The accompanying notes 1 to 23 are an integral part of the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019.
The Aedas Homes Group comprises Aedas Homes, S.A. (the Parent or Company) and its subsidiaries.
The Parent's registered office is located in Madrid, Spain, at Paseo de la Castellana, 42. It is registered with the Madrid Companies Register.
Aedas Homes, S.A. and its subsidiaries (together, the Aedas Group or the Group) are devoted to the following business activities, pursuant to article 2 of the Company's bylaws:
The above-mentioned activities may be performed by the Parent or by any Group companies either directly or indirectly, as well as through ownership interests in other companies with an identical or similar corporate purpose. At present, the Parent holds equity interests in other companies. Appendix I of these notes itemizes the activities conducted by the subsidiaries of Aedas Homes, S.A.
The Parent was incorporated under the name of SPV Spain 19, S.L.U. as a result of the subscription and payment of 3,000 indivisible equity interests (participaciones sociales), numbered sequentially, with a unit par value of 1 euro. They were paid for in cash. Hipoteca 43 Lux, S.A.R.L. purchased 100% of these interests on July 5, 2016. The Company's name was changed to Aedas Homes Group, S.L.U. on July 18, 2016. It assumed its current name in the wake of the restructuring transaction agreed on May 23, 2017.
On September 12, 2017, the Company's legal form of incorporation was changed to that of a public limited company (sociedad anónima) so that it took the name of Aedas Homes, S.A. (Sociedad Unipersonal).
The shares representing the share capital of Aedas Homes S.A. have been trading on the continuous stock markets of Madrid, Barcelona, Bilbao and Valencia since October 20, 2017.
The deeds declaring the loss of sole-shareholder status (sociedad unipersonal) were placed on public record on November 23, 2017.
In 2017, the Parent's then Majority Shareholder contributed its Spanish property development business, specifically contributing the entities through which it had been carrying out this business. Over the course of 2017, the Majority Shareholder contributed its Spanish real estate development business to the Company.
It is important to note that Aedas Homes, S.A.U. was incorporated with the purpose of reorganizing the then Majority Shareholder's real estate development business in Spain but that neither the Company's key management personnel nor the management of the business change as a result of the reorganization; moreover, the reorganization does not result in a change of control.
The directors based their analysis on the contents of paragraphs 17 and 18 of Basis for Conclusions on IFRS 3 "Business Combinations", based on their analysis on the IFRS 3 Appendix B - Application guidance appendix, paragraph B1, which states that "A business combination involving entities or businesses under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining entities or businesses are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination, and that control is not transitory", the Parent's directors concluded that the contributions did indeed constitute a real estate development business as well as a combination involving entities under common control, opting accordingly, in keeping with the terms of paragraph 10 of IAS 8 regarding the development of an appropriate accounting policy for transactions not specifically contemplated in IFRS-EU, to recognize the contributions at the amounts at which the assets and liabilities received were carried in the financial statements of the then Majority Shareholder rather than at the amounts at which the contributions were actually made. The difference arising between the amounts at which the contributions were made and the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities received were charged against "Voluntary reserves".
The summary of the difference between the amounts at which the inventories were contributed and the amounts used for consolidated financial statement accounting purposes is as follows:
| Euros | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carrying amounts in the | Impact on | ||||
| Amounts at which | books of the entities | voluntary | |||

| Contribution of March 30, 2017 | 829,436,052 | 596,293,156 (233,142,896) | |||
| Contribution of June 29, 2017 | 60,569,456 | 43,691,035 | (16,878,421) | ||
| Contribution of August 16, 2017 | 110,596,625 | 49,687,116 | (60,909,509) | ||
| Total | 1,000,602,133 | 689,671,307 (310,930,826) |
(*) Stated at the Group's percentage interest in the inventories at each contribution date.
In addition, as a result of the contributions of March and June 2017, the Group recognized non-current borrowings from the then Majority Shareholder of 470,173,453 and 22,714,507 euros, respectively, and current borrowings of 4,845,163 and 257,657 euros, respectively; these borrowings were subsequently capitalized.
On April 2, 2018, by virtue of resolutions ratified by Aedas Homes, S.A. in its capacity as sole shareholder of SPV Reoco 1, S.L.U., it was agreed to merge SPV Reoco 1, S.L.U. ("Transferee") and 41 of its subsidiaries (ESPEBE 2, S.L.U., ESPEBE 4, S.L.U., ESPEBE 7, S.L.U., ESPEBE 12, S.L.U., ESPEBE 14, S.L.U., ESPEBE 15, S.L.U., ESPEBE 16, S.L.U., ESPEBE 17, S.L.U., ESPEBE 20, S.L.U., ESPEBE 21, S.L.U., ESPEBE 22, S.L.U., ESPEBE 23, S.L.U., ESPEBE 25, S.L.U., ESPEBE 26, S.L.U., ESPEBE 27, S.L.U., ESPEBE 28, S.L.U., ESPEBE 29, S.L.U., ESPEBE 31, S.L.U., ESPEBE 32, S.L.U., ESPEBE 34, S.L.U., ESPEBE 35, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 2, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 5, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 6, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 12, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 14, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 17, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 18, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 26, S.L.U., SPV SPAIN PROJECT 1, S.L.U., SPV SPAIN 7, S.L.U., SPV SPAIN 16, S.L.U., SPV SPAIN 17, S.L.U., CORNETALA SERVICIOS Y GESTIONES, S.L.U., DANTA INVESTMENTS, S.L.U., DELANETO SERVICIOS Y GESTIONES, S.L.U., DESARROLLO EMPRESARIAL LICANCABUR, S.L.U., EPAVENA PROMOCIONES Y SERVICIOS, S.L.U., LANDATA SERVICIOS Y GESTIONES, S.L.U., MILEN INVESTMENTS, S.L.U. and SERVICIOS INMOBILIARIOS CLEGANE, S.L.U., the "Transferors").
The merger by absorption implied: (i) the dissolution and extinguishment of the Transferors; (ii) the enbloc transfer of all the latter companies' assets and liabilities to the Transferee, which acquired all of their rights and obligations by universal succession. The merger deeds were publicly notarized on May 4, 2018 and registered with the Madrid Companies Register.
As for the economic rationale for the merger, the restructuration of the group of companies aimed the simplification of its structure and administrative management in order to save in performing costs. The merger is therefore intended to simplify and speed up corporate decision-making.
The restructuring operation described above is covered by the special tax neutrality regime for mergers, divisions, transfers of assets, exchanges of shares and changes of the registered address of a European company or a European cooperative society from one European Union member state to another provided for in Chapter VII of Title VII of Spain's Corporate Income Tax Act (Legislative-Royal Decree 4/2014, of November 27, 2014).
At December 31, 2019, the Company was the parent of a group of companies. The Group formed by the Parent and its subsidiaries has issued the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by the European Union (IFRS-EU).
Appendix I itemizes the Group companies consolidated by the Parent and provides their salient information as at December 31, 2019, before making the corresponding standardization adjustments, as appropriate, to their separate financial statements in order to adapt them for IFRS-EU reporting purposes. The figures disclosed in Appendix I were provided by the Group entities and their equity positions are those stated in their accounting records as of the reporting date.
The description of the main changes, during financial year 2019, in the investments in Group companies and associates, is as follows:
Given the business activities performed by the Group, it has no environmental liabilities, expenses, assets, provisions or contingencies that could be material in respect of its equity, financial position or performance. Therefore, no specific disclosures relating to environmental issues are included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements of the Group comprising Aedas Homes, S.A. and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2019 were prepared from the accounting records of the Parent and the other companies comprising the Group (refer to Appendix I) in keeping with the International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by the European Union (IFRS-EU).
The consolidated financial statements were prepared under the IFRS-EU in effect on the date of their issuance. They take into consideration all of the accounting principles and standards and measurement criteria that are mandatorily applicable under IFRS-EU such that they present fairly the Group's equity and financial position as at December 31, 2019 and its financial performance, the changes in its equity and in cash flows, all on a consolidated basis, for the year then ended.
However, given that the accounting principles and measurement criteria used to prepare the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 may differ from those used by certain of the Group entities, the appropriate adjustments and reclassifications have been made upon consolidation in order to standardize the various principles and criteria and bring them in line with IFRS-EU.
In order to present the different items that make up the annual consolidated financial statements on a uniform basis, the accounting policies and measurement rules used by the Parent have been applied to all of the companies consolidated.
The consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the European Union (IFRS-EU), in conformity with Regulation (EC) no. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council, which were effective as at December 31, 2019.
The consolidated financial statements were prepared on a historical cost basis, with the exception of certain assets and financial instruments which have been measured at their revalued amounts or fair values at year-end, as explained in the accounting policies section provided further below. As a general rule, historical cost values are based on the fair value of the consideration provided in exchange for goods and services.
Unless indicated otherwise, the figures shown in the documents comprising these consolidated financial statements (consolidated balance sheet, consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity, consolidated statement of cash flows and these notes) are expressed in euros.
The accounting standards used to prepare these consolidated financial statements correspond to those used to prepare the 2018 consolidated financial statements, except the following, applicable from the 2019 financial year onwards and not previously adopted, if applicable:
The modifications introduced by IFRS 16 Leases, in force since January 1, 2019, must be highlighted.
IFRS 16 Leases requires lessees to recognize in their statement of financial position the assets and liabilities arising from all leases (except for the short-term leases and leases of low-value assets). Under the previous lease standard, a significant portion of these contracts were classified as operating lease, with lease payments being recognised generally on a straight-line basis over the contract term.
As of the date of its first application (January 1, 2019), the Group acted as a lessee on a total of 28 lease agreements of different assets, corresponding mainly to office leases, parking spaces and vehicles renting.
The Group decided to adopt the modified retrospective transition method; therefore, the Group recognized the cumulative effect of initial application as an adjustment to retained earnings at the date of the initial application of IFRS 16 (January 1, 2019). The impact of the application of this standard on the Group's financial statements has been the recognition on the balance sheet of right of use assets and their corresponding lease obligations for a total amount of de 2,729,508 euros at the date of its first application. Also, amortization of the right of use assets and recognition of interest costs on the lease obligation on the statements of income replace amounts recognized as lease expense under the previous lease standard. Classification of lease payments in the statement of cash flows are also affected by the requirements of this new lease standard. Additionally, the Group's Financial Statements include, in compliance of the requirements of the standard, broader disclosures with relevant information regarding lease contracts, which are detailed below.
The rights of use assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter.
The lease contracts of the Group do not include dismantling or restoration obligations.
The right of use assets are not presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet.
Set out below, are the carrying amounts of the Group's right-of-use assets and lease liabilities and the movements during the period:
| Right of use assets | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Buildings | Plant and other PP&E |
TOTAL | Lease Liabilities |
|
| Balance at 31 January 2019 | 2,556,703 | 172,805 | 2,729,508 | 2,729,508 |
| Additions | 296,403 | 58,145 | 354,548 | 354,548 |
| Depreciation expense | (938,677) | (42,494) | (981,171) | - |
| Interest Expense | - | - | - | 123,363 |
| Modification to lease terms – other adjustments |
555,318 | - | 555,318 | 555,318 |
| Lease Payments | - | - | - | (1,054,478) |
| Balance at 31 December 2019 | 2,469,747 | 188,456 | 2,658,203 | 2,708,259 |
For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Group has recognised leases of low-value assets and short-term lease payments, for a total amount of 129,813 euros.
For the lease liabilities recognized at December 31 2019, an amount of 1,025,792 euros is due within one year, and an amount of 1,682,467 euros is due within one to five years.
The Group intends to apply the standards, interpretations and amendments issued by the IASB whose application is not mandatory in the European Union at the date of preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, when said standards, interpretations and amendments take effect, insofar as they apply to the Group.
On the date of preparing these Consolidated Financial Statements, the following standards, amendments to standards and interpretation had been published by the IASB but were not mandatory:
Mandatory Implementation: effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020
Although the Group is still in the process of analysing their impact, based on the analysis performed to date, it estimates that their first-time application will not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates. The Group does not currently trade abroad or in any currencies other than the euro.
The Group Parent's directors are responsible for the information included in these consolidated financial statements.
The Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 make occasional use of estimates made by the senior executives of the Group and of its consolidated companies, later ratified by their respective directors, in order to quantify certain of the assets, liabilities, income, expenses and obligations recognized therein. Essentially, these estimates refer to:
Although these estimates were made on the basis of the best information available at December 31, 2019 regarding the facts analysed, future events could make it necessary to revise these estimates (upwards or downwards) in coming years. Changes in accounting estimates would be applied prospectively in accordance with IAS 8, recognizing the effects of the change in estimates in the related consolidated income statement.
In order to present the financial information on a uniform basis, the accounting policies and measurement rules used by the Parent have been applied to all of the companies consolidated.
The universe of companies included in the consolidation scope in the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 is listed in Appendix I.
Subsidiaries are investees over which the Parent exercises control either directly or indirectly via other subsidiaries. The Parent controls a subsidiary when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with it and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. The Parent is deemed to have power over an investee when it has existing rights that give it the current ability to direct its relevant activities. The Parent is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee when the returns obtained from its involvement have the potential to vary as a result of the entity's performance.
The Parent re-evaluates whether it controls an investee when events and circumstances indicate the existence of changes in one or more of the control elements itemized above. The Parent consolidates a subsidiary from when it obtains control (and deconsolidates when it ceases to have such control).
At present, all of the Group companies are consolidated using the full consolidation method, with the exception of Winslaro ITG, S.L., Servicios Inmobiliarios Licancabur, S.L., Urbania Lamatra I, S.L. and Urbania Lamatra II, S.L.
Any non-controlling interests are measured at their percentage interest in the fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities recognized. Accordingly, any loss attributable to non-controlling interests in excess of the carrying amount of such interests is recognized with a charge against the Parent's equity. Minority interests in:
The income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated income statement from the acquisition date or until the date of change in control, as warranted.
Material intra-group balances and transactions among fully-consolidated investees are eliminated upon consolidation, as are the gains or losses included in the inventories deriving from purchases from other Group companies.
Given that all of the Group companies have the same financial year-end no adjustments have had to be made to ensure uniform reporting periods.
All of the assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows related with transactions among the Group companies are fully eliminated upon consolidation.
Investments in an associate or, where applicable, in a joint venture, are recognized under the equity method; initially the investment in an associate or a joint venture is recognised at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognise the investor's share of the profit or loss of the investee after the date of acquisition. The investor's share of the investee's profit or loss is recognised in the investor's profit or loss. Distributions received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. Adjustments to the carrying amount may also be necessary for changes in the investor's proportionate interest in the investee arising from changes in the investee's other comprehensive income. Such changes include those arising from the revaluation of property, plant and equipment and from foreign exchange translation differences. The investor's share of those changes is recognised in the investor's other comprehensive income.
The Parent has notified all the companies in which it has ownership interests of 10% or more, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, of this fact, in keeping with article 155 of Spain's Corporate Enterprises Act. The list of non-Group companies that hold an equity interest in any of the fullyconsolidated subsidiaries of 10% or more is provided in Appendix II.
The assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of newly-acquired subsidiaries are stated at their acquisition-date fair values. Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired (i.e., a bargain acquisition), the gain is recognized in profit and loss in the period of the acquisition.
The Group has not recognized any such goodwill or negative differences of consolidation to date.
For comparative purposes, the information contained in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 is presented alongside the information at December 31, 2018 in respect of the consolidated balance sheet, the consolidated income statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows. As pointed out in section a) of this note, and with the effects described in said section, IFRS 16 Leases is effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, which must be considered for comparative purposes.
Any comparison should consider the changes in the Group's capital structure outlined in Notes 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3.
A summary of the significant accounting policies and standards applied is provided in Note 4.
The distribution of profit proposed by the Parent's directors for the year ended December 31, 2019, pending ratification at the Annual General Meeting, is as follows:
| Euros | |
|---|---|
| Dec 31, 2019 | |
| Basis of distribution: | |
| Profit for the year | 15,027,995 |
| Distribution: | |
| Allocation to legal reserves (art. 273 LSC) | 1,502,799 |
| Prior-year losses offsetting | 13,115,628 |
| Capitalization reserve (art. 25 LIS) | 409,568 |
The following accounting principles, policies and measurement criteria were used to draw up the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019:
Intangible assets are identifiable non-monetary assets, without physical substance, which arise as a result of a legal transaction or are developed by the consolidated companies. Only assets whose cost can be estimated reasonably objectively and from which the consolidated companies consider it probable that future economic benefits will be generated are recognized.
Intangible assets are initially recognized at acquisition cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses.
The Group recognizes computer software at the amount of costs incurred to acquire and develop it; these costs include website development costs. Software maintenance costs are expensed currently. Software is amortized using the straight-line method over a five-year period.
The items comprising property, plant and equipment are measured initially at acquisition cost and are subsequently carried net of accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses.
Acquisition or production cost for items of property, plant and equipment that require more than one year to ready for use (qualifying assets) include borrowing costs accrued prior to readying the assets for use when such expenses have been invoiced by the supplier or correspond to specific or generic loans or other external financing directly allocable to the acquisition, manufacture or construction of the asset.
The cost of maintaining and repairing the various items making up property, plant and equipment are charged to the consolidated income statement in the year incurred. On the other hand, amounts spent to upgrade these assets that increase their productivity, capacity or efficiency or lengthen their useful lives are capitalized.
Interest and other financial charges incurred during the construction of property, plant and equipment are recognized as an increase in the cost of the construction in progress.
The work that the Group performs on its own assets is recognized at cost, which is external costs plus internal costs, determined on the basis of in-house consumption of warehouse materials, direct labour costs incurred and general manufacturing costs allocated based on throughput rates similar to those used to value inventories.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis based on the assets' cost less residual value. The land on which the Group's buildings and other structures stand is deemed to have an indefinite useful life and, therefore, is not depreciated.
The annual depreciation charges are made with a balancing entry in the consolidated income statement as a function of the assets' estimated useful lives. The average estimated useful lives of the items comprising property, plant and equipment are shown below:
| Annual depreciation rate |
|
|---|---|
| Straight-line depreciation charge: | |
| Buildings | 14% |
| Other plant | 20% |
| Furniture & fittings | 10% |
| Computer equipment | 25% |
| Other items of PP&E | 20% |
Assets under construction earmarked for production or for administrative or commercial use, are recognized at cost, less any impairment losses. Cost includes professional fees. Depreciation of these assets commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets for indications of impairment. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). If the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from those of other assets, the Parent Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. To estimate value in use, the Group discounts the asset's estimated future cash flows to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset in question for which the estimated future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the estimated recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is lower than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of that asset (or CGU) is written down to its recoverable amount. The impairment loss is expensed in profit and loss immediately.
When an impairment loss subsequently reverts, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is written up to its newly estimated recoverable amount, so long as the restated carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been recognized had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or CGU) in prior years. The impairment loss is reversed in profit and loss immediately.
This consolidated balance sheet heading includes the assets that the consolidated companies:
The Parent's directors believe that the Group's inventories do not qualify as investment properties under IAS 40. As a result, the land and other properties it holds for sale are considered inventories once integrated into a real estate development.
Land and sites are measured at the lower of (i) acquisition cost plus any planning costs, costs specific to the acquisition (transfer tax, registration fees, etc.) and the borrowing costs incurred during execution of the planning work; or (ii) estimated market value.
Construction in progress refers to costs incurred in property developments, or sections thereof, whose construction is not complete at the reporting date. These costs include those corresponding to the site, urban planning, construction work, capitalized borrowing costs incurred from the start of the technical and administrative work required prior to commencing construction and during the construction period itself, and other direct costs and indirect costs that can be allocated to the developments.
The Group companies transfer the costs accumulated under "Construction in progress" to "Finished properties" when the construction of its developments or sections thereof is complete.
Sales costs, other than sales commissions conditional upon the sale going through, are expensed currently.
Costs accumulated for developments for which the forecast construction termination date is within 12 months of the reporting date are classified as "Short-cycle developments in progress".
The Group reviews its inventories for indications of impairment periodically, recognizing the required impairment provisions as warranted in keeping with the criteria described below. The cost of the land and sites and developments in progress and completed is reduced to their fair value by recognizing the appropriate impairment provision. If the fair value of the Group's inventories is above cost, however, the cost/contribution amounts are left unchanged.
The fair value of the Group's inventories is estimated based on appraisals performed by independent experts not related to the Group (Savills Aguirre Newman Valoraciones y Tasaciones, S.A.U.). Those appraisals calculate fair value primarily using the dynamic residual method for land and the discounted cash flow method for developments in progress and finished developments, in keeping with the Valuation and Appraisal Standards published by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) of Great Britain, and the International Valuation Standards (IVS) published by the International Valuation Standards Committee (IVSC).
To calculate fair value, the Group has used the dynamic residual method and the discounted cash flow method for inventories of land and developments in progress/finished developments, respectively, as mentioned above. The methodology consists of estimating the value of the land/developments in progress/finished developments by means of the comparative or discounted cash flow method which is then reduced by the development costs still to be incurred for each property, depending on its stage of completion (such costs therefore include any planning costs, construction costs, fees, duties, sales costs, etc.), and the developer's margin in order to estimate the residual value. The sources of income and costs are spread out in time to reflect the development timelines and sales estimated by the appraiser. The discount rate used is that representing the average annual return on the project, adjusted for the property's intrinsic characteristics and risks, without factoring in external borrowings, that a developer would obtain on a development of similar characteristics to that being analysed. The discount rate is arrived at by adding the risk-free rate and the risk premium (determined by assessing the development's risk in light of the nature of the property to be developed or under development, its location, liquidity, execution timeline and the investment required).
Given the uncertainty intrinsic in any forward-looking information, actual results may well differ from the projections used to estimate the recoverable amount of the Group's inventories, which could make it necessary to change these estimates (upwards or downwards) in future years; as disclosed in Note 2.d, any such changes would be applied prospectively.
As of December 31, 2019, all the Group's assets (except for those covered by a pre-sale agreement and prepayments to suppliers) had been valued by an independent expert and that expert's appraisal values were used as inputs in testing its inventories for impairment.
Note that the appraisals took the form of individual asset-by-asset analysis, factoring in the building standards planned for each, which in term determine the associated contracting costs and sales price ranges. An individual assessment was also made of the average length of time expected to be needed to obtain the various planning permits and requirements and the average length of time needed to build each development as function of its nature and density.
Lastly, the appraisal exercise entailed the calculation of a discount rate for each project, which was then stressed depending on the state of progress of the various developments. The discount rates used vary depending on the state of development of the asset (untransformed land, developments under construction, developments being sold from plan and finished developments). They range between 6% and 16%, the weighted average discount rate being 11.4% (11.8% as of December 31, 2018). The decrease is attributable to the progress made on executing the works and off-plan sales percentages as of December 31, 2019.
Having made a first estimate of how much the assets are worth, the valuation methods are checked to ensure the reasonableness of certain ratios such as the percentage of land to finished product, profit over construction costs or profit as a function of sales.
Other assumptions are unchanged from one development to the next, the main ones being:
Trade receivables do not accrue interest and are recognized at their face value less provisions for impairment, if any.
For the impairment calculation of trade receivables as of 31 December 2019, the Group applies the simplified approach under IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses). Although, it causes no impact in the consolidated financial statements, mainly due to the fact that the agreements signed with customers are terminable if they fail to comply with their payment commitments.
The amounts received from customers as down payments for land and/or buildings, whether in cash or trade bills, before the sale is recognized are recognized under "Customer prepayments" within current liabilities.
Financial assets are measured at its fair value plus or minus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset. Despite this, at initial recognition, the Group measures trade receivables at their transaction price if the trade receivables do not contain a significant financing component.
The Group companies' financial assets are mainly classified as subsequently measured at amortized cost, because mainly such financial assets are held within a business model whose objective is 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 are derecognized by the different Group companies when the contractual rights over the cash flows of the financial asset expire or when substantially all the risks and benefits inherent to ownership of the financial asset are transferred.
At the end of each reporting period, the Parent's directors assess and recognize the applicable loss allowance for expected credit losses.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the net assets of the Group.
The Group companies' financial liabilities are mainly held-to-maturity financial liabilities, which are classified as subsequently measured at amortized cost.
The equity instruments issued by the Parent are recognized in equity at the amount received net of direct issuance costs.
Interest-bearing bank loans and overdrafts are recognized at the amount received, net of direct issuance costs. Finance costs, including premiums payable upon settlement or repayment and direct issuance costs, are recognized on an accrual basis in the consolidated income statement using the effective interest method and they are added to the carrying amount of the financial instrument to the extent that they are not settled in the year in which they accrue.
Trade payables do not accrue interest and are recognized at face value.
Derivatives are recognized at fair value and subsequent changes in their fair value are recognized in profit and loss.
Own shares acquired by the Parent during the year are recognized at the amount of consideration given in exchange and are presented as a deduction from equity. The gains and losses resulting from the purchase, sale, issuance or cancellation of own equity instruments are recognized directly in equity and are not reclassified to profit or loss under any circumstances.
In drawing up the consolidated financial statements, the Parent's directors distinguish between:
The consolidated financial statements recognize all provisions in respect of which it is considered more likely than not that a present obligation exists.
Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements, but they are disclosed in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements, unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is deemed remote, as required under IAS 37.
Provisions (which are estimated using the best information available regarding the consequences of the event giving rise to their recognition and re-estimated at each reporting date) are used to cover the specific obligations for which they were initially recognized; they are reversed, in full or in part, when these obligations cease to exist or diminish.
The compensation to be received from a third party when an obligation is settled is recognized as a separate asset so long as it is virtually certain that the reimbursement will be received, unless the risk has been contractually externalized so that the Company is legally exempt from having to settle, in which case the reimbursement is taken into consideration in estimating the amount of the provision, if any.
There were no contingent liabilities, contingent assets or penalties for delays in delivering houses at either reporting date, December 31, 2019 and 2018.
The consolidated income tax expense is recognized in the consolidated income statement, except when it relates to transactions recognized directly in consolidated equity, in which case the related tax is likewise recognized in consolidated equity.
Tax expense (tax income) comprises current tax expense (current tax income) and deferred tax expense (deferred tax income).
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are those expected to be recoverable or payable on the differences between the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities in the financial statements and the tax bases used to calculate taxable income and are recognized using the liability method in the consolidated balance sheet. They are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized for temporary differences originating from investments in subsidiaries and associates and interests in joint ventures unless the Group can control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
However:
Recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities are reassessed at each reporting date to check that they still qualify for recognition and the appropriate adjustments are made on the basis of the outcome of the analyses performed, factoring in any applicable quantitative and/or time limits.
At December 27, 2017, the Board of Directors resolved to avail of the consolidated tax regime (contemplated in article 55 et seq. of the Spanish Corporate Income Tax - Law 27/2014) in 2018 and thereafter, Aedas Homes, S.A. being the parent of the tax group.
The Group recognizes their ordinary income in a way that the transference of goods and services that are committed with their clients is recorded by the amount that reflects the compensation that the entity expects to receive in exchange to those goods or services, performing an analysis according to the following steps:
Given the characteristics of the contracts signed with clients do not differ significantly, and according to the standard, the Group applies a collective accounting treatment to them.
The Group companies recognize property development sales and the related cost when the properties are handed over and title thereto has been transferred. For these purposes, the sale of a finished residential product is understood to have occurred when the keys are handed over, which coincides with the exchange of the deeds. A sale is not deemed closed for revenue recognition purposes until this happens.
Ordinary income does not include discounts, value added tax and other sales taxes.
Expenses are recognized on an accrual basis.
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method, by reference to the principal outstanding and the applicable effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset's carrying amount.
Dividend income from equity investments is recognized when the shareholders' right to receive payment is established.
Expenses are recognized in the income statement when a decrease in future economic benefits related to a decrease in an asset or an increase in a liability has arisen that can be measured reliably. This means that recognition of expenses occurs simultaneously with the recognition of an increase in liabilities or a decrease in assets.
An expense is recognized immediately when an expenditure produces no future economic benefits or when future economic benefits do not qualify for recognition as an asset.
Similarly, an expense is recognized when a liability is assumed and no asset is recorded, such as a liability related to extension of a guarantee.
As a general rule, commissions paid to external agents that are not specifically allocable to the developments, albeit unquestionably related thereto, incurred between the start of the development work and recognition of the related sales as revenue are accrued under "Prepayments and accrued income" on the asset side of the balance sheet and are expensed upon recognition of the related revenue so long as at each reporting date the margin deriving from the sales contracts entered into and pending recognition as revenue is higher than such expenses. If a given development does not present a positive margin, these expenses are reclassified to the consolidated income statement.
Sales costs, other than sales commissions conditional upon the sale going through, are expensed currently to the consolidated income statement.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to ready for their intended use or sale - are capitalized within the cost of those assets until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale or their development is suspended. Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending investment in qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
In the case of funds obtained from generic loans, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization is determined by applying a capitalization rate to the sum invested in the asset in question. That capitalization rate is the weighted average rate of interest borne on the loans received by the consolidated companies that were outstanding during the reporting period other than loans arranged specifically to finance certain assets. The amount of borrowing costs capitalized during the year did not exceed total interest expense incurred during the same.
Operating profit or loss is presented before the Group's share of associates' earnings, income from financial investments and finance costs.
Under prevailing labour law, the Group is obliged to pay severance to employees who are discontinued under certain circumstances. Redundancy payments that can be reasonably estimated are recognized as an expense in the year in which the redundancy decision is taken.
No provision has been recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements in this connection at either December 31, 2019 or December 31, 2018 as no workforce restructuring is currently contemplated.
The remuneration earned by the Parent's key management personnel (refer to Note 20) is recognized on an accrual basis such that the Group recognizes the corresponding provision at each reporting date in respect of any amounts that have not yet been paid.
In the case of equity-settled share-based transactions, both the services provided to the Group companies and the related increase in equity are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted with reference to the date of their grant. If, on the other hand, they are settled in cash, the goods and services received and the corresponding liability are recognized at the fair value of the latter, with reference to the date on which the vesting conditions are met.
Environmental assets are long-lived assets used in the ordinary course of the Group's business whose ultimate purpose is to minimize the Group's environmental impact and to improve its environmental record and include assets designed to reduce or eliminate future contamination.
Given the activities in which the Group is involved, it has no environmental liabilities, expenses, assets, provisions or contingencies that could be material in respect of its equity, financial position or performance. Environmental disclosures are accordingly not provided in these consolidated financial statements.
The Group carries out all transactions with related parties (whether financial, commercial or other in nature) at transfer prices that meet the OECD's rules governing transactions with Group companies and associates. The Group has duly met its documentation requirements in respect of these transfer prices so that the Parent's directors believe there is no significant risk of related liabilities of material amount.
In the event of a significant difference between the price so established and the fair value of a transaction between related parties, the difference would be considered a distribution of profits or contribution of funds between Group companies and as such would be recognized with a charge or credit to a reserves account, as warranted.
The Group Aedas Homes conducts all related-party transactions on an arm's length basis.
The following assets are classified as current assets: assets associated with the normal operating cycle (which is generally considered one year); other assets that are expected to mature, be sold or realized within twelve months of the reporting date; financial assets held for trading other than financial derivatives due for settlement more than 12 months from the reporting date; and cash and cash equivalents. Any assets that do not meet these criteria are classified as non-current assets.
Likewise, the following liabilities are classified as current liabilities: those related with the normal operating cycle; financial liabilities held for trading other than financial derivatives due for settlement more than 12 months from the reporting date; and, in general, all liabilities that fall due or will be extinguished within 12 months of the reporting date. All other liabilities are presented as non-current.
The breakdown of short and long-term inventories is included in Note 10.
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method, which requires identification of the acquisition date, calculation of the cost of the combination and recognition of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition-date fair values.
Goodwill (or a gain on a bargain purchase) is calculated as the difference between the fair values of the net assets acquired and the cost of the business combination, all as of the acquisition date. The cost of a business combination is the aggregate of:
The cost of a business combination does not include expenses related with the issuance of any equity instruments or financial liabilities delivered in exchange for the assets acquired.
In the exceptional event of a gain on a bargain purchase, the gain is recognized in the income statement.
If at the end of the reporting period in which the business combination occurs it is not possible to complete the valuation work needed to apply the acquisition method outlined above, the business combination is accounted for provisionally. The provisional amounts recognized can be adjusted within a measurement period of no more than one year from the acquisition date to reflect access to new information. The effects of any such adjustments are accounted for retroactively, modifying the comparative information as necessary.
Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognized in profit or loss, unless the consideration has been classified in equity, in which case subsequent changes in its fair value are not recognized.
The Parent recognizes, on the one hand, the goods and services received as an asset or expense, depending on their nature, at the time they are received and, the corresponding increase in equity, if the transaction is settled using equity instruments, or the corresponding liability, if it is settled in an amount that is based on the value of the equity instruments, on the other.
In the case of equity-settled share-based transactions, both the services provided to the Group companies and the related increase in equity are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted with reference to the date of their grant. If, on the other hand, they are settled in cash, the goods and services received and the corresponding liability are recognized at the fair value of the latter, with reference to the date on which the vesting conditions are met.
The assets and liabilities arising from all leases (except for the short-term leases and leases of low-value assets) in which the Group acts as the lessee, under a contract, or part of a contract, which conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 2.a.
The Group has defined neither operating nor geographical segments since its business consists exclusively of property development in Spain.
Investments in an associate or, where applicable, in a joint venture, are recognized under the equity method; initially the investment in an associate or a joint venture is recognised at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognise the investor's share of the profit or loss of the investee after the date of acquisition. The investor's share of the investee's profit or loss is recognised in the investor's profit or loss. Distributions received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. Adjustments to the carrying amount may also be necessary for changes in the investor's proportionate interest in the investee arising from changes in the investee's other comprehensive income. Such changes include those arising from the revaluation of property, plant and equipment and from foreign exchange translation differences. The investor's share of those changes is recognised in the investor's other comprehensive income.
Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to equity holders of the Parent (i.e., after tax and profit/loss attributable to non-controlling interests) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period.
Accordingly:
| Euros | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | ||
| Profit/(loss) for the period attributable to equity holders of the | |||
| Parent | 31,571,885 | 2,454,815 | |
| Number of shares outstanding (Note 13) | 47,966,587 | 47,966,587 | |
| Basic earnings/(loss) per share | 0.66 | 0.05 |
Diluted earnings per share is calculated similarly to basic earnings per share; however, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted to factor in the potential dilutive effect of options over the Parent's shares, warrants and convertible debt outstanding at each year-end.
As of December 31, 2019, the Parent held 1,485,057 own shares (46,166 at the end of year 2018), not holding any other dilutive equity instrument, so the diluted earnings per share amounts to 0.68 euros (the diluted earnings per share was 0.05 euros at the end of year 2018).
Changes in the group´s composition are described in Notes 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3.

In 2019, the Group capitalized 10,973,316 euros (7,418,498 euros in year 2018) of borrowing costs in inventories (Note 4.3). The average cost of the borrowings capitalized was approximately 2.10% (2.12% in year 2018).
None of the Group's inventories are located outside of Spain. The locations of the Group's inventories, stated at their carrying amounts, without considering prepayments to suppliers, are as follows:

No inventories were derecognized or transferred in 2019 other than the inventories sold in the amount of 311,483,243 euros (79,822,668 euros in 2018) (Note 18.a), triggering the derecognition of inventories carried at 209,742,176 euros (56,768,927 euros in 2018).
As of December 31, 2019, there are contractual commitments to the purchase of plots for an amount of 45,749,145 euros (46,451,714 in 2018), of which an amount of 11,100,000 euros have been paid, as advances (11,410,000 in 2018), and which are included as Prepayments to Suppliers under the Current Assets on the Balance Sheet. Of the total amount recognized under "Trade and other accounts payable - Customer prepayments" within Current Liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019, an amount of 155,214,690 euros (120.373.364 euros at year-end 2018) corresponds to down payments from customers for house unit reservations and private house contracts.
At December 31, 2019, and 2018, there are no sales commitments.
At December 31, 2019, "Inventories" includes assets with a gross carrying amount of 500 million euros (304.6 million euros at the end of the year 2018) that have been pledged as collateral to secure the developer loans obtained by the Group (Note 14).
At the reporting date, the Group had insurance policies covering the inventories on which development work had begun.
The net realizable value assigned by Savills Aguirre Newman Valoraciones y Tasaciones, S.A.U. to the portfolio of inventories amounts to 1,962 million euros (1,768 million euros in 2018). Said amount does not include supplier prepayments (18.336.826 euros at the end of 2019, and 11,628,662 euros at the end of 2018) or assets subject to a sale option, if any (none at the end of 2019 and 2018), as the directors have assumed that there is no indication that these assets are impaired. In light of the appraiser methodology described in Note 4.3, the key valuation hypotheses are the discount rate and sales prices modelled. As a result of the above, the Group recognized an impairment charge of 1,542,943 euros at December 31, 2019 (1,484,975 euros at the end of the year 2018), and the valuation implies an unrealized capital gains amounting to 683 million euros (704 million euros at year-end 2018).

As of 31 December 2019, the Group has recognized current provisions for a total amount of 8,912,312 euros, corresponding to provisions for the completion of construction projects (793,825 euros at year-end 2018).
"Trade and other receivables" broke down as follows at year-end 2019 and 2018:
| Euros | ||

The Group regularly analyses its credit risk in respect of its accounts receivable, updating the corresponding provision for impairment accordingly. The Parent's directors believe that the carrying amounts of the Group's trade and other receivables approximate their fair value.
Under "Trade receivables" a balance of 29,848,979 euros (32,098,138 euros at year-end 2018) has been recognized for trade bills, which includes customer remittances not due until 2020 in the amount of 29,150,403 euros (29,505,898 euros at year-end 2018).
In order to calculate the impairment of accounts receivable at December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Group has applied the simplified approach under IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses). However, this has no impact on the consolidated financial statements, mainly due to the fact that the agreements signed with customers can be terminated if they fail to comply with their payment commitments.
Trade receivables do not accrue interest. The directors believe that the carrying amounts of the Company's trade and other receivables approximate their fair value.
"Cash and cash equivalents" includes the Group's cash on hand and short-term bank deposits with original maturities of three months or less. The carrying amount of these assets approximates their fair value.

The amount pledged to cover the interest on mortgage loans amounted to 0 euros at December 31, 2019 (154,564 euros at December 31, 2018), for guarantees delivered to customers 771,364 euros (348,067 euros at December 31, 2018), for corporate financing costs a total of 6,249,756 euros (1,831,358 euros in 2018) and to cover sureties a total of 731,598 euros.
There were no restrictions on the use of the Group's cash at December 31, 2019 except for the fact, as required under Spanish Law 20/2015, that down payments received in connection with residential developments must be deposited in a special account separate from the rest of the Group's funds and may only be used to cover expenses deriving from the construction of the developments. The balance subject to this restriction amounted to 46,322,219 euros at year-end 2019 (40,123,161 at year-end 2018). The amount of cash that was restricted at year-end 2019 accordingly totalled 53,303,574 euros (42,457,149 euros at year-end 2018).
The Parent was incorporated on June 9, 2016 with initial share capital of 3,000 euros, represented by 3,000 indivisible, sequentially-numbered equity interests (participaciones sociales) with a unit par value of 1 euro, all of which were subscribed and paid for by Structured Finance Management (Spain), S.L.
On July 5, 2016, Structured Finance Management sold its equity interests in the Parent to Hipoteca 43 Lux, S.A.R.L., a company domiciled in Luxembourg with registered office at 534 Rue de Neudorf L2220, Luxembourg and tax ID number N0184886J. Accordingly, as at July 5, 2016, Hipoteca 43 Lux, S.A.R.L. was the Parent's Sole Shareholder.
On March 30, 2017, the Company received a non-monetary equity contribution from its Majority Shareholder in the amount of 314,032,337 euros. In exchange, the Company issued 31,403,231 equity interests with a unit par value of one euro, with the remainder of the contribution deemed a share premium (Note 1.1).
On June 29, 2017, the Company received another non-monetary equity contribution from its Majority Shareholder in the amount of 23,140,283 euros.

On August 16, 2017, the Company received another non-monetary equity contribution from its Majority Shareholder in the amount of 110,867,709 euros. In exchange, the Company issued 11,086,771 equity interests with a unit par value of one euro, with the remainder of the contribution recognized as a share premium (Note 1.1).
On September 12, 2017, the Company officially converted from a limited liability company to a public limited company and its share capital was thus represented by 44,807,030 ordinary shares (rather than 'equity interests') with a unit par value of one euro.
On October 19, 2017, it formalized a deed of capital increase through a cash contribution amounting to 99,999,979 euros, with waiver of the right of preferred subscription by the Majority Shareholder, through an Offer of Subscription of shares of the Company. As a result of the foregoing, the company issued 3,159,557 shares with a par value of one euro and the rest was an issue premium.
At December 31, 2019, and 2018, the Parent's share capital accordingly consisted of 47,966,587 shares, with a par value of one euro each. The shares are fully subscribed and paid in.
None of the Parent's shares was pledged at either December 31, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

In accordance with article 274 of the consolidated text of the Spanish Corporate Enterprises Act, 10% of profits must be earmarked to endowment of the legal reserve each year until it represents at least 20% of share capital.
The legal reserve may be used to increase capital in an amount equal to the portion of the balance that exceeds 10% of capital after the increase.
Except for this purpose, until the legal reserve exceeds the limit of 20% of capital, it can only be used to offset losses, if there are no other reserves available.
This legal reserve was not fully endowed at either year-end.
The share premium amounts to 500,076,721 euros at 31 December 2019 and 2018. The balance of the share premium account can be freely distributed.
As stated in the Spanish Corporate Enterprise Act (article 273), dividends may only be drawn on the year´s profits or freely available reserves after meeting the requirements laid down by law and in the bylaws, and if the value of the corporate equity is nor, or as result of such distribution would not be, less than the company´s capital. For these purposes, any profit directly allocated to total equity may not be distributed either directly or indirectly. In the event of losses in preceding years that reduce corporate equity to less than the company´s capital, profits shall be used to offset such losses.
No dividends were paid out in 2019 and 2018. However, there are no restrictions on the payment of dividends at December 31, 2019, other than those provided for by the commercial legislation.

On July 30, 2018, Group subsidiary SPV Reoco 1, S.L.U. acquired 22,500 shares in SPV Spain 2, S.L. (giving it a 22.5% shareholding) from Big Change, S.L. for 4,191,556 euros. In the wake of that acquisition, SPV Reoco 1, S.L.U. holds 87.5% of SPV Spain 2, S.L. (the subsidiary building a housing development in Andratx). As part of the same proceedings, the Group Parent, Aedas Homes, S.A., purchased from Big Change, S.L. the latter's credit claims over SPV Spain 2, S.L. for 3,178,444 euros (3,130,013 euros of which corresponding to loan principal and 48,431 euros to interest accrued as of the date of execution of the agreement). In the financial year 2018, the subsidiary ESPEBE 11, S.L returned minority partner contributions and paid an interim dividend totalling an amount of 768 thousand euros, and the company FACORNATA SERVICIOS Y GESTIONES, S.L. returned minority partner contributions in an amount of 13,300 euros.
On September 26, 2017, the Majority Shareholder approved a long-term incentive plan payable entirely in shares for the CEO, Senior Management and certain key personnel, structured into three overlapping three-year periods or cycles (from the IPO, i.e., October 20, 2017, to December 31, 2020; from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021; and from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022). The metrics to be used to measure delivery of the targets for the first cycle are, in equal parts: (i) EBITDA; (ii) the net development margin; and (iii) the shareholder return. For each there are minimum thresholds below which the bonuses do not accrue; there is also scope for outperformance. The number of shares to be received by each participant will be determined by the price of the shares in each three-year cycle (the IPO price for the first cycle and the average trading price during the 20 trading sessions prior to the start of the second and third cycles) and the level of target delivery. All of the shares received by the CEO and 50% of those received by the Senior Management cannot be sold for a year after they are received. In the case of the CEO and members of the Management Committee, this bonus is subject to repayment under certain circumstances. The cost of this incentive plan will be assumed by the Group. The maximum amount receivable by the plan beneficiaries is 11 million euros. The plan was endorsed by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee on February 27, 2018 and was executed with the beneficiaries between March and April 2018.
The amount recognized under "Other equity instruments" in respect of the commitment assumed under the long-term incentive plan by the Parent vis-a-vis its key management personnel stood at 2,179,770 euros (1,123,888 euros at year-end 2018).
The voluntary reserve came about as a result of the difference between the fair value at which the real estate development business was contributed and the amounts at which that business was carried in the then Majority Shareholder's financial statements (Note 1.1).
The movement recorded during the financial year 2019 and 2018 corresponds to the result of purchases and sales of its own shares, as shown previously in the section e).
Movements during financial year 2019 relate mainly to changes in the composition of the Group (sale of Milos Asset Development, S.L.U. and Servicios Inmobiliarios Licancabur, S.L.) and the recognition of companies' incorporation expenses (Egon Asset Development, S.L.U., Ipala Asset Development, S.L.U., Milos Asset Development, S.L.U. and Turnkey Projects Development, S.L.U.).
Movements during financial year 2018 relate mainly to changes in the composition of the Group because of the purchase of SPV Spain 2, S.L. shares, as well as the recognition of merger expenses.

On June 14, 2019, the Parent issued a new "AEDAS HOMES 2019 Commercial Paper Notes Program" on Spain's alternative fixed income market (MARF in its Spanish acronym), to replace the commercial paper issued on June 12, 2018. It can issue up to 150,000,000 euros of paper under the program with terms of up to 24 months. The idea is to diversify the Group's sources of financing.
During 2019, the Parent closed several issues under the program, issuing a total amount of 194.3 million euros, of which 150 million euros have been repaid on maturity, an amount of 78.3 million euros remaining, which falls due in several tranches, until November 2020. The effective annual cost of these issues is 0.99%.
During 2018, the Parent closed several issues under the previous program on Spain's alternative fixed income market, issuing a total amount of 78.2 million euros; of which an amount of 44.2 million euros was repaid at maturity, an amount of 34.4 million euros remaining, which fell due in several tranches, until May 2019. The effective annual cost of those issues was 0.70%.
The commercial paper is initially recognized at the fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequently, the implicit interest on the paper is accrued using the effective interest rate on the transaction so that the carrying amount of these borrowings is adjusted for the interest accrued. The commercial paper issued by the Parent was carried at 78,009,410 euros at December 31, 2019, recognized by using the effective interest rate method (33,953,563 euros at December 31, 2018).
On August 6, 2018, the Parent arranged a 150,000,000 euros corporate syndicated loan which was used to finance land purchases; it had six months to draw the loan down. Said availability period was extended until August 8, 2020 with a 0.25% extension fee. It has a maturity of 24 months and carried interest of 3.5% in year one and 4.25% in year two. At December 31, 2019, the nominal balance drawn down is 150 million euros (60 million euros at December 31, 2018). The amount recognized by using the amortized cost method at December 31, 2019 is 148,407,984 euros (57,630,275 euros at December 31, 2018).
On October 17, 2017, AEDAS Homes arranged an equity swap with Goldman Sachs to hedge the exposure arising from its obligation to deliver a certain number of shares to employees of AEDAS Homes under the long-term incentive plan (LTIP) approved by the Board of Directors on September 26, 2017. As of December 31, 2019, the fair value of the derivative is 1,196,640 euros (1,114,568 euros at year-end 2018), recognized as a liability.
Financial assets and liabilities recognized at fair value are categorized by the Group in the following three levels based on the relevance of the inputs used in the fair value measurement:

In keeping with the ICAC Resolution, in calculating the average supplier payment term, the Company considered the commercial transactions relating to goods or services delivered and accrued since Law 31/2014 (of December 3, 2014) came into effect.

The Group's business activities do not have a significant environmental impact so that it does not hold any fixed assets for the purpose of minimizing its environmental impact and/or enhancing environmental protection.
The Group, of which Aedas Homes is the Parent (Note 1), manages its capital so as to ensure that the Group companies will be able to continue as profitable concerns while maximizing shareholder returns by balancing its debt versus equity structure.
Financial risk management is centralized in the Corporate Finance Department, which has established the mechanisms necessary for controlling exposure to credit and liquidity risk and, to a lesser extent, interest rate risk.
The Group is not significantly exposed to credit risk as collection of the proceeds from the sale of its developments to customers is guaranteed by the properties sold; in addition, it places its cash surpluses with highly solvent banks in respect of which counterparty risk is not material.
The Group determines its liquidity requirements by means of cash forecasts, these forecasts pinpoint when the Group will need funds and how much and new funding initiatives are planned accordingly.
In order to ensure ongoing liquidity and the ability to service all the payment commitments arising from its business operations, the Group holds the cash balances shown on the balance sheet as well as the credit lines and financing agreements detailed in note 14.
The Parent's directors believe that these arrangements will be sufficient to cover its cash requirements and those of its subsidiaries going forward. The liquidity function is managed at the Group level, so that the operating companies do not face liquidity shortfalls and can concentrate on pursuing their real estate developments, which are financed using external borrowings.
Although the Group's cash balances and borrowings both expose it to interest rate risk, and this could have an adverse impact on its net finance costs and cash flows, the Parent's directors have not deemed it necessary to write interest rate hedges.
No accounts receivable from Group companies, related parties or third parties were past due at December 31, 2019.
On June 14, 2019, the Parent issued the new "AEDAS HOMES 2019 Commercial Paper Notes Program" on Spain's alternative fixed income market (MARF in its Spanish acronym), in substitution of the commercial paper notes program arranged on June 12, 2018. It can issue up to 150,000,000 euros of paper under the program with terms of up to 24 months. The idea is to diversify the Group's sources of financing. During the financial year 2019, the Parent closed several issues under the program, issuing a total nominal amount of 194.3 million euros; an amount of 150 million euros have been amortized at maturity, remaining a nominal amount of 78.3 million euros that falls due on several terms, until November 2020.
On August 6, 2018, the Parent arranged a 150,000,000 euros corporate syndicated loan which was used to finance land purchases; it had six months to draw the loan down. Said availability period was extended until August 8, 2020 with a 0.25% extension fee. It has a maturity of 24 months and carried interest of 3.5% in year one and 4.25% in year two. At December 31, 2019, the nominal balance drawn down is 150 million euros (60 million euros at December 31, 2018). The amount recognized by using the amortized cost method at December 31, 2019 is 148,407,984 euros (57,630,275 euros at December 31, 2018).
The business plan includes a maximum leverage ratio at the Group level of 30-35%.
Interest-rate risk:
A 100 basis point movement in interest rates would have increased finance costs by 1,490,584 euros in 2019 (and by 759,606 euros in FY18).
No events have taken place since the end of the reporting period that could have a material impact on the information presented in the consolidated financial statements authorized for issue by the directors or that are worthy of disclosure on account of their materiality, other than that disclosed below:
payment of 50 cents per share in November of this year. Ordinary dividends will be paid every six months after the presentation of results to the market (50% in each period), corresponding to the first and second half of the year. Dividends will grow in line with the Company's cash flow generation for the period 2020-2023. Dividend payment may be made in cash or by the delivery of own shares.
‐ On 25 February 2020, the Board of Directors approved increasing the limit of the share buyback programme from € 50 m to € 150 m, while maintaining the other conditions approved by the Board on 25 September 2019.

2019, the first year in which the company has generated significant revenue from the delivery of homes, was a year marked by significant progress on execution of AEDAS Homes' 2017- 2023 business plan. By year-end, the company had delivered 833 homes (79% of guidance); it had secured completion certificates for 26 developments encompassing 1,124 homes (106% of guidance); and occupancy permits for a further 23 developments with 936 homes (89% of guidance), thus demonstrating that it is ready to culminate the delivery phase in early 2020.
Moreover, visibility was similarly good at the December close regarding the company's ability to meet its deliveries guidance for 2020 and 2021. With respect to 2020, at year-end, work was underway on 100% of the 1,986 deliveries targeted for this year, with over 93% of those houses more than 50% complete. Furthermore, 77% of the houses slated for delivery have already been sold. As for the delivery guidance for 2021, at year-end, the company had 82% of its delivery target under construction and 35% of those units were already pre-sold.
Evidencing the company's operational strength during its ramp-up phase as it moves towards its cruising speed, in 2019, the company launched 2,635 housing units, lifting the total number launched to date to 6,672. Pre-sales, meanwhile, amounted to 1,663 units, putting the total sold since the start of operations at 3,818 houses (which is 57% of cumulative launches). That sales figure, netting out the units already delivered by year-end 2019, puts the year-end order book at 2,738 homes worth revenue of €925 million. In parallel, the company started work on 2,228 units in 2019, ending the year with a total of 4,198 units under construction.
Elsewhere, it is worth noting that AEDAS Homes was the first institutional developer to strike an agreement for the turnkey development of residential buildings for a third party for subsequent rental (build-to-rent formula) when it signed an agreement with a subsidiary of Ares Management Corporation (NYSE: ARES) last March. The agreement contemplates the sale of four buildings encompassing c.500 houses.
In another pioneering move, AEDAS Homes was also the first developer to sign an agreement to swap finished developments with another institutional player, specifically Aliseda, a benchmark home-seller. In December 2019, and committing to immediate development, the company took a majority interest in two plots of land, one in Colmenar Viejo and the other in Arganda del Rey, Madrid; the company will develop 198 homes between the two sites. The land will be paid for by delivering the finished houses built on the sites to the seller, Aliseda.
AEDAS Homes also remained one of the most active purchasers of land. Its investment thrust throughout 2019 was focused on 20 new projects with scope for the development of 1,259 homes accounting for €87.41 m which will require an additional €2.6 m capex. The investments closed over the course of 2019 are designed to comply with the new development launch targets set by the company in its 2017- 2023 business plan.
It is also worth highlighting the agreement reached with Castlelake, L.P. ("Project Land") in 2019, under which AEDAS Homes will be able to co-invest in strategic land that is not fully permitted and manage it until it is ready to build. Between the signing and year-end 2019, a total
1. Including all acquisition costs.
of four transactions covering the potential development of 508 homes (the number corresponding to AEDAS Homes) have closed. "Project Land" provides the company with an additional long-term source of land. The initial acquisitions closed under the agreement have demonstrated the alliance's ability to create value.
In addition to the acquisitions already closed, the company holds purchase rights over land with scope for the development of 611 units.
As for land sales, in 2019, the company sold two sites with a development potential of 182 homes for €15.9 million in 2019, representing 101% of their GAV, according to SAVILLS.
Factoring in the investments made, the land sales closed and the deliveries that have already materialised, at 31 December 2019, the company's land bank encompassed c. 15,426 housing units, up 3.5% from year-end 2018 (including the land acquired under the scope of "Project Land").
As for the company's valuation, SAVILLS has assessed its GAV at €1.96 billion and its NAV at €34.78 per share2.
It is also worth highlighting that at year-end, the company had €78 million of commercial paper outstanding under the scope of its shelf programme, the AEDAS HOMES 2019 Commercial Paper Notes Program, having taken advantage of strong demand for this product, thanks to which the company is diversifying its sources of financing at very attractive average rates and maturities.
Earnings-wise, the company recorded revenue of €311 million (€295 million from the sales of housing developments) and a gross margin of 32.7%. As a result, the company's net profit amounted to €31.6 million in 2019, marking the second consecutive year in the black.
At the December 2019 close, inventories stood at €1.27 billion, up 19% from year-end 2018, shaped notably by growth of €75 million to €95 million in finished products (slated for upcoming delivery) and of €149 million in work in progress, to €542 million. Similarly evidencing the company's ramp-up, net debt increased to €214 million, to put the company's LTV and LTC ratios at 11% and 17%, respectively. Of this amount, €38.3 million correspond to completed product pending delivery.
Elsewhere, on 25 July 2019, the company's Board of Directors agreed to buy back shares. The number of own shares repurchased since the start of the initiative stood at 1,485,057, or 3.09% of share capital, as of 31 December.

The Spanish economy has entered a period of slower growth, having been expanding steadily since 2014. Nevertheless, prevailing and forecast growth are above the eurozone averages.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) estimates that the Spanish economy grew by 2% in 2019 and is forecasting growth of 1.8% in 2020. That growth, albeit slower than in previous years, continues to push unemployment lower. According to Spain's statistics office, the INE, unemployment ended 2019 at 13.78%, compared to a peak of 25.8% in 2012. Spain continues to create jobs, this being one of the strongest drivers of demand for housing. Meanwhile, salaries increased by 1.9% in 2019, according to the INE, driven by stronger demand for employees.
A healthy mortgage sector marked by ultra-low rates, low household leverage and a recapitalised banking system are additional factors underpinning stable demand in the market for new housing developments in which prices remain well below their peak. The price situation is in turn improving affordability (measured as house prices / annual household income), an indicator which also remains more propitious for homebuying than in the past.
According to INE data, there is a correction in the number of housing transactions between the months of July and October, due to the effect of the new Mortage Law, and a clear recovery from November with a clear upward trend.
Stable demand for new residential developments, coupled with reduced supply in good locations, drove annual growth in average house prices in Spain of 2.6% in 2019, evidencing the continuing imbalance between supply and demand in sought-after locations and specifically well-designed homes at attractive prices. Despite that price growth, as of December 2019, average sales prices (nationwide) remained 33% below their peak, according to a report published by the appraiser, TINSA.
As far as AEDAS Homes is concerned, in 2019 the company applied an increase in average sales prices of 3.0%, while it sustained growth in construction costs of 6.6%; those indicators evidence a trend of moderation and normalisation in demand towards organic levels following two years of high inflation marked by the materialisation of demand that had been pent up during the sector crisis.
2019 was a good year in the stock markets, which posted widespread gains. Growth was moderate due to the stagnation of German manufacturing and the uncertainty generated by Brexit. In Spain, it was clear that the economy is entering a later stage of the growth cycle, affected by the slowdown in global and European growth, geopolitical tensions and contraction in global trade, all of which exacerbated by political uncertainty in Spain and abroad. However, according to the IMF's forecasts, Spain is set to continue to outperform the main European economies: GDP is expected to grow by almost 2% in 2019 and 1.8% in 2020, compared to the averages forecast for the eurozone of 1.2% and 1.4%, respectively.
As for the stock markets, the main American indices, the Stoxx 600 and the MSCI World Index all ended 2019 near highs, closing between 22% and 37% higher, with the eurozone indices gaining 24.6% on average. Spain's Ibex-35 index closed the year 11.8% higher. Despite the strong global equity market performance, which extended to the Ibex-35, the Spanish homebuilding sector continues to trade at a significant discount to NAV. In 2019, AEDAS Homes continued to outperform its peers, weathering the concerns over the sector's ability to deliver on guidance relatively better. Its share price has trended clearly higher since marking its low for the year on 14 August, against the backdrop of widespread corrections that month.
Nevertheless, the company's strong business performance has not been echoed in its share price performance: its shares ended the year at €21.45, down 3.2% from year-end 2018.
Homes are considered under development from when they enter the design phase until their delivery.
At 31 December 2020, the company had a total of 8,765 homes under development. Of the total, development began on 1,710 in 2019.
The breakdown of the homes under development by phase of development is as follows: 3,108 units at the design stage; 1,166 in the marketing phase; 4,198 under construction; and 293 finished.
Housing units are considered launched once marketing is underway, i.e., they are classified as 'launched' subsequent to the design phase, once they are put up for sale.
Over the course of 2019, the company launched 42 residential developments encompassing 2,635 units in total. That marks year-on-year growth of 35% in the number of developments and of 16% in the number of units launched.
The target was for 2,580 launches in 2019, implying guidance outperformance of 2%.
The GDV of the units launched in 2019 is €824 million, implying an average selling price (ASP) per unit launched of €313,000 which is subject to change over time.
Of the 2,580 units launched in 2019, the breakdown by regional branch is as follows: in the Central region, 823 units representing 31% of the total; in Catalonia, 451 units accounting for 17% of the total; in Andalusia, 662 units representing 25%; on the Costa del Sol, 186 units accounting for 7% of the total; and, lastly, in the Eastern region, 513 units representing 20%.
In the first quarter of 2019, the company launched 498 units corresponding to 10 developments.
In the second quarter of 2019, the company launched 838 units corresponding to 13 developments.
In the third quarter of 2019, the company launched 656 units corresponding to 8 developments.
In the fourth quarter of 2019, the company launched 643 units corresponding to 11 developments.
As of 31 December 2019, the company had launched a cumulative 106 residential developments encompassing 6,672 housing units with a GDV of €2.32 billion. The breakdown by regional branch of the units launched since the company's start-up is as follows: in the Central region, 1,881 units representing 28% of the total; in Catalonia, 1,281 units accounting for 19% of the total; in Andalusia, 1,192 units representing 18%; on the Costa del Sol, 648 units accounting for 10% of the total; and, lastly, in the Eastern region, 1,670 units representing 25%.
The breakdown of pre-sales by quarter:
In the first quarter of 2019, the company presold 300 units for €100 million.
In the second quarter of 2019, it pre-sold 472 units for €146 million.
In the third quarter, it pre-sold 452 units for €143 million.
In the fourth quarter, it pre-sold 439 units for €143 million.
At 31 December 2019, the company had sold an accumulated (2017, 2018 and 2019) 3,818 units representing sales revenue of €1.29 billion. Of that total, 1,080, valued at €363 million, had been delivered. As a result, the order book at year-end amounted to 2,738 units valued at €925 million.
The sale of a unit begins with execution of a presale agreement. Once the company has a building permit for a pre-sold house, the customer is asked to execute a sale contract. Lastly, when the construction work is complete and the occupational licence has been obtained, the customer is asked to sign the deed of purchase, upon which the house is delivered immediately.
In 2019, pre-sales totalled 1,663 homes, marking year-on-year volume growth of 34% (2018: 1,240).
At year-end, two of the sale-purchase agreements signed with Ares Management Corporation (NYSE: ARES) had been executed: the first is a 103-unit housing complex in Torrejón de Ardoz and the second is a 91-unit development to be built on a site in Alcalá de Henares, Madrid.
The value of the units pre-sold in 2019 is €532 million, implying an average selling price (ASP) per unit of €320,000. Pre-sales increased by 19% in 2019 by value.
Accumulated sales in the Central region stood at 1,291 units (34% of the total), of which 203 are pre-sales, 903 are under sale contract and 185 have been delivered.

In 2019, the company began construction on 2,228 homes, marking growth of 104% over the 1,094 on which building started in 2018. At 31 December 2019, the company had a total of 4,198 units under construction, having finished 293 and delivered 1,080, bringing the number on which the company has begun work since starting up to a total of 5,571.

In the second quarter of 2019, construction began on 863 units and finished on 250.
In the third quarter, construction began on 308 units and finished on 576.
And in the fourth quarter, construction began on 537 units and finished on 91.
Building permits are awarded by the municipal authorities. Permit applications include the architectural plans which must necessarily comply with municipal planning and zoning requirements. Municipal authorities are obliged to grant building permits to the extent the plans meet those requirements. The permitting period depends on each authority's responsiveness.
Over the course of 2019, the company obtained a total of 2,679 building permits, growth of 16% over the 2,311 obtained in 2018. That means that by year-end, the company had obtained building permits for 6,062 homes in total.
In the first quarter of 2019, building permits were obtained for 904 units.
In the second quarter, building permits were obtained for 648 units.
The third-quarter figure was 403 units.
In the fourth quarter, the company obtained building permits for 724 homes.
AAEDAS Homes remains one of the most active purchasers of land in Spain. The investments closed over the course of 2019 are designed to fulfil the new development launch targets set by the company in its 2017-2023 business plan.
In keeping with the company's investment policy, the assets acquired in 2019 comprised, at a minimum, Fully Permitted Land (FPL), i.e., land zoned for development but in respect of which either (i) the relevant urban planning and allotment processes have not been fully approved and/or implemented; or (ii) only the utilities and services required for urban use need to be completed for classification as Ready-to-Build (RTB) Land, i.e., land for which only the corresponding building permits are required for the housing developments to proceed. The newly acquired land is located in the provinces with the most dynamic homebuilding markets. Development land is managed by the company's five regional branches. All of the land acquired presents upside of 20% in terms of the net developer margin, calculated assuming acquisition-date average sales prices and costs. The land will be earmarked to the development of unsubsidised homes in the mid to upper-mid segments of the market.
In all, the company closed 20 land purchase transactions in 2019. It is worth highlighting the strategic purchase of land for the first time in the cities of Zaragoza, Pamplona and Vigo. The land acquisitions break down as follows by location/region: three transactions in Granada and four in Seville (Andalusia); three in Javea, one in Denia, two in Valencia, one in Alicante and one in Llucmajor (Eastern region); one in Colmenar Viejo (Central region); one in Rincón de la Victoria (Costa del Sol); one in Vigo, to be coordinated from the Central region; one in Pamplona and one in Zaragoza, to be coordinated by the Catalan region.
In total, the company invested €87.43 million in 2019 in 20 new projects which will require additional investment of an estimated €2.6 million. The newly acquired land presents scope for the development of 1,259 housing units. Fifty-four per cent of those units are located on Ready-to-Build Land and the remaining 46% on Fully Permitted Land.
In sum, the average acquisition cost per housing unit once all of the land is brought to RTB permitting status is estimated at €70,000/unit, ranging from a low of €15,000/unit in the province of Granada to a high of €184,000/unit in Pamplona.
The recent entry into the cities of Zaragoza, Pamplona and Vigo is the result of the company's constant strategic monitoring of Spain's main cities. The analysis conducted revealed that demand for new housing is solid in all three cities (home purchases have doubled from minimum levels), which also present upside price-wise. That demand is mainly the result of population growth since 2016, in turn fuelled by clearcut economic momentum (unemployment rates of under 10% in Zaragoza and Pamplona and slightly below the nationwide average in Vigo) and population migration to these cities from surrounding towns.
Price recovery in these cities is only recent, so that AEDAS Homes is positioning itself in these markets at the start of their respective housing market recoveries. New builds are clearly underrepresented in total home sales in these markets, forcing buyers to look to the second-hand

housing market. Indeed, new development takeup rates are higher than average in these cities.
Lastly, the newly acquired sites are considered prime locations, i.e., top-tier locations in terms of 'desirability' for the company's target audience: the developments will be targeted at the mid to upper-mid segments of the market and the sites are conducive to upholding AEDAS Homes' standards in terms of type of housing, specifications, common areas, etc.
On the land sale front, the company sold two properties located in the Central region in 2019. One of the sites sold is located in Alcalá de Henares and the other, in Tres Cantos, Madrid. They were sold for a combined €15.9 million, representing 101% of their GAV, according to Savills. The land sold presents scope for the development of 182 housing units.
At 31 December 2019, the company's land bank encompassed c. 15,426 housing units, up 3.5% from year-end 2018, net of the deliveries completed to date and the land sold.
In addition to the land acquired outright, the company (i) holds call options on land with scope for the development of 611 units, which would imply investment of €46.84 million (plus an additional estimated €3.1 million); and (ii) has committed to another four transactions under the scope of "Project Land" with scope for the development of 508 homes (the figure corresponding to AEDAS Homes), which will be recognised as inventories by the company once the land is fully permitted and it has exercised its conversion right; the company has invested €13.7 million to acquire these sites, which will require further investments of an estimated €9 million to fully permit them. Of those 508 units, 258 are located in the Central region; 197 on the Costa del Sol; and 53 in Andalusia.
Compared to 2018, the main profit and loss headings clearly evidence the company's rampup: revenue increased by 290% to €311 million in 2019 (€295 million from the sale of housing developments and the remaining €16 million from land sales).
Gross profit amounted to €102 million in 2019, implying a gross margin of 32.7%. That high gross margin reflects the product mix ultimately delivered over the course of 2019.
Direct costs increased by 132% from 2018 to €18.3 million, due to the growth in development launches, once again evidencing the ramp-up stage of the company's business operations. The biggest increase was sustained in sales commissions (230%). It is also worth noting that this heading also recognises the marketing costs associated with all of the developments launched by the September close irrespective of whether or not they were actually delivered during the reporting period.
General expenses were 29% higher year-onyear at €25.2 million, shaped once again by company's stage of development, as it is now close to having the full staff it needs to execute its business plan.
It is also worth noting the increase in finance expenses in the period due to additional drawdowns of the corporate loan and new commercial paper issues.
The company posted a net profit of €31.6 million in 2019, up 1,164% from 2018, fuelled by volume growth, and marking the second consecutive year in the black.

The most noteworthy development in balance sheet terms is the 21% increase in current assets from year-end to €1.49 billion.
That growth was driven mainly by the 19% increase in inventories to €1.27 billion, broken down between land (49%), construction in progress (43%), finished product (7%) advances to suppliers (1%).
The growth in inventories, of €200 million, was financed primarily by the following balance sheet items, among others:
€96 million from trade and other accounts payable, which increased from €172 million at year-end 2018 to €268 million at the December 2019 close. The following movements stand out:
€44 million derived from the issuance of commercial paper, for a total balance outstanding at 31 December 2019 of €78 million.
€171 million came from current bank loans, which increased mainly on account of the €150 million already drawn down under the syndicated loan which was reclassified to current borrowings, as it is now due within 12 months of the reporting date. Drawdowns under the syndicated loan increased by €91 million from yearend 2018; note that this facility was previously included under 'non-current bank borrowings'. Lastly, developer loans increased to €81 million, corresponding €38.3 million to completed product pending delivery.
It is also worth highlighting the €48 million increase in the cash and current prepayments accounts in 2019 which ended the year at €159 million, reflecting the down payments made, mostly in the last quarter of the year.

Elsewhere, the own share repurchases embarked on in 3Q19 are recognised within the company's equity, as a reduction of €30.6 million, under 'own shares and own equity investments'.
On 25 July 2019, the company's Board of Directors agreed to buy back shares, initially in the form of a discretionary programme. That agreement consisted of the buyback of enough shares to lift the number of own shares held as treasury stock to 2,500,000, or 5.2% of capital, capped by an investment limit of €50 million. Subsequently, at a meeting held on 25 September, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase programme for the buyback of shares in addition to those already held as a result of the above discretionary programme, albeit without exceeding the stipulated limits. Note, however, that the maximum number of shares to be repurchased may be reduced if, during the term of the repurchase programme, the company buys back own shares in a block trade.
The cap on the investment in own shares is €50 million during the 36 months elapsing from the start of the Repurchase Programme launched on 1 October 2019.
Any shares acquired under the discretionary programme may be cancelled, sold or used in potential M&A or business deals.
Similarly, all of the shares bought back under the Repurchase Programme will be subsequently cancelled.
Any shares acquired via block trades may be cancelled, sold or used in potential M&A or business deals.
The number of shares bought back between the start of the repurchases on 7 August and 31 December 2019 totals 1,485,057, which is equivalent to 3.09% of the company's capital; the shares were bought back for €30,603,842.365, i.e., at an average price of €20.6079/share6.

Cash and cash equivalents increased from €103 million at the start of 2019 to €148 million at year-end, growth of €46 million.
That increase is the net result of net cash outflows from operating activities of €114 million, net cash outflows from investing activities of €13 million and net proceeds from financing activities of €172 million.
The outflow from operating activities is attributable mainly to the movement in inventories, which increased by €170 million, and a €14 million increase in trade and other payables, and the €8.6 million decrease in trade and other receivables.
Meanwhile, the company's capital expenditure outlay amounted to €13 million.
The inflow from financing activities reflects a net inflow of €114 million as a result of new issuance net of repayments under the commercial paper programme and an inflow of €89 million following the full drawdown of the corporate loan. This heading also reflects the buyback of own shares for €33 million and the sale of all of the own shares that had been purchased under the liquidity agreement following its cancellation for €3 million.

At 31 December 2019, the company's gross borrowings stood at €312 million, made up primarily of €79.3 million of bank loans (secured by mortgages, corresponding €38.3 million to completed product pending delivery) used to finance developments under construction and €230 million of corporate loans, mostly obtained from the parent's syndicated loan and the issuance of commercial paper.
The limit on the borrowings arranged by the company stands at €868 million, €638 million of which consists of developer loans.
As a result, the company's net debt stood at €214 million at the December close, up 124% from year-end 2018.
The snapshot of AEDAS Homes' borrowings reveals a diversified mix of sources of financing and lenders, so that its financial risk is not concentrated.
At year-end 2019, the company's average borrowing cost stood at 2.90%; the average cost of its developer loans was 2.10%. If it were to draw down the entire limit, the borrowing cost would be 2.36%.
The 98% increase in borrowings from year-end is attributable to the acceleration in business volumes as the company ramps up its operations. Despite the increase, and reflecting the low level of drawdown, the company's LTV and LTC ratios stood at 11% and 17%, respectively, as of 31 December 2019.

The company presents certain alternative performance measures (APMs) in order to provide additional information designed to enhance the comparability and comprehension of its financial information, while also facilitating its ability to take decisions and monitor its performance. Financial information users should treat the APMs as complementary to the measures presented for accounting purposes.
The most significant APMs are the following:
Definition: Revenue from sales – Change in inventories – Cost of sales (without factoring in provisions for the impairment of inventories).
Rationale for usage: the parent company's directors use the Gross Development Margin to measure its performance as this yardstick provides information about how its development projects are performing by starting from third-party sales and subtracting the costs incurred to make such sales. Calculation of this APM factors in the impairment charges applied to real estate assets sold during the reporting period. Note that the Gross Development Margin does not include any gains realised on the sale of land.
Definition: Revenue from sales – Change in inventories – Cost of sales (without factoring in provisions for the impairment of inventories).
Rationale for usage: used in the company's financial statements, differs from Gross Development Margin by taking into account sales of land.
Definition: Gross Development Margin – Sales & marketing expenses.
Rationale for its usage: the Net Development Margin is used by the parent company's directors as a yardstick for its performance as it provides information about the net margin generated on the developments that generated sales revenue during the reporting period. The Net Development Margin is calculated based on the Gross Development Margin, net of certain expenses associated with the marketing. Note that the Net Development Margin does not include any gains realized on the sale of land.
Definition: Gross Development Margin – Sales & marketing expenses (included within Other operating expenses in the statement of profit or loss).
Rationale for its usage: used in the company's financial statement, differs from Net Devolpment Margin by taking into account sales of land.
Definition: Net Development Margin – Impairment of inventories + Revenue from services + Other operating income – Employee benefits expense – Other operating expenses other than sales & marketing expenses.
Rationale for usage: the parent company's directors use EBITDA to measure its performance as it provides information for analysing profitability (before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) by approximating the operating flows that generate cash. It is also a measure that is widely used by the investment community in appraising companies' performance; it is further used by the rating agencies and creditor community to evaluate leverage and interest coverage by comparing EBITDA with an entity's net debt and debt service obligations.
Definition: EBITDA + Inventory impairment
Rationale for usage: the parent company's directors use Adjusted EBITDA to measure its performance as it provides information for analysing profitability net of inventory impairment charges, which do not represent cash flows.
Definition: Loans and other financial liabilities – the Shareholder Master Credit Facility Agreement.
Rationale for usage: Loans is a measure used by the parent's directors to track its performance as it measures the company's net financial position and is necessary to calculate the leverage ratios typically used in the market.
Definition: Loans – Deferred payments due on the acquisition of inventories – Cash and cash equivalents (excluding the sum that is restricted in respect of down payments on developments, which must be deposited in a special account and may only be used to service expenses derived from construction of the developments) and the cash pledged to cover debt service obligations under mortgages.
Rationale for usage: Net Debt measures an enterprise's net financial position. It is also a metric that is widely used by investors to analyse companies' net leverage and by rating agencies and creditors to assess net debt.
Rationale for usage: Leverage provides a measure of the company's indebtedness. It is widely used by investors to analyse real estate companies' leverage and by rating agencies and creditors to assess their net debt.
Definition: Adjusted EBITDA / (the sum of the average balances of Equity and Net Debt between 31 December 2017 and 31 December 2018)
Rationale for usage: ROCE is used by the parent company's directors as it measures an enterprise's profitability by factoring in a matter of particular importance, namely the efficiency with which capital is employed. It is widely used by investors to assess companies' real profitability.
Definition: Net Debt/(Cash) / (Market value of appraised assets (GAV) + Sale options over inventories)
Rationale for usage: LTV provides a measure of the company's indebtedness relative to the market value of its properties. It is widely used by investors to analyse real estate companies' leverage and by rating agencies and creditors to assess their net debt.
Definition: Net Debt/(Cash) / (Inventories - Prepayments to suppliers)
Rationale for usage: LTC provides a measure of the company's indebtedness. It is widely used by investors to analyse real estate companies' leverage and by rating agencies and creditors to assess their net debt.
The value of the company's assets, and, by extension, its GAV, is calculated by an independent appraiser, specifically Savills. That appraiser uses the RICS methodology to calculate the market value of properties. The RICS defines market value as the estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm's length transaction after proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.
The market value of the company's equity or net worth, i.e., the total value of its assets minus the total value of its liabilities.
A measure of what the company's assets are expected to be worth on the open market once all development works have been completed.
AEDAS Homes has an enterprise risk management system that is regulated by the Risk Control and Management Policy approved by the Board of Directors in September 2017.
Over the course of 2019, the company continued to make progress on implementing that policy.
The purpose of the risk management policy is to identify, evaluate, manage and report any risks that could jeopardise delivery of AEDAS Homes' business objectives.
AEDAS Homes' risk management model groups the various risks to which it is exposed into four different categories:
In keeping with AEDAS Homes' business model, each of the four above major risk categories is sub-divided into the following risk factors:
Having duly identified the risks itemised above, the members of the Management Committee proceeded to assess the various risks with the aim of identifying those which pose a greater threat to the company, filtering them using the following variables:
As a result of the above evaluation exercise, the members of the Management Committee singled out the following risks for management:
In addition, it has decided to include the following corporate risk factors in the risk management model in 2020:
A monitoring system has been established for the risks under management based on the following elements:
toring purposes
In 2019, the company devised action and monitoring plans for the indicators that surpassed the defined thresholds.
Note 22 of the company's 2019 consolidated financial statements provides a detailed description of the main business and financial risks to which Aedas Homes is exposed.
Article 2 of AEDAS Homes' Bylaws states that the company's core object is to acquire, permit, manage, market and develop properties of any kind for holding, use, management, sale or lease.
The company conducts its business across five regional branches: Catalonia (Barcelona, Tarragona, Zaragoza and Navarre); the Central region (Madrid, Valladolid and Vigo); Andalusia (Seville and Granada); Costa del Sol (Malaga); and the Eastern region (Valencia, Alicante and Mallorca. At the December close it had a total of 217 employees.
The general meeting is the company's highest decision-making and control body in respect of the matters within the shareholders' purview and it is the vehicle around which the shareholders' right to intervene in the company's decision-making is articulated.
The Board of Directors has authority over any and all matters that are not specifically vested in the shareholders in general meeting by the Bylaws or prevailing company law. The Board of Directors, which is vested with the broadest powers to manage, direct, administer and represent the company, generally delegates the company's everyday management in the board's steering committees and the management team, establishing the content of, limits to and modus operandi for such delegation of powers, so that it can concentrate on its general supervisory duty as well as attending to matters of particular significance to the company.
The Board of Directors is made up of nine members. Six are independent directors, two are proprietary and the ninth is executive. It is regulated by the Board Regulations, the purpose of which is to set the guidelines governing the actions of the Board of Directors, the basic rules governing how it is organised and run, the rules of conduct its members must abide by and the directors' duties. The Board Regulations were approved by the Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors has set up the following board committees:
The Audit and Control Committee, made up of three directors, two of whom independent (one of whom chairs this committee) and the third, proprietary. Article 14 of the Board Regulations regulates the Audit and Control Committee, its composition, its powers and its modus operandi.
The Appointments and Remuneration Committee, made up of three directors, two of whom are independent (one of whom chairs this committee) and the third, proprietary. Article 15 of the Board Regulations regulates the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, its composition, its powers and its modus operandi.
The Technology Committee, made up of three directors, one of whom (the committee chairperson) is independent, one proprietary, and one executive. Another two company executives also sit on this committee. There are specific regulations addressing the composition, powers and rules of operation of the Technology Committee.
In addition, the company has a Management Committee, a Business Committee and an Investment Committee made up of AEDAS Homes executives. Each is governed by its own set of rules that are approved by the company's CEO and address their make-up, powers and rules of operation.
There is also a Compliance Committee made up of the heads of the Corporate Resources, Legal and Risk Departments whose composition, powers and rules of operation are set down in the board-approved Compliance Policy and Manual. Lastly, there is an Internal Control Body which oversees anti-money laundering and counter terrorism financing (AML/CTF) matters whose composition, powers and rules of operation are set down in the AML/CTF Manual approved by the Internal Control Body itself.

The accompanying notes 1 to 20 are an integral part of the statements of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Aedas Homes, S.A. (hereinafter, the Company) was incorporated as an open-ended sole-shareholder company on June 9, 2016 before Madrid notary public Mr. Carlos Entrena Palomero (protocol deed entry no. 955) under the name of SPV Spain 19, S.L.U. Its registered office is located in Madrid, on Paseo de la Castellana 42, postal code 28046.
The Company was incorporated as a result of the subscription and payment by Structured Finance Management (Spain), S.L. of 3,000 indivisible shares, numbered sequentially, with a unit par value of 1 euro. They were paid for in cash. In 2016, a letter of intent was signed between the then Sole Shareholder and the company domiciled in Luxembourg called Hipoteca 43 Lux, S.A.R.L. for the sale of 100% of the shares held by the former in SPV Spain 19, S.L. The sale of those shares closed on July 5, 2016.
The Company's name was changed to Aedas Homes Group, S.L.U. on July 18, 2016 (as witnessed by notary public Carlos Entrena Palomero, protocol entry no. 1228). The current name was taken in the wake of the corporate restructuring exercise.
On September 12, 2017, the Company's legal form of incorporation was changed to that of a public limited company (sociedad anónima) so that it took the name of AEDAS HOMES, S.A.
The Company's corporate object, pursuant to article 2 of its bylaws, is the following:
The above-mentioned activities may be performed by the Company either directly or indirectly, as well as through ownership interests in other companies with an identical or similar corporate purpose. The Company's corporate object specifically excludes those activities reserved by law to certain types of companies and those requiring a permit or license the Company does not have.
At December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company is the parent of a group of companies (the Group). A list of the Company's subsidiaries is provided in Appendix I of these 2019 financial statements. Aedas Homes, S.A. and the subsidiaries itemized in Appendix I have drawn up consolidated financial statements, applying the International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by the European Union (IFRS-EU), authorizing their issuance on February 25, 2020.
Given the activities performed by the Company, it has no environmental liabilities, expenses, assets, provisions or contingencies that could be material in respect of its equity, financial position or performance. Therefore, no specific disclosures relating to environmental issues are included in these notes to the financial statements.
During the months of March, June and August 2017, the Company's Majority Shareholder contributed, in a series of transactions, its Spanish real estate development business to AEDAS HOMES, S.A. (Note 5). The amounts at which the businesses were contributed differed from the amounts at which the former Sole Shareholder was carrying those businesses in its books. As a result, as per consultation 3 of the official journal of the ICAC (acronym in Spanish for the Spanish Institute of Accountants and Auditors) (# 85) and Recognition and Measurement Standard 21 of the General Accounting Plan (as per the wording introduced by means of Royal Decree 1159/2010, of September 17, 2010, in effect for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010), the difference arising between the amounts at which the contribution was carried out and the amounts at which the related assets were carried in the former Sole Shareholder's accounting records was recognized against "Voluntary reserves" (Note 10.c). The carrying amounts that gave rise to the abovementioned difference, as required pursuant to consultations 3 and 17 of the official journal of the ICAC (# 85), related to the separate amounts corresponding to the Transferee, Hipoteca 43 Lux, S.A.R.L. (parent - former Sole Shareholder) as it had been exempt from issuing consolidated annual financial statements.
Below is a summary of the difference between the amounts at which the businesses were contributed and the amounts that were used by the Company for accounting purposes:
| Euros | |||||||

| Amounts contributed | Carrying amount | Impact on voluntary reserves (note 10) |

| Total | 447,769,245 | 136,838,419 | 310,930,826 |
The Business Contribution that took place during financial year 2017 was covered by the special tax neutrality regime for mergers, divisions, transfers of assets, exchanges of shares and changes of the registered address of a European company or a European cooperative society from one European Union member state to another provided for in Chapter VII of Title VII of Spain's Corporate Income Tax Act (Legislative-Royal Decree 4/2014, of November 27, 2014). In compliance with the information requirements established in the aforementioned Act, the detail of the operation is included in the Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2017.
On April 2, 2018, by virtue of resolutions ratified by Aedas Homes, S.A. in its capacity as sole shareholder of SPV Reoco 1, S.L.U., it was agreed to merge SPV Reoco 1, S.L.U. ("Transferee") and 41 of its subsidiaries (ESPEBE 2, S.L.U., ESPEBE 4, S.L.U., ESPEBE 7, S.L.U., ESPEBE 12, S.L.U., ESPEBE 14, S.L.U., ESPEBE 15, S.L.U., ESPEBE 16, S.L.U., ESPEBE 17, S.L.U., ESPEBE 20, S.L.U., ESPEBE 21, S.L.U., ESPEBE 22, S.L.U., ESPEBE 23, S.L.U., ESPEBE 25, S.L.U., ESPEBE 26, S.L.U., ESPEBE 27, S.L.U., ESPEBE 28, S.L.U., ESPEBE 29, S.L.U., ESPEBE 31, S.L.U., ESPEBE 32, S.L.U., ESPEBE 34, S.L.U., ESPEBE 35, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 2, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 5, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 6, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 12, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 14, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 17, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 18, S.L.U., SPV REOCO 26, S.L.U., SPV SPAIN PROJECT 1, S.L.U., SPV SPAIN 7, S.L.U., SPV SPAIN 16, S.L.U., SPV SPAIN 17, S.L.U., CORNETALA SERVICIOS Y GESTIONES, S.L.U., DANTA INVESTMENTS, S.L.U., DELANETO SERVICIOS Y GESTIONES, S.L.U., DESARROLLO EMPRESARIAL LICANCABUR, S.L.U., EPAVENA PROMOCIONES Y SERVICIOS, S.L.U., LANDATA SERVICIOS Y GESTIONES, S.L.U., MILEN INVESTMENTS, S.L.U. and SERVICIOS INMOBILIARIOS CLEGANE, S.L.U., (the "Transferors").
The merger by absorption implied: (i) the dissolution and extinction of the Transferors; (ii) the en bloc transfer of all the latter companies' assets and liabilities to the Transferee, which has acquired all of their rights and obligations by universal succession. The merger deeds were publicly notarized on May 4, 2018 and registered with the Madrid Companies Register.
With regard to the economic rationale for the merger, the aim of restructuring the group of companies was to simplify its structure and administrative management in order to save operating costs. The merger therefore helped to simplify and speed up corporate decision-making.
The restructuring operation described above is covered by the special tax neutrality regime for mergers, divisions, transfers of assets, exchanges of shares and changes of the registered address of a European company or a European cooperative society from one European Union member state to another provided for in Chapter VII of Title VII of Spain's Corporate Income Tax Act (Legislative-Royal Decree 4/2014, of November 27, 2014). The detail of the balances of on the merger carried out in 2018 is included in the Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Item 4 of article 4 of Royal Decree 1159/2010 (of September 17, 2010), enacting the rules for the issuance of consolidated annual financial statements and amending the General Accounting Plan enacted by Royal Decree 1514/2007 (of November 16, 2007) and the General Accounting Plan for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises enacted by Royal Decree 1515/2007 (of November 16, 2007) stipulates that when group companies are merged or spun off, the date of the transaction for accounting purposes is that of the start of the year in which the transaction is approved provided that such date is subsequent to the date on which the companies in question became part of the group. This regulation has been applied by the Company in the corresponding mergers.
The accompanying financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 were authorized for issue by the directors in keeping with the financial reporting regulatory framework applicable to Company, namely:
The accompanying financial statements were prepared by the Company's Directors in accordance with current accounting legislation to give a true and fair view of its equity, financial position and performance. The statement of cash flows has been prepared to provide an accurate picture of the origin and usage of the Company's monetary assets such as cash and cash equivalents.
The accompanying financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 are presented in euros, which is the Company's functional and presentation currency.
The Company has not applied any non-mandatory accounting policies. Further, the Company's directors have drawn up the accompanying financial statements for year ended December 31, 2019 in accordance with all mandatory accounting principles and rules which have a material impact thereon. All mandatory accounting policies were applied.
In preparing the accompanying financial statements, the Company's management used estimates to measure certain of the assets, liabilities, income and expenses recognized and to provide the breakdown of contingent liabilities. These estimates were made on the basis of the best available information at year-end. However, the uncertainty inherent in these estimates means that future events could oblige the directors to modify these estimates in the next financial year, prospectively if warranted. These estimates basically refer to:
• Assessment of the potential impairment of the Company's financial investments in Group companies and the accounts receivable from Group companies (Note 4.5).
• The probability of obtaining future taxable income when recognizing deferred tax assets (Note 4.8).
In addition to other relevant information regarding the estimation of uncertainty at the reporting date, the key assumptions regarding the future that imply a considerable risk that the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities may require material adjustment in the next financial year, are as follows:
Measurement of investments in Group companies requires estimations to determine their recoverable value to assess whether they are impaired. Unless better evidence is available, the recoverable amount is estimated on the basis of the equity of the investee, adjusted by any unrealized capital gains existing on the measurement date implicit in the appraisal of the real estate assets belonging to the Company's investees (Note 4.5).
The recoverable amount of the real estate properties held by the Group companies is estimated on the basis of appraisals performed by independent experts unrelated to the Group. Those appraisals calculate fair value primarily using the discounted cash flow method or the dynamic residual method for the properties owned by its investees, in keeping with the Valuation and Appraisal Standards published by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) of Great Britain, and the International Valuation Standards (IVS) published by the International Valuation Standards Committee (IVSC).
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax loss carryforwards and unused tax credits for which it is probable that future taxable profit of the Company and the tax group will be available against which these assets may be utilized. The directors have to make significant estimates to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, taking into consideration the amounts and dates on which future taxable profits will be obtained and the reversion period of taxable temporary differences. At year-end 2019, the Company has recognized deferred tax assets amounting to 847,000 euros (1,472,891 euros at December 31, 2018) corresponding to deductible temporary differences and certain of its unused tax losses (Note 13).
As required under Spanish company law, to facilitate the reader's comparative analysis, the Group discloses, in addition to the figures for December 31, 2019, those corresponding to December 31, 2018 for each of the items presented in the balance sheet and those corresponding to the years 2019 and 2018 for each of the items presented in the income statement, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows. The items of both years are comparable and homogeneous.
A summary of the significant accounting policies applied is provided in Note 4.
Certain of the items presented on the balance sheet, income statement, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows are aggregated to facilitate reader comprehension. However, to the extent that the effect of so doing is significant, these items are disclosed separately in the accompanying notes.
The directors propose the following distribution of the result for the 2019 financial year, a proposal expected to be ratified by the General Shareholders' Meeting:
| Euros | |
|---|---|
| Basis of distribution | |
| Profit/(loss) for the year | 15,027,995 |
| TOTAL | 15,027,995 |
| Distribution to: | |
| Allocation to legal reserves | 1,502,799 |
| Offsetting tax loss carryforwards | 13,115,628 |
| Capitalization reserve | 409,568 |
| TOTAL | 15,027,995 |
Under the provisions of the Spanish Corporate Enterprise Act (article 273), dividends may only be distributed from the profits for the financial year or freely available reserves after meeting the requirements established in the law and by-laws, and if the value of the corporate equity is not, or as result of such distribution would not be, less than the company's capital. For these purposes, any profit directly allocated to total equity may not be distributed either directly or indirectly. In the event of losses in preceding years that reduce corporate equity to less than the company's capital, profits shall be used to offset such losses.
The main recognition and measurement rules used by the Company to draw up the accompanying financial statements in accordance with current accounting principles are the following:
Intangible assets are initially measured at either acquisition or production cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value on the date of acquisition.
Following initial measurement, they are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment losses.
Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and residual values. Amortization methods and periods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, and adjusted prospectively where applicable. Intangible assets are tested for impairment at least at each financial year-end and any impairment is recognized.
'Software' includes the costs incurred by the Company to acquire software from third parties. These expenses are amortized on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the asset (five years).
Expenses for repairs that do not extend the useful life of the assets, as well as maintenance expenses, are taken to the income statement in the year incurred.
Items of property, plant and equipment are initially recognized at either acquisition or production cost. The cost of property, plant and equipment acquired in a business combination is the fair value of the assets at the acquisition date.
Following initial recognition, they are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses.
Expenses for repairs that do not extend the useful life of the assets, as well as maintenance expenses, are taken to the income statement in the year incurred. Expenses incurred to upgrade, expand or improve these assets that increase their productivity or extend their useful life are capitalized as an increase in the carrying amount of the item, while the carrying amount of any assets replaced is derecognized.
Once available for use, items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.
The annual depreciation charges are made with a balancing entry in the income statement as a function of the assets' estimated useful lives. The average estimated useful lives of the items comprising property, plant and equipment are shown below:
| Annual depreciation rate |
|
|---|---|
| Straight-line depreciation charge: | |
| Buildings | 14% |
| Other plant | 20% |
| Furniture & fittings | 10% |
| Computer equipment | 25% |
| Other items of PP&E | 20% |
The Company assesses whether there is any indication that a non-current asset or cash-generating unit may be impaired at least at each reporting date. If there is, it proceeds to estimate the asset's recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount is the fair value less costs to sell or value in use, whichever is higher. When the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired. Value in use is the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted using risk-free market rates, adjusted for the risks specific to the asset. For those assets that do not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of the inflows of other assets or groups of assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating units to which the assets belong, such cash-generating units being understood to mean the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the inflows of other assets or groups of assets.
Impairment losses and any subsequent reversals are recognized in the income statement. Impairment losses are reversed only if the circumstances giving rise to them have ceased to exist. Goodwill impairment losses are not reversed. Any such reversal is limited to the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset.
Leases are classified as finance leases when, based on the economic terms of the arrangement, substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased item are transferred to the lessee. All other lease arrangements are classified as operating leases.
Operating lease payments are expensed in the income statement as they accrue.
Financial assets
The Company's financial assets are classified into the following categories:
Financial assets are initially recognized at the fair value of the consideration delivered plus directly attributable transaction costs.
In the case of equity investments in Group companies that give control over the subsidiary, the fees paid to legal advisors and other professionals in connection with the acquisition are recognized directly in the income statement.
In the case of capital increases carried out by offsetting credits, pursuant to ruling 4 of the official journal of the ICAC (# 89), the lending company must reclassify financial investments at the fair value of the credit granted, recognising on the income statement any difference between its amortised cost on the date of the capital increase and its market value.
Loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost.
Investments in Group companies, associates and jointly-controlled entities are measured at cost less any impairment loss. Impairment loss is calculated as the difference between the investment's carrying amount and recoverable amount, deemed to be the higher of fair value less costs to sell and the present value in use of the projected cash flows from the investment. Unless better evidence is available, the recoverable amount is estimated on the basis of the equity of the investee, adjusted by any unrealized capital gains existing on the measurement date (including any goodwill) implicit in the appraisal of the real estate assets belonging to the Company's investees (Note 5).
The recoverable amount of the real estate properties held by the Group companies is estimated on the basis of appraisals performed by independent experts unrelated to the Group. Those appraisals calculate fair value primarily using the discounted cash flow method or the dynamic residual method for the properties owned by its investees, in keeping with the Valuation and Appraisal Standards published by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) of Great Britain, and the International Valuation Standards (IVS) published by the International Valuation Standards Committee (IVSC).
The Company holds majority interests in certain companies. The accompanying financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 are the Company's separate financial statements and are not presented on a consolidated basis with those of the entities in which it has a majority interest.
The Company tests its financial investments in Group companies for impairment at least at each year-end. If the recoverable amount of a financial asset is lower than its carrying amount this is deemed objective evidence of impairment and the corresponding impairment loss is recognized on the income statement.
Financial liabilities are (i) trade and other accounts payable by the Company originating from the purchase of goods and services in the ordinary course of business and (ii) other liabilities that are not commercial in origin and cannot be considered derivatives.
Financial liabilities are initially recognized at the fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortized cost.
In keeping with applicable accounting principles, the following are classified as current liabilities: obligations that fall due or will be extinguished within 12 months of the reporting date and those related with the normal operating cycle, including those the Company expects to settle in the course of that cycle regardless of their maturity. The "normal operating cycle" is the period of time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash or cash equivalents. In the specific instance of the Company's business, it is therefore understood that all of the liabilities assumed to acquire or finance its inventories have to be recognized as current liabilities.
The Company derecognizes its financial liabilities when the related obligation is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Loans received from related parties are recognized as financial liabilities at amortized cost so long as the contractual terms of the loans enable the reliable estimation of the cash flows of the financial instrument, to which end the Company calculates their fair value at the time they are granted using a market interest rate for a loan with similar characteristics; subsequent to initial recognition, the interest expense is accrued using the effective interest rate method.
Derivatives are recognized at their fair value and changes in said fair value are taken to the income statement.
Own shares acquired by the Parent during the year are recognized at the amount of the consideration given in exchange and are presented as a deduction from equity. The gains and losses resulting from the purchase, sale, issuance or cancellation of own equity instruments are recognized directly in equity and are not reclassified to profit or loss under any circumstances.
The Company recognizes cash, demand deposits and other highly liquid short-term investments that can be monetized within three months of their acquisition, are not subject to a risk of changes in value and are part of the Company's standard cash management strategy within "Cash and cash equivalents" on the short-form balance sheet.
For cash flow statement purposes, occasional bank overdrafts used as part of the Company's cash management strategy are recognized as a decrease in cash and cash equivalents.
In drawing up its annual financial statements, the Company's directors distinguish between:
The financial statements recognize all provisions in respect of which it is considered more likely than not that a present obligation exists. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements, but are disclosed in the accompanying notes, unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is considered remote.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle or transfer the present obligation based on information available concerning the obligating event and its consequences; changes in the provision's carrying amount arising from discounting are recognized as finance cost as accrued.
The compensation to be received from a third party when an obligation is settled is recognized as a separate asset so long as it is virtually certain that the reimbursement will be received, unless the risk has been contractually externalized so that the Company is legally exempt from having to settle, in which case the reimbursement is taken into consideration in estimating the amount of the provision, if any.
There were no contingent liabilities or assets at either December 31, 2019 or December 31, 2018.
Tax expense (tax income) comprises current tax expense (current tax income) and deferred tax expense (deferred tax income).
Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable (recoverable) by the Company in respect of the taxable profit (tax loss) for the year. In addition to withholdings and payments on account, current tax is reduced by the application of unused tax credits and unused tax losses.
Deferred tax expense or income corresponds to the recognition and derecognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. These include taxable and deductible temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the statement of financial position and its tax base, and the carryforward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except to the extent that they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill or the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction affect neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.
Deferred tax assets are only recognized when the Company considers it probable that future taxable profit will be available against which these assets may be utilized within the foreseeable future, even if the legally-stipulated time limit for utilizing them is longer.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities relating to transactions charged or credited directly to equity are also recognized in equity.
At each year-end, management reassesses the deferred tax assets recognized and their carrying amount is reduced if there are any doubts about their recoverability. Similarly, at the end of each reporting period, management reassesses unrecognized deferred tax assets, recognizing a previously unrecognized deferred tax asset to the extent that it has become probable that taxable profit will be available against which the asset can be utilized.
At December 27, 2017, the Board of Directors resolved to opt for the consolidated tax regime (provided for in article 55 et seq. of the Spanish Corporate Income Tax - Law 27/2014) in 2018 and thereafter, Aedas Homes, S.A. being the parent of the tax group.
The following assets are classified as current assets: assets associated with the normal operating cycle (which is generally considered one year); other assets that are expected to mature, be sold or realized within twelve months of the reporting date; financial assets held for trading other than financial derivatives due for settlement more than 12 months from the reporting date; and cash and cash equivalents. Any assets that do not meet these criteria are classified as non-current assets.
Likewise, the following liabilities are classified as current liabilities: those related with the normal operating cycle; financial liabilities held for trading other than financial derivatives due for settlement more than 12 months from the reporting date; and, in general, all liabilities that fall due or will be extinguished within 12 months of the reporting date. All other liabilities are presented as non-current.
Income and expenses are recognized on an accrual basis, i.e., when earned or incurred, respectively, regardless of when actual collection or payment occurs. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, less discounts and taxes.
Revenue from the rendering of services is recognized by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the reporting date, whenever the outcome of the transaction can be estimated reliably.
Income from interest on financial assets is recognized using the effective interest rate method; dividends are recognized when the shareholder's right to receive them is established. Interest and dividend income accrued on financial assets after their date of acquisition is recognized as revenue in the income statement.
The Company's functional currency is the euro. As a result, transactions denominated in currencies other than the euro are considered foreign currency transactions and are recognized at the exchange rate prevailing on the transaction date.
At year-end, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the spot rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Any resulting gains or losses are recognized directly in profit or loss in the year incurred.
The Company did not transact in foreign currency during the year ended December 31, 2019; nor did it have any resulting foreign currency balances at the reporting date (nor in the prior year), that are significant.
The Group companies must account for the business combinations to which they are party. Business combinations are transactions in which an entity acquires control of one or more businesses.
In business combinations involving either the merger or division of several companies, or the acquisition of all of the assets and liabilities of a company or a part of a company constituting one or more businesses, the acquisition method outlined in item 2 of measurement standard 19 of the General Accounting Plan is applied. This method stipulates that the acquirer recognize, at the acquisition date, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business combination at their fair values, additionally recognizing any difference between the value of said assets and liabilities and the cost of the business combination. That difference is calculated as the sum of: i) the acquisition-date fair values of the assets received, liabilities incurred or assumed and the equity instruments issued in exchange for the business or businesses acquired; ii) the fair value of any additional consideration that depends on future events or delivery of certain conditions, provided that it is deemed probable that such contingent consideration will become payable; and iii) any costs directly attributable to the combination, such as fees paid to legal advisors or other professional involved in the transaction.
Elsewhere, transactions involving mergers, divisions or non-monetary business contributions between group companies, as defined in the standard governing the measurement of intra-group transactions, are accounted for in accordance with that standard. Specifically, in transactions between group companies involving the parent, either directly or indirectly, the assets and liabilities constituting the business acquired are measured at the amount at which they would be recorded, pro forma for the transaction, in the consolidated annual financial statements of the group in accordance with the rules for drawing up such statements stipulated in Spain's Code of Commerce. In the case of transactions between other group companies, the assets and liabilities of the business are measured at the amounts at which they were carried in the separate annual financial statements prior to the transaction. Any difference arising from application of the above criteria is recognized within one of the Company's reserve headings.
In business combinations involving the acquisition of the shares of a company, including those received by virtue of a non-monetary contribution upon the incorporation of the company or subsequently in the course of a rights issue, or other transactions or developments the result of which is that a company obtains control over another company, whether or not it already held an equity interest in that company, the investing company must account for the investment in the equity of other group companies in its separate annual financial statements in accordance with the rules established in section 2.5 of the General Accounting Plan measurement standard addressing financial instruments.
The remuneration earned by the Company's key management personnel (refer to Note 17) is recognized on an accrual basis such that the Company recognizes the corresponding provision at each reporting date in respect of any amounts that have not yet been paid.
Environmental assets are long-lived assets used in the ordinary course of the Company's business whose ultimate purpose is to minimize the Company's environmental impact and to improve its environmental record and include assets designed to reduce or eliminate future contamination.
Given the activities performed by the Company, it has no environmental liabilities, expenses, assets, provisions or contingencies that could be material in respect of its equity, financial position or performance. Environmental disclosures are accordingly not provided in these annual financial statements.
The Company carries out all transactions with related parties (whether financial, commercial or other in nature) at transfer prices that meet the OECD's rules governing transactions with Group companies and associates. The Company has duly met its documentation requirements in respect of these transfer prices so that its directors believe there is no significant risk of related liabilities of material amount. Nevertheless, the accompanying financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, should be interpreted in the context of the Group to which the Company belongs (Note 1).
In the event of a significant difference between the price so established and the fair value of a transaction between related parties, the difference would be considered a distribution of profits or contribution of funds between the Company and the related party in question and as such would be recognized with a charge or credit to a reserves account, as warranted.
Related-party transactions are governed by Measurement Standard No. 13 of Spain's General Accounting Plan. Specifically:
The Company conducts all related-party transactions on an arm's length basis.
In preparing the accompanying income statement, the directors of Aedas Homes, S.A., whose business activities include those of a holding company (Note 1), have considered the response provided by Spanish Institute of Auditors (ICJCE for its acronym in Spanish) to the consultation published in the official journal of the ICAC (# 79, November 2009) regarding how to account for the revenue and expenses of a holding company in separate financial statements and how to determine revenue for this class of entity.
As outlined in the above consultation, all of the revenue obtained by a company as a result of its 'financial' activity, insofar as that activity is considered 'ordinary', must be included within "Revenue". As a result, in keeping with the foregoing, both the dividends and any gains obtained from the sale of shares, their derecognition or a change in their fair values are deemed part of "Revenue".
Below is an explanation of the headings that have accordingly been included within "Revenue":
In addition, any impairment losses on financial instruments and any losses realized on the sale of such instruments, other than those deriving from the derecognition of investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities or associates, are included within the Company's operating profit or loss.
The gains or losses deriving from the disposal of financial instruments that do constitute investments in subsidiaries and associates are included within operating profit or loss.
Under prevailing company law, the Company is obliged to pay severance to employees who are discontinued under certain circumstances. Redundancy payments that can be reasonably estimated are recognized as an expense in the year in which the Company creates a valid expectation on the part of those affected by the redundancy decision.
The Company recognizes, on the one hand, the goods and services received either as an asset or expense, depending on their nature, at the time they are received and, on the other, the corresponding increase in equity, if the transaction is settled using equity instruments, or the corresponding liability, if it is settled in an amount that is based on the value of the equity instruments.
In the case of equity-settled share-based transactions, both the services provided to the Group companies and the related increase in equity are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted with reference to the date of their grant. If, on the other hand, they are settled in cash, the goods and services received and the corresponding liability are recognized at the fair value of the latter, with reference to the date on which the vesting conditions are met.

These annual statements are issued in accordance with local regulations. The Company carries out various transactions with its subsidiaries and associates, as itemized in this Note and in Note 16.
The corporate object of SPV Reoco 1, S.L.U. is the acquisition, development and refurbishment of real estate assets and the acquisition, holding, sale and administration of marketable securities and any titles or rights that give it an equity interest in other companies, all of which as principal and not agent.
This company was not publicly listed at December 31, 2019 and 2018.

Specifically, the valuation of the inventories carried out by Savills Aguirre Newman Valoraciones y Tasaciones, S.A.U., reflects a Gross Asset Value amounting to 683 million euros, which implies a capital gain of 1,962 million euros at year-end 2019 (at the end of the previous year, the valuation of inventories at said date was 1,768 million euros, implying a capital gain of 704 million euros).

There were no movements of the share premium during financial years 2019 and 2018, amounting to 500,076,721 euros at 31 December 2019 and 2018.
The balance of the share premium account can be freely distributed.
In accordance with article 274 of the consolidated text of the Spanish Corporate Enterprises Act, 10% of profits must be earmarked to endowment of the legal reserve each year until it represents at least 20% of share capital.
The legal reserve may be used to increase capital in an amount equal to the portion of the balance that exceeds 10% of capital after the increase.
Except for this purpose, until the legal reserve exceeds the limit of 20% of capital, it can only be used to offset losses, if there are no other reserves available.
This legal reserve was not fully endowed at the end of either financial year, its value being 1,606,731 euros at 31 December 2019.
The voluntary reserve came about as a result of the difference between the fair value at which the real estate development business was contributed and the amounts at which that business was carried in the then Sole Shareholder's financial statements (Note 1.a). The movement recorded during the financial year 2019 and 2018 corresponds to the result of purchases and sales of its own shares, as shown in the following f) section.
As stated in the Spanish Corporate Enterprise Act (article 273), dividends may only be drawn on the year´s profits or freely available reserves after meeting the requirements laid down by law and in the by-laws, and if the value of the corporate equity is nor, or as result of such distribution would not be, less than the company´s capital. For these purposes, any profit directly allocated to total equity may not be distributed either directly or indirectly. In the event of losses in preceding years that reduce corporate equity to less than the company´s capital, profits shall be used to offset such losses.
No dividends were paid out in 2019 and 2018. However, there are no restrictions on the payment of dividends at December 31, 2019, other than those provided for by the commercial legislation.
The Company arranged a liquidity agreement with BANCO DE SABADELL, S.A. (the "Financial Broker") on March 28, 2018 with the sole object of fostering the frequency and regularity with which the Company's shares are traded, within the limits established at the Company's Annual General Meeting and, specifically, CNMV Circular 1/2017 on liquidity agreements.
The term of the contract was 12 months from its date of effectiveness, which is April 5, 2018.
On 28 December 2018 the Company put on hold the liquidity agreement as a result of having exceeding the limit of Funds as established in Circular 1/2017, of 26 April of the Spanish National Securities Market Commission (CNMV), on liquidity contracts, resuming it on January 24, 2019 once the adjustments to place the contract within the limit of resources with adjusted balances had been made, as stated in Circular 1/2017 on liquidity agreements. However, with effect from March 20, 2019, the Company terminated the liquidity agreement, as its objectives had been achieved. During this period, 94,178 shares were purchased at an average price of € 22.7610 / per share and 92,784 shares were sold at an average price of € 22,9339 / per share, leaving a remaining balance of 28,031 shares that were sold as a block trade on 29 March at a price of € 22.80 / per share.
The Board of Directors of the Company, in the meeting held on 25 July 2019, agreed to buy back shares, initially in the form of a discretionary program. Subsequently, in the meeting held on 25 September 2019, resolved to purchase Company shares (Buy-Back Program) for a maximum net investment of 50,000,000 euros and until reaching 2,500,000 shares in treasury stock. Said Buy Back Program will remain in effect for a maximum period of 36 months and will be implemented by JB Capital Markets, S.V., S.A.U.
Within the framework of operations with Company own shares (discretionary management, Buy-Back Program and block trades), which began on August 7, 2019, a total of 1,485,057 shares were purchased up to December 31, 2019, at an average price of 20.6079 euros, no sales being made in this period.
During the financial year 2018, it purchased 369,699 shares at an average price of 28.43 euros per share and sold 323,533 at an average price of 27.60 euros per share.
The Company did not receive any new owner contributions during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
At December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company's Majority Shareholder had contributed a total of 740.1 million euros, 623.4 million euros of which corresponded to the credit claim contributed on October 3, 2017.
On September 26, 2017, the Majority Shareholder approved a long-term incentive plan payable entirely in shares for the CEO and members of its key management personnel, structured into three overlapping three-year periods or cycles (from the IPO, i.e., October 20, 2017, to December 31, 2020; from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021; and from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022). The metrics to be used to measure delivery of the targets for the first cycle are, in equal parts: (i) EBITDA; (ii) the net development margin; and (iii) the shareholder return. For each there are minimum thresholds below which the bonuses do not accrue; there is also scope for outperformance. The number of shares to be received by each participant will be determined by the price of the shares in each three-year cycle (the IPO price for the first cycle and the average trading price during the 20 trading sessions prior to the start of the second and third cycles) and the level of target delivery. All of the shares received by the CEO and 50% of those received by the key management personnel are subject to a one-year lock-up from when they are received. In the case of the CEO and members of the Management Committee, this bonus is subject to repayment under certain circumstances. The cost of this incentive plan will be assumed by the Group. The maximum amount receivable by the plan beneficiaries is 11 million euros. The plan was endorsed by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee on February 27, 2018 and was executed with the beneficiaries between March and April 2018.
The amount recognized under "Other equity instruments" in respect of the commitment assumed under the longterm incentive plan by the Parent vis-a-vis its key management personnel stood at 2.179.769 euros (1,123,887 euros at year-end 2018).
The Company did not recognize any provisions or contingencies at either December 31, 2019 or 2018.

On August 6, 2018, the Company arranged a 150,000,000 euros corporate syndicated loan which was used to finance land purchases; it had six months to draw the loan down. Said availability period was extended until August 8, 2020 with a 0.25% extension fee. It has a maturity of 24 months and carried interest of 3.5% in year one and 4.25% in year two. At December 31, 2019, the nominal balance drawn down is 150 million euros (60 million euros at December 31, 2018). The amount recognized by using the amortized cost method at December 31, 2019 is 148,407,984 euros (57,630,275 euros at December 31, 2018). The interest payable as of December 31, 2019 amounts to 1,133,864 euros (410,667 euros as of December 31, 2018).
This recognizes the tax payment obligation (VAT and Corporate Tax) to Group Companies, as a consequence of the applicable fiscal consolidation regime with effect from January 1, 2018, and the special provisions applicable to groups of entities (VAT).
On June 14, 2019, the Company issued a new "AEDAS HOMES 2019 Commercial Paper Notes Program" on Spain's alternative fixed income market (MARF in its Spanish) to replace the commercial paper notes program issued on June 12, 2018. It can issue up to 150,000,000 euros of paper under the program with terms of up to 24 months. The idea is to diversify the Group's sources of financing.
During 2019, the Company closed several issues under the program, issuing a total amount of 194.3 million euros; of which 150 million euros have been repaid on maturity, an amount of 78.3 million euros remaining, which falls due in several tranches, until November 2020. The effective annual cost of those issues was 0.99%.
During 2018, the Company closed several issues under the previous program on Spain's alternative fixed income market, issuing a total amount of 78.2 million euros; of which an amount of 44.2 million euros was repaid at maturity, an amount of 34.4 million euros remaining, which fell due in several tranches, until May 2019. The effective annual cost of those issues was 0.70%.
The commercial paper is initially recognized at the fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequently, the implicit interest on the paper is accrued using the effective interest rate on the transaction so that the carrying amount of these borrowings is adjusted for the interest accrued. The commercial paper issued by the Company was carried at 78,009,410 euros at December 31, 2019, recognized by using the effective interest rate method (33,953,563 euros at December 31, 2018).
On October 17, 2017, AEDAS Homes arranged an equity swap with Goldman Sachs to hedge the exposure arising from its obligation to deliver a certain number of shares to employees of AEDAS Homes under the longterm incentive plan (LTIP) approved by the Board of Directors on September 26, 2017. At December 31, 2019, the fair value of the derivative is 1,196,640 euros (1,114,568 euros at year-end 2018), recognized as a liability.
As this agreement expires on December 31, 2020, during the financial year 2019 it has been reclassified to short term.
In accordance with prevailing tax legislation, tax returns cannot be considered final until they have been inspected by the tax authorities or until the four-year inspection period has elapsed. At December 31, 2019, the Company had all its tax returns since incorporation (Note 1) open to inspection.
The Group applied to have the tax authorities allow it to file its taxes under the consolidated tax regime from January 1, 2018.

At December 31, 2019, the deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences correspond to provisions for an amount of 544,942 euros (280,972 euros at December 31, 2018) and changes in the fair value of the derivative for an amount of 301,807 euros (262,691 euros as of 31 December 2018).

The metrics to be used to measure delivery of the targets for the first cycle are, in equal parts: (i) EBITDA; (ii) the net development margin; and (iii) the shareholder return. For each there are minimum thresholds below which the bonuses do not accrue; there is also scope for outperformance. The number of shares to be received by each participant will be determined by the price of the shares in each three-year cycle (the IPO price for the first cycle and the average trading price during the 20 trading sessions prior to the start of the second and third cycle) and the level of target delivery. All of the shares received by the CEO and 50% of those received by the key management personnel are subject to a one-year lockup from when they are received. In the case of the CEO and members of the Management Committee, this bonus is subject to repayment under certain circumstances. The cost of this incentive plan will be assumed by the Group. The maximum amount payable to the plan beneficiaries is 11 million euros. The plan was endorsed by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee on February 27, 2018 and was executed with the beneficiaries between March and April 2018.
In 2019, the Company paid 27,917 euros of civil liability insurance premiums on behalf of its directors to cover potential damages caused in the course of carrying out their duties (33,384 euros in year 2018).
For the purposes of article 229 of Spain's Corporate Enterprises Act, the directors have stated that they are not affected by any conflict of interest in relation to the Parent's interests.
The Group, of which Aedas Homes is the Parent (Note 1), manages its capital so as to ensure that the Group companies will be able to continue as profitable concerns while maximizing shareholder returns by balancing its debt versus equity structure.
Financial risk management is centralized in the Corporate Finance Department, which has established the mechanisms necessary for controlling exposure to credit and liquidity risk and, to a lesser extent, interest rate risk.
The Company is not exposed to significant credit risk since its customers are group companies under a contract for the provision of services signed with its subsidiaries, and since collection of the proceeds from the sale of its developments to customers is guaranteed by the properties sold; in addition, its cash surpluses are placed with highly solvent banks in respect of which counterparty risk is immaterial.
The Company determines its liquidity requirements by means of cash forecasts. These forecasts pinpoint when the Group will need funds and how much and new funding initiatives are planned accordingly.
In order to ensure ongoing liquidity and the ability to service all the payment commitments arising from its business operations, the Company holds the cash balances shown on the balance sheet as well as the credit lines and financing agreements detailed in Note 12.
The Company's directors believe that these arrangements will be sufficient to cover its cash requirements and those of its subsidiaries going forward. The liquidity function is managed at the Group level, so the operating companies do not face liquidity shortfalls and can concentrate on pursuing their real estate developments, which are financed using external borrowings.
Although the Group's cash balances and borrowings both expose it to interest rate risk, and this could have an adverse impact on its net finance costs and cash flows, the Company's directors have not deemed it necessary to write interest rate hedges.
No accounts receivable from Group companies, related parties or third parties were past due at December 31, 2019.
On June 14, 2019, the Company issued the new program "AEDAS HOMES 2019 Commercial Paper Notes Program" on Spain's alternative fixed income market (MARF in its acronym in Spanish), in substitution of the commercial paper notes program arranged on June 12, 2018. It can issue up to 150,000,000 euros of paper under the program with terms of up to 24 months. The idea is to diversify the Group's sources of financing. During the financial year 2019, the Company closed several issues under the program, issuing a total nominal amount of 194.3 million euros; an amount of 150 million euros have been amortized at maturity, a nominal amount of 78.3 million euros remaining that falls due in several tranches, until November 2020.
On August 6, 2018, the Company arranged a 150,000,000 euros corporate syndicated loan which was used to finance land purchases; it had six months to draw the loan down. Said availability period was extended until August 8, 2020 with a 0.25% extension fee. It has a maturity of 24 months and carried interest of 3.5% in year one and 4.25% in year two. At December 31, 2019, the nominal balance drawn down is 150 million euros (60 million euros at December 31, 2018). The amount recognized by using the amortized cost method at December 31, 2019 is 148,407,984 euros (57,630,275 euros at December 31, 2018).
The borrowings from Group companies were capitalized on October 3, 2017 (Note 6), thus improving the Group's capital structure.
Note that the business plan targets a leverage ratio at the Group level of 30-35%.
A 100 basis point movement in interest rates would have increased finance costs by 652,712 euros in the year ended December 31, 2019 (40,000 euros in the year ended 31 December, 2018).
One employee with a disability of a severity of 33% or higher is employed by the Company at year-end 2019 and 2018.
The Board of Directors was made up of 9 directors at December 31, 2019, and 2018, seven of whom were men and two were women (9 persons at December 31, 2018, whom 8 were men and one was a women).

For the year ended December 31, 2019

The merger between Aedas Homes Group (Transferee) and Aedas Homes (Transferor) closed on June 29, 2017 and the name and registered office of the Transferee were changed to those of the Transferor, so the Company's name was changed from Aedas Homes Group to Aedas Homes. The merger by absorption implied: (i) the dissolution and extinction of the Transferor; (ii) the en-bloc transfer of all the latter's assets and liabilities to the Transferee, which acquired all its rights and obligations by universal succession.
The shares representing the share capital of Aedas Homes S.A. have been trading on the continuous stock markets of Madrid, Barcelona, Bilbao and Valencia since October 20, 2017, at a price of 31.65 euros per share, the Group's share capital being increased as outlined in Note 10 of the attached notes to the 2019 financial statements.

At present, Aedas Homes, S.A. heads up a group of enterprises that carries out its business activities either directly or through investments in other companies with an identical or similar corporate object.
The corporate structure of the group comprising Aedas Homes, S.A. and its subsidiaries (the Group) at December 31, 2019 is presented below:
The Group conducts its business exclusively in Spain. Its core business, as outlined in article 2 of the Company's bylaws, consists of:
At December 31, 2019, the Group's assets totalled 1,202,927,416 euros, liabilities (current and non-current) amounted to 252,514,348 euros and equity stood at 950,413,068 euros, 623,497,318 euros of which consisted of loans extended to the Parent by the Majority Shareholder and then capitalized on October 3, 2017.
In 2019, the net turnover was 53,399,228 euros, of which 25,974,685 euros related to services rendered under the provision of administration, management and delegated development services agreements entered into with the various Group companies and 27,424,543 euros related to financial income from loans granted to Group companies.
EBITDA amounted to a positive amount of 27,513,086 euros in 2019.
The Group reported a profit of 15,027,995 euros in 2019.
At December 31, 2019, liabilities - current and non-current - stood at 252,514,348 euros, compared to 112,994,075 euros at December 31, 2018 (implying an increase of 139,520,273 euros), due mainly to the drawdown of the syndicated loan and the issuance of the commercial paper notes described in note 12 of the accompanying financial statements.
As stated in note 1 of the financial statements, in view of the nature of its business activities, Aedas Homes has no environmental liabilities, expenses, assets, provisions or contingencies that could be material in respect of its equity, financial position or performance. Nor does it have any obligations related with greenhouse gas emission allowances.
The average number of people employed by the Company was 204 in 2019 (154 people in 2018). The breakdown of the workforce on the reporting date by region, department and job category is provided below:
| Region | 31.12.19 |

| Madrid | 139 |
| Cataluña | 20 |
| Este e Islas Baleares | 21 |

| Resto de Andalucía | 19 |

Note 18 to the financial statements outlines the Group's capital and liquidity risk management policies.
The Group determines its liquidity requirements by means of cash forecasts. These forecasts pinpoint when the Group will need funds and how much, and new funding initiatives are planned accordingly.
In order to ensure ongoing liquidity and the ability to service all the payment commitments arising from its business operations, the Group holds the cash balances shown on the balance sheet as well as the credit lines and financing agreements detailed in Note 12 of the attached notes to the 2019 financial statements.
The Company's directors believe that these arrangements will be sufficient to cover its cash requirements and those of its subsidiaries going forward. The liquidity function is managed at the Group level, so that the operating companies do not face liquidity shortfalls and can concentrate on pursuing their real estate developments, which are financed using external borrowings.
The Parent has drawn up a risk map. To this end, it has analysed the organization's procedures, identifying the potential sources of risk, quantifying the related exposures and taking the opportune measures to prevent their materialization.
The most significant financial risks to which the Group is exposed are:
On October 17, 2017, AEDAS Homes arranged an equity swap with Goldman Sachs to hedge the exposure arising from its obligation to deliver a certain number of shares to employees of AEDAS Homes under the longterm incentive plan (LTIP) approved by the Board of Directors on September 26, 2017.
The Group is not significantly exposed to third-party credit risk as a result of its property development business as it collects payment for virtually all sales made at the time of completion of the sale, at which time the buyer either assumes the commensurate part of the developer loan concerned or opts to use a different payment arrangement. Credit risk as a result of the deferral of payments in land or finished building sale transactions is mitigated by obtaining collateral from the buyer or stipulating termination clauses in the event of default that would lead to the Group's recovery title to the asset sold and collection of a penalty payment.
In general, the Group holds its cash and cash equivalents at financial entities with high credit ratings.
The Company regularly analyses its credit risk in respect of its accounts receivable, updating the corresponding provision for impairment accordingly. The Company's directors believe that the carrying amounts of the Group's trade and other receivables approximate their fair value.
Given the Company's scant exposure to markets outside the Eurozone, exposure to foreign exchange risk is considered immaterial.
Given Aedas Homes S.A.'s business lines, it does not engage in any a significant research and development activities.
The Company arranged a liquidity agreement with BANCO DE SABADELL, S.A. (the "Financial Broker") on March 28, 2018 with the sole object of fostering the frequency and regularity with which the Company's shares are traded, within the limits established at the Company's Annual General Meeting and, specifically, CNMV Circular 1/2017 on liquidity agreements.
The term of the contract was 12 months from its date of effectiveness, which is April 5, 2018.
On 28 December 2018 the Company put on hold the liquidity agreement as a result of having exceeding the limit of Funds as established in Circular 1/2017, of 26 April of the Spanish National Securities Market Commission (CNMV), on liquidity contracts, resuming it on January 24, 2019 once the adjustments to place the contract within the limit of resources with adjusted balances had been made, as stated in Circular 1/2017 on liquidity agreements. However, with effect from March 20, 2019, the Company terminated the liquidity agreement, as its objectives had been achieved. During this period, 94,178 shares were purchased at an average price of € 22.7610 / per share and 92,784 shares were sold at an average price of € 22,9339 / per share, leaving a remaining balance of 28,031 shares that were sold as a block trade on 29 March at a price of € 22.80 / per share.
The Board of Directors of the Company, in the meeting held on 25 July 2019, agreed to buy back shares, initially in the form of a discretionary program. Subsequently, in the meeting held on 25 September 2019, resolved to purchase Company shares (Buy-Back Program) for a maximum net investment of 50,000,000 euros and until reaching 2,500,000 shares in treasury stock. Said Buy Back Program will remain in effect for a maximum period of 36 months and will be implemented by JB Capital Markets, S.V., S.A.U.
Within the framework of operations with Company own shares (discretionary management, Buy-Back Program and block trades), which began on August 7, 2019, a total of 1,485,057 shares were purchased until December 31, 2019, at an average price of 20.6079 euros, no sales being made in this period.
During the financial year 2018, it purchased 369,699 shares at an average price of 28.43 euros per share and sold 323,533 at an average price of 27.60 euros per share.
As outlined in Note 20 of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, no events have taken place since the end of the reporting period that might have a material impact on the information presented in the financial statements authorized for issue by the directors, or that should be highlighted because they have significant impact, except for those that are described in said note.
The information regarding the Additional Provision Three "Disclosure requirements" of Act 15/2010 of July 5, which modifies the Act 3/2004, of December 29, by which the measures for the fighting against arrear in commercial operations are established, is presented in the Note 19.d of the attached notes to the 2019 financial statements, in compliance with the requirements of such Act.
At present, Aedas Homes, S.A. is the parent of a group of enterprises. It carries out its business activities either directly or through investments in other companies.

At December 31, 2019, liabilities - current and non-current - stood at 252,514,348 euros, compared to 112,994,075 euros at December 31, 2018 (implying an increase of 139,520,273 euros), due mainly to the drawdown of the syndicated loan and the issuance of the commercial paper notes described in note 12 of the accompanying financial statements.
In 2019, the net turnover was 53,399,228 euros, of which 25,974,685 euros related to services rendered under the provision of administration, management and delegated development services agreements entered into with the various Group companies and 27,424,543 euros related to financial income from loans granted to Group companies
