Report on the audit of the separate financial statements

Our opinion

In our opinion, the separate financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the separate financial position of Jadran d.d. (the "Company") as at 31 December 2019, and its separate financial performance and its separate cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.

Our opinion is consistent with our additional report to the Audit Committee dated 29 June 2020.

What we have audited

The Company's separate financial statements comprise:

  • the statement of comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2019;
  • the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2019;
  • the statement of changes in equity for the year then ended;
  • the statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and
  • the notes to the financial statements, which include significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the separate financial statements section of our report.

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

Independence

We are independent of the Company in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code). We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IESBA Code.

To the best of our knowledge and belief, we declare that non-audit services that we have provided to the Company are in accordance with the applicable law and regulations in Croatia and that we have not provided non-audit services that are prohibited under Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014.

The non-audit services that we have provided to the Company, in the period from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2019, are disclosed in note 40 to the separate financial statements.

Our audit approach

Overview

Materiality Overall Company materiality: HRK 2,955 thousand, which
represents 3% of total revenues.
Key audit matters Useful life of fixed assets

As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the separate financial statements. In particular, we considered where management made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all of our audits we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including among other matters consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the separate financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Company, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Company operates.

Materiality

The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. An audit is designed to obtain reasonable assurance whether the separate financial statements are free from material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the separate financial statements.

Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality, including the overall materiality for the separate financial statements as a whole as set out in the table below. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, if any, both individually and in aggregate on the separate financial statements as a whole.

Overall Company materiality HRK 2,955 thousand
How we determined it 3 % of total revenues
Rationale for the materiality
benchmark applied
We chose total revenue as the benchmark because the Company is
in a restructuring phase with emphasis on growth, in terms of both
their market share and customer base. In addition, net profit/loss for
previous years was volatile, while revenues are a more consistent
measure of performance.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the separate financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Useful life of fixed asset

See Note 16 to the separate financial statements under the heading "Property, plant and equipment" and note 2.25 under the heading "Correction of errors in prior period financial statements".

As described in Note 2.25 to the separate financial statements, the Company restated accumulated depreciation of buildings and properties in the amount of HRK 104,985 thousand by reducing the value of fixed assets as of 1 January 2018. To support this restatement, the Company recalculated historical depreciation based on the expected useful life of each individual component of buildings and property.

We focused on this area due to the frequency of adaptation and reconstruction of fixed assets and their significance to the financial statements as well as the fact that management used judgement and assumptions to identify and assess individual components of buildings and properties.

To support the calculation of the restatement, management prepared a calculation including detailed breakdown of significant components by individual building and property, and we reconciled the related amounts with the general ledger and fixed asset register as at 1 January 2018.

To verify the accuracy of the restatement calculation, on a sample basis, we agreed the input data used in the model to the historical financial statements, including opening balances and significant additions and disposals.

We reviewed the assumptions used in the model (identification of significant components and their useful lives) by comparing them to assessments performed by independent experts engaged by management. We also checked the reasonableness of assumptions used by comparing the relative sizes of significant components of buildings within similar types of objects.

To assess the reasonableness of the useful lives of the significant components, we held discussions with the management to gain an understanding of assumptions used in determining useful life and their business plans in terms of future adaptions and reconstruction of buildings.

On a sample basis, we also recalculated the depreciation for years 2018 and 2019 of selected fixed assets and their components.

In respect to the restatement of accumulated depreciation and depreciation for the years presented, we verified the completeness and appropriateness of the disclosures in the notes to the separate financial statements.

Reporting on other information including the Management Report

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the Management Report and Corporate Governance Statement, but does not include the separate financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the separate financial statements does not cover the other information.

In connection with our audit of the separate financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the separate financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

With respect to the Management Report and Corporate Governance Statement, we also performed procedures required by the Accounting Act in Croatia. Those procedures include considering whether the Management Report is prepared in accordance with the requirements of Article 21 of the Accounting Act, and whether the Corporate Governance Statement includes the information specified in Article 22 of the Accounting Act.

Based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit, in our opinion:

  • the information given in the Management Report and the Corporate Governance Statement for the financial year for which the separate financial statements are prepared is consistent, in all material respects, with the separate financial statements;
  • the Management Report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Article 21 of the Accounting Act; and
  • the Corporate Governance Statement includes the information specified in Article 22 of the Accounting Act.

If based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor's report and in light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we conclude that there is a material misstatement in the other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the separate financial statements

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

In preparing the separate financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company and or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company and financial reporting process.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the separate financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an independent auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these separate financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the separate financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our independent auditor's report to the related disclosures in the separate financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our independent auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the separate financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the separate financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the separate financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our independent auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

1. SCOPE OF BUSINESS AND GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY

JADRAN Joint Stock Company for hotel industry and tourism, Bana Jelačića 16, Crikvenica (the "Company") is registered with the Commercial Court in Rijeka under Reg. No. (MBS): 040000817. The subscribed share capital of the Company is HRK 482,507,730. Its authorized representatives are Goran Fabris, Chairman of the Management Board, and Karlo Čulo (expiration of mandate 22 May 2020), Management Board Member, who represent the Company solely and independently pursuant to the Decision dated 22 May 2018.

The Company's core business is the provision of accommodation services in hotels, resorts and camps, preparation of food and provision of food services, and preparation and serving of drinks and beverages.

In 2019, the average number of employees was 266 (2018: 304 employees).

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the most significant accounting policies consistently applied in the current year and previous years is provided in the sections below:

2.1. Statement of compliance and basis of presentation

The Company's separate financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU. The financial statements are also in compliance with the Croatian Accounting Act which refers to the IFRS adopted by the EU.

The accounting policies were consistent with those used in the preceding fiscal year, except for accounting policies modified as a result of adopting the new IFRS 16 accounting standard that has been effective as of 1 January 2019.

The separate financial statements have been prepared under the accrual basis to which the effects of transactions are recognized when incurred and are presented in the financial statements for the relevant period and by aaplying the basic accounting assumption of going concern.

The financial statements are presented in the Croatian currency (Croatian Kuna, HRK), which is the Company's functional currency.

The Company will also prepare consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS for the Company and its subsidiaries (the "Group"), which will be approved by the Management Board by 31 July 2020. In the consolidated financial statements, subsidiaries Club Adriatic and Stolist (Note 19) have been fully consolidated. Users of these separate financial statements should read them together with the Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2019 in order to obtain full information on the financial position, results of operations and changes in the financial position of the Group as a whole.

2.2. Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty

Certain estimates were used in the preparation of the financial statements, which affect the presentation of the Company's assets and liabilities, income and expenses, and the disclosure of Company's contingent liabilities.

Future events and their impacts cannot be anticipated with certainty, which is why the actual results may be inconsistent with those estimated. The estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements are subject to change as new events occur, as more experience is gained, additional information and knowledge is obtained, and due to the changing environment in which the Company operate.

The key estimates used in the application of the accounting policies as part of the preparation of the financial statements relate to the accounting for amortisation and depreciation of non-current intangible and tangible assets, impairment of assets, impairment of inventories, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities.

2.3. Going concern

Bankruptcy proceedings were conducted between 2010 and 2014 against the Company. In the course of the bankruptcy proceedings, the Company conducted its business activities and continued to conduct them after its completion. The Commercial Court in Rijeka rendered its Decree No. 14 St-52/2010, which defined that an audit of bankruptcy plan implementation was to be performed and also rendered a Decree in February of 2017 terminating the audit of performance of bankruptcy administrator's, Creditors' Committees' and bankruptcy judge's duties in relation to the bankruptcy plan, which allowed the Company to continue as a going concern. All judicial proceedings brought for the purpose of challenging the bankruptcy plan have been completed.

In 2017 and 2018, the Company proceeded to enter into out-of-court settlements agreement to amicably resolve its disputes with all former employees who committed to withdraw their claims before courts and release the mortgages after their claims are settled, which the Company committed to do in 12 equal installments. The last of these installments became due and payable in September of 2019. The entry into such settlement agreements allowed the Company to continue as a going concern.

The separate financial statements were prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue in business on a going concern basis. As of 31 Dec 2019, the Company's cumulative losses amounted to HRK 119.422 and its current assets exceeded the current liabilities by HRK 76.559.

In earlier years, the Company invested substantial amounts in reconstructions of properties in its portfolio and in improving the portfolio of the services it provides to its customers. The COVID-19 pandemic halted certain investments planned by the Company and affected its financial performance figures in 2020. Details of the impact of COVID-19 are provided in Note 38.

Aiming to minimize the negative impact of the pandemic on its business, the Company has taken measures to reduce its operating costs to the extent possible and adjust to the new situation. For the purpose of efficiently managing its liquidity, the Company has undertaken certain activities which ensure that it remains liquid all year, irrespective of revenue generated in the ordinary course of business in 2020:

  • In June 2020, the Company agreed moratorium on payments with the Croatian Bank for Reconstruction and Development and is in the process of entering into moratorium agreements for loans from Privredna banka Zagreb.
  • The Company entered into annexes to lease agreements, whereby it reduced its lease costs in 2020.
  • The Company is in the process of arranging additional credit facilities with commercial bank in case it should require short-term liquidity.

2.3. Going concern (continued)

  • The Company holds sufficient funds in its bank account (HRK 40,833 thousand as of 27 June 2020).
  • Depending on its operating revenue in 2020, the Company will undertake additional activities in 2021, such as divestment of certain properties if necessary.

2.4. Changes in accounting policies and disclosures

The adopted accounting policies are consistent with those of the previous year, unless otherwise specified and disclosed.

During the year, the Company adopted the following new and amended IFRS and guidelines of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) endorsed by the EU. Where it is assessed whether or not the application of a standard or interpretation affects the Company's financial statements or results, their impact is described below:

First-time adoption of new accounting standards

IFRS 16 Leases

IFRS 16, Leases (published on 12 January 2016 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019). The Company decided to apply the standard as of its required adoption date, i.e. 1 January 2019, by using a modified retrospective approach, without restating the comparative information and using certain simplifications permitted by the standard. Right-ofuse assets are measured at lease liability as of the standard adoption date (adjusted for early repayments or accrued lease cost).

At initial application of IFRS 16, the Company used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:

  • application of a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics;
  • reliance on prior assessments of whether leases are onerous as an alternative to impairment testing there were no onerous leases as of 1 January 2019;
  • accounting for operating leases with a remaining term of less than 12 months as of 1 January 2019 as short-term leases;
  • exclusion of initial direct costs from measuring right-of-use assets as of the initial application date; and
  • using new information when determining the lease term if the lease allows for its extension or termination.

The Company also decided not to reassess whether a contract is or contains a lease as of the initial application date. Instead, the Company relied on their assessment made based on IAS 17 Leases and Interpretations (IFRIC) 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease.

On 1 January 2019, the weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied by the Company to lease liabilities was 3.00%.

As at 1 January 2019, the Company has a finance lease that has been reclassified from Property, plant and equipment to right of use assets (Note 16), and there are no other operating leases that should be recognized in accordance with IFRS 16.

2.4. Changes in accounting policies and disclosures (continued)

The following amended standards have been effective as of 1 January 2019, but did not have a material impact on the Company:

  • IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (published on 7 June 2017 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)
  • Prepayment features with negative compensation Amendments to IFRS 9 (published on 12 October 2017 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019).
  • Amendments to IAS 28 Long-term interests in Associates and Joint Ventures (published on 12 October 2017 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019).
  • Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2015–2017 Cycle Amendments to IFRS 3, IFRS 11, IFRS 12 and IFRS 23 (published on 12 December 2017 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019).
  • Amendments to IAS 19 Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement (published on 7 February 2018 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019).

Several new accounting standards and interpretations were published, which were not required for reporting periods ending on 31 December 2019, and which the Company did not adopt early:

  • Amendments to the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020). The amended Conceptual Framework includes a new chapter on measurement; guidance on reporting financial performance; improved definitions of an asset and a liability, and guidance supporting these definitions; and clarifications in important areas, such as the roles of stewardship, prudence and measurement uncertainty in financial reporting.
  • Definition of Material – Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020). These amendments clarify the definition of material and how it should be applied to include the guidance that was earlier contained elsewhere in IFRS. Furthermore, the explanations accompanying the definition were improved. Finally, the amendments ensure that the definition of material is consistent across IFRSs. Information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity. The Company is assessing the impact of these amendments on its financial statements
  • Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 (published on 26 September 2019 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020). These amendments resulted from the replacement of interest rate benchmarks such as LIBOR and other interbank offered rates (IBORs). The amendments allow for temporary relief from applying certain hedge accounting requirements to hedging relationships directly affected by the IBOR reform. According to IFRS 9 and IAS 39, hedge accounting requires that future hedged cash flows be "highly probable". If such cash flows are dependent upon IBOR, the relief allowed by the amendments requires an entity to assume that the benchmark on which the hedged cash flows are based are not altered as a result of the reform. IAS 39 and IFRS 9 require an estimate of future events to apply hedge accounting. Regardless of the fact that cash flows to which IBOR rates and the rates replacing it are applied are expected to be mostly equal, which reduces any ineffectiveness, this may not be the case any longer as the reform date approaches. According to the amendments, an entity may assume that the benchmark underlying the cash flows of a hedged item, hedging instrument or hedged risk was not affected by the IBOR reform. As a result of the IBOR reform, a hedge may be outside the 80%-125% range mandatory in the context of retrospective testing in accordance with IAS 39. IAS 39 was therefore modified to allow relief from retrospective effectiveness testing by not terminating the hedge during the period of uncertainty caused by IBOR based purely on the fact that retrospective ineffectiveness is outside this range.
  • However, even in such case it would be necessary to satisfy other requirements for applying hedge accounting, including an assessment of anticipated events. In some hedges, the hedged item or hedged risk relates to a component of IBOR not defined by contract. To apply hedge accounting, IFRS 9 and IAS 39 require that the determined risk component be separately identifiable and reliably measurable. According to these amendments, the

2.4. Changes in accounting policies and disclosures (continued)

  • risk component should be separately identifiable at the beginning of establishing a hedging relationship rather than continuously. In the context of macro hedges, where an entity frequently adjusts its hedging relationship, the relief applies as of the time the hedged item is originally determined as part of such hedging relationship. Any hedge ineffectiveness will continue to be recorded in the income statement under both IAS 39 and IFRS 9. The amendments set out triggers for when the reliefs will end, which include the uncertainty arising from interest rate benchmark reform no longer being present. The amendments require entities to provide additional information to investors about their hedging relationships which are directly affected by these uncertainties, including the nominal amount of the hedging instruments to which such reliefs apply, a description of significant assumptions or judgments made in applying the reliefs, and qualitative disclosures of how the IBOR reform is affecting the entity and how the transition process is being managed. The Company is assessing the impact of the amendments to its financial statements.

Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture –

  • Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 (published on 11 September 2014 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after a date to be determined by IASB, not yet approved by the European Union). These amendments address the inconsistency between the requirements of IFRS 10 and requirements of IAS 28 relating to the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The primary consequence of the amendments is that full gain or loss is recognized if the transaction constitutes a business. Partial gain or loss should be recognized if the transaction includes assets that do not constitute a business, even in case of assets of a subsidiary.
  • IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts (published on 18 May 2017 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021, not yet approved by the European Union). IFRS 17 replaces IFRS 4 which allowed companies to continue to recognize their insurance contacts based on the existing practice. This is why investors met with difficulties in comparing the financial performance of otherwise similar insurance companies. IFRS 17 is a standard applying a single principle to the recognition of all types of insurance contracts, including insurers' reinsurance contracts. The standard requires that insurance contract groups be recognized and measured at: (i) the risk adjusted present value of future cash flows (fulfillment cash flows), which includes all available information about the fulfillment cash flows to align it with the available market information; plus (if this value is a liability) or less (if this value is an asset) (ii) an amount representing the unearned profit in the group of contracts (the contractual service margin). Insurers will recognizes profit from a group of insurance contracts over the period the entity provides insurance coverage, and as the entity is released from risk. If a group of contracts is or is expected to be onerous, an entity recognizes the loss immediately.

2.4 Changes in accounting policies and disclosures (continued)

  • Definition of a Business – Amendments to IFRS 3 (published on 22 October 2018 and effective for acquisitions that occur on or after annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020, not yet approved by the European Union). These amendments modify the definition of a business. A business must have inputs and a substantive process and the inputs and process must together significantly contribute to creating outputs. The new guidance provides an assessment framework if such inputs and substantive process exist, including companies in early stages of development, which have not yet generated any outputs. In absence of output, an organized workforce should exist for the purposes of being classified as a business. The amendments narrowed the definitions of a business by focusing the definition of outputs on goods and services provided to customers and other income from ordinary activities, rather than on providing dividends or other economic benefits directly to investors or lowering costs. In addition, it is no longer necessary to assess if market participants can replace the missing elements or integrate the acquired activities and assets. An entity can apply a 'concentration test'. Where substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset (or a group of similar assets), the assets acquired would not represent a business. These amendments relate to future periods and the Company will apply them and assess their impact as of 1 January 2020.

Unless otherwise stated above, these new standards and interpretations are not expected to significantly affect the Company's financial statements.

2.5. Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are presented in the Statement of financial position (balance sheet) at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes the purchase price and all costs directly associated with the bringing of the asset to its condition for the intended use. The costs of current maintenance and repairs, replacements and minor investment maintenance are recognized as expense when incurred. The costs of substantial investment maintenance and replacements are capitalized.

Gains and losses resulting from the retirement or disposal of property, plant and equipment are presented in profit or loss for the period in which they were incurred.

Property under construction is presented at cost less any impairment losses. Depreciation is accounted for as of the time the asset is ready for its intended use. Depreciation is accounted for on a straight-line basis, based on the estimated useful life of the asset, as follows:

Buildings –
buildings made of concrete, metal, stone and brick
20-59 years
Buildings –
buildings made of wood and other materials
20-59 years
Camp infrastructure 20-59 years
Furniture and technological equipment 2-10 years
Vehicles 7 years
Passenger cars 10 years
Office equipment 4-10 years
Caravan equipment 10 years
ICT equipment 5-10 years
Other equipment 2-10 years
Landscaping 10 years

2.6. Intangible assets

Non-current intangible assets include licenses and are carried at cost less amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent costs are only capitalized if they increase future economic benefits associated with the asset. All other costs are carried as costs through profit or loss in the period in which they were incurred. Amortisation costs are recognized through profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated expected useful life of each intangible asset, as of the date it becomes available for use. Intangible assets are amortised using the straight-line method over a period of 5 years.

2.7. Impairment of non-financial assets

Non-financial assets are tested for impairment where an event or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment loss is recognized as the difference between the caring amount of an asset and its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. For impairment estimating purposes, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows.

2.8. Financial assets

The business model reflects how the Company manages its assets to generate cash flows – regardless whether the Company's objective is: (i) solely to collect contractual cash flows from assets ("hold to collect contractual cash flows"); or (ii) both to collect contractual cash flows and cash flows resulting from the sale of assets ("hold to collect contractual cash flows and sell") and if neither is applicable, the financial asset will be classified as part of another business model and measured at fair value through profit or loss.

As at the reporting date, the Company's financial assets comprise receivables.

Impairment of financial instruments

In expected credit loss model (ECL) loss is measured on the basis of reasonable and supportable best information available without undue cost or effort, including information about past events and current and foreseeable future conditions and circumstances. When estimating expected credit loss, historical probabilities of inability to collect are normally used, supplemented with future parameters relevant to credit risk.

A simplified approach to measuring expected credit loss is applied to trade receivables, i.e. measurement on a collective basis, depending on the type of customer, monitored by maturity structure. For example, maturity groups may be defined as follows: not yet due, overdue for 0-90 days, overdue for 90-180 days, etc. Maturity groups are defined in line with the steps taken in the process of collection.

2.9. Inventories

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the average weighted price method. Net realisable value is an estimate of the selling price in the ordinary course of business less costs to sell.

2.10. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash, sight deposits with banks and other short-term, highly liquid instruments maturing in three months or less.

2.11. Borrowings

Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value less transaction costs and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Interest is recognized as expense, except in the case of construction of a qualifying asset, when it is capitalized as part of the asset's cost.

The effective interest rate method is a method to calculate the amortised cost of a financial liability and allocate interest expenses over the accounting period.

Borrowings are classified based on the agreed maturity as current liabilities, or non-current liabilities if they mature in more than 12 months. If the Company have an unconditional right to defer the settlement of a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, such liabilities are classified as non-current liabilities.

The Company derecognize financials liabilities when, and only when, they have been discharged, canceled or have expired.

2.12. Trade payables

Trade payables are amounts relating to goods and services purchased in the ordinary course of business. If the relevant payment is expected within one year, the liability is recognized as a current liability – otherwise, it is recognized as a noncurrent liability. Trade payables are initially recognized at fair value and carried at amortised cost in future periods by using the effective interest rate method.

2.13. Taxes

The tax expense resulting from income tax is the aggregate amount of the current tax liability and deferred taxes.

The current tax liability is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit is different from profit for the period presented in the Income statement because it does not include items of income and expense taxable in other years or nontaxable, i.e. not recognized as expense for income tax purposes. The Company's current tax liability is calculated at the rates effective on the reporting date.

Deferred tax is the amount expected to result in liability or refund based on the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the relevant tax base used to calculate taxable income and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are normally recognized for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent it is likely that taxable income will be available, against which deductible temporary differences and tax losses may be utilised.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent it is no longer probable that a sufficient amount of taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the tax asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is recognize as an expense or income in profit or loss, unless it relates to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case deferred tax is also presented as part of equity.

2.14. Employee benefits

Pension obligations and other post-employment benefits

In the ordinary course of business through salary reductions, the Company make regular payments to mandatory pension funds on behalf of its employees being members as required by law. Such mandatory contributions paid to funds are carried as salary expense when incurred. The Company is not required to provide any other post-employment benefits.

Termination benefits

The Company pay one-time termination benefits to their employees at retirement. The liability and costs of such benefits are determined using the projected unit credit method and discounted to their present value based on calculations made at the end of each reporting period, which take into account the assumptions of the number of employees estimated to become entitled to termination benefits at regular retirement, the estimated cost of such termination benefits, and the discount rate defined as the average anticipated rate of return on investment in government bonds. Actuarial gains and losses resulting from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Long-term employee benefits

The Company recognize the liability for long-term employee benefits (jubilee awards) evenly over the period in which such benefit is earned based on actual years of service. The long-term employee benefit liability is measured at the end of each reporting period based on the assumptions of the number of employees to whom such benefit is to be paid, the estimated cost of such benefits, and the discount rate defined as the average anticipated rate of return on investment in government bonds. Actuarial gains and losses resulting from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

2.15. Provisions

Provisions are recognized if the Company have a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events and if it is likely that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and if the amount of the liability can be reliably estimated. The amounts of provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows by using the discount rate before taxes reflecting the current market estimate of the time value of money and, where applicable, the risks specific to the liability. Where the Company expect a provision to be reimbursed, such reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain.

2.16. Share capital

The Company's share capital comprises ordinary shares. The consideration paid for treasury shares purchased, including all directly attributable transaction costs, is deducted from equity attributable to the Company's shareholders until the shares are withdrawn, reissued or disposed of. When such shares are subsequently disposd of or reissued, any consideration received, net of ay directly attributable transaction costs, is included in equity attributable to Company shareholders.

2.17. Revenue recognition

Revenue is generated from Company's ordinary business operations. A five-step model used for recognition of revenue from contracts with customers is presented below:

Step 1: identify the contract(s) with a customer

Step 2: identify the performance obligations in the contract

Step 3: determine the transaction price

Step 4: allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

Step 5: recognize the revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation

Revenue is recognized for each performance obligation in the contract in the amount of the transaction price. The transaction price is the amount of agreed consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer.

The Company recognize revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, when future economic benefits will flow the Company and when criteria specific to all activities of the Company have been satisfied.

Service income

Income from hotel & tourism services is recognized in the period the services are provided.

Lease income

Lease income is recognized in the period t services are provided using the straight-line method over the term of the lease agreement with the lessors.

Interest income

Interest income is recognized on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest rate method.

2.18. Leases

2.18.1. Leases – effective until 31.12.2018.

Lease are classified as finance leases whenever substantially all the risks and rewards associated with the ownership of the asset are transferred to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

The Company as the lessor

Income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs of negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

The Company as the lessee

Assets held under a finance lease are recognized as Company's asset at fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The associated liability to the lessor is presented in the statement of financial position (balance sheet) as a finance lease liability. Lease payments are allocated among financial costs and the reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the outstanding amount of the liability. These financial costs are recognised directly in profit or loss for the period in which they were incurred.

2.18.2. Leases – effective from 1 January2019

The Company as the lessee

When entering into a lease, the Company assess whether the lease conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. If so, the contract is treated as a lease or as containing a lease. In case any terms of the contract are modified, it is rechecked that the above requirements are satisfied.

The Company determine the lease term as an irrevocable lease term together with the periods covered by the extension option if it is certain that such option will be exercised and periods covered by the termination option if it is certain that such option will not be exercised, with an obligation to reassess on occurrence of material events or material changes in circumstances.

As of the lease commencement date (on which the asset is handed over), the Company recognize it as a right-of-use asset and lease liability.

A right-of-use asset is measured at cost including: the initially measured amount of the lease liability; all lease payments made on or before the lease commencement date less all lease incentives received; and all initial direct costs.

After the lease commencement date, such right-of-use asset is measured by using the cost method, i.e. by reducing the cost by accumulated depreciation on a straight-line basis, where the length of the depreciation period is equal to the lease term (3- 15 years), and all accumulated impairment losses and adjustment for re-measurement of lease liabilities.

Lease liabilities at present value of the lease payments not paid by such date. Lease payments are discounted using the interest rate resulting from the lease or, if such rate cannot be directly determined, using the incremental borrowing rate. The lease liability measurement includes: fixed payments less lease incentives received; variable lease payments depending on an index or a rate; amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees; the price of exercising the purchase option if it is certain; and payment of penalty for lease termination if the lease term shows that the termination option will be exercised.

After the lease commencement date, the lease liability is measured with no regard for changes in interest, lease payments made, and reassessment or modification of the lease.

Short-term leases and leases with low-value underlying assets

The Company decided to apply the relief applicable to the recognition of short-term leases (up to 12 months with no purchase option) and leases where the value of the underlying asset is low (up to HRK 30,000). Lease payments for leases where the underlying asset has a low value are recognized as cost on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company will treat any short-term lease where the lease and/or the lease term are/is modified as a new lease. Such leases largely relate to photocopiers and fire extinguishers.

The Company as lessors

Leases where the Company do not transfer substantially all risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset are classified as operating leases. Lease income is accounted for on a straight-line basis in accordance with the terms of the lease and included in income in the Statement of Comprehensive Income due to its operational nature.

2.19. Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs that directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset, such asset being an asset which necessarily takes substantial time to be ready for the intended use or sale, are added to the cost of such asset until such time the asset is substantially ready for its intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings over the period of their expenditure on a qualifying asset is deducted from the borrowing costs that may be capitalized.

All other borrowing costs are recognized as costs for the period they were incurred in.

2.20. Foreign currencies

Transactions not denominated in Croatian Kuna are initially recognised at the exchange rate applicable at the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the reporting date based using the exchange rate applicable at that date. Translation gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss for the period they were generated/incurred.

2.21. Earnings per share

Earnings per share are accounted for by dividing the profit or loss attributable to Company's shareholders by the average weighted number of ordinary shares during the year.

2.22. Investments in subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all companies in which the Company has the power to direct financial and business policies, normally accompanied by the ownership of more than 50 percent of voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether or not the Company controls another entity. Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less impairment loss.

2.23. Segment reporting

Operating segments are presented in accordance with the internal reports provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker is a person or group allocating resources to operating segments and assessing the performance of a segment in a particular company. The chief operating decision maker is the Management Board of the Company.

2.24. Events after the end of the reporting year

Events after the end of the reporting year providing additional information about the position of the Company as at the date of the financial statements (adjusting events) are reflected in the financial statements. Events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to financial statements, if material.

2.25. Correction of errors in prior year financial information

In accordance with the requirements of International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, the following errors have been corrected in the prior year financial information shown in these financial statements:

  • a) In previous years, the Company did not calculate the depreciation of the hotel buildings based on the useful lives of separately identified significant components of these assets. During 2019, the Company performed an analysis to identify separate significant components and their useful lives in accordance with IAS 16 (Property, plant and equipment). Such analysis was performed based on industry experience in construction & renovation of hotels to identify significant components, and the calculation of the impact on depreciation was performed using historical accounting records dating back to 2003, including all significant additions and disposals up to the current date.
  • b) In addition, in the previous year, the Company did not record a bonus accrual which has been corrected.
  • c) In 2018, the Company purchased receivables of Club Adriatic, that were part of pre-bankruptcy settlement, from its creditors in the total amount of HRK 18,109,205. In 2018, impairment of these receivables was recorded in the total amount of HRK 12,899,977. Based on proposed pre-bankruptcy settlement prepared by Club Adriatic, the Company will recover more of this purchased receivable so correction was made to decrease impairment in amount of HRK 3,334,422.

The above identified errors have been corrected by restating each of the affected financial statement line items for the prior periods as presented in table below:

3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES

In applying the accounting policies described in Note 2, management made certain judgments that had a material impact on the amounts presented in the financial statements (independently from those presented below). These judgments are detailed in the relevant notes and the most significant ones among them relate to:

Estimated useful life of property, plant and equipment

As explained in Note 2.27, the Company, with the assistance of a court expert and specialists, performed an analysis of the useful lives of buildings and their individual components. Based on the performed analysis the Company retroactively changed the life of the buildings and revised the financial statements for 2018. The new estimated useful life of buildings and the corresponding depreciation rates were applied in 2019 as well. When a significant investment in tourism properties (buildings) occurs, the useful life of buildings or their components is reassessed / reviewed.

Provisions for court disputes

The Company is a party to numerous court disputes resulting from its ordinary course of business. These provisions are recorded if there is a present obligation resulting from a past event (taking into account all available evidence, including legal opinions) where it is likely that the settlement of the obligation will require an outflow of resources and if the amount of such obligation can be reliably measured. As at 31 December 2019, provisions for court disputes amounted to HRK 0 (31 December 2018: HRK 0, see Note 25).

Impairment of non-current assets

An impairment test requires an estimate of the value in use of cash generating units if the carrying amount is lower than the net realisable value. Impairment is based on many factors such as changes in market conditions, expected industry growth, increase in capital costs, changes in financing opportunities, amounts paid in comparable transactions, and other changes in circumstances indicating the existence of impairment. The recoverable amount is the higher of the value in use and net realizable value.

Determination of impairment indicators and estimation of future cash flows and determination of fair value of an asset (or a group of assets) requires than management make significant estimates when identifying and valuing impairment indicators, expected cash flows, applicable discount rates, useful lives and residual values.

Leases

As the interest rate included in a lease cannot be determined simply, the Company use their incremental borrowing rate of 3.00% when calculating the lease liability for cash flow discounting purposes.

The Company define a lease term as a period that cannot be canceled, together with the extension option and/or termination option periods, if it is reasonably certain that such option will be exercised (extension) or not exercised (termination).

The Company does not expect to exercise neither the termination nor the extension option and no potential economic effects were calculated in relation to such options.

3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES (CONTINUED)

Impairment of receivables

The Company classify their receivables in Stage 2 and Stage 3 classes. The Stage 2 class includes recognized expected credit losses possible for the entire life of the receivable (lifetime credit losses). Lifetime credit losses are calculated on the basis of a matrix for expected credit losses and applied collectively to all Stage 2 receivables. The Stage 3 class included receivables found to be irrecoverable after due analysis, the value of which will be individually adjusted up to the expected recoverable amount. At the end of each year, the Inventory Committee reexamines the recoverability of receivables and adjustments are made according to the information gathered from Sales and Legal Departments, depending on the maturity of the receivables.

The Company did not recognize any expected credit losses for receivables.

Fair value measurement

The carrying amount of trade receivables less provisions for the impairment and trade payables approximates their fair value. For long-term debts, market prices of similar instruments on an active market are used.

Fair value hierarchy

IFRS 13 determines the hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market information obtained from independent sources, whereas unobservable inputs reflect the Company's market assumptions. These two types of inputs result in the following fair value hierarchy:

  • Level 1 quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  • Level 2 inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).
  • Level 3 inputs for the asset or liability not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Capital risk management

The Company manage their capital to ensure that they will be able to continue as a going concern while increasing the returns for shareholders by optimizing the debt-to-equity ratio. The Company's capital structure comprises the share capital, statutory reserves, retained earnings and profit for the year.

Financial risk factors

The activities undertaken by the Company expose them to various financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company have no formal risk management program in place and all risk management activities are undertaken by the Management Board and Company's management.

Market risk

The Company's activities are primarily exposed to the financial risk of variations in exchange rates of foreign currencies and interest rates (see below). Exposure to market risk is managed by conducting sensitivity analyses. There were no changes in Company's exposure to market risk or how risk is managed and measured.

Currency risk management

The Company conduct certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies and are consequently exposed to foreign exchange variations. The carrying amounts of the Company's assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are as follows:

Company Assets Liabilities
31 Dec 2018 31 Dec 2019 31 Dec 2018 31 Dec 2019
EUR 13,892,313 8,713,988 82,444,132 205,485,562

4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

Analysis of foreign currency sensitivity

The Company is exposed to currency risk in case the exchange rate for euro (EUR) changes. The table below presents an analysis of the effect of HRK exchange rate variations by 10% in relation to EUR. 10% is the rate used for Management Board's internal reporting of foreign currency risk and is a Management Board's assessment of the reasonably possible foreign exchange variations. Such analysis is only conducted for receivables and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and presents their value adjustment at the end of the period for foreign exchange variations by 10%. The sensitivity analysis includes third-party loans denominated in a currency other that the lender's or borrower's currency. The positive/negative amounts below indicate an increase in profit or other capital if HRK gains in value in relation to another relevant currency by 10%. If HRK weakens by 10% in relation to another relevant currency, the effect would be the same, only negative.

In HRK 2018 2019
EUR exchange rate variation by +10%
Gain or loss 9,633,644 21,419,955
EUR exchange rate variation by -10%
Gain or loss (9,633,644) (21,419,955)

Interest rate risk management

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk as they enter into loan agreements with variable interest rates. Company's exposure to interest rates based on financial assets and liabilities is detailed under Liquidity Risk Management. The Company manage this risk my maintaining an appropriate ratio of loans with fixed and variable interest rates in its loan portfolio.

Interest rate sensitivity analysis

The cash flow interest rate risk is the risk that the cost of interest under financial instruments will change over time. The Company is not exposed to interest rate risk because most financial liabilities have fixed interest rates.

Analysis of sensitivity to changes in useful life

By using a particular asset, the Company use the economic benefits contained in that asset, which diminish more intensely as a result of its economic and technological aging. In addition to considering the anticipated use based on physical usage when determining the useful life of an asset, it is necessary to take into account any changes in demand on the tourism market, which will accelerate economic obsolescence and the intensity of new technology development.

Based on this, conducting business in the hotel industry requires making increasingly frequent investments, which corroborates the fact that the useful life of the asset is reduced.

The useful life of an asset must be periodically revised to see if there are any circumstances warranting a change in an estimate in relation to a previous estimate. If identified, such changes in estimate will be presented in future periods through an adjusted depreciation charge over the remaining revised useful life.

In 2019, the Company adjusted the useful life of its construction assets, including the relevant equipment and other assets, in line with the trends prevailing in the hotel industry.

If the useful life of property, plant and equipment were 10% longer, with all other variables held constant, net profit for the year would be higher by HRK 1,261 thousand and the net carrying amount of property, plant and equipment would be higher by HRK 1,538 thousand.

If the useful life of property, plant and equipment were 10% shorter, with all other variables held constant, net profit for the year would be lower by HRK 1,261 thousand and the net carrying amount of property, plant and equipment would be lower by HRK 1,539 thousand.

4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

Credit risk management

Credit risk relates to the risk that the counterparty will default on its contractual obligations, which would result in financial loss for the Company. The Company constantly monitor their exposure to the parties they conduct business with and their credit ratings and allocate the total value of transactions among acceptable customers.

The carrying amount of financial assets presented in the financial statements, less impairment losses, represents the maximum exposure of the Company to credit risks without accounting for the value of collateral received.

Liquidity risk management

The Management Board is ultimately responsible for liquidity risk management and the Management Board has established an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of short-term, mid-term and long-term Company's needs for liquidity management. The Company manage this risk by maintaining adequate reserves, by obtaining loans from banks and other sources of funding, by continuous monitoring the forecast and actual cash flows, and by comparing maturity profiles of assets andliabilities.

The table below details the remaining contractual maturities for the Company for non-derivative financial assets. The table was made on the basis of undiscounted cash flows of financial assets including interest thereon to be earned, other than assets for which the Company expects cash flows to be generated in a different period.

The table below details the remaining contractual maturities for the Company for non-derivative financial liabilities. The table was made on the basis of undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company may be required to settle the liabilities.

The table below details the remaining agreed maturities of Company's non-derivative financial liabilities. The table was prepared on the basis of undiscounted cash flows based on the earliest date the Company may be required to pay.

35. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

After the bankruptcy proceeding was completed in 2014, the Company continued to conduct all court disputes initiated at the time of bankruptcy, as well as those the Company did not manage to resolve during the bankruptcy period. Most legal actions related to claims brought by employees for failure to pay wages owed since before the year 2000. At the time the bankruptcy proceeding was initiated, 565 creditors notified the bankruptcy administrator that they were also secured creditors of the debtor in bankruptcy and that they held registered mortgages over Company's assets at the time the bankruptcy proceeding was opened. In the course of the bankruptcy proceeding, agreements for the release of mortgages were reached with most creditors however 99 creditors with registered mortgages over Company assets remained on completion of the bankruptcy proceeding. The bankruptcy administrator brought 22 legal actions against these creditors to challenge their right to separate satisfaction against Company assets. The Company was not successful in these disputes – in 2017 and 2018 the Company entered into out-of-court settlement agreements for amicable resolution of mutual disputes. These settlement agreements were entered into with all former employees who agreed to withdraw their legal actions and release the mortgages after their claims are paid, which the Company committed to pay in 12 equal installments.

Pursuant to the settlement agreements signed, the Company made the relevant payments to its former employees and the relevant registered mortgages/pledged and annotations were removed from the land registry. The Company took legal action against a former employee with whom no settlement agreement was reached.

The process of Company's transformation and the Property Statement Resolution issued by the Croatian Privatization Fund resulted in unresolved proprietary matters. For the purpose of resolving such proprietary matters regarding its properties, the Company initiated individual corrective processes to align the land registry status with the actual status of the properties, as well as processes to establish title.

Modular structures owned by third parties were illegally mounted on part of assets owned by the Company, namely in Selce Campsite and Kačjak Camping Site. As the owners of such modular structures refuse to remove them and surrender the plots, the Company took legal action for the purpose of repossessing the land/plots. Company's repossession of these plots is a condition precedent to continuing its investment cycle at these two highly attractive locations (Kačjak Resort and Selce Campsite).

As regards other court proceedings, the Company is a party to proceedings for the restitution of and compensation for property seized and enforcement proceedings to collect debt owed to it by third parties.

36. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

38. EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic

Up to the COVID-19 outbreak, the preliminary activities for the 2020 season had been successful. However, in March of 2020, after the pandemic escalated and special measures and recommendations were issued by the Croatian Civil Protection HQ and the relevant institutions in the neighboring countries, accommodation and convention bookings began to be canceled. The Company temporarily closed hotel facilities already opened and did not open the planned hotel facilities on/after 18 March 2020 until the first opening that occurred on 11 May 2020 (Inter Coffee Shop), then on 22 May 2020 (Selce Campsite), and then on 29 May 2020 (Hotel Esplanade and Kačjak Camping Site). The Company is certain to incur losses as a result of the pandemic and the prescribed measures and these can currently not be quantified considering the nature of the pandemic and dependence on decisions of relevant institutions. As regards revenue, the Company earned HRK 5,255,141 in the first five months of 2020 compared to HRK 15,469,835 as planned and HRK 12,369,684 earned last year. This is a result of missing the Easter Holiday season, the agreed MICE and arrivals of pre-season groups announced.

The COVID-19 pandemic has directly affected the Company's liquidity after the measures suspending hospitality activities were imposed, i.e. from mid-March 2020, during which period the Company obtained no revenue from its core business. To maintain a level of liquidity necessary to allow it to pay all its obligations to suppliers, employees, banks and other institutions, the Company drew down HRK 30,666,386 from Erste & Steiermärkische bank d.d.

Complying with such Government measures, the Company kept its hotels closed from March 2020 to May 2020. To face the economic burden of the containment measures on the economy, on 9 April 2020 the Croatian Government announced a program of state aids to contain the adverse effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on the economy. As part of this program, the Company applied for and received an employment protection and job preservation measure designed for industries affected by COVID-19. The aid was granted for the March-May 2020 period. The Company also applied for an extension of tax and contribution payments to maintain its current liquidity.

The leases where the Company appears as the lessee were renegotiated to protect liquidity, but also to ensure the financial feasibility of the leases.

The Company considers this as a event after balance sheet date that doesn't require adjustment.

New leasing arrangements

On 20 February 2020 the Company, based on the lease contracts signed with the property owners, entered into possession of the accommodations, as follows:

  • Hotel Lišanj, 168 accommodation units and Hotel Horizont, 60 accommodation units, in Novi Vinodolski;

  • Hotel NOEMIA in Baška Voda, 63 accommodation units;

  • Garden Palace Resort Bella Natura in Umag, 112 accommodation units - apartments.

The three-year lease contract for the Lišanj and Horizont hotels commenced on the date of signing, i.e. property handover (20 February 2020). The lease contract for the Noemia hotel has been signed for a term of 15 years, commencing on the effective date of the lease, which is 1 June 2020. The lease agreement for the Garden Palace Resort Bella Natura hotel complex has been signed for a term of 10 years commencing on the effective date of the lease, which is 1 April2020.

After entering into possession of the leased accommodations the Issuer has increased its capacity by 403 accommodation units.

Thanks to the investment cycle, the structure of capacities by class was improved in 2019 compared to the preceding year because the Company had Hotel Ad Turres reclassified as a 3* hotel (it had been classified as a 2* hotel until 2019) and had the Ad Turres pavilions reclassified as a resort (they were classified as 2* rooms for rental until 2019).

56% of all accommodations are classified as 3*, 19% are classified as 4*, and 24% are classified as 2*.

The Company's portfolio covers the entire Crikvenica Riviera (from Dramalj, where Kačjak is located, to Selce, where Hotel Katarina, Hotel Selce and Selce Camp are located) and, as of 2019, Omišalj on the Island of Krk where Delfin Boarding House is located.

3. REALIZED OVERNIGHTS

In 2019, the Company recorded a total of 391,922 overnights, which is 3.29% less than the number of overnights recorded by the Company in 2018. By type of facility, in 2019 hotels recorded a total of 214,779 overnights, which is 11.53% more than in 2018, resorts recorded 6.8% less overnights than in 2018 (91,937 overnights), and camps recorded a total of 85,206 overnights, which is 25.27% less than in 2018. The chart below presents the overnight trends by type of facility in 2018 and 2019.

In late 2018 and throughout 2019, Jadran continued with its investment cycle including investments in Selce Camp, Hotel Katarina, Ad Turres Resort, Hotel Omorika, and Kačjak Resort. The investments in Hotel Omorika, Hotel Katarina (except for the outdoor pools) and in Kačjak Resort were completed before these properties were scheduled to open, whereas the investments in Ad Turres Resort and Selce Camp were completed by August (Ad Turres), but suspended in June in Selce Camp, which also affected the number of overnights recorded. In addition, as swimming pools are being built in Selce Camp at the location where camping plots were in 2018, the camp's capacities were reduced, which was the main reason for less overnights.

In addition to replacing furniture in rooms and interior and exterior joinery and renovating the restaurant, the 2018/2019 investment in Hotel Omorika resulted in complete refurbishment of 2 pavilions that belonged to Ad Turres Resort and were merged into Hotel Omorika in 2019. The capacity of Hotel Omorika was thus increased from 115 accommodations in 2018 by 54 accommodations in 2 annexes to a total capacity of 169 accommodations and 350 bed-places in 2019.

Hotel Omorika recorded the greatest increase in the number of overnights in 2019 compared to the preceding year, however, such increase in capacity was one of the reasons for the increase, so a realistic comparison of overnights will be possible from 2020 onwards.

Hotel International, which recorded 29.84% overnights more than it did in the preceding year, was used to accommodate workers hired for investments in Company's hotels until May, so this 30% increase is a result thereof.

The implementation of a more aggressive commercial policy including the establishment of an internal call center and turning to online agencies resulted in recording the greatest increase in the number of overnights in 2019 compared to the preceding year in the online segment for hotels and resorts. The number of allotment guests remained roughly on the same level as in 2018, whereas the number of guests arriving based on fixed bookings and groups decreased.

During the analyzed 7-year period, the average overnight growth rate was 1.72%, the occupied accommodation growth rate was 2.2%, the arrivals growth rate was 3.27%, whereas the stay length growth rate was negative, which means that the length of stay reduced during this period from 2.35 days in 2013 to 2.21 days in 2019.

In 2019, foreign guests accounted for 79% of Jadran's overnights in 2019 and domestic guests accounted for 21%. In 2019, these foreign guests mainly arrived from Czech Republic, Slovenia, Germany, Slovakia, Hungary, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Poland, and Italy.

4. COMPANY BUSINESS PERFORMANCE

In 2019, the Company earned total revenue of HRK 109,934,128, which is 18% more than in 2018. Total expenses were 114,708,497, which is 7% more than the expenses incurred in 2018. In 2019, the Company incurred a loss of HRK 4,774,369, which is 64% less than the loss incurred in 2018. EBITDA was HRK 15,165,401, HRK 13,967,408 more than the EBITDA obtained in 2018.

Errors made in the preceding year were restated in 2019 – total costs were adjusted by HRK 575,553, thus reducing them from HRK 107,370,433 to HRK 106,794,879. Total revenue for 2018 was not adjusted.

Total operating revenue was HRK 109,126,411, 19% more than the revenue obtained in 2018, with sales revenue rising by 14% and totaling HRK 98,585,084 and other revenue of HRK 10,541,327 exceeding that earned in 2018 by 104%.

In 2019, the Company particularly focused on the effective management of its noncore assets, which results in lease income of HRK 3,967,653, 43% more compared to the same period in 2018.

The increase in Company's revenue in 2019 is largely a result of two factors: the new investment cycle and higher prices resulting from higher facility and service quality levels. The first factor allowed the Company to become more competitive and raise its prices based on raising the facility and service quality levels. The second one allowed the Company to increase its revenue through more aggressive sales of accommodation capacities via direct channels.

It should be taken into account that, due to a number of objective circumstances, the investment cycle was not completely implemented, with only HRK 92 million of the HRK 132.6 million reserved having been invested so far. It should also be underlined that some of the accommodation capacities were not operational until early August and Hotel Ad Turres was closed the entire year.

Financial income earned in 2019 was HRK 807,717, 54% less than such income obtained in 2018.

In 2019, the Company incurred total operating costs of HRK 110,901,829, which is 7% more than the costs incurred in 2018. The greatest increase was recorded in service costs – in 2019 they amounted to HRK 25,154,893, 24% more compared to 2018, primarily relating to investment planning, development and management costs.

In 2019, the costs of raw materials and supplies totaled HRK 19,334,816, which is approximately on the same level as recorded in 2018.

In 2019, the personnel costs amounted to HRK 35,090,276, which is 4% more than the costs incurred in 2018. It should be considered that, between June and August 2019, Jadran paid its employees an incentive equaling 6% of their salaries, which increased the average salary paid by 12%, and paid its

employees performance-based bonuses, children's gifts, holiday benefits and Christmas bonus totaling HRK 1,953,527, which means that the Company paid a total of HRK 2,357,053 for these items this year.

Other operating expenses incurred in 2019 amounted to HRK 12,530,784, 88% more than the expenses incurred in 2018. This increase is for the most part a result of costs relating to business consolidation, development and investments, which are largely one-time costs.

Between January and December of 2019, the Company obtained operating EBITDA of HRK 15,165,401. A series of activities were undertaken in the course of the year to adjust the present value and consolidate business on a long-term basis, which resulted in one-time costs of HRK 10,252,255. Normalized EBITDA was HRK 25,417,656, 61% more than that obtained in the same period in 2018. EBITDA was normalized for one-off items.

5. ASSET MANAGEMENT

5.1. Management of Company assets

Jadran d.d. manages the immovable properties owned by it, namely eight hotels, a camp, a camping site, and two resorts.

In 2018, negotiations were launched with the owners of Hotel Delfin on the Island of Krk and 3 pavilions within Ad Turres Resort for the purpose of entering into long-term leases and were completed in early 2019, resulting in an increase in Company's capacities by 129 accommodations/177 bed-places.

In 2019, Jadran entered into negotiations with the owners of Hotel Lišanj in Novi Vinodolski, including a hotel with 168 accommodations and Horizont Annex with 60 accommodations. Negotiations were also started with the owners of Hotel Noemia in Baška Voda with 63 accommodations and the owners of Garden Palace Resort Bella Natura in Umag, having a capacity of 112 accommodations (apartments).

On 20 February 2020, Hotel Lišanj in Novi Vinodolski with 168 accommodations was handed over pursuant to the Lease Agreement entered into with Hotel Lišanj d.d. This agreement also provides for the lease of the hotel's Horizont Annex, which Jadran committed to take over as soon as it is renovated.

The Company entered into a lease for a complex named Garden Palace Resort Bella Natura in Umag and for Hotel Noemia in Baška Voda, of which it notified the public via Zagreb Stock Exchange on 20 February 2020.

The lease for the Garden complex in Umag was entered into for a term of 10 years after the lease start date, i.e. 1 April 2020, or the date the lessor obtains all required operating permits and authorizations. Until the handover date and the start date of the lease, Jadran d.d. will manage this property based on a so-called management agreement.

The lease for Hotel Noemia was made for a term of 15 years following the property handover date. The handover is scheduled for 1 July 2020. The lease allows Jadran d.d. to transfer its rights and obligations under the lease to Club Adriatic d.o.o., which it did on 17 June 2020.

Including the new properties managed by the Company since 2020, the Company now manages a total of 2,279 accommodations and 5,538 bed-places.

5.2. Company's disputes

On completion of the bankruptcy proceeding in 2014, the Company continued to conduct all judicial proceedings brought at the time it was bankrupt, as well as those it did not manage to resolve in the course of the bankruptcy proceeding. Most of these proceedings were claims submitted by employees for nonpayment of salaries for periods before the year 2000. At the time the bankruptcy was opened, 565 creditors had notified the bankruptcy administrator that they were also the debtor's secured creditors, i.e. that they held registered mortgages over Company's assets at the time the bankruptcy proceeding was brought.

In the course of the bankruptcy proceeding, agreements were reached with most of these creditors, based on which mortgages were released, however, 99 creditors holding mortgages over Company's assets remained as of the bankruptcy closure date. The bankruptcy administrator brought 22 legal actions to challenge their right of separate satisfaction against Company's assets. These legal actions did not have a positive outcome vis-à-vis the Company and the Company entered into out-of-court settlement agreements to amicably resolve such disputes in 2017 and 2018. Settlement agreements were entered into with all former employees who had committed to withdraw their judicial claims and release the mortgages after their claims are settled, which the Company committed to pay in 12 equal installments. The last of these installments became due and payable in September of 2019.

Pursuant to the settlement agreements reached, the Company made the relevant payments to its former employees and the relevant mortgages/pledges and annotations were removed from the land registry. The Company took legal action against a former employee with whom no settlement agreement was reached.

The process of Company's transformation and the Property Statement Resolution issued by the Croatian Privatization Fund resulted in unresolved proprietary matters. For the purpose of resolving such proprietary matters regarding its properties, the Company initiated individual corrective processes to align the land registry status with the actual status of the properties, as well as processes to establish title.

Modular structures owned by third parties were illegally mounted on part of assets owned by the Company, namely in Selce Camp and Kačjak Camping Site. As the owners of such modular structures refuse to remove them and surrender the plots, the Company took legal action for the purpose of repossessing the land/plots.

The Company is involved in three judicial processes concerning the establishment of title to two restaurants that had been in Company's possession until 2006 and which the Company then leased out. Pursuant to the Decision of Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, these properties were made available to third parties and the Company received no indemnification, considering that the Company had built and maintained these properties until they were leased. These processes are conducted against the City of Crikvenica and the Republic of Croatia.

The Company is also involved in several disputes with the City of Crikvenica regarding proprietary matters.

The Company needs to repossess the plots at Selce Camp and Kačjak Camping Site to be able to continue the investment cycle at these two highly attractive locations and further development of the investment cycle is contingent upon the resolution of the restaurants' status and disputes with the City of Crikvenica.

As regards other court proceedings, the Company is a party to proceedings for the restitution of and compensation for property seized and enforcement proceedings to collect debt owed to it by third parties.

6. FUTURE INVESTMENTS

In 2019, the Company continued with its investment cycle launched in 2018 and successfully completed the following capital investments:

  • Full refurbishment of 12 pavilions within Ad Turres Resort classified as a 3* resort and Hotel Ad Turres classified as a 3* hotel.

  • The works on the construction of new pitches at Selce Camp continued, sanitary facilities are being renovated and the works on the swimming pools continue for the purpose of having the camp reclassified to 4*.
  • 33 new Mobile Homes had been planned to be purchased, however, only 13 Mobile Homes were purchase due to the COVID-19 outbreak for the purpose of maintaining Company's liquidity, while the rest were set up in cooperation with agencies/partners.
  • The renovation works in two pavilions at Slaven continue, including full redesign of all bathrooms for the purpose of obtaining 3* status.
  • The interior redesign works in the north-facing rooms and on the north façade of Hotel Katarina continue.
  • The Company plans to fully redesign the outdoor swimming pool at Ad Turres Resort, including the machine room.

7. EXPOSURE TO RISKS

The primary risks in the business of Jadran d.d. are:

Competition risk

Competition risk in the tourism market is very high because other similar tourism destinations have invested substantial funds in the growth and development of their capacities, as well as in other marketing activities focused on tourist arrivals. Among other things, competition is based on the prices, quality and substance of tourism offerings in Crikvenica Riviera and other domestic and foreign tourism destinations. To increase its market competitiveness, the Company launched a new investment cycle in 2018 and continued with it in 2019, which includes not only investments in accommodations to increase the number of units and improve accommodation quality, but also investments in the destination through active involvement in all events and designing new attractions in Crikvenica Riviera.

Currency risk

Currency risk is very much present in the Company's and Group's business considering the large share of foreign business and negotiation of prices in a foreign currency. The Company also incurs costs based on a currency clause (loan obligations).

Interest rate risk

The Company and the Group are exposed to interest rate risk because they enter into loan agreements with banks with variable interest rates, which exposes the Company and the Group to higher risk.

Settlement risk

Settlement risk is present in all bilateral transactions. Considering that the performance of monetary obligations to the issuers is one of the key elements necessary for uninterrupted business, the Company and the Group give high importance to this risk. The Company and the Group have established stringent procedures to minimize collection risks. During the pandemic, certain partners may be further exposed to liquidity risk, which may result in higher settlement risk. In addition, settlement risk arising from executed contracts may be significantly increased if there is an option of terminating them on grounds of force majeure or in case free movement of persons and goods is interrupted during the pandemic.

Inflation risk

Inflation risk is present in contractual relationships where the price of a service or product is indexed and tied to Croatian National Bank's strong HRK policy. As this is an external risk, the ability to eliminate it is minimal. For the purpose of minimizing inflation risk, the Company and the Group insist on negotiating fixed terms of supply with all suppliers where possible. Suppliers of energy are an exception – their prices are subject to stock exchange variations.

Liquidity risk

The Company and the Group manage this risk by maintaining adequate reserves and by obtaining loans from banks and using other sources of funding, by constantly monitoring planned and actual cash flows, and by comparing maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The Company and the Group are particularly focused on this risk due to increased uncertainty regarding revenues as a result of the pandemic's adverse impact on the free movement of guests, guests' spending power, and performance of contractual obligations by business partners.

Risk of tax and concession legislation developments

The risk of tax and concession legislation developments is the likelihood that legislative authorities will amend tax legislation in a way that they adversely impact the Company's and Group's profitability. This risk is reflected in potential changes in tax rates and taxable assets, as well as in changes in regulations concerning concessions and concessional authorizations. The right to use a maritime domain is one of the significant conditions precedent to further operation of the Company and the Group and the Company and the Group have actively endeavored to establish new bases for cooperation with the local community in this segment. During the pandemic, the Company and the Group hope that the legislator, the relevant executive authorities and the local community will, in addition to the measures absolutely necessary to protect people's health, offer various financial and operational reliefs to entities suffering a significant adverse impact of the pandemic.

Tourism industry risk

Tourism trends are largely affected by the broader political situation, growth of terrorism, the global financial crisis and the pandemic. As an industry, tourism is highly sensitive to the state of security at the destination and its surroundings. After the risk in some rival destinations was reduced (e.g. Turkey, Greece), the competitive position of both Croatian tourism and the Company has become additionally weakened. By launching the aforementioned investment cycle, the Company will endeavor to minimize the impact of adverse market trends and the resulting risks.

The global financial crisis may significantly reduce the spending power of individuals inclined to traveling, whereas a pandemic may also significantly reduce or completely eliminate the effects of tourist arrivals at the Company's destination as a result of the inability to travel outside one's own country or fear for own health and future.

Environmental risk

Environmental risk may significantly affect the Company's and Group's performance, notably through the quality of the sea and coast where guests stay. Climate change may directly affect the length of stay in Company's and Group's accommodation facilities. This risk also includes other natural disasters.

8. EMPLOYEES

As of 31 December 2019, Jadran d.d. had a total of 178 employees. 150 of them were employed on a permanent basis and 28 were employed on a temporary basis. The average number of employees in 2019 was 266 (304 in 2018).

9. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

The Company constantly monitors developments in its environment and invests in market research, identification of business opportunities, and new acquisitions. The Company directs and supports its affiliate's activities.

10. OWN SHARE REDEMPTION

As of 31 December 2019, the Company's share capital was HRK 482,507,730, divided into 27,971,463 common dematerialized shares with no nominal value, and the Company held 631 own shares, which accounted for 0.0023% of the Company's share capital.

11. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE YEAR END

On 19 December 2019, the Commercial Court in Zagreb rendered its Decree No. Stpn-217/2015, which authorized the pre-bankruptcy settlement agreement between CLUB ADRIATIC d.o.o. as the debtor and its creditors. The Decree was not appealed, so the Commercial Court in Zagreb rendered on 15 January 2020 its Resolution No. Stpn-217/2015-30 establishing that the Decree Confirming the Pre-Bankruptcy Settlement Agreement became effective on 8 January 2020.

Pursuant to the Shareholders' Meetings Resolution dated 16 December 2019, PROSPERUS-INVEST d.o.o., acting for and on behalf of PROSPERUS FGS, paid a contribution of HRK 57,104,500 on 11 February 2020, within 60 days of the effective date of the Decree authorizing the pre-bankruptcy settlement agreement.

This share capital increase by cash contribution was registered in the Court Registry of the Commercial Court in Zagreb on 27 February 2020 and Club Adriatic d.o.o. has as of that date been entitled to utilize the funds intended for share capital increase to pay creditor claims in such amounts as defined by the pre-bankruptcy settlement agreement.

Pursuant to the Lease Agreement with Hotel Lišanj d.d., Hotel Lišanj in Novi Vinodolski with 168 accommodations was handed over on 20 February 2020. This Agreement also provides for the lease of the hotel's Horizont Annex, which Jadran committed to take over following its renovation.

The Company entered into a lease for a complex named Garden Palace Resort Bella Natura in Umag and for Hotel Noemia in Baška Voda, of which it notified the public via Zagreb Stock Exchange on 20 February 2020.

The lease for the Garden complex in Umag was entered into for a term of 10 years after the lease start date, i.e. 1 April 2020, or the date the lessor obtains all required operating permits and authorizations. Until the handover date and the start date of the lease, Jadran d.d. will manage this property based on a so-called management agreement.

The lease for Hotel Noemia was made for a term of 15 years following the property handover date. The handover is scheduled for 1 July 2020. The lease allows Jadran d.d. to transfer its rights and obligations under the lease to Club Adriatic d.o.o., which it did on 17 June 2020.

The preparatory activities undertaken up to 11 March 2020, when the World Health Organization announced the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, were successful. In response to the potentially serious threat posed by COVID-19 to public health, the Government of the Republic of Croatia took measures to contain the epidemic, including restrictions on cross-border movement of people and on entry of foreign visitors, as well as a lockdown of certain industries pending further developments. Namely, railways stopped carrying passengers and schools, universities, hotels, restaurants, cinemas, theaters, museums, sporting facilities and retail establishments other than grocery stores and pharmacies were closed.

Complying with such Government measures, the Company kept its hotels closed from March 2020 to May 2020. To face the economic burden of the containment measures on the economy, on 9 April 2020 the Croatian Government announced a program of state aids to contain the adverse effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on the economy. As part of this program, the Company applied for and received an employment protection and job preservation measure designed for industries affected by COVID-19. The aid was granted for the March-May 2020 period. The Company also applied for an extension of tax and contribution payments to maintain its current liquidity.

To ensure business without interruption and maintain its liquidity, the Company's Management Board implemented several measures to rationalize costs, capital expenditures and cash outflows. These measures include:

  • Personnel cost rationalization taking holidays and days of leave, work from home and, in agreement with our social partners, reduction of salaries for employees who do not work.
  • Postponement of hiring seasonal workers (seasonal workers account for roughly 50 percent of the workforce).
  • Suspension of investment to the extent that it does not compromise the operation of facilities and performance of obligations to business partners.
  • Operating cost rationalization purchases of low-value items were canceled, maintenance and landscaping costs were deferred and reduced, etc.

• The leases where the Company appears as the lessee were adjusted to protect liquidity, but also to ensure the financial feasibility of the leases.

The Company and the Group operate in the hospitality industry which has been significantly affected by the COVID-19 outbreak. Based on information publicly available as of the date these financial statements were approved, the Management Board considered the potential spreading of COVID-19 and the anticipated impact on the Company and its economic setting, including measures already taken by the Government of the Republic of Croatia.

Despite reduced revenues and cash inflows in 2020, the Management Board of the Company estimated that it would have sufficient funds available to meet its obligations becoming due and payable in the foreseeable future. Consequently, the Company does not anticipate any direct and significant adverse impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on its ability to continue as a going concern.

On 22 May 2020, the term awarded to Mr. Karlo Čulo as a Management Board Member expired.

12. RELATIONS WITH AFFILIATES

HRK 588,238 of revenue was earned on transactions with affiliates during the relevant period and the costs incurred during this period amounted to HRK 24,574. As of 31 December 2019, receivables from affiliates totaled HRK 24,079,082 and Company's liabilities to affiliates totaled HRK 140,586.
