RESPONSIBLITY FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Pursuant to the Croatian Accounting Law, the Management Board is responsible for ensuring that consolidated financial statements are prepared for each financial year in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') as published by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB') which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs and results of Podravka d.d. and its subsidiaries (jointly referred to as 'the Group') for that period.

After making enquiries, the Management Board has a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the Management Board continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

In preparing those consolidated financial statements, the responsibilities of the Board include ensuring that:

  • · suitable accounting policies are selected and then applied consistently;
  • judgements and estimates are reasonable and prudent;
  • " applicable accounting standards are followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the consolidated financial statements; and
  • the consolidated financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Group will continue in business.

The Board is responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Group and must also ensure that the consolidated financial statements comply with the Croatian Accounting Law. The Board is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Shareholders of Podravka d.d .:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Podravka d.d., Koprivnica ('the Company') and its subsidiaries ('the Group'), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2011, and the related consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.

Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Group's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

NOTE 3-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

3.1. Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

3.2. Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared on the historical cost basis, adjusted by revaluation of financial instruments that are carried at fair value, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRSs') issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and Croatian law.

The Group maintains its accounting records in the Croatian language, in Croatian kuna and in accordance with Croatian law and the accounting principles and practices observed by enterprises in Croatia. The accounting records of the Croatian and foreign subsidiaries are maintained in accordance with regulations effective in those jurisdictions.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements, are disclosed in Note 4.

The Group prepared these consolidated financial statements in accordance with Croatian regulations and IFRSs, and authorised them for issue on 21 March 2012.

3.3. Formal investigation

In January 2011, formal investigation by various authorities of the Republic of Croatia regarding the various business and financial transactions that individual members of the former Management Board carried out beyond the provision of the Company's Statute and Management Board decisions during their mandate have been completed. Management of the Company has examined the risks that may arise from financial and business transactions that were the subject of these investigations, and appropriately reflected such risks in the consolidated financial statements of Podravka Group.

With the consent of the Supervisory Board in its constitution at the reporting date of the consolidated and unconsolidated financial statements, the Management Board reached with parties involved in the business transactions an agreement, whereby Podravka d.d. paid additional HRK 49,269 thousand (EUR 6,576,954.00) to one of the parties, acting as a factor, to the Settlement Agreement concluded on 23 November 2011, in addition to the previously paid deposit in the amount of HRK 46,446 thousand (EUR 6,200,000.00) and accrued interest in the amount of HRK 1,668 thousand (EUR 225,397.00), which are reported in these financial statements under investment income.

These financial statements include all the known effects arising from those contracts. Based on the transactions recognised, the obligations of Podravka d.d. and the Podravka Group in connection with those contracts were fully met, and the entire transaction was finalised.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Basis of consolidation 3.4.

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of Podravka d.d. ("the Company") and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries) made up to 31 December each year. Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an investee so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the noncontrolling interests having a deficit balance.

When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the Group.

All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Goodwill 3.5.

Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of acquisition of the business , less accumulated impairment loss, if any.

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.

On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.

NOTE 3-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Non-current assets held for sale 3.6.

Non-current assets and disposal groups (which may include both non-current and current assets) are classified in the statement of the financial position as 'Non-current assets held for sale' if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction within twelve months after the reporting date rather than through continuing use. Non-current assets classified as held for sale in the current period's statement of the financial position are not reclassified in the comparative statement of the financial position. Non-current assets that include amounts expected to be recovered or collected more than twelve months after the reporting date. If reclassification is required, both the current and non-current portions of an asset are reclassified.

Held-for-sale property, plant and equipment or disposal groups as a whole are measured at the lower of their carrying amounts and fair values less costs to sell. Held-for-sale property, plant and equipment are not depreciated.

3.7. Revenue recognition

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration receivable for the sale of goods and services in the ordinary course of the Group's activities. Revenue is shown, net of value-added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.

The Group recognises revenue when the amount of reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the Group's activities as described below.

(a) Sales of products and trade goods - wholesale

The Group manufactures and sells its own products and goods of third parties in the wholesale market. Sales of goods are recognised when the Group has delivered the products to the wholesaler, the wholesaler has full discretion over the price to sell, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the wholesaler's acceptance of the products.

Delivery does not occur until the products have been shipped to the specified location, the risks of loss has been transferred to the wholesaler and either of the following has occurred: the wholesaler has accepted the products in accordance with the contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed or the Group has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance has been satisfied.

Products are sold with volume discounts and customers have a right to return faulty products in the wholesale market. Sales are recorded based on the price specific in the sales contracts, net of estimated volume discounts and returns at the time of sale. Accumulated experience is used to estimate the discounts and returns. The volume discounts are assessed based on anticipated annual purchases. No element of financing is deemed present as the sales are made with a credit term of approximately 90 days, which is consistent with the market practice.

(b) Sales of products and goods - retail

Sales of goods sold in retail stores are recognised when the Group sells a product to the customer. Retail sales are usually in cash or by credit card. The recorded revenue includes credit card fees payable for the transaction. Such fees are included in distribution costs. The Group does not operate any loyalty programmes.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.7. Revenue recognition (continued)

(c) Sales of services

Sales of services are recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered, by reference to completion of the specific transaction assessed on the actual service provided as a proportion of the total services to be provided.

(d) Interest income

Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest method.

(e) Dividend income

Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.

(f) Government subsidies

Government subsidies are recognised at fair value when there is a reasonable assurance that the subsidies will be received and that the Group with the conditions attaching to them. Government subsidies are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate, and are presented in the income statement within other loss/gains.

3.8. Leases

The Group leases certain property, plant and equipment. Leases of property, plant and equipment, where the Group has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership, are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalized at the inception of the lower of fair value of the leased property or the present value of minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance charges so as to achieve a constant rate on the balance outstanding. The interest element of the finance costs is charged to the income statement over the lease period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term.

Leases where the significant portion of risks and rewards of ownership are not retained by the Group are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

Sale and leaseback transactions

A sale and leaseback transaction involves the sale of an asset and the leasing back of the same asset. The lease payment and the sale price are usually interdependent because they are negotiated as a package. The accounting treatment of a sale and leaseback transaction depends upon the type of lease involved.

If a sale and leaseback transaction results in a finance lease, any excess of sales proceeds over the carrying amount is not immediately recognised as income by a seller-lessee. Instead, it is deferred and amortised over the lease term.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.8. Leases (continued)

Sale and leaseback transactions (continued)

If a sale and leaseback transaction results in an operating lease, and it is clear that the transaction is established at fair value, any profit or loss is recognised immediately. If the sale price is below fair value, any profit or loss is recognised immediately except that, if the loss is compensated for by future lease payments at below market price, it is deferred and amortised in proportion to the lease payments over the period for which the asset is expected to be used. If the sale price is above fair value, the excess over fair value is deferred and amortised over the period for which the asset is expected to be used.

3.9. Foreign currencies

(a) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the consolidated financial statements of the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates ('the functional currency'). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Croatian kuna (HRK), which is the Parent's functional and presentation currency.

(b) Foreign currency transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and loss resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement.

As at 31 December 2011, the official exchange rate for EUR 1 and USD 1 was HRK 7.53042 and HRK 5.81994 (31 December 2010: HRK 7.3852 and HRK 5.5683, respectively).

3.10. Borrowing costs

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.

All other borrowing costs are charged to the statement of income in the period incurred.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.11. Share-based payments

Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date. Details regarding the determination of the fair value of equity-settled share-based transactions are set out in note 40.

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group's estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest. At each reporting date, the Group revises its estimate of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss over the remaining vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment to the equitysettled employee benefits reserve.

For cash-settled share-based payments, a liability equal to the goods or services received is recognised at the current fair value determined at each reporting date.

3.12. Government grants

Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received. Government grants are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Specifically, government grants whose primary condition is that the Group should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire noncurrent assets are recognised as deferred revenue in the consolidated statement of financial position and transferred to profit or loss on a systematic and rational basis over the useful lives of the related assets. Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or loss already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they become receivable.

3.13. Dividends

Dividend distribution to the Company's shareholders is recognised as a liability in the consolidated financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company's shareholders.

3.14. Segment reporting

The Group identifies operating segments on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. Details on the operating segments are disclosed in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011

NOTE 3-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.15. Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company's and the Group's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

Deferred tax assets are recognised on the basis of taxable temporary differences on investments in subsidiaries and associates and joint ventures, unless the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the amount at which the Group expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (confinued)

3.15. Taxation (continued)

Current and deferred tax for the period

Current and deferred tax are recognised as an expense or income in profit or loss, except when they relate to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the tax is also recognised directly in equity, or where they arise from the initial accounting for a business combination.

In the case of a business combination, the tax effect is taken into account in calculating goodwill or in determining the excess of the acquirer's interest in the net fair value of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost.

Value added tax (VAT)

The Tax Authorities require the settlement of VAT on a net basis. VAT related to sales and purchases is recognised and disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position on a net basis. Where a provision has been made for impairment of receivables, impairment loss is recorded for the gross amount of the debtor, including VAT.

3.16. Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are included in the consolidated statement of financial position at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and provision for imparment, where required. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Subsequent expenditure is included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Land and assets under construction are not depreciation of other items of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

2011 2010
Buildings 10 to 50 years 10 to 50 years
Equipment 3 to 30 years 3 to 30 years

The effect of changed depreciation rates on the depreciation charge is presented in the Note 4.

The residual value of an asset is the estimated amount that the Group would currently obtain from disposal of the asset less the estimated costs of disposal, if the asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life. The residual value of an asset is nil if the Group expects to use the asset until the end of its physical life. The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.

An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount (Note 3.18).

Gains and loss on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with carrying amount, and are recognised within line item 'Other loss - net' in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.17. Intangible assets

Licences, brands, distribution rights and registration files

Product distribution rights of registration files use have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment, if any. Amortisation is calculated using the straightline method to allocate the cost of licences and rights over their estimated useful lives.

Rights to acquired trademarks and know-how are carried at historical cost and have an indefinite useful life, since based on an analysis of all of the relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to the period of time over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows. The stated right are tested annually for impairment and are stated at cost less accumulated impairment loss (Note 3.18).

Computer software

Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. These costs are amortised over their estimated useful lives.

Internally-generated intangible assets - research and development expenditure

Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

An internally-generated intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, and only if, all of the following have been demonstrated:

  • " the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
  • " the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
  • " the ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
  • " how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
  • · the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and
  • " the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

The amount initially recognised for internally-generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above. Where no internally-generated intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred.

Subsequent to initial recognition, internally-generated intangible assets are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment loss, on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately.

NOTE 3-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.18. Impairment of tangible and intangible assets

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assess to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

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 (or cash-generating unit) is recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or 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 recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase

3.19. Inventories

Inventories of raw materials and spare parts are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the weighted average method, and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses.

The cost of work-in-process and finished goods comprise raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity).

Trade goods are carried at selling price less applicable taxes and margins.

Small inventory and tools are expensed when put into use.

NOTE 3-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.20. Trade receivables

Trade receivables are recognised initially at cost which is equal to the fair value at the moment of recognition and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for impairment. An impairment allowance for trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy, and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The amount of the allowance is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The amount of the allowancen is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within line item 'Selling and distribution costs'.

Cash and cash equivalents 3.21.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and other shortterm highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less. Bank overdrafts are included within current liabilities on the consolidated statement of financial position.

3.22. Share capital

Share capital consists of ordinary shares. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Any excess of the fair value of the consideration received over the par value of the shares issued is presented in the notes as a share premium.

Where the Group purchases its equity share capital (treasury shares), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) 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 and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the Group's equity holders.

3.23. Employee benefits

(a) Pension obligations and post-employment benefits

In the normal course of business through salary deductions, the Group makes payments to mandatory pension funds on behalf of its employees as required by law. All contributions made to the mandatory pension funds are recorded as salary expense when incurred. The Group does not have any other pension scheme and consequently, has no other obligations in respect of employee pensions. In addition, the Group is not obliged to provide any other post-employment benefits.

(b) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Group before the normal retirement date, or whenever an employee accepts volundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognises termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to either: terminating the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal; or providing termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.23. Employee benefits (continued)

(c) Regular retirement benefits

Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the reporting date are discounted to their present value.

(d) Long-term employee benefits

For defined benefit relirement benefit schemes, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at each reporting date. Actuarial gains and loss are recognised in full in the period in which they occur.

Past service cost is recognised immediately to the extent that the benefits are already vested, and otherwise is amortised on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested.

(e) Short-term employee benefits

The Group recognises a provision for bonuses where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

(f) Share-based compensation

The Group operates an equity-settled, share-based compensation plan. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of the options is recognised as an expense. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted, excluding the impact of any non-market vesting conditions (for example, profitability and sales growth targets). Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to vest (become exercisable). At each reporting date, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the statement of comprehensive income, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to share capital (nominal value) and share premium when the options are exercised.

3.24. Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and it is probable (i.e. more likely than not) that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the obligation. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Where the effect of discounting is material, the amount of the provision is the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation, determined using the estimated risk free interest rate as the discount rate. Where discounting is used, the reversal of such discounting in each year is recognized as a financial expense and the carrying amount of the provision increases in each year to reflect the passage of time.

Provisions for restructuring costs are recognized when the Group has a detailed formal plan for the restructuring that has been communicated to parties concerned.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011

NOTE 3-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.25. Financial assets

Investments are recognised and derecognised on a trade date where the purchase or sale of an investment is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at fair value, plus transaction costs, except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value.

Financial assets are classified into as 'financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' (FVTPL), 'investments held to maturity' (HTM), 'available-for-sale financial assets' (AFS) and 'loans and receivables'. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees on points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.

Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets designated as at FVTPL.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL where the financial asset is either held for trading or it is designated as at FVTPL.

A financial asset is classified as held for trading if:

  • · it has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near future; or
  • · it is a part of an identified portfolio of financial instruments that the Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
  • · it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

A financial asset other than a financial asset held for trading may be designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:

  • · such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or
  • · the financial asset forms part of a group of financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Group's documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or
  • · it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement permits the entire combined contract (asset or liability) to be designated as at FVTPL.

NOTE 3-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.25. Financial assets (continued)

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)(continued)

Financial assets at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any resultant gain or loss recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in the statement of comprehensive income incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 35.

Held-to-maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity dates that the Group has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less any impairment.

Available-for-sale financial assets (AFS)

AFS financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated as AFS or are not classified as (a) loans and receivables, (b) held-to-maturity investments or (c) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

Unlisted shares and listed redeemable notes held by the Group that are traded in an active market are classified as being AFS and are stated at fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 39. Gains and loss arising from changes in fair value are recognised directly in equity in the investments revaluation reserve with the exception of impairment loss, interest calculated using the effective interest method and foreign exchange gains and loss on monetary assets, which are recognised directly in statement of comprehensive income. Where the investment is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in the investments revaluation reserve is included in statement of comprehensive income for the period.

Dividends on AFS equity instruments are recognised in statement of comprehensive income when the Company's right to receive the dividends is established.

The fair value of AFS monetary financial assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate prevailing at the reporting period. The foreign exchange gains and loss that are recognised in profit or loss are determined based on the amortised cost of the monetary asset. Other foreign exchange gains and loss are recognised in other comprehensive income.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial.

NOTE 3-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.25. Financial assets (continued)

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.

For all other financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • · significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or
  • · breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or
  • · it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation; or
  • · the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

For certain categories of financial assets, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for imparment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Group's past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period of 360 days, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate.

For financial assets carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods.

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss.

When an AFS financial asset is considered to be impaired, cumulative gains or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss in the period.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.

NOTE 3-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.25. Financial assets (continued)

Impairment of financial assets (continued)

In respect of AFS equity securities, impairment loss previously recognised in profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of investments revaluation reserve. In respect of AFS debt securities, impairment loss are subsequently reversed through profit or loss if an increase in the fair value of the investment can be objectively related to an event occurring after the recognition of the impairment loss.

Derecognition of financial assets

The Group derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire; or it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Group recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Group continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.

3.26. Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group

Classification as debt or equity

Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities 'at FVTPL' or 'other financial liabilities'.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL where the financial liability is either held for trading or it is designated as at FVTPL.

A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:

  • · it has been incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the near future; or
  • · it is a part of an identified portfolio of financial instruments that the Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
  • · it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.26. Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group (continued)

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) (continued)

A financial liability other than a financial liability held for trading may be designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:

  • · such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or
  • · the financial liability forms part of a group of financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Group's documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or
  • · it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement permits the entire combined contract (asset or liability) to be designated as at FVTPL.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any resultant gain or loss recognised in statement of comprehensive income. The net gain or loss recognised in statement of comprehensive income incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability. Fair value is determined in the manner described in note 39.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs.

Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis.

The effective interest method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3.26. Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group (continued)

Contracts on financial guarantee

Agreement on the financial guarantee is a contract under which the issuer is obligated to pay the holder a certain sum as compensation for loss suffered by the owner because the borrower has not fulfilled its obligation to pay under the terms of a debt instrument.

Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Group initially measured at fair value and subsequently, if they are not destined for at fair value through profit or loss, the higher of:

  • · the amount of the obligation under the contract, which is determined in accordance with IAS 37 Provisions , Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets ",
  • · original amount minus the cumulative depreciation, if any, are recognized in accordance with revenue recognition policies.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group's obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire.

3.27. Comparatives

Where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011

NOTE 4 - CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Critical judgements in applying accounting policies

In the application of the Group's accounting policies, which are described in note 3, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The Group reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end of each annual reporting period. During 2011, the directors determined that the useful life of certain items of property, plant and equipment exceeded the original estimates, resulting in a decreased depreciation charge of HRK 4 thousand.

During 2010, the directors determined that the useful life of certain items of property, plant and equipment exceeded the original estimates, resulting in a decreased depreciation charge of HRK 1,516 thousand.

Impairment of non-current assets, including goodwill

The impairment calculation requires the estimate of the value in use of the cash generating units. Value in use is measured using the discounted cash flow projections. The most significant variables in determining cash flows are discount rates, time values, the period of cash flow projections, as well as assumptions and judgements used in determining cash receipts and expenditure.

Based on the calculation of the net present value of future cash flows, in 2011 the Group recognized impairment of intangible assets as follows: brands by HRK 40,275 thousand, goodwill by HRK 7,134 thousand, pharmaceuticals rights by HRK 766 thousand and also during the year 2011 the Group recognised SMS brand at the value of HRK 7,800 thousand (during 2010 the Group did not recognise any impairment of intangible assets) (Note 20).

The carrying amount of goodwill is HRK 41,129 thousand (2010: HRK 44,293 thousand) (see Note 20).

For individual intangible assets, discounted cash flows were determined using the revised plans developed by market and product category, adopted by Management Board. The changes in the budgeted income and expenses for certain brands and companies resulted from a detailed analysis of the actual performance in 2011 versus 2010, and the 2010 performance versus 2009 in which it was identified a trend of significant underperformance compared to the plans adopted in those years. The Management is confident that the actual figures, based on such changed plans, will show minimal departures from the budgeted ones.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011

NOTE 4 - CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES (continued)

Availability of taxable profits against which the deferred tax assets could be recognised

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. In determining the amount of deferred taxes that can be recognised are required, which are based on the probable quantification of time and level of future taxable profits, together with the future tax planning strategy. In 2010 and 2011 Group recognized deferred tax assets at the available tax differences.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets was HRK 56,022 thousand (2010: HRK 52,330 thousand) (see Note 17).

Actuarial estimates used in determining the retirement bonuses

The cost of defined benefits is determined using actuarial estimates. Actuarial estimates involve assumptions about discount rates, future salary increases and the mortality or fluctuation rates. Because of the long-term nature of those plans, there is uncertainty surrounding those estimates. At 31 December 2011, provisions for jubilee benefits amount to HRK 12,004 thousand and retirement bonuses amount to HRK 13,689 thousand. (2010: the provisions for jubilee benefits amounted to HRK 12,253 thousand and retirement bonuses amounted to HRK 12,511 thousand (see notes 36 and 38).

Consequences of certain legal actions

There are a number of legal actions involving certain companies within the Group, which have arisen from the regular course of their operations. The management makes estimates when the probable outcome of the legal action has been estimated, and the provisions are recognised on a consistent basis (see note 36).

Fair value estimates of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Pursuant to International Accounting Standard 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (IAS 39), the Management Board decided to classify the bonds as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss because the financial liabilities of this nature have been created for the purpose of repurchase in the near future and because they are traded on capital market.

The Group does not reclassify its financial liabilities designated at FVTPL during the period in which it holds them or delivers them.

The Group's original investment strategy contemplated to have assets designated through profit and loss to substantially eliminate mismatch via financial liabilities through profit and loss. The Group has subsequently changed its investment strategy based on the circumstances prevailing on the security market.

In 2011 the long-term assets of Lero d.o.o. were reclassified to non-current assets held for sale, upon which impairment was recognised in the amount of HRK 14,525 thousand. The reclassification was performed because, in 2011, production at Lero d.o.o. was discontinued on the basis of the decision of the Management Board of Podravka d.d. to sell the properties at Lero d.o. o. during 2012, and steps are being taken to complete the sale.

The properties at subsidiary Podravka Kft., Budapest, remained unsold during 2011 because of unfavourable market conditions. The Management Board has no intent to put those properties into use for business purposes and remains committed to the plan to sell them, along with continuing its activities to complete the sale of those assets in 2012.

During 2011 the properties located at the addresses A. Starcevica 29 and Trg bana Jelačića 16 were not sold because of extremely unfavourable conditions on the market. The Management Board has no intent to put those properties into use for business purposes and it plan remains to take steps to complete their sale during 2012.

In 2011, based on an independent appraisal, the property at the address A. Starcevića 29, Korpivnica, was impaired, with the impairment loss recognised in the amount of HRK 2,117 thousand.

Podravka Podgorica d.o.o. received land as a compensation for its receivables in the amount of EUR 250 thousand owed by its customer Plus Commerce, which, following the recognition, the company classified as assets held for sale because the Management Board is actively taking steps to complete the sale of the asset in 2012.

The loss on the impairment of investments and properties are presented in the Statement of comprehensive income under "Other loss" (Note 7).

The fair values are based on cash flows discounted using a rate based on the borrowing rate of 6.08 % (2010: 5.05%).

The carrying amounts of short-term borrowings approximate their fair values, and the discounting effect is not significant because of the short-term nature of the borrowings.

39.3. Financial risk management objectives

The Group operates internationally and finances its operations using foreign currency denominated borrowings to a significant extent. As a result, the Group is exposed to the effect of changes in market prices of food material and of exchange differences and changes in interest rates. In addition, due to credit terms extended to its customers, the Group is exposed to a risk of default.

The Treasury function at Podravka provides financial services for Podravka and coordinates the financial operations of the Group on the domestic and international markets, and monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of Podravka. The principal risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

The significant risks, together with the methods used to manage these risks, are described below. To Group does not use any derivatives to manage its risks or for speculative purposes. The Company is in compliance with the changes in variable interest rates entered into a contract on Interest Rate Swap.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011

NOTE 39 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

39.4. Market risk

Commodity risk management (price risk)

Volatility in food material prices is a pervasive element of the Group's business environment.

The Group operates a centralised Purchase function. Fixed rate, long-term framework agreements are entered into, with the terms and conditions defined in line with the market trends. Thus, the Purchase function monitors regularly the global trends on commodity exchanges and uses regular market reports provided by strategic suppliers, which serves as the basis to respond on the spot market whenever a certain commodity has reached a favourable price for the Group.

The Group does not use any forward agreements to manage its exposure to the risk of fluctuation in food material prices.

Sales function based risk

The Group generates approximately 48.0% (2010: 49%) of its revenue on the domestic market, whereas around 52.0% (2010: 51%) of the sales are generated on international markets, mainly through related entities. The Group determines the selling prices and rebates in accordance with the macroeconomic conditions prevailing in each of the markets, which is at the same time the maximum sales function based risk.

39.5. Foreign exchange risk management

The Group undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Hence, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. The carrying amounts of the Group's foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the reporting date are as follows:

Liabilities Assets
2011 2010 2011 2010
(in thousands of HRK) (in thousands of HRK)
European Union (EUR) 1,122,180 851,342 158,898 271.162
Bosnia and Herzegovina (BAM) 97,804 99.456 141.477 118,260
Poland (PLN) 20,734 36.632 59.009 72,897
USA (USD) 14,787 12,944 7,063 9,516
Other currencies 81,164 68,783 171,833 114.417

Foreign currency sensitivity analysis

The Group is mainly exposed to the fluctuations in the exchange rate of Croatian kuna to Euro and US dollar, since the most of the trading on the international market is done in Euro and US dollar.

NOTE 39 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

39.5. Foreign exchange risk management (continued)

The following table details the Group's sensitivity to a 1.4 % increase (2010: a 0.5 % increase) in Croatian kuna against the relevant foreign currencies. The sensitivity rates below are used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes monetary assets and monetary liabilities in foreign currencies. A negative number below indicates a decrease in profit and other equity where Croatian kuna increases against the relevant currency for the percentage specified above. For a weakening of Croatian kuna against the relevant currency in the same percentage, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit.

EUR impact USD impact

Loss 1,694 89 480
Impact of other currencies
2011 2010
(in thousands of HRK)
Profit 270
Loss 1.683

The exposure to the fluctuations in exchange rates by 1.42% is mainly attributable to the borrowings, trade payables and trade receivables denominated in Euro (EUR), in Polish Zloty (PLN), Convertible Marks (BAM) and US Dollar (USD).

39.6. Interest rate risk management

The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as it borrows funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. A large majority of the Group's borrowings are at variable rates. The Group uses interest rate swap for managin interest rate risk (Note 15).

Interest rate sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates at the reporting date. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of liability outstanding at the reporting date was outstanding for the whole year. A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

NOTE 39-FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

39.6. Interest rate risk management (continued)

Interest rate sensitivity analysis (continued)

If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher lower and all other variables were held constant, the interest expense of the Group for the year 2011 would have changed by HRK 5,255 thousand (2010: 3,079 thousand).

Because of increased long-term debt at variable rates, the impact of a potential changes in interest rates on profit has increased.

39.7. Other price risk

The Group is exposed to equity price risks arising from equity investments. Equity investments are held for strategic rather than trading purposes.

39.8. Credit risk management

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a "Credit Risk Management Procedure", which it applies in dealing with customers and obtains sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.

Customers are classified into risk groupings based on the financial indicators and own trading records, and appropriate credit risk mitigation measures are taken for each risk class.

Customers are classified mainly on the basis of official financial statements of customers, and credit ratings supplied by independent rating agencies, and the history of trading with each customer.

Podravka's exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and credit exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that are reviewed at least annually.

The Group transacts with a large number of customers from various industries and of various size. The major risk concentration is found in relation to shopping malls.

The Group has no significant credit exposures that would not be covered by collateral.

39.9. Liquidity risk management

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, which has built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group's short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity managements. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves and credit lines, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

Liquidity and interest rate tables

The following tables detail the Group's remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities presented in the consolidated statement of financial position at the period end.

39.10. Fair value of financial instruments

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:

  • · the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded on active liquid markets is determined with reference to quoted market prices;
  • · the fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivative instruments) is determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis using prices from observable current market transactions and dealer quotes for similar instruments.

Financial instruments held to maturity in the normal course of operations are carried at the lower of cost and the net amount less portion repaid.

Fair value is determined as the amount at which a financial instrument can be exchanged between willing and knowledgeable parties in an arm's-length transaction, except in the event of forced sale or liquidation. The fair value of a financial instruments is the one quoted on the securities market or obtained using the discounted cash flow method.

At 31 December 2011, the carrying amounts of cash, short-term deposits, receivables, short-term liabilities, accrued expenses, short-term borrowings and other financial instruments approximate their market value due to the short-term nature of those assets and liabilities.

39.10.1 Fair value measurements recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position

The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured 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 I 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).

41.5. IMPACT OF THE ACQUISITION ON THE GROUP PERFORMANCE

The 2011 profit includes HRK 143 thousand in respect of the profits generated by the acquired pharmacies.

Had the business combinations been effectively completed on 1 January 2011, the Group's revenue from continuing operations and the profit from continuing operations would have amounted to HRK 3,629,021 thousand and HRK 69,448 thousand, respectively. In the opinion of the Management Board, the amounts initially accounted for reflect the current performance levels on an annual basis, whereas revenues are expected to increase in the future periods, along with the related positive impact on the Group's profit.

In arriving at the revenue and profit figures of the Group for the purpose of initial accounting (assuming that the business combinations were completed on 1 January 2011), the following facts were used:

  • · depreciation of plant and equipment was determined by reference to the fair value on initial accounting of the business combination, rather than on the basis of the carrying amounts recognised in the pre-acquisition financial statements;
  • " borrowing costs incurred for financing purposes were determined by reference to the credit rating, debt and equity of the Group subsequent to the business combination.
