Consequently, that subsidiary from June 15th 2023 (registration-date of the Decision to G.E.MI.) and onwards ceases to pursue its objective and operates exclusively for the liquidation purpose.
On June 20, 2023 the Company proceeded with the issuance of a bond loan of total amount of € 15,0 million in order to refinance its existing borrowing and cover its working-capital needs. The loan term is for one year with a possible extension for a further two years. The loan has been granted by "National Bank of Greece SA".
On June 27, 2023 the Group's subsidiary "KENFOOD SA" proceeded with the issuance of a bond loan of total amount of € 3,5 million in order to refinance its existing borrowing and cover its working-capital needs. The loan term is for one year with a possible extension for a further two years. The loan has been granted by "National Bank of Greece SA" with the guarantee of the parent Company of the Group.
The foreseen performance for the second half of 2023 depends to a great extent on the continuous uncertainty in the local and international markets resulted from the growing geopolitical tensions and the difficult

macroeconomic environment due to inflationary pressures, increases in interest rates and disruptions in energy market.
Within 2023 consumption of food products within the Eurozone is expected to moderately rise and continue to recover compared to the previous year in line with the expected inflation decline and the uncertainty of the security of energy supply and pricing, having a positive effect on the financial results of the Group. In any case, the effect in the following period as well as the recovery course cannot be estimated since they depend on the course of indicators and figures such as international commodity prices, energy cost, local and regional demand, the effect from the monetary and fiscal policy measures etc., facts that the Group is not able to influence.
The competitive production basis, the storage and supply facilities, the strong operating performance and the adequacy of the financial liquidity are significant competitive advantages which shall allow the continuation of the successful course, the smooth implementation of the Group's strategic plan 2023-2025 and to ensure the business viability of the Group.
The Group has developed and applied an effective "Business Risk Management System" for recognizing, assessing, managing, treating and monitoring business risks. Management applies appropriate and affective policies, procedures and tools in order to take into account and effectively manage corporate risks in the process of taking the best decision mainly for the Group's smooth business operation.
Management continuously monitors and assesses the possible effect of any changes in the macroeconomic and financial environment within the countries the Group operates so as to ensure that all the appropriate actions and measures shall be taken in order to minimize any impact on the Group's activities.
Based on current assessment, Management has concluded that additional impairment provisions of financial and non-financial assets at June 30, 2022 are not necessary.
The main risks that the Group is exposed to and is likely to within the second half of 2023 are as follows:
The macroeconomic conditions have been affected negatively both in Greece and globally by the financial risks derived from significant geopolitical tensions as well as the rapid rise of interest rates and the disruptions in energy market which led prices of raw materials to increase.
Management continuously monitors and assesses the possible effect of any changes in the macroeconomic and financial environment within the countries the Group operates taking into account the international financial developments, so as to ensure that all the appropriate actions and measures shall be taken in order to minimize any impact on the Group's activities.

Growing inflation and high prices of energy have affected the financial and operational performance of the Group. Management closely monitors macroeconomic developments and the financial perspectives in order to minimize uncertainties and risks.
The Group does not operate in Ukraine and Russia. However, the geopolitical uncertainty led to higher inflation and increased instability in energy market affecting the overall financial environment, conditions that may possibly continue to exist. Moreover, there is increased risk from disruptions in the global supply chain.
Regarding cereal markets, during the period imports from the countries involved have been banned the Group timely found alternative supply solutions from the rest wheat-producing countries in Europe.
Management continuously monitors the developments and possible effect on turnover, results and financial position of the Group from the increasing prices of raw materials, disruptions in the global chain supply and high energy cost in order to take the appropriate measures for the smooth viability of the Group and the Company.
The increase in the average global temperature has caused many extreme natural disasters (disastrous floods, frosts, heavy snowfall and large fires due to prolonged drought). Risks arising from climate change effect and the transition to a low-carbon economy is expected to affect the majority of the business units regarding viability issues. Taking into account the extreme natural disasters of recent years, management takes all the appropriate action so as to remove or minimize problems that may arise, beyond insurance coverage for insurable risks.
The Group does not have significant concentration of credit risk in any of its contracting parties, mainly due to the large number of customers and the great dispersion of the Group's customer base.
The Management of the Group has adopted and applies credit control procedures to minimize its doubtful receivables through the evaluation of the credit ability of its customers and the effective management of the receivables before they become overdue. For the monitoring of credit risk, customers are classified according to the maturity of their receivables, the historical background of their collection taking into account future factors relating to customers as well as the broader financial environment.
Additionally, the Group's companies have an insurance contract that covers most of their claims. This contract cannot be sold or transferred. Customers who are considered to be unreliable are reevaluated at every reporting date and when a likelihood of non-recovery of these receivables occurs, a provision for doubtful debts is formed.

The Group keeps its liquidity risk at low levels through the availability of adequate cash or/and approved bank credit limits ensuring the fulfillment of the Group's short-term financial liabilities. The Group's liquidity ratio (Current Assets to Current Liabilities) amounted to 2,03 at June 30, 2023 towards 2,81 at June 30, 2022.
For the monitoring and management of liquidity risk the Group forms cash flow projections on a regular basis.
The Group's expοsure to the risk of changes in the interest rates relates to its short-term and long-term loans. The Group keeps all its loans at variable interest rates and as a result any Euribor-index change affects the Group.
The table below presents the sensitivity of the Earnings Before Tax of the Group and the Company if the interest rates change by one percentage point:
| Interest Rate Volatility | Impact on Company's EBT | Impact on Group's EBT | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01.07.2022 | 1,00% | -548.013 | -688.563 |
| 30.06.2023 | -1,00% | 548.013 | 688.563 |
| 01.07.2021 | 1,00% | -743.503 | -851.225 |
| 30.06.2022 | -1,00% | 743.503 | 851.225 |
The Group operates in Southeast Europe and as a result any change in the operating currencies of those countries towards other currencies exposes the Group to risk of exchange rate. The main currencies involved in the Group's transactions are Euro and Bulgarian Lev.
The Group's Management continuously monitors the foreign exchange risks that may arise and assesses the need for action, yet at the moment there is no such risk since the exchange rate between the two currencies is stable from 1 January 1999 (BGN 1,95583 = EUR 1).
The Management of the Group takes all the necessary measures (insurance, storage) in order to minimize the risk and the possible loss due to inventory loss from natural disasters, thefts, etc. Moreover, due to the inventory΄s high turnover ratio and the simultaneous inventory's long duration (expiry date), the risk of their obsolescence is very limited.
The Group is exposed to risk derived from the variation in prices of the used raw materials for its products. The fluctuation in prices of the raw materials during the recent years as well as the general economic crisis

lead to the conclusion that this fluctuation will continue to exist. Therefore, exposure to that risk is considered high and for that reason the Group's Management takes all the necessary measures in order, firstly, to eliminate the Group's exposure to that risk through achieving specific agreements with its suppliers and the use of derivative financial instruments and secondly, to adjust its pricing and commercial policy timely and accordingly.
Management has installed a reliable "System Of Internal Control" in order to detect malfunctions and exceptions within its commercial operations. In this context, operational, strategic, regulatory, financial and legal risks as well as risks relating to information systems are assessed and monitored.
The Group is exposed to operational risks and Management treats them either with safeguards or transferring the risk to third parties (e.g. insurance companies). Property insurance and other risk insurance cover are adequate.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors
Nikolaos Loulis
Sourpi Magnesias, September 27, 2023
The Board of Directors

To the Board of Directors of the Company "LOULIS FOOD INGREDIENTS S.A."
We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed separate and consolidated statement of financial position of «LOULIS FOOD INGREDIENTS S.A.» as of June 30, 2023 and the related condensed separate and consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, as well as the selected explanatory notes that comprise the interim condensed financial information, which is an integral part of the six-month financial report as provided by Law. 3556/2007.
Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and applied to interim Financial Reporting (International Accounting Standard "IAS" 34). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim condensed financial information, based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, mainly of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, as incorporated into the Greek Legislation and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit.

Τhe amendments have not yet been endorsed for adoption in the EU jurisdiction, and therefore, the Group and the Company are unable to apply them as at 30 June 2023.
The Group and the Company are currently investigating the impact of the new standards and amendments on their financial statements.
The Group consistently applies the following accounting principles in the preparation of the attached Financial Statements:
The Group's subsidiaries are legal entities on which the Group has the ability to set the operational and financial policies, by participating directly or indirectly in their share capital with a voting right over 50%.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date that control is transferred to the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date that this control no longer exists. The accounting method of the acquisition is used for the accounting entries of the subsidiaries' acquisition by the Group. The acquisition cost is calculated as the sum of the present value of the acquired assets, the issued shares and the existing or undertaken liabilities plus any costs that are directly related to the acquisition, during the transaction date.
The acquired assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially measured at their present value upon the cost acquisition date and the present value of the acquired subsidiary's equity.
The intragroup transactions, the account balances and the profits realised that arose from transactions between the companies of the Group are deleted. The losses realised are deleted but are considered as an impairment indicator for the transferred asset.
Operating Currency and Reporting Currency
The Financial Statements of the Group's subsidiaries are presented in the local currency of the country where they operate. The consolidated Financial Statements are presented in euro, which is the operating currency and reference currency for the Company and the Group.

Transactions in foreign currency are translated to the operating currency using exchange rates in effect during the date of the transactions. Profit and losses from foreign exchange difference, which arise from the settlement of such transactions during the period and from the conversion of monetary items expressed in foreign currency are registered in the results.
The operating results and the equity of all companies of the Group (excluding those companies operating in hyper inflationary economies) of which operating currency is different than the reference currency of the Group, are translated into the reference currency of the Group as follows:
Goodwill arisen from merge/acquisition of companies initially is recognized at cost which is the excess amount of the merge cost, over the Group's proportion in the fair value of the acquired net assets.
Following the initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment loss. The Group conducts impairment tests annually. Impairment loss recorded for goodwill is not reversible in subsequent periods.
Intangible assets acquired separately are presented at historical cost. Intangible assets acquired as part of business combinations are recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date.
After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangible assets, other than capitalized development costs, are not capitalized and expenses are recognized in the income statement in the period in which they are incurred.
Software programs and the relative licenses that are separately acquired are capitalized on the basis of the costs incurred for the acquisition and installation of that software when they are expected to generate financial benefits for the Group beyond an economic year. Expenditure incurred for the maintenance of software programs is recognized as an expense when incurred.
Land-plots and buildings that mainly consist of industrial sites are presented in the financial statements at fair value, based on the evaluation of external independent expert, minus the subsequent accumulated depreciation amount.
Depreciation of tangible fixed assets is calculated on a straight-line basis in order to allocate the cost or the fair value of the asset onto their estimated useful lives.
The useful economic lives are as follows:
| years | |
|---|---|
| Buildings | 25-40 |
| Facilities and machinery | 20-35 |
| Vehicles | 5–9 |
| Furniture and Other Equipment | 1-10 |

The residual values and useful lives are subject to reassessment at each Balance Sheet date, if necessary.
Expenses for repairs and maintenance for the fixed assets are charged to the income account statement within the period incurred. The cost of significant renovations and other subsequent expenses is included in the value of the fixed asset if the possible future financial benefits that shall arise for the Group are higher than those originally expected regarding the initial performance of that fixed asset. Significant renovations are depreciated during the remaining useful life of the relevant fixed asset.
Profit and loss from fixed assets disposals are determined by comparing the cash collections with the book value and is charged in the P&L account.
Investment Property is held to generate rental income or profit from their resale. Property used for the operating activities of the Group is not considered to be investment property but operating property. This is also the criteria that differentiates investment property from operating property.
Investment Property as non-current assets is presented at fair value which is determined in-house annually, based upon similar transactions that have taken place close to the Balance Sheet date. Any change in fair value which represents the free market value is charged in the other operating income account of the income statement.
Following their initial recording, the investments in property is recorded at fair value.
Inventories are valuated at the lowest price between acquisition cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories is defined using the weighted average method. The cost price of finished products and semifinished inventories includes raw materials, direct labour costs, as well as direct expenses and other general expenses related to the production excluding the borrowing cost. Net realizable value is the estimated sale price, during the normal course of the company's activities, minus the estimated cost necessary for the sale.
Financial assets are classified at initial recognition and subsequently measured at amortized cost, at fair value through other comprehensive income and fair value through profit or loss.
The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the contractual characteristics of the cash flows of the financial asset and the business model of the Group for their management. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financial component, the Group initially measure financial assets at their fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not valued through profit or loss, transaction costs. Receivables from customers that do not have a significant financial component are valued at the transaction price determined in accordance with IFRS 15.
In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortized cost or at fair value through total income, cash flows that are "exclusive capital and interest payments (SPPIs)" of the original capital must be obtained.
The Group's business model for managing financial assets refers to the way in which it manages its financial capabilities to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows arise from the collection of contractual cash flows, the sale of financial assets, or both.
The purchase or sale of financial assets that require the delivery of assets within a timeframe specified by a regulation or a contract on the market is recognized on the trade date meaning on the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset.
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in the following categories:

Financial assets valued at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated at initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, or financial assets that are required to be measured at fair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for sale or repurchase in the near future. Derivatives, including embedded derivatives, are also classified as held for trading, unless defined as effective hedging instruments. Financial assets with cash flows that are not only capital and interest payments are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model
The Company and the Group measure financial assets at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met: (a) the financial asset is retained in a business model in order to hold financial assets for the collection of contractual cash flows; and (b) the contractual clauses of the financial asset generate cash flows on specific dates that consist only of capital and interest payments on the balance of the original capital.
Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized, modified or impaired .
Upon initial recognition, the Company and the Group may choose to irrevocably classify its equity investments as equity instruments at fair value through total income when they meet the definition of equity in accordance with IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation and not held for trading purposes. Classification is determined by financial instrument.
Profits and losses from these financial assets are never recycled to profits or losses. Dividends are recognized in the income statement when the payment entitlement has been established, unless the Company benefits from such income as a recovery of part of the cost of the financial asset, so that the gains are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. Equity instruments measured at fair value through total income are not subject to an impairment test.
A financial asset is derecognized primarily when:
When the Group has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from an asset or have entered into a transfer agreement, they assess whether and to what extent they own the risks and rewards of ownership.
When the Group has not transferred or hold substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset and have not transferred ownership of the asset, they continue to recognize the transferred asset to the extent of its continued involvement. In this case, the Group also recognize any relevant obligation. The transferred asset and the related liability are valued on the basis of the rights and obligations that the Group hold.
Further disclosures about impairment of financial assets are also provided in the following notes:
Receivables from customers are recognized when there is an unconditional right to receive the consideration for the client's contractual obligations to the entity. A contract asset is recognized when the Group has satisfied its obligations to the customer before the customer pays or before the payment is due, for example when the goods or services are transferred to the customer prior to the Group's right to issue an invoice. Receivables from customers on credit are initially recognized at their fair value, which corresponds to the nominal value, net of impairment losses
Regarding non-doubtful trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach of IFRS 9 and calculates the expected credit losses over the life of the receivables. For this purpose, the Group uses a maturity forecast table based on the historical data for credit losses, adjusted for future factors in relation to borrowers and

the economic environment. The bad debts are evaluated one by one for the calculation of the relevant provision. The amount of the provision is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income.
For the purpose of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand and deposits in the bank net of bank overdrafts. In the balance sheet, bank overdrafts are included in the borrowings and in particular within the short-term liabilities.
Expenses incurred for the issuance of shares are presented after the deduction of the relevant income tax decreasing the product of the issuance. Expenses related to the issuance of shares for the acquisition of companies are included in the cost of acquisition of the acquired entities.
Loans are recognized at the initial granted amount net of any financial cost. Any difference arisen between the received amount (net of relevant expenses) and the repayment value is recognized in the results during the borrowing term according to the actual interest rate method.
Leases are recognized in the Statement of Financial Position as a right to use an asset and a lease obligation on the date that the leased asset becomes available for use except for:
The lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of leases which were not paid at the commencement of lease. They are discounted with the implied lease rate or, if this particular rate cannot be determined from the agreement, via the interbank rate (IBR). The latter is defined as the cost which the lessor would have to pay in order to borrow the necessary capital and then purchase an asset of similar value with the leased asset in a similar financial environment and with similar terms and conditions.
The lease liabilities include the net present value of the following:
The utilization rights relating to assets are initially being measured at cost and then are reduced by the amount of the cumulative amortization and impairment. Finally, they are adjusted after certain remeasurements of the respective lease liability take place.
The initial measurement of the utilization rights for assets consists of the following:
Each lease payment is allocated between the lease liability and the interest expense, which is charged against results throughout the entire leasing period, so that a fixed interest rate is achieved with regard to the balance of the financial liability in each period. The utilization right relating to an asset is amortized at the shortest period between the economic life of the asset and the term of its leasing, based on the straight line method.

Lease liabilities are remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate or when there is a change in the assessment of the term of any lease.
Short-term benefits to personnel (excluding termination benefits) in money and in kind are recognized as an expense when deemed payable. Portions of the benefit yet unpaid are classified as a liability, whereas if the amount already paid exceeds the benefit then the company recognizes the excess amount as an asset (prepaid expenses) only to the extent to which the prepayment will result in a reduction in future payments or to a fund return.
Post-employment benefits include lump sum indemnities, pensions or other benefits which the company offers after the termination of employment to the employees as acknowledgement of their services. Thus, they include both defined contribution schemes as well as defined benefits schemes. The accrued cost of the defined contributions scheme is registered as an expense in the relative period. Post-employment benefits, adopted by the Group, are partly funded through payments to insurance companies or state social insurance institutions.
Defined benefits plans are relating to contributions to Insurance Carriers (e.g. Social Security), so the Group does not have any legal obligation in the event that the State Fund is unable to pay a pension to the insured. The employer's obligation is limited to the payment of employer contributions to the insurance companies or state social insurance institutions. The payable contribution from the Group to a defined contribution scheme, is recognized as liability, after deduction of the paid contribution whereas accrued contributions are recognized as an expense in the financial results.
According to L.2112/2020 and 4093/2012 the Group is obliged to compensate it's employees in case of retirement or dismissal. The amount of the compensation paid depends on the years of service, the level of wages and the removal from service (dismissal or retirement). The entitlement to participate in these programs is based on the last 16 years of service of the employee until retirement following the scale of Law 4093/2012. The liability that is reported in the Statement of Financial Position is the present value of the liability for the defined benefit with the deduction of the fair value plan assets (reserve of payments to the insurance company) and the resulting change from any actuarial gain or losses and the past service cost. The commitment of the defined benefit is calculated annually by an independent actuary with the use of the Projected Unit Credit Method. Based on of the Projected Unit Credit Method the cost of retirement benefit is calculated as the actuarial present value at the valuation date that the employee shall receive based on the projected benefit and years of past service to the company until that date. The benefit is calculated on the basis of projected salary at the age of retirement. A defined benefit plan defines particular obligations for benefits based on various assumptions such as age, years of past service and wage. The provisions for the period are included in personnel cost (consolidated and company's financial statements) and consist of current and past service cost, the relative financial cost, actuarial gains or losses and any possible additional charges. Regarding unrecognized actuarial gains or losses the revised IAS 19R is followed, which includes a number of changes in accounting for defined benefit plans, including:

The Group recognizes state grants that cumulatively meet the following criteria: (a) there is presumed certainty that the company has complied or will comply with the grant terms and (b) it is probable that the amount of the grant will be recovered. They are recorded at fair value and are recognized in a systematic way in the revenue, based on the principle of the correlation of the grants with the corresponding costs they are subsidizing. Grants relating to assets are included in long-term liabilities as deferred income (deferred income) and are recognized as revenue over the useful life of the fixed asset.
Under IFRS 15, revenue is recognized in the amount that the group expects to be entitled to in exchange for the transfer of the goods or services to a customer. The standard also defines the accounting for the additional costs of taking out a contract and the direct costs required to complete the contract.
Revenue is defined as the amount that an entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for the goods or services it has transferred to a client, except for amounts collected on behalf of third parties (value added tax, other sales tax). Variable amounts are included in the consideration and are calculated using either the "expected value" method or the "most likely amount" method
An economic entity recognizes revenue when (or as it) meets the obligation to execute a contract by transferring the goods or services promised to the customer. The customer acquires control of the good or service if the customer is able to direct the use and derive virtually all the economic benefits from that good or service. Control is passed over a period or at a specific time.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when the control of the good is transferred to the customer, usually upon delivery, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the acceptance of the good by the customer.
The customer receivable is recognized when there is an unconditional right for the entity to receive the consideration for the contractual obligations performed to the customer. A contract asset is recognized when the Company and the Group have satisfied their obligations to the customer before the customer pays or before the payment is due, for example when the goods or services are transferred to the customer prior to the Company's right and Group to issue an invoice
The contractual obligation is recognized when the Company and the Group receive a consideration from the client (prepayment) or when it retains the right to a price that is unconditional (deferred income) before performing the obligations of the contract and the transfer of the goods or services. The contractual obligation is de-recognized when the contractual obligations are executed and the income is recorded in the income statement.
Classification of revenue is as follows:
The income tax of the Group's subsidiaries and associates is calculated in accordance with the relevant legislation applied at the Balance Sheet date within the countries they operate and the taxable income arises. The Management periodically examines the tax calculations and, in cases where the relevant tax legislation is subject to different interpretations, forms a relevant provision for the additional amount expected to be paid to the local tax authorities.
Deferred income tax is determined using the liability method that results from the temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax base of assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax is not calculated


if it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, when the transaction took place, did not affect either the accounting or tax profit or loss.
Deferred tax is determined using the tax rates that are expected to apply during the period in which the receivable or liability will be settled, taking into account the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been applied at the balance sheet date Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that a future taxable profit is to arise for the use of the temporary difference that creates the deferred tax asset.
Deferred income tax is recognized for the temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates, unless the reversal of temporary differences is controlled by the Group and it is probable that temporary differences will not reverse in the near future.
Provisions are booked when the Group has a present, legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably measured.
Contingent liabilities are not recorded in the financial statements but are disclosed.
Dividend distribution to shareholders of the parent from the period's profit, are recognized as a liability in the consolidated Financial Statements on the date when the distribution is approved by the General Shareholders' Meeting
Related party disclosures are covered by IAS 24 which refers to transactions of an entity that prepares Financial Statements with its related parties. Its primary element is the economic substance and not the legal type of the transactions.
The preparation of the financial statements requires estimates and assumptions made by Management that affect the disclosures in the Financial Statements. Management continuously assesses these estimates and assumptions. Estimates and judgments are continuously evaluated and are based on empirical data and other factors, including expectations for future events that are expected under reasonable conditions. Estimates and assumptions are the basis for making decisions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. The resulting accounting estimates, by definition, will rarely match exactly with the corresponding actual results. Estimates and assumptions that entail a material risk of causing material changes in the amounts of receivables and payables in the following year are set out below.
The Group assesses whether there is impairment of goodwill at least on an annual basis. Therefore, it is necessary to estimate the value in use of each cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated. Estimated value in use requires the Group to estimate the future cash flows of the cash-generating units and to select the appropriate discount rate, based on which the present value of the future cash flows will be determined.
Tangible assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The actual useful life of fixed assets is valued on an annual basis and may vary due to various factors.
Some of the assets and liabilities that are included in the Financial Statements of the Group require their measurement at fair value, and/or the publication of this fair value. The Group measures the Tangible Fixed Assets and Real Estate to be invested at fair value. The fair value is determined by approved appraiser. These estimates are also being re-evaluated shortly due to the pandemic crisis.

The main assumptions of the Group regarding right of use assets concern the identification of lease agreements within certain transactions, the terms of lease-contract renewal and the determination of the discount rate.
The Group tests the value of investments in subsidiaries for impairment when facts or conditions make the possibility for impairment more likely. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. For calculating the value-in-use, the estimated cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate.
For determining the estimated cash flows, Management's estimations regarding the level of future profitability and assessment of current market conditions are used. The main assumptions used relate to the following factors: discount rate, sales figures of the next five years, gross margin and growth rate after 5 yrars. The above calculations require the use of estimates.
The management makes the necessary estimates for the calculation of the net realizable value including the maturity of inventories, their movement through use as well as future selling plans.
The management makes estimates for the calculation of any provision for impairment of inventories at each reporting date.
The Group applies the simplified approach of IFRS 9 for the calculation of expected credit losses, according to which the provision for impairment is always measured at the amount of the expected credit losses over the life of the receivables from customers. At each balance sheet date, the historical percentages used and the estimates of the future financial situation are updated. The correlation between the historical data, the future financial situation and the expected credit losses includes significant estimates. The amount of expected credit losses depends to a large extent on the changes in the conditions and forecasts of the future financial situation.
The valuation of derivative financial instruments is based on market positions at the balance sheet date. The value of the derivatives changes on a daily basis and the actuarial amounts may differ significantly from their value at the balance sheet date.
Liabilities for employees' compensation are calculated using actuarial methods that require Management to assess specific criteria such as future employee salary increases, the discount rate for these liabilities, employee retirement rates, etc. Management tries at each reporting date when this provision is revised, to assess the criteria as effectively as possible.
Management's significant estimates are required to determine the amount of deferred tax liability that may be recognized based on the probable period and amount of future taxable profits combined with the entity's tax planning.
Group's companies are subject to different income tax laws. In determining the Group's income tax estimation, a significant subjective judgment is required. During the normal course of business, many transactions and calculations are made for which the exact tax calculation is uncertain. In the case that the final taxes arising after the tax audits are different from the amounts initially recorded, such differences will affect income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period that the determination of tax differences has occurred.

The existence of contingent liabilities requires the Management to continuously make assumptions and judgments regarding the probability that future events will occur or not, and the effect that these events may have on the Group's operation.
The use of the weighted average number of shares represents the likelihood of changing the amount of the share capital during the year due to the larger or smaller number of shares that remain in circulation at each time. Judgment is required to determine the number of shares and the time of their issuance. The calculation of the weighted average number of shares affects the calculation of basic and adjusted earnings per share.

The Group's Financial Instruments consist of Receivables from Customers and Short-term Liabilities with annual maturity and therefore their book value can be considered as reasonable. Regarding the Long-Term Loans, the Group's weighted average cost of capital is very close to the borrowing rate and thus the book value of the item is very close to the fair value. The fair value of the rest Financial Assets and Liabilities is close to their book value.
Regarding the receivables, the Group and the Company do not have significant credit risk concentration. A Credit Control system is in place to manage this risk more efficiently and to assess and classify customers according to the level of risk and, where appropriate provisions have been made for impaired receivables. The maximum exposure to credit risk on the Balance Sheet date is the fair value of each class of financial instrument, as shown in the table below:

The Group and the Company use the following allocation to determine and disclose the fair value of receivables and liabilities per valuation method:
Level 1: based on the negotiable (unadjusted) prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities.
Level 2: based on the valuation methods, in which all data with a significant effect on fair value are either directly or indirectly observable and includes valuation methods with negotiable prices in less active markets for similar or less similar assets or liabilities.
Level 3: based on valuation methods using data that have a significant effect on fair value and are not based on apparent market data.
The table below presents the allocation of the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the Group and the Company.

During the year there were no transfers between the allocation levels.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair values:
The fair value of the Level 2 Land, Buildings and Investment Properties is valued for the Group and the Company by independent external expert using a combination of a) Comparative Method, b) Residual Approach and c) Depreciated Replacement Cost.
The Group and the Company use various methods and assumptions based on market conditions prevailing at each reporting date .
The Company is exposed to financial risks such as exchange risk, interest rates risk, credit risk and liquidity risk arising from its activities and operation. The Company's policy aims to minimize the impact of those risks when they may arise. The Company uses financial instruments such as long-term and short-term loans, foreign currency transactions, trade receivables accounts, accounts payable, liabilities arising from financial leasing agreements, dividends payable and bank deposits.
Risk management is performed by the Financial Department. However, the BoD of the Company is fully responsible for setting the strategy, performing the overall planning and determining the risk management policies.
The Group does not have a significant concentration of credit risk in any of its contracting parties, mainly due to the large number of customers and the great dispersion of the Group's customer base.
The Management of the Group has adopted and applies credit control procedures to minimize its doubtful receivables through the evaluation of the credit ability of its customers and the effective management of the receivables before they become overdue. For the monitoring of credit risk, customers are classified according to their credit profile, the maturity of their receivables, the historical background of their collection as well as future factors of customers and the wider economic environment in general.
Additionally, the Group's companies have an insurance contract that covers most of their claims. This contract cannot be sold or transferred. Customers considered to be unreliable are reevaluated at every reporting date and when a likelihood of non-recovery of these receivables occurs, a provision for doubtful debts is formed.
The Group keeps its liquidity risk at low levels through the availability of adequate cash or/and approved bank credit limits ensuring the fulfillment of the Group's short-term financial liabilities. The Group's liquidity ratio (current assets to current liabilities) amounted to 2,03 at June 30, 2023 towards 2,81 at June 30, 2022. For the monitoring and management of liquidity risk the Group forms cash flow projections on a regular basis.
The Group's expοsure to the risk of changes in the interest rates relates to its short-term and long-term loans. The Group keeps all its loans at variable interest rates and as a result any Euribor-index change affects the Group.
The table below presents the sensitivity of the Earnings Before Tax of the Group and the Company if the interest rates change by a percentage point:

| Interest Rate Volatility | Impact on Company's EBT | Impact on Group's EBT | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01.07.2022 | 1,00% | -548.013 | -688.563 |
| 30.06.2023 | -1,00% | 548.013 | 688.563 |
| 01.07.2021 30.06.2022 |
1,00% -1,00% |
-743.503 743.503 |
-851.225 851.225 |
The Group operates in Southeast Europe and as a result any change in the operating currencies of those countries towards other currencies exposes the Group to risk of exchange rate. The main currencies involved in the Group's transactions are Euro and Bulgarian Lev.
The Group's Management continuously monitors the foreign exchange risks that may arise and assesses the need for action, yet at the moment there is no such risk since the exchange rate between the two currencies is stable from 1 January 1999 (BGN 1.95583 = EUR 1).
The Management of the Group takes all the necessary measures (insurance, storage) in order to minimize the risk and the possible loss due to inventory loss from natural disasters, thefts, etc. Moreover, due to the inventory΄s high turnover ratio and the simultaneous inventory's long duration (expiry date), the risk of their obsolescence is very limited.
The Group is exposed to risk derived from the variation in prices of the used raw materials for its products. The fluctuation in prices of the raw materials during the recent years as well as the general economic crisis lead to the conclusion that this fluctuation will continue to exist. Therefore, exposure to that risk is considered high and for that reason the Group's Management takes all the necessary measures in order, firstly, to eliminate the Group's exposure to that risk through achieving specific agreements with its suppliers and the use of derivative financial instruments and secondly, to adjust its pricing and commercial policy timely and accordingly.
Management has installed a reliable "System Of Internal Control" in order to detect malfunctions and exceptions within its commercial operations. In this context, operational, strategic, regulatory, financial and legal risks as well as risks relating to information systems are assessed and monitored.
The Group is exposed to operational risks and Management treats them either with safeguards or transferring the risk to third parties (e.g. insurance companies). Property insurance and other risk insurance cover are adequate.

The Company's shares are common and listed on the Athens Stock Exchange's market bearing the symbol LOULI .

The Company, at the balance-sheet preparation date, did not possess any own shares.
Investments in fixed assets for the first half of 2023 amounted to € 1.692 thousand for the Group and € 1.415 thousand for the Company.

The Group's contingent liabilities relate to the Banks, other guarantees and other issues arising from the Group's usual operations and they are not expected to have significant additional burden to the Group. In addition, the Company has provided guarantees for the loans of its subsidiaries.
For the fiscal years 2011 up to 2015 the Greek Public Limited companies (SA) whose Financial Statements were mandatorily audited by a Certified Auditor, were subject to tax audit by the same Auditor or audit firm who audited their annual Financial Statements and received "Tax Compliance Certification" according to par.5, art.82 of L.2238/1994 and art.65A of L.4174/2013. For the fiscal years 2016 and onwards the tax audit and the provision of the "Tax Compliance Certification" is optional. The Group has chosen to continue being tax audited by the Auditors, which is now optional for the Group's most significant subsidiaries. It is noted that in application of relevant tax provisions on December 31, 2022, the years up to 2015 are considered written off.
The parent Company «LOULIS FOOD INGREDIENTS SA» and its subsidiary "KENFOOD SA" have been subjected to the tax auditing from Certified Auditors and have received "Tax Compliance Certification" for the years until 31.12.2021.
For the fiscal year 2022, the parent Company «LOULIS FOOD INGREDIENTS SA» and its subsidiary "KENFOOD SA" have been subjected to tax auditing from an auditor in accordance with Law 4174/2013 article 65A as currently in effect. That audit for the year 2022 is in progress and the related tax certificate is expected to be provided after the publication of the Interim Financial Statements of the first half of 2023. If upon completion of the tax audit additional tax liabilities occur, we consider that they will not have substantial impact on the Financial Statements.
Taking into account the above, the table of note 5.2 "Group structure" shows the years for which the tax obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries have not characterized as final.
The most significant changes in the interim condensed financial statements for the period ended June 30th 2023 are:
The significant change in "Financial Income" and "Financial Expenses" as included in the "Interim Condensed Statement of Comprehensive Income" is, firstly, due to the early termination and total realization of the Interest Rate Swap Contracts (IRS), as signed on April and December 2021, of a total nominal value € 50 million from which an amount of € 7 million income came up and secondly due to the full expense recognition of an amount of € 1,19 million of the unamortised balance of the prepayment of the liability which arose from signing the aforementioned Interest Rate Swap Contracts (IRS).
The date of the approval of the Interim Condensed Financial Statements by the Board of Directors is September 27th, 2023.
The Financial Statements, as well as the accompanying notes and disclosures, may contain particular assumptions and calculations concerning future events in relation to the operations, development and the financial performance of the Company and the Group.
On September 8th 2023 the Bulgarian Investment Agency completed the audit of the Group's investment «LOULIS MEL-BULGARIA EAD» in the industrial zone of Bozhurishte in Sofia, Bulgaria, and provided the company with the relevant certification of fulfilment of its investment obligations. The investment concerned the purchase of land from the company "National Company Industrial Zones", which is under the supervision

of the Ministry of Finance of Bulgaria, with a view to make the relevant investment. On April 12th 2021 the Group's subsidiary began the construction of a cereal silo with a capacity of 7.000 tonnes in the aforementioned plot, with the cost of the investment having been budgeted at € 2,8 million. The Group's subsidiary completed the above investment on time, in accordance with the terms of the contract.
No other significant events have occurred after June 30, 2023 that may have a material impact on the Group's and Company's Financial Statements .
