Dear Shareholders, Dear Fans of Mountains,

The winter season was successful in terms of snow conditions in our mountain resorts and temperatures low enough for snowmaking. The largest increase in the visit rate was recorded in the fully modernized Polish Szczyrk Mountain Resort. The total visit rate of mountain resorts, including the newly acquired Austrian resorts Mölltaler Gletscher and Ankogel, improved by 4.9%. We have seen a drop in attendance in the Vysoké Tatry and Jasná resorts, as we are unable to meet our strategic expansion plan, especially in Vysoké Tatry, and we are faced with the competition of smaller resorts, especially in favorable snow conditions.

In the past financial year 2018/19 we grew again in revenues. The results were achieved by the organic growth of our resorts, hotels and additional services, as well as new acquisitions in Austria and the new golf segment. Total revenues increased by 17.9% to EUR 127.6 mil., and operating profit before depreciation, EBITDA, of EUR 35.5 mil. is up by 3.9%. However, due to higher operating and interest expenses, depreciation, and impairment of property we reported a net consolidated loss of EUR -2.3 mil. The summer season in the resorts has brought a visitors growth, although we have seen declines in the leisure parks. The total leisure parks' visit rate dropped by 10.9%. With the acquisition of the Alpine glacier resort of Mölltaler Gletscher and its sister Ankogel resort in Austrian Carinthia we have succeeded in fulfilling our medium-term strategic plan to expand our portfolio with a medium-sized Alpine resort. We took over the operation in May 2019 and the whole winter season will be reflected in the results of the following period.

This winter we have introduced a revolutionary flexible pricing system for ski passes, "flexi pricing", to regulate the visit rate, increase average revenue per skier day, and online client share. Thanks to the flexibility of prices we are able to quickly respond to the current demand in the mountain resorts, plan the capacity of the resorts and teach clients to buy ski passes in advance. Thanks to the flexi pricing system and online sales via Gopass Jasná Nízke Tatry grew in revenues the most.

The hotels of TMR's portfolio, especially the renovated Tatra grand hotels, had a significant impact on the results with a 15.5% increase in revenues. Grandhotel Starý Smokovec has undergone a major change and in the winter season 2018/19 welcomed guests with modernized rooms, conference room and corridors. In November 2018 the Tatra Grandhotel Praha was awarded by the Heritage Hotels of Europe Awards as the best European historical hotel in the Heritage & Wellness category and was awarded the Slovakia´s Best Ski Hotel 2018 by the World Ski Awards 2018. In the following period we can benefit from further investments and grow organically as well as develop our activities in the new segments and operations. See you on the slopes!

This year we entered the golf segment when we rented two prestigious golf resorts in the Czech Republic - Kaskáda Golf Resort and Golf & Ski Resort Ostravice for at least 20 years. We plan to develop their accommodation capacities in particular, and we want to implement the Gopass program and take advantage of group synergies.

We again organized our favorite events, both in the winter and in the summer, including the most visited Tatra attraction, Ice Dome at Hrebienok, which was built this year in the style of Vatican St Peter's Basilica. The Women's World Cup in Alpine Skiing in Špindlerův Mlýn, which we organized, had a positive audience response thanks to the participation and victory of the World Champion, Petra Vlhová.

In terms of investment in development, we invested EUR 45.3 mil. last year. Investments went to the Slovak resorts and hotels, as well as to Szczyrk, Legendia and real estate projects. In Szczyrk the Group's largest restaurant was built on the slope with a capacity of 430 people, and we also bought a hotel here.

REAL ESTATE

The goal of this segment is to build infrastructure and buildings in the mountain regions. In its realization the Company plans to capitalize on the unique location in the High and Low Tatras region. TMR's strategy in this segment is mostly development, construction, and sale of apartments. In the past year another phase of the Chalets Jasná Collection**** Center project was underway, with the construction of investment apartments, whilst the chalets at Záhradky are also still for sale. The project of the Apartment house Horec was launched in Tatranská Lomnica with the remodeling of the lodging building Horec into luxurious apartments for sale. TMR also continued with the construction and sale of additional investment real estate in Holiday Village Tatralandia. Alongside these projects necessary infrastructure is being built for the natural development of tourism in the following areas cableways, infrastructure, trails, information signs, etc. TMR plans its real estate projects mostly on traditional, urban areas, where sport and tourism have been part of history for decades.

The Company within the Real Estate segment owns and leases out hotels Liptov**, SKI hotel**, Kosodrevina Lodge, and lodging facility Otupné in Jasná. Revenues from the Real Estate segment come mainly from the hotel leases, from sale of bungalows Holiday Village Tatralandia and sale of apartments Chalets Jasná Collection.

Vision

By capitalizing on our position of a natural monopoly due to the unique position of the Tatras, to become a premier, internationally renowned tourism services provider striving to revive mountain resorts, aquaparks, theme and amusement parks in the region of Central and Eastern Europe from the investment, sports, cultural, and social point of view.

Mission Statement

TMR's mission is to provide services in tourism at a constantly increasing level, in particular through business activities divided into seven key segments - Mountains Resorts; Leisure Parks; Golf; Dining; Sports Services and Stores; Hotels; and Real Estate. The Group plans to fulfil its mission through synergies leading to a complex satisfaction of both, its clients and shareholders.

Competitive Advantage

As opposed to other operators of mountain resorts and tourist services in the region of Central Eastern Europe, TMR holds a position of natural monopoly due to the unique geographical location of TMR's key mountain resorts in the highest mountain range in the region - the Tatras and due to a long history and significant local brands of the resorts in Poland and Czech. This advantage predetermines them to be premier tourist destinations in Central and Eastern Europe. Besides the attractive mountain environment and the resorts' history, the following facts form the competitive advantage for TMR:

  • Through its loyalty program GOPASS the Group is able to build and sustain a wide client base in Slovakia, Poland, Czechia, and Austria during both the winter and summer season.
  • There are 64 million people living in TMR's key target countries within the CEE region, and their economic power and leisure spending has been increasing from year to year.
  • The Poprad Airport ensures easy access by air from key European cities outside the mountainous area, e.g. London, Warsaw, Riga, Tel Aviv, and by charter or private flights from summer destinations, such as Turkey, Bulgaria, Greece, and Albania.
  • To the east of the Tatras there are ski resorts with only limited comparable services.
  • The high altitude provides a competitive advantage for TMR, comparing to other resorts in the region, since it significantly mitigates the risk of unfavorable weather as a result of global warming.
  • The Group is able to capitalize on intra-segmental and intercompany synergies in sales, purchase, operations, and support areas of the Group.
  • TMR has years of experiences and know-how in operation of mountain resorts, leisure parks, and ancillary tourist

services, as well as in building capital-intense infrastructure.

  • TMR's business model is well diversified with revenue generation from mountain resorts, leisure parks, hotels and complementary services.
  • The size of the Group and its years of experiences and success enables an easier access to capital
  • TMR mitigates the risk of seasonality with its summer season comparably strong to its winter season thanks to its summer cableway operations and summer activities, popularity of hotels in the mountain resorts, the summer operation of Silesian Amusement Park, and the all-year operation of Aquapark Tatralandia and now also thanks to the almost all-year ski season at the Mölltaler glacier.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

The long term strategic goal of the Group is to maintain its leading role in winter and summer tourism in the region of Central and Eastern Europe and use this position to gradually enter new European markets. Leadership in the area of tourism provides TMR with the ability to set trends and standards in this industry. At the same time it leads the Group to differentiation. As a result, TMR works on offering premium services for reasonable prices in comparison with other similar resorts in Europe. A wide spectrum of services and their quality are the key for the Group's direction. This goal is based on three pillars, which are highly interconnected:

Pillar 1: Increasing Quality with Investments

By the end of 2019, for the last 13 years TMR had invested in its resorts and hotels around 400 million euros. As a result of these investments, the services provided by TMR in the High and Low Tatras, in Polish Szczyrk and Legendia improved significantly. TMR's resorts thus reached the level of alpine resorts and increased their leading position in the region.

Significant investments in 2018/19 in Jasná include, for example, the start of construction of new snowmaking reservoirs in Jasná, reconstruction of the lower restaurant at Skalnaté Lake, change of Rotunda restaurant, reconstruction of Grandhotel Starý Smokovec and Hotel Srdiečko. In Szczyrk, the transport capacity of existing lifts was strengthened and the largest restaurant in the holding with a capacity of 450 seats was built. Other attractions have been added to the Polish Legendia. In the TMR Real Estate Projects segment, TMR built more cottages and apartments for sale in Holiday Village Tatralandia, the Horec Apartments project in Tatranská Lomnica was launched and other chalets from Chalets Jasná Collection were added.

In the following periods TMR plans for its resorts in the Slovak Tatras to grow organically and capitalize on the

Strategy

completed investments. Future CAPEX in the Slovak resorts will mainly cover maintenance investments and investments into infrastructure, such as finishing the construction of the retention reservoirs in Jasná. The Group also plans to continue in the started real estate projects in the Slovak resorts. The apartment house Horec is being built in Tatranska Lomnica, which is the zero stage of the long planned Lomnicke Promenade. The last stage of the Chalets Jasná Collection will be completed in Jasná. In Tatralandia, after obtaining the necessary permits, new bungalows for sale will be built and will be managed by TMR. As for investments into development of the last acquired assets, TMR plans to get the Polish Szczyrk Mountain Resort to the level of its Tatra resorts. In the following period the investments will be directed mainly to accommodation facilities in the resort, the rooms of the hotel Gronie in Szczyrk will be renovated. The Polish amusement park, Legendia, will be further developed, and a new water attraction should be added. The newest acquired Austrian resorts will also require extensive investments, which TMR is planning in a few years. New slopes, lifts as well as the strengthening of the accommodation infrastructure in almost every resort are in the process of preparation, but many of them are hindered by lengthy processes in granting permits or granting exceptions.

Pillar 2: Strategic Acquisitions and Expansion

Last year TMR finally fulfilled its plan to expand its portfolio to include an Alpine resort, acquiring in June 2019 two Austrian sister resorts - Mölltaler Gletscher and Ankogel Mallnitz, which were also included in the GOPASS program. In the medium term, TMR will focus primarily on completing and strengthening existing resorts, where it has ample opportunities to grow, improve services and improve TMR's results. Strategic expansion of the operations on the neighboring Czech market includes an indirect minority interest in Melida a.s., the operator of the Špindlerův Mlýn resort, which is included in the GOPASS loyalty program. In November of 2017 TMR made an agreement with the Czech town of Liberec for TMR to rent and operate the ski resort Ještěd. TMR plans to develop the potential of this unique city ski resort via future investments. TMR also wants to expand its business activities in Czech by entering a new segment golf. Since November 2018 TMR has been renting Golf & Ski Resort Ostravice and in January 2018 it started managing Kaskáda Golf Resort Brno. The Ostravice contract has been signed for 20 years and the Kaskáda contract, based on which TMR is managing the resort's hotel, restaurant and a congress center, has been signed for 20 years. In the following period TMR plans to expand its golf segment by partnering with Golf Resort Olomouc. Furthermore, TMR plans to expand its business activities in utilization of accommodation capacities for third parties, namely a new hotel and a guesthouse in Bešeňová and the new Chalets Jasná Collection.

Pillar 3: Constant Operations & Services Enhancement

Management wants to achieve intensive growth of the number of visitors primarily by intensive customer orientation. Strategic steps to achieve this goal in the recent years included increasing the variety and quality of the services provided. TMR expands the scale of attractions offered and improves the quality of ski schools, ski equipment rentals, and dining facilities on slopes. Moreover, it continuously improves the offer of après ski possibilities. The Group also tries to optimize transport possibilities to its resorts and cooperates with local business entities on the level of regional clusters. TMR prefers to cooperate rather than compete with them; it wants to build on their success and provide their customers easy access to its nearby mountain resorts and leisure parks and a variety of attractions for children, adrenalin sports for the young (e.g. bike parks), and relaxation zones. Regarding accommodation possibilities, TMR focuses primarily on four-star hotels and improvement of their wellness and dining services. Other strategic steps include focus on affluent clientele, essential quality of management and staff, and a sophisticated marketing strategy. In the following period, TMR plans to strengthen its controlling team, improve the analysis of big data and its implementation in its operations. Another key to TMR's growth is innovation. In this regard, TMR acts as the trendsetter in tourism. The loyalty program GOPASS enables its customers to shop online or via a mobile app and to collect points in its facilities by using its services and pay bargain prices, and at the same time, GOPASS serves as TMR's Customer Relationship Management and Direct Marketing tool. This loyalty program was awarded in 2015 at The Loyalty Awards in London, where it won in categories: the Best loyalty program of the year in the travel sector (airlines, hotels, destinations); the Best loyalty program of the year in Central and Eastern Europe; and the Best Customer Relationship Management (CRM) in a loyalty program for Direct Marketing. Within this pillar TMR fully utilizes synergic effects among its segments, thus it is able to constantly optimize services it provides, as well as to keep expanding its variety of products and services, e.g. an option to use services of several mountain resorts and the aquapark with purchase of just one ticket. The quality management in the resorts is also supported by the revolutionary price policy of flexi ski pass prices, which allows the resorts to regulate attendance and plan capacity. In times of lesser demand TMR offers skiing at much more attractive prices than in the past and at times of congestion, with higher prices it can generate better sales and keep visitors at a level that can offer quality skiing. In the next year TMR plans to implement the flexi pricing system also in the resort of Szczyrk and the Špindlerův Mlýn Ski Resort. TMR will also test the new hotel system and plans to implement it in all the hotels in the portfolio.

MARKETING STRATEGY

Market Segmentation

The TMR Group's client base is based on domestic visitors in Slovakia, Poland, Czechia, and Austria, as well as on visitors from neighboring and close by countries, such as Hungary, Germany, Ukraine, Russia, or Slovenia.

The natural market of the Group is in the regions within 200 km radius inhabited by 7.5 million people. This radius includes cities, such as Krakow and Katowice in Poland, as well as Czech cities Ostrava, Olomouc, and Brno. From the geographical point of view there are other, further markets with limited access to mountains, such as Great Britain, Ireland, Russia (Moscow and Sankt Petersburg), Ukraine, and Baltic countries. While domestic clients and the clients from the neighboring countries use road transportation (car, bus), clients from more distant locations travel by air and use regular charter connections. The Group's market has expanded also thanks to the acquisition of the Alpine resorts of Mölltaler Gletscher and Ankogel in Austrian Carinthia, which thanks to their attractive locations are interesting not only for the GOPASS program clients but also for visitors from Austria, Italy, and Slovenia.

The Group also divided potential target groups into the following categories:

  • affluent clients
  • mainstream

low-cost clients

The main marketing goals of the Group include clear brand placement on the market by segmentation of clients and focusing of particular marketing strategies on these specific segments that would lead to maximum synergy of all brands covered by TMR. At the same time the Group has been observing a shift of clientele structure towards affluent clientele generating the highest revenues and focusing at products and services with the highest added value.

Communication of Strong TMR Brand

Preferred goals of the TMR Group's marketing include building of the TMR brand awareness by constant communication of image, integrated product communication with the TMR brand, setting communication of the Group and all brands that the Group covers in order to reach maximum synergy (cobranding); and by strengthening positive and managed PR and attractive adventure tourism - through event management. In order to create awareness and build a strong company brand, a useful fact without a doubt is that TMR is a publicly traded company listed on the stock exchange in Bratislava, Prague, and Warsaw; it is the strongest player in tourism in Slovakia, or even in Central and Eastern Europe, providing full service resorts or destinations with a high level of service in the region of the High Tatras, Low Tatras, Liptov, the Polish Beskids, Silesia, the Czech Beskids, Moravia and Krkonoše Mountains in the Czech Republic, and Carinthia in Austria.

Marketing Activities in Slovakia

The Group is using a massive marketing communication in all basic types of media - Internet, television, radio and press, and also outdoor advertising in several forms - bigboards, atypical premium billboards placed on walls of buildings in big cities and on main roads, citylights, bus banners and the like.

As for the Slovak market, also last year TMR cooperated on commercials and sponsored content on the national TV JOJ before the winter and summer season. Advance sale and branding/ product placement spots were broadcasted in radios (Rádio Expres, Funradio, Rádio Jemné, and Rádio Anténa Rock, Rádio Vlna). Cooperation in the form of spot campaigns continued with Rádio Anténa Rock and Rádio Jemné during the winter and summer season. Realtime marketing broadcasted the actual conditions in the mountain resorts and Aquapark Tatralandia. The Polish resorts of Szczyrk and Legendia also use the latest online marketing methods for their public campaigns, although they continue to communicate via traditional media as well, such as outdoor advertising, mostly local radio stations targeted on defined skier groups, or families with children in case of the Legendia park.

The Company focuses on modern marketing content in various forms. The Company's offer also has a very intensive presentation through a not-for-sale image magazine called TATRY MAGAZÍN, which is available in accommodation facilities and tourist facilities as the only lifestyle magazine about the life in the Tatras. TMR launched an online portal, TravelCase, which posts news from TMR's hotels and resorts.

In addition to the above-mentioned advertising campaigns, TMR Marketing Department also performs other, no less important activities such as active participation in exhibitions and fairs, cooperation in destination management with entities operating in the region, such as the active Liptov Cluster and several district tourism organizations in the regions. Also cooperation with single district tourism organizations, the origin of which was supported by the Tourism Act, and active subsidy policy of the state in relation

Strategy Strategy

Plan vs. Actual Operating Results

Financial Goals

For the past fiscal year the Group set goals of a stable growth in operating revenues and operating income.

The short term goal for 2018/19 included a growth in operating revenues of 10.9% (EUR 120 mil.) and a growth in EBITDA of 8.3% (EUR 37.0 mil). This financial plan was introduced at the Annual General Meeting on April 17, 2019. TMR met its financial goals for revenues, which exceeded the plan by 6.3%. The Group did not manage to meet the EBITDA plan as EBITDA was 4.1% below the plan. The

reason for not meeting the EBITDA plan was the negative profit of the Austrian resorts since they were acquired after the winter season, and the results did not include the revenues generated in the main winter season. Another reason was the postponement of the recognition of profit from real estate projects. The projects were completed but due to administrative delays, such as building approval, the profit will not be recognized until the following year.

to the creation and execution of marketing campaigns for regions and creation of regional products supporting tourism, are important for TMR.

Use of Information Technology and Innovations

TMR also keeps in mind the use of innovations and continually improves its communication also via information technology. TMR communicates and informs via individual resort and hotel websites that direct the purchase process to www. gopass.sk. In Poland TMR communicates via website www. szczyrkowski.pl and via www.legendia.pl. All TMR hotels communicate with their clients also via a unified website www.tmrhotels.sk. From the point of view of a securities issuer and a tourism operator, TMR communicates via its corporate website www.tmr.sk.

The Group uses social networks for communicating with clients on a daily basis. In the Group's key markets (Slovakia, Poland and the Czech Republic), Facebook is number one in social networks and, therefore, TMR puts emphasis on the development of a wide fan base. At present, the following resort profiles are administered (fan groups) - JASNÁ Nízke Tatry, Vysoké Tatry - The Adventure Mountains, Aquapark Tatralandia, Szczyrkowski Ośrodek Narciarski, Mölltaler Gletscher, Legendia, Golf Resort Kaskáda, Golf & Ski Resort Ostravice. and Tatry Mountain Resorts, a.s. and smaller profiles of individual projects - Tatranská divočina, Happy End Jasná, Liptov Arena, Hotel Srdiečko, Nízke Tatry; Après-ski bary Jasná, Tatry Motion, Grandhotel**** Starý Smokovec, Vysoké Tatry; Hotel Fis***, Štrbské Pleso; Hotel Tri Studničky****, Nízke Tatry; Rotunda, Grandhotel Praha****, Vysoké Tatry; Hotel Grand****, Jasná-Nízke Tatry, Holiday Village Tatralandia, Hotel Pošta, Chalets Jasná de Luxe, and others. For marketing purposes the Group also utilizes social networks Instagram, LinkedIn, or a YouTube channel.

During the seasons the Group's Marketing Department is focused on production of quality live video transmissions and online information from individual resorts that are available on the Internet and thanks to which clients can get a better idea of actual conditions in the resorts. Information about changing snow conditions and operation of resorts is published online from each communication point, on both own and external web portals several times a day. Current information about the resorts is provided on LCD monitors in hotels, LCD screens in the resorts, or the dispatching center radio during the winter season.

Direct Marketing and E-commerce

TMR is currently actively using Direct Marketing also in the GOPASS program. It is the key tool of the GOPASS program, interconnecting an e-shop, loyalty program, and a communication platform through email or text messages. As of the end of the fiscal year 2019, 1.859 million members in total were registered in the program, whilst during the year 600 thousand new members joined it. In the online sale during November 2018 through the end of October 2019 51% of all ski passes (skier days) in the Slovak mountain resorts have been sold via GOPASS.

Event Management Activities during 2018/19

The ski season in the Slovak resorts began in Jasná on December 1. At Štrbské Pleso the season was launched on December 7 and in Tatranská Lomnica on December 15. At the beginning of the season the most popular Tatra attraction, the Tatra Ice Dome, was opened again at Hrebienok. The 6th annual most successful winter attraction in the High Tatras was built in the style of St. Peter's Basilica with Bernini's colonnade. Other popular winter events included Tatry Ice Master at Hrebienok, Snow camp and Dinner under the stars at Skalnate Pleso, the Tatra dinner with experiences, or 75 secrets of a cableway.

During the first week of February, the guests in Jasná had an opportunity to participate in the traditional Culinary Week - a gastro festival of unusual tastes. In Tatranská Lomnica guests enjoyed a unique atmosphere of Nordic wilderness at the festival Snow Dogs. A special historical sledge race (with the so called "krňačky" sledges) again took place on the southern slopes of Mt. Chopok at the end of February. The European Women's Cup in downhill skiing in Jasná, attended by the world champion, Petra Vlhová, attracted a lot of guests. The public giant slalom race referred to as the Hero Season Trophy Tour took place in Szczyrk, Czech Špindlerův Mlýn and Vysoké Tatry, with the final round in Jasná on March 30. The winners in individual categories and resorts were awarded the Smart Pass - a season pass for the following skiing season.

During the summer season in Tatralandia inter alia TMR organized a race on the newest toboggans, 4 Family and Delphin, attended by the popular stars of the TV show, Daddies, as part of a rich accompanying program. At Mt. Chopok, families with children could experience the attractive and magical Dragon Nights associated with legends. Cultural and culinary experience at Štrbské Pleso awaited the visitors of the 6th Venetian Night event. The 12th year of the popular Bear Days event took place at Hrebienok and the popular family event Marmots at the Lake took place for the 9th time at Štrbské Pleso in August. The Legendia amusement park hosted dozens of events and animations throughout the summer season to attract more visitors to the park.

Jasná Nízke Tatry

TMR again expanded the snowmaking system in Jasná. It also widened dining options here. A new modern restaurant with Slovak cuisine, Habarka, has been opened at Mt. Chopok

Strategy Strategy

and a new dining point Jasná Mountain Food, a mountain version of street food. On the south side of Mt. Chopok the Jasná resort added a new comfortable managed entry point. An automatic defibrillator has been placed here in order to help with serious defects of heart rhythm.

The Jasná resort is turning "eco-friendly" also thanks to gradual replacement of plastic dishes in the dining facilities on the slope with ecological material (paper, bamboo) or porcelain. Other major upgrades include separation of trash at cableway entry points and in the resort's operations, or a waste press at Hotel Grand Jasná. The natural fridge that stores the last year's snow at Biela Púť was a successful project; 65% of the snow has been recycled.

Jasná won the TOP CLASS award from the world's largest ski portal skiresort.info for 2019 as the only resort from the Slovak and Czech resorts and 4 out of 5 stars in the category of up to 60 km of slopes.

Vysoké Tatry

In the Vysoké Tatry resort more snowmaking points have been added. The resort obtained also two snow track vehicles, one with a GPS system to measure and visualize snow cover. Restaurants expanded their capacities and a new one has been added. The resort also got an automatic defibrillator.

In the first year of the grant program, 'For a better life in the town of Vysoké Tatry', TMR gained support for nine projects, the goal of which is improvement of life in the town of Vysoké Tatry. Before the winter season the second phase of the remodeling of restaurant Hrebienok with a new café and a cafeteria was completed. Grandhotel Starý Smokovec underwent a major remodeling; 79 rooms and apartments,

the hotel's hallways and conference room were modernized. A new addition of Hotel Fis's terrace was opened. In November 2018 Grandhotel Praha was awarded the best European historical hotel in the Heritage & Wellness category by Heritage Hotels of Europe Awards and Slovakia´s Best Ski Hotel 2018 by World Ski Awards 2018.

Tatranská Lomnica was awarded the INSIDER TIP award among top resorts with a size of up to 20 km of slopes and 3.5 of 5 stars from skiresort.info.

Szczyrk Mountain Resort

In Szczyrk trails got maintained and improved; a new cableway was added; and the implementation of the Leica system enabled a higher quality trail grooming. The resort was operational also during a windy weather thanks to technical solutions. New products, Fresh Track and Trail grooming, were added. Another annual Winter Sport & Music Festival took place, featuring the longest and the most difficult giant slalom in Poland. Volvo Fresh Track, a presentation of new car models, was very popular.

Ještěd

Visitors this past season appreciated an easier entry point to the resort thanks to a multi-functional center of the first contact, a high quality ski rental, a greater area for the ski school, new turnstiles, and new dining facilities. Events, such as 'Your skis have a familiar face', or 'School report card on skis', had a great success.

Špindlerův Mlýn

In March 2019 TMR organized the World Cup in Alpine Skiing in Špindlerův Mlýn that met with a great success among visitors, also thanks to the attendance of the world champion, Petra Vlhová, and her victory in Giant Slalom.

Strategy Strategy

The management uses operating and financial key performance indicators (KPIs) to evaluate operating performance of the Group. The Group's portfolio is divided into seven segments, and for this reason the management monitors performance of each segment.

Operating Performance Indicators:

Number of Visitors

As for the performance of the Mountain Resorts segment, the management monitors performance of financial indicators based on the number of visitors in terms of used skier days in the winter season, i.e. number of persons visiting a ski area for any part of day or night for the purpose of skiing, snowboarding, or other downhill slide. E.g., a 4-day ticket means four customers in the mountain resorts of TMR. The number of visitors on the cableways in the summer season and visitors in the Leisure Parks segment is measured in terms of sold and used entries.

Average Revenue per Visitor

In the segments Mountain Resorts, Leisure Parks, Dining, and Sport Services & Stores, the key indicator is the average revenue per visitor/ sold skier day for a given period from sale of ski passes, entries, services, and products.

Occupancy

In the Hotels segment operating performance is monitored based on percentage occupancy of individual hotels of TMR's portfolio and of the weighted average of the hotel portfolio.

Average Daily Rate

Average Daily Rate (ADR) is one the key indicators to measure hotel performance. It represents average revenue from per occupied room per given period. The calculation is based on the equation where room revenues are divided by the number of rooms sold. The management monitors ADR of each hotel and of the weighted average of the hotel portfolio.

Financial Performance Indicators:

Revenues

Operating revenues of the Group come from operating activity of the segments Mountain Resorts, Leisure Parks, Golf, Dining, and Sports Services & Stores, Hotels, and Real Estate.

EBITDA

To describe financial performance of the TMR Group, management uses EBITDA (Earnings before interests, taxes, depreciation and amortization) as the key indicator, which represents income net of interest, taxes, and write-offs. EBITDA clearly indicates the Group's financial performance based on operating activities since it eliminates impact of financing, as well as accounting decisions of a non-operating character.

EBITDA Margin

In order to evaluate operating profitability of the TMR Group, management utilizes EBITDA margin. It equals earnings before interests, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) divided by operating revenues. Since EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization, EBITDA margin is able to provide the investor a clearer picture of operating profitability.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

The main target group for TMR is represented by tourists from Central and Eastern Europe, mainly from Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Poland, Ukraine, and Russia. The Austrian resorts are visited mainly by the domestic tourists, as well as tourists from West and Central Europe. Therefore, the visit rate in TMR's resorts is partly impacted by economic development in these countries.

Slovakia

According to the National Bank of Slovakia, in 2018 GDP increased by 4.1% year-over-year, the highest pace since 2015.1 In 2019 GDP of Slovakia should reach a growth of 2.3% impacted by slowing external demand, caused by protectionist measures within global economy. The growth is driven by sectors focused on domestic demand. A negative impact comes from a higher government deficit and higher oil prices. ECB's monetary measures and employment have a positive impact on the economy. In the following years recovery of external demand is expected, as well as a speedier utilization of EU funds, as a result of which the estimated 2020 growth of 2.3% should accelerate to 2.5% in 2021.2

The Czech Republic

According to Czech National Bank (ČNB), economic growth in 2018 slowed down to 2.9% due to sensitivity to external economic development, higher base interest rates, less easing of fiscal policy, and a slower utilization of EU funds. In 2019 the GDP growth is estimated at 2.5%, a slowdown caused by weakening of global economy, as well as a weaker external demand and employment dynamics. Domestic consumption remains the growth driver. Future economic development of Czechia also depends on Germany's development, which is expected to recover slowly. In 2020 the Czech economy should grow 2.1%.3

Poland

According to EBRD, in 2018 Polish economy grew by 5.1%, the fastest growth in Central Europe. In the first half of 2019 the growth slowed down to 4.4%. Domestic demand was the key growth driver, boosted by improved investments, household consumption, and high government expenditures. Significant wage growth, social benefits, and a favorable labor market helped to maintain disposable incomes and consumer confidence. Polish economy is expected to growth further 3.9% in 2019 and 3.5% in 2020, threatened by negative external development, higher inflation, and higher energy prices.4

Ukraine

In 2018 Ukrainian economy accelerated its growth from 3.3% to 3.6% in the first half of 2019. Growth continued thanks to a high private consumption, fixed capital creation, and an increased real export. A significant private capital inflow on the domestic government securities market led to appreciation of the local currency, and state reserves were boosted as well. Inflation slowed down to 7.5%. Macroeconomic stability and investors' expectations will be greatly impacted by the IMF reform program. EBRD estimates the GDP growth of 3.3% for 2019 and 3.5% for 2020.5

Russia

In 2018 Russian economy grew by 2.3% and continued to grow another 0.7% in the first half of 2019. Domestic consumption remained the key growth driver, although it was weakened by stagnant real wages and a higher VAT. A weaker external demand, lower oil prices, and a stronger rouble negatively impacted net exports. Sanctions and a restrictive fiscal policy took a toll on public and private investments. Decreasing inflation and a worse production output led the central bank to lower the base interest rate by 75 basis points. The bank sector with poor quality assets remains a problem. The rise in unsecured consumer credit led to bank consolidation, and 70% of bank assets are now owned or controlled by the state. The sanctions and weak private investments will likely impact the future economic development, with the estimated growth of 1.1% in 2019 and 1.7% in 2020.6

Austria

The standard of living in Austria belongs to one of the highest within OECD. Economic conditions have improved over the last couple of years, as a result of employment growth in the private sector, consumer confidence consolidation, and resulting higher wages. Austria capitalizes on the close integration with international value chains focused on Germany and with fast growing economies of Central and Eastern Europe. Labor force demand has been strong for the past three years, with a labor increase among women and the elderly. On the other hand, recruitment difficulties and skill disparity raised structural unemployment, which remains relatively high. Uneven production and employment development among regions put pressure on government expenditures. Previous government had a reform plan in place, aimed at easing market entry and improvement of business conditions, a tax reform aimed to support business investments and job creation, and started a reform of the education system. The economic growth will probably slow down due to a weakening external demand, especially from Germany and Italy, skill shortage, and recruitment problems, uncertainties in international trade policies, and bank capital adequacy. OECD estimates 2018's 2.3% growth to slow down to 1.4% in 2019 and 1.3% in 2020.7

Regional Tourism Industry

In 2017 the growth in tourist arrivals in the region of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) accelerated to 5.6%, and in 2018 the growth of tourist arrivals slightly slowed down to 5%, with similar growth in individual destination countries. Europe again maintained the top continent in international tourist arrivals. The region's 2018 tourist receipts rose 9%, accounting for 12% of Europe's tourist receipts. Russia increased tourist receipts in double digits thanks to the hosting of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Georgia recorded the highest increase in tourist arrivals (+16.9%), followed by Lithuania (+11.9%). The top trends shaping the global travel industry include sustainability achieved by the efficient use of resources, promotion of biodiversity conservation, and steps to control climate change. Tourists seek travelling "to change", trying to live like locals, seeking authentic experiences and transformation. Travel "to show" also continues with goals to share one's travel experiences. Also, tourists pursue a healthier life on their travels, such as wellness. Due to a boom of single households and aging population, solo travel and multi-generational travel is on the rise. Finally, tourists try to raise awareness on sustainability while travelling.10

The Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Index (developed by the World Economic Forum) measures factors and policies that impact competitiveness of the Travel & Tourism sector in individual countries in context of regulatory, business, cultural, and natural environment. According to the Index, in 2019 CEE countries that are ranked higher than Slovakia are the Czech Republic (38), Poland (42), Hungary (48), and Russia (39), and all of them improved year-over-year, whereas Slovakia, which dropped from 59th place in 2017 to 60th, is perceived the least attractive, except for Ukraine, ranked 78.11

Slovak Tourism Industry

Besides the majority of domestic tourists, Slovakia is mostly visited by neighboring countries, with the most tourists in 2018 coming yet again from the Czech Republic (702 thousand) and Poland, followed by German tourists. In 2018 international tourist arrivals here increased by 4.3%% to 2.256 million, which is well below the region's average. The number of domestic tourists also increased in 2018 by 4.0%. The ratio of domestic to foreign travelers has been traditionally 60/40, a much higher ratio of domestic tourists than the neighboring countries. The number of over-night stays in Slovakia in 2018 increased 3.9%, out of which 63% can be attributed to the domestic travelers. The average length of stay remained at 2.8 days, as in the previous period.12 In the first half of 2019 the number of domestic and international tourist arrivals increased by 11%.13 The reason behind the continually lower growth than the CEE region is the lack of interest in marketing the country as a travel destination by governmental institutions and lack of the government's support for the sector. Despite growth of the visit rate in last couple of years, absolute numbers of tourist arrivals are much lower than in the neighboring countries, such as Austria or Czechia, which year by year achieve significant growth. A small improvement in the tourism policy came in 2019 in the form of lowering the VAT from accommodation services and the implementation of the vacation voucher refundable by employers.14

European Mountain Industry

Europe is the relevant market for TMR's ski business, especially the CEE region. In Europe the biggest skiing destinations are alpine countries - Austria, France, Switzerland, Germany, and Italy. Worldwide, the Alps capture the greatest market share, accounting for 44% of skier visits (skier days).16 The second most significant is North America with 21%. Central and Eastern Europe attracts only 9% of skiers, although this region produces 13% of skiers globally. Since the start of the new millennium global skier destinations have been experiencing a downward trend in the number of skier visits, especially the Western European traditional skier destinations, despite the overall growing global population and a growing number of skier days globally. One of the reasons is aging population and struggle to promote skiing among the young. This introduces an opportunity

for the CEE region to grow in provision of ski resorts at least to match the regional demand and even to attract a higher number of foreign skier visits. Among alpine countries, France and Austria have the most major resorts (with over 1 million skier visits) - 13 and 16, respectively each, and France with the highest number of skier visits per year17 - 53.2 million whereas Switzerland produces the highest rate of domestic skiers- 35%, with Germany having the highest total number of domestic skiers- 14.6 million.18 Mountain industry in general is very capital intensive because of essential investments into cableways and other resort facilities, which represent great barriers of entry. Another essential entry criterion is e.g. location since skiing requires a mountainous area with a milder/ colder climate.

As for characteristics of ski resorts, they vary in size, ownership, and infrastructure. In some alpine countries, they are usually run by a large number of small private operators who join forces also with local municipalities and market the resort or the ski region as a whole, like in Italy, Switzerland or Austria. In France, on the contrary, operation of large ski resorts especially is concentrated with a major operator. German resorts are also fragmented but considerably smaller than in other alpine countries.19 Large alpine resorts usually offer state of the art infrastructure, have over 100 km of ski trails, transport capacity of over 50,000 persons/hour, and more than 30 ski lifts. They also keep reinvesting large amounts into resorts enhancement. The TMR resorts can be compared

Market Analysis and Trends

to medium-sized alpine ski resorts.

Regional Mountain Industry

In the CEE region Russia has the most ski areas - 354, although only around 67 have more than five lifts and majority have limited infrastructure. Russia is followed by Poland with 182, the Czech Republic with 191 and Slovakia with around 107. Poland's ski areas are mostly small, suitable for beginners, and Czech ski areas are located up to 1300 m above sea level. Russia had on average for the past five years the highest number of skier visits in the winter season- 7.4 million, followed by the Czech Republic with 5.8 million, Slovakia and Poland, both with estimated 5 million. As for domestic skiers, winter sports in Poland are growing in popularity, as Poland produces the highest absolute number of skiers in the region - 5 million, who make up 13% of population. This proportion grew by more than double since 2013, which presents a great growth potential on this market. Slovakia and the Czech Republic produce a much higher percentage of skiers - 18% and 22%, although there are much more Czech skiers in the absolute number - 2.2 million. Slovakia has a competitive advantage on the supply side in the region since 80% of the geographical area is situated above 750m above sea level; and the area includes the highest mountain range in the region- the Tatras, with the highest peak of 2,655 m - Gerlachovský štít.21

The regional mountain industry still exhibits room to grow, in comparing to mature alpine resorts. Observable trends besides investing in resort infrastructure and equipment include extending the variety of services in mountain resorts, such as ski schools, ski service, and shops, as well as nonskiing activities, such as après ski bars, nightlife, restaurants, wellness, family activities and events. As for summer activities, the focus is on adrenaline sports, summer family events, and cycling, evidenced by an increase in development of resorts, cycling tours, and by increased marketing. Mountain resorts tend to keep expanding technical snowmaking. Also, mountain resort tourists tend to be attracted to package deals on lodging and lift tickets, thus this trend is expected to continue. Another trend in mountain resorts is observed in consolidating marketing activities of a mountain destination or a region and mutual cooperation of mountain resort operators. District tourism organizations in Slovakia for example join together in destination management. One can observe these trends in all the locations operated by TMR. TMR is also cooperating with other mountain resort operators in marketing efforts.

Origin of Foreign Tourists in Slovakia in 201815

Slovak Mountain Tourism

On the Slovak mountain tourism market TMR is the clear leader in terms of the number of resorts, ski lifts, transportation capacity, km of ski trails, and lifts elevation. Mountain resorts in Slovakia are mostly operated by small private operators in cooperation with local municipalities and national parks. There are around 100 ski areas in Slovakia, and 47 major ski resorts (3*, 4*, and 5* quality) in Slovakia. When comparing individual resorts and their km of ski trails, TMR's resorts Jasná Nízke Tatry (49km) and Vysoké Tatry - Tatranská Lomnica, Starý Smokovec a Štrbské pleso (24km) are the biggest ones in Slovakia, followed by Veľká Rača Oščadnica (17km), Vrátna free time zone (13km), Skipark Kubínska Hoľa (14km), and Winter Park Martinky (13km).23

Austrian Mountain Tourism

Austria is one of the European Alpine countries with the highest number of ski resorts with ski visits over 1 million per year also thanks to its lift interconnections between ski areas. It also operates the most ski lifts in the world, over 3,000, together with France and the U.S. It also has one of the highest portion of skiers in the population with 34%, and one of the highest number of skier days - 51.8 million (5 year average), 66% of which are foreign, the most foreign skiers in the world. The visit rate has been steadily growing despite struggles in other western markets. The Austrian ski operators have been heavily investing into development of ski infrastructure for the past 15 years. Some resorts have joint marketing efforts, which allow them a higher pricing, and the number of interconnected resorts has been increasing in the last couple of years.24

Regional Hotel Industry

The hotel industry in Slovakia in 2018 continued the growth trend that started in 2015, with total turnover from accommodation services for hotels having increased by 8.0% year-over-year to EUR 428.6 mil. TMR's hotels are located in TMR's mountain resorts, golf resorts, and in Aquapark Tatralandia, and most of the clients utilize TMR hotels' services when visiting the resorts. That's why TMR hotels compete for clients with other lodging facilities in the given resort and its surrounding. In the winter season especially, performance of the hotels is closely linked to performance of the mountain resorts. In Aquapark Tatralandia there is only one lodging facility, thus TMR holds a monopoly here. In the mountain resorts there are other mostly private operators of resort hotels, inns, bed & breakfasts, apartments, and cottages. The region of Jasná Nízke Tatry and Tatralandia followed a positive trend in 2018 and recorded a 14.1% increase in hotel revenues. The region of Vysoké Tatry grew 13.7% in 2018.25 The two leased golf hotels in the Czech golf resorts are the only ones in the respective golf resorts, thus their location is a great competitive advantage within the area, and their visitors tend to stay here. Categories of TMR hotels range from 2-star to 4-star. In the resorts there is a greater competition in the lower category lodging than in the upscale segment. The trend in the resorts lodging sector is to cooperate closely with the mountain resort operators in order to attract clients with affordable bundled stay packages. The hotel market in TMR's resorts is not saturated since TMR had invested a large amount of capital in recent years, and the resorts attract new investors.

Market Analysis and Trends

Regional Trends in Aquaparks

In Slovakia there is around a dozen aquaparks and thermal spas. Tatralandia ranks among the top three parks in terms of size, visit rate and services offered. The number of visitors primarily depends on the variety and quality of services offered. As for the target market, aquaparks observe an increasing visit rate and an increasing share of solvent clients who are willing to pay more for their aquapark visits and require higher quality and constantly changing customized services. In this aspect, TMR's loyalty program, Gopass, helps. Another observable trend is the comeback of Slovak clients who now represent the majority as opposed to the past till 2009, when clients from Poland comprised the majority. Also, aquaparks observe a growing number of families with children that seek out a wide scale of activities, also as addition to water attractions. Demand for quality requires quality personnel, which puts pressure on personal costs for the aquapark operators as aquaparks are mainly a seasonal and weekend business. Solutions can be found in automation, and TMR utilizes its winter employees from the mountain resorts in the summer season of the leisure parks. The trend also includes continuing investments into parks' development, especially all-year attractions. Allyear aquaparks carry a competitive advantage as they do not depend on weather.26 Competition in the neighboring countries is present especially closer to the Slovak borderthere are three aquaparks close to Slovakia in Poland, nine in the Czech Republic, and seven in Hungary.

Regional Trends in Leisure Parks

The CEE region exhibits absence of leisure parks on a scale of Western Europe, where most of 300 parks are located, with annual revenues of around EUR 4.5 bn. There are 30 parks in Europe with an average visit rate of 1-2 mil. visitors. In Poland there are about 45 leisure parks of different size and theme. They may be divided into a number of groups depending on their main theme - luna parks, western theme parks, fairy tale theme parks, dinosaur adventure parks, and miniature theme parks. Majority are so-called dino parks (19) and miniature parks (13). These should be treated as a substitute rather than direct competitors to TMR's Silesian Amusement Park. Besides Legendia - Silesian Amusement Park, there is only one other amusement park of comparable size and with a comparable number of attractions, located also in the Silesia region.

Regional Trends in Golf Resorts

In the Czech Republic where TMR operates two golf resorts, there are around 100 golf resorts. Golf & Ski Resort Ostravice and Golf Resort Kaskáda both belong to the top 10 Czech golf resorts.27 In neighboring Slovakia there are over 20 golf resorts and 55 in Austria. The trends in the regional golf industry include focus on technology since online presence, functional reservation systems, or rating websites are essential for golf resort operators. Promotion of the resorts is vital, thus the resort operators organize professional tournaments and provide ancillary services. Visitors put importance on the quality of accommodation and dining services in the resorts. Another decision factor for golf players is the access to tee times. Also, golf players' demand for golf travel keeps increasing. Half of European golf players travel for golf individually and half use travel agency services, mostly elderly players.28

Regional Trends on the Real Estate Market

The performance of the regional real estate market depends on the stability of demand, which is impacted by macroeconomic development, the job market development, income growth, and access to bank financing. Following robust investment activity in 2016 and 2017, the Slovak investment market has experienced yet another strong year resulting in a 2018 transactional volume of ca. 820 million euros. The sector split of income producing assets comprised mostly or retail and office space. 2018 was strong in residential housing, in which supply still cannot meet demand. However, construction costs increased due to shortage of construction capacities. Investments in hotels and recreational apartments were on the rise in 2018. The start of 2019 continued in the positive trend with a great number of new projects, although the estimates for the year 2019 are careful, predicting a slowdown in several real estate segments, that have been growing so far, due to uncertainties around Brexit and global trade and political wars.29

In the reported period, the recreational real estate market in the Jasná resort has been booming, with several new projects, such as the project under construction of a 5-star hotel resort or additional phases of Chalets Jasná.30 In the High Tatras, mainly in Tatranská and Veľká Lomnica several real estate projects are being prepared or already getting built, also by TMR.31

Risk Factors and Risk Management

Main risks that the Group faces can be divided into market, financial, and operating risks. The management has the complete responsibility for defining and controlling the Group's risks. All these factors are either external, which means they are completely beyond the management's control, or internal risks, which can be at least partially controlled by the management. The most significant risks are described below:

Market Risks

Business Cycle

Current operations of the Group are focused in the Slovak, Czech, Polish, and Austrian market, although majority of the Group's clients come from the whole CEE region, and thus the Group's operations are mainly dependent on the level of economy of the Slovak and Czech Republic and countries of the CEE region. Majority of TMR's revenues depend on the number of visitors to TMR's resorts and hotels. The vacation choices of TMR's clients also depend on the business cycle of the economy, each country's economic growth, and the level of their discretionary income Development of such macroeconomic factors is an external risk for TMR. Since the majority of visitors to TMR's resorts and hotels come from various countries, each of which has its own unique macroeconomic profile, operations of TMR can be heavily affected by worsening of the economic situation on these markets. The risk of a downward business cycle is partially managed by reasonable pricing strategies and effective marketing campaigns on the relevant target markets (see Strategy).

Seasonality

TMR's business model is primarily seasonal, although TMR's strategy involves building and promoting all-year vacation destinations. The busiest months are from January through March, especially in the number of skiers, and July and August in the leisure parks and the Vysoké Tatry resort. The management is continuously working on attracting visitors in the off-season, e.g. by adding snowmaking guns, running vibrant marketing campaigns, offering bundled stay packages, and by organizing events in the resorts and hotels. Besides the aquapark providing warm thermal water, the Tropical Paradise project in Aquapark Tatralandia was a major step towards minimizing the effects of seasonality in the aquapark since visitors of Tropical Paradise can experience summer temperatures in any season. By acquiring the Alpine resort located on a glacier, Mölltaler Gletscher, the skiing winter season got longer. The golf resorts operate the golf courses from the spring till the fall, although in the Ostravice resorts provides lit up cross country skiing tracks in the winter.

Weather

The number of TMR's visitors also depends on a successful winter season, i.e. on favorable weather conditions in terms of abundance of natural snow and temperatures below zero degrees Celsius. TMR manages the risk of low snowfall with the alreadymentioned snowmaking facilities. The extensive scope of coverage by technical snowmaking gives TMR an absolute advantage among competitors in Slovakia in case of shortage of natural snow. Historically, the Jasná Nízke Tatry resort has had an average of 65 cm of snow coverage during the winter season and the Vysoké Tatry resort 82 cm . Drier winters may increase the cost of snowmaking. On the other hand, warmer weather may hinder the snowmaking, since freezing temperatures are needed, and it may reduce the scope of skiing area. At the same time, the resorts are located in a mountainous area with a generally colder climate. Also, in comparing with other Slovak mountain resorts, TMR's resorts have start and terminal cableway stations at the highest altitudes. The Polish SON resort, on the other hand, has an advantage in facing north and towards northwest winds. The Austrian Mölltaler Gletscher resort is located on an Alpine glacier, which guarantees a much longer period with snow coverage. The season on the Mölltaler glacier lasts from mid June till following May with the snow coverage reaching 450 cm. Warm thermal water in Tatralandia partially offsets the cold weather effects, but Tropical Paradise in Tatralandia eliminates dependence on warm weather completely. As for the summer season in the mountain resorts and the amusement park, favorable weather in the summer months is essential for hiking tourists and visits of amusement parks.

Competition

The Group's results also depend on how successfully the Group deals with competition. In the segment of Mountain Resorts TMR competes for visitors on domestic oligopolistic markets in Slovakia, Poland and the Czech Republic, with the position of a leader in terms of size and the range of services. In Austria Mölltaler Gletscher is one of eight ski resorts on a glacier, and among all the Austrian resorts, as well as within Europe the TMR Group

Risk Factors and Risk Management

Risk Factors and Risk Management

faces monopolistic competition with a large number of competitors that provide a wide supply for visitors. TMR utilizes its high quality services, massive capital investments in resort development, reasonable prices in comparing to alpine resorts, patriotism, and locality with the goal of attracting visitors. Moreover, TMR capitalizes on its competitive advantage of natural monopoly in terms of the strategic location of its key resorts in the Tatras in the highest mountain range in the region to the East and North. In the Golf segment the resorts operated by the Group rank among the top golf resorts in Czechia. In the Leisure Parks segment TMR is also among the top players in the local market of aquaparks, although visitation of aquaparks also depends on the travel distance for the given visitor. Among theme parks Legendia Silesian Amusement Park is one of two top players in the region. The hotels from TMR's portfolio, restaurants, sports stores and services, and real estate projects of TMR capitalize on their attractive locations directly in the TMR resorts and on synergies within the Group and provide mostly upscale quality. Partially, TMR manages this type of risk with marketing tools, by utilizing its tangible and intangible assets, such as its strategic position in the Tatras mountain range, and

by a well-defined corporate strategy described in the Strategy section.

Occupancy and Average Daily Rate

The Group's profitability also depends on the occupancy rate of its own hotels and lodging facilities in the resorts. TMR actively works with local lodging operators in marketing the resorts in order to increase occupancy and consequently the number of resort visitors. TMR hotels' results depend on the occupancy rate and average daily rate per room (ADR). To increase these indicators it is essential for TMR to invest heavily into development and renovation of its lodging facilities. Besides aggressive marketing activities for peak seasons, TMR actively works to increase occupancy and ADR also during the off-season by marketing conference space to corporate clientele, offering special seasonal or weekend lodging packages in conjunction with events in the hotels or resorts, e.g. live cooking show, culinary festivals, romantic spa weekends, serving "brain food" for corporate clientele, etc.

Real Estate Market

One of the operating segments of TMR is focused on real estate, as described in the Company Profile section. The revenues of this segment depend on sale and/or lease of residences, lodging facilities, and commercial space in the real estate projects. Even though the current performance of the Group does not depend on the success of this segment, its growth depends on the state of the real estate market, which is an external risk factor. This industry is exhibiting an upward trend for the last couple of years (see Market Analysis and Trends). In case of realization of all the projects, TMR can mitigate the risk of low apartment sales with revenues from lease of space, facility management, and operation. Also, TMR intends to capitalize on synergies from other segments, such as marketing, procurement of inventory, human resources, etc.

Financial Risks

Exchange Rates

Volatility of exchange rates in relation to euro is an external risk that affects the Group's revenues because majority of TMR's foreign clients come from countries outside of Eurozone - the Czech Republic, Poland, Ukraine, or Russia. That is why their travel choices are impacted by currency movements. Appreciation of euro in respect to Polish zloty, for instance, negatively impacts the number of visitors from Poland. During the financial year 2018/19 however, the Czech crown and Polish zloty were relatively flat. Russian rouble has historically been more volatile, as its value in the recent years has been closely correlated with the oil prices. Moreover, investments into the resorts in terms of technology, equipment, renovation, and procurement of inventory were settled in euros, Czech crowns and Polish zloty. Investments settled in Polish zloty and crowns are thus exposed to volatility of exchange rates. The value of the investment in Melida a.s., which operates the Špindlerův Mlýn resort, is converted from Czech crowns into euros. The Group has a significant open position against Czech crown in bonds issued, denominated in Czech crowns. The Group decided to hedge its currency position against fluctuations in the Czech crown for this particular debt instrument using a currency swap. For more information, see Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 29.

Risk Factors and Risk Management

Interest Rates

Volatility of interest rates may have a direct impact on the value of the Group's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The extent of this risk is equal to the amount of interest-earning assets and interestbearing liabilities, where the interest rate at maturity or at the time of a rate change is different from the current interest rate. The period of a fixed rate for a financial instrument therefore reflects the risk for fluctuations in interest rates. The Group's loan portfolio during 2018/19 consisted mostly of short- and long-term bank debt with fixed and variable rates based on 12-month EURIBOR rates. The Group considers the variable interest rate to manage the interest rate risk automatically. In case of economic expansion, EURIBOR grows, but at the same time economic performance of the population should grow, and the Group should be more profitable. In case of economic recession, it is the exact opposite. Besides bank debt, the Group has also issued bonds with payment of regular fixed coupon which is in no way correlated to any variable rates. Loans granted by the Group earn interest at fixed interest rates, thus the Group mitigates the risk of interest rate fluctuations downward. Exposure to this risk is detailed in Consolidated Financial Statements, items 20, 27, 36. The Group's primary exposure to credit risk arises through its trade receivables, lease receivables, other receivables and advances and loans provided. The amount of credit risk exposure is represented by the carrying amounts of these assets in the balance sheet if no form of guarantee is issued. The carrying amount of receivables, advances and loans provided represents the maximum accounting loss that would have to be recognized if the counterparty completely failed to perform its contractual obligations and all collaterals and guarantees would be of no value. Therefore, this value highly exceeds the expected losses included in the provision for unrecoverable receivables. Before the conclusion of major contracts, the Group's management evaluates the credit risk related to the counterparty at its regular meetings. Provided material risks are identified, the Group withdraws from concluding the contract. The extent of the risk exposure is detailed in Consolidated Financial Statements, items 20, 36.

Liquidity

Liquidity risk arises in the general financing of the Group's activities and financial positions. It includes the risk of being unable to finance assets at an agreed maturity and interest rate and inability to liquidate assets at a reasonable price in a reasonable time frame. Individual segments in the Group use different methods of managing liquidity risk. The Group's management focuses on managing and monitoring liquidity of each of its controlled companies. In order to manage liquidity, in 2009 the management changed the accounting year for the financial year ending on October 31. In the first half of its financial year the Group has the winter season representing around 60% of the Group's income. According to the development in the first half-year, the Group is able to affect income and expenses well in advance to keep sufficient liquidity. The seasonality in the resort of Vysoké Tatry is balanced also by a strong summer season in this resort, and it provides more stable liquidity throughout the year. Payment of bond coupons adds to the liquidity risk. Nevertheless, the increasing operating income comfortably covers the Group's debt service despite the high level of debt. The extent of the risk exposure is detailed in Consolidated Financial Statements, item 36.

Bonds and the Level of Debt

As of the end of the reported period TMR has bonds issued in several tranches. Currently, the capital structure in terms of the debt to equity ratio may cause TMR difficulties in obtaining other external financing to finance future investments into its resorts or acquisitions. In case these difficulties in obtaining further financing should occur, TMR's growth rate may slow down. It is not certain whether the Group will be able to obtain external financing, or whether external debt will be obtained under favorable conditions. Inability to receive or a delay in receiving further external debt as well as financing terms, which differ from assumptions, may have a major negative impact on the operations, market position, sales, financial performance and financial outlook of the Group. For more information see Consolidated Financial Statements, item 31.

Operating Risks

Operating risk is the risk of loss resulting from embezzlement, unauthorized activities, errors, mistakes, inefficiency or system failures. This risk arises from all activities of the Group and is faced by all segments within the Group. Operating risk also includes legal risk. The Group's goal is to manage the operating risk to avoid financial losses and protect the reputation of the Group while maintaining optimal costs and avoiding measures that would hinder initiatives and creativity. The Group's management has the main responsibility for implementation of controls related to the management of operating risk. This responsibility is supported by the development of standards for the management of operating risk common for the whole Group. The operational risk is managed by the system of directives, meeting minutes and control mechanisms. The Group's management strives to eliminate all operating risks by regular checks.

Safety

Safety is of great concern to TMR since the Group operates in types of business with varied safety risks. TMR is obliged to mitigate safety risk and guard its clients and employees in the following situations:

  • In the course of developing, maintaining, and operating cableways, lifts, trails, swimming pools, toboggans, rollercoasters, golf courses, and other resort facilities
  • In relation to health risks when providing dining services in the restaurants and hotels
  • In relation to operations of the lodging facilities
  • Any accidents and incidents during promotional and collaborative events
  • In relation to compliance with regulations governing provision of ready-made products and services to clients

IT Security

The Group's business activities substantially depend on information technology (IT) - with ticket sales platforms; on lift turnstiles; cableway and snowmaking equipment; and in shops, in the Gopass loyalty program and e-shop, restaurants, and hotels. Therefore, the Group takes extraordinary measures to mitigate the risk of break-down with high quality software and hardware components and a strong IT support in order to be able to operate under contingency mode.

Risk Factors and Risk Management Risk Factors and Risk Management

Capital Investments

The first pillar of TMR's corporate strategy is based on organic growth through capital investments into its resorts and hotels. Implementation of this strategy requires major capital. Each investment project is carefully analyzed under different scenarios. Despite this fact, there is risk that some of the ongoing or planned projects may be less profitable than previously planned, or even at loss. Unprofitable investments may negatively impact the operations, market position, sales, financial performance, and financial outlook of TMR.

Acquisitions

TMR plans to strengthen its position on regional markets also through new acquisitions. A risk exists that acquisitions of other entities will negatively impact future income and results of TMR, specifically in case of choosing the wrong acquisition target, unfavorable terms, or inability to receive permissions from relevant regulators (especially failure to obtain permission from the antimonopoly bureau). In case such event should happen, it may negatively impact the operations, market position, sales, financial performance, and financial outlook of TMR.

Environmental Issues

The Group's capital investments in protected outdoor areas may be subject to approvals of various governmental and environmental bodies. Since the Group conducts its operations mostly in mountainous areas, part of which belong to protected national parks, some capital investment projects may be subject to approval of various governmental bodies. Each new investment project in such area related to expansion of snowmaking, construction of a cableway, etc. must first undergo the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), one of main instruments of the international environmental policy of sustainable development, and it must be approved by relevant bodies of environmental protection. TMR's resorts in Slovakia are located in already urbanized areas and comply with all environmental regulations, although development of the SON resort in Poland as well as planned projects in Slovakia and Czechia still need to undergo the EIA process.

TOTAL REVENUES AND INCOME

Total Revenues

The Group's total consolidated revenues for the past financial year amounted to EUR 127.592 mil. (108.249), an increase of 17.9%. Thereof, sales amounted to EUR 126.392 mil. (108.020) and the rest are other operating revenues of EUR 1.200 mil. (0.229). Revenues were positively impacted mainly by a higher visit rate in the Szczyrk resort, "flexi pricing" especially in Jasná, the acquisition of Austrian resorts of Mölltaler Gletscher and Ankogel, the new golf segment, ancillary services, the operations of the hotel portfolio and real estate projects. Revenues also includes the one-off impact of sales, advertising and accommodation from the World Cup in Alpine Skiing in Špindlerův Mlýn, organized by TMR. Excluding the one-off effects and acquisitions, revenues improved by 11.8% year-over-year.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)

Another TMR's key financial performance indicator - EBITDA - reached EUR 35.496 mil. (34.166); which means an increase of 3.9%. On the like-for-like basis EBITDA increased yearover-year 15.2%1 . Cost of materials and goods sold grew by 36.1%, mainly due to the construction of apartments and chalets. Personnel and operating costs were up 18.0%. The rise in personnel and operating costs was caused mainly by the pressure of the labor market to raise wages, an increase in the minimum wage, hiring of new employees for the central department, and acquisitions. The resorts of Mölltaler Gletscher and Ankogel also had a negative impact on EBITDA. Since they were acquired after the winter season, they did not generate revenues high enough to cover their operating costs in the summer season. TMR's operating profitability ratio (EBITDA margin) reached the level of 27.8% (31.6).

Depreciation and Amortization, Impairment Loss

The depreciation and amortization costs increased to EUR 20.131 mil. (16.745) mainly due to completed investments and the acquisitions of the Austrian resorts. Due to revaluation of Legendia – Silesian Amusement Park an impairment loss was recognized in the amount of EUR 3.865 mil. (Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 15, 16).

Financial Activity

Interest income of EUR 1.173 mil. (1.148) mainly stemmed from loans granted, earning fixed interest rates (see Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 20). Interest expense rose to EUR 16.791 mil. (14.010); it includes mainly loan expenses and expenses of the issued bonds (see Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 12).

Taxes

Payable income tax was EUR -1.281 mil. (0.125). Total income tax was recognized in the amount of EUR -574 ths. (-189).

Net Income

The Group recognized a net consolidated loss in the amount of EUR -2.288 mil. (3.095). Loss attributable to owners of the parent company amounted to EUR -2.286 mil. (3.173). EPS reached EUR -0.341 (0.473). Total comprehensive income after accounting for foreign currency translation reserve and loss on cash flow hedging amounted to EUR -3.445 mil. (3.019). The parent company reported a net profit of EUR 4.087 mil. (7.573).

KEY EVENTS OF THE YEAR

The Group followed its corporate strategy, under which it took the following actions:

Capital Investments

At the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in April 2019 the Board of Directors presented the investment plan for current calendar year. The actual capital expenditures of the completed and ongoing investments, including reserves, for the financial year 2018/19 totaled EUR 45.3 mil.

Investments in the past FY included a new Grand Jet Brhliská cable car in total of EUR 12.2 mil, which the Company had rented for a long term with a right of buyback. So far TMR has invested EUR 929 ths. in a snowmaking water reservoir in Jasná. Also, new snow grooming vehicles were purchased for Slovak the resorts worth EUR 1.5 mil.

Hotel Srdiečko underwent a second phase of reconstruction with a budget of EUR 886 ths., and the construction of the new Hotel Centrum Jasná was under preparation.

In the leased Ještěd Ski Resort the planned investments are postponed for the next year due to environmental impact assessment processes. Only a new operation of a sports store and services, Ještěd Motion, and an après ski bar were added.

In the Polish Legendia - Silesian Amusement Park the last of the contractually agreed attractions in the first phase of modernization - Rapid River, with a transport capacity of 900 persons per hour, was added. In the last financial year means of EUR 2.2 mil. were invested in this attraction, which will open in 2020. In addition, attractions - Fountain show and Tornado were added.

In Szczyrk TMR purchased Hotel Szczyrk for EUR 2.6 mil. Another investment was the opening of a new restaurant, Hall Skryczinska, the largest restaurant within TMR's resorts, with a capacity of 430 people. The investment amounted to EUR 2.6 mil. The new Skalczynska - Male Skryczne cable car near the new restaurant in the amount of EUR 2.8 mil. and two other lifts were added in the assets registry. Further investments were made in the expansion of snowmaking, ski school, slopes, cycle routes, replacement of cableway software, and infrastructure.

In the Real Estate segment TMR built more cottages and apartments for sale in Holiday Village Tatralandia for EUR 757 ths., the Horec apartments project in Tatranská Lomnica started and additional chalets of Chalets Jasná Collection valued at EUR 6.2 mil. were built.

For more details, see Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 15.

Loyalty Program

TMR continued in its active sales strategy also through direct marketing and building its loyal client base within the GOPASS program. GOPASS enables TMR clients to purchase TMR products and services online or via a mobile app at special rates and by using its services in the resorts and hotels to earn loyalty points, as well. The points can be then applied against future purchases.

In April TMR again launched sale of Smart Season Pass - a season pass for the following season at discounted rates through its e-shop GOPASS.

As of the end of FY, there were 1.859 million members

registered in the GOPASS program, whereas more than 600 ths new members joined.

Acquisitions and Expansion

In June 2019 TMR signed a contract to purchase a 100% stake in Mölltaler Gletscherbahnen Gesellschaft mbH & CO KG, which owns and operates the Mölltaler Gletscher glacier ski resort and its sister resort Ankogel - Mallnitz in Austria. The Group took over the operations on 1 May 2019.

In the Czech Republic TMR has been renting and operating the Golf & Ski Resort Ostravice since November 2018 and the lease and management contract has been signed for 20 years.

Since January 2019 the Group has been renting the Golf Resort Kaskáda near Czech Brno for 20 years, managing the operation of a hotel with a congress center and a restaurant.

Financial Performance Review for the Year Financial Performance Review for the Year

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS (KPIs)

The visit rate in the Mountain Resorts segment in 2018/19 increased year-over-year by 4.9% to EUR 2.840 mil. (2.706) visitors/ skier days2 , whilst it includes skier days from the Austrian resorts of Mölltaler Gletscher and Ankogel3. On the like-for-like basis the visit rate dropped 1.5%. The Group observed a significant increase in the visit rate in the fully modernized Szczyrk Mountain Resort and a comparable percentage increase also in the rented Ještěd resort. The Vysoké Tatry and Jasná resorts did not manage to revert the slight drop in the visit rate from the winter season, even after the summer season since TMR is unsuccessful in fulfilling its strategic plan of resorts expansion, especially in Vysoké Tatry, thus it faces a competition of smaller resorts, especially in favorable snow conditions. The average revenue per sold skier day decreased 2.6% to EUR 13.73 (14.104 ), although the average revenue from online sales via GOPASS in the Tatra resorts improved thanks to the flexi pricing, especially in Jasná. Without the impact of the Austrian resorts the average revenue dropped 0.6%.

Leisure Parks reported a 10.9% fall in the visit rate to 808 ths. (907) visitors due to a worse weather in the spring, shorter operating hours, a lower marketing budget, and several attractions closed down due to technical reasons and cost cutting. The average revenue per visitor slightly improved, by 0.4% to EUR 13.37 (13.32).

The resort clients spent more in dining facilities on and off the slopes and in the leisure parks. Average dining revenues thus improved 7.9% to EUR 4.78(4.43), whilst dining facilities were added in the Austrian resorts and in Ještěd. Sports Services & Stores, which largely depend on performance of the resorts, reported average revenues per visitor up 7.3% to EUR 2.03 (1.90).5

The weighted average occupancy of the TMR hotel portfolio grew by 3.8 percentage points to 66.3% (62.76 ), whilst during the year 36 rooms of Green Inn Hotel and 50 rooms of Hotel Kaskáda in the rented golf resorts were added. In the reported period the Group no longer managed Hotel Kukučka. The hotels were fully occupied again during peak periods, i.e. around New Year's Eve and "the golden week" (period from Christmas till Epiphany). The weighted average daily room rate (ADR) increased 9.9% to EUR 87.97 (80.077).

FINANCIAL OPERATING RESULTS8

Mountain Resorts

Revenues of the largest segment, Mountain Resorts, make up 40.4% (41.9) of the Group's total operating revenues. Revenues are mostly generated from ski pass sales in the resorts of Jasná Nízke Tatry, Vysoké Tatry, Szczyrk Mountain Resort, Ski Resort Ještěd and the for the first time also in the Austrian resorts Mölltaler Gletscher and Ankogel. Other revenues are generated from the lease of advertising and other space, marketing events in the resorts, and management advisory fees for the Špindlerův Mlýn resort. The Group achieved a 13.5% revenue growth in Mountain Resorts to EUR 51.485 mil. (45.361) mainly as a result of the acquisition of the Austrian resorts, a successful winter season in Jasná thanks to the "flexi pricing" and in Szczyrk thanks to the increased visit rate. Mountain Resorts' revenues include a one-off impact of entry ticket sales, advertising, and lodging at the World Cup in Alpine Skiing in Špindlerův Mlýn in the total amount of EUR 1.970 mil., which TMR organized. The impact of the Austrian resorts totals EUR 1.506 mil., which includes operations since May 2019 and ski pass sale via Gopass for the Austrian Mölltaler Gletscher based on a business cooperation before the acquisition. On the like-for-like basis excluding the one-off items and the acquisition revenues would reach a 5.8% growth to EUR 48.009 mil.

The Mountain Resorts' EBITDA increased year-over-year by 4.0% to EUR 19.588 mil. (18.842), reaching operating profitability of 38.0% (41.5). The like-for-like EBITDA, excluding the one-off effects, acquisitions, and the revaluation of the interest in Melida, a.s. from 2017/18, improved 22.7% year-over-year.

Leisure Parks

The Leisure Parks' revenues are mostly generated from entry tickets to Aquapark Tatralandia and Legendia - Silesian Amusement Park and make up 8.8% (11.4) of total revenues. In the past year revenues decreased 8.9% to EUR 11.238 mil. (12.342). The decrease was caused by a fall in the visit rate. EBITDA fell 19.0% to EUR 3.662 mil. (4.521). Operating profitability of Leisure Parks dropped to 32.6% (36.6).

Golf

Revenues of the newest Golf segment come from the operation of two leased Czech golf resorts of Golf & Ski Resort Ostravice and Golf Resort Kaskáda, specifically from green fees, membership and coach fees, green card fees, and from golf cart rental. The segment revenues reached the amount of EUR 913 ths. (0). The operating performance indicator, EBITDA, was achieved in the amount of EUR 95 ths. (0).

Dining

The Dining segment revenues of the reported period are generated in the Group's dining facilities and après ski bars in the resorts Jasná Nízke Tatry, Vysoké Tatry, Szczyrk, Ještěd, Mölltaler Gletscher, in both golf resorts, and both leisure parks. Last year's revenues of the segment make up 14.4% (14.8) of total revenues. Total revenues reached EUR 18.431 mil. (16.013), or a 15.1% increase. The like-for-like revenues excluding the acquisitions improved 7.5% to EUR 17.221 mil. The annual growth confirms the trend of the rising clients' demand for ancillary services in the resorts, thus TMR sees additional growth potential in this segment and thus has been expanding and improving its dining facilities. The segment's operating profitability reached 16.9% (19.8), whereas EBITDA slightly decreased to EUR 3.124 mil. (3.168). On the like-for-like basis EBITDA improved 10.7%. The success of this segment to a certain extent depends directly on the success of the resorts and parks, as these are ancillary services in the resorts and leisure parks. Opening of new operations, increased visit rate, higher average client spending, as well as numerous marketing events during the year contributed to the segment's positive results.

FINANCIAL POSITION

Liquidity

As of the end of 2018/19 the Group operated with liquid funds in the amount of EUR 12.073 mil. (54.525) in the form of cash and cash equivalents. The decrease is due to the fact that cash was used to repay the loan from J&T Banka in the amount of EUR 42.036 mil.

Total Assets

The book value of total assets increased to EUR 533.858 mil. (521.684). Value of current assets decreased to EUR 88.303 mil.

Group's Position at the End of the Year

ENVIRONMENT AND COMMUNITY

TMR owns and operates major tourist resorts mainly in Slovakia and Poland. Majority is located in the area of national parks. The Company concentrates solely on traditional, already urbanized areas, where sports and tourism have been a tradition for decades. From TMR's point of view protecting fauna and flora is a very important part of ongoing investments, and of continuing development of summer and winter tourism in the Tatras. Every investment is analyzed in terms of impact on the environment.

Impact of Business Activities on Environment

TMR in all of its investment and operational activities cares for environment protection and minimal impact on the natural environment. The Company takes environment into consideration during the course of its business activities and tries to minimize their impact in every segment. TMR's effort is to select services and products in such a way that the impact on the environment is minimal. Moreover, the Company does its best to restrict relatively the use of natural resources and optimize waste production. TMR spreads this attitude towards environment internally among its employees and externally within communities by means of initiatives and events. The goal of TMR is to conduct business activities with a minimum energy and fuel consumption. With this goal in mind the Company also adapts its capital investments into new cableways. These new cableways are built with the latest energy efficient technologies from top world producers, like Doppelmayr and Leitner.

Green Energy

For its operations the Company utilizes "green energy" electric energy from renewable resources, i.e. solar, water, and wind energy, for which it was granted a certificate from the supplier. In every segment the Company aims to utilize efficient management of operations at an optimal level of energy consumption, and moreover, the Company consistently works on improving operational efficiency. In addition to the selection of energy efficient cableways TMR also cares for the correct choice of trail-grooming vehicles that have lower emissions and thus decrease the impact on the environment.

Projects of 2018/19

TMR's projects last year refered to activities of prior periods, when TMR made an active contribution to restoration of the areas, in which TMR's business activities are performed. The Group was also proactive in preparation of educational activities focused on various age groups of the population. TMR has been very active in cooperation with district tourism organizations (DTOs). TMR is a member of three DTOs covering the whole region of the Company's operation. It includes the following DTOs:

  • DTO High Tatras Region
  • DTO Liptov Region
  • DTO Horehronie Region

All the aforementioned organizations developed projects of common communication and/or support to the regional infrastructure aiming to improve their establishment on the tourism market. The parties involved managed to put together funds of businesses operating in tourism and local governments; and, in accordance with the Act on Tourism, the state contributed to the projects in form of grants; as a result funds were raised for common support of the regions.

Tatry Magazine

All DTOs supported their common image magazine for visitors of Tatras named Tatry Magazine. The magazine provides a lifestyle communication of attractions, events, prominent people and news in the broad Tatra region.

Nature and Children

Education promoting positive approach to nature is apparent in many of the Companys activities. The key projects focused on such tutorial and educational tasks are projects such as 'The Treasure of Demian, the Dragon', 'Tatra Wilderness', 'Snow Dogs' and 'Bear Days'. During summer families with children discovered secrets of the mountains and Demänovská Valley, looking for traces of the Demian, the Dragon. An educational trail for children covering even larger area is presently under construction in the High Tatras. The nature trail named Tatry Wild resulted from TMR's cooperation with the State Forests Enterprise of TANAP National Park and the Management of TANAP National Park. This project gradually expands from Tatranská Lomnica, through Hrebienok to Štrbské Pleso. The most attractive part of the project is the eco-mini park Marmot Cave at Skalnaté Pleso - an environment-friendly educational and fun park for children.

Green Chopok

In May 2019 volunteers met at Mt. Chopok for the Green Chopok event in order to clean up ski trails and surroundings from garbage and rocks. Besides cleaning the trails, the fans of mountains also planted trees at Mt. Chopok. More than 200 volunteers and fans of mountains from whole Slovakia joined the action.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Sports Events

The Group proactively supports sport events in its resorts, either as a partner or as a sponsor. Also in the last period, TMR participated in several sports events, such as the European Cup in Jasná. TMR also organized the World Cup in Alpine Skiing in Špindlerův Mlýn. Both events were attended by the world champion, Petra Vlhová. Olympic team arena and Jasna Adrenalin (part of the international

project, supported by TMR, which is a Central European leader in tourism and its success is closely linked with how it cares about the environment in which it operates. This responsibility also includes supporting the project and educating the youngest to an equally responsible approach. More info about the project at www.tatrytieri.sk.

Freeride World Tour). Supporting Athletes TMR supports talented pro skiers that are members of the Slovak Skiing Association and that have achieved extraordinary performance results in the past year, have represented Slovakia in international races, and have finished in top ranks in alpine disciplines. TMR Supported the Ecological Project Tatra Knights TMR supports good ideas and activities focused on the outdoors where it is centered. The goal of the Tatra Knights project is to motivate pupils to contribute to environmental care and to intensify their interest. It also motivates pupils to keep studying the importance of sustaining biodiversity and eco topics not taught in schools. The national ecological project Tatra Knights focuses on pupils of primary schools and high schools. The Methodological and Pedagogical Center (MPC) is the expert guarantor of the In the last financial year, TMR launched a grant program entitled For a Better Life in the town of Vysoké Tatry. The aim of the program is to support the public benefit activities of the inhabitants of Vysoké Tatry, which will contribute to improving the quality of life in the city for its inhabitants. The program aims to motivate people and organizations in the High Tatras to identify what needs to be improved, repaired or created for the benefit of the local community. The added value of the submitted projects is that applicants will actively participate as volunteers in the implemented ones. In 2019 TMR supported nine projects together. Thanks to the grant, sledgers bought sleds, sports equipment for the Athletic Club in Vysoké Tatry, and in the kindergarten provided climbing frames, beam, rope mountain and hanging swings. TMR gave a helping hand to the local theater company and the Roman Catholic parish. Thanks to the grant, the Vysoké Tatry physical training unit purchased equipment, while the Tatra Youth Parliament sharpened and installed book boxes. The total amount of contributions to supported projects under the 2019 grant program was EUR 19 930.

Cooperation with Schools and Universities

TMR puts emphasis on building relationships with high schools and universities in a way so that the Group can create an efficient source of qualified and highly professional employees. TMR focuses on decreasing unemployment of young people caused by differences between skills of school graduates and employers' expectations. Therefore, TMR successfully joined the dual education system. In the school year 2019/20 there were 52 students of Hotel Academy in Liptovský Mikuláš involved in its operations, 23 students were from Otto Brückner Hotel Academy in Kežmarok, and 14 students joined the program from the Specialized Hotel School in Starý Smokovec. By the end of FY 2018/19, there were 89 students in total participating in the dual education program. Students perform professional practice in TMR's hotels and restaurants - Hotel Grand Jasná, Hotel Tri Studničky, Hotel Pošta, Holliday Village Restaurant, Restaurant Paradiso, Grandhotel Praha Tatranská Lomnica, hotel Grand Starý Smokovec, Hotel FIS Štrbské Pleso and HUMNO Restaurant & Music Pub in Tatranská Lomnica. In June 2019 15 students of dual education successfully passed their final exams in the Lukova Restaurant in the Jasná resort. Four successful graduates of the Hotel Academy in Liptovský Mikuláš are currently working in Jasná and in the aquapark. Three graduates who continue in the post graduate studies at the academy work in TMR's operations as contractors. TMR has also a cooperation memorandum signed with the Catholic University of Ružomberok in the form of participating in the ERAZMUS plus programs. There were cca 60 foreign full-time students of the university working part-time for TMR during 2018/19.

This way TMR strives to maintain a high level of its employees' qualification by preparing its future employees for the exact technologies and equipment that it uses in its operations. By dually educating students with focus on demand of the labor market, TMR creates an opportunity for a long-term and stable company growth; and by having joined the dual education model it reacts on higher client requirements, which gives it a competitive advantage in its business sector.

In December 2018 TMR launched a trainee program for university and college graduates. Four college graduates were selected in the program. During 2019 they attended the trainee program at TMR's operations in individual resorts of TMR.

Employee Learning

The Group supports a continuing development of skills, knowledge, and employee loyalty on all levels in order to enable them to efficiently fulfill their job duties, improve their job performance, and to create further advancement opportunities for the employees. The Group created and recruited professionals for the new department of learning and development, which has executed an analysis of the employees' learning needs based on the Company strategy, goals, and the system of regular job performance evaluation of the employees. The department keeps a check on the level of personal profile, potential, and qualification of each employee and sets individual development plans. Based on the development plans during 2019 the department had 2,160 employees attending internal learning courses on 11 topics.

Social Program and Benefits

The well designed social program includes many activities, the goal of which is to fully unify TMR employees and to achieve comprehension and adoption of TMR goals in order to build corporate culture and create a feeling of corporate togetherness. The employees have a chance to use a wide variety of employee benefits. Also this way TMR wants to enable the employees and their families to try out all the services that TMR offers, and thus to boost the overall transfer of knowledge about the products and last but not least to spread positive word of mouth in their networks.

In the summer of 2019 the TMR Group organized the first kids' camp for the TMR employees. The camp took place in TMR's Hotel Hrebienok in Vysoké Tatry under the supervision of camp animators, TMR employees.

HUMAN RESOURCES

Human resources are an important factor in the Group's success, thus the HR department continues to follow the preset course of enhancing the processes in the HR management, jobs stabilization, continuing employee education, and utilization of all modern HR tools in order to achieve quality, stability, and the Group's growth.

The annual average number of the Group employees for the financial year 2018/19 totaled 1,456 (1,402 in 2017/18). In the reported period the Group was using services of human resource agencies in hiring short term employees. In 2018/19 376 employees were hired this way (282 in 2017/18). This proves that the Group is considered a major and credible employer. Despite the Group's positive business performance, jobs seasonality is still present. The Group hires a high number of full-time employees and contractors especially before the winter and summer season, which shows efficient human capital management. In comparing with prior years, differences between the summer and winter season are diminishing. By efficient utilization of human resources we were able to decrease the number of seasonal employees and stabilize full-time employees.

TMR strives to provide equal employment opportunity. On average, the Group employs 54% men and 46% women.

In 2018/19 the Group published 530 job offers and recorded 6,821 responses. The number of the job offers published is the reflection of the labor market which is facing a lack of skilled labor force in the whole EU. Due to this status quo TMR puts emphasis on internal learning, requalification of the human capital, and employees' personal growth, thus TMR prefers internal recruitment in the hiring process.

Projects

The key performance indicator of TMR's employees is TMR's clients' satisfaction and their return to TMR's resorts. On the other hand, it is important for the Group to monitor satisfaction of its employees and to focus on their personal and professional growth.

Communication

Last year several projects were launched aimed to support and speed up employees' integration (new and senior) as well as to support communication among all resorts, passing of information among all employees on the Group's news, its strategy, new projects, and strengthening and adoption of corporate values.

TeMeR newspaper - subtitled "Newspaper not only for Tatry mountain resorts employees" - was published in 2,500 copies in Slovak and Polish in three editions. Te-MeR newspaper is one of the communication channels distributing up-to-date information on the Group.

Employee brochure - provides basic information on TMR, on its acquisitions, values, its vision and social program. It serves as a guide in the onboarding process and provides useful information also for long-time employees. The brochure was published in 3,000 copies and was distributed among all the employees as well as among the new ones. The updated online version is available to all employees.

Evaluation dialogues - are a tool to raise employee performance by setting goals and their evaluation. Setting of personal and career growth is a part of the dialogues, as well as defining job learning for the following year.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES

TMR's corporate governance is regulated by the principles and methods outlined in the Company Articles, TMR's Code of Conduct, in the Corporate Governance Code of companies in Slovakia, in the Rules of Organization and in the set of managing acts (guidelines), which are published at the Company's registered office. The aforementioned principles and methods are communicated to the Company's employees.

Not met. Assessment of the activity of the Board of Directors is done by the Supervisory Board. The Supervisory Board's report has not included self-assessment so far.

As to the Best Practices for GPW Listed Companies 2016 required by the Warsaw Stock Exchange, the Company's corporate governance does not accord with the Best Practices in the following issues:

I.Z.1.3. A company should operate a corporate website and publish on it, in a legible form and in a separate section: a chart showing the division of duties and responsibilities among members of the management board drawn up according to principle II.Z.1;

Partially met. Currently, the Company website does not present such chart. However, the website lists members of the Board of Directors with description of their roles, and their short CV.

I.Z.1.15. A company should operate a corporate website and publish on it, in a legible form and in a separate section: information about the company's diversity policy applicable to the company's governing bodies and key managers; the description should cover the following elements of the diversity policy: gender, education, age, professional experience, and specify the goals of the diversity policy and its implementation in the reporting period; where the company has not drafted and implemented a diversity policy, it should publish the explanation of its decision on its website;

Not met. Even though the Company strives to enable equal employment opportunity and employs 52% men and 48% women, it has not yet prepared and implemented a diversity policy for its statutory bodies and top management, thus such policy is not published on the Company website either. Main criteria for selecting candidates for key positions and statutory bodies are competency and fulfillment of requirements for a given role; not factors such as sex or age.

I.Z.1.20. A company should operate a corporate website and publish on it, in a legible form and in a separate section: an audio or video recording of a General Meeting;

Not met. Currently, the Company does not publish audio or video recordings from its General Meetings as the benefit of these recordings is not justified in comparing to high costs associated with them and they do not fit within the budget for the General Meeting.

II.Z.1. The internal division of responsibilities for individual areas of the company's activity among management board members should be clear and transparent, and a chart describing that division should be available on the company's website.

Partly met. The Company presents its internal division of responsibilities among members of the Board of Directors on its website in wording.

II.Z.3. At least two members of the supervisory board should meet the criteria of being independent referred to in principle II.Z.4.

Not met. None of the Supervisory Board members meets the criteria of independence referred to in principle II.Z.4. Even though the Company considers two members of the Supervisory Board, elected by the Company employees, as independent, since they hold non-managerial roles in the Company, according to the current Best Practices for GPW Listed Companies 2016, they cannot be considered independent.

II.Z.10.1. In addition to its responsibilities laid down in the legislation, the supervisory board should prepare and present to the ordinary general meeting once per year an assessment of the company's standing including an assessment of the internal control, risk management and compliance systems and the internal audit function; such assessment should cover all significant controls, in particular financial reporting and operational controls;

Partly met. The Supervisory Board presents to the Annual General Meeting a report prepared according to the legislation and the Company's Articles of Association.

II.Z.10.2. a report on the activity of the supervisory board containing at least the following information:

  • full names of the members of the supervisory board and its committees;

  • supervisory board members' fulfilment of the independence criteria;

  • number of meetings of the supervisory board and its committees in the reporting period;

  • self-assessment of the supervisory board;

Partly met. The Supervisory Board's report has not so far included a description on supervisory board members' fulfilment of the independence criteria, since the Company automatically considers members, elected by the Company employees and who are not shareholders, as independent.

IV.Z.2. If justified by the structure of shareholders, companies should ensure publicly available real-time broadcasts of general meetings.

Not met. The Company has not so far broadcasted its General Meetings publicly, since potential benefit of the General Meeting being broadcasted does not outweigh costs associated with its organizing. The Company does not exclude the possibility of broadcasting its General Meetings in the future, although such decision is subject to the approval of shareholders at the General Meeting by amendment of the Articles of Association.

IV.Z.3: Presence of representatives of the media should be allowed at general meetings.

Presence of third parties is usually allowed based on the proposal by the Board of Directors at Annual General Meetings. Also at the last Annual General Meetings a proposal was presented by the Board of Directors to allow presence of third parties at the General Meeting. This proposal was adopted by the shareholders and third parties were allowed to attend the General Meeting. The Company does not exclude a possibility that it will allow attendance of third parties at all General Meetings, although such decision would have to be preceded by the approval of the shareholders at the General Meeting in the form of change in Articles of Association.

  • VI.Z.4. In this activity report, the company should report on the remuneration policy including at least the following:
  • 1) general information about the company's remuneration system;
  • 2) information about the conditions and amounts of remuneration of each management board member broken down by fixed and variable remuneration components, including the key parameters of setting the variable remuneration components and the terms of payment of severance allowances and other amounts due on termination of employment, contract or other similar legal relationship, separately for the company and each member of its group;
  • 3) information about non-financial remuneration components due to each management board member and key manager;
  • 4) significant amendments of the remuneration policy in the last financial year or information about their absence;
  • 5) assessment of the implementation of the remuneration policy in terms of achievement of its goals, in particular long-term shareholder value creation and the company's stability.

Partly met. The Company publishes its general remuneration rules for the Board of Directors and Supervisory Board and the total sum of remuneration of the Board of Directors, Top Management and Supervisory Board. The Company has not entered into any agreements with any members of bodies or employees under which the company would be obliged to provide such members or employees with any compensation if their office or employment terminates by resignation, notice served by the employee, removal, notice served by the employer without giving a reason or if their office or employment terminates as a result of an acquisition offer. The Company does not disclose information about non-financial remuneration, as it has not been material so far, nor assessment of the implementation of the remuneration policy in terms of achievement of its goals, in particular long-term shareholder value creation and the company's stability.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies

(a) Statement of compliance

The Consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019 have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the EU and in accordance with Act No. 431/2002 Coll. of the National Council of the Slovak Republic on Accounting ("Act on Accounting").

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 28 February 2020.

(b) Basis of preparation

The Consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on the historical cost principle, while the investment property and financial instruments measured at fair value were revalued to their fair value through profit or loss.

The Group's Consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis.

The Consolidated financial statements have been prepared in thousands EUR. The accounting standards have been consistently applied by the Group companies in accordance with the prior accounting period.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU requires the application of various judgements, assumptions and estimates which affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. However, actual results will likely differ from these estimates. Critical accounting estimates and judgements which were made by management and which bear a significant risk of material adjustment in the next accounting period are discussed in Note 3– Critical accounting estimates and assumptions.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of revision and also in future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

(c) Adoption of new standards and interpretations

When preparing the separate financial statements, the Group applied the following International Financial Reporting Standards, amendments to the standards and interpretations as adopted by the EU, which are effective for the accounting period starting 1 November 2018:

In July 2014, the IASB issued final version of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments that replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and all previous versions of IFRS 9. IFRS 9 comprises three aspects of accounting: recognition and measurement, impairment losses and hedge accounting. IFRS 9 is effective from 1 January 2018. Early application is permitted. Except for hedge accounting, the standard should be applied retrospectively. The comparative information of prior periods is not required.

The adoption of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and its impact on the financial statements is described in Notes e) and f).

The application of the standards mentioned below has had no significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

In May 2014, IASB issued IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective for the periods starting on 1 January 2018 with earlier adoption permitted. IFRS 15 defines the principles for accounting for revenues and will be applicable to all contracts concluded with customers. The new Standard provides a framework that replaces existing revenue recognition guidance in IFRS. Entities will adopt a five-step model to determine when to recognise revenue, and at what amount. The new model specifies that revenue should be recognised when (or as) an entity transfers control of goods or services to a customer at the amount to which the entity expects to be entitled.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Depending on whether certain criteria are met, revenue is recognised:

over time, in a manner that depicts the entity's performance; or

at a point in time, when control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer.

IFRS 15 also establishes the principles that an entity shall apply to provide qualitative and quantitative disclosures which provide useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with a customer.

The Group evaluated the impact of IFRS 15 on the consolidated financial statements of the Group and came to the conclusion that the first-time adoption of the standard does not have material impact on the financial statements due to the nature and types of revenue that the Group generates.

The Interpretation IFRIC Interpretation 22 Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration clarifies that, in determining the spot exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income (or part of it) on the derecognition of a non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability relating to advance consideration, the date of the transaction is the date on which an entity initially recognises the non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising from the advance consideration. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, then the entity must determine the transaction date for each payment or receipt of advance consideration.

The Interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. Early application of Interpretation is permitted and must be disclosed. Since the Group's current practice is in line with the Interpretation, the Group assessed that the Interpretation does not have a material impact on the financial statements.

The amendments to IAS 40 Transfers of Investment Property is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 and should be applied prospectively. Early application is permitted. The amendments clarify when an entity should transfer property, including property under construction or development into, or out of investment property. A mere change in management's intentions for the use of a properly does not provide evidence of a change in use. The amendments state that a change in use occurs when the property meets, or ceases to meet, the definition of investmnet property and there is evidence of the change in use.

The Group assessed that the first-time adoption of the amendments does not have significant impact on the consolidated financial statements, as the Group transfer property into, or out of investment property only in case of the change in the use of the property.

The following standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2018: Amendments to IFRS 2: Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions. The amendments

  • clarify share-based payment accounting in various areas
  • Annual Improvements to IFRS (2014-2016 Cycle) contain two amendments to standards.

Above mentioned amendments do not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

(d) International financial reporting standards that were issued but not yet effective

The Group did not apply any International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union before the date they become effective. In case that the transition arrangements allow entities to choose between prospective or retrospective approach, the Group decided to apply these standards prospectively.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

As at 31 Ooctober 2019, the following International Financial Reporting Standards, amendments to standards and interpretations as adopted by the European Union were issued but not yet effective, and have not been applied by the Group in preparing these financial statements:

  • IFRS 3 Business Combinations. The amendment clarifies the definition of 'business' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020, the amendment is not yet endorsed by the EU)
  • IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement. The amendment is related to the prepayment features with negative compensation (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)
  • IFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, the EC has decided not to launch the endorsement process and to wait for the final IFRS Standard)
  • IFRS 16 Leases (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

  • IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021, the standard is not yet endorsed by the EU)

  • IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. The amendment clarifies the definition of 'materiality' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020, the amendment is not yet endorsed by the EU)
  • IAS 19 Employee Benefits. The amendment clarifies changes, curtailment or settlement of plans (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)
  • IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. The amendment refers to the long-term interests in associates and joint ventures (the amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)
  • IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (the standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)
  • Annual improvements to IFRS standards 2015-2017 Cycle (issued in December 2017, effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

Except for impact of IFRS 16, the Group does not expect the standards to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 16 Leases

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. Earlier application is permitted if the entity also applies IFRS 15.

IFRS 16 supersedes IAS 17 Leases and related interpretations. The standard eliminates the current dual accounting model for lessees and instead requires companies to bring most leases on-balance sheet under a single model, eliminating the distinction between operating and finance leases.

Under IFRS 16, a contract is, or contains, a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period in exchange for consideration. For such contracts, the new model requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. The right-of-use asset is amortized and the liability accrues interest. This will result in a front-loaded pattern of expense for most leases, even when the lessee pays constant annual rentals.

The new standard introduces several limited scope exceptions for lessees which include:

  • Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less and containing no purchase options, and
  • Leases where the underlying asset has a low value ('small-ticket' leases).

Lessor accounting, however, shall remain largely unchanged and the distinction between operating and finance leases will be retained.

It is expected, that first-time adoption of the standard will have significant impact on the consolidated financial statements, since it is required to recognise assets and liabilities from operating leases in statement of financial position, where the Group act as a lessee. This applies mainly on operating lease of lands. The character and and expenses related to these lease will change, as the Group will report depreciation expense from the right to use the asset and interest expense from liabilities. The Group is now recording expenses from operating lease on a linear basis and the asset and liabilities only in time inconsistency between actual lease payment and recorded expense. Instead, the Group will recognize lease payments within lease liability.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Based on the information available, the Group assumes that the impact on the financial statements as at 1 November 2019 will be following:

Statement of financial position

in thousands of euro 1 November 2019
Right to use the land and buildingd 39 003
Right to use the other non-current tangible assets 629
Increase in other liabilities 39 632
Net impact on equity 0

The Group plans to apply IFRS 16 initially on 1 January 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. Therefore, the cumulative effect of adopting IFRS 16 will be recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at 1 Novemebr 2019, without any adjustment to comparable information.

The Group intends to apply the practical expedient to grandfather the definition of lease on transition. This means that it will apply IFRS 16 to all contracts entered before 1 Novemebr 2019 and identified as leases in accordance with IAS 17 and IFRIC 4.

The Group also intends to apply an exemption for short-term contracts. This means that it will not apply IFRS 16 to those contracts that were entered into at the date of initial adoption for the period of less than 12 months and to the low value contracts.

(e) Impact of adoption of IFRS 9

The following table summarizes an impact of new standard IFRS 9 on statement of financial position as at 1 November 2018, when the mentioned standard became effective:

(f) Initial application of IFRS 9 Financial instruments

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, bringing together all three aspects of the accounting for financial instruments: classification and measurement; impairment; and hedge accounting.

The Grouphas applied IFRS 9 with the initial application date as of 1 November 2018.

The nature of these adjustments are described below:

i. Classification and measurement

Under IFRS 9, debt instruments are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss, amortised cost, or fair value through OCI. The classification is based on two criteria: the Group's business model for managing the assets; and whether the instruments' contractual cash flows represent 'solely payments of principal and interest' on the principal amount outstanding.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

The assessment of theGroup's business model was made as of the date of initial application, 1 November 2018, and then applied retrospectively to those financial assets that were not derecognised before 1 November 2018. The assessment of whether contractual cash flows on debt instruments are solely comprised of principal and interest was made based on the facts and circumstances as at the initial recognition of the assets.

The classification and measurement requirements of IFRS 9 did not have a significant impact on the Group. The Group continued measuring at fair value all financial assets previously held at fair value under IAS 39.

The Group has not designated any financial liabilities as at fair value through profit or loss. There are no changes in classification and measurement for the Group's financial liabilities.

ii. Impairment

The adoption of IFRS 9 has fundamentally changed the accounting for impairment losses for financial assets by replacing IAS 39's incurred loss approach with a forward-looking expected credit loss (ECL) approach. IFRS 9 requires the Group to recognise an allowance for ECLs for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or loss and contract assets.

Under IFRS 9, loss allowances are be measured on either of the following bases:

  • 12-month ECLs: these are ECLs that result from possible default events within the 12 months after the reporting date; and
  • Lifetime ECLs: these are ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

IFRS 9 includes a new general hedge accounting model, which aligns hedge accounting more closely with risk management. The types of hedging relationships – fair value, cash flow and foreign operation net investment – remain unchanged, but additional judgment is required. This change had no impact on the Groupas the hedging relationships are simple and straight-forward.

The standard includes new requirements for achieving, continuing and discontinuing hedge accounting and allows additional risks to be designated as hedged items. Extensive additional disclosures about Group risk management and its hedging activities are required.

Financial instruments (except for financial liabilities)

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

i. Initial recognition and measurement of financial asset

Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset's contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group's business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient (ie. the Group measures life-time credit losses). The Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.

Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under IFRS 15.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are 'solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)' on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level.

The Group's business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both.

ii. Subsequent measurement

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:

  • Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments)
  • Financial assets at fair value through OCI with recycling of cumulative gains and losses (debt instruments)
  • Financial assets designated at fair value through OCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition (equity instruments)
  • Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

iii. Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments)

  • The Group measures financial assets at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met:
    • The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and
    • The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding

Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest (EIR) method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.

The Group's financial assets at amortised cost includes Trade receivables, Other receivables and Loans provided.

iv. Financial assets at fair value through OCI without recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition (equity instruments)

The Groupy elected to measure equity instruments at fair value through OCI if both of the following conditions are met:

  • The equity instrument is an instrument in neither an instrument in Associate, nor Subsidiary
  • The equity instrument is not held for trading

v. Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised when:

  • The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
  • The Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass-through' arrangement; and either (a) the Grouphas transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

vi. Impairment of financial assets

The Group recognises an allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.

ECLs are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12 months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).

For trade receivables, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Group does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Group has established a method, that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.

The Groupy considers a financial asset in default when contractual payments are 90 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Group may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Group is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Group. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

The Group uses derivative financial instruments, such as foreign currency swaps to hedge its foreign currency risks. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as:

Cash flow hedges when hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to a particular risk

associated with a recognised asset or liability

The Group does not use any other form of hedges.

The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the Group will assess whether the hedging relationship meets the hedge effectiveness requirements (including the analysis of sources of hedge ineffectiveness and how the hedge ratio is determined).

A hedging relationship qualifies for hedge accounting if it meets all of the following effectiveness requirements:

  • There is 'an economic relationship' between the hedged item and the hedging instrument.
  • The effect of credit risk does not 'dominate the value changes' that result from that economic relationship.
  • The hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that resulting from the quantity of the hedged item that quantity of hedged item.

the Group actually hedges and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the Group actually uses to hedge that

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Hedges that meet all the qualifying criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for, as described below:

Cash flow hedges

The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised in OCI in the cash flow hedge reserve, while any ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss.

The cash flow hedge reserve is adjusted to the lower of the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument and the cumulative change in fair value of the hedged item.

The Group uses swap currency contracts as hedges of its exposure to foreign currency risk in loans taken out in foreign currencies.

The amounts accumulated in OCI are accounted for, depending on the nature of the underlying hedged transaction. If the hedged transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial item, the amount accumulated in equity is removed from the separate component of equity and included in the initial cost or other carrying amount of the hedged asset or liability. This is not a reclassification adjustment and will not be recognised in OCI for the period.

For any other cash flow hedges, the amount accumulated in OCI is reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss.

If cash flow hedge accounting is discontinued, the amount that has been accumulated in OCI must remain in accumulated OCI if the hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur. Otherwise, the amount will be immediately reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment. After discontinuation, once the hedged cash flow occurs, any amount remaining in accumulated OCI must be accounted for depending on the nature of the underlying transaction as described above.

(g) Financial instruments – applicable for comparative period ending 31.10.2018

i. Classification

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

Loans granted are non-derivative financial assets with fixed and determinable payments, not quoted in an active market, which are not classified as available-for-sale securities, financial assets held to maturity or as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss.

Available-for-sale securities are those non-derivative financial assets that are not classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss, loans and advances to banks and customers or as financial assets held to maturity.

Financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are those that the Group principally holds for trading, that is, with the purpose of short-term profit taking.

ii. Recognition

Loans granted are recognised on the day they are provided by the Group.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available-for-sale securities are recognised on the date the Group commits to purchase the assets.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

iii. Measurement

Financial instruments are measured upon initial recognition at fair value plus, in the case of a financial instrument not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial instrument.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets are measured at amortized costs, except for financial assets at fair value through profit and loss and available-for-sale securities, which are measured at fair value.

iv. Fair value measurement principles

The fair value of financial instruments is based on their quoted market price at the financial statements date without any deduction for acquisition-related costs. If a quoted market price is not available, the fair value of the instrument is estimated by the management using the pricing model or discounted cash flow techniques.

Where the discounted cash flow method is used, estimated future cash flows are based on the management's best estimates and the discount rate is the market rate at the date of the financial statement for an instrument with similar terms and conditions. Where pricing models are used, inputs for these models are based on market-related factors at the date of the financial statement.

v. Gain and losses on subsequent revaluation

Gains and losses arising from a change in fair value are recognised in profit or loss for financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss and directly in equity for available-for-sale securities. Changes in the fair value of available-for-sale securities are derecognised from other equity to profit or loss at the moment of sale.

vi. Derecognition

A financial asset is derecognised when the Group loses control over the contractual rights that comprise that asset. This occurs when the rights are realised, expire or are surrendered by the Group. Available-for-sale assets that are sold are derecognised and the corresponding payable receivables to buyers are recognised as at the date the Group commits to sell the assets. Loans and advances to customers are derecognised as at the day they are paid/ settled by the Group.

vii. Impairment

Loans provided are recognized net of loan loss impairment allowance. Impairment allowances are determined on the basis of the loan status and the behavior of the borrower and take into account the value of all collateral and third party guarantees. The recoverable amount of receivables carried at amortized cost is determined as the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate (ie the effective interest rate calculated on initial recognition of these financial assets). Short-term receivables are not discounted.

When an impairment loss has been recognized directly in equity for available-for-sale assets and there is objective reason for impairment, the cumulative loss that was recognized in equity is subsequently recognized in the statement of profit or loss, even if financial assets were not derecognised from the balance sheet.

The amount impairment expense recognized in the income statement represents the difference between the cost and the fair value less any impairment of financial assets already recognized in the income statement. A decrease in the fair value below the cost of acquisition by more than 20%, or a decrease in the fair value below the cost of acquisition that lasts more than 9 months, in the case of investments in equity securities, is considered impairment.

Impairment losses on receivables carried at amortized cost are recognized when an increase in the recoverable amount can be objectively attributed to an event that occurred after their write-down in accounting. In the case of goodwill, an impairment loss cannot subsequently be reduced.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(h) Basis for consolidation

i. Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are those enterprises that are controlled by the Group. The control exists when the Group has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an enterprise, so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. The consolidated financial statements include the Group's interests in other entities based on the Group's power to control such entities regardless of whether the control is actually exercised or not. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the day of origin of the control until the day of cessation of the control.

ii. Associates

Associates are those enterprises in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies. Significant influence is presumed to exist when a company holds between 20 and 50 percent of the voting rights of another entity. Investment in associate is recognised initially at cost. The consolidated financial statements include the Group's interest in the reported profits and losses of associates according to the equity method from the date of origin of significant influence until the date of cessation of the substantial influence. The investment is initially recognized at acquisition cost. When the Group's share of the losses exceeds the carrying amount of the associate, the carrying amount of that company is reduced to zero and the recognition of future losses is discontinued, except when the Group has incurred any liabilities in respect of the associate.

iii. Joint ventures

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually-agreed sharing of control of an arrangement. Joint ventures are carried at cost. The financial statements include the Group's share of the total recognised gains and losses of joint ventures on an equity method basis, from the date that joint control commences until the date that joint control ceases.

The cost of financial investments is derived from the amount of spent cash or cash equivalents or is recognised at fair value of contributed assets and liabilities to acquire the enterprise at the moment of acquisition. Costs related to acquisition (transaction costs) are included in the cost of the investment.

As at the reporting date, the management reconsiders whether any events occurred which could cause impairment of financial investments. Potential impairment of financial investments below their cost is recognised through a value adjustment. Value adjustments are derived from the value of future cash flows discounted to present value.

iv. Scope of consolidation

The list of all companies included in the consolidation is provided in Note 41 – Companies within the Group.

v. Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised gains or losses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

vi. Acquisition method of accounting

Acquisitions of subsidiaries are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the acquirer, liabilities incurred by the acquirer to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the acquirer.

Acquisition-related costs are recognised directly in profit or loss.

The acquiree's identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed that meet the recognition criteria under IFRS 3 are recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date.

Tatry mountain resorts, a.s., Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associates

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Otherwise the difference is reassessed and any excess remaining (gain on bargain purchase) after the reassessment is recognised directly in profit and loss.

The non-controlling interest is measured as a proportionate share of identifiable assets of the acquiree's identifiable assets.

vii. Unification of accounting principles

The accounting principles and procedures applied by the consolidated companies in their financial statements were unified in the consolidation, and comply with the principles applied by the Parent company.

(i) Foreign currency

Foreign currency transactions

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of euros, which is the Group's functional and presentation currency. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into euros at the foreign exchange rate valid at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into euros at the financial statements date at the exchange rate of the European Central Bank valid at that day.

Foreign exchange differences arising from such translations are recognised through profit or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, which are measured at cost, are translated into euros using the exchange rate valid at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are translated into euros at the foreign exchange rates valid at the dates the fair values are determined.

Foreign currency translation reserve includes all foreign exchange differences that arise from the transfer of financial statements of foreign entities within the consolidation group.

(j) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and in banks, short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and short-term highly liquid investments readily convertible for known amounts of cash.

(k) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of acquisition cost (purchased inventory), respectively in own costs (incurred by own activity), and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and selling expenses. Purchased inventories are measured at cost, which includes the purchase price and other directly attributable expenses incurred in acquiring the inventories and bringing them to their existing location and condition. Own costs include direct costs and indirect costs associated with acquiring inventories by own activity.

(l) Offsetting

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and their net amount is reported in the balance sheet when the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the transactions are intended to be settled on a net basis.

(m) Impairment

The carrying amounts of the Group's assets, other than inventories (refer to the accounting policy under letter k), investment property (refer to the accounting policy under letter p), financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (refer to the accounting policy under letter c), and deferred tax assets (refer to the accounting policy under letter t) are reviewed at each financial statements date to determine whether there is objective indication of impairment of the asset. If any such indication exists, the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. Intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation, but are tested annually for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which they belong.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.

Loans provided are recognized net of expected credit losses (ECL). ECLs are a probable weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of the difference between contractual and expected cash flows.

If assets available for sale caused a decrease in fair value recognized directly in equity and if objective reasons exist that prove that there was a decrease in the fair value of the assets, the cumulated loss recognized in equity shall be reported in the profit and loss statement even if the relevant financial asset had not been derecognized from the financial position.

The recoverable amount of other assets is the greater of their value in use less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

An impairment loss in respect of receivables carried at amortised cost is reversed if the increase in the recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. In the case of goodwill, an impairment loss cannot be decreased subsequently.

In respect of other assets, an impairment loss is reversed or decreased when there is an indication that the impairment loss no longer exists and there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.

An impairment loss can only be reversed or decreased to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

(n) Property, plant and equipment

i. Owned assets

Single items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation (see below) and impairment losses (refer to the accounting policy under letter i)). Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use and costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site where it was located. When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, those components are accounted for as Consolidated items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

ii. Leasing

Agreements on lease of assets in relation to which the Group assumes substantial part of risks and benefits of ownership are classified as financial leasing. Leased assets are stated at an amount equal to the lower of their fair value and the present value of the minimum leasing payments at inception of the lease, less accumulated depreciation (see below) and impairment losses (refer to the accounting policy under letter i).

iii. Subsequent expenditures

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied in the part of property, plant and equipment will flow to the Group and the relevant cost can be measured reliably. All other expenditures including the costs of day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

iv. Depreciation

Except as specified below, depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of individual items of property, plant and equipment. Land is not depreciated. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Buildings 30 - 45 years

  • Individual movables and sets of movables
    • Geothermal borehole 40 years Slides 25 years
    • Cableways, ski lifts, and leisure attractions 5 40 years
    • Equipment 3 25 years
    • Fixtures and fittings and others 2.5 10 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives, as well as residual values, are reassessed annually as at the financial statement's date. Each significant part of property, plant and equipment (component) with cost significant in relation to the total cost of the relevant item is depreciated Consolidatedly.

v. Capitalized borrowing costs

Borrowing costs attributable to the asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its use or sale are capitalised by the Group as part of the cost of the asset.

(o) Intangible assets

i. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a business combination Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is included under intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in the investments in associates.

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold. Negative goodwill arising on an acquisition is reassessed and any excess remainder of the negative goodwill after the reassessment is recognised in profit or loss.

Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognised at fair value on the acquisition date if the intangible asset is separable or arises from contractual or other legal rights. Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are recorded at cost net of impairment loss. Intangible assets with a definite useful life are amortized over the useful life and are stated at cost net of accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.

ii. Software and other intangible assets

Software and other intangible assets acquired by the Group are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation (see below) and impairment losses (refer to the accounting policy under letter i). Useful life of these assets is reassessed regularly. Lease contracts refer to valuation of rights from long-term lease contracts.

-

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

iii. Amortisation

Amortisation is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, from the date the asset is available for use. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

 Software 2 – 5 years
-- ------------ -------------
  • Lease contracts 29 years
    -

Valuable rights each item uses an individual depreciation plan, based on the estimated useful lives if these assets, valuable rights also include trademarks which represent non-depreciated assets. The Group uses 2, 6, 7, 8, 12 and 50-year useful lives for its valuable rights.

(p) Investment property

Investment property represents assets that are held by the Group to generate rental income or to realise a long-term increase in value, or for both of these purposes. Investment property is stated at fair value, which is determined by an independent registered expert or by the management. Fair value is based on current prices of similar assets on an active market under the same location and the same conditions, or where such conditions are not available, by applying the generally applicable valuation models such as the yield method. Any gain or loss arising from a change in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

Assets that are constructed or developed for their future use as investment property are measured at fair value if the fair value can be determined reliably.

Details on the valuation of investment property are specified in Note 3(b) – Critical accounting estimates and assumptions, Valuation of investment property. Rental income from investment property is accounted for as described in the accounting policy under letter (o).

(q) Provisions

A provision is recognised in the balance sheet when the Group has a present legal, contractual, or non-contractual obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. Long-term provisions the reduction of which to their present value would have a material impact on the financial statements are discounted to their present value.

i. Long-term employee benefits

Liability of the Group resulting from long-term employee benefits other than pension plans represents the estimated amount of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. The liability is calculated using the projected unit credit method, discounted to its present value. A discount rate used to calculate the present value of liability is derived from the yield curve of high-quality bonds with maturities close to the conditions of the Group's liabilities as at the date of the financial statements preparation.

ii. Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are recognised as expenses at the time of provision of the service by the employees. A payable is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or contractual obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

(r) Interest income and expense

Interest income and expense is recognised in profit or loss in the period to which it relates using the effective interest rate basis. All expenses on loans and borrowings are recognised in profit or loss, with the exception of capitalised borrowing costs; refer to the accounting policy under letter (j), part (v).

(s) Rental income

Rental income from investment property is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(t) Income tax

Income tax on the profit for the current accounting period comprises current and deferred tax.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the current accounting period, using tax rates valid as at the date of the financial statement's preparation, and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous accounting periods.

The amount of deferred tax is based on the expected method of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities using tax rates valid as at the date of the financial statement's preparation or enacted to this date.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet method and calculated from all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities determined for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences weren't taken into account: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities which affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, and the differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that it is probable that they will not be reversed in the foreseeable future. No deferred taxes are recognised on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Income tax is recognised directly in profit or loss, except for the part that relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case the income tax is recognised in equity.

Deferred tax asset and liability are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset the payable tax liability and asset, and they relate to the same tax authority and the taxable entity.

A deferred tax asset is only recognised up to the amount of probable future taxable profits against which the unused tax losses and credits can be offset. Deferred tax assets are reduced by the amount for which it is probable that the related tax benefit will not be realised.

(u) Operative and financial lease payments

Payments made under operative leasing are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Minimum leasing payments of financial leasing are divided into interest and instalments of the principal. Interest is allocated to each period during the term of the lease so as to express a constant periodic rate of interest for the period applied to the unpaid part of the principal

(v) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are stated at amortised cost (see point (aa) Financial liabilities).

(w) Revenues from services rendered

The Group recognises seven types of basic revenues from services rendered:

  • Revenues from cableways and ski lifts (hereinafter also referred to as "Mountain Resorts")
  • Revenues from leisure parks (hereinafter also referred to as "Leisure Parks")
  • Revenues from sports services and stores (hereinafter also referred to as "Sports Services and Stores")
  • Revenues from hotel services (hereinafter also referred to as "Hotels")
  • Revenues from restaurant facilities (hereinafter also referred to as "Dining")
  • Revenues from gold resorts (hereinafter also referred to as "Golf")
  • Other revenues

Revenues from real estate projects (mainly from investment property, hereinafter also referred to as "Real Estate")

The Group recognizes revenues in a scope in which economic benefits are likely to flow to the Group, and these revenues can be easily valued. Revenues are recognized at fair value. Revenues are accrued depending on in which period the services were rendered, excluding revenues from leisure parks, golf resorts, hotel services and restaurant facilities, which are recognised in profit or loss after the service has been rendered. Revenues from services rendered do not include value added tax. They are also net of discounts and rebates (rebates, bonuses, discounts, credit notes and the like).

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Since 2012 the Group has been running a loyalty program for its clients – Gopass. Gopass enables its clients to earn points for purchase of products and services in its resorts and to redeem these points as discounts from future purchases. The amount of unredeemed points are recognized as a decrease in sales against revenue time difference, as they are related to promised discounts from future purchases of clients. The Group monitors the value of unredeemed points and revalues it on a regular basis for its recognition in the financial statements.

Other services include in particular the services provided in relation to accommodation, such as the rental of premises including hotels disclosed as investments property, parking, wellness, massage, sale of souvenirs, etc. Revenues from rental are recognised over the duration of the rental, with accruals. Revenues from real estate projects are recognised following the transfer of rights and obligations and related risks on to buyer, to which occurs at the day of transfering the ownership rights. Revenues from the sale of souvenirs and other goods shall be recognised following the transfer of significant risks and benefits from the particular goods. Other revenues from services provided shall be recognised following the provision thereof.

(x) Dividends

Dividends are recognised in the statement of changes in equity and also as liabilities in the period in which they are approved.

(y) Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale

Non-current assets (or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities) that are expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use are classified as held for sale. Immediately before classification as held for sale, the assets (or components of a disposal group held for sale) are re-measured in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU. Thereafter, upon initial classification as held for sale, the assets and disposal group held for sale are recognised at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

Any impairment loss on a disposal group is first allocated to goodwill, and then to the remaining assets and liabilities on a pro rata basis, except for inventories, financial assets, deferred tax assets and investment property, which continue to be measured in accordance with the Group's accounting policies. Impairment losses on initial recognition as held for sale are recognised in profit or loss even if the revaluation reserve was created. The same applies to gains and losses on subsequent measurements. Gains are not recognised in excess of any cumulative impairment loss. Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets classified as held for sale are no longer depreciated or amortised.

In case that, after the asset assignment into the group of assets held for sale, value is realized mainly through use rather than sale thereof, the assets shall be accounted back and depreciation or amortization for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets shall be recognised in the period when such change of assets arose.

(z) Reporting by segments

Operating segments are parts of the Group that are able to generate income and expenses with available financial information, which is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision makers in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. The management monitors 7 main segments, namely mountain resorts, leisure parks, hotels, dining, sports services and stores, real estate, and other.

(aa) Financial liabilities

The Group recognises financial liabilities as other financial liabilities. The Group does not recognise any financial liabilities valued at fair value through profit or loss.

In the Group's Consolidated statement of financial position, other financial liabilities are recognized as received loans and borrowings, bonds issued, trade payables, other liabilities and current tax liabilities.

Tatry mountain resorts, a.s., Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associates

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Financial liabilities are recognised by the Group on the trade date. Upon initial recognition, financial liabilities are measured at fair value including transaction costs.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost. Upon measurement at amortized cost the difference between the cost and the face value is recognised through profit or loss during existence of the asset or liability using the effective interest rate method.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Group's obligation specified in the contract expires, is settled or cancelled.

(bb) Fair value estimates

The following notes summarise the main methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of financial assets and liabilities referred to in Note 33 – Fair value information:

i. Loans granted

Fair value is calculated based on discounted expected future principal and interest cash flows. Expected future cash flows are estimated considering credit risk and any indication of impairment. The estimated fair values of loans reflect changes in credit status since the loans were made and changes in interest rates in the case of fixed rate loans.

ii. Loans and borrowings

For loans and borrowings with no defined maturities, fair value is taken to be the amount payable on demand as at the date of preparation of the consolidated financial statement. The estimated fair value of fixed-maturity loans and borrowings is based on discounted cash flows using rates currently offered for loans and borrowings of similar remaining maturities.

iii. Trade receivables/payables, other receivables and other assets/liabilities For receivables/payables with a remaining life of less than one year, the nominal amount is deemed to reflect the fair value. Other receivables/payables are discounted to determine the fair value.

3. Significant accounting estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the financial statements according to the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU requires the application of certain significant accounting estimates. It also requires that the management, in the application process of the Group accounting principles, should use its judgement. These accounting estimates will, therefore, rarely conform to the actual results. Estimates and assumptions that have significant risk of causing a significant adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next accounting period are described below. The estimates and assumptions are continually reviewed. If the review of the accounting estimates applies only to one accounting period, it is reported in that period; if the review affects current and future accounting periods, it is reported in the period when the review was performed as well as in the future periods.

(a) Business combinations and purchase price allocation

The acquiree's or part of business's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are recognised and measured at their fair value on the date of acquisition. The allocation of the total cost among the net assets acquired for financial reporting purposes is performed with the support of professional advisors or the Group's management. The valuation is based on historical and prospective information available as of the date of the business combination. Any prospective information that may impact the fair value of the acquired assets is based on management's assumptions of the future development of competitive and economic environments. The results of the valuation analyses are also used for determining the amortisation and depreciation periods of the values allocated to specific intangible and tangible fixed assets.

On 1 May 2019, the Company acquired 90% stake in Mölltaler Gletscherbahnen GmbH for EUR 33 thousand and 90% stake in Mölltaler Gletscherbahnen GmbH & Co KG for 1.8 EUR. 10% stake in Mölltaler Gletscherbahnen GmbH for EUR 4 thousand and 10% stake in Mölltaler Gletscherbahnen GmbH & Co KG for EUR 0.2 were purchased by Tatry Mountain Resorts AT GmbH. In this way the Group acquired 100% of Grundstücksverwertungs-GmbH Flattach as 100% stake is owned by Mölltaler Gletscherbahnen GmbH & Co KG. The acquired Companies run the ski resorts Mölltaler Gletscher and Ankogel in Austria. The total value of assests acquired and liabilities assumed for Mölltaler Gletscherbahnen GmbH, Mölltaler Gletscherbahnen GmbH & Co KG and Grundstücksverwertungs-GmbH Flattach (together referred to as the "Mölltaler Group") was revalued to its fair value of assests of EUR 28,622 thousand and liabilities of EUR 27 363 thousand. As at 31 October 2019 no impairment allowance to the assets acquired was recorded.

The most important source materials for determination of the value of the Mölltaler Group was the business plan for the years 2019 – 2028 prepared by Group's management. The estimated discount rate used for cash flow projections was calculated as the weighted average cost of capital and amounted to 5.64% for the years 2019 to 2028. The Group assumed 6% annual increase of EBITDA, for the years after 2019.

If at acquisition date, the projected EBITDA of CGU Mölltaler Group, which is part of the projected cash flows was each year lower by 5% in comparison with management's estimates, the value of negative goodwill (gain on bargain purchase) would drop by EUR 1,162 thousand. If at acquisition date, the projected EBITDA of CGU Mölltaler Group, which is part of the projected cash flows was each year higher by 5% in comparison with management's estimates, the value of negative goodwill (gain on bargain purchase) would increase by EUR 1,162 thousand. If the discount rate increased by 0.5% in comparison with the management's estimate, i.e. its value was 6.14%, the value of negative goodwill (gain on bargain purchase) would drop by EUR 1,970 thousand. If the discount rate decreased by 0.5% in comparison with the management's estimate, i.e. its value was 5.14%, the value of negative goodwill (gain on bargain purchase) would increase by EUR 2,442 thousand.

On 31 December 2018, the company Tatry mountain resorts CR, a.s. aquired joint control and 50% of shares in the company OSTRAVICE HOTEL a.s. The agreed acquisition price was in the amount of CZK 53,797 thousand.; due on 31 December 2025. The main activities of OSTRAVICE HOTEL a.s. is rent of real estate, appartments and other rental properties. The company OSTRAVICE HOTEL a.s. is incorporated in the Czech republic. Total fair value of net assets acquired in OSTRAVICE HOTEL a.s. was in the amount of EUR 4,218 thousand at the date of 50% shares acquisition and joint control acquisition.

On 28 May 2018 the Company signed a purchase agreement of PHIG Holding GmbH, which was later renamed to Tatry mountain resorts AT, GmbH. The cost of acquisition was agreed on EUR 32 thousand, with the company becoming the sole owner of the business. The net asset value of the company at the time of acquisition amounted to EUR 32 thousand. Management

3. Significant accounting estimates and assumptions (continued)

of the Company considered possible effect of the fair value revaluation within purchase price allocation process and evaluated that fair value of the acquired assets is not significantly different from the accounting value.

On 5 May 2017 Tatry mountain resorts CR, a.s. was established, with a registered capital of CZK 2,000 thousand (EUR 75 thousand), the sole shareholder of which became Tatry mountain resorts, a.s.. On 21 December 2017 a contract for the "business rent" ("rent of the plant") was concluded between Ski Resort Ještěd a.s. and the company Tatry mountain resorts CR, a.s.. The business rent is agreed for 10 years with an option for the next 10 years that the company plans to use. The Group evaluated this transaction as a business acquisition in accordance with IFRS 3. The value of the acquired assets and liabilities at acquisition was determined by the Group in cooperation with professional advisers. The most important source materials for determining the value provided to the external consulting firm was the business plan for the years 2018 – 2037 prepared by Group's management. The estimated discount rate used for cash flow projections was calculated as the weighted average cost of capital and amounted to 6.5% for the years 2018 to 2037. In 2019 the Group assumed 44% annual increase of EBITDA, mainly due to the opening of new restaurants and businesses with sport services. For the years 2020 – 2022, the Group expects 2.2% annual increase and between 2023 and 2037, the Group expects an annual increase of the EBITDA indicator always by an additional 2% compared to the previous year. On 31 January 2018 the company Tatry mountain resorts CR, a.s. changed its name and was renamed to TMR Ještěd a.s.. If at day of acquisition, the projected EBITDA of CGU TMR Ještěd a.s., which is part of the projected cash flows was each year lower by 5% in comparison with management's estimates, the value of negative goodwill would drop by EUR 120 thousand (7%). If at day of acquisition, the projected EBITDA of CGU TMR Ještěd a.s., which is part of the projected cash flows was each year higher by 5% in comparison with management's estimates, the value of negative goodwill would increase by EUR 120 thousand (7%). If the discount rate increased by 0.5% in comparison with the management's estimate, i.e. its value was 7%, the value of negative goodwill would drop by EUR 92 thousand (5%). If the discount rate decreased by 0.5% in comparison with the management's estimate, i.e. its value was 6%, the value of negative goodwill would increase by EUR 98 thousand (5%).

On 6 December 2017 the Group signed a purchase contract with the company Wojewódzki Park Kultury i Wypoczynku S.A. ("WPKiW") to acquire an additional 25% shares of Ślaskie Wesole Miasteczko Sp. z o.o. ("SWM") in the total value of PLN 10,000 thousand. By signing this agreement, the Group became 100% owner of the SWM company.

(b) Real estate investments valuation

Real estate investments are recognised at fair value. The fair value of real estate investments is determined either by an independent court expert or the property is valued by the management (see Significant accounting policies, note p). In both cases the valuation is based on current market values and conditions. Market value represents the estimated value for which a property could be exchanged on the valuation day between potential seller and potential buyer in the form of a transaction based on independent parties after reasonable marketing, in which each party acts in an informed manner, prudently and without compulsion.

In the absence of actual market prices, the valuation takes into account the estimated net cash flows from property lease and capitalisation income, which reflects the specific risks inherent to a given market and also to the cash flows arising from the property.

The valuation reflects (where relevant) the type of lessees who use the property or are responsible for the fulfilment of lease liabilities or the type of prospective users, if the property is left non-rented, the general market perception of lessee solvency, the distribution of responsibilities related to maintenance and insurance of property between the Group and the lessees, and the remaining life of property.

As at 31 October 2019, the investments in real property cover three hotels (SKI, Liptov, Kosodrevina) and the accommodation facility Otupné with the aggregate book value of EUR 2,707 thousand (as at 31 October 2018: EUR 2,707 thousand), which are leased out to third parties that operate them, as well as forest areas and lands obtained as an acquisition in 2009 in the book value of EUR 5,622 thousand (as at 31 October 2018:EUR 4,572 thousand). The value of the hotels was estimated by the management in a manner specified above. The value of the land was determined by the management using market prices, and the final value is based on an estimate of the market price per square meter, depending on the type of land and market transactions for lands of similar character.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

3. Significant accounting estimates and assumptions (continued)

As at 31 October 2019, the Group management, based on the current contract conditions, revalued the value of investments property upwards by EUR 1,050 thousand (as at 31 October 2018: EUR 725 thousand). For the purposes of valuation the expert reports and available sale/purchase contracts were used.

If the fair value of the portion of investments in property which was determined based on management estimates differs from management estimates by 10%, the book value of investments in property would be higher or lower by EUR 833 thousand in comparison with the amount reported as at 31 October 2019 (as at 31 October 2018: EUR 728 thousand).

(c) Goodwill and impairment testing

As of the date of the financial statements, the Group assesses whether the goodwill has not been impaired. If the indicator of possible impairment is not detected, the Group is, in accordance with IAS 36, testing goodwill recognised in business combinations during the current accounting period and goodwill recognised in prior accounting periods for possible impairment annually on 31 October, i.e. as of the date of preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements.

On the day of acquisition, the acquired goodwill is assigned to individual cash-generating units (CGU) for which it is expected to benefit from synergies arising in business combinations.

Potential impairment of goodwill is determined by comparing the recoverable amount of CGU and its book value. The value of return is determined by the value in use. This value was derived from the business plan prepared by the management. The key prerequisite which was also the most sensitive factor in determining the recoverable amount, was expected revenues assessed

by the management, profitability and cost of capital used as the discount factor for future net cash flows. The expected revenues as well as profitability (EBITDA) are based on changes in customer target groups, strengthened marketing and increased quality of the services rendered.

Projecting of cash flows applied in determining the value in use covers a medium-term period of 5 years and subsequent extrapolation for the next period. Based on such standard level of cash flows, the terminal value was calculated with expected growth of cash flows at 1% p.a. (2018: 1%). Discount rates applied in the projecting of cash flows were calculated as weighted average cost of capital, representing 6.5% (without taking into account the effect of the corporate income tax) for 2019 and 6.81% for 2018 (after taking into account the effect of corporate the income tax).

In 2019 and 2018, goodwill was tested within CGU Vysoké Tatry, and the test did not show any reason for asset impairment. Goodwill acquired by the acquisition in 2015 of the Polish resort Ślaskie Wesole Miasteczko Sp. z o. o has been tested as of 31 October 2019 and 2018 as part of the impairment test. See Note 3(d). The test showed the need of asset impairment of CGU Ślaskie Wesole Miasteczko Sp. z o. o. in 2019.

If as at 31 October 2019, projected EBITDA of CGU Vysoké Tatry, being part of projected cash flows was lower than 5% in comparison with management estimates, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit in the location of High Tatras would drop by EUR 11,586 thousand. In such case, it would not be necessary to account for the asset impairment

or goodwill even at a lower EBIDTA reached. If the discount rate increased by 0.5% in comparison with the management estimate, i.e. its value was 7.00 %, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit for the location of High Tatras would drop by EUR 22,671 thousand. Here again it would not be necessary to account for asset impairment or goodwill even at a higher discount rate.

If as at 31 October 2018, projected EBITDA of CGU Vysoké Tatry, being part of projected cash flows was lower than 5% in comparison with management estimates, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit in the location of High Tatras would drop by EUR 10,160 thousand. In such case, it would not be necessary to account for the asset impairment or goodwill even at a lower EBIDTA reached. If the discount rate increased by 0.5% in comparison with the management estimate, i.e. its value was 7.00 %, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit for the location of High Tatras would drop by EUR 12,821 thousand. Here again it would not be necessary to account for asset impairment or goodwill even at a higher discount rate.

3. Significant accounting estimates and assumptions (continued)

(d) Assets impairment testing

As of the date of the financial statements, the Group assesses whether the assets have not been impaired. IAS 36 requires the testing of asset impairment in cases where external or internal indicators would point possible asset impairment.

The Group carries on 7 principal activities: running of mountain resorts, leisure parks, restaurant services, sports services and shops, accommodation services and real estate projects, namely in five locations: Jasná (the Low Tatras), in the High Tatras, and in Liptovský Mikuláš, and in Szczyrk and Chorzow in Poland and in Czech Republic with planned asset expansion also

to Austria. Each of the locations was assessed by the management as an individual cash-generating unit (CGU). The Group monitors the performance and creates independent budgets for individual cash-generating units. The Group assets were allocated to individual cash-generating units according to the material competence, whereas all assets, i.e. also the hotels, golf centres, catering establishments and sports services and shops are included in individual cash-generating units, except for ski lifts and cableways.

As of 31 October 2019 and 2018, the Group's management having considered the Group asset impairment, besides the impairment tests for the CGU Vysoke Tatry as goodwill is related to it as stated in par. 3(c), impairment tests have been done for both resorts (locations and individual CGUs) in Poland due to the fact that the planned indicators have not been achieved, which was analysed as an indicator of possible asset impairment of the Group. No indicators for asset impairment have been identified for CGUs in Slovakia.

Potential asset impairment is determined by comparing the recoverable value of the CGU and its book value. The recoverable value is determined by value in use. The value in use has been derived based on the business plan prepared by the management. Profitability and the cost of capital used as the discount factor for future free cash flows were the key assumption and the most sensitive indicator for determining the recoverable value. Expected revenues and profitability are based on changes in target customers groups, boosted marketing, and quality enhancement of services provided. Modelling of future cash flows used in determining the value in use covers a medium term of 5 years with the following extrapolation for next periods. Based on such normalized cash flows the terminal value was calculated assuming a terminal growth of 2.2% per anum. The discount rate used in projecting cash flows was calculated as the weighted average cost of capital and equalled 7.51% for Poland in 2019 (2018: 7.51%) (after taking into account the effect of corporate the income tax). The asset impairment test showed the need of asset impairment in the total value of EUR 3,865 thousand (2018: EUR 0 thousand) for CGU in Poland.

If the projected EBITDA of the CGU Ślaskie Wesole Miasteczko Sp. z o. o., as of 31 October 2019, which is a part of projected cash flows, was 5% lower each year in comparing with the managemen's estimate, the value in use of the CGU Ślaskie Wesole Miasteczko Sp. z o. o. would decrease by EUR 1,755 thousand. In this case it would be necessary to recognise asset impairment or goodwill by achieving of a lower EBITDA. If the discount rate was 0.5% higher than the management's estimate, i.e. it would equal 8.01%, the value in use of the CGU Ślaskie Wesole Miasteczko Sp. z o. o. would decrease by EUR 1,160 thousand. Even in this case it would be necessary to recognize asset impairment or goodwill when using a higher discount rate.

As of 31 October 2019 based on the Group's management assessment there was no indicator of imparment identified regarding the investment in subsidiary company, Szczyrkowski Ośrodek Narciarski, S.A., as the company met the expected results of projected EBIDTA.Consequently, the Group did not calculate impairment test for company Szczyrkowski Ośrodek Narciarski, S.A..

If the projected EBITDA of the CGU Ślaskie Wesole Miasteczko Sp. z o. o., as of 31 October 2018, which is a part of projected cash flows, was 5% lower each year in comparing with the managemen's estimate, the value in use of the CGU Ślaskie Wesole Miasteczko Sp. z o. o. would decrease by EUR 2,175 thousand. In this case it would be necessary to recognise asset impairment or goodwill by achieving of a lower EBITDA. If the discount rate was 0.5% higher than the management's estimate, i.e. it would equal 8.01%, the value in use of the CGU Ślaskie Wesole Miasteczko Sp. z o. o. would decrease by EUR 3,494 thousand. Even in this case it would be necessary to recognize asset impairment or goodwill when using a higher discount rate.

If the projected EBITDA of the CGU Szczyrkowski Ośrodek Narciarski, S.A, as of 31 October 2018, which is a part of projected cash flows, was 5% lower each year in comparing with the managemen's estimate, the value in use of the CGU Szczyrkowski Ośrodek Narciarski, S.A, would decrease by EUR 5,273 thousand. In this case it would not be necessary to recognise asset.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

3. Significant accounting estimates and assumptions (continued)

impairment or goodwill even by achieving of a lower EBITDA. If the discount rate was 0.5% higher than the management's estimate, i.e. it would equal 8.01%, the value in use of the CGU Szczyrkowski Ośrodek Narciarski, S.A,. would decrease by EUR 8,755 thousand. Even in this case it would not be necessary to recognize asset impairment or goodwill not even when using a higher discount rate.

(e) Financial instruments at fair value

The fair value of financial instruments is determined on the basis of:

Level 1: quoted market prices (not adjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are comparable for the asset or liability, either

directly (i.e. as prices of similar instruments) or indirectly (i.e. derived from such prices) Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on comparable market data (incomparable inputs)

If the quoted market price is not available, the fair value of the instrument is estimated using valuation techniques. When using the valuation models, the management uses estimates and assumptions which are consistent with available information about estimates and assumptions which have been used by market participants to determine the prices of a particular financial instrument.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

3. Significant accounting estimates and assumptions (continued)

As at 31 October 2018 the Company registered the financial investment (19% share) in the company CAREPAR, a.s. in amount of EUR 4,498 thousand. This Company owned 50% share in the company MELIDA a.s., which rents and operates the ski resort Špindlerov Mlyn in the Czech Republic. Since as at 31 October 2018, CAREPAR, a.s. does not account for any other significant assets or liabilities apart from the share in MELIDA a.s., the fair value of the investment in CAREPAR, a.s. was set as 9.5%

of the estimated fair value of MELIDA a.s.

As at 31 October 2019, after the assessment of the Group management, no indicator of significat change in financial investment value in the company MELIDA a.s was identified. Therefore, no impairment allowance was accounted for related to MELIDA a.s.

As at 31 October 2018 and 201, the fair value of MELIDA a.s. was estimated by the Group management using the discounted cash flow method, with the application of inputs from the business plan and of cash flow estimates. The business plan and cash flow estimates were consistently reviewed before application by Group management. The rent of the ski resort was based on the signed appendix no. 2, which came into effect on 22 March 2018, extended until 2057. Therefore cash flows projection was from 2018 to 2057. The main preconditions that were used in the valuation, were estimated cash flows, where the most important assumptions estimated by the management included EBITDA, its growth and discount rate.

EBIDTA projected for 2019 represented the value of EUR 5,890 thousand. For financial year 2019, the grow by 5% was originally forecasted, that was also achieved, for 2020 and 2021 the grow by 3% is expected, from 2022 to 2023 it is expected to grow by 2% per anum and from 2024 to 2057 by 1% per anum. The discount rate applied in the valuation of such financial assets used as at 31 October 2018, representing the required rate of return of own share capital, was of 7.80% (2017: 8.70%).

If in the calculation as at 31 October 2018 the EBITDA projected for MELIDA a.s., which is a part of the projected cash flows, was 5% lower every year compared to the management estimates, the value of investment in CAREPAR, a.s. would drop by EUR 341 thousand. If the discount rate increased by 0.5% in comparison with the management estimate, i.e. its value would be 8.30%, the value of CAREPAR, a.s. would drop by EUR 242 thousand.

29. Hedge accounting

The Group applies hedge accounting for the first time in current year. The Group applies only cash-flow hedges and hedges only against foreign currency risk.

Since the Grouphas issued bonds, denominated in CZK in amount of EUR 58.7 million, the currency gap has widened, and the Group decided to manage the foreign currency risk against the Czech Crown on this particular instrument by hedging against changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

The Group has decided not to hedge any other risks (interest rate risk,..) arising from this particular instrument besides the foreign currency risk, as they are managed otherwise. Please refer to section financial risks for further information.

The hedged item is a long-term bond denominated in CZK with fixed repayment schedule.

Hedging instrument is a Foreign currency swap, swapping the CZK repayments on the bond exposure for repayments in EUR, retaining the fixed nature of interest rates in both currencies.

There is an economic relationship between the hedged items and the hedging instruments as the terms of the foreign exchange and swap contracts match the terms of the bond (i.e., notional amount and repayment schedules). The Group has established a hedge ratio of 1:1 for the hedging relationships as the underlying risk of the foreign exchange swap contracts are identical to the hedged risk components. As the critical terms of the foreign exchange and swap contracts match the terms of the bond (i.e., notional amount and repayment schedules), the Group expects the hedging relationship to be effective to a high degree.

The hedge ineffectiveness can arise, when the Group stops paying the bond or eventually repays greater portion than intended by repayment schedule. The Group plans to repay the bond in line with the repayment schedule.

The profile of the nominal amount of the hedging instrument – hedging instrument has a fixed maturity of November 2022 for the whole of 57.9 mil EUR. Forward rate used in the contract is 25.870 CZK / 1 EUR.

There is no impact of hedge accounting for comparative period.

36. Information about risk management

This section provides details about the risks the Group is exposed to and about the method of management thereof. The Group is exposed to risk in the following areas:

  • Credit risk
  • Liquidity risk
  • Market risk
  • Operational risk

The management is fully responsible for the establishment and supervision of the Group's risk management.

Credit risk

The Group's primary exposure to credit risk arises through its trade receivables, lease receivables, other receivables and advances and loans provided. The amount of credit risk exposure is represented by the carrying amounts of these assets in the balance sheet if no form of guarantee is issued. The carrying amount of receivables, advances and loans provided represents the maximum accounting loss that would have to be recognised if the counterparty completely failed to perform its contractual obligations and all collaterals and guarantees would be of no value. Therefore, this value highly exceeds the expected losses included in the provision for unrecoverable receivables. Before the conclusion of major contracts, the Group's management evaluates the credit risk related to the counterparty at its regular meetings. Provided material risks are identified, the Group withdraws from concluding the contract.

36. Information about risk management (continued)

Loans provided

The Company assigns a level of credit risk to the loans provided on the basis of data that is expected to predict credit risk (including but not limited to external ratings, financial statements, management accounts and cash flow projections and available counterparty press releases), potential days past due and applying experienced credit judgment. The grades of credit risk are defined by qualitative and quantitative factors that indicate the risk of default and are consistent with external credit rating definitions from credit rating agencies such as Moody's and Standard & Poors. The probability of default is then assigned based on historical data collected by these agencies. The loss given default (LGD) parameters generally reflect an expected rate of return of 40%, except when a borrowing is reduced by a loan.

Loss given

(LGD)

Sensitivity analysis

If the borrower's credit quality was changed, the probability of default (PD) would also change. If the PD increased by 10%, the ECL would increase by EUR 19 thousand. If the PD decreased by 10%, the ECL would decrease by EUR 19 thousand. EUR. The Company also takes into account the differences between the economic conditions during the period in which the historical data were collected, the current conditions and the Company's view on the economic conditions over the expected life of the loan.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises in the general financing of the Group's activities and financial positions. It includes the risk of being unable to finance assets at an agreed maturity and interest rate and inability to realize assets at a reasonable price in a reasonable time frame. Individual companies in the Group use different methods of managing liquidity risk. Group's Management focuses on managing and monitoring the liquidity of each company controlled by the Group. In order to manage liquidity, the management changed its accounting period to a financial year ending 31 October. In the first half of its accounting period the Group has the winter season representing 60% of the Group's income. Based on the development in the first half of the year, the Group is able, in good time, to affect the income and expenditures to maintain sufficient liquidity. In the Vysoké Tatry resort, seasonality is compensated also by a strong summer season, providing for a more stable liquidity through the entire year.

The following table includes an analysis of financial assets and liabilities of the Group classified by the remaining maturity. This analysis represents the most prudent alternative of the remaining maturities including the interest. Therefore, the earliest repayment possible is reported for liabilities and the latest repayment possible is reported for assets. Assets and liabilities without a defined maturity are reported together in the "not specified" category.

As of 31 October 2019, the Group was exposed to the following liquidity risk:

As of 31 October 2019, loans granted for up to 1 year amount to EUR 27,986 thousand (as of 31 October 2018: EUR 22,198 thousand), most of which are payable at request or until October 2020. These loans will not be paid off within a year. The Group plans to draw these financial resources according to its needs in order to finance its investment activity and acquisitions. The loan granted is expected to be paid off within 3 years.

The carrying amount of Other receivables includes the advances provided where they are not expected to be settled in cash, but by means of a transfer of shares within 3 years.

The management of the Group plans to repay issued bonds in the future by issuing new bonds. See also Note 38 – Subsequent events.

The carrying amount of other receivables includes the advances provided where they are not expected to be settled in cash, but by means of a transfer of shares.

Foreign exchange risk

Because of the acquisition of subsidiaries in Poland and Czech Republic, the Group is primarily exposed to foreign exchange risk of Polish zloty and Czech crown versus euro. The Management regularly monitors whether the difference between receivables and payables in the foreign currency is not too big.

Since the Grouphas issued bonds, denominated in CZK in amount of EUR 58.7 million, the currency gap has widened, and the Group decided to manage the foreign currency risk against the Czech Crown on this particular instrument by hedging against changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For more information, see Note 29 – Hedge accounting.

Other assets and liabilities of the Group are denominated in euros. There is a secondary risk that the weakening of the Czech crown, Polish zloty or Russian rouble against the euro would lead to a reduction in the number of visitors to Slovakia from these countries. The Group's management is not able to quantify value of this risk for sure.

Sensitivity analysis

Appreciation of euro by 1% versus Polish zloty and Czech crown would have the following impact on financial assets and financial liabilities of the Group:

Effect on the portfolio

in TEUR 2019 2018
PLN 1 061 846
CZK 721 92

Depreciation of euro by 1% versus Polish zloty and Czech crown would have a comparably large but opposite impact on financial assets and financial liabilities of the Group as opposed to appreciation.

Interest rate risk

The Group's operations are subject to the risk of interest rate fluctuations. The volume of this risk equals the sum of interestearning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for which the interest rate differs at maturity or re-pricing compared to current interest rates. The period for which the interest rate of a financial instrument is fixed therefore indicates to what extent the Group is exposed to interest rate risk.

The overview below provides information about the extent of the Group's interest rate exposure based on the contractual maturity date of its financial instruments.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

36. Information about risk management (continued)

As of 31 October 2019 and 31 October 2018, the Group has the following interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities:

in TEUR 31.10.2019 31.10.2018

Payables 279 128 241 095
Variable interest rate
Assets - -
Payables 40 203 115 025

Sensitivity analysis for instruments with variable interest rate A change of 100 basis points in interest rates would have the following effect on profit or loss and cash flow sensitivity:

in TEUR Profit (Loss)
100 bb growth 100 bb decline
31 October 2019
Instruments with variable interest rate -402 402
Effect -402 402
in TEUR Profit (Loss)
100 bb growth 100 bb decline

31 October 2018

Instruments with variable interest rate -1 150 1 150
Effect -1 150 1 150

Interest-bearing liabilities of the Group bear variable interest rates based on EURIBOR. The Group considers a variable interest rate to be a self-management of the interest rate risk. EURIBOR grows under economic expansion, but also the economic performance of the population grows and the Group has higher revenues and earnings. It is quite the opposite under economic recession.

Operational risk

Operational risk is the risk of loss arising from embezzlement, unauthorised activities, error, omission, inefficiency or system failure. This risk arises in the case of all of the Group's activities and all companies within the Group are exposed to such risk. Operational risk includes also the risk of lawsuit.

The Group's objective is to manage the operational risk so as to prevent financial losses and damage to Group's reputation within the effectiveness of costs spent to achieve this objective, while avoiding measures hindering initiative and creativity. The primary responsibility for the implementation of controls to address operational risk is assigned to the Group's management. This responsibility is supported by preparation of standards for management of operational risk applicable for the whole Group. Operational risk is managed by a system of directives, minutes from meetings and control mechanisms. The Group has a controlling department established, where it tries to eliminate all operational risks by way of regular checks.

The Group is also exposed to risk of adverse weather-related conditions. The resort attendance is dependent on the volume and period of snow. Adverse conditions negatively affect the number of skiers and the Group's revenues or profit or loss. Warm weather may disproportionately increase the cost of production of artificial snow and change the area for skiing. Historically, the region of the Low Tatras had an average of 80 cm of snow during the winter season and the High Tatras region had 85 cm of snow. The start of the winter season and the snow conditions affect the perception of the whole season by skiers. The Group is unable to reliably predict the snow conditions at the beginning of the winter season. Thanks to the use of snow-making systems, snow conditions during the winter season are stable every year.

37. Related parties

Identification of related parties

As shown in the following overview, the Group has a related-party relationship with its shareholders who have significant influence in the Group and other parties; as of 31 October 2019 and 31 October 2018 or during the period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019 and 1 November 2017 to 31 October 2018:

  • (1) Companies with joint control or significant influence over the entity and its subsidiaries or associates,
  • (2) Joint ventures in which the Group is a partner,
  • (3) Associates,
  • (4) Members of the company's top management or shareholders of the Group (see also Note 10 Personnel expenses)

Information about remuneration of key management is provided in Note 10 – Personnel expenses.

Apart from personnel expenses, the Group has receivables towards key management as of 31 October 2019 EUR 0 thousand (2018: EUR 68 thousand), due the loans provided and revenues from these loans in amount of EUR 0 thousand for the accounting period 2019 (2018: EUR 3 thousand).

Since none of the shareholders has an ownership exceeding 20% or otherwise has significant influence in the Group, shareholders are not recognised as related parties, and the transactions mentioned above or any balances are not understood as transactions with related parties.

38. Subsequent events

On 28 January 2020, the Group paid EUR 5,000 thousand, as an advance on the future purchase of EUROCOM Investment s.r.o, which operates the aquapark Bešeňová.

On 3 February 2020, the Group redeemed the TMR II bond coupon in the amount of EUR 6,600 thousand.

On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic in relation to the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19). The COVID-19 pandemic also affects the Group which was hit by the virus at the end of its winter season and spring midseason.

On 16 March 2020, the Slovak Government issued an order aimed at containing the virus, as a consequence of which the Group had to close all its mountain resorts, water parks and other operations.

This resulted in a fall in sales, but because winter earnings had largely been accrued when the restrictions came into force, the negative effect on the revenue side was not significant. For this reason, as at the date of issuing the consolidated financial statements, the Group had a significant amount of available cash and cash equivalents and highly positive working capital. As of 28 February 2020, the volume of cash and cash equivalents increased by more than 30% compared to the end of the financial year.

The Group expects a maximum reduction in sales at the beginning of the spring season of between EUR 7,000 thousand and EUR 8,000 thousand, based on pandemic restrictions continuing for two months. It will compensate for lower revenue through cost-side savings and by non-realizing/postponing a portion of investments to the following year. If the virus restrictions remain in place for two months, there is likely to be only a minimal negative effect on the summer season, which begins no earlier than in the first half of June. Moreover, the closures were enforced at a time of limited Group activity at the end of the winter season, when many of its resorts and hotels are routinely closed annually.

Furthermore, it is highly probable that due to the pandemic and long after its effective containment, natural caution will inhibit people from traveling abroad. This means that more Slovaks, Czechs and Poles will spend summer holidays in their home countries, in which the Group operates.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

38. Subsequent events (continued)

In the event that the effects of the pandemic worsen, the Group will switch to a "massive cost-saving regime" and postpone all planned investments until the following year. The Group is currently not committed to any significant investment from which it could not withdraw. In order to address liquidity, the Group has already begun to actively negotiate with its financial creditors the postponement of loan repayments by a year. It has also been discussing the possibility of drawing new bridging loans to cover its operating costs and maintain its financial stability.

The Group's management ordinarily plans monthly cash flows which, due to the current situation, are being reviewed weekly.

Due to its available cash and cash equivalents at the end of the winter season, plus short-term receivables expected to be repaid in the near future, the Group can meet its obligations related to loans and issued bonds for at least a further four months, assuming no change in the situation. In the case of bonds, the Group is obliged to repay only interest payments during the upcoming year. In the event of a prolonged pandemic and financial difficulties, the Group is able to postpone the repayment of interest after approval of major bondholders, who hold more than 10%.

Additionally, the Group has the option of using an approved overdraft account opened with Poštová banka, a.s. to ensure continuity of its cash flows.

Following the closure of the Group's resorts under the government restrictions, the Group's management began discussions with employee representatives to address the situation in the best possible way, within the constraints of labor law. At the time of issuing the financial statements, negotiations are still ongoing, while administrative staff work via remote access from home. A large number of Group's employees are seasonal employees and if the pandemic restrictions continue until the beginning of the summer season, they will not be contracted until the Group's resorts reopen.

In the opinion of the Group's management, the factors above support the assertion that the Group will have sufficient resources to continue for at least 12 months from the date of issuing the financial statements. The Group's management has concluded that the extent of the possible outcomes considered in adopting this judgment does not give rise to significant uncertainties related to events or conditions that could raise serious doubts about the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.

39. Capital commitments and capital management

In the course of 2014, the Group made two bond issues (see Note 32 - Bonds issued) in the total nominal value of EUR 180,000 thousand, which have been admitted to trading on the Bratislava Stock Exchange since 19 February 2014. The Group committed to maintain the ratio of senior debt (excluding the bonds TMR II) / EBITDA at the level up to 6.5 and DSCR (including expenses related to payment of coupons of bonds TMR I and II) at the level of at least 1.00.

On 10 October 2018, the Group issued the third issue of TMR III bonds at a total nominal value of EUR 90,000 thousand; will be due in 2024. On 7 November 2018, the Group issued the fourth bond issue TMR F. CR in the nominal value of CZK 1,500 million, with maturity in 2022. As of the date of the financial statement, the bonds from the fourth issue were sold in the full amount. Both emitions were subscribed in the full amount by the day of financial statement preparation.

Interest income on the TMR III bond will be paid for each income period on a semi-annual basis, on 10 October and 10 April each year, starting on 10 April 2019. The TMR III bond has maturity on 10 October 2024. Interest income on the TMR F. CR bond will be paid for each income period on a semi-annual basis, on 7 November and 7 May each year, starting on 10 April 2019 The TMR F. CR bond has maturity on 7 November 2022.

The Group's management deals with capital management in order to secure a sufficient amount of funds for the planned investments in the period for which the investments were planned, if necessary in cooperation with bank loans. Neither the Group nor any of its subsidiaries, are subject to any external capital management requirements. No changes occurred in the approach of the Group's management to capital management occurred in the period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019.

40. Contingent assets and contingent liabilities

Since many areas of the Slovak tax legislation have yet to be sufficiently tested in practice, there is an uncertainty about the application of the tax legislation in these areas by tax authorities. The extent of the uncertainty cannot be quantified and will only cease once legislative precedents or official interpretations of the authorities are set.

The Group is a party to several legal disputes. The maximum amount of compensation for all legal disputes can amount up to EUR 576 thousand plus related charges and fees.

Independent Auditor's Report

Impairment of loans provided and other receivables

As at 31 October 2019 the carrying amount of loans provided and other receivables (long term and short term): EUR 57,134 thousand; related impairment allowance: EUR 191 thousand; impairment loss for the year then ended: EUR 191 thousand.

Refer to Notes 2e) and 2i) (Summary of significant accounting policies) and Notes 20 and 22 (Loans provided and Other receivables) of the consolidated financial statements.

Key audit matter: Our response:

As at 31 October 2019, loans provided, and other receivables are represented primarily by an advance payment for shares in a company operating a ski resort of EUR 19,451 thousand and a loan provided to that entity of EUR 13,975 thousand.

Loans provided and other receivables are assessed by the Group for impairment as at each reporting date, both at an individual asset and collective basis. Management measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to expected credit losses (ECLs) being a probability weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of an expected cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that it expects to receive). The estimate takes into account, among other things, repayment history and past credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors and an assessment of both the current and forecast general economic conditions at the reporting date.

For collectively assessed exposures, the Group uses statistical models with parameters such as the probability of default (PD) and loss given default (LGD) using historical data, as adjusted for appropriate forward-looking information.

We identified impairment of loans provided and other receivables as a key audit matter because these assets are material to the Group and due to the fact,

Our audit procedures in the area, performed where applicable, with the assistance from our own financial instrument's specialists, included:

  • Updating understanding of and assessing the design and implementation of key internal controls over the credit control, the loans and other receivables collection process and making loss allowances for loans provided and other receivables;
  • Assessment of the appropriateness of the Group's impairment methodology against the relevant financial reporting requirements;
  • Evaluating whether the Group's estimates of expected credit losses appropriately consider both current economic conditions and forwardlooking information;
  • Assessment of the accuracy and completeness of the Group's ECL estimates at 31 October 2019 including:

For loans and other receivables assessed individually, for a risk-based sample of debtors:

Inspecting the debtors' most recent financial statements, credit terms and historical repayment patters, and making corroborating inquiries of the Group's CFO and relevant finance

Independent Auditors' Report

To the Shareholders, Supervisory Board and Board of Directors of Tatry mountain resorts, a.s.:

Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Tatry mountain resorts, a. s. ("The Company") and its subsidiaries ("the Group"), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 October 2019, consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 October 2019, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing ("ISAs"). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements of the Act No. 423/2015 Coll. on statutory audit and on amendments to Act No. 431/2002 Coll. on accounting as amended ("the Act on Statutory Audit") including the Code of Ethics for an Auditor that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Impact of COVID-19 and related going concern considerations

Refer to Note 2(b) (Going concern) and 38 (Subsequent events) of the consolidated financial statements

Key audit matter: Our response:

The World Health Organization declared on 11 March 2020 the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak a pandemic, and also, on 16 March 2020, the Decree of the Government of the Slovak Republic, was issued on 16 March 2020, whereby Slovakia's government declared the state of emergency. The measures taken by the government to counter the effects of the outbreak include border closures, quarantine, severe limitations imposed on cross-border and domestic transportation, ban on social, cultural, leisure or sport events, among other things. As a consequence of the developments, the Group was forced to close all its mountain resorts as well as water parks and other operations until at least 26 March 2020.

The Group's consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. Our procedures in this area included, among others:

The Group's going concern assessment was based on cash flow forecasts which in management's view support the assertion that the Group will have sufficient resources to continue for a period of at least 12 months from the reporting date.

The preparation of these forecasts incorporated a number of assumptions and significant judgment under a number of scenarios, including those considered by management to be severe but plausible, such as length of the outbreak exceeding 2 months. As part of the assessment, the Group also considered a number of actions aimed at alleviating the potential disruption to its business and liquidity position, such as postponing the loan instalments, drawing of new loans

  • Inspecting the Management Board's assessment of the going concern basis of accounting, including their assessment of the business/operating and liquidity risks arising from the COVID-19 outbreak, and plans for further actions in response to the risks identified;
  • inquiring of the chairman of the board and the board member responsible for the business strategy, regarding the Group's plans for future actions in order to alleviate the effects of the outbreak, whether and to what extent the outcome of these plans is likely to improve the situation and whether the plans are feasible in the circumstances;
  • Analyzing the Group's net working capital position as at 31 October 2019 and 29 February 2020 to assess the availability of liquid funds to settle short-term financial obligations;
  • Considering whether any additional facts or information have become available since the date on which the Group made its assessment;
  • Confirming the existence of the Group's banking overdraft facilities to third party confirmations, including the approval of extension of the existing facilities by the lenders as at 31 October 2019 and 29 February 2020;

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the statutory body.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the statutory body's use of the going concern conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated that achieves fair presentation.

If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However, future events or

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Independent Auditor's Report Independent Auditor's Report

Consolidated Financial Statements

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters.

We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

Reporting on Information in the Annual Report

The statutory body is responsible for the information in the Annual Report prepared in accordance with the Act No. 431/2002 Coll. on Accounting as amended ("the Act on Accounting"). Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover other information in the Annual Report.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the Annual Report and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the audited consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

With respect to the Annual Report of the Group, we consider whether it includes the disclosures required by the Act on Accounting.

Based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit of the consolidated financial statements, in our opinion:

  • the information given in the Annual Report for the year ended 31 October 2019 is consistent with the consolidated financial statements prepared for the same financial year; and
  • the Annual Report contains information according to the Act on Accounting

In addition, we will report whether we have identified any material misstatement in the Annual Report in light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and its environment that we have acquired during the course of the audit of the consolidated financial statements. We have nothing to report.

2. Significant accounting policies

(a) Statement of compliance

The separate financial statements for the period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019 have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the EU and in accordance with Art 17a), par. 3 of Act No. 431/2002 Coll. of the National Council of the Slovak Republic on Accounting ("Act on Accounting").

Since the company has share in subsidiaries, IFRS and the Act on Accounting require the preparation of consolidated financial statement. The company has not consolidated its subsidiaries in this separate financial statement. The investments in subsidiaries are recognized at cost (net of impairment losses, if any) and dividend returns are recognized at the moment when the Company became entitled to receiving dividends from those companies. The Company applies similar treatment to associates. The Company prepares consolidated financial statements that shall be published by the end of February 2020 and that shall be available at the Company headquarters and on the Company's website.

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 28 February 2020.

(b) Basis of preparation

The separate financial statements have been prepared based on the historical cost principle, while the investment property and financial instruments measured at fair value were revalued to their fair value through profit or loss.

The Company's separate financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis.

The separate financial statements have been prepared in thousands EUR.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU requires the application of various judgements, assumptions and estimates which affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. However, actual results will likely differ from these estimates. Critical accounting estimates and judgements which were made by management and which bear a significant risk of material adjustment in the next accounting period are discussed in Note 3– Critical accounting estimates and assumptions.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of revision and also in future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

(c) Adoption of new standards and interpretations

When preparing the separate financial statements, the Company applied the following International Financial Reporting Standards, amendments to the standards and interpretations as adopted by the EU, which are effective for the accounting period starting 1 November 2018:

In July 2014, the IASB issued final version of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments that replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and all previous versions of IFRS 9. IFRS 9 comprises three aspects of accounting: recognition and measurement, impairment losses and hedge accounting. IFRS 9 is effective from 1 January 2018. Early application is permitted. Except for hedge accounting, the standard should be applied retrospectively. The comparative information of prior periods is not required.

The adoption of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and its impact on the financial statements is described in Notes e) and f).

The application of the standards mentioned below has had no significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

(d) International financial reporting standards that were issued but not yet effective

The Company did not apply any International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union before the date they become effective. In case that the transition arrangements allow entities to choose between prospective or retrospective approach, the Company decided to apply these standards prospectively.

As at 31 Ooctober 2019, the following International Financial Reporting Standards, amendments to standards and interpretations as adopted by the European Union were issued but not yet effective, and have not been applied by the Company in preparing these financial statements:

  • IFRS 3 Business Combinations. The amendment clarifies the definition of 'business' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020, the amendment is not yet endorsed by the EU)
  • IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement. The amendment is related to the prepayment features with negative compensation (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)
  • IFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, the EC has decided not to launch the endorsement process and to wait for the final IFRS Standard)
  • IFRS 16 Leases (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019) IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021, the standard is not yet endorsed by the EU)
  • IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. The amendment clarifies the definition of 'materiality' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020, the amendment is not yet endorsed by the EU) IAS 19 Employee Benefits. The amendment clarifies changes, curtailment or settlement of plans (effective for annual
  • periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)
  • IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. The amendment refers to the long-term interests in associates and joint ventures (the amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)
  • IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (the standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)
  • Annual improvements to IFRS standards 2015-2017 Cycle (issued in December 2017, effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

Except for impact of IFRS 16, the Company does not expect the standards to have a material impact on the financial statements.

IFRS 16 Leases

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. Earlier application is permitted if the entity also applies IFRS 15.

IFRS 16 supersedes IAS 17 Leases and related interpretations. The standard eliminates the current dual accounting model for lessees and instead requires companies to bring most leases on-balance sheet under a single model, eliminating the distinction between operating and finance leases.

Under IFRS 16, a contract is, or contains, a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period in exchange for consideration. For such contracts, the new model requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. The right-of-use asset is amortized and the liability accrues interest. This will result in a front-loaded pattern of expense for most leases, even when the lessee pays constant annual rentals.

The new standard introduces several limited scope exceptions for lessees which include:

  • Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less and containing no purchase options, and
  • Leases where the underlying asset has a low value ('small-ticket' leases).

Lessor accounting, however, shall remain largely unchanged and the distinction between operating and finance leases will be retained.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

In May 2014, IASB issued IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective for the periods starting on 1 January 2018 with earlier adoption permitted. IFRS 15 defines the principles for accounting for revenues and will be applicable to all contracts concluded with customers. The new Standard provides a framework that replaces existing revenue recognition guidance in IFRS. Entities will adopt a five-step model to determine when to recognise revenue, and at what amount. The new model specifies that revenue should be recognised when (or as) an entity transfers control of goods or services to a customer at the amount to which the entity expects to be entitled. Depending on whether certain criteria are met, revenue is recognised:

  • over time, in a manner that depicts the entity's performance; or
  • at a point in time, when control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer.

IFRS 15 also establishes the principles that an entity shall apply to provide qualitative and quantitative disclosures which provide useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with a customer.

The Company evaluated the impact of IFRS 15 on the financial statements of the Company and came to the conclusion that the first-time adoption of the standard does not have material impact on the financial statements due to the nature and types of revenue that the Company generates.

The Interpretation IFRIC Interpretation 22 Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration clarifies that, in determining the spot exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income (or part of it) on the derecognition of a non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability relating to advance consideration, the date of the transaction is the date on which an entity initially recognises the non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising from the advance consideration. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, then the entity must determine the transaction date for each payment or receipt of advance consideration.

The Interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. Early application of interpretation is permitted and must be disclosed. Since the Company's current practice is in line with the Interpretation, the Company assessed that the Interpretation does not have a material impact on the financial statements.

The amendments to IAS 40 Transfers of Investment Property is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 and should be applied prospectively. Early application is permitted. The amendments clarify when an entity should transfer property, including property under construction or development into, or out of investment property. A mere change in management's intentions for the use of a properly does not provide evidence of a change in use. The amendments state that a change in use occurs when the property meets, or ceases to meet, the definition of investmnet property and there is evidence of the change in use.

The Company assessed that the first-time adoption of the amendments does not have significant impact on the financial statements, as the Company transfer property into, or out of investment property only in case of the change in the use of the property.

The following standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2018:

  • Amendments to IFRS 2: Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions. The amendments clarify share-based payment accounting in various areas
  • Annual Improvements to IFRS (2014-2016 Cycle) contain two amendments to standards.

Above mentioned amendments do not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

It is expected, that first-time adoption of the standard will have significant impact on the financial statements, since it is required to recognise assets and liabilities from operating leases in statement of financial position, where the Company act as a lessee. This applies mainly on operating lease of lands. The character and and expenses related to these lease will change, as the Company will report depreciation expense from the right to use the asset and interest expense from liabilities. The Company is now recording expenses from operating lease on a linear basis and the asset and liabilities only in time inconsistency between actual lease payment and recorded expense. Instead, the Company will recognize lease payments within lease liability.

Based on the information available, the Company assumes that the impact on the financial statements as at 1 November 2019 will be following:

Statement of financial position
in thousands of euro 1 November 2019
Increase in property and plant 19 801
Increase in other non-current tangible assets 629
Increase in long-term loans 20 430
Net impact on equity 0

The Company plans to apply IFRS 16 initially on 1 January 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. Therefore, the cumulative effect of adopting IFRS 16 will be recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at 1 Novemebr 2019, without any adjustment to comparable information.

The Company intends to apply the practical expedient to grandfather the definition of lease on transition. This means that it will apply IFRS 16 to all contracts entered before 1 Novemebr 2019 and identified as leases in accordance with IAS 17 and IFRIC 4.

The Company also intends to apply an exemption for short-term contracts. This means that it will not apply IFRS 16 to those contracts that were entered into at the date of initial adoption for the period of less than 12 months and to the low value contracts.

Financial instruments (except for financial liabilities)

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

Financial instruments

i. Initial recognition and measurement of financial asset Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset's contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company's business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient (ie. the Company measures life-time credit losses). The Company initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under IFRS 15.

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are 'solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)' on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level.

The Company's business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both.

ii. Subsequent measurement

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:

  • Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments)
  • Financial assets at fair value through OCI with recycling of cumulative gains and losses (debt instruments)
  • derecognition (equity instruments)
  • Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets designated at fair value through OCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon

iii. Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments)

The Company measures financial assets at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met: The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect

The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of

  • contractual cash flows, and
  • principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding

Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest (EIR) method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.

The Company's financial assets at amortised cost includes Trade receivables, Other receivables and Loans provided.

(f) Initial application of IFRS 9 Financial instruments

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, bringing together all three aspects of the accounting for financial instruments: classification and measurement; impairment; and hedge accounting.

The Company has applied IFRS 9 with the initial application date as of 1 November 2018.

The nature of these adjustments are described below:

i. Classification and measurement

Under IFRS 9, debt instruments are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss, amortised cost, or fair value through OCI. The classification is based on two criteria: the Company's business model for managing the assets; and whether the instruments' contractual cash flows represent 'solely payments of principal and interest' on the principal amount outstanding.

The assessment of the Company's business model was made as of the date of initial application, 1 November 2018, and then applied retrospectively to those financial assets that were not derecognised before 1 November 2018. The assessment of whether contractual cash flows on debt instruments are solely comprised of principal and interest was made based on the facts and circumstances as at the initial recognition of the assets.

The classification and measurement requirements of IFRS 9 did not have a significant impact on the Company. The Company continued measuring at fair value all financial assets previously held at fair value under IAS 39.

The Company has not designated any financial liabilities as at fair value through profit or loss. There are no changes in classification and measurement for the Company's financial liabilities.

ii. Impairment

The adoption of IFRS 9 has fundamentally changed the accounting for impairment losses for financial assets by replacing IAS 39's incurred loss approach with a forward-looking expected credit loss (ECL) approach. IFRS 9 requires the Company to recognise an allowance for ECLs for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or loss and contract assets.

Under IFRS 9, loss allowances are be measured on either of the following bases:

  • 12-month ECLs: these are ECLs that result from possible default events within the 12 months after the reporting date; and
  • Lifetime ECLs: these are ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

IFRS 9 includes a new general hedge accounting model, which aligns hedge accounting more closely with risk management. The types of hedging relationships – fair value, cash flow and foreign operation net investment – remain unchanged, but additional judgment is required. This change had no impact on the Company as the hedging relationships are simple and straight-forward.

The standard includes new requirements for achieving, continuing and discontinuing hedge accounting and allows additional risks to be designated as hedged items. Extensive additional disclosures about company risk management and its hedging activities are required.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as:

Cash flow hedges when hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to a particular risk

associated with a recognised asset or liability

The Company does not use any other form of hedges.

The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the Company will assess whether the hedging relationship meets the hedge effectiveness requirements (including the analysis of sources of hedge ineffectiveness and how the hedge ratio is determined). A hedging relationship qualifies for hedge accounting if it meets all of the following effectiveness requirements:

  • There is 'an economic relationship' between the hedged item and the hedging instrument.
  • The effect of credit risk does not 'dominate the value changes' that result from that economic relationship.
  • of hedged item.

The hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that resulting from the quantity of the hedged item that the Group actually hedges and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the Group actually uses to hedge that quantity

Hedges that meet all the qualifying criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for, as described below:

Cash flow hedges

Separate Financial Statements Separate Financial Statements Tatry mountain resorts a.s.

The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised in OCI in the cash flow hedge reserve, while any ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss.

The cash flow hedge reserve is adjusted to the lower of the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument and the cumulative change in fair value of the hedged item.

The Company uses swap currency contracts as hedges of its exposure to foreign currency risk in loans taken out in foreign currencies.

The amounts accumulated in OCI are accounted for, depending on the nature of the underlying hedged transaction. If the hedged transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial item, the amount accumulated in equity is removed from the separate component of equity and included in the initial cost or other carrying amount of the hedged asset or liability. This is not a reclassification adjustment and will not be recognised in OCI for the period.

For any other cash flow hedges, the amount accumulated in OCI is reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss.

If cash flow hedge accounting is discontinued, the amount that has been accumulated in OCI must remain in accumulated OCI if the hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur. Otherwise, the amount will be immediately reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment. After discontinuation, once the hedged cash flow occurs, any amount remaining in accumulated OCI must be accounted for depending on the nature of the underlying transaction as described above.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

iv. Financial assets at fair value through OCI without recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition (equity instruments)

The Company elected to measure equity instruments at fair value through OCI if both of the following conditions are met:

  • The equity instrument is an instrument in neither an instrument in Associate, nor Subsidiary
  • The equity instrument is not held for trading

v. Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised when:

  • The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
  • The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass-through' arrangement; and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset

vi. Impairment of financial assets

The Company recognises an allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.

ECLs are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12 months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).

For trade receivables, the Company applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Company does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Company has established a method, that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.

The Company considers a financial asset in default when contractual payments are 90 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Company may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Company is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Company. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as foreign currency swaps to hedge its foreign currency risks. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

vii. Impairment

Loans provided are recognized net of loan loss impairment allowance. Impairment allowances are determined on the basis of the loan status and the behavior of the borrower and take into account the value of all collateral and third party guarantees. The recoverable amount of receivables carried at amortized cost is determined as the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate (ie the effective interest rate calculated on initial recognition of these financial assets). Short-term receivables are not discounted.

When an impairment loss has been recognized directly in equity for available-for-sale assets and there is objective reason for impairment, the cumulative loss that was recognized in equity is subsequently recognized in the statement of profit or loss, even if financial assets were not derecognised from the balance sheet.

The amount impairment expense recognized in the income statement represents the difference between the cost and the fair value less any impairment of financial assets already recognized in the income statement. A decrease in the fair value below the cost of acquisition by more than 20%, or a decrease in the fair value below the cost of acquisition that lasts more than 9 months, in the case of investments in equity securities, is considered impairment.

Impairment losses on receivables carried at amortized cost are recognized when an increase in the recoverable amount can be objectively attributed to an event that occurred after their write-down in accounting. In the case of goodwill, an impairment loss cannot subsequently be reduced.

(h) Financial investments

i. Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all enterprises that are controlled by the Company. The control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an enterprise, so as to obtain benefits from its activities. . The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Company controls another entity. Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost.

ii. Associates

Associates are those enterprises in which the Company has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies. Significant influence is presumed to exist when a company holds between 20 and 50 percent of the voting rights of another entity. Investments in associates are recognised at cost.

The cost of financial investments is derived from the amount of spent cash or cash equivalents or is recognised at fair value of contributed assets and liabilities to acquire the enterprise at the moment of acquisition. Costs related to acquisition (transaction costs) are included in the cost of the investment.

As at the reporting date, the management reconsiders whether any events occurred which could cause impairment of financial investments. Potential impairment of financial investments below their cost is recognised through a value adjustment. Value adjustments are derived from the value of future cash flows discounted to present value.

(i) Foreign currency

Foreign currency transactions

Items included in the Company's financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (the functional currency). The separate financial statements are presented in thousands of euros, which is the Company's functional and presentation currency. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into euros at the foreign exchange rate valid at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into euros at the financial statements date at the exchange rate of the European Central Bank valid at that day.

Foreign exchange differences arising from such translations are recognised through profit or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, which are measured at cost, are translated into euros using the exchange rate valid at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are translated into euros at the foreign exchange rates valid at the dates the fair values are determined.

(g) Financial instruments – applicable for comparative period ending 31.10.2018

i. Classification

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

Loans granted are non-derivative financial assets with fixed and determinable payments, not quoted in an active market, which are not classified as available-for-sale securities, financial assets held to maturity or as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss.

Available-for-sale securities are those non-derivative financial assets that are not classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss, loans and advances to banks and customers or as financial assets held to maturity.

Financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are those that the Company principally holds for trading, that is, with the purpose of short-term profit taking.

ii. Recognition

Loans granted are recognised on the day they are provided by the Company.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available-for-sale securities are recognised on the date the Company commits to purchase the assets.

iii. Measurement

Financial instruments are measured upon initial recognition at fair value plus, in the case of a financial instrument not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial instrument.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets are measured at amortized costs, except for financial assets at fair value through profit and loss and available-for-sale securities, which are measured at fair value.

iv. Fair value measurement principles

The fair value of financial instruments is based on their quoted market price at the financial statements date without any deduction for acquisition-related costs. If a quoted market price is not available, the fair value of the instrument is estimated by the management using the pricing model or discounted cash flow techniques.

Where the discounted cash flow method is used, estimated future cash flows are based on the management's best estimates and the discount rate is the market rate at the date of the financial statement for an instrument with similar terms and conditions. Where pricing models are used, inputs for these models are based on market-related factors at the date of the financial statement.

v. Gain and losses on subsequent revaluation

Gains and losses arising from a change in fair value are recognised in profit or loss for financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss and directly in equity for available-for-sale securities. Changes in the fair value of available-for-sale securities are derecognised from other equity to profit or loss at the moment of sale.

vi. Derecognition

A financial asset is derecognised when the Company loses control over the contractual rights that comprise that asset. This occurs when the rights are realised, expire or are surrendered by the Company.

Available-for-sale assets that are sold are derecognised and the corresponding payable receivables to buyers are recognised as at the date the Company commits to sell the assets.

Loans and advances to customers are derecognised as at the day they are paid/ settled by the Company.

Notes to the Individual Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(n) Property, plant and equipment

i. Owned assets

Single items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation (see below) and impairment losses (refer to the accounting policy under letter i). Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use and costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site where it was located. When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, those components are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

ii. Leasing

Agreements on lease of assets in relation to which the Company assumes substantial part of risks and benefits of ownership are classified as financial leasing. Leased assets are stated at an amount equal to the lower of their fair value and the present value of the minimum leasing payments at inception of the lease, less accumulated depreciation (see below) and impairment losses (refer to the accounting policy under letter i).

iii. Subsequent expenditures

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied in the part of property, plant and equipment will flow to the Company and the relevant cost can be measured reliably. All other expenditures including the costs of day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

iv. Depreciation

Except as specified below, depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of individual items of property, plant and equipment. Land is not depreciated. The estimated useful lives are as follows: Buildings 30 - 45 years

  • Individual movables and sets of movables
    • Geothermal borehole 40 years
    • Slides 25 years
    • Cableways and ski lifts 12 40 years
    • Equipment 5 12 years
    • Fixtures and fittings and others 5 10 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives, as well as residual values, are reassessed annually as at the financial statement's date. Each significant part of property, plant and equipment (component) with cost significant in relation to the total cost of the relevant item is depreciated separately.

v. Capitalized borrowing costs

Borrowing costs attributable to the asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its use or sale are capitalised by the Company as part of the cost of the asset.

(o) Intangible assets

i. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a business combination Goodwill recognized as a result of the Company merging with its subsidiaries is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, or the amount of the investments, over the net of the actual amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries and associates is included in the investments in subsidiaries and associates. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(j) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and in banks, short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and short-term highly liquid investments readily convertible for known amounts of cash.

(k) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of acquisition cost (purchased inventory), respectively in own costs (incurred by own activity), and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and selling expenses. Purchased inventories are measured at cost, which includes the purchase price and other directly attributable expenses incurred in acquiring the inventories and bringing them to their existing location and condition. Own costs include direct costs and indirect costs associated with acquiring inventories by own activity.

(l) Offsetting

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and their net amount is reported in the balance sheet when the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the transactions are intended to be settled on a net basis.

(m) Impairment

The carrying amounts of the Company's assets, other than inventories (refer to the accounting policy under letter k), investment property (refer to the accounting policy under letter p), financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (refer to the accounting policy under letter f), and deferred tax assets (refer to the accounting policy under letter t) are reviewed at each financial statements date to determine whether there is objective indication of impairment of the asset. If any such indication exists, the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. Intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation, but are tested annually for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which they belong.

An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.

Loans granted are recognised net of value adjustment for expected credit losses (ECL). ECL are probability-weighted expectations of future credit lossess. Credit losses are measured as a present value of the difference of contractual and expected cash flows.

If assets available for sale caused a decrease in fair value recognized directly in equity and if objective reasons exist that prove that there was a decrease in the fair value of the assets, the cumulated loss recognized in equity shall be reported in the profit and loss statement even if the relevant financial asset had not been reversed from the financial position. The amount of loss recognized in the profit and loss statement is the difference between the acquisition cost and the fair value, adjusted for the impairment of the financial asset already recognized in profit and loss.

The recoverable amount of other assets is the greater of their value in use less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

In the case of goodwill, an impairment loss cannot be decreased subsequently. In respect of other assets, an impairment loss is reversed or decreased when there is an indication that the impairment loss no longer exists and there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.

An impairment loss can only be reversed or decreased to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(r) Interest income and expense

Interest income and expense is recognised in profit or loss in the period to which it relates using the effective interest rate basis. All expenses on loans and borrowings are recognised in profit or loss, with the exception of capitalised borrowing costs; refer to the accounting policy under letter (j), part (v).

(s) Rental income

Rental income from investment property is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

(t) Income tax

Income tax on the profit for the current accounting period comprises current and deferred tax.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the current accounting period, using tax rates valid as at the date of the financial statement's preparation, and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous accounting periods.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet method and calculated from all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities determined for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences weren't taken into account: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities which affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, and the differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that it is probable that they will not be reversed in the foreseeable future. No deferred taxes are recognised on the initial recognition of goodwill. The amount of deferred tax is based on the expected way of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using the tax rates valid or approved as at the date of the financial statement's preparation.

Income tax is recognised directly in profit or loss, except for the part that relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case the income tax is recognised in equity.

Deferred tax asset and liability are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset the payable tax liability and asset, and they relate to the same tax authority and the taxable entity.

A deferred tax asset is only recognised up to the amount of probable future taxable profits against which the unused tax losses and credits can be offset. Deferred tax assets are reduced by the amount for which it is probable that the related tax benefit will not be realised.

(u) Operative and financial lease payments

Payments made under operative leasing are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Minimum leasing payments of financial leasing are divided into interest and instalments of the principal. Interest is allocated to each period during the term of the lease so as to express a constant periodic rate of interest for the period applied to the unpaid part of the principal

(v) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are stated at amortised cost (see point (w) Financial liabilities).

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

ii. Software and other intangible assets

Software and other intangible assets acquired by the Company are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation (see below) and impairment losses (refer to the accounting policy under letter i). Useful life of these assets is reassessed regularly.

iii. Amortisation

Amortisation is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, from the date the asset is available for use. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

- Software 4 5 years

Valuable rights each item uses an individual depreciation plan, based on the estimate useful lives if these assets, valuable rights also include trademarks which represent non-depreciated assets. The Company uses 6, 7, 8, 12 and 50-year useful lives for its valuable rights.

(p) Investment property

Investment property represents assets that are held by the Company to generate rental income or to realise a long-term increase in value, or for both of these purposes.

Investment property is stated at fair value, which is determined by an independent registered expert or by the management. Fair value is based on current prices of similar assets on an active market under the same location and the same conditions, or where such conditions are not available, by applying the generally applicable valuation models such as the yield method. Any gain or loss arising from a change in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

Assets that are constructed or developed for their future use as investment property are measured at fair value if the fair value can be determined reliably.

Details on the valuation of investment property are specified in Note 3(a) – Critical accounting estimates and assumptions, Valuation of investment property.

Rental income from investment property is accounted for as described in the accounting policy under letter (o).

(q) Provisions

A provision is recognised in the balance sheet when the Company has a present legal, contractual, or non-contractual obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. Long-term provisions the reduction of which to their present value would have a material impact on the financial statements are discounted to their present value.

i. Long-term employee benefits

Liability of the Company resulting from long-term employee benefits other than pension plans represents the estimated amount of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. The liability is calculated using the projected unit credit method, discounted to its present value. A discount rate used to calculate the present value of liability is derived from the yield curve of high-quality bonds with maturities close to the conditions of the Company's liabilities as at the date of the financial statements preparation.

ii. Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are recognised as expenses at the time of provision of the service by the employees. A payable is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Company has a present legal or contractual obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

Notes to the Individual Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

In case that, after the asset assignment into the group of assets held for sale, value is realized mainly through use rather than sale thereof, the assets shall be accounted back and depreciation or amortization for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets shall be recognised in the period when such change of assets arose.

(z) Reporting by segments

Operating segments are parts of the Company that are able to generate income and expenses with available financial information, which is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision makers in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. The management monitors 7 main segments, namely mountain resorts, leisure parks, hotels, dining, sports services and stores, real estate, and other.

(aa) Financial liabilities

The Company recognises financial liabilities as other financial liabilities. The Company does not recognise any financial liabilities valued at fair value through profit or loss.

In the Company's separate statement of financial position, other financial liabilities are recognized as received loans and borrowings, bonds issued, trade payables, other liabilities and current tax liabilities.

Financial liabilities are recognised by the Company on the trade date. Upon initial recognition, financial liabilities are measured at fair value including transaction costs.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost. Upon measurement at amortized cost the difference between the cost and the face value is recognised through profit or loss during existence of the asset or liability using the effective interest rate method.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Company's obligation specified in the contract expires, is settled or cancelled.

(bb) Fair value estimates

The following notes summarise the main methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of financial assets and liabilities referred to in Note 33 – Fair value information:

i. Loans granted

Fair value is calculated based on discounted expected future principal and interest cash flows. Expected future cash flows are estimated considering credit risk and any indication of impairment. The estimated fair values of loans reflect changes in credit status since the loans were made and changes in interest rates in the case of fixed rate loans.

ii. Loans and borrowings

For loans and borrowings with no defined maturities, fair value is taken to be the amount payable on demand as at the date of preparation of the consolidated financial statement. The estimated fair value of fixed-maturity loans and borrowings is based on discounted cash flows using rates currently offered for loans and borrowings of similar remaining maturities.

iii. Trade receivables/payables, other receivables and other assets/liabilities For receivables/payables with a remaining life of less than one year, the nominal amount is deemed to reflect the fair value. Other receivables/payables are discounted to determine the fair value.

(w) Revenues from services rendered

The Company recognises six types of basic revenues from services rendered:

  • Revenues from cableways and ski lifts (hereinafter also referred to as "Mountain Resorts")
  • Revenues from leisure parks (hereinafter also referred to as "Leisure Parks")
  • Revenues from sports services and stores (hereinafter also referred to as "Sports Services and Stores")

  • Revenues from hotel services (hereinafter also referred to as "Hotels")

  • Revenues from restaurant facilities (hereinafter also referred to as "Dining")
  • Revenues from real estate projects (mainly from investment property, hereinafter also referred to as "Real Estate")
  • Other revenues

The company recognises the revenues to the extent, in which it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and these revenues can be reliably evaluated. The revenues are recognised at fair value. Revenues are accrued depending on in which period the services were rendered, excluding revenues from the aqua park, hotel services and restaurant facilities, which are recognised in profit or loss after the service has been rendered. Revenues from services rendered do not include value added tax. They are also net of discounts and rebates (rebates, bonuses, discounts, credit notes and the like).

Since 2012 the Company has been running a loyalty program for its clients – GOPASS. GOPASS enables its clients to earn points for purchase of products and services in its resorts and to redeem these points as discounts from future purchases. The amount of unredeemed points are recognized as a decrease in sales against revenue time difference, as they are related to promised discounts from future purchases of clients. The Company monitors the value of unredeemed points and revalues it on a regular basis for its recognition in the financial statements.

Other services include in particular the services provided in relation to accommodation, such as the rental of premises including hotels disclosed as investments property, parking, wellness, massage, sale of souvenirs, etc. Revenues from rental are recognised over the duration of the rental, with accruals. Revenues from real estate projects are recognised following the transfer of rights and obligations and related risks on to buyer, to which occurs at the day of transfering the ownership rights. Revenues from the sale of souvenirs and other goods shall be recognised following the transfer of significant risks and benefits from the particular goods. Other revenues from services provided shall be recognised following the provision thereof.

(x) Dividends

Dividends are recognised in the statement of changes in equity and also as liabilities in the period in which they are approved.

(y) Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale

Non-current assets (or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities) that are expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use are classified as held for sale. Immediately before classification as held for sale, the assets (or components of a disposal group held for sale) are re-measured in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU. Thereafter, upon initial classification as held for sale, the assets and disposal group held for sale are recognised at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

Any impairment loss on a disposal group is first allocated to goodwill, and then to the remaining assets and liabilities on a pro rata basis, except for inventories, financial assets, deferred tax assets and investment property, which continue to be measured in accordance with the Company's accounting policies.

Impairment losses on initial recognition as held for sale are recognised in profit or loss even if the revaluation reserve was created. The same applies to gains and losses on subsequent measurements. Gains are not recognised in excess of any cumulative impairment loss. Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets classified as held for sale are no longer depreciated or amortised.

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

The compilation of the financial statements according to the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU requires the application of certain significant accounting estimates. It also requires that the management, in the application process of the Company accounting principles, should use its judgement. Therefore, the accounting estimates will be rarely identical with actual figures. Estimates and assumptions carrying a significant risk of causing a material modification of the book value of assets and liabilities in the future accounting period are described below in the text. The estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of revision and also in future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

(a) Valuation of Investments in Property

Investments in property are measured at fair value. The fair value of investments in property is determined either by a management evaluation or independent expert (see the Significant Accounting Principles, par. l); in both of the cases the valuation is based on current market values and conditions. The fair market value is the estimated value, for which the property could be exchanged, on the valuation day, between knowledgeable, willing parties being a prospective seller and a prospective buyer, in an arm's length transaction, with each party acting well informed, cautiously and without compulsion.

In the absence of current market prices, net estimated cash flow generated from the leasing of property and gains from capitalisation which reflect the risk specific for the market and also cash flow from the property shall be taken into account. The valuation reflects (where relevant) the type of lessees who use the property or are responsible for the fulfilment of lease liabilities or the type of prospective users, if the property is left non-rented, the general market perception of lessee solvency, the distribution of responsibilities related to maintenance and insurance of property between the Company and the lessees, and the remaining life of property.

As at 31 October 2019, the investments in real property cover three hotels (SKI, Liptov, Kosodrevina) and the accommodation facility Otupné with the aggregate book value of 2,707 ths. EUR (as at 31 October 2018: 2,707 ths EUR), which are leased out to third parties that operate them, as well as forest areas and lands obtained as an acquisition in 2009 in the book value of 5,622 ths. EUR (as at 31 October 2018: 4,572 ths EUR). The value of the hotels was estimated by the management in a manner specified above. The value of the land was determined by the management using market prices, and the final value is based on an estimate of the market price per square meter, depending on the type of land and market transactions for lands of similar character.

As at 31 October 2019, the Company management, based on current market and contract conditions, revalued the value of investments in property and came to the conclusion, that the value of contractual lease has changed and therefore there was a need to adjust the value of investments in property. The investments property revaluation was 1,050 ths. EUR as at 31 October 2019 (as at 31 October 2018: 725 ths. EUR). For the purposes of valuation the expert reports and available sale/purchase contracts were used.

If the fair value of the portion of investments in property which was determined based on management estimates differs from management estimates by 10%, the book value of investments in property would be higher or lower by 833 ths. EUR in comparison with the amount reported as at 31 October 2019 (as at 31 October 2018: 728 ths. EUR).

(b) Goodwill and Impairment Test

As at the date of the financial statements, the Company is required to assess whether there is any indication that its goodwill is impaired. If there is no indication that goodwill may be impaired, the Company shall, according to IAS 36, test reported goodwill for possible impairment on a yearly basis as at 31 October, i.e. as at the date of compilation of the annual separate financial statements.

On the day of reporting, the acquired goodwill is allocated to individual cash-generating units (CGU) that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combinations.

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

Potential decrease of the goodwill value is determined by comparing the return value of CGU and its book value. The return value is determined by the value in use. The value in use was derived from a business plan prepared by the management. The key prerequisite which was also the most sensitive factor in determining the recoverable amount was expected revenues assessed by the management, the profit margin ratio (EBITDA) and the cost of capital used as the discount factor for future net cash flows.

Expected revenues as well as the profit margin ratio are based on changes in customer target groups, strengthened marketing and increase in the quality of services rendered.

Projecting of cash flows applied in determining the value in use covers a medium-term period of 5 years and subsequent extrapolation for the next period. Based on such standard level of cash flows, the terminal value was calculated with expected growth of cash flows at 1% p.a. (2018: 1%). Discount rates applied in the projecting of cash flows were calculated as weighted average cost of capital, representing 6.5% (without taking into account the effect of the corporate income tax) for 2019 and 6.5% for 2018 (after taking into account the effect of corporate the income tax).

In 2019 and 2018, goodwill was tested within CGU Vysoké Tatry, and the test did not show any reason for asset impairment. If as at 31 October 2019, projected EBITDA of CGU Vysoké Tatry, being part of projected cash flows was lower than 5% in comparison with management estimates, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit in the location of High Tatras would drop by 11,586 ths. EUR. In such case, it would not be necessary to account for the asset impairment or goodwill even at a lower EBIDTA reached. If the discount rate increased by 0.5% in comparison with the management estimate, i.e. its value was 7.00 %, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit for the location of High Tatras would drop by 22,671 ths. EUR. Here again it would not be necessary to account for asset impairment or goodwill even at a higher discount rate.

If as at 31 October 2018, projected EBITDA of CGU Vysoké Tatry, being part of projected cash flows was lower than 5% in comparison with management estimates, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit in the location of High Tatras would drop by 10,160 ths. EUR. In such case, it would not be necessary to account for the asset impairment or goodwill even at a lower EBIDTA reached. If the discount rate increased by 0.5% in comparison with the management estimate, i.e. its value was 7.00 %, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit for the location of High Tatras would drop by 12,821 ths. EUR. Here again it would not be necessary to account for asset impairment or goodwill even at a higher discount rate.

(c) Asset Impairment

IAS 36 requires the testing of asset impairment in cases where external or internal indicators would point out to possible asset impairment.

The Company carries on 6 principal activities: running of mountain resorts, leisure parks, restaurant services, sports services and stores, accommodation services and real estate projects, namely in three locations: Jasná (the Low Tatras), in the High Tatras, and in Liptovský Mikuláš and via its subsidiaries in Poland, Czech Republic and Austria with new asset expansion in 2019. Each of the locations was assessed by the management as an individual cash-generating unit (CGU). The Company monitors the performance and creates independent budgets for individual cash-generating units. The Company assets were allocated to individual cash-generating units according to the material competence, whereas all assets, i.e. also the Hotels, Catering establishments and Sports services and shops are included in individual cash-generating units, except for Ski lifts and Cable ways.

As at 31 October 2019, the Company management having considered the Company asset impairment did not identify any indicator of possible impairment. For that reason, the asset impairment test was not performed. An impairment test was performed only for the location of High Tatras, as it has assigned Goodwill as specified in par. 3(b).

As at 31 October 2018, the Company management having considered the Company asset impairment did not identify any indicator of possible impairment. For that reason, the asset impairment test was not performed. An impairment test was performed only for the location of High Tatras, as it has assigned Goodwill as specified in par. 3(b).

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

As at 31 October 2019, after the assessment of the Company's management, no indicator of significat change in financial investment value in the company MELIDA a.s was identified. Therefore, no impairment allowance was accounted for related to MELIDA a.s.

As at 31 October 2019 and 2018, the fair value of MELIDA a.s. was estimated by the Company management using the discounted cash flow method, with the application of inputs from the business plan and of cash flow estimates. The business plan and cash flow estimates were consistently reviewed before application by Company management. The rent of the ski resort was based on the signed appendix no. 2, which came into effect on 22 March 2018, extended until 2057. Therefore cash flows projection was from 2018 to 2057. The main preconditions that were used in the valuation, were estimated cash flows, where the most important assumptions estimated by the management included EBITDA, its growth and discount rate.

EBIDTA projected for 2019 represented the value of 5,890 ths EUR. For financial year 2019, the grow by 5% was originally expected, for 2020 and 2021 the grow by 3% is expected, from 2022 to 2023 it is expected to grow by 2% per year and from 2024 to 2057 by 1% per year. The discount rate applied in the valuation of such financial assets used as at 31 October 2018, representing the required rate of return of own share capital, was of 7.80% (2017: 8.70%).

If in the calculation as at 31 October 2018 the EBITDA projected for MELIDA a.s., which is a part of the projected cash flows, was 5% lower every year compared to the management estimates, the value of investment in CAREPAR, a.s. would drop by 341 ths. EUR. If the discount rate increased by 0.5% in comparison with the management estimate, i.e. its value would be 8.30%, the value of CAREPAR, a.s. would drop by 242 ths. EUR.

(d) Financial Instruments at Fair Value

The fair value of financial instruments is determined based on:

Level 1: quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
---------- -- -- -- -- -- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Level 2: inputs other than quoted market prices included within Level 1, which are comparable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices of comparable instruments) or indirectly (derived from prices)

Level 3: inputs for the asset and liability, which are not determined on the basis of data from comparable markets (unobservable inputs)

When the quoted market price is not available, the fair value of the instrument is estimated using valuation techniques. When using valuation models, the management applies estimates and assumptions which are consistent with information available on estimates and assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the relevant financial instrument.

30. Hedge accounting

The Company applies hedge accounting for the first time in current year. The Company applies only cash-flow hedges and hedges only against foreign currency risk.

Since the Company has taken out a loan from its Czech subsidiary, denominated in CZK in amount of 58.7 mil EUR, the currency gap has widened, and the Company decided to manage the foreign currency risk against the Czech Crown on this particular instrument by hedging against changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

The Company has decided not to hedge any other risks (interest rate risk,..) arising from this particular instrument besides the foreign currency risk, as they are managed otherwise. Please refer to section financial risks for further information.

The hedged item is a long-term bullet-payment loan denominated in CZK, drawn from Company's subsidiary with fixed repayment schedule.

Hedging instrument is a Foreign currency swap, swapping the CZK repayments on the loan exposure for repayments in EUR, retaining the fixed nature of interest rates in both currencies.

There is an economic relationship between the hedged items and the hedging instruments as the terms of the foreign exchange and swap contracts match the terms of the loan (i.e., notional amount and repayment schedules). The Company has established a hedge ratio of 1:1 for the hedging relationships as the underlying risk of the foreign exchange swap contracts are identical to the hedged risk components. As the critical terms of the foreign exchange and swap contracts match the terms of the loan (i.e., notional amount and repayment schedules), the Company expects the hedging relationship to be effective to a high degree.

The hedge ineffectiveness can arise, when the Company stops paying the loan or eventually repays greater portion than intended by repayment schedule. The Company plans to repay the loan in line with the repayment schedule.

37. Information on Risk Management

This section provides details of risks to which the Company is exposed, and the method of management of the risks. The Company is exposed risks in the following areas:

  • Credit Risk
  • Liquidity Risk
  • Market Risk
  • Operational Risk

The management is generally responsible for setting and control of Company risk management.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to this risk mainly with respect to trade receivables, lease receivables, other receivables, advance payments and loans provided. The volume of exposure to this risk is expressed as the book value of these assets in the balance sheet in case that no form of guarantees is provided. The book value of receivables, advance payments and loans provided expresses the highest possible book loss that would have been posted if the counterpart completely fails in performing its contractual obligations, and all securities and guarantees would have a zero value. Therefore, this value far exceeds the expected losses which are included in the provisions for irrecoverable debts. Before signing major contracts the Company board at regular board meetings evaluates credit risk related to counterpart. In case of identifying significant risks, the Company withdraws from signing the contract.

Loans provided

The Company assigns a degree of credit risk to loans provided on the basis of data that is expected to predict credit risk (including but not limited to external ratings, financial statements, management accounts and cash flow projections and available counterparty press releases), potential days past due and applying experienced credit judgment.

The grades of credit risk are defined by qualitative and quantitative factors that indicate the risk of default and are consistent with external credit rating definitions from credit rating agencies such as Moody's and Standard & Poors. The probability of default is then assigned based on historical data collected by these agencies. The default loss (LGD) parameters generally reflect an expected rate of return of 40%, except when the loan is reduced by a loan. 37. Information on Risk Management (continued)

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risks arise within general financing of the Company and management of financial positions. It covers the risk of insolvency regarding the financing of assets within the agreed maturity period and at the interest rate, and also the risk of asset management at a reasonable price within an adequate timeframe. The Company management focuses on liquidity management and monitoring. Due to liquidity management, the management changed the accounting period to a fiscal year ended on 31 October. In the first half of its accounting period, the Company has a winter season, which represents 60% of Companys' income. According to the trend in the first half-year, the Company can affect the side of revenues and expenses sufficiently early, so that they are able to keep sufficient liquidity for Company's operation. In the Vysoké Tatry centre, the seasonal nature is also balanced with a strong summer season, which ensures its more stable liquidity all year round.

The following table presents an analysis of Company financial assets and liabilities grouped by the residual maturity. The analysis presents the most prudent variant of residual maturity including interest. Therefore, for liabilities, the earliest possible repayment is reported, and for assets, the latest possible repayment is reported. Assets and liabilities which have no maturity are posted in the category "Without specification".

1% strengthening of the EUR against the Polish Zloty would have the following effect on the financial assets and financial liabilities of the Company:

Effect on the portfolio

1% weakening of the EUR against the Polish Zloty would have an identical high but opposite effect on the financial assets and financial liabilities in comparison with strengthening.

Interest Risk

Company transactions are exposed to the risk of interest rate changes. The volume of this risk is equal to the amount of interest-bearing assets and interest-bearing liabilities, for which the interest rate differs, in the maturity period or in the period of change, from the present interest rate. Therefore, the period for which a fixed interest rate is determined for the financial instrument, expresses the exposure to the risk of changes in interest rates to which the Company is exposed. The table below presents Company exposure to the risk of changes in interest rates based on contractual maturity period of financial instruments.

As at 31 October 2019 and as at 31 October 2018, the Company has the following assets and liabilities linked to interest rates:

Sensitivity analysis for instruments with a variable interest rate Change by 100 basis points in interest rates would have the following effect on the profit/loss from operations and cash flow sensitivity:

Company interest-bearing liabilities have a variable interest rate referring to EURIBOR. The Company considers the variable interest rate as the self-management of interest risk. During an economic expansion, the EURIBOR is growing, but at the same time, the population economic performance is growing, and the company has higher revenues and profits. During an economic recession, the situation is completely opposite.

The Book value of Other receivables contains mainly advance payments made, which are not expected to be paid in cash, but by a transfer of shares.

Currency Risk

Due to the acquisition of subsidiaries in Poland and in the Czech Republic and due to providing loans to and receiving loans from these companies during 2018 and 2019, the Company is primarily exposed to the risk of changes in the exchange rate of Polish Zloty and Czech Crown against the EUR. The management monitors regularly whether there is a large difference between foreign currency liabilities and receivables. As at 31 October 2019, the Company reported an investment in the subsidiary in the amount of 7,218 ths. EUR, and loans provided in Polish Zloty were in amount of 31,029 ths. EUR and in Czech Crown were in amount of 232 ths. EUR, and loans provided in Czech Crown were in amount of 5,703 ths. EUR.

Since the Company drawn a loan from its subsidiary in Czech Republic, denominated in Czech Crown were in amount of 58,7 mil EUR, the open position on the currency risk at the Czech Crown has significantly opened. The Company decided to hedge its currency position against fluctuations in the Czech Crown for this particular debt instrument. For more information, see Note 30 - Hedge Accounting.

The other Company assets and liabilities are denominated in euro.

Secondarily, there is a risk that the weakening of the Czech Crown, Polish Zloty or of the Russian Ruble against the EUR would lead to reducing the number of visitors from the above stated countries.

37. Information on Risk Management (continued)

Operational Risk

Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from any fraud, unauthorised activities, failures, errors, inefficiency or failure of systems. The risk is created in all Company activities. Operational risk also includes the risk of legal disputes. The aim of the Company is to manage the operational risk to prevent any financial losses and detriment to the Company reputation within the cost-efficiency of cost spent on achieving this objective, while avoiding any measures preventing initiatives and creativity.

The Company management has key responsibility for the implementation of inspections related to the operational risk management. The responsibility is supported by the implementation of standards for the management of operational risk which is common for the whole Company. Operational risk is governed by a system of directives, minutes of meetings and control mechanisms. The Company has a controlling department which attempts to eliminate all operational risks through regular inspections.

The Company is also exposed to the risk of unfavourable conditions with respect to the weather. The number of visitors in the centre depends on the snow and snowfall periods. Unfavourable conditions adversely affect the number of skiers and the revenue of profit/loss from operations. Warm weather can unreasonably increase the cost of snowmaking and reduce the area where skiing is possible. Historically, the Low Tatras and the High Tatras region had on average 80cm and 85cm of snow during the winter season, respectively. The start of winter season and snow conditions affect the perception of the whole season by skiers. The Company is not able to forecast reliably in any manner the snow conditions at the beginning of winter season. Also thanks to the system of snowmaking, the snow conditions during the winter are stable each year.
