Company's interim report for the 9 month period of 2019


INTERIM REPORT

MANAGEMENT'S FOREWORD

Dear customers, shareholders, partners and employees,

The main performance indicators of Ignitis Gamyba have been steadily improving over the first 9 months of 2019, even despite the draught that hit Lithuania in spring and summer. Efficient use of the Kruonis Pumped Storage HPP (Kruonis PSHP) potential, positive results of the stocked fuel-oil and scrap-iron sales and increased volume of the regulated services provided by Elektrenai Complex resulted in 13.4% higher adjusted EBITDA of the Company – in Q3 of 2019, it reached EUR 42.9 million in comparison to EUR 37.9 million in Q3 of 2018.

The total revenue of the company amounted to EUR 115.6 million, 14.3% more if compared to January-September 2019, whereas the net profit grew by more than one-fifth and reached EUR 37.9 million. Other Company's profitability indicators – operating profit margin, profit before tax margin, and net profit margin has been slightly higher if compared to the same period in 2018. This has been partly determined by the EUR 9.3 million remittance received from the Ministry of Finance in spring 2019, of which the company has announced previously.

Hydrological draught negatively affected the results generated by Kaunas A. Brazauskas' HPP (Kaunas HPP) – due to insufficient inflow of the river Nemunas its production volumes decreased by 24.7% and amounted to 0.21 TWh during January-September this year. However, the lower results of Kaunas HPP have been compensated by a substantially higher sales margin of the Kruonis PSHP which production volumes increased by 27.2% (up to 0.42 TWh) due to effective exploitation of the favourable difference between daily peak and night-time electricity prices. As in 2018, the production volumes in Elektrenai Complex remained limited.

Implementing its essential mission, this year the Company successfully provided various ancillary services that are vital to the stability and security of the region's electricity supply systems. As in 2018, this year Ignitis Gamyba ensured the secondary active power reserve, a service provided by two hydrounits of Kruonis PSHP in the scope of 400 MW. The tertiary active power reserve in the scope of 260 MW has been ensured by the most effective unit of Elektrenai Complex – the combined cycle unit (CCU). CCU has been constantly ready to produce electricity and contribute to the overall security of the energy system.

In January-September 2019, 0.21 TWh of electricity has been generated in Kaunas A. Brazauskas HPP and 0.42 TWh in Kruonis PSHP. As in 2018, the production volumes in Elektrenai Complex remained limited. In total, 0.67 TWh of electricity was sold in the NordPool exchange, slightly less (6.9%) if compared to 0.72 TWh in January-September 2018.

While taking constant care for the reliable and stable work of the Company's power plants, our team continued intensive preparations for the projects of huge importance to the entire energy system. In May, we successfully participated in a test of Lithuanian electricity system restoration after a total failure and isolated work of a part of the system, which proved we are prepared to act on time and ensure provision of electricity to the country's consumers. In Elektrenai Complex, the dismantling of units 5 and 6 of the reserve power plant has been continued as well. Moreover, we carried out preparatory works for the possible modernisation of the Kruonis PSHP – in September, a study of the pile field and infrastructure was completed, partially funded by the European Commission. We expect that the technological alternatives' study and socioeconomic study will be finished in the first half of 2020. In the beginning of October, Ignitis Gamyba successfully launched its first 1 MW community solar power plant project in the platform Ignitis Saules Parkai.

I am glad we managed to make a substantial progress implementing new projects. In January-September, preparatory works for the installation of the experimental solar power plant in Kruonis PSHP, installation of the energy storage device in Kaunas Algirdas Brazauskas' HPP, and disassembly of the chimneys in Elektrenai Complex have been actively carried out, including the initiation of the public procurement procedures necessary for further implementation of these projects. I strongly believe these large-scale innovations will soon become reality, thus allowing Ignitis Gamyba to push the boundaries of innovative solutions provided by the state-owned enterprises on both the national and regional level.

The Company's adjusted EBITDA increased despite lower production volumes at Kaunas A. Brazauskas' HPP in January–September 2019, in comparison with the same period in 2018. Adjusted EBITDA growth has been driven by

the higher gross profit and increased generation margin of Kruonis PSHP, positive results of stocked fuel-oil sales and higher volumes of regulated services provided in Elektrėnai complex.

Operating income from the regulated services of the Company in January–September 2019, i. e. electricity and heat energy generation in the Elektrėnai Complex, and power reserve services provided by the Elektrėnai Complex and the Kruonis PSHP accounted for 47% of the total revenue of the Company (55% in January–September 2018).

Expenses

In January–September 2019, the Company incurred the costs of EUR 70.9 million (EUR 70.3 million, if we exclude the Emission Trading Systems reappraisal income/costs). The major part of the Company's costs (EUR 40.0 million or 56.9%) was related to the purchase of electricity and related services, as well as the purchase of fuel for electricity generation.

Overview of the activities of the Company's power plants and plans for 2019

The Company brings together the largest state-owned electricity generation facilities, namely, the reserve power plant and the combined cycle unit in Elektrénai Complex, Kruonis Pumped Storage Hydroelectric Plant (Kruonis PSHP), Kaunas Algirdas Brazauskas Hydroelectric Power Plant (Kaunas HPP) and Vilnius Third Combined Heat and Power Plant (Vilnius PP-3), which was taken over from Lietuvos Energija UAB (as of today – Ignitis Group) on 31 March 2018. The Company's main objective is to contribute to ensuring the country's energy security by consolidating electricity generation capacity.

The biofuel boiler house built in the Elektrénai Complex enables the Company to produce heat energy to satisfy the needs of Elektrénai town and Kietaviškės greenhouses, and the needs of its own.

As from 1 January 2016, trade in electricity produced by the Company has been conducted under the agreement by Energijos Tiekimas UAB (since 1 January 2019 the operations were disposed to Gamybos Optimizavimas UAB). Before that date, the Company used to conduct trading on the wholesale electricity market (i.e. the environment of communication between the producers and suppliers of electricity) on its own.

The Company provides balancing services, as well as system services to the Lithuanian transmission system operator LTGRID AB (the TSO).

In 2019, the tertiary reserve in the scope of 260 MW is guaranteed by the CCU, whereas the strategic reserve service has been halted. Therefore, the decision was made to conserve the unit 8 of

Elektrénai Complex as from the beginning of 2019 (the unit 7 has been conserved since 1 January 2018). In 2019, periodical short-term technological tests of equipment are planned in the Elektrénai Complex.

This year, Kruonis PSHP is providing 400 MW secondary reserve service (by means of two units). The profitability of the commercial activities by means of the two remaining units and the production volumes depend mostly on the market conditions. i.e. difference in the prices of electricity in peak and nonpeak periods.

In 2019, the production volumes of Kaunas A. Brazauskas HPP will depend mostly on the inflow of Nemunas. The power plant is affected a lot by seasonality, i.e. the major part of electricity is produced at times of spring flood, whereas the smallest part of electricity is produced in cold winter and hot summer. The efforts will be put to make use of the flexible production in the power plant during those hours when the highest price is reached in the exchange.

It is not planned to produce energy in Vilnius TPP-3 in 2019.

The Company sets availability goals for the power plants. The devices are considered accessible when they are producing electricity or when they are completely ready to produce it. It is planned that the average annual availability indicators in 2019 will be at least 97.8% for the CCU, 90.2% for Kruonis PSHP, and 92.5% for Kaunas A. Brazauskas HPP.

The efforts will also be put for the power plants to participate reliably in isolated network tests according to the TSO's pre-scheduled testing programme.

Key performance indicators

Electricity generation and ancillary services' indicators for January-September 2019

From January to September of 2019, the Company produced electricity and heat energy, provided tertiary active power reserve service in the Elektrénai complex, secondary active power reserve service in Kruonis PSHP, and other ancillary services.

The Company has permissions of unlimited duration to produce electricity. The amount of electricity produced in the Company's power plants during January–September 2019 differs insignificantly from that of January–September 2018 (see Figure 2). In total, 0.67 TWh of electricity was sold in the NordPool exchange in January–September 2019, a 6.9% decrease if compared to January–September 2018 (0.72 TWh).

In Kaunas HPP, the production volumes have been affected by the drought which started already in spring. The snow has been scarce, melted gradually and did not cause bigger floods. During summer months, the situation deteriorated – a hydrological drought has been announced in Lithuania. During January–September 2019, Kaunas HPP produced 24.7% less electricity if compared to the same period last year (0.28 TWh in January–September 2018 and 0.21 TWh in January–September 2019).

Efficient use of Kruonis PSHP potential for stabilizing electricity prices in the market (due to increased difference between daily peak and night-time electricity prices) resulted in 27.2% higher sales of the electricity produced in Kruonis PSHP during January–September 2019 when compared to the same period last year (0.42 TWh in 2019 and 0.33 TWh in 2018).

In January–September 2019, the Company sold 0.044 TWh and purchased 0.016 TWh of regulation electricity (the service necessary to balance the surplus/shortage of electricity in the

system). The respective amounts for January–September 2018 had been 0.059 TWh and 0.028 TWh.

Another ancillary service provided by Kruonis PSHP is the secondary power reserve, i.e. the power of facilities or hydro-units maintained by the producer activated in 15 minutes. During January–September 2019, 0.010 TWh of electricity has been produced during the activations of this service (0.013 TWh in January–September 2018). The TSO usually activates the secondary power reserve (for which two units (400 MW) of Kruonis PSHP are assigned in 2019) when there is a need to compensate a sudden drop in electricity transmitted to Lithuania. During January–September 2019, the Company sold around 2.62 TWh of the secondary power reserve – the same amount as during January–September 2018.

As in 2018, production in Elektrénai Complex remained limited during January–September 2019 (0.018 TWh produced in January–September 2019 and 0.066 TWh in January–September 2018). In 2019, the tertiary power reserve in the scope of 260 MW is ensured by the most effective unit of Elektrénai Complex – combined cycle unit. The tertiary active power reserve is the power of power-generating sources maintained by the producer, which is activated within 12 hours. The reserve could be activated by the TSO. The unit is constantly ready to produce electricity in order to contribute ensuring the security of the energy system. The production of the combined cycle unit on a commercial basis is only available with the residual power (the power remaining from designated for the service of tertiary reserve). The residual power is highly impacted by the weather temperature – the lower the temperatures, the more power CCU can supply to the grid. However, the residual power cannot be lower than the

All amounts in thousands of euros unless otherwise stated

technological unit minimum (160 MW). If the weather warms up, the unit's residual power becomes lower than the technological minimum making it impossible for the CCU to work on a

commercial basis. During January–September 2019, the Company sold around 1.71 TWh of the tertiary power reserve – slightly more than during the same period in 2018 (1.70 TWh).

Other factors affecting the Company's financial indicators

The Company's business environment was discussed in the interim report of the 6 months 2019. No changes took place in the Company's business environment in January–September 2019 that would have had a significant influence on the Company's results.

The banks operating in Lithuania continue forecasting reasonable growth of gross domestic product, the changes of which have the major impact on increased demand for energy and competitive environment in which the Company is operating.

The average price of electricity in the Lithuanian trade zone of Nord Pool market for January–September 2019 changed only marginally compared to the same period last year. In January–September 2019, the average price amounted to 46.98 euro per MWh compared to 48.31 euro per MWh in January–September 2018.

The price of emission allowances in January–September 2019 remained higher than in the same period last year (24.72 euro per unit in September 2019 vs. 21.15 euro per unit in September 2018), which had a positive effect on the Company's results.

The Company is operating in accordance with the Company's Strategy revised and updated in the end of 2018. It is stressed in the Strategy that the most important activities of the Company are strategic generation as a basis for achievement of growth purposes of the entire group of the Lithuanian Energy. The main objective set for the Company is to contribute to successful synchronization of the Baltic States with the system of networks of continental Europe and to maintain capacities of reliable local electricity production and to develop new capacities in Lithuania. It is also provided in the Strategy that while implementing its main role to safeguard reliable and effective strategic generation, the Company will contribute significantly to implementation of the strategy LE 2030 in the direction of green generation and through implementing of innovations. 10 strategic solutions are planned in the Company's Strategy – particular projects and performance areas planned for the period 2019–2030. The document of the Company's Strategy for 2019–2030 is available on the Company's website.

In January–March 2019, the Company continued implementation of the majority of the projects and innovations described in the annual report of 2018 (link, p. 24) according to the plans. In implementing the decision to cease using low-quality fuel oil as a reserve fuel for the plants in Elektrėnai Complex, the last fuel-oil supplies were moved out of Elektrėnai Complex in March 2019. The remaining infrastructure for fuel-oil storage and supply to the reserve power plant is planned to be prepared so that it can be

offered as needed to clients whose operations would create value for the entire region. During January–September 2019, the dismantling of units 5 and 6 of the reserve power plant of Elektrėnai Complex continued. Also, preparatory work for the installation of the experimental solar power plant in Kruonis PSHP, installation of the energy storage device in Kaunas Algirdas Brazauskas' HPP, and disassembly of the chimneys in Elektrėnai Complex were made, as well as the public procurement procedures necessary for further implementation of these projects were initiated. In the beginning of October, Ignitis Garnyba successfully launched its first 1 MW community solar power plant project in the platform Ignitis Saules Parkai.

On 1 September 2019, a study of the pile field and infrastructure was completed that had been partially funded by the European Commission (EC) under the Connecting Europe Facility. The study included the examination of the integrity and depth of the piles on which the pipeline connecting the upper and lower reservoirs would be built, examination of the strength of the concrete used for the piles and building structures, as well as geological surveys and determination of mechanical properties of soil. The study showed that the geological properties of the pipeline pile field area of unit 5 of Kruonis PSHP do not significantly differ from the design properties, and the strength of the concrete also matches the design values. Furthermore, a bigger financial support was received under the Connecting Europe Facility the for technological and socioeconomic studies of unit 5 of Kruonis PSHP. The completion of these studies is scheduled for the beginning of 2020.

In 2019, the risk factors related to Market Developments and Competitiveness and Regulation and Compliance have manifested in the following cases:

  • Provision of the strategic reserve service has been halted since the start of 2019. It is highly likely there will not be any demand for this type of reserve service until the creation of the new power market mechanisms.
  • The European Commission has launched an investigation to assess if the EU State aid rules were followed when using a strategic reserve instrument which allocates proceeds of public interest services (hereinafter, SPI) to the Company. The Company is actively participating in the process and providing all the necessary information.

In January–September 2019, there were no other manifestations of any significant risks to the Company described in detail in the annual report of 2018 (link, p. 26).

2 Accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation of the condensed interim financial information

The Company's condensed interim financial information for the six-month period ended 30 September 2019 has been prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial reporting (International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, 'Interim financial reporting').

This condensed interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.

The Company's financial year coincides with the calendar year.

2.2 Accounting policy

Accounting policies applied in the preparation of the condensed interim financial information are consistent with those that were applied in the preparation of the annual financial statements for 2018, except for the effect of other new standards presented below.

Income tax in the interim period is calculated using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual profit.

a) New or amended standards and interpretations

During the reporting six-month period ended 30 September 2019, the Company has applied IFRS 16 Leases for the first time, which had significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

IFRS 16, Leases (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019). The new standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. All leases result in the lessee obtaining the right to use an asset at the start of the lease and, if lease payments are made over time, also obtaining financing. Accordingly, IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or financial leases as is required by IAS 17 and, instead, introduces a single lessee accounting model. Lessees recognise: (a) assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value; and (b) depreciation of lease assets separately from interest on lease liabilities in the income statement. IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or financial leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently. The value of assets being transferred under the lease agreement and related lease liabilities must be stated in the Company's Statement of Financial Position.

Elected practical expedients on transition where the Company is a lessee

Where the Company is a lessee the following practical expedients are applied on transition on a lease-by-lease basis. The Company:

  1. applies a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics (such as leases with similar maturity, class of leased asset and economic environment);
  2. does apply transitional period adjustments to leases of low value (less than or equal to EUR 4,000).
  3. excludes initial direct costs from leases which previously were classified as operating leases by applying the standard at the commencement date to determine the value of the right-of-use assets;
  4. uses prior period information, for example, in determining the lease term if the contract provides an option to extend or terminate the lease. Consistently with the IAS 8, prior period information is used only for accounting estimates and judgments and is therefore not applicable to areas such as changes in indices or rates.

IFRS 16 does not specify how a lessee should distinguish and allocate the lease and non-lease components in the contract during the transitional period when the retrospective method is applied. The Company has chosen to apply a practical measure by accounting for each lease component and any related non-lease component as a single lease component consistently with accounting policy of the Company.

  • IFRS 9: Prepayment features with negative compensation (Amendment)

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. Management assessed that adoption of new standard amendment for the first time had no significant effect on financial statements of the Company.

  • IAS 28: Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures (Amendments)

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. Management assessed that adoption of new standard amendment for the first time had no significant effect on financial statements of the Company.

  • IFRIC INTERPRETATION 23: Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments

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. Management has assessed that adoption of interpretation for the first time had no significant effect on financial statements of the Company.

  • IAS 19: Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement (Amendments)

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. Management assessed that adoption of new standard amendment for the first time had no significant effect on financial statements of the Company.

The IASB has issued the Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2015 – 2017 Cycle, which is a collection of amendments to IFRSs.

  • 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.

Management assessed that adoption of improvements for the first time had no significant effect on financial statements of the Company.

c) 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. Management has assessed that adoption of new standard will have no significant effect on financial statements of the Company.

  • Conceptual Framework in IFRS standards

The 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. At the moment Management is assessing the effect of new standard amendment on financial statements of the Company.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

All amounts are presented in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated

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. At the moment Management is assessing the effect of new standard amendment on financial statements of the Company.

The management of the Company does not believe that other new and amended standards and their interpretations which the Company is required to apply from 1 January 2019 will have a material effect on financial statements of the Company.

2.3 Right-of-use assets

Right-of-use asset is an asset that shows the Company's right to use the leased asset within the lease period. Since 1 January 2019, the Company recognises right-of-use assets for all leases, including the subleases of right-of-use assets, except for leases of intangible assets, short-term leases and low-value leases.

Initial measurement of right-of-use assets

At the commencement date, a lessee measures the right-of-use asset at cost. The cost of the right-of-use asset shall comprise of the following: the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee and an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease, unless those costs are incurred to produce inventories. The Company incurs the obligation for those costs either at the commencement date or as a consequence of having used the underlying asset during a particular period. The Company recognises such costs as part of the cost of the right-of-use asset when it incurs an obligation for those costs.

Subsequent measurement of right-of-use assets

After the commencement date, the Company measures the right-of-use asset applying a cost model. Applying the cost model, the Company measures the right-of-use asset at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability.

The Company applies the depreciation requirements in IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment in calculating the depreciation of the right-of-use asset.

If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Company by the end of the lease term or if the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Company will exercise a purchase option, the Company calculates the depreciation of the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise, the Company calculates the depreciation of the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term.

The Company presents right-of-use assets in the statement of financial position separately from intangible assets and property, plant and equipment.

2.4 Lease liabilities

Initial measurement of lease liabilities

At the commencement date, the Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the lessee's incremental borrowing rate.

At the commencement date, the lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following payments for the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term that are not paid at the commencement date: fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date, amounts expected to be payable by the Company under residual value guarantees, the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease. Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate include, for example, payments linked to a consumer price index, payments linked to a benchmark interest rate (such as LIBOR) or payments that vary to reflect changes in market rental rates.

Subsequent measurement of lease liabilities

After the commencement date, the Company measures the lease liability by: increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made, and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications, or to reflect revised in-substance fixed lease payments.

Interest on the lease liability in each period during the lease term is the amount that produces a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the lease liability. The periodic rate of interest is the discount rate, or if applicable the revised discount rate.

After the commencement date, the Company recognises in profit or loss unless the costs are included in the carrying amount of another asset applying other applicable standards, both: interest on the lease liability and variable lease payments not included in the measurement of the lease liability in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

All amounts are presented in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated

Reassessment of lease liabilities

After the commencement date, the Company remeasures the lease liability to reflect changes to the lease payments. The Company recognises the amount of the remeasurement of the lease liability as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the Company recognises any remaining amount of the remeasurement in profit or loss.

Revised discount rate

The Company remeasures the lease liability by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate if there is a change in the lease term. The Company determines the revised lease payments based on the revised lease term, or if there is a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset, assessed considering the events and circumstances in the context of a purchase option. The Company determines the revised lease payments to reflect the change in amounts payable under the purchase option.

If the lease terms have changed or if the assessment of an option to purchase an asset changes, the Company determines the revised discount rate as the interest rate implicit in the lease for the remainder of the lease term, if that rate can be readily determined, or the lessee's incremental borrowing rate at the date of reassessment, if the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined.

Unchanged discount rate

The Company remeasures the lease liability by discounting the revised lease payments, if either:

  • there is a change in the amounts expected to be payable by the Company under a residual value guarantee. The Company determines the revised lease payments to reflect the change in amounts expected to be payable under the residual value guarantee.

  • there is a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, including, for example, a change to reflect changes in market rental rates following a market rent review. The Company remeasures the lease liability to reflect those revised lease payments only when there is a change in the cash flows (i.e. when the adjustment to the lease payments takes effect).

The Company determines the revised lease payments for the remainder of the lease term based on the revised contractual payments.

In discounting the revised lease payments, the Company uses an unchanged discount rate, unless the change in lease payments results from a change in variable interest rates. In that case, the Company uses a revised discount rate that reflects changes in the interest rate.

Lease modifications

The Company accounts for a lease modification as a separate lease if both:

  • the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more underlying assets; and
  • the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone price for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone price to reflect the circumstances of the particular contract.

For a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease, at the effective date of the lease modification, the Company does the following:

  • allocates the consideration in the modified contract;
  • determines the lease term of the modified lease; and
  • remeasures the lease liability by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate.

For a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease, the Company accounts for the remeasurement of the lease liability by:

  • decreasing the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease for lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease. The Company recognises in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of the lease;
  • making a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset for all other lease modifications.

The Company presents lease liabilities separately from other liabilities in the statement of financial position. Interest expenses of a lease liability is presented separately from the depreciation of right-of-use assets. Interest expenses of a lease liability are a component of financial costs, presented in the statement of comprehensive income.

3 Significant accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the condensed interim financial information in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and costs and disclosure of contingencies. Future events may cause the assumptions used in arriving at the estimates to change. The effect of any changes in estimates will be recorded in the financial statements when determinable. The significant management judgements (except those disclosed in Note 4) regarding the application of the accounting policies and the main sources of uncertainties in the preparation of this condensed interim financial information are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018.

Impairment of property, plant and equipment

At least once a year the Company assesses whether there are any indications that the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment has been impaired.

At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and other non-current assets to determine whether there are any indications that those assets have impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company makes an estimate of the recoverable amount of such property, plant and equipment and non-current assets to assess impairment (if any). When the recoverable amount of the asset cannot be calculated, the Company calculates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

As at 30 September 2019, the Company's management assessed the external factors (changes in economic and regulatory environment, market composition, interest rates, etc.) and the internal factors (changes in purpose of use and useful life of assets, cash flow generation capacity of assets, etc.) that might impact the value of non-current assets. No impairment indications were identified for property, plant and equipment carried at cost, its recoverable amount exceeded its carrying amount, less grants.

As at 31 December 2017, the Company's management assessed the external factors (changes in economic and regulatory environment, market composition, interest rates, etc.) and the internal factors (changes in purpose of use and useful life of assets, cash flow generation capacity of assets, etc.) that might impact the value of non-current assets, and recognised EUR 31,384 thousand of impairment losses for energy units No 7 and 8 of Elektrenai Complex, EUR 757 thousand of impairment losses for two fuel oil reservoirs, and EUR 339 thousand of impairment losses for a tank. No impairment indications were identified for the remaining property, plant and equipment or, upon the impairment test, it was determined that the recoverable amount exceeded its carrying amount, less grants.

The same impairment test carried out in relation to this property, plant, and equipment on 31 December 2018 also revealed no indications of impairment.

Provisions

As emissions are made, a liability is recognised for the obligation to deliver allowances equal to emissions that have been made. This liability is a provision that is within the scope of IAS 37. It is measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date. This is the present market price multiplied by the number of allowances required to cover emissions made up to the balance sheet date. The quantity of actual emissions is approved by a responsible state authority during four months after the end of the year. The provision accounted for as at 31 December 2018 was consistent with the actual quantities of emissions. Based on the historic experience, the Company's management does not expect any significant differences to arise between the estimated provision at 30 September 2019 and the quantity of emissions rights which will be approved in 2020.

As at 31 December 2018, a provision was recognised for the takedown of units 5 and 6 of Lithuania Power Plant and dismantling of related chimneys. The root cause of necessity to perform the above mentioned dismantling is health and safety. The Company publicly announced the intention to perform works, currently a public call for tender was launched. Because of reasons mentioned the management assessed that the Company has a constructive obligation, thus respectively provision was recognized in accordance to IAS 37 Provision, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. As at 30 September 2019 the total amount of provision amounted to EUR 2,809 thousand, out of which non-current liabilities make up EUR 2,322 thousand and current liabilities make up EUR 487 thousand (as at 31 December 2018 provision amounted respectively to EUR 723 thousand and EUR 850 thousand). (See Note 17).

At each reporting date, the Company assesses the provision for the takedown of units 5 and 6 and the chimneys, considering the actual expenses of takedown of units 5 and 6 and chimneys no.1 and 2 and received income from disposal of scrap.

Accrual of public service obligation (hereinafter 'PSO') services

The Company provided PSO until 31 December 2018. Fees received for PSO were allocated for the maintenance of the infrastructure of the Elektrėnai Complex, for covering the expenses related to the testing of the necessary electricity generation facilities and for covering relatively stable expenses of facilities. Infrastructure maintenance costs cover fuel, emission allowance and other production costs that are incurred in the course of generation of heat which is necessary to support infrastructure, as well in the course of generation electricity which is consumed by the Elektrėnai Complex, and gas consumption capacity taxes.

Allocated amount of PSO funds and the price for capacity reserve services are determined for the next calendar year by the National energy regulatory council (NERC) in view of the projected costs of the Company. The Management has assessed that the Company has a legal obligation to receive or pay outstanding amount in accordance with applicable regulations related to PSO funds.

As at 30 September 2019, the Company recognised PSO funds of EUR 1,219 thousand (as at 31 December 2018, EUR 4,875 thousand) within 'Provisions' as non-current liability to be refunded after 12 calendar months. PSO funds to be refunded arose from lower than established actual fixed and variable costs incurred in the provision of the regulated services. As at 31 December 2018, non-current amount payable was carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate approach. When discounting the payable PSO funds during the period of refunding, a discount

All amounts are presented in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated

rate of 0.92% was used, and discounting effect, which is not included in above mentioned amounts, of EUR 86 thousand as at 31 December 2018 was recognised within 'Other financial income'. Discounting effect was not restated as at 30 September 2019 as the effect of change was immaterial. As at 30 September 2019, a payable amount of EUR 4,349 thousand (as at 31 December 2018, EUR 2,765 thousand), which will be compensated within next 12 calendar months, was recognised within 'Provisions' as other current PSO payables.

Regulated activity

National Energy Regulatory Council (NERC) regulates the Company's level of profitability by approving the prices of services for the next year. The level of prices depends on expected costs of the next year, expected volume of services provided, the variance between profit earned during the prior periods and the regulated amount of profit and other matters.

Actual costs incurred by the Company during the year may differ from budgeted costs at the time of the approval of prices and the actual volume of services may differ from the expected volume. As a result, the Company's actual profit may deviate from the regulated level and the difference will affect the prices of future services.

The Company does not recognise regulatory assets or liabilities that would be used to adjust the current year profit in order to arrive at the regulated level of profit, if this difference is recovered / returned only in the course of service provision in the future, based on the applicable legislation (see Note 4).

Legal disputes over the Commission's decisions related to regulated revenue

In 2014, the Commission adopted a resolution, by which the Company was declared as an undertaking with significant power in the electricity generation market. Based on this resolution, earnings from sale of electricity generated at the Company's hydroelectric plants were subject to restriction by deducting the respective amount from the PSO funds approved for the Company. On 17 October 2016, the Supreme Administrative Court of Lithuania announced its judgement based on which the aforementioned resolution of the Commission was reversed. The amount of the contingent asset of the Company, related to the legal dispute on the resolution of the decision of the Commission of the year 2014, which declared the Company as an undertaking with significant power in the electricity generation market and therefore additionally decreased the PSO by EUR 2,51 million, as at 30 September 2019 amounted to EUR 2,51 million (this contingent asset is not recognized in the financial statements) and has not changed since 31 December 2018

4 Correction of error

When preparing these interim financial statements the Company has performed the following prior periods correction of errors:

1) In 2019, the Company reviewed financial statements accounting principles for revenues, receivables, and payables related to secondary active power reserve, tertiary power reserve, accident prevention and mitigation, and power handling services (hereinafter – regulatory activities), which are regulated by the National Energy Regulatory Council (NERC). Tariffs for these regulatory activities for the next financial year are set by NERC based on the Company's expenses forecasted for the next financial year, taking into account planned and factual revenue and expense differences in the prior financial year period.

Up until 31 December 2018, the Company reported regulatory activities revenues in the financial statements using the accrual principle based on factual expenses incurred, i.e. regulatory activities revenues were recognized by the Company in such amount, which, under NERC revenue calculation methodology, are permissible to take into consideration, by also taking into account permissible return on investment and factual expenses incurred for services provided during the previous financial year. Difference between forecasted amount set by NERC for the current financial period and factual revenue and expenses incurred was recognized as either a regulatory payable or receivable by the Company. As at 31 December 2018, Company recognized payable of EUR 4,598 thousand in the 'Other non-current payables and liabilities', and EUR 2,794 thousand in short-term 'Contract liabilities' captions of the statement of financial position captions corresponding to regulated services activity. Respectively, at 31 December 2017, Co. recognized EUR 289 thousand receivable in 'Other financial assets' caption, and EUR 511 thousand payable in 'Other non-current payables and liabilities' statement of financial position caption.

It should be noted, that up until now there is no clear regulation under current legislation if and how the Company should meet its obligation regarding settlement of the payable amount, or how the receivable allocated to the Company should be paid in case regulated activity services mentioned above were no longer being provided. When preparing financial statements for year ending at 31 December 2018, the Company's management upheld a conservative approach principle and in the statement of financial position recognized a liability composed of 2017-2018 variance between planned and factual amounts. Company's management presumed that in the event when regulated activity services would not be provided, it would be probable that current legislation amendments would be made, clarifying how Company should fulfil its obligation.

In 2019, based on Independent Auditor recommendations, the Company's management performed a re-assessment of analysis of laws, regulations and applicable international financial reporting standards, in relation to regulated services. According to the fact that the current legislature does not provide guidance on if and how the Company should repay or receive the differences between projected and actual revenues and expenses for regulated services formed in prior periods, in case these services were no longer being provided, there is no basis to account such differences as either an asset or a liability in the statement of financial position. Such treatment would also not be applicable according to the conceptual system of financial reporting and IAS 37 'Provisions, Contingent Assets and Contingent Liabilities'. Due to these reasons, the correction of error of respective articles of financial statements was performed, by including the effect on income tax.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

All amounts are presented in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated

According to the Company's evaluation, during the 9-month period, ended on 30 September 2019, the actual expenses for regulated services were less than what NERC had projected for the same period by EUR 6,041 thousand amount, which was recognized as part current year Revenue from contracts with customers. Total amount of difference from prior periods as at 30 September 2019, was EUR 13,433 thousand (31 December 2019 – EUR 7,392 thousand), which the Company would have to repay if the respective NERC decisions were made. This amount is disclosed as contingent liability in Note 25.

2) As at 31 December 2018, the Company did not reclass part of 'Other non-current parables and liabilities' and 'Prepayments received', which, according to their nature should be classified as provisions. Due to this the long-term caption 'Provisions' of the statement of financial position was increased by EUR 4,875 thousand. Short-term caption 'Provisions' of the statement of financial position was increased by EUR 2,765 thousand. In addition to that, captions 'Other non-current payables and liabilities' and 'Prepayments received were reduced by respective amounts.

Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities

Trade and other receivables, trade and other debts, non-current and current borrowings represent the major portion of the Company's financial assets and financial liabilities not carried at fair value. The fair value of the Company's financial assets and financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss is based on prices in the active market.

The fair value is defined as the amount at which an asset or services could be exchanged or at which a mutual liability could be set off between knowledgeable parties in an arm's length transaction willing to buy (sell) an asset or to set off a mutual liability. The fair value is determined based on quoted market prices, discounted cash flow models and option pricing models as appropriate.

The following methods and assumptions are used to determine the fair value of each class of financial assets and liabilities:

  • The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, current trade and other receivables, short-term loans granted, current trade and other payables and current borrowings approximates their fair value;
  • The fair value of non-current borrowings is based on the quoted market price for the same or similar loan or on the current rates available for loan with the same maturity profile. As at 30 September 2019, the Company had non-current borrowings from Luminor and SEB Bank bearing variable interest rates. The fair value of non-current borrowings bearing variable interest rate approximates their carrying amount, provided that the margin on such loans corresponds to margins currently prevailing in the market.
  • The fair value of non-current receivables and payables is determined with reference to the current interest rates available for the loans with the same maturity profile. As at 30 September 2019, the discount rate applied to the Company's non-current receivables and payables approximated the market interest rate.

Fair value of emission allowance is determined based on prevailing prices in active market therefore it is assigned to the first hierarchy level of fair value estimation model. Subsequent to initial emission allowance recognition (for acquired and granted to the Company) it is remeasured to fair value based on prices in active market at the end of each reporting period. At moment of revaluation part of revaluated emission allowance, exceeding acquisition cost, is accounted for revaluation reserve in equity while decrease in value, exceeding previously accumulated revaluation reserve in equity, is accounted through statement of comprehensive income. The Company accounts purchased and received for free emission allowance separately. Upon realization of emission allowance, positive balance of revaluation reserve in equity is directly recognized in retained earnings.

25 Commitments and contingencies

Based on a press release of the European Commission, the Company informs that on 3 September 2019, the European Commission has launched an investigation to assess, if EU State aid rules were followed when using a strategic reserve instrument which allocates proceeds of public interest services to the Company (PIS). The Company's management is not aware of any circumstances that could determine probable significant liabilities of the Company due to the launched investigation.

Obligations of regulated services

In 2019 the Company revised the recognition principles of revenue, accounts receivable and liabilities related to secondary emergency power reserve, tertiary active power reserve, prevention and liquidation of accidents and disruptions, reactive power and voltage management services (hereinafter - regulated services), which prices are regulated by VERT, in the financial statements (See Note 3). The prices of the aforementioned regulated services for the upcoming calendar (financial) year are determined by the VERT based on the forecasted costs of the Company for the next financial year, taking into account the discrepancies between forecasted and actual revenues and expenses for the previous financial year.

It should be noted that there are no legal provisions in the existing legislation which would determine how the Company should meet its obligation raised from coverage of amount payable or how the Company should be reimbursed in the event when the same regulated services were no longer provided in the following financial year. Based on management's assessment, if the same regulated services cease to be provided in the coming periods, it is likely that legislative changes would be made that would determine a requirement to reimburse such obligation and would determine the principles based on which the Company should meet such obligation.

The Company estimates that the resulting difference between the actual costs of provided regulated services provided in prior year and the costs estimated by VERT based on which prices of regulated services were calculated, raised regulatory obligation which as at 30 September 2019 amounted to EUR 13,433 thousand (31 December 2018 - EUR 7,392 thousand) and which should be paid by the Company if VERT issues respective rulings.

Guarantees issued and received

From January to September of 2019, the Company did not sign any new guarantee agreements.

As at 30 September 2019, no guarantees were received by the Company from other entities.

Litigations

The dispute over resolutions adopted by the National Energy Regulatory Council (NERC) related to the revenue from the regulated activities is disclosed in Note 3.

The plaintiff JUMPS, UAB on 16 September 2019 applied to the court of first instance with a purpose to get court approval that according to sales agreement with the Company the plaintiff cannot be charged full forfeitures or forfeitures size should be decreased. Claim size - EUR 392,854.30. According to the Company, the claim is not reasonable and forfeitures are applied properly based on agreement signed with the plaintiff. Received amount is recognized as other income in statement of comprehensive income.

Tax audits

The tax authorities may at any time inspect the books and records within 5 years subsequent to the reported tax year, and may impose additional tax assessments and penalties. The Company's management is not aware of any circumstances which may give rise to a potential material liability in this respect.

26 Subsequent events

As at 27 August 2019 The Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company decided to change the name of Lietuvos energijos gamyba, AB to AB Ignitis gamyba.

Based on ruling of 23 August 2019 (hereinafter - ruling) issued by district court of Klaipeda, Geoterma, UAB was declared as bankrupted and liquidated due to bankruptcy. The ruling became effective as at 3 September 2019. Based on ruling of 17 May 2019 district court of Klaipeda approved financial claim of creditors of Geoterma, also based on this ruling financial claim of EUR 124,749.79 was approved in favour of the mortgage creditor AB Ignitis gamyba.

There were no other significant events after 30 September 2019 until the date of approval of the financial statements.
