3 Accounting estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and disclosure of contingencies. Future events may occur which may cause the assumptions used in arriving at the estimates to change. The effect of any changes in estimates will be recorded in the financial statements, when determinable.
3.1. COVID-19 impact on key accounting estimates, assumptions and estimation uncertainties
During the assessment of coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and quarantine situations impact on Group and Company’s activity, the Company’s management identified the following aspects and preventive actions, that were taken to reduce the impact of pandemic situation:
According to the data as at 31 December 2021, the immunization of the Company's and the Group's employees respectively accounted for 90-100%. Although the level of immunization is high enough, due to the threat of spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) during the pandemic period the Group and the Company reviewed and implemented the following business continuity and preventive measures: appointed employees responsible for monitoring and reporting the situation to the Company's management; identified business units and employees undertaking the critical functions and administrating the main systems; planned technical and substitution measures in case of spread of the virus. The Company continuously reviews its emergency management plan and carries out preparatory works for ensuring continuity of the critical functions.
In the opinion of the Company, the other factors (air temperature in the cold period of the year, prices of natural gas in the market) have a more significant impact on the demand for natural gas transmission services and the transmission volumes than the restrictions imposed as a result of a pandemic and quarantine situation. No significant adverse effects of COVID-19 were identified during the monitoring of trading on the natural gas exchange operated by UAB GET Baltic. Natural gas sales volumes in 2021 was 10 percent higher than in the same period of the last year.
During the pandemic situation, the Group and the Company are assessing and updating on a continuous basis, the impact of factors related to coronavirus COVID-19 on the Group’s and the Company‘s performance and results of operations. The potential disruptions or impacts are assessed on: (i) cash flows, (ii) the supply and demand of transmission services (iii) attracting of funding sources, (iv) potential infection by COVID-19 of employees fulfilling critical functions, (v) delays in fulfilment of projects.
Based on the analysis of information available as at the date of issue of the condensed financial statements about the COVID-19-related threats in the future, the Group and the Company did not identify any material circumstances that might cast doubt upon the Company‘s ability to continue as a going concern.
Net book amount and useful life: property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
According Company's management assessment no negative impact of coronavirus COVID-19 has been identified on the results of operations and cash flows, the Company‘s management believes there are no indications of impairment of property, plant and equipment. Even an adverse change in the results of operations or cash flows in a short term would not cause negative impact on the cash flows and impairment of PP&E in a long-term perspective due to the regulatory mechanism in place.
Expected credit losses: financial assets
Monitoring of the Company‘s key customers has not resulted in identification of any material negative impact of COVID-19.
The Company projects no liquidity or credit risk issues. The Company’s key customers are large companies, which are often regulated and/or included into the list of risk-free companies. Due to the specific nature of the Company’s customers, expected credit losses on receivables are assessed based on the level of credit risk. Debts with a high level of credit risk concentration or a significant increase in the probability of credit losses are assessed individually. The Company assessed the current and expected economic condition of its key customers, did not identify any significant variances, and the settlements were performed in an ordinary manner. The
17
AB AMBER GRID, company code 303090867, Laisvės ave. 10, Vilnius, Lithuania CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED AND SEPARATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF 31 DECEMBER 2021
expected credit losses remained at a similar level as in 2020. The Company plans to update its risk assessments regularly, upon changes in an economic environment, and takes measures to strengthen control over payments.
3.2. Provisions for easement and special land use conditions (protected areas)
A provision for non-current liabilities for the obligation to register special land use conditions (protection zones) was formed for the first time in the financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2020.
When assessing the amount of the commitment, the expected term of its fulfilment is taken into account. The provision for the commitment to register the protected areas was recognised at a present value of the expected costs of registration of the special land use conditions (the protected areas), discounted over the term of fulfilment of the commitment.
As at 31 December 2021 the assumptions for forming the provision were not changed.
3.3. Recognition of new consumers connection revenue
Preparing the financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2020, the accounting policy to recognition of revenue from connection of new customers has been changed. Connection fees on connection of new consumers are recognised as revenue over such period that reflects the best estimate of customer relationship, as opposed to the previously applied revenue recognition approach, when connection fees on connection of new consumers were recognised as revenue immediately. In the opinion of the Company‘s management, revenue from connection fees is linked directly to rendering of transmission service by the Company in future periods when assets created by the Company will be utilised, because the connection to the grid on its own, without future transmission services, does not provide benefit to a customer.
Preparing the financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2020 for the changes in accounting policy to recognition of revenue from connection fees of new consumers, a retrospective restatement was made for certain line items. As a result of a retrospective restatement, the unamortised part of the connection fee and additional connection fee paid under the contracts that had not been completed as of 1 January 2019 were recognised as a contract liability as at 1 January 2019. In 2021 year no new customers were connected to the natural gas transmission system. In accordance with the provisions of the accounting policy, the part of the connection fees for the reporting period has been recognized as income, reducing the contract liabilities under the new customer connection agreements.

Litigations
Currently, the Company has initiated one civil case regarding the award of extra charge on the natural gas transmission price related to natural gas supply security (the LNG terminal funds) from Achema AB.

The hearing of the above-mentioned civil case is still pending in the first instance Kaunas Regional Court. As at 11 January 2022 AB Achema fulfilled the court obligation and submitted a request for elimination of deficiencies and a revised counterclaim within the set term. The court has not yet set a date for the substantive hearing of the case.
