2.1.1. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

The financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2021 have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of IAS 34 "Interim Financial Statements". These interim financial statements do not include all the information required in the annual financial report and therefore these should be interpreted in combination with the published audited financial statements for the year ended on 31 December 2020.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost principle, except for fixed assets which are adjusted to fair value at a regular base and the going concern principle

The investment in IPTO S.A. apart from its initial recognition at historical cost, is accounted using the equity method.

The financial statements are presented in thousands of Euros and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise stated. Any differences that may be noticed in the tables are due to roundings

New standards, amendments of existing standards and interpretations have been issued, which are obligatory for accounting periods beginning during the present fiscal year or at a future time and have an impact in the Company's financial data.

EFFECT OF COVID-19

The appearance in early 2020 of the coronavirus disease (Covid-19) and its spread in the following period at pandemic levels has led in taking measures to prevent or limit the spread of the virus. Some of these measures, as indicatively implemented in our country, concerned the suspension of educational structures, department stores and places with large attendance, as well as the reduction of unnecessary travel, affected the daily operation of organizations and companies during the period 01/01/2021 – 31/03/2021.

The Company closely monitors the developments in relation to the spread of the virus and promptly proceeded in receiving emergency measures to protect the health of its employees and the society in general.

Some of the measures and actions taken by the Company include the following:

  • Cancellation of all business trips by public transport, except those receiving special permission from the Chief Executive Officer.

The Company closely monitors the developments and adapts its actions in accordance with the recommendations of the Ministry of Energy and Environment and National Public Health Organization (NPHO).

These actions are mainly protective measures for the health of the Group's employees as indicated below:

  • Set up of a special crisis management team due to coronavirus, responsible for ensuring the Business Continuity of the Company. The group is divided into two subgroups (Business Continuity Group 1 and Business Continuity Group 2 - BCG1 and BCG2), whose members come to work alternately and never come into contact. There are BCG meetings / teleconferences daily, the minutes of which are recorded.
  • Mandatory application of remotely working at a rate of 70% for employees when it is possible to perform their duties remotely.

2.4 NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS OF STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS

Certain new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued that are mandatory for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021. The Group's evaluation of the effect of these new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations is as follows:

Standards and Interpretations effective for the current financial year

IFRS 16 (Amendment) 'Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions'

The amendment provides lessees (but not lessors) with relief in the form of an optional exemption from assessing whether a rent concession related to COVID-19 is a lease modification. Lessees can elect to account for rent concessions in the same way as they would for changes which are not considered lease modifications.

IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 (Amendments) 'Interest rate benchmark reform – Phase 2'

The amendments complement those issued in 2019 and focus on the effects on financial statements when a company replaces the old interest rate benchmark with an alternative benchmark rate as a result of the reform. More specifically, the amendments relate to how a company will account for changes in the contractual cash flows of financial instruments, how it will account for the change in its hedging relationships and the information it should disclose.

Standards and Interpretations effective for subsequent periods

IFRS 16 (Amendment) 'Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 April 2021)

The amendment extends the application period of the practical expedient in relation to rent concessions by one year to cover rental concessions that reduce leases due only on or before 30 June 2022. The amendment has not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IAS 16 (Amendment) 'Property, Plant and Equipment – Proceeds before Intended Use' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022)

The amendment prohibits an entity from deducting from the cost of an item of PP&E any proceeds received from selling items produced while the entity is preparing the asset for its intended use. It also requires entities to separately disclose the amounts of proceeds and costs relating to such items produced that are not an output of the entity's ordinary activities. The amendment has not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IAS 37 (Amendment) 'Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022)

The amendment clarifies that 'costs to fulfil a contract' comprise the incremental costs of fulfilling that contract and an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts. The amendment also clarifies that, before a separate provision for an onerous contract is established, an entity recognises any impairment loss that has occurred on assets used in fulfilling the contract, rather than on assets dedicated to that contract. The amendment has not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IAS 1 (Amendment) 'Classification of liabilities as current or non-current' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023)

The amendment clarifies that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current depending on the rights that exist at the end of the reporting period. Classification is unaffected by the expectations of the entity or events after the reporting date. The amendment also clarifies what IAS 1 means when it refers to the 'settlement' of a liability. The amendment has not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IAS 1 (Amendments) 'Presentation of Financial Statements' and IFRS Practice Statement 2 'Disclosure of Accounting policies' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023)

The amendments require companies to disclose their material accounting policy information and provide guidance on how to apply the concept of materiality to accounting policy disclosures. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IAS 8 (Amendments) 'Accounting policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: Definition of Accounting Estimates' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023)

The amendments clarify how companies should distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022)

The amendments set out below include changes to four IFRSs. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRS 9 'Financial instruments'

The amendment addresses which fees should be included in the 10% test for derecognition of financial liabilities. Costs or fees could be paid to either third parties or the lender. Under the amendment, costs or fees paid to third parties will not be included in the 10% test.

IFRS 16 'Leases'

The amendment removed the illustration of payments from the lessor relating to leasehold improvements in Illustrative Example 13 of the standard in order to remove any potential confusion about the treatment of lease incentives.

Management has assessed that the amendments will not have a significant impact on the financial statements of the Company.

2.4 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS OF THE MANAGEMENT

The preparation of financial information requires Management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the balances of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the reporting date and the revenues and expenses presented in the relevant fiscal period. Management's estimates and judgments are reviewed annually. Actual results may differ from these estimates and judgments.

For the preparation of interim condensed financial statement, the significant judgments from Management during the implementation of Accounting policies for the Company and the main sources of uncertainty assessment are the same as those adopted on the 31st of December 2020.

3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

3.1 FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS

The Company is exposed to financial risk, such as market risk (fluctuations of exchange rates, interest rates, market prices), credit and liquidity risk. The overall risk management program, focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets, aiming to minimize their possible adverse effect on the Company's financial performance.

The Company determines, evaluates and, if necessary, hedges the risks related to operating activities, while controls and revises the relevant policies and procedures related to financial risk management. Also, there are no speculative transactions.

The financial risk is related to the following financial assets and liabilities of the Statement of Financial Position: cash, trade and other receivables, lease assets and liabilities as well as trade and other short-term and long-term liabilities.

a) Market Risk

Price Risk

The Company is not exposed to equity or inventory price risk, as no such elements are recognized in the Statement of Financial Position.

Cash Flow Risk due to interest rates changes

The Company has interest bearing assets that include sight deposits. Probable interest rate changes would have no significant impact on the Company's equity.

Foreign Currency Risk

The risk of exchange rate fluctuations is minimal for the Company. Revenue, expenses, financial assets and liabilities are expressed in Euro.

b) Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk, which is limited to cash and cash equivalents that are deposited into bank accounts and financial institutions.

c) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk relates to the need to ensure adequate cash flow for the operation and development of the Company. The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring and planning its cash flows and acts appropriately to ensure sufficient credit lines and cash deposits, while aiming to diversify its funding sources.

Trade and other liabilities do not include amounts of other taxes payables and insurance contributions.

The above lease amounts are reflected in the conventional, non-discounted cash flows and therefore do not agree with the corresponding amounts reflected in the financial statements regarding the item "Lease liabilities".

3.2 CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMET

The Company's purpose in terms of capital management is to ensure its ability to continue its operations smoothly in order to provide returns to shareholders, benefits to other parties related to the Company and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce capital costs.

The Company has no loan as at 31st of March 2021, apart from the lease liability against the affiliated IPTO, regarding the rental of its offices according to IFRS 16. Therefore, the Company does not calculate leverage ratio.

4. INVESTMENTS ACCOUNTED FOR USING THE EQUITY METHOD

The Company's investments relate to the 51% participation in Group IPTO as described in Note 1 and was initially recognized at the fair value of € 491,770,000 based on the valuation by the auditing firm "Deloitte" accepted by management and published pursuant to Article 17 par. 4 and 8, in conjunction with article 13 of the Law 4548/2018, which is subject to a contribution in kind by PPC SA to the Company. The fair value at initial recognition is considered to be the imputed cost of participation, which is subsequently calculated using the equity method, as described in the note above.

The movement of the investment for the reporting period is as follows:

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR-ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2018
(Amounts in thousand Euro) 31/03/2021 31/12/2020
Investment balance on January 1st, 2020 722.551 704.553

Proportion of other comprehensive income (2) 924
Minus dividends paid - (26.243)
Closing balance on December 31st, 2020 730.845 722.551

The proportion of profits is calculated based on the participation of the Company in the net results of the Group IPTO S.A and other comprehensive income.

The condensed financial information of the Group IPTO S.A regarding the reported period is presented below, according to IFRS 12, part b par. 12:

BOD members' fees 22.500 -
Employer contributions 8.537 5.405
Staff training cost 629 -
Total 48.506 23.357

Within the first quarter of 2021, payroll fees increased due to the increase on the remuneration of the Board of Directors. Based on the payment policy of the Company, the members of the Board of Directors receive an annual remuneration for their participation in the Board of Directors. The members of the Board of Directors, who were entitled to remuneration due to their position, with a term of office until 15/07/2020 had resigned from the specific remuneration, therefore the increase compared to last year is mainly due to the proportion of annual remuneration received by members of the Board due to their position, during their term of office for the period 01/01/2021 to 31/03/2021.
