First half of 2020 was a challenging time for all businesses, including Ignitis Group. We faced challenges related to the coronavirus pandemic and quarantine. It affected everyone, so Ignitis Group took the necessary steps to ensure the safety of our employees, business continuation, and the provision of support to our financially affected customers.
This extraordinary situation proved that, during times of uncertainty, the help of a dedicated and professional team is of vital importance. It is fair to say now that we managed the situation well and at the same time made big steps towards the implementation of long-term goals of Ignitis Group.
In first half of 2020, Ignitis Gamyba in Lithuania installed 1 MW solar power plant and continues developing it. The solar power plant, which will be of 4 MW capacity in total, will be the biggest in the Baltic States. The construction works of an onshore 94 MW windfarm in Pomerania, Poland, were continued successfully: almost half of planned 29 turbines are already erected. At the same time, we were also preparing for the implementation of 63 MW windfarm in Mažeikiai, Lithuania -the works will start in Q3 2020.
These are just a few examples of our projects, which we implement driven by our mission. Creating an Energy Smart world and committing to a more sustainable future remains core to all our activities.
Our strategy update, released in June 2020, follows the expectations from the Group's shareholder for the consistent and sustainable growth of Ignitis Group through the modernisation of its energy infrastructure and the further development of its green power generation portfolio.
The Strategy is aligned with the targets of Lithuania's National Energy Independence Strategy. This includes the adoption of smart metering, innovative technologies and the digitisation of the Lithuanian energy sector, as well as the development of additional green energy generation capacity (including offshore in the Baltic sea) and synchronization with continental European energy grids.
Active development of green generation remains key priority of sustainable development for the Group. Ignitis Group targets 4 GW of installed green generation capacity by 2030 while creating value for shareholders. The Group is also looking to maintain leadership in its home markets -the Baltic countries, Poland and Finland - and will explore new opportunities in countries which are in the energy transition path.
In first half 2020, we continued transforming our company to create the leading green energy business in the region and create a more sustainable world.

Until the start of COVID-19 pandemic it was forecasted that the growth of Lithuania's gross domestic product (GDP), which lasted for several years will continue. However, after announcement of quarantine, the situation changed dramatically. Bank of Lithuania in its forecast published in June 2020, announced the expected GDP decrease of the Lithuanian economy by 9.7% in 2020, and recover by 8.3% in 2021.
The Group has a COVID-19 situation management team that constantly monitors the situation and analyzes the latest information, as well as changes in external factors and their impact on the Group and makes additional decisions to ensure the health and safety of employees, customers, suppliers, visitors of the Group companies and business continuity. Customer service centers were closed during quarantine and customers were served remotely. During the quarantine, customers were given the opportunity to pay for utilities in the Ignitis self-service system free of charge. The employees of the Group, who can perform their functions remotely, work from home, others are provided with additional personal protection and personal hygiene measures, unnecessary contacts with other persons are restricted. The Group companies have developed and are implementing actions to ensure the rotation of employees and business continuity in order to ensure, first of all, the health and safety of employees, the continuity of electricity generation, ensuring the stability of the energy system, electricity and gas distribution and supply activities. The main factors affecting the Group's operations due to the situation described above in relation to COVID-19 are set out in the interim financial statements.
In Q2 2020, prices fell remarkably in all the bidding areas of the Nord Pool Nordic power exchange. Compared to the Q2 2019, the average system price was lower by approx. 84% (Q2 2019 – 35.60 Eur/MWh, Q2 2020– 5.61 Eur/MWh), in the fourth price area of
Sweden, with which Lithuania is connected through the NordBalt power link – approx. 50% (Q2 2019– 34.57 Eur/MWh, Q2 2020 – 17.29 Eur/MWh), in Finland – approx. 40% (Q2 2019 – 37,36 Eur/MWh, Q2 2020 – 22.48 Eur/MWh), in Baltic region – approx. 34% (Q2 2019 – 43.6 Eur/MWh, Q2 2020 – 28.81 Eur/MWh). As well, power prices fell in polish commodity exchange TGE – approx. 29% (Q2 2019 – 56.54 Eur/MWh, Q2 2020 – 45.23 Eur/MWh).
It is noteworthy that in Lithuania during certain periods prices were lower than in Latvia and Estonia, approx. 1.9% in Q2 2020. In Q2 2020, the average price difference between Lithuania and Sweden in the fourth zone was approx. 11.49 Eur/MWh (Q2 2019 – approx. 9.52 Eur/MWh).
In Q2 2020, compared to the same quarter 2019, total energy consumption in the price areas of Nord Pool power exchange decreased by approx. 0.8%, wind farm production increased by approx. 12.9% (in Lithuania – approx. 8.5%), hydroelectric power plant – approx. 17.4%, nuclear power plant production decreased by approx. 26.4%. Lower consumption and nuclear power production with increased hydroelectric power plant production have been affected by milder spring and COVID-19 in all price areas, in Q2 2020 average temperature was approx. 0.5 degrees lower compared to the same period 2019 and approx. 0.7 degrees higher than normal.
According to Nord Pool data electricity demand in Lithuania decreased approx. 8.63% compared to the same quarter 2019 – approx. 2.68 TWh (excl. Kruonis PSHP demand). In Latvia demand decreased by approx. 4.9%, totalled 1.63 TWh, in Estonia – approx. 3.7%, totalled 1.79 TWh. In Q2 2020 Lithuania produced approx. 35.2% more electricity than in Q2 2019, meanwhile Latvia – approx. 2.7% and Estonia – approx. 38.3% produced less. Lithuania remains an energy-deficit country, producing around 42% of the country's demand, in Latvia local production covers 80% of country's demand, Estonia remains an energy-deficit country too, producing around 46% of the country's demand. Based on ENTSO-e data during Q2 2020 demand in Poland decreased approx. 9.2% (36.7 TWh) compared to Q2 2019. Poland is still net power importer, because local production decreased by 12.3% totalling 30.3 TWh, which covered 82.7% of country's demand. In Q2 2020, compared to the same quarter 2019, wind farm and biomass production increased by approx. 4% (2.96 TWh) and 22% (0,53 TWh) respectively, while hydroelectric
power plant and fossil fuel production decreased –approx. 17% (0.62 TWh) and 14% (26.22 TWh) respectively.
In Q2 2020, commercial import from third countries decreased by approx. 2.6 times compared to Q2 2019 (from approx. 1.6TWh to approx. 0.6TWh), from Scandinavia and Poland increased approx. 33%. Significant increment of the import from Scandinavia has been affected by increased production of renewable energy sources, which formed lower prices in the region.
In Q2 2020, prices in the natural gas market have kept at the lowest levels in decade. Consumption fell sharply due to COVID-19, European gas storage year-on-year levels were at record high, many liquefied natural gas (LNG) vessels designated to Europe were cancelled, but flows of natural gas from Norway and Russia remained relatively high and oversupply persisted in Europe.
In May 2020, European spot and front month natural gas prices fell below US prices. Thus, with low demand around the world US LNG production facilities started shutting down to reduce surplus of LNG cargos. As a result, in a second half of Q2 2020 spot natural gas prices in Europe recovered a bit. As well, natural gas consumption in Asian market started to increase as quarantine restrictions were eased. This resulted in LNG vessel being redirected to Asia.
As at 30 June 2020, the European natural gas storage filling rate stood at 80%, which was 45% higher than average of last 5 years. At the same time storage filling rate in Latvia reached 69% and in Poland 57%, 120% and 21% respectively higher than average of last 5 years.
In Q2 2020, 5.8 TWh or 4% more natural gas was supplied from the Klaipėda LNG terminal to customers of Lithuania than in Q2 2019, while customers in Poland received 12.5 TWh or 22% more from Świnoujście LNG terminal comparing the same tenors. According to the data of the Lithuanian transmission system operator, the consumption of natural gas in the country was 16% higher than in Q2 2019 and reached 5.8 TWh. In 2020 interconnection between EE-FI started operation, in 2020 Q2 - 2.1TWh, amounting to 4.8TWh in H1 2020 have been supplied to Finland from Baltics.

Electricity generated, TWh
Distributed electricity in H1 2020 decreased by 2.5% and amounted to 4.69 TWh, compared to 4.81 TWh in H1 2019. Decrease was mainly influenced by COVID-19. Independent supply distribution during quarantine period decreased by about 8-9%, which was partly offset by an increase in public supply distribution during quarantine period by 5-6%.
Electricity generated increased 2 times in comparison to H1 2019 and amounted to 0.95 TWh in H1 2020. Increase was mainly driven by higher electricity generation in the CCGT at Elektrenai Complex and Kruonis PSHP. Electricity generation volumes in the CCGT at Elektrėnai Complex increased almost 67.4 times from 0.01 TWh in H1 2019 to 0.34 TWh, in H1 2020. This was the result of low gas and emission allowance prices and changes in the regulation of provided regulated services. Electricity generation volumes at Kruonis PSHP increased by 92.8% as a result of effective utilisation of fluctuations in electricity prices in H1 2020. Therefore, as a result of higher electricity generation in the CCGT at Elektrenai Complex the share of green electricity generated in H1 2020 decreased to 63.2% from 98.0% in H1 2019.
SAIDI ratio deteriorated and was 179.23 minutes (H1 2019: 51.26 minutes). SAIFI indicator was equal to 0.87 interruptions (H1 2019: 0.69 interruptions). Deterioration of quality indicators of continuous electricity supply was mainly caused by storm Laura (March 12-13).
During H1 2020, 8,502 new connection points and 10,194 upgrades were completed in the electricity distribution network. The number of new electricity connection points and upgrades decreased by 4.1% compared to H1 2019.
Gas distribution volume decreased by 5.6% and amounted to 3.59 TWh in H1 2020 (H1 2019: 3.80 TWh). In H1 2020, higher average air temperatures were the main contributor to the reduction in gas distribution. The volume of gas sold increased by 44.0% and amounted to 7.24 TWh in H1 2020 (H1 2019: 5.02 TWh). This was mainly influenced by entry into Finnish gas market and higher gas sales in Latvian market because of winning Latvenergo's tender for c. 0.9 TWh.
Gas distribution SAIDI ratio improved in H1 2020 and was 0.24 minutes (H1 2019: 0.68 minutes) and SAIFI ratio was equal to 0.003 interruptions (H1 2019: 0.005 interruptions). Improvement of the quality indicators resulted from the decrease in network disruptions by third parties.
In H1 2020, 4,030 new connection points and upgrades were completed in the gas distribution network, which is 31.1% less than during H1 2019 because quarters are no longer formed and the tariff per user became higher.
Heat generation in H1 2020 increased 2.4 times, compared to H1 2019, as a result of Kaunas CHP commissioning and test runs. The plant was commissioned in August.

In H1 2020 total operating expenses decreased by 2.8% compared to the same period last year, and totalled EUR 497.5 million.
The Group's purchases of electricity and gas amounted to EUR 360.7 million in H1 2020 and decreased by 5.2% compared to H1 2019. Decrease was caused by lower gas purchases for trade (EUR -22.1 million) due to lower gas market price.
In H1 2020 SG&A expense was equal to EUR 78.9 million and rose by 8.8% (EUR +6.4 million). This change was mainly driven by increase in Salaries and related expenses by EUR 7.8 million (or +18.6%) which increased mainly due to an increase of head count, the Group's average salary growth, increased vacation accrual and increased overtime resulted from repair of failures in the electricity distribution network after storm Laura in H1 2020. Also other SG&A expenses increased by EUR 2.7 million (or +17.6%) which increased mainly due to management and other fees of "Smart Energy Fund powered by Ignitis Group" for the years 2017-2020 which were capitalised in balance sheet and now transferred to expenses (EUR +0.7 million) and higher customer service expenses (EUR +1.2 million).
Impairment expenses and write-offs of property, plant and equipment decreased due to depreciation of assets that were reclassified as assets held for sale reclassification to impairment expenses of property, plant and equipment in H1 2019.
Write-offs and impairments of short term and long-term receivables, inventories and other increased due to increase of impairments of receivables in Networks segment due to COVID-19 in 2020 and impairment of receivables reversal in Flexible Generation segment in 2019.
Revaluation of emission allowances expenses decreased due to increased prices of emission allowances in June 30, 2020 compared to June 30, 2019.

(1) Elimination of the difference between the actual profit earned during the reporting period and profit allowed by the regulator. Decreased mainly due to higher Networks (EUR -20.7 million) and Customers and Solutions (EUR -45.1 million) segments profit earned from regulated activities during the reporting period than profit allowed by the regulator. Networks segment's temporary regulatory differences resulted from factual regulated operating expenses savings compared to regulated operating expenses level set by regulator. Customers and Solutions segment's temporary regulatory diffrences resulted from lower factual electricity and gas prices compared to prices set by regulator.
* A more detailed description of the management adjustments is presented in Consolidated Interim Financial statements for H1 2020, Note 22 "Operating segments".
** Calculation method of Networks segments Adjusted EBITDA was changed in H1 2020 and retrospectively Adjusted EBITDA H1 2019 was corrected. Change of calculation method affect only monthly amounts distribution. Adjusted EBITDA H1 2019 without this change would be EUR 4.2 million higher.
In H1 2020, Adjusted EBIT amounted to EUR 74.6 million, which was 1.2% (or EUR 0.9 million) lower than in H1 2019.

* A more detailed description presented in Consolidated Interim Financial statements for H1 2020, Note 9.

Bonds, which mature in 2027 (EUR 300.0 million, green), in 2028 (EUR 300.0 million, green) and in 2030 (EUR 300.0 million) make the largest portion of the Group's financial liabilities.
The average maturity of the borrowings as at 30 June 2020 was 9.5 years (31 December 2019: 6.3 years). Average maturity increased mainly due to overdraft refinanced using 10-year bonds.

On 30 June 2020, borrowings amounting to EUR 1,177.3 million were subject to the fixed interest rate (90.4% of the gross debt) and the remaining amount of borrowings was subject to the floating interest rate. 96.7% of gross debt were in EUR, while 3.3% – in PLN.
The Group manages liquidity risk by entering into the credit line agreements with banks. On 30 June 2020, credit line facilities amounted to EUR 270 million of which all are undrawn, EUR 30 million are frozen for redemption of shares of Ignitis Gamyba and ESO. All the credit lines are committed, i.e. funds must be paid by the bank upon request.
Net cash flows from operating activities (CFO) amounted to EUR 158.0 million in H1 2020. Compared to H1 2019, CFO increased by 57.1% (EUR +57.4 million) mainly due to increase of net profit. Net cash flows to investing activities (CFI) amounted to EUR 141.3 million in H1 2020. Compared to H1 2019, CFI decreased by EUR 26.0 million, from EUR 167.3 million to EUR 141.3 million due to lower Investments. Net cash flows from financing activities (CFF) amounted to EUR 134.8 million in H1 2020. Compared to H1 2019, CFF increased by EUR 33.6 million mostly due to bonds issuance used to refinance overdrafts.

Distributed electricity in H1 2020 amounted to 4.69 TWh and decreased by 2.5%, compared to 4.81 TWh in H1 2019. Independent supply distribution decreased by 5.8% whereof during quarantine period distribution decreased by about 8-9%. Decrease in independent supply was partly offset by an increase in public supply by 6.8% whereof during quarantine period distribution increased by 5-6%.
SAIDI ratio deteriorated and was 179.23 minutes (H1 2019: 51.26 minutes). SAIFI indicator was equal to 0.87 interruptions (H1 2019: 0.69 interruptions) in H1 2020. Deterioration of quality indicators of continuous electricity supply mainly caused by storm Laura (March 12- 13). The Laura 's record whirlwind wind of 28-31 m/s left more than 250 thousand of residents without electricity. The hurricane Erwin of such a scope stroke Lithuania for the last time in 2005. More than 90 percent of the storm's consequences were eliminated, and electricity was restored in the record time - only in two or three days.
During H1 2020, 8,502 new connection points and 10,194 upgrades were completed in the electricity distribution network. The number of new electricity connection points and upgrades decreased by 4.1% compared to H1 2019.
The volume of gas distributed in H1 2020 decreased by 5.6% and amounted to 3.59 TWh (H1 2019: 3.80 TWh). In H1 2020, higher average air temperatures were the main contributor to the reduction in gas distribution.
Gas distribution SAIDI ratio improved in H1 2020 and was 0.24 minutes (H1 2019: 0.68 minutes) and SAIFI ratio was approximately equal to 0.003 interruptions (H1 2019: 0.005 interruptions). Improvement of the quality indicators resulted from the decrease in network disruptions by third parties.
In H1 2020, 4,030 new connection points and upgrades were completed in the gas distribution network, which is 31.1% less than during H1 2019 because quarters are no longer formed and the tariff per user became higher.

In H1 2020, Networks Revenue reached EUR 236.1 million and was 13.2% or EUR 27.6 million higher than in H1 2019. The increase was mainly driven by higher electricity distribution revenue (EUR 20.3 million) and transmission revenue (EUR 13.7 million) due to on average 11 per cent higher tariff of power distribution service, which is comprised of power transmission, distribution and public service obligations (PSO) components and is approved by the regulator. Increase was partly offset by decreased supply of last resort of electricity revenue (EUR -7.4 million) due to decrease of electricity market price.
In H1 2020, Adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 96.7 million and was 9.6% or EUR 8.5 million higher than in H1 2019. The increase was mainly driven by the growing value of regulated assets. Electricity distribution regulated assets increased from EUR 1,227.2 million in 2019 to EUR 1,399.0 million in 2020, gas distribution regulated assets increased from EUR 188.7 million in 2019 to EUR 225.2 million. WACC of electricity distribution increased from 5.04% in 2019 to 5.28% in 2020, WACC of gas distribution increased from 3.59% in 2019 to 3.84% in 2020. Adjusted EBITDA also increased due to positive changes in new connection and upgrade fees.
Compared to H1 2019, segment's property, plant and equipment, intangible and right-of-use assets increased by 2.3% or EUR 37.0 million due to following Investments made. However, compared to H1 2019, Investments decreased by EUR 46.3 million or 48.4%, mainly resulting from lower investments in expansion (EUR -18.1 million) and maintenance (EUR -15.1 million) of the electricity distribution network and expansion of gas distribution network (EUR -13.6 million).

Electricity generated in Green Generation segment increased by 31.3% in H1 2020, compared to H1 2019. This mainly resulted from higher electricity generation in hydro portfolio. Electricity generation volumes at Kruonis PSHP increased by 92.8% as a result of effective utilisation of fluctuations in electricity prices in H1 2020, which was slightly offset by decrease in Kaunas HPP by 18.9% caused by a lower level of water in the Nemunas river. Volume of electricity generated at wind farms totalled 0.13 TWh, which is 11.1% more compared to H1 2019. Increase in wind farms generation portfolio were impacted by higher load factors as a result of better weather conditions and availability factors.
Heat generation in H1 2020 increased 2.4 times, compared to H1 2019, caused by Kaunas CHP commissioning and test runs for which gas was used. The plant was commissioned in August. Growth of Kaunas CHP generation was partly offset by lower heat generation in biomass portfolio.

In H1 2020, Green Generation Revenues reached 39.5 million and was 9.7% or EUR 3.5 million higher than in H1 2019. The increase was mainly driven by higher sales of Kruonis PSHP (EUR +5.4 million) and higher sales of wind farms (EUR +0.5 million). The above reasons outweighed lower revenue of Kaunas HPP (EUR -2.2 million).
In H1 2020, Adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 23.8 million and was 0.8% or EUR 0.2 million lower than in H1 2019. The decrease was mainly driven by worsened result of Kaunas HPP (EUR -3.6 million) due to lower water level in Nemunas river and lower electricity prices. Segment's adjusted EBITDA decrease was also influenced by the increased SG&A expense of Vilnius and Kaunas CHP projects, as the launch of plants is approaching (EUR -1.0 million). Adjusted EBITDA of wind farms decreased by EUR 0.1 million. The decrease was positively impacted by better result of Kruonis PSHP (EUR +5.5 million) which was mainly caused by effective utilisation of fluctuations in electricity prices.
Compared to H1 2019, property, plant and equipment, intangible and right-of-use assets in the Green Generation segment grew due to ongoing Investments in Vilnius and Kaunas CHP plants and Pomerania wind farm. The segment's Net debt increased accordingly.

Electricity generation volumes at the Elektrėnai Complex increased almost 36.2 times in H1 2020, compared with H1 2019, and reached 0.35 TWh, as a result of low gas and emission allowance prices and changes in the regulation of provided regulated services.
In 2019, the tertiary active power reserve in the capacity of 260 MW was ensured by the most effective unit of Elektrėnai Complex – the CCGT while in 2020 tertiary power reserve is ensured by Elekrėnai Complex 7 and 8 units with the scope of 475 MW.
In 2020, CCGT is providing the service of operation of the isolated network with the scope of 370 MW. By providing this service, under favourable market conditions the CCGT can produce on a commercial basis also. The rest isolated system operation service is provided by 8 unit with the scope of 45 MW.

In H1 2020, Flexible Generation Revenue reached 38.5 million and was 18.8% or EUR 8.9 million lower than in H1 2019. The segment's Revenue decrease was mainly driven by EUR 9.3 million compensation received in H1 2019 which was received from the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Lithuania for the indemnification of potentially inflicted damage by Alstom Power Ltd during the implementation of the project of Lietuvos Elektrinė in 2005–2009. 2019 H1 sales were also boosted by sales of fuel oil stocks that were no longer in use (EUR -4.3 million). 2020 H1 revenue decrease was partly offset by higher revenue of CCGT (EUR +7.0 million). Due to CCGT provision of isolated regime instead of tertiary reserve services in H1 2020 CCGT was able to operate under market conditions and result of sales to the market was higher than return on investment included in tariff of 2019.
In H1 2020, Adjusted EBITDA reached to EUR 11.7 million and was 1.7% or EUR 0.2 million lower than in H1 2019. The decrease was mainly driven by lower gain from sale of fuel oil stocks in H1 2019 (EUR -1.8 million) which was partly offset by better result from CCGT, 7 ant 8 units of Elektrėnai Complex (EUR +0.9 million) due to commercial activities of CCGT and regulated activities of 7 and 8 units of Elektrėnai Complex as in 2019 these two units were delivering ancillary services only one and two months respectively.

Total electricity sales in retail market in H1 2020 increased and totalled 3.10 TWh, compared to H1 2019. Increase was mainly caused by higher sales levels due to new contracts signed at the end of 2019 for the following year with B2B Lithuanian market clients. Significant growth in total B2B electricity volumes (by 43.6 % in Lithuania) includes COVID-19 effect - due to lockdown B2B electricity consumption reduced by about 8-9% during quarantine period, while B2C - increased by 5- 6%. Electricity sales volume in the wholesale market decreased by 46.2%, as a result of smaller trading portfolio in Polish market, in comparison to H1 2019.
The volume of gas sold increased by 44.0% and amounted to 7.24 TWh in H1 2020 (H1 2019: 5.02 TWh). This was mainly influenced by entry into Finnish gas market and higher gas sales in Latvian market because of won Latvenergo's tender for c. 0.9 TWh. Sales in Lithuanian decreased by 8.4% as a result of increased competition in B2B sector, which was partly offset by the increased sales for B2C customers. Sales in wholesale gas market increased by 3.5% in H1 2020 compared with the same period last year influenced by increase in sales through Get Baltic gas exchange, which was partly offset by decrease in sales through LNG terminal.

In H1 2020, Customers and Solutions Revenue reached EUR 272.7 million and was 4.3% or EUR 11.2 million higher than in H1 2019. The increase was mainly driven by increase of revenue from public electricity supply activities due to 14.6% higher electricity tariff set by the regulator and higher sales volumes by 5.3% (EUR +16.9 million) and increase of B2B electricity supply revenue (EUR +16.0 million) due to higher volume of sold electricity. Increase was partly offset lower gas sales to B2B customers due to lower gas market price (EUR -17.7 million) and lower gas sales to residential customers due to lower tariff set by regulator (EUR -6.7 million).
In H1 2020, Adjusted EBITDA reached to EUR -1.8 million and was 162.1% or EUR 4.7 million lower than in H1 2019. The decrease was mainly driven by the B2B electricity product (EUR -4,7 million) due to negative impact of proxy hedge results (ineffective proxy hedge in relation to unfavourable price moves in derivative hedging products) and reduced electricity consumption of hedged volumes of our B2B customers portfolio because of COVID-19, that was not fully compensated by positive effect from increased B2B customers portfolio and higher total B2B electricity sales volumes (+43.6% YoY in Lithuanian B2B retail market).
Compared with H1 2019, Net debt decreased mostly because of lower loans balance.

Code of legal entity 110878442 VAT payer code LT108784411 Register of Legal Entities
To the shareholders of "Ignitis grupė", AB
We have audited the accompanying interim condensed financial statements of "Ignitis grupė", AB, (hereinafter the Company), which comprise the interim condensed statement of financial position as of 30 June 2020, the interim condensed statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the three- and six-month periods then ended, the interim condensed statement of changes in equity, the interim condensed statement of cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and notes to the interim condensed financial statements.
In our opinion, the accompanying interim condensed financial statements have been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the European Union ("IAS 34").
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the interim condensed financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code) together with the requirements of the Law on audit of financial statements of the Republic of Lithuania that are relevant to the audit in the Republic of Lithuania, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Law on Audit of the financial statements of the Republic of Lithuania and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Other information consists of the information included in the Interim Report for the six-month period ended 30 June 2020 other than the interim condensed financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Management is responsible for the other information presentation.
Our opinion on the interim condensed financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon, except as indicated below.
In connection to our audit of the interim condensed financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the interim condensed financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
We also have to evaluate, if the financial information included in the Interim Report corresponds to the interim condensed financial statements for the same period and if the Interim Report was prepared in accordance with the relevant legal requirements. In our opinion, based on the work performed in the course of the audit of interim condensed financial statements, in all material respects:
• The financial information included in the Interim Report corresponds to the financial information included in the interim condensed financial statements for the same period; and
• The Interim Report was prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Law on Financial Reporting by Undertakings of the Republic of Lithuania.

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the interim condensed financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the European Union ("IAS 34"), and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of interim condensed financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the interim condensed financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's interim condensed financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the interim condensed financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this interim condensed financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
The partner in charge of the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Jonas Akelis.

These financial statements cover the Company's interim condensed financial statements of Ignitis grupė AB" prepared for the 6 months period ended 30 June 2020 (hereinafter "interim financial statements"). The Company's interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and applicable to interim financial reporting (International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Reporting). These interim financial statements do not include all the information required to prepare annual financial statements, therefore these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
Interim financial statements are presented in euros and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand (thousand EUR) unless stated otherwise. The Company's interim financial statements provide comparative information in respect of the previous period. The Company's financial year coincides with a calendar year.
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these interim financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019, with the exception of the new standards which entered into force as at 1 January 2020.
Preparing these interim financial statements, the Company did not adopt new standards, amendments and interpretations, the effective date of which is later than 1 January 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The following new standards and amendments to the standards that became effective as at 1 January 2020 and did not affect significantly these interim financial statements.

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. The IASB has 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 purpose 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. These amendments had no impact on these interim financial statements of the Company.
The IASB issued amendments to the definition of a business in IFRS 3 (amendments to IFRS 3) aimed at resolving the difficulties that arise when an entity is determining whether it has acquired a business or a group of assets. The amendments are effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after 1 January 2020 and to asset acquisition that occur on or after the beginning of that period, with earlier adoption permitted. These amendments had no impact on these interim financial statements of the Company but may impact future periods if the Company enters to any business combinations.
The amendments clarify the definition of 'material' and how it should be applied. New definition clarifies that 'information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence the 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 IFRSs. These amendments had no impact on these interim financial statements of the Company, nor is there expected to be any future impact to them.
Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 conclude phase one of its work to respond to the effects of Interbank Offered Rates (IBOR) reform on financial reporting. The amendments published, deal with issues affecting financial reporting in the period before the replacement of an existing interest rate benchmark with an alternative interest rate and address the implications for specific hedge accounting requirements in IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, which require forward-looking analysis. The amendments provided temporary reliefs, applicable to all hedging relationships that are directly affected by the interest rate benchmark reform, which enable hedge accounting to continue during the period of uncertainty before the replacement of an existing interest rate benchmark with an alternative nearly risk-free interest rate. There are also amendments to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures regarding additional disclosures around uncertainty arising from the interest rate benchmark reform. Phase two (ED) will focus on issues that could affect financial reporting when an existing interest rate benchmark is replaced with a risk-free interest rate (an RFR). These amendments had no impact on these interim financial statements of the Company.
New standards, amendments and interpretations that are not mandatory for reporting period beginning on 1 January 2020 and have not been early adopted when preparing these interim financial statements are presented below:
The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021 with earlier application permitted if both IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 Financial Instruments have also been applied. In its March 2020 meeting the Board decided to defer the effective date to 2023. IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts issued. It also requires similar principles to be applied to reinsurance contracts held and investment contracts with discretionary participation features issued. The objective is to ensure that entities provide relevant information in a way that faithfully represents those contracts. This information gives a basis for users of financial statements to assess the effect that contracts within the scope of IFRS 17 have on the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of an entity. This IFRS will not have any impact on the financial position or performance of the Company as insurance services are not provided. The standard has not yet been endorsed by the EU.
The amendments to IFRS 17 are effective, retrospectively, for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. The amendments aim at helping companies implement the Standard. In particular, the amendments are designed to reduce costs by simplifying some requirements in the Standard, make financial performance easier to explain and ease transition by deferring the effective date of the Standard to 2023 and by providing additional relief to reduce the effort required when applying IFRS 17 for the first time.
The amendments to IFRS 4 change the fixed expiry date for the temporary exemption in IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts from applying IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, so that entities would be required to apply IFRS 9 for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023.
All amounts in thousands of euro unless otherwise stated
These amendments have not yet been endorsed in the EU. The management has assessed that these amendments will not have any impact on the Company's financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 1: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (published 23 January 2020, effective from 1 January 2022)
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with earlier application permitted. The IASB has issued an exposure draft to defer the effective date to 1 January 2023. The amendments aim to promote consistency in applying the requirements by helping companies determine whether, in the statement of interim financial position (hereinafter "statement of financial position"), debt and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date should be classified as current or non-current. The amendments affect the presentation of liabilities in the statement of financial position and do not change existing requirements around measurement or timing of recognition of any asset, liability, income or expenses, nor the information that entities disclose about those items. Also, the amendments clarify the classification requirements for debt which may be settled by the company issuing own equity instruments. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this amendment on their interim financial statements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.
Amendments to IFRS 3 Business combinations; IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment; IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent liabilities and Contingent Assets as well as Annual Improvements (amendments) (published 14 May 2020, effective from 1 January 2022)
The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022 with earlier application permitted. The IASB has issued narrow-scope amendments to the IFRS Standards as follows:
These amendments have not yet been endorsed in the EU. The Company's management is currently assessing the impact of these amendments on the Company's financial statements.
The amendment applies, retrospectively, to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 June 2020. Earlier application is permitted, including in financial statements not yet authorized for issue at 28 May 2020. IASB amended the standard to provide relief to lessees from applying IFRS 16 guidance on lease modification accounting for rent concessions arising as a direct consequence of the covid-19 pandemic. The amendment provides a practical expedient for the lessee to account for any change in lease payments resulting from the covid-19 related rent concession the same way it would account for the change under IFRS 16, if the change was not a lease modification, only if all of the following conditions are met:
These amendments have not yet been endorsed in the EU. The Company's management estimated that the application of these amendments will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
The amendments address an acknowledged inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and those in IFRS 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 these amendments will have no significant effect on the Company's financial statements.

Preparing these interim financial statements the significant management judgements regarding the application of the accounting policies and accounting estimates were the same as used in preparing the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019, except those accounting estimates and judgements presented below:

The Company has taken steps to manage the risks.
The following measures are applied by the Company to manage liquidity risk:
Short-term liquidity risk is managed by maintaining obligatory lines of credit and overdrafts. The period of these credit lines must be at least two years, and they must account for at least 20% of the Group's consolidated net debt. Non-obligatory credit lines can be used for maintaining extra liquidity, their extent is not limited.
Long-term liquidity risk is managed through continuous assurance by the Treasury Department of the Partnership of possibilities to finance the activities of the Group using at least two sources, i.e. debt securities, investment bank loans or commercial bank loans, and other means.

All the conditions are in place for efficient teleworking without any disruptions in the performance of principal job.
The Company's management, having assessed the potential impact of COVID-19 factors on the impairment of non-trade receivables (note 5.1), has not identified any circumstances that would require the recognition of an impairment loss of non-trade receivables.
Management has also reviewed the criteria for classifying loans and borrowings, as well as other receivables/payables, as non-current or current, and has not identified any circumstances that would require a significant adjustment to this classification.
The Company's management, having assessed the potential impact of COVID-19 factors on the Company's operations, did not identify any threats to the Company's operations.
The Company classifies property, plant and equipment and disposal groups as held for sale, if their carrying amount is recovered through a disposal rather than through continuing use, and the assets and disposal groups are available for immediate sale, and a sale is considered highly probable in their current condition and under the conditions that are usual for sale of such assets and disposal groups. The Company is committed to a plan to sell these assets and disposal groups, and initiate an active programme to locate a buyer. The sale of assets is to be performed within one year of classification as held for sale and there are no indications that the plan will be significantly changed or withdrawn.
