18 Commitments and contingencies
Litigations
Currently, the Company has initiated two civil cases on the adjudication of the additional component, regarding the security of natural gas supply, to the natural gas transmission price (hereinafter - LNG terminal funds) from Achema AB. The Company acts solely as a LNG terminal funds administrator and transfers LNG terminal funds to its recipients only after collecting them from buyers, so there is no credit risk arising from the disputed amounts.
In addition, the courts are considering a case regarding the legality of the decisions of the Company's Procurement Commission in the procurement of the GIPL project (procurement No, 381642). On 21 May 2020, the Lithuanian Court of Appeal issued a ruling by which the decision of the Vilnius Regional Court of 29 February 2020 was left unchanged (the purchase results remained unchanged). Currently, the plaintiff in the case has filed a cassation appeal, which is accepted and will be considered in the Supreme Court of Lithuania.

20 Assessment of the impact of COVID-19 on demand and results, significant increase in credit risk, expected credit losses
Preparing the interim condensed financial statements for the period ended on 30 September 2020, the estimates and assumptions of the Company's management regarding the impact of COVID-19 have not changed compared to the estimates presented in the financial statements of the previous periods.
The Company's management, assessing the possible impact of the main COVID-19 factors on the Company's strategic objectives, cash flows, financial results, did not identify any threats to the Company's business continuity.
Due to the spread threat of the new coronavirus (COVID-19), business continuity and preventive measures have been reviewed and implemented by the Group and the Company: responsible personnel for monitoring the situation and providing information to the Company's management has been appointed; units and personnel performing critical functions and administering the key systems have been identified; additional organizational measures at system control centers are being applied; technical and replacement measures in case of the virus spread have been planned, The company is constantly reviews the emergency management plan, prepares for additional continuity of critical activities.
No significant adverse effects due to COVID-19 have been identified during the monitoring of the Company's key customers. Gas transportation volumes for 9 months of 2020 year, compared to 2019 year, increased, therefore, the decrease in revenue due to the impact of COVID-19 is not identified. According to the Company, other reasons (fluctuations in air temperatures, natural gas prices in the market) have a more significant impact on the demand and volume of outsourced services than the restrictions caused by quarantine.
The Company does not forecast liquidity or credit risk issues. The main Company's clients are large companies, which are often also regulated and / or listed as risk-free. Due to the specifics of the Company's trade receivables, expected credit losses are assessed individually, taking into account the probability (risk) of non fulfillment of customer's obligation. The Company assessed the current and expected future economic condition of its main customers and did not identify any significant differences, at the time of reporting, settlements took place as usual. Expected credit losses should remain at a similar level as in 2019 year. The Company plans regularly update its credit risk assessments on economic environment changes and takes measures to strengthen payment control.
Considering that the negative impact of COVID-19 on the results of the activity and cash flows has not been identified, the Company's management believes that there are no indications of impairment of non-current assets. Even if financial results or cash flows would be deteriorated in the short term, due to the regulatory mechanism it would not have a negative impact on cash flows and impairment of fixed assets in the long run.
Short-term borrowing is guaranteed to the extent of EPSO-G UAB. The Company has a sufficient short-term borrowing limit (overdraft) ensuring current solvency.
The negative impact of COVID-19 on the financial results, cash flows and financial condition is not forecasting, as a result of which no negative impact on the performance of covenants provided in agreements with banks is not expected, Cooperation with commercial and institutional banks takes place without changeovers.
Implementation of the strategic project of the Company - the gas pipeline connection project between Poland and Lithuania (GIPL) has been performed faster than planned during the 9 months of of 2020 year.
Due to COVID-19, the Company till 30 September 2020 incurred costs in amount of EUR 73 thousand, i,e, EUR 33 thousand for additional wages and salaries and contributions to social security fund for temporarily isolated employees, EUR 36 thousand the purchase of safety equipment, the disinfection of premises and other operational needs, EUR 4 thousand for the cancellation of business trips during the quarantine period.
