| Net turnover of the Group, EUR'000 |
2013 | 2014 | 2015 | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Baltic region | 3 169 | 3 633 | 5 359 | 7 689 | 9 125 | 9 302 |
| Nordic countries | 3 854 | 3 164 | 4 920 | 5 206 | 5 238 | 5 896 |

The third largest sector in terms of volume represents all other products with a 13% of the market share and a 64% sales increase which can be explained by the increasing development of optics and photonics and growing volumes of product manufacturing.

Exposure to Risks
The Group and the Parent Company, operating in a highly competitive market, are subject to market risk. The Parent Company manages risk according to its business development strategy, which foresees the development of a highly automated and technologically developed manufacturing process, operating in diversified market sectors with a growth tendency. Continued efforts are made for attracting new clients. As at 31 December 2018, the Parent Company had 30 regular clients, of which 17 account for at least 1% of the total turnover, and many have been working with AS HansaMatrix as their manufacturer for at least over 10 years.
The Group and the Parent Company exposed to credit risk through its trade receivables. The Parent Company has introduced various procedures to mitigate the risk of unrecoverable debts. Most trade credits are insured using non-recourse factoring. In accordance with Note 40 to the financial statements, as at 31 December 2018, 63% of all trade receivables were insured. Clients, whose trade credits for any reason are not or cannot be insured, are subject to shortened payment schedules, advance payments, credit limits and other risk hedging conditions. The credit history of customers is also assessed on an ongoing basis and credit limits and terms are changed on an individual basis as applicable.
The Group and the Parent Company are subject to liquidity and cash flow risks. Liquidity is affected by inventories and the volume of work in progress, the amount of trade credits granted to clients, amount of prepayments received, suppliers' terms of payment and the working capital available to the Parent Company. To mitigate liquidity risk, the Parent Company employs financial and operational management procedures. The amount of inventories is monitored on a regular basis, orders and deliveries from suppliers are rescheduled, as are the sequence and volume of planned manufacturing in order to speed up the inventory turnover. Working capital is also monitored regularly which leads to planning of the availability of credit resources and financing instruments and the amount and repayment schedules thereof.
The Group and the Parent Company are subject to foreign currency risk. The financial assets and liabilities, which are exposed to foreign currency risk, comprise cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and trade payables. The Group and the Parent Company are mainly exposed to foreign currency risk of the USD and EUR. To mitigate foreign currency risk, the Parent Company effectively employs foreign exchange hedging procedures, for example, by using pricing policy, regularly adjusting sales prices to reflect the changes in the prices of raw materials caused by currency rate fluctuations, or planning supplies and sales in the main currencies used – EUR and USD.
The Group and the Parent Company are also subject to interest rate risks arising from the fluctuations of the interbank money market rate for the euro (EURIBOR), mostly relating to the possible increase in the ECB base rate and resulting in EURIBOR rate increase for long-term floating rate loans. The sensitivity of the pre-tax profit of the Group and the Parent Company to possible changes in the EURIBOR rates is comparably insignificant; for example, a 1% increase in the EURIBOR rate leads to a decrease in the net profit by less than 8%.
Subsequent events
On 1 February 2019, AS HansaMatrix registered with Nasdaq CSD SE 205 298 warrants that are owned by the European Investment Bank (EIB) and were issued according to the EUR 10 million financing agreement signed between AS HansaMatrix and EIB.
On 17 March 2019, the Parent Company signed a EUR 2 million loan agreement with AS SEB banka to obtain a partial funding for the implementation of project No 1.2.1.4/16/A/021 "Development of Experimental Production of 3D Volumetric Imaging Equipment and its Components" under activity 1.2.1.4 "Support in introduction of new products into production" of specific objective 1.2.1 "To increase investments of private sector in R&D" of the operational program "Growth and Employment". To secure the loan, the Parent Company will pledge the real estate at Akmeņu iela 72 and Akmeņu iela 74, Ogre, its own movable property and establish a financial pledge on its settlement accounts with AS SEB banka.
Further Development
In 2019, the Group and the Parent Company continue implementing their strategic development goals by raising the share of knowledge intensive product development and manufacturing and planning the sales growth in accordance with the announced sales projection until 2020.

Notes to the financial statements
1. Corporate information
AS HansaMatrix (hereinafter – the Parent Company) was registered with the Republic of Latvia Enterprise Register on 30 July 1999 and re-registered with the Republic of Latvia Commercial Register on 27 December 2002 under unified registration number 40003454390. The registered office of the Parent Company is at Akmeņu iela 72, Ogre. The shares of the Parent Company are listed on Riga Stock Exchange, Latvia.
The HansaMatrix Group (hereinafter – the Group) is a leading Baltic electronic system product developer and manufacturer. Information on the Group's structure and other related party relationships of the Group and the Parent Company is provided in Notes 15 and Note 37.
The financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018 were approved by a decision of the Parent Company's Board on 15 April 2019.
The Parent Company's shareholders have the power to amend the consolidated and separate financial statements after the issue.
2. Significant accounting principles
2.1. Basis of preparation
The financial statements present the consolidated financial position of the AS HansaMatrix Group (i.e. AS HansaMatrix and its subsidiaries) and the financial position of AS HansaMatrix as a separate entity.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the European Union. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on a historical cost basis, unless stated otherwise in the accounting policies described below.
The monetary unit used in the financial statements is the euro (EUR). The consolidated financial statements cover the period 1 January 2018 through 31 December 2018.
2.2. Basis of consolidation (the Group)
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of AS HansaMatrix and entities controlled by the Parent Company (its subsidiaries) as at 31 December 2018. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as for the Parent Company, using consistent accounting policies.
Control is achieved when the Parent Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary.
The financial statements of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries are consolidated in the Group's consolidated financial statements by adding together like items of assets and liabilities as well as income and expense. All intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains and losses on transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
2.3. Summary of significant accounting policies
a) Investments in associates
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, but is not control or joint control over those policies. Under the equity method, the investment in an associate is initially recognized at cost. The carrying amount of the investment
is adjusted to recognize changes in the Group's share of net assets of the associate since the acquisition date. Goodwill relating to the associate is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is not tested for impairment separately. The statement of profit or loss reflects the Group's share of the results of operations of the associate. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associate.
The aggregate of the Group's share of profit or loss of an associate is shown on the face of the statement of profit or loss outside operating profit and represents profit or loss after tax and non-controlling interests in the subsidiaries of the associate. The financial statements of the associate or joint venture are prepared for the same reporting period as the Group. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group. After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognize an impairment loss on its investment in its associate. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired.
a) Investments in associates (cont'd)
If there is such evidence, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying value, and then recognizes the loss within 'Share of profit of an associate' in the statement of profit or loss.
Upon loss of significant influence over the associate, the Group measures and recognizes any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate upon loss of significant influence or joint control and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in profit or loss.
The above accounting policy was effective until 31 December 2017. The new accounting policy is described in Note 2.5 to the financial statements.
b) Investments in subsidiaries and associates (the Parent Company)
Investments in subsidiaries (i.e. where the Parent Company holds more than 50% interest of the share capital or otherwise controls the company) and associates (i.e. an entity over which the Parent Company has significant influence without control over the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee) are recognized at cost according to IAS 27. Following initial recognition, investments in subsidiaries and associates are carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The carrying values of investments are reviewed for impairment at each statement of financial position date. The Parent Company calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the subsidiary or associate and its carrying value, then, recognizes the loss in the statement of comprehensive income.
Dividends received from subsidiaries are recognized in statement of comprehensive income when the Parent Company's right to receive the dividend is established.
c) Current versus non-current classification
The Group presents assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position based on current/non-current classification. An asset is current when it is:
-
Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle,
-
Held primarily for the purpose of trading,
-
Expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period,
-
or
-
Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
-
It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle,
-
It is held primarily for the purpose of trading,
-
It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period,
or
- There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. The Group classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
d) Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
-
In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
-
In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group and the Parent Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest,
d) Fair value measurement (cont'd)
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
-
Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
-
Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
-
Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
e) Revenue
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the Parent Company and the revenue can be reliably measured, less value added tax and sales-related discounts. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized:
Sale of goods
Revenue is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer.
Rendering of services
The Group and the Parent Company basically provides manufacturing services. Revenue is recognized in the period when the services are rendered.
Interest
For all financial instruments measured at amortized cost and interest bearing financial assets classified as available for sale, interest income or expense is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR). Interest income is included in finance income in the statement of comprehensive income.
Segments
Reportable segments are operating segments or their aggregation which meet certain criteria. Operating segments are units of the Group, on which separate financial information is available, which is regularly assessed for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. The Group and the Parent Company focus on four major market segments: data network infrastructure products, the Internet of Things, industrial products, and other. The Group and the Parent Company have one business segment, i.e. the manufacturing services.
f) Grants
Grants received from the government and international organizations are recognized where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions will be complied with.
Grants received from the government and international organizations for the purchase, development or construction of noncurrent assets are initially recognized as deferred income and taken to the profit or loss on a systematic basis over the useful life of the relevant assets.
Other government grants are recognized as income on a systematic basis over the period when the Group and the Parent Company expense the costs that the grants compensate. A government grant that becomes receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group and the Parent Company with no future related costs is recognized as income of the period in which it becomes receivable.
g) Income taxes
Income taxes include current and deferred taxes. Until 31 December 2017, current corporate income tax had been applied at the statutory rate of 15%.
Legal entities have not been required to pay income tax on earned profits starting from 1 January 2018 in accordance with amendments made to the Corporate Income Tax Law of the Republic of Latvia. Corporate income tax is paid on distributed profits and deemed profit distributions. Consequently, current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rate applicable to undistributed profits. Starting from 1 January 2018, both distributed profits and deemed profit distributions have been subject to the tax rate of 20 per cent of their gross amount, or 20/80 of net expense. Corporate income tax on dividends is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss as expense in the reporting period when respective dividends are declared, while, as regards other deemed profit items, at the time when expense is incurred in the reporting year.
Income tax expense is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive income, in which case it is recognized in equity or other comprehensive income.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying value for accounting purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Corporate income tax on dividends and deferred income tax expense on dividends of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are reported in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
h) Value added tax
Expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of value added tax, except:
-
When value added tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case, value added tax is recognized as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item, as applicable,
-
When receivables and payables are stated with the amount of value added tax included.
The net amount of value added tax recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
i) Foreign currency translation
The functional and presentation currency of the Group is the euro (EUR), the monetary unit of the Republic of Latvia. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the euro at the euro foreign exchange reference rate published by the European Central Bank at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the euro applying the euro foreign exchange reference rate published by the European Central Bank at the last day of the reporting year. The differences arising on settlements of transactions or on reporting foreign currency transactions at rates different from those at which these transactions have originally been recorded are netted in the statement of comprehensive income accounts. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. The non-monetary items are carried at historical cost and no further retranslation is performed.
j) Intangible assets
Intangible non-current assets are stated at cost and amortized over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. The carrying values of intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Losses from impairment are recognized where the carrying value of intangible noncurrent assets exceeds their recoverable amount.
After initial recognition, development expenditure is recognized as intangible assets at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Assets are amortized over their expected useful lives. At each reporting date, it is analyzed whether there is any indication that the asset may be impaired. When computer software is an integral element of hardware that cannot operate without that specific software, computer software is treated as property, plant and equipment.
Other intangible assets are comprised of software and licenses. Amortization is calculated on straight line basis. Other intangible assets have a useful life of 3 – 5 years.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income when the asset is derecognized.
k) ODM (Original Design Manufacturing) assets
Intangible assets comprise intellectual property arising from research and development of the Parent Company and the Group in the form of ODM (Original Design Manufacturing) assets. The Parent Company and the Group recognizes and, according to IAS 38, capitalizes the results of development of products, materials, devices, processes and systems derived as a result of targeted projects, which are ODM assets. ODM assets may incorporate tangible elements, such as prototypes of materials or products, samples, devices, systems, and intangible elements, such as project or production documents, documented processes, inventions or innovations which are or are not protected by patents.
The creation of ODM assets is initiated only for a specific identified customer or several such customers after the expected economic result has been evaluated. This process is accurately managed by accounting for all costs, both costs of direct materials used in project development and the full cost of engineering hours spent, including salaries of engineers plus costs incurred to ensure their work, but excluding administrative expense.
When recognizing an ODM asset, the Group determines the amortization charge of each ODM asset per one unit of a product associated with the use of the ODM asset and the total number of units of the product by which the accrued value will be fully amortized. The expected amortization period of ODM assets is 3 years. The selling price per unit of the ODM asset included in the price of delivery of the product may be higher than its amortization expense. ODM assets may be applied to a larger quantity of units, as may be necessary for amortization purposes.
In the course of modifying an ODM asset by adapting it to the needs of several customers and various products, it is reclassified as property, plant and equipment, if the physical element of the asset is more significant than intangible element. If the development costs included in the asset are an integral part of the related hardware and the intangible components cannot function on their own, it is treated as property, plant and equipment. Where the costs of materials used in the development of ODM assets are prevailing, after its completion the respective asset is classified as property, plant and equipment.
l) Research and development costs
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditures on an individual project are recognized as an intangible asset when the Group can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete and its ability and intention to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete the asset and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development. Other development expenditure is written off.
After initial recognition, development expenditure is recognized as intangible assets at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Assets are amortized over their expected useful lives. At each reporting date, it is analyzed whether there is any indication that the asset may be impaired.
m) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value, except for land and buildings that are stated at fair value. Land is not depreciated. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset, as follows:
| Buildings | over 20 to 33 years |
|---|---|
| Equipment and machinery | over 5 to 8 years |
| Other property, plant and equipment | over 3 to 14 years |
Depreciation starts when the asset is ready for its intended use. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is depreciated separately. To the extent that the Group depreciates separately some parts of property, plant and equipment, it also depreciates separately the remainder of the item. The remainder consists of the parts that are individually insignificant. The depreciation for the remainder is determined using approximation techniques to faithfully represent its useful life.
The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cashgenerating unit to which the asset belongs. Impairment losses are recognized in the cost of sales caption.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in the statement of comprehensive income in the year the item is derecognized.
The Group revalue real estate – land and buildings.
Expenses related to leasehold improvements are capitalized as property, plant and equipment and depreciated over the lease period on a straight-line basis.
Construction in progress represents property, plant and equipment under construction and is stated at historical cost. This includes the cost of construction and other direct expenses. Construction in progress is not depreciated as long as the respective assets are not completed and available for use.
Revaluation of property, plant and equipment
Revaluations have been made with sufficient regularity (not less frequently than every 5 years) to ensure that the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment items subject to valuation does not differ materially from that which would be determined using fair value at the end of reporting period. Real estate (land and buildings) is revalued. The revaluation is performed by certified valuators.
Increase in the carrying amount arising on revaluation net of deferred tax is credited to the 'Other comprehensive income' as "Property, plant and equipment revaluation reserve" in shareholders' equity. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged in 'Other comprehensive income' and debited against the revaluation reserve directly in equity; all other decreases are charged to the current year's Statement of Profit or Loss. Any gross carrying amounts and accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is restated proportionately with the change in the gross carrying amount of the asset so that the carrying amount of the asset after the revaluation equals its revalued amount. Property, plant and equipment revaluation reserve is decreased over the useful life of the asset. Revaluation reserve cannot be distributed in dividends, used for indemnity, reinvested in other reserves, or used for other purposes.
n) Leases
Group and Parent Company as a lessee
Finance leases which transfer to the Group and the Parent Company substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the principal lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are recognized directly in the statement of comprehensive income as interest expense.
If there is reasonable certainty that the lessee will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the period of expected use is the useful life of the asset; otherwise capitalized leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term on a straight-line basis.
Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The commitments undertaken by the Group and the Parent Company with respect to operating lease contracts are recorded as off-balance sheet liabilities.
Group and Parent Company as a lessor
Assets that are leased out under operating lease terms are recognized as property, plant and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis in order to write down each asset over its estimated useful life to its estimated residual value.
Income from operating leases is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
o) Financial assets
Investments in other entities where the Parent Company holds less than 20% of the share capital are classified as financial assets under IAS 39 'Financial instruments'. After the initial recognition, the financial assets subsequently are measured at cost less any impairment loss, if the financial assets have no active market.
Financial assets are classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or available-for-sale financial assets, as appropriate. All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.
The Group and the Parent Company determine the classification of its financial assets on initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates the designation at each financial year end.
All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the trade date, which is the date when the Group and the Parent Company commit to purchase the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the market place.
The carrying values of investments are reviewed for impairment at each financial year-end. The Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the company and its carrying value, then, recognizes the loss in the statement of comprehensive income.
The above accounting policy was effective until 31 December 2017. The new accounting policy is described in Note 2.5 to the financial statements.
p) Financial liabilities
The Group's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, bank overdrafts, loans and borrowings, financial guarantees and derivative financial instruments.
All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction cost.
q) Loans and borrowings
Loans and borrowings are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and borrowings are initially recognized at cost, being the fair value of the consideration received net of issue costs associated with the borrowing.
After initial recognition, loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any issue costs, and any discount or premium on settlement. Gains and losses are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income as finance income or finance costs.
The above accounting policy was effective until 31 December 2017. The new accounting policy is described in Note 2.5 to the financial statements.
r) Factoring
Factoring is a financial transaction and a type of debtor finance in which a business sells its accounts receivable. Proceeds received in accordance with factoring agreements are recognized as prepayments from customers when the Group or the Parent Company remain exposed to credit risk associated with the respective debtor. When credit risk remains with the contracting party, the proceeds are directly netted against the respective debtor balance.
The above accounting policy was effective until 31 December 2017. The new accounting policy is described in Note 2.5 to the financial statements.
s) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less. The statement cash flows has been prepared according to the indirect method by making adjustments to reconcile operating profit with cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities.
t) Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value.
Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition are accounted for as follows:
-
raw materials – purchase cost on a first-in, first-out basis;
-
finished goods and work in progress – cost of direct materials and labor and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Net realizable value is disclosed at the purchase (production) cost less allowances made.
u) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Group and the Parent Company have a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Group and the Parent Company expect some or all of provisions to be reimbursed, for example, under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.
The Company's manufactured products that malfunction, do not correspond to the specifications or have defects may be returned to the Company. The sole responsibility of the Company under the warranty is to repair or replace the nonconfirming or damaged product. This warranty does not apply to:
- Pilot products, prototypes, preproduction units, product testing batches;
- Any products repaired by the seller or third party;
- Any products used wrongfully due to misuse or negligence.
Warranty period is 1 to 2 years and set on an individual basis.Because the warranty provides the customer with the assurance that the product will work as intended for one year, HansaMatrix accounts for this 'assurance-type' warranty in accordance with IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, i.e. a provision is raised for the expected cost of repairing the product in the next 12 months. Assurance-type warranties do not result in a change to current practice re the recognition of revenue, i.e. this does not represent a separate performance obligation.
v) Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables are recognized and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off when recovery is deemed impossible.
Gains and losses are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income when the receivables are derecognized or impaired.
The above accounting policy was effective until 31 December 2017. The new accounting policy is described in Note 2.5 to the financial statements.
w) Contingencies
Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements. They are disclosed unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. A contingent asset is not recognized in the financial statements but disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
x) Related parties
The parties are considered related when one party has a possibility to control the other one or has significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Related parties of the Parent Company are associates and shareholders who could control or who have significant influence over the Parent Company in accepting operating business decisions, key management personnel of the Parent Company including members of Supervisory body – Audit committee and close family members of any above-mentioned persons, as well as entities over which those persons have a control or significant influence. Related parties of the Group does not include subsidiaries.
y) Earnings per share
Earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit after taxation for the year by the average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year. The average number of shares in issue during the year is weighted to take into account the timing of the issue of new shares.
z) Share-Based payments
Under the Senior Executive Plan (SEP), share options of the parent are granted to senior executives of the parent with more than 12 months' service, given that these senior executives meet their individual or company key performance indicators. The exercise price of the share options is equal to the market price of the underlying shares on the date of grant. The share options vest within three years from the date of grant and the senior executive remains employed on such date
The fair value of the share options is estimated using HansaMatrix Nasdaq Riga share price as at the date of fair value estimation. The fair value of the options, determined at the grant date, is expensed over the vesting period, creating equity reserve for SEP share options. Cost is recognized in employee benefits expense, together with a corresponding increase in equity (other capital reserves), over the period in which the service and, where applicable, the performance conditions are fulfilled (the vesting period).
The share options can be exercised without term limitations, after the three-year vesting period. There are no cash settlement alternatives. SEP after the vesting period is entitled to receive HansaMatrix shares free of charge. The Group accounts for the SEP as an equity-settled plan.
2.4. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
a) Subsequent events
Post-year-end events that provide additional information about the Group's and Parent Company's position at the balance sheet date (adjusting events) are reflected in the financial statements. Post-year-end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.
b) Estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, and disclosure of contingencies. The significant areas of judgment used in the preparation of the financial statements relate to capitalization of development costs. Judgments and estimates include depreciation, allowances for doubtful receivables and inventories, and impairment evaluation. Although these estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current events and actions, the actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.
The following are the critical judgments and key estimates concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty which exist at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities during the next reporting period:
Deferred tax assets and liabilities
The Group's management has decided not to distribute the subsidiaries' profit in dividends by 21 April 2022. The Group controls the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and believes that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. The deferred tax liability arising from profits of subsidiaries were not recognized in the Group's financial statements.
Carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment
The Group's management reviews the carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment and assesses whether any indications exist that the assets' recoverable amounts are lower than their carrying amounts. The Group's management calculates and records an impairment loss on property, plant and equipment based on the estimates related to the expected future use, planned disposal or sale of the assets. Taking into consideration the Group's planned level of activities and the estimated market value of the assets, the Group's management considers that no significant adjustments to the carrying values of property, plant and equipment are necessary (Note 14).
Revaluation of property, plant and equipment
Revaluation of certain items of the Group's property, plant and equipment (real estate – buildings and land plots) is performed by external certified valuators by using the amortized replacement cost method. The valuation is performed in accordance with property valuation standards and IAS 36 Impairment of Assets based on the highest and best use of the asset. As a result of the revaluation, the residual replacement cost of each item of property, plant and equipment is established. The residual replacement cost is the current market value of the asset taking into account its current use plus the replacement cost of related improvements in buildings, engineering structures and equipment less depreciation and other impairment. The real estate was revalued as at 31 December 2017 (Note 26) and next revaluation is planned in 2022.
Net realizable value of inventories
The Group's management evaluates the net realizable value of inventories based upon the expected sales prices and selling costs and assesses the physical condition of inventories during the annual stock count. If the net realizable value of inventories is lower than the cost of inventories, an allowance is recorded. The Group's management has evaluated the net realizable value of inventories and considers that it is not necessary to make an additional significant allowance as at 31 December 2018 (Note 19).
Allowances for doubtful and bad receivables
The Company's management evaluates the carrying amounts of receivables and assesses their recoverability, making an allowance for doubtful and bad receivables, if necessary. The Company's management has evaluated the receivables and considers that it is not necessary to make an additional significant allowance as at 31 December 2018 (Note 20). The above accounting policy was effective until 31 December 2017. The new accounting policy is described in Note 2.5 to the financial statements.
Impairment of financial assets
The Group and the Parent Company assesses at each statement of financial position date whether a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. Such reversal is recognized in statement of comprehensive income.
The above accounting policy was effective until 31 December 2017. The new accounting policy is described in Note 2.5 to the financial statements.
2.4. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions (cont'd)
Impairment of non-financial assets
At the end of each reporting period the Group and the Parent Company assess whether there are any indicators of impairment for a non-financial asset or a group of non-financial assets (investments in subsidiaries and associates). The assessment is disclosed in Note 15.
Capitalization of development costs
The Group and the Parent Company capitalize development costs according to the accounting policy. The management makes its estimates based on the facts and circumstances specific to each particular project. Initially, the costs are capitalized on the basis of the management judgment regarding the technological and economic feasibility of the respective project. Such judgment is considered the basis for the capitalization of costs which subsequently upon recognition and once a year is tested for impairment until the development stage is completed and the certificates required in the laws and regulations are obtained.
For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the Group and the Parent Company first assesses whether impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Group and the Parent Company determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment.
Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognized are not included in a collective assessment of impairment. The amount of any impairment loss identified is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future expected credit losses that have not yet been incurred). The present value of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the loss is recognized in statement of comprehensive income. If, in a subsequent year, the amount of the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is increased or reduced by adjusting the allowance account. If a write-off is later recovered, the recovery is credited to finance costs in the statement of comprehensive income (Notes 15 and 16).
Segment reporting
Reportable segments are operating segments or their aggregation which meet certain criteria. No less frequently than once a year, the Group and the Parent Company assess and identify all potential business segments and determine whether these segments should be accounted for separately. The company reports the segment if it contributes 10% or more of the entity's total sales (combining internal and inter-segment sales), earns 10% or more of the combined reported profit of all operating segments that did not report a loss (or 10% or more of the combined reported loss of all operating segments that reported a loss), or has 10% or more of the combined assets of all operating segments.
The Group and the Parent Company have one business segment, i.e. the manufacturing services, on which specific financial information is available, which is regularly assessed by key decision-makers to allocate resources and evaluate the performance of this segment. In addition to segment reporting, the Group and the Parent Company also disclose the sales results by main market sectors – data network infrastructure products, the Internet of Things, industrial products and other as well as by geographical market sectors.
Convertible loans
The Group and Parent Company's assets include convertible loans to associates. The Group and the Parent Company have assessed the impact of these convertible loans for determining whether the Group and the Parent Company have a decisive control over the associates. It was concluded that the convertible loans do not affect the control degree of the Group and the Parent Company over the associates as, in accordance with Chapter 2, Article 196 of the Commercial Law of the Republic of Latvia, a share capital of any entity be increased or reduced only on the basis of a decision of a shareholders' meeting in which the regulations for the increase or reduction of the share capital have been specified; and a decision on changes in the share capital is regarded as taken, if not less than two-thirds of votes of the shareholders present vote for it, unless a greater number of votes is specified in the Articles of Association
The accounting policies and key accounting assumptions regarding warrants, investment loans and other financial assets are disclosed in Note 2.5 to the financial statements.
Share-Based payments
The key accounting assumptions are disclosed in Note 2.3(z).
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 and the Parent Company as of 1 January 2018:
IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
IFRS 15 establishes a five-step model that applies 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 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).
For the first time the Group and the Parent Company applied IFRS 15 to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018 with an initial application date of 1 January 2018 and have elected to adopt IFRS 15 retrospectively using the cumulative effect method. Under this method, the standard can be applied either to all contracts at the date of initial application or only to contracts that are not completed at this date. The Group elected to apply the standard to all contracts that are not completed at 1 January 2018.
The adoption of this standard does not have a significant impact on the Group and the Parent Company's financial statements as the Group and the Parent Company do not have any significant long-term agreements that would include multiple deliverable arrangements and that would be recognized according to IFRS 15; accordingly, the effect of the adoption of this standard on the total revenue of the Group and the Parent Company manifests as reclassification of revenue.
The adoption of IFRS 15 as of 1 January 2018, does not have any impact on the Group and the Parent Company's balances.
Set out below, are the amounts by which each financial statement line item is affected as at and for the year ended 31 December 2018 as a result of the adoption of IFRS 15. The adoption of IFRS 15 did not have a material impact on OCI or the Group's operating, investing and financing cash flows. The first column shows amounts prepared under IFRS 15 and the second column shows what the amounts would have been had IFRS 15 not been adopted:

Revenue recognition (as of 1 January 2018)
Revenue from contracts with customers
AS HansaMatrix is in the business of developing and manufacturing electronic systems. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group and the parent Company expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Group and the Parent Company have concluded that the control of distinct goods or services (performance obligation) is exercised at a certain point in time.
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the parent Company and the revenue can be reliably measured, less value added tax and sales-related discounts.
a) Sale of goods and services
Revenue from sale of goods and services is recognized at the point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognized upon actual transfer of control that is justified by a signature of the representative of the customer or carrier confirming the receipt. Trade receivables are generally due in 30 - 90 days after delivery.
The Group and the Parent Company consider whether there are other promises in the contract that are separate performance obligations to which a portion of the transaction price needs to be allocated (e.g., warranties). In determining the transaction price for the sale of goods, the Group considers the effects of variable consideration, the existence of significant financing components, and consideration payable to the customer (if any).
If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the Group and the Parent Company estimate the amount of consideration to which they will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolve.
b) Volume rebates
The Group and the Parent Company provide retrospective volume rebates to certain customers once the quantity of products purchased during the period exceeds a threshold specified in the contra. Rebates are only applied to the aggregate amount of goods purchased in the relevant period (in one calendar month) and are not attributed to other periods. Rebates are offset against amounts payable by the customer.
c) Significant financing component
Generally, the Group and the Parent Company receive short-term advances from its customers. Using the practical expedient in IFRS 15, the Group and the Parent Company do not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if it expects, at contract inception, that the period between the transfer of the promised good or service to the customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less.
In cases where the period exceeds one year, the transaction price for such contracts is discounted, using the rate that would be reflected in a separate financing transaction between the Group and its customers at contract inception, to take into consideration the significant financing component.
d) Principle versus agent Consideration
In most cases the Group operates as a principal in providing production services to the clients. However in some cases, the Parent Company receives from its customers materials that are used in manufacturing the products ordered by customers and returned to customers. These materials are owned by customers and are only intended for executing a particular customer order, and the Parent Company accepts them only for processing. The cost of the materials belonging to customers is recorded off-balance sheet as the Parent Company does not have the ability to direct the use of the equipment or obtain benefits from the equipment.
Contract assets (as at 31 December 2018, the Group and the Parent Company have no such assets)
Contract asset is an entity's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the entity has transferred to a customer. Where the Group and the Parent Company transfer goods or services to a customer before the customer pays the consideration or the payment is made, contract assets are recognized to the extent of the consideration earned.
Receivables (Trade receivables from contracts with customers; Receivables from related companies from contracts with customers)
A receivable represents the Group and Parent Company's right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due).
Contract liabilities (prepayments received under contracts with customers)
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group and the Parent Company have received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Group and the Parent Company transfer goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognized when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Group and the Parent Company perform under the contract.
Income from investments
The Group and the Parent Company recognize income from investments (dividends) only when the right to receive the payment is established.
IFRS 9 Financial instruments
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 Group applied IFRS 9 prospectively, with an initial application date of 1 January 2018. The Group has not restated the comparative information, which continues to be reported under IAS 39. Differences arising from the adoption of IFRS 9 have been recognized directly in retained earnings and other components of equity.
a) Classification and measurement
The Group classifies financial assets into: a) financial assets at amortized cost, b) equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI), c) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), and d) debt investments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).
The Group classifies financial liabilities into the following categories: a) financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, and b) financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).
b) Financial assets at amortized cost
A financial asset (except for trade receivables) is measured at amortized cost in case it satisfies both of the following requirements and is not classified as at FVTPL: a) it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and b) its contractual terms on specified dates ensures cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest. These assets are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, directly attributable to their acquisition. After the initial recognition, the assets are measured at amortized cost applying the effective interest rate method. The amortized cost value is decreased by impairment losses. Foreign exchange gains and losses, impairment, and interest income are recognized in profit or loss statement. On derecognition, any gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss statement.
c) Equity investments at FVTOCI
Upon initial recognition, the Group can choose to irrevocably classify its equity investments as equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI, in case these investments a) meet the definition of equity instrument under IAS 32 Financial Instruments and b) and are not held for trading. The Group evaluates and applies this classification for each instrument separately. These instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, directly attributable to their acquisition. After the initial recognition, these instruments are measured at fair value. Dividends are recorded in profit or loss statement. Other net gains and losses are accumulated in OCI and are never applied or reclassified to profit or loss statement.
d) Financial assets at FVTPL
These financial instruments include financial assets held for trading and financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss. Financial instruments are deemed as held for trading in case they are planned to be sold in the short term. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading, except when they are hedging instruments. Financial instruments with contractual cash flows that are not solely principal and interest payments are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss. For these instruments directly attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. After the initial recognition, these instruments are measured at fair value. Net value changes are recognized in profit or loss statement.
e) Debt investments at FVTOCI
A debt investment is measured at FVTOCI if it meets both of the following requirements and is not classified as at FVTPL: a) it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows and to sell these financial assets; and b) its contractual terms on specified dates ensures cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest. These assets are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to their acquisition. After the initial recognition, the assets are measured at fair value. Foreign exchange gains and losses, interest income calculated using the effective interest method, and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI). In case of derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss.
f) Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost
A financial liability is measured at amortized cost in case it is not held-for-trading and is not designated as held-for-trading in the initial recognition. These financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value less directly attributable transaction costs. After the initial recognition, these liabilities are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate.
g) Financial liabilities measured at FVTPL
A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL in case it is held-for-trading or is designated as held-for-trading in the initial recognition. For this type of liabilities, directly attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss statement, as incurred. Liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value, with changes in value and interest expense recognized through profit or loss statement.
The Group uses derivative financial instruments. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.
Derivative embedded in a hybrid contract, with a financial liability is separated from the host and accounted for as a separate derivative if: the economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to the host; a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and the hybrid contract is not measured at fair value through profit or loss. Embedded derivatives are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss. Reassessment only occurs if there is either a change in the terms of the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows that would otherwise be required or a reclassification of a financial asset out of the fair value through profit or loss.
The assessment of the Group's business model was made as of the date of initial application, 1 January 2018. The assessment of whether contractual cash flows on debt instruments are solely comprised of principal and interest was made based on the facts and circumstances as at the initial recognition of the assets.
In summary, upon the adoption of IFRS 9, the Group had the following required or elected reclassifications as at 1 January 2018.

h) Practical application to key financial asset groups
Loans to shareholders
As the Group and the Parent Company hold this financial asset to collect contractual cash flows representing solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, this financial instrument is measured at amortized cost according to the new standard.
Other investment loans
The Group and the Parent Company hold these financial assets to collect contractual cash flows representing solely payments of principal. However, considering that the Group and the Parent Company have an option of conversion of these loans into the borrower's equity shares, these financial instruments, according to IFRS 9, are measured at fair value through profit or loss. No less frequently than once a year, the Group and the Parent Company determine the fair value of these financial instruments. If the fair value obtained after the application of the valuation technique differs from the net current amount, the Group and the Parent Company recognize the respective change through profit or loss. The fair value measurement policy is disclosed in the section "Fair value measurement" of Note 2.5 to the financial statements.
Investments in other companies
Equity investments in non-listed companies classified as AFS financial assets as at 31 December 2018 are classified and measured as Equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI beginning 1 January 2018. The Group elected to classify irrevocably its non-listed equity investments under this category at the date of initial application as it intends to hold these investments for the foreseeable future. There were no impairment losses recognized in profit or loss for these investments in prior periods. The fair value measurement policy is disclosed in the section "Fair value measurement" of Note 2.5 to the financial statements.
Factoring
The Group and the Parent Company splits trade receivable balances in two portfolios based on a business model.
- Trade receivables from contracts with customers within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows are accounted at amortized cost and reviewed for impairment as disclosed in Note 2.5 (j).
- Trade receivables from contracts with customers held with the only objective of selling the financial assets are accounted for at FVTPL.
Proceeds received in accordance with factoring agreements are recognized as prepayments from customers when the Group or the Parent Company remain exposed to credit risk associated with the respective debtor. When credit risk remains with the contracting party or the factor, the proceeds are netted against the respective debtor balance. For the existing factoring agreements, the Group and the Parent Company only recognize the portion of the receivable that is not factorized in their statement of financial position - usually 10%. The portion of the receivable that is not factorized is stated at FVTPL based on the expected cash flows.
Taking into account that the 10% repayment is usually done within a period of 2-3 months, the time value of money does not significantly affect the FV of the remaining receivable.
Other bank loans
There are no changes in the classification and measurement of the Group's financial liabilities.
Trade receivables from contracts with customers
Trade receivables are measured at the transaction price determined under IFRS 15.
Other financial liabilities
Loan contracts with embedded derivative contain an optional obligation for an entity to purchase its own equity. As financial instrument contains a cash settlement option, during the initial recognition financial derivative (warrant put option) is separated from the host loan contract and accounted as separate instrument. Group measures such embedded derivatives at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss. The fair value of derivative was determined using Black-Scholes model.
i) Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The Group measures the fair value of a financial instrument using the quoted price in an active public market for that instrument, when available. An active market is one in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
In case a financial instrument measured at fair value has a bid price and an ask price, then the Group measures the assets at a bid price and liabilities - at an ask price.
When there is no quoted price in an active market, the Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances that maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
Fair value of a financial instrument applied on initial recognition is normally the transaction price.
i) Fair value measurement (cont'd)
When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses observable market data as far as possible. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows: Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices), Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)
The Group recognizes transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.
j) Impairment
The adoption of IFRS 9 has fundamentally changed the Group's accounting for impairment losses for financial assets, measured at amortized cost by replacing IAS 39's incurred loss approach with a forward-looking expected credit loss (ECL) approach.
The Group recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) for financial assets measured at amortized cost and contract assets. The impairment model is based on the premise of providing for expected losses.
Impairment is measured with one of the following approaches: a) 12-month ECLs: these are ECLs that result from possible default events within the 12 months after the reporting date; and b) lifetime ECLs: these are ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.
For trade receivables and contract assets, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. A loss allowance is established equal to the amount of credit losses expected over the remaining life of the asset (lifetime ECLs). For receivables, the Group and the Parent Company measure the ECLs based on the historical data for the last 3 years, and where the historical data are not available, make assumptions using the following matrix:
| Past due status | Expected credit loss rate % |
|---|---|
| Total neither past due nor impaired | 0,3% |
| Past due from 1 to 30 days | 1% |
| Past due from 31 to 60 days | 5% |
| Past due from 61 to 90 days | 10% |
| Past due from 91 to 120 days | 15% |
| Past due from 121 to 180 days | 40% |
| Past due from 181 to 270 days | 70% |
| Past due over 270 days | 100% |
For individually assessed financial assets that are measured at amortized cost (Loan to shareholder) the IFRS 9 general approach is used, applying the Expected Credit Losses Model, which foresees calculating the financial asset value adjustments as the product of three variables: Exposure at Default (EAD), Loss Given Default (LGD) and the Probability of Default (PD). The last 2 variables are estimated based on the publicly available relevant industry data.
For financial assets measured at amortized cost, considered to have acceptable credit risk, the ECLs are based on the 12 month ECLs. However, when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since origination, the allowance is based on the lifetime ECLs.
Impairment effect resulting upon the adoption of IFRS 9 as at 1 January 2018 is not material.
Standards issued but not yet effective and not early adopted
Amendment in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures: 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. The management has assessed the impact of this standard and considers that the changes will not have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Group and the Parent Company.
IFRS 9: Prepayment features with negative compensation (Amendment)
The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 with earlier application permitted. The amendment allows financial assets with prepayment features that permit or require a party to a contract either to pay or receive reasonable compensation for the early termination of the contract (so that, from the perspective of the holder of the asset there may be 'negative compensation'), to be measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income. The management has assessed the impact of this standard and considers that the changes will not have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Group and the Parent Company.
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.
AS HansaMatrix plans to adopt IFRS 16 Leases for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. IFRS 16 will be adopted applying the modified retrospective approach. Under this approach, the cumulative effect of initially applying IFRS 16 is recognized as an adjustment to equity at the date of initial application. (The standard also requires to revise the leases signed before 1 January 2019, only allowing for not reassessing the compliance of the contract with the lease definition and not applying the standard to the leases expiring in 2019.)
Within the meaning of IFRS 16, a lease can be recognized if there is an identified asset and if the customer has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use.
First, a lease liability is measured at the present value of all contractual future lease payments discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease (or similar borrowing rate). Lease liabilities are recognized as any other liabilities. A right to use asset is recognized under property, plant and equipment or as a separate item under non-current assets. When discounting is used, interest expense on the lease liability is recognized.
As a result of the adoption of IFRS as of 1 January 2019, the asset amount has increased by EUR 1 752 601, current liabilities – by EUR 551 863 EUR and non-current liabilities – by EUR 1 200 738.
IAS 28: Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures (Amendments)
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 with earlier application permitted. The amendments relate to whether the measurement, in particular impairment requirements, of long term interests in associates and joint ventures that, in substance, form part of the 'net investment' in the associate or joint venture should be governed by IFRS 9, IAS 28 or a combination of both. The amendments clarify that an entity applies IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, before it applies IAS 28, to such long-term interests for which the equity method is not applied. In applying IFRS 9, the entity does not take account of any adjustments to the carrying amount of long- term interests that arise from applying IAS 28. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. The management has assessed the impact of this standard and considers that the changes will not have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Group and the Parent Company.
IFRIC interpretation 23: Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments
The interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 with earlier application permitted. The Interpretation addresses the accounting for income taxes when tax treatments involve uncertainty that affects the application of IAS 12. The interpretation provides guidance on considering uncertain tax treatments separately or together, examination by tax authorities, the appropriate method to reflect uncertainty and accounting for changes in facts and circumstances. The management has assessed the impact of this interpretation and considers that the changes will not have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Group and the Parent Company.
IAS 19: Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement (Amendments)
The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 with earlier application permitted. The amendments require entities to use updated actuarial assumptions to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the annual reporting period after a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement has occurred. The amendments also clarify how the accounting for a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement affects applying the asset ceiling requirements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. The management has assessed the impact of this standard and considers that the changes will not have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Group and the Parent Company.
Conceptual Framework in IFRS standards
IASB issued the revised Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting on 29 March 2018. The Conceptual Framework sets out a comprehensive set of concepts for financial reporting, standard setting, guidance for preparers in developing consistent accounting policies and assistance to others in their efforts to understand and interpret the standards. IASB also issued a separate accompanying document, Amendments to References to the Conceptual Framework in IFRS Standards, which sets out the amendments to affected standards in order to update references to the revised Conceptual Framework. Its objective is to support transition to the revised Conceptual Framework for companies that develop accounting policies using the Conceptual Framework when no IFRS Standard applies to a particular transaction. For preparers who develop accounting policies based on the Conceptual Framework, it is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020.
IFRS 3: Business Combinations (Amendments)
The IASB issued amendments in Definition of a Business (amendments to IFRS 3) aimed at resolving the difficulties that arise when an entity determines whether it has acquired a business or a group of assets. The amendments are effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is in the first annual reporting period beginning on or after 1 January 2020 and to asset acquisitions that occur on or after the beginning of that period, with earlier application permitted. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. The management has assessed the impact of this standard and considers that the changes will not have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Group and the Parent Company.
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: Definition of 'material' (Amendments)
The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020 with earlier application permitted. The amendments clarify the definition of material and how it should be applied. The new definition states that, 'Information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity'. In addition, the explanations accompanying the definition have been improved. The amendments also ensure that the definition of material is consistent across all IFRS Standards. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. The management has assessed the impact of this standard and considers that the changes will not have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Group and the Parent Company.
The IASB has issued the Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2015 – 2017 Cycle, which is a collection of amendments to IFRSs. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 with earlier application permitted. These annual improvements have not yet been endorsed by the EU. The management has assessed the impact of these improvements and considers that the changes will not have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Group and the Parent Company.
- IFRS 3 Business Combinations and IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements: The amendments to IFRS 3 clarify that when an entity obtains control of a business that is a joint operation, it remeasures previously held interests in that business. The amendments to IFRS 11 clarify that when an entity obtains joint control of a business that is a joint operation, the entity does not remeasure previously held interests in that business.
- IAS 12 Income Taxes: The amendments clarify that the income tax consequences of payments on financial instruments classified as equity should be recognized according to where the past transactions or events that generated distributable profits has been recognized.
- IAS 23 Borrowing Costs: The amendments clarify paragraph 14 of the standard that, when a qualifying asset is ready for its intended use or sale, and some of the specific borrowing related to that qualifying asset remains outstanding at that point, that borrowing is to be included in the funds that an entity borrows generally.

* In 2017, deferred tax liabilities were reversed in the statement of profit or loss and reserves, as they were initially recorded in reserves, pursuant to amendments made to the tax legislation of the Republic of Latvia, which entered into force on 1 January 2018.
In accordance with the Corporate Income Tax Law, a taxable person which has reported a loss as at 31 December 2017 in their corporate income tax return may decrease corporate income tax charged for dividends in the reporting year by the amount equal to 15 per cent of the total uncovered loss. If this amount is not used or is used only partially in the reporting year, the balance (tax on uncovered loss) may be attributed to corporate income tax which will be charged on dividends in the subsequent four reporting years by decreasing the balance (tax on uncovered loss) to the extent of the discount used each year accordingly.

SIA HansaMatrix Ventspils (hereinafter – the Company) is a subsidiary, established on 1 November 2005 (until 26 April 2016 named SIA Ventspils Elektronikas Fabrika). The Company was established in order to create for AS HansaMatrix a second manufacturing plant at a sufficient distance from the Riga region to have a reasonably separate labor market. The creation of a second manufacturing plant was necessary so that, as the company develops, the size of the labor force at the first manufacturing plant in Pārogre would not exceed 200 employees, which is considered to be the top limit for a flexible and well-managed production organization.
Currently, Ventspils manufacturing plant ensures integrated production services mostly for clients who require box build processes. The business model is to sell production services to the parent company, who manages the added value chain from raw materials and component sourcing to selling the final product to the client.
As at 31 December 2018, the equity of SIA HansaMatrix Ventspils was EUR 934 thousand and the profit for 2018 amounted to EUR 217 thousand. The Parent Company intends to increase its orders to the subsidiary, and to continue increasing its contracting with the subsidiary. The Company's equity exceeds the investment's net carrying amount in the Parent Company's balance sheet, which is EUR 427 thousand as at 31 December 2018. The Parent Company has no reservations about the investment recoverability.
SIA HansaMatrix Innovation (hereinafter– the Company) is a subsidiary, established on 6 August 2014 (until 26 April 2016 known as SIA Mārupes Elektronikas Tehnoloģijas). The company was established to develop new products, automation solutions and innovations, as well as to develop a rapid industrialization organization, including the manufacture of prototypes, offering a ''fast time to market'' solution for new products. Currently, a number of engineering groups have been established in the subsidiary, which are working on developing new electronics, optics, precision mechanics and robotics products.
The subsidiary has a business model of selling hourly engineering labor costs to the parent company, which in turn manages the client orders.
On 19 June 2018, HansaMatrix increased the share capital of SIA HansaMatrix Innovation by issuing 2 800 new shares with a par value of EUR 100 each. After its increase, the share capital of SIA HansaMatrix Innovation is EUR 300 000 and consists of 3 000 shares. The par value of each share is EUR 100. The shares are owned by AS HansaMatrix (100%).

A convertible zero-interest investment loan of EUR 1 209 thousand issued to SIA Zinātnes Parks was used for taking over a lease on a land plot of 4.51 ha, the purchase of a partially constructed building and designing on the Riga International Airport territory the construction of the high-tech park RIX Hi Tech City with a total area of 26 thousand m2 . The loan agreement provides that the loan can be either repaid or re-financed in the future. AS HansaMatrix additionally reserves the right to request a conversion of the loan into share capital at par value.
After completing the infrastructure for the hi-tech industrial park RIX Hi Tech City at Riga Airport, AS HansaMatrix intends to sell to real estate investors its investments – both as shares and by refinancing the investment loan.
The fair value of an investment loan is determined on the basis of the cash flow projections for 7 years assuming that the sales growth will be in line with the business development strategy. The estimate depends, inter alia, on the assumptions regarding the discount rate. In 2018, a discount rate of 9.37 % was applied (2017: 7.03%).
The convertible interest-free investment loan SIA Lightspace Technologies for financing the development of 3D imaging technologies was issued in 2017 and 2018 and as at 31 December 2018 totaled EUR 2.5 million.
The purpose of the loan to SIA Lightspace Technologies is the development of optically deep 3D image display technologies and innovative product development on the basis thereof. One of the assets of SIA Lightspace Technologies is the 100% owned SIA Lightspace Technologies, Inc. (Delaware), which in turn has approximately 10 patents on volumetric multiplanar 3D displays; the latter secures the intellectual property rights for this innovation in most of the world, including the USA, Europe, China, Korea and other territories.
It is also a part of AS HansaMatrix development strategy envisioning equity investments in companies which have a synergy with AS HansaMatrix integrated manufacturing service and with SIA HansaMatrix Innovation engineering and knowledge resources, and which can lead to new, high value-added product manufacturing within 3 to 5 years.
The fair value of an investment loan is determined on the basis of the cash flow projections for 6 years assuming that the sales growth will be in line with the business development strategy. The estimate depends, inter alia, on the assumptions regarding the discount rate. In 2018, a discount rate of 15 % was applied (2017: 15 %).
In assessing the potential impact of the above mentioned convertible loans of AS HansaMatrix on its control over SIA Zinātnes parks and SIA LightSpace Technologies, it can be concluded that the convertible loan does not affect the control level of AS HansaMatrix over SIA Zinātnes parks and SIA LightSpace Technologies as, in accordance with Chapter 2, Article 196 of the Commercial Law of the Republic of Latvia, a share capital of any entity be increased or reduced only on the basis of a decision of a shareholders' meeting in which the regulations for the increase or reduction of the share capital have been specified; and a decision on changes in the share capital is regarded as taken, if not less than two-thirds of votes of the shareholders present vote for it, unless a greater number of votes is specified in the Articles.

Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in the market interest rates. The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in the market interest rates relates primarily to the Group's non-current borrowings with floating interest rates.
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk mainly through its current and non-current borrowings. The average interest rate payable on the Group's borrowings is disclosed in Note 27.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, of the Group's profit before tax (through the impact on mainly EURIBOR floating rate borrowings). There is no impact on the equity, except for the effect on the current year result.
Interest rate sensitivity for the Group and the Parent Company may be specified as follows:
| Effect on profit before tax | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year | EURIBOR | EUR | |||
| 2018 +0.5% |
(29 148) | ||||
| 2017 | (21 218) | ||||
| 2018 +1.0% |
(58 297) | ||||
| 2017 | (42 436) | ||||
| 2018 -0.5% |
29 148 | ||||
| 2017 | 21 218 |
In 2018, the calculation method was changes – the impact of the change in interest rate on the profit is calculated by multiplying all liability balances (including maximum credit line limits) as at 31 December 2018 by the respective change in the interest rate.
The calculation method used in 2017 required to recalculate the effective interest rate for all financial liabilities for the whole reporting year by increasing or reducing it respectively.
The calculation method was changed in order to reflect more precisely the risk associated with future interest rate fluctuations by using maximum balances of financial liabilities at the last day of the reporting period.
Liquidity risk
The Group manages its liquidity risk by arranging an adequate amount of committed credit facilities with banks, planning of terms of payment of trade payables, developing and analyzing future cash flows comprising both the existing and planned loans and interest on such loans.
The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Group's financial liabilities as at 31 December 2018 based on contractual undiscounted payments. Group

Credit risk
The Group is exposed to credit risk through its trade receivables and cash. The Group manages its credit risk by continuously assessing the credit history of customers and assigning trade credit limits and terms on an individual basis. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis to ensure that the Group's exposure to bad debts is minimized. Moreover, the Group enters into insured factoring contracts to minimize this risk. The Group's counterparties in money transactions are local financial institutions.

Capital management
The primary objective of the Group's capital management is to ensure that the Group maintains a strong credit rating and healthy capital ratios to support its business and increase the shareholder value. The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions.
The Group and the Parent Company monitor the capital adequacy by calculating the equity-to-asset ratio:
| Group | 31.12.2018 | 31.12.2017 |
|---|---|---|
| EUR | EUR | |
| Equity | 8 770 491 | 8 134 812 |
| Total assets | 25 349 981 | 18 662 137 |
| Equity-to-asset ratio | 35% | 44% |
| Parent Company | 31.12.2018 | 31.12.2017 |
| EUR | EUR | |
| Equity | 8 136 819 | 7 622 657 |
| Total assets | 22 503 225 | 15 752 903 |
| Equity-to-asset ratio | 36% | 48% |
In the reporting period, both the equity level and the equity-to-asset ratio grew significantly. The existing equity level is more than sufficient for sound operations of the Group and meets the financial covenants set by the lending bank with a good margin. It is also sufficient to obtain new bank loans, if necessary.
41. Fair value
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities represent the amount at which the financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between independent willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

Assets measured at fair value are revalued property, plant and equipment (Note 14), which are revalued on non-recurring basis (once every five years) and would be classified under Level 3.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
- Cash and short-term deposits, trade receivables, trade payables and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
- The fair value of the loans and borrowings has been calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows at prevailing interest rates, which are based on Level 2 measurement. No material difference between book value and fair value has been recognized.
42. Going concern
As at 31 December 2018, the Group's working capital (current assets) totaled EUR 7.341 million, incl., a cash balance of EUR 2.377 million. As at 31 December 2018, the liquidity ratio was 1.02 which demonstrated that the Group has sufficient current assets at its disposal.
The Group's management has prepared the budget and cash flow projection for the year 2019 ensuring adequate resources for financing the Group's operating activities as well as the expected investment flows. The key assumptions used in the Group's cash flow and liquidity projection for the year 2019 are as follows:
- No significant changes occur either in the business environment or the market both in the EU and Latvia;
- In 2019, the Group continues increasing its business volume in accordance with the Group's 3-year turnover and profitability projection published in the information exchange system of AS Nasdaq Riga on 31 August 2017;
- The Group continues investing in property, plant and equipment by increasing production capacity and process automation;
- In 2019, the working capital is considerably increased from the Group's operating cash flow;
- The Group continues investing in strategic development projects and as the source of investment financing is used repayments of the loan issued to the shareholder or financial resources equivalent to own funds raised in the financial markets; at the level of individual strategic projects, funding is also obtained from strategic or financial investors;
- In 2018, the Group entered into a EUR 10 million financing agreement with the European Investment Bank. The objective of the funding is to support the AS HansaMatrix Group's planned investments in 2018-2020 amounting to EUR 20 million. The funds granted by the European Investment Bank are mainly intended for co-funding the R&D activities, IT system development, boosting the production capacity at Ogre and Ventspils manufacturing plants and investments in production automation, thus facilitating the business growth as well as for increasing the current assets.
- On 10 December 2018, the Group entered into factoring agreements with SIA SEB līzings for a period of one year with the total factoring limit EUR 2.56. The objective of the agreement is to speed up the current asset movement. The above factoring agreements will replace the factoring agreements signed with AS Swedbank līzings.
- The Group raises funds for investments from commercial banks, as applicable.
Future developments in the business environment may differ from the forecasts of the Group's management.
43. Events after the reporting date
On 1 February 2019, 205 298 warrants owned by the European Investment Bank (EIB) and issued according to the EUR 10 million financing agreement signed between AS HansaMatrix and EIB AS were registered with Nasdaq CSD SE.
On 17 March 2019, the Parent Company signed a EUR 2 million loan agreement with AS SEB banka to obtain a partial funding for the implementation of project No 1.2.1.4/16/A/021 "Development of Experimental Production of 3D Volumetric Imaging Equipment and its Components" under activity 1.2.1.4 "Support in introduction of new products into production" of specific objective 1.2.1 "To increase investments of private sector in R&D" of the operational program "Growth and Employment". To secure the loan, the Parent Company will pledge the real estate at Akmeņu iela 72 and Akmeņu iela 74, Ogre, its own movable property and establish a financial pledge on its settlement accounts with AS SEB banka.
