INTERIM REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR THE PERIOD 1 JANUARY 2025 TO 30 JUNE 2025

The Board of Directors presents its report and financial statements of Phoenix Vega Mezz Plc (the "Company") for the period 1 January 2025 to 30 June 2025.

Incorporation and listing on the Athens Stock Exchange

The Company Phoenix Vega Mezz Plc was incorporated in Cyprus on 12 April 2021 as a private limited liability company under the provisions of the Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113. On 21 July 2021, the Company was renamed from Phoenix Vega Mezz Ltd to Phoenix Vega Mezz Plc and was transformed to a public limited liability company under the provisions of the Cyprus Companies Law.

On 12 August 2021, the shares of the Company were listed in the Alternative Market EN.A. Plus of the Athens Stock Exchange.

Principal activities and nature of operations of the Company

The principal activity of the Company, which remains unchanged from last year, is the holding and management of the following notes (the "Νotes"):

  • 95% of the Class B2 mezzanine notes issued by Phoenix NPL Finance DAC with ISIN IE00BLF7P639
  • 95% of the Class B2 mezzanine notes issued by Vega I NPL Finance DAC with ISIN IE00BMVHM635
  • 95% of the Class B2 mezzanine notes issued by Vega II NPL Finance DAC with ISIN IE00BMVHSF42
  • 95% of the Class B2 mezzanine notes issued by Vega III NPL Finance DAC with ISIN IE00BMVHSL02
  • 95% of the Class C2 junior notes issued by Phoenix NPL Finance DAC with ISIN IE00BLF7P852
  • 95% of the Class C2 junior notes issued by Vega I NPL Finance DAC with ISIN IE00BMVHM858

  • 95% of the Class C2 junior notes issued by Vega III NPL Finance DAC with ISIN IE00BMVHSN26

Review of current position, performance and future developments of the Company's business

On the issuance of the Notes, a Priority of Payments Schedule ("Waterfall'') was established, which is settled on a quarterly basis. Based on this schedule, the principal repayments regarding the mezzanine and junior notes are the last ones in the order of priority. The Waterfall is as follows:

  • Issuers' and other securitization expenses priority 1
  • Servicer and deferred servicer fees priority 2
  • Letter of guarantee providers interest, commitment fees due and other outstanding fees priority 3
  • Commissions for Hercules Asset Protection Scheme ("HAPS'') priority 4
  • Interest payments of senior notes not paid by the HAPS Guarantor priority 5
  • Interest payments of senior notes due priority 6
  • Reserves for senior notes' interest and other expenses and fees priority 7
  • Interest payments of mezzanine notes (including deferred interest) priority 8
  • Principal repayments of senior notes (up until their redemption in full) priority 9
  • Principal repayments of mezzanine notes (up until their redemption in full) priority 10
  • Principal repayments of junior notes priority 11

The contractual documents of the securitizations stipulate that after 24 months from the entry into force of the HAPS, if at the date of payment of interest on the mezzanine notes, the total net collections from the beginning of the portfolio servicing is falling short by 15% or more from the budgeted net collections, as specified in the respective business plan, the payment of the total (100%) of the interest payable at the relevant date to the holders of the mezzanine notes is deferred. Additionally, as illustrated in the Waterfall, the interest payable to the holders of the mezzanine notes, may be deferred if the cash flows in the respective period are not sufficient to cover the obligations preceding the order of satisfaction towards these holders.

The deferred interest is payable on the first interest payment date of the mezzanine notes at which, either the Senior notes' principal has been repaid in full, or the balance between actual and budgeted net collections has been fully restored, subject to funds being available for the payment of the interest of the mezzanine notes, otherwise on the following determined date for the payment of interest on the mezzanine notes.

INTERIM REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR THE PERIOD 1 JANUARY 2025 TO 30 JUNE 2025

The deferred interest payments will be restored once the respective conditions referred to in the previous paragraph are met.

For the period from 1 January 2025 to 30 June 2025, the Company received coupon payments of €4,307,304 in relation to the notes it holds (30 June 2024: €6,801,426).

NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the period 1 January 2025 to 30 June 2025

1. Basis of preparation

The interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the European Union (EU), and the requirements of the Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and requires Management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies. It also requires the use of assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Although these estimates are based on Management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.

2. Significant accounting policies

The interim financial statements, which are presented in Euro, have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, including IAS 34 ''Interim Financial Reporting''.

The accounting policies used in the preparation of the interim financial statements are in accordance with those used in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.

Costs that are incurred during the financial year are anticipated or deferred for interim reporting purposes if, and only if, it is also appropriate to anticipate or defer that type of cost at the end of the financial year.

Corporation tax for the period is calculated based on the expected tax rates for the whole financial year.

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis.

These interim financial statements must be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.

3. Fair value estimation

The table below depicts the carrying amounts and fair values of certain financial assets and liabilities, which are either material or their carrying amount is not a reasonable approximation of fair value:

95,748,940 91,038,263 100,488,235 96,258,670

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. The Company considers a variety of valuation methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at the reporting date.

3. Fair value estimation (continued)

Fair value measurements recognised in interim statement of financial position

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:

  • 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).
  • Level 3 inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The fair value reconciliation of Level 3 financial instruments is depicted in Note 10 "Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss". The changes in the fair value of financial instruments are recognized in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, under line item "Net income/(losses) from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss".

The fair value of Junior notes (Class C2) is nil.

Valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs

The Company utilizes an income approach valuation technique. Specifically, the Company determines the fair value of the Notes by discounting future cash flows utilizing revised business plan estimates adjusted for actual recovery rates to date and an additional haircut applied throughout the second half of the residual term assumed. A build up approach is followed on the discount rate determination utilizing observable market data (i.e. risk free rates) and various unobservable data (i.e. risk premia) to replicate market participants perspective towards the Notes.

The following table presents the valuation techniques used to measure the fair values of Level 3 financial instruments in the statement of financial position, along with the significant unobservable inputs applied:

Based on the existing contractual governance framework of the securitizations, decisions on significant financial and operating matters of the Issuers require the unanimous consent of the Class B1 and B2 noteholders. On this basis, the Issuers are jointly controlled by the said noteholders, meeting the joint venture definition. No investment in joint ventures has been recognised, as the Company does not hold any equity interest in the Issuers, thus its proportionate share of their net assets is zero. The Company does not hold any interests in the Issuers, other than the Class B2 and Class C2 notes, which are accounted for under IFRS 9.

During Q1 and Q2 of 2025, the interest to the holders of the mezzanine notes issued by Vega III NPL Finance DAC was deferred.

As at 30 June 2025 a reversal of ECL charge was recognized on Vega III financial asset amounting to €5,423 (31 December 2024: charge €433,504). The cumulative ECL stood at €1,119,837. Following a revision of the estimated cash flows of Vega III financial asset, the Company proceeded with a downward adjustment in the amortized cost of the note by €1,577,839 which was recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
