Interim Financial Statements of Icelandair Group hf. 30 September 2014
Amounts are in USD thousands


Notes

  1. Reporting entity

Icelandair Group hf. (the "Company") is a public limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in Iceland. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company as at and for the nine months ended 30 September 2014 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group") and the Group's interests in associates. The Group primarily operates in the airline transportation and tourism industry. The Company is listed on the Nasdaq OMX Iceland.

The Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2013 are available upon request from the Company's registered office at Reykjavíkurflugvöllur in Reykjavík, Iceland or at its website address, www.icelandairgroup.is and at The Icelandic Stock Exchange website, www.nasdaqomx.com.

  1. Basis of preparation

a. Statement of compliance

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of the Group since the last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2013. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the information required for full annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 30 October 2014.

Except as described below the accounting policies and methods of computation applied by the Group in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2013.

b. Restatement of comparative figures

When preparing the financial statements, new and improved methods of eliminating intercompany transactions were put in place. As the change affects the classification of cost, comparative figures for 2013 have been adjusted accordingly. The effect on the comparative figures is a reduction in Aircraft and aircrew lease of USD 18.6 million and comparative increase in Aircraft maintenance expenses. Insignificant adjustments were made to other line items of operating expenses. The restatement of the comparative amounts has no other effect on the consolidated financial statements.

  1. Significant accounting policies

Functional and presentation currency

These condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are presented in U.S. dollars (USD), which is the Company's functional currency. All financial information presented in USD has been rounded to the nearest thousand, except when otherwise indicated.

The Group has adopted all new standards and amendments to standards with a date of initial application of 1 January 2014 that have been approved by the EU.

Interim Financial Statements of Icelandair Group hf. 30 September 2014


Notes, contd.:

4. Judgements and estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2013.

Measurement of fair values

A number of the Group's accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

The Group has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. The management has overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements, including Level 3 fair values.

The management regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information, such as broker quotes or pricing services, is used to measure fair values, then management assesses the evidence obtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that such valuations meet the requirements of IFRS, including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which such valuations should be classified.

Significant valuation issues are reported to the Group Audit Committee.

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorised 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).

If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability might be categorised in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.

The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.
