Notes to the Financial Statements

1. General Information

The parent company of the MOTOR OIL Group (the Group) is the entity under the trade name "Motor Oil (Hellas) Corinth Refineries S.A." (the Company), which is registered in Greece as a public company (Societe Anonyme) according to the provisions of Company Law 2190/1920, with headquarters in Maroussi of Attica, 12Α Irodou Attikou street, 151 24. The Group operates in the oil sector with its main activities being oil refining and oil products trading.

Major shareholders of the Company are "Petroventure Holdings Limited" holding 40% and "Doson Investments Company" holding 5.6%.

These financial statements are presented in Euro because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates. Amounts in these financial statements are expressed in € 000's unless otherwise indicated. Any difference up to €1,000 is due to rounding.

As at 31 March 2020 the number of employees, for the Group and the Company, was 2,321 and 1,286 respectively (31/3/2019: Group: 2,262 persons, Company: 1,284 persons).

2. Basis of Financial Statements Preparation & Adoption of New and Revised International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs)

2.1 Basis of preparation

The interim condensed financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2020 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, 'Interim financial reporting' and as such do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements. In this context, these interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these interim condensed financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

New standards, amendments of existing standards and interpretations have been issued, which are obligatory for accounting periods beginning during the present fiscal year or at a future time and have an impact in the Group's financial data. The Group's appraisal regarding the effects from adopting new standards, amendment to existing standards and interpretations are disclosed in note 2.2

2.2 New standards, interpretations and amendments

New standards, amendments to existing standards and interpretations have been issued, which are effective for accounting periods starting on or after January 1st, 2020. Those which are expected to have an impact on the Group are listed in the following paragraphs.

2.2.1 Standards, amendments and Interpretations mandatory for Fiscal Year 2020

IAS 1 and IAS 8: "Definition of Material"

The amendments aim to align the definition of 'material' across the standards and to clarify certain aspects of the definition.

The new definition states that "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". Additionally, the entity will need to assess whether the information, either individually or in combination with other information, is material in the context of the financial statements.

The amendments are not expected to have significant impact on the financial position and / or the financial performance of the Group and the Company.

IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7: "Interest Rate Benchmark Reform"

The amendments published deal with issues affecting financial reporting in the period before the replacement of an existing interest rate benchmark with an alternative interest rate and address the implications for specific hedge accounting requirements in IFRS 9 (Financial Instruments) and IAS 39 (Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement), which require forward-looking analysis.

There are also amendments to IFRS 7 (Financial Instruments: Disclosures) regarding additional disclosures around uncertainty arising from the interest rate benchmark reform.

The amendments are not expected to have significant impact on the financial position and / or the financial performance of the Group and the Company.

IFRS 3: "Definition of a Business"

The amendments provide entities with application guidance to distinguish between a business and a group of assets in the process of determining the nature of the activities and assets acquired.

The amendments to IFRS 3 are effective as of January 1st, 2020 and must be applied to transactions that are either business combinations or asset acquisitions for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2020, Consequently, entities do not have to revisit such transactions that occurred in prior periods.

The amendments are not expected to have significant impact on the financial position and / or the financial performance of the Group and the Company.

2.2.2 Standards, amendments and Interpretations effective for periods beginning on or after January 1st, 2021

IAS 1: "Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current"

The amendments aim to provide guidance for the consistent application of IAS 1 requirements regarding the classification of debt and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date, as current or non-current in the statement of financial position.

The amendments are effective as of January 1st, 2022 and are not yet endorsed by the European Union.

2.3 Reclassification of Funds

Certain items of the "Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income" for the comparative first quarter of 2019 have been reclassified to become comparable to those of the current period. These reclassifications are considered immaterial and relate to the categories "Revenue" (Group €7.1 million, Company €8.7 million), "Cost of Sales" (Group €4 million, Company €2.9 million) and "Other Operating Income/(Expenses)" (Group €3.1 million, Company €5.8 million).

The said reclassifications had no effect on the Net Results and Equity of the Group and/or the Company.

3. Operating Segments

The Group is mainly operating in Greece, given that most Group Companies included in the consolidation are based in Greece, whilst those operating abroad are few with limited operations for the time being.

All operational segments fall under one of three distinct activity categories: Refinery's Activities, Sales to/from Gas Stations and Services.

Segment information is presented in the following table:

21. Contingent Liabilities/Commitments

There are legal claims by third parties against the Group amounting to approximately € 17.5 million (Company: approximately € 14.8 million). There are also legal claims of the Group against third parties amounting to approximately € 20.0 million (Company: approximately € 0.1 million). No provision has been made as all above cases concern legal claims where the final outcome cannot be currently estimated.

The Company and, consequently, the Group in order to complete its investments and its construction commitments, has entered into relevant contracts with construction companies, the non-executed part of which, as at 31/03/2020, amounts to approximately € 9.6 million.

The Group companies have entered into contracts to purchase and sell crude oil and fuels, at current prices in line with the international market effective prices at the time the transaction takes place.

The total amount of letters of guarantee given as security for Group companies' liabilities as at 31/3/2020, amounted to € 386,564 thousand. The respective amount as at 31/12/2019 was € 367,103 thousand.

The total amount of letters of guarantee given as security for the Company's liabilities as at 31/3/2020, amounted to € 258,879 thousand. The respective amount as at 31/12/2019 was € 235,003 thousand.

Companies with Un-audited Fiscal Years

The tax authorities have not performed a tax audit on "CYTOP SA" & "KEPED SA" for the fiscal years 2012 up to and including 2014 and for "CORAL PRODUCTS & TRADING" for fiscal years 2018 & 2019, thus the tax liabilities for those companies have not yet finalized. At a future tax audit it is probable for the tax authorities to impose additional tax which cannot be accurately estimated at this point of time. The Group however estimates that this will not have a material impact on its financial position.

The tax audit for fiscal years 2009 and 2010 for CORAL GAS AEBEY has been completed based on temporary tax audit reports and there are no material additional taxes expected for those years upon the finalization of the tax audits.

There is an on-going tax audit by the tax authorities for NRG TRADING HOUSE S.A. for fiscal year 2017 and for OFC AVIATION FUEL SERVICES S.A for fiscal years from 2014 to 2016. However it is not expected that material liabilities will arise from these tax audits.

For the fiscal years from 2014 to 2018 MOH group companies that were obliged for a tax compliance audit by the statutory auditors, have been audited by the appointed statutory auditors in accordance with L2190/1920, art. 82 of L 2238/1994 and art. 65A of L4174/13 and have issued the relevant Tax Compliance Certificates. In any case and according to Circ.1006/05.01.2016 these companies for which a Tax Compliance Certificate has been issued are not excluded from a further tax audit by the relevant tax authorities. Therefore, the tax authorities may perform a tax audit as well. However, the group's management believes that the outcome of such future audits, should these be performed, will not have a material impact on the financial position of the Group or the Company.

Up to the date of approval of these financial statements, the group companies' tax audit, by the statutory auditors, for the fiscal year 2019 is in progress. However it is not expected that material liabilities will arise from this tax audit.

23. Management of Financial Risks

The Group's management has assessed the impacts on the management of financial risks that may arise due to the challenges of the general business environment in Greece. In general, as it is further discussed in the management of each financial risk below, the management of the Group does not consider that any negative developments in the Greek economy may materially affect the normal course of business of the Group and the Company.

a. Capital risk management

The Group manages its capital to ensure that Group companies will be able to continue as a going concern while maximizing the return to stakeholders through the optimization of the debt and equity balance. The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, which includes borrowings, cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings. The Group's management monitors the capital structure on a frequent basis.

As a part of this monitoring, the management reviews the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. The Group's intention is to balance its overall capital structure through the payment of dividends, as well as the issue of new debt or the redemption of existing debt. The Group through its 100% subsidiary "Motor Oil Finance plc" that is based in London, has already issued, since 2014, bond loans through the offering of Senior Notes bearing a fixed rate coupon and also maintains access at the international money markets broadening materially its financing alternatives. Great Britain's exit from the EU (Brexit) is not expected to have any impact in this subsidiary or in the Group.

Gearing ratio

The Group's management reviews the capital structure on a frequent basis. As part of this review, the cost of capital is calculated and the risks associated with each class of capital are assessed.

The gearing ratio at the year-end was as follows:

GROUP COMPANY
(In 000's Euros) 31/03/2020 31/12/2019 31/03/2020 31/12/2019
Bank loans 1,430,221 897,875 1,063,476 586,619
Lease liabilities 154,926 153,753 17,296 18,222
Cash and cash equivalents (677,498) (697,275) (574,991) (627,858)
Net debt 907,649 354,353 505,781 (23,017)
Equity 1,092,141 1,188,927 937,671 1,014,458
Net debt to equity ratio 0.83 0.30 0.54 (0.02)

b. Financial risk management

The Group's Treasury department provides services to the business, co-ordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group. These risks include market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes. The Treasury department reports on a frequent basis to the Group's management that monitors risks and policies implemented to mitigate risk exposures

c. Market risk

Due to the nature of its activities, the Group is exposed primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (d) below), interest rates (see (e) below) and to the volatility of oil prices mainly due to the obligation to maintain certain level of inventories. The Company, in order to avoid significant fluctuations in the inventories valuation is trying, as a policy, to keep the inventories at the lowest

possible levels. Furthermore, any change in the pertaining refinery margin, denominated in USD, affects the Company's gross margin. There has been no change to the Group's exposure to market risks or the manner in which it manages and measures these risks. Considering the conditions in the oil refining and trading sector, as well as the negative economic environment in general, we consider the course of the Group and the Company as satisfactory. The Group also through its subsidiaries in the Middle East, Great Britain, Cyprus and the Balkans, aims to exploit its endeavors at international level and to further strengthen its already solid exporting orientation. Moreover, the instability in the domestic market, in connection with the capital controls, is not expected to create problems to the normal course of business of the Company, which due to its strong exporting orientation generates adequate cash flows to cover the necessary imports of crude oil for the refinery activities. Furthermore, crude oil prices are determined in the international markets and are not affected so by any domestic market turbulences.

With regard to the COVID-19 the Company's management considers that the refining sector, by definition internationalized, belongs to those activities which are impacted in case of a slowdown of the world economy as a result of the coronavirus outbreak. It is noted that the Company consistently generates sales which exceed significantly the annual production capacity of its Refinery and at the same time delivers refining margins at the top end of the sector. Nevertheless, a decrease in the volume of sales combined with a tightening of the sector margins and mainly the decrease in the crude oil and products prices, had a negative impact on the Company's financial results of Q1 2020. At the present time the future extent of this impact cannot be quantified as it undoubtedly will be correlated with the time duration required for normal conditions to be restored worldwide. The Company considers that the gradual restoration at country and worldwide level of the normal conditions in the future quarters will gradually smooth to a great extent its present negative financial results, while it has taken all necessary measures with regard to its workforce health protection and, to the extent this is feasible, the uninterrupted continuation of its production and commercial activities.

d. Foreign currency risk

Due to the use of the international Platt's prices in USD for oil purchases/sales, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations may arise for the Company's profit margins. The Company minimises foreign currency risks through physical hedging, mostly by monitoring assets and liabilities in foreign currencies.

For the first quarter of 2020, the Group had Assets in foreign currency of 383.4 million USD and Liabilities of 443.4 million USD.

Given an average USD/Euro fluctuation rate of 5%, the potential Gain/Loss as a result of the Group's exposure to Foreign Currency is not exceeding the amount of € 2.7 million.

e. Interest rate risk

The Group has access to various major domestic and international financial markets and manages to have borrowings with competitive interest rates and terms. Hence, the operating expenses and cash flows from financing activities are not materially affected by interest rate fluctuations.

f. Credit risk

The Group's credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade and other receivables.

The Group's trade receivables are characterized by a high degree of concentration, due to a limited number of customers comprising the clientele of the parent Company. Most of the customers are international well-known oil companies. Consequently, the credit risk is limited to a great extent. The Group companies have signed contracts with their clients, based on the course of the international oil prices. In addition, the Group, as a policy, obtains letters of guarantee from its clients in order to secure its receivables, which as at 31/3/2020 amounted to Euro 20.2 million. As far as receivables of the subsidiary sub groups "Avin Oil S.A.", "CORAL A.E." and "L.P.C. S.A." and the subsidiaries "CORAL GAS A.E.B.E.Y." and "NRG TRADING HOUSE S.A." are concerned, these are spread in a wide range of customers and consequently there is no material concentration and the credit risk is limited. The Group manages its domestic credit policy in a way to limit accordingly the credit days granted in the local market, in order to minimise any probable domestic credit risk.

g. Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is managed through the proper combination of cash and cash equivalents and available bank loan facilities. In order to address such risks, the Group's management monitors the balance of cash and cash equivalents and ensures available bank loans facilities, maintaining also increased cash balances. Moreover, the major part of the Group's borrowings is long term borrowings which facilitates liquidity management.

As at today the Company has available total credit facilities of approximately € 1.1 billion and total available bank Letter of Credit facilities up to approximately \$ 977 million.

Going Concern

The Group's management considers that the Company and the Group have adequate resources that ensure the smooth continuance of the business of the Company and the Group as a "Going Concern" in the foreseeable future.
