2. Accounting Principles

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated and parent company's financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years present, unless otherwise stated.

The preparation of consolidated and parent company's financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Subsidiaries are the entities over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Transactions among the Group's enterprises, residual values and retained transaction earnings between the Group's enterprises are eliminated. Unrealised loss is eliminated too; however, it is considered to be the sign of transfer asset value decrease. The accounting principles of daughter enterprises were changed where necessary in order to ensure their consistency with the accounting principles applied by the Group.

The Group applies a policy of treating transactions with minority interests as transactions with parties external to the Group. Disposals to minority interests result in gains and losses for the Group that are recorded in the statement of comprehensive income.

The group's interests in jointly controlled entities are accounted for by proportionate consolidation. The group combines its share of the joint ventures' individual income and expenses, assets and liabilities and cash flows on a line-by-line basis with similar items in the group's financial statements. The group recognises the portion of gains or losses on the sale of assets by the group to the joint venture that is attributable to the other venturers. The group does not recognise its share of profits or losses from the joint venture that result from the group's purchase of assets from the joint venture until it resells the assets to an independent party. However, a loss on the transaction is recognised immediately if the loss provides evidence of a reduction in the net realisable value of current assets, or an impairment loss.

Items included in the financial statements of the Company and each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (hereinafter "the functional currency"). The financial statements are presented in Litas (LTL), which is the Company's (and each of the Group entity's) functional and presentation currency.

The value of long-term tangible assets is valued at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Subsequent costs are included into the asset's carrying amount or recognized as separate assets, as appropriate, only when it is likely that in future the Group will receive economic benefits associated with the item and the cost of the item will be measured accordingly. All other repairs and maintenance expenses are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they have been incurred.

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Buildings 15 – 55
years
Plant & machinery 5 -
29 years
Motor vehicles 4 -
10 years
Equipment and other property, plant and 3 -
20 years
equipment

The asset residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted, if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.

The Group's software which is expected to bring the Group material benefit in future, is valued at cost price less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method for the estimated useful life from 1 to 5 years.

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the balance sheet date. These are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are classified as 'trade and other receivables' in the balance sheet.

Inventories are subsequently carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related indirect production overheads, but excludes borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the costs of completion and selling expenses.

Loans granted and amounts receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less the amount of impairment loss. A provision for impairment of amounts 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 receivables. The impairment amount is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. The amount of the provision is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within 'general and administrative expenses'. Bad debts are written off during the year in which they are identified as irrecoverable.

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at nominal value. For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and at bank and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are included in borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.

Ordinary shares are stated at their par value. Consideration received for the shares sold in excess over their nominal value is shown as share premium. Incremental external costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are accounted for as a deduction from share premium.

Where the Company or its subsidiaries purchase the Company's equity share capital, the consideration paid including any attributed incremental external costs is deducted from shareholders' equity as treasury shares until they are sold, reissued, or cancelled. No gain or loss is

recognised in the statement of comprehensive income on the sale, issuance, or cancellation of treasury shares. Where such shares are subsequently sold or reissued, any consideration received is presented in the consolidated financial statements as a change in shareholders' equity.

Other reserves are established upon the decision of annual general meeting of shareholders on profit appropriation.

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost. Any difference between the amount at initial recognition and the redemption value is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

Profit is taxable at a rate of 15 per cent (2010: 15 per cent) in accordance with the Lithuanian regulatory legislation on taxation.

The Group pays social security contributions to the state Social Security Fund (the Fund) on behalf of its employees based on the defined contribution plan in accordance with the local legal requirements. Social security contributions are recognised as expenses on an accrual basis and are included in payroll expenses.

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or 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 and after eliminated sales within the Group. Revenue from sales of goods is recognised only when all significant risks and benefits arising from ownership of goods is transferred to the customer.

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

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

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net profit attributed to the shareholders from average weighted number of ordinary registered shares in issue, excluding ordinary registered shares purchased by the Company and the Group and held as treasury shares.

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of directors that make strategic decisions.

The Group's management identified the following operating segments within the Group: hard cheese, semi hard cheese, butter, milk, cream, sour cream, sour milk, yogurt, curds, curd cheese and other. These operating segments were aggregated into two main reportable segments, based on similar nature of products, production process, type of customers and method of distribution.

Government grants are recognised at fair value where there is sufficient evidence that the grant will be received and the Group and the Company will comply with all conditions attached.

Export subsidies paid by the Government for each exported tone of products meeting certain requirements are included in sales revenue.

Government grants received to finance acquisition of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current deferred income in the balance sheet. They are recognised as income on a straightline basis over the useful life of property, plant and equipment concerned.

Provisions are measured at the present value of expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specified to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense.

Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using effective interest method.
