I. Introduction

The signs of stabilization and gradual recovery of the Greek economy continue with a GDP growth of 1.4% (according to the provisional figures of the Hellenic Statistical Authority) for the first time after many years. At the same time, the Hellenic Republic returned to the international markets with the issuance of a five-year bond in July 2017, while the yields of the Greek government bonds are at pre-crisis levels. International credit rating agencies have upgraded Greece's credit rating which, of course, still lags behind the investment grade. To the extent that the agreed stabilization programmes for the Greek economy continue to be implemented, it is estimated that growth will be further boosted in 2018 (also according to the estimates of the Greek and European competent authorities).

As regards the ELLAKTOR Group, the following significant events took place in 2017:

  • AKTOR focused on the completion of concession projects in Greece (Aegean Motorway and Olympia Odos) and on the implementation of projects undertaken, such as the Thessaloniki Metro, the TAP pipeline, the Gold Line Metro project in the State of Qatar and the implementation of road axes in the Balkans. As regards undertaking new projects ,AKTOR undertook in 2017 the railway project "Rehabilitation of the Sub-section 2C: Y END ILTEU - GURASADA and Section 3: GURASADA-SIMERIA" in Romania (in a joint venture with ALSTOM TRANSPORT S.A. and ARCADA COMPANY S.A.) of a total value of EUR 323 million, the rehabilitation of Astir Vouliagmenis hotel to the amount of EUR 68.4 million and the rehabilitation of Faliron Bay - Phase A, of a value of EUR 64 million.
  • With regard to the Concession segment, traffic in the mature concession projects continues to show signs of recovery (e.g. traffic on Attiki Odos in 2017 increased by 3.0%) while the Elefsina-Corinth-Patras-Pyrgos-Tsakona Motorway (a project in which the Group participates by 17%), and the Aegean Motorway, section PATHE Maliakos-Kleidi (a project in which the Group participates by 20%) were completed and delivered in full operation.

  • With regard to the Environment segment, construction work on the project 'Design, Financing, Construction, Maintenance, and Operation of Infrastructures for the Integrated Solid Waste Management System (ISWMS) of the Region of West Macedonia, through a Public - Private Partnership' became fully operational in June 2017. It is reminded that the project, of a total investment of EUR 48 million, is the first Public - Private Partnership (PPP) in the environment sector in Greece. The Contract for the construction, maintenance and 20-year operation of the facilities that will collect and exploit the biogas generated at the Mavrorachi landfill (with capacity of 3.5 MW and total investment budget of EUR 5 million) was signed on 7 September 2017. Finally, HELECTOR S.A. was certified according to ISO 37001:2016 (against corruption and bribery) and is one of the leading companies at European level to receive such certification.

  • With regard to the wind farm segment, in H2 2017 the licensed capacity of Ag. Dynati wind farm was upgraded by 5 MW (from 27.2 MW to 32.2 MW) and the wind farm of the extension of Ag. Dynati, with installed capacity of 2.35 MW on Ag.Dynati mountain, Kefalonia, was put in trial operation. Further, the wind farm "Kalogerovouni-Poulos" with an installed capacity of 17.1 MW, located at the south foot of mount Parnon, within the boundaries of the Municipality of Monemvasia, was also put in trial operation during the same period. Thus, the projects of ELLINIKI TECHNODOMIKI ANEMOS S.A. and its subsidiaries that operated on 31.12.2017 had a total installed capacity of 260.3 MW.

Despite the clear improvement in the economic climate, macroeconomic risks remain for Greece, as there is a need to complete the 4th assessment of the Third Economic Stability Programme, to further stabilize the banking system by de-escalating non-performing loans, and to lift restrictions on capital movement, which have been in force since June 2015 (even though relaxed). Given the above, it is estimated that 2018 will be a challenging year for the Greek economy and, accordingly, for the Group's domestic activities.

The Management continually assesses the situation and its possible impact on the Group, to ensure that all necessary and possible measures and actions are taken in good time, not only to minimize any negative impact but, also, to capitalize on positive developments.

II. Overview of results for 2017

Comment on Key Figures of the 2017 Income Statement and Balance Sheet

The Group's consolidated income for the fiscal year 2017 amounted to EUR 1,865.7 million in total, compared to EUR 1,942.4 million in 2016, a slight decrease of 3.9%. This decrease was mainly attributable to the construction segment, where revenue amounted to EUR 1,509.5 million as compared to EUR 1,552.7 million in 2016, and the environment segment, where revenue amounted to EUR 76.5 million compared to EUR 106.9 million in 2016, mainly due to a decrease in construction projects. The turnover of the concession segment amounted to EUR 222.9 million compared to 230.3 million in 2016, down by 3.2% since the construction object of Moreas project was completed in 2016 and, therefore, there were no construction expenses in 2017. The turnover of wind farms amounted to EUR 49.7 million compared to EUR 45.2 million in 2016, up by 9.9% due to an increase in installed capacity and despite the adverse wind conditions for the period as compared to those of the previous period, while the turnover of the Real Estate Development segment was slightly reduced (3.1%) and stood at EUR 6.8 million compared to EUR 7.0 million in 2016.

Operating results represented losses of EUR 101.6 million in 2017 compared to profits of EUR 31.1 million in 2016. The results of 2017 include profits of EUR 25.8 million, from the reversal of forecasts for heavy maintenance, due to its recalculation in Attiki Odos (concerns the Concession segment), which are, however, encumbered with non-recurring losses of EUR 54.1 million:

  • (a) EUR 23.7 million due to impairment of investment in Athens Resort Casino (Other Activities segment),
  • (b) EUR 26.6 million due to impairment of available-for-sale financial assets in the Construction activity,

(c) forecast for compensation of associate following an arbitral decision of EUR 3.8 million against which invalidity proceedings have been brought (concerns the Environment activity).

Net of the above non-recurring results, operating results for 2017 would amount to losses of EUR 129.9 million compared to correspondingly adjusted operating results of EUR 97.8 million in 2016.

At the level of results before taxes, the Group recorded profits of EUR 39.7 million compared to losses of EUR 37.8 million. The Group recorded losses after taxes of EUR 96.6 million compared to losses of EUR 96.8 million in the previous year.

At balance sheet level, the Group's total cash and cash equivalents as at 31 December 2017 amounted to EUR 510.1 million compared to EUR 496.4 million on 31 December 2016, and equity amounted to EUR 860.2 million compared to EUR 892.4 million on 31 December 2016.

Total borrowings at consolidated level amounted to EUR 1,386.6 million on 31.12.2017 compared to EUR 1,430.1 million on 31.12.2016. Out of total borrowings, the amount of EUR 211.0 million corresponds to shortterm and the amount of EUR 1,175.6 million to long-term borrowings. Total borrowings include amounts from parent company non-recourse debt under co-financed projects, amounting to EUR 545.1 million.

IΙΙ. Development of activities per segment

1. CONSTRUCTION

1.1. Significant events

The Construction segment recorded income of EUR 1,509.5 million during 2017, decreased by 2.8% compared to income of EUR 1,552.7 million in 2016. The operating results of Construction amounted to profits of EUR 5.1 million as compared to losses of EUR 66.9 million in the previous year. The results of the Construction Activity include impairment of available-for-sale financial assets of EUR 26.6 million. Excluding these non-recurring results, adjusted operating results of the construction activity for the financial year 2017 would amount to profits of EUR 31.8 million, compared to correspondingly adjusted operating losses of EUR 17.0 million in the previous year.

At the level of results before taxes for the financial year 2017, losses of EUR 6.4 million were incurred compared to losses of EUR 78.0 million in 2016, while the construction segment had losses after taxes of EUR 24.3 million compared to losses of EUR 107.8 million in 2016.

The auctions of new projects in Greece were limited in 2017. AKTOR focused on the completion of concession projects in Greece (Aegean Motorway and Olympia Odos) and on the progress of the Thessaloniki Metro projects, the construction of the TAP pipeline, the Gold Line Metro project in the State of Qatar and the implementation of road axes in the Balkans. At the same time, emphasis has been placed on developing works in the sector internationally, by capitalizing the accumulated experience and expertise of the Group in the construction of waste water treatment plants and PV parks.

Following are some of the largest contracts signed by AKTOR and its subsidiaries in Greece and abroad in 2017:

  • Undertaking in a joint venture with ALSTOM TRANSPORT S.A. and ARCADA COMPANY S.A. of the railway project "Rehabilitation of the Sub-section 2C: Y END ILTEU - GURASADA and Section 3: GURASADA-SIMERIA" in Romania of a total value of EUR 323 million
  • Astir Vouliagmenis hotel rehabilitation project for the amount of EUR 68.4 million
  • Faliron Bay rehabilitation project Phase Α, of a value of EUR 64 million
  • former hotels Corfu Chandris and Dassia Chandris renovation project (for the amount of EUR 28.0 million)
  • road construction project "Road I/57 Krnov Northeast Bypas" in the Czech Republic in a joint venture with SILNICE CZ for a total amount of EUR 36.4 million

In 2018, ELLAKTOR and its subsidiaries will, inter alia, have signed and will have been awarded the following projects:

  • Tuzla Sewage Biological Treatment in Constantinople of a value of EUR 64.1 million.
  • Work contracts for Egnatia Odos amounting to approximately EUR 60 million in total.
  • Provisional contractor/lowest bidder for Kiato-Rododafni railway line electrification project of approximately EUR 31 million.
  • Construction of new wings at the Heraklion General Hospital "Venizeleio Pananeio", 3rd subproject: "Construction of new wings" of a value of EUR 4.9 million.
  • Renovation of former Ledra hotel of EUR 15 million.

It is also worth mentioning that AKTOR participates (as part of a joint venture) in a railway project tender in Romania of a budget of approximately EUR 700 million, while it has been pre-selected for the second phase of the tender for "Line 4 of Attiko Metro" of a budget of EUR 1.45 billion.

With regard to P/V farm construction project contracts, in 2017 AKTOR continued its construction operations abroad, primarily in Brazil, England and Chile and it has expanded to the markets of Argentina and Australia. Finally, there has been reactivation in the construction of PV and WF production plants in Greece. In particular :

  • In Brazil it completed PV farms with a capacity of approximately 300MWp in the provinces Minas Gerais and Bahia (owned by EDF EN and TOTAL EREN), whereas it is constructing 120MW in the state of Minas Gerais (EDF EN). Please note that in the 1st quarter of 2018 it started to construct 2 additional projects (80ΜW in the state of Minas Gerais and 25MW in the state of Bahia).
  • In Chile it constructed and completed 2 projects whereas it started to construct another 2 (total capacity of 30MWp).
  • In Argentina, the company undertook the construction of a PV plant of 30ΜWp in the city of San Luis which is expected to be completed in the 1st half of 2018.
  • In Australia, the company undertook the construction of 3 PV parks with a capacity of 240MWp (Childers, Susan River and Oakey II) in the state of Queensland which commenced in the 1st quarter of 2018 and are expected to be completed at the end of 2018.
  • In Italy, it undertook the construction of an 18MW project by ΕΝΙ in Sardinia which is expected to be constructed in the 1st half of 2018.
  • In Greece, it started the construction (in the 4th quarter of 2017) of a PV park of 9ΜWp and of a WF with a capacity of 40ΜW which will be completed in 2018.

1.2. Outlook

The backlog of AKTOR and its subsidiaries amounted to EUR 2.0 billion as of 31.12.2017. There are also projects amounting to EUR 437 million, the contracts of which are expected to be signed very soon. Currently, international activities contribute approximately 43% of the income of the construction activity (for 2017), while they represent 50% of the current construction backlog.

1.3. Risks and uncertainties

The delays in tender procedures for new construction projects (public works and concession projects) in Greece and other countries where AKTOR operates have negatively affected progress in relation to the company's construction backlog and may consequently have an impact on its future revenues.

Moreover, international competition makes it difficult to be granted projects in markets, even more so due to the difficulties in accepting letters of guarantee which are issued by Greek banks and which are necessary in order to support the projects.

The above, in combination with the lack of liquidity in the financial sector in Greece, may affect the efforts to cover potential financing needs of the construction activity in the medium and long term.

2. CONCESSIONS

2.1. Significant events

In the financial year 2017 the revenue of the concession segment was EUR 222.9 million as compared to EUR 230.3 million in 2016, down by 3.2%, since there was no construction revenue in 2017 (the construction object of Moreas was completed in 2016) and despite the fact that traffic in the mature concession projects continues to show signs of recovery, e.g.traffic on Attiki Odos increased by 3.0% in 2017 compared to 2016.

The operating results stood at EUR 103.7 million (however, they include reversal of provisions for heavy maintenance of EUR 25.8 million) compared to EUR 83.7 million in 2016. Profits before taxes stood at EUR 79.1 million compared to EUR 52.1 million and net profits after taxes at EUR 54.8 million compared to EUR 32.8 million in 2016.

Emphasis was placed in 2017 on accelerating and completing construction in the concession projects under construction. Thus, the Elefsina-Corinth-Patras-Pyrgos-Tsakona Motorway (a project in which the Group participates by 17%), and the Aegean Motorway, section PATHE Maliakos-Kleidi (a project in which the Group participates by 20%) were completed and delivered in full operation in 2017.

The waste management PPP project of EPADYM S.A. in the Western Macedonia Region was completed and became fully operational in June 2017.

2.2. Outlook

There are significant demands for new infrastructure works in Greece and it is estimated that private funds will contribute to efforts in that direction through concessions and public-private partnerships, particularly given the limited financial resources available to the Greek public sector.

The business plan of the subsidiary AKTOR CONCESSIONS, which is mainly based on the synergies with the other activities of the Group, focuses on:

  • participation in new projects which are implemented under PPP or concession contracts
  • extensions and actions to increase the efficiency of its projects
  • widening its participation through the secondary market

The projects auctioned on which AKTOR CONCESSIONS focuses relate to the:

  • design, construction, financing, operation, maintenance and exploitation of the project: Permanent Undersea Link of Salamina Island
  • Financing, operation, maintenance and exploitation of Egnatia Odos and of the three vertical road axes and
  • granting of the right to use, operate, manage and exploit Alimos Marina
  • Other future projects targeted by AKTOR CONCESSIONS include: study, construction, financing, operation, maintenance and exploitation of the Northern Road Axis of Crete (BOAK) in the Sector Chania – Agios Nikolaos.
  • PPP Waste Projects
  • Attiki Odos extension projects

Please note that the Group – which is a point of reference in the infrastructure sector in Greece - has secured strategic partnerships with international co-investors such as, indicatively, ROADIS (subsidiary of PSP Investments – the leading pension fund of Canada) in the Egnatia Odos concession project, Koc Holding (the largest investment group in Turkey) in the Alimos Marina concession project, and VINCI (one of the largest construction companies internationally) in the Salamina Undersea Link concession project.

Finally, there appear to be significant investment opportunities in the secondary market for existing road concession projects after the recent completion of their construction and taking into account the potential disinvestment intention of existing shareholders. In this framework, the Group intends to consider the potential increase of its participation percentages (and/or a new entry), always based on the profitability of the invested capital and the strengthening of broader synergies.

2.3. Risks and uncertainties

THERMAIKI ODOS S.A., which is consolidated using the equity method, has a recognized claim of EUR 67.9 million against the Greek public sector, following the arbitral decisions in favour of the company in 2010 and 2012, in relation to the termination and suspension of the Concession Contract of the Thessaloniki Underground Tunnel. The Greek public sector filed seven actions for annulment against the above arbitral decisions. The Athens Court of Appeal delivered judgments in relation to these actions, which admitted the actions for reasons of formality (relating to the composition of the arbitration court), without considering the merits of the case. The company has already initiated legal action and estimates, according to the contractual terms and the applicable case-law, that its claim is fully founded and will be recovered from the Greek State.

As regards the projects already in operation, there is a risk, due to the economic situation, of reduction in traffic and, therefore, in the revenues of the projects, even though there has been an upward trend since the beginning of 2015, whereas, in particular in the case of Attiki Odos, the current road use costs are lower than the contractual upper permitted limit which the contractor is entitled to apply.

Uncertainty at a macroeconomic level, as well as the political leadership's disposition to proceed with privatizations or new concession projects, may lead to delays in the implementation of new projects.

Moreover, there is a risk of non securing funds for co-financed/self-financed projects due to the financial crisis in Greece, which is offset by the activation of European funds (e.g. from the Strategic Investment Fund) and by continued funding from the European Investment Bank and from the other international development banks.

Any concurrent implementation of concession projects in the next 1-3 years may affect the Group's ability to secure the award of/finance these projects at the same time, due to financial restrictions relating to the simultaneous coverage of the necessary equity for the projects.

3. ENVIRONMENT

3.1. Significant events

The turnover of the Environment segment stood at EUR 76.5 million in 2017, decreased by 28.4% compared to income of EUR 106.9 million in 2016, mainly due to the segment's subdued construction activity. Operating results represented losses of EUR 0.6 million compared to profits of EUR 5.0 million in 2016. The results have been negatively affected by the reversal of the profitability of construction contracts, the provision for compensation following an arbitral decision against which an action for annulment has been brought before the Athens Court of Appeal and the increase cost of disposal of secondary products in Germany. Results before taxes represented losses of EUR 0.8 million compared to profits of EUR 3.4 million in 2016, while results after taxes represented losses of EUR 4.5 million compared to losses of EUR 1.2 million in 2016.

As mentioned, the first PPP waste management project in Greece in the Western Macedonia Region of EPADYM SA became operational in June 2017. The project includes a Waste Treatment Plant (WTP) with an annual capacity of 120,000 tons, a residue landfill, 10 Waste Transshipment Stations (WTS), nine of which already exist, and an Environmental Information - Training Centre. The total investment amounts to EUR 48 million and is cofinanced by the European Investment Bank, the Jessica, the National Bank of Greece and own funds of AKTOR CONCESSIONS S.A. and HELECTOR S.A.

Moreover, the project "Construction of the County Waste Management Centre Kastijun, County of Istria" was completed in Croatia in 2017.

In September 2017, HELECTOR SA was certified according to ISO 37001:2016 (against corruption and bribery) and is one of the leading companies at Pan-European level to receive such certification.

The following contracts were signed in 2017:

  • The sub-contract for the implementation of Phase C of the Project "Design, build and operate a solid waste disposal facility" was signed on 27/12/2017. A landfill gas recovery and power generation system in the existing Ghabawi Landfill, Amman, Jordan (23/1/2010)" of a budget of EUR 8.2 million which is implemented through the joint venture JV HELECTOR SA - CONSTRUCTION COMPANY CHRISTOPHER D. CONSTANTINIDIS (49% participation by HELECTOR) was signed on 27/12/2017.
  • The Contract for the construction, maintenance and 20-year operation of the facilities that will collect and exploit the biogas generated at the Mavrorachi landfill (with capacity of 3.5 MW and total investment budget of EUR 5 million) was signed on 7/9/2017.
  • On 22/02/2017 a contract was signed through the joint venture JV HELECTOR SA MICHANIKI PERIVALLONDOS SA (50% participation by HELECTOR) for the management of Polygyros and Anthemounda landfills of a total value of EUR 6.1 million including an option.

  • The contract "B phase cell configuration works" in Phylis OEDA of a total value of EUR 4.2 million was signed on 28/12/2017.

In addition, other smaller projects of a total value of EUR 4.1 million were undertaken.

Finally, the contract "Operation of an Urban Solid Waste Treatment Plant" which relates to the management of the urban solid waste of Kalamata of a budget of EUR 5.0 million was signed on 2/1/2018 and at the beginning of 2018 the joint venture HELECTOR SA – Thalis (HELECTOR SA 60%) was awarded, on a temporary basis, the project "Provision of biogas collection and exploitation services at the landfill of the Western Macedonia integrated waste management facilities for the generation of electricity" with an estimated capacity of 1 MW.

3.2. Outlook

Environment remains a segment of particular interest both in Greece and abroad. The obligation of Greece to adapt to EU requirements regarding waste management, the fines imposed on it for keeping illegal landfills, and atypical and high-cost solutions adopted in absence of an overall design, are factors that require the application of modern waste management methods, and, hence, the development of the sector in the country.

In terms of activities abroad, HELECTOR aims at expanding its operations in the greater geographical area of interest, which includes, in addition to Germany, the Eastern Europe and Middle East countries. In addition, HELECTOR is now considering penetration in the markets of the US and China, as these two markets are considered to be strategic, not only due to their size but also due to their attractiveness, also considering the compatibility of the company's available know-how in waste management.

The current backlog of HELECTOR from contracts and construction projects (including those signed after 31.12.2017) amounts to EUR 41.5 million.

3.3. Risks and uncertainties

On 15.06.2016, Helector Cyprus Ltd (a wholly-owned subsidiary of HELECTOR) was indicted for alleged unlawful practices of its former officers in the context of its activities in the Republic of Cyprus. If the company is

convicted, penalties (e.g. a fine) will be imposed, which are, however, not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's financial position. It is reminded that the Group's consolidated financial statements for 2015 included provisions of EUR 10 million relating to the potential risk of termination of the company's concession contract in Cyprus. Advanced discussions have been carried out on the conclusion of a supplementary agreement on the operation of the Integrated Waste Management Facility (OEDA) of Kosii, which, according to oral statements of competent government officials, has been approved in principle at a meeting of the Republic of Cyprus Central Committee on Changes and Claims. The Management of the Group therefore estimates that discussions will soon result in a final agreement settling the matter.

It is undoubtedly necessary to upgrade the domestic waste management infrastructure, but changes to design plans for implementation of new waste management projects in Greece have adversely affected the time schedule pertaining to tenders for new projects. It is also noted that the available funds from the NSRF 2014-2020 for waste management projects are clearly below the total required investment level, assessed at approximately EUR 1.5 billion.

In addition, the current dire straits and the limited liquidity from banks have made the funding of co-financed environmental projects more expensive and difficult.

Finally, another major risk for the sector can be identified in reactions of local communities and petitions filed with the Council of State in relation to landfills and waste treatment plants, as well as in the time-consuming procedures for the issue of permits and the approval of environmental conditions.

4. WIND FARMS

4.1. Significant events

As at 31.12.2017, the total installed capacity of ELLINIKI TECHNODOMIKI ANEMOS and its subsidiaries was 260.30 MW. The wind farm of Pefkia, Viotia, with an installed capacity of 9.9 MW is currently in trial operation, while six (6) wind farms with a total installed capacity of 187.1 MW are under construction. There are also RES projects (mainly Wind Farms) with a capacity of 472 MW, at various stages of the licensing process.

The production of electricity in 2017 reached 547 GWh fed into the grid, increased by 10.7% in relation to 2016, due to the increased installed capacity and despite the adverse wind conditions for the period compared to those in the previous year, as shown by the Company's average annual capacity factor1 for 2017, which amounted to 25.3% compared to 26.9% in 2016.

The turnover of the Wind Farm segment stood for 2017 at EUR 49.7 million compared to EUR 45.2 million for 2016, increased by 9.9% due to increased installed capacity despite the adverse wind conditions of the period. The operating results amounted to EUR 21.9 million as compared to EUR 21.7 million in the previous year, up by 1.1%. The operating profit margin (EBIT Margin) for the financial year 2017 stood at 44.1%. Profits before taxes stood at EUR 12.6 million compared to EUR 15.3 million in 2016 and profist after taxes to EUR 9.6 million compared to EUR 10.6 million.

1 Capacity Factor is the quotient of the electricity generated during the year to the maximum energy which could theoretically be generated in the year given that plants operated at 100% of their capacity.

4.2. Outlook

The outlook for the market of renewable energy sources in Greece stays positive. Taking into account the country's international obligations, there must be an increase in the installed capacity of wind farms from 2,652 MW at the end of 2017 (HWEA, Wind Energy Statistics – 2017) to about 7,500MW in 2020. According to the estimates of the Ministry of Environment and Energy, as they are formulated in the 'Description of Operating Aid Scheme in the sectors of RES and cogeneration of high-efficiency heat and power' (Feb. 2016), 2,200 to 2,700

MW of new RES projects are expected to be installed within the period from 2016 to 2020, the vast majority of which are wind farms. The new operating aid scheme for RES projects, in accordance with Law 4414/2016, provides for a change to the pricing scheme from Feed-in-Tariff to Feed-in-Premium and a mechanism of optimal accuracy of capacity provision until complete assumption of the balancing responsibility by the RES producers, but retains the priority to dispatching and 20-year contracts for the sale of electricity (SEDP), which provide a significant incentive for accelerating project implementation, given that the applicable tariffs under the SEDP to be signed from 2018 onward will be determined by tendering procedures.

In this context, the subsidiary's priority is to implement new wind farms with capacity of 187.1 MW whereas it continues the licensing procedure for the development of all the projects of its portfolio. Priorities are regularly assessed and revised in conjunction with the progress recorded in the licensing process, the primary criterion being the fastest possible implementation of those projects that are 'mature' in terms of licensing. At the same time, the subsidiary is getting ready for the tenders provided for in Law 4414/2016 on the one hand, and for its effective participation in the new manner of operation of the RES market (Day-Ahead Scheduling) on the other hand.

4.3. Risks and uncertainties

The uncertainty stemming from the fiscal crisis and recession in Greece, but also the developments in the domestic electricity market given the problems facing the dominant company of the sector, may have a negative impact on business activity and the segment's operating results and financial position.

The main customers of the wind farm activity are HEDNO and LAGIE. The liquidity problems faced by LAGIE and HEDNO resulted in the passing of Law 4414/2016, based on which it is anticipated, among others, that the income of the Special Account of RES & Cogeneration of high efficiency heat and power will be restructured and reinforced. Under these measures the deficit of this account was gradually eliminated and, in fact, a surplus was achieved at the end of 2017 (EUR 42.5 million, RES & CHP Special Account Monthly Bulletin of Interconnected System & Network, LAGIE SA, Dec. 2017). However, the risk has not yet been permanently eliminated and may adversely affect the financial situation and results of the activity.

Despite the progress made in recent years, the RES segment is still facing challenges due to the complicated and bureaucratic licensing procedures required for the development and operation of new projects, as well as due to appeals lodged with Hellenic Council of State, possibly resulting in delaying significantly and/or preventing the implementation of projects. Moreover, any changes to the institutional framework could adversely impact the Group's operating profits/(loss) and the company's capacity to fund new RES projects.

Another significant source of risk is the lack of cadastral maps, property titles and designation of land used for project construction as public or private.

Dependence on weather conditions which are, by nature, unsteady and vary from year to year leads to fluctuations in electricity generation and in income for the segment.

5. REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT

5.1. Significant events

The Group's real estate development segment recorded income amounting to EUR 6.8 million for 2017, compared to EUR 7.0 million for 2016. The operating result represented losses of EUR 1.3 million (which includes impairment of investment properties of EUR 1.2 million) compared to profits of EUR 0.6 million in 2016 (which included impairment of investment properties of EUR 1.5 million). Results after tax stood at EUR 3.6 million compared to losses of EUR 2.2 million in 2016.

Currently, the main activity of the segment is the operation of the "Smart Park" commercial park on the property of the subsidiary "YIALOU EMPORIKI & TOURISTIKI SA", in Yialou, Spata-Attica. Despite the decline in retail activities posted by organized establishments, "Smart Park" figures remained positive in 2017, with 100% of its surface being leased by well-known retail companies.

5.2. Outlook

The Group is now focusing on expanding Phase B of "Smart Park", with a buildable surface area of approximately 15,500 m2 , and is awaiting the expected urban planning approval to be authorized by Presidential Decree for a property in Kantza with a buildable surface area of approximately 95,000 m2 , and it is also considering resuming property development in Romania due to signs of recovery of its economy.

5.3. Risks and uncertainties

Although prolonged macroeconomic uncertainty in Greece weighs negatively on consumer expenditure, the lease portfolio of "Smart Park" remains strong and healthy. The Park has shown a significant rise in recent years and has successfully addressed the financial crisis during its six-year operation, which makes it one of the most successful commercial real estate organized establishments. However, it cannot be ruled out that the prolonged macroeconomic crisis in Greece could negatively affect the results of the Smart Park tenants and, therefore, give rise to the possibility of renegotiations with the tenants which is estimated not to affect fulfillment of their obligations.

Finally, if demand for real estate does not increase after all, there is a high risk that delays will be seen in the development of the Group's real estate in Greece and Romania.

6. OTHER

Thermoelectric plants

The Group participates in ELPEDISON POWER through its subsidiary HELLENIC ENERGY & DEVELOPMENT SA (HE&D), which operates two privately-owned, ultra-modern CHP plants in Thessaloniki (390 MW) and Thisvi, Viotia (421 MW), and is active, at the same time, in the sale of energy to final consumers.

Total electricity production of the company's plants amounted to 2.58 TWh compared to 2.21 TWh in 2016, up by 10%. The trend for increased electricity production by ELPEDISON POWER plants is expected to continue through 2018 as well. In the retail sector electricity sales to final consumers stood at 1.65 TWh, up by 63% compared to 2016.

Income stood at EUR 414.3 million compared to EUR 322.2 million in 2016, mainly as a result of higher electricity production, but also due to increased proceeds from the supply of electricity to final consumers. Operating results corresponded to profits of EUR 2.8 million compared to losses of EUR 4.2 million in 2016, while results after tax stood at losses of EUR 12.0 million compared to losses of EUR 18.1 million in 2016.

Casinos

The turnover of the company HELLINIKO CASINO PARNITHAS stood at EUR 84.2 millionin 2017 compared to EUR 87.7 million. in 2016. Operating results represented losses of EUR 1.6 million, in 2017 compared to profits of EUR 1.7 million in 2016. The earnings before tax were losses of EUR 1.7 million compared to profits of EUR 1.4 million in the previous year, whereas net profits were losses of EUR 1.8 million compared to profits of EUR 0.8 million.

Please note that, according to the financial statements of 2017 the Group proceeded to impairment of its investment in REGENCY CASINO MONT PARNES by EUR 23.7 million, whereas in January 2018 it sold its holding in the company for the amount of EUR 13.5 million.

IV. Non-financial assets

C. Audit Report of Independent Certified Public Auditor-Accountant

Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter
At 31 December 2017, the Company had
investments in subsidiaries of C738.1 mn.
Management assesses on an annual basis whether
there are any impairment indicators with regard to
investments in subsidiaries and where an
impairment provision is required, the amount of
the impairment is calculated as the difference
between the recoverable amount of the investment
and its carrying amount.
Management determines the recoverable amount
of each investment to be the higher of value in use
and fair value less costs to sell, according to the
provisions of International Accounting Standard
36.
Determining the recoverable amount of an
investment in a subsidiary mainly depends on the
future operating cash flows of the subsidiary as well
as other key assumptions made by Management,
which are also described in key audit matter
"Impairment assessment of goodwill" above.
We focused on this area due to the significant
amount of the investments in subsidiaries and also
due to the assumptions and estimates used by
Management to determine the recoverable amount
of these investments.
In the year ended 31 December 2017, an
impairment charge of C2.7 mn was recognised in
the separate financial statements for investments
in subsidiaries, as disclosed in Note 9 of the
separate financial statements.
We evaluated Management's estimates and
$\overline{\phantom{a}}$
conclusions with regard to the existence of
impairment indicators in the investments in
subsidiaries.
We evaluated Management's analysis, according
to which the recoverable amount of investments
in subsidiaries, for which an impairment test was
performed, is based on the present value of
subsidiaries' future cash flows.
The procedures performed for the determination
of the recoverable amount were the same as
those described in the key audit matter
"Impairment assessment of goodwill" above.
We verified that the impairment recognised in
other investments in subsidiaries is consistent
with the adjustment performed on their assets at
the end of the year.
Based on the aforementioned audit procedures,
we found that the estimation of the recoverable
amount was based on reasonable assumptions.
Going concern basis of accounting for the
Group
(Notes 2.1.1 and 2.1.2 of the Consolidated
Financial Statements )
As explained in Note 2.1.1, the financial statements
of the Group have been prepared on a going
concern basis.
Following the completion of large infrastructure
projects in Greece, a decline is expected in the
tendering of new projects in the near future in
Greece which could potentially impact the Group's
turnover. The turnover of the construction segment
accounts for approximately 80% of total turnover,
We performed audit procedures to understand
the Group's review process regarding the going

Notes to the financial statements

1 General information

The Group operates via its subsidiaries, mainly in construction & quarries, real estate development and management, wind power, environment and concession segments. The Group's investments are detailed in note 42. The Group operates abroad in the Middle East countries, and, more specifically, in the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and Jordan, as well as in other countries, such as Albania, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Germany, Italy, Croatia, Cyprus, FYROM, Russia, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia, the Czech Republic, the United Kingdom, Cameroon, Ethiopia, Turkey, USA, Argentina, Brazil, the Dominican Republic, Colombia, Panama, Chile, and Australia.

ELLAKTOR S.A. (the Company) was incorporated and is established in Greece with registered and central offices at 25 Ermou St, 145 64, Kifissia, Attica.

The Company's shares are traded on the Athens Stock Exchange.

These annual consolidated and corporate financial statements (hereinafter referred to as "financial statements") of 31.12.2107 were approved by the Board of Directors on 26 April 2018 and are subject to approval by the General Meeting of Shareholders. They are available on the Company's website www.ellaktor.com, section "Financial Data", sub-section "Group's Financial Statements".

The financial statements of consolidated companies are posted online at www.ellaktor.com, in the section "Financial Figures", sub-section "Financial Statements/Subsidiaries".

2 Summary of significant accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation of the financial statements

The basic accounting principles applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These principles have been consistently applied to all years presented, unless otherwise stated.

These consolidated and company financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), as they have been endorsed by the European Union. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the available-for-sale financial assets at fair value through profit and loss (including derivatives) valued at fair value.

The preparation of the financial statements under IFRS requires the use of accounting estimates and assumptions by the Management in implementing the accounting policies adopted. The areas involving extensive judgment or complexity, or where assumptions and estimates have a significant impact on the financial statements are mentioned in Note 4.

2.1.1 Going Concern

The financial statements as of 31 December 2017 were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and provide a reasonable presentation of the financial position, profit and loss, and cash flows of the Group, in accordance with the going concern principle.

Management continuously evaluates the conditions and potential effects on the Group's operations in order to ensure the going concern principle. The decrease in the auctions of new projects at home and intense competition put pressure on the Group's profitability. At the same time, restriction on the credit limits and on the limits of letters of guarantee may affect the ability to undertake new projects to replenish the backlog.

The Management of the Group receives information from the individual branches of activity concerning the estimated operating performance and future cash flows and has developed, on the basis of this activity, action plans for the optimal management of the available liquidity and future cash flows, in order to meet the obligations of the branches of activity without any difficulties. Moreover, in addition to its basic planning, the Management considers different scenarios and alternatives, such as discussions on loan restructuring and valuation of its assets. In view of the above, the Management estimates that it has ensured the principle of going concern of the Group and, therefore, its financial statements have been prepared on the going concern accounting basis.

2.1.2. Macroeconomic conditions in Greece

The signs of stabilization and gradual recovery of the Greek economy continued in 2017 with a GDP growth of 1.4% (according to the provisional figures of the Hellenic Statistical Authority) for the first time after many years. At the same time, the Hellenic Republic returned to the international markets with the issuance of a five-year bond in July 2017, while the yields of the Greek government bonds are at pre-crisis levels. International credit rating agencies have upgraded Greece's credit rating which, of course, still lags behind the investment grade. To the extent that the agreed stabilization programmes for the Greek economy continue to be implemented, it is estimated that growth will be further boosted in 2018 (also according to the estimates of the Greek and European competent authorities).

Despite the clear improvement in the economic climate, macroeconomic risks remain for Greece. Any delays in the completion of the fourth assessment may have a negative impact on the macroeconomic climate and increase uncertainty, while there is a risk that the expected economic recovery might be limited due to over-taxation. At the same time, the restrictions on capital movement which were imposed in Greece on 28 June 2015 are still in force (even though relaxed), which also affects the economic environment. The need to stabilize the banking system by de-escalating non-performing loans remains. Finally, geopolitical tensions, which have increased, may also affect the Greek environment. Given the above, it is estimated that 2018 will be a challenging year for the Greek economy and, accordingly, for the Group's domestic activities.

The major risks that the Group might be faced with due to its exposure in Greece include the slower pace in the execution of works and difficulties in assuming new projects, the inability to recover receivables and the impairment of tangible and intangible assets and, lastly, difficulties in securing low rates to finance Group activities.

The Management continually assesses the situation and its possible consequences on the Group, to ensure that all necessary and possible measures and actions are taken in good time to minimise any negative impact.

2.2 New standards, amendments to standards and interpretations

Certain new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued that are mandatory for periods beginning during the current financial year and subsequent years. 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

IAS 7 (Amendments) "Disclosure initiative"

These amendments require entities to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities.

IAS 12 (Amendments) "Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealized Losses"

These amendments clarify the accounting for deferred tax assets for unrealized losses on debt instruments measured at fair value.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs (2014 – 2016 Cycle)

IFRS 12 "Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities"

The amendment clarified that the disclosures requirement of IFRS 12 are applicable to interest in entities classified as held for sale except for summarized financial information.

Standards and Interpretations effective for subsequent periods that have not entered in effect and have not been endorsed by the Group and the Company earlier.

IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" and subsequent amendments to IFRS 9, IFRS7 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

IFRS 9 has replaced the provisions of IAS 39 on the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities and has also included an expected credit loss model, in replacement of the incurred impairment model used today. IFRS 9 establishes a more principles-based approach to hedge accounting and addresses inconsistencies and weaknesses in the current model of IAS 39.

The Management estimates that the impact on the financial assets and financial obligations of the Group and of the Company when IFRS 9 is applied for the first time are not expected to be material. In particular:

Trade and other receivables

The examination of the business model and cash flow characteristics does not affect the classification and measurement of the trade and other receivables of the Group and of the Company, which will continue to be valued at unamortized cost.

Available-for-sale financial assets

The available-for-sale financial assets of EUR 21,595 thousand and EUR 11,064 thousand on 31.12.2017, which consist of listed securities and money market funds respectively, will continue to be classified and measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. The available-for-sale financial assets of EUR 16,213 thousand on 31.12.2017, which consist of non-listed securities in Greece and are measured at cost, will be classified and measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and the impact is not expected to be material.

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, of EUR 1,000 on 31.12.2017, which consist of listed securities, will continue to be classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss.

Impairment

According to the estimate of the impact of the new impairment model on the financial statements of the Group and of the Company as regards trade receivables and other financial assets, the Group and the Company are not expected to recognize a significant increase in the provision for doubtful debts due to the application of the new expected loss model.

IFRS 9 (Amendments) "Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The amendments allow companies to measure particular prepayable financial assets with so-called negative compensation at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income if a specified condition is met—instead of at fair value through profit or loss.

IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

IFRS 15 was issued in May 2014. The objective of the standard is to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers, in order to improve comparability within industries, across industries, and across capital markets. It contains principles that an entity will apply to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when it is recognized. The underlying principle is that an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The Group and the Company will adopt the new standard on 1 January 2018 using the modified retrospective method, namely the impact of the transition will be collectively recognized in "Profits carried forward", whereas the comparative amounts will not be restated. In the current year 2017, the Management of the Group and of the Company started to carry out a sample check on contracts concluded with major customers, which will be completed in the following year. The assessment of results up to the date of preparation of the financial statements have not shown that no significant adjustment will be necessary during transition to the new standard. Management will complete the assessment procedure in 2018 in order to finalise this impact.

IFRS 16 "Leases" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

IFRS 16 has been issued in January 2016 and supersedes IAS 17. The objective of the standard is to ensure the lessees and lessors provide relevant information in a manner that faithfully represents those transactions. IFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently. At this stage, the Group and the Company cannot assess the impact of the new standard on their financial statements since they have not finalised all details of their assessment with regard to the implementation of the IFRS 16. The Group and the Company plan to adopt the new standard on the date on which it must be applied (01.01.2019).

IAS 40 (Amendments) "Transfers of Investment Property" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

The amendments clarify that, to transfer to or from, investment properties, there must be a change in use. To conclude if a property has changed use there should be an assessment of whether the property meets the definition and the change must be supported by evidence.

IAS 28 (Amendments) "Long term interests in associates and joint ventures" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The amendments clarify that companies account for long-term interests in an associate or joint venture—to which the equity method is not applied—using IFRS 9. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRIC 22 "Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

The interpretation provides guidance on how to determine the date of the transaction in applying the foreign currency transactions standard - IAS 21. The interpretation applies where an entity either pays or receives consideration in advance for foreign currency-denominated contracts.

IFRIC 23 "Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The interpretation explains how to recognize and measure deferred and current income tax assets and liabilities where there is uncertainty over a tax treatment. IFRIC 23 applies to all aspects of income tax accounting where there is such uncertainty, including taxable profit or loss, the tax bases of assets and liabilities, tax losses and credits and tax rates. The interpretation has not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IAS 19 (Amendments) "Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The amendments specify how companies determine pension expenses when changes to a defined benefit pension plan occur. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs (2014 – 2016 Cycle)

IAS 28 "Investments in associates and Joint ventures" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

The amendments clarified that when venture capital organizations, mutual funds, unit trusts and similar entities use the election to measure their investments in associates or joint ventures at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), this election should be made separately for each associate or joint venture at initial recognition.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs (2015 – 2017 Cycle) (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

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

IFRS 3 'Business combinations'

The amendments clarify that a company remeasures its previously held interest in a joint operation when it obtains control of the business.

IFRS 11 "Joint Arrangements"

The amendments clarify that a company does not remeasure its previously held interest in a joint operation when it obtains joint control of the business.

IAS 12 Income Taxes

The amendments clarify that a company accounts for all income tax consequences of dividend payments in the same way.

IAS 23 "Borrowing costs"

The amendments clarify that a company treats as part of general borrowings any borrowing originally made to develop an asset when the asset is ready for its intended use or sale.

2.3 Consolidation

(a) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are economic entities over which the Group exercises control of their operation. The Group controls a company when exposed to or has rights in variable performances of the company, due to its holding in this company, and has the ability to affect these performances through its power in this company. The existence and effect of voting rights that can be exercised or converted are also taken into account to document that the Group is in control of the economic entity. There may also be control in cases where the holding in the share capital with voting rights is less than 50%, but the Group is able to exercise control over the financial and business policies on a de facto basis. There is de facto control where the number of voting rights held by the Group, in relation to the number and allocation of the rights held by other shareholders, enable the Group to exercise control over the financial and business policies.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date when control over them is acquired and cease to be consolidated from the date when control no longer exists.

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. Acquisition cost is calculated as the fair value of the assets assigned, of obligations undertaken or in place, and of the equity instruments issued as of the date of transaction. The acquisition cost includes the fair value of the assets or liabilities arising from contingent consideration arrangements. The individual assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that are acquired during a business combination are valued initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognizes a controlling interest in the subsidiary, if any, either at the fair value or at the value of the share of the noncontrolling interest in the net worth of the acquired company. The Group recognizes non-controlling interests in proportion to the subsidiary's equity. The acquisition costs are posted in profit and loss as incurred.

In a business combination achieved in stages, the acquirer shall remeasure its equity interest previously held in the acquiree at fair value at the acquisition date and recognize any gain or loss in income.

Any contingent consideration to be paid by the Group is recognized initially at fair value at the acquisition date. Any changes in fair value of contingent consideration that qualify for classification as an asset or liability are recognized in accordance with IAS 39 either in profit or loss or as effect on other comprehensive income. A contingent consideration recognized as equity is not revalued and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.

When the sum of (a) the cost of acquisition, (b) the amount recognized as non-controlling interests and (c) the fair value at the acquisition date of the Group's share, if the combination is achieved in stages, is greater than the net assets acquired, the excess is recognized as goodwill. If the above sum is less than the fair value of the net assets acquired, the difference is recognized directly in profit or loss.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated, except if the transaction provides an indication of impairment of the transferred asset. The accounting principles of the subsidiaries have been amended so as to be in conformity with the ones adopted by the Group. In the parent company's Statement of Financial Position, subsidiaries are valued at cost less impairment.

(b) Changes to holdings in subsidiaries without loss of control

Any transactions with minority shareholders having no effect on the control exercised by the Group over the subsidiary are measured and recorded as equity transactions, i.e. they are handled in the same way as that followed for transactions with key Group shareholders. The difference between the price paid and the relevant share acquired in the carrying value of the subsidiary's equity is deducted from equity. Any profit or loss arising from the sale to majority shareholders is also posted under equity.

(c) Sale of / loss of control over the subsidiary

As soon as the Group ceases to exercise control on a subsidiary, the remaining percentage is measured at fair value, and any differences are posted in results. Subsequently, this asset is classified as an associate or financial asset, its acquisition value being that fair value. In addition, any amounts previously recorded under Other

Comprehensive Income will be accounted for as in the case of sale of a subsidiary, and therefore may be accounted for in profit or loss.

(d) Associates

Associates are economic entities on which the Group can exercise significant influence but not "control", which is generally the case when the Group holds a percentage between 20% and 50% of a company's voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. In accordance with the equity method, an investment in an associate is recognized initially at acquisition cost, and the carrying value increases or decreases in order for the investor's share to be recognized in the associate's profit or loss following the date of acquisition. The "Investments in associates" account also includes the goodwill resulting on acquisition (reduced by any impairment losses).

In case of sale of a holding in an associate on which the Group continues, however, to exercise significant influence, only the portion of amounts previously posted directly in Other Comprehensive Income will be posted in results.

Following the acquisition, the Group's share in the gains or losses of associates is recognized in the income statement, while the share of changes in Other Comprehensive Income following the acquisition is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. The cumulative changes after the acquisition affect the book value of investments in associates, with a respective adjustment to the current value of the investment. When the Group's share in the losses of an associate is equal or larger than the carrying amount of the investment, the Group does not recognize any further losses, unless it has guaranteed for liabilities or made payments on behalf of the associate.

The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is evidence of impairment of investments in associates. If any investment must be impaired, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the investment and its book value.

Unrealized profits from transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated, according to the Group's percentage ownership in the associates. Unrealized losses are eliminated, except if the transaction provides indications of impairment of the transferred asset. The accounting principles of associates have been adjusted in order to be in conformity to the ones adopted by the Group. In the parent company's balance sheet, associates are valued at cost less impairment.

(e) Joint Arrangements

According to IFRS 11, the types of joint arrangements are reduced to two: joint operations and joint ventures. The classification depends on the rights and obligations of the parties with regard to the agreement and takes into account the structure and legal form of the agreement, the terms agreed upon by the parties and, where appropriate, other facts and circumstances.

Joint operations are the joint agreements where the parties (participants), which have joint control, have rights on the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement. The participants shall account for the assets and liabilities (as well as the revenues and expenses) relating to their interest in the joint operation.

Joint ventures are joint arrangements where the parties (venturers), which have joint control on the agreements, have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. These undertakings are accounted for under the equity method (proportional consolidation is no longer allowed).

Under IAS 31, the Group accounted for the joint agreements in which it participated by using the proportionate consolidation method. Exceptions were those which were inactive on the date of first IFRS adoption, or were not important, which were consolidated using the equity method. These agreements, following the implementation of IFRS 11, will continue to be consolidated by the Group under the equity method until their final clearance.

The key joint arrangements where the Group participates pertain to the execution of construction contracts through jointly controlled vehicles. These joint arrangements are classified as joint operations because their legal form offers the parties immediate rights to assets, and makes them liable for the liabilities. According to IFRS 11,

the Group accounts for assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses based on its share in the joint operations. Note 41c presents in detail the share in the joint operations of the Group.

The Group has classified in joint ventures the companies shown in Note 41b (together with the associates) in which the participating parties have rights in the net assets of the companies and are thus consolidated by using the equity method in accordance with IAS 28.

The Statement of Financial Position of the parent company does not include joint arrangements.

2.4 Reports by segment

Reports by segment are prepared in line with the internal financial reports provided to the Chairman, the Managing Director and other executives of the Board of Directors, who are mainly responsible for decisionmaking. The key persons responsible for decision-making undertake to establish a strategy, allocate resources and evaluate the performance of each business segment.

2.5 Foreign exchange conversions

(a) Functional and presentation currency

The items in the financial statements of the Group's companies are measured in the currency of the primary economic environment in which each Company operates (functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are reported in euros, which is the presentation currency of the Group.

(b) Transactions and balances

Currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Profits and losses from currency translation differences that arise from the settlement of such transactions during the financial year and from the translation of monetary items into foreign exchange at current rates applicable on the balance sheet date are recorded in profit and loss, except where they are transferred directly to Other comprehensive income due to being related to cash flow hedges and net investment hedges.

Any changes to the fair value of financial securities in foreign currency designated as available for sale are broken down into currency translation differences from a change to the net value of the security and other changes due to book value. Currency translation differences are deleted from profit and loss, and other differences are transferred to other comprehensive income.

Currency translation differences from non-monetary items that are valued at their fair value are considered as part of their fair value and are thus treated similarly to fair value differences. Currency translation differences in nonfinancial assets and liabilities, such as shares classified as available for sale are included in Other Comprehensive Income.

(c) Group Companies

The results and financial position of all group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

  • i) The assets and liabilities are converted using the rates in effect at the balance sheet date;
  • ii) The income and expenses are converted using the average rates of the period (except if the average rate is not the reasonable approach of the accumulated impact of the rates in effect at the dates of the transactions, in which case income and expenses are converted using the rates in effect at the dates of the transactions) and
  • iii) Any differences arising from this process are posted under other comprehensive income and are transferred to the income statement upon disposal of these companies.

Currency translation differences arising from the conversion of the net investment in a foreign company, as well as of the borrowing characterized as hedging of this investment are posted under Other Comprehensive Income. Upon disposal of a foreign company in part or in whole, accumulated exchange differences are transferred to the income statement of the period as profit or loss resulting from the sale.

Gains and changes to fair value from the acquisition of foreign companies are deemed to be assets and liabilities of the foreign company and are measured at the currency rate applicable on the balance sheet date. The resulting foreign exchange differences are recorded in Other comprehensive income.

2.6 Investment property

Properties held under long-lasting leases or capital gains or both and not used by Group companies are classified as investments in property. Investment property includes privately owned plots and buildings, as well as properties under construction which are built or developed with a view to being used as investment property in the future.

Investment property is recognized initially at cost, including the relevant direct acquisition and borrowing costs. Borrowing costs relating to acquisition or construction of investment property are capitalized to the investment cost for the duration of the acquisition or construction and are no longer capitalized when the fixed asset is completed or stops to be constructed. After initial recognition, investments in property are valued at cost, less depreciation and any impairment (Note 2.11). Investment buildings are amortized based on their estimated useful life which is 40 years; however historic unrefurbished buildings are amortized in 20 years.

Subsequent expenditure is added to the carrying value of the property only if it is probable that future economic benefits related to such property will flow to the Group and their cost can be reliably measured. The repair and maintenance cost is booked in the results when such is incurred.

If an investment in property is modified to an asset for own use, then it is classified in tangible assets. Also, when there is a change in use of the investment property evidenced by commencement of development with a view to sale, it is classified as inventories.

Property held by the parent company and leased to companies in the Group is classified as investments in property in the financial statements of the Company and as tangible fixed assets in the consolidated financial statements.

2.7 Leases

(a) Group Company as lessee

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases. Operating lease expense is recognized in the income statement proportionally during the lease period and includes any restoration cost of the property, if such clause is included in the leasing contract.

Leases of fixed assets where all the risks and rewards of ownership are maintained by the Group are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalized at the lease's inception at the lower of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is apportioned between the reduction of the liability and the finance charge so that a fixed interest rate on the remaining financial liability is achieved. The respective lease liabilities, net of finance charges, are included in borrowings. The part of the finance charge relating to finance leases is recognized in the income statement over the lease. Fixed assets acquired through finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of their useful life and the lease term.

(b) Group Company as lessor

The Group leases assets only through operating leases. Operating lease income is recognized in the income statement of each period proportionally during the period of the lease.

2.8 Prepayments for long-term leases

Prepayments for long-term leases include Group receivables from sundry debtors and mainly relate to subsidiaries' receivables:

(a) from prepayments for rents to property lessors; Depreciation and amortization accrued for the lease period.

(b) from payments for completion of the construction of Motorists' Service Stations, which are shown at their construction cost less depreciation. Their depreciation starts as soon as they are completed and ready for use and is carried out using the straight-line method during the concession contract;

(c) from payments for the lease of property (forest land, plot) on which wind farms will be installed for the entire term of their operation. An accumulated expense shall be annually calculated as from the entry into operation of the wind farm, based on its useful life.

2.9 Property, Plant and Equipment

Fixed assets are reported in the financial statements at acquisition cost minus accumulated depreciation and possible impairment (note 2.11). Acquisition cost includes all expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition of the fixed assets.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying value or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group, and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The repair and maintenance cost is recorded in the results when such is incurred.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation of other tangible assets is calculated using the straight line method over their useful life as follows:

- Buildings 20-40 years
- Mechanical equipment (except wind farms and PV parks) 5–10 years
-
-
καηκξκγηκκγθκγηι Φωτοβα
Mechanical equipment for wind farms, PV parks and hydro power
plant (subject to Law 4254/2014)
27 years
- Mechanical equipment for wind farms, PV parks (entry into
operation following 01.01.2014)
20 years
- Transportation equipment 5 – 9 years
- Other equipment 5 - 10 years

The residual values and useful economic life of PPE are subject to reassessment at least at each balance sheet date.

The useful life of the wind farms and the hydro power plant that had been already operating for less than 12 years was increased in 2014 from 20 to 27 years, due to a seven-year extension to the operating contracts under Law 4254/2014.

PPE under construction include fixed assets under construction that are shown at their cost. PPE under construction are not depreciated until the fixed asset is completed and enters in operation.

When the book values of tangible assets exceed their recoverable value, the difference (impairment) is posted in the income statement as expense (note 2.11).

Upon the sale of tangible assets, any difference between the proceeds and the depreciable amount is recorded as profit or loss in the results.

Financial assets concerning the construction of assets are being capitalized for the period needed until the completion of the construction. An asset fulfilling the requirements is an asset necessarily requiring a significant

period of preparation for the use it is intended for or for its sale. All other financial expenses are recognized in the income statement.

2.10 Intangible assets

(a) Goodwill

Goodwill arises from acquisition of subsidiaries and is the difference between the sum of the acquisition price, the amount of non-controlling interests in the acquired company and the fair value of any prior participating interest in the acquired company as on the acquisition date and the fair value of the recognizable net assets of the acquired subsidiary. Goodwill arising from acquisitions of subsidiaries is recognized in intangible assets. Goodwill is not depreciable and is tested for impairment annually or even more frequently, if the circumstances indicate possible impairment, and recognized at cost, less any impairment losses. Goodwill losses cannot be reversed.

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for impairment testing. Allocation is made to those units or cashgenerating unit groups which are expected to benefit from the business combinations which created goodwill and is recognized in line with the operating segment.

Profits and losses from the disposal of an undertaking include the book value of the goodwill of the undertaking sold.

Negative goodwill is written off in profit and loss (Note 2.11).

(b) Software

Software licenses are valued at acquisition cost less depreciation. Depreciation is accounted for with the straightline method during their useful lives, which vary from 1 to 3 years.

(c) Concession right

Concession rights are valued at the acquisition cost, less depreciation. Depreciation is carried out using the straight-line method during the Concession contract (Note 2.25).

(d) User licenses

User licenses means the generation licenses for the wind farms and PV parks; they are measured at acquisition cost less depreciation. Depreciation is carried out from the date of entry into operation of the wind farms and PV parks, using the straight-line method, during their useful life, which is 27 years for projects that have entered in operation before 1 January 2014 and 20 years for new projects. User licenses are subject to impairment testing when certain events or changes in the circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable (Note 2.11).

2.11 Impairment of non-financial assets

Assets with an indefinite useful life are not depreciated, and are subject to impairment testing on an annual basis and when certain events or changes to the circumstances suggest that their carrying value may not be recoverable. Assets that are depreciated are subject to impairment audit when indications exist that their carrying value is not recoverable. Impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the fixed asset's carrying value exceeds its recoverable value. The recoverable value is the higher between fair value, reduced by the cost required for the disposal, and the value in use (current value of cash flows anticipated to be generated, based on the management's estimates of future financial and operating conditions). For the calculation of impairment losses, assets are classified in the minimum cash generating units. Any non-financial assets, apart from goodwill, which have been impaired. are reassessed for possible impairment reversal on each balance sheet date.

2.12 Financial Assets

2.12.1 Classification

The financial assets of the Group have been classified to the following categories according to the objective for which each investment was undertaken. The Management makes the decisions on classification at initial recognition.

(a) Financial instruments valued at fair value through the income statement

This class comprises financial assets held for trading. Derivatives are classified as held for trading, except when they are designated as hedges. Assets falling under this category are recorded in the current assets if they are held for trading purposes or are expected to be sold within 12 months from the balance sheet date.

(b) Borrowings and receivables

These include non-derivative financial assets with fixed or predefined payments which are not traded in active markets. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the balance sheet date. These are classified as non-current assets. Borrowings and receivables are included in the trade and other receivables account in the Statement of Financial Position.

(c) Financial assets held to maturity

Financial assets held to maturity are non-derivative assets with fixed or determined payments and specific maturity, which the Group management intends and is in position to hold until maturity. Should the Group sell a significant portion of financial assets held to maturity, the entire portfolio of assets classified as such are reclassified under available-for-sale financial assets. Financial assets held to maturity are posted in non-current assets, with the exception of assets whose maturity is less than 12 months from the date of the financial report, in which case they are classified under current assets.

(d) Financial assets available for sale

These include non-derivative financial assets that are either designated as such or cannot be included in any of the previous categories. They are included in non-current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

2.12.2 Recognition and Measurement

The purchases and sales of investments are recognized on the trade-date, which is the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognized at their fair value, plus expenses directly related to the transaction, with the exception of those assets, regarding expenses directly related to the transaction, which are valued at their fair value through profit and loss. Financial assets valued at fair value through profit and loss are initially recognized at fair value, and transaction expenses are recognized in results in the period they were incurred. Investments are eliminated when the right in cash flows from investments ends or is transferred and the Group has transferred in effect all risks and benefits attached to ownership.

Subsequently, financial assets held for sale are measured at fair value and the relative gains or losses from changes to fair value are recorded in Other comprehensive income until those assets are sold or designated as impaired. Upon sale or when assets are characterized as impaired, the gains or losses are transferred to the income statement. Impairment losses recognized in results may not be reversed through profit and loss.

Borrowings and receivables, as well as financial assets held to maturity, are recognized initially at fair value and are measured subsequently at net book cost, based on the effective rate method.

The realized and unrealized profits or losses arising from changes in the fair value of financial assets which are valued at fair value through the income statement, are recognized in the profit and loss of the period during which they occur.

The fair values of financial assets that are traded in active markets are defined by their prices. For non-traded assets, fair values are defined with the use of valuation techniques such as analysis of recent transactions, comparative items that are traded and discounted cash flows.

2.12.3 Offsetting of financial receivables and liabilities

Financial receivables and liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the Statement of Financial position only where the Group or Company holds the legal right to do so and intends to offset them on a clear basis between them or to retrieve the financial asset and offset the liability at the same time.

2.12.4 Impairment of financial assets

The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. In the case of equity securities classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered as an indicator that the securities are impaired. If impairment is demonstrated, accumulated loss in equity, which is the difference between the cost of acquisition and the fair value, shall be carried over to results. Impairment losses of equity instruments recognized in the income statement are not reversed through the income statement. Reversals of security impairments are recognized in profit or loss if the increase in the fair value of these items can be correlated objectively to a certain event that took place after recognition of impairment loss in profit or loss.

In case of objective indications that financial assets held to maturity and presented at net book acquisition value have been impaired, the amount of impairment loss is calculated as the difference between their carrying value and the current value of estimated future cash flows (except for future losses from credit risks not yet incurred), discounted at the initial effective rate. Impairment losses of financial assets held to maturity are posted in results.

The impairment test for receivables is described in note 2.15.

2.13 Financial derivatives

Group companies evaluate, on a case by case basis, the making of financial derivative contracts to hedge the exposure to rate fluctuations connected to long-term loan agreements.

Upon commencement of a transaction, the Group establishes the relation between the hedging instruments and hedged assets, as well as the risk management strategy to take various hedging actions. This procedure includes the linking of all derivatives used as hedges to specific assets and liabilities or specific commitments or

prospective transactions. Furthermore, when starting a hedge and thereafter, the extent to which the derivatives used in hedging transactions are effective in eliminating fluctuations to the market value or cash flows of the hedged assets.

The fair values of derivatives used for hedging purposes are disclosed in note 15. Changes to the Cash flow hedging reserve under Other comprehensive income are disclosed in note 23. The total fair value of hedging derivatives is classified under non-current assets or long-term liabilities when the remaining hedged asset has a maturity over 12 months, or under current assets or short-term liabilities when the residual maturity of the hedged asset is less than 12 months. Derivatives held for trade are classified under current assets or short-term liabilities.

Cash flow hedge

Derivative assets are initially recognized at fair value as of the date of the relevant agreement.

The portion of change to the derivative's fair value considered effective and meeting the cash flow hedging criteria is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. Profit or loss associated with the non-effective portion of change is directly recognized in the Income Statement, under "Financial income" or "Financial expenses".

The cumulative amount posted under Equity is transferred in the Income Statement to the periods over which the hedged asset has affected period profit or losses. The profits or losses associated with the effective portion of the hedging of floating rate swaps is recognized in the Income Statement under "Financial income" or "Financial expenses". However, when a prospective transaction to be hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset (such as reserves or fixed assets), then earnings and losses previously posted in net equity are transferred from Equity and are accounted for at the original cost of such asset. These amounts are ultimately charged to results through the cost of sales in the case of reserves, and through depreciation in the case of tangible assets.

When a hedging instrument matures or is sold, or when a hedging relation no longer meets the criteria of hedge accounting, the cumulative profits or losses posted to that time under Equity remain in Equity and are recognized when the prospective transaction is ultimately posted in the Income Statement. When a prospective transaction is no longer expected to be made, the cumulative profits or losses posted under Equity are directly transferred to the Income Statement under "Other operating profit/(loss)".

2.14 Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of acquisition cost and net realizable value. The cost is calculated using the weighted average cost method. The cost of end products and semi-finished inventories includes cost of design, materials, average working cost and a proportion of the general cost of production.

Investments in properties to which a construction initiates aiming at a future sale are re-classified as inventories at book value at the balance sheet date. From now on they will be calculated at the lowest value between the cost and net realizable value. Financial expenses are not included in the acquisition cost of inventories. The net realizable value is estimated based on the stock's current sales price, within the framework of ordinary business activities, less any possible selling expenses, wherever such a case concurs.

2.15 Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except if the discount outcome is not important, less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all of the amounts due, according to the original terms of receivables.

Trade and other receivables also comprise commercial papers and notes payable.

Serious problems that the customer encounters, the possibility of bankruptcy or financial reorganization and the inability of scheduled payments are considered to be evidence that the receivable value must be impaired. The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset's carrying value and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The amount of the provision is recognized as an

expense in the income statement. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of impairment decreases and the decrease can be objectively related to an event taking place after the impairment is recognized, the reversal of recognized impairment loss is recognized in profit/(loss).

2.16 Restricted cash

Restricted cash are cash equivalents not readily available for use. These cash equivalents may not be used by the Group until a certain point in time or until an event is reached or occurs in the future. In the cases where restricted cash is expected to be used within one year from the date of the statement of financial position, it is classified as a short-term asset. However, if it is not expected to be used within one year from the date of the statement of financial position, it is classified as a long-term asset.

2.17 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash, sight deposits, and short-term investments of up to 3 months, with high liquidity and low risk.

2.18 Share capital

The share capital includes the Company's ordinary shares. Whenever any Group company purchases shares of the Company (Treasury Shares), the consideration paid is deducted from equity attributable to the Group's equity holders until the shares are cancelled or disposed of. The profit or loss from the sale of treasury shares is recognized directly in equity.

Direct expenses for the issue of shares appear net of any relevant income tax benefit, to the reduction of equity.

2.19 Borrowings

Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at net book cost, using the effective interest rate method. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest rate method.

Any borrowing expenses paid upon execution of new credit agreements are recognized as borrowing expenses, provided that part or all of the new credit line is withdrawn. In this case, they are recorded as future borrowing expenses until withdrawal is made. If the new borrowings are not used, in part or in whole, these expenses are included in prepaid expenses and are recognized in profit or loss during the useful life of the relevant credit line.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.

2.20 Current and deferred taxation

Income tax for the fiscal year comprises current and deferred taxation. Tax is recognized in the income statement, unless relevant to amounts recognized in Other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, tax is also recognized in Other comprehensive income or equity, respectively.

Income tax on profit is calculated in accordance with the tax legislation established as of the balance sheet date in the countries where the Group operates, and is recognized as expense in the period during which profit was generated. The management regularly evaluates the cases where the applicable tax legislation requires interpretation. Where necessary, estimates are made for the amounts expected to be paid to tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is determined using the liability method on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts, as shown in the financial statements. The deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction affects neither the accounting nor the taxable gains or losses. Deferred tax is determined using the tax rates and laws in force as of the date of the balance sheet and expected to be in force when the deferred tax receivables will come due or deferred tax liabilities will be repaid.

Deferred tax receivables are recognized to the extent that there could be future taxable gains to use the temporary difference that gives rise to the deferred tax receivables.

Deferred tax receivables and liabilities are offset only if the offsetting of tax receivables and liabilities is permitted by law, and provided that deferred tax receivables and liabilities are determined by the same tax authority to the tax paying entity or different entities, and the intention has been expressed to proceed to settlement by way of offset.

2.21 Employee benefits

(a) Post-employment benefits

The employee benefits after their retirement include defined contribution programs and defined benefit programs. The Group participates in various pension plans. Payments are defined by Greek law and the funds' regulations.

A defined benefit plan is a pension plan that defines a specific amount to a pension to be received by an employee when he retires, which usually depends on one or more factors such as age, years of service and level of salary.

A defined contribution scheme is a pension plan under which the Group makes fixed payments to a separate legal entity. The Group has no legal obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not have sufficient assets to pay to all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

For defined contribution plans, the Group pays contributions to public social security funds on a mandatory basis. The Group has no obligation other than paying its contributions. The contributions are recognized as staff costs when the debt arises. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset if there is a cash refund possibility or offsetting against future debts.

The liability that is reported in the balance sheet with respect to defined benefit schemes is the present value of the liability for the defined benefit on the balance sheet date, less the fair value of the scheme's assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting future cash flows at a discount rate equal to the rate of long-term investment grade corporate bonds that have a maturity approximately equal to the pension plan.

The current service cost of the defined benefit scheme that is recognized in the income statement in Salaries and wages reflects the increase in the defined benefit obligation resulting from an employee's service in the current period, benefit changes, cutbacks and settlements. The recognized prior service cost is directly recognized in profit/(loss).

Net interest cost is assessed as the net amount between the obligation for the defined benefit scheme and the fair value of the assets of the scheme on the prepayment interest rate.

Actuarial gains or losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are charged or credited to Other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise.

Past service costs are recognized immediately in the income statement.

(b) Employment termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated before the normal retirement date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognizes these benefits at the earliest of the following dates: (a) when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of such benefits, and b) when the Company recognizes restructuring costs falling within the scope of IAS 37 and includes the payment of termination benefits. In the case of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, retirement benefits are calculated based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. When such termination benefits are deemed payable in periods that exceed 12 months from the Balance Sheet date, then they must be discounted at their current value.

In the case of employment termination, where the number of employees to use such benefits cannot be determined, the benefits are disclosed as contingent liability but are not accounted for.

2.22 Provisions

Provisions for environmental restoration, outstanding litigations, unaudited years, gross motorway maintenance and other cases are recognized when an actual legal or assumed commitment exists as a result of past events, when settlement of such commitment will likely require an outflow of resources, and when the required amount can be reliably estimated.

When concession contracts (note 2.25) include the concession holder's contractual obligation to maintain the infrastructure at a certain service level or restore the infrastructure to a certain state before delivering it to the concessionaire at the end of the concession period, the Group, as concession holder, acknowledges and values this obligation under IAS 37.

Provisions are recognized on a discounted basis when the effect of the time value of money is significant, using a pre-tax rate which reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risk specific to the liability. When provisions are discounted, the increase in provisions due to the lapse of time is recognized as a financial expense. Provisions are reviewed on each date of financial statements and if an outflow of funds to settle the obligation is unlikely, they are reversed in the income statement.

2.23 Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the collected or collectable price, after deduction of any discounts.

The Group recognises revenue when this can be reliably measured and it is probable that the economic benefits of the transaction will flow to the Group.

Revenue mainly comes from technical projects, road tolls, operating leases or sale of property, generation and sale of energy, waste management, production and trade of quarrying products.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when the Group has transferred material risks and the rewards of ownership to the purchaser.

Income and profit from construction contracts are recognized in accordance with IAS 11, as described in note 2.24, while income from concession agreements is recognized in accordance with IFRIC 12, as described in note 2.25.

Revenue from operating leases is recognized in the income statement using the straight-line method during the lease period. When the Group provides incentives to its clients, the cost of these incentives is recognized through the lease period with the straight line method as a deduction of the income from the lease.

Income from operating leases of the parent company are classified under the row "Other Income" of the Income Statement since the lease of its real estate is a secondary activity.

Income from the provision of services and real estate management is recorded in the period during which the services are rendered, based on the stage of completion of the service in relation to the total services to be provided.

Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective rate method. In case of impairment of borrowings and receivables, interest income is recognized using the rate which discounts future flows for impairment purposes.

In the case where the Group acts as a representative, it is the commission and not the gross revenue that is accounted for as revenue.

Dividends are accounted for as income when the right to receive payment is established.

2.24 Contracts for projects under construction

A construction contract is a contract specifically negotiated for the construction of an asset or a combination of assets that are closely interrelated or interdependent in terms of their design, technology and function or their ultimate purpose or use.

Expenses associated with construction contracts are recognized in the period in which they are incurred.

When the result of a construction contract cannot be reliably assessed, only the expenses incurred or expected to be collected are recognized as income from the contract.

When the result of a construction contract can be reliably assessed, such contract's income and expenses will be recognized during the term of contract as income and expenses, respectively. The Group uses the percentage of completion method to estimate the appropriate amount of income and expense to be recognized for a certain period. The stage of completion is calculated based on the expenses which have been incurred up to the balance sheet date compared to the total estimated expenses for each contract. If it is possible that the total cost of the contract will exceed total income, then anticipated losses are directly recognized in profit and loss as expenses.

In order to determine the cost incurred by the end of the period, any expenses relating to future tasks included in the contract are exempted and presented as work in progress. The total cost incurred and recognized profit/loss for each contract is compared with sequential invoices till the end of the financial year.

Where the realized expenses plus the net profit (less losses) recognized exceed the sequential invoices, the occurring difference is presented as a receivable from construction contract customers in the account 'Trade and other receivables'. When the sequential invoices exceed the realized expenses plus the net profit (less losses) recognized, the balance is presented as a liability towards construction contract customers in the account "Trade and other payables".

2.25 Service Concession Arrangements

With regard to Service Concession Arrangements whereby a public sector body contracts with a private operator for the provision of services, the Group applies IFRIC 12, provided that the following two conditions are met:

a) the grantor controls or determines which services the operator should provide to whom and at which price, and

b) the grantor controls any other significant interests in the infrastructure upon completion of the concession arrangement period.

In accordance with IFRIC 12, such infrastructures are not recognized as tangible assets of the operator, but as a Financing Contribution of the State under financial assets (financial asset model), and/or as a Concession Right under intangible assets (intangible asset model), depending on the contractually agreed terms.

i) Guaranteed receipt from grantor (Financial Asset model)

As an operator, the Group recognises a financial asset to the extent that it has an unconditional contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset from the grantor for the construction services.

In the case of service concession contracts, the operator has the unconditional right to receive cash if the grantor contractually guarantees to pay the operator:

a) specified or determinable amounts, or

b) the shortfall, if any, between amounts received from users of the public service and specific or determinable amounts provided for in the Service Concession contract.

The financial assets resulting from the application of IFRIC 12 are recorded in the Statement of Financial Position as "Guaranteed receipt from grantor" and recognized at unamortized cost based on the effective rate method, also deducting any impairment losses. The effective interest rate is equal to the grantor's borrowing costs.

This category incudes the concession contract between the subsidiary of EPADYM Group (operator) and the awarding authority DIADYMA S.A. (grantor) for the study, financing, construction, operation and maintenance of the infrastructure of the Integrated Waste Management System for a period of 27 years. According to the contract, the minimum guaranteed quantity of processed waste is 90,000 tons per year and the sale price is determined contractually. Upon expiry of the concession, all the rights and titles to the assets will be transferred to the grantor (note 14). The construction of the project was completed in June 2017 and the Company has since entered the operating phase.

ii) Concession Right (Intangible Asset Model)

As an operator, the Group recognizes an intangible asset to the extent that it receives a right (license) to charge users of the public service. The right to charge users of a public service does not constitute an unreserved right to collect cash, since the amounts collected depend on whether the public uses such service.

Intangible assets resulting from the application of IFRIC 12 are recorded under Intangible Assets in the Statement of Financial Position, analyzed as a "Concession Right" and valued at acquisition cost less depreciation. Depreciation is carried out using the straight-line method during the Concession contract.

This category includes the ATTIKI ODOS concession contract for the study, construction, financing and operation of the Elefsina-Stavros-Spata Airport motorway and the Ymittos Western Ring Road for the period from 2001 to 2024.

iii) Guaranteed receipt from grantor and Concession Right (Mixed Model)

When the service concession contract anticipates that the operator will be remunerated for the construction services partly with a financial asset and partly with an intangible asset, the Group recognizes each component of its remuneration separately, according to the above (Guaranteed Receipt from the State and Concession Right).

The above-mentioned model (Mixed Model) applies to the concession contract of the subsidiary MOREAS S.A. which has undertaken the construction and operation and operation of the Corinth-Tripoli-Kalamata motorway, Lefktro-Sparti section for 30 years (until 2038). According to the concession contract, the operator is remunerated for the construction services through subsidies from the Greek State (Guaranteed Receipt from the State), as well as through the proceeds from users of the motorway (Concession Right). Construction of the project was completed in December 2016.

The Group recognizes and accounts for the revenues and costs associated with the construction or upgrading services in accordance with IAS 11 (note 2.24), while revenues and costs associated with operation services are recognized and accounted for in accordance with IAS 18 (note 2.23).

2.26 Distribution of dividends

The distribution of dividends to equity holders of the parent company is recognized as a liability when the distribution is approved by the General Meeting of the shareholders.

2.27 Grants

Government grants are recognized at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and the Group will comply with all stipulated conditions.

Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognized in the income statement to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate.

Government grants regarding the purchase of fixed assets or the construction of projects are included in long-term liabilities as deferred state grants and are recognized as income through profit and loss using the straight-line method according to the asset expected useful life.

Grants received to finance Concession contracts are presented in accordance with IFRIC 12 as a reduction to the Guaranteed receipt from the State (note 2.25).

2.28 Held-for-sale assets

Assets are classified as available-for-sale assets and stated at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell if their carrying amount is estimated to be recovered by the Group through a sale transaction rather than through their use. Any impairment losses resulting from the valuation at fair value are recorded in profit and loss. Any increase in fair value at a subsequent valuation is recorded in profit and loss, but this does not apply to an amount that is higher than the impairment loss initially recorded in profit and loss.

An asset or group of assets (assets and liabilities) is classified as held-for-sale when it is available for direct sale in its current condition and sale is highly probable. In order for the sale to be considered as highly probable the following conditions must be cumulatively met:

  • there must be a commitment by the Management with regard to a plan to sell the assets or group of assets,
  • a programme to locate a buyer and complete the transaction must have been activated, the sale price must be reasonably correlated with the current market value of the asset or group of assets to be sold,
  • the sale is expected to be completed within one year from the day on which the held-for-sale asset or group of assets have been classified as held-for-sale, and
  • the actions necessary for the completion of the sale plan must demonstrate that a requirement of significant amendments to the plan or cancellation of the plan are unlikely.

On 31.12.2017, the Group classified the investment in ATHENS RESORT CASINO, which had been an associate up to that date, under held-for-sale assets. The sale was completed in early January 2018 (note 21).

2.29 Trade and other liabilities

Trade liabilities are usually obligations to make payment for products or services obtained during performance of typical commercial activity by suppliers. The accounts payable are classified as short-term liabilities if the payment is due within not more than one year. If not, they are classified as long-term liabilities. Trade liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and are measured subsequently at net book cost by the use of the effective rate method.

2.30 Reclassifications and rounding of accounts

The amounts disclosed in these financial statements have been rounded to thousand euros. Possible differences that may occur are due to rounding.

No reclassifications have been made to the comparative accounts shown in the Statement of Financial Position, the Income Statement or the Cash Flow Statement other than in tables of individual notes so that the information provided in those notes may be comparable to that of the current year. More specifically, in the Receivables note, the comparative data of the table with the construction contracts have been reclassified for comparability purposes.

The above reclassifications do not affect equity or results.

3 Financial risk management

3.1 Financial risk factors

The Group is exposed to various financial risks, such as market risks (currency, interest rate risk, etc.), credit risk and liquidity risk. Financial risks are associated with the following financial instruments: accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and other liabilities and debt liabilities.

Risk management is monitored by the finance division, and more specifically by the central Financial Management Division of the Group, and is determined by directives, guidelines and rules approved by the Board of Directors with regard to rate risk, credit risk, the use of derivative and non-derivative instruments, and the short-term investment of cash.

(a) Market Risk

Market risk is related to the business sectors and geographical areas in which the Group operates. Indicatively, the Group is exposed to risk from the change in the conditions prevailing in the countries where the construction segment is active, due to the change in the value of currencies and the factors affecting borrowing costs and foreign exchange rates. The Group's departments are closely monitoring the trends in the individual markets in which the Group operates and plan actions for prompt and efficient adaptation to the individual markets' new circumstances.

i) Foreign Currency Risk

The Group has been active in foreign countries, mostly in the Middle East and the Balkans (Romania, Bulgaria, Albania, etc.). With respect to its activities in the Middle East, the Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk relating mainly to the exchange rates of local currencies (e.g. QAR, RON, etc.) and the US Dollar – Euro exchange rate. It should be clarified that the exchange rates of certain currencies (mainly local currencies in Middle East countries) are linked to the US Dollar. Proceeds are made in local currency and in US dollars, and despite the fact that the larger portion of the cost and expenses are made in the same currency, a foreign exchange risk exists for the remaining part. Foreign exchange risk, where it is considered to be significant and worthy of being hedged, is hedged by the use of derivative forward contracts. These derivatives are priced at their fair values and are recognized as a receivable or liability in the financial statements.

The table below presents the most important financial assets and liabilities of the Group which result in its exposure to currency risk (amounts expressed in thousand euros):

*The group is exposed to euro-related currency risk which arises from financial assets and liabilities of subsidiaries and branches of Greek subsidiaries domiciled abroad, which carry out transactions in currencies other than their functional currency.

Sensitivity analysis to exchange rate changes

The table below presents variations in Group profit as a result of potential changes to floating exchange rates, maintaining all other variables unchanged.

Effect on profit/(loss)
for the period
Effect on equity
2017 2016 2017 2016
Exchange rate appreciated by 5% vis-à
vis the Euro
(681) 127 (930) (2,339)
Exchange rate depreciated by 5% vis-à
vis the Euro
681 (127) 930 2,339

The Company does not face a foreign exchange risk since its transactions are in EUR.

ii) Cash flow risk and risk arising from fair value change due to a change in interest rates

The Group holds significant interest-bearing assets comprising sight deposits, short-term bank deposits and bonds of the European Investment Bank. The Group is exposed to risk from fluctuations of interest rates, mainly arising from bank loans. The Group is exposed to floating interest rates prevailing in the market, which affect both the financial position and the cash flows. Cost of debt may increase as a result of these changes thus creating losses or it can decrease on the occurrence of unexpected events. It should be noted that the fluctuation in interest rates in recent years has been caused primarily by the increase in spreads due to the lack of liquidity in the Greek banking market and the estimated risk of Greek companies, and to a lesser extent by the change to the base interest rates (e.g. Euribor).

As regards long-term borrowings, the Group's Management systematically and constantly monitors interest rate fluctuations and assesses the need to take relevant positions to hedge risks, when and if necessary. In the context of risk offsetting, Group companies may enter interest swap contracts and other derivatives.

A significant part of the Group's loans are signed with floating rates and the largest part of Group loans is in Euros. As a consequence interest rate risk is primarily derived from the fluctuations of Euro interest rates and secondly from the interest rate fluctuations on other currencies in which bank loans exist (e.g. Qatari riyal, etc).

The Group constantly monitors interest rate trends, as well as the duration and nature of subsidiaries' financing needs. Decisions on loan terms, as well as the relation between variable and fixed interest rate, are considered separately on a case-by-case basis.

Analysis of the Group's and the Company's Loan Sensitivity to Interest Rate Fluctuations

At Group level, reasonable and possible interest rate change by twenty-five base points (0.25% increase/decrease) would lead to a decrease/increase in profits before tax for 2017, all other variables being equal, by EUR 1,846 thousand (2016: EUR 1,797 thousand). It should be noted that the aforementioned change in earnings before tax is calculated on the floating rate loan balances at year end and does not include the positive effect of interest income from cash deposits and cash equivalents.

At parent company level, a reasonable and possible interest rate change by twenty five base points (0.25% increase/decrease) would lead to the decrease/increase in profits before tax for 2017, all other variables being equal, by EUR 647 thousand. (2016: EUR 659 thousand). It should be noted that the aforementioned change in earnings before tax is calculated on the floating rate loan balances at year end and does not include the positive effect of interest income from cash deposits and cash equivalents.

(iii) Price Risk

The Group is exposed to the risk relating to the fluctuation of the fair value of its available-for-sale financial assets which can affect the financial statements, as relevant gains or losses from fair value adjustments will be recorded as a reserve under equity until these assets are sold or designated as impaired. It should be pointed out that, if the closing price of ELDORADO GOLD on 31.12.2017 were increased by 5%, profit/(loss) would be increased by EUR 0.9 million, and if it were reduced by 5%, profit/(loss) for the period would be reduced by EUR 0.9 million. (31.12.2016: EUR 2.3 thousand). The Company is not exposed to price risk.

(b) Credit Risk

The Group has developed policies in order to ensure that transactions are conducted with customers of sufficient credit rating. Due to the conditions prevailing in the market, the conclusion of new contracts and the procedures for monitoring work progress, invoicing and collections are subject to very strict audits. The Group has been monitoring its debtors' balances very carefully, and where receivables with credit risk are identified, they are assessed in accordance with established policies and procedures and an appropriate impairment provision is formed. In public works, certifications are closely monitored, and requests for additional works are sped up, with a view to limiting the risk of failure to collect receivables.

Cash and cash equivalents, investments and financial derivative contracts potentially involve credit risk as well. In such cases, the risk may arise from counterparty failure to fulfill their obligations towards the Group. In order to manage this credit risk, the Group sets limits to the degree of exposure for each financial institution, within the scope of the policies of the Board of Directors.

The Company is not exposed to a significant credit risk, since most of the receivables are from subsidiaries and related parties, whereas cash and cash equivalents are stored in financial institutions where it limits its degree of exposure.

(c) Liquidity risk

Given the current crisis of the Greek State and the Greek financial sector, the liquidity risk is higher and the management of cash flows is urgent. To manage the liquidity risk, the Group budgets and regularly monitors its cash flows and ensures that cash on hand is available, including the options of intra-company loans and unused credit lines to meet its needs (e.g. financing, guarantee letters, etc.).

During recent years, the Group has been refinancing its borrowings in order to better manage its liquidity. The Group's short-term borrowings at 31.12.2017 amounted to EUR 211 million, compared to EUR 238.7 million as at 31.12.2016.

Group liquidity is regularly monitored by the Management. The table below presents an analysis of the Group and Company financial liability maturities as of 31 December 2017 and 2016 respectively:

The above amounts are presented in the contractual, non discounted cash flows and therefore are not equivalent to the respective amounts shown in the financial statements with respect to Supplier and other liabilities, Financial lease commitments, Financial derivatives, and Loans.

The Trade and Other liabilities breakdown is exclusive of Advances from customers, Advances from operating leases, Amounts due to customers for contract work, and Social Security and other taxes.

3.2 Capital management

Capital management aims at safeguarding the continuity of operations of Group companies, the achievement of its developing plans along with the Group's credit rating.

To evaluate the Group's creditworthiness, the Group's Net Debt should be evaluated (i.e. total long- and shortterm loans with banks less cash and cash equivalents), however excluding non-recourse debt and respective cash and cash equivalents connected to projects which meet their borrowings through their flows.

The Group's net debt as at 31.12.2017 and 31.12.2016, respectively, is detailed in the following table:

*relates to the subsidiary concession companies ATTIKI ODOS S.A. and MOREAS S.A.

The gearing ratio as at 31.12.2017 for the Group is calculated at 37.4% (31.12.2016: at 37.1%). This ratio is calculated as the quotient of net debt to total capital employed (i.e. total equity plus net debt).

At parent level, total borrowing as at 31.12.2017 amounted to EUR 258,801 thousand (31.12.2016: EUR 263,570 thousand), representing only long-term borrowings. The gearing ratio as at 31.12.2017 for the Company is calculated at 33.3% (31.12.2016: at 32.7%).

3.3 Fair value estimation

The financial instruments carried at fair value at the balance sheet date are classified under the following levels, in accordance with the valuation method:

  • Level 1: for assets and liabilities traded in an active market and whose fair value is determined by the quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities.

  • Level 2: for assets and liabilities whose fair value is determined by factors related to market data, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices).

  • Level 3: for assets and liabilities whose fair value is not based on observable market data, but is mainly based on internal estimates.

The table below presents a comparison of the carrying values of the Group's financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost and their fair values:

The fair values of short-term trade receivables and trade and other payables approximates their book values. The fair value of long-term receivables amounts to EUR 118,409 thousand (31.12.2016: EUR 111,505 thousand) while book value amounts to EUR 109,051 thousand (31.12.2016: EUR 102,028 thousand). The fair values of loans and long-term receivables are estimated based on the discounted future cash flows by using discount rates that reflect the current loan interest rate and are included in fair value hierarchy level 3.

The table below presents the Group's financial assets and liabilities at fair value as at 31 December 2017 and 31 December 2016.

The fair value of financial assets traded on active money markets (e.g. derivatives, equities, bonds), is determined on the basis of the published prices available at the balance sheet date. An 'active' money market exists where there are readily available and regularly revised prices, which are published by the stock market, money broker, sector, rating organisation or supervising organisation. These financial tools are included in level 1. This level includes mainly the Group investment in a gold mines group, which is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and has been classified as an available-for-sale financial asset.

The fair value of financial assets traded on active money markets (e.g. derivatives traded outside a derivative market) is determined by measurement methods based primarily on available information on transactions carried out in active markets, using the estimates made by the economic entity as little as possible. These financial tools are included in level 2.

The fair value of mutual funds is determined based on the net asset value of the relevant fund.

Available-for-sale financial assets of a total value of EUR 16,213 thousand (31.12.2016: EUR 16,213 thousand) involving participation in companies not listed on active money markets are indicated in terms of cost as opposed to fair value.

4 Critical accounting estimates and judgments of the management

Estimates and judgments are continuously evaluated and are based on historical data and expectations for future events, as considered reasonable under the circumstances.

4.1 Significant accounting estimates and assumptions

Annual financial statements along with the accompanying notes and reports may involve certain judgments and calculations that refer to future events regarding operations, developments, and financial performance of the Company and the Group. Despite the fact that such assumptions and calculations are based on the best possible knowledge of the Company's and the Group's management with regard to current conditions and actions, the actual results may eventually differ from calculations and assumptions taken into consideration in the preparation of the Company's and the Group's annual financial statements.

The estimates and assumptions that involve important risk of causing future material adjustments to the assets' and liabilities' book values are as follows:

(a) Estimates of the budget of construction contracts

The Group uses the percentage completion method in order to recognize revenue from construction contracts. According to the percentage completion method, the Management must estimate the following:

  • budget of the implementation cost of the projects and, therefore, of the gross results,
  • recovery of receivables from complementary works or from delay/accelaration costs of the project,
  • impact of the amendments to the contractual object on the project's profit margin,
  • achievement of the predetermined milestones according to schedule, and
  • forecasts for loss-generating projects.

The Management of the Group examines the information on the progress of the projects available to it on a quarterly basis and revises the budgetary data of the cost, where necessary.

(b) Provisions

(i) Provisions for heavy maintenance

Under the concession contracts, the subsidiaries of the Group ATTIKI ODOS S.A. and MOREAS S.A. are under the obligation to maintain the quality of the motorways operated by them.

The main heavy maintenance costs relate to road surface reconstruction, maintenance of electromechanical installations and civil engineering works. Provisions are based on future maintenance programmes which take into account the available information from the operation of motorways, studies of external advisors and measurements of the functional characteristics of the road surface and their degree of impairment. They aim to allocate more correctly to the financial years the costs that will be incurred at specific milestones in the period from the start to the end of the operation.

The Management of the Group monitors the above information and revises the future maintenance programme when this information deviates significantly from the ones foreseen. There is increased uncertainty with regard to the estimates of the Management due to the lack of projects with similar characteristics, fluctuations in traffic load, in particular in recent years, and lack of historical data at the start of the operation.

At the end of 2017, the Management revised the provision for heavy maintenance of ATTIKI ODOS, since the results of the measurements of 2017 regarding the functional characteristics of the road surface and its future reconstruction needs in combination with the limited time until the expiry of the concession in October 2024 imposed the adjustment of the already formed provision by the amount of EUR 25.8 million (note 29).

As regards the motorway operated by the subsidiary MOREAS S.A., which became fully operational at the end of 2016, a provision for heavy maintenance of EUR 1.9 million was formed. In order to form this provision, the Management relied on the motorway's operating conditions, the traffic load and the accumulated experience from the operation of ATTIKI ODOS S.A. Moreover, Management made a plan to revise the provision at regular intervals.

(ii) Income tax

Estimates are required in determining the provision for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

The Group recognizes deferred taxes on provisional tax differences, taking into consideration the applicable tax provisions each time and estimating the future benefits and future liabilities from taxes. The best possible estimates of the Management relating to the evolution of tax results of the Group companies in the immediate future are taken into account in recognizing deferred tax assets, as well as in assessing their recoverability.

(c) Impairment of tangible assets and investment property

Tangible assets and investment property are initially recognized at cost and subsequently depreciated over their useful lives. The Group assesses at each reporting period whether there is evidence of impairment of tangible assets and investment property. Impairment testing is based on market data and the management's estimates of future financial and operating conditions. During the impairment testing process, the management works with independent appraisers.

(d) Estimates of goodwill test

As part of the annual goodwill test, the Management of the Group calculates the recoverable amounts of the cash-generating units (GCU) using the value in use method. The basic assumptions used for the calculation are set out in note 7a and require estimates by the Management concerning the budgetary profit margins (EBITDA) of each GCU, as resulting from the relevant business plans, the growth rate in the long term ,the future working capital, and the discount rate.

(e) Estimates of impairment of investment in subsidiaries and associates

In accordance with accounting policy 2.3, the Management of the Company assesses annually whether there are indications of impairment of investment in subsidiaries and associates. If there are indications of impairment, it calculates their recoverable value as the greater between the fair value and value for the year.

The basic assumptions used by the Management in assessing the recoverable value of investments relate to future flows and performance on the basis of the business plans of the companies tested for impairment, their growth rate in the long term, the future working capital, and the discount rate.

Moreover, the Management reassesses the value of investments in subsidiaries/associates in the cases of impairment of their assets (PPE, investment property).

4.2 Considerable judgments of the Management on the application of the accounting principles

The Management has not made any considerable judgments on the application of the accounting principles.

5 Segment reporting

On 31 December 2017 the Group was mainly operating in 6 business segments:

  • Construction & Quarries
  • Real estate development
  • Concessions
  • Wind farms
  • Environment
  • Other activities

The Chairman, the Managing Director and other executive members of the Board of Directors are responsible for making business decisions. Having determined the operating segments, the above persons review the internal financial reports to evaluate the Company's and Group's performance and to make decisions regarding fund allocation. The Board of Directors uses various criteria to evaluate Group activities, which vary depending on the nature, the maturity and special attributes of each field, having regard to any risks, current cash needs and information about products and markets.

Note 42 states the segment in which each Group company operates. The parent company is included in the Other activities segment.

For the financial year 2017, Additions in the column "PPE under construction" mainly result, by EUR 81,742 thousand, from wind projects which are part of the implementation of the new investment plan of ELTECH ANEMOS S.A. and its subsidiaries. The reduction in the Mechanical Equipment of wind farms and PV parks is mainly due to the sale of the subsidiary ANEMOS ALKYONIS S.A. The reclassifications from PPE under construction to Mechanical Equipment of Wind Farms & PV parks of EUR 25,127 thousand mainly relates to the

wind farm at the site Kalogerovouni of the Municipality of Monemvasia of the subsidiary ALPHA EOLIKI MOLAON LAKONIAS S.A., which became operational in the 2nd half of 2017.

Of the additions shown in the column "PPE under construction" for 2016, the amount of EUR 21,465 thousand corresponds for the most part to additions relating to the "Lyrkeio" wind farm ,which started operating in 2016. The reclassification from PPE under construction to Mechanical Equipment of Wind Farms & P/V parks in the amount of EUR 48,415 thousand refers to the same wind farm.

In the financial year 2017, the reversal of an older impairment of EUR 1,011 thousand at Group level and of EUR 79 thousand at company level relates to property of the parent company and is due to an increase in the property's fair value which resulted from an increase in the expected lease income (note 8).

In relation to the financial year 2016, the PPE impairment loss presented by the Group under Land & buildings amounts to EUR 3,578 thousand and pertains to the building installations of a subsidiary.

The decrease in licenses by EUR 961 thousand which appears under the row "Sales" comes from the sale of the company EOLOS MAKEDONIAS S.A. in the 4th quarter of 2017.

Goodwill impairment test

Goodwill concerns mainly the construction and quarries segment, which has been defined as the cash generating unit (CGU) for the impairment test carried out. This goodwill amounts to EUR 41,8 million.

The recoverable amount of this cash-generating unit was determined based on the value-in-use method. The value-in-use was calculated by using cash flow forecasts that were based on the budget approved by Management, three years of provisions, which were then projected into perpetuity.

The main assumptions used by Management in the calculation of the cash flow forecasts in the context of the annual goodwill impairment test are as follows:

  • The budgetary margins of the operating profit (EBITDA) were calculated based on the actual historical data of the past years, adjusted in order to take into account the anticipated changes in profitability and stand at 4% of the sales;
  • With regard to the working capital, Management was entirely based on historical data;
  • For the projection of cash flows into perpetuity, a 1% growth rate was used for the specific CGU;
  • The discount rate (net of tax) for the GCU was 6.6%. The Weighted Average Cost Method (WACC) was used to determine the discount rate of the units.

Based on the results of the impairment test on 31 December 2017, the recoverable amount of the above cashgenerating unit is greater than the book value and as a consequence there were no impairment losses in relation to the above goodwill.

User license and goodwill impairment test

End-of-life intangible assets mainly refer to licenses in the renewable energy sector and concern wind farms that are either operating or under construction, or expected to be constructed in the future. These intangible assets stand at EUR 14.4 million.

The Management performed a license impairment test in relation to the wind farms whose construction had not started by 31.12.2017.

The recoverable amounts of the above intangible assets were determined using the value-in-use method. The value-in-use was calculated by using cash flow forecasts that were based on a budget approved by Management and the forecasts up to the end of the useful life of each intangible asset, according to the relevant contract with the competent supervisory authority.

The basic assumptions used by Management in the calculation of the cash flow forecasts in the context of the annual impairment test for the value of intangible assets, are as follows:

  • Discount rate (net of tax) from 7.7% to 8.3%
  • Forecast sales: Income from the wind farms to be constructed in the future remains unchanged over the entire projected period and is an estimate made by the Management, having regard to historical measurements of produced electricity and the electricity selling prices expected to be offered in the context of tender procedures.
  • Budgetary profit margins: The budgetary operating profit margins and EBITDA were calculated based on the outturn of the past years, taking also into account the decreased maintenance costs for the licenses related to new farms. Over the projected period, EBITDA is estimated to range between 68% and 87%.
  • With regard to the working capital, the Management relied entirely on historical data.

Results of impairment test

Based on the impairment test results, the recoverable amount as of 31 December 2017 of the user license (goodwill) for the wind farm of the subsidiary company ANEMOS ATALANTIS S.A. was calculated at an amount lower by EUR 708 thousand than the book value of that intangible asset. Such decline is mainly due to the downgraded income forecasts for the project.

Based on the results from the impairment test, the Company impaired the value of the user license (goodwill) of the subsidiary ANEMOS ATALANTIS S.A. by EUR 708 thousand, which is included in the income statement in "Other profits/(losses)".

With regard to intangible assets, their recoverable amounts as calculated according to the impairment test as at 31 December 2017 are higher than their book values, as appropriate, and, therefore, no impairment losses have been incurred.

After impairment, the amount of licenses for wind farms to be constructed in the future stands at EUR 1.3 million.

The parent company has no intangible assets.

Trade Receivables - Net 391,866 463,128 1,118 971

The trade impairment provision of EUR 26,856 thousand relates to receivables overdue for more than 1 year.

Also, the category of receivables overdue for more than 1 year includes receivables amounting to EUR 16.7 million, which, although subject to temporary delays due to discussions on amendment to the concession contract, are considered to be fully recoverable. Moreover, arbitration and legal procedures for the amount of EUR 10 million are in progress. Finally, trade receivables overdue for more than 1 year include retentions receivable of EUR 6.8 million which are expected to be collected in 2018. The Management estimates, based on historical data, that the other receivables overdue for more than 1 year for which no provision for impairment has been formed will be recovered through arrangements and through liquidation of customers' assets.

In the context of Group activities, collateral or securities are considered to secure receivables (e.g. asset pledges, guarantees from international agencies and pre-approved customer facilities from banks). Particularly as regards construction segment projects, customer advances are a major security, standing at EUR 140,075 thousand as at 31.12.2017 (31.12.2016: EUR 171,044 thousand) and referred to in note 26 "Trade and other payables".

In relation to public sector projects, monthly certifications are made which are approved within the contractual time limits, followed by invoicing and collection. As also shown in the ageing analysis of receivables, receivables from the public sector are historically recoverable, while projects under construction are executed with the financing of international development banks (ΕΙΒ, EBRD, etc.), which ensure smooth progress and mitigate credit risk.

The provisions of Articles 44 and 45 of Codified Law 2190/1920 regulate the formation and use of statutory reserves: At least 5% of each year's actual (book) net earnings must be withheld to form a statutory reserve, until the statutory reserve's accumulated amount equals at least 1/3 of the share capital. Upon decision of the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders, the statutory reserve may be used to cover losses, and therefore may not be used for any other purpose.

(b) Special reserves

Reserves of this category have been created by decision of the Ordinary General Meeting in past years, do not have any specific designation and may, therefore, be used for any purpose, by decision of the Ordinary General Meeting.

(c) Special and Other reserves

Reserves under this category relate to reserves that have been formed under special provisions of law and to the distribution of which there is no limitation.

For the financial year 2017 the reduction in grants by EUR 1,650 thousand relates to a grant to the subsidiary ANEMOS ALKYONIS S.A., which was sold to third parties in March 2017. With regard to the financial year 2016, the decrease in the balance of grants by EUR 1,370 thousand is due to the sale of the subsidiaries ILIOSAR S.A. and SOLAR OLIVE S.A. which had collected grants in the equivalent amount.

The decrease in grants in the amount of EUR 144 thousand refers to the wind farm at location Lyrkio, as a result of reduction in installed capacity.

Refunds of EUR 2,248 thousand correspond to the subsidiary HELECTOR S.A. (31.12.2015: EUR 499 thousand), which returned grants received from the European Commission, as the construction of the project for which they were granted was not implemented.

No deferred tax receivables have been recognized with respect to residual tax loss of EUR 112,633 thousand, as it was found that they did not meet the recognition criteria of IAS 12. Of the above-mentioned tax losses, an amount of EUR 13,646 thousand may be used until the financial year 2018, an amount of EUR 95,607 thousand until the financial year 2022 and an amount of EUR 3,380 thousand may be carried forward for an indefinite period.

The change in deferred tax receivables from tax loss for financial year 2016 is due to the offset of loss against profit for the period, but mainly to the offset against tax liabilities under construction contracts.

The offset amounts for the Company are the following:

Deferred tax assets are recognized for deferred tax loss to be brought forward, to the extent that it is possible that future taxable gains will be used to offset such loss. The amount of the deferred tax receivable that can be recognized requires a judgment from the management in terms of the estimated future profit and the recoverability of deferred tax loss.

The provision for heavy maintenance on 31.12.2017 concerns the concession contracts of ATTIKI ODOS S.A. by EUR 96,299 thousand and MOREAS S.A. by EUR 1,902 thousand. The nature of the provision, the methodology followed to assess and monitor it, and the techniques and other parameters taken into account by the Group's management in making the assessment are described in 4.1. A revision of the provision for heavy maintenance of ATTIKI ODOS S.A. was made in the current financial year and, according to the revision of the estimates, a reversal of the formed provision of EUR 25,810 thousand resulted, which had a positive impact on the result of the financial year in Cost of Sales (note 30).

Following completion of the investigation carried out by the Hellenic Competition Commission, the Plenary Session delivered decision 628/2016 which was published on 4 August 2017, and imposed a fine of EUR 38,495 thousand on the subsidiary AKTOR S.A. As posted in the financial statements of the year ended 31.12.2016 and according to the then applicable information about the procedure, the Group's Management had formed provisions in the amount of EUR 40,000 thousand. In the current year, the amount concerning the specific provision was reversed, under the column "Other provisions" and the row "Used provisions for financial year".

Additional provisions for the current year include the provision for payment by the subsidiary REDS S.A. of a special contribution amount under Law 2947/2001, which, according to the Municipality of Pallini, amounts to EUR 750 thousand. The obligation for payment of the above amount by the subsidiary of the Group will be finally heard before the Council of State following the appeal filed by the Company against judgment 327/2017 of the Athens Administrative Court of Appeal.

By the arbitral decision of 12.05.2017, the subsidiary HELECTOR S.A., as member of the joint venture, was ordered to pay a penalty clause of EUR 6,293 thousand. The current period was charged by the amount of EUR 3,843 thousand; provisions had been formed in a previous year for the remaining portion (EUR 2,450 thousand). An action for annulment has been brought against the above-mentioned judgment before the Athens Court of Appeal.

In addition to the above amounts, the balance of Other provisions, in the amount of EUR 20,892 thousand, also includes a provision of EUR 10,000 thousand for the risk relating to the concession contract of HELECTOR-CYBARCO in Cyprus, provisions relating to estimated payables to personnel working on construction projects abroad, and provisions for contingencies in the context of the Group's business.

With regard to long-term provisions and particularly the provision for heavy maintenance of ATTIKI ODOS S.A., representing the largest portion, the schedule of outflows extends to 2024, i.e. the year in which the company's concession contract expires. The remaining provisions are expected to be allocated to outflows within a period from 1 to 3 years.

With regard to the financial years 2011 through 2015, Greek Societes Anonymes whose financial statements must be audited by statutory auditors were required to be audited by the same statutory auditor or audit firm that reviewed their annual financial statements, and obtain a "Tax Compliance Report, as laid down in Article 82(5) of Law 2238/1994 and Article 65A of Law 4174/2013. With regard to the financial years from 2016 onwards, the tax audit and the issue of a "Tax Compliance Report" are optional. The Group opted to continue having its statements audited by the statutory auditors, performed on an optional basis for the most important Group subsidiaries.

The table presenting the analysis of unaudited financial years of all companies under consolidation is shown in note 42.

The tax on the Company's profits before taxes is different from the notional amount which would have resulted had we used the average weighted tax factor of the country from which the company originates, as follows:

The Annual Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on 30.06.2017 decided not to distribute a dividend for the financial year 2016. Similarly, no dividend had been distributed for the financial year 2015. Pursuant to

article 16(8)(b) of Law 2190/1920, the amount of dividend attributable to treasury shares increases the dividend of other Shareholders. This dividend is subject to dividend withholding tax, in accordance with the applicable tax legislation.

38 Contingent liabilities

(a) Proceedings have been initiated against the Group for labor accidents which occurred during the execution of construction projects by companies or joint operations/ventures in which the Group participates. No substantial outflows are expected as a result of legal proceedings against the Group because the Group is fully insured against labor accidents.

(b) Various municipalities in Attica and specifically the Municipalities of Aspropyrgos, Acharnes, Fyli, Peania, Mandra, Halandri and Neo Iraklio have imposed cleaning and lighting duties relating to the Attica Tollway roadbed and facilities, municipal tax for electrified areas, and associated fines for the period from 2002 through 2015, totaling EUR 27,738 thousand. The subsidiary ATTIKI ODOS S.A. has paid the amount of EUR 7,294 thousand. The subsidiary has sought recourse against the relevant municipal cleaning, lighting and electrified areas duties, to the competent ordinary Administrative Courts of Athens, by exercising relevant remedies and appeals. Delivery of irrevocable rulings on the remedies and appeals is pending. Besides, Article 13 of Law 4337/2015 regulated the matter of municipal fees for cleaning and lighting and explicitly lays down that no municipal duties for cleaning and lighting or relevant fines shall be charged for the road and facilities of the ATTIKI ODOS motorway, except duties for which irrevocable Court rulings are pending. Moreover, the Ministry of Environment, Town Planning and Public Works has granted a certificate whereby Attiki Odos S.A. has no obligation to pay municipal duties for cleaning and lighting nor any electrified area municipal taxes in relation to the motorway.

Other litigations or disputes referred to arbitration, as well as pending court or arbitration rulings, are not expected to have a material effect on the financial position or the operations of the Group or the Company, and for this reason no relevant provisions have been formed.

(c) With regard to the financial years 2011 through 2015, Greek Societes Anonymes whose financial statements must be audited by statutory auditors, were required to be audited by the same statutory auditor or audit firm that reviewed their annual financial statements, and obtain a "Tax Compliance Report, as laid down in Article 82(5) of Law 2238/1994 and Article 65A of Law 4174/2013. With regard to the financial years from 2016 onwards, the tax audit and the issue of a "Tax Compliance Report" are optional. The Group opted to continue having its statements audited by the statutory auditors, performed on an optional basis for the most important Group subsidiaries.

Unaudited years of the consolidated Group companies are shown in note 42. The Group's tax liabilities for these years have not been finalized yet and, therefore, additional charges may arise when the relevant audits are performed by the tax authorities. The provisions recognized by the Group for unaudited years stand at EUR 1,744 thousand and for the parent company at EUR 180 thousand (note 29). The parent company has not been audited by the Tax Authorities for the financial year 2010. It has been audited for the years 2011, 2012, 2013, pursuant to Law 2238/1994, and for 2014 to 2016, pursuant to Law 4174/2013, and has obtained a tax compliance certificate from PricewaterhouseCoopers S.A., without any qualification. The competent audit firms are currently performing the tax audit for the financial year 2017. The Company's management is not expecting significant tax liabilities, upon completion of the tax audit, other than those recorded and presented in the financial statements.

In note 42, Group companies marked with an asterisk (*) in the unaudited tax years column are companies incorporated in Greece that are subject to mandatory audit by audit firms which have obtained tax compliance certificates for the relevant years.

(d) On 15.06.2016, Helector Cyprus Ltd (a wholly-owned subsidiary of HELECTOR) was indicted for alleged unlawful practices of its former officers in the context of its activities in the Republic of Cyprus. If the company is convicted, penalties (e.g. a fine) will be imposed, which are not expected, however, to have a significant impact on the Group's financial position. In the financial year 2015 the Group made a provision regarding the risk of termination of the company's concession contract in Cyprus (note 29).

(e) The Group has contingent liabilities in relation to banks, other guarantees, and other matters that arise from its normal business activity and from which no substantial charges are expected to arise.

THERMAIKI ODOS S.A., which is consolidated using the equity method, has a recognized claim of EUR 67.9 million against the Greek State, following the arbitral decisions in favor of the company in 2010 and 2012, in relation to the termination and suspension of the Concession Contract of the Thessaloniki Underground Tunnel. The Greek State filed seven actions for annulment against the above arbitral decisions. The Athens Court of Appeal delivered judgments in relation to these actions, which admitted the actions for reasons of formality (relating to the composition of the arbitration court), without considering the merits of the case. The company has already initiated legal action and estimates, according to the contractual terms and the applicable case-law, that its claim is fully founded and will be recovered from the Greek State.

The Share of loss from holdings that are accounted for using the equity method presented in the Income Statement amounts to profit of EUR 89 thousand for the fiscal year 2017, owing primarily to profit of AEGEAN MOTORWAY S.A. and losses incurred by ELPEDISON S.A. The corresponding figure for the 12-month period of 2016 amounted to a loss of EUR 3,173 thousand, arising mainly from losses incurred by ELPEDISON SA.

42.c A detailed list of the joint operations' assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses which are accounted for based on the Group's share of interest, appears in the following detailed table. The parent company does not hold any direct share of interest in those joint-operations.

In this table below, ratio 1 under the column "First time Consolidation" indicates those Joint Operations consolidated for the first time in the current period as newly established, and not incorporated in the immediately previous period, i.e. 30.06.2017 (index IPP) nor in the previous year, i.e. 31.12.2016 (index RPY).
