*UAB Sago has not left the Group during split-off, but the Group lost its control due to bankruptcy proceedings.
The Group has not any significant restriction on ability to access or use its assets and settle its liabilities. The Company has not any significant restriction on the ability of an unconsolidated subsidiary to transfer funds to the Company.
If the unconsolidated subsidiary has liquidity difficulties, the Company grants loans to the subsidiary after analysis of its needs. The Company has not any contractual commitments to provide financial support to unconsolidated subsidiary. Other commitments to provide financial support are disclosed in Note 27. In 2014 the Company has granted EUR 393 thousand of loans to UAB Kelio Ženklai to maintain the activity of the subsidiary. In 2015 the Company has not provided any financial support to any unconsolidated subsidiary.
As at 31 December 2015 and 2014 the Group has one associate – UAB Litagra, which activities include the primary crop and livestock (milk) production, grain processing and agricultural services. The Group has owned 36.88% of shares and voting rights of associate. Principal place of business and country of incorporation of UAB Litagra is Lithuania.
The Group has not any significant restriction on the ability of the associate to transfer funds to the Group as at 31 December 2015 and 2014.
The principal accounting policies applied in preparing the Group's and the Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 are as follows:
The financial statements of the Company and the consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union (hereinafter the EU).
These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investment properties, financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, investments to subsidiaries and associates measured at fair value through profit and loss and available-for-sale investments that have been measured at fair value. The financial statements are presented in thousands of euro (EUR) and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand except when otherwise indicated. From 1 January 2015 the euro became local currency of the Republic of Lithuania. The previous year comparison information recalculated using the official conversion ratio of litas to euro: 1 euro = 3.4528 litas.
The Group has adopted the new and amended IFRS and IFRIC interpretations as of 1 January 2015:
The principal effects of these changes are as follows:
The interpretation clarifies the accounting for an obligation to pay a levy that is not income tax. The obligating event that gives rise to a liability is the event identified by the legislation that triggers the obligation to pay the levy. The fact that an entity is economically compelled to continue operating in a future period, or prepares its financial statements under the going concern assumption, does not create an obligation. The same recognition principles apply in interim and annual financial statements. The application of the interpretation to liabilities arising from emissions trading schemes is optional. The Group is not currently subjected to significant levies so the impact on the Group is not material.
The improvements consist of changes to four standards.
The amendments had no impact on the Group's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015.
Amendments to IAS 19 – Defined benefit plans: Employee contributions (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 February 2015).
The amendment allows entities to recognise employee contributions as a reduction in the service cost in the period in which the related employee service is rendered, instead of attributing the contributions to the periods of service, if the amount of the employee contributions is independent of the number of years of service. The Group and the Company are not expected that the amendment would impact its financial statements.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 February 2015).
The improvements consist of changes to seven standards.
The Group and the Company are not expected that the impact of the amendments on its financial statements would be material.
Amendments to IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements: Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016)
This amendment adds new guidance on how to account for the acquisition of an interest in a joint operation that constitutes a business. The Group and the Company are not expected that the amendment would impact its financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 27: Equity Method in Separate Financial Statements (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016)
The amendments will allow entities to use the equity method to account for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates in their separate financial statements. The amendments could impact the Company's financial statements only if the Company would be decide to change accounting policy and would account investments in consolidated subsidiaries using the equity method, not at cost. The Company had not yet decided whether it will change accounting policy starting from 2016.
Amendments to IAS 1: Disclosure Initiative (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016)
The Standard was amended to clarify the concept of materiality and explains that an entity need not provide a specific disclosure required by an IFRS if the information resulting from that disclosure is not material, even if the IFRS contains a list of specific requirements or describes them as minimum requirements. The Standard also provides new guidance on subtotals in financial statements, in particular, such subtotals (a) should be comprised of line items made up of amounts recognised and measured in accordance with IFRS; (b) be presented and labelled in a manner that makes the line items that constitute the subtotal clear and understandable; (c) be consistent from period to period; and (d) not be displayed with more prominence than the subtotals and totals required by IFRS standards. The Group and the Company are currently assessing the impact of the amendments on its financial statements.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016)
The amendments impact 4 standards.
The Group and the Company are not expected that the impact of the amendments on its financial statements would be material.
The following new standards adopted by the EU are not relevant for the Group and the Company:
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 once adopted by the EU)
Key features of the new standard are:
The Group and the Company are currently assessing the impact of the new standard on its financial statements.
The new standard introduces the core principle that revenue must be recognised when the goods or services are transferred to the customer, at the transaction price. Any bundled goods or services that are distinct must be separately recognised, and any discounts or rebates on the contract price must generally be allocated to the separate elements. When the consideration varies for any reason, minimum amounts must be recognised if they are not at significant risk of reversal. Costs incurred to secure contracts with customers have to be capitalised and amortised over the period when the benefits of the contract are consumed. The Group and the Company are currently assessing the impact of the standard on its financial statements.
Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 28: Investment Entities: Applying the Consolidation Exception (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016 once adopted by the EU)
The Standard was amended to clarify that an investment entity should measure at fair value through profit or loss all of its subsidiaries that are themselves investment entities. In addition, the exemption from preparing consolidated financial statements if the entity's ultimate or any intermediate parent produces consolidated financial statements available for public use was amended to clarify that the exemption applies regardless whether the subsidiaries are consolidated or are measured at fair value through profit or loss in accordance with IFRS 10 in such ultimate or any intermediate parent's financial statements. The Group and the Company are currently assessing the impact of the amendments on its financial statements.
IFRS 16 Leases (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 once adopted by the EU)
The new standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. All leases result in the lessee obtaining the right to use an asset at the start of the lease and, if lease payments are made over time, also obtaining financing. Accordingly, IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases as is required by IAS 17 and, instead, introduces a single lessee accounting model. Lessees will be required to recognise: (a) assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value; and (b) depreciation of lease assets separately from interest on lease liabilities in the income statement. IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently. The Group and the Company are currently assessing the impact of the standard on their financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 7 Disclosure Initiative (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017 once adopted by the EU)
The amended IAS 7 will require disclosure of a reconciliation of movements in liabilities arising from financing activities. The amendments would have no impact on the Group's financial position or performance, but the additional disclosures would be added.
Amendments to IAS 12 Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017 once adopted by the EU)
The amendment has clarified the requirements on recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealised losses on debt instruments. The entity will have to recognise deferred tax asset for unrealised losses that arise as a result of discounting cash flows of debt instruments at market interest rates, even if it expects to hold the instrument to maturity and no tax will be payable upon collecting the principal amount. The economic benefit embodied in the deferred tax asset arises from the ability of the holder of the debt instrument to achieve future gains (unwinding of the effects of discounting) without paying taxes on those gains. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the amendments on its financial statements.
The adoption of the following new standards and amendments are postponed by the EU indefinitely:
The Group and the Company has not yet analysed impact of them to its financial statements.
The Company has multiple unrelated investors and holds multiple investments. Ownership interests in the Company are in the form of equity securities issued by the Company – ordinary registered shares. In the management's opinion, the Company meets the definition of an investment entity as the following conditions exist:
The Company has no subsidiaries other than those determined to be controlled subsidiary investments and those who provide services that are related to the entity's investment activities. Controlled subsidiary investments are measured at fair value through profit or loss and not consolidated, in accordance with IFRS 10. The fair value of controlled subsidiary investments is determined on a consistent basis to all other investments measured at fair value through profit or loss, and as described in the Note 2.15 below. The subsidiaries that provide services that are related to the entity's investment activities are consolidated.
An associate is an entity, over which the Company has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. Investments that are held as part of the Company's investment portfolio are carried at fair value even though the Company may have significant influence over those companies. This treatment is permitted by IAS 28 'Investments in associates and joint ventures' as exception from applying the equity method. Accounting of associates and joint ventures until becoming investment entity is disclosed in Notes 2.9 and 2.10.
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the group has control. The group controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. All intra-group balances, transactions, income and expenses, unrealised gains and losses and dividends resulting from intra-group transactions that are recognised in assets, are eliminated in full.
Non-controlling interest is the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent and is presented separately in the consolidated income statement and within equity in the consolidated statement of financial position, separately from parent shareholders' equity. The group treats transactions with non-controlling interests as transactions with equity owners of the group. For purchases from non-controlling interests, the difference between any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.
Total comprehensive income (losses) within a subsidiary are attributed to the non-controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance.
When the group ceases to have control, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value, with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss or retained earnings, as appropriate.
From 1 January 2015 the euro became local currency of the Republic of Lithuania. The financial statements are prepared in euro (EUR), which is local currency of the Republic of Lithuania, and presented in EUR thousand. Euro is also the local currency of the Republic of Latvia. Euro is the Company's and the Group's functional and presentation currency. The exchange rates in relation to other currencies are set daily by the European Central Bank and the Bank of Lithuania. The previous year comparison information recalculated using the official conversion ratio of litas to euro: 1 euro = 3.4528 litas.
As these financial statements are presented in euro thousand, individual amounts were rounded. Due to the rounding, totals in the tables may not add up.
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, excluding the costs of day to day servicing, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of the plant and equipment when the cost is incurred, if the recognition criteria are met. Replaced parts are written off.
The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or change in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives.
| Vehicles | 6-10 years |
|---|---|
| Other non-current assets | 3–6 years |
The asset residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end to ensure that they are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items in property, plant and equipment.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. 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 asset) is included in the income statement within "other income" in the year the asset is derecognised.
Construction in progress represents plant and properties under construction and is stated at cost. This includes the cost of construction, plant and equipment and other direct costs. Construction in progress is not depreciated until the relevant assets are completed and are available for its intended use.
Properties that are held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and that are not occupied by the companies in the consolidated Group, are classified as investment properties. Investment properties also include properties that are being constructed or developed for future use as investment properties.
Land held under operating leases is classified and accounted for by the Group as investment property when the rest of the definition of investment property is met. Land is not presented separately from the buildings as these assets cannot be acquired or sold separately.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are carried at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the reporting date. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in the income statement in the year in which they arise.
Investment properties are derecognised when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gains or losses on the retirement or disposal of an investment property are recognised in the income statement within "Net gains (losses) from fair value adjustments on investment property" in the year of retirement or disposal.
Transfers are made to investment property when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by the end of owner occupation, commencement of an operating lease to another party. Transfers are made from investment property when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by commencement of owner occupation or commencement of development with view to sale.
For a transfer from investment property to owner occupied property or inventories, the deemed cost of property for subsequent accounting is its fair value at the date of change in use. If the property occupied by the Group as an owner occupied property becomes an investment property, the Group accounts for such property in accordance with the policy adopted for property, plant and equipment up to the date of change in use. For a transfer from inventories to investment property, any differences between fair value of the property at that date and its previous carrying amount are recognised in the income statement.
Intangible assets are measured initially at cost. Intangible assets are recognised if it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and the cost of asset can be measured reliably. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. The useful lives of intangible assets other than goodwill are assessed to be finite. Intangible assets are amortised using the straight-line method over the best estimate of their useful lives.
Funds' management rights include investment, pension funds and portfolio of clients acquired during asset management entities acquisition. Funds' management rights acquired in a business combination are capitalised at the fair value at the acquisition date and treated as an intangible asset. Following initial recognition, funds' management rights are carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Funds' management rights are amortised during 5 - 20 years.
Contracts include information technology solution service contracts acquired during information technology solutions entities acquisition and the dwelling-houses facilities management and the market management contracts acquired during dwellinghouses facilities management's entity acquisition. Customer relationship was acquired during information technology solutions entities acquisition.
Contracts and customer relationship assured on the acquisition of subsidiaries are capitalised at the fair value established on acquisition and treated as an intangible asset. Following initial recognition, contracts are carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The information technology solution service contracts and customer relationship was amortised during 2 - 10 years, the dwelling-houses facilities management contracts are amortised during 2.5 - 5 years, the market management contract – 11 years.
The costs of acquisition of new software are capitalised and treated as an intangible asset if these costs are not an integral part of the related hardware. Software is amortised during 3 years.
Costs incurred in order to restore or maintain the future economic benefits that the Group and the Company expect from the originally assessed standard of performance of existing software systems are recognised as an expense when the restoration or maintenance work is carried out.
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
The Group applies the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred from 1 January 2010 (until that they were included in the acquisition cost). Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the recognised amounts of acquiree's identifiable net assets.
When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host contracts by the acquiree.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date through profit or loss.
Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration, which is deemed to be an asset or liability, will be recognised in accordance with IAS 39 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it should not be remeasured until it is finally settled within equity. In instances where the contingent consideration does not fall within the scope of IAS 39, it is measured in accordance with the appropriate IFRS. In the business combinations, which was incurred prior to 1 January 2010, subsequent adjustments to the contingent consideration were recognised as part of goodwill.
The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the group's share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest recognised and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement.
Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of annual impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group's cash generating units, or groups of cash generating units, that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the Group are assigned to those units or groups of units. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated:
− represents the lowest level within the Group at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes; and
− is not larger than an operating segment determined in accordance with IFRS 8 Operating Segments.
Where goodwill forms part of a cash generating unit (group of cash generating units) 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 based on the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash generating unit retained.
The Group's investments in its associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. An associate is an entity in which the Group has significant influence, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20 % and 50 % of the voting rights.
Under the equity method, the investment in the associate is carried in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost plus post acquisition changes in the Group's share of net assets of the associate. Goodwill relating to an associate is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is neither amortised nor individually tested for impairment. The income statement reflects the share of the results of operations of the associate. Where there has been a change recognised in the other comprehensive income of the associate, the Group recognises its share of any changes and discloses this, when applicable, in the other comprehensive income. Group's share in the changes in the net assets of the associate that are not recognised in profit or loss or other comprehensive income (OCI) of the associate, are recognised in equity. Profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associate.
The reporting dates of the associate and the Group are identical and the associate's accounting policies conform to those used by the Group for like transactions and events in similar circumstances. After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an additional impairment loss of the Group's investment in its associates. The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in associate is impaired. If this is the case the Group calculates the amount of impairment as being the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying value and recognises the amount in the income statement. When the group's share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
If the ownership interest in an associate is reduced but significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate. Upon loss of significant influence over the associate, the Group measures and recognises any retaining investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retaining investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.
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 Group recognises its interest in the joint venture using the equity method in the consolidated financial statements. The financial statements of the joint venture are prepared for the same reporting year as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.
When the Group contributes or sells assets to the joint venture, any portion of gain or loss from the transaction is recognised based on the substance of the transaction. When the Group purchases assets from the joint venture, the Group does not recognise its share of the profits of the joint venture from the transaction until it resells the assets to an independent party.
Upon loss of joint control the Group measures and recognises its remaining investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the former joint controlled entity upon loss of joint control and the fair value of the remaining investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss. When the remaining investment constitutes significant influence, it is accounted for as investment in an associate.
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures in the Company's stand-alone financial statements was carried at cost, less impairment until becoming investment entity. After becoming investment entity investments in unconsolidated subsidiary, associates and joint ventures are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Investments in consolidated subsidiaries are carried at cost, less impairment. After becoming investment entity non-current loans granted to subsidiaries are considered as part of investments to subsidiaries. They are measured together with equity part of investments to subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss.
Interest on loans granted at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the income statement within 'other income' based on the effective interest rate.
When the fair value of investments into subsidiaries together with non-current loans granted to subsidiaries is determined, the value is split into legal components, i.e. between debt and equity instruments. The amortised cost of loans granted is attributed to debt instruments. The remaining value is attributed to equity instruments of the subsidiary.
For investments carried at cost, less impairment, the Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that these investments may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company makes an estimate of the investment's recoverable amount. The impairment test is performed as outlined in Note 2.13, and in addition the market value of debt is deducted from the recoverable amount.
Until becoming investment entity, when the group ceases to have control over subsidiary any retained interest in the entity is not remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, but the retained interest in an associate is carried at historical cost less impairment in Company's stand-alone financial statements. After becoming investment entity, when the group ceases to have control over consolidated subsidiary any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost.
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as assets held for sale when their carrying amount is to be recovered principally through a sale transaction and a sale is considered highly probable. They are stated at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell if their carrying amount is to be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use.
In the consolidated income statement of the reporting period, and of the comparable period of the previous year, income and expenses from discontinued operations are reported separately from income and expenses from continuing activities as a single amount as profit or loss after tax from discontinued operations in the income statement, even when the Group retains a non-controlling interest in the subsidiary after the sale, e.g. subsidiary becomes an associate.
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets once classified as held for sale are not depreciated or amortised.
When preparing the consolidated statement of income, all inter-company transactions between discontinued and continuing operations that the Group intends to conduct after the discontinuance, are presented in continuing operation without elimination, i.e. they are presented as if they were conducted with third parties. In this case the elimination entry is recorded in discontinued operations. All inter-company transactions between discontinued and continuing operations that the Group does not intend to conduct after the discontinuance, are eliminated from continuing operation.
The Group and the Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group and the Company makes an estimate of the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's or cash generating unit's fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs to sell, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators.
Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognised in the income statement within "impairment, write-down and provisions".
For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group and the Company makes an estimate of recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in relation to goodwill are not reversed for subsequent increases in its recoverable amount.
The following criteria are also applied in assessing impairment of specific assets:
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 for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit (or group of cash generating units), to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit (or group of cashgenerating units) is less than the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit (group of cash-generating units) to which goodwill has been allocated, an impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods. The Group performs its annual impairment test of goodwill as at 31 December.
Financial assets within the scope of IAS 39 are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held to maturity investments (no such are held), available-for-sale financial assets, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired The Group and the Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of financial asset or financial liability not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. The Group and the Company considers whether a contract contains an embedded derivative when the entity first becomes a party to it. The embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract which is not measured at fair value through profit or loss when the analysis shows that the economic characteristics and risks of embedded derivatives are not closely related to those of the host contract.
All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the settlement date. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
The Group and the Company classifies its investments in debt and equity securities, and derivatives, as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
This category has two sub-categories: financial assets held for trading and those designated at fair value through profit or loss at inception.
Gains or losses on financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in profit and loss within "Net change in fair value of financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss". Interest on debt securities at fair value through profit or loss is recognized within other income based on the effective interest rate. Dividends earned on investments are recognised in the income statement as other income when the right of payment has been established. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if expected to be settled within 12 months; otherwise, they are classified as non-current.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial measurement loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method less any allowance for impairment. Amortised cost is calculated taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and includes fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate and transaction costs. Gains and losses are recognised in the income statement when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through amortisation process. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. These are classified as non-current assets. The group's loans and receivables comprise 'loans granted', 'trade and other receivables', 'deposits', 'restricted cash' and 'cash and cash equivalents' in the statement of financial position (see Notes 17, 18, 19, 20).
Available-for-sale financial assets are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classified in any of other categories. After initial measurement, available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value with unrealised gains or losses being recognised as other comprehensive income in the fair value reserve. When the investment is disposed of, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in equity is recognised in the income statement. Interest earned on the investments is reported as interest income or expense using the effective interest rate. Dividends earned on investments are recognised in the income statement as other income when the right of payment has been established. They are included in non-current assets unless the investment matures or management intends to dispose of it within 12 months of the end of the reporting period. Unquoted ordinary shares, which fair value cannot be measured reliably, are measured at cost.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
The fair value of investments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the close of trading, which is the date closest to the reporting date. The fair value of investments that are not traded in active markets is determined by using valuation techniques. Such valuation techniques may include the most recent transactions in the market, the market price for similar transactions, discounted cash flow analysis or any other valuation models.
The Group and the Company assesses at each reporting date whether is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a 'loss event') and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
The criteria that the group uses to determine that there is objective evidence of an impairment loss include:
The Group and the Company first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables carried at amortised cost 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 been incurred) discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate (i.e. 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 effective interest rate determined under the contract. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through use of an allowance account. The amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss within "impairment, write-down, allowances and provisions".
The Group and the Company assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets. When financial asset is assessed as uncollectible and all collateral has been realised or has been transferred to the Group and the Company the impaired asset is derecognised. The objective evidence for that is insolvency proceedings against the debtor is initiated and the debtor has not enough assets to pay to creditors, the debtor could not be found.
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed. Any subsequent reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss within "impairment, write-down, allowances and provisions", to the extent that the carrying value of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date.
In relation to trade receivables, a provision for impairment is made when there is objective evidence (such as the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor) that the Group and the Company will not be able to collect all of the amounts due under the original terms of the invoice. The carrying amount of the receivable is reduced through use of an allowance account. Impaired debts are derecognised when they are assessed as uncollectible.
The Group and the Company assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. For debt securities, the group uses the same criteria as financial assets carried at amortised cost. In the case of equity investments classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is also evidence that the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-forsale financial assets, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss – is removed from equity and recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in the income statement on equity instruments are not reversed through the income statement; increases in their fair value after impairment are recognised directly in other comprehensive income. 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, the amount of 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 are not reversed.
Inventories are initially recorded at acquisition cost. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Subsequent to initial recognition, inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition are estimated as follows:
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. If collection is expected in one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets.
Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment.
Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.
For the purpose of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and in current bank account as well as deposit in bank with an original maturity of three months or less.
The cash or short-term deposits, which use is restricted, are presented in caption 'restricted cash' in the statement of financial position (see Note 20).
Financial liabilities within the scope of IAS 39 are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, other financial liabilities, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The Group and the Company determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of other financial liabilities, plus directly attributable transaction costs.
All financial liabilities of the Company and the Group are classified as other financial liabilities. The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification as follows:
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period.
A financial asset (or, where applicable a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when:
→ the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired;
Where the Group and the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognised to the extent of the Group's and the Company's continuing involvement in the asset.
In that case, the Group and the Company's also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group and the Company has retained.
Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the income statement.
The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at inception date of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. A reassessment is made after inception of the lease only if one of the following applies:
Where a reassessment is made, lease accounting shall commence or cease from the date when the change in circumstances gave rise to the reassessment for scenarios a), c) or d) and at the date of renewal or extension period for scenario b).
Finance leases, which transfer to the Group and the Company substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalised 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 reflected in the income statement.
Capitalised leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Group and the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term.
If the result of sales and lease back transactions is financial lease, any profit from sales exceeding the book value is not recognised as income immediately. It is postponed and amortised over the lease term.
Leases where the lessor retains all the risk and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognised as an expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
If the result of sales and lease back transactions is operating lease and it is obvious that the transaction has been carried out at fair value, any profit or loss is recognised immediately. If the sales price is lower than the fair value, any profit or loss is recognised immediately, except for the cases when the loss is compensated by lower than market prices for lease payments in the future. The profit is then deferred and it is amortised in proportion to the lease payments over a period, during which the assets are expected to be operated. If the sales price exceeds the fair value, a deferral is made for the amount by which the fair value is exceeded and it is amortised over a period, during which the assets are expected to be operated.
Leases where the Group and the Company do not transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned.
The Group and the Company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and when specific criteria have been met for each of the group's activities as described below. The Group and the Company bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, excluding discounts, rebates, and other sales taxes or duty. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer, usually on dispatch of the goods.
Gain (loss) from sale of investment is recognised when the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the investment have passed to the buyer and are recognised within operating activity, as the parent company treats the securities trading as its main activity.
The Group sells information technology infrastructure and facility management services to the customers. For sales of services, revenue is recognised in the accounting period in which the services rendered, by reference to stage of completion of the specific transaction and assessed on the basis of the actual service provided as a proportion of the total services to be provided.
Rental income arising from operating leases on investment properties is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. When the Group provides incentives to its tenants, the cost of incentives is recognised over lease term, on a straightline basis, as a reduction of rental income.
Income is recognised as interest accrues (using the effective interest method that is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset).
Income is recognised when the Group's and the Company's right to receive the payment is established.
The Company recognises a liability to make cash or non-cash distributions to equity holders of the parent when the distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. In Lithuania a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity. The liability for non-cash distributions is measured at the fair value of the assets to be distributed with subsequent fair value re-measurement recognised directly in equity as adjustment to the amount of the distribution.
Upon distribution of non-cash assets, any difference between the carrying amount of the liability and the carrying amount of the assets distributed is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
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 capitalised 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 an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the asset are in progress and expenditures and borrowing costs are incurred. Borrowing costs are capitalised until the assets are substantially ready for their intended use. If the resulting carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recorded.
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the income statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
The standard income tax rate in Lithuania and in Latvia was 15 % in 2015 and in 2014. Starting from 2010, tax losses can be transferred within Lithuania at no consideration or in exchange for certain consideration between the group companies if certain conditions are met.
Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse based on tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:
By Lithuanian Income Tax Law shall be not taxed sale of shares of an entity, registered or otherwise organised in a state of the European Economic Area or in a state with which a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation has been concluded and brought into effect and which is a payer of corporate income tax or an equivalent tax, to another entity or a natural person where the entity transferring the shares held more than 25% of voting shares in that entity for an uninterrupted period of at least two years. If mentioned condition is met or will be met by judgement of the management of the Company, there are not recognised any deferred tax liabilities or assets in respect of temporary differences associated with this investments. In Latvia gains from the sale of shares are not taxed, and losses are not deductible.
Deferred income tax asset has been recognised in the statement of financial position to the extent the management believes it will be realised in the foreseeable future, based on taxable profit forecasts. If it is believed that part of the deferred income tax asset is not going to be realised, this part of the deferred tax asset is not recognised in the financial statements.
Deferred tax asset are not recognised:
In Lithuania and in Latvia tax losses can be carried forward for indefinite period, except for the losses incurred as a result of disposal of securities and/or derivative financial instruments. In Lithuania such carrying forward is disrupted if the Company changes its activities due to which these losses incurred except when the Company does not continue its activities due to reasons which do not depend on the Company itself. In Latvia such carrying forward is disrupted if a change in the control of entity has taken place, unless entity maintains its previous type of ordinary activity for the subsequent five years. In Lithuania the losses from disposal of securities and/or derivative financial instruments can be carried forward for 5 consecutive years and only be used to reduce the taxable income earned from the transactions of the same nature. From 1 January 2014 current year taxable profit could be decreased by previous year tax losses only up to 70% in Lithuania.
The carrying amount of deferred 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 tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.
Grants are recognised where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attaching conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognised as income over the period necessary to match the grant on a systematic basis to the costs that it is intended to compensate. The amount of the grants related to assets is recognized as deferred income and released to income on a linear basis over the expected useful life of related asset. In the income statement, depreciation expense account is decreased by the amount of grant amortisation.
Provisions are recognised when the Group and the Company have a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Group and the Company expect some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised 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. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
A contingent liability recognised in a business combination is initially measured at its fair value. Subsequently, it is measured at the higher of:
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decisionmaker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as Board of Directors that makes strategic decisions.
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are recognised in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Where any group company purchases the company's equity share capital (treasury shares), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to the company's equity holders until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such shares are subsequently reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the company's equity holders.
The Company and the Group pay social security contributions to the state Social Security Fund (the Fund) on behalf of its employees based on the defined contribution plan in accordance with the local legal requirements. A defined contribution plan is a plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into the Fund and will have no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the Fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior period. Social security contributions are recognised as expenses on an accrual basis and included in payroll expenses.
Termination benefits are payable whenever an employee's employment is terminated before the normal retirement date or whenever an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The group recognises termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the entity recognises costs for a restructuring that is within the scope of IAS 37 and involves the payment of termination benefits. In the case of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after reporting date are discounted to their present value.
The Company and the Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.
If there is an individual arrangement with an employee the Company and the Group may make payments into defined contribution pension plans. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. The group has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.
The Group operates a number of equity-settled, share-based compensation plans, under which the entity receives services from employees as consideration for equity instruments (options) of the group. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of the options is recognised as an employee benefits expense. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted:
Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to vest. The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each reporting period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-marketing vesting conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the income statement, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.
When the options are exercised, the company issues new shares. The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to share capital (nominal value) and share premium when the options are exercised.
The grant by the company of options over its equity instruments to the employees of subsidiary undertakings in the group is treated as a capital contribution. The fair value of employee services received, measured by reference to the grant date fair value, is recognised over the vesting period as an increase to investment in subsidiary undertakings, with a corresponding credit to equity.
If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, at a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.
If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
If an equity award is cancelled by forfeiture, when the vesting conditions (other than market conditions) have not been met, any expense not yet recognised for that award, as at the date of forfeiture, is treated as if it had never been recognised. At the same time, any expense previously recognised on such cancelled equity awards are reversed from the accounts effective as at the date of forfeiture.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per share.
Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the financial statements. They are disclosed unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote.
A contingent asset is not recognised in the financial statements but disclosed when an inflow or economic benefits is probable.
Events after the reporting period that provide additional information about the Group's position as at the end of the reporting period (adjusting events) are reflected in the financial statements. Events after the reporting period that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.
Due to change functional and presentation currency of the Group and the Company from litas to euro, the previous year comparison information recalculated using the official conversion ratio of litas to euro: 1 euro = 3.4528 litas. Also loans granted to UAB Kelio Ženklai was reclassified from 'non-current loans granted' to 'investments to subsidiaries' (EUR 1,324 thousand as at 31 December 2014).
The preparation of financial statements requires management of the Group and the Company to make judgements and estimates that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of reporting period. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in the future periods.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
In the process of applying the Group accounting policies, management has made the following judgement, which has most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements:
Management has made a judgement that the split-off completed in 2014 (unlike the split-off in 2013) was not in scope of IFRIC 17 "Distribution of Non-cash Assets to Owners". IFRIC 17 includes an exemption that the Interpretation does not apply to a distribution of a non-cash asset that is ultimately controlled by the same party or parties before and after the distribution. During the split-off shares were allocated proportionally to all shareholders in the Company and in the separated entities, the Company is controlled according to the agreement by the same shareholders group before and after the Split-off, therefore this exemption could be applied. Therefore, profit or loss is not recognised in the financial statements during the Split-off and was accounted as the transfer of assets at carrying amounts.
According to the management, the Company meets all the defining criteria of an investment entity from the Split-off in 2014 and henceforth investments in subsidiaries and associates are measured at fair value through profit or loss. The management periodically reviews whether the Company meets all the defining criteria of an investment entity. In addition, the management assesses the Company's operation objective, investment strategy, origin of income and fair value models.
The shares of AB INVL Technology, AB INVL Baltic Real Estate, AB Šiaulių bankas (acquired in 2015) and the financial assets acquired during asset management entities acquisition were designated at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition because the Management believes that this presentation represents best the way these investments are managed and their performance is evaluated and provides more relevant information to the users of financial statements.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Group based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Group. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
The significant areas of estimation used in the preparation of these financial statements are discussed below.
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures may be impaired. Each investment is considered individually. If any such indication exists, the Company makes an estimate of the recoverable amount of investment. As at 31 December 2015 and 2014, there were no impairment indications.
The fair values of investments in subsidiaries and associates are determined by using valuation techniques, primarily earnings multiples, discounted cash flows and recent comparable transactions. The models used to determine fair values are periodically reviewed and compared against historical results to ensure their reliability. Details of the inputs and valuation models used to determine Level 3 fair value, is provided in Note 15.
The fair value of the investments in subsidiaries and associates of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2015 was EUR 5,765 thousand and EUR 14,897 thousand, respectively (as at 31 December 2014 - EUR 8,978 thousand and EUR 14,855 thousand, respectively) (described in more details in Note 15).
The impairment loss of trade receivables and loans granted was determined based on the management's estimates on recoverability and timing relating to the amounts that will not be collectable according to the original terms of receivables and loans. These accounting estimates require significant judgement. Judgement is exercised based on net assets value of subsidiaries, significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter into bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default or delinquency in payments. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans granted and trade receivables 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. The expected cash flows exclude future credit losses that have not been incurred and are discounted at the original effective interest rate (that is, the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). Carrying amounts of loans and receivables are disclosed in Notes 17 and 18.
The group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 2.13. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates (Note 13).
The useful lives of funds' management rights acquired through business combinations are disclosed in Note 2.7 and amortisation charge for the year is disclosed in Note 13. The useful lives are determined by management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed on an annual basis for appropriateness. The lives are based on historical experiences with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life. If the estimated useful lives of funds' management rights have been one year shorter, the amortisation charge for the year ended 31 December 2015 would have increased by EUR 25 thousand (2014: EUR 2 thousand).
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for tax losses carry-forwards to the extent that the realisation of the related tax benefit through future taxable profits is probable. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised based upon the likely timing and amount of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.
Deferred income tax asset is recognized on individual company basis taking into account future performance plans of those companies. No deferred tax asset is recognized from tax losses carry forward of EUR 2,972 thousand as 31 December 2015 (as at 31 December 2014 – EUR 2,426 thousand) due to future uncertainties related with the performance of those companies. As at 31 December 2015 the Company has not recognised deferred tax asset from EUR 11,589 thousand tax losses arising from disposal of securities, as they mature in 2016-2019 (as at 31 December 2014 – EUR 11,171 thousand, as they mature in 2017 and 2018). As at 31 December 2015 in the total deferred tax asset balance of the Group the amount of EUR 339 thousand (as at 31 December 2014 – EUR 438 thousand) relates to deferred income tax asset recognized from the taxable losses of the Company and EUR 1,012 thousand (as at 31 December 2014 – EUR 920 thousand) was recognized from the taxable losses of other Group's entities (Note 7). As at 31 December 2015 recognition of deferred income tax asset from the taxable losses of acquired asset management entities are supported on the estimation of these entities' profitability, which is based on the forecasted growth of managed funds and clients portfolio, on management fees, on future funds return and number of clients (Note 13). If the profitability estimation would be change by 5%, deferred income tax asset would be recognised by EUR 51 thousand more/less (as at 31 December 2014 – EUR 46 thousand).
Other areas involving estimates include useful lives of property, plant and equipment and allowances for accounts receivable. According to the management, these estimates do not have significant risk of causing a material adjustment.
The Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting of the Company, held on 5 February 2014, adopted resolution to approve the preparation of the terms of split-off of AB Invalda INVL. The split-off terms were announced on 21 March 2014. The General Shareholders Meeting approved the terms of the Company's split-off on 28 April 2014. The Split-off was completed on 29 April 2014. According to the terms, three entities AB INVL Baltic Farmland, AB INVL Baltic Real Estate and AB INVL Technology, comprising 47.95% of the Company assets calculated at carrying amounts, were split-off from the Company. These entities will apply for closed-end investment company licenses. The split-off of the Company will allow realizing the earlier announced plan to concentrate into asset management business. Entities, operating in agricultural land, real estate and information technology segments, and three newly established entities (Note 4), which initial names were the same as the split-off entities, were transferred to newly split-off entities. Shares were allocated proportionally to all shareholders of the Company (presently there are about 4000 shareholders of the Company) in the separated entities. All the shares of the newly established companies were listed on the NASDAQ Vilnius Exchange from 4 June 2014.
According to the exemption in the IFRIC 17, the Split-off is accounted as the transfer of assets at carrying amounts. No gain or loss was recognised.

The Group's and the Company's principal financial instruments that are not carried at fair value in the statement of financial position are cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables, loans granted, trade and other payables and investments available-for-sale.
The fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The carrying amount of the cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2015 and 2014 approximated their fair value because they are short-term and the impact of discounting is immaterial.
The carrying amount of loans granted by the Company and Group as at 31 December 2015 and 2014 approximates their fair value because the interest rates are reviewed and adjusted when market rates change. Their fair value is based on cash flows discounted using 4.5 % and 5.8 % interest rate as at 31 December 2015 and 2014, respectively. It is Level 3 fair value measurement.
The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly;
Level 3: techniques which use inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.
As the Split-off completed in 2014 the Company is investment entity in accordance with IFRS 10. Subsidiaries and associates are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on arm's length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group and Company is the measurement date exchange closing price.
The valuation of Level 3 instruments are performed by the Company's employees, analysts, every quarter. The value are estimated as at the last day of quarter. The management of the Company review the valuations prepared by analysts.
Investment into shares of UAB Litagra (agriculture segment) was measured using EBITDA multiplier method for the business segment of grains processing and agricultural productions and using Price to book value (P/BV) multiplier method for trading business segment. It was used EBITDA for last three trailing 12 months periods ended at the end of reporting period with bigger weight for last 12 months period figures. At the time of becoming an investment entity it was measured according to the latest deal that has finished at the end of May of 2014 (Note 4).
Investment in facility management entities was measured using trailing twelve months EBITDA and applying a multiplier of comparable entity AB City Service, operating in Lithuania and listed on the NASDAQ Vilnius. It was decided not to use other foreign companies' multipliers, which were higher than the one used in the calculations due to the fact that facility management is local business dependent on varying Lithuanian legal and business environment. Other facility management entities operating in Lithuania are not public companies.
The entities of banking activities segment were measured according to the last transaction price as at 31 December 2014, as these entities were acquired in December 2014. In 2015 they are sold (Note 4).
UAB Kelio Ženklai was measured according to fair value of its assets and liabilities. The main assets - buildings - of UAB Kelio Ženklai was valued using sales comparison method. On the assessment the value of UAB Kelio Ženklai reflects its liquidation value.
Dormant entities are measured according to its equity, because they have only cash and current liabilities.

*These financial assets owned by the Group, but not by the Company itself
During 2015 and 2014, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements.
The available-for-sale financial assets owned by the Group are measured at cost in accordance with IAS 39 because their fair value cannot be measured reliably, as they have no quoted market prices in an active market.
Financial instruments carried at fair value (cont'd)

On 24 November 2011, the Bank of Lithuania announced AB Bankas Snoras as insolvent and revoked the licence. According to the public information about AB Bankas Snoras, most likely is that bank's assets were significantly below the liabilities already on 30 September 2011. Therefore the management of the Company decided to recognise allowance for impairment of deposit's certificate in full amount. After decision of the Supreme Court of Lithuania in 2015 the Company and the Group have received insurance payment of EUR 54 thousand for deposit's certificate. Therefore, the nominal value of the certificate and allowance for impairment was decreased by EUR 54 thousand.

Legal reserve is a compulsory reserve under Lithuanian legislation. Annual transfers of not less than 5 % of net profit, calculated in accordance with the statutory financial statements, are compulsory until the reserve reaches 10 % of the share capital. The reserve can be used only to cover the accumulated losses.
Reserve for the acquisition of own shares is formed for the purpose of buying own shares in order to keep their liquidity and manage price fluctuations. It can be formed by shareholders' decision at the Annual Shareholders Meeting from the profit available for distribution. The reserve cannot be used to increase the share capital. The reserve does not change when Company acquires own shares, but is utilised when own shares are cancelled. The shareholders can decide to transfer unused amounts of the reserve back to retained earnings at the Annual Shareholders Meeting.
As at 31 December 2015 and 2014 the Group and the Company have not any borrowings.

In 2011 and in 2012 the Group has agreed with Nordea bank on the extension of current financing of the real estate segment for 3 years. On 28 February 2014 the borrowings of EUR 10,574 thousand of subsidiaries UAB INTF Investicija and UAB Sago have matured. The agreement with bank regarding the extension of the terms of borrowings was not reached and the subsidiaries have defaulted.

The risk management function within the Group is carried out in respect of financial risks (credit, market and liquidity), operational risks and legal risks. On an overall Group level strategical risk management is executed by the Board of Directors. Operational risk management is carried out at each entity level by directors. The primary objectives of the financial risk management function are to establish risk limits, and then ensure that exposure to risks stays within these limits. The operational and legal risk management functions are intended to ensure proper functioning of internal policies and procedures to minimise operational and legal risks.
The Group's and the Company's principal financial liabilities comprise trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to raise finance for the Group's and the Company's operations. The Group and the Company have various financial assets such as trade and other receivables, loans granted, investments in equity and debt securities, deposits held in banks and cash which arise directly from its operations. The Group and Company has not used any of derivative instruments so far, as management considered that there is no necessity for them.
The Group is being managed the way so its main businesses would be separated from each other. This is to diversify the operational risk and create conditions for selling any business avoiding any risk to the Company and the Group.
The Company's policy is to not provide any guarantee or surety for the Group's companies. The Group's companies do not provide any guarantees one against another usually.
The main risks arising from the financial instruments are market risk (including currency risk, cash flow and fair value interest rate risk and price risk), liquidity risk and credit risk. The risks are identified and disclosed below.
Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to outstanding trade receivables, loans granted and debt securities.
The Group estimates the credit risk separately by the segments.
At the date of financial statements there are no indications of worsening credit quality of trade and other receivables, which are neither due, nor impaired, due to constant control by the Group of receivable balances. The maximum exposure to credit risk is disclosed in Notes 17 and 18. The maximum exposure to credit risk for loans granted classified as 'investments to subsidiaries measured at fair value through profit or loss' are their carrying amounts (EUR 1,048 thousand as at 31 December 2015 and EUR 1,324 thousand as at 31 December 2014). There are no significant transactions of the Group or the Company that occur outside Lithuania and Latvia.
With respect to credit risk arising from other financial assets of the Group and the Company, which comprise deposits at banks and cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and debt securities, the Group's and the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. The maximum exposure to credit risk is disclosed in Notes 16 and 19.
The Group's and the Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the debt obligations with floating interest rates and to the owned bonds.
The Group and the Company has not any borrowing as at 31 December 2015 and 2014. The Company and the Group has loans granted to its subsidiaries with fixed interest rates for one year. Therefore, the Group and the Company are not exposed to cash flow interest rate risk from loans granted.
In 2014 and 2015 bonds at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The table below shows the impact of change in market interest rate on the debt securities at fair value.
| Group | |||||||

The Group and the Company are exposed to equity securities price risk because of investments held by the Group and the Company and classified on the statement of financial position either as available-for-sale or at fair value through profit or loss. The Group and the Company are not exposed to commodity price risk. To manage their price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Group and the Company diversify their portfolio.
The Group's and the Company's investments in equity of other entities that are publicly traded are included in the equity index: OMX Baltic Benchmark Gross Index (OMXBBGI).
The table below summarises the impact of increases/decreases of the equity index on the Group's and the Company's profit before tax for the year. The analysis is based on the assumption that the equity index had increased/ decreased by 20 % with all other variables held constant and all the Group's and Company's equity instruments moved according to the historical correlation with the index:
| Index | Group | Company | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2015 | 2014 | 2015 | 2014 | |
| OMXBBGI | 982 | 204 | 982 | 204 |
Profit before tax for the year would increase/decrease as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified at fair value through profit or loss.
As a result of operations the statement of financial position of the Group can be affected by movements in the reporting currencies' exchange rates. The Group's and the Company's policy is related to matching of money inflows from the most probable potential sales with purchases by each foreign currency. The Group and the Company do not apply any financial instruments allowing to hedge foreign currency risks, because these risks are considered insignificant.
The foreign currency risk at the Group and the Company is not large, taking into consideration that most monetary assets and obligations are denominated in euro. As at 31 December 2014 and 2015 the Group and Company has insignificant assets denominated in other foreign currency.
The Group's and the Company's policy is to maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents or have available funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet their commitments at a given date in accordance with strategic plans. The liquidity risk of the Group and the Company is controlled on a level of subsidiaries. The Group's and the Company's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of borrowings. The liquidity risk management is divided into long-term and short-term risk management.
The aim of the short-term liquidity management is to meet daily needs for funds. Each operating segment is independently planning its internal cash flows. Short-term liquidity for the Group and the Company is controlled through monthly monitoring of the liquidity status and needs of funds according to the Group's operating segments.
Long-term liquidity risk is managed by analysing the predicted future cash flows taking into account the possible financing sources. Before approving the new investment projects the Group and the Company evaluate the possibilities to attract needed funds. The general rule is applied in the Group to finance the Group companies or to take loans from them through the parent company in order to minimise the presence of direct borrowings between the companies of different operating segments.

The growth of Lithuanian economy according to Statistics Lithuania in 2015 was 1.7 percent year-on-year. Quarter-onquarter growth has shown positive trend and was 2.1 percent. According to the economic overview published by the Bank of Lithuania "Lithuanian economy overview: December, 2015" the growth of Lithuanian economy was almost half of what it used to be several years before. The main reasons are trade sanctions between Lithuania and Russia and difficult economic situation in neighbouring eastern countries. Bank of Lithuania forecasts Lithuanian GDP to grow by 2.9 percent in 2016 based on expectations that consumers' purchasing power and investments grow in 2016.
2 Company and Group companies calculated remuneration
According to the comment by SEB published on January 2016, Lithuanian economy growth in 2015 was effected by economic situation in countries – export partners, therefore exports to growing economies such as Poland has increased while exports to Russia and Belarus has decreased as these two countries have entered a recession.
On the other hand economic growth was saved by internal consumption. The main driving forces of it are moderately improving unemployment rate, which has decreased by 1.3 percentage point compared to the end of 2014 (10.1 percent) and reached 8.8 percent in the end of 2015 and drop in consumer price index (CPI) which was negative -0.1 percent. The biggest negative impact on prices due to high assigned weights in the CPI had plummeting prices of natural resources.
According to the forecasts prepared by the Bank of Lithuania, Lithuanian economy development should be impacted by contrary factors. As stated in the forecasts in 2016 economy should grow by 2.9 percent. The main positive driving factors possibly will be sustainable recovery of Eurozone countries, growth of sectors oriented in internal consumption, decreasing unemployment, growing average wage and due to before mentioned reasons stable prices. However, there will possibly be plenty of negative factors too. It is possible that difficult economic situation in Russia and Belarus will persist which means continuous decrease in purchasing power of these countries. Furthermore economic growth of other developing countries should be viewed with caution as well. However, western countries, which in the recent years grew their importance in the list of Lithuanian export partners, stays as an alternative for Lithuanian foreign trade.
Despite the slower economy growth Lithuanian stock market has showed solid results, however other Baltic countries had even better results. Riga stock exchange demonstrated the highest growth mainly due to compulsory Ventspils nafta share purchase by its main shareholder for the price significantly higher than the market price at that time.
