3. General framework for the preparation of the interim condensed financial statements

I) Preparation framework of the interim condensed financial information

This interim condensed financial information covers the nine-month period ended on September 30 th , 2022 and has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 "Interim Financial Reporting", as adopted by the European Union.

The accounting policies used in the preparation and presentation of this interim condensed financial information are the same as the accounting policies that were used by the Company and the Group for the preparation of the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31 st, 2021.

The interim condensed financial information must be considered in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31st, 2021, which are available on the Group's web site at the address www.quest.gr.

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss.

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates (Note 5). It also requires the Management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. Moreover, it requires the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of preparation of the financial information and the reported income and expense amounts during the reporting period. Although these estimates and judgments are based on the best possible knowledge of the Management with respect to the current conditions and activities, the actual results may eventually deviate from these estimates.

Differences between amounts presented in the financial statements and corresponding amounts in the notes are due to rounding.

The Group and the Company cover their needs for working capital through cash flows generated, including bank borrowing.

Current economic conditions impact (a) the demand for the products of the Group and the Company and (b) their ability to borrow funds from banks for the foreseeable future.

Positive future perspectives, taking into account possible fluctuations on the performance of the Group and the Company, create a reasonable expectation that both the Company and the Group have the ability to continue their operations as going concerns in the foreseeable future.

Therefore, the Group and the Company have used the going concern principle for the preparation of the interim condensed separate and consolidated financial statements for the period from January 1st, to September 30th , 2022.

II) New standards, amendments to standards and interpretations

New Standards, Interpretations, Revisions and Amendments to existing Standards that have entered into force and have been adopted by the European Union

The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments to Standards have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), have been adopted by the European Union and their application is mandatory from 01/01/2022 or later.

Amendments to IFRS 3 "Business Combinations", IAS 16 "Property, Plant and Equipment", IAS 37 "Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets" and "Annual Improvements 2018 - 2020" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 01/01/2022)

In May 2020, the IASB issued a series of amendments, including limited-purpose amendments to three standards, as well as the Board's Annual Improvements. Those amendments clarify the wording of the Standards or correct minor consequences, omissions, or conflicts between the requirements of the Standards. More specifically:

  • The amendments to IFRS 3 "Business Combinations" update a reference in IFRS 3 to the Conceptual Framework of Financial Reporting without modifying the accounting requirements relating to business combinations.
  • The amendments to IAS 16 "Property, Plant and Equipment" prohibit a company from deducting from the cost of fixed assets amounts received from the sale of items produced while the company is preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, the company recognizes these sales proceeds and related costs in the Income Statement.

(Amounts presented in thousand euros except otherwise stated)

  • The amendments to IAS 37 "Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets" specify the costs that an entity should include when assessing whether a contract is loss-making.
  • The Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2018-2020 Cycle make minor amendments to IFRS 1 "First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards", IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments", IAS 41 "Agriculture" and the Explanatory Examples accompanying IFRS 16 "Leases".

The above had no impact on the Group's or the Company's Financial Statements.

New Standards, Interpretations and Amendments to existing Standards that have not yet entered into force or been adopted by the European Union

The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments to Standards have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) but are either not yet effective or have not yet been adopted by the European Union.

Amendments to IAS 1 "Classification of Liabilities as Current or Long-Term" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 01/01/2023)

In January 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 that affect the presentation requirements for liabilities. Specifically, the amendments clarify one of the criteria for classifying a liability as non-current, the requirement for an entity to have the right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. The amendments include: (a) clarification that an entity's right to defer settlement should exist at the reporting date; (b) clarification that the classification of the liability is not affected by management's intentions or expectations regarding the exercise of the right to defer settlement; (c) explanation on how lending conditions affect classification; and (d) clarification of the requirements regarding the classification of liabilities of an entity that are to be or may be settled through the issuance of own equity securities. In addition, in July 2020, the IASB issued an amendment to clarify the classification of debt liabilities with financial covenants, which provides for a one-year deferral of the effective date of the originally issued amendment to IAS 1. The Group will consider the impact of all of the above on its Financial Statements, although they are not expected to have any effect. These have not been adopted by the European Union.

Amendments to IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements" and IFRS Practice Statement 2 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 01/01/2023)

In February 2021, the IASB issued limited purpose amendments relating to disclosures of accounting policies. The purpose of the amendments is to improve disclosures of accounting policies to provide more useful information to investors and other users of the financial statements. In particular, the amendments require disclosure of significant information about accounting policies, rather than disclosure of significant accounting policies. The Group will consider the impact of all the above on its Financial Statements, although they are not expected to have any effect.

Amendments to IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: Definition of Accounting Estimates" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 01/01/2023)

In February 2021, the IASB issued limited purpose amendments that clarify the difference between a change in accounting estimate and a change in accounting policy. This distinction is important because a change in accounting estimate is applied without retrospective effect and only to future transactions and other future events, unlike a change in accounting policy that is retrospective and applies to past transactions and other past events. The Group will consider the impact of all the above on its Financial Statements, although they are not expected to have any effect.

Amendments to IAS 12 "Income Taxes: Deferred Tax Related to Assets and Liabilities Arising from a Single Transaction" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 01/01/2023)

In May 2021, the IASB issued targeted amendments to IAS 12 to specify how entities should treat deferred tax arising from transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations - transactions for which entities recognize both an asset and a liability. In certain circumstances, entities are exempt from recognizing deferred tax when they recognize assets or liabilities for the first time. The amendments clarify that this exemption does not apply, and entities are required to recognize deferred tax on these transactions. The Group will consider the impact of all the above on its Financial Statements, although they are not expected to have any effect. These have not been adopted by the European Union.

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgments

Management's estimates and judgments are being constantly reassessed and are based on historic information and expectations for future events, which are deemed reasonable under the current circumstances.

for the period ended 30 September 2022

(Amounts presented in thousand euros except otherwise stated)

Impact of COVID-19

The COVID-19 health crisis had led the global economy into a period of uncertainty and instability. The uncertainty that prevailed in the capital markets worldwide for two years since the outbreak of the pandemic seems to be receeding as population vaccinations intensify and trading activity is maintained at satisfactory levels. We believe that from the second half of 2022 there will be an even greater normalization of the situation and a gradual return to normalcy. The Group management closely monitor the developments and estimate that there will be no material impact on the market sectors in which it operates. The Group maintains its liquidity at satisfactory levels with total cash and financing lines largely exceeding its operating needs.

Impact of energy crisis

The global energy crisis that began in 2021 is characterized by the continued lack of energy around the world, but also by the sharp increase in its prices, affecting countries such as the United Kingdom, China and, among others, the European Union. Greece is experiencing a significant price increase in all forms of energy. Group management monitors the developments on a continuous basis so as to take all the necessary measures that may be needed. The energy crisis has brought further negative consequences to the global economy for 2022 and therefore has negatively affected the Group's activities by increasing the operating costs of the companies, but also by reducing the demand for their products and services due to the limitation of the purchasing power of consumers. Each of these developments could have an impact on the financial results of 2022. But the experience so far from the management of the crisis during the fiscal year 2021, makes the Group Management relatively optimistic about the achievement of the goals set for 2022.

Military conflict in Ukraine

The war between Russia and Ukraine is having a negative effect on the entire global economic activity, as Europe used to get almost 40% of its natural gas and 25% of its oil supplies from Russia and is therefore facing new price increases. In addition, Russia is the largest supplier of wheat in the world, and together with Ukraine, they used to account for almost 1/4 of the total world exports. As it has been made clear from the pandemic, small disruptions (of economic activity) in one region can cause unrest in places far away. The Group operates within the European Union and in sectors of activity that do not have a direct geographical connection to the events in Ukraine, however, geopolitical uncertainty has led to higher inflation and increased volatility in the energy market affecting the general economic environment, conditions which are likely to continue. In addition, there is an increased risk of disruptions in the global supply chain. Management constantly reassess the potential impact of developments on the activities of the Group's companies.

5. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

The Company and the Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. Estimates and assumptions involving significant risk adjustment to the carrying value of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below.

Estimates and assumptions are continually reassessed and are based on historical experience as adjusted for current market conditions and other factors, including expectations of future events which are considered reasonable under the circumstances.

(a) Income tax

Judgement is required by the Group in determining the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

(b) Estimated trade receivables impairment

The Company examines the overdue balances of customers and whether these exceed the credit policies. The Company makes impairments of doubtful balances and creates corresponding provisions based on estimations. Estimates are made taking into consideration the timing and amount of repayment of receivables and any collateral of claims received. When there are guarantees, the Company creates provisions for doubtful debts, with percentage less than 100% of the claim. Such estimates are highly subjective and require the judgment of management.

(c) Estimation of non-financial assets impairment

The Company examine on an annual basis whether the non-financial assets have suffered any impairment in accordance with accounting practices. The recoverable amounts of cash generating units have been determined based on value in use. These calculations require the use of estimates.

(Amounts presented in thousand euros except otherwise stated)

(d) Pension plans

The present value of retirement obligations depends on several factors that are determined using actuarial methods and assumptions. Such actuarial assumption is the discount rate used to calculate the cost of retirement obligations. Changes in these assumptions will change the present value of the obligations presented on the balance sheet.

The Group and the Company determine the appropriate discount rate at the end of each year. This is defined as the rate that should be used to determine the present value of future cash flows, which are expected to be required to meet the obligations of the pension plans. Low risk corporate bonds are used to determine the appropriate discount rate, which are converted to the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and whose expiry date is approaching that of the related pension obligation.

(e) Provisions for pending legal cases

The Company has on-going legal cases. Management evaluates the outcome of the cases and, if there is a potential negative outcome then the Company recognizes the necessary provisions. The provisions, when they are required are calculated based on the present value of management's estimation of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. The present value assessment is based on several factors which require the exercise of judgment.

6. Segment information

Primary reporting format – business segments

The activities of the Group are divided into five business segments:

  • (1) Commercial activities
  • (2) Information Technology services
  • (3) Courier services
  • (4) Production of electric power from renewable sources
  • (5) Electronic payment solutions (Discontinued operations Note 31)

Management monitors the financial results of each business segment separately. These business segments are managed independently. The management personnel making business decisions is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the business areas.

The impact of the income tax on the earnings before tax of the Group for the period ended 30 September 2022 is at 24%, whereas for the comparative period of 2021 was at 8%.

The difference in the rate between the two periods is due to the profit of euro 75.8 million that arose at Group level in the corresponding period of 2021 from the sale of the subsidiary "Cardlink S.A." and which was not taxed at Company level, based on Circular E.2057/2021 for the implementation of the provisions of article 48A of L.4172/2013, which provide that, under specific conditions, a Greek company may sell holdings (securities) owned in another legal entity without being taxed on the resulting capital gain.

Regarding the Company's subsidiaries located abroad, the local tax rates are applied for the calculation of the current tax. The tax on the Company's pre-tax profits differs from the theoretical amount that would result if we used the weighted average tax rate of the country of origin of each company.

Based on art. 120 of Law 4799/2021 the income tax rate of legal entities is reduced by 2% (from 24% to 22%) for the income of the tax year 2021 onwards.

20. Dividends

The additions of euro 11.129 thousand for the current period include mainly additions for subsidiary "Infoquest Technologies SA" upon the commencement of lease of the new logistics center in Aspropyrgos, Attica.

Lease contracts usually have a fixed term from 4 to 10 years but may have extensions or termination rights.

The main contracts of the Group containing this type of rights mainly concern buildings. In their majority, these leases provide termination rights after a determined period. In most cases, it was considered that the termination rights are rather improbable to be exercised, as they basically serve the activities of the Group.

Lease contracts do not impose other penalties except for the security on the leased assets held by the lessor. Leased assets may not be used as security for borrowing purposes.

Under the profit on disposal of subsidiaries/associates amounting to euro 1.384 thousand for the Group in the current period, a gain of euro 1.226 thousand on the sale of Accusonus is included (Note 13), together with a gain of euro 157 thousand from the sale of subsidiary Cardlink One SA (Note 31). On a Company level, a loss of euro (20) thousand resulted from the sale of Cardlink One SA eliminated for consolidation purposes.

(Amounts presented in thousand euros except otherwise stated)

The gain of euro 77.834 thousand for the Group and euro 87.236 thousand for the Company in the comparative period primarily concerns the gain that resulted from the sale of subsidiary "Cardlink SA" and the sale of the 25% share held by the Company in associate "TEKA SA".

31. Disposal of subsidiaries and financial assets and liabilities held for sale

On April 17, 2022, an agreement was signed between the Company and "Edgepay Holdings Limited" for the sale of a share of 20% held by the former in Cardlink One SA., in the context of a shareholders' agreement signed on January 23, 2015, against a total consideration of euro 66 thousand. After the completion of this transaction, the Company remained with a share of 65%, whereas "Edgepay Holdings Limited" was holding a share of 35% in the share capital of Cardlink One SA. In April 2022, in the context of a shareholders' agreement dated May 27, 2021, the sale of the 65% share of the Company to Worldline against a consideration of euro 195 thousand took place. Overall, the Company disposed of its share of 85% in Cardlink One SA during the current period against a total consideration of euro 261 thousand.

The calculation of the result on the sale of the subsidiary Cardlink One SA to the Company and the Group is presented below:

Consideration for 20% share 66

In accordance with IFRS 5 "Non-current assets held for Sale and Discontinued Operations", in the prior fiscal year 2021 the assets and liabilities of Cardlink One, the disposal of which had not yet been completed, were qualifying as assets held for sale and therefore they were being accordingly presented on the statement of financial position.

In the current period, the operations of the subsidiary Cardlink One are now characterized as discontinued activities and therefore its results in the current reporting period, but also in the comparative, are being separately presented.
