increase of 2% relative to the same period in 2021. The EBITDA margin (i.e. EBITDA as a proportion of sales revenue) was 37.5% at the Group level.
  • Following the calculation of income tax (including deferred taxes), the Telekom Slovenije Group generated a net profit of EUR 12.0 million during the first three months of 2022, an increase of EUR 2.3 million or 23% relative to the same period in 2021.

Impact of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict on operations

The Telekom Slovenije Group's operations are not directly linked to the Russian and Ukrainian markets. For this reason, we currently assess that the conflict between those two countries will not have any significant direct impact on the Group's cash flows and financial sources. We will, however, feel indirect effects such as rising energy and electricity prices. In this respect, the Group is exposed to specific risks in the supply chain, as there may be shortages of certain materials for the manufacture of devices and other technical products, which may also result in delivery delays or higher prices. We are monitoring the situation closely and will continue to do so in the future, and will adapt activities as required. The changing global conditions increase risks in the area of cyber security. Our activities are therefore focused on ensuring the highest level of security, reliability and confidence, and on the management of associated risks. Telekom Slovenije's Cyber Security Operation Centre closely monitors security events 24/7, and we analyse and assess information from different sources regarding potential threats. At the global level, we are working with various organisations and adopting additional measures to increase the security of internal services and the services we provide to subscribers. The Group is thus ready at all times to respond to cyber threats.

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 effects, price-sensitive users, the migration of voice traffic to OTT platforms and the introduction of new technologies. Users demand high-quality and more extensive services at lower prices. The Slovenian market is saturated, which means less manoeuvring room for attracting new users. The management of such risks requires the regular implementation of activities to ensure competitiveness, control over regulatory measures, a targeted and active market approach, the provision of high-quality and readily available services, the continuous adaptation of business solutions, the adaptation of the portfolio, and the constant introduction of the latest developments for specific groups and segments of users. Sales activities are carried out and business meetings organised on the topics of cyber security and smart infrastructure services. Activities are also being carried out for the migration of business telephony to OTT cloud services and in the areas of eCare and telemedicine. The emphasis is on digitalisation, comprehensive ICT solutions and tailored solutions for the contemporary workplace.

Financial risks

  • Telekom Slovenije actively monitors the dynamics of the financial environment and other business factors, with the aim of appropriately managing credit, liquidity, interest-rate and currency risks.
  • 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 the needs for financing within the Group. For the purpose of financing the expansion and upgrading of the fibre optic access network, the Company signed a long-term loan agreement with the EIB. That loan has not yet been drawn down in full. The Company can draw down dedicated funds until the end of 2023.
  • Telekom Slovenije manages credit risk through the active monitoring of the operations of customers and their credit ratings, and by limiting maximum allowable exposures. The Company 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 contractual obligations and the active recovery of past-due debt are also elements of the systematic credit risk management tool. Telekom Slovenije regularly monitors credit exposure to customers.

  • It also hedges against interest-rate risk by concluding interest-rate swaps. Fixed or hedged interest rates account for 30% of interest-bearing financial liabilities at Telekom Slovenije.
  • Telekom Slovenije manages credit risk in connection with receivables from loans to subsidiaries by including various collateral instruments in loan agreements, while it regularly monitors the operations and liquidity of 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.
  • Currently being drafted is the new Electronic Communications Act (ZEKom-2), which will transpose the European Electronic Communications Code (EECC). The Slovenian government confirmed the amended ZEKom-2 on 17 March 2022, and that act was sent to National Assembly. The latter discussed the draft act under the urgent procedure at its session of 6 April 2022. Voting on the draft act was postponed until a decision is made regarding the motion for a consultative referendum.
  • Telekom Slovenije submitted comments and proposals in the scope of public consultations regarding the draft regulatory predictability strategy on the electronic communications market for the period 2022 to 2024, which the AKOS published on 21 December 2021. The AKOS published the final text of that strategy on 31 March 2022.

• 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. Of significance with regard to that risk 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). 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 Telekom Slovenije in individual areas of operations. Telekom Slovenije ensures compliance through the continuous monitoring, updating and improvement of personal data processing and internal control processes for personal data protection. A draft of the new Personal Data Protection Act (ZVOP-2) is being prepared. To that end, Telekom Slovenije was involved in drafting comments and suggestions in the scope of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia and other sectoral associations. The Company also monitors 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 eprivacy regulation is being coordinated by EU bodies and the Data Act is being drafted) 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. Risks in the area of security are managed through the hardening of communication network elements, vulnerability testing, penetration testing and the use of SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation and Response) to combine security orchestration, automation, threat intelligence and incident response. The Company ensures the implementation of its security policy and the spreading of the security culture amongst employees and the general public.
  • In the area of IT, the Company continuously improves processes and mechanisms for ensuring the continuous functioning of systems and applications, introduces new information

support features and implements target architecture solutions.

  • Telekom Slovenije also faces risks associated with retaining employees, as it is increasingly difficult to recruit qualified candidates with specific knowledge and retain staff with crucial expertise due to market conditions and increased demand for professionally qualified personnel. The Company focuses on the systematic development of employees and internal mobility, and implements other activities to motivate and retain employees.
  • Telekom Slovenije manages risks in connection with procurement processes through a centralised procurement function for which new information support was introduced. Key to risk management are communication with suppliers, the continuous monitoring of the availability of goods and the timeliness of deliveries, as well as the search for alternative suppliers. The Company monitors compliance with contractual provisions.

Impact of the war in Ukraine

  • Telekom Slovenije's operations are not directly linked to the Russian and Ukrainian markets. For this reason, we assess that the conflict between those two countries will not have any significant direct impact on the Company's cash flows and financial sources.
  • Activities and the retail market portfolio were adapted due to the impact of general price growth, while special attention is being given to specific user segments in order to ensure the stability of the subscriber portfolio (B2C market).
  • The Company stopped forwarding transit traffic with operators from Russia and Belarus, and regularly monitors telephone traffic with the aim of preventing fraud. A bilateral agreement was concluded on the reduction of call termination prices in Ukraine and in Telekom Slovenije's network.
  • The supply chain could suffer from shortages of certain materials for the manufacture of devices and other technical products, which is already leading to delivery delays and higher prices of goods and services. The Company ensures higher buffer stock of specific types of goods and backup equipment, ensures timely procurement and focuses on the search for alternative suppliers, where possible.
  • Telekom Slovenije is facing higher prices of electricity and other energy products. The situation on the market is being monitored.
  • The changing global conditions increase risks in the area of cyber security. The Company's activities are therefore focused on ensuring the highest level of security, reliability and confidence, and on the management of

associated risks. The Cyber Security Operation Centre closely monitors, analyses and assesses information from different sources regarding potential threats. The aforementioned centre is working with various organisations and adopting additional measures to increase the security of internal services and the services we provide to subscribers. The Group is thus ready at all times to respond to cyber threats.

AVTENTA

  • Risks in connection with achieving planned revenues are managed through a competitive portfolio and the development of digital solutions.
  • The war in Ukraine impacts operations due to a general rise in the costs of energy and services.

GVO

  • The company faces risks in connection with the appropriate employee structure, where measures are being implemented to improve the age structure and maintain flexibility.
  • The war in Ukraine is having a delayed impact on the supply of materials, and is resulting in higher prices of materials, services and energy products. The company is ordering materials early, searching for alternative suppliers and gradually updating its car fleet with electric vehicles.

SOLINE

  • Weather-related risks are tied to the risk of a loss of salt production due to adverse weather conditions, as salt production is a seasonal activity. The operations of Soline are being adapted through the expansion of sales programmes, while the infrastructure is also being adapted with the help of the Climate Plan of the Republic of Slovenia.
  • Changes to the concession agreement on salt production can have a significant effect on the company's business model. The Slovenian government has adopted a measure and extended the aforementioned concession for 18 months. The Ministry of the Environment and Spatial Planning submitted a proposal to amend the Mining Act, according to which Soline would not pay easement. Amendments to that act are expected by the end of 2023.
  • The war in Ukraine is resulting in lower revenues due to a drop in the number of Russian and Ukrainian visitors to the Lepa Vida Thalasso Spa.

TSinpo

  • Risks in connection with achieving planned sales of cardboard products relate to the delayed investment in a new line of machines. The company is increasing sales of eco sleeves and adapting to the needs of its customers.
  • The war in Ukraine is resulting in higher costs due to higher prices of raw materials and energy products, and due to disruptions in supply chains. The company is searching for alternative supply sources.

TSmedia

  • The risk of failure to achieve planned revenues is managed through the implementation of new video content projects, the setting of promotional prices for advertisers and the search for new customers. The company is expanding its network of large advertising screens and implementing various sales campaigns.
  • The war in Ukraine is resulting in delays and cancellations of advertising campaigns and projects. The company is marketing additional advertising space, and introducing new advanced forms of advertising and exclusive leasing packages.

IPKO

  • The company responds to the risk of the loss of users and revenues in the segment of fixed services due to unfair competition through special promotional offers and the appropriate market approaches.
  • There is a risk that the company will fail to maintain the trend of growth in the number of subscribers, which it strives to achieve through various market activities.
  • There is also a risk of unfavourable conditions for the purchase of the frequencies that the company requires to provide broadband mobile services.
  • Risks in connection with programme broadcasting rights and the broadcasting of TV content are managed through advertising and new packages to maintain users and by searching for partners to broadcast content.
  • The risk of additional investments relating to the shift from an aerial to an underground infrastructure is managed by coordinating with the Kosovo Energy Distribution Services (KEDS), municipalities and other operators.
  • The company negotiates with government authorities 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.
  • With respect to risks in connection with legislative changes and the interpretation thereof, the company expects that the new public procurement act will be in line with EU directives.
  • There is the risk of a reduction in the prices of call termination from countries of the Western Balkans at the beginning of 2023, which will result in the partial loss of revenues.
  • The war in Ukraine is resulting in rising energy prices, disruptions and delays in the supply chain, and higher prices of goods and services.

The company is strengthening security systems and the security culture with the aim of providing services and protecting data due to cyber threats. It is also increasing inventory levels and searching for alternative supply sources.

SECOND QUARTER

APRIL

• As part of the continued development of its mobile network, Telekom Slovenije will gradually halt the use of the third generation (3G) mobile network by 30 September 2022. The Company began using 3G or UMTS technology for voice communication and data transfer nearly 20 years ago. Today, the data transfer speeds facilitated by that technology are significantly slower than those facilitated by more advanced and energy and technologically efficient fourth (LTE/4G) and fifth (5G) generation mobile technologies, which are used for 99% of mobile traffic in Telekom Slovenije's network. For this reason, the gradual halting of the use of 3G technology is an integral element of the Company's sustainable operations, and the technological and developmental optimisation of its mobile network.

MAY

• Telekom Slovenije received a counterclaim that was lodged against Telekom Slovenije, d.d., by POP TV d.o.o. Ljubljana and Kanal A d.o.o. for the payment of damages in the amount of EUR 58,154,012.16 with interest and other charges. The claim is said to represent the damage that the plaintiffs have said to have suffered as a result of insufficient payments for the distribution fee for TV channels in the period from 16 February 2017 to 31 March 2022. The received counterclaim was lodged as a response to the lawsuit that Telekom Slovenije, d.d., lodged against POP TV d.o.o. Ljubljana and Kanal A d.o.o. on 29 December 2021 for nullifying parts of the agreement and overpaid distribution fee for TV channels of the two companies (the value of the dispute: EUR 12,346,337.52). Telekom Slovenije, d.d., shall respond to the counterclaim within the legal deadline.

7. CONDENSED INTERIM ACCOUNTING REPORT OF THE TELEKOM SLOVENIJE GROUP AND TELEKOM SLOVENIJE, D. D. FOR THE PERIOD JANUARY TO MARCH 2022

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 2022 were compiled in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, and must be read together with the financial statements and disclosures compiled for the 2021 financial year. The financial statements for the period January–March 2022 and the comparable period January–March 2021 are unaudited, while the financial statements for the comparable period ending 31 December 2021 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 2021.

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.

COVID-19 pandemic

In accordance with the Act Determining Intervention Measures to Contain the COVID-19 Epidemic and Mitigate its Consequences for Citizens and the Economy, the Telekom Slovenije Group took advantage of individual state aid measures in the period January to March 2022, as follows:

  • the following companies took advantage of the reimbursement of compensation for short-term absences from work of up to three days due to COVID-19 covered by the employer: Telekom Slovenije, GVO, Avtenta and TSmedia, in the total amount of EUR 6 thousand;
  • the following companies took advantage of the reimbursement of wage compensation for the period a worker did not perform their work due to force majeure: Telekom Slovenije, GVO, Avtenta, TSmedia and Soline, in the total amount of EUR 10 thousand;

the following companies took advantage of the reimbursement of compensation for the period of quarantine: Telekom Slovenije, GVO, TSinpo and Soline, in the total amount of EUR 23 thousand.

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.

Total revenue 151,162 156,768 134,885 142,243

The revenues of the Telekom Slovenije Group amounted to EUR 151.2 million in the period January–March 2022, a decrease of EUR 5.6 million relative to the same period in 2021.

Revenues were down in the mobile segment of the end-user market primarily due to the optimisation of subscribers whose basic subscription fee includes an increasing number of services, and on account of lower revenues from the sale of mobile merchandise, which also results in lower costs.

Revenues were lower in the fixed segment of the end-user market, primarily due to a decline in revenues from traditional voice telephony, as the result of the falling number of traditional connections, and lower revenues from the sale of fixed merchandise, which at the same time results in lower costs.

Revenues from additional services include revenues from financial services, energy, eHealth services and insurance. Revenues were lower during the first quarter 2022 primarily on account of the discontinuation of the supply of electricity to end-customers.

Revenues on the wholesale market were down relative to the same period in 2021, primarily due to lower revenues from international voice services.

Other operating income and merchandise were up relative to the same period in 2021 due to higher revenues generated by subsidiaries on the market.

Revenues from leases

The Telekom Slovenije Group generated revenues from leases in the amount of EUR 2,589 thousand in the period January–March 2022, compared with EUR 2,156 thousand during the same period last year.

Telekom Slovenije generated revenues from leases in the amount of EUR 2,790 thousand in that period, compared with EUR 2,352 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 Telekom Slovenije Group and Company 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 159,024 thousand as at 31 March 2022, a decrease of EUR 7,172 thousand relative to the end of 2021. 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, whose turnover is usually two-way, thereby reducing net credit exposure. We assess that there is no significant credit risk concentration in relation to an individual client or sector.

Group companies have introduced procedures for managing receivables, which include monitoring business partners' credit rating, the collateralisation of receivables, the monitoring of the high turnover of subscribers and recovery. The recovery procedure is conducted according to a pre-defined timeline (reminders and disconnection) and through specialised outsourced service providers. Telekom Slovenije requires prior authorisation 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 postpaid 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.

Trade receivables within the Group are classified to the appropriate maturity buckets. Expected credit losses for receivables within the Group are taken into account at the same rate applied to other receivables.

Non-current trade receivables are outstanding in full.

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. The 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.

The Group is also exposed to risk in relation to receivables from loans to employees and to investments in short-term deposits. Lending risk is low, as these loan repayments are mostly settled through payroll, while risk in connection with deposits is managed by monitoring the credit ratings of individual banks.

Telekom Slovenije is exposed to credit risk arising from receivables from loans granted to subsidiaries. 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. It additionally manages the aforementioned risk using various collateral instruments in loan agreements, and regularly monitors the coverage of investments by collateral.

Solvency risk

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.

Debt is relatively low at the level of the Group and Company. The majority of the financial liabilities of the Group and the Company as at 31 March 2022 relate to two long-term syndicated loans in the total amount of EUR 309.9 million, a long-term loan in the amount of EUR 40 million from the European Investment Bank, and lease liabilities in the amount of EUR 67 million at the Group level and EUR 76.1 million at the Company level. The Group and Company regularly repay their liabilities from financing.

For the purpose of ensuring a high level of liquidity, the Group has open short-term credit lines at banks that are rolled over taking into account envisaged needs. Liquidity reserves amounted to EUR 74 million at the end of the first quarter of 2022, and took the form of approved but undrawn short-term revolving credit lines. Telekom Slovenije also has open revolving credit lines at subsidiaries, so that its total liquidity reserves in the form of undrawn credit lines amounted to EUR 82.66 million at the end of the first quarter. The undrawn portion of a long-term loan from the European Investment Bank in the amount of EUR 60 million is also at the Company' disposal and can be drawn down until the end of 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 2022 derives from a potential change in the EURIBOR reference interest rate linked to interest-sensitive liabilities.

Liabilities from loans raised with variable interest rates tied to the 6-month EURIBOR accounted for 74.3% of the Group's interest-bearing financial liabilities and 72.7% of the Company's interest-bearing financial liabilities as at 31 March 2022. The remaining liabilities are accounted for by loans raised and a lease with a fixed interest rate.

The Group and Company entered into an interest rate swap in the amount of 50% of one of three loan tranches with the aim of hedging exposure to interest rate risk as the result of a long-term syndicated loan with a final repayment deadline of 31 December 2025. The amount of the secured principal stood at EUR 11.5 million as at 31 March 2022. By hedging interest rate exposure through the use of an interest rate swap (IRS), the Group and Company hedge future cash flows against the risk of rising interest rates. The principal is hedged against a rise in the reference interest rate if the latter is higher than or equal to zero. Fixed or hedged interest rates account for 28.4% of interest-bearing financial liabilities at the Group level and 30.0% at the Company level.
