All shares of the Company are ordinary registered intangible shares with the par value of EUR 0.17 each and were fully paid as at 31 March 2024 and 31 December 2023.
As at 31 March 2024 and 31 December 2023 the Company did not hold its own shares.
The Group consisted of Snaigė AB and the followings subsidiaries as at 31 March 2024 (hereinafter – the "Group"):

The General Meeting of Shareholders on 21 February 2024 approved a new Board of 5 members. The new Board has one representative of Snaigė AB. As at 31 December 2023, the Board consisted of 4 members, with no representatives of Snaigė AB.
Snaige-Ukraina TOB (Kiev, Ukraine) was established in 2002. Since the acquisition in 2002, the Company holds 99% shares of this subsidiary. The subsidiary provides sales and marketing services in the Ukrainian market.
Taking into account that TOB Snaige Ukraine has no economic activity, no assets, no known net realisable value and no foreseeable future economic activity and future cash inflows, a full impairment of financial assets (EUR 26 thousand) has been made, and the company has not been consolidated in the consolidated financial statements of Snaige AB.
Almecha UAB (Alytus, Lithuania) was established in 2006. The main activities of the company are production of refrigerating components and equipment. The Company acquired 100% of the Company's shares.
At 31 March 2024 the number of employees of the Group was 323 (as at 31 December 2023 – 332).
The principal accounting policies adopted in preparing the Group's financial statements are as follows:
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), as adopted by the European Union (hereinafter the "EU").
These financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis.
The Group's financial statements at 31 March 2024 have been prepared on the basis that the Group will continue in operation for at least 12 months. Going concern has been assessed using the following assumptions and risks:
In the opinion of the management of the Company and the Group, this situation is temporary and is expected to be resolved with available resources. The Company's development in other profitable refrigeration product categories and the active search for customers in new markets and segments will help the Company to secure revenue growth.
Management acknowledges that the above assumptions are subject to material uncertainties which may cast doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, but notwithstanding this and taking into account the material uncertainties, management expects that the Company will have sufficient resources to continue as a going concern in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Company has continued to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.
Neither the Company nor its directors or shareholders are subject to war-related sanctions.
The Group's financial statements are presented in the currency of the European Union, the euro (EUR), which is the Company's functional and the Group's and the Company's presentation currency. Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the foreign currency exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency rate of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. All differences are included in profit or loss.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates as of the date of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the rate of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date.
On disposal of a foreign entity, the deferred cumulative amount recognised in the shareholders' equity caption relating to that particular foreign operation is transferred to profit or loss.
The applicable exchange rates in relation to euro as at the 31 March 2024, and 31 December 2023, were as follows:
| 31 March 2024 | 31 December 2023 | |
|---|---|---|
| UAH | 42.31042 | 42.30294 |
| USD | 1.0811 | 1.1050 |
The consolidated financial statements of the Group include Snaigė AB and its subsidiaries. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year, using consistent accounting policies.
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date from which effective control is transferred to the Company and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. All intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains and losses on transactions among the Group companies have been eliminated. The equity and net result attributable to non-controlling interest are shown separately in the statement of financial position and profit or loss.
Acquisitions and disposals of non-controlling interest by the Group are accounted as equity transaction: the difference between the carrying value of the net assets acquired from/disposed to the non-controlling interests in the Group's financial statements and the acquisition price/proceeds from disposal is accounted directly in equity.
Intangible assets are measured initially at cost. Intangible assets are recognised if it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the Group and the Company and the cost of asset can be measured reliably. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives (1 – 8 years).
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditure on individual projects is recognised as an intangible asset when the Group and the Company can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, their intention to complete and their ability to use or sell the asset so that the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete the asset and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development.
Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the cost model is applied requiring the asset to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the asset begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use.
Amounts paid for licences are capitalised and amortised over their validity period.
The costs of acquisition of new software are capitalised and treated as an intangible asset if these costs are not an integral part of the related hardware. Software is amortised over a period not exceeding 3 years.
Costs incurred in order to restore or maintain the future economic benefits that the Group and the Company expect from the originally assessed standard of performance of existing software systems are recognised as an expense when the restoration or maintenance work is carried out.
Property, plant and equipment are assets that are controlled by the Group and the Company, which are expected to generate economic benefits in the future periods with the useful life exceeding one year, and which acquisition (manufacturing) costs could be reliably measured. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, excluding the costs of day-to-day servicing, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of such assets when that cost is incurred if the asset recognition criteria are met. Replaced parts are written off.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company 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 profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Property, plant and equipment are shown at revalued amount, being the fair value at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are made with sufficient regularity such that the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which is determined using fair value at the date of statement of financial position. The fair value of the property, plant and equipment is determined by appraisals undertaken by certified independent valuators. Any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses at the date of revaluation were eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset; instead, the historical acquisition cost was increased by the surplus of the revaluation.
Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of property, plant and equipment are credited to other comprehensive income and shown as revaluation reserve in shareholders' equity. The revaluation reserve for property, plant and equipment is being reduced each period by the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset and that based on its original cost, which is transferred directly to retained earnings.
The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged to other comprehensive income and debited against revaluation reserve in equity; all other decreases are charged to the profit or loss. Revaluation increases that offset previous decreases charged to the profit or loss are recognised in the profit or loss.
At each reporting period, the difference between depreciation based on the revaluated carrying amount of the asset charged to the profit or loss, and depreciation based on the asset's original cost is transferred from revaluation reserve to retained earnings net of deferred income tax.
Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives from 1 October 2016:
| Buildings and structures (including investment property) | 15 – 73 years |
|---|---|
| Machinery and equipment | 5 – 63 years |
| Vehicles | 4 – 20 years |
| Other property, plant and equipment | 3 – 30 years |
Weighted average useful lives from 1 October 2016 are as follows:
| Buildings and structures (including investment property) | 55 years |
|---|---|
| Machinery and equipment | 21 years |
| Vehicles | 16 years |
| Other property, plant and equipment | 12 years |
The asset's carrying amounts, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.
Gains and losses on disposal are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognised within other income or other expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, the amounts included in revaluation reserve are transferred to retained earnings.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of comprehensive income in the year the asset is derecognised.
Construction in progress is stated at cost less accumulated impairment. This includes the cost of construction, plant and equipment and other directly attributable costs. Construction in progress is not depreciated until the relevant assets are completed and put into operation.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Property, plant and equipment once classified as held for sale are not depreciated.
If the Group has classified an asset as held for sale, but the above mentioned criteria are no longer met, the Group ceases to classify the asset as held for sale and measure a non-current asset that ceases to be classified as held for sale at the lower of: its carrying amount before the asset was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation, amortisation or revaluations that would have been recognised had the asset not been classified as held for sale, and its recoverable amount at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell. The adjustment to the carrying amount of a non-current asset that ceases to be classified as held for sale and recorded in profit or loss in the period in which the criteria are no longer met.
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realisable value, after write-down of obsolete and slow moving items. Net realisable value is the selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the costs of completion, marketing and distribution. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress
includes the applicable allocation of fixed and variable overhead costs based on a normal operating capacity. Unrealisable inventory is fully written-off.
Receivables are initially recorded at the true value at the same moment as they were given. Later receivables and loans are accounted in justice to their depreciation.
Cash includes cash on hand and cash with banks. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less and that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits at current accounts, and other short-term highly liquid investments.
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised, otherwise – expensed as incurred. No borrowing costs were capitalised as at 31 March 2024 and 31 December 2023.
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value of proceeds received, net of expenses incurred. They are subsequently carried at amortised cost, the difference between net proceeds and redemption value being recognised in the net profit or loss over the period of the borrowings (except for the capitalised portion as discussed above).
Borrowings are classified as non-current if the completion of a refinancing agreement before the balance sheet date provides evidence that the substance of the liability at the balance sheet date was non-current.
Derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date the derivative contract is entered into. Subsequent to initial recognition and measurement, outstanding derivatives are carried in the statement of financial position at the fair value. Fair value is determined using the discounted cash flow method applying the effective interest rate. The estimated fair values of these contracts are reported on a gross basis as financial assets for contracts having a positive fair value; and financial liabilities for contracts with a negative fair value. Contracts executed with the same counterparty under legally enforceable master netting agreements are presented on a net basis. The Group had no derivative contracts outstanding as at 31 March 2024 and 31 December 2023.
Gain or loss from changes in the fair value of outstanding derivative contracts is recognised in the comprehensive income statement as they arise.
Factoring transaction is a funding transaction wherein the Group transfers to factor claim rights for determined fee. The Group alienate rights to receivables due at a future date according to invoices.
The Group recognises finance leases as assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position at amounts equal at the inception of the lease to the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, to the present value of the minimum lease payments. The rate of discount used when calculating the present value of minimum payments of finance lease is the nominal interest rate of finance lease payment, when it is possible to determine it, in other cases, Group's composite interest rate on borrowings is applied. Directly attributable initial costs are included into the asset value. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
Direct expenses incurred by the lessee during the lease period are included in the value of the leased asset.
The depreciation is accounted for finance lease assets and it also gives rise to financial expenses in the statement of comprehensive income for each accounting period. The depreciation policy for leased assets is consistent with that for depreciable assets that are owned. The leased assets cannot be depreciated over the period longer than the lease term, unless the Group according to the lease contract, gets transferred their ownership after the lease term is over.
If the result of sales and lease back transactions is finance lease, any profit from sales exceeding the book value is not recognised as income immediately. It is deferred and amortised over the finance lease term.
Leases where the lessor retains all the risk and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
If the result of sales and lease back transactions is operating lease and it is obvious that the transaction has been carried out at fair value, any profit or loss is recognised immediately. If the sales price is lower than the fair value, any loss is recognised immediately, except for the cases when the loss is compensated by lower than market prices for lease payments in the future. The loss is then deferred and it is amortised in proportion to the lease payments over a period, during which the assets are expected to be operated. If the sales price exceeds the fair value, a deferral is made for the amount by which the fair value is exceeded and it is amortised over a period, during which the assets are expected to be operated.
Grants and subsidies (hereinafter "Grants") received in the form of non-current assets or intended for the purchase, construction or other acquisition of non-current assets are considered as asset-related grants (mainly received from the EU and other structural funds). Assets received free of charge are also allocated to this group of grants. The amount of the grants related to assets is recognised in the financial statements as used in parts according to the depreciation of the assets associated with this grant. In the statement of comprehensive income, a relevant expense account is reduced by the amount of grant amortisation.
Grants received as a compensation for the expenses or unearned income of the current or previous reporting period, also, all the grants, which are not grants related to assets, are considered as grants related to income (mainly received from the EU and other structural funds). The income-related grants are recognised as used in parts to the extent of the expenses incurred during the reporting period or unearned income to be compensated by that grant.
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted in order to present the most reasonable current estimate.
According to the collective agreement, each employee leaving the Company at the retirement age is entitled to a one-time payment. Employment benefits are recognised in the statement of financial position and reflect the present value of future payments at the date of the statement of financial position. The above mentioned employment benefit obligation is calculated based on actuarial assumptions, using the projected unit credit method. Present value of the non-current obligation to employees is determined by discounting estimated future cash flows using the discount rate which reflects the interest rate of the Government bonds of the same currency and similar maturity as the employment benefits. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as incurred.
The revenue is recognised and the liability is calculated on the basis of actuarial valuations using the projected unit credit method. The value of the non-current liability is determined by discounting the estimated future cash flows, based on the elimination of intercompany sales in the government securities accounts.
Financial assets are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, whenever it is probable that the Group will not collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of loans or receivables, impairment is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. The reversal of impairment losses previously recognised is recorded when the decrease in impairment loss can be justified by an event occurring after the write-down. Such reversal is recorded in the statement of comprehensive income. However, the increased carrying amount is only recognised to the extent it does not exceed the amortised cost that would have been had the impairment not been recognised.
Other assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Reversal of impairment losses recognised in prior years is recorded when there is an indication that the impairment losses recognised for the asset no longer exist or have decreased. The reversal is accounted for in the same caption of the statement of comprehensive income as the impairment loss.
Subsequent events that provide additional information about the Group's position at the date of the statement of financial position (adjusting events) are reflected in the financial statements. Subsequent events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.
When preparing the financial statements, assets and liabilities, as well as revenue and expenses are not set off, except the cases when a certain International Financial Reporting Standard specifically requires such set-off.
The Group's sole business segment identified for the management purposes is the production of refrigerators and specialised equipment, therefore this note does not include any disclosures on operating segments as they are the same as information provided by the Group in these financial statements.

Starting from 30 September 2016 the Group and the Company have begun to revalue non-current assets, including buildings, structures, machinery and equipment as well as other production equipment. The valuation of non-current assets for financial reporting purposes has been carried out by external, independent valuator, having appropriate recognised professional qualifications and recent experience in the location and category of the property being valued. The valuation of real estate was based on the comparable method by comparing sales prices of similar real estate in Lithuania. The valuation of machinery and equipment and other non-current assets was based on comparable or depreciated replacement cost (DRC) methods. The fair value of the property was determined by an independent property appraiser, UAB Corporation Matininkai.
Building and structures were attributed to Level 3 of fair value hierarchy. Under the Market method the sale transactions or offer examples in respect of the real estate and constructions were observed in the market. The comparable real estate objects were selected due to the similarity with the object being measured with respect to size, nature, location, intended use, condition and other parameters. The valuation of real estate required adjustments to reflect differences between the objects being measured and comparable objects.
Machinery and equipment, vehicles and other assets were also attributed to Level 3 of fair value hierarchy. Part of the machinery was valued based on at least two or three comparable inputs. Comparable inputs selected were similar to the assets subject to valuation. This method was used for the measurement of a part of equipment in respect of which sale or offer market data was available. The remaining part of machinery and equipment were valued by DRC method. The replacement values of these non-current assets were based on their acquisition costs and comparable price changes provided by the Statistics Department. When establishing physical obsolescence, it is assumed that the value of property being measured is written off in proportion to the number of years. The assets subject to valuation were classified into categories in respect of which the useful life up to 20 years depending on the group of assets was established based on the expert opinion of the valuator.
Assets were valued under this scheme:
The increase in value of non-current tangible assets was registered by increasing the acquisition cost of the asset and was accounted as follows as at 30 September 2018:
| The Company | Book value | Revalued amounts | Revaluation surplus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buildings and structures | 5,404 | 5,975 | 571 |
| Machinery and equipment | 8,089 | 9,160 | 1,071 |
| Vehicles and other assets | 1,435 | 1,759 | 324 |
| Total | 14,928 | 16,894 | 1,966 |
The useful life terms of non-current material assets, in years:

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Land and buildings | 49 | 22 | 26 | |
| Machinery and equipment | 6 | 1 | 8 | |
| Vehicles | 6 | 1 | 4 | |
| Other plant, devices, tools and equipment | 5 | 0.5 | 5 | |
| Other tangible assets | 5 | 0.5 | 8 |
The new useful lifetimes for assessing depreciation have been applied since 1 October 2016.
Depreciation charge of the Group's property, plant and equipment and investment property for the period of three months of 2024 amounted to EUR 386 thousand (EUR 420 thousand respectively for the same period of 2023). After the assessment of amortization of grants, the amount of EUR 380 thousand in 2024 (EUR 403 thousand in 2023) was included into production costs. The remaining amount of EUR 6 thousand in 2024 (EUR 17 thousand in 2023) was included into administration expenses in the Group's profit or loss.
As at 31 March 2024 buildings of the Group and the Company with the carrying amount of EUR 4,662 thousand (as at 31 December 2023 – EUR 4,713 thousand respectively), the Group's and the Company's machinery and equipment with the carrying amount of EUR 4,738 thousand (as at 31 December 2023 – EUR 5,018 thousand respectively) were pledged to the assignee of the loan, a related party (Note 21).
