Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
Naftex Petrol EOOD ('the Company') is a company concerned with wholesale trade and storage of petroleum products, which has 34 own fuel storage facilities located throughout the country. The Company operates 12 fuel storage facilities (11 of its own and one owned by Petrol AD) for distribution of petroleum products, 2 of the facilities are leased out and the remaining facilities belong to the group of the so-called "reserve" storage facilities.
The Company is a licensed warehouse holder under the Excise Duties and Tax Warehouses Act (EDTWA) and as of December 31, 2009 holds licenses for 10 fuel storage facilities, which provide opportunity for temporary suspension of excise duty taxation, in case certain conditions are observed. In addition, at the end of 2009 the Company holds licenses under the Mandatory Stocks of Crude Oil and Petroleum Products Act (MSCOPPA) for tanks with total capacity of 155,473 m3, situated in 7 of the operating fuel storage facilities, allowing storage of fuels under the same law.
The offered fuels are in compliance with the EU standards, in particular Standard EN 590 on diesel fuel and EN 228 on gasoline. The uncompromising quality is guaranteed by 4 laboratories, where with the help of modern technologies, strict control and quality analysis of fuel and petroleum products are carried out.
At the end of 2009, in pursuance of the investment program, the reconstruction and modernization of fuel storage facility (FSF) Plovdiv was completed, including the construction of a new modern installation for bottom and top loading of tanker trucks, a process control center, an installation for automated dosage of additives and blending of fuels with biodiesel and bioethanol, reconstruction of the pumping station, installation of new pipelines, etc. After reconstruction Plovdiv fuel storage facility became one of the facilities, fitted with the most modern equipment for storage and distribution of petroleum products on the territory of the country.
In 2009 hydrocarbon vapour recovery units (VRU) were fitted at FSF Stara Zagora, Kaspichan and Varna. It is expected VRU to be put into operation at FSF Burgas in 2010. Scheduled tanks repairs at FSF Kaspichan, Pleven and Ruse were carried out whereby 50,000 m3 of tank capacity were prepared for fuel storage under the MSCOPPA requirements. At the beginning of 2010, internal floating roofs were fitted on the repaired gasoline tanks in compliance with the Ordinance No 16 on the control of volatile organic compound emissions resulting from the storage, loading and unloading, and transportation of gasoline. Surveillance systems were mounted in most operating facilities aimed at strengthening the control.

Naftex Petrol EOOD is ISO 9001:2000 certified.
Organizational and management structure of the Company are shown on the following diagram:
Fuel market in Bulgaria was marked by a steady consumption growth during the last few years. Economic crisis and subsequent recession are reasons for the anticipated slight decrease in the consumption for $2009^9$ and $2010$ . In mid and long-term plan, however, the consumption is expected to resume its rising trend. The projected average annual growth rate for the next ten years is within 2%. One of the major leading factors is the potential growth of the motor car fleet in the country and entire South-East Europe, since in this region the number of cars per one thousand people is twice less than the number in Western European countries.
With relation to product mix, during the last couple of years the fuel market in Bulgaria witnessed a shift of consumption from all types of gasoline to diesel oil and LPG. The extended diesel oil consumption is accounted for by modern diesel-engines entering the market, as well as the increasing use of diesel in transport industry. Branded fuels and methane came into the market. Due to their better quality, these fuels can offer acceleration of automobile power, expense reduction, increased engine life, etc.
Being dependent on the crude oil and petroleum products quotations on the international markets, fuel prices are characterized by high dynamics and volatility. After 2008, which was marked with a significant increase of the prices in the first eight months and with a dramatic slump in the last months, in 2009 the prices turned back to their upward trend, but kept levels lower than the levels from the previous year. Another factor, influencing significantly both the prices and the sector's margins is the increase of the excise rates in the connection with the process of synchronization to the European legislation after the country's accession to EU. The latest increase of this kind was undertaken in 2008.
The main companies operating on the wholesale market in Bulgaria are Naftex Petrol EOOD, Rompetrol Bulgaria AD, OMV Bulgaria EOOD and LUKoil Bulgaria EOOD - the exclusive distributor of the products of Lukoil Neftochim Burgas AD. At present, the domestic market is to a large extent still bound to the production of the latter, as the wholesale prices are typically linked to the pricing of the producer. The share of realized imported fuels is not yet significant, but it shows a trend for increase, as during the last years it has reached almost 30%.
In view of the Bulgaria's accession to EU, as from January 1, 2007 the requirements on the quality of the offered petroleum products and the ecological standards have been considerably heightened. According to the Ordinance on Requirements for the Liquid Fuel Quality, the Conditions, the Procedure and the Method of Control over Liquid Fuels as from January 1, 2009 the diesel motor fuel and the motor gasoline must be with a maximum sulphur content of 10 mg/kg (10 ppm). Additional requirements are imposed under the Renewable and Alternative Energy Sources and Biofuel Act, as from 1 March, 2010 blending of the liquid fuels of crude oil origin consumed in the transportation sector with biofuel must commence stage by stage. In accordance with the last amendments in the EDTWA every licensed storage holder should by its own and at its expenses to provide an Internet access for the Customs authorities to its automated accounting system, aiming to provide control in real time over the storaged excise goods and to ensure compliance of the regime for deferred payment of excise.
Regulations regarding environmental protection, requiring additional capital investments, as well as the requirements of the MSCOPPA for keeping higher stock level, are a serious barrier against entering of new participants on the wholesale market.
<sup>9 At the time of issuance of this report there is no official statistics about fuel consumption in Bulgaria.
The Company's revenue for 2009 was basically formed by the following lines of business:
The revenue of Naftex Petrol EOOD is generated from sales of goods and rendering of services. In 2009 the Company's revenue is at the amount of BGN 884,400 thousand and remained at the levels of the previous year as slightly decreased by 0.8%. The major part of the sales revenue is formed by sales of goods (99%). In 2009 it is at the amount of BGN 875,555 thousand, as compared to BGN 887,719 thousand in 2008. The revenue of sales of goods was formed almost entirely (99%) from the sales of fuels.
In 2009 the revenue from sales of fuels reached levels closed to the levels of the previous year, amounted to BGN 874,802 thousand, compared to BGN 886,074 in 2008. The slightly decline of 1% thousand is due to the decrease in the average prices of fuels.
Structure of sold fuel by types is presented in the following table:
| Fuel type | measurement unit | 2009 | 2008 | 2007 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Light fuel | litres thousand | 678,444 | 502.823 | 422,187 |
| Aviation fuel | tonnes | 3,491 | 26,811 | 37.693 |
| Heavy fuel | tonnes | 21,230 | 37.535 | 9.014 |
| LPG | tonnes | $\blacksquare$ | 1.661 | 106 |
Sales structure
In 2009 the volumes of light fuels sold continued their upward trend from the previous years, as the increase in 2009 is 35% compared to 2008. The drop in the sales of aviation fuel (jet) and heavy fuels is a result of the termination of both the aircraft refuelling and vessels bunkering activities. In 2009 Naftex Petrol EOOD suspended the sales of LPG.
Despite the considerable growth in the volume of sales, the sales revenue of light fuels grew by 6% only. Main reason was the decrease in the average selling price of gasoline and diesel fuel by 13% and 26%, respectively in 2009 compared to 2008. The drop is due to the lower average prices on the international markets, on the first place and on the second place, to the lower selling prices of the producer Lukoil Neftochim Burgas AD, by which the sector pricing is traditionally bound.
In 2009 65% of the light fuel revenue is generated from the sale of diesel fuel. The rest 35% are distributed between the sales of gasoline and gas oil in proportion of 93% to 7%.
Until June 2009 the main Company's fuels supplier has been LUKoil Bulgaria EOOD. With the contract expiration, Naftex Petrol EOOD changed its logistic scheme and the supplies are provided predominantly by import under contracts with suppliers from Romania, Greece, Turkey and Israel. Import is carried out through Varna and Burgas Ports.
The imported quantities in metric tonnes by types of fuel in 2009 and 2008 are presented in the table below.
| 2009 | 2008 | |
|---|---|---|
| Light fuel | 211,072 | 77,900 |
| Aviation fuel | $\overline{\phantom{0}}$ | 24,025 |
| Heavy fuel | $\blacksquare$ | 15,966 |
| Total import | 211,072 | 117,891 |
Diesel fuel has the largest relative share (64%) of the total imported light fuels in 2009, followed by gasoline with 33% and industrial gas oil with 3%. Due to termination of the aircraft and vessels refueling activities, the Company did not import aviation fuel and heavy fuel in 2009.
Bulk and packaged lubricants are sold directly from the fuel storage facilities as well as from petrol stations of Petrol AD in the proportion 72% to 28% for the current year (2008: 58% to 42%). In 2009 the revenue from sales of lubricants and other petroleum derivatives dropped by 54% compared to the previous year, mainly as a result of redirection of the supplies from the main supplier directly to the petrol stations of Petrol AD. At the same time, however, the revenue from storage and dispatch services of lubricants and packaged goods has grown by around 20%.
The upward trend in revenue is also seen in the other activities related to rendering of services. In 2009 total amount of the revenue from rendering of services increased twice, reaching BGN 8,845 thousand, compared to BGN 4.245 thousand for 2008. The growth is mainly due to the increased income from storage under MSCOPPA, as well as storage of fuels, lubricants (as it was mentioned above) and other packaged goods. The achieved growth is in compliance with the adopted strategy for the development of the storage activity as a main line of the Company's business.
The operating expenses for 2009 amount to BGN 25,925 thousand, which is a decrease of 12% compared to 2008. The main reason for the decline is the fact that in the current year the Company reported negative expenses for impairment of inventories due to reversed impairment loss as a result of increase in sale market price of fuels. The impairment loss of jet oil and heating oil in stock was recognized in 2008 due to decrease in their net fair value at the end of the year.
In 2009 material expenses decreased by 23% mainly as a result of the lower costs of heating fuel preheating at Varna fuel storage facility used for vessel bunkering, as well as the lower expenses for advertising materials, fuels and lubricants.
Although in 2009 hired services remained at the levels of 2008, their structure changed. During the year, the transportation costs increased by 53% as there was a growth in the volumes of fuels sold. On the other hand, due to termination of the aircraft refuelling activity during the year, taxes and commissions decreased significantly $-$ by BGN 1,774 thousand. As a result of the adopted optimisation strategy, the Company reports decrease in the security, advertising, insurance and other hired services expenses.
In 2009 the other expenses decreased by 3% to BGN 4,060 thousand compared to BGN 4,190 thousand for 2008. Decrease is mainly due to the reduction of the entertainment allowances, sponsorship, as well as local taxes. Investments in the internal floating roofs, hydrocarbon vapour recovery units and video surveillance systems made during the last 2 years at the fuel storage facilities, resulted in the decreased of fuel wastage and losses. In 2009 the latter decrease by 12% to BGN 2.217 thousand, compared to BGN 2.518 thousand in 2008.
Company reports an operating profit before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) at the amount of BGN 11,473 thousand.
The main ratios, describing the financial position of Naftex Petrol EOOD are presented in the Selected performance indicators section.
Company's major capital requirements consist of general working capital needs and service of indebtedness. The Company's sources of liquidity include the cash balances, the short-term and longterm borrowings and the optimization of the average inventory turnover period, receivables collection and payables payment period.
As of December 31, 2009 the Company's working capital decreased to BGN 275,870 thousand compared to BGN 477,118 thousand at December 31, 2008. Decrease is due both to the smaller amount of current assets and higher amount of the current liabilities. The decrease of BGN 152,192 thousand in the current assets is caused mainly by the fall in the fair price of the short-term financial assets held for trade. Reason for the growth of current liabilities with BGN 49,056 thousand is the increase in the payables to suppliers (by BGN 27,766 thousand), followed by the increase in related parties payables (by BGN 20,810 thousand) and the interest-bearing loans liabilities (by BGN 9,034 thousand).
Liquidity, solvency, inventory turnover period and receivables collection period are important measures of the Company's financial stability. As a result of the above mentioned decrease in the current assets paired with the increase in the current liabilities, the current liquidity ratio for 2009 reduced to 2.77 compared to 5.45 for 2008 and returned within the admissible limits.
In 2009 Company's debt grew by BGN 10,933 thousand due to the increase in the interest-bearing loans and trade loans liabilities. Debt increase paired with the assets decrease lead to a deterioration of the Debt to Assets ratio, which reached 63.27% compared to 46.97% for 2008, but remained at a close to the optimal level.
The Company's policy to ensure equal opportunities under equal other conditions, for the selection and professional career growth in professional and qualification aspects of the best workers and employees. The managers on each management level are responsible for the training and development of the personnel of the respective structural units. The Company encourages and supports the workers and employees who show interest and initiative for self-training and education. Proposals are made and the annual budget for the necessary training courses in the next year is worked out on yearly basis. The training courses conducted in 2009 amount to BGN 16 thousand and are predominantly related to the implementation of new technologies at the fuel storage facilities.
A human resources management system was introduced and currently operates in the Company. The system, being a combination of rules and procedures on the work process performance, contributes to the progress of the Company's business as clearly defines and distinguishes the responsibilities of the different management levels. The system prescribes annual appraisal of the work performance carried out by the direct manager, which includes assessment of the results, the professional competency, the work quality, the use and maintenance of the Company's resources, as well as the personal qualities.
In 2008 in compliance with the adopted strategic goals for HR management, the first stage of the project relating to the introduction of the SAP HR module was completed. The latter combines strategic characteristics of the HR management with keeping analytical personnel data.
A joint project with Petrol AD under an operational program for the improvement of the employees' productivity and adaptivity, co-financed by the European Social Fund of EU was completed in 2009. The training courses were related to the acquirement of commercial and management skills.
In 2009 the average monthly salary reached BGN 947, which was an increase of about 9.0% in comparison to 2008.
One of the main operational risks for the Company arises from the long-standing practice of using the price of the manufacturer Lukoil Neftochim Burgas AD only for the purposes fuel pricings determination. Company's management strives to cease this long-standing practice and to impose daily pricing on the local wholesale market, reflecting the actual fuel supply and demand. Linking selling prices to the international market and achieving fast turnover of the traded goods is a condition for realization of positive financial operating results.
Other market risks to which the Company is exposed to are the emerging competitors, increase in the number of fuel importing companies, fluctuations of oil prices on the international market, etc. The Company holds firm competitive positions due to the fact that it possesses one of the largest networks for distribution of petroleum products in the country consisting of strategically located fuel storage facilities and has the potential for significant investments. These advantages, as well as the recognition of Naftex Petrol EOOD as one of the largest fuel importers, are the basis for the Company's stable positions in the sector.
Financial risks which the Company is exposed to, are discussed in detail in Note 25 to the financial statements as of December 31, 2009.
The events after the date of preparation of the annual financial statements are described in Note 28.
In the next 2010 Naftex Petrol EOOD will continue to develop its activities in two main lines of business - wholesale and storage of fuels.
In wholesale, efforts will be focused on expanding Company's market presence by achieving a continuous growth in volume of sales by increasing the volume of fuels sold to existing and new customers. The goal is by providing high quality fuels and building relationships with customers based on mutual trust, Naftex Petrol EOOD to become a preferred supplier for the wholesalers and retailers operating on the territory of Bulgaria. Fuels will be provided mainly by import. Possibility for import is ensured by the strategic location of some fuel storage facilities operated by the Company (mainly Burgas and Varna fuel storage facilities), as well as good communication and established trade relationship with distinguished international suppliers.
Next, Company's business in storage of fuel will continue to be developed. A prerequisite for that development remains the undeniable competitive advantage of the Company, deriving from the large storage capacity and the legal requirements imposed by MSCOPPA.
In order to achieve the above mentioned goals, Management intends to continue investments in modernization, replacement and reconstruction of machinery and equipment located at the fuel storage facilities. Budgeted investment will result not only in adherence to the environmental requirements but also will lead to reduction of technological losses from equipment operation.
In the field of human resource management priority will remain focused on professional skills development of staff. It will be achieved through implementation of planned staff training.

Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments |
Most of the standards and interpretations stated above are not applicable to the Company's activity. Therefore, they will have no material effect on the financial statements.
Functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates and in which it primarily generates and expends cash. An entity's functional currency reflects the underlying transactions, events and conditions that are relevant to it.
The Company keeps its records and prepares its financial statements in the national currency of the Republic of Bulgaria - the Bulgarian Lev, which is adopted by the Company as its functional currency.
These financial statements are presented in thousand Bulgarian Levs.
Transactions in foreign currency are initially recorded at the official rate of exchange of the Bulgarian National Bank (BNB) as of the date of the transaction. The foreign exchange rate differences, arising upon the settlement of these monetary positions or at restatement of these positions at rates, different from those when initially recorded, are reported in profit or loss for the period in which they arise.
The monetary positions denominated in foreign currency as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 are stated in these financial statements at the closing exchange rate of BNB. The closing exchange rates of BGN against USD as of the respective reporting periods are as follows:
| December 31, 2009: | $1$ USD = BGN 1.36409 |
|---|---|
| December 31, 2008: | $1$ USD = BGN 1.38731 |
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make certain accounting estimates and reasonable assumptions that affect some of the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on the best estimate of management, taking into account historical experience and analysis of all factors of significance in the circumstances as of the date of the financial statements. The actual results could differ from those estimates, presented in these financial statements.
An associate is an enterprise over which the Company is in a position to exercise significant influence, but is neither subsidiary, nor joint venture. Significant influence is the right of participation in, but not control over, the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee.
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are initially carried at acquisition cost, including the purchase price, import duties and non-refundable taxes, as well as any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. After initial recognition, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation/amortization and impairment loss, if any (see also note 3.2).
When property, plant and equipment include significant items having various useful lives, such items are reported as separate assets.
Subsequent costs, including costs for replacement of components of property, plant and equipment are capitalized in the amount of the asset, if they satisfy the recognition principle. The carrying amount of the replaced item is derecognized in accordance with the requirements of IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment, All other subsequent costs are recognized as expenses for the period as incurred.
Depreciation and amortization are charged over the estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Depreciation and amortization is recognized in profit or loss for the current period.
The assets' estimated useful lives are as follows:
| Useful life | 2009 | 2008 |
|---|---|---|
| Administrative and trade buildings | 25 years | 25 years |
| Machinery, plant and equipment | $2-25$ years | $2-25$ years |
| Vehicles | $4-10$ years | $4-10$ years |
| Office equipment | 4-6 years | $4-6$ r years |
| Intangible assets | $2-7$ years | 2-7 years |
Depreciation of an asset begins in the month following the month in which it is available for use and ceases at the earlier of the date that the asset is classified as held for sale, in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations and the date that the asset is derecognized.
Land, assets under construction and fully depreciated assets are not depreciated.
As of the end of the reporting period, the Company's management estimates if there are indications for impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit, to which the asset belongs.
The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset's fair value less costs to sell the asset and its value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (cash generating unit) in prior vears. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Inventories are stated at lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost comprises purchase price, transportation, customs duties and other similar costs. Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs to be incurred in selling.
Upon consumption, the cost of inventories is calculated using the following methods:

Financial statements as of December 31, 2009 This document is a translation of the original Bulgarian text, in case of divergence the Bulgarian original shall prevail.
A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to both a financial asset of one enterprise and a financial liability or equity instrument of another enterprise.
Financial assets/liabilities are recognized in the statement of financial position only when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are removed from the statement of financial position after the contractual rights for receiving cash flows expired or the asset is transferred and the transfer meets the derecognition requirements under IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, Financial liability is removed from the statement of financial position when, and only when, it is extinguished $-$ that is when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled, or expires.
On initial recognition financial assets/liabilities are measured at fair value. Transaction costs, which are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial assets/liabilities are included in their value, except when the financial assets/liabilities are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
For the purposes of subsequent measurement, in accordance with IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, the Company classifies the financial assets and financial liabilities into the following categories: financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss; loans and receivables; financial assets available for sale and financial liabilities at amortized cost. Classification under each category depends on the purpose and term of the respective contract. The Company does not apply this classification of assets and liabilities for the purposes of their presentation in the statement of financial position. Data about the respective categories of financial instruments is included in note 25.
A financial asset or liability is classified as held for trading when it is acquired mainly for the purpose of selling or being bought back in the near future or is a derivative instrument, for example, option of futures contracts concluded on international stock exchange markets.
After its initial recognition financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are measured at fair value as of the date of the preparation of the financial statements and every difference up to this amount is recognized in profit or loss in the period in which it arises.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable terms for settlement, which are not quoted on an active market. The assets from this category are presented in the statement of financial position as receivables on interest loans, trade and other receivables and cash.
After initial recognition, trade receivables and receivables on interest bearing loans are measured at amortized cost by using the effective interest rate method, less impairment loss, if any. Current receivables are not subject to amortization. Impairment loss is accrued if any objective evidence exists, such as material financial difficulties of the borrower, probability the borrower to be entered into liquidation and other (see note 3.4.4).
For the purposes of the statement of cash flows preparation, cash comprise cash in hand and cash at banks, with the exception of restricted cash, which the Company has no right to use or dispose of.
Financial assets available for sale are non-derivative financial instruments, which are not classified in the previous categories. They are presented in the statement of financial position of the Company as investments in associated companies.
The fair value of financial assets available for sale, which are quoted on an active market, are measured at the stock exchange price as of the date of the financial statements preparation. Financial assets for which there is no stock exchange price on an active market and the fair value of which cannot be reliably measured after their initial recognition are reported at cost less impairment losses, if any (see also note 3.4.4).
As of the end of the reporting period the management of the Company assessed whether there is any objective indication of impairment of all financial assets with the exception of financial assets at fair value through profit and loss. A financial asset is considered impaired only when there is objective evidence that the estimated future cash flows have decreased as a result of one or more events that have occurred after the initial recognition of the asset.
When such indications exist for assets carried at cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market interest rate for similar assets.
When a decline in the fair value of a financial asset available for sale has been recognized in other comprehensive income and there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, the cumulative loss, calculated as a difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, that had been recognized in other comprehensive income shall be reclassified from equity to profit or loss, even if the financial asset is not written off. Impairment losses recognized for equity instruments available for sale, cannot be reversed in profit or loss.
Impairment loss on loans and receivables carried at amortised cost is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate. Impairment losses are immediately recognized in profit or loss. It is recovered if a subsequent increase of the recoverable amount could be objectively tied to the occurrence of an event after the date on which the impairment loss was recognized.
After initial recognition the Company measures all financial liabilities at amortized cost with the exception of financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss, financial liabilities originating when the transfer of an asset does not meet the conditions for being written-off; agreements for financial guarantees, engagements for granting loans at an interest rate that is lower than the market interest rate. These liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position of the Company as trade and other liabilities and interest-bearing loans.
Trade and other payables are incurred as a result of purchases of goods and services. Current liabilities are not amortized.
Interest-bearing loans are initially recorded at fair value, determined from the cash proceeds less transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest bearing loans are measured at amortized cost, as any difference between the initial cost and maturity cost is recognized in profit or loss over the loan period, using the effective interest method. If no transaction costs have been incurred in negotiating an interest bearing loan, the loan is not subject to amortization. The same applies to bank overdrafts, where the borrower is entitled to multiple utilizations or repayments of the borrowed funds within a pre-determined overdraft limit.
Finance costs, including direct issue costs, are accounted for on an accrual basis using the effective interest method, except for transaction costs on bank overdrafts, which are recognized in profit or loss on a straight line basis over the overdraft period.
The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of financial asset or liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate for a shorter period, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability. When calculating the effective interest rate the Company measures the cash flows and takes into consideration all contractual provisions of the financial instrument, excluding eventual future loan impairment losses. The calculation includes fees, transaction costs, premiums or discounts, paid or received by the parties to the contract, which are an integral part of the effective interest rate.
Interest bearing loans are classified as current when they are expected to be settled within a twelve month period after the reporting period.
The share capital of the Company is presented at historical cost at the date of its registration.
Income tax expense comprises current income tax and deferred tax.
The current income tax is based on taxable profit for the year by applying the effective tax rate according to the tax legislation as of the date of the financial statements. Deferred tax is the income tax expected to be payable (recoverable) on taxable (deductible) temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the carrying amount of an asset and a liability in the statements of financial position, and the corresponding tax basis. Deferred tax is calculated using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, whereas deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, only to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on the information that the Company is provided for as of the date of the issuance of the financial statements. Deferred tax is recognized as an expense or income in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case the tax is also recognized outside profit or loss either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reported on a net basis when they are subject to a unified tax regime.
In accordance with the tax legislation enforceable for the years ended 2009 and 2008, the tax rates applied for the calculation of current tax liabilities of the Company is 10%, respectively. For the calculation of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company has used a tax rate of 10%.
Revenues and expenses are accounted for on an accrual basis, regardless of cash receipts and payments. They are reported in compliance with the matching concept.
Revenue is recognized at the fair value of the consideration received or expected to be received, less any discounts allowed and includes the economic benefits received by or due to the Company. The amounts gathered on behalf of third parties as tax on sales, such as the value added tax, are excluded from the income. Revenue generated from sale of fuel is reported in its gross amount with the due excise, which is regarded as integral part of the product's price.
Revenue from sales of goods is recognized when:
When the outcome of a transaction involving rendering of services can be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised by the reference of the stage of completion of the transaction at the reporting date. When the outcome of a transaction cannot be estimated reliably revenue is recognised only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recoverable.
Gain or loss from sales of property, plant, equipment, intangible assets and materials is reported as other income or other expense.
When economic benefits are expected to arise during few reporting periods and their relation with the revenue can be determined generally or indirectly, expenses are recognized in profit or loss on the basis of procedures for systematic and rational distribution.
Profit or loss arising from the exchange of assets is stated at the difference between the fair value of the asset received and the carrying amount of the asset exchanged.
Borrowing costs that may be directly attributed to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset, when it takes significant time before it is ready for use or sale, should be capitalized as part of the asset's cost. All other finance income and finance costs are accrued through profit or loss measured at amortized cost by using the effective interest rate method.
Income from equity interests is recognized when the Company is entitled to receive such income.
Expenses for hired assets under operating lease agreements are reported in profit or loss on a straightline basis for the period of the agreement.
Revenue generated from assets, leased out under operating lease agreements, is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis for the period of the agreement. Initial costs, directly related to the conclusion of the lease agreement, are capitalized in the cost of the asset and are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis for the term of the lease agreement.

Company's use of financial instruments exposes it to market, credit and liquidity risk. The current note presents information about risk management goals, policies and processes, as well as equity management. The Ultimate parent company's Board of Directors sets strategic guidelines for financial risk management as the operative implementation of the adopted polities and the realization of risk management processes are carried out by the Cash Flows Department and Global Markets Department of Petrol Holding AD.
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices and may occur as currency, interest or other price risk.
The Company use the following hierarchy for measurement of financial instruments subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.
Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from 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).
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The Company classify its current financial assets in Level 1 according to the hierarchy for measurement of financial instruments at fair value.
Financial statements as of December 31, 2009
This document is a translation of the original Bulgarian text, in case of divergence the Bulgarian original shall prevail,
The Company concludes transaction in currency, other that its functional currency, which exposes it to risk, related to possible fluctuations in exchange rates. Such risk arises mainly from fluctuations in the exchange rate of US dollars (USD) as the Company concludes purchases and has liabilities under received interest-bearing loans, denominated in USD. Transactions, concluded in EURO, do not expose the Company to risk due to the fact that since January 1, 1999 the Bulgarian lev is fixed to this currency.
Financial assets and liabilities, denominated in USD, are presented in the following table:
| December 31, 2009 | December 31, 2008 | |||

The sensitivity analysis to the currency risk has been estimated with a 11% change of the US dollar to the Bulgarian lev. Management believes that this is a reasonable and plausible change based on a statistical analysis of exchange rate dynamics in the past year, conducted on the basis of daily deviation, calculated for 250 days. If as of December 31, 2009 USD rate had gone up/gone down by 11% towards BGN and all other risk variables held constant, the loss after taxes would have decreased/increased by BGN 2,799 thousand, mainly as a result of exchange rate differences from revaluations of trade payables in USD. The result after taxes for 2009 is more sensible to the change in USD exchange rate than the result for 2008 due to increased exposures of trade payables in USD.
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk since part of its received bank loans bear variable interest rates, contracted at some base interest rate plus an interest rate margin.
The Company permanently monitors and analyses its basic interest exposures and develops various optimizing scenarios as refinancing, renewal of existing loans, alternative financing and calculates the influence of the changes in the interest rate in certain range over the financial result.
As of the date of the accompanying financial statements, the profile of interest-bearing financial instruments is as follows:
| December 31, 2009 BGN'000 |
December 31, 2008 BGN'000 |
|
|---|---|---|
| Fixed interest rate instruments | ||
| Financial assets | 28,084 | |
| Financial liabilities | (306, 284) | (299, 781) |
| Total | (278,200) | (299, 781) |
| Variable interest rate instruments | ||
| Financial assets | ||
| Financial liabilities | (9,998) | (5, 568) |
| Total | (9,998) | (5,568) |
Interest rate risk sensitivity analysis is based on the assumption that the variable interest rate positions as of the reporting date have existed at the same amount during the entire year and the reasonable and plausible increase/decrease of the interest rate is 12 base points. If the interest rates had been higher/lower by 12 base points, and all other variables were constant, the loss for the year would have been BGN 11 thousand higher/lower.
Investments in equity instruments classified as financial assets available for sale (at fair value though profit and loss) and derivatives expose the Company to price risk.
Equity instruments sensitivity analysis to the price risk is calculated only for those of them for which stock quotations exist. The net loss for the current year would have decreased/increased by BGN 79,833 thousand in case that the value of the index SOFIX had increased/decreased by 25 %, and all other variable are constant, due to impairments of financial assets, reported at fair value through profit or loss.
Credit risk is the risk for one of the parties on the financial instrument to fail to perform its obligation and in this way to cause loss for the other. Financial assets which potentially expose the Company to credit risk are mainly receivables on sales and granted interest loans. The Company is mainly exposed to credit risk in case the customers do not meet their payment obligations. The Company's policy in this area is focused on performing sales of goods and services on credit to clients with good credibility and on using adequate collateral to limit the risk of financial losses. The customers' credibility is assessed by taking into consideration their financial position, previous experience and other factors. The Company has set credit limits and monitors their observance on a regular basis.
The Company cooperates with large number of clients – mostly retail and wholesale merchants of fuel. About 85% of the Company's revenue for the current year is generated with six major clients. As of December 31, 2009 the receivables from sales with these customers amount to BGN 30,207 thousand which is 78% from the total net amount of the receivables from customers (including from related parties).
Credit risk on cash at bank account is minimum as the Company works only with banks with high credit rating.
The carrying amount of the financial assets, net of impairment losses, presents to a maximum extent the credit risk to which the Company is exposed.
Liquidity risk is the risk for the Company to fail to settle its financial liabilities when they become due. The policy in this area is focused on ensuring the availability of enough liquid resources to serve the liabilities when they become due including in emergency and unforeseen situations. The goal of management is to maintaining a permanent balance between continuity and flexibility of the financial resources by using different forms of financing. Management of liquidity risk includes maintenance of enough cash, negotiation of adequate credit lines, preparation, analysis and update forecasts of cash flows.
The table below presents the agreed maturity of the financial liabilities on the basis of the earliest date on which the Company can be obligated to repay them. The table shows the undiscounted cash flows which include principals and interests:
