The financial year of the Company and other Group companies coincides with the calendar year.

The accounting principles applied in preparing the condensed interim financial statements are the same as those applied in preparing the financial statements for 2014.

2.2 New and amended standards, and interpretations

There were no new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations applicable to the Company and the Group since 2015 and having a significant impact on this financial statements.

2.3 Principles of consolidation

Subsidiary is an entity directly or indirectly controlled by the Company. The Company controls an entity when it can or has a the right to receive a variable returns from this relation and it can have impact on these returns due to the power to govern the entity to which the investment is made.

The consolidated financial statements of the Group include LITGRID AB and its subsidiaries. The financial statements of the subsidiaries have been prepared for the same reporting periods, using uniform accounting policies.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date from which effective direct or indirect control is transferred to the Company. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. All intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains and losses on transactions among the Group companies are eliminated.

2.4 Business combinations between entities under common control

IFRS 3, 'Business combinations' is not applied to business combinations between entities under common control, therefore such business combinations are accounted for using the pooling of interest method of accounting. The Group does not restate assets and liabilities to their fair value as at the acquisition date, instead the Group combines the acquired assets and liabilities at their carrying amounts. No goodwill arises and the excess of the consideration paid or the carrying amount of net assets transferred over the consideration received or the carrying amount of net assets acquired is recorded directly in equity in the financial statements.

2.5 Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations

The Group classifies non-current assets and disposal groups as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale rather than through continuing use. Such non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.

The criteria for held for sale classification is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Actions required to complete the sale should indicate that it is unlikely that the sale with be withdrawn. Management must be committed to the sale expected within one year from the date of the classification. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately as current items in the statement of financial position.

2.6 Functional currency

The Group's functional currency changed on 1 January 2015, the date of the introduction of the euro into the Republic of Lithuania. The recalculation of the litas to the euro has been applied at the litas to euro exchange rate of 3.45280 litas for 1 euro, which was irrevocably set by the EU Council.
