REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS-INTRALOT GROUP TO THE ANNUAL GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE SHAREHOLDERS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 01/01/2016-31/12/2016

Dear Shareholders,

The past year was marked by important improvement of INTRALOT's financial structure as well as notable successes in the evolution of our operational capacities, bearing the fruits of important transformations that have taken place in the past couple of years. The results of such efforts are clearly reflected in our 2016 financial results.

During last year we began unfolding our strategic initiatives towards products' and services' portfolio enhancement and diversification based on a philosophy that addresses players' needs and drives their engagement, reaping the fruits of our R&D investments in areas such as Customer Relations Management and personalized Content Management Systems.

We achieved the consummation of important M&A deals that expand our market penetration capacity through synergies with strong local partners and enrich our product portfolio in markets such as Italy, Peru and Bulgaria while at the same time creating a lighter asset structure that frees up resources that will significantly contribute towards future growth.

The prospects for INTRALOT to open new markets are stronger than ever with more than 30 projects approaching maturity worldwide while targeted interventions and marketing efforts have strongly improved the performance and profitability in existing retail operations.

INTRALOT remains committed to shaping the future of our industry with next generation solutions that modernize lotteries around the world. At the same time we remain attached to the WLA principles of responsible gaming and the UN Global Compact principles for sustainable development by improving our related policies and reporting standards. We strive to keep our employees motivated in a safe and stimulating working environment and to create value for all stakeholders through policies that promote transparency and integrity.

We are extremely optimistic about the growing impact of our strategic initiatives towards stronger financial performance of our company and enhancement of our leadership position as a reliable partner in our industry across all areas of activity.

Regarding the Group's financial results in 2016, revenues increased by 7,1% to €1.323,6m from €1.235,5m in 2015. EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization) increased by 6,6%, reaching €175,8m from €164,9m in 2015. Profit before taxes from continuing operations decreased by 90,1% to €4,8m from €47,9m in 2015, while profit after taxes and after non-controlling interests from total operations was shaped to €0,9m from losses of €65,1m in 2015. Concerning Parent Company results, revenues were €65,5m in 2016, while losses after taxes were €0,4m.

During 2016 we successfully refinanced our €325m Senior Notes, due 2018, with a €250m bond, due 2021, reducing at the same time the annual bond servicing cost by 3%. In parallel, we negotiated our €200m revolving credit facility, achieving an increase in our available credit line by €25m and an extension to 2019. The quality of our pre-existing and incoming investors reflects the market's positive perception of our firm resulting from a carefully prepared roadshow designed to address a demanding investors' audience.

Business Activities

INTRALOT taps the gaming market value chain end to end as one of the few vertically integrated operators that have the capabilities to manage and operate activities across the entire value chain. Our addressable market comprises of a large number of state owned and private licensed lottery operators.

Value chain of gaming market

The Group, under its contracts and licenses, functions both as a Business to Consumer ("B2C") operator, managing frontline customer facing activities, as well as a Business to Business ("B2B")/Business to Government ("B2G") operator, managing the support stages of the value chain for other "B2C" operators which may be public and or state owned. In practice, INTRALOT under its "B2B/B2G" operator hat provides hardware and software solutions as well as operational support services to "B2C" operators. Spanning end to end the gaming value chain offers INTRALOT a distinctive advantage as it has helped the Group to transfer knowledge and best practices from its "B2C" to "B2B/B2G" operations and vice versa.

Contractual arrangements

Typically, "B2B/B2G" and "B2C" engagements are carried out under three types of contractual arrangements, namely technology contracts, management contracts and licensed operations.

Technology and Support Services Contracts

Our technology and support activities are primarily comprised of the supply of technology solutions and support, with the overall operational responsibility remaining with a state or state licensed gaming operator. Our contracts in this segment typically include the provision of equipment, software and maintenance and support services to lottery and gaming organizations pursuant to long term contracts, which provide us with a high level of stable and recurring revenues. These contracts also include the design, development and implementation of software tailored to each jurisdiction and operation. We currently manage 55 individual technology and support services contracts across 40 jurisdictions through 20 subsidiaries. We believe that our technological expertise gives us a competitive advantage worldwide.

Under our technology and support services contracts, we are typically paid a fee by state or state licensed gaming organizations based on either (i) a pre-determined fixed percentage of customer sales (amounts wagered by players) or (ii) a fixed payment over the duration of the contract in respect of multi-year contracts. In addition, we periodically sell technology equipment and relevant services to other lottery and gaming operators.

Revenues under our technology and support services contracts are not subject to payout costs for player winnings. Our technology and support services contracts represented approximately 16,1% of our revenue and 31,3% of our revenue net of payout in the last twelve months ended December 31, 2016.

Management Contracts

Our management contracts activity is primarily comprised of the management of all aspects of a gaming organization. In addition to the provision of services included under our technology and support services activity described above, we manage day to day operations, marketing services, sales network and risk management/odds setting for sports betting. Under these contracts, the customer (who is the license holder of the gaming/lottery operation) typically retains responsibility for certain frontline tasks, as well as the management of retailers, cash management and game approvals in addition to oversight and regulatory control. We currently operate four management contracts in three jurisdictions through five subsidiaries.

We are paid a fee under our management contracts based on a fixed percentage of wagers. Revenue under our management contracts are not subject to payout costs for player winnings. Our management contracts represented approximately 8,8% of our revenue and 17,0% of our revenue net of payout in the last twelve months ended December 31, 2016.

Licensed Operations

Through our licensed operations activity, we are responsible for all aspects of a gaming operation, including the selection and provision of technology and its ongoing support, as well as the management of the operations. In addition, because we are typically the direct license holder, we are also responsible for our relationship with the local regulators. In many cases, our licenses are open ended since they do not have a fixed term or are automatically renewable as long as the licensed terms are complied with. We currently operate under 28 individual licenses through a combination of wholly and partially owned subsidiaries and joint ventures, across 14 jurisdictions. We operate through retail locations and online channels.

The revenue we generate from our licensed operations is based on the total amount of money wagered by players on various gaming products before payout for players' winnings. Our licensed operations represented approximately 75,1% of our revenue and 51,7% of our revenue net of payout in the last twelve months ended December 31, 2016.

Each gaming jurisdiction is at a different stage of the development cycle and is therefore subject to its own distinct dynamics. The main drivers of the development cycle include introduction of stable and clear regulatory regimes, product innovation, liberalization and privatization.

Driven by country and state budget deficits and increased demand for social welfare spending, post financial crisis regulatory initiatives have fueled growth in the global gaming market. However, there will be an ever greater fragmentation of regulatory approaches, with a number of different models being adopted across countries.

Introduction of regulatory regimes

Stable and clear regulatory regimes have proved favorable for operators and provide players with additional security and responsible gaming frameworks. Regulation within such frameworks evolves in the direction of improving the perception of gaming as a pastime, taking into account the interest of all stakeholders including governments' focus on higher revenue for good causes, wider private operators' involvement and consumers' interest in entertainment and chance to win. Overall, all gambling segments will face tighter rules on anti-money laundering, know your customer and responsible gambling requirements over the year ahead.

Product innovation

The industry is making huge strides towards meeting the needs of the modern consumer. There is the focus on integrating mobile into the retail playing experience, on innovating and optimizing retail operations, on creating the seamless player journey amidst the evolution towards the omni-channel model, on innovating game content and business processes, on so many fronts. Strategies focus on optimizing the lottery playing experience and journey.

Big data is slowly being replaced by smart data, where the focus is on creating full player profiles, understanding what attracts audiences and why, across all different sales channels. Smart data builds on deeply understanding customers so as to provide the operator with decision-making opportunities that will maximise the potential of the business. As play-styles and preference categories are becoming narrower and narrower, the trend is to appeal to smaller and smaller market segments, where products are customized to appeal to the unique preferences of the individual. More specifically, product innovation focuses on:

  • Managing contextual and personalized content in desktop, mobile screen, retail terminals, Self-Service and easy play solutions.
  • Engaging players with loyalty and 2nd chance schemes and use intelligent promotions to drive further sales.
  • Empowering retailers to optimize their business in conjunction with anonymous and eponymous promotions.
  • Introducing gamification of existing lottery games together with new game areas, such as skill based games with leaderboards, progressive jackpots.

Online Gaming legislation

Each country reviewed has taken an idiosyncratic approach to the sector, which leaves internationally focused companies continue to face challenges of complying with a range of different requirements in each country. Tax rates, license fees, permitted products, testing standards, land-based requirements, administrative costs, technical solutions to safeguard the market from unlicensed operators, and restrictions on marketing and supply are all important factors that operators weigh against entering a new market. Specifically for online gambling, new market openings are set to be accompanied by a further spread of website and payment blocking regimes, as more novel enforcement tactics are also considered in jurisdictions such as Australia and South Africa.

Privatization

At present, state-run lotteries contribute to approximately 78% of global lottery sales (including instant tickets and excluding KENO) with privately managed or licensed operators accounting for the remainder. There is an increasing trend for governments to outsource the operation or management of their lotteries, which represents a significant opportunity for private operators. Recent examples include the New South Wales, Australia, Government's decision to award the concession to operate Lottery games to a private operator, the Irish Government's recent award of a concession to operate the Irish National Lottery, the Greek Government's award of a 12-year concession to operate and manage instant and draw tickets in the country and the Turkish Government's ongoing process to privatize its national lottery, Milli Piyango, through the sale of a ten-year concession.

Gaming market trends by region

The region of North America is the pioneer in the global gaming GGR. In 2016, the regional market generated €117 billion and is forecasted to perform a CAGR'16e-'20e at 2,8%, which is translated into €130 billion in 2020e. In the United States, where 48 out of 50 states offer a type of gambling, casino is the first product in total GGR with +3,6% CAGR '16e-'20e and lotteries follow with +2,7% CAGR '16e-'20e. In Canada, government-operated gaming is the vast majority of the gaming revenues which includes bingo, casinos, electronic gaming machines, internet gaming and lottery. According to GBGC analysis, the market is to grow at slightly below historical levels as a result of same-store sales growth initiatives (e.g. Powerball), the ongoing outsourcing of lottery management and the introduction of a regulatory framework for online gaming.

Asian gaming market is estimated to be one of the largest gaming market by GGR following North America. It is estimated to have accounted for 31% of global gaming GGR in 2016 (€110 billion) with CAGR'16e- '20e at 4%. Based on GBGC, the market is to grow at near historical levels primarily driven by opportunities in sports betting and mobile and online gaming in China, as well as betting and casino expansion in countries such as the Philippines and Macau.

Europe remains the most mature market worldwide (€97,4 billion) with the wider products' variety legally offered, despite the challenging economic environment. Lottery is the most mature vertical in the European markets, accounting for €34bn in 2016 and betting is the product with the highest potential for growth with +4,7% CAGR '16e-'20e. 2017 is set to be an eventful year with a number of initiatives, such as same-store-sales growth through the launch of new products (e.g. EuroJackpot), a higher number of VLTs in Italy and Greece, new regulation in markets that will result in the enfranchisement of legal operators and consumers (e.g. Denmark and Poland) and an increase in demand for interactive forms of gaming.

Latin America and Africa are estimated to have contributed to 3% and 1% of the global GGR in 2016 (€10 billion and €3,4 billion, respectively). Despite their low market share in the global GGR compared to the most mature markets, both of them exhibit above average forecasted CAGR'16e-'20e, specifically 4,1% for Africa and 3,4% for Latin America. Primary contributors to this expansion are the increased interest in retail, casino, gaming machines, which verifies the fact that land-based gaming and gambling activities have traditionally been closely linked to the tourism industry in the region. Also, a significant reason for this growth is the year-on-year increase of the internet, and therefore the smartphones, penetration. In 2017, it is predicted that 55% of the population will have access to the internet; this figure is rising to 70% for Argentina, which gives large opportunities to the online operators. From a legislative perspective Chile, Peru and Colombia have embarked on a plan to create an online gaming law.

Gaming market trends by product

Lotteries represent the most traditional segment and have historically attracted the largest number of players. For the FY'16, the segment accounted for the 30% of the total Global GGR (€104,2 billions) supported by the strong growth in the North America. Latin American lotteries reported the best performance in sales over 2014. Overall, growth in the segment has been supported by a shift towards operations outsourcing and privatization.

The gaming machines market is estimated to have accounted for 18,1% of the global gaming market in 2015 (€64,4 billions) and is forecasted to grow at historical levels. Much of this growth is expected to originate from content optimization (e.g. gaming, graphics), the roll-out of more sophisticated machines and yield management tools, particularly adopted within North America.

The betting market has a significant market share in the overall gambling market accounting for around 14% of the GGR across the globe (€51 billion), including both sports betting and horse racing. The shift in gambling regulations across the world has opened up opportunities for the product. Governments around the world are easing the regulations in some of the countries that have huge potential to grow, which will positively aid in the growth of the market during the forecasted period. Also, the increase in the popularity of gambling apps and social gambling are likely to propel the growth of the market during the forecast period.

Interactive gambling, via desktop, mobile and iTV, has reached a penetration of 10,6% approximately of the total Global GGR (€37,7 billion) and is forecasted to reach 13,2% in 2020e (€53,2 billion). Betting is the first product in GGR and accounts for 48,2% of it (€18,1 billion); followed by casinos (22,2%), poker (8,2%), lotteries (10,3%), bingo (5,7%) and skill/other gaming (5,4%). Lottery is the product with the highest potential for growth with 15,3% CAGR'16e-20e.

Europe holds the leading position of the global interactive gaming with 48,5% of it, North America shows the highest projected CAGR'16e-'20e at 19,2% due to expectations that various changes will take place in the current legal framework.

Undoubtedly, the global interactive gaming GGR has been boosted by the high penetration of smartphones, whereas it is estimated that the 32,6% of it will be generated by mobile gambling with a 15,5% CAGR'16e- '20e. Betting is the most popular vertical among others for the mobile gambling and generates the 70% of the global mobile gambling GGR (€8,6 billion).

Our Strategy & Strengths

Our Strategy

Maintain leadership in technology innovation and streamline technology development

We seek to develop leading technology in lottery gaming, sports betting, VLTs/AWPs, racing and IT products and services through continuously investing in innovative solutions and adopting proven methodologies and best practices in all of our designs and implementations. Our R&D efforts include partnerships and collaborative initiatives both in Greece and abroad. In January 2016, we began establishing competence centers which serve as innovation hubs in Malta, the Philippines and Greece. As of December 31, 2016, we held approximately 130 patents in gaming technology. Our R&D efforts have led to the development of our modular Lotos platform, which we expect to become our universal platform to help us better tailor and continuously improve our product solutions. We are streamlining our technology development model as part of our "asset-light" strategy which is intended to produce higher margins and facilitate lower capital expenditure resulting in enhanced cash flow resilience by combining global product and services offerings with the establishment of local partnerships. As the first pillar of our "asset-light" strategy and as part of our global product and services offerings, we intend to use our global technological

and operational capabilities to minimize customization requirements allowing us to micro tailor products following local distribution. In order to expand access to our global product offerings, we are using new distribution channels including self-service terminals as well as mobile capabilities. We are also offering new sports betting services, expected to be significantly strengthened through the strategic partnership with AMELCO, as well as VLT monitoring services.

Focus on establishing strong partnerships

The second pillar of our "asset-light" strategy is focused on establishing strong local partnerships in certain markets. Historically, when we entered new markets (such as Italy and Peru), we funded our expansion, distributed our products and provided services on our own. Recently, we have shifted our growth focus to new partnerships. We believe partnerships may provide the best means to grow and operate efficiently in certain local markets as we benefit from our local partners' relationships, knowledge of regulatory constraints and the local industry. Operating through local partnerships also allows us to share financial and operational risk, reduce capital expenditure and improve access to local funding. We derive further benefits from dividend streams from our local partners as well as cost and operational synergies. In line with our "asset-light" model, we intend to pursue local partnerships with respect to existing businesses as well as new ventures. We are deliberate and strategic in our selection of local partners only choosing partners who are well capitalized, have an established presence in their respective markets, substantial experience in the local industry, and the ability to offer an extensive distribution chain. Often these partners are experienced retail operators, financial sponsors, or large utilities. Examples of ventures operated with local partners include Inteltek in Turkey, our new partnership Eurobet, a numerical and instant tickets operator in Bulgaria, and Gamenet in Italy.

Focus on increasing cash flow generation and revenue visibility

It is our strategy to improve our cash flow through synergies and efficiencies realized through strategic partnerships and the management of our long term contracts. We expect that operating through local partnerships with well-established and experienced partners will help us realize operational and financial synergies at the local and headquarters levels. We also expect to improve our cash flow generation through the strategic and proactive management of our long term contracts. We selectively seek to maintain and enter into contracts that match our stringent profitability and cash generation targets. These contracts are often for higher margin business activities such as providing technology or managed services. We continuously evaluate the profitability of our existing contracts and have selectively disengaged less profitable contracts such as our contract in the Czech Republic, Australia and Suriname. We also aim to enhance revenue visibility and expected cash flow by entering into long term contracts or renewable licenses to provide revenue stream stability. For 2016, we estimate that approximately 85% of the revenues for the period were generated through multi-year contracts or renewable licenses that are available to us until 2021 (although actual revenues that may be generated in the future from those contracts may increase or decrease).

De lever and optimize our capital structure

Our strategy is to delever our business through additional cash flow generated by expected operational and financial synergies and efficiencies as well as the expected positive cash flow impact from our shift to an "asset-light" model. By entering new markets through partnerships with local partners, we expect to reduce our capital expenditures and to obtain assistance accessing local financing on more favorable terms. We also expect to receive dividends from the joint venture entities which, along with the cash proceeds from recent divestments, can be used to further reduce our debt. The recent refinancing of our €325m Senior Bond Note due in 2018, with a €250m bond at significantly improved pricing, highlights our commitment towards delivering our business. In addition, we seek to maintain a conservative financial policy focused on strong liquidity and we do not intend to undertake any material acquisitions in the medium term or to pay dividends to our shareholders until our target leverage is achieved.

Strategy Success Factors

Our global presence, proprietary technology and track record of innovation position us as one of the leaders in the gaming sector and create significant barriers for new entrants.

We believe that our significant, innovative technological and operating expertise has positioned us as a global leader in the supply of integrated gaming systems and services, with a balanced presence in both developed and developing markets. We hold a leading market position in licensed gaming in the majority of the highly regulated markets in which we operate. As of December 31, 2016, we enjoyed a leading market position in the technology and support services market for lotteries in the United States, with contracts in 11 states and the District of Columbia, and a leading market share of the Argentinean market, with contracts in 11 provinces. For new entrants to the markets in which we operate, our significant market share and established presence, along with our position as the single licensed operator in many markets, pose substantial barriers to entry.

We also believe that our leading technology and research and development (R&D) capabilities enable us to effectively compete with other technology providers and developers, decrease capital expenditures and upfront costs as well as reduce ongoing maintenance costs. In each of the last 3 years, we were included in the EU Industrial Research and Development Investment Scoreboard prepared and published by the European Commission for our significant investments in R&D, which we believe demonstrates our leadership and commitment as a technological provider. We hold approximately 130 patents in gaming technology and we test an average of numerous gaming concepts across our business activities per year to remain competitive in our offering of the latest games and variations for the players. Our leading development capabilities also allow us to provide innovative and technologically advanced services across our three core business activities of technology and support services, management and licensed operations. In our technology and management services, we benefit from long term recurring contracts. For new entrants to the markets in which we operate, the development of technological and operational expertise and the high capital expenditure required to invest in R&D present high barriers to entry. Unlike new entrants, our proprietary technology and expertise, along with our flexible operational model, allow us to use our technological and operational capability to take advantage of economies of scale by creating standardized products which can later be individually adapted for distribution, thereby reducing our costs.

Broad based Diversification across Contracts, Geographies and Business Activities

Our business is well diversified geographically as our three core business activities of technology, and support services, management contracts and licensed operations, are spread across various countries. We have operations in 55 jurisdictions on five continents and in 2016, no single country represented more

than 23,6% of our EBITDA. Additionally, substantially all of our revenues and cash resources are located outside of Greece, which mitigates sovereign risk associated with economic and political developments in the country. In 2016, Greece, represented less than 3,0% of our revenue, primarily derived from our contracts with the Greek Organization of Football Prognostics S.A. ("OPAP"). We also benefit from a balanced presence in both developed and developing markets. In developed markets, we benefit from stable recurring revenues through long term contracts, while in developing countries (particularly countries that typically achieve higher GDP growth) we have the opportunity to achieve high growth. We believe our global footprint allows us to diversify market risks that are specific to certain regions and to mitigate the cyclical nature of the sports gaming industry. Moreover, we benefit from strong contract diversity with a diversified portfolio of 87 contracts and licenses, including: 55 technology and support services contracts, which comprised 31,3% of our revenue net of payout during 2016; four management contracts, which comprised 17,0% of our revenue net of payout during the same period; and 28 licenses, which comprised 51,7% of our revenue net of payout during the same period.

Highly Visible Recurring Revenues

We believe that the long term nature of our contracts and our strong track record of contract renewals provide us with significant revenue visibility. We estimate that approximately 85% of the revenues for the year ended December 31, 2016, were generated through multi-year contracts or renewable licenses that are available to us until 2021 (although the actual revenues that may be generated in the future from these contracts may increase or decrease). Our multi-year contracts have an average contract term of 8 years. During the period from 2006 to 2015, we grew our licensed operations significantly. Many of our licensed operations contracts are open ended, which means that they do not have a fixed term or are automatically renewable on a periodic basis, subject to our compliance with the license terms. We believe the automatically renewable nature of these contracts adds to the stability of our revenue streams.

We also have a strong track record of renewing or extending our contracts as they come up for renewal. Since January 2013, we have successfully renewed or extended more than 94% of our contracts. Based on this experience, we expect to renew the substantial majority of our contracts upon their respective expirations, which we believe reflects the strength of our market position. In 2016, we signed renewal contracts in connection with the operation of lottery games in the State of Minas Gerais in Brazil for a six year term, as well as three year term renewal contracts with the Nederlandse Staatsloterij/De Lotto in connection with the lotteries in the Netherlands, with the Pacific Online Systems Corporation in connection with the operation of the games of the Philippines Charity Sweepstakes Office and renewed following a competitive selection process, our Idaho contract for another 10 years on better terms.

Highly Scalable "Asset-light" Operating Model

Our highly scalable operating model allows us to benefit from global growth opportunities while adhering to strict investment criteria, with the aim of achieving target threshold returns. Our scalable business model is supported by our advanced IT platform which allows us to optimize product development by minimizing customization requirements during development while providing for further product adaptation ("micro tailoring") upon distribution, making our product offering more adaptable. Our adaptable product offering enables us to provide technology to third party operators, manage operations on behalf of licensees and hold and manage licenses directly as the IT platforms in various jurisdictions permit. It also enables us to

address broader gaming sector trends such as increased demand for a personalized player experience, the development of a robust "all-in-one" gaming platform to ensure a unified customer experience converging land base and interactive channels, as well as offering personalized game offerings and content and the shift towards mobile as the primary access point to online retail in the gaming sector.

Our "asset-light" operating model is also supported by our partnerships with local operators which allow us to share financial and operational risk, reduce capital investments and acquire new contracts and customers. Due to the recent global trend towards liberalization of gaming regulations driven by country and state budget deficits and increased demand for social welfare spending, we are able to expand the jurisdictions in which we offer our products and services by leveraging our expertise and capabilities. Historically, we sought to enter new markets on our own. Recently, however, we have established a rigorous evaluation process for identifying potential partners present in markets where we already operate as well as in new promising markets. We believe these partnerships provide the best means to grow and operate efficiently in certain local markets, as we are able to benefit from our partners' local relationships, extensive know how and access to capital. Examples of partnerships established in 2016 are Eurobet in Bulgaria, Gamenet in Italy and Intralot de Peru in Peru.

Strong and Experienced Management Team

We have a seasoned and experienced management team, many of whom have been with the Company since its establishment. Our management team has extensive experience in the industry and, under the leadership of our new CEO, Antonios Kerastaris, has demonstrated a strong entrepreneurial and strategic perspective with respect to the international gaming industry. This approach enables us to identify and pursue strategic industry opportunities with significant revenue generation potential before our competitors. In recent years, our management team has refocused the operating model of the company on establishing strong partnerships with local partners who can facilitate our growth in certain local markets while also helping us to operate more efficiently. Management has also refocused the operating model of the Company on maintaining our leadership position in technology innovation and development, establishing strong local partnerships and enhancing cash flow generation through our local partnership model which also facilitates efficient operations, provides for low capital expenditures and dividend streams, our contract management policy promotes the strategic consideration of potential as well as existing contracts to optimize cash generation. We seek new, and seek to renew long term contracts in high margin business lines such as providing technology and managed services.

Best in Class Risk Management and Corporate Controls

Our primary payout risk comes from our sports betting book. We manage this risk through best in class local odds setting as well as a betting center in Greece that controls our global fixed odds betting activity and payout policy on a real time basis. Our sports betting portfolio represented approximately 41,6% of our total revenue for 2016, and we have a long track record of successfully managing payout risk. We also enter into risk exchange agreements with major international betting operators when possible to further reduce our exposure to any potential outcome.

Furthermore, we have rigorous internal controls and compliance procedures that are in line with listing standards and international best practices for cash management and legal and regulatory compliance. These include procedures to monitor transactions, maintain key back up procedures and regular contingency planning as well as internal audits and procedures to detect money laundering. All of these procedures are facilitated in part by our central monitoring and control system that tracks all of our operations through our Lotos Open System ("Lotos"). In September 2011, we became the first international lottery vendor to be certified according to the World Lottery Association Security Control Standard.

Strong Values and Commitment to Responsible Gaming Operations

We seek to promote responsible gaming operations, which we believe are essential to renewing our existing contracts and winning new ones with lottery and gaming organizations. We strive to adhere to the following objectives across the INTRALOT Group network:

  • comply with the applicable laws and regulations as set out by regulators in host countries;
  • ensure that the interests of players and vulnerable groups are protected;
  • continually develop appropriate practices and technologies on the basis of market research and information gathered from our global operations;
  • promote the implementation of responsible gaming practices in our corporate activities and externally with our customers' activities; and
  • educate and provide the public with accurate and balanced information so as to enable players to make informed gaming choices.

In general, regulators require us to provide well designed games in a secure environment while preventing, to the maximum extent possible, underage, illegal and problem gambling and minimizing any potential harm to society.

Reported consolidated revenue increased by 7,1% compared to the prior year, this led to total revenue for the twelve-month period ending 31 December 2016 to €1.323,6m. The increase in Fiscal Year 2016 derives from: €+155,4m in East Europe due to increased sales in Bulgaria and Turkey, €+21,6m in North America driven by the sale of multi-play self-service lottery terminals and the largest Powerball Jackpot in history. Revenue increases were partially counterbalanced by decreased sales of €-57,8m in Asia due to lower sales in Azerbaijan where the local currency suffered severe devaluation, and €-36,9m in South America due to the considerable devaluation of the local Argentinian currency and softer sales in Jamaica (FX driven) and Brazil.

The Payout ratio in FY16 increased by 3,5pps vs. FY15 (70,2% vs. 66,7%) primarily due to Bulgaria, Jamaica & Malta. At the same time, GGR increased by 3,5% as the sales increase in our "B2B/B2G" contracts fully balanced the augmented payout effect.

The Gross profit margin was shaped at 17,6% in FY16 compared to 18,9% in FY15, negatively affected primarily by the increased payout with margin expansions in the US, and the Netherlands partially mitigating the Gross profit margin shortfall. Overall, Gross Profit decreased slightly from 2015 levels (- 0,3%).

The Gross profit margin decline, was fully reversed though at EBITDA level, were EBITDA, from continuing operations, developed to €175,8m in FY16, posting an increase of 6,6% compared to FY15, in part due to cost containment and in part due to the non-recurring income in Australia (Victoria State Lawsuit successful settlement, 4Q16). On a yearly basis, EBITDA margin, from continuing operations, remained steady at 13,3%, showcasing operating profitability resilience as the Group fully absorbed a payout ratio increase of 3,5pps.

Earnings before Tax from continuing operations in FY16 were shaped at €4,8m compared to €47,9m in FY15, negatively affected by higher net financial costs mainly due to the refinancing and increased impairment/write-offs compared to 2015.

Net debt, as of 31 December 2016, developed to €494,9m increasing by €17,3m compared to the same period last year. In the 4th quarter Net Debt decreased by €38,9m driven by the Peru transaction proceeds.

Revenues from Operation contracts (licenses) increased by 5,8% mainly due to higher revenues in Bulgaria, Malta and Poland, partially counterbalanced by the performance of Azerbaijan, Jamaica, Argentina and Brazil. Sales from Management contracts posted an increase of 17,1% mainly driven by the performance of Turkey and Morocco. Revenues from HW sales and facilities management increased by 8,7% mainly due to increased revenues in the US and Australia, the effect was partially counterbalanced by the revenues in Argentina, an IT contract in Malaysia, and the revenues from the Hellenic Lotteries.

Key Gaming Markets performance

United States

In the U.S. the company has projects in twelve states. The revenues from the facilities management of lotteries substantially increased in 2016 due to the sale of terminals in Ohio, the largest Powerball jackpot in history and the successful launch of the renewed contract in the State of Montana. Moreover, at the beginning of 2017 the company successfully renewed the contract in the State of Idaho on better terms.

Turkey

In Turkey, Inteltek succeeded in increasing its revenue stream, despite the unstable political environment and the depreciation of the Turkish Lira. Inteltek capitalized on the Euro 2016 effect, as well as benefited by the constant effort of the electronic agents to support their further expansion by means of significant investments in technology and substantial marketing expenditure. The growth in the online market has been further capitalized from INTRALOT's other participation in Turkey, Bilyoner, one of the 6 electronic agents of the country and market leader. Bilyoner showcased a considerable y-o-y increase despite the political turmoil and currency depreciation as it capitalized on the hefty online market segment growth.

Azerbaijan

In Azerbaijan, where INTRALOT owns a strategic stake in Azerinteltek, sales in 2016 have proved significantly lower than those of 2015, due to the continuously worsening macroeconomic environment that negatively affected the gaming market in the country and the depreciation rate of the local currency. However, the upgrade of the sports betting product and the stricter control of the illegal market are expected to support Azerinteltek's growth in the forthcoming year.

Malta

In Malta, our subsidiary MALTCO Lotteries holds the license to manage all National Lottery games. During 2016, it registered an increase in revenue, due to the positive effect of Sports Betting (Euro 2016 effect), Keno and Numerical sales. However, the higher payout, especially in numerical games, led almost to the same level of profitability compared to 2015.

Bulgaria

In Bulgaria, the revenues of the subsidiary Eurofootball in 2016 have been significantly augmented. The Bulgarians continued to welcome with excitement the successfully launched (August 2015) Virtual Football game that increased the subsidiary's footprint in the market. Sports Betting BU also grew substantially, driven by the Euro 2016 and increased payout, and, along with the uplift in Racing BU resulted in a really strong sales performance (the highest since the founding of the company).

In 2016, our Bulgarian footprint was further strengthened by the acquisition of a strategic stake in Eurobet, a leading gaming company in Bulgaria, which offers to the Bulgarian market numerical games and scratch tickets through a network of 1.100 Points of sales countrywide.

Looking Ahead

The lottery industry experiences significant changes and is facing both increased challenges and a wealth of opportunities. Regulatory initiatives, market liberalization, technological convergence and omni-channel approach, new business models and the need to attract new customer demographics all set the pace of change and the basis of very interesting developments. In this environment, INTRALOT is well positioned to succeed, targeting to reap the fruits of its clear strategy and transformation initiatives in the imminent future. Targeted synergies and efficiencies, strong partnerships and our unique product portfolio are the drivers for growth. We anticipate all our efforts and activities to be translated into profit delivery to the shareholders of the parent and positive cash flows for the Company within the next years.

CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY

Scope

The information indicated below regarding the Corporate Responsibility program refers to:

  • the period 01/01/2015-31/12/2015 (unless indicated otherwise in certain points). Due to procedural reasons the release of the 2016 Corporate Responsibility Report will be made available by the end of H1 2017.
  • all activities of INTRALOT S.A. (referred as 'INTRALOT' or 'Company'), while further references to selected activities of other companies within the INTRALOT Group (referred as 'INTRALOT Group'

or 'Group') are presented (without being included in this scope), with the exception of Responsible Gaming, which refer to the entire INTRALOT Group.

Drawing from its corporate strategy of sustainable leadership in the gaming sector, INTRALOT's sustainability strategy is to create shared value for all its stakeholders through the generation of economic resources for good causes, responsible gaming operations, technology and product innovation that fosters transparency, the development of education and human capital in the communities where the company operates, and a deep sense of environmental responsibility.

Managing Corporate Responsibility

Integrating Corporate Responsibility within the organizational structure

From an organizational perspective, the Group Corporate Affairs Division is assigned to manage the issue of Corporate Responsibility, in order to streamline activities and facilitate the Company's responsible operation, at a strategic, organizational and operational level. INTRALOT's management structure related to Corporate Responsibility (which includes responsibility for economic, societal and environmental issues), is depicted

below:

Managing Corporate Responsibility

  • At Board level, the overall responsible is the Group Chief Executive Officer, who is the Chairman of the Executive Committee, with the leadership on Corporate Responsibility plan.
  • At director level the Group Director Corporate Affairs is responsible to organize the relevant activities, as well as to review the Group's Responsible Gaming program.
  • At operational level, the Head of Public Relations & Corporate Social Responsibility is responsible to guide, plan, implement and evaluate the Corporate Responsibility program, as well as cooperate with other departments.
  • The Corporate Affairs Division interacts with General Directors of Operations and other Divisions within the Company, at a local and global level, to facilitate respective practices implemented.

Material Issues

Recognizing Material Issues

In order to holistically examine issues that can or could affect its responsible operation and ensure that our social strategy focuses on the Material Issues, INTRALOT conducted a Materiality Analysis, structured around four stages:

    1. Identification of potential aspects, through which over 90 issues were considered by reviewing:
  • a) Current industry practices.
  • b) Future trends.
  • c) Relevant industry related analyses by international organizations, such as the RobecoSAM's Sustainability Yearbook for the 'Casinos & Gaming' sector.
  • d) Regulatory environment.
    1. Analysis of these issues in terms of associated Risk, according to the significance of the economic, social and environmental impacts that the Company's activities, products and operations either have or could have.
    1. Identification of Stakeholders' expectations, through the analysis of their views as a result of relevant surveys that have been conducted (e.g. Customer Survey) and the indirect input from the departments which interact with each Stakeholder group.
    1. Combination of the Risk analysis and Stakeholders' expectations, which resulted in defining the Material Issues that INTRALOT should focus on.

The Materiality Analysis, which were approved by the Group Corporate Affairs Director, depicts the Material Issues for 2015 in the grey shaded area of the below diagram:

Stakeholder Engagement

Interacting with Stakeholders

INTRALOT has a large number of internal and external Stakeholders, who can be defined as all those who are either affected by the Company's operations or are affecting its operations. Stakeholders increasingly require transparency and active involvement in issues, such as societal support and environmental protection. The Company intends to enhance its Stakeholder engagement program by expanding its participation in various business fora, such as the European Business Ethics Network and the Hellenic Business and Industry Federation's Sustainable Development Committee. In addition, INTRALOT is actively engaged with business initiatives of industry associations, such as the World Lottery Association's Responsible Gaming Programs and the European Lotteries initiatives.

Contribution to Local Communities

Supporting local communities we operate in and protecting the Environment we influence

A key element of INTRALOT's approach to society is to understand the expectations of people in local communities of operations and effectively contribute to their needs. The Company seeks to align its economic growth with support to society and strives to:

  • Support knowledge and technological know-how sharing to local communities.
  • Contribute to enhance the quality of life.
  • Implement programs to create value to different groups and accelerate social growth and prosperity.

Sharing Value

INTRALOT Group generated over €1 billion of shared value for its Stakeholders in 2015, increased by 10,6% compared to €916 million in 2014. At INTRALOT level, the Company generated €77 million of shared value in 2015 in Greece.

The Group generated approximately €5,9 billion shared value in the last 9 years, with €1 billion being in Greece.

ANALYSIS OF THE SHARING VALUE OF THE GROUP

Contributing to Society

INTRALOT is committed to contributing to the communities where it operates, as they provide the resources, infrastructure and markets that support its businesses operations. Therefore, the Company has launched the targeted social support program 'INTRALOT – We Care a Lot', in order to contribute to local communities, which included 13 activities in 2015, with a total investment of €43.300 in two main areas:

  • Advance education and human capital.
  • Support social welfare and human development.

Caring for the impact of operations

Local communities constitute an important Stakeholder of INTRALOT, as they are directly related with the Company and its activities. Therefore, the Company aims to identify its impacts on local communities and remain aware of its operations' effects related to the respect and protection of human rights. To this day, the Company has not identified any operations with significant actual or potential negative impacts on local communities.

It must be noted that within 2015:

  • INTRALOT's premises are accessible by people with disabilities.
  • There were no significant investment agreements and contracts with clauses on human rights.
  • There were no significant investments on infrastructure to provide a public service or good rather than for commercial purpose (e.g. road, school, water supply and power lines/facilities).
  • There were no accidents with significant impact on the local communities.
  • There were no complaints about impacts on society filed through formal grievance mechanisms and no fines or non-monetary sanctions for non-compliance with relevant laws and regulations were imposed by the respective authorities.

Environmental Sustainability

While environmental protection is a particularly important aspect for most industries, the gaming industry can be considered as of relatively low impact to the environment. Most of the industry's impact can be attributed to the use of various energy sources and natural resources for business operations, as well as the consumption of materials for hardware production and product packaging. However, improving its environmental performance is a challenge that the Company takes very seriously. Therefore, INTRALOT:

  • Complies with national and international environmental regulations and standards.
  • Has applied several standards and requirements of ISO 14001 to its environmental management system.
  • Has assigned TUV NORD Group to handle all certifications for all certified organizational units, which are audited annually for each standard and re-certified usually every three years from initial certification to manufacture products according to international safety rules and practices.
  • Has adopted eco-friendly processes, in order to address environmental issues throughout its products and services' life cycle, such as:
  • Produce energy efficient and durable products.
  • Design products without any hazardous and restricted materials.
  • Increase the use of recyclable materials.
  • Takes into consideration relevant environmental impact assessments.

Reducing materials

Materials consumption at INTRALOT is a direct result of its operational needs (i.e. paper), according to the following classification. It must be noted that the Company has reduced its paper and toner consumption to produce bid documents and distribute press monitoring hard copies compared to previous years, as it only uses central printers with scanning and electronic dissemination of copies.

It must be noted that manufacturing of gaming terminals complies with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive 2002/95/EC, which limits or bans specific substances in new electronic and electric equipment (e.g. lead, cadmium, PBB, mercury, hexavalent chromium, PBDE flame retardants). At the same time, INTRALOT requires that its suppliers located in Europe comply with the RoHS Directive, as well as the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive 2002/96/EC.

Recycling materials

In order to further reduce its environmental footprint, INTRALOT follows the relevant legislative framework concerning waste disposal and does not directly send any waste to landfills. Instead, all waste is systematically collected and sent to a licensed recycling partner, who handles waste disposal in an appropriate and environmentally friendlier manner.

At the moment, INTRALOT does not use recycled or FSC certified paper or any other recycled materials. It must be noted that the Company is responsible to remove hazardous waste included in hardware produced or traded by INTRALOT according to environmental procedures in cases of leased equipment that is removed after the expiration of the agreement.

Recycling bins: In order to collect and convert waste materials into reusable objects (a practice that only prevents waste of potentially useful materials, but also reduces the consumption of raw materials and energy), INTRALOT has placed recycling bins, which include:

  • Green recycling bins for paper
  • Blue recycling bins for aluminum cans
  • Clear recycling bin for batteries

Paper recycled increased by 10%

Electronic equipment: The Company ensures that telecommunication devices and IT equipment (such as personal computers and mobile phones) are re-used if they are in working condition, which are re-assigned to another user. In case they are not in a condition to be re-used, certain parts and components are stored, in order to be retained as spares, such as memory discs, batteries and hard discs.

RECYCLING MATERIALS

Monitoring water consumption

Water scarcity is highlighted as an extremely important environmental aspect which requires urgent action, as the needs and demand for this precious resource have been intensified during the last years. INTRALOT is aware of its relative scarcity and therefore strives to reduce water consumption, where feasible.

Analyzing energy impact

Although INTRALOT's operations are not energy intensive, the Company consciously seeks to reduce energy consumption, which is linked to global climate change. The main sources of its energy consumption are electricity (entirely purchased from the Public Power Corporation – Hellas) and heating petrol.

Monitoring greenhouse gas emissions

Direct and indirect energy consumption unavoidably lead to greenhouse gas emissions. Despite the fact that INTRALOT operates in a non-energy intensive industry with limited greenhouse gas emissions compared to other industries, the Company systematically measures and reports its greenhouse gas emissions due to its extensive operations and the issue's importance worldwide.

Air Travel

INTRALOT strives to reduce the impact of its business operations on climate change. Because the climate impact of air transportation is currently not sufficiently regulated by national or international laws, the Company voluntarily commits to limit air travel to the minimum necessary and minimize the number of travelled air miles.

Responsible Gaming

Responsible Gaming is a concept according to which gaming operators, technology and software suppliers and associated service providers need to ensure that their products and services provide a fair and safe gaming experience that enables players to be protected from the adverse consequences of gaming. Whether players buy a lottery or scratch ticket, place their bets, play bingo or on a gaming machine or casino game, players have to view their activity as a form of entertainment in a balanced way. Thus, Responsible Gaming means that operators must aim to keep their games and gaming services profitable and reliable while, at the same time, ensure that all steps are taken to eliminate excessive behavior and protect vulnerable groups.

Besides being an ethical and a regulatory requirement, Responsible Gaming is a business imperative for gaming companies that protects the regulated business reputation and market share and has gained increased importance for society and Stakeholders. Companies are required to comply with applicable legal and regulatory Responsible Gaming frameworks and implement specific protection measures and procedures.

In 2015, INTRALOT S.A. was granted the Certificate of alignment with the criteria set in the WLA Responsible Gaming Certification Standards for Associate members, following an external audit performed by TÜV NORD, the WLA approved assessor, which completed an in-depth independent assessment of INTRALOT's products and services and Responsible Gaming practices communicated to lottery customers. INTRALOT Group recognizes that a Responsible Gaming approach has to incorporate and govern all business activities and operations, in order to safeguard the interests of players and the community in general. Therefore, the Group implements a series of projects and activities to guarantee the development of Responsible Gaming standards, according to the principles and framework of the WLA, both as a licensed gaming operator and a technology provider.

All employees have been informed about Responsible Gaming principles and policies

133 customer employees were trained on Responsible Gaming, for a total duration of 266 training hours

Ethics – Code of Conduct

Integrating responsibility in our everyday operations

The importance of responsible operation has been embedded in the way INTRALOT is managed, as the Company has adopted internal rules and regulations to govern its daily operations, such as the Internal Regulation Charter, the Code of Corporate Governance and the Code of Conduct, while at the same time, INTRALOT is committed to comply with the respective legislation in all countries of operations.

Internal Regulation Charter: The Company's Internal Regulation Charter regulates the structure of INTRALOT's Divisions, their responsibilities and the relationship with each other and with INTRALOT's management.

The Code is aligned with the Principles of OECD Corporate Governance as published in 2004 and the Code of Corporate Governance for the Listed Companies of the Hellenic Federation of Enterprises (SEV), as well as generally accepted corporate governance principles applied by European Union countries. The Code is posted on the corporate website (www.intralot.com) and its main goals are:

  • To define corporate governance practices.
  • To assure transparency in its operations and management procedures.
  • To improve information sharing with shareholders.
  • To comply with the requirements of the relevant legislation and regulatory framework.

The Code of Conduct has been communicated to all the employees

Code of Conduct: The Company's Code of Conduct defines the way its managers and employees behave, maintain respect of laws and regulations and foster relationships of trust with Stakeholders, business partners and other third parties and constitutes a statement of its principles on the following issues:

  • Purpose.
  • International Business Conduct.
  • Information Security Policy Compliance.

There were no reports or complaints for violations of the Code of Conduct

It must be noted that:

  • The Code of Conduct is available on the corporate intranet portal (where all employees have access) and has been communicated to all employees, including all new employees who receive the Code via email.
  • The Code of Conduct is incorporated in all employee contracts and their signature is considered as acknowledgement and acceptance of the Code's principles and provisions.
  • All managers and employees despite contract type (permanent and temporary) and hierarchical level of INTRALOT Group, its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates are required to comply with the Code of Conduct at all times and everyone is expected to behave and conduct his/her business in line with this Code without any exception.
  • In case there are any questions related to the Code of Conduct, employees can direct them to the Human Resources Department.
  • In case anyone suspects that they have or may have a conflict of interest or something that others could reasonably perceive as a conflict of interest, they must report it to their Supervisor or their Director, who will discuss with the employee to determine whether he/she actually has a conflict of interest and, if so, how to best address it. No such cases have been reported within 2015.

HUMAN RESOURCES

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Enterprise Risk Management

The Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Framework documents the good practices adopted by the INTRALOT Group in order to identify, assess and manage risks related to the achievement of its business objectives.

INTRALOT ERM targets at the assurance of stakeholder and shareholder trust through the appropriate and continuous balancing of risk and value.

INTRALOT ERM follows a holistic approach for taking into account all parameters that drive the execution of INTRALOT Group Strategy, including INTRALOT's financial health, operations, people, technology, compliance, products and reputation.

ERM provides the means to continuously monitor risk, align it with the changing internal and external parameters and manage it according to the defined corporate risk appetite.

The Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Framework is designed according to the specifications of COSO (Committee of Sponsorship Organizations of the Treadway Commission) and ISACA (COBIT for RISK). It is a holistic strategic framework taking into account risks related to the business objectives of INTRALOT GROUP.

The framework incorporates the following components:

  1. Objective setting: Objectives are clearly defined in order to be used as a reference point for the identification of risks. A process is in place for setting objectives that align with INTRALOT's mission and are consistent with the corporate risk appetite.

  2. Risk assessment: Risks are analyzed in relation to the objectives and by determining the likelihood of and impact from the realization of an adverse event.

  3. Risk response: Management selects risk responses – avoiding, accepting, reducing, or sharing risk – developing a set of actions to align risks with the entity's risk tolerances and risk appetite.

  4. Event identification: Internal and external events affecting the achievement of INTRALOT objectives are identified.

  5. Internal environment: The internal environment sets the basis for how risk is viewed and addressed by people, including risk management philosophy and risk appetite, integrity and ethical values, and the environment in which they operate.

  6. Control activities: Policies, procedures, strategies and action plans in general are established and implemented to help ensure the risk responses are effectively carried out.

  7. Information and communication: Relevant information is identified, captured, and communicated in a form and time frame that enable people to carry out their responsibilities.

  8. Monitoring: Risk is monitored and modifications made as necessary. Monitoring is accomplished through ongoing management activities, separate evaluations, or both.

Description of significant risks and uncertainties

FINANCIAL RISKS

The Group's international activities create several financial risks in the Group's operation, due to constant changes in the global financial environment. The Group beyond the traditional risks of liquidity risk and credit risk also faces market risk. The most significant of these risks are currency risk and interest rate risk. The risk management program is a dynamic process that is constantly evolving and adapted according to market conditions and aims to minimize potential negative impact on financial results. The basic risk management policies are set by the Group Management. The risk management policy is implemented by the Treasury Department of the Group which operates under specific guidelines approved by management.

Credit risk

The Group does not have significant credit risk concentration because of the wide dispersion of its customers and the fact that credit limits are set through signed contracts. The maximum exposure of credit risk amounts to the aggregate values presented in the balance sheet. In order to minimize the potential credit risk exposure arising from cash and cash equivalents, the Group sets limits regarding the amount of credit exposure to any financial institution. Moreover, in order to secure its transactions even more, the Group adopted an internal rating system, regarding credit rating evaluation, using the relevant financial indices.

Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. The Group took measures to obtain certain policies to monitor the liquidity in order to hold liquid assets that can cover Group's liabilities.

Further analysis of the maturity of the financial liabilities of the Group is provided in note 2.33 of the annual financial statements.

Market Risk

1) Foreign Exchange risk

Fluctuations in exchange rates can have significant effects on the Group's currency positions. Group transactions are carried out in more than one currency and therefore there is a high exposure in foreign exchange rate fluctuations against the euro, which is the main underlying economic currency. On the other hand, the Group's activity abroad also helps to create a significant advantage in foreign exchange risk management, due to the diversification in the currency portfolio. This kind of risk mainly results from commercial transactions in foreign currency as well as investments in foreign entities. For managing this type of risk, the Group enters into derivative financial instruments with various financial institutions. The Group's policy regarding the foreign exchange risk concerns not only the parent company but also the Group's subsidiaries.

Further analysis of the sensitivity analysis on foreign exchange variations and currency hedging derivatives is provided in note 2.33 of the annual financial statements.

2) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group's activities are closely linked to interest rates because of investment and long and short term borrowings. To manage this risk category, the Group uses financial hedging instruments in order to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk. The Group's policy on managing its exposure to interest rate risk affects not only the parent company but also its subsidiaries for the loans concluded in euros or local currency.

The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to long-term borrowings of the Group's with floating rate. The Group also manages interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of loans with fixed and floating rate borrowings. On December 31, 2016, taking into account the impact of financial hedging products, approximately 75% of the Group's borrowings are at a fixed rate (2015: 71%). As a result, the impact of interest rate fluctuations in operating results and cash flows of the Group's operating activities is small.

Further analysis of the sensitivity analysis of the Group's loans to interest rate changes is provided in note 2.33 of the annual financial statements.

OPERATING RISKS

Winners' payouts in sports betting

INTRALOT is one of the largest sports betting operator worldwide. The winners' payout in sports betting may fluctuate in the short-term since it depends on the outcome of the events. The fluctuation of the payout may affect the financial results of INTRALOT since it represents a significant cost element for the Company.

Gaming sector and economic activity

The gaming market is affected by the economic cycles since lottery products are consumer products. However, the gaming sector is more resilient than other sectors of the economy in periods of economic crisis. Specifically, during an economic downturn, frequent draw games (like KENO or VLTs) are most likely to present a reduction in revenues, while lotto type games are less affected. With its international expansion, INTRALOT has achieved significant diversification and has reduced its dependency on the performance of individual markets and economies.

Gaming Taxation

The financial crisis has increased the budget deficits of many countries. The increase of the taxation of lottery games constitutes sometimes an easy, but not correct in our opinion, solution for the governments to finance these deficits. Nevertheless, such measures may affect INTRALOT's financial results.

Other Operating Risks

  • changes in government regulations and oversight in the jurisdictions in which we operate,
  • risks posed by illegal betting (loss of market share),
  • changes in consumer preferences,
  • increased competition in the gaming industry,
  • changes in market trends including technological changes and the changing technological demands and preferences of our customers,
  • non-renewal or termination of material contracts and licenses,
  • seasonality of sports schedules,
  • player fraud.

8. BoD or BoD member responsibility for the issuance of new shares or the purchase of own shares.

Intralot BoD is responsible for issuing new shares in the following cases:

a. According to article 5 § 2, 3 and 4 of the corporate Statute:

«2. Without prejudice to §3 hereof, following relevant authorization by the General Assembly, and the decision of the Board of Directors by a two third (2/3) majority, the Board of Directors is entitled to increase share capital in part or in whole by issuing new shares; the corresponding amount cannot exceed the capital paid-up at the date when the BoD was authorized. The above resolution of the General Assembly is subject to the publication obligations referred to in article 7b of the Codified Law 2190/20.

The above authorization of the BoD may be renewed by the General Assembly for an interval not exceeding five years for each renewal; its term starts upon termination of the previous 5-year interval.

3. Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous paragraph, if corporate reserves exceed one fourth (1/4) of the paid-up share capital, an increase of capital necessitates a resolution by the General Assembly extraordinary quorum and majority under article 15 hereof, and the relevant amendment of this article.

4. Increases of capital that are decided pursuant §2 hereof, do not constitute an amendment to the Statute.»

The above right has not been conferred to the corporate BoD.

b. In the cases referred to in article 13 § 13 of the Codified Law 2190/1920 (stock options right) and in accordance with the article 7 § 3 last quotation of Articles of Association (grant stock option rights).

In any case of increase of the share capital that is not made by contribution in kind or issue of bonds with a right of their conversion into shares, a right of preference on the whole new capital or bond loan is granted, in favor of the shareholders at the time of issue, in proportion to their participation in the existent share capital.

The right of preference is exercised within the deadline, which was determined by the company body that decided the increase. This deadline with the reservation of observing the deadline for capital payment, as it is provided for in article 11 of the Codified Law 2190/1920, cannot be less than fifteen (15) days. In the case of section 6, article 13 of the Codified Law 2190/1920, the deadline for the exercise of the right of preference does not begin before the resolution taken by the Board of Directors for the determination of the disposal price of the new shares. After the expiry of these deadlines, the shares that have not been undertaken according to the above are freely disposed by the Board of Directors of the company at a price not less than the price paid by the existent shareholders. In case that the company body that decided the increase of the share capital omitted to fix the deadline for the exercise of the right of preference, this deadline or its possible extension is fixed by the Board of Directors by its resolution within the time limits prescribed by article 11 of the Codified Law 2190/1920.

The invitation for the exercise of the right of preference, in which the deadline within which this right should be exercised should be also mentioned, is published on the company's initiative in the Issue of Societes Anonyme and Limited Liability Companies of the Official Gazette. With the reservation of section 6, article 13 of the Codified Law 2190/1920, the invitation and the notification of the deadline for the exercise of the right of preference, according to the above, may be omitted, should at the General Meeting shareholders be present who represented the whole share capital and be informed of the deadline set for the exercise of the right of preference or who have stated their decision for the exercise or not by them of the right of preference. The publication of the invitation may be replaced by registered "upon receipt" letter, should all shares be registered.

By a resolution of the general meeting taken pursuant to the provisions of sections 3 and 4, article 29 and section 2, article 31 of the Codified Law 2190/1920, the right of preference of section 7 of the Codified Law 2190/1920 may be restricted or abolished. In order to take this decision, the Board of Directors is obliged to submit to the general meeting a written report, in which the reasons that impose the restriction or abolishment of the right of preference are mentioned and in which the price proposed for the issue of the new shares is justified. The resolution of the general meeting falls under the formalities on publication of article 7b of the Codified Law 2190/1920. There is no exclusion from the right of preference according to the meaning of this paragraph, when the shares are undertaken by credit institutions or enterprises of rendering investment services, which have the right to accept securities for custody, in order to be offered

to the shareholders pursuant to section 7 of the Codified Law 2190/1920. Moreover, there is no exclusion from the right of preference, when the capital increase aims at the staff participation in the company's capital according to the presidential decree 30/1988 (Official Gazette 13 A').

The capital may be increased partly by contributions in cash and partly by contributions in kind. In this case, a provision of the body that decides the increase, according to which the shareholders that contribute in kind do not participate also in the increase by contributions in cash, does not constitute exclusion of the right of preference. If the proportion of the value of the contributions in kind, in relation to the total increase, is at least the same with the proportion of the participation in the share capital of the shareholders who proceed to these contributions. In case of increase of the share capital by contributions partly in cash and partly in kind, the value of the contributions in kind should have been assessed pursuant to articles 9 and 9a of the Codified Law 2190/1920 before taking the relevant decision.

By a resolution of the general meeting taken pursuant to the provisions of sections 3 and 4, article 29 and section 2, article 31 of the Codified Law 2190/1920, a program can be set for share disposition to the members of the Board of Directors and the staff of the company, as well as of the associated with it companies according to the meaning of section 5, article 42e of the Codified Law 2190/1920, in the form of option for acquiring shares, according to the conditions of this resolution, a summary of which falls under the formalities of publication of article 7b of the Codified Law 2190/1920. Persons that render to the company services on a regular basis may be also appointed as beneficiaries. The nominal value of the shares disposed according to this paragraph cannot exceed totally the one tenth (1/10) of the capital, which is paid up on the date of the resolution of the general meeting. The resolution of the general meeting provides for if for the satisfaction of the right of preference the company will proceed to increase of its share capital or if it will use shares that it acquires or has acquired pursuant to article 16 of the Codified Law 2190/1920. In any case, the resolution of the general meeting should determine the maximum number of shares that may be acquired or issued, if the beneficiaries exercise the above right, the price and conditions of share disposition to the beneficiaries, the beneficiaries or their classes and the method of determination of the acquisition price, with the reservation of section 2, article 14 of the Codified Law 2190/1920, the program duration as well as any other relevant condition. By the same resolution of the general meeting, the determination of the beneficiaries or their classes may be assigned to the Board of Directors as well as the way of exercising the right and any other condition of the share disposition program. The Board of Directors, according to the program conditions, issues to the beneficiaries who exercised their right certificates of entitlement to share acquisition and, per calendar quarter at most delivers the shares already issued or issues and delivers the shares to the above beneficiaries, increasing the share capital of the company, and it certifies the capital increase. The resolution of the Board of Directors for the certification of payment of capital increase is taken per calendar quarter, notwithstanding those prescribed in article 11 of the Codified Law 2190/1920. These increases of the share capital do not constitute modifications of the articles of association, and sections 7 to 11 of the article 13 of the Codified Law 2190/1920 do not apply on these. The Board of Directors is obliged during the last month of the corporate year, within which capital increases took place, according to those prescribed above, to adjust by its resolution the article of the articles of association on capital, so that the capital amount be provided for, as it resulted following above increases, observing the formalities on publication of article 7 b of the Codified Law 2190/1920.

The general meeting, by its resolution taken pursuant to the provisions of sections 3 and 4, article 29 and section 2, article 31 of the Codified Law 2190/1920 and fallen under the formalities on publication of article 7b of the Codified Law 2190/1920, may authorize the Board of Directors to set a share disposition program according to the previous paragraph, possibly increasing the share capital and taking all other relevant decisions. This authorization is valid for five (5) years, unless the general meeting determines a shorter period of its validity and it is independent of the powers of the Board of Directors of section 1, article 13 of the Codified Law 2190/1920. The resolution of the Board of Directors is taken under the conditions of section 1, article 13 of the Codified Law 2190/1920 and under the restrictions of section 13, article 13 of the Codified Law 2190/1920.

  • The Board of Directors monitor and regularly review the implementation of corporate strategy. At the same time, it should regularly review the main risks faced by the company and the effectiveness of the internal audit system regarding the management of said risks. The review should comprise all vital audits, including financial and operational audits, compliance testing and the monitoring of risk management systems. The Board of Directors, through the Audit Committee, also develop direct and regular contact with external and internal auditors in order to receive regular updates from the latter in relation to the proper operation of the control system.

  • Meets with the Auditor (either in the presence of Management or not) to discuss the aforementioned matters, potential disputes which may arise between the Auditor and Management of the Company, and any significant changes which may arise in the audit plan.
  • Proposes the appointment, replacement and termination of the Internal Auditor to the Board of Directors and is responsible for the periodic evaluation of the Internal Auditor's performance.
  • Receives and examines the periodic reports of the internal audit and supervises the progress of recommendations made by the Internal Auditor and adopted by Management as expressed in the respective reports.
  • Examines transparency matters pertaining to the procedures connected to the awarding and execution of public tenders in accordance with current legislation while aiming to ensure transparency.
  • Controls the transactions of the subsidiaries and related corporations as stipulated in article 42 of Law 2190/1920 in Greece and abroad as regards the interests and activities of the group of the Company.
  • Proposes the appointment of a person as responsible for the whistleblowing policy of the Company, determines the responsibilities and any remuneration.

The Financial Committee, which is responsible for the financial management of the Company, is a subcommittee of the Audit and Compliance Committee. More particularly, the Financial Committee is comprised of:

the Chief Financial Officer, the Director of Finance, the Accounting Director, the Subsidiaries and Business Development Director and other executives within the finance department as deemed necessary and recommends to the Audit and Compliance Committee and/or directly to the Board of Directors as follows:

a. To manage the Group's exposure to risk associated with interest rate fluctuations while taking into account the ratio between floating and fixed interest rates for the total net indebtedness of the Group.

To manage the risk ratio of fixed-floating interest rates, the Company and/or its subsidiaries may enter into financial derivative agreements such as: Interest Rate Swaps, Interest Rate Caps, Interest Rate Collars and other financial products offered by Greek and international banks. The abovementioned products "swap" the variable interest rate with a fixed one.

b. To manage the Group's exposure to risks associated with currency exchange rate fluctuations by proposing financial derivative agreements such as: Forward Contracts, Options, Currency Swaps and other financial products offered by Greek and international banks.

The abovementioned products "lock" the exchange rates (spot rate) of various currencies. Decisions regarding the advisability and risk management strategy are undertaken by the Financial Committee depending on the coverage percentage and market conditions and circumstances.

c. To manage risks which may arise from socio-political changes through products available on the market such as: Event Swaps - when a political event compels a business/investment interruption abroad (for example following a political resolution to expel all foreign companies), or Credit Default Swaps - when the credit-worthiness of a county deteriorates.

The Financial Committee will recognise potential risk in a timely manner and will discern the most appropriate and effective methods to manage said risks with the use of suitable financial tools. The Committee then proposes that divisions and/or subsidiaries of the Company enter into agreements.

Β. Remuneration and Nomination Committee

Chairman: Konstantinos S. Kokkalis, Non-Executive member, Members: Sotirios N. Filos, Independent - non-executive member, Ioannis P. Tsoukaridis, Independent - non-executive member,

The Board of Directors of the Company assigns the responsibility of determining the employee remuneration policy of the Company to the Remuneration Committee. The Remuneration Committee recommends levels of remuneration to the Board of Directors for executives, managers and senior executives and concurrently regulates matters associated with the overall remuneration policy of the Company.

The Remuneration committee is comprised of three (3) members the majority of whom are non-executive members. The Chairman of the Remuneration Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors and must be a non-executive member. Should an executive be a member of the Remuneration Committee, this member may not attend discussions pertaining to his/her own remuneration.

The Remuneration Committee convenes at the invitation of its Chairman as deemed necessary and at least once per annum. The main responsibilities of the Remuneration Committee are as follows:

  • Proposes the remuneration policy of the Company including incentive bonuses, stock options and employee loyalty incentive programs.
  • Specifically for the remuneration of executives and managers, the Committee suggests an annual salary, performance related remuneration, pension plan and severance package.
  • Suggests the level and structure of senior executive remuneration. The remuneration of the internal auditor is discussed with the Audit and Compliance Committee.

  • Proposes the criteria and the overall framework for the selection of the members of the Board of Directors.

  • Suggests the procedures for determining the internal relations of the members of the Board of Directors.
  • Determines the criteria for selection of new directors and movements.

C. Management Committee

The Management Committee is comprised of the Chief Executive Officer and General Directors of the Company and examines all significant Company matters, formulates proposals and decides how to address them. The role of the Management Committee is also essential in the achievement of inter-company communication, the coordination of the departments' projects and the support of the Chief Executive Officer in both an informative and advisory capacity. The Management Committee provides an accurate and complete overview of the Company, emphasising critical operational issues, designs the development strategy of the Company and advances the implementation of major projects and objectives. The Management Committee may convene without the whole of its members on invitation of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Members of the Audit and Compliance Committee and senior executives may attend the meetings as deemed necessary.

Evaluation of the Board of Directors

The evaluation of the performance of the Board and its committees should take place at least every two (2) years in line with a clearly established procedure. The evaluation exercise should be led by the Chairman of the Board (or should the Chairman be a non-executive member, the Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors) and of every committee, while following the evaluation, the Chairman should act on the results of the performance evaluation by addressing the weaknesses of the Board.

VII. Diversity Policy

The Company hasn't adopted specific policy of diversity including gender balance. But in the Code of Conduct of the Company is referred that INTRALOT is committed to the policy of equal employment opportunity for all employees and candidates in accordance with the appropriate employment laws. The procedures for hiring and evaluating candidates and employees are based on their respective qualifications, skills and performance. Additionally, both as a matter of law and common decency, each employee of INTRALOT is entitled to pursue his or her employment free of unlawful discrimination and harassment with regards to sex, race, color, nationality, ancestry, citizenship, sexual orientation, religion, age, physical of mental disability, medical condition or marital status.

SERVICES»

Report on the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements of the Company "INTRALOT S.A. INTEGRATED LOTTERY SYSTEMS AND SERVICES", which comprise the separate and consolidated statement of financial position as of 31 December 2016, the separate and consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, as well as a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management's Responsibility for the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these separate and consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union and for such internal controls as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of separate and consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these separate and consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing that have been incorporated into Greek legislation (G.G./B'/2848/23.10.2012). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate and consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the separate and consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the separate and consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the separate and consolidated financial statements 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 entity's system of internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the separate and consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company "INTRALOT S.A. INTEGRATED LOTTERY SYSTEMS AND SERVICES", and its subsidiaries as of 31 December 2016, and of their financial performance and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2.1.1 Basis of preparation of the Financial Statements

The attached financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the available-forsale financial assets and the derivative financial instruments that are measured at fair value, or at cost if the difference is not a significant amount, and on condition that the Company and the Group would continue as a going concern. The attached financial statements are presented in Euros and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand (€'000) except if indicated otherwise.

2.1.2 Statement of compliance

These financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2016 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (I.F.R.S.), including the International Accounting Standards (IAS) and Interpretations issued by International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), that have been endorsed by the European Union as of December 31, 2016.

2.1.3 Financial Statements

INTRALOT keeps its accounting books and records and prepares its financial statements in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) Law 4308/2014 chap. 2, 3 & 4 and current tax regulations and issues its financial statements in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

INTRALOT's Greek subsidiaries keep their accounting books and records and prepare their financial statements in accordance with GAS (L.4308/2014), the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and current tax regulations. INTRALOT's foreign subsidiaries keep their accounting books and records and prepare their financial statements in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations in their respective countries. For the purpose of the consolidated financial statements, Group entities' financial statements are adjusted and prepared in relation to the requirements of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

2.1.4 Changes in accounting policies

For the preparation of the financial statements of period ended December 31, 2016, the accounting policies adopted are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the most recent annual financial statements (December 31, 2015), except for the below mentioned adoption of new standards and interpretations applicable for fiscal periods beginning at January 1, 2016.

Standards and Interpretations compulsory for the fiscal year 2016

New standards, amendments of published standards and interpretations mandatory for accounting periods beginning on 1st January 2016. The Group's assessment of the impact of these new and amended standards and interpretations is set out below.

IFRS 14 "Regulatory Deferral Accounts" (interim Standard)

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. The European Commission has decided not to launch the endorsement process of this interim standard and to wait for the final standard.

In January 2014, the IASB issued an interim Standard, IFRS 14 "Regulatory Deferral Accounts". The aim of this interim Standard is to enhance the comparability of financial reporting by entities that are engaged in rateregulated activities. Many countries have industry sectors that are subject to rate regulation, whereby governments regulate the supply and pricing of particular types of activity by private entities. This can include utilities such as gas, electricity and water. Rate regulation can have a significant impact on the timing and amount of an entity's revenue. IFRS does not provide any specific guidance for rate-regulated activities. The IASB has a project to consider the broad issues of rate regulation and plans to publish a Discussion Paper on this subject. Pending the outcome of this comprehensive Rate-regulated Activities project, the IASB decided to develop IFRS 14 as an interim measure. IFRS 14 permits first-time adopters to continue to recognise amounts related to rate regulation in accordance with their previous GAAP requirements when they adopt IFRS. However, to enhance comparability with entities that already apply IFRS and do not recognise such amounts, the Standard requires that the effect of rate regulation must be presented separately from other items. An entity that already presents IFRS financial statements is not eligible to apply the Standard. These amendments do not affect Group financial statements and have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

IAS 19 (Amendment) "Employee Benefits"

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No.2015/29 of 17th December 2014, L 5/11 -9/1/2015)

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st February 2015. Earlier application is permitted.

In November 2013 the IASB issued narrow scope amendments in IAS 19 "Employee Benefits". The narrow scope amendments apply to contributions from employees or third parties to defined benefit plans. The objective of the amendments is to simplify the accounting for contributions that are independent of the number of years of employee service, for example, employee contributions that are calculated according to a fixed percentage of salary. These amendments do not affect Group financial statements.

IAS 16 (Amendment) "Property, Plant and Equipment" and IAS 38 (Amendment) "Intangible Assets"

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No. 2015/2231 of 2nd December 2015, L 317/19 -3/12/2015)

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2016. Earlier application is permitted.

In May 2014, the IASB published amendments to IAS 16 "Property, Plant and Equipment" and IAS 38 "Intangible Assets". IAS 16 and IAS 38 both establish the principle for the basis of depreciation and amortization as being the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits of an asset. The IASB has clarified that the use of revenue-based methods to calculate the depreciation of an asset is not appropriate because revenue generated by an activity that includes the use of an asset generally reflects factors other than the consumption of the economic benefits embodied in the asset. The IASB also clarified that revenue is generally presumed to be an inappropriate basis for measuring the consumption of the economic benefits embodied in an intangible asset. This presumption, however, can be rebutted in certain limited circumstances. These amendments do not affect Group financial statements.

IAS 16 (Amendment) "Property, Plant and Equipment" and IAS 41 (Amendment) "Agriculture"

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No. 2015/2113 of 23rd November 2015, L 306/7 -24/11/2015)

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. In June 2014, the IASB published amendments that change the financial reporting for bearer plants. The IASB decided that bearer plants should be accounted for in the same way as property, plant and equipment in IAS 16 "Property, Plant and Equipment", because their operation is similar to that of manufacturing. Consequently, the amendments include them within the scope of IAS 16, instead of IAS 41. These amendments do not affect Group financial statements.

IFRS 11 (Amendment) "Joint Arrangements"

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No. 2015/2173 of 24th November 2015, L 307/11 -25/11/2015)

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. In May 2014, the IASB published amendments to IFRS 11 "Joint Arrangements". IFRS 11 addresses the accounting for interests in joint ventures and joint operations and adds new guidance on how to account for the acquisition of an interest in a joint operation that constitutes a business. The amendments specify the appropriate accounting treatment for such acquisitions. These amendments do not affect Group financial statements.

IAS 27 (Amendment) "Separate Financial Statements"

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No. 2015/2441 of 18th December 2015, L 336/49 -23/12/2015)

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. In August 2014, the IASB published amendments to IAS 27 "Separate Financial Statements". The amendments to IAS 27 will allow entities to use the equity method to account for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates in their separate financial statements. Intralot SA will continue accounting, in its separate financial statements, for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates either at cost or in accordance with IFRS 9.

IFRS 10, IFRS 12 & IAS 28 (Amendments) "Investment Entities: Applying the Consolidation Exception"

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No. 2016/1703 of 22nd September 2016, L 257/1 -23/9/2016)

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. In December 2014, the IASB published amendments to IFRS 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements", IFRS 12 "Disclosure of Interests in other entities" and IAS 28 "Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures". The

amendments introduce clarifications to the requirements when accounting for investment entities. The amendments also provide relief in particular circumstances, which will reduce the costs of applying the Standards. These amendments do not affect Group financial statements.

IAS 1 (Amendment) "Presentation of Financial Statements"

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No. 2015/2406 of 18th December 2015, L 333/97 -19/12/2015)

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. In December 2014, the IASB published amendments to IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements". The amendments are designed to further encourage companies to apply professional judgement in determining what information to disclose in their financial statements. For example, the amendments make clear that materiality applies to the whole of financial statements and that the inclusion of immaterial information can inhibit the usefulness of financial disclosures. Furthermore, the amendments clarify that companies should use professional judgement in determining where and in what order information is presented in the financial disclosures. The Group has taken into account the amendments during the preparation of its financial statements.

Amendments that regard part of the annual improvement program of IASB (International Accounting Standards Board)

IASB in its annual improvement program published in December 2013, a Cycle of narrow scope amendments to existing Standards. The amendments hold for the annual fiscal periods beginning on or after the 1st of February, 2015. The below amendments will not have significant effect on the Group's financial statements.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No.2015/28 of 17th December 2014, L 5/1 -9/1/2015)

IFRS 2 "Share-based Payment"

Definitions of "vesting conditions" and "market conditions" are amended and the definitions of "performance conditions" and "service conditions" are added (previously were part of the "vesting conditions" definition).

IFRS 3 "Business Combinations"

The amendment clarifies that the contingent consideration that is classified as financial asset or liability shall be measured at fair value at each reporting date.

IFRS 8 "Operating Segments"

The amendment requires that an entity shall disclose the judgements made by the management in applying the aggregation criteria in operating segments. It also clarifies that the entity shall provide reconciliations of the total reportable segments' assets to the entity's assets only if the segments assets are reported regularly.

IFRS 13 "Fair Value Measurement"

The amendment clarifies that the issue of IFRS 13 and the amendments of IFRS 9 and IAS 39 did not result in the deletion of the ability to measure short-term receivables and payables with no stated interest rate at invoice amounts without discounting, when the effect of not discounting is immaterial.

IAS 16 "Property, Plant and Equipment"

The amendment clarifies that when an item of property, plant and equipment is revalued, the gross carrying amount is adjusted in a manner that is consistent with revaluation of the carrying amount of the asset and the accumulated depreciation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset.

IAS 24 "Related Party Disclosures"

The amendment clarifies that the entity, or any member of a group of which is part, provides "key management personnel" services to the reporting entity or to the parent of the reporting entity, is a related party to the reporting entity.

IAS 38 "Intangible Assets"

The amendment clarifies that when an intangible asset is revalued, the gross carrying amount is adjusted in a manner that is consistent with revaluation of the carrying amount of the asset and the accumulated depreciation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset.

Also, IASB in its annual improvement program published in September 2014, one new Cycle of narrow scope amendments to existing Standards. The amendments hold for the annual fiscal periods beginning on or after the 1st of January, 2016. The below amendments will not have significant effect on the Group's financial statements.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No. 2015/2343 of 15th December 2015, L 330/20 -16/12/2015)

IFRS 5 "Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations"

The amendment clarifies the accounting for a change in a disposal plan from a plan to sell a non-current asset (or disposal group) to a plan to distribute a non-current asset (or disposal group), and provides guidance in IFRS 5 for the discontinuation of held for distribution accounting.

IFRS 7 "Financial Instruments: Disclosure"

The amendment clarifies how an entity should apply the guidance in paragraph 42C of IFRS 7 to a servicing contract in order to decide whether a servicing contract is "continuing involvement" for the purposes of applying the disclosure requirements in paragraphs 42E–42H of IFRS 7.

IAS 19 "Employee Benefits"

The amendment clarifies that for the determination of the rate used to discount post-employment benefit obligations, the depth of the market for high quality corporate bonds should be assessed at the currency level.

IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting"

The amendment clarifies the meaning of disclosure of information "elsewhere in the interim financial report" in paragraph 16A of IAS 34 and requires the inclusion of a cross-reference from the interim financial statements to the location of this information.

Standards and Interpretations compulsory after December 31, 2016

The following new standards, amendments and IFRICs have been published but are in effect for the annual fiscal period beginning the 1st of January 2017 and have not been adopted from the Group earlier.

IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments"

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No. 2016/2067 of 22nd November 2016, L 323/1 - 29/11/2016)

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2018. Earlier application is permitted. In July 2014, the IASB completed the last phase of IAS 39 replacement by issuing IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments". The package of improvements introduced by IFRS 9 includes a logical model for classification and measurement, a single, forward-looking 'expected loss' impairment model and a substantially-reformed approach to hedge accounting.

Classification and Measurement

Classification determines how financial assets and financial liabilities are accounted for in financial statements and, in particular, how they are measured on an ongoing basis. IFRS 9 introduces a logical approach for the classification of financial assets, which is driven by cash flow characteristics and the business model in which an asset is held. This single, principle-based approach replaces existing rule-based requirements that are generally considered to be overly complex and difficult to apply. The new model also results in a single impairment model being applied to all financial instruments, thereby removing a source of complexity associated with previous accounting requirements.

Impairment

During the financial crisis, the delayed recognition of credit losses on loans (and other financial instruments) was identified as a weakness in existing accounting standards. As part of IFRS 9, the IASB has introduced a new, expected-loss impairment model that will require more timely recognition of expected credit losses. Specifically, the new Standard requires entities to account for expected credit losses from when financial instruments are first recognised and to recognise full lifetime expected losses on a more timely basis.

Hedge accounting

IFRS 9 introduces a substantially-reformed model for hedge accounting, with enhanced disclosures about risk management activity. The new model represents a significant overhaul of hedge accounting that aligns the accounting treatment with risk management activities, enabling entities to better reflect these activities in their financial statements. In addition, as a result of these changes, users of the financial statements will be provided with better information about risk management and the effect of hedge accounting on the financial statements.

Own credit

IFRS 9 also removes the volatility in profit or loss that was caused by changes in the credit risk of liabilities elected to be measured at fair value. This change in accounting means that gains caused by the deterioration of an entity's own credit risk on such liabilities are no longer recognised in profit or loss. Early application of this improvement to financial reporting, prior to any other changes in the accounting for financial instruments, is permitted by IFRS 9.

The Group is in the process of evaluating the effect of IFRS 9 on its financial statements, without having a final detailed impact assessment. A more detailed assessment of the new standard effects will be carried out during the next year. However the below estimation can be made:

Classification and Measurement

As for the financial assets held by the Group on 31/12/2016, is estimated that would likely continue to be measured on the same basis under the new standard and so no significant changes on financial assets classification and measurement are expected.

Impairment

The assessment made by the Group as for the impact of the new expected-loss impairment model is at early stages. However, application of this model may result in an earlier recognition of expected credit losses.

Hedge accounting

The assessment made by the Group as for the impact of the reformed model for hedge accounting is at early stages. However, application of this model is not expected to have a significant impact on the accounting treatment of hedging contracts usually performed by the Group.

Own credit

New standard is not expected to have any impact on the accounting treatment of the Group financial liabilities, since the Group does not have any financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, but only financial liabilities at amortized cost.

IFRS 7 (Amendment) "Financial Instruments: Disclosures"

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2018. Earlier application is permitted. On 16.12.2011 and on 19.11.2013, the IASB issued an amendment in IFRS 7, adding in the Standard disclosures related to the transition to IFRS 9. The amendment has not yet been endorsed by the European Union. The Group is in the process of evaluating the effect of the amendment on its financial statements.

IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers"

(COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No. 2016/1905 of 22nd September 2016, L 295/19 - 29/10/2016)

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2018. Earlier application is permitted. In May 2014, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), responsible for International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), responsible for US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP), jointly issued a converged Standard on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. The Standard will improve the financial reporting of revenue and improve comparability of the financial statements globally.

Revenue is a vital metric for users of financial statements and is used to assess a company's financial performance and prospects. However, the previous requirements of both IFRS and US GAAP were different and often resulted in different accounting for transactions that were economically similar. Furthermore, while revenue recognition requirements of IFRS lacked sufficient detail, the accounting requirements of US GAAP were considered to be overly prescriptive and conflicting in certain areas.

Responding to these challenges, the boards have developed new, fully converged requirements for the recognition of revenue in both IFRS and US GAAP—providing substantial enhancements to the quality and consistency of how revenue is reported while also improving comparability in the financial statements of companies reporting using IFRS and US GAAP.

This new Standard replaces IAS 18, IAS 11 and the Interpretations IFRIC 13, IFRIC 15, IFRIC 18 and SIC 31 that are related to revenue recognition. The core principle of the new Standard is for companies to recognise revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration (that is, payment) to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new Standard will also result in enhanced disclosures about revenue, provide guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively (for example, service revenue and contract modifications) and improve guidance for multiple-element arrangements.

The Group has made an initial assessment regarding the impact of the application of IFRS 15. Group revenue is classified into the following business activities:

a) Licensed operations (Game operation):

During fiscal year 2016 Group revenue from "Licensed operations" was 75% of total revenue from continuing operations. In this category, the Group has the full game operating license in a country. In the case of operating the game the Company undertakes the overall organization of the games provided. Currently, revenue recognition in this category occurs the moment that the player-customer pays the related consideration in order to participate in a game and equals the total amount received from the player-customer. The application of IFRS 15 is not expected to affect the recognition of revenue in this category.

b) Management contacts (Game management):

During fiscal year 2016 Group revenue from "Management contracts" was 9% of total revenue from continuing operations. The Group undertakes the provision of value added services, such as the design, organization and/ or management of games, advertising and sales promotion, establishment of sales network, risk management (for fixed odds games) e.t.c to organizations internationally. Group revenues mainly consist of a percentage of the turnover of the games to which the above services are provided, the size of which is contractually determined based on the market size, the type of services rendered, the duration of the contract and other parameters. Currently, revenue recognition occurs the moment that the player-customer pays the related consideration in order to participate in a game and equals to an amount calculated as a percentage on the total amount received by the lottery games organization from the player-customer. The application of IFRS 15 is not expected to affect the recognition of revenue in this category.

c) Technology (hardware and software) and support services (technical):

During fiscal year 2016 Group revenue from "Technology and support services" was 16% of total revenue from continuing operations.

i) Technology (hardware and software): This category includes the supply of hardware and software (gaming machines, central computer systems, gaming software, communication systems etc.) to Lotteries so that they can operate their on-line games. Revenue is recognized by the Company either as a direct sale of hardware and software or as operating lease or as finance lease for a predetermined time period according to the contract with the customer.

In the first case, currently the income from the sales of hardware and software (in a determined value) is recognized when the significant risks and rewards arising from the ownership are transferred to the buyer. The application of IFRS 15 is not expected to affect the recognition of revenue in this case, since the revenue recognition will occur at appoint of time when control of the technology (hardware and software) is transferred to the customer, generally on its delivery.

In the second case that consists income from operating lease, currently is defined per case either on straightline basis over the lease term or as a percentage on the Lottery Organization's gross turnover received by the player-customer (in this case income recognition occurs the moment that the player-customer places the related consideration in order to participate in a game). The application of IFRS 15 is not expected to affect the recognition of revenue in this case, since it is subject to the principles of IAS 17.

In the third case that consists income from finance lease, currently is defined using the net investment method (the difference between the gross amount of the receivable and its present value is registered as a deferred financial income). This method represents a constant periodic return, recognizing the revenue from the finance lease in the period's income statement during the lease term. The application of IFRS 15 is not expected to affect the recognition of revenue in this case, since it is subject to the principles of IAS 17.

ii) Support services (technical): This category includes the rendering of technical support services to Lotteries so that they can operate their on-line games. These services are sold either on their own in separate contracts with the customers or bundled together with the sale of technology (hardware and software) to customers. Currently, the Group accounts for the technology (hardware and software) and support services as separate deliverables of bundled sales and allocates consideration between these deliverables using the relative fair value approach. Revenue recognition related to support services occurs by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction, at the reporting date. Under IFRS 15, allocation will be made based on relative stand-alone selling prices. As a result, the allocation of the consideration and, consequently, the timing of the amount of revenue recognised in relation to these sales may be impacted. The Group has preliminarily assessed that the majority of support services are satisfied over time and consequently the Group would continue to recognise revenue for these service contracts/service components of bundled contracts over time rather than at a point of time.

Presentation and disclosure requirements

IFRS 15 provides presentation and disclosure requirements, which are more detailed than under current IFRS. The presentation requirements represent a significant change from current practice and significantly increases the volume of disclosures required in Group's financial statements. Many of the disclosure requirements in IFRS 15 are completely new. In 2016 the Group developed and started testing of appropriate systems, internal controls, policies and procedures necessary to collect and disclose the required information.

The Group will decide within the next year whether to apply the new standard retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or the cumulative effect at the date of initial application.

IFRS 15 (Amendment) "Revenue from Contracts with Customers"

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2018. Earlier application is permitted. In April 2016, the IASB issued amendments in IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" including clarifications about how IFRS 15 principles should be applied. They arise as a result of discussions of the Transition Resource Group (TRG). The TRG was set up jointly by the IASB and the US national standard-setter, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), to assist companies with implementing the new Standard. The amendments clarify how to:

identify a performance obligation (the promise to transfer a good or a service to a customer) in a contract;

  • determine whether a company is a principal (the provider of a good or service) or an agent (responsible for arranging for the good or service to be provided); and
  • determine whether the revenue from granting a license should be recognised at a point in time or over time.

In addition to the clarifications, the amendments include two additional reliefs to reduce cost and complexity for a company when it first applies the new Standard.

The Group will assess the impact of these amendments on its financial statements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

IFRS 16 "Leases"

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2019. Earlier application is permitted if IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" has also been applied.

In January 2016, the IASB issued a new accounting Standard, called IFRS 16 "Leases" that replaces IAS 17 "Leases", and related Interpretations. IFRS 16 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract, i.e. the customer ('lessee') and the supplier ('lessor').

As for lessee, IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases as is required by IAS 17 and, instead, introduces a single lessee accounting model. Applying that model, a lessee is required to recognize:

(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.

As for lessor, IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently.

The new accounting standard will affect the accounting treatment of the operating leases of the Group as a lessee. On 31/12/2016 the Group had commitments from non-cancellable operating leases amounting to €19.080 thousand (note 2.32). However, the Group has not yet determined to what extent these commitments will result in the recognition of liabilities for future payments, and how the new standard application will affect income statement as well as the classification of cash flows of the Group. Some of the above commitments may be exempted from the requirements of the new standard since they not meet criteria to qualify as leases or covered by the exception for short-term or/and low-value leases.

A more detailed assessment of the new standard effects will be carried out during the next year.

The new standard has not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

IAS 7 (Amendment) "Statement of Cash Flows"

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2017. Earlier application is permitted. In January 2016 the IASB issued amendments in IAS 7 "Statement of Cash Flows" about improvements to disclosures. These disclosures require companies to provide information about changes in their financing liabilities arising from financing activities, including changes from cash flows and non-cash changes (such as foreign exchange gains or losses).

The Group will assess the impact of the amendment on its financial statements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

IAS 12 (Amendment) "Income Taxes"

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2017. Earlier application is permitted. In January 2016 the IASB issued amendments in IAS 12 "Income Taxes" about Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses, clarifying how to account for deferred tax assets related to debt instruments measured at fair value to address diversity in practice.

The Group will assess the impact of the amendment on its financial statements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

IFRS 10 & IAS 28 (Amendments) "Sale or contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture"

In September 2014, the IASB announced that the amendments apply to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2016. In December 2015 it was announced that application is indefinitely deferred. Earlier application is permitted.

In September 2014, the IASB published amendments to IFRS 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements" and IAS 28 "Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures". The amendments address an acknowledged inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and those in IAS 28 (2011), 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 recognised when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary. The Group will assess the impact of the amendment on its financial statements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

IFRS 2 (Amendment) "Share-based Payment"

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2018. Earlier application is permitted. In June 2016 the IASB issued amendments in IFRS 2 "Share-based Payment", clarifying how to account for certain types of share-based payment transactions. The amendments, which were developed through the IFRS Interpretations Committee, provide requirements on the accounting for:

  • a. the effects of vesting and non-vesting conditions on the measurement of cash-settled share-based payments;
  • b. share-based payment transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations; and
  • c. a modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash-settled to equity-settled.

The Group will assess the impact of the amendment on its financial statements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

IFRS 4 (Amendment) "Insurance Contracts"

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2018.

In September 2016 the IASB issued amendments in IFRS 4 "Insurance Contracts", addressing concerns arising from implementing the new financial instruments Standard, IFRS 9, before implementing the replacement

Standard that the IASB is developing for IFRS 4. These concerns include temporary volatility in reported results.

The amendments introduce two approaches: an overlay approach and a deferral approach. The amended Standard will:

  • give all companies that issue insurance contracts the option to recognise in other comprehensive income, rather than profit or loss, the volatility that could arise when IFRS 9 is applied before the new insurance contracts Standard is issued; and
  • give companies whose activities are predominantly connected with insurance an optional temporary exemption from applying IFRS 9 until 2021. The entities that defer the application of IFRS 9 will continue to apply the existing financial instruments Standard—IAS 39.

The amendments to IFRS 4 supplement existing options in the Standard that can already be used to address the temporary volatility.

These amendments do not affect Group financial statements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

IAS 40 (Amendment) "Investment Property"

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2018.

In December 2016 the IASB issued amendments in IAS 40 "Investment Property", clarifying that an entity shall transfer a property to, or form, investment property when, and only when, there is change in use. A change in use occurs when the property meets, or ceases to meet, the definition of investment property and there is evidence of the change in use.

These amendments do not affect Group financial statements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

IFRIC 22 "Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration"

This applies to annual accounting periods starting on or after 1st January 2018.

In December 2016 the IASB issued the Interpretation IFRIC 22 "Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration" providing guidance on how to determine the date of the transaction when applying IAS 21 about foreign currency transactions. This Interpretation applies to foreign currency transactions when an entity recognizes a payment or receipt of advance consideration before the entity recognizes the related asset, expense or income.

The Group will assess the impact of the new standard on its financial statements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

Amendments that regard part of the annual improvement program of IASB (International Accounting Standards Board)

IASB in its annual improvement program published in December 2016, a Cycle of minor amendments to existing Standards. The Group will assess the impact of the new standard on its financial statements. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle

IFRS 1 "First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards"

The amendment holds for the annual fiscal periods beginning on or after the 1st of January, 2018. The amendment deletes short-term exemptions for first-time adopters.

IFRS 12 "Disclosure of Interests in Other entities"

The amendment holds for the annual fiscal periods beginning on or after the 1st of January, 2017. The amendment clarifies that the disclosure requirements in IFRS 12 apply to interests in entities within the scope of IFRS 5 "Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations", apart from the requirements to disclose summarized financial information.

IAS 28 "Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures"

The amendment holds for the annual fiscal periods beginning on or after the 1st of January, 2018.

The amendment clarifies that when an investment in an associate or a joint venture is held by an entity that is a venture capital organization, or a mutual fund, and similar entities apply the election to measure that investment at fair value through profit or loss in accordance to IFRS 9, this election shall be made separately for each associate or joint venture, at initial recognition.

2.1.5 Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of INTRALOT S.A. and its subsidiaries as at the end of each reporting period. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.

Adjustments are made to bring in line any dissimilar accounting policies that may have existed. All intercompany balances and transactions, including unrealized profits arising from intra-group transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealized losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered.

Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:

  • Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee)
  • Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
  • The ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of its returns.

When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

  • The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee
  • Rights arising from other contractual arrangements
  • The Group's voting rights and potential voting rights

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated

statements of comprehensive income and financial position from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

Changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions (i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners).

Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:

  • derecognizes the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary,
  • derecognizes the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests in the former subsidiary (including any components of other comprehensive income attributable to them),
  • derecognizes the cumulative translation differences that have been recorded in equity,
  • recognizes the fair value of the consideration received from the transaction,
  • recognizes any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value at the date when control is lost,
  • reclassifies to profit or loss, (or transfers directly to retained earnings if required in accordance with other IFRSs), the amounts that have been recorded in the parent's share of other comprehensive income,
  • recognizes any resulting difference as a gain or loss in profit or loss.

Where there is a loss of control of a subsidiary, the consolidated financial statements include the results for the part of the reporting year during which the Group has control.

2.1.6 Business combination and goodwill

a) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities that are controlled by the Group. Subsidiaries are consolidated using the acquisition method according to IFRS 3. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred measured at acquisition date fair value and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each subsidiary acquired, the Group elects whether to measure the non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. Acquisitionrelated costs are expensed as incurred and included to income statement.

At the acquisition date, the Group classifies or designates the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of the contractual terms, economic conditions, its operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions as they exist at the acquisition date.

In a business combination achieved in stages, the Group remeasures its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition-date fair value and recognizes the resulting gain or loss in profit or loss. In prior reporting periods, the Group may have recognized changes in the value of its equity interest in the acquiree in other comprehensive income (i.e. due to the fact that the investment has been classified as available for sale). If so, the amount that was recognized in other comprehensive income shall be recognized on the same basis as would be required if the Group had disposed directly of the previously held equity interest.

The Group recognizes any contingent consideration at the fair value, at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration which is deemed to be an asset or a liability will be recognized in accordance with IAS 39 either in income statement or as a change in other comprehensive income. If the contingent consideration is not within the scope of IAS 39, it is measured in accordance with the

appropriate IFRS. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it shall not be remeasured until it is finally settled within equity.

Goodwill in a business acquisition is initially measured at cost being the excess of the consideration transferred, the amount recognized for non-controlling interests and any previous interest held, over the net fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the acquiree. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the Group re-assesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognised at the acquisition date. If the re-assessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognised in profit or loss. Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign subsidiary and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate accordingly.

Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Based on IFRS 3 "Business combinations", Goodwill is not amortized. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group's cashgenerating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit, to which the goodwill relates. Where recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized.

Where goodwill forms part of a cash generating unit and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured on the basis of the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.

Any impairment losses that have been recognized for goodwill, will not be reversed in future periods.

Investments in subsidiaries are stated in the individual statement of financial position of the Company at their cost less any impairment in value.

b) Investment in associates and joint ventures

Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, but is not control or joint control over those policies.

A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

The considerations made in determining significant influence or joint control are similar to those necessary to determine control over subsidiaries.

The Group's investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method.

Under this method, investments in associates or joint ventures are carried in the statement of financial position at cost plus post acquisition changes in the Group's share of net assets of the associate or joint venture. Goodwill relating to the associate or joint venture is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is neither amortized nor individually tested for impairment.

The income statement reflects the Group's share of the post-acquisition associate's or joint venture's results after taxes and non-controlling interests of the associate's or joint venture's subsidiaries. Any change in other comprehensive income of those investees is presented as part of the Group's other comprehensive income. Also, the Group's share of the changes in associates' or joint ventures' equity is directly recognized to the consolidated statement of changes in equity. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate or joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associate or joint venture.

If an associate or joint venture uses accounting policies other than those of the Group for similar transactions and events in similar circumstances, adjustments are made to the associate's or joint venture's financial statements so as to apply the equity method.

The financial statements of associates or joint ventures are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company.

If the Group's share of losses of an associate or joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the associate or joint venture, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.

After application of the equity method, the Group applies the requirements of the relative IFRSs to determine whether it is necessary to recognize any additional impairment loss with respect to its net investment in the associate or joint venture. The Group incurs impairment test at the end of each reporting period comparing the recoverable amount of the investment in associate or joint venture to its carrying value and recognizes the difference in the income statement of the period.

The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date when it ceases to have significant influence over an associate or joint control over a joint venture and accounts for the investment in accordance with IAS 39 measuring the investment at fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the investment in associate or joint venture is recognized in the income statement of the period.

Investments in associates or joint venture are stated in the statement of financial position of the Company at their cost less any impairment in value.

2.1.7 Foreign Currency Translation

The functional and presentation currency of INTRALOT S.A. and its subsidiaries which are located in Greece is the euro (€). The Group's consolidated financial statements are presented in euros. For each entity the Group determines the functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency.

a) Transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group's entities at their respective functional currency spot rates at the date of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date.

All resulting differences are taken to the consolidated income statement with the exception of differences on foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity. These are taken directly to Other Comprehensive Income until the disposal of the net investment, at which time they are recognized in the consolidated income statement. Tax charges and credits attributable to exchange differences on those borrowings are also dealt with in Other Comprehensive Income.

Exchange differences resulting from financial assets and liabilities (intragroup loans and long term non trade receivables/payables for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future) that has been classified as part of an entity's net investment in a subsidiary with foreign operations, are recognised in income statement in the separate financial statements of the entity or/and subsidiary. In the consolidated financial statements, the above exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and included in the exchange differences reserve. When the settlement of the above financial assets and liabilities is planned or likely to occur in the foreseeable future, cumulative exchange differences in reserves are reclassified in consolidated income statement since the financial assets and liabilities cease to be part of an entity's net investment in a subsidiary with foreign operations. The same accounting treatment of reclassification applied on the subsidiary disposal.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of gain or loss on change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss are also recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss, respectively).

Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the spot rate of exchange at the reporting date.

b) Group companies

The functional currency of the overseas subsidiaries is the currency of the country in which these subsidiaries are located and operate. As at the reporting date, the assets and liabilities of these overseas subsidiaries are translated into the presentation currency of INTRALOT S.A. at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date and, their statements of comprehensive income are translated at the weighted average exchange rates for the year. The resulting exchange differences arising on the retranslation are taken directly to a separate component of Other Comprehensive Income. On disposal of a foreign entity, the deferred cumulative amount recognized in Other Comprehensive Income relating to that particular foreign operation shall be transferred to the income statement.

2.1.8 Tangible assets

Tangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. Such cost includes the cost of replacing the tangible assets and borrowing costs for long-term construction assets if the recognition criteria are met.


Buildings (owned)
20 to 30 years

Installations on third party property
Over the duration of the lease but not less
than 5% per annum

Equipment
5 to 15 years

Computer Hardware
20% to 30% per annum

Transportation Equipment-Motor vehicles
7 years or 15% per annum

Transportation Equipment-Trucks etc.
5 years or 20% per annum

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the asset as follows:

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in the income statement in the year the item is derecognized. The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each financial year end, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

As regards hardware and software leased under operating lease, these assets, in the group statement of financial position are disclosed in acquisition cost values and are depreciated using the straight line method and according to the lower period between the useful life and the contract life, taking also into account their residual value at the end of the relative contract life as well as the collecting cost. In case of the respective contracts renewal the assets' remaining net book value is depreciated according to the renewed contract life.

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using an after-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for public traded companies or other available fair value indicators. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Impairment losses are recognized in the income statement.

2.1.9 Borrowing costs

Since January 1st 2009, borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective assets. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that the Group incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

2.1.10 Investment properties

Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at historical cost less provisions for depreciation and impairment.

Investment properties are derecognised either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in profit or loss in the period of derecognition. Transfers are made to (or from) investment property only when there is a change in use. For a transfer from investment property to owner-occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequent accounting is the carrying amount at the date of change in use. If owner-occupied property becomes an investment property, the Group accounts for such property in accordance with the policy stated under tangible assets up to the date of change in use.

2.1.11 Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired individually, are capitalized at cost and those acquired through a business combination at fair values at the acquisition date. After initial recognition, intangibles are valued at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment in value. Useful lives of these intangibles are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangibles with finite useful lives are amortized as follows:


Software platforms
Central operating software

Central Network software


Licenses
Over the duration of the
longest contract

Rights
Other software
3 to 5 years

Central operating systems used for several projects are amortized over their expected useful life, up to 20 years. The expected useful life is determined by reference to the longest duration of the relevant contracts and the Intralot Group's renewal track record in respect of such contract. Software that does not fall within the scope of particular contracts, is amortized at the expected useful life.

Amortization of finite life intangibles is recognized as an expense in the income statement apportioned to the related cost centers. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life are not amortized, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash generating unit level.

Intangibles, except development costs, internally generated are not capitalized and the costs are included in the income statement in the year they are incurred.

The carrying values of intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the intangible assets or cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using an after-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the intangible asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for public traded companies or other available fair value indicators. For an intangible asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the intangible asset belongs. Impairment losses are recognized in the income statement.

Useful lives are also assessed annually and any revisions do not have retrospective application. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset (that are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) are recognized in the income statement when the asset is derecognized.

Research and Development Costs

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditure incurred by individual project is capitalized if, and only if, the Group can demonstrate all of the following:

  • (a) the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale
  • (b) its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it
  • (c) its ability to use or sell the intangible asset
  • (d) how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits

(e) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset

(f) its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

Following the initial recognition of the development expenditure, the cost model is applied requiring the asset to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization of the capitalized development expenditure begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use. Any expenditure capitalized is amortized over the period of expected future sales from the related project.

The carrying value of development costs is reviewed for impairment annually when the asset is not yet in use, or more frequently when an indicator of impairment arises during the reporting year indicates that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

2.1.12 Financial instruments

i) Financial assets

Financial assets within the scope of IAS 39 are classified according to their nature and characteristics in the below four categories:

  • Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss,
  • Loans and receivables,
  • Financial assets held-to-maturity, and
  • Available-for-sale financial assets.

All financial assets are recognized initially at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration given, including transaction costs, in some cases.

The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification as follows:

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss:

Include trading portfolio investments that acquired for the purpose of selling them in the near future. Also, include derivatives financial instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments. Gain or losses from the measurement of these assets are recognized in income statement as financial income or expenses respectively.

Loans and receivables:

Include non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method (EIR), less impairment. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any issue costs, and any discount or premium on acquisition over the period to maturity. Gains or losses arising from derecognition and impairment are recognized in the income statement as finance costs or income, as well as the EIR income through the amortization process.

Financial assets held-to-maturity:

Include non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities are classified as held-to maturity that the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold them to maturity. Financial assets that held for indefinite or non-predetermined period of time cannot be classified under this category. After initial measurement held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses arising from derecognition and impairment are recognized in the income statement as finance costs or income, as well as the EIR income through the amortization process.

Available-for-sale financial assets:

Financial assets that cannot be included under the abovementioned categories are classified as available-forsale financial assets. Available-for-sale financial investments include equity instruments and debt instruments. Equity instruments classified as available-for-sale are those that are neither classified as held for trading nor designated at fair value through profit or loss. Debt instruments in this category are those that are intended to be held for an indefinite period of time and that may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or in response to changes in the market conditions.

After initial measurement the available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value with unrealized gains or losses recognized as other comprehensive income in the available-for-sale reserve. When the investment is sold, derecognized or impaired the cumulative gains or losses are transferred from the relative reserve to the income statement of the period.

Derecognition of financial assets

The Group ceases recognizing a financial asset when and only when:

  • the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or
  • the Group has transferred its contractual right to receive cash flows from an asset, or retains this right to receive cash flows from an asset but has assumed a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to a third or more parties, or has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of the asset, or has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset but has transferred the control of the asset.

When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has assumed a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to a third or more parties, but in parallel has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognized to the extent of the Group's continuing involvement in the asset.

When the Group's continuing involvement takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset, the extent of continuing involvement is measured at the lower of the carrying amount of the asset and the maximum

amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay ("the guarantee amount"). When the entity's continuing involvement takes the form of a written or purchased option (or both) on the transferred asset (including cash-settled options), the extent of the entity's continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset that the Group may repurchase. However, in case of a written put option on an asset that is measured at fair value, the extent of the continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise.

Impairment of financial assets

The Group assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred "loss event") and that loss event (s) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Objective evidence that a financial asset or group of assets is impaired includes observable data that comes to the attention of the holder of the asset about the following loss events:

(a) significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor;

(b) a breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

(c) the lender, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower's financial difficulty, granting to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider;

(d) it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization;

(e) the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties; or

(f) observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets.

Financial assets carried at amortized cost

For financial assets carried at amortized cost (loans and receivables or held-to-maturity investments), the Group first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows

(excluding future expected credit losses that have not yet been incurred). The present value of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate (ie the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). If a loan has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current EIR. The carrying amount of the asset shall be reduced either directly or through use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognised in the income statement. Interest income continues to be accrued on the reduced carrying amount and is accrued using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss. The interest income is recorded as part of finance income in the income statement. Loans together with the associated allowance are

written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery and all collateral has been realised or has been transferred to the Group. If, in a subsequent year, the amount of the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is increased or reduced either directly or by adjusting the allowance account. If a future writeoff is later recovered, the recovery is credited to finance costs in the income statement.

Financial assets carried at cost

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred on an unquoted equity instrument that is not carried at fair value because its fair value cannot be reliably measured, or on a derivative asset that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of such an unquoted equity instrument, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial asset and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment losses shall not be reversed.

Available-for-sale financial investments

For available-for-sale financial investments, the Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is objective evidence that an investment or a group of investments is impaired.

In the case of equity instruments classified as available-for-sale, objective evidence would include a "significant" or "prolonged" decline in the fair value of the investment below its cost. "Significant" is evaluated against the original cost of the investment and "prolonged" against the period in which the fair value has been below its original cost. When there is evidence of impairment, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that investment previously recognised in the income statement – is removed from other comprehensive income and recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss for an investment in an equity instrument classified as available for sale shall not be reversed through profit or loss; increases in their fair value after impairment are recognised directly in other comprehensive income.

In the case of debt instruments classified as available-for-sale, impairment is assessed based on the same criteria as financial assets carried at amortised cost. However, the amount recorded for impairment is the cumulative loss measured as the difference between the amortised cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that investment previously recognised in the income statement. Future interest income continues to be accrued based on the reduced carrying amount of the asset, using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss. The interest income is recorded as part of finance income in the income statement. If, in a subsequent year, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale, increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in the income statement, the impairment loss is reversed through the income statement.

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as forward currency contracts, interest rate swaps, currency swaps and other derivatives in order to hedge risks related to interest rates and foreign currency fluctuations.

Such derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value at each reporting date. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. The fair value of these derivatives is mainly measured by reference of the market value and is verified by the financial institutions.

Gains or losses from the change in derivatives fair value are recognized directly in income statement, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges, which is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.

For the purpose of hedge accounting, derivative financial instruments are classified as:

  • fair value hedge: hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment
  • cash flow hedge: hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability (such as all or some future interest payments on variable rate debt) or a highly probable forecast transaction

hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation.

At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Group formally designates and documents the hedge relationship to which the Group wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the entity will assess the effectiveness of changes in the hedging instrument's fair value in offsetting the exposure to changes in the hedged item's fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated.

Hedge accounting:

Fair value hedge:

Gains or losses from subsequent measurement of the hedging instrument at fair value are recognized in the income statement as finance income/expenses. Gains or losses from subsequent measurement of the hedged item at fair value are recognized as a part of the carrying value of the hedged item and is also recognized in the income statement as finance income/expenses.

Cash flow hedge:

The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized directly as other comprehensive income in the cash flow hedge reserve, while any ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the income statement as finance income/expenses.

Amounts recognized as other comprehensive income are transferred to the income statement in the same period or periods during which the asset acquired or liability assumed affects profit or loss (such as in the periods when the hedged financial income or financial expense is recognized or when a forecast sale occurs).

If the forecast transaction or firm commitment is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to the income statement. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised without replacement or rollover, any cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income remains in other comprehensive income until the forecast transaction occurs, when is transferred to the income statement.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016

Hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation:

Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, including a hedge of a monetary item that is accounted for as part of the net investment, are accounted for in a way similar to cash flow hedges. Gains or losses on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge are recognized as other comprehensive income while any gains or losses relating to the ineffective portion are recognized in the income statement. On disposal of the foreign operation, the cumulative value of any such gains or losses recorded in other comprehensive income is transferred to the income statement.

Some derivatives while characterized as efficient hedging items, following group policy, they cannot qualify as hedging accounting according to IAS 39 and thus profit and loss are accounted directly in the income statement.

ii) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities include trade and other liabilities, bank overdrafts, loans and borrowings, financial guarantee contracts and derivative financial instruments.

Financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value and in case of loans and borrowings, plus directly attributable transaction costs.

After the initial measurement, the financial liabilities are measured as follows:

Interest bearing loans and borrowings:

All interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any issue costs, and any discount or premium on settlement. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss:

Include financial liabilities held for trading, that are acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing it in the near term, are part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking, or it is a derivative (except for a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract or a designated and effective hedging instrument).

Such liabilities, including derivative instruments that are liabilities, are measured at fair value (except for a derivative liability that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of an unquoted equity instrument whose fair value cannot be reliably measured, which shall be measured at cost). Gains or losses from the measurement at fair value are recognized in the income statement.

Financial guarantee contracts:

Include contracts that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. These contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently are measured at the higher of the amount determined in accordance with IAS 37 and the amount initially recognized less, when appropriate, cumulative amortization recognized in accordance with IAS 18.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation is cancelled, extinguished or not exists any more. In the case that an existing liability is replaced by another from the same borrower but under substantially different terms, or in case that there are substantial changes in terms of an existing liability, then the initial financial liability is derecognized and a new liability recognized, and the resulting difference between balances is recognized in the income statement.

Offsetting of financial instruments

The financial instruments are offset when the Group, according to law, has this legal right and there is an intention to settle them on a net basis (among them) or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Fair value of financial instruments

For investments that are actively traded in organized markets, fair values are determined in relation to the closing traded values at the reporting date. For investments where there is no quoted market price, fair value is determined by reference to the current market value of another item substantially similar, or is estimated based on the expected cash flows of the underlying net asset that consists the base of the investment or on acquisition cost.

2.1.13 Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business of the Group, less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Provisions for impairment of the inventories value are recorded when it is needed and recognized in the income statement.

2.1.14 Trade and other short term receivables

Trade receivables are recognized and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amount.

The Group makes an estimate for doubtful debts when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off when all possible legal actions have been exhausted.

When the inflow of cash or cash equivalents arising from goods sale or services rendering is deferred, the fair value of the consideration may be less than the nominal amount of cash received or receivable. When the arrangement effectively constitutes a finance transaction, the fair value of the consideration is determined by discounting all future receipts using the prevailing interest rate for a similar instrument of an issuer with a similar credit rating. The difference between the fair value and the nominal amount of the consideration is recognized as interest revenue in the future periods, in accordance with IAS 39 "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement".

2.1.15 Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position include cash at bank, short-term deposits and cash in hand along with other high liquidity investments that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and have an original maturity of three months or less.

Bank overdrafts are included in the short-term bank loans in the statement of financial position. Also, cheques payables that have not been paid at the reporting date are included in short-term liabilities.

For cash flow statement purposes, cash and cash equivalents include what is defined above, without the netting of outstanding bank overdrafts.

2.1.16 Long Term Liabilities

All long term liabilities are initially recognized at cost. Following initial recognition, liabilities that are denominated in foreign currency are valued at the closing exchange rate of each reporting date. Any interest expenses are recognized on an accruals basis.

2.1.17 Provisions and Contingent Liabilities

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain the expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement. Provisions are re-examined at the reporting date and are adjusted so as to represent the present value of the expense that will be needed to settle the liability. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at an after-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a borrowing cost.

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed, except if the probability of a potential outflow of funds embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized but are disclosed when the probability of a cash inflow is probable.

Provisions are recognized on each financial statements date (and interim) based on the best and reliable estimate for potential excess of cost (payments to winners) in games with predetermined odds, as this is provided by the contracts between the company and the clients. The provision amount arising from this calculation is recognized and booked as an expense.

2.1.18 Leases

Entity of the Group as lessee:

Finance leases, which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly to the income statement. Capitalized leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term.

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Entity of the Group as Lessor:

In cases of hardware and software leasing through operating lease, these assets are included in the Group's tangible assets. The lease income that occurs is recognized on a straight line basis through the contract period. When fixed assets are leased through financial leasing, the present value of the lease is recognized as a receivable. The difference between the gross amount of the receivable and its present value is registered as a deferred financial income. The income from the lease is recognized in the period's income statement during the lease using the net investment method, which represents a constant periodic return.

2.1.19 Share capital – Treasury shares

Share capital includes common and preference shares without voting right, which have been issued and being traded. Share premium reserve includes the excess of the shares par value received consideration. Any costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown as a deduction in share premium reserve.

Treasury shares represent shares of the parent company held by the Group. Treasury shares are stated at cost and are deducted from Equity. Upon acquisition, disposal, issuance or cancellation of treasury shares, no gain or loss is recognized in the income statement. The consideration given or received and the related gains or losses from the settlement are recognized directly in Equity.

2.1.20 Share Based Payments

IFRS 2 "Share-based Payment" requires an expense to be recognized where the Group buys goods and services in exchange for shares ("equity-settled transactions") or rights over shares (stock options), or in exchange for other assets equivalent in value to a given number of shares or rights over shares ("cash-settled transactions"). The Group provides stock options to executives and employees. The fair value of the executives and employees, who receive these stock options, is recognized according to IFRS 2 as expenditure in the income statement, with a respective increase of equity, during the period that these services are received and the options provided. The estimation of the total amount of the stock options expenditure during the vesting period is based on the provided stock options fair value at the grant date. The stock options fair value is measured using the proper valuation model depending on the terms of each program, taking into account the proper data such as volatility, discounting factor and dividend yield. Detailed information about the relative stock option programs of the Company included in note 2.26.

Any outstanding stock options during the reporting period are taken into account for the calculation of the diluted earnings per share.

2.1.21 Staff Retirement Indemnities

Staff retirement indemnities are measured at the present value of the defined benefit obligations at the reporting date, through the recognition of the employees' right to benefits based on years of service over their expected working life. The above liabilities are calculated using financial and actuarial assumptions and are determined based on an actuarial valuation method (Projected Unit Credit Method). The net pension costs for the period are included in the accompanying statement of comprehensive income and consists of the present value of the benefits earned during the year, interest cost on the benefit liability, past service cost and any other additional pension costs that are recognised within staff costs in income statement, and the actuarial gains or losses that are fully recognized when they occur, in other comprehensive income without future

reclassification in income statement. Total past service costs are recognized in income statement at the earlier of when the amendment occurs or when the Group recognizes the related restructuring or termination costs. The Company's pension benefit schemes are not funded.

2.1.22 State Insurance Programs

The Company employees are covered by the main State Insurance Organization for the private sector (IKA) that provides pension and medical benefits.

Each employee is obliged to contribute a percentage of the monthly salary to IKA while part of the total contribution is covered by the Company. On retirement, IKA is responsible for the payment of pensions to employees. Consequently, the Company does not have any legal or constructive obligation for the payment of future benefits based on this scheme.

2.1.23 Revenue recognition

Revenues are recognized in the period they are realized and the related amounts can be reliably measured. Revenues are measured at their fair value of the consideration received excluding discounts, sales tax and duties. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized:

Hardware and Software: This category includes the supply of hardware and software (gaming machines, central computer systems, gaming software, communication systems etc.) to Lotteries so that they can operate their on-line games. Revenue is recognized by the Company either as a direct sale of hardware and software or as operating lease or as finance lease for a predetermined time period according to the contract with the customer.

In the first case, the income from the sales of hardware and software (in a determined value) is recognized when the significant risks and rewards arising from the ownership are transferred to the buyer. In the second case that consists income from operating lease, is defined per case either on straight-line basis over the lease term or as a percentage on the Lottery Organization's gross turnover received by the player-customer (in this case income recognition occurs the moment that the player-customer places the related consideration in order to participate in a game).

In the third case that consists income from finance lease, it is defined using the net investment method (the difference between the gross amount of the receivable and its present value is registered as a deferred financial income). This method represents a constant periodic return, recognizing the revenue from the finance lease in the period's income statement during the lease term.

  • Technical services: This category includes the rendering of technical support services to Lotteries so that they can operate their on-line games. The revenue associated with the transaction is recognized by reference to the completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period.
  • Game management: The Group undertakes the provision of value added services, such as the design, organization and/ or management of games, advertising and sales promotion, establishment of sales network, risk management (for fixed odds games) e.t.c to organizations internationally. Group revenues mainly consist of a percentage of the turnover of the games to which the above services are provided, the size of which is contractually determined based on the market size, the type of services rendered, the duration of the contract and other parameters. Revenue recognition occurs the moment that the playercustomer pays the related consideration in order to participate in a game and equals to an amount

calculated as a percentage on the total amount received by the lottery games organization from the player-customer.

  • Game operation: In this category, the Group has the full game operating license in a country. In the case of operating the game the Company undertakes the overall organization of the games provided (installation of information systems, advertising and promotion, establishment of sales network, receipt of the payments from players, payment of winnings to players, etc). Revenue recognition in this category occurs the moment that the player-customer pays the related consideration in order to participate in a game and equals the total amount received from the player-customer. Especially in the case of VLT revenue measured as the "net drop" (total price minus winnings/payout) received from the player-customer.
  • Interest income: Interest income is recognized in the income statement using the effective interest rate method.
  • Dividends: Dividend income is recognized in the income statement when the Group's right to receive the payment is established.
  • Rental income: Rental income arising from operating leases on is accounted for on a straight-line basis during the lease term.

2.1.24 Taxes

Income tax

Current and deferred income taxes are calculated based on the financial statements of each entity included in the consolidated financial statements, based on the Greek tax laws or other tax frameworks within which the foreign subsidiaries operate. Income tax is calculated based on the profit of each entity as adjusted on their tax returns, for additional taxes arising from audits performed by the tax authorities and deferred taxes based on enacted or substantially enacted tax rates.

Deferred income tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences except:

  • If the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
  • In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investment in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not be reversed in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and carry-forward unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, or the unused tax losses can be utilized except if:

  • the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and,
  • in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investment in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that the

temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that apply at the year when the asset is expected to be realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred income tax is not measured by the Group as regards the undistributed profits of subsidiaries, branches, associates and joint ventures due to the elimination of intercompany profits, from relevant transactions, as they are considered insignificant.

Income tax relating to items recognized directly in Other Comprehensive Income is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income and not in the income statement.

Sales tax

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of sales tax except:

  • Where the sales tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the sales tax is recognized as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable and
  • Receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of sales tax included.

The net amount of sales tax recoverable from, or payable to, is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.

2.1.25 Government grants

Government grants are recognised where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions will be complied with.

When the grant relates to an expense item, it is presented in the statement of financial position as deferred income and is recognised as deduction in the relative expenses on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed.

When the grant relates to an asset, it is presented in the statement of financial position as deferred income and is recognised as income in the profit or loss on a systematic basis over the expected useful life of the related asset.

2.1.26 Earnings per share

The basic earnings per share (EPS) are calculated by dividing net profit by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each year, taking into account the average number of ordinary shares of the parent held by the Group as treasury shares.

The diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profits attributable to the equity holders of the parent company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year (adjusted for the effect of the average number of share option rights outstanding during the year).

2.1.27 EBITDA & EBIT

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) do not define the content of the "EBITDA" & "EBIT". The Group taking into account the nature of its activities, as well as the Decision 6/448/11.10.2007 of the BoD of Hellenic Capital Market Commission and the relative Circular no.34 defines "EBITDA" as "Operating Profit/(Loss) before tax" adjusted for the figures "Profit/(loss) from equity method consolidations", "Exchange Differences", "Interest and related income", "Interest and similar expenses", "Income/(expenses) from participations and investments", "Write-off and impairment loss of assets", "Gain/(loss) from assets disposal" and "Assets depreciation and amortization". Also, the Group defines "EBIT" as "Operating Profit/(Loss) before tax" adjusted for the figures "Profit/(loss) from equity method consolidations", "Exchange Differences", "Interest and related income", "Interest and similar expenses", "Income/(expenses) from participations and investments" ,"Write-off and impairment loss of assets" and "Gain/(loss) from assets disposal".

2.1.28 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of revenues, expenses, assets liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities that included in the financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its judgements, estimates and assumptions that mainly refer to goodwill impairment, allowance for doubtful receivables, provision for staff retirement indemnities, provision for impairment of inventories value, impairment of tangible and intangible assets as well as estimation of their useful lives, recognition of revenue and expenses, pending legal cases, provision for income tax and recoverability of deferred tax assets. These judgements, estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors including expectations of future events that are considered reasonable under the circumstances.

The key judgements, estimates and assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of uncertainty at the reporting date and have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are the below:

Goodwill, tangible and intangible assets impairment

Management tests goodwill for impairment annually (as at 31 December) or more frequently if events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be reduced in accordance with accounting policy described in note 2.15. The recoverable amounts of cash generating units (CGU) have been determined based on "value in use" calculations using appropriate estimates regarding future cash flows and discount rates. The determination of value in use is obtained by the present value of estimated future cash flows, as expected to be generated by each CGU (discounted cash flow method - DCF). The cash flows are derived from the most recent approved by the administration budgets for the next three years and does not include any estimated future cash inflows or outflows expected to arise from future restructurings or from improving or enhancing the asset's performance, which is tested for impairment. The expected cash flow projections beyond the period covered by the most recent budgets, estimated by extrapolating the projections based on the budgets using a steady or declining growth rate for subsequent years, which does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for products, industries, countries in which the Group operates, or for the market in which the asset is used. The Group makes estimates and beyond the period of five years where has signed revenue contracts beyond five years as well as in cases where management believes that based on market data and historical renewals track record of the Group, it is very possible to renew relevant contracts beyond this period. Cash flow projections are based on reasonable and supportable assumptions that represent management's best estimate of the range of economic conditions that will exist over the remaining useful life of the asset, giving greater weight to external evidence. Management assesses the reasonableness of the assumptions on which its current cash flow projections are based by examining the causes of differences between past cash flow projections and actual cash flows. Management also ensures that the assumptions on which its current cash flow projections are based are consistent with past actual outcomes, provided that effects of subsequent events or circumstances, that did not exist when those actual cash flows were generated, make this appropriate. Further details are provided in note 2.15.

The carrying values of tangible and intangible assets are reassessed for possible need for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the value reported on may not be recovered in accordance with the accounting principle described in the notes 2.1.8 and 2.1.11.

Income Tax Provision

The companies of the Group are subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. The provision for income taxes in accordance with IAS 12 "Income Taxes" refers to the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities and includes provision for current income taxes and the provision for any additional taxes that may arise as a result of the audit of the tax authorities. The provision for income tax of the Group for numerous transactions require significant subjective judgment, making tax exact calculation uncertain during the ordinary course of business of the Group. The estimate may differ from the final tax due to future changes in tax legislation or to unforeseen effects of the final determination of the tax liability for each year from the tax authorities. Where the final tax resulting from tax audits differ from the amounts that were initially assessed

and recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination of tax differences occurred. Further details are provided in notes 2.11 and 2.32B.

Deferred Tax Assets

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized on temporary differences between the accounting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using the tax rates that have been enacted and are expected to apply in the periods when the differences are expected to be eliminated. Deferred tax assets are recognized for the deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward to the extent that it is probable that there will be taxable income available to be used against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax losses. The Group considers the existence of future taxable income and ongoing follow a conservative tax planning strategies in assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets. The determination of future taxable income is made through the systematic process of budgeting, at the parent company level as well as at the level of subsidiaries, which are mainly based on already signed long-term revenue contracts. Almost all of the Group's revenue (parent and subsidiaries) derives from long-term contracts signed making the risk of discrepancies between budgeted and actual revenue as low, something that applies to the costs that usually are in a proportion relationship with the revenue of the related contracts. In any case there is a system of monitoring for the verification of these budgets and conducting relevant adjustments, resulting in the safe keeping of any final discrepancies at low levels. The accounting estimates related to deferred tax assets requires management to make assumptions about the timing of future events, the probability of expected future taxable income and available tax planning possibilities. Further details are provided in note 2.11.

Allowance for doubtful receivables

The Group impairs the value of receivables when there is evidence or indications which show that the recovery of the receivables in whole or in part is unlikely. The Group's Management periodically reassesses the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts based on factors such as the credit policy, reports from the legal department for recent developments in cases handled by this, and its estimation of the influence of other factors related to the collectability requirements. Further details are provided in notes 2.18 and 2.19.

Provision for staff retirement indemnities

Liabilities for retirement benefits are calculated using actuarial methods that require management to assess specific parameters such as discount rates, future growth rates of employee wages, the future rate of employees' retirement and other factors such as the inflation rate. The Group's management estimates in the best possible way these parameters on an annual basis, for the relevant actuarial study.

Estimation of assets useful life

The Group reassesses at each year end and, when appropriate, prospectively adjusts useful lives of tangible and intangible assets that were recognized either through acquisition or business combination. These estimates take into account new data and current market conditions. Further details are provided in notes 2.1.8, 2.1.10, 2.1.11, 2.14 and 2.15.

Contingent liabilities

The Group reviews the status of each significant legal case on a periodic basis and assesses the potential risk, based partly on the view of legal department. If the potential loss from any litigation and legal matters is considered probable and the amount can be reliably estimated, the Group recognizes a liability for the

estimated loss. In order to determine the probability and whether the risk can be estimated reliably, a considerable degree of judgment of management is required. When additional information becomes available, the Group reassesses the potential liability related to pending litigation and legal proceedings, and estimates for the probability of an unfavorable outcome and an assessment of potential loss may be revised. Such revisions in the estimates of the potential liability could have a material effect on the financial position and income statement of the Group. Further details are provided in note 2.32.A.

Provision for impairment of inventories value

The Group recognizes inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated selling expenses. Provisions for impairment of inventories are formed when necessary and recognized in the income statement.

Consolidation of subsidiaries in which the Group holds less than a majority of voting right (de facto control)

The Group estimates that controls the subsidiaries Supreme Ventures LTD, Inteltek Internet AS, Eurofootball LTD, Eurobet LTD και DC09 LLC, even though it holds less than 50% of the voting rights, since the conditions of IFRS 10 are met. Specifically, the control of Supreme Ventures LTD based on the fact that the Group is the largest shareholder with a stake of 49.90%, while the remainder of the shares of Supreme Ventures LTD is widely held in many other shareholders and since the acquisition date of Supreme Ventures LTD there is no history of the other shareholders collaborating to exercise their votes collectively or outvote the Group's proposals. Also, for the subsidiaries Inteltek Internet AS, Eurofootball LTD, Eurobet LTD and DC09 LLC, in which the Group holds 45%, 49%, 49% and 49% respectively of the voting rights, the control is based on the fact that the Group has signed agreements with other shareholders under which the Group has the ability to direct the business decisions of these subsidiaries.

Business combination

Group when acquiring a company performs the necessary estimates in determining the fair value and the useful life of the acquired tangible and intangible assets. Future events could cause changes in the assumptions used in determining fair value with a corresponding effect on the results and equity of the Group. Further details are provided in note 2.1.6.a.

Investment properties in Jamaica were valued by independent valuers "Allison Pitter & Co" (2015: "George Gregg & Co") on December 31, 2016, on the basis of open market value using the income approach. The fair value of investment properties is estimated at €6,1 million (2015: €5,8 million) and was categorized as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

The Group has leased its investment property to Exodus Gaming and Entertainment Limited (Exodus) for an initial period of 15 years with an option to renew the lease for a further 15 years. Exodus also has the option to purchase the property at any time after the fifth anniversary of the commencement date at a price to be agreed between Exodus and the Group within 60 days of the option notice being served. If no agreement is reached within the stipulated time, then the price will be the higher of USD 4,5 million, or the fair value on the date of the option notice, as determined by an independent valuator.

Goodwill and Intangible assets with indefinite useful life impairment test

Management tests goodwill for impairment annually (31 December) or more frequently if events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may have been reduced in accordance with accounting practice described in note 2.1.6.a "Business Combination and Goodwill".

The Group recognized impairment losses of goodwill amounting €0,6 million during the period 1/1- 31/12/2015 that were recognized in the income statement (in "Gain/(Losses) from assets disposal, impairment losses and write-off of assets" - note 2.7) due to missing certain assumptions that were used in 31/12/2014 for goodwill impairment testing of the Group's subsidiary company in Italy.

The Group tested goodwill for impairment on 31/12/2016 and the key assumptions that are used for the determination of the recoverable amount are disclosed below. The recoverable amounts of cash generating units have been determined based on value in use calculations using appropriate estimates regarding future cash flows and discount rates.

Specifically, goodwill arising on consolidation of acquired subsidiaries and intangible assets with indefinite useful life are allocated to the following cash generating units (CGU) by geographical area, which are the operating segments for impairment testing purposes:

CGU Goodwill Intangible assets with indefinite
useful life
31/12/2016 31/12/2015 31/12/2016 31/12/2015
European Union 24.202 5.837 2.331 2.300
Other Europe 0 0 0 0
America 20.434 21.496 2.832 2.936
Other countries 40.357 47.105 0 0
Total 84.993 74.438 5.163 5.236

Carrying amount:

Key assumptions:

The recoverable amount of each CGU is determined according to the calculations of value in use. The determination is obtained by the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by each CGU (discounted cash flow method - DCF). The cash flows are derived from the most recent approved by the management budgets for the next three years and do not include estimated future cash inflows or outflows expected to arise from future restructurings or from improving or enhancing the asset's performance which is tested for impairment. The expected cash flow projections beyond the period covered by the most recent budgets estimated by extrapolating the projections based on the budgets using a steady or declining growth rate for subsequent years, which does not exceed the longterm average growth rate for products, industries, countries in which the Group operates, or for the market in which the asset is used. The Group makes estimates beyond the period of five years where has signed revenue contracts beyond five years as well as in cases where management believes that based on market data and renewals track record of the Group, it is very possible the renewal of the relevant contracts beyond the five year period. Cash flow projections are based on reasonable and supportable assumptions that represent management's best estimate of the range of economic conditions that will exist over the remaining useful life of the asset, giving greater weight to external evidence. Management assesses the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying the current cash flow projections by examining the causes of differences between past cash flow projections and actual cash flows. Management also ensures that the assumptions on which its current cash flow projections are based are consistent with past actual outcomes, provided that subsequent events or circumstances that did not exist when those actual cash flows were generated make this appropriate. The use value for CGUs affected (has sensitivity) of the following key factors (assumptions):

  • Sales
  • Growth rate used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the budget period, and
  • Discount rates

Sales:

Sales projections are derived from estimates of local management of various subsidiaries. These projections are based on careful assessments of various factors, such as past performance, estimates of growth of the local market, competition - if exists, possible changes in the institutional framework governing the gambling market, the economic situation of the gambling industry and the market in general, new opportunities such as lotteries privatizations, etc.

Sales growth rate:

CGU 2016 2015
European Union -1,2% - 25,9% -0,9% - 5,4%
Other Europe n/a n/a
America 0,0% - 3,8% 0,0% - 10,1%
Other countries 0,0% - 16,6% 0,0% - 8,8%

Growth rate used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the budget period:

The factors taken into account for the calculation of the growth rate beyond the budgets period derive from external sources and include among others, the level of maturity of each market, the existence of barriers to entry for competitors, the economic situation of the market, existing competition and technology trends.

Growth rate beyond the budget period:

CGU 2016 2015
European Union 0,0% - 2,3% 0,0% - 2,7%
Other Europe n/a n/a
America 0,0% - 4,6% 0,0% - 6,0%
Other countries 0,0% - 3,6% 0,0% - 3,6%

Discount rates:

The discount rates represent the current market assessments of the risks personalized for each CGU, having made the necessary adjustments for the time value of money and possible risks specific to any assets that have not been included in the cash flow projections. The calculation of discount rates based on specific conditions under which the Group and its operating segments operate and calculated through the weighted average cost of capital method (WACC). The WACC takes into account both debt and equity. The cost of equity derives from the expected return that Group investors have for their investment. Cost of debt based on the interest rate of the Group loans. The specific risk of each country is incorporated by implementing individualized sensitivity factors "beta" (beta factors). The sensitivity factors "beta" evaluated annually based on published market data.

Discount rates:

CGU 2016 2015
European Union 6,2% - 8,0% 7,0% - 7,4%
Other Europe n/a n/a
America 17,5% - 28,1% 23,1% - 38,3%
Other countries 12,0% - 14,1% 11,9% - 14,0%

Recoverable amount sensitivity analysis:

On 31/12/16, the Group analyzed the sensitivity of the recoverable amounts in a reasonable and possible change of some of the basic assumptions (such as the change of a percentage point to the growth rate beyond the budget period and the discount rates). This analysis does not show a situation in which the carrying amount of the Group's significant CGUs exceeds their recoverable amount.

(a) State Insurance Programs:

The Group's contributions to the State insurance funds for the year ended 31 December 2016 that were reported in the year's expenses amount to €12.577 thousand as stated in Note 2.3.

(b) Staff Retirement Indemnities:

According to Greek Labor Law, employees are entitled to indemnity on dismissal or retirement, the amount of which varies depending on the years of service, salary level and the way the employee leaves employment (dismissal or retirement). Employees that resign or are dismissed for legally valid reasons are not indemnified. The indemnity payable on retirement is 40% of the amount that would have been payable to the same employee on dismissal on the same day (retirement date). In Greece, based on customary practice these programs are not funded. The Group charges to the income statement the expense attributable to the service provided by employees in the year, with a corresponding increase in the provision for staff retirement indemnities. Any payments made to retiring employees, are set against the related provision.

Independent actuaries calculated the Company's and the Group's liability for retirement indemnities. The movement of the net liability as presented in the balance sheet, details and the basic assumptions used in the actuarial study as at 31 December 2016 are as follows:

The management estimated that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables approximates their fair value, primarily because of their short term maturities.

Fair value hierarchy

The Group classifies fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making the measurements to them. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1: official quoted prices (unadjusted) in markets with significant volume of transactions for similar assets or liabilities

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The Group and the Company held on 31/12/2016 the following assets and liabilities measured at fair value:

Valuation methods and assumptions

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is the amount at which the asset could be sold or the liability transferred in a current transaction between market participants, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values:

  • Fair value of the quoted shares (classified as "Available for sale") derives from quoted market closing prices in active markets at the reporting date.
  • Fair value of the unquoted shares (classified as "Available for sale") is estimated by reference to the current market value of another item substantially similar or using a DCF model. The valuation through the DCF model requires management to make certain assumptions about

the model inputs, including forecast cash flows, the discount rate, credit risk and volatility. The probabilities of the various estimates within the range can be reasonably assessed and are used in management's estimate of fair value for these unquoted equity investments.

  • Fair value of the quoted bonds is based on price quotations at the reporting date. The fair value of unquoted instruments, loans from banks and other financial liabilities, obligations under finance leases, as well as other non-current financial liabilities is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities.
  • The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as forward currency contracts, interest rate swaps, currency swaps and other derivatives in order to hedge risks related to interest rates and foreign currency fluctuations. Such derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value at each reporting date. The fair value of these derivatives is measured mainly by reference of the market value and is verified by the financial institutions.

Description of significant unobservable inputs to valuation:

The fair value of unquoted shares (classified as "Available for sale") except that it is sensitive to a reasonably possible change in the forecast cash flows and the discount rate, is also sensitive to a reasonably possible change in growth rates. The valuation requires management to use unobservable inputs in the model, of which the most significant are disclosed in the tables below. The management regularly assesses a range of reasonably possible alternatives for those significant unobservable inputs and determines their impact on the total fair value.

Valuation
method
Significant unobservable inputs Range
(Weighted Average)
31/12/2016
31/12/2015
Sales growth rate 0.0% - 95.8%
(5.3%)
6.0% - 6.0%
(6.0%)
DCF Growth rate beyond budgets period 0.0% - 13.1%
(4.1%)
0.0% - 6.0%
(5.7%)
Discount rates (WACC) 6.4% - 18.9%
(18.2%)
7.9% - 19.5%
(19.0%)

Unquoted shares (classified as "Available for sale")

Sensitivity analysis of recoverable amounts:

On 31/12/2016, the Group analyzed the sensitivity of recoverable amounts in a reasonable and possible change in any of the above significant unobservable inputs (i.e. the change of one percentage point in the growth rate beyond the budgets period and discount rates). These analyses did not indicate a situation in which the carrying value of the Group's significant investments in unquoted shares exceeds their recoverable amount.

2.32 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES, ASSETS AND COMMITMENTS

A. LITIGATION CASES

a. On 5th September 2005 a lawsuit was served to the company, filed by the company "IPPOTOUR S.A.", against the company and the company "OPAP S.A.". Τhe plaintiff "IPPOTOUR S.A." requested to be acknowledged that the contract signed between OPAP S.A. and the Company should not grant to the latter the right to operate any kind of wagering game on Greek or foreign horse racing, that "OPAP S.A" should not have the right to operate any kind of wagering game on horse racing and that "OPAP S.A." and the company should be excluded from the operation and organization of betting games on horse racing. The hearing of the case had been set for 14th February 2008 when the hearing was postponed for 8th October 2009; at that date the hearing was cancelled due to the national elections. No summons for the schedule of a new hearing date has been served to the company until now. By virtue of the above mentioned lawsuit the plaintiff withdrew of the lawsuit filed against the Company and OPAP SA on 10th January 2003 with the same content, which was set to be heard on 18th May 2005, on which date the said hearing was cancelled. The Legal Department of the Company considers that, in case of the hearing of the case, the above-mentioned lawsuit would not be successful.

b. On 4th January 2005 OPAP S.A. submitted a notice of proceedings to "Betting Company S.A." regarding a lawsuit that was filed against OPAP S.A. before the Multi-member Court of First Instance of Athens, with which the plaintiff claims the payment of the amount of €3.668.378,60 plus accrued interests from OPAP S.A., pleading that OPAP S.A. should pay this amount to him as profit, in addition to the amount already paid to him. Since Betting Company S.A. has a legitimate interest in OPAP S.A. winning the lawsuit, Betting Company S.A., the companies INTRALOT S.A. and INTRALOT INTERNATIONAL LTD proceeded to an additional joint intervention in favour of OPAP S.A.; this was scheduled for hearing on 3rd May 2007 but following a petition for precipitation of the plaintiff the case was heard on 1st December 2005. By its decision No 2412/2006 the Multi-member Court of First Instance of Athens ruled in favour of the lawsuit of the plaintiff and, following the restriction by the plaintiff of his petition to a lawsuit for acknowledgement of the debt, the Court acknowledged the obligation of OPAP S.A to pay to the plaintiff the amount of €3.668.378,60. OPAP S.A and the aforementioned companies filed an appeal on 28/6/2006 which had been rejected by the Athens Court of Appeals with its decision no. 6377/2007. The defendants filed an appeal before the Supreme Court which was heard on 9th November 2009 and decision no. 1252/2010 was issued accepting the appeal and referring back the case to the Athens Court of Appeals which vindicated the defendants and dismissed the lawsuit with its decision no. 5189/2012. For the above case a provision had been made which has been reversed. On 23rd July 2014 an application for cassation was served to the company which has been heard, following a postponement, on 2nd February 2015 and the decision no 1062/2015 was issued referring the case for hearing before the plenary session of the Supreme Court. The case was heard before the plenary session of the Supreme Court on the 16th February 2017 and the issue of the decision is pending.

c. Against (a) publishing company "I. Sideris – Andreas Sideris Sons O.E.", (b) the Foundation of Economic and Industrial Researches (IOBE), (c) Mr. Theodosios Palaskas, Director of Research of IOBE, (d) the Kokkalis Foundation, and (e) INTRALOT, a lawsuit of Mr. Charalambos Kolymbalis, was filed on 8th March 2007 before the Multi-member Athens Court of First Instance. With his lawsuit, the plaintiff requests to be recognized as the sole creator of the project entitled "The financial consequences of sports in Greece" and his intellectual property right on this, and that the amount of €300.000 to be paid to him as monetary compensation for moral damages. Date of the hearing was set the 20th February 2008 when it was postponed for 4th March 2009 and then again for 24th February 2010; on that date the hearing of the case was cancelled due to strike of the judicial secretaries. New hearing date was scheduled the 23rd May 2012 when the case was heard and the decision no. 5724/2012 of the Athens Multi-member Court of First Instance was issued which dismissed the lawsuit. On 17 October 2015 an appeal was served to the company against the above decision, which was scheduled to be heard before the Athens Court of Appeals on 11 February 2016; on that date the hearing was postponed for 22 September 2016 due to lawyers strike when it was cancelled, while following a request of the plaintiff a new hearing date is set for 9 March 2017 when the case has been heard and the issue of the decision is pending.

d. On 26th July 2011 a lawsuit was served to INTRALOT SA and the company "Interstar Security LTD" from a former employee of INTRALOT SA claiming the payment of €500.000 as compensation for moral damage. The hearing had been initially set for 6th March 2014 when it was postponed for 10 November 2016. Before the hearing the plaintiff withdrew from the lawsuit. The estimate of the legal advisors of the Company is that in any case the lawsuit, if it will be heard, has no serious chance of success.

e. The Company and its subsidiary "Intralot International Limited" and Mr. Socratis P. Kokkalis, filed before the Athens Multi-member Court of First Instance their lawsuit dated 1st November 2012 against the company "Glory Technology Limited" having its registered offices in Cyprus and Mr. Athanassios K. Ktorides, resident of Cyprus, requesting to compel the defendants to pay, jointly and severally, because of slander and their unfair competitive behaviour:

  • to the first plaintiff (Intralot) the amount of €72.860.479,78 (including monetary compensation for moral damages amounting to €25.000.000) with the legal interest as from the service of the lawsuit
  • to the second plaintiff (Intralot International Limited) the amount of €5.019.081,67 (including monetary compensation for moral damages amounting to €5.000.000) with the legal interest as from the service of the lawsuit; and
  • to the third plaintiff (Mr. Socratis P. Kokkalis) the amount of €50.424.019,73 (including monetary compensation for moral damages amounting to €25.000.000) with the legal interest as from the service of the lawsuit.

The Athens Multi-member Court of First Instance issued its decision partially accepting the lawsuit; "Glory Technology Limited" is obliged to pay €50.000 to the first plaintiff, €25.000 to the second plaintiff and €25.000 to the third plaintiff. No appeal of the other party has been served to the Company yet. The Company filed an appeal against the decision requesting that the lawsuit to be accepted in total; no hearing date has been set for the appeal.

On the other hand, the company "Glory Technology Limited" and Mr. Athanassios K.

f. In Turkey, GSGM filed before the Ankara Tax Court a lawsuit against the local Tax Authority requesting the annulment of a penalty amounting to TRY 5.075.465 (€1.368.935) imposed on GSGM, since the Tax Authority considers that stamp duty should have been paid by GSGM also for the second copy of the contract dated 29th August 2008 with İnteltek İnternet Teknoloji Yatırım ve Danışmanlık Ticaret A.Ş. ("Inteltek") as well as for the letter of guarantee securing the minimum turnover of GSGM games.

j.

The Court of First Instance rejected Mr. Petre Ion's lawsuit. Mr. Petre Ion filed an appeal which was heard on 4 November 2014 and was partially accepted. The Company filed an appeal against this decision which was rejected. Following postponements, the case was heard on 10 June 2016 and the respective first instance decision was issued on 19 July 2016; the lawsuit against LOTROM was rejected while it was accepted partially in respect to its part filed against Intralot Holdings International Ltd., obligating the latter to pay the amount of the purchase and the legal expenses.

k. On 24 April 2013 the Company was notified of the existence of a research conducted by the Competition Board of Romania in relation to the contract signed in 2003 with Compania Nationala Loteria Romana regarding the Videolotto program. The Competition Board of Romania imposed a fine to the Company amounting to 5.541.874 ROL (€1.220.946) and to the subsidiary LOTROM to 512.469 ROL (€112.904). The Company and its subsidiary LOTROM filed a lawsuit against the respective decision requesting its annulment and the suspension of its execution. The applications for the suspension of validity of the above decision of the Competition Board were rejected and the Company and its subsidiary LOTROM filed appeals; no hearing date has been scheduled yet. Also, an application for the suspension of execution was filed by Intralot, scheduled to be heard on 13th November 2014, date on which the Court decided to suspend the issue of the decision until the competent court decides on the main recourse filed for annulment of the decision of the Competition Board. Against said decision an appeal was filed which has been rejected. Finally, the applications for the annulment of the decision of the Competition Board filed by LOTROM and INTRALOT were accepted by the court and the respective fines were cancelled. Against LOTROM and the respective abovementioned decision, the Competition Board of Romania filed an appeal which has not been yet scheduled for hearing.

l. In Romania, the subsidiary Lotrom was notified on the beginning of an investigation conducted by the competent authorities against the state lottery CNLR, client of the Group, in relation to alleged occurrence of the crime of conducting games of chance without license and possible complicity to that, in relation to the operation of Video Lottery machines of CNLR; the Group was the technology provider of CNLR from 2003 to 2014. Intralot was notified, through rogatory procedure, that itself along with LOTROM and Intracom, are alleged to be accomplices of the state lottery CNLR to the abovementioned crimes. Intralot refuted with a memo duly submitted within February 2016, the above allegations. Due to the early stage of the procedure and the nature of the case as well as due to the secrecy of the investigation procedures, neither further comments on the issue nor any estimation of any possible negative financial effect on the financials of the group can be provided.

m. In Poland, as a result of bet making points controls conducted by Custom Service bodies in 6 shops, a gambling law breach was claimed to be made by the "E-Promotion" program of the subsidiary "Totolotek Totomix SA" and a relevant administrative procedure was initiated which was concluded with the issue of a second instance decision of the Ministry of Finance for revocation of the six relevant licenses; the company filed a recourse against this decision before the Administrative Courts which was rejected and an appeal was filed against the respective decision which is pending. In relation to all remaining shops a second instance decision of the Ministry of Finance was issued revoking their licenses. The company has filed recourses before Administrative Courts which were rejected at the first and second instance except one case for which the hearing date before the second instance court is pending. "Totolotek Totomix SA" intends to file further legal means against the above decisions. Since December 2012, new licenses have already been issued by virtue of which the subsidiary "Totolotek Totomix SA" operates and, therefore, the abovementioned cases will not affect its activities. Following the abovementioned decisions of the Ministry of Finance regarding the revocation of the licenses, a fine amounting to 480.000 Euro was imposed to the company. The company filed a recourse against this decision and the court issued, on 13 May 2015, its decision vindicating "Totolotek Totomix SA" and cancelled the fine, while the respective appeal filed was rejected by the Warsaw Supreme Court rendering final the decision of the court which cancelled the fine.

n. In Italy, the company Tike Games S.r.l. filed a lawsuit before the civil courts of Rome requesting a compensation in the amount of 378.400 Euro in relation to a contract signed with Intralot Italia S.p.A. which now belongs to the group of Gamenet SpA where Intralot group has 20% participation. Intralot Italia S.p.A. had terminated the above contract due to material breach of an exclusivity undertaking provision when Intralot Italia SpA realized that the plaintiff had installed in its point of sale gaming machines (AWPs and VLTs) of a third party-concessionaire which was not approved by Intralot Italia S.p.A. The plaintiff claims that Intralot Italia S.p.A. is responsible for the compensation since it delayed to install the respective gaming machines. Following the hearing of 6th May 2015, the court set the next hearing date for 13 January 2016 when the case was heard and the decision vindicated Intralot Italia S.p.A.. The opinion of the external legal advisors is that the above lawsuit will not finally succeed.

o. In August 2012, two British Virgin Island companies filed a Complaint in the United States Bankruptcy Court Southern District of Florida, Miami Division, against numerous defendants, including Supreme Ventures Limited ("SVL"), a publicly traded gaming company listed on the Jamaican Stock Exchange in which INTRALOT holds an indirect shareholding interest. Notably, as per SVL, the lawsuit is based on the same claims (related to demands arose before the acquisition of INTRALOT's participation in SVL), towards third parties, initial shareholders and/or directors of SVL, or not, which were brought in, and were recently rejected by the Jamaican courts, first by the Supreme Court and then again by the Court of Appeals. INTRALOT is named as a «Relief Defendant» which means that INTRALOT is not alleged to have been part - directly or indirectly - of any wrongdoing, since the alleged by the plaintiffs acts are made before the acquisition of SVL's shares by INTRALOT through the Jamaican Stock Exchange. Intralot agrees with SVL's opinion that the Complaint is wholly without merit and expects that it will be successful in the Florida courts, as it was in the Jamaican courts.

p. In Brazil, a former officer of a subsidiary company filed a lawsuit against such subsidiary requesting several amounts to be paid to him as fees resulting from his labour relationship amounting to approx. €240.000 and from a services agreement calculated as a percentage 4% on the turnover of the subsidiary. On August 23rd, 2013, the decision of the local court was issued dismissing the lawsuit. The plaintiff filed an appeal and a decision was issued at the end of July 2014 which refers the case for a new hearing before the Court of First Instance. The court accepted the claim of the plaintiff in relation to the amounts owed due to his labor relationship but rejected the claim for remuneration resulting from a services agreement. The company filed an appeal before the Supreme Labor Court which is pending.

q. On 30 July 2012, Intralot filed before the Athens Multi-member Court of First Instance a lawsuit against the company "Hellenic Organization of Horse Racing S.A." (ODIE) requesting the payment of the amount of €2.781.381,15 relating to system maintenance services provided but not paid. The case was heard on 6th May 2015 and the issue of the decision is pending.

Moreover, Intralot filed a recourse to the arbitration panel on 13 August 2012 against the same company ODIE requesting the payment of the amount of €9.551.527,34 relating to operational services of integrated system provided but not paid. The arbitration was concluded on 1st March 2013 and the arbitration decision no 27/2013 was issued vindicating Intralot and compelling ODIE to pay to Intralot the total amount requested (€9.551.527,34). In order to secure its claims, Intralot:

a) by virtue of the above arbitration decision, has already recorded on the mortgage books of the Land Registry Office of Kropia a mortgage on a land property of ODIE and specifically on the property where the Horse Racetrack of Athens in Markopoulo Attica is operating, and on the buildings thereupon, for an amount of €11.440.655,35.

b) by virtue of the decision no 2209/2014 of the Athens Single Member Court of First Instance, has already recorded on the mortgage books of the Land Registry Office of Kropia, a note of mortgage on the same real estate of ODIE for an amount of €9.481.486,11.

c) advanced the procedure of compulsory execution against ODIE in order to execute its claims.

Furthermore, on 20 March 2014, Intralot filed before the Athens Multi-member Court of First Instance a lawsuit against ODIE requesting the payment of the amount of €8.043.568,69 which is owed to it pursuant to the "Agreement of Maintenance and Operation of the System of the Mutual Betting on Horse Races of ODIE" dated 6 March 2012. The hearing date was 17th February 2016 but on that date the hearing was postponed for 4 October 2017 due to lawyers' strike.

The confiscation on the above land property of ODIE in Markopoulo Attica imposed in the frame of the abovementioned procedure of compulsory execution against ODIE, was reversed with the consent of Intralot on 15 December 2015 in execution of the terms of the agreement dated 24 November 2015 between Intralot and ODIE which settled the payment of all above claims of Intralot. Pursuant to this agreement, ODIE assigned to Intralot 2/3 of the rent which it will receive from the lease agreement relating to that real estate to the company "Ippodromies SA". The payment of the assigned rent amounts has already been started.

r. In Italy, the company Stanley International Betting Ltd filed a recourse before the administrative courts of Lazio against the State Autonomous Administrative Monopolies (AAMS) and eventually against all companies to which licenses for conducting betting activities have been granted, including Intralot Italia SpA, (which now belongs to the group of Gamenet SpA where Intralot group has 20% participation) requesting the annulment of the legislative decree of 2012 which provided for the granting of licenses for betting activities for three years, the annulment of the tenders conducted in 1999 and 2006 and the betting licenses granted pursuant to them for twelve and nine years respectively.

The hearing of the case was made on 5 February 2014 and the court decided to suspend the issue of the decision until the European Court of Justice responds on some preliminary queries which have been set by the court of second instance relating to a recourse of Stanley International Betting Ltd against AAMS and the companies SNAI S.p.A. and Intralot Italia S.p.A. which was rejected at the first instance and was related, among others, to the legality of the participation of Stanley International Betting Ltd to the tenders of 1999 and 2006. The second instance court (Consiglio di Stato) rejected the appeal of Stanley International Betting Ltd following a decision of the European Court which was negative for Stanley International Betting Ltd, while a second recourse of the other party is pending before the court of first instance.

s. In Italy, pursuant to a law passed in December 2014, a decision was issued by the Italian Autonomous Administration of State Monopolies (AAMS) on 15th January 2015, according to which, all companies that operate gaming machines are required to pay to the Italian Autonomous Administration of State Monopolies (AAMS) the amount of 1,2K Euro per gaming machine which was in operation on 31st December 2014. The total balance due by all the industry companies is €500 million. The amount corresponding to Intralot Gaming Machines S.p.A. (which now belongs to the group of Gamenet SpA where Intralot group has 20% participation), is approximately €13 million. Intralot Gaming Machines S.p.A., together with all the industry companies, have appealed to the competent administrative court against both the abovementioned law and the decision of AAMS, requesting the annulment thereof for being unconstitutional as well as the suspension of the execution of the law and of AAMS's decision. The request for the suspension of execution was rejected by the competent court on 1st April 2015. The case regarding the constitutionality was heard on 1st July 2015 and the decision issued requested from the parties to submit additional information. Following a new hearing on 21 October 2015, the court, on 17 November 2015, decided to suspend the issue of the decision and to refer the case before the Constitutional Court. No hearing date before the Constitutional Court has been scheduled. Intralot Gaming Machines S.p.A. has exercised the right conferred by Law to recharge almost all of that tax to the sales network.

t. A former officer of the Company filed a lawsuit before the Athens First Instance Court requesting the payment of the amount of €121.869,81 as non-paid wages. The hearing had been scheduled for 25 May 2016 when it was postponed for 4 June 2018 due to lawyers' abstention from hearings. The Legal Department of the Company considers that, following the hearing of the case, the above-mentioned lawsuit would not be successful.

u. In Poland a lawsuit was filed against the subsidiary "Totolotek Totomix SA" by a player of betting games; he claims that the amount of 861.895PLN (€195.428) which was not paid by the abovementioned subsidiary because of violation of the betting regulations by the plaintiff, is due to him. "Totolotek Totomix SA" has requested the case to be heard before the Warsaw courts (instead of the courts of the town Torun) and this application was accepted, however the plaintiff has filed a recourse requesting that the case to be heard before the courts of Torun which was rejected by the court and the case will be heard by the Warsaw courts.

v. There is a dispute pending between on the one hand the subsidiary company Intralot Leasing Netherlands B.V. in its capacity as lessee and the Company in its capacity as guarantor and on the other hand the company Econocom Nederland B.V. with respect to a sale and leaseback of equipment agreement dated 28 March 2013 and more specifically in relation to a claim of Econocom Nederland B.V. for further payments to it. As per the agreement's terms, a stand-by letter of credit issued by the French bank Societe Generale in the amount of €5mil. had been delivered to Econocom Nederland B.V. The Company requested from the competent French court in Paris this stand-by letter of credit not to be called and the court issued a temporary decision restricting Societe Generale from paying any amount from the above stand-by letter of credit to Econocom Nederland B.V. until the hearing of the case, following postponement, on 17 January 2017. Additionally, the Company filed injunctions in the Netherlands against Econocom Nederland B.V. and the court accepted the respective application and prohibited Econocom Nederland B.V. to request the payment of the abovementioned letter of guarantee and of the relevant corporate guarantee, until the issue of the final judgement, ordering Econocom Nederland B.V. to pay a penalty of €10m in case of breach of the prohibition. A lawsuit was also filed with a request to be recognized that no further amounts are due to Econocom Nederland B.V. by virtue of the above agreement. Against the injunctions decision Econocom Nederland B.V. filed an appeal for which no hearing date has been scheduled.

Until 27/03/2017, apart from the legal issues for which a provision has been recognised, the Group Management estimates that the rest of the litigations will be finalized without a material effect on the Group's and the Company's financial position and results.

2.33 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Description of significant risks and uncertainties

The Group's international activities create several financial risks in the Group's operation, due to constant changes in the global financial environment. The Group beyond the traditional risks of liquidity risk and credit risk also faces market risk. The most significant of these risks are currency risk and interest rate risk. The risk management program is a dynamic process that is constantly evolving and adapted according to market conditions and aims to minimize potential negative impact on financial results. The basic risk management policies are set by the Group Management. The risk management policy is implemented by the Treasury Department of the Group which operates under specific guidelines approved by management.

Credit risk

The Group does not have significant credit risk concentration because of the wide dispersion of its customers and the fact that credit limits are set through signed contracts. The maximum exposure of credit risk amounts to the aggregate values presented in the balance sheet. In order to minimize the potential credit risk exposure arising from cash and cash equivalents, the Group sets limits regarding the amount of credit exposure to any financial institution. Moreover, in order to secure its transactions even more, the Group adopted an internal rating system, regarding credit rating evaluation, using the relevant financial indices.

Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. The Group took measures to obtain certain policies to monitor the liquidity in order to hold liquid assets that can cover Group's liabilities.

The following tables summarize the maturity of the financial liabilities of the Group based on contractual undiscounted payments.

Market Risk

1) Foreign Exchange risk

Fluctuations in exchange rates can have significant effects on the Group's currency positions. Group transactions are carried out in more than one currency and therefore there is a high exposure in foreign exchange rate fluctuations against the euro, which is the main underlying economic currency. On the other hand, the Group's activity abroad also helps to create a significant advantage in foreign exchange risk management, due to the diversification in the currency portfolio. This kind of risk mainly results from commercial transactions in foreign currency as well as investments in foreign entities. For managing this type of risk, the Group enters into derivative financial instruments with various financial institutions. The Group's policy regarding the foreign exchange risk concerns not only the parent company but also the Group's subsidiaries.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Τo cover currency risk from future cash flows in foreign currency, the Group proceeded during 2016 to conclusion of related hedging contracts with Greek and international financial institutions, for Parent Company and its subsidiaries. These contracts concerned forwards and flexible forwards for future cash flows amounting to USD126,0 mill., TRY58,5 mill. and AUD6,0 mill..

The Group of the fair valuation and liquidation of these derivatives, showed a loss of €0,8 mill. recognized in results for the year 2016.

As at December 31,2015, the Group of the fair valuation and settlement of derivative products presented a profit of €0,5 mill. recognized in income.

2) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group's activities are closely linked to interest rates because of investments and long and short term borrowings. To manage this risk category, the Group uses financial hedging instruments in order to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk. The Group's policy on managing its exposure to interest rate risk affects not only the parent company but also its subsidiaries for their loans concluded in euros or local currency. The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to long-term borrowings of the Group's floating rate. The Group also manages interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of loans with fixed and floating rate borrowings. On December 31, 2016, taking into account the impact of financial hedging products, approximately 75% of the Group's borrowings are at a fixed rate (2015: 71%). As a result, the impact of interest rate fluctuations in operating results and cash flows of the Group's operating activities is small, as shown in the following sensitivity analysis.

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates after the impact of financial hedging products. With all other variables held constant, the Group's profit before tax is affected by the impact on floating rate, as follows:

Euribor 1M +/- 1% 1.600
Year 2015 Change in interest rate Effect on profit before tax
Euribor 1M +/- 1% 2.000

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Group aims through capital management to ensure the smooth functioning ability of the Group in the future, shareholders value maximization and maintaining the appropriate capital structure in terms of capital costs.

The Group monitors its capital adequacy based on the ratio of net debt to EBITDA. Net debt includes borrowings and finance lease liabilities minus cash and cash equivalents.
