CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF CHANGES IN EQUITY (cont.)

For the six months ended 30 June 2017

(in USD thousand, unless otherwise stated)

• In accordance with the Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113, Section 55 (2) the share premium reserve can only be used by the Company in (a) paying up unissued shares of the Company to be issued to members of the Company as fully paid bonus shares; (b) writing off the expenses of, or the commission paid or discount allowed on, any issue of shares or debentures of the Company; and (c) providing for the premium payable on redemption of any redeemable preference shares or of any debentures of the Company.
• Companies which do not distribute 70% of their profits after tax, as defined by the Special Contribution for the Defence of the Republic Law, during the two years after the end of the year of assessment to which the profits refer, will be deemed to have distributed this amount as dividend. Special contribution for defence at 17% will be payable on such deemed dividend to the extent that the owners (individuals and companies) at the end of the period of two years from the end of the year of assessment to which the profits refer are Cyprus tax residents. The amount of this deemed dividend distribution is reduced by any actual dividend paid out of the profits of the relevant year at any time. This special contribution for defence is paid by the Company for the account of the owners.

The above requirement of the Law is not applied in the case of the Company due to the fact that its owners are not residents in Cyprus for tax purposes.

13. TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES (cont.)

On 29 June 2012, the Company entered into a preliminary agreement with Stiomi Agri Limited ('Seller') for the acquisition of 100% of the issued share capital of Private Enterprise 'Peredilske'. The parties agreed that the price for transfer of the company's shares amounting to USD 23 080 000.

On 26 December 2012, the Company entered into a preliminary agreement with Stiomi Agri Limited ('Seller') for the acquisition of 100% of the issued share capital of Limited Liability Company 'Skhid Potencial-Resurs'. The parties agreed that the price for transfer of the company's shares shall amount to USD 10 000 000.

On 3 September 2013 both agreements for the acquisition of PE "Peredilske" and of LLC "Skhid-Potencial-Resurs" have been cancelled. The parties agreed that the whole amount paid should be returned to the Company within twelve months of the signing of the cancellation agreements, either in cash and/or an equivalent market value's worth of agricultural goods.

Due to political and economic developments and military conflict in Eastern Ukraine, Stiomi Agri Limited is currently unable to repay this amount to the Group. It is highly probable that this amount will never be recovered, therefore an impairment loss for USD 33 080 thousand was recognised in 2014.

19. OPERATING SEGMENTS

A reportable segment is a separable component of a business entity that produces goods or provides services to individuals (or groups of related products or services) in a particular economic environment that is subject to risks and generates revenues other than risks and income of those components that are peculiar to other reportable segments.

Reportable segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. All reportable segments' results are reviewed regularly by the Group's CEO to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.

The operating businesses are organised and managed separately according to the nature of products and services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products and serves different markets.

For the six months ended 30 June 2017 the Group identified the following reportable segments, which include products and services, that differ by levels of risk and conditions of generation of income:

• (ii) Plant breeding segment raises and sells agricultural products and renders accompanying services. The main types of agricultural produce which are sold in this reportable segment are wheat, rye, barley, sunflowers, rape and sunflower oil. The main services which are sold in this reportable segment are ploughing, handling and grain storage services.
• (ii) Livestock segment raises and sells biological assets and agricultural products of cattle breeding. The main biological assets and agricultural products which are sold in this reportable segment are poultry, cattle, pigs and milk.

No operating segments have been aggregated to form the above reportable operating segments.

Transfer prices between operating segments are on an arm's length basis in a manner similar to transactions with third parties.

Management monitors the operating results of each of the unit separately for the purpose of making decisions about resources allocation and evaluation of operating results.

Segment performance is evaluated based on operating profit or loss and is measured consistently with operating profit or loss in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Group financing (including finance expense and finance income) and income taxes, are managed on a group basis and are not allocated to operating segments.

The Group carries out its core financial and economic activities in the territory of Ukraine. Accordingly, the Group selects one geographical reportable segment.

20. SEASONALITY OF OPERATIONS

The Group's operations are subject to seasonal fluctuations as a result of weather conditions. In particular, the cultivation of crops is adversely affected by winter weather conditions, which occur primarily from January to March. The first half of the year typically results in lower revenues and results for cultivations.

As a result of the annual cycle of crops producing and the Group's attempts to take an advantage of seasonal price changes by managing inventory in its storage facilities, the Group's Plant breeding segment is subject to seasonal fluctuations. Profits of this segment tend to be higher in the first half of a year.

21. OPERATING ENVIROMENT

Cyprus economic environment

According to the Cyprus Statistical Service, economic growth for 2016 was estimated at + 2,8% compared to 2015. Even though the financial services sector showed negative growth, there has been an increase in the Gross Domestic Product which is mainly attributed to the hotels, construction, manufacturing and the wholesale and retail trade sectors. The economic growth was mainly driven by the increase in private consumption, which benefited from the reduction in unemployment and the consequent increase in disposable income. The growth was also supported by the slower pace of reductions in public spending and the increase in investments. On 17 March 2017 the credit rating of the country rose from BB to BB +.

Ukrainian economic and political environment

The Group conducts its operations mainly in Ukraine. Ukraine's political and economic situation has deteriorated significantly since 2014. Following political and social unrest in early 2014, in March 2014, various events in Crimea led to the accession of the Republic of Crimea to the Russian Federation, which was not recognised by Ukraine and many other countries. This event resulted in a significant deterioration of the relationship between Ukraine and the Russian Federation. Following the instability in Crimea, regional tensions have spread to the Eastern regions of Ukraine, primarily Donetsk and Lugansk regions. In May 2014, protests in those regions escalated into military clashes and armed conflict between supporters of the self-declared republics of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions and the Ukrainian forces, which continued throughout the date of these financial statements. As a result of this conflict, part of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions remains under control of the self-proclaimed republics, and Ukrainian authorities are not currently able to fully enforce Ukrainian laws on this territory.

Political and social unrest combined with the military conflict in the Donetsk and Lugansk regions has deepened the ongoing economic crisis, caused a fall in the country's gross domestic product and foreign trade, deterioration in state finances, depletion of the National Bank of Ukraine's foreign currency reserves, significant devaluation of the national currency and a further downgrading of the Ukrainian sovereign debt credit ratings. Following the devaluation of the national currency, the National Bank of Ukraine introduced certain administrative restrictions on currency conversion transactions, which among others included restrictions on purchases of foreign currency by individuals and companies, the requirement to convert 65% (2015: 75%) of foreign currency proceeds to local currency, a ban on payment of dividends abroad, a ban on early repayment of foreign loans and restrictions on cash withdrawals from banks. These events had a negative effect on Ukrainian companies and banks, significantly limiting their ability to obtain financing on domestic and international markets.

21. OPERATING ENVIROMENT (cont.)

The final resolution and the effects of the political and economic crisis are difficult to predict but may have further severe effects on the Ukrainian economy.

Whilst management believes it is taking appropriate measures to support the sustainability of the Group's business in the current circumstances, a continuation of the current unstable business environment could negatively affect the Group's results and financial position in a manner not currently determinable. These consolidated financial statements reflect management's current assessment of the impact of the Ukrainian business environment on the operations and the financial position of the Group. The future business environment may differ from management's assessment.

Going concern basis

The dangers which may arise from unexpected external factors such as competition, and the further deterioration of the market conditions cannot be ignored. In addition the current financial position of the Group, the uncertain economic conditions in Cyprus and Ukraine, the unavailability of finance, the blockage of funds, together with the current instability of the banking system and the anticipated overall future economic recession may hinder the management's effort to sustain the group as a going concern. However having regard to the fact that with the consent of the Noteholders, the Company has amended the terms and conditions of the Notes with an extension of maturity date and postponement of interest payments, the Board of Directors believes that the Company will remain a going concern and that no indications of any kind of threat of liquidation exists in the foreseeable future.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include any adjustments that would be necessary in case the Group was not able to continue operating as a going concern which could include:

• 1. The ability of the Group to repay its Noteholders
• 1. The ability of the Group's trade and other debtors to repay the amounts due to the Group
• 1. The cash flow forecasts of the Group and the assessment of impairment of other financial and non-financial assets
• 1. The ability to realize the current assets held for sale
• 1. The ability of the Group to repay its loans
• 1. The ability of the Group to meet its obligations towards its customers

22. CONTINGENT AND CONTRACTUAL LIABILITIES

Economic environment

The exposure of the Group to the economic environment and possible impact is disclosed in note 21 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Taxation

As a result of unstable economic enviroment in Ukraine, tax authorities in Ukraine pay more and more attention to the business cycles. In connection with this, tax laws in Ukraine are subject to frequent changes. Furthermore, there are cases of their inconsistent application, interpretation and execution. Noncompliance with laws and regulations may lead to severe fines and penalties.

For the six months ended 30 June 2017

(in USD thousand, unless otherwise stated)

22. CONTINGENT AND CONTRACTUAL LIABILITIES (cont.)

Taxation (cont.)

The Company operates in the Cypriot tax jurisdiction and its subsidiaries in tax jurisdiction of the respective countries of incorporation. The Group's management must interpret and apply existing legislation to transactions with third parties and its own activities. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for direct and indirect taxes. There are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.The Group's uncertain tax positions are reassessed by management at every reporting period end. Liabilities are recorded for income tax positions that are determined by management as more likely than not to result in additional taxes being levied if the positions were to be challenged by the tax authorities.

The assessment is based on the interpretation of tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting period and any known court or other rulings on such issues. Liabilities for penalties, interest and taxes other than on income are recognised based on management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligations at the reporting period.

The Group considers that it operates in compliance with tax laws of Ukraine, although, a lot of new laws about taxes and transactions in foreign currency have been adopted recently, and their interpretation is rather ambiguous.

Since 1 January 2017 new procedure of VAT rules for agricultural producers has been implemented: special VAT treatment was changed to distribution of government grants by State Treasure Service.

Legal matters

In the course of its economic activities, the Group is involved in legal proceedings with third parties. In most cases, the Group is the initiator of such proceedings with the purpose of preventing or mitigating of economic losses.

The Group's management considers that as at the reporting period end, active legal proceedings on such matters will not have any significant influence on its financial position.

Pension and other liabilities

Most employees of the Group receive pension benefits from the Pension Fund, a Ukrainian Government organisation in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations of Ukraine. The Group is obliged to deduct and contribute a certain percentage of salaries to the Pension Fund to finance the benefits. The only obligation of the Group with respect to this pension plan is to make the specified contributions from salaries.

At 30 June 2017 and 31 December 2016 the Group's entities had no liabilities for any supplementary pensions, health care, insurance benefits or retirement indemnities to its current or former employees.

The average rental payment for leased plough-land in the six months ended 30 June 2017 ranges between 3% - 7% (year ended 31 December 2016: 3% - 4%) from the normative value of land.

23. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD

Events referred to in note 21 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements will continue to influence the Group's operations in 2017. While management believes it is taking all necessary measures to maintain the sustainability of the business in the current circumstances, a further deterioration of economic and political conditions in Ukraine could adversly affect the Group's results and financial position, so that it is currently impossible to predict.

On 29 August 2017 the Board of Directors of Agroton Public Limited approved and authorised these condensed consolidated interim financial statements for issue.
