REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

To the Shareholders of "FOURLIS HOLDINGS S.A."

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed separate and consolidated statement of financial position of "FOURLIS HOLDINGS S.A." (the "Company") as at 30 June 2016, and the related condensed separate and consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, as well as the selected explanatory notes that comprise the interim condensed financial information, which is an integral part of the six-month financial report of Law 3556/2007. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim condensed financial information in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and apply to interim financial reporting (International Accounting Standard "IAS 34"). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim condensed financial information based on our review.

Scope of review

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

Conclusion

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

Report on other legal requirements

Our review has not identified any inconsistency between the other information contained in the six-month financial report prepared in accordance with article 5 of Law 3556/2007 with the accompanying interim condensed financial information.

2. Basis of preparation of the Financial Statements

The accompanying Interim Condensed Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards for the Interim Financial Statements (IAS 34) and as a result they do not include all information necessary for the Annual Financial Statements. Consequently, they have to be read in combination with the published Financial Statements of the Group of 31/12/2015, uploaded on the website: http://www.fourlis.gr. The Board of Directors approved the Interim Financial Statements of the period 1/1-30/6/2016, on 29/8/2016.

The Interim Condensed Financial Statements are presented in thousands of Euro, unless stated otherwise and any differentiations in sums are due to rounding.

3. Basic Accounting Principles - Changes in accounting policies and disclosures

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except for the following amended IFRSs which have been adopted by the Group/Company as of 1st January 2016

IAS 1: Disclosure Initiative (Amendment)

The amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements further encourage companies to apply professional judgment in determining what information to disclose and how to structure it in their financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. The narrow-focus amendments to IAS clarify, rather than significantly change, existing IAS 1 requirements. The amendments relate to materiality, order of the notes, subtotals and disaggregation, accounting policies and presentation of items of other comprehensive income (OCI) arising from equity accounted Investments. Management has not made use of this amendment.

IAS 16 Property, Plant & Equipment and IAS 38 Intangible assets (Amendment): Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortization

The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. The amendment provides additional guidance on how the depreciation or amortization of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets should be calculated. This amendment clarifies the principle in IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment and IAS 38 Intangible Assets that revenue reflects a pattern of economic benefits that are generated from operating a business (of which the asset is part) rather than the economic benefits that are consumed through use of the asset. As a result, the ratio of revenue generated to total revenue expected to be generated cannot be used to depreciate property, plant and equipment and may only be used in very limited circumstances to amortize intangible assets. Management has not made use of this assessment.

IFRS 11 Joint arrangements (Amendment): Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations

The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. IFRS 11 addresses the accounting for interests in joint ventures and joint operations. The amendment adds new guidance on how to account for the acquisition of an interest in a joint operation that constitutes a business in accordance with IFRS and specifies the appropriate accounting treatment for such acquisitions. The Company had no transactions in scope of this amendment .

IAS 19 Defined Benefit Plans (Amended): Employee Contributions

The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 February 2015. The amendment applies to contributions from employees or third parties to defined benefit plans. The objective of the amendment is to simplify the accounting for contributions that are independent of the number of years of employee service, for example, employee contributions that are calculated according to a fixed percentage of salary. The Company does not have any plans that fall within the scope of this amendment.

The IASB has issued the Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010 – 2012 Cycle, which is a collection of

amendments to IFRSs. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 February 2015. None of these had an effect on the Company's and the Group's Financial Statements

  • IFRS 2 Share-based Payment: This improvement amends the definitions of 'vesting condition' and 'market condition' and adds definitions for 'performance condition' and 'service condition' (which were previously part of the definition of 'vesting condition').
  • IFRS 3 Business combinations: This improvement clarifies that contingent consideration in a business acquisition that is not classified as equity is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss whether or not it falls within the scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.
  • IFRS 8 Operating Segments: This improvement requires an entity to disclose the judgments made by management in applying the aggregation criteria to operating segments and clarifies that an entity shall only provide reconciliations of the total of the reportable segments' assets to the entity's assets if the segment assets are reported regularly.
  • IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement: This improvement in the Basis of Conclusion of IFRS 13 clarifies that issuing IFRS 13 and amending IFRS 9 and IAS 39 did not remove the ability to measure short-term receivables and payables with no stated interest rate at their invoice amounts without discounting if the effect of not discounting is immaterial.
  • IAS 16 Property Plant & Equipment: The amendment clarifies that when an item of property, plant and equipment is revalued, the gross carrying amount is adjusted in a manner that is consistent with the revaluation of the carrying amount.
  • IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures: The amendment clarifies that an entity providing key management personnel services to the reporting entity or to the parent of the reporting entity is a related party of the reporting entity.
  • IAS 38 Intangible Assets: The amendment clarifies that when an intangible asset is revalued the gross carrying amount is adjusted in a manner that is consistent with the revaluation of the carrying amount.
  • The IASB has issued the Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012 2014 Cycle, which is a collection of amendments to IFRSs. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. None of these had an effect on the Company's and the Group's financial statements.
  • IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations: The amendment clarifies that changing from one of the disposal methods to the other (through sale or through distribution to the owners) should not be considered to be a new plan of disposal, rather it is a continuation of the original plan. There is therefore no interruption of the application of the requirements in IFRS 5. The amendment also clarifies that changing the disposal method does not change the date of classification.
  • IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures: The amendment clarifies that a servicing contract that includes a fee can constitute continuing involvement in a financial asset. Also, the amendment clarifies

that the IFRS 7 disclosures relating to the offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities are not required in the condensed interim financial report.

  • IAS 19 Employee Benefits: The amendment clarifies that market depth of high quality corporate bonds is assessed based on the currency in which the obligation is denominated, rather than the country where the obligation is located. When there is no deep market for high quality corporate bonds in that currency, government bond rates must be used.
  • IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting: The amendment clarifies that the required interim disclosures must either be in the interim financial statements or incorporated by cross-reference between the interim financial statements and wherever they are included within the greater interim financial report (e.g., in the management commentary or risk report). The Board specified that the other information within the interim financial report must be available to users on the same terms as the interim financial statements and at the same time. If users do not have access to the other information in this manner, then the interim financial report is incomplete.

Standards issued but not yet effective and not earlier adopted by the Company and the Group:

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early application permitted. The final version of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments reflects all phases of the financial instruments project and replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and all previous versions of IFRS 9. The standard introduces new requirements for classification and measurement, impairment, and hedge accounting. The amendment has not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. IFRS 15 establishes a fivestep model that will apply to revenue earned from a contract with a customer (with limited exceptions), regardless of the type of revenue transaction or the industry. The standard's requirements will also apply to the recognition and measurement of gains and losses on the sale of some non-financial assets that are not an output of the entity's ordinary activities (e.g., sales of property, plant and equipment or intangibles). Extensive disclosures will be required, including disaggregation of total revenue; information about performance obligations; changes in contract asset and liability account balances between periods and key judgments and estimates. Management is in the process of assessing the impact of the change in Group companies.

IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Clarifications)

The Clarifications apply for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 with earlier application permitted. The objective of the Clarifications is to clarify the IASB's intentions when developing the requirements in IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, particularly the accounting of identifying performance obligations amending the wording of the "separately identifiable" principle, of principal versus

agent considerations including the assessment of whether an entity is a principal or an agent as well as applications of control principle and of licensing providing additional guidance for accounting of intellectual property and royalties. The Clarifications also provide additional practical expedients for entities that either apply IFRS 15 fully retrospectively or that elect to apply the modified retrospective approach. These Clarifications have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRS 16: Leases

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. IFRS 16 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract, i.e. the customer ('lessee') and the supplier ('lessor'). The new standard requires lessees to recognize most leases on their financial statements. Lessees will have a single accounting model for all leases, with certain exemptions. Lessor accounting is substantially unchanged. The standard has not been yet endorsed by the EU. Management is in the process of assessing the impact of the change in Group companies.

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures - Amendment: Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture

The amendments address an acknowledged inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and those in IAS 28, in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The main consequence of the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary. In December 2015 the IASB postponed the effective date of this amendment indefinitely pending the outcome of its research project on the equity method of accounting. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

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

The Amendments become effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017 with earlier application permitted. The objective of the Amendments is to clarify the requirements of deferred tax assets for unrealized losses in order to address diversity in practice in the application of IAS 12 Income Taxes. The specific issues where diversity in practice existed relate to the existence of a deductible temporary difference upon a decrease in fair value, to recovering an asset for more than its carrying amount, to probable future taxable profit and to combined versus separate assessment. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IAS 7: Disclosure Initiative (Amendments)

The Amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017 with earlier application permitted. The objective of the Amendments is to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows

and non-cash changes. The Amendments specify that one way to fulfil the disclosure requirement is by providing a tabular reconciliation between the opening and closing balances in the statement of financial position for liabilities arising from financing activities, including changes from financing cash flows, changes arising from obtaining or losing control of subsidiaries or other businesses, the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates, changes in fair values and other changes. These Amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRS 2: Classification and Measurement of Share based Payment Transactions (Amendments)

The Amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 with earlier application permitted. The Amendments provide requirements on the accounting for the effects of vesting and non-vesting conditions on the measurement of cash-settled share-based payments, for share-based payment transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations and for modifications to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash-settled to equity-settled. These Amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

4. Financial Risk Management

The policies for risk and capital management of the Group are those disclosed in the Notes of the Annual Financial Statements as of 31/12/2015.

5. Management Estimates

The preparation of the Interim Condensed Financial Statements according to IFRS requires the management to make estimations and assumptions that may influence the accounting balances of Assets & Liabilities, the disclosures relating to Contingent Receivables & Payables, along with the recording of the amounts of Revenues and Expenses, recorded during the current period. The use of available information and subjective judgment are an integral part of making assumptions.

Future results may vary from the above estimates. Management's estimates and adjustments are under constant evaluation, based on historical data and the expectations for future events which are considered as realistic under the current circumstances. Management estimates and adjustments are consistent with those followed for the issuance of the Annual Financial Statements Separate and Consolidated for the year ended 31/12/2015.

6. Segment Information

The Group is active on the following four operating segments:

  • Retail Trading of Home Furniture and Households Goods (IKEA stores).
  • Retail Trading of Sporting Goods (INTERSPORT and TAF stores).

The discontinued operation in 2016 includes only FOURLIS TRADE S.A. which disinvested within 2014 from the

wholesale trade activity of electrical appliances.

Current loans include:

The remaining finance lease liability of the company HOUSEMARKET S.A. of amount € 1.178 thousand through which the Company financed the purchase of land and building on 27 December 2000 as well as the improvements made on the building and the purchase of equipment for the first IKEA store in Greece in Pylea Thessaloniki. The finance lease for the land and the building improvements expires on December 2016.

Non-current loans include:

The remaining finance lease liability of the company INTERSPORT ATHLETICS S.A. of amount € 1.829 thousand through which it financed the purchase of new mechanical equipment for warehousing and transportation of goods in the warehousing premises of the subsidiary company TRADE LOGISTICS S.A. on 29 September 2015. The finance lease expires on September 2020.

Total short term loans of the Group are mainly related to current loans and overdraft bank accounts which are used for the Group's working capital needs. The amounts drawn are used mainly to cover current obligations to suppliers. The weighted average interest rate of short term loans for the period 1/1/2016 to 30/6/2016 was approximately 5,84% (2015: 5,84%). During the current period, a Group's subsidiary entered into cash flow

hedges (Interest Rate Swaps or IRSs), in order to mitigate the risk of a sudden increase in interest rates in the interbank market. The terms of the swap agreements are as follows:

5year financial product (IRS) that hedges interest rate risk through the exchange of fixed/ floating rate for nominal amount of 5 million euros, with a negative fair value for HOUSE MARKET BULGARIA AD on 30/6/2016 of € 177 thousand (31/12/2015: € 191 thousand). The result of valuation has been registered in the statement of comprehensive income.

Some of Group's loans include loan covenants. On 30/6/2016 Group either complied with the terms of the loans or had the approval to wave the right to calculate them.

The Group, having centralized its capital management, has the ability to directly identify, quantify, manage and hedge, if necessary, its financial risks created by its operational activities so as to be consistent to the changes in the economic environment. The Group continuously observes and budgets its cash flow and acts appropriately in order to ensure open credit lines for covering current capital needs.

The carrying amounts of the financial instruments of assets and liabilities (i.e. trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, trade and other payables, derivative financial instruments, borrowings and finance leases) approximate their fair value.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

  • Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
  • Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data;
  • Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

  • Cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables accounts: the carrying amounts approximate their fair value either due to the short maturity of these instruments or because there is no foreign currency risk exposure.
  • Borrowings: The carrying amounts approximate their fair value mainly due to the fact that they bear interest at floating rates and are denominated in local currency.
  • Derivative financial instruments: The valuation method took into consideration factors such as the current and the prospective interest rates trend and the duration and falls into level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Within the period there were neither transactions between levels 1 and 2 nor transactions inside and outside level 3 during the calculation of fair value. Moreover, within the same period there was no change to the purpose of any financial asset that would lead to a different classification of this asset.

12. Employee Benefits

12.1 Liabilities due to termination of service

The obligation of employee compensation due to termination of service (Law 2112/20, 4093/12 for Greek Companies, Bulgarian Labor Law for Bulgarian Companies and Labor Law 1475 for Turkish Company) appears in the Financial Statements in compliance with IAS 19 and is based on an actuarial study elaborated by AON Hewitt on December 31st ,2015. The obligation for employee compensation due to termination of service was affected in 2013 by the provisions of Law 4093/12, according to which the maximum level of compulsory compensation of which the employee is entitled in case of dismissal or retirement, has decreased.

Basic assumptions of the actuarial study for Greece are the following:

Greek Companies 2015 2014
Average annual payroll increase 1,00% 1,00%
Discount interest rate 1,86% - 2,74% 1,57% - 2,25%
Inflation 1,00% 1,00%
Plan duration (years) 10-24 12-25

In case of an average annual payroll increase by 0,50% (namely 1,50%), the amount of liabilities due to termination of service of Greek companies would increase from 5,01% to 12,27%. In case of a discount rate increase by 0,50%, the amount of liabilities due to termination of service of Greek companies would decrease from 4,71% to 11,05%.

Bulgarian Companies 2015 2014
Average annual payroll increase 3,50% 3,50%
Discount interest rate 2,36% 2,61%
Inflation 2,00% 2,00%
Plan duration (years) 24-31 25

In case of an average annual payroll increase by 0,50% (namely 4,00%), the amount of liabilities due to termination of service of Bulgarian companies would increase from 12,41% to 16,12%. In case of a discount rate increase by 0,50% (namely 2,86%), the amount of liabilities due to termination of service of Bulgarian companies would decrease from 11,00% to 13,98%.

Turkish Companies 2015 2014
Average annual payroll increase 7,10% 7,10%
Discount interest rate 11% 9,00%
Inflation 5,10% 5,10%
Plan duration (years) 23 24

12.2 Share based payments

(*) For the fiscal years 2011, 2012, 2013 all companies of the Group located in Greece, have been subjected to tax audit by Certified Audit Accountants in compliance with the provisions of Article 82 par. 5 of Law 2238/1994 and for 2014, 2015 with the provisions of Article 65 a of Law 4174/2013 and received a Tax Compliance Certificate for fiscal years 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 while the audit for the year 2015 is in progress. Upon completion of the audit, the Management of the Company and the Group does not expect any significant liabilities to arise, other than those recorded and presented in the Financial Statements. In order for the years 2011, 2012, 2013 to be considered integrated, provisions specified in par. 1a of Article 6 POL 1159/2011 should apply. The integration of 2014 and 2015 is according to POL1124/2015.

In September 2014 the tax audit for the financial years 2007-2010 for the subsidiary HOUSEMARKET S.A. was completed and taxes of amount € 1.841 thousand, as well as fines and surcharges of amount € 2.022 thousand were assessed. On 24/10/2014 an administrative appeal was submitted, according to art. 63 of the Law 4174/2013, seeking for the review of the assessment acts of the Tax Authorities, and half of the amount disputed, i.e. € 1.937 thousand was paid. On 24/2/2015 the company was informed of the decision of the Authority for the Settlement of Disputes, concerning the aforementioned administrative appeal, which reduced the taxes assessed to € 1.632 thousand and the fines and surcharges to € 1.761 thousand. On 3/4/2015 two (2) appeals (concerning VAT and income tax) were submitted to the Administrative Courts, against the decision of the Authority for the Settlement of Disputes. On 29/4/2015, based on the L. 4321/2015, the full payment of the amount of the main tax was made with a decrease of additional taxes and surcharges attributable. 22/9/2015 was the date set for the discussion of the appeal of the subsidiary HOUSEMARKET SA in the Administrative Court of Appeals, which was postponed for 1/12/2015. On 1/12/2015 the case was discussed at the Administrative Court of Appeals and the resolution 1406/2016 was issued regarding the appeal versus assesments of income tax and the resolution 1405/2016 regarding the appeal versus assesments of VAT. Based on the resolution 1406/2016, the relative Appeal conducted versus assesments of income tax of the fiscal year 2007 was, at a highly significant extent, accepted and the trial of the rest years (2008, 2009 and 2010) was postponed until December 2016 (6/12/2016). Based on the resolution 1405/2016, the Judicial Appeal of VAT was rejected. The resolutions 1406/2016 and 1405/2016 are at the stage of engrossing. The Management estimates that any contigent liability may arise for the Company, as a result of this case, will not have a significant impact on the Income Statement, the cash flows or the total financial condition of the Group.
