2 Summary of significant accounting principles

The principal accounting principles applied in the preparation of the Company's and the Group's financial statements for the period of twelve months ended 31 March 2023 are set out below:

2.1 Basis of preparation

These condensed interim consolidated and separate financial statements, including the statements of financial position and statement of profit or loss, statements of comprehensive income, cash flow statement and the statements of changes in equity for the period of three months ended 31 March 2023 have not been audited. The consolidated and separate financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2022 have been audited and prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted in European Union and are in compliance thereof.

For a better understanding of the information presented in these financial statements, these condensed financial statements should be read together with the annual consolidate and separate financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2022. PricewatehouseCoopers UAB carried out an audit of Consolidated and separate Financial Statements for the period ended on 31 December 2022.

The Group's and separate condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of 31 March 2023 were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The Group and the Company have been following the same accounting principles as the ones that were followed in the preparation of financial statements for the year 2022.

The statements were prepared based on an acquisition cost, excluding tangible fixed assets, which were presented at revalued amount.

In accordance with the accounting principles of fixed assets of EPSO–G UAB group companies, assets are accounted at revalued amount deducting accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, whereas grants are accounted for by reducing the carrying amount of the related asset.

The financial year of the Group and the Company coincides with the calendar year.

2.2 Presentation currency

All amounts in these financial statements have been measured and presented in the euros (EUR), which is an official currency of the Republic of Lithuania. These financial statements are presented in EUR '000 unless otherwise stated.

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.

In the statement of financial position the relevant data of the Group's and the Company's assets and liabilities correspond, because the assets and liabilities of subsidiary Get Baltic are reported as the assets and liabilities of disposal group, therefore only the Group's data are presented in the explanatory notes.

The disposal group does not meet the criteria for discontinued operations, as the subsidiary is not considered a major (significant) line of business or geographical area of operation, so the impact of discontinued operations is not disclosed in the profit (loss) and cash flow statements.

The Company's transactions with Get Baltic will be carried out even after the sale date, therefore, in the consolidated reports, mutual transactions are eliminated from the disposal group.

3.2 Accounting principles applying to system user's balancing

Following the amendments introduced in regulation of balancing services with effect from 1 March 2022, the Company assessed whether it acts as a principal or as an agent in its transactions of balancing services. The Company's management concluded that with effect from 1 March 2022 it acts as an agent in its transactions of balancing services and therefore, the net result of the balancing services is reported in the financial statements, i.e. balancing income are offset against expenses. Before 1 March 2022, the Company acted as a principal in its transactions of balancing services, and therefore, revenue and expenses from transmission and balancing services were reported in the financial statements.

3.3 The impact of the Russia's invasion of Ukraine on financial statements

Given that the Group and the Company have no significant transactions and subsidiaries in the affected markets (Russia, Belarus, Ukraine), the events in Ukraine had no direct impact on the Group's and the Company's financial performance and cash flows.

The natural gas transmission system in Lithuania operates totally free of imports of Russian gas. Gas by transit is transporting through Lithuania to the Kaliningrad Region in technical mode that ensures transmission of gas only to the extent necessary for the transit. Gas from the Klaipėda LNG terminal by the transmission system is transporting to the internal trading point of Lithuania, also to/from the directions of Latvia and Poland. Also, gas is admitted to Lithuania by transferring from Latvia and Poland.

Gas prices in the markets decreased in the Q1 2023, compared to 2022 year. In March, the BGSI natural gas price index of the Baltic countries and Finland, which captures the changes in natural gas prices in the daily market, reached 49.24 EUR/MWh, i.e. the lowest average price during the last 18 months. The natural gas price in GET Baltic gas exchange from August 2022, when the highest average price was fixed since the beginning of the war in Ukraine (241.69 EUR/MWh), decreased by 80 percent. Warmer-than-usual weather, high quantities of gas in storages and increased import volumes of liquefied natural gas (LNG) contributed to the fall in natural gas prices.

In the Baltic States and Finland region, natural gas consumption decreased by 29 percent in Q1 2023 compared to Q1 2022. Despite the ongoing events in Ukraine and the drop in gas demand in the region, Q1 2023 in GET Baltic gas exchange was one of the most active since the start of operations. The traded amount of natural gas reached around 3 TWh, which is 37 percent higher than in corresponding period of last year (Q1 2022 – 2.4 TWh).

4 Reclassification of comparative figures in the financial statements

In the statement of profit or loss as of 31 December 2022, the Group and the Company reclassified revenue by presenting separately other income from non-operating activities and dividend income, by eliminating them from finance income. Natural gas costs are detailed, distinguishing the costs of natural gas system balancing products and the costs of natural gas technological needs. Applying the agent principle to the balancing activity of the system users, the comparative data are reported by presenting the net result of the balancing activity. Hereinafter the impact of the income reclassification to the income statement items is presented for the period of three-month ended March 31. A detailed classification of revenue is presented in Note 21.

24 Commitments and contingencies

Litigations

Currently, the Company is involved in one civil case regarding award of the LNG terminal funds and late interest from Achema AB.

In respect of the civil case regarding award of the LNG terminal funds, the Company acts solely as an administrator of the LNG terminal funds, transfers the LNG terminal funds to their recipients only after collecting them from the buyers, and accordingly, the Company does not incur credit risk in respect of the disputed amount.

By the decision of Kaunas Regional Court of 20 January 2022, the proceedings were suspended in respect of the claimed LNG extra charges of EUR 4 678 thousand and late interest of EUR 55 thousand arising from the natural gas transmission service contract of 22 December 2014, as it was pending the decision of the European Commission regarding the compatibility of the LNG extra charges, collected during the period from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2018, with the state aid rules under the EU law. By decision of 17 March 2022, the Lithuanian Court of Appeal left the decision of Kaunas Regional Court of 20 January 2022 unchanged.

By the decision of Kaunas Regional Court of 20 September 2022, the proceedings were also suspended in respect of late interest of EUR 763 thousand arising from the natural gas transmission service contract of 21 December 2012 and a counterclaim, whereby Achema AB requested to declare as unlawful the Company's actions when calculating late interest under the natural gas transmission service contract of 21 December 2012 and when allocating the payments collected from Achema AB under the contract for offsetting against late interest, as it was pending the decision of the European Commission regarding the compatibility of the LNG terminal funds, charged during the period from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2018, with the state aid rules under the EU law. As the Company disagreed with the decision of Kaunas Regional Court of 20 June 2022, it filed a separate appeal regarding the annulment of the aforementioned part of the decision. As the Lithuanian Court of Appeal investigated the Company's separate appeal, it made a decision on 8 September 2022, by which the decision of Kaunas Regional Court of 20 June 2022 was left unchanged.

As at 17 March 2023 the Company submitted an application to the Kaunas District Court regarding the increase of the claim (hereinafter - the Application), asking the court to award EUR 763 thousand late interest from AB "Achema" in favor of the Company, according to 2012 natural gas transmission service contract dated 21 December 2012, 5 655 thousand LNG terminal funds and EUR 169 thousand late interest in accordance with 22 December 2014 natural gas transmission service contract. The issue of acceptance of this Company's Application will be decided by the Kaunas District Court after resuming the proceedings.
