The purpose of the Rules is to enable the persons to trade in shares of Luka koper and to prevent any possible trading based on insider information. At the same time, the Rules enable mandatory reporting in accordance with the law on the sale and purchase of company's shares to the Securities Market Agency.

12 Risk management

In 2019, the activities related to risk management continued, since besides the regular monitoring of the risk exposure, we implemented several risk mitigation measures.

A project team, which will commence the implementantion of activities focused on the increase of traffic fluidity on the existing railway infrastructure, was set up in order to minimise the strataegic risks related to the capacity and rail traffic fluidity. On January 24, 2019, the Government unanimously adopted the investment programme for the second track Divača-Koper railway line project, i which the completion of the construction of the second railway track is expected in 2025. In March 2019, started the construction of the access roads to the track layout of the second railway track, as from March 1, Luka Koper started to pay the transhipment fee, which will be intended for the financing of the project and will in 2019 burdened the operating profit in the amount of EUR 5.7 million.

The activities related to the risk management connected to the implementation of key investment projects, have been continuing. In 2019, the implementation works for the Sermin entrance to the Port of Koper, which will relieve the main traffic routes toward the port, increase the traffic flow in the Port and reduce the freight traffic in the town centre, were completed. New gate will be officialy opened on May 10. The activities related to the implementation of other projects continue. In this respect, two projects are of key importance, and namely the extension of the Pier I, for which the contract for supply and driving of test piles was awarded, and the construction of the RO-RO berth, also for which the contract was awarded.

In the first quarter, the activities of the establishment of a new business model of the implementaion of port's services, which will reduce the related risks, continued. Until 14 May 2019, 291 persons were directly employed within the tier I, within the tier II, the public tender for the selection of recruitment agencies for the provision of workers for the performance of the port's activity is in progress. In relation to the tier III comprising the cooperation with external contracting companies, two public tenders for the selection of external contractors for industrial cleaning were implemented. The contract was awarded for the tier I, whereas for the second set, the competitive dialogue will continue. Simoultaneosuly, preparatory works for publication of the public tender for the performance cars transport service and additional services at the PC Car Terminal and Ro-Ro ter PC General cargoes, are in course.

With aim to reduce the risk of exceeding statutory set up noise threshold values toward the centre of Koper, which may be produced during the piles driving within the extension of the Pier I or excessive noise produced during the performance of the activity, a noise abetement plan was drawn up, whis is also being carried out. In 2018, the amended Decree on limit values for environmental noise indicators (official Gazette of the Republic of Slovenia, No. 43/18) came into force, and on the basis of which, on February 28, 2019 the company

received a decision on the amendment of the environmental permit related to the noise emissions in the environment, and due to which the risk remains at an acceptable level.

Among the financial risks we recognise risk relating to change in fair value, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, currency and credit risk and risk relating to adequate capital structure. In January 2018, Luka Koper, d. d., started and in January 2019 completed the refinancing of long-term loans. By refinancing part of its loans, the Company has prolonged the maturity of its sources of funds, while also replacing part of its variable-rate sources of funds with fixed interest rate sources, whereby an adequate ratio between cost efficiency and interest risk management was established.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

13 Natural environment

Luka Koper has always taken care for the improvement of the quality of life in the whole area where the port is embedded. Besides the statutory compliance and the compliance with authorisations, objective and regular assessment of performance of such systems, provision of information about environmental performance, open dialogue with public and interested parties, and active involvement of employees. All employees in Luka Koper, d. d., and meanwhile the responsible staff for the maintenance of the established system take credit for the maintenance of the highest environmental standard. In connection with the development issues, the company takes into consideration principles of sustainable development and responsible environmental management.

13.1 Care for the environment

Being aware that the port's impacts on the envirronment occur, Luka Koper, d. d., committed itself in its business policy to the sound environmental management wishing to preserve for future generations. Monitoring and management of environmental impacts has so become the part of regular working activities, whereby Luka Koper, d. d., cooperates with competent authorities.

The most important goals in the area of natural environment in 2019:

  • To successfully carry out the audit in compliance with EMAS requirements;
  • First certification fort he standard SIST ISO 50001,
  • To reduce emissions of dust at all ten port's locations to 250 mg/m2day and max 5 deviations from 120/th measurements in the course of the year,
    • To keep the value of PM10 particles (the size up to 10 μm) emissions below 30 μ g/m3 in the entire Port's area(in direction towards Ankaran, Koper and Bertoki Bertoki),
  • To keep the percentage of separately collected waste above 89 percent,
  • To drecrease night-time noise to 48 dBA in the direction of Koper,
  • To keep the daily-time noise level to 58 dB in front of closest buildings outside the Port's area and the night-time to 53 dB,
  • To modernise the drainage at the Dry Bulk Terminal and the modernisation of the treatment plant at the Livestock Terminal and to replace some oil interceptors,

  • To keep specific consumption of energy at the last year level, despite the increased throughput and enlarged storage areas and namely for motor fuel 0,245l/t, for electric energy 1.17 kWh/t, potable water 6.4 l/t,

  • Without taking actions (inspection and internal) in environmental interventions,
  • Without pollution outside the Port's aquatorium,
  • To ensure an efficient and adequate system of the supply with water for fire extinguishing in the port's area and the provision of an adequate provision of firefighting for specific buildings.

13.2 EMAS certificate

As early as in 2010, Luka Koper, d. d., was awarded the most important environmental certificate EMAS (SI 00004). At the end of 2017, the certificate could not be renewed due to the received inspection decision on the excess noise in the direction of Koper. The inspection was completed in May 2019. Recertification is expected in summer 2019.

13.3 Atmosphere

Striving for a constant reduction in emissions that are produced by the performance of port activities involves many activities. The most important measures for the reduction in dusting are the introduced technology of applying paper mill sludge to the coal and iron ore disposal area. Paper mill sludge builds a solid layer that prevents drifting of dust.

13.3.1 Quantity of health hazardous dust particles (PM10)

Control measurements of the total volume of dust carried by Luka Koper, d. d., yet from 2002 on ten measurement points in the Port. Wechave set the annual goal not to exceede 200 mg/m2day and the average of measurement values for the reported period is 123 mg/m2day. In January – March 2019, the company did not record any deviation. The law does not prescribe limit values resp. permitted deviations for such measurements.

13.3.2 Quantity of health hazardous dust particles (PM10)

Statutory prescribed measurements of fine dust particles (PM10), are carried out by an authorised organisation and are continuously measured on three points within the Port. The measurements taken in the first half of 2018 were below the target value 30 μg/m3 and statutory set up volume of 40 μg/m3. The results from two measurement devices are shown automatically every hour on the Port's web page online Living with the Port www.zivetispristaniscem.si.

Comparison of mean valus of PM10, January – March 2018 and 2019

13.3.3 Emissions of dust particles on key sources

Since the permitted values of dust particles emissions of key sources are stipulated by law, we perform measurements in the direct vicinity of dust-generating sources (e.g. at loading/unloading of wagons, trucks and ships). The threshold of permitted value of emissions is 20 mg/m3. The company has not yet performed the statutory measurements for 2019.

13.4 Waste management

Various types of waste are generated in the Port of Koper. . In terms of the committment for the environment, Luka Koper,d. d., regularly provides for waste separation, recycling and waste processing. The waste separation is carried out at all terminals, by the users of the economic zone and on ships. Separately collected waste materials are delivered to external waste-processing contractors and agents, whereas organic waste is processed at the composting plant in the port. Luka Koper, d. d., also collaborates with external companies in relation to waste processing.

In the first quarter of 2019, the share of sorted separately collected waste was 91 percent and thereby the set objective of 89 percent of sorted separately collected waste was exceeded.

13.5 Noise

Noise levels are continuously monitored by devices at three peripheral points around the port, and the results are published online via the Living with the Port www.zivetispristaniscem.si.

In 2018, a new Decree on the threshold values of environmental noise came into force, on the basis of which Luka Koper, d.d. in 2019 obtained a new environmental permit setting the noise level. The results for the first quarter 2019 are in compliance with the requirements of the environmental permit and a newly adopted Decree. Despite the new decree, at Luka Koper level targets are set and determined in accordance with the previous.

13.6 Energy

First three micro solar power plants on roofs of the existing transformer stations were installed in the Port of Koper, and this is the first step toward a partial energy selfsufficiency of the port.

Within the European project GAIN4MOS, a study on safety aspects ships' supply with the liquified natural gas (LNG) in the Port of Koper, started to be made.

13.6.1 Electricity and water consumption

In 2019, the use of electrified RTG cranes increased. The advantage of the use of the electric power. The advantage of using the electric energy for driving cranes is in significantly higher effichency of machinery, low noise level and practically zero local emissions of exhaust gases. This is also the main reason for the increase of a specific use of the use of electric energy in the first quarter of 2019 in comparison with 2018. The resaon for a higher specific use of water consumption in the first three months of 2019 in comparison to the year 2018, is in slightly higher absolute water consumption.

Motor fuel consumption (l/t) 0,127 0,121 95
Potable water consumption (l/t) 3,31 3,88 117

Electricity consumption

The major consumers of the electric power in the port are the Container terminal and Bulk cargoes terminal. Among major consumers in the port are primarily quay cranes, food stuff, cold storage rooms at the Reefer teminal, conveyor belts for the transshipment of the dry bulk cargo, lighting and power supply to the reefer containers. In the first quarter of 2019, the company did not achieve the target value of specific electric energy consumption.

Motor fuel consumption

A lot of ground mechanisation, powered by diesel is used in the port's working processes.. The major consumers are terminal tractors, which on average consume 47 percent of motor

20 Total throughput = maritime throughput + stuffing/unstuffing of containers + kopenski throughput

fuel, followed by rubber tyred gantry cranes RTG, reach stackers, railway track vehicles, forklifts and tractors. In January - March 2019, the major consumer of the motor fuel was the the Container terminal, which consumed 59 percent of the motor fuel. In the first quarter of 2019, the company achieved the target value of specific consumption of the motor fuel.

Water

The company pays a great attention to the water as a vital good and for this reason numerous safety and treatment actions are implemented. Since the water is used mainly for sanitary purposes and for supply of vessels, the concern for an adequate purity of water is important. In the first quarter of 2019, the company did not achieve target value of specific water consumption.

Potable water

The consumption of the potable water does not depend directly on the throughput. Due to a growing occupancy of the port and large number of trucks,as well as transport equipment, additional leakeages on the water distribution network occur. In the first quarter of 2019, measurements of the quality of the potable water within the port's network were carried out. At the Cruise terminal, and the results were in compliance with the law.

Waste waters

In the port mainly urban waste waters are generated and to a lower extent industrial waste waters. Generated industrial waste waters are prior to the discharge adequately treated in own waste water treatment plants, urban waste waters are mainly treated in the Koper central waste treatment plant. In the first quarter of 2019, the authorised operator has not yet carried out the sampling of waste waters.

13.7 Effect of the lighting

The lighting in the port'area is in line with regulations and in a way that a light is not directed upwards. The lighting plan is published on the company's website https://www.lukakp.si/slo/zakonodaja-in-okolje-200 .

13.8 Marine protection

Pursuant to the provisions of the Concession Agreement for the performance of port activity, management, development and regular maintenance of port's infrastructure in the Koper's cargo port area, Luka Koper, d.d. regularly takes care to prevent and remove the consequences of the sea pollution. To carry out such actvities we need special equipment, boats

and skilled staff. We therefore regularly train the staff, provide training and drills. In exceptional events at sea Luka Koper, d. d., takes measures in compliance with the valid Protection and rescuing plan of Luka Koper, d. d., in case of industrial accidents.

In January - March 2019, 15 incidents were recorded in the port's aquatorium. In all cases of pollution at sea, measures were taken in accordance to the activation scheme of forces and ressources for minor accident, and the consequences of pollution were successfully dealt with within the concession area.

13.3 Recruitment, turnover rate and employment structure

As at 31 March 2019, the Luka Koper Group had 1.558 employees, which is 452 more than as at 31 March 2018, and which is 41-percent increase. Intensive growth of number of employees results from the changes of the business model resp. introduction of the threetier model rtelated to the implementation of the port service provision strategy in the company Luka Koper, d. d.

In the first quarter of 2019, 325 employees were recruited in Luka Koper Group, which is 310 employments more than in the comparable period of the previous year. 76 percent of new employments result from the process of implementation of the port service provision strategy.

The number of departures from Luka Koper Group was significantly lower than in the same period last year. Among the reasons of the termination of the employment relationship prevail the retirements on the ground of age, to the minor extent consensual terminations of employment , in one case the employee's death.

Consequently, the staff turnover in Luka Koper Group in the first quarter of 2019, was low resp. significantly lower than in 2018.

14.1 Occupational health and safety

Health and safety at work in accordance with the guidelines of the BS OHSAS 18001 of Luka Koper, d. d., are approved by internal and external audits. Likewise, the modification of the internal standard ISO 45001 are followed through various external trainings in order to be prepared for the transition when the standard is approved.

The company is striving to implement preventive actions with trainings, additional education, raising of the awareness of employees' and other persons present in the port. Each severe and recurrent injury is examined and adequate actions are taken in order to prevent any recurrence of similar incidents.

In the first quarter of 2019, there was no serious injury at work and no collective injury at work in the port's area, so the objective of zero serious occupational injuries for now has been achieved. No major material damage was recorded in the reporting period.

14.2 Education, training and development of employees

In the first quarter of 2019, Luka Koper Group provided on average higher number of hours of training than in the equivalent period last year and namely 5.9 hours of training per employee in Luka Koper Group resp. 6.4 hours in Luka Koper, d. d. The higher number of training is attributable to the intensive recruitment of workers involved in jobs in the basis throughput process and their training resp. opertation of different types of machinery. 95 percent of training was in-house training, mainly operation of machinery, IMSBC (international legislation on safe transport of solid bulk cargo), quality standards, public procurement legislation, safe work at height.

39 percent of employees in Luka Koper Group resp. 40 percent of employees in Luka Koper d. d . were involved in the training.

Through the training agreement Luka Koper Group co-funds almost one percent of employees with aim to obtain a higher level of education resp. specific educational training. Luka Koper, d. d., allocated one scholarship for the academic year 2018/19.

In the first quarter of 2019, in Luka Koper Group recorded greater internal mobility of employees than in the comparable period last year.

Statement of compliance

The interim Report has been compiled in accordance with the International Accounting standards 34 – Interim Financial Reporting. The company's financial statements have been compiled in accordance with International Reporting Standards as adopted by the International Accounting Standards (IASB) and European Union and in compliance with Companies Act RS.

Basis for the compilation of financial statements

The financial statements are compiled in euros (EUR), rounded to the nearest unit. Through these consolidated financial statements the company wants to provide the broadest sphere of users useful information on the company's performance from January – March 2019, in comparison with the comparable

data for the previous year, together with the company's financial position as at 31 March 2019 in comparison with 31 December 2018.

Financial statements of Luka Koper, d. d. and consolidated financial statements of Luka Koper Group for the reporting period January – March 2019 are not audited, whilst they were audited for the comparable period as at 31 December 2018.

Use of estimates and judgements

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs)requires the management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Estimates are formed based on past experience and expectations in the accounting period.

Estimates, judgements and assumptions are reviewed on a regular basis. Actual results may differ from these situations, hence estimates and underlying assumptions are are reviewed on a regular basis. Chnages in accounting estimates are recognised in the period for which the estimates are modified, or in the coming periods that are impactzed by respective changes.

Changes in accounting policies

The non-audited financial statements of the Luka Koper, d. d. for the reporting period are compiled in accordance with the same accounting policies and principles that were applicable in 2018, except for the following changes:

IFRS 16 – Leases

On 1 January Luka Koper, d.d. and the Luka Koper Group started to apply the standard IFRS 16 – Leases which replaces the standard IFRS 17.

The scope of application of IFRS 16 comprises leases of all assets with a few exceptions. Pursuant to the standard, lessees should recognise all leases through profit and loss under a single lessee accounting model without making a distinction between an opertaing or finance lease, in the same manner that finance leases are recognised pursuant to IAS 17. IFRS16 supersedes IAS 17 – Leases and related interpretations. The standard allows to two exemptions in recognising assets, i.e. when the underlying asset is of low value (such as personal computers) and short-term leases (leases with a term of 12 or less than 12 months). As at the date of the beginning of lease, the lessee is required to recognise the obligation to make lease payments (i.e. a lease liability) and the asset representing the right to use the underlying leased asset for the duration of the lease (i.e. a right-of-use asset).

Under IFRS 16, the contract contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identied asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Lesses shall recognise separately interest expense with respect to the lease liability and depreciation costs fromthe right-of-use asset. The right-of-use asset is depreciated, and interest is added to the liabilities. This results in a concentrated pattern of expense for most leases, even if the lessee pays a fixed annual rent. If certain events should occur (such as changes in the lease period, changes in the value of future lease paymentsdue to variations in the

index or rate, based on which lease payment is determined), lesses shall have to remeasure the lease liability).In general, lessees recognise the remeasurement value of lease liability as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset.

The introduction of the new standard will not substantially change the lease accounting fort he lessor's perspective, the distinstion between the operating lease and the finance lease remains in force.

For the lessor, accounting requirements are not considerably different from those in force under IAS 17.

The IFRS 16 Standard is applicable to annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The lessee may decide to apply the standard retroactively in ful or in a part. Transitional provisions of the Standard allow for certain facilitating measures. Earlier application is permitted, but only if the company has already applied IFRS 15.

The Company/the Group has examined and analysed all lease contracts. The standard allows for exemptions in the recognition of leases, i.e. for leases with a lease term of 12 months or less, and for leases where the underlying asset has a low value. The Company/the Group has decided to apply exemptions and thus accounts for lease payments as an expense also in 2019. There are two possible transitions to the new standard; the Company/theGroup has opted for transition without affecting its statement of financial position (modified retrospective method) and implemented the standard as at 1 January 2019.

Based on analysis results, the Company estimated the values of the right-of-use and lease liability. Values of the right-of-use and lease liability have been estimated by discounting the future cash flows for the period of lease. Cash flows are discounted based on a pondered interest rate realised by the Company when raising non-current loans. Depreciation resulting from the right-of-use is calculated based on the remaining lease term.

The impact of IFRS 16 on consolidated financial statements of Luka Koper, d. d./Luka Koper Group in January – March 2019:

Financial instruments and financial risk management

Financial risks comprise:

    1. risk management of the change in fair value,
    1. management of interest rate,
    1. management of liquidity risk,
    1. management of currency risk
    1. management of credit risk, and
    1. risk management relating to adequate capital structure.

The company's /Group's management of financial risks has been organised within the finance and accounting department, since the accounting for subsidiaries is carried out within Luka Koper d.d. .The specifics of the existing economic environment make forecasting future financial categories even more demanding and introduce into the plans a higher degree of unpredictability and, consequently, higher level of risk. The company /Group has consequently tightened the control over individual financial categories.

1. Risk management relating to change in fair value

Luka Koper, d. d.

As at 31 March 2019, Luka Koper, d. d. had invested 5.4 percent of its assets (at the end of the previous year 5.7 percent) in investments measured at fair value through the comprehensive income. The fair value risk associated with these investments is demonstrated through changes in stock market that affect the value of these assets and, consequently the potential gain on their disposal, whereas with investments in shares of other companies there is a risk for the sales value not to equal the value of the market transaction. This type of risk has been recognised with regard to investments in market securities of Slovenian companies and to investments in shares and interests.

As at 31 March 2019, the value of non-current investments at fair value amounted to EUR 31,298,649.

Risk of change at fair value of securities as at 31 December 2018

The sensitivity analysis of investments at fair value was based on the assumption of a 10 percent increase in the fair value of the index and accordingly such growth would result in an increase in the fair value of the market securities portfolio by EUR 3,129,865. A 10 percent decrease in the comparable class would have the opposite effect, reducing the fair value of these investments by the same amount.

If this was the case, the amount of the difference in fair value would be recognised as either an increase or decrease in other comprehensive income within equity for investments into securities, and within profit or loss for investments into other companies.

As at 31 March 2019, had invested 5.9 percent of its assets (as at 31 December 2018, 6.2 percent) in investments measured at fair value through the comprehensive income. The fair value risk associated with these investments is demonstrated through changes in stock

market that affect the value of these assets and, consequently the potential gain on their disposal, whereas with investments in shares of other companies there is a risk for the sales value not to equal the value of the market transaction. This type of risk has been recognised with regard to investments in market securities of Slovenian companies and to investments in shares and interests.

As at 31 March 2019, the value of non-current investments at fair value amounted to EUR 35.237.547.

If this was the case, the amount of the difference in fair value would be recognised as either an increase or decrease in other comprehensive income within equity for investments into securities, and within profit or loss for investments into other companies.

2. Management of interest rate risk

With respect to its liabilities, the Company/Group also faces interest rate risk as an unexpected growth in variable interest rates can have an adverse effect on the planned results.

Luka Koper, d. d.

In the overall structure of liabilities, the share of financial liabilities (without other liabilities) increased from 19.4 percent in 2018 to 20.1 percent as at 31 March 2019. The effect of variable interest rate changes on future profit or loss after taxes is shown in the table below.

Possible interest rate fluctuations would consequently have an impact on 48.6 percent (as at 31 December 2018, this share amounted to 85.1 percent) of the Company's total borrowings. The remaining 51.4 percent of borrowings were concluded with a fixed interest rate.

Sensitivity analysis of borrowings from banks in view of the variable interest rate:

The sensitivity analysis of borrowings from banks in view of the variable interest rates was based on the assumption of potential growth in interest rates of 15, 25 and 50 bp. Given the assumption that the variable interest rates of 15 bp reso. 25 bp, the interest expense in view of unchanged borrowing would grow by EUR 114.754. In the event of variable interest rates of 50 bp, the interest expense would increase by EUR 194.765.

4. Management of currency risk

The risk of changes in foreign exchange rates arises from trade receivables denominated in US dollars (USD). In recent years, the Company/Group has succeeded in achieving significantly lower accrued income in US dollars to the extent that US dollars denominated receivables are negligible, based on which the Company/Group has opted not to hedge this item.

5. Management of credit risk

Management of the risk of default on the side of the counterparty or the credit risk has gained in importance in recent years. Customer deafults are being passed on to economic entities, much like a chain reaction, which significantly reduces the assessed probability of timely inflows and increases additional costs of financing the operation. Accordingly, the

Company/ the Group has acceleerated collevtion-related activities in the past years and more consistently monitored trade receivables past due.In case of customers, regarding whom the Company/Group detects late payments and inconsistency in observing adopted business agreements, and advance payment system is set up for all ordered services with the aim of avoiding the late payments. This area is positvely impacted by the specific structure of the Company's/Group's customers, who are predominantly major companies, freight forwarders and forwarding agents that have been the Company's/Group's business partners for a number of years.

Certain Company's/Group's receivables have been secured with collaterals, which are returned to the customers once all obligations have been settled or cooperation has been terminated. Investments include loans, which are secured with blank bills of exchange and other movable and immovable property.
