7.3 Forecast of net revenue from sale of Luka Koper, d. d. in 2017 16

Luka Koper Group estimates that net revenue until the end of 2017 would expectedly exceed the planned by 3 percent and the net revenue from sale achieved in 2016 by 8 percent, whilst the revenue from the performance of the public utility service of the regular maintenance of the port's infrastructure, destined to the public transport, would be legged behind the plan by 48 percent resp. by EUR 7 million and by 2 percent behind the net revenue achieved in 2016. The revenue from the performance of the public utility service of the regular maintenance of the port's infrastructure, destined to the public transport, will be lower than planned due to the lower volume of maintenance, since the plan of the regular maintenance of the port's infrastructure has still not been approved by the Ministry of Infrastructure.

Based on current projections, Luka Koper estimates that the net revenue from sale in 2017 will expectedly amount to EUR 214 million and will be 1 percent below the planned level, primarily due to the lower volume of the performance of the public utility service of the regular maintenance of the port's infrastructure, destined to the public transport, and at the same time higher by 7 percent than the achieved in 2016. The company does not estimates other imapcts on the net operating profit of Luka Koper Group, except changes in the volume of throughput and thereby the net revenue from sale.

16 The forecast is based on the current expectations and is subject to risks and uncertainities, which may have have an impact on actual results and may materially differ due to various factors, over some of these Luka Koper Group has no control. These factors include, but they are not necessarily limited to the following: customers' demand and market conditions in markets where operate final consignees of goods, transshiped through the Port of Koper, relevant losses or a decline of key customers' business, political unstability and unfavourable economic conditions in countries of provenance and countries of destination of goods handled in the the Port of Koper, competition pressure to reduce the prices, limited storage capacities due to delayed obtainment of adequate consents from the competent authorities, high occupancy of stacking areas and therefore lower productivity and higher operating cost due to additional shifts of goods, unsufficient entry capacity into the port and thereby the decongestion of the the port, which is affecting the higher operating costs. In case, when one or more risks resp.uncertainties materialize or that the aforesaid assumptions show as incorrect, the actual results may materiall differ from those indicated in the notice as expected, estimated or projected. Luka Koper allows any up-dating or auditing of these forecasts as far as the future developments would differ from the expected.

In April 2017, shipping companies CMA CGM, OOCL, EVERGREEN and COSCO established a new alliance OCEAN ALLIANCE which directly connects with Far East (South Corea, China,…) with extremely short transit time. Therefore, the Port of Koper remains the first port of call for vessels' arrival and the last port for vessels's departure to the Far East. In this way. the Container terminal in the Port of Koper is twice weekly directly connected (2M Alliance & OCEAN Alliance) with the markets of the Middle East, Arabian Peninsula and Far East and in both alliances remains the first port of arrival.

Advantages and services of the Container terminal are increasingly recognised also for the import/export to the countries in the Mediterranean area, since it has been steadily growing each year.

  • new terminal tractors and empty container stackers were purchased for the need of the Container terminal,
  • further set-up of the stacking area for the needs of the Container terminal,
  • further construction of the multi-purpose warehouse.
  • several minor investments were implemented.

From the point of view of targeted energy monitoring, a measuring and communication equipment was installed in transformer stations, of which purpose is to increase the reliability of th electr energetic system of the port and an efficient monitoring of the consumption of electric energy.

10 Development activity

In January – June 2017, Luka Koper, d. d., continued dvelopment and research activities related to the Port's development, considering the trends of the line of business and longterm plans. A relevant activity outlined at the end of 2016, which has been sistematically implemented from 2017, are four strategic programmes following the company's strategic plan from 2015. Strategic programmes comprise a comprehensive range of activities, which include market and infrastructural aspect as well as process and human resources segment in order to provide adequate capacities at all levels. With respect to set strategic goals, the company olikovala four strategic programmes:

  • Increase of containers throughput,
  • Increase of cars throughput,
  • Increase of prort's decongestion,
  • Increase of containers stuffing and unstuffing, whereby opportunities for the added value logistics exist.

Due to full occupancy of the existing port's capacities, an important emphasis is still put on the faster implementation of the priority infrastructure projects and the opportunities for the obtainment of grants for their financing. The challenges also arise in new technologies, disposal and processing of sediments in order to increase and maintain the port's depths, environmental, energy and safety topics, IT issues and in any case also the novelties in the market area.

Certain activities, continuing from previous years, were held also in connection to the emphasis of the relevance of a timely construction of the second railway track on the Koper – Divača railway line, since further growth opportunities of throughput and thereby the port's development, logistic activities of the State and the international trade of hinterland countries of Central and Eastern Europe depend on its realisation. In February, the competent authorities successfully applied for the cofinancing under the programme CEF and in March the bill on a rail upgrade, which primarily defines the financing of this project was published. In June, with purpose of further financial closing, the project for the obtainment of EU funds and favourable financial resources through CEF blending call was newly submitted.

As concerns the European projects, very intensive activities were carried ou in the first half of 2017, in particular as concerns the projects within the programme CEF,whereby Luka Koper, d. d., endeavoured to cofinance concrete development challenges and infrastructure needs of the Port in the light of the implementation of EU corridor policy.

  • There were further activities related to the projects NAPA4CORE, GAINN4MOS, Fresh Food Corridors, CarEsmatic in ELEMED (Luka Koper, d.d. is the coordinator in projects NAPA4CORE, Fresh Food Corridors in CarEsmatic)
  • In February 2017, the company tendered with two new project applications (Quays4Koper, ConnectingMoS), but despite the very good quality rate of the application, the cofinancing priorities of the Republic of Slovenia and the European Union were in that occasion different and the port's projects were not selected for cofinancing. Most likely, the company will apply once again on the next occasion.

The project RCMS (Rethinking Container Management System) under the programme Obzorje 2020 was completed in January 2017, also the new project SAURON, whic pertains tthe information security, was applied for with partners, was appproved in August 2016. The implementation of the project will start in May 2017. In the first quarter of 2017, the company was active in submission of several partnership project the two-phases call for proposals Obzorja 2020, under the priority Ports of the future. These projects are targeted research projects with emphasis on innovative solutions and concepts. In accordance to the last information, two applications have been advanced in the second phase.

As concerns the projects in the territorial cooperation, where topics are slightly more regionally oriented and the cooperation is softer, with emphasis on the partnership projects, the several company's projects are has under assesment, both as concerns the programme ADRION and the programme Slovenia-Italy. The project TalkNet under the programme Central Europe, which will start the activties in the second quarter of 2017was assessed positively. In March 2017, two partnership applications were submitted for the programme Mediterranean. The projects of the European territorial cooperation are relevant, since they position Luka Koper within the European institutional setting - mainly from the point of view of planning and development of national and trans-european transport infrastructure, logistic concepts, environmental protection, security, maritime protection, sustainable energy supply, IT moderrnisation, cultural heritage and similar.

Within the European Structural Funds, the company received the approval of the partnership project of the Competency center Logistika, and which will contribute to the support of the education and development of competences. Within the framework of intelligent specialization projects, the company continued the implementation of the project RRI (Exploitment of the bio-mass potential for the development of advanced materials and biobased products), through the which Luka Koper studies the dredged sediments and the opportunity of their further use. In the second quarter, Luka Koper collaborated also in the drafting of the action plan SRIP (Strategic development innovative partnerships) Mobility which will be in the future the basis for new cofinancing of smart specialisation projects.

Also in the first quarter of 2017 Luka Koper was still striving to have responses concerning the opportunity of the actual financing co-financing of the Cruise terminal, since the project documentation is at an advanced stage and it is important Luka Koper to obtain a final response and it is important to obtain the final response about the implementation of the project. Although the company was seeking solutions by agreement with key stakeholders: Ministry of Economic Development and Technology, Ministry of Infrastructure and Municipality of Koper, there is still no positive response which would comply with legal and strategic limits of the company and the Port.

After many years, in January 2017 was adopted the Port's regulation, which will not affect the model of port's managagement and governance. As concerns the international institutional activities, in February 2017, Luka Koper, d.d., attended the meeting of the executive committee of the European Sea Ports Organisation (ESPO), in June the General Shareholders' Meeting of the European port operators and private terminals FEPORT and Corridors' forums organised by the European Union. In March, Luka Koper hosted the representatives of the European Commission for sea motorways and took over the presidency of North Adriatic Ports Association (NAPA). In June, the company accepted the invitation of the port's workers to attend the convention, held in Trieste where the attention was paid to a further successful development of the port's activity in the Northern Adriatic, in particular as concerns the job opportunities.

However, it should be emphasized that the Port of Koper is well known to the European institutional stakeholders, but the support of the State and the understanding of the port's activity is of the utmost importance for further port's development.

Endeavours for a continuous reduction of emissions, generated at the port's activities, involve several activities. Among relevant actions for the dust reduction is the introduced technology of coating the dumping area for coal and iron ore by paper mill sludge The paper mill sludge forms the crust preventing to swap away the dust.

13.3.1 Total volume of dust at the Port

Control measurements of the total volume of dust are carried Luka Koper yet from 2002 on ten measurement points in the Port . There are no legal restrictions on the quantity of dust deposits in Slovenia, nevertheless, we have set a goal not to exceede the average annual level of 250 mg/m2day . In the first half of 2017, the average of measurements values from all measuring points amounted to 86 mg/m2dan.

13.3.1 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 2017 were below the target value of 30 μg/m3and 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 values of PM10 measurements, January – June 2017 and 2016

13.3.1 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 pertmitted value of emissions is 20 mg/m3 . The company has not yet performed the statutory measurements for 2017.

13.4 Waste management

Various types of waste are generated in the Port of Koper. In terms of Luka Koper, d.d. committment for the the environment, Luka Koper regularly provides for waste separation, recycling and waste processinng. The waste separtions 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 half of 2017, we achieved 93 percent of waste separation and we exceeded the set objective of 84 percent of sorted and separately collected waste.In April, container quay crane was cut into pieces and 495 tons of iron were transported from the Port, in June additional 132 tonnes of scrap railway sleepers were transported from the Port.

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.

Level of noise 2017, with respect to the equivalent period last year towards Ankaran and Bertoki remained unchanged, whilst it increased towards Koper.

Main sources of noise in the Port of Koper nevertheless remain due to the goods handling operations and due to numerous construction sites. A significant source of noise in the port is attributable to the vessels, which due to ensuring smooth operation, must keep engines running.

13.6 Energy

In the first half of 2017, a new central lighting control system became operational, which will be progressively extended to all lighting in the Port. A new lighting systems enables the control on a single light.

Within the EU project ELEMED Luka Koper started to study the technical options of connecting vessels to the power network, while moored in the port.

13.6.1 Consumptionof energy and water

Slightly higher consumption of the motor fuel in the first half of 2017 in comparison with 2016, is mainly due to the increased throughput at the Container terminal and General cargoes terminal.

Specific consumption of energy and water per handled tonne of the total throughput 21 , January – June 2017 and 2016

1 – 6 2017 1 – 6 2016 INDEX
2017/2016
Electricity consumption ( (kWh/t) 0.649 0.622 104
Motor fuel consumption (l/t) 0.136 0.134 101
Potable water consumption (l/t) 3.55 3.26 109

Electricity consumption

In the port's activity, the mechanisation and equipment with large rated power are used and this results in a major consumption of the electric power. Among major consumers in the port are primarily quay cranes, food stuff cold storage rooms at the the Reefer terminal lighting and power supply to the reefer containers. In the first half of 2017, the largest consumer of the electric power was the Container terminal.

Motor fuel consumption

A lot of ground mechanisation, powered by diesel fuel is used in the port's working processes. The major consumers are rubber tired gantry cranes RtGs, terminal tractors, reach stackers, railway track vehicles, forklifts and tractors. In the first half of 2017, the major consumer of the motor fuel was the Container terminal.

Water

The company pays a great attention to the water as a vital good and for this reasons numerous satfety and treatment actions are implemented. Since the water is used mainly for sanitary purposes and for the supply of vessels, the concern for an adequate purity of water is important.

Potable water

The consumption of the potable water does not depend directly on the throughput. Due to a a growing occupancy of the port and a large number of trucks additional leakeges on the water distribution network occur.

Waste water

In the port mainly urban waste waters are generated and to a lower extent industrial waste water. Generated industrial waste waters and prior to the discharge they are adequately treated in own waste water treatment plants,urban waste waters mainly in the Koper central waste treatment plant. In the first half of 2017, the measurements of the industrial waste waters generated within the port have not been yet performed.

21Total throughput = maritime throughput + stuffing/unstuffing of containers + land transhipment

13.7 Effects of lighting

In accordance with regulations for safe work, Luka Koper d.d. ensures proper lighting, which is required for continuous performance of work processes. Unfortunately, the lighting, which illuminates warehousing areas, working sites, transport routes and tracks at night is the source of environmental pollution

After years of phase coordination and changes of the existing external port's lighting in accordance with the provisions of the law, the light flux is not lit up, the lighting is completed and fully harmonised.

13.8 Marine protection

Pursuant to the provisions of the Concession Agreement for the performance of port activity, management, dvelopment 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 the first half of 2017, 8 incidents were recorded in the Port's aquatorium. In all cases, measurements were taken in accordance to the activiation scheme of forces and resources for minor accident, and the consequences of pollution were successfully dealt with within the concession area.

2. Management of interest rate risk

In January - June 2017, the Company's financial liabilities increased by 11,3 percent and as at 30 June 2017 amounted to EUR 140,577,649v. The increase is not the result of the additional indebtedness, but results from the transfer of a part of retained earnings among othe current financial liabilities for dividends which will be paid out on 31 August 2017 on the basis of the decision of the General Sharholders' Meeting.

As at 30 June 2017, the percentage of financial liabilities within the total segment of liabilities amounts to 27,7 percent (as at 31 December 2016 it amounted to 26,7 percent).

The effect of the eventual change of variable interest on the future net profit after tax is shown in the table below. The interest rate hedge for a larger non-current borrowing, whose outstanding amount as at 30 June 2017 is recorded at EUR 32,704,918 matures in 2031. The eventual change of variable interest rates may consequently effect 59,6 percent of total Company's borrowings (as at 31 December 2016, this share amounted to 60,4 percent), since the remnant 40,4 percent are hedged against eventual changes of interest rates.

* The item comprises also loans from subsidiaries and associated companies

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 managed to reduce the volume of outstanding trade reeivables in US dollars to such extent, that their share is not event 1 percent of all receivables and therefore this risk is negligible from the point of vue of eventual negative effects for the company.

5. Management of credit risk

2. Management of interest rate risk

Only the parent company encounters the interest rate risk, since its financial liabilities are with variable interest rates.

As at 30 June 201, the financial liabilities of the Group amounted to EUR 124,577,753, whilst at the end of the previous business year 2016 they amounted to EUR 110,332,958. This increase results from the transfer of liabilities from reatined earnings among other current financial liabilities for payout of dividends of the parent company in the amount of EUR 19,600,000.
