Dear Shareholders and Fans of Mountains,

Last year we grew in online sales via our GOPASS e-shop. In fact, the number of ski passes sold via GOPASS tripled, and it is quickly becoming one of our strongest sales channels. For the past year 144 thousand new members registered for GOPASS. The added value of GOPASS has also been internationally recognized as GOPASS was awarded three prizes for the Best loyalty program by Loyalty Awards in London.

TMR had the best year so far. The winter season 2014/15 was a success; thanks to abundance of snowfall, the season prolonged till May, and weather favorable for snowmaking especially at the beginning of the winter, we managed to grow in the number of our visitors to our mountain resorts. All our segments benefited from the surge of guests. During peak periods of New Year's and the Golden week we managed to fill our hotels to the limit despite a decline in Russian-speaking clients. The decline in the share of clients from Russia and from Ukraine was compensated by Polish, Czech, and Slovak guests. The summer season continued the positive trend of the winter with plentiful marketing events and relatively warm weather, favorable for outdoor activities. In total, our Tatra resorts were visited by 18% more visitors who spent on average 13% more, and Aquapark Tatralandia observed 9% more guests. Average client spending was also higher in ancillary services. Thanks to all these factors we were able to fulfill our financial goals for the year. The record-high results confirmed that TMR was able to fulfill its promise of the New Era of the Tatras in Slovakia. At the same time, our acquisitions in Poland give us a good basis in order to repeat the same successful story also on this market and build a strong central European corporation. CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors

We also grew in the number of ski passes sold via external lodging providers who provided ski passes directly to their clients. This positive fact in the client's favor confirms TMR's deepening cooperation with other tourist businesses in the regions of Liptov and the Tatras.

This is the first time that our results have included the resort Szczyrkowski Ośrodek Narciarski S.A. (SON), which we had acquired in March 2014. Also, we have initiated the project of modernization of SON and made a progress in obtaining necessary permits for infrastructure investments in the resort.

Last year we were working on expansion of our business operations. As for cross-border expansion, in April we agreed to acquire a 75% share in Silesian Amusement Park in Poland, to operate it, and to modernize it with the budget of EUR 30 mil. in a five-year period, by which we again are multiplying the diversification of our business model and are applying our know-how from operations of our mountain resorts and Aquapark Tatralandia. During the year we even started implementing the modernization plan and installed first new attractions in the park.

As for our real estate projects, we managed to construct nine new chalets at Otupné in the Jasná resort, five of which TMR will be operating.

The goal of this segment is to develop infrastructure and construction activity in the mountain regions. In its realization the Company plans to capitalize on the unique location in the High and Low Tatras region. TMR's strategy in this segment is mostly development, construction, and sale of apartments and non-housing areas. Currently, construction of Chalets Jasná Otupné is underway. Another project, Jasná Center, is in the planning phase.

Alongside these projects necessary infrastructure is being built for the natural development of tourism in the following areas - cableways, infrastructure, trails, information signs, etc. TMR is not planning any green-field projects (on undeveloped land).

VISION

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

MISSION STATEMENT

TMR's mission is to provide services in tourism at a constantly increasing level, in particular through business activities divided into three key segments - Mountains & Leisure, Hotels, and Real Estate, where the Mountain & Leisure segment covers operation of mountain resorts, an aquapark, a leisure park and additional services throughout the year. The Company plans to fulfil its mission through synergies leading to a complex satisfaction of both, its clients and shareholders.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

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

  • There are more than 7.5 million people living within 200 km of the Tatras - a client base with a long term tradition of visiting the Tatras.
  • The Poprad Airport ensures easy access by air from key European cities outside the mountainous area, e.g. London, Warsaw, Riga, and by charter or private flights from summer destinations such as Turkey and Bulgaria.
  • To the east of the Tatras there are ski resorts with only limited comparable services.
  • The high altitude provides a competitive advantage for TMR, comparing to other resorts in the region, since it significantly mitigates the risk of unfavorable weather as a result of global warming.
  • TMR is able to capitalize on intra-segmental and intrasubsegmental synergies in sales, purchase, operations, and support areas of the Group.
  • TMR's business model is well diversified with revenue generation from mountain resorts, leisure parks, hotels and complementary services
  • TMR mitigates the risk of seasonality with its summer season comparably strong to its winter season thanks to its summer cableway operations and summer activities, popularity of hotels in the mountain resorts, the summer operation of

Silesian Amusement Park, and the all-year operation of Aquapark Tatralandia.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

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

PILLAR 1: INCREASING QUALITY WITH INVESTMENTS

By the end of 2015, for the last nine years TMR has invested in its resorts and hotels around 206 million euros. As a result of these investments, the services provided by TMR in the High and Low Tatras improved significantly. TMR resorts thus reached the level of Alpine resorts, and increased their leading position in the region within the industry. Investments completed in the last eight years include ten new cableways, which means increase of the transportation capacity by 55%; extension of technical snowmaking by 100% to total of 49.5 km of ski trails with snowmaking and 671 snow guns; ski trail areas larger by 46%, in total length of 73 km in both the High and the Low Tatras; or tens of après ski bars and restaurants on the slopes of the ski resorts. Other investments were aimed at improvement and renovation of accommodation capacities, and enhancement of infrastructure in all the resorts and at enhancement of services and operations, such as the Tropical Paradise in Aquapark Tatralandia.

In the following periods TMR plans for its resorts in the Slovak Tatras to grow organically and capitalize on the completed investments. Future CAPEX in the Slovak resorts will mainly cover maintenance investments and investments into additional enhancement of services provided, tailored to customers' needs, such as lodging facilities, après-ski and dining options, and other complementary services. As for investments into development of the newly acquired assets, TMR plans to develop the Polish SON resort to the level of its Tatra resorts. In the medium term TMR committed to modernize and expand the resort by investing over EUR 30 mil. there. At the same time TMR plans to modernize Silesian Amusement Park with the budget of EUR 30 mil. in the course of following five years. In the Špindlerův Mlýn resort, which TMR co-manages, investments are planned into transportation facilities and other infrastructure, as well as into ancillary services with the total budget of CZK 800 mil. in the period of 20 years from 2012/13.

PILLAR 2: STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS AND EXPANSION OF OPERATIONS IN CEE

After fulfillment of the primary vision of - New Era of the Tatras - in 2012/13, TMR currently concentrates on strategic acquisitions of ski resorts and amusement parks on the local market, as well as on the international level, namely in the region of Central and Eastern Europe. The most recent addition to the Company`s portfolio was Silesian Amusement Park in Poland in May 2015. Other key acquisitions include the ski resort Szczyrkowski Ośrodek Narciarski (SON) in the Polish Beskids from March 2014 or Holiday Resort Tatralandia, acquired in April 2011, which includes Aquapark Tatralandia and Holiday Village Tatralandia. Strategic expansion of the operations on the neighboring Czech market includes a minority interest in Melida a.s., the operator of the Špindlerův Mlýn resort. In 2013 TMR founded a Polish company - Korona Ziemi Sp. z o.o. - together with the Polish town of Zawoja as part of establishing TMR's presence on the Polish market.

PILLAR 3: CONSTANT OPERATIONS & SERVICES ENHANCEMENT

Management wants to achieve intensive growth of the number of visitors primarily by intensive customer orientation. Strategic steps to achieve this goal include increasing the variety and quality of the services provided. TMR expands the scale of attractions offered and improves the quality of ski schools, ski equipment rentals, and dining facilities on slopes. Moreover, it continuously improves the offer of après ski possibilities. The Company also tries to optimize transport possibilities to its resorts and cooperates with local business entities on the level of regional clusters. TMR prefers to cooperate rather than compete with them; it wants to build on their success and provide their customers easy access to its nearby mountain resorts and leisure parks and a variety of attractions for children, adrenalin sports for the young (e.g. bike parks), and relaxation zones. Regarding accommodation possibilities, TMR focuses primarily on four-star hotels and improvement of their wellness and dining services. Other strategic steps include

focus on affluent clientele, essential quality of management and staff, and a sophisticated marketing strategy. Another key to TMR's growth is innovation. In regards to that, TMR acts as the trendsetter in tourism. In 2013 TMR launched its loyalty program GOPASS, which enables its customers to collect points in its facilities by using its services and pay bargain prices, and at the same time, GOPASS serves as TMR's Customer Relationship Management and Direct Marketing tool. This loyalty program was awarded in 2015 at The Loyalty Awards in London, where it won in categories: the Best loyalty programme of the year in the travel sector (airlines, hotels, destinations); the Best loyalty programme of the year in Central and Eastern Europe; and the Best Customer Relationship Management (CRM) in a loyalty programme for Direct Marketing. Within this pillar TMR fully utilizes synergic effects among its segments and subsegments, thus it is able to constantly optimize services it provides, as well as to keep expanding its variety of products and services, e.g. an option to use services of several mountain resorts and the aquapark with purchase of just one ticket.

The New Era of the Tatras Project

The primary vision of TMR was revival of the High and the Low Tatras. The reason behind this vision was overall underdevelopment and very limited infrastructure regarding tourism in the region. Thanks to incremental consolidation of unique assets and as a result of intensive investments aimed at development and enhancement of these assets, and tourism in the region, TMR reached its goal and this vision became a reality. Due to greater attractiveness of the mountain resorts, the number of visitors in the High Tatras' resorts - Tatranská Lomnica, Starý Smokovec, and Štrbské Pleso, and in Jasná Nízke Tatry - increased significantly. As a direct consequence of TMR's initiatives, tourism in the region as such recorded more positive results. The initial phase of investment strategy in the Tatras was completed in 2012/2013, with benefits in form of increasing number of visitors and revenues being continuously reflected in the Company's results and expected also in the upcoming years.

Strategy

TMR'S ACTION PLAN FOR 2014/15 INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING STRATEGIC STEPS:

  • Grow our loyal customer base through our GOPASS program and utilize GOPASS as our Direct Marketing tool
  • Launch GOPASS also in the Špindlerův Mlýn resort
  • Finalize the acquisition of the majority interest in Silesian Amusement Park and commence its modernization
  • Progress in preparation works on the project of modernization of the Polish SON resort
  • Continue to analyze acquisition targets on the regional market in tourism
  • Continue to enhance and expand lodging options in TMR's resorts
  • Expand après-ski options on the slope and ancillary services in the resorts
  • Actively increase visit rate and popularity of the resorts by organizing sports and outdoor events in the resorts; strengthen and support the resorts' brand by selecting specific events related to each resort's character perceived by the clients (families with children, sports, culture…)
  • Continue to enhance ski trails and equipment in TMR mountain resorts and its hotel facilities
  • To continue in utilizing synergies among segments and subsegments in sales, operations, purchase, and support services.
  • To continue in cooperation with lodging providers and other business partners in the Tatra region, in form of marketing of the region, stay packages, and universal ski passes.

Management expects that the impact of these strategic steps will be gradually reflected in the Company's results, and mainly the impact of already completed capital investments of prior years in the total of EUR 206 mil.

FINANCIAL GOALS

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

The short term goal for 2014/15 included a growth in operating revenues of 10.3% and a growth in EBITDA of 21.9%1 . That way planned EBITDA margin would reach 33.9%. This financial plan was introduced at the General Shareholders' Meeting on April 25, 2015. The growth was planned steeper than in the prior year, which was negatively impacted by the weather of the winter season 2013/14, unfavorable for winter sports. In contrary, the winter season 2014/15 was successful in terms of favorable weather conditions, the resorts' visit rate, the hotels' occupancy, and the season's length, which Management based TMR's annual financial goals on. Thanks to a strong winter season

2014/15 and a successful summer 2015, TMR achieved, even exceeded its financial plan 2014/15. TMR concluded the year with revenues 14.2% over the plan, whereas EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) exceeded the plan by 15.9%. The operating profitability (EBITDA margin) was slightly over the plan by 0.5 percentage points.

MARKETING STRATEGY

MARKET SEGMENTATION

TMR's client base is, besides customers from Slovakia, based mostly on visitors from neighboring countries, such as Poland, the Czech Republic, Ukraine, and Russia.

The natural market of the Company is in the regions within 200 km radius inhabited by 7.5 million people. This radius includes cities, such as Krakow and Katowice in Poland, as well as Czech cities Ostrava and Olomouc. From the geographical point of view there are other, further markets with limited access to mountains, such as Great Britain, Ireland, Russia (Moscow and Sankt Petersburg), Ukraine, and Baltic countries. Clients from the first group come by cars or buses, while the second group uses air transport.

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

  • affluent clients
  • mainstream
  • low-cost clients

The main marketing goals of the Company include clear brand placement on the market by segmentation of clients and focusing of particular marketing strategies on these specific segments that would lead to maximum synergy of all brands covered by TMR. The Company at the same

time assumes shift of clientele structure towards affluent clientele generating the highest revenues and focusing at products and services with the highest added value.

COMMUNICATION OF STRONG TMR BRAND

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

MARKETING ACTIVITIES

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

As for the Slovak market, also last year TMR cooperated on commercials and sponsored content in the form of product placement on the TV show Telerolo; in the form

of real-time marketing on the TV show The best weather forecast of TV JOJ, in which throughout the whole winter season live images were used from the mountain resorts Jasná Nízke Tatry, Tatranská Lomnica and Štrbské Pleso. Advance sale and mountain resorts spots were broadcasted in radios (Rádio Expres). Cooperation in the form of spot campaigns continued with Rádio Anténa Rock and Rádio Jemné during the winter and summer season. Real-time marketing broadcasted the actual conditions in the mountain resorts and Aquapark Tatralandia.

As for print media, the Company advertised in the daily Pravda, massively in weeklies of the 7PLUS publishing house, but mainly in the weekly Plus 7 dní. Other print media published PR articles and 450 thousand coupons for ski-passes for the Vysoké Tatry and Jasná resorts were inserted in the weekly Plus 7 dní; these ski-passes were offering the opportunity to try out the mountain resorts for a more advantageous price in the off-season. The same approach was used in the case of Tatralandia, namely 390 thousand coupons with the opportunity to experience Aquapark Tatralandia for a more advantageous price were inserted in the weekly Plus7dní and the magazine Báječná žena. The Company's offer also has a very intensive presentation through a not-for-sale image magazine called TATRY MAGAZÍN, which is available in accommodation facilities and tourist facilities as the only lifestyle magazine about the life in the Tatras.

In addition to the above-mentioned advertising campaigns, TMR Marketing Department also performs other, no less important activities such as active participation in exhibitions and fairs, cooperation in destination management with entities operating in the region, such asthe active Liptov Cluster and several

district tourism organizations in the regions or the Slovak Tourist Board (SACR). The Company also cooperates with other ski resort operators, for instance, in the creation of attractive accommodation packages in cooperation with accommodation facilities in the region; TMR is actively using Google adwords campaigns, e-mailing campaigns on web portals and other. Also cooperation with single district tourism organizations, the origin of which was supported by the Tourism Act, and active subsidy policy of the state in relation to the creation and execution of marketing campaigns for regions and creation of regional products supporting tourism, are important for TMR.

USE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATIONS

TMR also keeps in mind the use of innovations and continually improves its communication also via information technology. TMR communicates and informs via individual resort and hotel websites, via the corporate website www.tmr.sk, www.gotatry.sk, or via the e-shop www.gopass.sk. In Poland TMR communicates via the SON resort's website www.szczyrkowski.pl. All TMR hotels communicate with their clients also via a unified website www.tmrhotels.sk.

The Company uses social networks for communicating with clients on a daily basis. In the Company's key markets (Slovakia, Poland and the Czech Republic), Facebook is number one in social networks and, therefore, TMR puts emphasis on the development of a wide fan base. At present, the following resort profiles are administered (fan groups) - JASNÁ Nízke Tatry, Vysoké Tatry - The Adventure Mountains, Aquapark Tatralandia, Szczyrkowski Ośrodek Narciarski, Śląskie Wesołe Miasteczko, Tatry Mountain Resorts, a.s. and smaller profiles of individual projects - Tatranská divočina, Happy End Jasná, Liptov Arena, Events in Tatras and TMR hotels, Bernardino Burger Restaurant, Burton snowpark Jasná, Rocky Mountain Bike World Jasna, Hotel Srdiečko, Nízke Tatry; Après-ski bary Jasná, Tatry Motion, Grandhotel**** Starý Smokovec, Vysoké Tatry; Hotel Fis***, Štrbské Pleso; Hotel Tri Studničky****, Nízke Tatry; Rotunda, Grandhotel Praha****, Vysoké Tatry; Hotel Grand****, Jasná-Nízke Tatry, Holiday Village Tatralandia, Chalets Jasná de Luxe, and FUN ZONE Jasná, and Centrum Górskie Korona Ziemi. For marketing purposes the Company also utilizes social networks Twitter, Linkedin, Instagram, Flicker or a YouTube channel.

The Company's Marketing Department is continually improving the quality of live video transmissions and online information from individual resorts that are available on the Internet and thanks to which clients can get a better idea of actual conditions in the resorts. Information about changing snow conditions and operation of resorts is

MARKETING ACTIVITIES ON INTERNATIONAL MARKETS

The Polish market is the most important foreign market for TMR. And that is the reason why we pay Poland special attention also in terms of marketing strategy and communication. In the past year 2014/15, the key visual "ZaPrzyjemność" and "Alpejski urlop? Najbliżej w Tatrach!" and the Polish web site www.nartyslowacja.pl and also other web sites of each resort were used for campaigns. As for Tatralandia, the focus was aimed at a varied offer during summer and at the key visual "Tatralandia - Morze atrakcji w Tatrách". As for Baltic campaigns and campaigns for the UK market, the website www.gotatry.sk was used. The Company was also using Internet marketing tools such as YouTube, Facebook, Google Adwords campaigns, which together with classic media such as exterior advertising space, TV, radio and PR sports reported millions of views just in the winter alone. Advertising was also aimed at print media and a PR campaign. Communication with more distant markets is facilitated mainly through foreign tourist agencies, although smaller campaigns have already been carried out also in Russian-speaking countries.

DIRECT MARKETING

TMR is currently actively using Direct Marketing also in the GOPASS program. As of the end of the fiscal year, 144 thous. new members were registered in the program. Thanks to Direct Marketing and personal communication with the client TMR achieved additional revenues from sale of EUR 800 thous.

In 2014/15, the total budget of EUR 2.9 million was used for the Group's marketing activities.

Strategy Strategy

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

Operating Performance Indicators:

Number of Visitors

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

Average Revenue per Visitor

In the main segment Mountains & Leisure and its subsegments Mountain Resorts, Leisure Parks, Dining, and Sport Services & Stores, the key indicator is the average revenue per visitor for a given period from sale of ski passes, entries, services, and products.

Occupancy

In the Hotels segment operating performance is monitored based on percentage occupancy of individual hotels in the High and Low Tatras and in the aquapark and of the weighted average of the hotel portfolio.

Average Daily Rate

Average Daily Rate (ADR) is one the key indicators to measure hotel performance. It represents average revenue from per occupied room per given period. The calculation is based on

the equation where room revenues are divided by the number of rooms sold. Management monitors ADR of each hotel and of the weighted average of the hotel portfolio.

Financial Performance Indicators:

Revenues

Operating revenues of the Group come solely from operating activity of the Mountains & Leisure segment - with subsegments Mountain Resorts, Leisure Parks, Dining, and Sports Services & Stores - and from segments Hotels and Real Estate.

EBITDA

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

EBITDA Margin

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

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

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

Slovakia

In recent years Slovakia has been recording one of the best economic growth rates in Europe, mainly thanks to foreign demand (especially in automotive) and positive trade balance. According to the National Bank of Slovakia, in 2014 GDP increased by 2.4% year-over-year in real prices.1 Slovakia's economic growth accelerated dynamically also in 2015 to 3.4% thanks to the highest utilization of EU structural funds so far, continued growth of real discretionary income on the background of dropping prices, and thanks to expected industrial exports. The macroeconomic projection for following years is impacted by a weaker foreign demand. A significant slow-down in investments in 2016 will contribute to a lower projected GDP growth, although GDP's dynamics should oscillate above 3%.2

The Czech Republic

According to Czech National Bank (ČNB), as a result of an aggressive monetary policy following the weakening of Czech koruna, the economy in 2014 reported a growth of 2.5%, In 2015 GDP is projected to have grown 4.3%, impacted by private investments, capitalizing on reviving domestic and foreign demand, and by public investments drawing the remaining EU structural funds. Private consumption should contribute to the GDP growth based on an improving labor market and stronger wages. In 2016 the economic growth should slow down to 2.6% due to absence of one-time growth factors, such as EU funds, regulation effect, pre-supply of tobacco products, or favorable weather.3

Poland

According to Central Statistical Bureau of Poland, economic growth in 2014 was strong, reaching 3.3% in the fourth quarter as export sales soared amid strengthening industrial production. According to EBRD, Polish economy surprised positively in the first half of 2015 thanks to strong real wage, consumption trends, a booming labor market, and government spending of a fiscal over-performance. Thus, growth in 2015 should be the strongest in the region with 3.4%. Delay in utilization of EU structural funds may lead to a weakened public investment in 2016, though growth should stay at a similar level.4

Ukraine

Ukrainian economy fell by 6.8% in 2014 mainly as a result of military turbulence in the eastern part of the country. The current account deficit dropped sharply to 4.7% in 2014 and is expected to decrease further below 2% in 2015. The disruptions to productive and export capacities in Donbas and significant net outflows registered in the financial account put pressure on the currency and reserves. Ukraine's public debt increased steeply to 71% of GDP in 2014 and is expected to reach as high as 100% of GDP at the end of 2015. EBRD forecasts GDP growth at -11.5% in 2015 and 2% in 2016.5

Russia

Economic growth in Russia slowed significantly due to both structural and cyclical factors. As a result of political turbulences in the region investor confidence and economic activity significantly weakened in 2014, reflecting the effect of EU/US sanctions. According to EBRD overall growth in 2014 was flat. In 2015 sanctions restricted access to foreign financing and declining oil prices weighed on economic activity. Household demand contracted sharply, as inflation has been cutting into real incomes. In the third quarter of 2015, lower oil prices and exchange rate depreciation continued to weigh on domestic demand. High growth volatility, uncertainty over future growth prospects, as well as the increased cost of domestic borrowing and restricted access to external funding are discouraging investments, while inventories have also continued to decline. The 2015 GDP growth is estimated at -4.2% and 2016's growth is likely to stay negative at -1.2%.6

Regional Tourism Industry

Following three consecutive years of strong growth, tourism of Central and Eastern Europe has suffered a drop of -5.9% in international arrivals in 2014, which can be attributable to the geopolitical and economic crisis in Ukraine and Russia. The region rebounded from 2014's decrease and grew year-over-year by 6.6% from January to October 2015.9

The Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Index (developed by the World Economic Forum) measures factors and policies that impact competitiveness of the Travel & Tourism sector in individual countries in context of regulatory, business, cultural, and natural environment. According to the Index, in 2015 CEE countries that are ranked higher than Slovakia are the Czech Republic (37), Poland (47), Hungary (41), and Russia (45), whereas Slovakia, which dropped from 54th place in 2013 to 61st, is perceived the least attractive.

Slovak Tourism Industry

Slovakia is mostly visited by neighboring countries, with the most tourists in 2014 coming from the Czech Republic (437 thousand) and Poland, followed by German tourists. In 2014 international tourist arrivals here contracted by -11.7%% to 1.5 million as a result of Russian-Ukrainian conflict, volatility of euro and neighboring currencies, and unfavorable weather. On the other hand, tourists in 2014 stayed longer and spent more. The first half of 2015 has experienced a rebound of 10.4% year-over-year. The top category of tourists in Slovakia is domestic travelers, while the ratio of domestic to foreign travelers was 60/40 in 2014. The number of domestic tourist arrivals declined -5.3% in 2014.10 According to the Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Index in 2015, Slovakia is ranked 61st out of 141, a decline from 54th place in 2013.11

In 2014 almost 55% of tourists in Slovakia come from outside Eurozone. Volatility of their currencies against euro was reflected in prices of vacation stays, which negatively impacted visit rate. The biggest percentage decrease in tourist arrivals to Slovakia was among Russian (-24.5%) and Ukrainian tourists (-31%), caused by their mutual conflict. The negative trend of the year was completed by unfavorable weather in the winter season 2013/14. The governmental agency designated to promote tourism in Slovakia - Slovak Tourism Agency spent EUR 2.7 mil. on global media campaigns and EUR 1.7 mil. on international tourism expos in 2014.12

On the other hand, the length of stay in 2014 increased by 3.1%, which caused direct contribution of tourism to GDP to reach EUR 2.1 bn., and increase of EUR 16.1 mil.14 For 2015 it is forecasted to rise by 2.8% and is expected to grow by 3.8% p.a. to 2025. Travel and tourism directly generated 56,500 jobs or 2.4% of total jobs in 2014, and this is expected to grow by 1.2% in 2015. By 2025 travel & tourism should directly generate 67,000 jobs per year (2.7% of total employment). In 2015 international tourism income should grow by 2.9%. In 2015 international tourist arrivals are expected to have reached 6.3 million.15

European Mountain Industry

Europe is the relevant market for TMR's ski business, especially the CEE region. In Europe the biggest skiing destinations are Alpine countries - Austria, France, Switzerland, Germany, and Italy (see chart below). Worldwide, the Alps capture the greatest market share, accounting for 44% of skier visits (skier days)16, although the winter season 2013/14 experienced a 2% contraction, brought on also by mild weather. The second most significant is North America with 21%, which exhibited stagnancy, as well. Central and Eastern Europe attracts only 10% of skiers, although this region produces 15% of skiers globally and this region's skier visits increased 2.5% in 2013/14 despite the negative weather factors. This introduces an opportunity to grow in provision of ski resorts at least to match the regional demand. Among Alpine countries, France and Austria have the most major resorts (with over 1 million skier visits) - 13 and 14, respectively each, and France with the highest number of skier visits per year- 55.6 million but Austria records the most domestic skier visits per inhabitants- 2.1, whereas Switzerland produces the highest rate of domestic skiers-37%, with Germany having the highest total number of domestic skiers- 14.6 million.17 Mountain industry in general is very capital intensive because of essential investments into cableways and other resort facilities, which represent great barriers of entry. Another essential entry criterion is e.g. location since skiing requires a mountainous area with a milder/ colder climate.

As for characteristics of ski resorts, they vary in size, ownership, and infrastructure. In some alpine countries, they are usually run by a large number of small private operators who join forces also with local municipalities and market the resort or the ski region as a whole, like in Italy, Switzerland or Austria. In France, on the contrary, operation of large ski resorts especially is concentrated with a major operator. German resorts are also fragmented but considerably smaller than in other alpine countries.18 Large alpine resorts usually offer state of the art infrastructure, have over 100 km of ski trails, transport capacity of over 50,000 persons/hr, and more than 30 ski lifts. They also keep reinvesting large amounts into resorts enhancement. TMR resorts can be compared to medium-sized alpine ski resorts.

Regional Mountain Industry

In the CEE region the Czech Republic has the most ski resorts (over 5 lifts) - 70, even though the majority of the areas are up to 1300m above sea level, followed by Russia with 54 and Slovakia with around 47. Poland has 182 ski areas but they are mostly small, suitable for beginners. The Czech Republic had on average for the past five years the highest number of skier visits in the winter season - 8.7 million, followed by Slovakia and Poland, both with estimated 5 million. As for domestic

Market Analysis and Trends

skiers, winter sports in Poland are growing in popularity, as Poland produces the highest absolute number of skiers in the region - 5 million, who make up 13% of population. This proportion grew by more than double since 2013, which presents a great growth potential on this market. Slovakia and the Czech Republic produce a much higher percentage of skiers - 18% and 20%, although there are much more Czech skiers in the absolute number - 2 million. Slovakia has a competitive advantage on the supply side in the region since 80% of the geographical area is situated above 750m above sea level; and the area includes the highest mountain range in the region- the Tatras, with the highest peak of 2,655m - Gerlachovský štít.20

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

Slovak Mountain Tourism

On the Slovak mountain tourism market TMR is the clear leader in terms of the number of resorts, ski lifts, transportation capacity, km of ski trails, and lifts elevation. Mountain resorts in Slovakia are mostly operated by small private operators in cooperation with local municipalities and national parks. There are around 100 ski areas in Slovakia, and 47 major ski resorts (3*, 4*, and 5* quality) in Slovakia. When comparing individual resorts and their km of ski trails, TMR's resorts Jasná Nízke Tatry (49km) and Vysoké Tatry - Tatranská Lomnica, Starý Smokovec a Štrbské pleso (24km) are the biggest ones in Slovakia, followed by Veľká Rača Oščadnica (17km), Vrátna free time zone (13km), Skipark Kubínska Hoľa (14km), and Winter Park Martinky (13km).22

Regional Hotel Industry

The hotel industry in Slovakia as a whole has been following a downward trend in 2014, when the sector revenues decreased by -7%23 year-over-year. However, in 2015 total turnover from accommodation services for hotels for the period of nine months ended September 30 increased by 16.5%.24 TMR's hotels are located in TMR's mountain resorts and Aquapark Tatralandia and most of the clients utilize TMR hotels' services in addition to visiting the resorts. That's why TMR hotels compete for clients with other lodging facilities in the given resort. In the winter season, especially, performance of the hotels is closely linked to performance of the mountain resorts. In Aquapark Tatralandia there is only one lodging facility, thus TMR holds a monopoly here. In the mountain resorts there are other mostly private operators of resort hotels, inns, bed & breakfasts, apartments, and cottages. The region of Jasná Nízke Tatry and Tatralandia experienced a rebound in hotel revenues of 22.8% for the first nine months of 2015, whereas the region of Vysoké Tatry grew 10.3% for the same period.25 Categories of TMR hotels range from 2-star to 4-star. In the resorts there is a greater competition in the lower category lodging than in the upscale segment. The trend in the resorts lodging sector is to cooperate closely with the mountain resort operators in order to attract clients with affordable bundled stay packages. This trend was strong also in 2014. The hotel market in TMR resorts is not saturated, since TMR invested a large amount of capital in recent years, and the resorts attract new investors.

Market Analysis and Trends

Regional Trends in Aquaparks

Regional Trends in Leisure Parks

In Slovakia there is around a dozen aquaparks and thermal spas. Tatralandia ranks among the top three parks in terms of size, visit rate and services offered. The number of visitors primarily depends on the variety and quality of services offered. As for the target market, aquaparks observe an increasing share of solvent clients who tend to spend more during their visits and require higher quality and a wider scale of services. Another observable trend includes continuing investments into parks' development, especially all-year attractions.26 Operators of aquaparks tend to cooperate closely with local hotels and lodging operators, and they form or join local tourism organizations (OOCR).27 Competition in the neighboring countries is present especially closer to the Slovak border- there are three aquaparks close to Slovakia in Poland, nine in the Czech Republic, and seven in Hungary. In 2014 a cold and rainy summer resulted in decreased visit rate and revenues of aquaparks. Development of the Slovak real estate market in 2014 was impacted by major European transactions, by entry of new investors, and by increased demand by local investors. Growth of investment demand is also boosted by gradual saturation of Polish and Czech market. Prime office and retails yields have maintained the stable rate of 7% and 6.75%, respectively (for Q3 2014).28 The investment volume in 2014 exceeded the record level since 2005 by reaching more than EUR 610 mil. The greatest demand was for industrial real estate and retail space.29 Major projects that had been halted due to the real estate crisis have now been jumpstarted again, and many new projects were announced. The growth was accelerated by demand for apartment real estate as retail mortgages hit record low rates and by increased prior-construction apartment sales, especially in the capital, although housing real estate prices have been stagnant here.30

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

Regional Trends on the Real Estate Market

The Slovak real estate market in 2015 is not likely to beat the year 2014 but the volume of transactions should reach EUR 300 to 400 mil., with the key drivers being logistics parks, large foreign developers, and transactions in retail shopping malls and office buildings. Demand was strong also for new projects on the housing market, especially in Bratislava, which drove land prices up.31 The performance of the regional real estate market will depend on the stability of demand, which is impacted by macroeconomic development, the job market development, income growth, and access to bank financing.

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

Market Risks

Business Cycle

Current operations of the Group are focused in the Slovak, Czech and Polish market, although majority of the Group's clients come from the whole CEE region, and thus the Group's operations are mainly dependent on the level of economy of the Slovak and Czech Republic and countries of the CEE region. Majority of TMR's revenues depend on the number of visitors to TMR's resorts and hotels. The vacation choices of TMR's clients also depend on the business cycle of the economy, each country's economic growth, and the level

of their discretionary income, with the latter two highly correlated (see the Graph below). Development of such macroeconomic factors is an external risk for TMR. Since the majority of visitors to TMR's resorts and hotels come from various countries, each of which has its own unique macroeconomic profile, operations of TMR can be heavily affected by worsening of the economic situation on these markets. The risk of a downward business cycle is partially managed by reasonable pricing strategies and effective marketing campaigns on the relevant target markets (see Strategy).

Seasonality

TMR's business model is primarily seasonal, although TMR's strategy involves building and promoting allyear vacation destinations. The busiest months are from January through March, especially in the number of skiers, and July and August in the leisure parks and the Vysoké Tatry resort. Management is continuously working on attracting visitors in the off-season, e.g. by adding snowmaking guns, running vibrant marketing campaigns, offering bundled stay packages, and by organizing events in the resorts and hotels. Besides the

Risk Factors and Risk Management

Weather

The number of TMR's visitors also depends on a successful winter season, i.e. on favorable weather conditions in terms of abundance of natural snow and temperatures below zero degrees Celsius. TMR manages the risk of low snowfall with the alreadymentioned snowmaking facilities. In the winter season 2014/15 TMR's snow coverage by snowmaking facilities in Slovakia was 50 km. The extensive scope of coverage by technical snowmaking gives TMR an absolute advantage among competitors in Slovakia in case of shortage of natural snow. Historically, the Low Tatras area has had an average of 80 cm of snow during the winter season and the High Tatras 85 cm. Drier winters may increase the cost of snowmaking. On the other hand, warmer weather may hinder the snowmaking, since freezing temperatures are needed, and it may reduce the

scope of skiing area. At the same time, the resorts are located in a mountainous area with a generally colder climate. Also, in comparing with other Slovak mountain resorts, TMR's resorts have start and terminal cableway stations at the highest altitudes. The Polish SON resort, on the other hand, has an advantage in facing north and towards northwest winds. Warm thermal water in Tatralandia partially offsets the cold weather effects, but Tropical Paradise in Tatralandia eliminates dependence on warm weather completely. As for the summer season in the mountain resorts, favorable weather in the summer months is essential for hiking tourists.

Competition

The Group's results also depend on how successfully the Group deals with competition. In the primary segment of Mountains and Leisure, specifically in Mountain Resorts TMR competes for visitors on domestic oligopolistic markets in Slovakia, Poland and the Czech Republic, with the position of a leader in terms of size and the range of services. On the European market the Group faces monopolistic competition with a large number of competitors that provide a wide supply for visitors.

Base & Summit Elevation of Slovak Ski Resorts

TMR utilizes its high quality services, massive capital investments in resort development, reasonable prices in comparing to alpine resorts, patriotism, and locality with the goal of attracting visitors. Moreover, TMR capitalizes on its competitive advantage of natural monopoly in terms of the strategic location of its key resorts in the Tatras in the highest mountain range in the region to the East and North. In the Leisure Parks subsegment TMR is also among the top players in the local market of aquaparks, although visitation of aquaparks also depends on the travel distance for the given visitor. Among theme parks Silesian Amusement Park is one of two top players in the region. Partially, TMR manages this type of risk with marketing tools, by utilizing its tangible and intangible assets, such as its strategic position in the Tatras mountain range, and by a well-defined corporate strategy described in the Strategy section.

Occupancy and Average Daily Rate

The Group's profitability also depends on the occupancy rate of its own hotels and lodging facilities in the resorts. TMR actively works with local lodging operators in marketing the resorts in order to increase occupancy and consequently the number of resort visitors. TMR hotels' results depend on the occupancy rate and average daily

rate per room (ADR). To increase these indicators it is essential for TMR to invest heavily into development and renovation of its lodging facilities. Besides aggressive marketing activities for peak seasons, TMR actively works to increase occupancy and ADR also during the off-season by marketing conference space to corporate clientele, offering special seasonal or weekend lodging packages in conjunction with events in the hotels or resorts, e.g. live cooking show, romantic spa weekends, serving "brain food" for corporate clientele, etc.

Real Estate Market

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

Risk Factors and Risk Management

Financial Risks

The value of the investment in Melida a.s., which operates the Špindlerův Mlýn resort, is converted from Czech crowns into euros.

Interest Rates

Exchange Rates Volatility of exchange rates in relation to euro is an external risk that affects the Group's revenues because majority of TMR's foreign clients come from countries outside of Eurozone- the Czech Republic, Poland, Ukraine, Russia, etc, therefore their travel choices are impacted by currency movements. Appreciation of euro in respect to Polish Zloty, for instance, negatively impacts the number of visitors from Poland although during the winter season 2014/2015 Polish Zloty showed only a minor depreciation in respect to euro. Czech Crown did not show major volatility in respect to euro, and Russian Rubble continued to move downward throughout the winter due to the current geopolitical unrest, with an improvement starting in February till the beginning of summer. Investments into the resorts in terms of technology, equipment, renovation, and procurement of inventory were settled in euros and Polish zloty. Investments settled in Polish zloty are thus exposed to volatility of exchange rates. Volatility of interest rates may have a direct impact on the value of the Group's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The extent of this risk is equal to the amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, where the interest rate at maturity or at the time of a rate change is different from the current interest rate. The period of a fixed rate for a financial instrument therefore reflects the risk for fluctuations in interest rates. The Group's loan portfolio during 2014/15 consisted mostly of short- and long-term bank debt with fixed and variable rates based on 1-month or 3-month EURIBOR rates and 3-month WIBOR rates. The Group considers the variable interest rate to manage the interest rate risk automatically. In case of economic expansion, EURIBOR grows, but at the same time economic performance of the population grows, and the Group is more profitable. In case of economic recession, it is the exact opposite. Besides bank debt, in 2013/14 the Group has issued two tranches of senior and junior bonds in the face value of EUR 180 mil with payment of regular fixed coupon. Loans granted by the Group earn interest with fixed interest rates, thus the Group mitigates the

EURIBOR rates (%)3

risk of interest rate fluctuations downward. Exposure to this risk is detailed in Consolidated Financial Statements, items 20, 27, 34.

Credit Risk

The Group is primarily exposed to risk with trade receivables, receivables from leasing, other receivables, advances and loans granted. The extent of this risk is expressed in the book value of assets on the balance sheet. Book value of receivables, credits, and loans represent the highest possible accounting loss that would have to be accounted for in the event of counterparty's default- counterparty will fail to fully meet their contractual obligations and all guarantees and warrants would have nil value. Therefore, this value significantly exceeds the expected losses in the reserve for unredeemable receivables. The extent of the risk exposure is detailed in Consolidated Financial Statements, items 20, 34.

Liquidity

Liquidity risk arises in the general financing of the Group's activities and financial positions. It includes the risk of being unable to finance assets at an agreed maturity and interest rate and inability to liquidate assets at a reasonable price in a reasonable time frame. Individual segments in the Group use different methods of managing liquidity risk. The Group's management focuses on managing and monitoring liquidity. In order to manage liquidity, in 2009 the management changed the accounting year for the financial year ending on October 31. In the first half of its financial year the Group has the winter season representing 60% of the Group's income. According to the development in the first half-year, the Group is able to affect income and expenses well in advance, to keep sufficient liquidity. The seasonality in the resort of Vysoké Tatry is balanced also by a strong summer season in this resort, and it provides more stable liquidity throughout the year. Payment of coupons on two tranches of bonds in total of EUR 180 mil. adds to the liquidity risk. Nevertheless, the increasing operating income for 2014/15 comfortably enabled meeting the Group's debt service despite the high level of debt. The extent of the risk exposure is detailed in Consolidated Financial Statements, item 34.

Bonds

TMR issued bonds in 2013/14 in total of EUR 180 mil. By issuing the bonds, TMR significantly increased its level of debt. At the same time, by decreasing share capital from EUR 221 mil. to EUR 47 mil. as of 22-10-2013, TMR's capital structure changed considerably in terms of the debtto-equity ratio. The change of this ratio may cause TMR difficulties in obtaining other external financing in the future to finance future investments into its resorts or acquisitions. In case these difficulties in obtaining further financing should occur, TMR's growth rate may slow down. Currently, it is not certain whether the Group will need or will be able to obtain external financing, or whether external debt will be obtained under favorable conditions. Inability to receive or delay in receiving further external debt as well as financing terms, which differ from assumptions, may have a major negative impact on the operations, market position, sales, financial performance and financial outlook of the Group. For more information see Consolidated Financial Statements, item 31.

Operating Risks

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

Safety

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

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

Risk Factors and Risk Management Risk Factors and Risk Management

IT Security

The Group's business activities substantially depend on IT systems- ticket sales platforms (interconnected in ski resorts because of universal ski passes); on lift turnstiles; cableway equipment; and in shops, restaurants, and hotels. Therefore, the Group takes extraordinary measures to mitigate the risk of break-down with high quality software and hardware components and a strong IT support in order to be able to operate under contingency mode.

Capital Investments

The first pillar of TMR's corporate strategy is based on organic growth through capital investments into its resorts and hotels. Implementation of this strategy requires major capital. During past nine years (including 2014) TMR had invested around EUR 206 mil. into development of its resorts. Each investment project is carefully analyzed under different scenarios. Despite this fact, there is risk that some of the ongoing or planned projects may be less profitable than previously planned, or even at loss. Unprofitable investments may negatively impact the operations, market position, sales, financial performance, and financial outlook of TMR.

Acquisitions

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

Environmental Issues

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

all environmental regulations, although development of the recently acquired SON resort in Poland still needs to undergo the EIA process.

The number of visitors to Mountain Resorts1 increased to 1.930 mil. (1.512); Leisure parks recorded 777 thous. (598) visitors

The results of the past financial year 2014/15 were positively impacted by a successful winter season in terms of the season's length and weather favorable for winter sports and also by a good summer season as opposed to the previous summer. We observed increases in skier days in the winter season as well as in the number of visitors to the resorts and leisure parks in the summer. The higher visit rate and visitor spending were the key drivers of the double digit percentage revenue increase. Moreover, the long-lasting impact of the massive CAPEX projects of development of the Tatra resorts and hotels from prior periods totaling EUR 200 mil. as of 2014 was reflected in the Group's results also in the last year and justified an increase of ticket prices. Besides higher average revenue per visitor in the resorts, TMR managed to increase visitor spending also on ancillary services such as Dining and Sports Services & Stores, thus the share of these segments on the Group's total revenues increased again.

TOTAL REVENUES AND INCOME

Total Revenues

In the prior year, the Group's total consolidated revenues reached EUR 70.915 mil. (56.309), an increase of 25.9% and 21.1% like for like. Thereof, operating revenues amounted to EUR 69.991 mil. (55.934) and the rest, i.e. EUR 924 thous. (375) was other operating income. Revenues were positively influenced by higher visit rate in the resorts, aquapark, higher ski pass prices, and thus, also by higher average revenue per visitor in the resorts, dining, and stores, as well as a greater average daily room rate and higher average occupancy in Hotels.

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

Another TMR's key financial performance indicator - EBITDA - reached EUR 24.410 mil. (18.411); which means an increase of 32.6%. On the like-for-like basis EBITDA improved by 41.0%2 . Cost of sales increased by 19.3%, and personnel and operating costs were up 18.1%. The rise in personnel and operating costs was caused mainly by the acquisition of Silesian Amusement Park and by the operation of the SON resort in the first winter season under TMR. Operating profitability ratio (EBITDA margin) reached 34.4% (32.7). The improvement of EBITDA margin is a result of continuous cost optimization and high fixed costs that do not grow in direct proportion to revenues.

Items with Impact on Comparability and Operating Performance

Comparability with prior period is influenced by the fact that consolidated revenues for the first time include the results of the SON resort's winter season results and results of Silesian Amusement Park from the start of its operation under TMR - from May 2015 - with the total impact on revenues in the amount of EUR 2.711 mil. and on EBITDA in the amount of EUR 44 thous. In the yearover-year comparison excluding the impact of SON and Silesian Amusement Park and excluding one-off items of 2013/14 revenues increased +21.1% and EBITDA +41.0%.

Depreciation and Amortization

The depreciation and amortization maintained almost the same level at EUR 13.298 mil. (13.317).

Financial Activity

Interest income of EUR 1.403 mil. (1.475) mainly stemmed from loans granted, earning fixed interest rates (see Consolidated Financial Statements, item 20). Interest expense rose to EUR 11.072 mil. (7.766); they include mainly loan expenses and expenses of the issued bonds (see Consolidated Financial Statements, item 12). Income from financial instruments, net reached a loss of EUR -1,566 thous. (-280) due to a negative revaluation of the 19% share in Melida a.s. (see Consolidated Financial Statements, item 3d, 13).

Taxes

Payable income tax was EUR -16 thous. (0). Total income tax was recognized in the amount of EUR -628 thous. (591).

Net Income

The Group recognized a net consolidated loss in the amount of EUR -751 thous. (683). Profit attributable to owners of the parent company amounted to EUR -677 thous. (703). EPS was EUR -1.101 (0.105). Total comprehensive income after accounting for currency translation differences and revaluation of available-for-sale securities amounted to EUR -1.250 mil. (0.568). the parent company reported a net profit of EUR 19 thous. (-225).

Financial Performance Review for the Year

1 Excludes the visitors of Skiareál Špindlerův Mlýn in the Czech Republic 2

KEY EVENTS OF THE YEAR

The positive financial results can be attributed to the diversified business model and following of the corporate strategy, under which the Company took the following actions:

Capital Investments

At the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in April 2015 the Board of Directors presented an investment plan for the recently acquired Silesian Amusement Park for the period of five years with the total budget of EUR 30 mil. These investments include implementation of a new theme and design, purchase of new attractions, enhancement of green parts, sidewalks, and the entrance hall, development of F&B facilities, expansion of parking, and modernization of other infrastructure. Implementation of the plan started during the year, and first new attractions were being constructed.

Under the project of modernization of the Polish SON resort during the year management continued in obtaining necessary permits for investments into infrastructure.

The Group initiated the realization of real estate investment projects Chalets Jasná Otupné and Hotel Pošta. Both projects represent development projects designated for sale or operation. During the observed

period nine chalets were built, five of which TMR will be operating for their owners. Other CAPEX were aimed at minor operating investments into enhancement of ski trails and services in the resorts and hotels. The total budget for realized investments of the calendar year 2015 came to EUR 6 mil.

Loyalty Program

TMR continued in its active sales strategy also through direct marketing and building its loyal client base within the GOPASS program. GOPASS enables TMR clients to purchase TMR products and services online at special rates and by using its services in the resorts and hotels to earn loyalty points, as well. The points can be then applied against future purchases. Before the winter season 2014/15 GOPASS was launched in the Czech Špindlerův Mlýn resort, too. As of the end of reported period, there were more than 300 thous. members registered in the program, whilst 144 thous. new members registered.

Under the loyalty program GOPASS TMR launched the Ski Challenge campaign, aimed to motivate clients to ski as many kilometers during the season as possible. Our most successful skier skied during the winter season over 4,142 km in our resorts during 101 skier days.

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

The GOPASS loyalty program has succeeded in the prestigious international Loyalty Awards. It was announced the winner of three categories in London: The best loyalty program of the year in the travel sector (airlines, hotels, destinations); The best loyalty program of the year in Central and Eastern Europe; and the Best Customer Relationship Management (CRM) in a loyalty program for Direct Marketing.

Acquisitions and Expansion

In December 2014 TMR also started a cooperation with the Gino Paradise Bešeňová aquapark in terms of consulting services in advertising, marketing, PR, sales promotion, regional product development, and other areas.

In April TMR agreed to acquire a 75% share in Silesian Amusement Park (Śląskie Wesołe Miasteczko) near the Polish town of Chorzów from the Polish company WPKiW S.A. TMR committed to invest PLN 120 mil. (EUR 30 mil.) into modernization of the park in next five years. On May 1, 2015 TMR started to operate Śląskie Wesołe Miasteczko. TMR is entering into a special purpose vehicle company (SPV), SLASKIE WESOLE MIEASTECZKO Sp. z o.o., which owns and operates the park. TMR gains a 75% share and the management control in the SPV for PLN 30 mil., the selling company WPKiW S.A. owns the remaining 25% share. Following the successful completion of the investment plan after five years TMR will be able to exercise an option to buy the remaining 25% from WPKiW S.A. The shares transfer should be settled in the following couple of months. The proceeds from the purchase of the share will be used to finance new investments, whilst SLASKIE WESOLE

MIEASTECZKO Sp. z o.o. will commit to pay rent of PLN 1.4 mil. (EUR 330 ths.) for the land during the first five years (EUR 1 mil. thereafter, for the whole 25-year term).

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS (KPIs)

Mountains and Leisure4

Relatively favorable conditions for winter sports in the winter season 2014/15 with abundance of snowfall and majority of temperatures below freezing, which enabled snowmaking; a long winter season lasting well past Easter in the second half-year 2014/15; and a relatively warm and sunny summer - these all factors contributed to a higher visit rate. Mountain Resorts, including Štrbské Pleso and SON, recorded a total of 1.930 mil. (1.512) visitors/ skier days , whereas on a likefor-like basis the visit rate just in the Tatra resorts increased 17.7%. Leisure Parks including Silesian Amusement Park observed 777 thous. (598) visitors, whilst Tatralandia alone welcomed 9.4% more guests than the year before.

Average revenues per visitor increased mainly in the Tatra resorts, by 12.9% to EUR 14.38 (12.74) as a result of increased visit rate and higher ski pass prices in the resorts on average by EUR 2 for one-day tickets. Average revenues per visitor in Leisure Parks reached EUR 11.60 (12.04), whereas likefor-like the average revenue in Tatralandia rose by 0.5%. The resort clients spent more in dining facilities on and off the slope and in Tatralandia, and they improved the average revenues by 16.7% to EUR 4.12 (3.53). Sports Services & Stores, which largely depend on performance of the resorts, grew in average revenues per visitor to EUR 1.48 (1.16).

The Aquapark subsegment was renamed Leisure Parks due to the takeover of operations of Silesian Amusement Park from May 2015. The total visit rate is measured by the number of entry passes sold in the aquapark and for cableways in the summer season and by the number of skier days in the winter season, i.e. a person visiting a mountain resort at any time of day or night, for the purpose of skiing, snowboarding or other type of downhill run. For example, one 4-day ticket means four skier days in mountain resorts, including Štrbské pleso, co-operated by TMR and the owner of the resort.

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

Hotels

The weighted average occupancy of the TMR hotel portfolio increased to 54.8% (51.2) with 694 (696) rooms. The hotels were occupied to full capacity during peak periods of the New Year and the 'Golden Week' (24.12.-6.1.) despite a drop in Russian-speaking visitors. The decrease in visitors from Russia (by half) and Ukraine was compensated by Polish, Slovak, and Czech guests. Also thanks to the long winter season and a higher visit rate in the resorts, the average daily room rate (ADR) in the weighted average increased to EUR 62.36 (61.09).

FINANCIAL OPERATING RESULTS

Mountains and Leisure

Thanks to a favorable summer weather and a long winter with abundant snowfall and temperatures below freezing the main segment of Mountains and Leisure, which includes subsegments of Mountain Resorts, Leisure Parks, Dining,

and Sports Services & Stores, recorded a 28.8% growth in revenues year-over-year to reach EUR 52.951 mil. (41.124). On a like-for-like basis excluding the impact of the SON resort and Silesian Amusement Park the segment recorded a 22.2% growth. The revenues of the main segment make up 74.7% of the Group's total operating revenues. Thanks to the growing visit rate and average revenue per visitor all the subsegments reported a revenue growth. Mountain Resorts were up 27.9% (21.3% excluding SON). Leisure Parks improved revenues by 20.0% (+4.9% excluding Silesian Amusement Park); Dining reported a 34.6% growth; whilst Sports Services & Stores were up 47.0%. The main segment's strongest quarter in terms of revenues, was the second quarter (February - April) thanks to a relatively better snow conditions in the second half of the winter season and thanks to spring break. The next most successful quarter was the fourth quarter (August - October), i.e. the peak of the summer. Operating profit before interest, tax and depreciation (EBITDA) increased year-over-year by 41.9% to EUR 19.669 mil. (13.860) and by 41.6% like-for-like, which means that operating profitability measured by EBITDA margin reached 37.2% (33.7).

Mountain Resorts

Within the main segment of Mountains and Leisure, Mountain Resorts is the strongest subsegment in terms of revenues, with a 42.5% (41.8) share in total revenues. Its revenues come mainly from sale of ski passes in resorts Jasná Nízke Tatry, Vysoké Tatry, and SON6. Other revenues come from leases of billboards and other advertising space and from marketing events in the resorts and from fees for management consulting services to the Špindlerův Mlýn resort. Thanks to the successful winter and summer season 2014/15 and the first winter operation of the SON resort by TMR the Group achieved a 27.9% revenue growth in Mountain Resorts in total of EUR 30.118 mil. (23.552) and a 21.3% like-for-like growth excluding the SON resort. The revenue growth was achieved thanks to several factors. The successful winter and summer season 2014/15 attracted more visitors to the resorts, and clients were spending more on average also due to ski pass prices on average higher by EUR 2 (for one-day tickets). The higher prices of ski passes were justified by capital investments made in prior periods, such as the complex project of interconnecting both sides of Chopok Mountain by three ultra-modern cableways, or expansion of ski trails and snowmaking in both Tatra resorts, and additional parking capacities. The best quarterly revenues in Mountain Resorts were reported in the second quarter (February - April), i.e. in the period covering the Main Season and Spring Skiing with discounted ski pass sales. Online ski pass sale through the GOPASS program, available in resorts Jasná and Vysoké Tatry, increased year-over-year by 194% in the number of skier days sold, and it made up 20% of total ski pass sale in the Tatra resorts. Mountain Resorts' EBITDA increased 58.2% to EUR 12.566 mil. (7.945), and consequently Mountain Resorts reached operating profitability of 41.7% (33.7). On the like-for-like basis EBITDA improved 55.1% excluding the impact of the SON resort. The EBITDA improvement was achieved by continuous cost optimization and due to the revenue growth. Leisure Parks Revenues of Leisure Parks7 come mainly from sale of entry tickets to Aquapark Tatralandia and Silesian Amusement Park (from May 2015) and make up 13.0% (13.6) of total revenues. The revenues for last year grew by 20.0% to EUR 9.207 mil. (7.672). Like-for-like, excluding the impact of Silesian Amusement Park, they improved by 4.9%. Beside the positive impact of Silesian Amusement Park (75% share) on revenues, the increase in revenues was achieved by a growth of visitors in Tatralandia while its average revenue per visitor remained the same. The strongest revenues were reported for the fourth quarter (August - October) thanks to a relatively warm August, even though the all-year concept of Aquaparku Tatralandia generates revenues throughout the whole year. EBITDA improved by 3.2% to EUR 3.988 mil. (3.864) and by 8.3% excluding the impact of Silesian Amusement Park. Leisure Parks' operating profitability fell to 43.3% (50.4) due to costs associated with the acquisition of Silesian Amusement Park and takeover of its operation.

such as New Year and the 'Golden week' (24/12-6/1), and by a longer season than the year before. The decrease in the number for visitors from Russia (by half) and Ukraine during the Golden week was compensated by Polish, Slovak, and Czech guests. EBITDA increased by 35.6% to EUR 4.482 mil. (3.307), corresponding with EBITDA margin of 26.8% (22.8).

Real Estate

The last year's revenues of the Real Estate segment come from lease of Hotel Ski &Fun, Hotel Liptov, Kosodrevina Lodge, and Hotel Slovakia to third parties and from sale of recreational real estate, in the past year mainly from sale of bungalows of Holiday Village Tatralandia. Sale of apartments as part of the project Chalets Jasná Otupné has not been completed as of the end of the reported period. Other real estate projects have not been realized yet. Real Estate revenues make up 1.7% of total revenues and they reached the level of EUR 1.213 mil. (0.653) and EBITDA of EUR 259 thous. (118) with EBITDA margin of 21.4% (18.0).

Dining

Revenues of this subsegment come from the Company's restaurants and après-ski bars in Jasná Nízke Tatry, Vysoké Tatry and Tatralandia. The last year's revenues of this segment make 14.1% (13.2) of total revenues, and its share keeps rising each year. This increasing share is evidence of the lasting trend of growing client demand for ancillary services in the resorts, and therefore, TMR sees further growth potential in this subsegment. The subsegment's strongest revenue quarter was the fourth quarter (August - October). Total revenues of this subsegment reached EUR 10.018 mil. (7.445), which means an increase of 34.6%. Operating profitability of this subsegment reached 23.7% (22.3), with EBITDA growing to EUR 2.379 mil. (1.662). This subsegment's success is partly dependent on success of the resorts, as Dining provides supplementary services in the Mountain Resorts. The increased visit rate in the resorts, higher visitor spending, as well as numerous marketing events during the year contributed to the subsegment's positive results.

Sports Services & Stores

Revenues generated from sports stores, ski schools, ski rent and service in the Mountain Resorts under the Tatry Motion brand and revenues from stores in Aquapark Tatralandia last year

made up a 5.1% (4.4) share in total revenues. Revenues from this subsegment are closely related to the visit rate in Mountain Resorts, so they too increased to EUR 3.608 mil. (2.455). As these supplementary services are used mainly in the winter season, the strongest quarter was the second one (February - April), followed by first quarter (November -January). EBITDA improved by 90.1% to EUR 737 thous. (388). Operating profitability reached 20.4% (15.8).

Hotels

The Group's second largest segment is Hotels, revenues of which make up a 23.6% (25.8) share in total revenues. Hotels ended the financial year with revenues amounting to EUR 16.751 mil. (14.532) - a 15.3% growth. The strongest quarter of this segment was the first one (November - January), closely followed by the second quarter (February - April). Besides the higher average occupancy and higher ADR of the hotel portfolio, the increased Hotels revenues are also attributable to synergic effects with Mountain Resorts and Tatralandia, supported by active marketing, sale and focus on loyal clients. The results were also impacted by full occupancy especially during peak periods, Financial Performance Review for the Year

OUTLOOK

Management expects continuing positive effects stemming from capital investments of prior periods totaling EUR 206 mil. with impact on the next financial year and following periods, in terms of increasing the visit rate, client spending in the resorts, and growing occupancy in the hotels, especially in the off-season. Following the lasting trend of demand for complementary services (described in Market Analysis and Trends), Management expects further growth in the subsegments of Dining and Sports Services & Stores similar to the previous year. All these factors should generate organic growth in the Group revenues and operating profitability. In the short term Management will be focusing on inter-segment synergies, quality management, on increasing the quality of services provided and quality of Human Resources, and on active sales strategy also through the GOPASS program. In the 2015/16 winter season TMR will introduce a new mobile app GOPASS, which will enable easier online shopping for ski passes, even right at cableway entry gates. Through this additional sales channel management expects to grow in e-shop sales. As for significant events, after 32 years the Jasná resort will again host the World Cup in Alpine Skiing, which should boost the popularity of the resort and attract new clients. In the following periods management plans to continue in the projects of modernization of the Polish SON resort and Silesian Amusement Park, which are expected to contribute to sales growth by increasing the visit rate and client spending.

Group's Position at the End of the Year

ENVIRONMENT AND COMMUNITY

TMR owns and operates major tourist resorts mainly in Slovakia and Poland. Majority is located in the area of national parks. The Company concentrates solely on traditional, already urbanized areas, where sports and tourism have been a tradition for decades.

From TMR's point of view protecting fauna and flora is a very important part of ongoing investments, and of continuing development of summer and winter tourism in the Tatras. Every investment is analyzed in terms of impact on the environment.

Impact of Business Activities on Environment

TMR in all of its investment and operational activities cares for environment protection and minimal impact on the natural environment. The Company takes environment into consideration during the course of its business activities and tries to minimize their impact in every segment. TMR's effort is to select services and products in such a way that the impact on the environment is minimal. Moreover, the Company does its best to restrict relatively the use of natural resources and optimize waste production. TMR spreads this attitude towards environment internally among its employees and externally within communities by means of initiatives and events.

The goal of TMR is to conduct business activities with a minimum energy and fuel consumption. With this goal in mind the Company also adapts its capital investments into new cableways. These new cableways are built with the latest energy efficient technologies from top world producers, like Doppelmayr and Leitner. In every segment the Company aims to utilize efficient management of operations at an optimal level of energy consumption, and moreover, the Company consistently works on improving operational efficiency. In addition to the selection of energy efficient cableways TMR also cares for the correct choice of trail-grooming vehicles that have lower emissions and thus decrease the impact on the environment.

Projects of 2014/15

TMR's projects of 2014/15 refer to activities of prior periods, when TMR made an active contribution to restoration of the areas, in which TMR's business activities are performed. The company was also proactive in preparation of educational activities focused on various age groups of the population.

TMR was very active in entering into the process of establishing and development of cooperation with district tourist organizations (DTOs). TMR is a member of three DTOs covering the whole region of the Company's operation. It includes the following DTOs:

  • DTO High Tatras Region
  • DTO Liptov Region
  • DTO Low Tatras South

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

The DTO Liptov Region operated in 2015 with the budget of more than EUR 1.7 mil. It ran several projects to support summer and winter tourism, and to make regional services more attractive - the project Find treasures of Liptov, operation of a ski & aqua bus, Liptovian Star 2015, and launch of the application Liptov. The DTO was active in the project the Cycling Region Liptov - marking of new tracks, posting of information boards, support of cycling by distributing cycling maps, and promotion of cycling tracks and the Liptov region as a "cycling region" in specialized cycling magazines. The key mutual projects included the discount card Liptov Region Card, which more than 100 thous. Liptov tourists applied for in 2015. The organization supported several events (marketing of World Cup in Downhill Skiing, Opening of the summer and winter season in Liptov, LiptovFest, Spartan Race, Riding Easter Egg to Mt. Chopok, Dragon Nights, Tropical Party, and Summer Beach Party). As part of the region support, marketing activities on new markets (Ukraine, the UK, Baltic region) included an online and print campaign and support of new airline connections London - Poprad and Poprad - Riga. The DTO also helped with preparation of promotion material, attended various conventions, workshops, and exhibitions, was active in regular PR, press releases, support of infotours, etc.

Last year the High Tatras' DTO High Tatras Region made a contribution to the common projects in the amount of EUR 960 thous. (membership fees + a EUR 846 thous. grant). The key events included - Tatry Ice Master, Snow Dogs, Tennis ATP Challenger Poprad - Tatry, Venetian Night at Štrbské pleso, Bear Days at Hrebienok, Marmots at the Lake, and construction of Tatry Ice Dome, which was available to visitors from December to March. During this period it was visited by 165 thous. visitors. Common promotion materials were made, such as maps, guides, and an accommodation catalogue. The High Tatras DTO sponsored the entire TATRY Card project. Infotours were

organized for media and for tour operators from Poland, Hungary, Russia, Baltic states, and Great Britain. The DTO attended fairs and exhibitions in the following cities: Warsaw, Krakow, Prague, Budapest, and London. The High Tatras region was also promoted at ITF Slovakiatour under the DTO Northeast Slovakia. Besides other use, the common funds were spent for media campaigns focused on traditional target markets - Slovakia, Poland and the Czech Republic plus new markets: Baltic countries and London. It continued to support marketing of two airline connections London - Poprad and Riga - Poprad. In addition, it contributed to launching of a new connection Warsaw - Poprad. High Tatras Region DTO, with a strong tradition of cross-country skiing spent common funds for treatment of cross-country ski courses and tracks at Štrbské Pleso, Tatranská Lomnica and in the surroundings of Starý Smokovec. The DTO's environmental projects included landscaping of common open spaces and frequently visited parks at Starý Smokovec, Tatranská Lomnica and Štrbské Pleso. A new relax zone was added at Hrebienok. The DTO provided free aqua-ski bus transportation for all visitors during the winter season. During summer months, bike routes were mapped, route markings were renovated and all resulting information was published on the website and in promotion materials. The DTO High Tatras Region was a supporter of great sports events, such as Universiade at Štrbské Pleso - it helped with a camera system; welcome boards in Vysoké Tatry; and information boards at Štrbské Pleso. It contributed to the renovation of the sports arena at Štrbské Pleso. New lockers were purchased for crosscountry skiing fans, and the entrance gate to Štrbské Pleso was upgraded. All DTOs supported their common image magazine for visitors of Tatras named TATRY MAGAZÍN. The magazine provides a lifestyle communication of attractions, events, prominent people and news in the broad Tatra region. Education promoting positive approach to nature is apparent in many of the Company's activities. The key projects focused on such tutorial and educational tasks are projects such as The Treasure of Demian, the Dragon, Tatra Wilderness, Snow Dogs and Bear Days. During summer families with children discovered secrets of the mountains and Demänovská Valley, looking for traces of the Demian, the Dragon. An educational trail for children covering even larger area is presently under construction in High Tatras. The nature trail named Tatry Wild resulted from TMR's cooperation with the State Forests Enterprise of TANAP National Park and the Management of TANAP National Park. This project gradually expands from Tatranská Lomnica, through Hrebienok to Štrbské Pleso. The most attractive part of the project is the eco-mini park Marmot Cave at Skalnaté Pleso - an environment-friendly educational and fun park for children. In June and September 2015 the Green Chopok event took place at Mt. Chopok as a public proposal of people of Liptov for cleaner mountains. The event was attended by primary school students, as well as seniors from a tourist club and mountain fans. Visitors from London, Ostrava, or Jihlava could even be spotted. The activists went through tons of rocks and garbage left from the winter season. The event's positive impact and a great interest from public are the reason that it will take place again next year.

HUMAN RESOURCES

The annual average number of the Company employees for the financial year 2014/15 totaled 1,009 (1,018). This proves that the Company is considered a major and credible employer in the region. The Group's business activity is affected by seasonality, which also impacts the number of job positions filled. The Group hires hundreds of full-time employees and contractors especially before the winter and summer season, which shows efficient human capital management. More than 20% of seasonal workers keep coming back for the following season.

We are employing 60% men and 40% women as an effort to provide equal employment opportunity. TMR gives an employment opportunity to young people, as well, as 32% of core employees belong to the 18-30 age group. Employees up to 40 years old make up 61% of total employees.

The Group focuses on increasing the quality of personnel and its training in order to maintain the level of services provided. The basic goal of the human resources management is employee training, that's why the amount of EUR 65,300 was invested into employee training. It focuses not only on mandatory regulatory training but also varied continuous education.

The goal of the human resources management is to keep growing as a modern company, which cares about the personal growth of its employees and thus prefers internal recruitment in the hiring process.

Within our projects, this past year we focused on systematic measures - Employee evaluation - and we consider it one of the most effective tools for employee motivation and improvement of work performance in the organization.

On 3 November 2010, the Board of Directors declared observance of the Corporate Governance Code in Slovakia. Moreover, on 8 October 2012 the Company declared adherence to the Corporate Governance Code principles for companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. Information on adherence to the codes is available on the Company's website www.tmr.sk/investorrelations/corporate-governance.

As for the Corporate Governance Code for companies in Slovakia, the Company's corporate governance fails to comply with this Code in the following items:

  • I.A.5. The right to elect and to remove members of the Company's bodies:
  • Partly met. The General Meeting elects and removes members of the Supervisory Board and the Audit Committee. The Board of Directors is elected and removed by the Supervisory Board.
  • I.C.1. Irrespective of distribution of powers in the Company, the remuneration strategy and any major amendment thereto should be a separate item in the agenda of the General Meeting:

Partly met. The Company acts in accordance with the Commercial Code and the Articles. The General Meeting approves the Remuneration Rules for members of the Supervisory Board. The Remuneration Rules for members of the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee are approved by the Supervisory Board.

I.C.3. Shareholders should get sufficient information allowing them to properly assess the decision on sharebased remuneration:

Partly met. The Company acts in accordance with the Commercial Code and the Articles. The General Meeting approves the Remuneration Rules for members of the Supervisory Board. The Remuneration Rules for members of the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee are approved by the Supervisory Board.

I.D.3. Shareholders should be encouraged to participate in key decisions regarding corporate governance, such as the nomination and election of members of the Company's bodies. Shareholders should be given the opportunity to express their opinion on the policy of remuneration of members of the Company's bodies and key members of the executive management. The share component (share options) of the remuneration schemes for members of the Company's bodies and employees should be approved by the shareholders:

Partly met. In the scope defined by the valid legal regulations, as part of the discussion regarding the discussed item of the General Meeting's agenda, shareholders have the right to express their opinion either in writing or verbally. This right is unlimited. Nomination and election of members of the Board of Directors is the responsibility of the Supervisory Board.

II.A.4. Obstacles to cross-border voting should be eliminated:

Partly met. The existing deadlines allow responses of both local and foreign shareholders. The Company so far does not allow electronic voting at General Meeting.

IV.A.4. Companies should disclose at least the following basic information:

Not met. The Company does not have any rules in place regarding supplementary pensions or bonuses in case of resignation from office.

IV.A.9. Internal structure of bodies and strategy in the Company's corporate governance, mainly the contents of the Corporate Governance Code, and procedure for implementation:

Partly met. Corporate Governance is based on the Corporate Governance Code in Slovakia, the Ethics Code of TMR, the Articles and the Company's internal guidelines/documented processes in place.

IV.F. The framework of the Company's corporate governance should be supplemented by efficient procedures defining and supporting acquisitions of analyses and advisory services from analysts, traders with securities, rating agencies, etc. These analyses and advisory services, relevant for decision making by investors, should not be charged with conflict of interests, which could impair their integrity:

Not met. The present external advisors in relations with investors are, at the same time, employed by one of the shareholders (J&T Banka, a.s.). However, a conflict of interests, if any, is contractually covered by the "Chinese walls" on the side of the advisors and by the Corporate Ethics Code of advisors acting exclusively in the best interests of the client.

V.E.1. Supervisory Board should also comprise independent members so that they perform efficient monitoring of the management. The Chairman of the Supervisory Board should always be independent:

Partly met. There are three independent members in the Supervisory Board - representatives of the Company employees that are not part of the Company's top management. The Chairman of the Supervisory Board, as an individual and through the companies he owns, holds a significant shareholder stake in the Company and interferes in the management of the Company.

V.E.4.A. Nomination Committee can be comprised of

members of the Supervisory Board, and members of the Board of Directors, and/or management, however, most of its members should be independent members of the Supervisory Board. The key role of the Nomination Committee is to give recommendations regarding the election and removal of members of the Company's bodies and to evaluate the overall structures of the bodies and individual members of the bodies:

Not met. The Company does not have any Nomination Committee in place. Nominations of members of the Board of Directors are the responsibility of the Supervisory Board.

V.E.4.B. The Remuneration Committee should be comprised exclusively of members of the Supervisory Board, most of which should be independent members of the Supervisory Board. The key role of the Remuneration Committee should include submitting proposals and recommendations regarding rules for all forms of remuneration of members of the Board of Directors and/or other key management of the Company, and supervising that remuneration of individuals is in line with the Company's Remuneration Rules:

Partly met. The Company does not have any Remuneration Committee in place. The remuneration of the Board of Directors is the responsibility of the Supervisory Board.

V.E.4.C. The Audit Committee should be comprised exclusively of members of the Supervisory Board and members appointed by the General Meeting, most of which should be independent members of the Supervisory Board. The key role of the Committee should include submitting proposals and recommendations regarding internal monitoring and external audit and the supervision over compliance with legal regulations and recommendations regarding the Company's financial reporting and audits. At least once in six months, the Committee should submit a report to the Supervisory Board, providing information regarding its activities and findings.

Partly met. The Audit Committee is comprised of two members: a member of the Board of Directors and an independent member appointed by the General Meeting.

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

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

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

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

Not met. Even though the Company strives to enable equal employment opportunity and employs 60% men and 40% women, it has not yet prepared and implemented a diversity policy for its statutory bodies and top management, thus such policy is not published on the Company website either. Main criteria for selecting candidates for key positions and statutory bodies are competency and fulfillment of requirements for a given role; not factors such as sex or age.

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

Partly met. The Company tries to publish video recordings from its general meetings if benefit of these recordings is justified in comparing to high costs associated with them and if they fit within the budget for the general meeting.

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

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

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

Not met. None of the Supervisory Board members meets

the criteria of independence referred to in principle II.Z.4. Even though the Company considers three members of the Supervisory Board, elected by the Company employees, as independent, since they hold nonmanagerial roles in the Company, according to the new Best Practices for GPW Listed Companies 2016, they cannot be considered independent.

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

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

  • II.Z.10.2. a report on the activity of the supervisory board containing at least the following information:
  • full names of the members of the supervisory board and its committees;
  • supervisory board members' fulfilment of the independence criteria;
  • number of meetings of the supervisory board and its committees in the reporting period;
  • self-assessment of the supervisory board;

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

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

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

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

Presence of third parties is usually allowed based on the

proposal by the Board of Directors at Annual General Meetings. At the Annual General Meetings in 2015 a proposal was presented by the Board of Directors to allow presence of third parties at the general meeting. This proposal was adopted by the shareholders and third parties were allowed to attend the general meeting. The Company does not exclude a possibility that it will allow attendance of third parties at all general meetings, although such decision would have to be preceded by the approval of the shareholders at the general meeting in the form of change in Articles of Association.

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

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

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

1. Information about the Group

Tatry mountain resorts, a.s. (hereinafter referred to as the "Parent Group" or the "Group") is a joint stock company with the registered office and place of business in Demänovská Dolina 72, Liptovský Mikuláš 031 01. The company was established on 20 March 1992 and was registered in the Commercial Register on 1 April 1992. The Group identification number is 31 560 636 and the Group tax identification number is 2020428036.

The Group is not a member having unlimited liability in other accounting entities.

Starting from 19 November 1993, the Group shares are registered on the Bratislava Stock Exchange; starting from 15 October 2012, on the Warsaw Stock Exchange (WSE), and starting from 22 October 2012, on the Prague Stock Exchange (BCCP). On 22 August 2013, an extraordinary general meeting was held, which decided on a reduction in the share capital of the Group Tatry Mountain Resorts, a.s. from 221 338 ths. EUR to 46 950 ths. EUR, i.e. by 174 388 ths. EUR. Then during 2014, the Group issued two bond issues in the total nominal value of 180 000 ths. EUR, which, starting from 19 February 2014, are admitted to trading on the Bratislava Stock Exchange. See Note. 31 - Bonds issued.

In 2009, the Group decided to change the accounting period from a calendar year to a fiscal year from 1 November to 31 October. Such a change was aimed at making the period more realistic as the Group activity depends on seasonal fluctuations.

On 1 May 2013, the parent company Tatry mountain resorts, a.s. and subsidiaries GRANDHOTEL PRAHA a.s., Interhouse Tatry s.r.o. and Tatry mountain resorts services, a.s, merged. On that day, the company Tatry mountain resorts, a.s. became the successor company, and assumed all legal, trade and other liabilities, as well as the assets of its subsidiaries. All subsidiaries ceased to exist by the merger with the parent company, and then were expunged from the Commercial Register.

As at 31 October 2015 and 31 October 2014, the Shareholders structure of the Group was as follows:

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies

(a) Statement of compliance

The Consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015 have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the EU and in accordance with Act No. 431/2002 Coll. of the National Council of the Slovak Republic on Accounting ("Act on Accounting").

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 22 February 2016.

(b) Basis of preparation

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

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

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

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

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

When preparing the Consolidated financial statements, the Group applied the following International Financial Reporting Standards, amendments to the standards and interpretations as adopted by the EU, which are effective for the accounting period starting 1 November 2014:

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

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, IAS 27 Consolidated Financial Statements, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014; earlier application is possible if the entity applies early also standards IFRS 11, IFRS 12, IAS 27 (2011) and IAS 28 (2011). IFRS 10 introduces a uniform model, to be used for the assessment of control for all investments including entities which are presently regarded as special purpose entities (SPE) within the scope of SIC-12. IFRS 10 introduces new requirements for the assessment of control, which differ from the present requirements defined in IAS 27 (2008). Under the new control assessment model, the investor has power over the investee, if: (1) the investor has exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; (2) is able to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor's return; and (3) there is a connection between the power and the return. The new standard contains reporting requirements and requirements for preparation of consolidated financial statements. Those requirements are taken over from IAS 27 (2008).

Amendments to IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, IAS 27 Consolidated Financial Statements, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, introduces an exception to consolidation requirements under IFRS 10 and requires investment entities that meet certain criteria to measure their investments in controlled entities, as well as investments in associates and joint ventures, at fair value through profit or loss, instead of consolidating them. The consolidation exception is mandatory (i.e., not optional); the only exception are subsidiaries that are considered an extension of the investment entity's investing activities, these subsidiaries have to be consolidated. The amendments also determine disclosure requirements for investment entities.

IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, replaces IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures. IFRS 11 defines two categories of joint arrangements: joint operation and joint venture. Joint operation – an arrangement in which the parties with joint control have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to that arrangement. In respect of its interest in a joint operation, a joint operator must recognize all of its assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, including its relative share of jointly controlled assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses.

Joint venture – an arrangement in which the parties with joint control have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. The option in IAS 31 to account for joint ventures (as defined in IFRS 11) using proportionate consolidation has been removed from IFRS 11.

Under these new categories, the legal form of the joint arrangement is not the only factor considered when classifying the joint arrangement as either a joint operation or a joint venture, which is a change from IAS 31. Under IFRS 11, parties are required to consider whether a Consolidated vehicle exists and, if so, the legal form of the Consolidated vehicle, the contractual terms and conditions, and other facts and circumstances.

IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, requires additional disclosures about significant judgements and presumptions used in determining the nature of interests in a unit of account or arrangements, interests in subsidiaries, joints arrangements and associates and in unconsolidated entities.

Amendments to IAS 27 Consolidated Financial Statements (2011) are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014. IAS 27 (2011) now addresses only the requirements for Consolidated financial statements (preserving the original requirements). The requirements for consolidated financial statements are now addressed in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements.

Amendments to IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (2011) are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014. IAS 28 (2011) replaces IAS 28 Investments in Associates, and prescribes the accounting for investments in associates and the requirements for the application of the equity method when accounting for investments in associates and joint ventures. The standard defines "significant influence" and provides guidance on how to apply the equity method in accounting (including the exemptions of the application of the equity method in some cases). It also defines the method for testing investments in associates and joint ventures for impairment. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of these standards on its financial statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Amendments to IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014. To clarify certain aspects because of diversity in application of the requirements of offsetting, the amendment focuses on four main areas: (1) the meaning of the term "legally enforceable right of set-off"; (2) the application of simultaneous realization and settlement; (3) the offsetting of collateral amounts; (4) the unit of account for applying the offsetting requirements. The amendment is not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's financial position or performance.

Amendments to IAS 36 Impairment of Assets (Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets), effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, clarifies that the scope of recoverable amount disclosures, when the amounts are based on fair value less costs of disposal, is limited to impaired assets. The amendment is not expected to have an impact on the Group's financial position or performance.

Amendments to IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting), effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, provides an exception to the requirement to discontinue hedge accounting in situations where over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives designated in hedging relationships are directly or indirectly novated to a central counterparty (CCP) as a consequence of laws or regulations, or the introduction of laws or regulations. The amendment is not expected to have an impact on the Group's financial position or performance.

IFRIC 21 Levies, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 17 June 2014, is applied with a retroactive effect. An early application is permitted. The interpretation provides guidance on how to identify the obligating event for the recognition of a liability and when to recognize the liability for a levy imposed by a government. The IFRIC identifies the obligating event as the activity that triggers the payment of the levy in accordance with the relevant legislation and as a result of which, the liability to pay levies is recognized in the period in which the obligation event occurs. The liability to pay levies is recognized progressively if the obligating event occurs over a period of time. If an obligation is triggered on reaching a minimum threshold, the liability is recognized when that minimum threshold is reached. The IFRIC explains that and entity does not have a constructive obligation to pay a levy that will be triggered by operating in a future period as a result of the entity being economically compelled to continue to operate in that future period. The amendment is not expected to have an impact on the Group's financial position or performance.

International Financial Reporting Standards that have been issued but are not effective yet As at 31 October 2015, the following International Financial Reporting Standards, amendments to and interpretations of the Standards were issued, which have not become effective yet, and thus were not applied by the Group when compiling these Financial Statements.

Amendments to IFRS 11 Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations beginning on or after 1 January 2016 are to be applied prospectively, with earlier application being permitted. The amendments require that accounting for a business combination is applied to the acquisitions of interests in joint operations that form an enterprise. Accounting for a business combination is also applied to the acquisitions of other interests in joint operations if a joint operator retains joint control. Other acquired interests shall be measured at fair value. Interests in joint operations that were acquired before shall not be measured. The impact of adopted amendments can be assessed only in the year when amendments were applied for the first time as their impact will depend on the acquisition of joint operations that occurred during the accounting period. The Group does not intend to adopt the amendments earlier, so it is not possible to estimate their impact on the financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 1 effective for accounting periods starting on 1 January 2016 or later. Earlier application is permitted. The amendments contain the following five improvements that are closely linked to disclosure requirements contained in the standard. Guidelines on the relevance in IAS 1 have been amended to clarify that immaterial information can distract attention from the useful information; relevance is applicable to the financial statements as a whole; relevance is applicable to each requirement for the disclosure in IFRS. Guidelines on the order of notes (including the accounting methods and accounting principles) have been amended as follows. Formulations which were construed as the requirement for the order of notes to the financial statements shall be deleted from IAS 1 and it shall be clarified that companies have more flexibility in where in the

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

2. Significant Accounting Principles (continued)

financial statements they disclose their accounting methods and accounting principles. The Group does not expect that the amendments will have a significant effect on the presentation of the Group financial statements on the first application.

Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38 Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation (Objasnenie akceptovateľnej metódy odpisovania) effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016 are to be applied prospectively, with earlier application being permitted. Amendments explicitly specify that the revenue-based amortisation method may not be used for Property Plant and Equipment. The amendments introduce a rebuttable presumption that a revenue-based amortisation method for intangible assets is inappropriate. The presumption can be overcome when the revenue and the consumption of economic benefits of the intangible assets "are highly correlated" or when the intangible asset is expressed as a measure of revenue. It is expected that the Amendment will not have a significant effect on the Group financial statements on the first application as the Group does not apply the revenue-based amortisation method.

Amendments to IAS 16 Property Plant and Equipment (Nehnuteľnosti, stroje a zariadenia) and IAS 41 Agriculture (Poľnohospodárstvo) effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, with earlier application being permitted. The amendments bring bearer plants into the scope of IAS 16 Property Plant and Equipment, and not into the scope of IAS 41 Agriculture because their operation is similar to that of manufacturing. The Group does not expect that the amendments will have a significant effect on the financial statements on the first application as the Group has no bearer plants.

Amendments to IAS 19 Defined Benefit Plans: Employee Contributions (Programy so stanovenými požitkami: Príspevky zamestnanca) effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 February 2015. The amendments are applied retrospectively, with earlier application being permitted. Amendments are only relevant for defined benefit plans that contain contributions from employees or from third parties, and comply with certain criteria, specifically, that they are provided in formal conditions of the benefit plan, relate to a service, and are independent of the years of service. When such criteria are complied with, a company can (but need not) account for them as a reduction of cost for services in the period when the related service is provided. The Group does not expect that the amendments will have a significant effect on its financial statements as the Group has no Defined Benefit Plans containing contributions from employees or from third parties.

Amendments to IAS 27 Equity method in the Consolidated financial statements (Metóda vlastného imania v separátnej účtovnej závierke) effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, and are to be applied retrospectively, with earlier application being permitted. Amendments to IAS 27 permit the Group to use the Equity method in the Consolidated financial statements in accounting for investments in subsidiary, affiliated companies and joint ventures. At present, the Group assesses the effect of this standard on the financial statements.

IFRS Annual Improvements

The Improvements bring 10 amendments to 10 standards and consequential amendments to other standards and interpretations. Most of the amendments are to be applied to accounting periods beginning on or after 1 February 2015 or 1 January 2016, with permitted earlier adoption. Further 4 amendments to 4 standards effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015, with permitted earlier adoption. The amendments are not expected to have an impact on the Group's financial statements.

Other International Financial Reporting Standards

The Group has not adopted any other IFRS standards adopted by EU early where adoption is not mandatory at the date of preparation of the financial statements. Where transition provisions give an entity the choice of whether to apply new standards prospectively or retrospectively, the Group has decided to apply the standards prospectively.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

2. Significant Accounting Principles (continued)

(c) Basis of consolidation

i. Subsidiaries

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

ii. Associates

Associates are those enterprises in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies. Significant influence is presumed to exist when a company holds between 20 and 50 percent of the voting rights of another entity. The consolidated financial statements include the Group's share of the recognised gains and losses of associates on an equity accounted basis (equity method) from the day of origin of the significant influence until the day of cessation of the significant influence. Investment in associate is recognised initially at cost. When the Group's share of losses exceeds the carrying amount of the associate, the carrying amount of such an associate is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is discontinued, except to the extent that the Group has incurred obligations in respect of the associate.

iii. Scope of consolidation

The consolidation as at 31 October 2015 includes three companies. The consolidation as at 31 October 2014 included two companies. Three subsidiaries referred to in Note 1 – Information about the Group have prepared their extraordinary financial statements as at 30 April 2013 and were included in the consolidation since that date, i.e. as the date prior to their merger with the parent company. Other companies prepared their financial statements as at 31 October 2015. The list of all companies included in the consolidation is provided in Note 39 – Group entities.

iv. Transactions eliminated on consolidation

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

v. Acquisition method of accounting

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

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

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

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

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

vi. Unification of accounting principles

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

(d) Foreign currency

Foreign currency transactions

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

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

(e) Financial instruments

i. Classification

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

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

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

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

ii. Recognition

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

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

iii. Measurement

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

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

iv. Fair value measurement principles

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

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

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

v. Gain and losses on subsequent revaluation

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

vi. Derecognition

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

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

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

(f) Cash and cash equivalents

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

(g) Inventories

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

(h) Offsetting

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

(i) Impairment

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

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

Loans granted are recognised net of value adjustment for losses on loans. Value adjustments are determined on the basis of the state of the loan and performance of the borrower and the value of any collateral and all third-party guarantees is taken into account.

The recoverable amount of receivables carried at amortised cost is calculated as the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed upon initial recognition of these financial assets). Short-term receivables are not discounted.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

If assets available for sale caused a decrease in fair value recognized directly in equity and if objective reasons exist that prove that there was a decrease in the fair value of the assets, the cumulated loss recognized in equity shall be reported in the profit and loss statement even if the relevant financial asset had not been reversed from the financial position. The amount of loss recognized in the profit and loss statement is the difference between the acquisition cost and the fair value, adjusted for the impairment of the financial asset already recognized in profit and loss. A decrease in fair value of more than 20% of the acquisition cost or a decrease in fair value below the acquisition cost that lasts continuously more than nine months in case of securities investments is considered an impairment.

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

An impairment loss in respect of receivables carried at amortised cost is reversed if the increase in the recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised.

In the case of goodwill, an impairment loss cannot be decreased subsequently.

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

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

2. Significant accounting policies (continued) (j) Property, plant and equipment

i. Owned assets

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

ii. Leasing

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

iii. Subsequent expenditures

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

iv. Depreciation

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

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

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

v. Capitalized borrowing costs

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

(k) Intangible assets

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

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold. Negative goodwill arising on an acquisition is reassessed and any excess remainder of the negative goodwill after the reassessment is recognised in profit or loss. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognised at fair value on the acquisition date if the intangible asset is separable or arises from contractual or other legal rights. Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are recorded at cost net of impairment loss. Intangible assets with a definite useful life are amortized over the useful life and are stated at cost net of accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

ii. Software and other intangible assets

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

iii. Amortisation

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

  • Software 4 5 years
  • Lease contracts 29 years
  • Valuable rights each item uses an individual depreciation plan, based on the estimated useful lives if these assets, valuable rights also

include trademarks which represent non-depreciated assets. The Group uses 6, 7, 8, 12 and 50-year useful lives for its valuable rights.

(l) Investment property

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

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

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

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

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

(m) Provisions

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

i. Long-term employee benefits

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

ii. Short-term employee benefits

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

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(n) Interest income and expense

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

(o) Rental income

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

(p) Income tax

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

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

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

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

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

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

(q) Operative and financial lease payments

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

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

(r) Trade and other payables

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

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(s) Revenues from services rendered

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

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

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

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

Revenues are accrued depending on in which period the services were rendered, excluding revenues from leisure parks, hotel services and restaurant facilities, which are recognised in profit or loss after the service has been rendered. Revenues from services rendered do not include value added tax. They are also net of discounts and rebates (rebates, bonuses, discounts, credit notes and the like).

Since 2012 the Group has been running a loyalty program for its clients – GOPASS. GOPASS enables its clients to earn points for purchase of products and services in its resorts and to redeem these points as discounts from future purchases.

The amount of unredeemed points are recognized as a decrease in sales against revenue time difference, as they are related to promised discounts from future purchases of clients. The Group monitors the value of unredeemed points and revalues it on a regular basis for its recognition in the financial statements.

(t) Dividends

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

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

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

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

Impairment losses on initial recognition as held for sale are recognised in profit or loss even if the revaluation reserve was created. The same applies to gains and losses on subsequent measurements. Gains are not recognised in excess of any cumulative impairment loss.

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets classified as held for sale are no longer depreciated or amortised.

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

(v) Reporting by segments

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

(w) Financial liabilities

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

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

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

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

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

(x) Fair value estimates

The following notes summarise the main methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of financial assets and liabilities referred to in Note 32 – Fair value information:

i. Loans granted

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

ii. Loans and borrowings

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

i. Trade receivables/payables, other receivables and other assets/liabilities

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

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

The compilation of the financial statements according to the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU requires the application of certain significant accounting estimates. It also requires that the management, in the application process of the Group accounting principles, should use its judgement. Therefore, the accounting estimates will be rarely identical with actual figures. Estimates and assumptions carrying a significant risk of causing a material modification of the book value of assets and liabilities in the future accounting period, are described below in the text. Estimates and assumptions are re-evaluated from time to time. If the re-evaluation of accounting estimates only applies to one accounting period, it will be accounted for in that period; if the re-evaluation affects both the present and future accounting periods, it will be accounted for in the period when the re-evaluation occured, and also in the future periods.

(a) Business combinations and purchase price allocation

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

On 14 Apríl 2015 the Group acquired a 70% interest in a Polish company, PS Rozrywka, later renamed Ślaskie Wesole Miasteczko Sp. z o. o. (SWM). The Group paid 6.727 ths. EUR for the 70% inrerest. On 4 August 2015 the Group purchased another 5% interest in the total amount of 723 ths. EUR. SWM is the operator of a theme park in Chorzow, Poland. The fair value adjustment of this business combination was recognized in Consolidated financial statements as of 31 October 2015. Plant, property and equipment and goodwill before the acquisition were revalued. The result of the business combination was goodwill in the amount of 644 ths. EUR. Some items of fixed assets were revalued by the reproductive acquisition cost and some by market approach. The Fair value adjustments resulting from business combinations in the accounting period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015 are summarised in the table below:

Lease
contracts

The adjustment of goodwill of -677 ths. EUR presents a write-off of the local goodwill reported as of the day of acquisition of the subsidiary in the amount of -1.321 ths. EUR and reported consolidated goodwill in the amount of 644 ths. EUR.

On 5 March 2014, the Group acquired a 97% ownership interest in Szczyrkowsky Ośrodek Narciarski S.A. (hereinafter the "SON") seated at Szczyrk, Republic of Poland. SON operates a ski resort in Szczyrk, at the Polish part of the Beskid Mountains. The Group acquired the ownership interest at EUR 7,191,000 and became the major shareholder of SON. The Group's management revalued the acquired assets and liabilities which resulted in the increase in SON's assets. The adjustments were recognised in the consolidated financial statements using the full consolidation method.

The fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities is based on the business plan prepared by the management, the key assumptions, which were the most sensitive factors for determining the fair value, were revenues expected by the management, profitability, weighted average cost of capital used as a discount rate for future cash flows and terminal growth. Expected revenues and profitability were based on other similar resorts of the Group. Projected cash flows used to determine the fair value covered a 5-year period with further extrapolation for following periods. Based on such normalization of cash flows terminal value was calculated with terminal growth of 2.2%. the discount rate used for projected cash flows was calculated as the weighted average cost of capital at 6.5%.

(b) Valuation of Investments in Property

Investments in property are measured at fair value. The fair value of investments in property is determined either by an independent authorized expert or by the management (see the Significant Accounting Principles, Note. l); in both of the cases the valuation is based on current market values and conditions. The fair market value is the estimated value for which the property could be exchanged, on the valuation day, between knowledgeable, willing parties being a prospective seller and a prospective buyer, in an arm's length transaction, after reasonable marketing.

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

In the period between 1.11.2014 and 31.102015, the investments in real property cover three hotels (SKI, Liptov, Kosodrevina) and the accommodation facility Otupné with the aggregate book value of 1 982 ths. EUR (for the period between 1.11.2013 and 31.10.2014, the investments in real property covered four hotels – SKI, Liptov, Kosodrevina, Slovakia and the accommodation facility Otupné with the aggregate book value of 2 693 ths. EUR), which are leased out to third parties that operate them, as well as forest areas and lots of land obtained as an acquisition in 2009 in the book value of 4 572 ths. EUR. Over the course of 2015, the Slovakia Hotel was, based on Group management decision, transferred from investments in property, and is intended for sale. The value of the hotels was estimated by the management in a manner specified above. The value of the land was determined by the management using market prices, and the final value is based on an estimate of the market price per square meter, depending on the type of land and market transactions for similar lots of land.

As at 31 October 2015, the Group management, based on current market conditions, re-valuated the value of investments in property. The result was an increase in the value of the SKI hotel by 188 ths. EUR, and an increase in the value of the Liptov hotel by 40 ths. EUR. Total revaluation of investments in property in 2015, executed with the profit/loss from operations, was a revenue of 228 ths. EUR (2014: revenue of 1 413 ths. EUR).

If the fair value of the portion of investments in property which was determined based on management estimates differs from management estimates by 10%, the book value of investments in property would be higher or lower by 655 ths. EUR in comparison with the amount reported as at 31 October 2015 (as at 31 October 2014: 726 ths. EUR).

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

(c) Goodwill and Impairment Test

As at the date of the financial statements, the Group is required to assess whether there is any indication that its goodwill is impaired. If there is no indication that goodwill may be impaired, the Group shall, according to IAS 36, test goodwill reported from the business combination during the reported accounting period and goodwill reported in prior periods for possible impairment on a yearly basis as at 31 October, i.e. as at the date of compilation of the annual Consolidated financial statements.

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

The impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of CGU to which the goodwill relates (CGU Vysoké Tatry), based on the value in use. The amount is derived from future cash flows estimated by the management. The discount rate used in assessing the fair value was 6.5% for 2015 and 6.5% for 2014 (taking into account the income tax).

The value in use was derived from a business plan prepared by the management. The key prerequisite which was also the most sensitive factor in determining the recoverable amount, was expected revenues assessed by the management, the profit margin ratio (EBIDTA) and the cost of capital used as the discount factor for future net cash flows. Expected revenues as well as the profit margin ratio are based on changes in customer target groups, strengthened marketing and increase in the quality of services rendered.

Projecting of cash flows applied in determining the value in use covers a medium-term period of 5 years and subsequent extrapolation for the next period. Based on such standard level of cash flows, the terminal value was calculated with expected growth of cash flows at 2.2% p.a. (2014: 2.2%). Discount rates applied in the projecting of cash flows were calculated as weighted average cost of capital.

In 2015 and 2014, goodwill was tested within CGU Vysoké Tatry, and the test did not show any reason for asset impairment. See note 3(d). Goodwill acquired by the acquisition in 2015 has not been tested as of 31 October 2015 since the Group Board concluded that the assumptions that were used by revaluation of assets acquired from the business combination in 2015 had not changed significantly.

If as at 31 October 2015, projected EBITDA being part of projected cash flows was lower than 5% in comparison with management estimates, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit in the location of High Tatras would drop by 8 999 ths. EUR. In such case, it would not be necessary to account for the asset impairment or goodwill even at a lower EBITDA reached. If the discount rate increased by 0.5 percentage point in comparison with the management estimate, i.e. its value was 7.00 %, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit for the location of High Tatras would drop by 15 906 ths. EUR. Here again it would not be necessary to account for asset impairment or goodwill even at a higher discount rate.

(d) Asset Impairment At the end of each reporting period, an entity is required to assess whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired

As at the date of the financial statements, the Group is required to assess whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. IAS 36 requires the testing of asset impairment in cases where external or internal indicators would point possible asset impairment.

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

The Group carries on 6 principal activities: running of mountain resorts, leisure parks, restaurant services, sports services and stores, accommodation services and real estate projects, namely in five locations: Jasná (the Low Tatras), in the High Tatras, and in Liptovský Mikuláš, and in Szczyrk and Chorzow in Poland. Each of the locations was assessed by the management as an individual cash-generating unit (CGU). The Group monitors the performance and creates independent budgets for individual cash-generating units. The Group assets were allocated to individual cash-generating units according to the material competence, whereas all assets, i.e. also the Hotels, Catering establishments and Sports services and shops are included in individual cash-generating units, except for Ski lifts and Cableways.

As at 31 October 2015, the Group management having considered the Group asset impairment, did not identify any indicator of possible impairment. For that reason, the asset impairment test was not performed. An impairment test was performed only for the location of High Tatras, as it has assigned Goodwill as specified in Note. 3(c).

As at 31 October 2014, indicators of Group asset impairment were identified as some of principal activities did not reach planned profitability. For that reason, an asset impairment test was performed. Three basic individual cash-generating units were tested as provided above, i.e. the High Tatras Centre, the JASNÁ Low Tatras centre, and the aquapark Tatralandia in Liptovský Mikuláš. The test results did not result in any asset impairment.

Possible impairment is determined by comparing the recoverable amount and the book value of cash-generating unit.

The recoverable amount was determined based on the value in use. The value in use was derived from the value of future cash flows adjusted to the present value by discounting. In 2015, the discount rate applied in asset impairment test was 6.5% (2014: 6,5%), taking into account the income tax. The discount rate was calculated using the method of weighted average cost of capital.

The value in use of each cash-generating unit was determined based on projected cash flows derived from a long-term financial plan prepared by the management. Financial plans were prepared for a period of next five years. Projected cash flows for the next period of five years were derived from such financial plans.

In such a following period, it is expected to reach such operating and financial performance which is considered as sustainable over the long term by the management. Based on such a standard level of cash flows, the terminal value was calculated with projected growth of cash flows at 2.2% p.a. in the test conducted as at 31 October 2015 (2014: 2,2%).

In addition to the discount rate, mainly planned rates and attendance are the key prerequisites that most influence the value in use. Most of projections are based on historical experience in addition to planned facts associated with new investments (such as transport capacity of new cable-ways). In the estimates of future prices, the management also considered the prices of comparable resorts, hotels and leisure parks in other countries, reflecting differences in the customer target group.

If as at 31 October 2014, projected EBITDA being part of projected cash flows was lower by 5% in comparison with management estimates, the value in use for the individual cash-generating unit in the location of Jasná (the Low Tatras) would be lower by 9 831 ths. EUR; for the location of High Tatras it would drop by 7 444 ths. EUR, and for the location of Liptovský Mikuláš (Tatralandia) it would be lower by 4 980 ths. EUR. In neither case would it be necessary to post an asset impairment even at a lower EBIDTA indicator. If the discount rate increased by 0,5 percentage point in comparison with the management estimate, i.e. its value was 7.00 %, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit for the location of Jasná (the Low Tatras) would be lower by 14 243 ths. EUR, for the location of High Tatras would drop by 12 062 ths. EUR, and for the location of Liptovský Mikuláš (Tatralandia) would be lower by 7 765 ths. EUR. In neither case would it be necessary to post an asset impairment even at a higher discount rate.

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

(e) Financial Instruments at Fair Value

The fair value of financial instruments is determined based on:

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

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

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

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

In 2015, the Group acquired an investment in the company CAREPAR, a.s. in the value of 15 ths. EUR.

Within Level 3, the Group reports mainly financial investment (a share of share capital of 19%) in MELIDA, a.s. in the amount of 154 ths. EUR (as at 31 October 2014: 1 869 ths. EUR) and other financial investments priced through profit/loss from operations as stated in Note. 24 Financial Investments. On 6 November 2012, the company MELIDA, a.s. concluded an agreement for the leasing of an enterprise with the company SKIAREÁL Špindlerův Mlýn, a.s., which was assessed as a business combination under the Group management for the needs of consolidated financial statements.

The fair value of this financial property was estimated, in 2014, by the Group management using the discounted cash flow method, with the application of input from the business plan and of cash flow estimates. The business plan and cash flow estimates were consistently reviewed before application by Group management. The discount rate applied in the valuation of such financial assets was 7.02%, in 2014. The main preconditions that were used in the valuation, were estimated cash flows and discount rate. On 9 December 2015, the Group sold its entire 19% share of securities in MELIDA a.s. in the total amount of 154 ths. EUR. For such reason the Group revalued the value of securities of MELIDA a.s. to a value under the contract concluded as at 31 October 2015, the result of which was a negative difference in valuation of 1 716 ths. EUR.

5. Increase and Decrease of Shares in Companies (continued)

As shown in the table above, the acquisition of the subsidiary SON caused the Group to recognize negative goodwill of EUR 1,569 thous. The former owner of the resort did not have financial strength necessary to ensure further growth and stability of the resort. This was the reason why the Group managed to acquire the subsidiary at a lower cost than its market value. Since the acquisition date till 31 October 2014 the subsidiary did not recognize any revenues. In case the Group had acquired the subsidiary at the beginning of the financial year, the Group's revenues for 2014 would total EUR 57,074 thous. and loss of EUR 107 thous.

34. Information on Risk Management

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

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

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

Credit risk

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

As at 31 October 2015, the Group was exposed to the following credit risk:

Liquidity risk

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

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

As at 31 October 2015, the Group was exposed to the following liquidity risk:

The Book value of Other receivables contains mainly advance payments of 19 451 ths. EUR, which shall not be paid in cash, but by a transfer of shares.

Currency risk

Due to the acquisition of subsidiaries in the Republic of Poland during 2014 and 2015, the Group is primarily exposed to the risk of changes in the exchange rate of Polish Zloty against the EUR. The management monitors regularly whether there is a large difference between foreign currency liabilities and receivables. As at 31 October 2015, the Group reported property, plant and equipment in the amount of 8 577 ths. EUR, and intangible assets in the total amount of 7 063 ths. EUR, other assets of 523 ths. EUR, loans received of 1 556 ths. EUR, deferred tax liability of 2 019 ths. EUR and other liabilities of 570 ths. EUR denominated originally in the Polish Zloty. The other Group assets and liabilities are denominated in euros.

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

Sensitivity analysis

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

Effect on the portfolio

In ths. EUR 2015 2014
PLN 14 26

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

Interest risk

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

34. Information on Risk Management (continued)

As at 31 October 2015 and as at 31 October 2014, the Group has the following assets and liabilities linked to interest rates:

Assets - -
Liabilities 30 218 43 708

Sensitivity analysis for instruments with a variable interest rate

Change by 100 basis points in interest rates would have the following effect on the profit/loss from operations:

In ths. EUR Profit (loss)
100 bb growth 100 bb decline
31 October 2015
Instruments with variable interest rate -91 466
Cash flow sensitivity -91 466
In ths. EUR Profit (loss)
100 bb growth 100 bb decline
31 October 2014
Instruments with variable interest rate -106 223
Cash flow sensitivity -106 223

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

Operational risk

Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from any fraud, unauthorised activities, failures, errors, inefficiency or failure of systems. The risk is created in all Group activities and faced by all Group companies. Operational risk also includes the risk of legal disputes.

The aim of the Group is to manage the operational risk to prevent any financial losses and detriment to the Group reputation within the cost-efficiency of cost spent on achieving this objective, while avoiding any measures preventing initiatives and creativity.

The Group management has key responsibility for the implementation of inspections related to the operational risk management.

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

34. Information on Risk Management (continued)

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

35. Related Parties

Identification of related parties

As provided in the following overview, the Group has relations of a related party with respect to its shareholders having significant influence in the Group, and with respect to other parties, as at 31 October 2015 and 31 October 2014 or during the period between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015 and 1 November 2013 and 31 October 2014:

  • (1) Companies controlling jointly or having significant influence on the accounting entity and its subsidiary and associate companies
  • (2) Jointly controlled companies in which the Group is a partner (3) Associates
  • (4) The members of company top management or Group shareholders (see also Note. 10 Personnel Expenses)

Information on remuneration of the members of statutory bodies and of top management is stated in Note. 10 – Personnel Expenses. Besides Personnel Expenses the Group has no other related party transactions.

Since none of the shareholders has a shareholding in the Group exceeding 20% or any significant influence, the shareholders are not provided as related parties, and the above stated transactions or balances are not understood as transactions with related parties.

36. Subsequent Events

On 9 December 2015, the Group sold its entire 19% share of securities of MELIDA a.s. in the total value of 154 ths. EUR to CAREPAR, a.s.. For such reason the Group revalued the value of securities of MELIDA a.s. to the actual market value as at 31 October 2015, the result of which was a negative difference in valuation of 1 716 ths. EUR created to the Group. The reason of this transaction was a long-planned change in the shareholding structure of Melida a.s. so that mutual relations among Melida a.s. shareholders are optimized.

On 16 December 2015, the Group paid a coupon from the bond TMR I in the amount of 1 571 ths. EUR.

On 2 February 2016, the Group paid a coupon from the bond TMR II in the amount of 6 600 ths. EUR.

37. Capital Commitments and Capital Management

During 2014, the Group issued two bond issues (see Note. 31 – Bonds issued) in the total nominal value of 180 000 ths. EUR, which, starting from 19 February 2014, are admitted to trading on the Bratislava Stock Exchange. Both of the issues are associated with regular payment of the coupon which is provided by the Group from its own resources.

The Group management proceeds to capital management in order to ensure sufficient amount of resources for planned investments in that period for which investments were planned.

Before the date of merger with the parent company, no external requirements for capital management are linked either to the Group or to its subsidiaries.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a period between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015

Over the course of the period between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015, no changes occured in the Group management approach to capital management.

38. Contingent Assets and Contingent Liabilities

With respect to that many areas of Slovak law on taxation have not been sufficiently ascertained in practice, there is uncertainty in how tax offices will apply them. It is not possible to quantify the level of this uncertainty and it will only cease to exist when legal precedents or official interpretations of the relevant bodies are available.

On 31 October 2007, the Group signed a contract on the right of lien in an enterprise, on receivables and movables in favour of the creditor Tatra banka, joint stock company, the subject of which is a lien on liabilities for the entire scope of liabilities, which are posted in the balance sheet as at 31 October 2014 and as at 31 October 2015.

The Group has initiated several legal proceedings. The maximum amount of compensation in all legal proceedings can be up to 1 091 ths. EUR and accessions thereof.

1. Information about the Company

Tatry mountain resorts, a.s. (hereinafter referred to as the "Company") is a joint stock company with the registered office and place of business in Demänovská Dolina 72, Liptovský Mikuláš 031 01. The company was established on 20 March 1992 and was registered in the Commercial Register on 1 April 1992. The Company identification number is 31 560 636 and the Company tax identification number is 2020428036.

The Company is not a member having unlimited liability in other accounting entities.

Starting from 19 November 1993, the Company shares are registered on the Bratislava Stock Exchange; starting from 15 October 2012, on the Warsaw Stock Exchange (WSE), and starting from 22 October 2012, on the Prague Stock Exchange (BCCP). On 22 August 2013, an extraordinary general meeting was held, which decided on a reduction in the share capital of the Company Tatry Mountain Resorts, a.s. from 221 338 ths. EUR to 46 950 ths. EUR, i.e. by 174 388 ths. EUR. Then during 2014, the Company issued two bond issues in the total nominal value of 180 000 ths. EUR, which, starting from 19 February 2014, are admitted to trading on the Bratislava Stock Exchange. See par. 32 - Bonds issued.

In 2009, the Company decided to change the accounting period from a calendar year to a fiscal year from 1 November to 31 October. Such a change was aimed at making the period more realistic as the Company activity depends on seasonal fluctuations.

On 1 May 2013, the parent company Tatry mountain resorts, a.s. and subsidiaries GRANDHOTEL PRAHA a.s., Interhouse Tatry s.r.o. and Tatry mountain resorts services, a.s, merged. On that day, the company Tatry mountain resorts, a.s. became the successor company, and assumed all legal, trade and other liabilities, as well as the assets of its subsidiaries. All subsidiaries ceased to exist by the merger with the parent company, and then were expunged from the Commercial Register.

Notes to the Separate Financial Statements for a period between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014; earlier application is possible if the entity applies early also standards IFRS 11, IFRS 12, IAS 27 (2011) and IAS 28 (2011). IFRS 10 introduces a uniform model, to be used for the assessment of control for all investments including entities which are presently regarded as special purpose entities (SPE) within the scope of SIC-12. IFRS 10 introduces new requirements for the assessment of control, which differ from the present requirements defined in IAS 27 (2008). Under the new control assessment model, the investor has power over the investee, if: (1) the investor has exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; (2) is able to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor's return; and (3) there is a connection between the power and the return. The new standard contains reporting requirements and requirements for preparation of consolidated financial statements. Those requirements are taken over from IAS 27 (2008).

Amendments to IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, introduces an exception to consolidation requirements under IFRS 10 and requires investment entities that meet certain criteria to measure their investments in controlled entities, as well as investments in associates and joint ventures, at fair value through profit or loss, instead of consolidating them. The consolidation exception is mandatory (i.e., not optional); the only exception are subsidiaries that are considered an extension of the investment entity's investing activities, these subsidiaries have to be consolidated. The amendments also determine disclosure requirements for investment entities.

IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, replaces IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures. IFRS 11 defines two categories of joint arrangements: joint operation and joint venture. Joint operation – an arrangement in which the parties with joint control have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to that arrangement. In respect of its interest in a joint operation, a joint operator must recognize all of its assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, including its relative share of jointly controlled assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Joint venture – an arrangement in which the parties with joint control have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. The option in IAS 31 to account for joint ventures (as defined in IFRS 11) using proportionate consolidation has been removed from IFRS 11. Under these new categories, the legal form of the joint arrangement is not the only factor considered when classifying the joint arrangement as either a joint operation or a joint venture, which is a change from IAS 31. Under IFRS 11, parties are required to consider whether a separate vehicle exists and, if so, the legal form of the separate vehicle, the contractual terms and conditions, and other facts and circumstances.

IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, requires additional disclosures about significant judgements and presumptions used in determining the nature of interests in a unit of account or arrangements, interests in subsidiaries, joints arrangements and associates and in unconsolidated entities.

Amendments to IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements (2011) are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014. IAS 27 (2011) now addresses only the requirements for separate financial statements (preserving the original requirements). The requirements for consolidated financial statements are now addressed in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements.

Amendments to IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (2011) are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014. IAS 28 (2011) replaces IAS 28 Investments in Associates, and prescribes the accounting for investments in associates and the requirements for the application of the equity method when accounting for investments in associates and joint ventures. The standard defines "significant influence" and provides guidance on how to apply the equity method in accounting (including the exemptions of the application of the equity method in some cases). It also defines the method for testing investments in associates and joint ventures for impairment. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these standards on its financial statements.

Notes to the Separate Financial Statements for a period between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies

(a) Statement of compliance

The separate financial statements for the period from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2015 have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the EU and in accordance with Art 17a), par. 3 of Act No. 431/2002 Coll. of the National Council of the Slovak Republic on Accounting ("Act on Accounting").

The IFRS and the Act on Accounting require preparation of consolidated financial statements, because the Company has an ownership interest in its subsidiary. The Company did not consolidate its subsidiary into these financial statements. The investments in subsidiaries are recognized at cost (net of impairment losses, if any) and dividend returns are recognized at the moment when the Company became entitled to receiving dividends from those companies. The Company applies similar treatment to associates. The Company prepares consolidated financial statements that shall be published by the end of February 2016 and that shall be available at the Company headquarters.

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 22 February 2016.

(b) Basis of preparation

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

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

The separate financial statements have been prepared in thousands EUR.

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

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

When preparing the separate financial statements, the Company applied the following International Financial Reporting Standards, amendments to the standards and interpretations as adopted by the EU, which are effective for the accounting period starting 1 November 2014:

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

Notes to the Separate Financial Statements for a period between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015

2. Significant Accounting Principles (continued) financial statements they disclose their accounting methods and accounting principles. The Company does not expect that the

amendments will have a significant effect on the presentation of the Company financial statements on the first application.

Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38 Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation (Objasnenie akceptovateľnej metódy odpisovania) effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016 are to be applied prospectively, with earlier application being permitted. Amendments explicitly specify that the revenue-based amortisation method may not be used for Property Plant and Equipment. The amendments introduce a rebuttable presumption that a revenue-based amortisation method for intangible assets is inappropriate. The presumption can be overcome when the revenue and the consumption of economic benefits of the intangible assets "are highly correlated" or when the intangible asset is expressed as a measure of revenue. It is expected that the Amendment will not have a significant effect on the Company

financial statements on the first application as the Company does not apply the revenue-based amortisation method.

Amendments to IAS 16 Property Plant and Equipment (Nehnuteľnosti, stroje a zariadenia) and IAS 41 Agriculture (Poľnohospodárstvo) effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, with earlier application being permitted. The amendments bring bearer plants into the scope of IAS 16 Property Plant and Equipment, and not into the scope of IAS 41 Agriculture because their operation is similar to that of manufacturing. The Company does not expect that the amendments will have a significant effect on the financial statements on the first application as the Company has no bearer plants.

Amendments to IAS 19 Defined Benefit Plans: Employee Contributions (Programy so stanovenými požitkami: Príspevky zamestnanca) effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 February 2015. The amendments are applied retrospectively, with earlier application being permitted. Amendments are only relevant for defined benefit plans that contain contributions from employees or from third parties, and comply with certain criteria, specifically, that they are provided in formal conditions of the benefit plan, relate to a service, and are independent of the years of service. When such criteria are complied with, a company can (but need not) account for them as a reduction of cost for services in the period when the related service is provided. The Company does not expect that the amendments will have a significant effect on its financial statements as the Company has no Defined Benefit Plans containing contributions from employees or from third parties.

Amendments to IAS 27 Equity method in the separate financial statements (Metóda vlastného imania v separátnej účtovnej závierke) effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, and are to be applied retrospectively, with earlier application being permitted. Amendments to IAS 27 permit the Company to use the Equity method in the separate financial statements in accounting for investments in subsidiary, affiliated companies and joint ventures. At present, the Company assesses the effect of this standard on the financial statements.

IFRS Annual Improvements

The Improvements bring 10 amendments to 10 standards and consequential amendments to other standards and interpretations. Most of the amendments are to be applied to accounting periods beginning on or after 1 February 2015 or 1 January 2016, with permitted earlier adoption. Further 4 amendments to 4 standards effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015, with permitted earlier adoption. The amendments are not expected to have an impact on the Company's financial statements.

Other International Financial Reporting Standards

The Company has not adopted any other IFRS standards adopted by EU early where adoption is not mandatory at the date of preparation of the financial statements. Where transition provisions give an entity the choice of whether to apply new standards prospectively or retrospectively, the Company has decided to apply the standards prospectively.

Notes to the Separate Financial Statements for a period between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Amendments to IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014. To clarify certain aspects because of diversity in application of the requirements of offsetting, the amendment focuses on four main areas: (1) the meaning of the term "legally enforceable right of set-off"; (2) the application of simultaneous realization and settlement; (3) the offsetting of collateral amounts; (4) the unit of account for applying the offsetting requirements. The amendment is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or performance.

Amendments to IAS 36 Impairment of Assets (Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets), effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, clarifies that the scope of recoverable amount disclosures, when the amounts are based on fair value less costs of disposal, is limited to impaired assets. The amendment is not expected to have an impact on the Company's financial position or performance.

Amendments to IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting), effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, provides an exception to the requirement to discontinue hedge accounting in situations where over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives designated in hedging relationships are directly or indirectly novated to a central counterparty (CCP) as a consequence of laws or regulations, or the introduction of laws or regulations. The amendment is not expected to have an impact on the Company's financial position or performance.

IFRIC 21 Levies, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 17 June 2014, is applied with a retroactive effect. An early application is permitted. The interpretation provides guidance on how to identify the obligating event for the recognition of a liability and when to recognize the liability for a levy imposed by a government. The IFRIC identifies the obligating event as the activity that triggers the payment of the levy in accordance with the relevant legislation and as a result of which, the liability to pay levies is recognized in the period in which the obligation event occurs. The liability to pay levies is recognized progressively if the obligating event occurs over a period of time. If an obligation is triggered on reaching a minimum threshold, the liability is recognized when that minimum threshold is reached. The IFRIC explains that and entity does not have a constructive obligation to pay a levy that will be triggered by operating in a future period as a result of the entity being economically compelled to continue to operate in that future period. The amendment is not expected to have an impact on the Company's financial position or performance.

International Financial Reporting Standards that have been issued but are not effective yet

As at 31 October 2015, the following International Financial Reporting Standards, amendments to and interpretations of the Standards were issued, which have not become effective yet, and thus were not applied by the Company when compiling these Financial Statements.

Amendments to IFRS 11 Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations beginning on or after 1 January 2016 are to be applied prospectively, with earlier application being permitted. The amendments require that accounting for a business combination is applied to the acquisitions of interests in joint operations that form an enterprise. Accounting for a business combination is also applied to the acquisitions of other interests in joint operations if a joint operator retains joint control. Other acquired interests shall be measured at fair value. Interests in joint operations that were acquired before shall not be measured. The impact of adopted amendments can be assessed only in the year when amendments were applied for the first time as their impact will depend on the acquisition of joint operations that occurred during the accounting period. The Company does not intend to adopt the amendments earlier, so it is not possible to estimate their impact on the financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 1 effective for accounting periods starting on 1 January 2016 or later. Earlier application is permitted. The amendments contain the following five improvements that are closely linked to disclosure requirements contained in the standard. Guidelines on the relevance in IAS 1 have been amended to clarify that immaterial information can distract attention from the useful information; relevance is applicable to the financial statements as a whole; relevance is applicable to each requirement for the disclosure in IFRS. Guidelines on the order of notes (including the accounting methods and accounting principles) have been amended as follows. Formulations which were construed as the requirement for the order of notes to the financial statements shall be deleted from IAS 1 and it shall be clarified that companies have more flexibility in where in the

Notes to the Separate Financial Statements for a period between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

vi. Derecognition

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

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

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

(d) Financial investments

i. Subsidiaries

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

ii. Associates

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

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

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

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

(e) Foreign currency

Foreign currency transactions

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

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

(f) Cash and cash equivalents

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

(g) Inventories

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

Notes to the Separate Financial Statements for a period between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015

2. Significant Accounting Principles (continued)

(c) Financial instruments (excluding financial liabilities)

i. Classification

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

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

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

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

ii. Recognition

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

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

iii. Measurement

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

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

iv. Fair value measurement principles

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

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

v. Gain and losses on subsequent revaluation

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

i. Owned assets

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

ii. Leasing

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

iii. Subsequent expenditures

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

iv. Depreciation

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

  • Individual movables and sets of movables Geothermal borehole 40 years Slides 25 years Cableways and ski lifts 20 - 30 years Equipment 5 - 12 years
    -
    • Fixtures and fittings and others 5 10 years

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

v. Capitalized borrowing costs

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

(k) Intangible assets

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

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(h) Offsetting

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

(i) Impairment

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

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

Loans granted are recognised net of value adjustment for losses on loans. Value adjustments are determined on the basis of the state of the loan and performance of the borrower and the value of any collateral and all third-party guarantees is taken into account.

The recoverable amount of receivables carried at amortised cost is calculated as the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed upon initial recognition of these financial assets). Short-term receivables are not discounted.

If assets available for sale caused a decrease in fair value recognized directly in equity and if objective reasons exist that prove that there was a decrease in the fair value of the assets, the cumulated loss recognized in equity shall be reported in the profit and loss statement even if the relevant financial asset had not been reversed from the financial position. The amount of loss recognized in the profit and loss statement is the difference between the acquisition cost and the fair value, adjusted for the impairment of the financial asset already recognized in profit and loss. A decrease in fair value of more than 20% of the acquisition cost or a decrease in fair value below the acquisition cost that lasts continuously more than nine months in case of securities investments is considered an impairment.

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

An impairment loss in respect of receivables carried at amortised cost is reversed if the increase in the recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised.

In the case of goodwill, an impairment loss cannot be decreased subsequently.

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

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

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(n) Interest income and expense

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

(o) Rental income

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

(p) Income tax

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

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

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

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

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

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

(q) Operative and financial lease payments

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

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

(r) Trade and other payables

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

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

ii. Software and other intangible assets

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

iii. Amortisation

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

  • Software 4 5 years
  • Valuable rights each item uses an individual depreciation plan, based on the estimated useful lives if these assets, valuable rights also

include trademarks which represent non-depreciated assets. The Company uses 6, 7, 8, 12 and 50-year useful lives for its valuable rights.

(l) Investment property

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

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

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

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

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

(m) Provisions

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

i. Long-term employee benefits

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

ii. Short-term employee benefits

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

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(v) Reporting by segments

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

(w) Financial liabilities

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

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

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

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

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

(x) Fair value estimates

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

i. Loans granted

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

ii. Loans and borrowings

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

i. Trade receivables/payables, other receivables and other assets/liabilities

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

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(s) Revenues from services rendered

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

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

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

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

Revenues are accrued depending on in which period the services were rendered, excluding revenues from the aqua park, hotel services and restaurant facilities, which are recognised in profit or loss after the service has been rendered. Revenues from services rendered do not include value added tax. They are also net of discounts and rebates (rebates, bonuses, discounts, credit notes and the like).

Since 2012 the Company has been running a loyalty program for its clients – GOPASS. GOPASS enables its clients to earn points for purchase of products and services in its resorts and to redeem these points as discounts from future purchases.

The amount of unredeemed points are recognized as a decrease in sales against revenue time difference, as they are related to promised discounts from future purchases of clients. The Company monitors the value of unredeemed points and revalues it on a regular basis for its recognition in the financial statements.

(t) Dividends

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

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

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

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

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

Impairment losses on initial recognition as held for sale are recognised in profit or loss even if the revaluation reserve was created. The same applies to gains and losses on subsequent measurements. Gains are not recognised in excess of any cumulative impairment loss.

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets classified as held for sale are no longer depreciated or amortised.

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

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

(b) Goodwill and Impairment Test

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

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

In the accounting period between 1 November 2012 and 31 October 2013, the goodwill resulted from a merger of the Company and Interhouse Tatry s.r.o. (a company running the Grandhotel Starý Smokovec) in the amount of 3 740 ths. EUR. Then as at 31 October 2013, an impairment test was made for the goodwill. The test result indicated an impairment of goodwill by 350 ths. EUR, due to which the goodwill was reduced to 3 390 ths. EUR.

The impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of CGU to which the goodwill relates (CGU Vysoké Tatry), based on the value in use. The amount is derived from future cash flows estimated by the management. The discount rate used in assessing the fair value was 6.5% for 2015 and 6.5% for 2014 (taking into account the income tax).

The value in use was derived from a business plan prepared by the management. The key prerequisite which was also the most sensitive factor in determining the recoverable amount, was expected revenues assessed by the management, the profit margin ratio (EBIDTA) and the cost of capital used as the discount factor for future net cash flows. Expected revenues as well as the profit margin ratio are based on changes in customer target groups, strengthened marketing and increase in the quality of services rendered.

Projecting of cash flows applied in determining the value in use covers a medium-term period of 5 years and subsequent extrapolation for the next period. Based on such standard level of cash flows, the terminal value was calculated with expected growth of cash flows at 2.2% p.a. (2014: 2.2%). Discount rates applied in the projecting of cash flows were calculated as weighted average cost of capital.

In 2015 and 2014, goodwill was tested within CGU Vysoké Tatry, and the test did not show any reason for asset impairment.

If as at 31 October 2015, projected EBITDA being part of projected cash flows was lower than 5% in comparison with management estimates, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit in the location of High Tatras would drop by 8 999 ths. EUR. In such case, it would not be necessary to account for the asset impairment or goodwill even at a lower EBIDTA reached. If the discount rate increased by 0.5 percentage point in comparison with the management estimate, i.e. its value was 7.00 %, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit for the location of High Tatras would drop by 15 906 ths. EUR. Here again it would not be necessary to account for asset impairment or goodwill even at a higher discount rate.

(c) Asset Impairment At the end of each reporting period, an entity is required to assess whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired

As at the date of the financial statements, the Company is required to assess whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. IAS 36 requires the testing of asset impairment in cases where external or internal indicators would point possible asset impairment.

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

The compilation of the financial statements according to the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU requires the application of certain significant accounting estimates. It also requires that the management, in the application process of the Company accounting principles, should use its judgement. Therefore, the accounting estimates will be rarely identical with actual figures. Estimates and assumptions carrying a significant risk of causing a material modification of the book value of assets and liabilities in the future accounting period, are described below in the text. Estimates and assumptions are re-evaluated from time to time. If the re-evaluation of accounting estimates only applies to one accounting period, it will be accounted for in that period; if the re-evaluation affects both the present and future accounting periods, it will be accounted for in the period when the re-evaluation occured, and also in the future periods.

(a) Valuation of Investments in Property

Investments in property are measured at fair value. The fair value of investments in property is determined either by an independent authorized expert or by the management (see the Significant Accounting Principles, par. l); in both of the cases the valuation is based on current market values and conditions. The fair market value is the estimated value for which the property could be exchanged, on the valuation day, between knowledgeable, willing parties being a prospective seller and a prospective buyer, in an arm's length transaction, after reasonable marketing.

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

In the period between 1.11.2014 and 31.102015, the investments in real property cover three hotels (SKI, Liptov, Kosodrevina) and the accommodation facility Otupné with the aggregate book value of 1 982 ths. EUR (for the period between 1.11.2013 and 31.10.2014, the investments in real property covered four hotels – SKI, Liptov, Kosodrevina, Slovakia and the accommodation facility Otupné with the aggregate book value of 2 693 ths. EUR), which are leased out to third parties that operate them, as well as forest areas and lots of land obtained as an acquisition in 2009 in the book value of 4 572 ths. EUR. Over the course of 2015, the Slovakia Hotel was, based on Company management decision, transferred from investments in property, and is intended for sale. The value of the hotels was estimated by the management in a manner specified above. The value of the land was determined by the management using market prices, and the final value is based on an estimate of the market price per square meter, depending on the type of land and market transactions for similar lots of land.

As at 31 October 2015, the Company management, based on current market conditions, re-valuated the value of investments in property. The result was an increase in the value of the SKI hotel by 188 ths. EUR, and an increase in the value of the Liptov hotel by 40 ths. EUR. Total revaluation of investments in property in 2015, executed with the profit/loss from operations, was a revenue of 228 ths. EUR (2014: revenue of 1 413 ths. EUR).

If the fair value of the portion of investments in property which was determined based on management estimates differs from management estimates by 10%, the book value of investments in property would be higher or lower by 655 ths. EUR in comparison with the amount reported as at 31 October 2015 (as at 31 October 2014: 726 ths. EUR).

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

(d) Financial Instruments at Fair Value

The fair value of financial instruments is determined based on:

Level 1: quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2: inputs other than quoted market prices included within Level 1, which are comparable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices of comparable instruments) or indirectly (derived from prices) Level 3: inputs for the asset and liability, which are not determined on the basis of data from comparable markets (unobservable inputs)

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

In 2015, the Company acquired an investment in the company CAREPAR, a.s. in the value of 15 ths. EUR.

Within Level 3, the Company reports mainly financial investment (a share of share capital of 19%) in MELIDA, a.s. in the amount of 154 ths. EUR (as at 31 October 2014: 1 869 ths. EUR) and other financial investments priced through profit/loss from operations as stated in par. 25 Financial Investments. On 6 November 2012, the company MELIDA, a.s. concluded an agreement for the leasing of an enterprise with the company SKIAREÁL Špindlerův Mlýn, a.s., which was assessed as a business combination under the Company management for the needs of consolidated financial statements.

The fair value of this financial property was estimated, in 2014, by the Company management using the discounted cash flow method, with the application of input from the business plan and of cash flow estimates. The business plan and cash flow estimates were consistently reviewed before application by Company management. The discount rate applied in the valuation of such financial assets was 7.02%, in 2014. The main preconditions that were used in the valuation, were estimated cash flows and discount rate. On 9 December 2015, the Company sold its entire 19% share of securities in MELIDA a.s. in the total amount of 154 ths. EUR. For such reason the Company revalued the value of securities of MELIDA a.s. to a value under the contract concluded as at 31 October 2015, the result of which was a negative difference in valuation of 1 716 ths. EUR.

Notes to the Separate Financial Statements for a period between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015

3. Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

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

As at 31 October 2015, the Company management having considered the Company asset impairment, did not identify any indicator of possible impairment. For that reason, the asset impairment test was not performed. An impairment test was performed only for the location of High Tatras, as it has assigned Goodwill as specified in par. 3(b).

As at 31 October 2014, indicators of Company asset impairment were identified as some of principal activities did not reach planned profitability. For that reason, an asset impairment test was performed. Three basic individual cash-generating units were tested as provided above, i.e. the High Tatras Centre, the JASNÁ Low Tatras centre, and the aquapark Tatralandia in Liptovský Mikuláš. The test results did not result in any asset impairment.

Possible impairment is determined by comparing the recoverable amount and the book value of cash-generating unit.

The recoverable amount was determined based on the value in use. The value in use was derived from the value of future cash flows adjusted to the present value by discounting. In 2015, the discount rate applied in asset impairment test was 6.5% (2014: 6,5%), taking into account the income tax. The discount rate was calculated using the method of weighted average cost of capital.

The value in use of each cash-generating unit was determined based on projected cash flows derived from a long-term financial plan prepared by the management. Financial plans were prepared for a period of next five years. Projected cash flows for the next period of five years were derived from such financial plans.

In such a following period, it is expected to reach such operating and financial performance which is considered as sustainable over the long term by the management. Based on such a standard level of cash flows, the terminal value was calculated with projected growth of cash flows at 2.2% p.a. in the test conducted as at 31 October 2015 (2014: 2,2%).

In addition to the discount rate, mainly planned rates and attendance are the key prerequisites that most influence the value in use. Most of projections are based on historical experience in addition to planned facts associated with new investments (such as transport capacity of new cable-ways). In the estimates of future prices, the management also considered the prices of comparable resorts, hotels and aquaparks in other countries, reflecting differences in the customer target group.

If as at 31 October 2014, projected EBITDA being part of projected cash flows was lower by 5% in comparison with management estimates, the value in use for the individual cash-generating unit in the location of Jasná (the Low Tatras) would be lower by 9 831 ths. EUR; for the location of High Tatras it would drop by 7 444 ths. EUR, and for the location of Liptovský Mikuláš (Tatralandia) it would be lower by 4 980 ths. EUR. In neither case would it be necessary to post an asset impairment even at a lower EBIDTA indicator. If the discount rate increased by 0,5 percentage point in comparison with the management estimate, i.e. its value was 7.00 %, the value in use for an individual cash-generating unit for the location of Jasná (the Low Tatras) would be lower by 14 243 ths. EUR, for the location of High Tatras would drop by 12 062 ths. EUR, and for the location of Liptovský Mikuláš (Tatralandia) would be lower by 7 765 ths. EUR. In neither case would it be necessary to post an asset impairment even at a higher discount rate.

  • Operational risk

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

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

Currency risk

Due to the acquisition of subsidiaries in the Republic of Poland and due to providing a loan to and receiving a loan from themy during 2014 and 2015, the Company is primarily exposed to the risk of changes in the exchange rate of Polish Zloty against the EUR. The management monitors regularly whether there is a large difference between foreign currency liabilities and receivables. As at 31 October 2015, the Company reported an investment in the subsidiary in the amount of 14.641 ths. EUR, and loans provided in the total amount of 1.313 ths. EUR and loans received of 5.422 ths. EUR denominated originally in the Polish Zloty. The other Company assets and liabilities are denominated in euros.

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

Sensitivity analysis

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

Effect on the portfolio
-- -- -- -------------------------
In ths. EUR 2015 2014
PLN 40 -78

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

Interest risk

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

35. Information on Risk Management (continued)

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