• Evaluation was done with sufficient prudence:
  • The Financial Statements include solely the profit gained until the balance sheet date,
  • All expected risk amounts and losses have been taken into account, which occurred during the reporting year or in previous years, also if they were known during a certain period of time between the balance sheets date and the day of preparing the Financial Statements,

• all items have been recognized, which materially influence assessment or decision-making process of the users of the annual report, insignificant items are merged and they are detailed in the Appendix;

Financial instruments

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities reflect the amount, for which it is possible to exchange assets or perform liabilities in a deal between well informed, interested and financially independent persons. If in the Company's management opinion, fair value of financial assets and liabilities materially differs from the value recognized in the balance sheet, then the fair value of these assets and liabilities is recognized in the Notes to the Financial Statements.

Financial risks management

Credit risk

The Company's management has developed credit policy, which is constantly controlled. Client evaluation is done for all customers above a fixed amount. The Company cooperates with clients who have proper credit assessment.

Currency risk

Based on the current structure of Company's financial assets and liabilities held in foreign currencies, the currency risk is not material.

Reporting period

The reporting period is six months from 1 January to 30 June 2015.

Revaluation of foreign currencies

The Company's functional currency and the currency used in the Financial Statements is euro (EUR) – the sole legal mean of payment in the Republic of Latvia since January 1, 2014. All transactions in foreign currencies are converted into euro according to the euro foreign exchange reference rate published by the European Central Bank on the day of particular transaction being performed.

Monetary assets and liabilities, which are shown in foreign currencies, are converted into euro according to the fixed euro foreign exchange reference rate published by the European Central Bank on the last day of the reporting period.

	30.06.2015	30.06.2014
USD	1.11890	1.3658

Currency exchange rate differences arising from settlements in currencies or when recognizing assets and liabilities by using currency exchange rates, which differ from the initial currency exchange rates used for accounting of transactions, are recognized in the profit or loss account in net value.

Recognition of income

Income is recognized according to the conviction about the Company's possibility to gain economic benefit and in the amount, in which it is possible to state it, less value added tax and sales-related discounts. When recognizing income, also the following provisions are taken into account.

Sale of goods

Income is recognized when the Company has transferred to the purchaser major risks and indemnities related to the title of goods.

Provision of services

Income from services is recognized in the period when the services are provided.

Penalty and delay charges

Income from penalty and delay charges is recognized at the moment of their receipt.

Interest

Income is recognized according to the respective period of time.

Long-term and short-term items

Long-term items include amounts whose receipt, payments or write-off terms are due later after the end of the respective reporting year. Amounts, which are receivable, payable or written off during the year, are recognized in short-term items.

Leasing transactions

Financial leasing

In cases when fixed assets are purchased on the conditions of financial leasing and the related risks and return are taken over, these fixed assets are recognized in the value, for which they could be purchased with immediate payment. Leasing interest payments and similar payments are included in the profit or loss account of that period when they occurred.

Intangible assets and fixed assets

In the balance sheet, all intangible assets and fixed assets are reflected at their purchase prices, less depreciation. Depreciation is calculated from the first date of the next month after their commissioning and finished on the first date of the subsequent month after it is excluded from fixed assets. Depreciation is calculated according to the straight line method and is written off during the useful life time of respective fixed assets by choosing the following annual depreciation rates as fixed by the management:

Intangible assets:

Licenses	5 years
Fixed assets:
Buildings and constructions	10, 20, 25, 40 and 59 years
Equipment and machinery	5, 6 and 7 years
Computer hardware and communication equipment	5 years
Inventory and tools	3 and 5 years
Other fixed assets	2 and 3 years

Balances of fixed assets have been counted in the annual count of fixed assets.

Investment properties

Investment properties – land in possession of the stock company, which market value is expected to grow. Investment properties have been filed according to their purchase value. No later than on the end of the year of account the investments properties are being revalued according to their real market value considering any other activities related to particular property. Any changes in the market value of the investments properties are being shown in the profit and loss account.

Biological assets

Biological assets are assets, which are characterized by regeneration and changes in value as a result of growth. The Company in biological assets includes breeding animals – bulls, which are kept for getting agricultural products for sale. Biological assets are recognized in the purchase value.

Stock

Stock is recognized in the lowest cost or net sales value. All stock is assessed by using the average weighted method.

Net sales value is the sales price of stock fixed during normal Company's operations, less the stock completion and selling costs. In cases when the stock net selling value is lower than their cost price, provisions are made for these stocks for decrease of their value down to the net sales value.

All direct costs, which are related to production of breeding animals - bull semen, during the year are booked in the profit or loss account and are adjusted at the end of the year when evaluating stocks according to the lowest sales value or cost price and including them in stocks as "Ready-made goods and goods for sale".

Trade receivables and other receivables

Receivables are recognized in the balance sheet in the amortized value, less provisions for doubtful and bad debts. Provisions for doubtful and bad debts are made in cases when there is objective evidence to the fact that the Company will not be able to receive the debts in full value according to the initially fixed repayment dates. Provisions for doubtful and bad debts are the difference between the amortized purchase value of receivables and the recoverable value. The recoverable value of receivables is the current value of planned cash flow.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has liabilities (legal or substantial) due to some past event and there is a probability that the performance of these liabilities will require outflow of economic resources from the Company, and the amount of liabilities can be fairly assessed.

Corporate income tax

Corporate income tax for the reporting period consists of the tax calculated for the reporting period and deferred tax. Corporate income tax is recognized in the profit or loss account.

Calculated tax

The tax calculated for the reporting period has been calculated in compliance with the requirements of the Law "On Corporate Income Tax" by fixing the taxable income and applying the statutory rate of 15%.

Deferred tax

Deferred corporate income tax is calculated for temporary time differences, which are caused due to differences in the value of assets and liabilities in the financial statements (book-keeping) and its value for tax purposes. The mentioned differences are mainly due to different fixed assets depreciation rates applied in tax and financial accounting, provisions made and losses transferred according to the Company's income tax declaration. Deferred tax is calculated by applying the statutory tax rate 15%.

Subsidies

Amounts, which are received as a state support for agricultural, i.e., for covering of expenses for maintaining high-quality breed bulls, are included in the income of that reporting period when they are received.

Use of assumptions

When preparing the financial statements, the Company's management has to make calculations and assumptions, which impact recognition of assets and liabilities included in the financial statements as at the day of preparing the financial statements, as well as the income and expenses recognized in the specific reporting period. Management has made profit or loss assessment and considers that the financial statements reflect the true financial condition based on all currently available information.

(3) Net sales

Sales include income gained during the year from the Company's basic activities – sales of products and provision of services without value added tax and less discounts.
