2019 marked a year of recovery for the Greek economy after a prolonged and deep 10-year recession, while the emergence of a single party government in July 2019, for the first time since 2009, further boosted expectations for the Greek economy's prospects going forward. Moreover, improved economic climate, renewed market confidence coupled with an overall favorable international environment were reflected in the decline in Greek bond yields, which recorded historically low levels.
The growth rate in 2019 was 1.9%, while the yield on the 10-year bond declined even lower than the 1% level, certifying the improvement of the Greek economy and the willingness of investors to undertake Greek risk.
The above had established a positive economic environment for the Greek economy at the beginning of the year with estimates projecting accelerated growth during 2020. However, this positive economic outlook was abruptly reversed with the emergence and spread of Covid-19 initially in China and then into Europe. In addition, the price war between major oilproducing countries has significantly impaired the outlook for the economy, bringing about a backdrop of reduced visibility. Within a short period of time, the economic environment has become increasingly volatile with declining growth prospects globally.
For Greece, the potential deterioration of the economic climate poses significant challenges considering also the strict constraints imposed by the overall fiscal framework. Accurate estimates of the consequences of weakening economic activity due to the virus pandemic are difficult to be made at this time, as it largely depends on the duration and extent of the outbreak.
Monitoring closely the developments both on a domestic and international level, MYTILINEOS, following significant growth recorded in 2019, is taking all the necessary actions to protect the health of its employees and to continue its operations seamlessly. while, armed with its strong balance sheet, is in a position to adjust its strategy to depending on developments. In this regard, it is noted that the management of the Company has successfully dealt with significant challenges in recent years, including the Greek crisis and has both the experience and the ability to effectively manage all the variables under its control, acting within a rapidly changing environment.
Alumina's and Aluminium global demand was kept positive during 2019 however, at the same time the supply was increased (resuming production at Alunorte, capacity expansion at EGA) resulting in price pressures particularly in the second half of the year.
The decline in Aluminium prices during the second half of 2018 continued also during 2019 bringing the Aluminium price in the LME 3m marginally greater than the level of 1.700\$/t. The average price stood at \$1.810/t, down by approximately 14%.
Quarterly decline followed the premia for Aluminium products. In relation to 2018 billets' premia recorded a marginal decline compared to the plates which met a decline of 10%.
The API Index for Alumina, after its unprecedented rise in 2018, was decreased by 30% during 2019 as the circumstances that led to the explosive rise in prices during previous year ceased to exist (US sanctions which affected the largest producer of alumina and aluminium outside China, as well as the partial cessation of the world's biggest factory in Alumina production «ALUNORTE»).
The performance of the USD against Euro was strengthened, with the EURO/USD parity at 1.12 for 2019 compared to 1.18 of the corresponding period of the previous year
CO2 emissions' price which impacts not only directly but also indirectly the production cost was increased by 55% over the average price of 2018, stabilizing at a level of 25€/t from the second quarter of 2019 onwards.
Raw materials' (except bauxites) and Natural Gas decreased prices compared to 2018 led also to the decrease of production costs.
The successful hedging policy which was implemented since 2018 led to positive results especially in the LME where unlike market prices the Company achieved an increase of about 15% compared to the prices of 2018. This policy at the same time led to the reduction of the negative impact of CO2 emissions having prepurchased at lower prices than those formed on the market.
Since the beginning of 2019, and in order to protect the industry from the emerging problems in alumina and aluminium prices, a new competitiveness program for Metallurgy under the name "HEPHAESTUS" has been launched. The program is expected to last for two years and includes initiatives for cost reduction in raw materials, transport and energy. It also includes initiatives for the increase of production, particularly through the introduction of secondary aluminum into production, which improves the environmental footprint of Metallurgy, in addition to the improvement of economic results.
To this end, EPALME was acquired at the end of May 2019, which specializes in the production of secondary aluminium billers. Moreover, a new slab casting facility was installed and put into operation at the end of 2019 at the AOG plant. The additional capacity provided by the new facility will be covered by the purchase of recycled aluminium. The aim of the "HEPHAESTUS" program, regarding the increase in aluminium production, is to increase the production capacity to 250kt per year (with the participation of secondary metal by about 65kt / year (EPALME & AOG)).
In November 2019, Metallurgy sector joined the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative – ASI.
Outstanding performance was recorded in the safety of employees at the AOG plant, since 2019 has been a year without any accidents with work time loss..
The financial results of 2019, reflect a positive course of the EPC & Infrastructure Sector (EPC Projects), proving its durability. More specifically, EPC Project Sector turnover for 2019 came up to € 665.8 million compared to the € 367.3 million of 2018.

In the early 2019, MYTILINEOS S.A. signed a contract for the construction of the Freight Center in Thriasio Plain, Western Attica, Greece, for an initial contractual amount of €109mn. The contract was signed with the consortium ETVA VIPE (Industrial Areas) and Goldair (THEK S.A), who are the Project's Concession Holders for the 60-year duration of the concession contract. The Thriasio Transit Project relates to the Design and Construction of the first Logistics Park in Greece, including the development of warehouses and supporting buildings covering a total surface of 235,000m2 within a land plot of 588,000m2, owned by GAIAOSE. In addition to the construction of building facilities, a road and a railway network will be constructed within the park aimed at supplying the warehouses. This combination of transport will be the first in the Greek logistics market.
Within 2019, MYTILINEOS S.A. also signed a contract with JAVNO PODJETJE ENERGETIKA LJUBLJANA, Ljubljana's energy company, engaged in electrical and thermal production, transmission and distribution, operating Slovenia's largest District Heating System. The contract involves the Engineering, Procurement and Construction of a new Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant in Ljubljana, Slovenia, substituting to a large extent coal with natural gas, thus reducing coal consumption by 70%. This new dual fuel (natural gas or extra light fuel oil) combined heat and power plant with total electrical power output of 110MW, is expected to make a vital contribution to meeting the electricity and district / process heating needs of Ljubljana's citizens. The contract value amounts to €118 million.
In 2019, METKA EGN signed with Total Eren turnkey Engineering, Construction & Procurement contracts, for two photovoltaic ("PV") projects in Kazakhstan, totaling a capacity of 128 MWp. Specifically, the first Project ("Nomad") is a 28 MWp PV power plant located close to the village of Zhalagash in the Kyzylorda region and the second Project ("M-KAT") is a 100 MWp PV Power Plant located next to the village of Shu in the Zhambyl region. ΜΕΤΚΑ EGN is now one of the preferred suppliers of Total Eren. This achievement reflects the trust, know-how and reliability which ΜΕΤΚΑ EGN has attained in the market. The total contractual value of the projects amounts approximately to 117 million USD.
METKA EGN has also signed a contract with Atacama Solar S.A., a subsidiary of the solar independent power producer Sonnedix, to undertake the EPC and O&M of the Atacama Solar II 170,65MWp PV project located in the municipality of Pica, Tarapaca Region, in Chile. The scope of the project includes the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of the Atacama Solar II plant, as well as a contract for the operation and maintenance (O&M) services for two years.

In 2019, MYTILINEOS S.A. also announced the agreement for the acquisition of the remaining stake (49.9%) that it does not already own in METKA EGN Ltd. Following the completion of the transaction, MYTILINEOS SA will become the sole shareholder (100%) of METKA EGN Ltd. This transaction takes place within the framework of MYTILINEOS' overall energy plan, which will now include a platform for the construction, operation, financing and resale of photovoltaic power generation and storage units in Greece, but mainly in the international market. The total acquisition of METKA EGN ensures obvious synergies: The exceptional know-how developed in recent years by METKA EGN will benefit from increased financial flexibility, an increased ability to secure optimal agreements with suppliers and customers and will especially benefit from its increased size in the context of MYTILINEOS' investment activity in BOT projects.
Through its subsidiary METKA EGN, MYTILINEOS has signed a series of contracts for new Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) with its long-term cooperator Gresham House of United Kingdom. The new contracts concern engineering, procurement and construction of four new units, as well as the expansion of the energy storage systems in four operational units into batteries.

Year 2019 was marked by an increase of 1.3% in electricity demand compared to 2018. The combination of increased demand, lower gas prices (especially in the second half of 2019), higher CO2 prices and lower hydroelectric production resulted in the significantly increased production of NG units (by 13.5% compared to 2018). The average wholesale market price stood at 63.8 € / MWh, increased by 5.7% compared to 2018.
The coverage (by source) of total electricity demand (in TWhs) for 2019 and 2018 is depicted in the following chart:

Both of the above (increased demand & high CO2 price), coupled with the ability to supply NG at highly competitive prices through the purchase of NG and LNG loads, which led to a diversified and flexible Gas Supplies portfolio, as well as the high efficiency, availability and reliability of the Company's units, have resulted in increased production to 5.4 TWh (an increase of 12.1% compared to 2018). The 3 units of MYTILINEOS produced 10.4% of the total demand and 31.6% of the total NG production. The total production of thermal and renewable units of the Company amounted to 5.8 TWh, representing 11.2% of total demand in the interconnected system (including net imports). MYTILINEOS, taking advantage of the size of its NG supply portfolio, due to high own needs, as well as its long experience in the direct supply of both LNG and NG, from a wide network of large international suppliers, continues to create opportunities for supply in competitive terms, while benefiting from the current low market trends. As a result, the cost of gas supply for MYTILINEOS was significantly lower than the average market price in Greece. Due to the above, MYTILINEOS has entered the wholesale market (sales to third parties) both in the Greek market and in the neighboring Balkan markets through exports. The company's broad
involvement in the wholesale market has also resulted in the company expanding its portfolio and gaining competitive advantage and access to even more competitive sources of supply. The company's share of total NG imports in Greece in 2019 was over 35%, with 40% of its portfolio reserved for third party sales.
Regarding the supply activity, Protergia is steadily strengthening its presence by representing over 180,000 electricity meters and over 13,000 NG meters in the end of 2019, compared to 129,000 and 4,500 meters respectively in 2018.
On October 2 at a ceremony held in the energy center of Aghios Nikolaos the foundation stone was laid for the construction of the new 826 MW CCGT with General Electric's H-Class turbine. The trial start date of the power plant is set at the end of the fourth quarter of 2021, contributing to the country's transition to an energy mix with a significantly smaller carbon footprint. The project is executed by the company's EPC & Infrastructure segment with notable synergies, ensuring reduced investment cost. Preparatory work for the station's field was conducted during the last two months of 2019.
Three new Wind Parks have been put into operation during 2019, increasing the Company's production capacity from RES to 211 MW, while one additional Wind Park of total capacity of 11 MW is under construction.
Finally, on July 1, 2019, the Company successfully participated in the competitive process of RES projects announced by RAE for an additional 44.0 MW Wind Park and will commence construction in 2020.

The Group's policy is to monitor its performance on a month to month basis thus tracking on time and effectively the deviations from its goals and undertaking necessary actions. The group evaluates its financial performance using the following generally accepted Key Performance Indicators (KPI's):
-EBITDA (Operating Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation & Amortization): The Group defines the «Group EBITDA» quantity as profits/losses before tax, itemized for financial and investment results; for total depreciation (of tangible and intangible fixed assets) as well as for the influence of specific factors, i.e. shares in the operational results of associates where these are engaged in business in any of the business sectors of the Group, as well as the influence of write-offs made in transactions with the aforementioned mentioned associates.
- ROCE (Return on Capital Employed): This index is derived by dividing profit before interest, taxes, depreciation & amortization, to the total capital employed by the Group, these being the sum of the Net Position; Total Debt; and Long term forecasts.
- ROE (Return on Equity): This index is derived by dividing profit after tax by the Group's Net Position.
- EVA (Economic Value Added): This metric is derived by multiplying the total capital employed with the difference (ROCE – Capital Expenditure) and constitutes the amount by which the financial value if the company increases. To calculate the capital expenditure, the Group uses the WACC formula – « Weighted Cost of Capital».
The Weighted average cost of capital is calculated as, the quotient of Equity Capital to Total Capital Employed (Equity Capital and Debt) multiplied by the return on Equity* plus the quotient of Debt to Total Capital Employed (Equity Capital and Debt) multiplied by the return on Debt adjusted by the company tax rate (due to tax saving on interest paid).
$$WACC = \frac{E}{E+D}r_E + \frac{D}{E+D}r_D(1-Tc)$$
Where
E Equity Capital
D Debt
rE Return on equity
rD Return on debt
Tc Tax rate
*Return on Equity is calculated by utilizing the "Capital Asset Pricing Model" (CAPM) and is equal to risk-free rate of return plus a risk premium multiplied by beta coefficient that reveals the variability of the stock in relation to market fluctuations.
WACC for 2019 equals 7.25% and is based on Group's country exposure.
The above indicators for 2019 compared to 2018 are as follows:
| 2019 | 2018 | |
|---|---|---|
| EBITDA | 313.155 | 283.559 |
| ROCE | 9,4% | 10,2% |
| ROE | 9,1% | 9,4% |
| EVA | 49.687 | 24.662 |
During the reporting period, the Group proceed to the following:
• In the early 2019, MYTILINEOS S.A. signed a contract for the construction of the Freight Center in Thriasio Plain, Western Attica, Greece, for an initial contractual amount of €109mn. The contract was signed with the consortium ETVA VIPE (Industrial Areas) and Goldair (THEK S.A), who are the Project's Concession Holders for the 60-year
duration of the concession contract. The Thriasio Transit Project relates to the Design and Construction of the first Logistics Park in Greece, including the development of warehouses and supporting buildings covering a total surface of 235,000m2 within a land plot of 588,000m2, owned by GAIAOSE. In addition to the construction of building facilities, a road and a railway network will be constructed within the park aimed at supplying the warehouses. This combination of transport will be the first in the Greek logistics market. The first phase of the construction project will begin once the concession contract has become enforce, scheduled within the second quarter of 2019, and has duration of 24 months.
equivalent emissions. Through this new project METKA EGN is working with Eni for the first time, while supporting Eni in its drive to decarbonize its operations by introducing renewable energy in the countries where it operates worldwide. The project duration is eight months after which METKA EGN will also carry out operations and maintenance services for the project for two years.
-XANTHAKIS has undertaken the renovation of existing building facilities of the Isthmos Rail Station, as well as its surrounding areas. In addition, new platforms will be constructed in the Isthmos Station and the Rail Stops of Kazino and Loutraki, in addition to the installation of modern automatic Level Crossing systems. The Contract for the project was signed on the 4th of June and the duration of the project is 18 months from the signing date. The Contract value net of VAT is €6.4m and is financed by the Greek Public Investment Plan.
• On 19.06.2019, MYTILINEOS S.A. announced the record date for the beneficiaries of interest payment for the fourth Interest Payment Period, according to the terms of the dated 27.06.2017 common bond loan issued by "MYTILINEOS HOLDINGS SA", i.e. from 27.12.2018 to 27.06.2019. The gross interest amount for the second Interest Payment Period, which corresponds to 300,000 bonds currently traded on the Athens Exchange, is euro 4,701,666.67 i.e. euro 15.6722222222 per bond and has been calculated at an annual interest rate of 3.10% (before tax). The payment of the accrued interest to the bondholders took place through the "Hellenic Central Securities Depositary S.A." (ATHEXCSD) on Thursday, June 27th, 2019.
• Decisions of Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders of MYTILINEOS S.A.
The Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders of the company took place on June 24 2019, and the following decisions, among others, were taken:
contributing in the avoidance of the emission of around 200,000 metric tons of CO2 per year. The total cost of the investment for Sonnedix is of \$ 180 mio ( € 160 mio).
150MW, with more than 275MWh of new battery energy storage. These systems are supporting increased penetration of intermittent renewables into the energy mix. More specifically, they provide ancillary services necessary to ensure the reliability and stability of the grid, and to also generate revenues by storing energy at times of low demand and releasing it back to the grid when there is increased demand. The value of the new contracts amounts to approximately €105m.
These new BESS projects follow on from the similar projects completed in 2017 and 2018 for the same client, which provided Fast Frequency Response (FFR) and other ancillary services to the National Grid in the UK. Execution of the projects is already advanced, with one of the new sites and the expansions already completed, while the remainder of the portfolio will be completed in Q1 2020. Upon completion, METKA EGN will have installed battery energy storage systems in the United Kingdom with a total capacity of 230MW with energy storage of 315MWh, further strengthening its positioning as one of Europe's market leading solution providers for utility scale battery energy storage systems.
In the Metallurgy and Mining sector, the growth rate of the global aluminium demand is expected to remain positive, while at the same time supply is increasing due to planned start ups / expansions in several aluminium plants outside China, leading to a positive balance of quantities. As a result, stocks are expected to rise internationally to the highest levels of the decade, leading to a corresponding pressure on international aluminum prices.
Τhe emergence and spread of the coronavirus has affected the real economy and movement of goods and has raised market concerns. This led to the decline of all values, including the LME, while strengthening the dollar against other currencies. In the meantime, however, the FED has announced a monetary loosening program that has weakened the dollar.
Raw material and NG prices experience already a downward trend, which is expected to continue, improving the production cost and reducing the negative effect of low selling prices on profit and loss.
Metallurgy sector has already started to take steps towards the digital evolution of the industry (Industry 4.0) and more specifically in the field of "digital smelter", through collaboration with General Electric. This collaboration is expected to deliver reduced electricity consumption to Electrolysis. At the same time, working groups have been formed for the creation of new ideas regarding the implementation of Industry 4.0 to other industrial activities.
For the EPC Sector, 2020 is expected to be a year of transition, development and new opportunities. The Group is oriented towards the development of its activities in demanding countries, with its status and know-how giving it a special place in the global market. If there are investment opportunities, the Group shall utilize its significant financing capabilities to create bigger added value for its clients and shareholders. The EPC Sector's strategy aims to an increased backlog of projects taken within 2020, a timely execution of the existing contracts and the undertaking of new projects and investments in targeted markets. The prospects and planning for the EPC Sector's separate activities are as follows:
margins compared to the conventional EPC, evident also in the recent sale of 47MW PV's in Greece. The BoT establishment effort is achieved through acquiring permits and constructing more BoT projects. Combined to the globally accelerated investments in projects connected with climate change, the RSD Sector aims to stabilize its financial sizes in 2020 and place a solid basis for further growth in the years to come.
Delays in auctioning and/or on contractualization of new EPC projects in Greece and abroad, could have a negative impact on the replenishment of the Company's construction backlog, and its future income.
MYTILINEOS possessing installed power of ~1,4 GW from operational thermal power stations and RES projects, has gained the position of the largest private vertically integrated electricity and NG company. Thereby, the company has reached the critical size needed in order to benefit as much as possible from the expected full deregulation of the local market of electric power and NG.
In 2020, the financial results of the Electric Power & Gas Trading Sector are expected to improve due to:
The Group's activities give rise to multiple financial risks, including the current and interest rate related risks; the volatility in market prices; credit risks; and liquidity risks. The Group's risk management program aims at containing potential negative influence to its financial results, as this may arise from the inability to predict financial markets and the volatility with respect to cost and sales variables.
The essential risk management policies are determined by the Group's Management. The risk management policy is applied by the Corporate Treasury Department. The latter acts as a service centre, operating under specific Management - approved lines.
The Group does not exhibit any considerable concentration of credit risk in any of the contracted parties. Credit risk originates from available cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits at banks and financial institutions; also from exposure to client derived credit risk.
Regarding commercial and other claims, the Group is not theoretically exposed to significant credit risks; as of the multifaceted nature of the Group's activities, there is no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to its commercial requirements, as this is allocated over a high number of clients. However, the atypical conditions that dominate the Greek market and several other markets in Europe are forcing the Group to constantly monitor its business claims and also to adopt policies and practices to ensure that such claims are collected. By way of example, such policies and practices include insuring credits where possible; pre-collection of the value of product sold to a considerable degree; safeguarding claims by collateral loans on customer reserves; and receiving letters of guarantee.
To minimize credit risk on cash reserves and cash equivalents; in financial derivate contracts; as well as other short term financial products, the Group specifies certain limits to its exposure on each individual financial institution and only engages in transactions with creditworthy financial institutions of high credit rating.

Liquidity risk is related with the Group's need for the sufficient financing of its operations and development. The relevant liquidity requirements are the subject of management through the meticulous monitoring of debts of long term financial liabilities and also of payments made on a daily basis.
The Group ensures that there is sufficient available credit facilities to be able to cover its short-term business needs, after the calculation of cash flows arising from the operation as well as cash and cash equivalents which are held. The funds for longterm liquidity needs ensured by a sufficient amount of loanable funds and the ability to sell long-term financial assets.

It must be noted that the above table does not include liabilities to clients from the performance of construction projects, as the maturity of such values cannot be assessed. Moreover, cash-advances from customers, construction contacts liabilities as well as the provisions and accrued expenses are not included.
Goods prices that are mainly determined by international markets and global offer and demand result in the Group's exposure to the relevant prices fluctuation risk.
Goods' prices are connected both to variables that determine revenues (e.g. metal prices at LME) and to the cost (e.g. natural gas prices) of the Group's companies. Due to its activity, the Group is exposed to price fluctuation of aluminium (AL), zinc (Zn), lead (Pb) as well as to price fluctuation of natural gas, as production cost.
As regards price fluctuation of metals, the Group's policy is to minimize risk by using financial derivative instruments.
The Group develops activity at international level and is therefore exposed to exchange rate risk that arises mainly from the US dollar. Such risk primarily stems from commercial transactions in foreign currency as well as from net investments in foreign financial entities. For the management of such risk, the Group's Financial Management Department establishes financial derivative and non-derivative instruments with financial organizations for the account and in the name of the Group's companies.
At the Group level, such financial instruments are considered to constitute compensation means for the exchange rate risk of specific assets, liabilities or future commercial transactions
The Group's assets that are exposed to interest rate fluctuation primarily concern cash and cash equivalents. The Group's policy as regards financial assets is to invest its cash in floated interest rates so as to maintain the necessary liquidity while achieving satisfactory return for its shareholders. In addition, for the totality of its bank borrowing, the Group uses floating interest rate instruments. Depending on the level of liabilities in floating interest rate, the Group proceeds to the assessment of interest rate risk and when necessary examines the necessity to use interest bearing financial derivative instruments. The Group's policy consists in minimizing its exposure to interest bearing cash flow risk as regards long-term funding.

The Materiality process, i.e. the process of identifying, understanding and prioritizing sustainability issues is a key element in the responsible operation of MYTILINEOS.
Seeking to provide the fullest possible information to its shareholders, to investors and to the other groups of its Social Partners, the Company's approach to Materiality is organized on two levels: (a) on the level of financial issues, so as to allow its financial growth, performance and position to be evaluated; and (b) on the level of non-financial issues, that reflect its significant economic, environmental and social impacts and influence the decisions of its Social Partners.
Through the Materiality process for Non-Financial sustainability issues, MYTILINEOS formulates and enriches its Sustainable Development strategy, aimed at operating responsibly in all its activities.
This is a constantly evolving process, in which the assessment of the material issues carried out by each Business Activity Sector forms the basis for the materiality process which takes place centrally, and vice versa. At the same time, the Company's open dialogue with its Social Partner groups provides this process with new inputs on an annual basis.
In 2019, the company upgraded its Materiality assessment process by implementing a new online information platform providing access to quality information on all identified Sustainable Development issues, thus improving the annual internal procedure of updating them.
The topics were examined in terms of the extent to which they affect the Company's ability to meet its business goals and, more importantly, of their impact on Sustainable Development, taking also into account the respective priorities at national level.
They were also correlated with the significance attached to them by the key groups of its Social Partners, based on the findings of a relevant field survey of 1,222 individuals, bodies and organizations.

The measurement of the MYTILINEOS business activity impact on the natural environment is a is a continuous and evolving process.
The Company is committed to stabilize and reduce its environmental footprint, through the implementation of an integrated Environmental Management System in all its Business Sectors and through investments to upgrade its production processes taking advantage of new developments in related technologies, as well as by adopting and applying Best Available Techniques. Certified according to the international standard ISO 14001/2015.
The system is also supported by individual environmental policies, by specific investments to upgrade the production process taking advantage of new technological developments, as well as by the implementation of the Best Available Techniques per activity Sector.
• Adherence to the agreements and commitments that MYTILINEOS has undertaken over and above its statutory obligations.
• Integration of Sustainable Development principles in the Company's decision-making and operation processes.
• Assessment of the impacts of the Company's activities on the environment, identification and assessment of potential risks, adoption of the necessary preventive measures, conduct of regular inspections and drills in order to confirm their implementation and evaluate their efficiency.
• Control and reduction of air emissions, in tandem with correct management and continuous reduction of solid and liquid waste, employing recovery, reuse and recycling techniques where feasible.
• Responsible use of energy, water and other natural resources.
• Readiness and effective response to emergency environmental incidents and correction of all deviations by implementing corrective action plans.
• Study, maintenance and evolution of appropriate prevention and suppression means, especially in cases where installations are modified.
• Correction of all confirmed deviations, by introducing and implementing improvement / restoration plans and preventive action plans.
• Continuous briefing, training and awareness-raising activities for personnel in all Business Sectors, adapted to the duties and needs of each employee and promoting an environmentally responsible culture.
• Acknowledgment of Social Partners' needs and expectations regarding environmental issues, demonstrating increased awareness of them and promoting a climate of cooperation.
• Encouraging associates (contractors, suppliers, clients) to act in connection with environment-related issues and strengthening of their environmental conscience.
• Organization of regular internal and external inspections to assess the performance of the Environmental Management System, the achievement of the targets set and the application of the relevant regulations and principles.:

The ASI Standard sets out 59 criteria under the three main pillars (Governance -Environment - Society) covering major issues such as climate change, biodiversity and human rights, with a view to ensuring compliance of the aluminium value chain with sustainability commitments.
For MYTILINEOS, joining the ASI initiative reflects its solid commitment, fully aligned with the vision of the European Union, to move swiftly towards carbon-neutral production, as well as to achieve the target of 100% RES sourcing for its Metallurgy Sector by 2030.
A key element in MYTILINEOS business activity is compliance with the environmental legislation; this is an issue of paramount importance, not falling short in significance of issues the company manages in the context of its ongoing and responsible development. This stance, constituting a key component of the company's overall environmental policy, is primarily based on the principle of adhering to the stipulations of the law, to the agreements and commitments taken voluntarily through its Business Activity Sectors. Additionally, monitoring compliance with the approved environmental licenses (Environmental Terms Approval Decisions) for the company's operational units, is a process conducted internally, on a regular basis and by specialized personnel in each Business Sector, as well as annually, by a recognised independent organisation that undertakes to audit and certify the environmental management system in place.

The key challenge for the Company is to safeguard diversity and restore the natural landscape in usable land areas associated with bauxite mining activities as well as the development and operation of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) projects.
• Negative impacts from the Company's activities on the flora and fauna in protected areas or in areas of a high biodiversity value, are a permanent potential risk. Failure to monitor and manage these risks may cause delays in
obtaining relevant permits for future projects, as well as loss of the Company's "social license" with a negative impact on its reputation and financial position.
• Any deviation from the Environmental Terms Approval Decisions may cause both the degradation of the natural environment and the suspension of the project with immediate financial consequences for the Company.
• In the Metallurgy Sector, the area of the aluminium production plant does not fall under any category of area protected by law, while the mining activity carried out by DELPH-DISTOMON company, a subsidiary of MYTILINEOS, which concerns primarily underground holdings in the area of Fokida, is performed with respect to the area's biodiversity. Before each new mining activity begins, Environmental Impact and Environmental Rehabilitation Studies are carried out and used as the basis, not only for the mining phase, but also for the rehabilitation phase. The points where mining will take place, to be followed by rehabilitation, are pinpointed with precision, and the planning for each mining exploitation is developed considering the need to minimise alterations to the natural environment and the landscape.
Moreover, a detailed mapping of the form and type of the vegetation is carried out, so that rehabilitation can be based on the unique features of the local ecosystem. The environmental policy of DELPHI-DISTOMON (https://www.alhellas.com/enus/enviromental-policy/enviromental-policy) emphasizes its commitment to the protection of biodiversity and helps further contain any adverse effects, which are already quite limited in scope and temporary in nature.
Moreover, the Company is committed to securing the financial resources required to support adherence to the environmental terms and the performance of rehabilitation works, whose costs are included in advance in the budget of the corresponding project.
The closing-down and remediation plan for every site is specified by the Environmental Terms Approval Decision, while the project manager is obliged to submit to the competent Environment Department of the Regional Unit of Fokida, in the first month of each year, a topographical diagram (to a scale of 1:2000) together with a technical report, which presents and describes the progress of the remediation works.
Environmental restoration is carried out with the systematic tree planting and seeding of approximately 15-20,000 tree/seeds per year, while during 2019 alone, 19,532 forest seedlings were planted.
To this day, DELPHI-DISTOMON has planted approximately 1,158,000 trees covering a total afforested area measuring over 1.8 km2. In addition, 72.5 km of fencing have been installed (to protect the planted trees), together with a 715 km long network of watering-irrigation pipes for those trees.
It should also be mentioned that over the last 6 years, on average, 250,000 tons of sterile limestone are produced during the mining process. This amount has been deposited on existing surface and underground construction sites, thus, not a single square meter of land had to be reserved for depositing this type of waste.
• In the Electric Power sector and with respect to the activities which concern the construction and operation of wind farms located near or inside areas designated as Special Protection Areas, a key prerequisite is the development of the respective environmental impact studies foreseen (specific ecological assessment, annual monitoring of the protected area), to confirm that there are no impacts or, in cases where there are impacts, to describe the measures which may be adopted in order for these impacts to be avoided. In line with the above, the impacts in the locations of the Company's activities are negligible in terms of pollution (gaseous, solid or liquid waste), the movement of animals is not obstructed as there is no fencing, and the disturbance to the local population of birds is negligible, while where this is necessary, technical systems for the protection of birds are installed. In what furthermore concerns the restoration of the environment, the Company applies and systematically promotes the obligation to reforest areas destroyed by fire (areas under reforestation), in accordance with the applicable laws and the instructions of the corresponding Forest Departments. Over the next two years, it is estimated that the Company will reforest over 570,000 m2 of such areas in total.
During 2019, no incidents occurred involving a deterioration of biodiversity as a result of the Company's activities, while the work scheduled for the rehabilitation of used areas was carried out as planned.
Concerning to mining operations, at the end of 2019: (a) the total area of land used in mining operations stood at 120,000 m2, down by 4.8% compared to 2018; (b) the total area of land under restoration stood at 206,000 m2, also down by 6.8% from the previous year; while (c) the area of land restored since the start of our mining activity as a percentage over the total area of land used in mining operations stood at 82.7%, up by 1.4% from 2018.
In what regards the activities concerning the construction and operation of wind farms, in 2019 two bird population monitoring studies were carried out, in compliance with the relevant Environmental Terms Approval Decisions, while reforestation of a total area of 572,000 m2 was successfully completed. The Sustainable Development Report 2019 presents in detail the limited impact of the construction and operation of the Company's wind farms located in protected areas (e.g. NATURA 2000 network).

the Company.
The Company's electric power generation and aluminium production activities are the primary sources of its energy consumption and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, with significant operating costs. The CO2 emissions contribute to the greenhouse effect and reinforce the phenomenon of climate change, with impacts on the natural and man-made environment. The focus on energy efficiency and the mitigation of the CO2 emissions are key environmental challenges for

The main challenges for the Company are the effective prevention of the likelihood of any form of pollution of the natural environment from the Company's production activity and any major industrial accidents.
Failure to prevent and manage the above risks could have a significant impact on the Company's financial and industrial capital, reducing the value generated by increasing the financial costs for dealing with these incidents, through possible administrative sanctions as well as possible inability to carry out the business activities.
Pollution risk management is directly linked to the safe, socially and environmentally responsible operation of all the Company's facilities. Thus, preventive and repressive response measures are implemented in all Business Activity Sectors.
In the case of the Metallurgy sector, an Industrial Safety Management System is in place, covering all the sector's activities, for preventing and responding to major industrial accident hazards by ensuring a series of actions and parameters aimed at preventing the occurrence of such incidents. The main objective is to avoid any incident involving a downgrading of the environment. The preventive measures consist of the following: (a) Strict compliance with the approved Environmental Terms of the Metallurgy activity, (b) compliance with the measures foreseen in the Safety Study (SEVESO III – implementation of JMD 172058/2016), (c) implementation of Best Available Techniques in the management of industrial waste, (d) good knowledge of and training in Emergency Plans (EPs) and (e) systematic monitoring of water and soil quality. An example is the discharge of the seawater used in the cooling systems of the Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant of the Metallurgy sector, where in addition to the strict compliance with the relevant provisions of the law determining the framework for preventing any environmental impact, the Company commissions, an authoritative organization (Hellenic Centre for Marine Research - HCMR) to conduct a research study to monitor the status of living organisms on the Antikyra Gulf seabed. The studies carried out by the Company in accordance with the applicable Environmental Terms are communicated every year, together with their results, in accordance with the applicable provisions, to the competent authorities (the Ministry of Environment and Energy and the Water Management Directorate of the Decentralized Regional Administration). The findings of the recent studies carried out in, 2018 and 2019, reveal that the ecological status is stable, with improvement trends recorded at several observation stations. These studies will be continued for at least five more years.
In more detail, the preventive and suppressive pollution response measures in all Business Sectors are detailed in the Company's Sustainable Development Report 2019, available at the following address: (https://www.mytilineos.gr/en-us/csr-reports/publications)
During 2019, there were no incidents of any kind of pollution of the natural environment by the production activity, nor industrial accidents in the overall Company's business activity, while air emissions remained below the legally imposed levels for another year.

The water needs of the Company's production plants, particularly in the Metallurgy and Electricity sectors, as well as of the human activities of its local communities, require the withdrawal and use of significant water quantities.
Recognizing the importance of this natural capital, MYTILINEOS undertakes projects and initiatives aimed at the efficient water management and saving as well as the controlled management of water discharges.

Since 2016 the Company, aiming to continuously improve and enrich its practices in this area, participates voluntarily in the CDP – Water Security global sustainable development initiative, by disclosing comprehensive water management data, comparing its impact and performance with those of the largest companies globally.
Ensuring the responsible withdrawal, consumption and discharge of water, given that the Company is a major user of seawater and consumer of ground water in specific business activity sectors and areas.

MYTILINEOS owns coastal industrial facilities and operates, through the EPC & Infrastructure Projects sector, in countries where the effects of climate change are more intense. Also, Company's mining activity, related to natural resources, it may
face a range of challenges and problems caused by the changes in the climate. The main challenge for the Company, is to assess the vulnerability of its business activities to climate change, considering existing and expected climate events and the impacts that these are projected to have.
In the context of the above challenge, in the coming years the Company may have to take action for ensuring its adaptation to climate changes which are considered important for operation of its industrial plants, such as: the destruction of infrastructure due to extreme weather conditions, the reduction of available water resources due to lower rainfall, the loss of working days due to extreme temperatures, the integration of climate change into the planning, monitoring and operation of mining activities, the need to reinforce the measures and actions for the protection and restoration of the environment etc., all of which burden the Company financially.
Given that MYTILINEOS's future investments will be largely determined by its climate change strategy, the Company has already incorporated in its strategic priorities the implementation of a study to identify the risks and opportunities of climate change on its activity.
By 2021, the Company plans to adapt to the climate-related financial risk disclosures framework, by following the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) regarding the analysis of the risks and impacts of climate change, as well as its inclusion in the CDP – Climate Change international initiative.

Because of the nature of their operation, the Company's activity sectors are linked to Occupational Health and Safety risks (light accidents, accidents with work time loss, occupational diseases and fatalities) which can have significant or less significant social impacts, not only for the employees themselves and their families but also for third parties such as the employees of independent contractors, the Company's business partners, student trainees and trainee employees as well as all types of visitors to their premises. In addition, these issues cause impacts involving loss of employee satisfaction and morale, increased accident/absenteeism costs and adverse effects on the image and reputation of MYTILINEOS.
• Occupational Health and Safety is a line of responsibility that begins from the Management and Directorates General and stretches along all stages of production of every MYTILINEOS Business Sector. To address these risks, the company strictly implements security systems and safety measurements to assess their impact on the human body and to identify any need for interventions in all workplaces (offices and industrial facilities).
At the same time, continuous progress and improvement highly depends on both preventive actions undertaken and broader experience that the company gains from any incident and near accident, while educating and training the personnel is crucial in order to maintain and further develop an accident prevention mentality.
• The Company applies in all its Business Units an Occupational Health & Safety Management System designed to minimize risk, by allowing the continuous adoption of measures to prevent and minimize accidents and occupational diseases, providing for ongoing employee training and strengthening a safe work culture. The system is certified in accordance with the OHSAS 18001 and the ISO 45001-2018 international standards, covering by the end of 2019, 70,4% and 7,4% of the Company's total production plants respectively. MYTILINEOS is already in the process of transitioning the certification of its Occupational Health and Safety management system to all new production units to the new ISO 45001-2018 standard, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2021
MYTILINEOS' highest priority, daily, is the Health & Safety of its employees across the range of its business activities. The Company continues to strive constantly towards achieving the only acceptable objective of "NO ACCIDENT AND NO OCCUPATIONAL DISEASE", one of the leading challenges in the industry.
The Company's key concern is to sustain the Health & Safety indicators at the lowest possible level in all its facilities (offices, industrial plants and construction sites).
Safety conditions and performance in almost all MYTILINEOS activities are assessed on an annual basis. In 2019, 35 inspections and audits were successfully carried out in all the Company's Business Units either by customers or by independent experts. Additionally, 2019 was a year during which significant progress was made in nearly all Occupational Health and Safety indicators, for both direct and indirect personnel.
More specifically:
These improvements are due both to the availability and use of individual and collective protection measures at work, but also to the continuing training of workers and supervisors on Occupational Safety and Health issues.
MYTILINEOS recognises that the best approach to fulfilling its core Health and Safety objectives and commitments is by constantly striving to create a uniform culture, through information updates, training and awareness raising activities addressed to all employees. The Company's relevant awareness-raising practices in this area are presented in the following address:https://www.mytilineos.gr/en-us/ygeia-asfaleia/ygeia-asfaleia

As an employer, MYTILINEOS contributes to one of the most widely accepted social goals, namely to improve living standards through full-time and safe employment and decent work. The company's labor practices comply as a minimum with all the provisions of the legislation force and respect the fundamental principles laid down in the International Labor Organization's (ILO's) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work.
• Employment, as an internationally recognized objective related to economic and social progress, is considered as extremely important topic for the MYTILINEOS Business Sectors, because of the high localization and large number of employees. Creating opportunities for long-term employment benefits not only the Company's business activities but also has a positive impact on its local communities, contributing to their sustainability.
• In addition, issues concerning decent working conditions (such as, for example working environment, wages, benefits, working time, rest periods, leaves of absence, disciplinary practices and redundancy practices, protection of motherhood and other welfare issues) are of top priority for the Company, as they directly affect employee satisfaction and are key factors for their retention.
• The decrease of employee satisfaction, commitment and effectiveness as well as the departures of talented employees which may result from their lack of adaptability to changes in corporate organization and in processes, and to their difficulty in integrating the Company's values and in understanding its Code of Business Conduct, as these have changed following the completion of the Company's corporate restructuring. This risk may result in the loss of valuable knowledge and expertise gained through their employment, as well as in loss of the financial investment and of the time required for their training. The Company may also incur increased costs for the renewal of specialist personnel.
• To address these risks, the Company has implemented systems and practices concerning: (a) the timely and continuous provision to employees of information about changes in structures and processes due to the corporate restructuring, and (b) the development of programs for formulating the new integrated corporate culture, based on the employees' shared values and their behaviors.

Social engagement reinforces the preventive approach policy adopted by MYTILINEOS, mitigating the unpredictable nonfinancial risks and contributing to the preservation of its "social license" to operate along with its good reputation. This is a constantly evolving effort taking various forms, whose combination results in the Company's commitment to respond to the diverse expectations of its local communities, by actively contributing to the growth of the local employment and economy, to the protection of the environment, to the promotion of health and safety, to the efforts to combat poverty, to strengthening social inclusion and ensuring access to education, and to assist in development of the professional skills of the new generation.
• The Company's failure to promptly identify and manage the often changing social, economic and cultural characteristics of its local communities may negate the existing assumption that the Company is fully integrated in these communities and has common interests with them. This may affect the preservation of the Company's "social license" to operate and thus also restrict its future growth.
• The General Management of each Business Sector of MYTILINEOS is responsible for managing relationships with the local communities where that Business Sector operates. The main objective is to identify any negative impacts from the Company's business activity and to minimize them through its responsible business conduct and activity.

For the last nine years, MYTILINEOS has been consistently holding its established Open Social Dialogue events with its Stakeholder groups. The Company is one of Greece's pioneers in this field, as this approach establishes the conditions for defining new attitudes and practices in its relationships with Stakeholders, taking as its starting point the characteristics of its Business Sector. In line with the above, the Metallurgy Sector of MYTILINEOS held its 5th consecutive thematic consultation with its Stakeholders, entitled: "Education - Skills Development and Creation of quality jobs" The purpose of the consultation was to hold a constructive social dialogue between the Company and representatives from the academic community, education providers, business and local bodies, journalists and employees, on the contribution of the State, the civil society and the business community to the achievement of Global Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education). The 40 participants, through the six working groups they divided and after the cooperation between them, acknowledged the lack of professional skills development which is inextricably linked to current unemployment rates. In this context, more than 30 proposals were submitted, of which about 10 were concerned MYTILINEOS.

maintenance costs for the building where the Facility is housed, (b) provided a total of 19 women and 7 children, ruling out all forms of discrimination, with accommodation in their own individual rooms with private shower and a refrigerator, as well as with personal and baby hygiene products, food and coverage of their subsistence expenses for a period of 9 months.





Impact: MYTILINEOS created 7 new school libraries in an equal number of schools in the Prefectures of Magnesia and Preveza, which already serve 1,352 children and 116 teachers.
Impact: The Company offered to 6 schools in the Prefectures of Viotia and Attica 60 new computers and screens, covering their requests for modern electronic equipment.
Impact: The Company secured 20 scholarships for children of its employees who are students, in the framework of its collaboration with the Athens University of Economics and Business for the implementation of the 10th Youth Entrepreneurship Summer School. It also offered 5 scholarships to the University of Piraeus scholarship program for young people from financially disadvantaged families.
Impact: The professional skills of 303 people were strengthened with the implementation of 2 skills development open seminars. One on "Project Management" (154 participants) and one with the subject "How 2 skill the engineers" (149 participants), both of which received very high satisfaction scores from all participants for their overall organization, educational content and trainers.
Impact: 25 educational robotics sets were offered to an equal number of schools that could not purchase them, covering 35% of all new schools that benefited from the program during 2019. The equipment will remain with the schools permanently, to be used by as many students wishing to do so as possible.
In addition, we provided 2 robots and 18 robot kits to the Centre for Educational Robotics and Sciences of Crete, to be used for holding more than 100 educational workshops covering the entire range of S.T.E.A.M. subjects during the 3rd Educational Robotics and S.T.E.A.M. Festival of Crete,

Impact: The interventions made maximized energy savings for the School Complex and the Indoor Gyn, achieving savings of 45% and 40%, respectively, compared to the previous situation. Moreover, additional interventions were made, including: Energy Fire protection study, installation of a new lift and other improvements for persons with reduced mobility, installation of a lightning protection and surge arrester system, and maintenance and enrichment of green areas. With a total value exceeding €700,000, this particular social investment currently covers all educational and athletic needs of 1,700 school students and children from various areas of the Municipality of Rafina and other adjacent municipalities.
The program comprises the following main activities: (a) oak tree-planting and seeding action in areas affected by fires, (b) provision by highly qualified scientists of detailed information on fire prevention (with a possible small-scale pilot research activity involving the identification of fire hazards in a settlement), and (c) creation and production of a "10 Do's and Don'ts of correct tree planting" poster, together with an informative leaflet with instructions and details on correct planting, for distribution to all participating schools.

MYTLINEOS acknowledges that corruption, bribery, fraud and money laundering undermine the moral environment of businesses and have a wide range of negative effects that include violations of Human Rights, adverse impacts on the environment, distortion of healthy the competition and impediments to the distribution of wealth and to economic development. These effects represent a major hindrance to sustainable development, have a disproportionate impact on poor communities, and corrode the very fabric of society.
Addressing corruption and bribery is of major significance for MYTILINEOS, because: (a) it can contribute to improved risk identification, assessment and management, as well as to the Company's compliance with the laws, which for MYTILINEOS is a non-negotiable principle in every geographical region or country where it operates; (b) it can serve its business goals (such as fulfilling the relevant tendering requirements for construction projects) and (c) it can strengthen the Company's protection against fraud, embezzlement and abuse, further enhancing its corporate image.
Addressing corruption and bribery is a key element of the MYTILINEOS Code of Business Conduct and its Suppliers and Business Partners Code of Conduct. Moreover, the reference for the Company when it comes to addressing corruption and bribery, is the principle of integrity, which relates to its long-standing commitment to zero tolerance of corruption and bribery and is implemented by avoiding all transactions and contacts with any third party which may be guilty or suspect of encouraging conditions giving rise to corruption, extortion or bribery.

Compliance with the legislation (environmental, social and product-related) is a core element of the Company's business activity and a major issue of equal importance with the other issues that the Company is managing in the context of its continuous and responsible development. This view is based, first and foremost, on the principle of adherence to the provisions of the law, as well as to the agreements concluded and the voluntary commitments made by its Business Units.
Maintaining regulatory compliance at environmental, social and product level, in order to ensure that the overall corporate activity is lawful and corresponds to high standards of responsible entrepreneurship, strengthening the climate of trust between the Company and its Social Partners interacting with it (customers, employees, suppliers, administrative authorities etc.).

The solar parks became operational in the second half of 2019 and have a secured revenue stream via a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement ("PPA") through the Greek Renewable Energy operator (DAPEEP). The RSD business unit of MYTILINEOS already has internally approved solar power development investments projects of approximately 540MW, in Australia, Cyprus, Mexico, South Korea, Spain and the UK, with a goal of developing and transferring at least 1,500MW of solar power plant and storage development projects over the next five years.
The transaction is part of the broader strategy of the solar development business model ("Build-Operate-Transfer ("BOT") being rolled out through the newly created RSD business unit of MYTILINEOS. The business model leverages the global construction and development expertise of MYTILINEOS' subsidiary, METKA-EGN, having completed more than 1.2 gigawatt of solar power plants and 200 megawatts of energy storage projects in more than five continents.
Mytilineos, as a responsible social partner and enterprise is greatly concerned about the situation, the rapid spread of the virus and its effect on its operations but also on the economy and the broader society. At the present time, the safety of its employees is the ultimate priority. To that end, Mytilineos has implemented the following initiatives through a special task force, (the "Task Force") that reports to senior management, monitoring all developments and assessing potential impacts of Covid-19.
The Task Force, adhering to all protocols from the WHO and other relevant authorities, has already put in place a business continuity plan which is currently in full implementation. Ιt has established and maintains clear internal and external protocols for regular and emergency communication with employees and other key stakeholders.
Business travel has been limited and remote-work schemes are in place, wherever possible. Additional resource planning for staff who perform business-critical functions has also been put forth to minimize the risks of any operational disruption.
Τhe Company has taken the following additional actions:
• Back-up arrangements in case employees responsible for health and safety are unable to perform their roles
While we are not in a position to quantify or assess the full level of impact, potential risk factors that could affect our business are the following:
In addition to the ongoing operational risk management due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we have placed a heightened level of oversight toward protection of our healthy financial standing. Currently, our strong balance sheet and low leverage of [1.35x] net debt/EBITDA and a total liquidity that exceeds 1bn € with no material maturities until mid-2022, is an important mitigant to manage the current uncertainty. In light of these developments and given the uncertainties of the situation, we are undergoing a reassessment process for our Capex plan which could potentially lead us to defer or even cancel projects depending on the developments of the current situation.
Any potential impact to our results will depend on, to a large extent, ongoing developments, almost all of which are beyond our control. The Greek authorities' decision to implement quarantines and other emergency public health measures, though temporary in nature, may continue and increase depending on developments in the virus' outbreak.
As a result, because of the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 outbreak, the financial impact related to the outbreak and response to the coronavirus cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
MYTILINEOS S.A.

Each member of the Board has a duty of loyalty to the Company. Board members act with integrity and in the Company's interests and safeguard the confidentiality of information that is not publicly available. They must not have a relationship of competition with the Company and should avoid any position or activity that creates or appears to create a conflict between their personal interests and those of the Company, including holding positions on the board of directors or the management of competitor companies, without permission from the General Meeting of the Company's shareholders.

The Chairman coordinates and directs the Board's meetings and overall functioning. He heads the Board of Directors and is responsible for convening meetings, determining the agenda and ensuring the proper organisation of the Board's activities and the efficient conduct of its meetings. The Chairman is also responsible for ensuring the provision of timely and accurate information to the Board members, as well as for effective communications with all shareholders, seeking to guarantee the fair and equitable treatment of the interests of all shareholders.
The Chairman sets the board agenda assisted by the Company Secretary.
The board has 11 members (10 members as of 1/1/2020 because 1 independent member resigned on 31/12/2019 and will be replaced by AGM 2020) out of which three are company executives including the CEO, two members are non-executive, one of which is the Lead Independent Director (to be replaced by an independent member by AGM 2020) and the other is the Vice Chair A', and six members are independent. Both board committees, i.e. the Audit committee and the Remuneration & Nomination Committee are 100% independent. The division between the executives and the board is clear as described in the articles of association. The Company updated its articles of association at the AGM 2019 to comply with the revised Greek company Law 4548/2018 and the Shareholder Rights Directive II. Although no limits to other appointments and commitments have been set formally, avoiding overboarding is in the remit of the combined Rem Nom Committee.

In developing these criteria and recommending nominees, the Committee shall take into consideration such factors as it deems appropriate. These factors may include judgment, skill, diversity,
experience with businesses and other organizations of comparable size, , the interplay of the candidate's experience with the experience of other Board members, and the extent to which the candidate would be a desirable addition to the Board and any committees of the Board.

The board has appointed the Corporate Governance Director of the Company as Company Secretary so to have the necessary guidance and advice on corporate governance issues. The board committees worked together with Company Secretary to draft their terms of references which to be subsequently approved by the board.
Currently the board Chair is also the CEO of the company. The board is considering the separation of the Chair – CEO role but given that 80% of the board's composition was changed in mid-2018 the board supported the dual role, to familiarize itself the with the new structures that were put in place during the restructuring of the Company. The Company still intends to split the roles when the organization - both at Board and Management level - is fully prepared and equipped to operate under a new paradigm, while ensuring the vision, strategy and transformation of the Company is being materialized. Further safeguards have been put in place to mitigate concerns over the combined role: the board attains a high level of independence; both the Audit Committee and the Remuneration and Nomination Committee have full independence and, in compliance with international best practice and the request of our institutional investors, the Company has also appointed a Lead Independent Director who is available to engage with
our investors and act as the voice of the Board on governance related matters. The Company intends to strengthen this role of the Lead Independent Director by the 2020 AGM, to counterbalance the combined role even further.
Independent board members are approved as such by the shareholders at the time they stand for election. As mentioned in the terms of reference of the combined Remuneration &Nomination Committee, it is in the Committee's remit to review the independence of the non- executive directors before appointment. To this end the Committee reviews the

Finally, he is available and attends the General Meetings of the Company's shareholders, in order to discuss matters pertaining to corporate governance, as and when the need arises.
The Company intends to strengthen the role of the LID as of 2020 even further.
It is up to the shareholders to cast vote on appointing and removing board members whether executive or non-executive or independent non-executive, according to Greek law. It is up to the Remuneration &Nomination Committee to identify individuals believed to be qualified to become Board members, to review the qualifications of such candidates, and to recommend to the Board the nominees to stand for election as directors at the annual meeting of shareholders. It is part of the Committee's remit to approve the performance measures and targets of the Company's CEO, executive Chair and the executive board members remuneration schemes and to assess their performance against these targets.
Both board committees, Audit and RemNom, consist only of independent board members. Also two independent members sit on the CSR Committee in order to transfer board feedback.

Finally, the Corporate Secretary ensures the efficient organisation of the shareholder's meetings and the good communication in general of the latter with the Board of Directors, with a view to ensuring the Board's compliance with the applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

In November 2019 the RemNom Co commissioned a Board effectiveness review (processes and behaviours with focus on key issues) of the Board and its Committees for the board that was appointed at the AGM 2018, facilitated evaluation by Egon Zehnder.
The methodology used was qualitative questionnaire followed by structured face-to-face interviews with each Board member, covering both Board processes and behaviours. Also the external consultant observed a Board session. Findings and recommendations will to be presented to the RemNom and then to the Board before AGM 2020 . The board shall agree on action plan and progress will be monitored by the RemNom Committee.
The RemNom Committee was established by the Board of Directors resolution of 07.06.2018 and is composed of three (3) independent non-executive Board members. The Committee is supported by the Company Secretary. The Chair of the board is not a member of the committee.
The Company sought to achieve the optimum diversity of skills, views, competences, knowledge, qualifications and experience, including gender representation, in the composition of the Board. Support and assistance was provided by Egon Zehnder, who advised on the process of identifying needs, candidate assessment and selection of directors.
The selection and assessment process that the Company adopted was as follows:
The process of need identification involved profiling the required skill set and projected needs, key competencies functional skill sets and industry backgrounds for the members of the Company's Board. Based on these, role specifications were prepared, and the search strategy was defined.
The identification of potential candidates included individual early due diligence and background checks, in order to prepare a list of candidates who were then interviewed by the Company.
The core competencies used for assessing all individual candidates were the following:
In addition to the core competences, account was also taken of the following experiences, skills and qualities, so as to ensure that the Board as a whole would be credible and knowledgeable with sufficient business acumen, and able to properly evaluate corporate performance and support the Management, as well as to provide directions and guidance where and as required:
After reviewing the potential conflicts of interests of the nominees, the Company cane to the conclusion that no such conflicts existed.
The board has a term of four years and all of its members are subject to re-election. Elections take place every four years as required by Greek company law. The current board was appointed by the 2018 AGM. Nominees were submitted unbundled to the General Meeting of the Shareholders for approval.
The Chair serves over 27 years. However, since the merger of the company in 2017 the length of service for the Chair is 3 years. Mr. Mytilineos is the architect of the company strategy currently underway, so his vision, knowledge, and involvement are integral to its materialization.
The RemNom Co is working on overall succession planning, in order to ensure a stronger Board and a pipeline of talent to address the strategic challenges going forward. The aim is to complete this process by the end of 2020. Meanwhile, the role of the LID and overall board independence will be strengthened within 2020.
As per the appointment of the current board support and assistance was provided by an external consultant, Egon Zehnder, who advised on the process of identifying needs, candidate assessment and selection of nonexecutive directors. The consultant mentioned above has no other connection with the company or individual directors.
In November 2019 the RemNom Co commissioned a Board effectiveness review (processes and behaviors with focus on key issues) of the Board and its Committees for the board that was appointed at the AGM 2018, facilitated by Egon Zehnder.
The methodology used was qualitative questionnaire followed by structured face-to-face interviews with each Board member, covering both Board processes and behaviors. Also, the external consultant observed a Board session. Findings and recommendations will to be presented to the RemNom and then to the Board before AGM 2020 . The board shall agree on action plan and progress will be monitored by the RemNom Committee.
Once the evaluation has been concluded the RemNom Committee will monitor that possible weakness identified will be addressed.
The appointment process for the first board following the merger in AGM 2018 was externally supported by Egon Zehnder. In developing criteria for identifying and recommending nominees and also for evaluating director candidate's clear diversity targets were included.
There were no appointments during 2019. For future appointments the RemNom Committee shall prepare a description of the role, capabilities and personal attributes required for a particular appointment. Essential feedback for new appointments will come from the board effectiveness review which is underway together with the succession planning which is scheduled to be completed by year end 2020.
The Committee reviewed the non-executive directors as for:
By end 2019 the length of service on the board of the LID exceeded 9 years so the LID could not be considered independent. Also, one independent board member resigned at 31/12/2019. Following recommendation of the Committee the Board will appoint an independent board member as LID and will nominate a suitable independent candidate for the vacant board seat by AGM 2020. Thus, Independence stood at 50% at yearend but it is expected to rise to 64% in 2020.
The company has drafted a diversity policy for board members and senior executives and reports clear targets shown in detail in section 6 Diversity policy of the Corporate Governance Statement. Currently gender diversity at board level stands at 18% aiming for 27% by year end 2020.

The Company has defined risk as a set of uncertain and unpredictable situations that may affect all its activities, its business operation and its financial performance, as well as the implementation of its strategy and the achievement of its goals.
In line with this approach, it has established a specific risk management approach in all its areas of activity where certain risks have been recognized. This approach consists of the following steps:
All senior executives are involved in the identification and initial assessment of risks.
With regard to Non-Financial Information, since 2010 the Company has introduced a specific Stakeholder engagement process for evaluating the materiality of the sustainability issues which are related to its activity sectors. This process, combined with the corresponding prioritization of these issues by the Company's Business Units, is at the core of the accountability policy applied by the Company.
The process for determining the material sustainability issues is an ongoing exercise that is constantly developed and improved. The purpose of this process is to highlight the issues that reflect the Company's significant environmental and social impacts and influence substantially the decisions of its Stakeholders.
By identifying and understanding the material sustainability issues, the Company formulates and develops its uniform business strategy and its aims, targets and social and environmental initiatives.

At the 2019 AGM shareholders approved a new Board Remuneration Policy, compliant with SRDII, and effective for four years from 2019 unless earlier revised and/or amended by virtue of another General Meeting's resolution. The Policy was prepared with the help of an external consultant, Korn Ferry, and is in accordance with the EU Shareholder Rights Directive, as incorporated into Greek legislation by virtue of Law 4548/2018.
The Policy applies to the remuneration of all Company's members of the Board of Directors. The Policy sets out details of both (i) the current rights and obligations; and (ii) the terms under which future remuneration may be offered to current and / or new Directors during the Term.
The Policy considers European best practices for listed entities, whilst reflecting the current Executive Directors' remuneration arrangements. In addition, the Policy takes into consideration the provisions of the Company's articles of association, the Company's corporate governance code and the Company's Bylaws.
In short the board remuneration policy is as follows:
The remuneration policy for the Executive Directors contributes to the Company's business strategy and long-term interests and sustainability by:

There is no performance-based variable pay or pension provided to the non- executive Chairman or Non-Executive Directors.
Reasonable business expenses incurred by the Non-Executive Directors in carrying out their duties may be reimbursed by the Company such as professional courses, purchasing reading material to ensure they are up to date on any relevant matters, taking into account any internal policy that is applicable.
The complete remuneration policy document is available on the Company's website at the address https://www.mytilineos.gr/en-us/general-meetings/of-mytilineos-shareholders.
The Remuneration and Nomination Committee of the Company (the "Committee") has worked with all relevant units of the Company, as well as an independent remuneration consultant (Korn Ferry), to arrive at this Policy, which has been recommended to and approved by the Board of Directors by virtue of a resolution dated May 9, 2019.
The process for the approval of the Policy (and any amendments thereto) is determined by the Company's articles of association and Law 4548/2018.
The Committee submitted the Policy for approval to the Board of Directors. No member of the Board of Directors was present when their own remuneration is discussed. Once agreed by the Board of Directors, the Policy was submitted for approval at the Company's Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.
The Committee will consider regularly whether the Policy continues to be aligned to the Company's business strategy or whether amendments should be recommended to the Board of Directors. Every four years (or earlier on a need for change) on the recommendation of the Committee, the Board of Directors will seek the Shareholders' approval of any new Policy.
The aim of this Policy is to ensure the Company is remunerating its Directors on the basis of the Company's short and long-term business plan, so as to continue creating value for customers, shareholders, employees and the Greek economy.
The level of fixed pay – salary and board fees – for both Executive and Non-Executive Directors is established on the basis of paying fair and reasonable remuneration for the best and most appropriate person for the role, taking into account the level of responsibility, as well as the knowledge and experience required to deliver upon expectations, while ensuring that the Company pays no more than is necessary, always supporting its longer-term interests and sustainability.
The Policy provides for variable compensation arrangements for Executive Directors to further align the Executive Directors' interests with those of the Company as the performance conditions used will be based on indicators of the long-term success and sustainability of the Company.
The Policy does not include any variable compensation for Non-Executive Directors to ensure that there is no conflict of interest in the decision making of the Non-Executive Directors and their ability to challenge management's risk-taking decisions.
The Remuneration and Nomination Committee was constituted as a Committee of the Board of Directors of in accordance with the Articles of Association and the Company bylaws.
The role of the Committee is to assist the Board to fulfil its responsibility to shareholders to ensure that the remuneration policy and practices of the Company reward fairly and responsibly, with a clear link to corporate and individual performance, and to set the procedures and lead the process for Board appointments, to consider and make recommendations individuals as members of the Board, for Board approval, having regard to legal, statutory and regulatory requirements, investor guidelines and the UK Corporate Governance Code.
The Committee comprises of three members, all of whom are Independent Non-Executive Directors. The Chair of the Committee, who is also Independent Non-Executive Director, has been appointed by the Board. The Chair of the Committee had not served on a remuneration committee prior to his appointment, however as of 1 /1/2020 a new chair was appointed who has over 15 years' experience in Rem committees of international companies. The Chair of the Board cannot be a member of the Committee. In the absence of the Committee Chair the remaining members present shall elect one of themselves to chair the meeting.
The committee has not delegated responsibility but submits the policy for executive director remuneration to the board for approval. Fixed pay for the Chair, who is also the CEO currently, and for the executives of the Company is set by the Company taking into account levels of pay at other companies of a similar size for roles of similar scope and responsibility. Additionally, the contract for the Chair/CEO has been approved by a resolution of the general meeting of shareholders.
The remuneration policy for the Executive Directors, as for all employees, is based on the principle of paying fair and reasonable remuneration for the best and most appropriate person for the role while ensuring that the Company pays fairly and competitively and in the longer-term interests and sustainability of the Company.
The Committee and Board of Directors receive periodic updates on the wider employee remuneration structure and practices within the Company, which are considered when establishing and revisiting the Policy. This is to ensure that remuneration practices and structure are as consistent as possible across the Company, while acknowledging that the structure of remuneration for Executive Directors is necessarily different to that of less senior employees as a result of their role and ability to impact the performance of the business.
In addition, the Committee and Board of Directors are provided with information on remuneration trends across the Company including average pay increases along with any relevant economic data, such as the rate of inflation to take into account when operating the Policy.
The remuneration of the non-executive directors is determined by the board as set out in the Board Remuneration Policy. The remuneration of non-executive directors is not comparable to the structure of remuneration for the employees and executive directors of the Company. The Non-Executive Directors are paid a basic board fee which is fixed and covers for the time required to perform their duties. Supplemental fees may be paid to the Non-Executive Directors for additional responsibilities and activities, which exceed the scope of the duties assigned including but not limited to, attending site visits, and meetings with management.
The RemNom committee appointed an independent remuneration consultant, Korn Ferry to work with the committee in drafting the policy. The consultant assisted the Committee in their engagement with the Management Team and worked with all the relevant units of the company. To arrive at the policy the consultant discussed discuss with the Committee the requirements of L.4548/2018, which transposed the SRDII, and the UK Corporate Governance Code.
Temporary derogations from the Policy may be allowed in exceptional circumstances, for example in circumstances of recruitment or retention, where it is considered by the Board of Directors necessary to serve the long-term interests and sustainability of the Company as a whole, or to assure its viability. Any derogation is required to be considered and approved by the Board of Directors. The elements of the Policy from which a derogation is possible are those which determine short and long-term incentives.
Payments under the short-term incentive scheme will be subject to recovery for a period of at least 3 years from payment in the event of certain specified events including misstated financial statements of previous years or otherwise erroneous financial data used to calculate such short-term incentive scheme payouts and misconduct.
Retirement allowance is offered to executives in order to provide market competitive retirement benefits for recruitment and retention purposes. The Company may operate -is not, currently- a defined contribution pension plan in which the Executive Directors may participate. The maximum contribution from the Company for Executive Directors is up to 25% of Fixed Pay.
The remuneration committee should ensure compensation commitments in directors' terms of appointment do not reward poor performance. They should be robust in reducing compensation to reflect departing directors' obligations to mitigate loss.
In case of termination of contractual arrangements with Executive Directors at the initiative of the Company, notice periods and termination payments shall be as provided by the applicable law provisions each time. Currently, according to law, notice periods are up to 4 months based on the years of employment while the maximum amount for severance are 12 monthly salaries based on the years of employment.
Additionally, Executive Directors of the Board, in their capacity as such, are not entitled to severance payments or other compensation by the Company, for loss of office or otherwise howsoever arising. Reward to executive investors is provided for achieving short-term personal, strategic and financial Company performance and for value creation over the longer term through the use of long-term performance targets and awards of shares.
Last, payments under both the short-term and long-term incentive schemes will be subject to recovery for a period of at least 3 years from payment in the event of certain specified events including misstated financial statements of previous years or otherwise erroneous financial data used to calculate such shortterm incentive scheme payouts and misconduct.
The remuneration policy for the Executive Directors, as for all employees, is based on the principle of paying fair and reasonable remuneration for the best and most appropriate person for the role while ensuring that the Company pays fairly and competitively and in the longer-term interests and sustainability of the Company.
Shareholder voting guidelines on Executive Directors' remuneration and best practice were taken into consideration as part of the process in formulating the Board Remuneration Policy.
The Committee and Board of Directors receive periodic updates on the wider employee remuneration structure and practices within the Company, which are considered when establishing and revisiting the Policy. Also the General Manager of Human Resources is invited to attend all or part of any meeting of the Committee to provide input on employment trends.
The RemNom Committee held seven (7) meetings. Two of the Committee members attended all of the meetings but one (1) member who attended six (6) meetings. As it was the first time a remuneration policy was drafted for the new board that was appointed following the merger, in compliance with SRD II the Committee devoted almost 100% of its work on the remuneration policy. The work of The Committee is described in more detail above in the rest of section 1.5 "Remuneration" in the corporate governance statement.
The Committee prepares a remuneration report which is clear and understandable and provides a comprehensive overview of all types of remuneration regulated by the remuneration policy for the most recent financial year, containing as a minimum the information set out in article 112 of Law 4548/2018. The report also includes all types of benefits given or owed to the persons whose remuneration has been included in the remuneration policy, in the most recent financial year, irrespective of whether these are newly-elected or older members of the Board of Directors.
The remuneration report for the most recent financial year is submitted for deliberation to the ordinary General Meeting, as an item in the agenda.

Soon after the merger, the Company evaluated the structure of its Board of Directors, taking into account best corporate governance practices, and proposed a new Board which was elected by the Annual General Meeting of 07.06.2018. More specifically, in considering the Board's structure the Company set as a goal to maximise the independence and strengthen the capabilities of the Board as a body and the relevant practices applied, by attracting members that collectively could contribute the functional and industry competences required, so that the Company could tackle the challenges in its business development going forward.
In line with the above, the Company sought to achieve the optimum diversity of skills, views, competences, knowledge, qualifications and experience, including gender representation, in the composition of the Board.
Support and assistance was provided by Egon Zehnder, who advised on the process of identifying needs, candidate assessment and selection of directors.
The selection and assessment process that the Company adopted was as follows:
The process of need identification involved profiling the required skill set and projected needs, key competencies functional skill sets and industry backgrounds for the members of the Company's Board. Based on these, role specifications were prepared and the search strategy was defined.
The identification of potential candidates included individual early due diligence and background checks, in order to prepare a list of candidates who were then interviewed by the Company.
The core competencies used for assessing all individual candidates were the following:
In addition to the core competences, account was also taken of the following experiences, skills and qualities, so as to ensure that the Board as a whole would be credible and knowledgeable with sufficient business acumen, and able to properly evaluate corporate performance and support the Management, as well as to provide directions and guidance where and as required:
After reviewing the potential conflicts of interests of the nominees, the Company cane to the conclusion that no such conflicts existed.
The final list of nominees submitted unbundled to the General Meeting of the Shareholders for approval. Elected Board members serve a term of four years.
According to the Company's Articles of Association, the Board of Directors should be composed of no fewer than seven (7) and no more than fifteen (15) members.
The board has 11 members (10 members as of 1/1/2020 because 1 independent member resigned on 31/12/2019 and will be replaced by AGM 2020) and was elected by the General Meeting of the Shareholders on 07.06.2018 for a term of four (4) years, due to expire on 06.06.2022.

Annual Financial Report for the period
From the 1st January to the 31η December 2019
Mr. George Chryssikos, submitted his resignation from his position as an independent non-executive board member, as well as from his position as Chair of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee, for personal reasons, effective from 31.12.2019. Pursuant to article 21 of the Company's articles of association, the board of directors decided to continue to function in a ten-member composition until the 2020 Annual General meeting.
Each member of the Board has a duty of loyalty to the Company. Board members act with integrity and in the Company's interests and safeguard the confidentiality of information that is not publicly available. They must not have a relationship of competition with the Company and should avoid any position or activity that creates or appears to create a conflict between their personal interests and those of the Company, including holding positions on the board of directors or the management of competitor companies, without permission from the General Meeting of the Company's shareholders. Board members must contribute their experience and devote to their duties the necessary time and attention. Prior to their appointment, they should notify the Board of Directors of their other professional commitments, including significant non-executive commitments, to companies and non-profit institutions, and should report to the Board any changes in such commitments, as soon as these arise.
Finally, the Internal Audit Department reports to the Audit Committee any cases of conflict of the private interests of Board members with the interests of the Company, which (cases) it ascertains in the performance of their duties.
During 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company held 58 meetings. The table below shows the Board members' attendance of the meetings of the Board of Directors and of the Board Committees:

Concerning the number of Board meetings, we note that pursuant to the Greek Law, the Articles of Association of the Company and the relevant resolutions of the General Meetings of the shareholders regarding the delegation of authorities within the Board of Directors, collective action by the Board is required for a number of matters, such as for providing a corporate guarantee in favour of any third party, including companies associated with the Company. Taking also into consideration the Company's extensive activities in Greece and abroad via its EPC, Metallurgy, Electric Power and Gas Trading Business Units, the
Board of Directors must often act collectively, in the sense that there is a requirement for a relevant resolution which must be reflected in the minutes of the respective Board's meeting.
However, it should be noted that no administrative or other costs incur for the Company as a result of these resolutions. The relevant minutes of the Board's resolutions are drafted and are signed by circulation by all members of the Board, without a prior meeting of the Board taking place, pursuant to art. 94 of L. 4548/2018. More specifically, out of the total number of 58 minutes of the Board's meetings during 2019, 52 of them were drafted and were signed by all members of the Board without a prior meeting of the Board taking place.
The Remuneration and Nomination Committee which was established on 07.06.2018 is also responsible for the periodic evaluation of the size and composition of the Board of Directors, as well as for submitting proposals on the desired profile of the Board for the latter's consideration. This procedure is chaired by the Board's Non-Executive Vice-Chairman A'.

Immediately after the new Board members assumed their duties, an induction programme specifically developed for them was implemented: this included visits to the Company's production sites, informative meetings, presentations and discussions with key members of the Management, aimed at helping new members to understand the purpose and nature of the Company's business activities. The programme also relied on support provided by the Board's executive members, as well as by previous Board members, so as to ensure the fullest possible briefing and swift integration of the new Board members.
More specifically, during the second half of 2018, the Induction Programme consisted of extensive briefings by the Chairman & CEO on all activities and on matters of critical and material significance for the Company, as well as on individual matters covering strategy, operations and Management, as well as detailed presentations of the Company's Business Units by means of corresponding briefings by the General Manager Strategy, Mergers & Acquisitions, the Chief of Staff, the General Manager Electric Power and the Director Gas Trading. A visit was also organised and attended by all new Board members to the Company's aluminium plant in Aspra Spitia, Viotia, where they were given a guided tour of the plant by the General Manager of the Metallurgy Business Unit and had the opportunity to discuss with the local plant managers. The new Board members were also briefed by the Legal Department Manager and the Corporate Secretary on their obligations in accordance with the Code of Conduct, the Company's Internal Regulations of Operation, the stock exchange legislation, the policy on the protection of personal data, the Company's corporate governance framework and the overall policies and procedures which govern the operation of the Company.
Finally, individual meetings of the new Board members were also held with the Company's General Managers, as well as special meetings of the members of the Audit Committee and the Remuneration and Nomination Committee with the Directors responsible for Internal Audit, Compliance, Finance, and with the Chief of Staff, the Human Resources General Manager and the External Auditors of the Company.

Every member of the Committee is provided with appropriate information and training and is appropriately remunerated in relation to the time devoted to the Committee's work.
The Audit Committee meets at least four (4) times per year and its key responsibilities are to monitor the statutory audit of the Company's individual and consolidated financial statements, the financial reporting process and the effectiveness of the internal control systems, including the provision to the Internal Audit Department of general guidelines on the audit framework and the activities to be audited, to examine the activities of the Internal Audit Department, with a view to assessing its effectiveness, to receive regular updates on the progress of the activities of the Internal Audit Department and to confirm that significant problems and weaknesses identified, as well as the related recommendations, have been notified to and discussed in a timely manner with the Management, which has taken the necessary corrective actions. Additionally, the Audit Committee has the right, when it considers this to be necessary, to request from the Internal Audit Department or from third parties any information it deems necessary in order to properly carry out its work.

The shareholders' General Meeting's legal decisions also bind the shareholders who are absent or disagree.
The shareholders' General Meeting is convened by the Board of Directors, by the full Auditor of the Company upon the latter's request to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, by minority shareholders or, when the conditions applicable are in place, by another person or body explicitly provided for under the law. The General Meeting is held at the Company's seat or in the region of another municipality within the prefecture where the Company has its seat or in another municipality neighbouring the one where the Company has its seat, at least once a year, always in the first semester from the expiry of each fiscal year. The General Meeting can also be held in the municipality where the seat of the Stock Market where the Company's shares are listed. The Board of Directors can convene an extraordinary shareholders' General Meeting, when deemed necessary.
The General Meeting, with the exception of repeat meetings and the similar ones, should convene at least within twenty (20) full days before the one set for its convocation. It is clarified that non-working days are taken into account in calculating the 20-days time limit. The publication day of the invitation to the General Meeting and the day of the meeting are not taken into account. The invitation to the General Meeting contains as a minimum the following information: the building, with exact address details; the date and time of the meeting; the agenda items, clearly defined; the shareholders entitled to participate; precise instructions on the manner in which shareholders shall be able to participate at the meeting and exercise their rights in person or by proxy or even remotely; the rights of the shareholders, with reference of the time period within which any such right may be exercised or, alternatively, the deadline by which such rights may be exercised; detailed information on such rights and terms for the exercise thereof must be made available by means of express reference in the notice to the Company website; the procedure for the exercise of the voting right by proxy and in particular the forms used by the Company for this purpose as well as the means and methods provided in order for the Company to receive electronic notices for the appointment and recall of proxies; determination of the date of record, with explicit mention of the fact that only those persons having shareholder status as at such date shall have the right to participate and vote at the General Meeting; the place where the complete text of the documents and draft resolutions shall be available as well as the manner that these may be obtained, and the Company website address, where the information regarding the rights of the shareholders prior to the General Meeting shall be available. No invitation is required if shareholders representing the total of the share capital are presented or represented and no one objects to its convocation and decision taking.
Remote participation at the General Meeting is possible using audiovisual or other electronic means, without the shareholder being physically present at the place where the General Meeting is held. In addition, remote participation at the vote is permitted, by electronic means or by correspondence, to be taken prior to the General Meeting session. Under a resolution passed by the Board of Directors the aforementioned options are given effect, any one or all of them, in respect of one or more General Meeting sessions or for a specified time period, the relevant technical and procedural details are specified, and procedures are adopted for establishing the participant's identity and the origin of the vote, as well as for securing the electronic or other connection.
The General Meeting is in quorum and validly meets on the items on the agenda when a percentage of at least twenty per cent (20%) of the paid-up share capital is represented. If such a quorum is not achieved in the first Assembly, a repeat one is convened within twenty (20) days from the date of the postponed meeting by invitation of the Board of Directors sent at least ten (10) days before. The repeat meeting is in quorum and validly meets on the items on the agenda whatever the part of the paid-up share capital represented. A new invitation is not required, if the original invitation specified the place and time for repeat sessions in case no quorum is present at the original General Meeting session, provided the adjourned and the reiterative sessions are a minimum of five (5) clear days apart.
The decisions of the General Meeting are taken with the absolute majority of the votes represented in the meeting. The General Meeting is exceptionally considered to be in quorum and validly meets on the items on the agenda if at least one half (1/2) of the paid-up share capital are represented, in the case of decisions pertaining to a change of the nationality of the Company, a change of the business object of the Company, increase of shareholders' obligations, ordinary increase of share capital unless imposed under the law or effected by means of capitalization of reserves, share capital reduction except when it is in accordance with para. 5 of article 21 of Law 4548/2018 or para. 6 of article 49 of Law 4548/2018, a change in the manner of appropriation of profits, merger, split, conversion, revival, term extension or dissolution of the Company, the granting or renewal of power to the Board of Directors for share capital increase, pursuant to para. 1 of art. 24 of Law 4548/2018, as well as in all other cases in which the law specifies that the General Meeting shall adopt resolutions under a qualified quorum and majority. Resolutions for these matters are passed with by a majority of two thirds (2/3) of the votes represented at the General Meeting.
The General Meeting is provisionally chaired by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or, the if the Chairman is unable to attend, by his Deputy, appointed by the Board of Directors by special decision to this purpose. Secretarial duties are performed by the secretary appointed by the Chairman. After the list of the shareholders with a right to vote is approved, the meeting continues with the election of its Chair and a secretary who also acts as a teller.
The discussions and decisions of the General Meeting are restricted to the items on the agenda. The agenda is prepared by the Board of Directors and includes the proposals of the Board to the General Meeting and possible proposals made by the auditors or shareholders representing one twentieth (1/20) of the paid-up share capital. For the items discussed for which decisions are taken, minutes are kept, signed by the Chair and the Secretary. The list of the shareholders present or represented in the General Meeting is recorded at the beginning of the minutes.
The shareholders exercise the rights relevant to the Company's administration only with their participation in the General Meeting. Each share provides the right of one vote in the General Meeting.
Right to participate and vote at the General Meeting have only the natural persons or legal entities who appear as shareholders of the Company in the Dematerialized Securities System File of the Company, which is kept electronically with the company "Greek Central Securities Depository SA" (ATHEXCSD) at the beginning of the fifth (5th) day prior to the original general meeting (record date). The aforementioned record date applies in the case of postponed or repeated meeting, given that the adjourned meeting or repeated meeting is not more than thirty (30) days from the record date pursuant to article 124 par. 6 of law 4548/2018. It is noted that in the case of repeated general meeting no new invitation will be published, in accordance with the provisions of article 130 of law 4548/2018.
Proof of shareholding status may be evidenced by any means and in any case based on information received by the Company directly through electronic connection with ATHEXCSD' files. Those entitled to participate and vote at the General Meeting are only the individuals who qualify as shareholders on the said record date. In case of non-compliance with the provisions of article 124 of law 4548/2018, the shareholders may participate at the General Meeting only after permission by the general meeting.
Exercise of said rights does not presuppose blocking of the beneficiary's shares nor adherence to any other similar procedure, which restricts the possibility of the sale and transfer of such shares during the period between the record date and the relevant ordinary general meeting.
Shareholders who are entitled to participate at the annual general meeting may cast their vote either in person or by proxy. Each shareholder may appoint up to three (3) proxies. Legal entities participate at the ordinary general meeting by appointing up to three (3) natural persons as their representatives. However, if a shareholder holds shares in the Company, which appear in more than one securities' account, such restriction does not prevent such shareholder to appoint different proxy for the shares that appear in each securities' account in relation to the ordinary general meeting. A shareholder may appoint a proxy for one or more general meetings and for specific timeframe. The proxy casts vote according to the instructions of the shareholder, if any. Non-compliance of the proxy with the received instructions does not affect the validity of the general meeting's resolutions, even if such proxy's vote was decisive for achieving the majority.
Appointment as well as revocation or replacement of the shareholder's representative takes place in writing and is submitted to the Company's headquarters at least forty eight (48) hours prior to the scheduled ordinary general meeting. The proxy is obliged to notify the Company, prior to the commencement of the ordinary general meeting, of any specific fact, which might be useful to the shareholders, in their assessment of the risk the proxy serving interests other than their own. Conflict of interest may arise in particular in cases where the proxy: a) is a controlling shareholder of the Company or is a legal person or entity controlled by such shareholder; b) is a member of the Board of Directors or in general of the management of the Company or of a controlling shareholder, or of another legal person or entity controlled by such shareholder; c) is an employee or an auditor of the Company or of a controlling shareholder, or of another legal person or entity controlled by a controlling shareholder; d) is a spouse or a first degree relative of a natural person referred to in cases a to c above.
According to article 121 paragraph 4 of law 4548/2018, the shareholders have the following rights provided for in article 141 paragraphs 2, 3, 6 and 7 of law 4548/2018:
i) Article 141 paragraph 2 of law 4548/2018: At the request of shareholders representing 1/20 of the paidup share capital, the board of directors is obliged to include additional items in the agenda of the general meeting, provided that the relevant request is received by the board of directors at least fifteen (15) days prior to the general meeting. The additional items must be published or disclosed under the responsibility of the board of directors in accordance with article 122 of law 4548/2018 at least seven (7) days prior to the general meeting. The request to include additional items in the agenda must be accompanied by a justification or by a draft decision to be adopted by the general meeting. The revised agenda must be published in the same manner as the previous agenda, thirteen (13) days before the date of the general meeting and at the same time must be also made available to shareholders on the Company's website, along with the justification or the draft decision submitted by the shareholders, in accordance with article 123 paragraph 4 of law 4548/2018. If these additional items are not published, the requesting shareholders are entitled to request the adjournment of the general meeting in accordance with article 141 paragraph 5 of law 4548/2018 and to make the publication themselves, in accordance with the second subparagraph of this paragraph (and article 141 paragraph 2 of law 4548/2018) at Company's expense.
ii) Article 141 paragraph 3 of law 4548/2018: Shareholders representing 1/20 of the paid-up share capital, have the right to submit draft decisions which have been included in the initial or revised agenda of the general meeting. Such request must be furnished to the board of directors at least seven (7) days before the date of the general meeting, and said draft decisions are made available to the shareholders according to the provisions of article 123 paragraph 3 of law 4548/2018 at least six (6) days before the general meeting.
iii) Article 141 paragraph 6 of law 4548/2018: Following a request submitted to the Company by any shareholder at least five (5) full days prior to the general meeting, the board of directors is obliged to provide to the general meeting the requested specific information on the Company's affairs, to the extent that this may be useful for the assessment of the items on the agenda. The board of directors may provide a single response to shareholders' requests with the same content. The obligation to provide information does not apply in the event that the information requested is already available on the Company's website, especially in the form of questions and answers. At the request of shareholders representing 1/20 of the paid-up share capital, the board of directors is obliged to announce to the ordinary general meeting the amounts that have been paid during the last two years to each member of the board of directors or to the Company's managers, as well as any benefits that were granted to them for any reason or on the basis of their contract with the Company. In all the above cases, the board of directors may refuse to provide such information for substantive ground, as recorded in the minutes. Such a reason may be, in the circumstances, the representation of the requesting shareholders to the board, in accordance with articles 79 or 80 of law 4548/2018. In the cases of this paragraph, the board of directors may respond in a single application to shareholders with the same content.
iv) Article 141 paragraph 7 of law 4548/2018: At the request of shareholders representing at least one tenth (1/10) of the paid-up capital which is submitted to the Company within the period referred to in article 141 paragraph 6 of law 4548/2018, the board of directors is obliged to provide to the general meeting information on the course of the corporate affairs and assets of the Company. The board of directors may refuse to provide such information for substantive ground, as recorded in the minutes. Such a reason might be, as the case may be, the representation of the applicant shareholders on the Board, in accordance with articles 79 or 80 of law 4548/2018, provided that the respective members of the board of directors have received relevant information sufficiently.
v) Article 141 paragraph 8 of law 4548/2018: In the cases referred to in article 141 paragraphs 6 and 7 of law 4548/2018, any question as to the merits or not of the grounds of refusal on the part of the board of directors to provide the requested information, shall be resolved by court's decision, issued in interim injunction proceedings. By the same decision, the court obliges the Company to provide the information denied. The decision is not subject to any legal remedies.
In all above cases, the requesting shareholders must prove their capacity as shareholders, as well as the number of shares they hold, during the exercise of their right, except for in case of the first subparagraph of paragraph 6 of article 141 of law 4548/2018. The shareholding is certified though online connection of the Company with ATHEXCSD.
The reliability of the Company's Financial Statements is ensured by the application of Internal Control and Risk Management Processes. The Company has put in place separate procedures for the monthly, interim and annual Financial Reports.
More specifically, every month the Management Information Systems Department of the Company receives from the Finance Business Partners financial data and information, which it proceeds to check and then use to prepare reports for submission to the Management of the Group. This information is produced in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards. Every month, the Management of the Group is updated on the changes to the consolidated key financial indicators by means of relevant management reports. This monthly monitoring approach, coupled with the checking of the consolidated financial statements and the analyses performed on the latter are the key tools used in the quality and consistency control of the financial results.
With regard to the Interim and Annual consolidated Financial Statements, the Company employs an advanced software tool to consolidate the financial results and statements, as well as to generate reports for the Management as well as for investors and other interested parties. This software tool is automatically updated with data from the Group's accounting monitoring program and includes controls to ensure accurate transfer and accounting recognition of the input data. The Management Information Systems Department ensures the smooth operation of the software tool and checks the integrity and correctness of the consolidated Financial Statements and other reports, providing the Chief Finance Officer, the External Auditors and the Management of the Company with all necessary information.
The External Auditors examine the consolidated Interim and Annual Financial Reports and report to the Audit Committee on the progress and results of their audits for each reporting period. The Audit Committee is informed of the procedure and schedule for the preparation of the Financial Statements by the Group Chief Finance Officer and holds meetings with the Management / the responsible executives during the preparation of the financial reports. It obtains from the Chief Finance Officer the necessary information on the Group's performance and consolidated Financial Statements and reports to the Board of Directors accordingly. During these meetings, the Audit Committee is also informed about the management of financial risks and assesses the effectiveness of the risk management system. The Financial Statements (Individual and Consolidated) are approved by the Board of Directors, following a relevant report from the Audit Committee.
The Company has defined risk as a set of uncertain and unpredictable situations that may affect all its activities, its business operation and its financial performance, as well as the implementation of its strategy and the achievement of its goals.
In line with this approach, it has established a specific risk management approach in all its areas of activity where certain risks have been recognised. This approach consists of the following steps:
The Company has established specific and comprehensive Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) processes. All senior executives are involved in the identification and initial assessment of risks, so as to facilitate the work of the Executive Committees of each Business Unit, as well as of the Board of Directors of each legal person, in the planning and approval of specific actions in the context of the approved ERM processes.
With regard to Non-Financial Information, since 2010 the Company has introduced a specific Stakeholder engagement process for evaluating the materiality of the sustainability issues which are related to its activity sectors. This process, combined with the corresponding prioritisation of these issues by the Company's Business Units, is at the core of the accountability policy applied by the Company.
The process for determining the material sustainability issues is an ongoing exercise that is constantly developed and improved. The purpose of this process is to highlight the issues that reflect the Company's significant environmental and social impacts and influence substantially the decisions of its Stakeholders.
By identifying and understanding the material sustainability issues, the Company formulates and develops its uniform business strategy and its aims, targets and social and environmental initiatives.
Last but not least, the Company conducts regular internal audits to ensure the appropriate and effective implementation of the risk identification and assessment processes and of the management policies for such risks.
Moreover, the following are examined and analysed on a continuous basis:
Audit Department. The above allow the Board to form a detailed opinion of the effectiveness of the systems, processes and regulations of the Company.
The external auditors do not offer to the Company and to the Group non-audit services which are prohibited, as per the provisions article 5 of Regulation (EU) 537/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council and of law 4449/2047.
MYTILINEOS S.A. (the "Company"), remaining engaged in its commitment to the implementation of best Corporate Governance practices and in compliance with the provisions of article 2 of Law 4403/2016, aims to apply the principle of Diversity (based, among other basic parameters, on gender, age, experience, skills and knowledge) to the composition of its Board of Directors, of its executive management team and of all direct employees in all its activities, where this is feasible. To this end, the Company hereby adopts the present Diversity Policy (hereinafter the "Policy").
The Company acknowledges that in an era in which flexibility and creativity are the keys to competitiveness, promoting diversity in its administrative, management and supervisory bodies is particularly significant for its further business growth.
The Company also acknowledges that diversity at the workplace in the broader sense may increase the potential for accessing a greater range of solutions to issues of business strategy, thus increasing its competitive advantage.
The procedure of searching for and selecting candidates for Board membership or other senior executive positions should take place using merit-based and objective criteria, taking account of the benefits that result from the application of the principle of diversity, including the representation of both genders, in the said procedure.
A precondition for the appointment of a Board member or other senior executive is primarily the existence of the necessary qualifications and the fulfilment of other criteria, as these are specified by the Company. However, the procedure should ensure that women and men will have equal opportunities of being selected as candidates.
If the Company, through its competent bodies (e.g. Committee for the evaluation of candidate Board members or the Human Resources Central Support Function), employs the services of third parties, such as independent consultants, in connection with searching for candidates for Board membership or for senior executive positions, explicit mention should be made of the fact that both women and men are to be proposed.
In the framework of the annual evaluation of the Board of Directors and of its Committees, the members of the Board and of the Committees should take into consideration the balance of all diversity parameters applicable to the Board, as these are mentioned in the present Policy.
Despite the fact that most of its activities are in the heavy industries sector, the Company aims to facilitate the broader possible participation of women and young people in its workforce, where feasible, always in accordance with the requirements and opportunities in each one of its Business Units.
Managing and capitalising on diversity represents a major organisational business challenge for the Company. Investing in the development of managerial skills, so that senior executives can correctly manage a potentially multicultural work environment, is considered necessary.
At the time of adoption of the present Policy, the Company sets as its objective the achievement of the following target percentages concerning the representation of women by 2020:
The Policy is applied to the procedure for the selection of members of the Company's Board of Directors and is taken into account in the procedures for searching for and selecting senior executives as well as personnel at all other levels of the Company's hierarchy.
The Committee for the nomination of candidate Board members is charged with the revision of the present Policy. The Committee may examine any revisions which may be required and propose them to the Board of Directors for approval.
The Policy is posted on the Company's website (www.mytilineos.gr) for the purpose of informing its Stakeholders and the public at large.
In the "Statement of Corporate Governance" section of its Annual Report, the Company reports its performance against the targets set, together with the percentages – by gender and age – of the members of the Board and of the executive management team.

The information required in accordance with article 10 par. 1 of Directive 2004/25/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council is contained, as per the stipulations of article 4 par. 7 and par. 8 of Law 3556/2007, in the Explanatory Report, which is presented above.

To the Shareholders of "MYTILINEOS S.A."
We have audited the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements of the company "MYTILINEOS S.A." (the Company), which comprise the separate and consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2019, and the separate and consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flow for the year then ended, as well as a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.
In our opinion, the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) as of December 31, 2019, and of their financial performance and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as endorsed by the European Union.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as they have been transposed in Greek Legislation. Our responsibilities under those standards are described in the "Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements" section of our report. During our audit, we remained independent of the Company and the Group, in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) as transposed in Greek legislation and the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements in Greece. We have fulfilled our responsibilities in accordance with the provisions of the currently enacted law and the requirements of the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the separate and the consolidated financial statements of the current annual period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate and the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Group and Company's revenues arose from differentiated operating segments. Given the complexity of the volume of transactions, the use of IT systems as well as management's judgements and estimates, which include an uncertainty, revenue recognition has been considered as a key audit matter.
More specifically, Group revenues arose from electricity retailing are determined though IT systems and include judgments and computations in areas as unbilled revenue from customers. Moreover, Group's construction revenues are determined based on their percentage of completion, as the fraction of actual cost to total estimated cost until the completion of each construction.
Group and Company's disclosures for the accounting policy, judgements and estimates used for revenues are included in explanatory notes 2.1.1, 2.2, 2.5, 2.20 and 3.1 of the financial statements.

with definite useful life, tangible assets and investments in subsidiaries and associates are tested for impairment whenever there are related indications.
Taking into consideration the significant amounts of the non-current assets mentioned above and the use of management's assumptions and estimates for the determination of the relative recoverable amounts, we consider this area as a key audit matter.
Impairment testing requires the determination of recoverable amounts based on the value in use of the assets. Value in use is derived from the discounted cash flow method, based on business plans which incorporate key management's assumptions and estimates.
Management's assumptions and estimates are mainly related to the future prices of LME, petroleum products, gas and electricity. They are also related to the estimation of future exchange rates and discount rates. Furthermore, macroeconomic environment's volatility, competition as well as regulatory developments could affect the operating performance of the Group's cash generating units.
As at December 31, 2019, an impairment loss of €0,4 mil. has been recognized for the Group and the Company in relation to the above categories of non-current assets.
Group and Company's disclosures for the accounting policy, assumption and estimates used for the analysis of the above non-current assets are included in explanatory notes 2.2, 2.4, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 of the financial statements.
As at December 31, 2019, the Group and the Company are engaged (as defendant or claimant) in numerous and complex litigation claims and arbitration procedures in the course of their operation.
The determination of provisions or disclosures of contingent liabilities and contingent assets which relate to litigation claims and arbitration procedures has been considered as a key audit matter as it includes significant management judgments based on legal advisors' estimations. The estimations relate both to the outcome of each claim and the potential economic impact for the Group and the Company.
Our audit approach included, among others, the following procedures:

the effect of pending litigation claims on Group's and Company's financial position.
• We assessed the adequacy of the related disclosures included in explanatory notes 2.2, 2.19, 3.17 and 3.36 of the financial statements.
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information is included in the Board of Directors' Report, as referred to the "Report on other Legal and Regulatory Requirements" section, in the Declaration of the Board of Directors Representatives but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the separate and consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the separate and consolidated 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 and consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the procedures performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein; we are required to communicate that matter. We have nothing to report in this respect.
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the separate and consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as endorsed by the European Union, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of separate and consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the separate and consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group'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 or the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Audit Committee (art. 44 of Law 4449/2017) of the Company is responsible for overseeing the Company's and the Group's financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate and the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an 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, as they have been transposed in Greek Legislation, 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 and consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs as they have been transposed in Greek Legislation, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
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 consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters.
Taking into consideration that management is responsible for the preparation of the Board of Directors' Report which also includes the Corporate Governance Statement, according to the provisions of paragraph 5 of article 2 (part B) of L. 4336/2015, we note the following:
Taking into account that management is responsible for preparation of the separated financial statements, which include the separated per activity statement of financial position of the Company and the Group as at December 31, 2019 and the separated per activity income statement before tax of the Company and the Group for the period January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019 in accordance with the provision of L.4001/2011 and the decision No.43/2014 of Regulatory Authority of Energy (RAE) we note that in our opinion the separated financial statements, as presented in the annex I of the notes of the financial statements of the Company and Group, have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of L.4001/2011 and the decision No.43/2014 of RAE.
Our audit opinion on the separate and the consolidated financial statements is consistent with the additional report to the Audit Committee referred to in article 11 of EU Regulation 537/2014.
We have not provided to the Company and its subsidiaries any prohibited non-audit services referred to in article 5 of EU Regulation No 537/2014.

The allowed services provided to the Company and the Group, in addition to the statutory audit, during the year ended December 31, 2019 have been disclosed in Note 3.20 to the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements.
We were appointed as statutory auditors for the first time by the General Assembly of shareholders of the Company on June 25, 2003. Our appointment has been, since then, uninterrupted renewed by the Annual General Assembly of shareholders of the Company for 17 consecutive years.

Mytilineos S.A. is today one of the biggest industrial Groups internationally. The Company, which was founded in 1990 as a metallurgical company of international trade and participations, is an evolution of an old metallurgical family business which began its activity in 1908. During the last decade the Company's has gradually expenses its operations from traditional sectors of international metal's trading to metallurgy in the domains of Integrated Projects and Infrastructure and Electricity and Natural Gas. The Group's objective is to develop synergies between three different operation segments by assigning the role of management and strategy to Mytilineos S.A.
During FY 2017, corporate restructuring was completed through absorption of the subsidiary companies ALUMINUM OF GREECE, METKA, Protergia and Protergia THERMOELECTRIC AGIOS NIKOLAOS by Mytilineos S.A. The only change arising following the Corporate Restructuring is conversion of the non-controlling shareholders of METKA into shareholders of the new entity.
Devoted to continuous growth and progress and aiming to be a leader in all its activities, the Group promotes through its long presence its vision to be a powerful and competitive European Group of "Heavy Industry".
The group's headquarters is located in Athens – Maroussi (8 Artemidos Str., P.C. 151 25) and its shares were listed in the Athens Stock Exchange in 1995.
The financial statements for the year ended 31.12.2019 (along with the respective comparative information for the previous year 2018), were approved by the Board of directors on 18.03.2020 and the approval of the Annual General Meeting of shareholders is pending.
During the last ten years the Group's activities have expanded from the traditional sector of international metal's trading to those of construction and energy. The group aims in the development of synergies between the three different areas of activities, by delegating the role of management and strategy formation in Mytilineos Holdings S.A. Following the decision of the Regular General Meeting of the Company's shareholders as of 01-06-2017, its corporate objective has been amended as follows:
a. Participation in other entities capital, b. Production and manufacture in Greece of alumina and aluminum and their marketing in any country, c. Industrial production of metal structures of various kinds, d. Design, construction, operation, maintenance, management and operation of power plants from every source; e. Production, marketing, supply, transportation and distribution of electricity, f. Performance of all types of construction, repair and dissolution works regarding vessels and defense material in general, g. Production, extraction, acquisition, storage, gasification, transmission, distribution and transfer (including sale/supply) of natural gas, h. Conduct of studies, construction of public and private technical works of any kind, assembly and installation of manufactured constructions and products produced by the Company in Greece and abroad, i. Construction, operation and exploitation of plumbing, sewerage and other related facilities that will serve the purposes of the Company and/or third parties that cooperate with it; j. Production and sale of steam, water (demineralized, for extinguishing etc) k. Rendering various services to third parties cooperating with the Company, such as a) anti-pollution services, b) fire fighting, c) monitoring and recording of air quality, d) collection, transportation, disposal and management of solid and liquid wastes and storm sewage, l. Preparation of feasibility studies, production processes, operation of power stations and thermal production of all kinds, m. Acquisition, construction, sale and resale of real estate and all types of rental leases, installation, construction and exploitation of mines and quarries, factories and industrial departments, n. Rendering consultancy services in the domains of organization, administration and business management, risk management, IT systems, financial management, o. Rendering services in respect of market research, analyzing investment plans, performing studies and projects, commissioning, supervising and managing related projects, risk management and strategic planning, development and organization, and p. Performing all types of business transactions and undertaking all types of operations either directly or indirectly related to the above corporate objective.
The Γroup monitors its performance on Metallurgy & Mining Sector through the subsidiaries "Aluminium S.A." (Alumina–Aluminium) and "Sometra S.A." (Zinc–Lead). Zinc – Lead Sector was the first which effected from the negative economic environment mainly due to the decrease on demand, the increasing prices of coke and the difficulty to find appropriate Raw Materials. All the above mentioned reasons lead the General Assembly of the company on 26.01.2009 to suspend temporary the production activity (note 3.27).
The Group through its subsidiary METKA is the leading and most specialized EPC Constructor in Greece and expanded in competitive markets abroad with value of pending construction contracts amounting to € 914.8 mio (note 3.1).
With a portfolio of 1.2 GW of installed capacity from thermal plants operating since 2012 and over 1,000 MW RES in different stages of development , the Group is established as the as the country's largest independent energy producer.

These new BESS projects follow on from the similar projects completed in 2017 and 2018 for the same client, which provided Fast Frequency Response (FFR) and other ancillary services to the National Grid in the UK. Execution of the projects is already advanced, with one of the new sites and the expansions already completed, while the remainder of the portfolio will be completed in Q1 2020. Upon completion, METKA EGN will have installed battery energy storage systems in the United Kingdom with a total capacity of 230MW with energy storage of 315MWh, further strengthening its positioning as one of Europe's market leading solution providers for utility scale battery energy storage systems.
The consolidated financial statements of MYTILINEOS S.A. as of December 31st 2019 covering the entire 2019 fiscal year, have been compiled based on the historic cost principle as amended by the readjustment of specific asset and liability items into market values, the going concern principle and are in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) that have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and their interpretations that have been issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) of the IASB.
According to the IFRS, the preparation of the Financial Statements requires estimations during the application of the Group's accounting principles. Important admissions are presented wherever it has been judged appropriate.
The reporting currency is Euro (currency of the country of the domicile of the parent Company) and all amounts are reported in thousands unless stated otherwise.
The accounting principles and calculations based upon under the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied for the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements for FY ended as at 31 December 2018 and successively applied to all the presented periods, apart from the below mentioned amendments, adopted by the Group as at 01/01/2019. The Group proceeded with the first time adoption of IFRS 16 "Leases". The nature and the effect of all the amendments are analyzed in the following paragraphs.
The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments of IFRSs have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), are adopted by the European Union, and their application is mandatory from or after 01/01/2019.
In January 2016, the IASB issued a new Standard, IFRS 16. The objective of the project was to develop a new Leases Standard that sets out the principles that both parties to a contract, i.e. the customer ('lessee') and the supplier ('lessor'), apply to provide relevant information about leases in a manner that faithfully represents those transactions. To meet this objective, a lessee is required to recognise assets and liabilities arising from a lease. The effect of the new Standard in the consolidated and separate Financial Statements is analyzed in Note 2.1.3.
In June 2017, the IASB issued a new Interpretation, IFRIC 23. IAS 12 "Income Taxes" specifies how to account for current and deferred tax, but not how to reflect the effects of uncertainty. IFRIC 23 provides requirements that add to the requirements in IAS 12 by specifying how to reflect the effects of uncertainty in accounting for income taxes. The new Interpretation affects the calculation and accounting of income tax.
In October 2017, the IASB published narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 9. Under the existing requirements of IFRS 9, an entity would have measured a financial asset with negative compensation at fair value through profit or loss as the "negative compensation" feature would have been viewed as introducing potential cash flows that were not solely payments of principal and interest. Under the amendments, companies are allowed to measure particular prepayable financial assets with so-called negative compensation at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income if a specified condition is met. The amendments do not affect the consolidated/ separate Financial Statements.
In October 2017, the IASB published narrow-scope amendments to IAS 28. The objective of the amendments is to clarify that companies account for long-term interests in an associate or joint venture – to which the equity method is not applied – using IFRS 9. The amendments do not affect the consolidated/ separate Financial Statements.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs – 2015-2017 Cycle (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2019) In December 2017, the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRSs – 2015-2017 Cycle, a collection of amendments to IFRSs, in response to several issues addressed during the 2015-2017 cycle. The issues included in this cycle are the following: IFRS 3 - IFRS 11: Previously held interest in a joint operation, IAS 12: Income tax consequences of payments on financial instruments classified as equity, IAS 23: Borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The amendments do not affect the consolidated/ separate Financial Statements.
In February 2018, the IASB published narrow-scope amendments to IAS 19, under which an entity is required to use updated assumptions to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the reporting period after an amendment, curtailment or settlement to a plan. The objective of the amendments is to enhance the understanding of the financial statements and provide useful information to the users. The amendments do not affect the consolidated/ separate Financial Statements.
The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments of IFRSs have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), but their application has not started yet or they have not been adopted by the European Union.
In March 2018, the IASB issued the revised Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework), the objective of which was to incorporate some important issues that were not covered, as well as update and clarify some guidance that was unclear or out of date. The revised Conceptual Framework includes a new chapter on measurement, which analyzes the concept on measurement, including factors to be considered when selecting a measurement basis, concepts on presentation and disclosure, and guidance on derecognition of assets and liabilities from financial statements. In addition, the revised Conceptual Framework includes improved definitions of an asset and a liability, guidance supporting these definitions, update of recognition criteria for assets and liabilities, as well as clarifications in important areas, such as the roles of stewardship, prudence and measurement uncertainty in financial reporting. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01/01/2020.
In March 2018, the IASB issued Amendments to References to the Conceptual Framework, following its revision. Some Standards include explicit references to previous versions of the Conceptual Framework. The objective of these amendments is to update those references so that they refer to the revised Conceptual Framework and to support transition to the revised Conceptual Framework. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01/01/2020.
In October 2018, the IASB issued amendments to its definition of material to make it easier for companies to make materiality judgements. The definition of material helps companies decide whether information should be included in their financial statements. The updated definition amends IAS 1 and IAS 8. The amendments clarify the definition of material and how it should be applied by including in the definition guidance that until now has featured elsewhere in IFRS Standards. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01/01/2020.
In September 2019, the IASB issued amendments to some specific hedge accounting requirements to provide relief from potential effects of the uncertainty caused by the Interest Rate Benchmark reform. The amendments are designed to support the provision of useful financial information by companies during the period of uncertainty arising from the phasing out of interest – rate benchmarks such as interbank offered rates (IBORs). It requires companies to provide additional information to investors about their hedging relationships which are directly affected by these uncertainties. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01/01/2020.
In October 2018, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 3 to improve the definition of a business. The amendments will help companies determine whether an acquisition made is of a business or a group of assets. The amended definition emphasizes that the output of a business is to provide goods and services to customers, whereas the previous definition focused on returns in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits to investors and others. In addition to amending the wording of the definition, the Board has provided supplementary guidance. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.
In May 2017, the IASB issued a new Standard, IFRS 17, which replaces an interim Standard, IFRS 4. The aim of the project was to provide a single principle-based standard to account for all types of insurance contracts, including reinsurance contracts that an insurer holds. A single principle-based standard would enhance comparability of financial reporting among entities, jurisdictions and capital markets. IFRS 17 sets out the requirements that an entity should apply in reporting information about insurance contracts it issues and reinsurance contracts it holds. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.
In January 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 that affect requirements for the presentation of liabilities. Specifically, they clarify one of the criteria for classifying a liability as non-current, the requirement for an entity to have the right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. The amendments include: (a) specifying that an entity's right to defer settlement must exist at the end of the reporting period; (b) clarifying that classification is unaffected by management's intentions or expectations about whether the entity will exercise its right to defer settlement; (c) clarifying how lending conditions affect classification; and (d) clarifying requirements for classifying liabilities an entity will or may settle by issuing its own equity instruments. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.
The group and the company proceeded with the adoption of IFRS 16 "leases" from 1 January 2019. IFRS 16 introduces a single model for the recognition of leases in the financial statements. By adopting the standard, the Group as a lessee recognizes in the statement of financial position rights of use of assets and lease obligations, the date when the leased fixed assets are made available for use. The accounting treatment of leases for the lessor remains the same as in IAS 17.
The group and the company applied IFRS 16 using the simplified method of transition. According to this method, the standard is applied retroactively with the cumulative effect of its application being recognized on 1 January 2019. According to the above, the comparative information of 2018 has not been reworded and presented in accordance with IAS 17. Changes in accounting policies regarding leases are analyzed below.
The group and the company lease various assets such as plots, buildings, means of transport and machinery.
As a lessee, with the previous accounting policy, the group and the company classified leases as operating or financing based on the assessment if all risks and benefits related to ownership of a component of the Assets, irrespective of the final transfer or non-ownership of the title of the item. According to IFRS 16, the right to use assets and lease obligations is recognized for most of the leases to which it contracts as a tenant, except for small-value leases, the payments of which were registered with a fixed method in the statement of results throughout the duration of the lease.
The recognized rights to use assets are related to the following categories of assets and are presented in the "Right-of-use Assets":
| MYTILINEOS GROUP | MYTILINEOS S.A. | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (Amounts in thousands €) | 12/31/2019 | 1/1/2019 | 12/31/2019 | 1/1/2019 |
| Right -of -use Land plots | 11.980 | 12.299 | 12 | 16 |
| Right -of -use Properties | 33.258 | 37.189 | 31.911 | 35.813 |
| Right -of -use Vehicles | 2.819 | 3.202 | 2.384 | 2.784 |
| Right -of -use Equipment | 104 | 153 | - | - |
| Right -of-use Assets | 48.160 | 52.843 | 34.307 | 38.613 |
The group reflects the lease obligations on the "long term lease obligations" and "long term lease obligations payable to the next use" in the statement of financial position.
Leases are recognized in the statement of financial position as a right to use an asset and a lease obligation, the date on which the leased fixed asset becomes available for use. Each rent is divided between the rental obligation and interest, which is charged to the results throughout the lease, in order to obtain a fixed interest rate for the remainder of the financial liability in each period.
The rights to use assets are initially measured at their cost, and then reduced by the amount of accumulated depreciation and any impairment. The right to use is depreciated in the shortest period between the useful life of the component or its duration, with the fixed method. The initial measurement of the rights of use of assets consists of:
Finally, they are adjusted to specific recalculations of the corresponding lease liability.
Lease liabilities are initially calculated at the present value of rents, which were not paid at the start of the lease. Discounted at the imputed rate of the lease or, if this interest rate cannot be determined by the contract, with the differential lending rate (IBR). The differential lending rate is the cost that the lessee would have to pay to borrow the necessary capital in order to obtain an item of similar value with the leased asset, in a similar economic environment and with similar terms and assumptions.
Lease liabilities include net present value of:
After their initial measurement, the lease obligations are increased by their financial cost and are reduced by the payment of rents. Finally, they are reassessed when there is a change: a) to rents due to a change of index, b) to the estimation of the amount of residual value, which is expected to be paid, or c) to the assessment of a choice of purchase or extension, which is relatively Certain that it will be exercised or a right of termination of the contract, which is relatively certain that it will not be practiced.
The group and the company during the transition made use of the following practical facilities provided by IFRS 16 for leases classified as functional, in accordance with IAS 17.
Use of previously made assessments under applying IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 to determine whether a contract contains a lease, or whether a contract is a lease on the date of initial application.
Use of accounting treatment of operating leases for leases with a maturity of under 12 months from 1 January 2019.
Use of a single discount rate on a lease portfolio with similar characteristics.
Excluding initial direct costs for measuring the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application.
When tangible assets are leased by leasing, the present value of rents is registered as a requirement. The difference between the gross amount of the claim and the present value of the claim is recorded as deferred financial income. The revenue from the lease is recognized in the usage results during the lease using the net investment method, which represents a constant periodic return. The group and the company do not contract with the status of lessor.

Preparations of financial statements under IFRS requires the management to apply judgments, make estimates and use assumptions that affect publisized amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as at the financial statements preparation date and publicized amounts of revenue and expenses for the reporting period. The actual results may differ from estimated.
Estimations are reassessed on an on-going basis and are based on both – past experience and other factors, such as expectations of future events deemed reasonable under the current conditions.
The applied accounting principles and judgments of the management, apart from those pertaining to estimates, that have the most significant effect on the amounts, recognized in the financial statements, mainly pertain to the following:
Allowances for doubtful receivables are based on historical date on recoverability of receivables and take into account the expected credit risk. The method, applied by Company, facilitates calculating the expected credit losses over the life of its receivables. The methods is used on past experience, but is adapted in order to reflect projections for the future financial condition of customers and economic environment. Balancing historical data and future financial conditions with the expected credit losses requires applying significant estimates. The amount of the allowance is recognized as an expense in other operating expenses in the income statement.
Adequate allowances are made for obsolete, useless and slow moving inventory. Impairment in net realizable value of inventory and other losses are recorded in the income statement for the period when incurred.
Estimating specific amounts, included or affecting financial statements and related disclosures required making assumptions in respect of values or circumstances that can not be known with certainty at the time of financial statements preparation. Significant accounting estimate is defined as an estimate significant to the company's financial position and results, which requires the most difficult, subjective or complex management judgments, often arising from the need to make estimates regarding the effect of assumptions that are uncertain. The Group assesses such assumptions on an on-going basis, taking into close consideration historical data and experience, discussions with experts, current trends and other methods considered appropriate, under the effective conditions, in line with the projections as to how the change in the future.
Significant accounting estimates and judgments of the Management applied under the preparation of the current financial statements are consistent with those applied in the annual financial statements as of December 31st 2017. The following issues are to be noted following the above and in particular, regarding the financial statements as of 31/12/2018:
The Group tests goodwill for potential impairment on annual basis and whenever events or circumstances indicate that impairment may be effective (ex. a major adverse change in the corporate environment or a decision to sell or dispose of a reporting unit). Determining whether an impairment is effective requires valuation of the respective reporting unit, estimated applying a discounted cash flow method. When deemed available and as appropriate, comparative market multiples are applied in order to verify the results arising from discounted cash flows. When applying the particular method, the Management relies on a number of factors, including actual operating results, future business plans, economic projections and market data.
Should this analysis indicates the existence of goodwill impairment, its measurement requires estimating fair value of every identified tangible or intangible asset. In this case, cash flow approach is applied, as recorded above, by independent appraisers, whenever deemed appropriate.
Other identified intangible assets with defined useful lives, subject to amortization, are tested for impairment through comparing the carrying amount to the aggregation of undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment on annual basis applying a fair value method such as discounted cash flows.
The Group tests goodwill for impairment annually, in accordance with the accounting principles recorded in Note 3.3. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations, which require the use of accounting estimates.
The accounting treatment of revenues and expenses of a construction contract depends on whether the final result of the contract can be estimated reliably (and is expected to generate profit or loss for the beneficiary). When the result of a construction contract can be estimated reliably then all the respective revenues and expenses related to the contract are recognized during the term of the contract. The Group uses the percentage of completion method to determine the appropriate amount of the respective revenue and expense to be recognized in every period. The percentage of completion is calculated as the contracted cost realized over the total budgeted cost of construction for each project. Therefore, significant management estimates are required with regard to the gross result regarding the completed construction (estimated cost of execution).
The Group and the Company are subject to income tax in numerous tax jurisdictions. Significant estimates are required while determining provisions for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group and the Company recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of the extent, to which additional taxes will be imposed. When the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the initially recorded amount, such differences will affect the income tax and provisions for deferred tax in the period when the aforementioned amounts have been determined.
The Group operates in the sectors of Metallurgy, Integrated Construction & Infrastructures, Electricity and Natural Gas Trading. The environmental impacts, potentially to be generated by the aforementioned activities, may cause rehabilitation costs. For the determination of environmental rehabilitation costs and the time they may occur , the Group performs the relevant analyzes and makes assessments using specialized technical and legal consultants. The Group makes a provision in its financial statements for the estimated environmental rehabilitation costs when these are considered probable.
In the ordinary course of its business operations, the Group gets involved in litigations and claim. The Management estimates that none of the resulting settlements would materially affect the financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2018. However, determining contingent liabilities relating to litigations and claims is a complex procedures, involving s judgments as to potential outcomes and interpretation of legislations and regulations.
The Company Mytilineos S.A. which resulted from the merger of its subsidiaries METKA, ALUMINUM OF GREECE, PROTERGIA and PROTERGIA THERMO AGIOS NIKOLAOS presents separately the result from discontinued operations as described below. In 2009, applying IFRS 5 "Non-current assets held for sale & discontinued operations", the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary company SOMETRA S.A. were presented separately, regarding which a decision was made on January 26, 2009 on temporary suspension of the production activity of the Zinc-Lead production plant in Romania, and presents also the amounts recognized in the income statement separately from continuing operations. Given the global economic recession, there were no feasible scenarios for the alternative utilization of the aforementioned financial assets.
Consequently, since 2011, by applying par. 13 of IFRS 5 "Non-current assets Held for Sale" Zinc-Lead («SOMETRA S.A.») production ceases to be an asset held for sale and is considered as an asset to be abandoned. The assets of its operations returned to continuing operations while at the same time, it continued to show separately the result of the discontinued operation in the income statement.
On 31/12/2015, SOMETRA S.A., contributed the Zinc-Lead activity, through a spin – off process, to its newly established subsidiary Reycom Recycling S.A. (REYCOM). The said spin - off is part of the "Mytilineos Group" restructuring process, regarding the Zinc-Lead discontinued operation, targeting on the production of Zn & Pb oxides through the development of a recycling operation of metallurgical residues.
Within the same frame, on 29/11/2016 the cross-border merger of the subsidiary REYCOM and the subsidiary company ALUMINUM OF GREECE (ATE) was completed.
(a) Subsidiaries: Subsidiaries are entities (including special purpose entities) in which the Group holds more than half of the voting rights or has the ability to direct the financial and operating principles followed.
The existence of potential voting rights that are exercisable at the time the financial statements are prepared, is taken into account in order to determine whether the parent exercises control over the subsidiaries.
Subsidiaries are consolidated completely (full consolidation) using the purchase method from the date that control over them is acquired and cease to be consolidated from the date that control no longer exists.
The acquisition of a subsidiary by the Group is accounted for using the purchase method. The paragraph "2.8 Intangible Assets - Goodwill" presents the accounting treatment of goodwill. The acquisition cost of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets given as consideration, the shares issued and the liabilities undertaken on the date of the acquisition plus any costs directly associated with the transaction. The individual assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that are acquired during a business combination are valued during the acquisition at their fair values regardless of the participation percentage. The acquisition cost over and above the fair value of the individual assets acquired is booked as goodwill. If the total cost of the acquisition is lower than the fair value of the individual assets acquired, the difference is immediately transferred to the income statement.
Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized profits from transactions between Group companies are eliminated in consolidation. Unrealized losses are also eliminated except if the transaction provides indication of impairment of the transferred asset. The accounting principles of the subsidiaries have been amended so as to be in conformity to the ones adopted by the Group.
Transactions with minorities: For the accounting of transactions with minority, the Group applies the accounting principle based on which such transactions are handled as transactions with third parties beyond the Group. The sales towards the minority create profit and losses for the Group, which are booked in the results. The purchases by the minority create goodwill, which is the difference between the price paid and the percentage of the book value of the equity of the subsidiary acquired.
(b) Associates: Associates are companies on which the Group can exercise significant influence but not "control" and which do not fulfill the conditions to be classified as subsidiaries or joint ventures. The assumptions used by the group imply that holding a percentage between 20% and 50% of a company's voting rights suggests significant influence on the company. . Investments in associates are initially recognized at cost and are subsequently valued using the Equity method. At the end of each period, the cost of acquisition is increased by the Group's share in the associates' net assets change and is decreased by the dividends received from the associates.
Any goodwill arising from acquiring associates is contained in the cost of acquisition. Whether any impairment of this goodwill occurs, this impairment decreases the cost of acquisition by equal charge in the income statement of the period.
After the acquisition, the Group's share in the profits or losses of associates is recognized in the income statement, while the share of changes in reserves is recognized in Equity. The cumulated changes affect the book value of the investments in associated companies. When the Group's share in the losses of an associate is equal or larger than the carrying amount of the investment, including any other doubtful debts, the Group does not recognize any further losses, unless it has guaranteed for liabilities or made payments on behalf of the associate or those that emerge from ownership.
Unrealized profits from transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated according to the Group's percentage ownership in the associates. Unrealized losses are eliminated, except if the transaction provides indications of impairment of the transferred asset. The accounting principles of the associates have been adjusted to be in conformity to the ones adopted by the Group.
(c) Investments in joint ventures: Investments in joint ventures are classified according to IFRS 11" Joint Arrangements", or "Joint Operation", or "Joint Venture". The classification is based upon each participating parties' rights and obligations arising from the joint arrangement. The Group by assessing the nature and the special characteristics of the investments, classifies, as at 31/12/2017, an investment in joint venture recognized based on the equity method.
Investments in joint ventures according to the equity method are initially recognized at cost and are then adjusted to the Group's share of profits or losses and other comprehensive income of the joint ventures. When the Group's share of losses of a joint venture is equal to or exceeds its interest in that joint venture, the Group does not recognize any further losses unless it has entered into commitments or has made payments on behalf of the joint venture.
Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and joint ventures are eliminated by the Group's participation in the joint ventures. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless there is evidence of the transaction for impairment of the asset transferred.
MYTILINEOS Group consists of three main operating business segments: a) Metallurgy and Mining, b) EPC and Infrastructure and c) Electric power and gas trading. According to IFRS 8 - Operating Segments, the management monitors the operating result of each business segment individually for decision making regarding resources allocation and performance appraisal.
(a) Functional currency and presentation currency
The measurement of the items in the financial statements of the Group's companies is based on the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates (operating currency). The consolidated financial statements are reported in euros, which is the operating currency and the reporting currency of the parent Company and all its subsidiaries.
(b) Transactions and balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are converted to the operating currency using the rates in effect at the date of the transactions.
Profits and losses from foreign exchange differences that result from the settlement of such transactions during the period and from the conversion of monetary items denominated in foreign currency using the rate in effect at the balance sheet date are posted to the results. Foreign exchange differences from non-monetary items that are valued at their fair value are considered as part of their fair value and are thus treated similarly to fair value differences.
The Group's foreign activities in foreign currency (which constitute an inseparable part of the parent's activities), are converted to the operating currency using the rates in effect at the date of the transaction, while the asset and liability items of foreign activities, including surplus value and fair value adjustments, that arise during the consolidation, are converted to euro using the exchange rates that are in effect as at the balance sheet date.
Operating results and equity of all Group's companies (excluding those opening in hyperinflationary economies), that their operating currency is not the same as Group's, are translated to Group's presentation currency as follows:
(i) Assets and liabilities are presented and translated according to the exchange rate at the balance sheet date.
(ii) Sales and expenses of the Profit and Loss statement are translated according to the average exchange rate of the balance sheet period.
(iii) Foreign exchange differences arising from the above are registered at equity account "Translation Reserve".
Goodwill and fair value revaluation arising from subsidiary acquisition, operating abroad, are registered as assets/liabilities at subsidiary accounts and are converted according to fixing rate at each time.
Fixed assets are reported in the financial statements at acquisition cost or deemed cost, as determined based on fair values as at the transition dates, less accumulated depreciations and any impairment suffered by the assets. The acquisition cost includes all the directly attributable expenses for the acquisition of the assets.
Subsequent expenditure is added to the carrying value of the tangible fixed assets or is booked as a separate fixed asset only if it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the Group and their cost can be accurately and reliably measured. The repair and maintenance cost is booked in the results when such is realized.
Depreciation of tangible fixed assets (other than Land which are not depreciated) is calculated using the straight line method over their useful life, as follows:
220
| Buildings | 25-35 years |
|---|---|
| Mechanical equipment | 4-30 years |

The residual values and useful economic life of tangible fixed assets are subject to reassessment at each balance sheet date. When the book value of tangible fixed assets exceeds their recoverable amount, the difference (impairment) is immediately booked as an expense in the income statement.
Upon sale of the tangible fixed assets, any difference between the proceeds and the book value are booked as profit or loss to the results. Expenditure on repairs and maintenance is booked as an expense in the period they occur.
Self-constructed tangible fixed assets constitute an addition to the acquisition cost of tangible assets at a value that includes the direct cost of employee's salaries (including the relevant employer's contributions), the cost of materials used and other general costs.
The intangible assets include Goodwill, the rights of use of Property, plant and equipment, software licenses, licenses for the production, installation and operation of renewable energy assets and thermal energy assets, the environment rehabilitation expenditure.
Software Software licenses are valued in cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation. Costs that improve or prolong the performance of software programs beyond the original technical specifications or software conversion costs are included in the cost of acquiring intangible assets with a prerequisite that they can be measured reliably. Maintenance of software programs is recognized as an expense when the expense is incurred. Software licenses are valued in cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method during the assets' useful life that range from 1 to 3 years.
Production, Installation and Operation Licenses of Renewable Energy Assets and Thermal Energy Assets: The different types of licenses entitles the group either with the right to construct an energy asset or the right to produce and sell energy. Current market conditions provide adequate evidence about the recoverable amount of such licenses.
The Group, upon acquisition, recognized these permits as intangible assets at their fair value and then measured them using the cost model, according to which the asset is measured at cost (which is the acquisition cost of the asset value as described above) less depreciation and any impairment provision. Therefore the Group has recognized licenses as intangible assets at fair value less depreciation and less any provision for impairment. Depreciation is carried out using the straight-line method over the useful life of those items, which is 30 years for gas-fired power plants and 20 years for renewable electricity. The Group runs impairment tests on a yearly basis using the following methodology:
i) Attach possibility factors according to management estimation regarding the construction of assets under license.
ii) Runs Discounted Cash Flows (DCF) methodology using assumptions prevailing at the energy market. The period regarded by the management for provisions exceeds the five years encouraged by IAS 36 as, especially for the renewable energy assets, there is satisfactory visibility for a substantially longer period.
iii) The final recoverable amount is calculated for a total portfolio of either renewable or thermal energy assets by multiplying the overall possibility factor with the outcome of the DCF valuation.
iv) Finally, the Group compares the recoverable value calculated to be the value-in-use of the assets with their carrying amounts.
When the recoverable value is less than the carrying amount an equal impairment provision is charged to the income statement.
Legal rights to explore mines: The legal rights to explore mines concern rights that the group has acquired mining mineral reserves in several geographical areas. In cost of the mining rights, apart from nominal value of the rights, any cost that relates to the initial evaluation of the rehabilitation cost of the area where work has been done, the commitment of the Group either during the acquirement of the right or as a result of its use for a certain time period. The depreciation time period that is adopted by the Group does not exceed 10 years.
Right of Use of Tangible Assets:. Rights of exploitation of tangible assets that are granted in the frames of conventions of manufacture of work (compensative profits) are valued in cost of acquisition, which equals their fair value at the date of their concession, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the "production units method".
Research and Development Expenses: Research and Development expenditures are recognized as expenses when they are realized. The expenses which arise from the developing programs (related to the design and the test of new or improved products) are capitalized if it is possible to produced future economic benefit. The other development expenditures are booked as an expense in the results when they are realized. Previous years' development expenditures recognized as expenses, can not be capitalized in the future fiscal years. The capitalized development expenses are depreciated from the beginning of the product's economic life using the straight line method during the period of the product's future economic benefits. The Group's depreciation period doesn't exceed the 5 years.
Land Stripping & Restoration expenses: Land Stripping & Restoration expenses are capitalized and amortized using the unit of production method.
Goodwill on Acquisition: is the difference between the asset's acquisition cost and fair value and the net assets of the subsidiary / associate company as at the acquisition date. During the acquisition date, the company recognizes this surplus value, emerged from acquisition, as an asset and presents it in cost. This cost is equal to the amount by which the acquisition cost exceeds the company's share in the net assets of the acquired company.
After the initial recognition, the surplus value is valued at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The surplus value is not depreciated, but is reviewed on an annual basis for possible decrease in its value (impairment), if there are events that indicate such a loss according to IAS 36.
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. A cash generated unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets generating cash inflows independently and represents the level used by the Group to organise and present each activities and results in its internal reporting. Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating units, to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount (typically the value in use) of the cash-generating units is less than their carrying amount an impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods. The Group performs its annual impairment test of goodwill as at 31 December.
In the case where acquisition cost is less than the company's stake in the acquired company's net assets, the former recalculates the acquisition cost and valuates the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired company. Any difference prevailing after the recalculation is recognized directly in the income statement as a profit.
Assets with an indefinite useful life are not depreciated and are subject to an impairment review annually and when some events suggest that the book value may not be recoverable any resulting difference is charged to the period's results. Assets that are depreciated are subject to an impairment review when there is evidence that their value will not be recoverable. The recoverable value is the greater between the net sales value and the value in use. An impairment loss is recognized by the company when the book value of these assets (or cash generating unit- CGU) is greater than its recoverable amount.
Net sales value is the amount received from the sale of an asset at an arm's length transaction in which participating parties have full knowledge and participate voluntarily, after deducting any additional direct cost for the sale of the asset, while value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows that are expected to flow into the company from the use of the asset and from its disposal at the end of its estimated useful life.
A financial asset or financial liability is recognized in the statement of financial position of the Group when it arises or when the Group becomes part of the contractual terms of the financial instrument.
Financial assets are classified at initial recognition and are subsequently measured at amortized cost at fair value through other comprehensive income and fair value through profit or loss.
Initially, the Group measures financial assets at fair value. Trade receivables (which do not contain significant financial assets) are carried at transaction price.
If a financial asset is to be classified and measured at amortized cost or at fair value through comprehensive income, it shall generate cash exclusively pertaining to capital and interest repayments of the initial capital. The business model applied by the Group for the purposes of managing financial assets refers to the way in which it manages its financial capabilities in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will arise from collecting contractual cash flows, disposal of financial assets, or both. Acquisition or disposal of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a timeframe specified by a regulation or a contract is recognized as at the transaction date, i.e. as at the date when the Group makes a commitment to acquire or to dispose of the asset.
To facilitate subsequent measurement purposes, financial assets are classified into the following categories:
a) Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss
Financial assets 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 they are defined as effective hedging instruments. Financial assets with cash flows referring not only to capital and interest payments are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.
b) Financial assets at amortized cost
The Group measures financial assets at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met: (1) the financial asset is held in order maintain financial assets for the purposes of collecting contractual cash flows; and (2) the contractual terms of the financial asset generating cash flows at specified dates only pertain to capital and interest payments on the balance of the initial capital.
Financial assets which are measured at amortized cost, subsequently apply the Effective Interest Rate Method (EIR) and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized, modified or impaired. c) Financial assets at fair value through total comprehensive income
Upon initial recognition, the Group may decide to irrevocably classify its investment participations as equity instruments designated at fair value through total comprehensive income when they meet the definition of equity and are not held for trading. Classification is determined per financial instrument. Profits and losses from these financial assets are never recycled to profits or losses. Equity instruments designated at fair value through total comprehensive income are not subject to impairment test. The Group has decided to classify its non-listed shares into this category.
A financial asset is derecognized when:
The Group recognizes provision for impairment for expected credit losses regarding all financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss. Expected credit losses are based on the balance between all the payable contractual cash flows and all discounted cash flows that the Group expects to receive.
Regarding trade receivables, the Group applies simplified approach in order to calculate expected credit losses. Therefore, at every reporting date, provision for losses regarding a financial instrument is measured at an amount equal to the expected credit losses over its lifetime without monitoring changes in credit risk.
Fair value of financial assets traded on active markets (stock exchanges) is determined by the quoted prices effective as at the balance sheet date. Fair value of financial assets not traded on active markets is determined applying valuation techniques and assumptions based on market data at the end of the reporting period.
Inventories are valued at the lower of acquisition cost and net realizable value. The cost of finished and semi-unfinished products includes all the costs incurred to locate them at their current storage and processing point and consists of raw materials, labor, general industrial costs and packaging costs. The cost of inventories is determined by operating segment and by their nature, using acceptable measurement methods that are consistent with the financial statements preparation framework. The cost of inventories does not include financial expenses.
Net realizable value is the estimated sales price during the normal course of the company's business less any relevant sales expenses. Provision for slow moving or depreciated stocks is made when deemed necessary.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in the bank and in hand as well as short term highly liquid investments such as money market products and bank deposits and overdrafts, as well as other high liquidity investments that are directly convertible to specific amounts of cash that are subject to a non-significant risk of change in value.
For the purpose of preparing the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash available include cash and balances with banks as well as cash as stated above.
The Group classifies a long-term asset or a group of assets and liabilities as held for sale if their value is expected to be recovered principally through the disposal of the items and not through their use.
The key prerequisites for the classification of a long-term asset or a group of assets (assets and liabilities) as held for sale are the asset or the group available for direct sale in their current state and the completion of the sale depends only on from normal and formal conditions for sales of such items and the sale should be highly probable.
Immediately prior to the initial classification of the asset or group of assets and liabilities as held for sale, the asset (or all of the assets and liabilities included in the group) are measured using the IFRS applicable in each case.
Long-term assets (or groups of assets and liabilities) classified as held for sale are valued (after initial classification as above) at the lower of their value in the financial statements and their fair value less direct costs disposal, and the resulting impairment losses are recognized in the income statement. Potential increase in fair value in a subsequent measurement is recognized in the income statement but not in excess of the impairment loss initially recognized.
From the date when a long-term asset (or long-term assets included in a group of assets and liabilities) is classified as held for sale, no depreciation is accounted for on such long-term assets.
Expenses incurred for the issuance of shares reduce, after deducting the relevant income tax, the proceeds from the issue. Expenses related to the issuance of shares for the purchase of companies are included in the acquisition cost of the company acquired. Where any Group company purchases the Company's equity share capital (Treasury shares), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs is deducted from equity attributable to the Company's equity holders until the shares are cancelled, reissued or disposed of. Where such shares are subsequently sold or reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs, is included in equity attributable to the Company's equity holders. Treasury stock does not hold any voting rights.
The tax for the period comprises current income tax and deferred tax, i.e. the tax charges or tax credits that are associated with economic benefits accruing in the period but have been assessed by the tax authorities in different periods. Income tax is recognized in the income statement of the period, except for the tax relating to transactions that have been booked directly to Equity. In such case the related tax is, accordingly, booked directly to Equity.
Current income taxes include the short-term liabilities or receivables from the fiscal authorities that relate to taxes payable on the taxable income of the period and any additional income taxes from previous periods (tax audit differences).
Current taxes are measured according to the tax rates and tax laws prevailing during the financial years to which they relate, based on the taxable profit for the year. All changes to the short-term tax assets or liabilities are recognized as part of the tax expense in the income statement.
Deferred income tax is determined according to the liability method which results from the temporary differences between the book value and the tax base of assets or liabilities. Deferred tax is not booked if it results from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction, except for a business combination, which when it occurred did not affect neither the accounting nor the tax profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are valued based on the tax rates that are expected to be in effect during the period in which the asset or liability will be settled, taking into consideration the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been put into effect or are essentially in effect up until the balance sheet date. In the event where it is impossible to identify the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences, the tax rate in effect on the day after the balance sheet date is used.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that there will be a future tax profit to be set against the temporary difference that creates the deferred tax asset.
Deferred income tax is recognized for the temporary differences that result from investments in subsidiaries and associates, except for the case where the reversal of the temporary differences is controlled by the Group and it is possible that the temporary differences will not be reversed in the foreseeable future.
Most changes in the deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized as part of the tax expense in the income statement. Only changes in assets or liabilities that affect the temporary differences are recognized directly in the Equity of the Group, such as the revaluation of property value that results in the relevant change in deferred tax assets or liabilities being charged against the relevant Equity account.
Short-term employee benefits (except post-employment benefits) monetary and in kind are recognized as an expense when they accrued. Any unpaid amount is booked as a liability, while in the case where the amount paid exceeds the amount of services rendered, the company recognizes the excess amount as an asset (prepaid expense) only to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction of future payments or to reimbursement.
227
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated before the normal retirement date, or whenever an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group's liabilities for retirement benefits concern both defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. The accrued cost of defined contribution plans is recognized as an expense in the period in question. Retirement plans adopted by the Group are funded partly through payments to insurance companies or state social insurance funds.
According to the defined contributions scheme, the (legal or implied) obligation of the company is limited to the amount that it has been agreed that it will contribute to the entity (i.e. pension fund) that manages the contributions and provides the benefits. Thus the amount of benefits the employee will receive depends on the amount the company will pay (or even the employee) and from the paid investments of such contributions. The payable contribution from the company to a defined contribution scheme, is either recognized as a liability after the deduction of the paid contribution, or as an expense.
According to laws 2112/20 and 4093/2012 the Company pays to their personnel benefits for employment termination or retirement. The benefits are related to, employment years, remuneration amount and whether the employment was terminated or due to retirement. The maturity of the right to participate to these schemes, usually depends upon service years of the employee till retirement.
The liability that is reported in the balance sheet with respect to this scheme is the present value of the liability for the defined benefit less the fair value of the scheme's assets (if there are such) and the changes that arise from any actuarial profit or loss and the service cost. The commitment of the defined benefit is calculated annually by an independent actuary with the use of the projected unit credit method. For discounting 2016 the selected interest rate is related to the tendency of iBoxx AA Corporate Overall 10+ EUR indices, consistent to IAS19 guidelines and suitable for long term provisions that consists of bonds corresponding to the currency and the duration relative to employees' benefits.
A defined contribution scheme, defines based on several parameters such as age, service years, remuneration amount, certain obligations for defined benefits. The provisions relating to the period are included in personnel cost at company and Group P&L statements and consist of current and past employment cost, the pertinent financial cost, the actuarial gain or loss as well as any additional charges. Regarding not recognized actuarial gain or loss, amended IAS19R is adopted, that includes a series of amendments regarding accounting treatment of defined benefits scheme, amongst other:
recognition of actuarial profit/(loss) in other comprehensive income statement
non-recognition of annual return on benefits scheme in profit and loss accounts
The Group recognizes Government Grants that cumulatively satisfy the following criteria: a) There is reasonable certainty that the company has complied or will comply to the conditions of the grant and b) it is probable that the amount of the grant will be received. Government Grants are booked at fair value and are systematically recognized as revenues according to the principle of matching the grants with the corresponding costs that they are subsidizing.
Government Grants that relate to assets are included in long-term liabilities as deferred income and are recognized systematically and rationally as revenues over the useful life of the fixed asset.
Provisions are recognized when the Group has present obligations (legal or constructive) as a result of past events, their settlement through an outflow of resources is probable and the exact amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated. Provisions are reviewed during the date when each balance sheet is compiled so that they may reflect the present value of the outflow that is expected to be required for the settlement of the obligation. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed, except if the probability that there will be an outflow of resources that embody economic benefits is very small. Contingent claims are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed provided that the inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Income: Income includes the fair value of goods and services sold, net of Value Added Tax, discounts and returns. Intercompany revenue within the Group is eliminated completely. The recognition of revenue is done as follows:
The expenses that refer to the contract are recognized when occur.
Revenue from construction contracts is recognized based on the stage of completion of the project on the reporting date of the Statement of Financial Position.
The completion stage is measured based on the contractual cost that has been realized up to the balance sheet date compared to the total estimated construction cost of each project. When it is likely for the total contract cost to exceed the total income, then the expected loss is directly recognized in the period's results as an expense.
For the calculation of the cost realized until the end of the period, any expenses related to future activities regarding the contract are excluded and appear as a project under construction. The total cost that was realized and the profit/loss that was recognized for each contract is compared with the progressive invoices until the end of the period.
When the realized expenses plus the net profit (less the losses) that have been recognized, exceed the progressive invoices, the difference appears as a receivable from construction contract customers in the account "Customers and other receivables". When the progressive invoices exceed the realized expenses plus the net profit (less the losses) that have been recognized, the balance appears as a liability towards construction contract customers in the account "Suppliers and other liabilities".
In cases where initial estimates may change, revenue, costs and / or completion rates are revised. These revisions may lead to increases or decreases in estimated earnings or costs and are presented in the results of the period in which the reasons for the revision are disclosed by the Management.
- Sale of goods: Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods sold and services provided in the normal course of the Group's operations, net of discounts, VAT and other taxes related to sales. The Group recognizes in the income statement the sale of the goods at the moment when the benefits and risks associated with the ownership of those goods are transferred to the client.
- Provision of services: Income from the provision of services is accounted for in the period during which the services are rendered, based on the stage of completion of the service in relation to the total services to be rendered.
Revenue from electricity generation: Electricity sales are recognized on the date when the relevant risks are transferred to the buyer, namely, according to the monthly electricity production provided to the Greek network and confirmed by the Energy Exchange Group and DAPEEP (ex LAGIE) (Operators of the Electricity Market) and ADMIE (Independent Power Transmission Operator). Revenue also includes ancillary services received from ADMIE.
Revenue from cross-border trade: Revenues from the sale of electricity to the domestic and foreign markets are based on the monthly measurements of the System Operators, Energy Exchange Group (ex LAGIE) (Greece) and the managers of other countries, which are announced to the Group. These monthly measurements include the total of imported and exported quantities sold to domestic and foreign markets. For these quantities sold, the Group issues the corresponding invoices every month.
Revenue from retail electricity sales: Revenues from electricity sales in the retail market are recognized during the period in which electricity is provided to customers and is measured on a monthly basis, according to the ADMIE and HEDNO measurements for medium voltage customers and with estimates based on the historical consumption that HELLENIC ELECTRICITY DISTRIBUTION NETWORK OPERATOR S.A. (HEDNO) announces for low voltage customers. Based on these measurements provided by ADMIE and HEDNO projections containing unit consumption and in conjunction with the contractual terms, each customer receives a monthly bill per meter. For low-voltage customers, the bills are up to HEDNO to send the actual consumption of the period, and then a clearing account is issued.
Income Interest: Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis using the effective interest rate. When there is impairment of assets, their book value is reduced to their recoverable amount which is the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted using the initial real interest rate. Interest is then booked using the same interest rate calculated on the impaired (new book) value.
Dividends: Dividends are accounted for as revenue when the right to receive payment is established.
Expenses: Expenses are recognized in the results on an accrued basis. The payments made for operating leases are transferred to the results as an expense, during the time the lease is used. Interest expenses are recognized on an accrued basis.
Group company as Lessee: Leases of fixed assets with which all the risks and benefits related with ownership of an asset are transferred to the Group, regardless of whether the title of ownership of the asset is eventually transferred or not, are finance leases.
These leases are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the lower of the fair value of the asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is apportioned between the reduction of the liability and the finance charge so that a fixed interest rate on the remaining financial liability is achieved. The relevant liabilities from leases, net of financial expenses, are reported as liabilities. The part of the financial expense that relates to finance leases is recognized in the income statement during the term of the lease. Fixed assets acquired through finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of their useful life and the lease term.
Lease agreements where the lessor transfers the right of use of an asset for an agreed period of time, without transferring, however, the risks and rewards of ownership of the fixed asset are classified as operating leases. Payments made with respect to operating leases (net of any incentives offered by the lessor) are recognised in the income statement proportionately throughout the term of the lease.
Group Company as lessor: When fixed assets are leased through financial leasing, the present value of the lease is recognized as a receivable. The difference between the gross amount of the receivable and its present value is registered as a deferred financial income. The income from the lease is recognized in the period's results during the lease using the net investment method, which represents a constant periodic return.
Fixed assets that are leased through operating leases are included in the statements of financial position's tangible assets. They are depreciated during their expected useful life on a basis consistent with similar self-owned tangible assets. The income from the lease (net of possible incentives given to the lessees) is recognized using the constant method during the period of the lease.
The distribution of dividends to the shareholders of the parent company is recognized as a liability in the consolidated financial statements at the date on which the distribution is approved by the General Meeting of the shareholders.
Pro forma figures (EBITDA, EBITDA margin, free cash flow, net debt) are not governed by the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Thus, these figures are calculated and presented by the Group in a way that provides a more fair view of the financial performance of its Business Sectors. The Group defines "Group EBITDA" as the Operating Earnings before any interest income and expenses, investment results, depreciation, amortization and before the effects of any special factors. "Group EBITDA" is an important indicator used by Mytilineos Group to manage the Group's operating activities and to measure the performance of the individual segments.
The special factors that affect the Group's net profit / (losses) and EBITDA are the following: a)The Group's share in the EBITDA of associates when these are active in one of its reported Business Segments.
b)The Group's share on the profit from the construction of fixed assets on account of subsidiaries and associates when these are active in one of its reported Business Segments.
It is noted that the Group financial statements, prepared according to IAS 1 and IAS 28, include:
The Group's profit realized in connection with the construction of fixed assets on account of subsidiaries and associates, when these are active in one of its reported Business Segments. Such profits are deducted from the Group's equity and fixed assets and released in the Group accounts over the same period as depreciation is charged. Consequently, for the calculation of EBITDA (operational results before depreciation), the Group does not eliminate the profit from the construction of fixed assets as its recovery through their use will effect only the profit after depreciation.
The Group states that the calculation of "Group EBITDA" may differ from the calculation method used by other companies/groups. However, "Group EBITDA" is calculated with consistency in each financial reporting period and any other financial analysis presented by the Group. Specifically financial results contain interest income/expense, while investment results contain gains/loss of financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, share of results in associates companies and gains/losses from the disposal of financial assets (such as subsidiaries and associates).
CO2 emissions are recognized according to the net liability approach through which, the Group recognizes liabilities from CO2 emissions when the actual emissions exceed the distributed emission rights from E.U. The liability is measured at fair value to the extent that the Group has the obligation of covering the deficit through the market. Emission rights acquired over the required quantities for covering the deficit are recognized as intangible assets at cost.
The Group uses Derivative financial instruments such as Commodity Futures and Currency Forwards in order to mitigate the risk related to its business activities along with the risk related to the funding of such activities.
At inception of the hedging transaction, the Group validates the hedging relationship between the underlying and the hedging instrument as far as its risk management strategy is concerned. The Group also verifies the hedging efficiency from the beginning of the hedging relationship and on a continuing basis.
All derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value as at the date of settlement and are valued on a mark to - market basis on each balance sheet date. The result of this valuation is recognized as an asset when positive and as a liability when negative.
When a derivative financial instrument is no longer regarded as hedging instrument any difference in its fair value is recognized in profit and loss.
Fair value hedging is regarded when hedging the exposure in the fluctuations of the fair value of a recognized asset, liability, contingent liability or part of them that could have a negative impact on results.
When hedging accounting, concerning fair value hedge, is followed then any profit or loss from revaluation is recognized in profit and loss. For non-derivative hedging instruments used to hedge foreign currency risk, only the foreign currency item in its book value will be recognized in profit or loss - the entire instrument needs to be re-measured. The gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk should be recognized directly in the income statement to offset the change in the carrying amount of the hedging instrument. This applies to items recognized at cost and available-for-sale financial assets. Any compensation ineffectiveness is recognized directly in the income statement.
The Group enters into Cash Flow Hedging transactions in order to cover the risks that cause fluctuations in its cash flows and arise either from an asset or a liability or a forecasted transaction and the change will affect the results. Examples of Group cash flow hedges include future foreign currency transactions subject to exchange rate changes as well as future sales of aluminum subject to changes in selling prices. Changes in the carrying amount of the effective part of the hedging instrument are recognized in Equity as "Reserve" while the ineffective portion is recognized in the Income Statement. The amounts accrued in equity are transferred to the income statement in the periods in which the hedged items are recognized in the income statement as in a prospective sale. When a hedging instrument has expired, sold, settled or does not qualify for hedging accounting all accumulated profit or loss recognized in Equity, stays in Equity until the final settlement of the underlying. If the underlying is not expected to be settled then any profit or loss recognized in Equity is transferred to profit and loss account.
Hedging of a foreign investment is regarded for accounting purposes in a way similar to cash flow hedging.
The effective part of the hedging result is recognized directly in Equity while any ineffective part is recognized in profit and loss. Accumulated profit or loss recognized in Equity is transferred in profit and loss account at the time of disposal of the investment.
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to the shareholders of the parent with the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each accounting period, excluding the average of ordinary shares acquired as treasury shares.
The weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the accounting period and for all the periods presented is adjusted for events that have altered the number of ordinary shares in circulation without a corresponding change in resources.
MYTILINEOS Group is active in three main operating business segments: Metallurgy and Mining, EPC & Infrastructure and Power & Gas. In identifying its operating segments, management generally follows the Group's service lines, which represent the main products and services provided by the Group. Each of these operating segments is managed separately as each of these service lines requires different technologies and other resources as well as marketing approaches. The Group's activities, which do not meet the criteria and the quantitative thresholds of IFRS 8, in order to form a reportable operating segment, are aggregated and reported under the category "Others".
The Group has applied IFRS 5 "Non Current Assets Available for Sale & Discontinued Operations" and present separately the results of the discontinued operations of the subsidiary company SOMETRA S.A.

The Group performs annually impairment tests for goodwill.
The recoverable amount of the recognized goodwill, related with the separate CGU's, was assessed using value in use and calculated using the DCF method. The "value in use" was determined based on management's assumptions, which management deems reasonable and are based on estimates from international rating agencies on Financial Statement's issue date. No need for impairment arose from impairment tests.
The recoverable amount of each CGU is determined according to the calculation of the value in use. The calculations for the CGU's recoverable amount were based on the present value of the expected future cash flows. The basic estimates the Group uses to determine the value in use divide in:
o Capacity rate and total demand of energy system for the energy sector
The WACC method reflects the discount rate of future cash flows for each CGU, according to which the cost of equity and the cost of long-term debt and any grants are weighted, in order to calculate the cost of capital of the company. Since all cash flows of the business plans are denominated in euro, the yield of ten-year German government bond was used as the risk-free rate. Assumptions of independent sources were taken into account for the calculation of the risk premium.
Betas are evaluated annually based on published market data. The Company's WACC was estimated at 7.25%.
Apart from the above considerations concerning the determination of the value in use of CGUs, no other changes that may affect the rest of the assumptions have come to the Management's attention.
The Group analyzed the sensitivity of the recoverable amounts per CGU through change in a percentage point of 0.5% in the discount rate. From the relevant analysis there is no amount of impairment.

All derivatives open positions have been marked to market. Fair values of the "interest rate swaps", are confirmed by the financial institutions that the Group has as counterparties.
The Group manages the exposure to currency risk through the use of currency forwards and options and thus by "locking" at exchange rates that provide sufficient cash flows and profit margins. Furthermore, the Group manages the exposure to commodity risk through the use of: a) commodity futures that hedge the risk from the change at fair value of commodities and b) commodity swaps that hedge fluctuations in cash flows from the volatility in aluminum prices.

During 2019, the Group paid dividends of € 52 mio to its equity shareholders.
Also during 2019, the directors proposed the payment of a dividend of € 0.3600 per share. As the distribution of dividends requires approval at the shareholders' meeting, no liability in this respect is recognised in the 2019 consolidated financial statements. No income tax consequences are expected to arise as a result of this transaction at the level of Illustrative Corporation.

The Group, since 2009, applies IFRS 5 "Non-current assets held for sale & discontinued operations", and presents separately the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary company SOMETRA S.A., following the suspension of the production activity of the Zinc-Lead production plant in Romania, and presents also the amounts recognized in the income statement separately from continuing operations. Given the global economic recession, there were no feasible scenarios for the alternative utilization of the aforementioned financial assets.
Consequently, from 2011 and on, by applying par. 13 of IFRS 5 "Non-current assets Held for Sale", the Zinc-Lead production ceases to be an asset held for sale and is considered as an asset to be abandoned. The assets of the disposal group to be abandoned are presented within the continuing operations while the results as discontinued operations.
In December 2015, SOMETRA S.A., contributed the Zinc-Lead activity, through a spin – off process, to its newly established subsidiary Reycom Recycling S.A. (REYCOM). The said spin - off is part of the "Mytilineos Group" restructuring process, regarding the Zinc-Lead discontinued operation, targeting on the production of Zn & Pb oxides through the development of a recycling operation of metallurgical residues.
Following the analysis of the profit and loss of the discontinued operations:

*The amount of € 420 mio concerning the backlog of Deir Azzur project is included in the above table. For the aforementioned project the Group has already announced the pause of the construction on site.
The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk, cash flow risk and fair value interest-rate risk. The Group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of commodity and financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance. The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge the exposure to certain financial risks.
Risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (Group Treasury) under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Group Treasury operates as a cost and service centre and provides services to all business units within the Group, co-ordinates access to both domestic and international financial markets and manages the financial risks relating to the Group's operations. This includes identifying, evaluating and if necessary, hedging financial risks in close co-operation with the various business units within the Group.
The Group is activated in a global level and consequently is exposed to foreign exchange risk emanating mainly from the US dollar. This kind of risk mainly results from commercial transactions in foreign currency as well as net investments in foreign entities. For managing this type of risk, the Group Treasury Department enters into derivative or non derivative financial instruments with financial institutions on behalf and in the name of group companies. In Group level these financial instruments are characterized as exchange rate risk hedges for certain assets, liabilities or foreseen commercial transactions.
The Group's earnings are exposed to movements in the prices of the commodities it produces, which are determined by the international markets and the global demand and supply.
The Group is price risk from fluctuations in the prices of variables that determine either the sales and/or the cost of sales of the group entities (i.e. products' prices (LME), raw materials, other cost elements etc.). The Group's activities expose it to the fluctuations of the prices of Aluminium (AL), Zinc (Zn), Lead (Pb) as well as to Fuel Oil as a production cost.
Commodity price risk can be reduced through the negotiation of long term contracts or through the use of financial derivatives.
Group's interest bearing assets comprises only of cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, the Group maintains its total bank debt in products of floating interest rate. In respect of its exposure to floating interest payments, the Group evaluates the respective risks and where deemed necessary considers the use of appropriate interest rate derivatives. The policy of the Group is to minimize interest rate cash flow risk exposures on long-term financing.

The Group's exposure in price risk and therefore sensitivity may vary according to the transaction volume and the price level. However, the above sensitivity analysis is representative for the Group exposure in 2019 and 2018.
The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk with any single counter party. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to wholesale customers.
Concerning trade accounts receivables, the Group is not exposed to significant credit risks as they mainly consist of a large, widespread customer base. However, the atypical conditions that dominate the Greek market and several other markets in Europe are forcing the Group to constantly monitor its business claims and also to adopt policies and practices to ensure that such claims are collected. By way of example, such policies and practices include insuring credits where possible; pre-collection of the value of product sold to a considerable degree; safeguarding claims by collateral loans on customer reserves; and receiving letters of guarantee.
To minimize credit risk on cash reserves and cash equivalents; in financial derivate contracts; as well as other short term financial products, the Group specifies certain limits to its exposure on each individual financial institution and only engages in transactions with creditworthy financial institutions of high credit rating.

Liquidity risk is related with the Group's need for the sufficient financing of its operations and development. The relevant liquidity requirements are the subject of management through the meticulous monitoring of debts of long term financial liabilities and also of payments made on a daily basis.
The Group ensures that there is sufficient available credit facilities to be able to cover its short-term business needs, after the calculation of cash flows arising from the operation as well as cash and cash equivalents which are held. The funds for long-term liquidity needs ensured by a sufficient amount of loanable funds and the ability to sell long-term financial assets.

It must be noted that the above table does not include liabilities to clients from the performance of construction projects, as the maturity of such values cannot be assessed.
Moreover, cash-advances from customers, construction contacts liabilities as well as the provisions and accrued expenses are not included.
The following table presents financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the statement of financial position in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. This hierarchy groups financial assets and liabilities into three levels based on the significance of inputs used in measuring the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
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 (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The level within which the financial asset or liability is classified is determined based on the lowest level of significant input to the fair value measurement.
The Group's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the statement of financial position are grouped into the fair value hierarchy for 31/12/2019 and 31/12/2018 as follows:

Within FY 2019, the following tax audit orders were issued by the Independent Authority for Public Revenue. Tax audit order for fiscal years 2013-2017 for Mytilineos S.A. as well as for METKA S.A for fiscal years 2013-2014 and for Aluminum of Greece S.A. regarding fiscal year 2016.
The tax audit of Mytilineos S.A. for fiscal years 2013-2014 has been finalized and the taxes and duties that were imposed, amount to €791 k., whereas in the case of its ex subsidiaries, which were absorbed in 2017, the amount of taxes and duties sums up to €150 k. and €704 k. respectively.
Additionally to the above, the tax audit of Sometra S.A. (Romania) was finalized within 2019, regarding fiscal years 2013-2018, with the total amount of taxes and duties imposed, to have reached €595 k. As regards other companies of the Group and to our knowledge up to today, there are no changes in relation to the Note for unaudited years as of 30.06.2019
On 17.12.2014, Independent Power Transmission Operator S.A. (IPTO or ADMIE) sent briefing notes to MYTILINEOS (henceforth the "Company") as universal successor of ALUMINIUM OF GREECE INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL SOCIETE ANONYME due to merger, requesting the issuance of a credit invoice for the amount of €17.4m relating to the Excise Tax (ET) on Gas consumed at the Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Plant for the period of 28/11/2012 until 31/10/2013 (henceforth the "Reference Period"). Said ET was invoiced to ADMIE during the aforementioned period, pursuant to its related debit notes.
In relation to the above, we note the following:
The CHP station is a dispatchable cogeneration unit, part of which qualifies as highly efficient (High-Efficiency Combined Heat and Power/ HE-CHP) under the Code's provisions, but also under the specific operational terms which were approved by way of RAE's Decision No. 700/2012 (as amended by Decision 341/2013 and RAE 569/2016, the petition for the annulment of which is pending before the administrative courts).
According to Article 197(2) of Law 4001/2011, from 1/9/2011 onwards, all HE-CHP stations, regardless of their installed capacity, gain priority for the allocation of their loads. In particular, in accordance with Article 197(3) of the above Law, HE-CHP stations with an installed capacity over 35MW are to be compensated with the tariff which derives from the table displayed in Law 3468/2006, plus the Natural Gas Clause Coefficient (CC), which is calculated using the following formula: CC = 1+(AGP-26)/(100 x nel)
Where:
• AGP: the monthly mean average unitary selling price of natural gas to NG users in Greece who are also electricity customers, in €/MWh using the gross calorific value (GCV). This value is determined by the Ministry of Environment, Energy and Climate Change's Petroleum Policy Directorate and is communicated to Hellenic Transmission System Operator S.A. (HTSO or DESMIE) on a monthly basis.
• nel: the electrical efficiency of the provision for High-Efficiency CHP based on the gross calorific value (GCV) of natural gas, which is defined in accordance with the station's technical information, as reported by the relevant Operator.
The CC value cannot be lower than one (1) and is determined on a case-by-case basis by way of a decision made by the Minister of Environment, Energy and Climate Change (henceforth the "Ministerial Decision") following consultation by RAE. RAE's opinion must also take the plant's installed capacity into account, in a way so that the determined value generally decreases as the capacity increases.
Moreover, the AGP is displayed in €/MWh and includes the ET, as specified in the letter sent by the Ministry of Environment, Energy and Climate Change's Petroleum Policy Directorate on 2/11/2011. Correspondingly, this is explicitly stipulated in L. 4254/2014 (ΙΓ.3) «AGP: the monthly average unitary price of Natural Gas in €/MWh using the Gross Calorific Value (GCV), which includes the selling price with the transfer cost and the Excise Tax (ET) in which it is added the average CO2 cost, corresponding to power production»
The High-Efficiency CHP station owned by the Company has an installed capacity of 334MW, of which 134.6MW has priority in entering the system (HE-CHP) in accordance with the aforementioned decisions which approved the Specific
Operational Terms. From 1/9/2011 until 31/10/2013 (which ADMIE set as the final date for settling the ET), the CC value, as defined above, had not been established because the relevant decision had not been issued by the Minister of Environment, Energy and Climate Change, despite the fact that the Regulatory Authority for Energy had issued two relevant opinions in accordance with the provisions of Article 197(2) of Law 4001/2011 (RAE 3/2012 and RAE 5/2013). Consequently, the Subsidiary's HE-CHP neither issued invoices nor received a tariff in accordance with the provisions of Law 4001/2011. Instead, following the signing of a Private Agreement between the Company and the Operator of Electricity Market (LAGIE) on 26.4.2013, HE-CHP issued temporary invoices, for the entire aforementioned period, at the minimum price which could have resulted from the application of the mathematical formula established by Law 4001/2011 (if the CC value was set at the unit price, i.e., if the AGP amounted to 26€/MWh). According to the Private Agreement, the final settlement was to take place following the establishment of the CC by way of the issuance of the relevant Ministerial Decision, so that dispatched HE-CHP energy would be compensated in accordance with the provisions of the "Supplementary Agreement for Transactions relating to Electricity from the Dispatchable HighEfficiency CHP Station" (Government Gazette B' 3108/23.11.2012) which was concluded between the Company and LAGIE on 28.11.2012.
The aforementioned provisions of Law 4001/2011, in conjunction with the provisions specified in the letter sent by the Ministry of Environment, Energy and Climate Change's Petroleum Policy Directorate, as well as the provisions of both the Company's Private Agreement with LAGIE and the "Supplementary Agreement for Transactions relating to Electricity from the Dispatchable High-Efficiency CHP Station" between the two parties, require that the Natural Gas ET is recovered to the extent that the natural gas was consumed in generating electricity. Therefore, the Company also recognized the part of the Natural Gas ET which corresponded to consumptions made in generating useful heat (steam for the Alumina production process) as a liability (deducted from ADMIE's receivables balance), the total value of which amounted to €9.1m.
Regarding the remaining balance of ADMIE's relevant briefing note, which amounts to €8.3m and relates to the Natural Gas ET which corresponded to consumptions for electricity generation (HE- CHP), it is noted that this does not constitute a liability for the Company. Specifically, in accordance with IAS 37, "a liability is a present obligation of the entity arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow from the entity of resources embodying economic benefits". Based on the above and given that the Company has not received a final compensatory price for the Period (by way of the CC, see above), while, based on the Private Agreement between the Company and LAGIE, the final settlement will take place following the issuance of the relevant Ministerial Decision regarding the establishment of the CC (which has not been issued), the Company believes that it has no commitment which would legally constitute an obligation to return the amount of €8.3m. A relevant liability may arise once the aforementioned Ministerial Decision regarding the establishment of the CC is issued, in which case the Company estimates that the final compensation that it will receive for electricity dispatched to the system as High-Efficiency CHP will exceed the amount of €8.3m. Therefore, it is not expected that a loss will result for the Company .
Finally, in respect of the final settlement of the CHP pricing for 2013 it is noted that, on the 4th of June 2015 the Company, sent a letter to the Operator of the Electricity Market (LAGHE) asking the convene of the Dispute Settlement Committee as provided in the article 16 p. 2 of the "Supplementary Agreement for Transactions relating to Electricity from the Dispatchable High-Efficiency CHP Station" signed between the parties. The dispute in consideration concerns
the imposition of a 10% special tax plus an extra 10% of one-off discount on tariffs, both regarding the financial year 2013.
Following negotiations, the parties have reached a mutually acceptable draft arbitration agreement, so as to jointly apply for the resolution of the dispute by the special arbitration of the Regulatory Authority for Energy (RAE), in accordance with article 37 of L.4001/2011. At 07.02.2018 the two parties signed an agreement to continue the dispute with the help of the arbitration of the Regulatory Authority for Energy. The Arbitration Procedure goes forward and the final ruling is expected within the forthcoming months, according to the specifications of the law. The meeting has been determined to take place on 19.03.2020 according to the minutes No 4/25.02.2020 of the Arbitration Court.
According to IAS 37.14: A provision shall be recognised when:
(a) an entity has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event;
(b) it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and
(c) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
If these conditions are not met, no provision shall be recognised.
No provision has been made for this matter, since according to the relevant opinions of the Company's legal advisers and the management of the Company: (a) the existence of a commitment has not yet been finalized; and (b) there is no probability that there will be an outflow of financial resources.
According to the information provided in previous Financial Statements, the General Court of the European Union has turned down the Company's appeal with the decision dated 13.03.2018. The Company had initiated institute proceedings against the above stated decision, before the competent courts of European Union. The European Court issued a final decision on the matter and judged that the amount of 17.4 € mio plus any interest, constituted illegal state aid. There is no appeal against such judgement. It is noted that the Company has recognized the amount of 17.4 € mio plus 4.2 € mio of interest expenses in the profit and loss statement of 2017.
DEPA claim against the Company (as universal successor of ALUMINIUM OF GREECE INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL SOCIETE ANONYME and Protergia Thermoilektriki Agiou Nikolaou Power Generation and Supply S.A. due to merger) and Korinthos Power S.A.
DEPA S.A. demands regarding charges that arose from the retrospective revision of the contract price due to the revision of the prices charged by DEPA's supplier, the Turkish company "BOTAS PETROLEUM PIPELINE CORPORATION" the amount of €10,2 Mio (plus VAT), plus interest, by the Company (as universal successor of ALUMINIUM OF GREECE INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL SOCIETE ANONYME).
The Company contested the existence of the said amount and today, is under arbitration with DEPA for resolving the abovementioned dispute. Within the frame of the arbitration procedure, arbitrators and the umpire have been nominated and the arbitration procedure has been initiated.
Based on the arbitration decisions issued, within the frame of similar disputes of the Company, (as universal successor of Protergia Agios Nikolaos Power Societe Anonyme of Generation and Supply of Electricity) and Korinthos Power S.A. with DEPA as well as the additional arguments of the specific case, it is estimated the reduction of DEPA's claims.
There are other potential third party claims of € 5.6 mio against the Company for which no provision has been made.
According to IAS 37.14: A provision shall be recognised when:
(a) an entity has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event;
(b) it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and
(c) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
If these conditions are not met, no provision shall be recognised.
No provision has been made for this matter, since according to the relevant opinions of the Company's legal advisers and the management of the Company: (a) the existence of a commitment has not yet been finalized; and (b) there is no probability that there will be an outflow of financial resources.
Moreover, there are claims of the Company against third parties, which totally amount to € 10.6 mio.
Out of the above mentioned parent company guarantees in note 3.35, there are guarantees amount of 463.3 mio Group guarantees and 422.3 mio parent company guarantees on behalf of customers and suppliers.
• On 15.01.2020, the subsidiary of MYTILINEOS, ZEOLOGIC S.A. announced the signing of an agreement with FAIRDEAL MARINE SERVICES FZE, for the construction of the first treatment plant of oily sludge as well as of sludge arising from flue gas treatment systems. This plant will be installed at the FAIRDEAL Group premises in Fujairah of the United Arab Emirates and it is the first environmental project of ZEOLOGIC S.A. in the Middle East. Τhe facility's design will be based on the internationally patented treatment method (Geochemical Active Clay Sedimentation - GACS) for liquid and solid waste treatment, with exclusive rights of use held by ZEOLOGIC. Based on the GACS method, the waste becomes 'Non Hazardous' after its treatment and thus the treated waste can be safely disposed.
ZEOLOGIC and FAIRDEAL Group envisage the installation of more plants using this technology in the Persian Gulf region, addressing the recognized environmental problems of the region and the need to install state of the art infrastructure to support Green Shipping.
• On 03.02.2020, MYTILINEOS S.A. decisively contributed to the energy upgrading of public areas in the municipalities and undertook the street lighting project in Volos Municipality in the context of a joint venture with its subsidiary ELEMKA. During the project, the conventional street lights shall be replaced; the existing street lights, despite their short life cycle and erratic luminosity, are nevertheless highly energy consuming. The new framework to be used will adopt the most state-of-the-art solutions in the lighting technologies and will offer, besides a more regulated and high quality light, an improved visible luminous efficacy and a better ambiance in the urban environment; it will additionally save up to 55% of the electricity supply, reducing thus the cost and the Municipality's energy footprint.
The joint venture MYTILINEOS-ELEMKA was chosen by an electronic international tender declared by Volos Municipality, budgeted at 14,297,339.64€ plus VAT. The scope of the contract covers the supply, installation and 12-year maintenance (not including the 12 months for installation) and in particular:
In addition to the above, the following changes have also been approved:
The above changes will be effective from Monday, February 10, 2020.
• On 13.02.2020, MYTILINEOS S.A. signed an agreement with Motor Oil (Hellas) SA for the sale of a group of operational solar power parks totalling 47MW, through its newly designated Business Unit, International Renewable and Storage Development (RSD) and more specifically, through the sale of certain participations of its subsidiary METKA EGN LTD. The solar parks are located within Northern and Central Greece and the total consideration was €45.8m.
The solar parks became operational in the second half of 2019 and have a secured revenue stream via a 20 year Power Purchase Agreement ("PPA") through the Greek Renewable Energy operator (DAPEEP). The RSD business unit of MYTILINEOS already has internally approved solar power development investments projects of approximately 540MW, in Australia, Cyprus, Mexico, South Korea, Spain and the UK, with a goal of developing and transferring at least 1,500MW of solar power plant and storage development projects over the next five years.
The transaction is part of the broader strategy of the solar development business model ("Build-Operate-Transfer ("BOT") being rolled out through the newly created RSD business unit of MYTILINEOS. The business model leverages the global construction and development expertise of MYTILINEOS' subsidiary, METKA-EGN, having completed more than 1.2 gigawatt of solar power plants and 200 megawatts of energy storage projects in more than five continents.
Mytilineos, as a responsible social partner and enterprise is greatly concerned about the situation, the rapid spread of the virus and its effect on its operations but also on the economy and the broader society. At the present time, the safety of its employees is the ultimate priority. To that end, Mytilineos has implemented the following initiatives through a special task force, (the "Task Force") that reports to senior management, monitoring all developments and assessing potential impacts of Covid-19.
The Task Force, adhering to all protocols from the WHO and other relevant authorities, has already put in place a business continuity plan which is currently in full implementation. Ιt has established and maintains clear internal and external protocols for regular and emergency communication with employees and other key stakeholders.
Business travel has been limited and remote-work schemes are in place, wherever possible. Additional resource planning for staff who perform business-critical functions has also been put forth to minimize the risks of any operational disruption.
Τhe Company has taken the following additional actions:
While we are not in a position to quantify or assess the full level of impact, potential risk factors that could affect our business are the following:
In addition to the ongoing operational risk management due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we have placed a heightened level of oversight toward protection of our healthy financial standing. Currently, our strong balance sheet and low leverage of [1.35x] net debt/EBITDA and a total liquidity that exceeds 1bn € with no material maturities until mid-2022, is an important mitigant to manage the current uncertainty. In light of these developments and given the uncertainties of the situation, we are undergoing a reassessment process for our Capex plan which could potentially lead us to defer or even cancel projects depending on the developments of the current situation.
Any potential impact to our results will depend on, to a large extent, ongoing developments, almost all of which are beyond our control. The Greek authorities' decision to implement quarantines and other emergency public health measures, though temporary in nature, may continue and increase depending on developments in the virus' outbreak.
As a result, because of the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 outbreak, the financial impact related to the outbreak and response to the coronavirus cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

The software has a security key on the basis of which, no registration is allowed without the above classification.
This way, documents and transaction entries that concern only one of the Company's business areas or indicate a discrete amount per business area, update the separate accounts of every Business Area (a) directly. The rest of the documents and transactions are allocated to each business area, with the use of an allocation key.
Thereafter, the Company prepares the annual profit and loss statements of each financial year per business area.
The entries updating the Assets and Liabilities Accounts, such as fixed assets, reserves, customers, other receivables, suppliers, liabilities and loans are allocated based on the business area to which they relate.
At the end of each financial year, the total Equity is allocated based on the difference between Assets and Liabilities of each business area, which is designated as "capital allocation to business units".
Cash and cash equivalents, financial assets, tax receivables and liabilities, provisions and deferred taxes, are allocated based on the aforementioned "capital allocation to business units".
The annual separate Profit and Loss Accounts for each activity include the Company's transactions with third parties. Specifically, each business area includes the following:
This business area includes Income, Expenses, Assets and Liabilities, which are derived solely from the business area of power plants.
Specifically,
This activity includes Income, Expenses, Assets and Liabilities, which are derived from the trading and retail of electricity. Specifically,
