REVIEW REPORT ON INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

To the Shareholders of the Company ANEK LINES S.A.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed separate and consolidated statement of financial position of the Company "ANEK LINES A.E." as at 30 June 2017 and the relative condensed separate and consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, as well as the selected explanatory notes, that constitute the condensed interim financial information, which is an integral part of the six-month financial report under the L. 3556/2007. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this condensed interim financial information, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union (EU) and which apply to Interim Financial Reporting (International Accounting Standard "IAS 34"). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this condensed interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed interim financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard "IAS 34".

Emphasis of Matters

We draw your attention to:

a) note (14) to the interim financial information where reference is made to the maritime incident of the chartered ship Norman Atlantic that occurred in December 2014. The incident, which is insured by an international Mutual Insurance Co-operative, is still under investigation in the Courts of Italy while a significant number of claims have already been settled out of court. Since the legal procedure is in progress, uncertainty exists as to the final outcome of the case and its contingent effects on the financial statements of

the Group.

b) note (2) to the interim financial information where reference is made to the matter of the going concern assumption assessment and in particular to the fact that the capital adequacy of the Group has not been restored and are applicable for the Company the provisions of the article 48 of cod. L. 2190/1920.

The above facts indicate the existence of uncertainty about the Group's ability to continue unhindered in operation as a going concern. Our conclusion is not qualified in respect of the aforementioned matters.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

Our review did not identify any inconsistency or mismatching of the other data of the provided by the article 5 of L. 3556/2007 six-month financial report with the accompanying condensed interim financial information.

SEMI ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The attached report of the Board of Directors of ANONIMI NAFTILIAKI ETAIREIA KRITIS S.A. refers to the interim separate and consolidated financial statements as of 30 June 2017 and was prepared according to the article 5 of law 3556/2007 and the implementing decisions of the Hellenic Capital Committee and in particular the decision 7/448/11.10.2007. In the attached report is included information regarding the business activities of the Group and the Company, the financial position, the financial results and the significant events during the first half of 2017. Additionally, the report includes the main risks and uncertainties that the Company may face in the second semester of the year and the most significant related party transactions.

Ι. OVERVIEW OF ACTIVITIES & FINANCIAL POSITION

The year 2017 is a landmark year for ANEK, as it completes 50 years of uninterrupted and dynamic presence in the passenger shipping industry. In the half-century of life, the Company contributed decisively to the upgrading of coastal services in the country and also to the strengthening of the Greek presence on the international routes of Adriatic, implementing responsible social and environmental policies and supporting culture, education and sports.

Following the last two profitable fiscal years, ANEK Group retained its profitability in the first half of 2017, improving significantly net results compared to the corresponding period of the previous year. The increase in the average fuel price of more than 50% compared to the first half of 2016, has led to the burdening of operating costs and the reduction in EBITDA. However, lower financial costs, financial income and positive investment results of the first half of 2017, led to a significant improvement in net results, strengthening Group's equity. Also, through the loan restructuring of the Parent company, completed in March 2017, are achieved the financial stability of the Group, the gradual recovery of working capital and the strengthening of the capital structure.

The coastal shipping companies' activity is characterized by strong seasonality, which has an impact on revenue and results of the interim financial statements. Higher sales of Group are recorded in the third quarter of each year and are not reflected in the current financial statements, and thus the operating results for the first semester are not indicative of annual results.

During the first half of 2017, ANEK Group operated through privately owned and chartered vessels

in routes in Adriatic Sea (Ancona and Venice), Crete (Chania and Heraklion), Dodecanese islands and Cyclades. In Cyclades and Dodecanese continued to operate in public service routes. In Crete and Adriatic routes the Group's vessels executed combined itineraries jointly with vessels of "ATTICA S.A. HOLDINGS". In parallel, under the scope of a more efficient management of the fleet, have been occurred charters of Company's vessels abroad. By showing an increase in all transport categories and executing 7% more itineraries compared to the first half of 2016, ANEK Group during the first half of 2017 in all routes operated transferred 356 thousand passengers compared to 339 thousand, 62 thousand private vehicles compared to 56 thousand and 70 thousand trucks compared to 67 thousand.

The key figures and their variations included in the Group's financial statements are as follows:

  • Turnover for the first half of 2017 has been slightly increased and amounted to € 65,3 million compared to € 65,0 million in the corresponding period of 2016.
  • Cost of Sales for the first half of 2017 formed at € 64,9 million from € 53,8 million in the first half of 2016, mainly due to the fuel prices increase.
  • As a result of the above, Group's gross profits amounted to € 0,4 million versus € 11,2 million in the comparable period.
  • Respectively, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) in the first half amounted to losses of € 6,3 million compared to profits of € 4,9 million in the corresponded period of the previous year.
  • Group's net financial cost for the first half of 2017 amounted to € 4,6 million versus € 9,1 million in the first half of 2016, while the restructuring of the Parent's long-term borrowing resulted to an income from write-off of capitalized interest amounting to € 15,5 million. Moreover, the results from investing activities also resulted in profits of € 2,5 million against losses of € 0,1 million in the comparable period.
  • Finally, net results after tax and minority interests amounted to profits of € 2,1 million compared to losses of € 9,1 million in the first half of 2016.
  • Key items of the statement of financial position
  • Group's fixed assets as at 30.06.2017 amounted to € 272,2 million compared to € 266,0 million at the end of the previous year. Depreciation for the period amounted to € 5,1 million and additions to € 11,3 million.
  • Group's trade receivables as at 30.6.2017 formed at € 42,4 million compared to € 37,1 million

in 31.12.2016, while other short-term receivables amounted to € 6,2 million compared to € 5,7 million.

  • Cash and cash equivalents as at 30.06.2017 amounted to € 6,8 million compared to € 11,9 million at the end of the previous year.
  • Group's long-term bank liabilities as at 30.06.2017 amounted to € 251,4 million compared to € 3,5 million at 31.12.2016. It is noted that from 31.12.2012 the Parent's long-term loans were reclassified to short-term bank liabilities, given the fact that terms of the relevant loan contracts were not met, as regard the servicing of the loans. However, following the restructuring of Parent's long-term borrowing, completed in March 2017, the new loans do appear normally in long-term liabilities. Respectively, Group's short-term bank liabilities at the end of the first half of 2017 stood at € 17,9 million compared to € 282,1 million at 31.12.2016.
  • Trade payables as at 30.06.2017 amounted to € 31,6 million from € 23,0 million at 31.12.2016, while other short term liabilities amounted to € 26,7 million compared to € 10,1 million, mainly, due to the seasonality of sales (increase of deferred income by € 11,7 million referred to tickets for trips at a post later time of June 30th , 2017).

Cash flows

Group during first half of 2017 showed inflows from operating activities amounted to € 7,7 million compared to € 4,4 million in the corresponding period. Investing activities showed outflows of € 11,4 million compared to € 5,4 million in the first half of 2016. Finally, financing activities for the first half of 2017 showed outflows of € 1,4 million compared to € 0,3 million.

Financial ratios

  • The gross profit margin (%) "Gross Profit / Turnover" of the Group for the first half of 2017 formed at 0,6%, compared to 17,2% in the corresponding period, due to the increase in vessels' operating cost.
  • Indicators of general liquidity (:1) "Current assets / Current liabilities" and immediate liquidity (:1) "[Current assets - Inventory] / Current liabilities" stood at 0,87 and 0,83 respectively, versus 0,20 and 0,19 at 31.12.2016. These indicators have been significantly improved after the Parent's long-term loans restructuring.
  • The debt ratios (:1) "Liabilities / Equity" and "Long and short term borrowings / Equity" are negative due to the Group's negative equity. The "Liabilities / (Equity + Liabilities)" ratio formed at 1,02 on 30.06.2017 remaining stable compared to the end of year 2016, while the "Long and short term borrowings / (Equity + Liabilities)" ratio formed at 0,79 compared to

0,86. All above ratios were significantly affected by the decrease in equity during the previous years.

  • Finally, regarding the capital structure, the "Fixed Assets / Long Term Liabilities" and "Fixed Assets / Long-term Bank Liabilities" ratios on 30.06.2017 stood at 1,02 and 1,10 respectively. These ratios could not be deducted in the previous periods due to the reclassification of Parent's long-term loans to short-term liabilities.

ΙΙ. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS FIRST HALF 2017

  • In February 2017, ANEK won the 3rd award in "Recovery of 2016 results" of the "MONEY" business prize, in recognition of the significant turnaround of the results and the return to profitability.
  • In March 2017, the Parent's long-term debt restructuring was successfully completed. Under the terms of the new contracts, the repayment was agreed to be done gradually up to 2023, the interest rate burdening is significantly lower, while part of the capitalized interest was written off. Through the restructuring is ensured the financial stability of the Group, the gradual restoration of working capital and the strengthening of the capital structure. In the framework of the above restructuring, an extraordinary General Meeting of the Company's shareholders took place, which decided to issue a convertible bond loan amounting to € 22 million, according to the provisions of Codified Law 2190/1920 and Law 3156/2003, by private placement and abolition of the preference right of the old shareholders.
  • On May 26, 2017, the Annual General Meeting of the Parent Company was held, and inter alia, elected the new Board of Directors of the Company and appointed its independent members according to the provisions of Law 3016/2002. The new Board of Directors was constituted as a body and distributed principles as follows:

ΙΙΙ. MAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES FOR THE 2ND HALF

Risk of fuel prices fluctuation

Fuel cost is the key operating cost incurred by the Group which has a direct effect on the results of each period and thus, a rise in fuel prices is the most important risk faced by the Group. Fuel prices are settled in Euro, but they are indirectly affected by the EUR/USD exchange rate used as a basis for the determination of the international prices. The sensitivity of the results and of the equity to a change in the average cost of fuels per metric ton -ceteris paribus- for the first half of 2017 was as follows:

Fuel price change Effect on results and equity
± 5% / metric ton (-/+) € 1,05 million
± 10% / metric ton (-/+) € 2,10 million
± 20% / metric ton (-/+) € 4,19 million

Interest rate fluctuation risk

ANEK has entered into agreements for long-term syndicated loans and credit accounts with different banks. Interests for all the above loans are calculated on the basis of the Euribor rate plus a margin. Consequently, the Company is exposed to a rate fluctuation risk, as it will be burdened with extra financial cost in the event of an increase in interest rates. The sensitivity of the results and equity to long term debt rate interest rate changes for the first half of 2017 was as follows:

Change of interest rate Effect in the results and equity
± 0,5% (-/+) € 0,67 million
± 1% (-/+) € 1,34 million

Liquidity risk

Through the aforementioned restructuring of Parent's long-term borrowing is achieved, inter alia, the gradual recovery of working capital. In conjunction with the Group's management efforts to strengthen working capital, such as the further cutting down on operating costs and the settlement of tax liabilities to a later time, the liquidity risk is assessed as limited. However, in order to avoid possible inadequate liquidity, Group's management has placed efforts to secure that there is available bank credit at all times to

cover any extraordinary needs during low liquidity periods. In the event of breaching one or more conditions laid down in the loan agreements entered into by the Group or of the Group's management being unable to secure bank credit in order to cover extraordinary needs under acceptable terms, it may be occurred significantly adverse effect on the Group's business activity, operating results, cash flows and financial position.

Credit risk

Under the existing financial conditions, all companies are facing increased credit risks. The Group is following its customers' balances closely by applying credit control procedures and defining credit limits and specific credit policies for all the customer categories. Where it is necessary, it has obtained additional guarantees to secure the credit granted even more. The accumulative provisions formed have reached the amount of € 32,8 million, and it is considered adequate to deal with credit risk, while, there is significant dispersion of the Group's receivables. Although, that there is a concentration of receivables by the Joint venture, these receivables refer to a large number of debtors (agents, truck companies etc.) that are settled through the Joint venture (as a special scheme) and therefore the risk of concentration is limited. Regarding cash and cash equivalents, the Group is not exposed to any credit risk as there is natural hedging, given that there are also loan agreements entered into with the cooperating financial institutions.

Competition

The vessels of ANEK Group perform itineraries in routes where there is intensive competition, particularly in Greece-Italy and Piraeus-Crete routes. The effort made by each company to retain and increase its market share in the above markets may intensify competition even more, thus having an impact on their financial results. Moreover, as part of its shipping activities, the Group is trying to improve the allocation of vessels per route, optimize the profits acquired from existing (and possible new) routes and set its prices at competitive levels. A potential intensification of competition in the markets where the Group operates may have a significantly adverse effect on the Group's operating results, cash flows and financial position.

Foreign exchange risk

Both the Company and the Group are not exposed to increased foreign exchange risk since most transactions with customers and suppliers abroad are made in euro basis. There is a limited exchange risk caused by the market value of spare parts and other materials, or services procured in foreign currencies, which is small in relation to the total of purchases and expenses.

Regulatory risk

There is a risk of additional costs or investments of any changes in the environmental - regulatory framework related to the operation and supervision of passenger shipping activities of the Group.

ΙV. PROSPECTS FOR THE 2ND HALF OF 2017

The traffic of passengers and vehicles during the summer months of 2017 on the routes of ANEK's activity was quite positive. The Group's prospects at operational level for the second half of 2017 depend on the general course of the economy and the industry, as well as on the evolution of international oil prices. Despite the decline observed since 2015 and on, in the first half of 2017, prices fluctuated at a much higher level than in the comparable period, while fuel costs remain the most important element of the Group's operating cost. Given that the trend of the international oil price is an unpredictable factor, any further assessment of their impact on the results of the year would be arbitrary. Moreover, at the financial level, after the restructuring of Parent's long-term borrowing, borrowing cost for the second half of the year is expected to be significantly lower.

The most important transactions and balances between the Parent Company and its subsidiaries (LANE, ETANAP, LEFKA ORI, AIGAION PELAGOS, ANEK HOLDINGS), its associate (ANEK LINES ITALIA) and its related parties (JV ANEK S.A. & SUPERFAST ENDEKA (HELLAS) INC.), hereinafter "JOINT VENTURE", mainly, pertain to vessels' chartering, tickets issuance commissions, vessel agency, other services and the purchase of bottled water.

INFORMATION AND EXPLANATORY NOTES ON THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE PERIOD 01.01.2017 – 30.06.2017

1. General information for the Company and the Group

The Parent company was established in 1967 (Government Gazette 201/10.04.67) under the corporate name "ANONIMI NAFTILIAKH ETAIREIA KRITIS S.A." trading as "ANEK LINES" (hereinafter "ANEK" or the "Company", or the "Parent company") and is operating in the passenger ferry shipping sector. The Company's seat is located in the municipality of Chania – Crete, and its registered offices are located on 148 Karamanli Ave. ANEK is recorded in General Company Register under number 121557860000 and its website address is www.anek.gr. The Company's shares have been listed since 1999 on the Athens Stock Exchange.

In addition to the Parent company, the Group includes the following subsidiaries and associates with the following participation percentages:

** direct participation: 99% and indirect via ETANAP: 0,48%

The aforementioned companies, in which ANEK participates by more than 50%, as well as "ETANAP" in which the Parent company has the control, have been included in the consolidated financial statements as at 30 th June 2017 using the full consolidation method. "ANEK LINES ITALIA S.r.l." in which the Parent Company participates by 49% was consolidated using the equity method. "ANEK HOLDINGS SA" participates by 100% in "ANEK ENERGY LTD", which has not commenced its activities as of today.

The number of personnel employed as at 30 June 2017 was 810 for the Company (out of which 604 were employed as vessels' crew) and 912 for the Group (out of which 649 were employed as vessels' crew). Respectively, at the end of the comparative period of 2016 the Company had a number of 767 and the Group 875 employees.

The interim financial statements as of 30th June 2017 were approved by the BoD of the Parent Company at the meeting of 27 th September 2017.

2. Preparation basis of the financial statements and accounting principles

The interim separate and consolidated financial statements as of 30 th June, 2017 (hereinafter the "financial statements") have been prepared according to the International Financial Reporting Standards (hereinafter "IFRS"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and adopted by the European Union, and more specifically to the IAS 34 "Interim financial reporting". Therefore, they do not include all the information required for the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the published statements as of 31 December 2016 that have been posted on the Company's website at www.anek.gr.

The basic accounting principles adopted in the preparation of the interim financial statements are the same as those followed in the preparation of the annual financial statements as of 31.12.2016, except for the new standards and interpretations which are applicable after January 1 st 2017. The preparation of financial statements according to IFRS requires that the management makes estimates, assumptions and assessments that affect the assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent receivables and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the published amounts of income and expenses. The actual results may differ from these estimates.

Ability to smoothly continue performing activities (going concern)

The Group's financial statements have been prepared under the principle of going concern. The Group's management estimates that the above assumption is appropriate despite the fact that the total equity of the Company and the Group as of 30.06.2017 is negative by € 5,4 million and € 5,5 million respectively. It is noted that during the last years, with the implementation of specific strategic actions by Group's management, significant cost savings and substantial results' improvement have been achieved, which was reflected in the Group's return to profitability in the year 2015 and in its maintenance in 2016. Furthermore, in March 2017 the Parent's long-term debt restructuring was successfully completed. Under the terms of the new contracts, the repayment was agreed to be done gradually up to 2023, the interest rate burden is significantly lower, while part of the capitalized interest was written off. Through the restructuring of bank borrowings is ensured the financial stability of the Group, the gradual restoration of working capital and the strengthening of the capital structure. The write-off of capitalized interest, combined with the expected operating results for the year 2017, is estimated to be able to restore the ratio of share capital to equity at 31.12.2017. Finally, it is highlighted that due to the seasonality of sales, the operating results of the first half are not indicative of the annual ones.

New standards and interpretations, revisions and amendments

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as the Interpretation Committee has issued a range of new IFRS and interpretations, which either are mandatory for accounting periods starting from January 1st 2017 and thereafter, or are not mandatory, as since the publishing date of the interim financial statements they

have not been adopted from the European Union. The Group has adopted all the new IFRS and interpretations which are mandatory after January 1st 2017 and examines the effect in the financial statements of the potential adoption of the other IFRS and interpretations. The most significant new standards and interpretations are as follows:

(α) New Standards, interpretations, revisions and amendments of existing standards that have been adopted from the European Union and their application is mandatory from 1st January 2017 or after:

There are no new Standards, interpretations, revisions or amendments to existing Standards that have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), adopted by the European Union, and their application is mandatory from or after January 1st 2017.

(β) New standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards that have been published but are not in force and are not adopted earlier by the Group and the Company:

IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers"

In May 2014, the IASB issued a new Standard, IFRS 15. The Standard fully converges with the requirements for the recognition of revenue in both IFRS and US GAAP. The key principles on which the Standard is based are consistent with much of current practice. The new Standard is expected to improve financial reporting by providing a more robust framework for addressing issues as they arise, increasing comparability across industries and capital markets, providing enhanced disclosures and clarifying accounting for contract costs. The new Standard will supersede IAS 11 "Construction Contracts", IAS 18 "Revenue" and several revenue related Interpretations. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its financial statements. The above standard is effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2018 and has not been adopted by the European Union.

IFRS 9 – Financial instruments

In July 2014, the IASB issued the final version of IFRS 9. The package of improvements introduced by the final version of the Standard includes a logical model for classification and measurement, a single, forward-looking "expected loss" impairment model and a substantially-reformed approach to hedge accounting. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above standard is effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2018 and has not been adopted by the European Union.

IFRS 16 "Leases"

In January 2016, the IASB issued a new Standard, IFRS 16. The objective of the project was to develop a new Leases Standard that sets out the principles that both parties to a contract, i.e. the customer ('lessee') and the supplier ('lessor'), apply to provide relevant information about leases in a manner that faithfully represents those transactions. To meet this objective, a lessee is required to recognise assets and liabilities arising from a lease. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above standard is effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2019 and has not been adopted by the European Union.

Amendments to IAS 12: " Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealized Losses"

In January 2016, the IASB published narrow scope amendments to IAS 12. The objective of the amendments is to clarify the accounting for deferred tax assets for unrealized losses on debt instruments measured at fair value. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2017 and have not been adopted by the European Union.

Amendments to IAS 7: "Disclosure Initiative"

In January 2016, the IASB published narrow scope amendments to IAS 7. The objective of the amendments is to enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities. The amendments will require entities to provide disclosures that enable investors to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2017 and have not been adopted by the European Union.

Clarification to IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers"

In April 2016, the IASB published clarifications to IFRS 15. The amendments to IFRS 15 do not change the underlying principles of the Standard, but clarify how those principles should be applied. The amendments clarify how to identify a performance obligation in a contract, how to determine whether a company is a principal or an agent and how to determine whether the revenue from granting a license should be recognized at a point in time or over time. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2018 and have not been adopted by the European Union.

Amendments to IFRS 2: "Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions"

In June 2016, the IASB published narrow scope amendment to IFRS 2. The objective of this amendment is to clarify how to account for certain types of share-based payment transactions. More specifically, the amendments provide requirements on the accounting for the effects of vesting and non-vesting conditions on the measurement of cash-settled share-based payments, for share-based payment transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligation, as well as, a modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash-settled to equity-settled. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2018 and have not been adopted by the European Union.

Amendments to IFRS 4: "Applying IFRS 9 Financial Instruments with IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts"

In In September 2016, the IASB published amendments to IFRS 4. The objective of the amendments is to address the temporary accounting consequences of the different effective dates of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and the forthcoming insurance contracts Standard. The amendments to existing requirements of IFRS 4 permit entities whose predominant activities are connected with insurance to defer the application of IFRS 9 until 2021 (the "temporary exemption") and also permit all issuers of insurance contracts to recognize in other comprehen-

sive income, rather than profit or loss, the volatility that could arise when IFRS 9 is applied before the new insurance contracts Standard is issued (the "overlay approach"). It is not expected for the above to have any impact on the Financial Statements of the Group. The above are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2018 and have not been adopted by the European Union.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs – 2014-2016 Cycle

In December 2016, the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRSs – 2014-2016 Cycle, a collection of amendments to IFRSs, in response to several issues addressed during the 2014-2016 cycle. The issues included in this cycle are the following: IFRS 12: Clarification of the scope of the Standard, IFRS 1: Deletion of short-term exemptions for first-time adopters, IAS 28: Measuring an associate or joint venture at fair value. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1 st 2017 for IFRS 12, and January 1 st 2018 for IFRS 1 and IAS 28. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.

IFRIC 22 "Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration"

In December 2016, the IASB issued a new Interpretation, IFRIC 22. IFRIC 22 provides requirements about which exchange rate to use in reporting foreign currency transactions (such as revenue transactions) when payment is made or received in advance. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2018 and have not been adopted by the European Union.

Amendments to IAS 40: "Transfers of Investment Property"

In December 2016, the IASB published narrow-scope amendments to IAS 40. The objective of the amendments is to reinforce the principle for transfers into, or out of, investment property in IAS 40, to specify that (a) a transfer into, or out of investment property should be made only when there has been a change in use of the property, and (b) such a change in use would involve the assessment of whether the property qualifies as an investment property. That change in use should be supported by evidence. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2018 and have not been adopted by the European Union.

IFRS 17 "Insurance Contracts"

In May 2017, the IASB issued a new Standard, IFRS 17, which replaces an interim Standard, IFRS 4. The aim of the project was to provide a single principle-based standard to account for all types of insurance contracts, including reinsurance contracts that an insurer holds. A single principle-based standard would enhance comparability of financial reporting among entities, jurisdictions and capital markets. IFRS 17 sets out the requirements that an entity should apply in reporting information about insurance contracts it issues and reinsurance contracts it holds. It is not expected for the above to have any impact on the Financial Statements of the Group. The above are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2021 and have not been adopted by the European Un-

ion.

IFRIC 23 "Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments"

In June 2017, the IASB issued a new Interpretation, IFRIC 23. IAS 12 "Income Taxes" specifies how to account for current and deferred tax, but not how to reflect the effects of uncertainty. IFRIC 23 provides requirements that add to the requirements in IAS 12 by specifying how to reflect the effects of uncertainty in accounting for income taxes. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1st 2019 and have not been adopted by the European Union.

3. Seasonal nature of business activities

The activities of Group shipping companies are highly seasonal, which affects the income and results of the interim financial statements. More specifically, the transportation of passengers and vehicles is particularly increased during summer months – due to tourism – and holidays, while the transportation of trucks demonstrates slight fluctuations during the year. Therefore, the highest sales take place during the third quarter of each year (from 01.07 to 30.09), which includes the summer months and the operating results of the first semester are not indicative of the annual results.

4. Segmental information

The basic business activity of the Group is concentrated upon passenger ferry shipping activities, both domestic and abroad. The main sources of revenue are generated from passengers, vehicles and truck fares, as well as other on-board activities (bar, restaurants, stores and casinos). Revenues of non-shipping Group companies are included in the figure "Other activities". The following tables show the geographic allocation of activities of both the Group and the Company for the first half of 2017 and 2016:

Revenue from domestic fares includes income from state subsidies for public services routes amounting to € 4.123 thousand for the Group. In the previous corresponded period the relevant amount was € 4.349 thousand.

Additions, depreciation and net book value of vessels were allocated to geographic activities depending on the time of operation of each vessel in domestic and abroad routes. Any further allocation would be arbitrary, given the fact that the above services and sources of income and cost were resulted from commonly used items of assets and equity and cannot be broken down into segments.

This account of the Group's financial position statement at 30.06.2017 amounted to € 8.105 thousand compared to € 5.587 thousand on 31.12.2016. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include, mainly, units in cooperative banks, non-listed companies shares and mutual funds. During the valuation of the securities, based on their current value as at 30.06.2017, there were resulted profits of € 2,5 million, which are included in the results of investing activities in the statement of comprehensive income.

7. Cash and cash equivalents

The cash and cash equivalents analysis is as follows:

The Group The Company
30.06.17
31.12.16
30.06.17 31.12.16
Cash on hand 2.190 1.776 935 683
Bank accounts 4.575 10.127 3.050 8.221
6.765 11.903 3.985 8.904

The main part of the Group's cash and cash equivalents is in euro.

8. Long term bank borrowings

The total long term loans of the Group as at 30.06.2017 amounted to € 251,4 thousand. A small part of the above amount of € 3,3 million relates to a Parent's bilateral loan concluded in 2014. In March 2017 the restructuring of Parent's long-term borrowing was completed, initially totaling € 264,5 million, which is analyzed as follows:

  • A bond loan with a coalition of banks of a total amount of € 219,9 million (part of which of amount € 22,0 million is conditionally convertible).

  • A bilateral loan of amount € 44,6 million

The new loans were contracted with a floating interest rate (Euribor plus margin), have a maturity of 7 years and their final repayment date is at 31 December 2023.

For the above loans, collateral (mortgages on vessels, divestiture of insurance indemnity, etc.) for the lending banks have been provided. Under the terms of the contracts, the Company has the option of early repayment of these loans without any charge. Loan contracts include cases of termination which include, inter alia, non-timely

payment and non-compliance with the general and financial securing provided. Also, the contracts contain financial clauses that include, inter alia, conditions for maintaining a minimum ratio of borrowing to tangible collateral. In addition, the Company has provided specific securities regarding its compliance with laws and regulations, the maintenance of the nature of business activity, environmental issues and the insurance coverage scheme. The balances of the above loans presented in the statement of financial position have been valued at their nominal value which does not differ materially from their fair value.

The restructuring of the long-term borrowing of the Parent Company resulted in a write-off of capitalized interest of € 15,5 million, which is included in the financial income of the statement of comprehensive income for the first half of 2017.

9. Other long term liabilities

Moreover, the income tax for the Group's non-shipping companies amounted to € 165 thousand,

while an amount of € 50 thousand referred to deferred taxes. The fiscal years of the parent company and subsidiaries not subject to tax audit, are presented in the following table:

"NORMAN ATLANTIC" case

Referring to the development of the case of the incident of the fire in the chartered vessel "NORMAN AT-LANTIC" in December 2014 (see note 29 of the annual financial report of 2014), it is noted that the investigation as to the cause of the incident is in progress by the Italian and Greek judicial authorities. In February 2017 filled before the court of Bari the report of the appointed experts. The above mentioned incident has already brought claims and interim measures to the Greek and Italian courts raised by a significant number of parties' sustained damages against the Company, the owning company and the managers of the vessel, while a significant number of the claims have been settled extrajudicially.

It also decided the partial forfeit (in particular by the amount of € 186 thousand) in favor of the Hellenic State of the letter of guarantee concerning the good execution of the contract in accordance with the

terms of the relevant contract and the invitation to tender. The effect of this fact on the Group's financial statements during the second half of the year is assessed as not significant.

There are no other facts subsequent to June 30th 2017 which could substantially affect the financial position and the results of the Group and the Company, or that should be mentioned in the notes on the financial statements.
