The Telekom Slovenije Group is a trustworthy partner to its users, with whom it creates a society of opportunities.
The Telekom Slovenije Group inspires its users with innovative technologies. We open up new professional and personal avenues for them, and together cultivate an environment for the development of a society of opportunities. With open, flexible, and scalable products and services, and attractive content, we continuously provide our users with effective, useful, reliable, entertaining and constantly evolving tools for business and leisure.
Our guiding principle is a satisfied customer. We understand and respect their wishes and needs, and provide services that are simple, useful and tailored to those needs. Whenever they need information, advice or assistance, we are there to provide it.
Through quality, reliability, innovation and flexibility, we offer our users the freedom to combine and intertwine our services, packages, content and products.
Our actions are ethical, heartfelt, responsible and sustainable with respect to the society and environment in which we operate. We encourage the development of knowledge, the exchange of experiences, the creation of innovative solutions, and operations that are people and environmentally friendly.
Telekom Slovenije Group employees work in a creative environment. We achieve excellent results because we are connected to one another, proactive, experienced and value an entrepreneurial mindset. We respect our agreements and keep our promises.
In accordance with its Strategic Business Plan for the period 2015 to 2019, Telekom Slovenije Group has already carried out activities aimed at consolidation on certain markets. Activities will continue in the future, either through expansion or divestment on specific markets.
Telekom Slovenije will strengthen its market position by expanding the fibre optic access network, which will provide users high-speed internet access and a superior user experience in terms of broadband content. Significant investments in fibre optic access are thus planned in the coming years.
Through the optimisation of business processes and the IT infrastructure, Telekom Slovenije will transform itself into a dynamic company that will actively adapt to the demands and needs of its users.
We will increase our market share in the broadband and IPTV connection segment by accelerating construction of fibre optic access networks, through a range of convergent packages and by expanding the range of services outside the basic telecommunications activity.
The Telekom Slovenije Group will continue to optimise labour costs and ensure the optimal number of employees, taking into account the needs of the work process at individual companies.
We will offer our users the option of leasing a wide range of services in one place. By increasing revenues from ICT services, we will also expand our operations to new areas such as energy, insurance, smart home services, e-m-health, e-m-citizen, e-m-security and e-m-mobility services, big data services, etc.
The financial stability of the Telekom Slovenije Group will be achieved by securing sources to refinance bonds in a timely manner and by securing other sources of financing required to maintain liquidity, by monitoring trends on the financial markets, by further centralising the cash flow of the Group, by establishing effective corporate governance mechanisms, and through the effective management of working capital.
The quality of services is one of the comparative advantages of Telekom Slovenije Group companies. We will continue to ensure quality through constant development and a comprehensive range of the most state-of-theart services and solutions.
The principles of sustainable development are built into the operations, products, services and content of Telekom Slovenije Group companies, while we responsibly manage the economic, social and environmental impacts of our operations. To that end, we actively identify opportunities where we can contribute to the development of the social and economic environment in which we operate through various resources.

Key risks are presented below by individual company and market.
• To manage risks associated with short-term liquidity, Telekom Slovenije has established an effective system for managing and planning cash flows that facilitates the timely identification of potential shortfalls in liquid funds and decisions regarding measures. Short-term imbalances in cash flows are managed through short-term credit lines at domestic banks and transaction account overdraft limits. In June 2016 Telekom Slovenije issued new bonds on the domestic market in the amount of EUR 100 million for the purpose of financing investments. The issue of bonds and the raising of a new loan significantly improved the structure of sources of financing and thus reduced the associated risks.
• Revenue risks associated with public administration projects are managed by strengthening efforts to secure new projects on the external market.

• The Slovenian Advertising Chamber presents Telekom Slovenije with the 2015 Advertiser of the Year award. Telekom Slovenije receives the award for its professional, innovative and original work in the area of market communications.
The consolidated financial statements of the Telekom Slovenije Group and the financial statements of the parent company Telekom Slovenije for the reported period and the comparable period last year were compiled in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC).
The condensed interim financial statements for the period ending 30 June 2016 were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, and must be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements compiled for the financial year ending 31 December 2015. The financial statements for the period January to June 2016, and the financial statements for the comparable period January to June 2015 have not been audited. The financial statements as at 31 December 2015 have been audited and adjusted for the change in accounting policy.
The accounting policies used in the compilation of the interim condensed financial statements are the same as those applied in the compilation of the financial statements for the financial year ending 31 December 2015, with the exception of an accounting policy governing the recording of sales commissions that was amended by the Group on 1 January 2016.
The Group now records the costs of sales commissions for newly concluded subscriber agreements as an intangible asset. Prior to the change, the Group recorded sales commissions under the costs of services.
IAS 8 allows companies to amend their accounting policy if the application of that policy ensures more reliable and relevant information regarding the effects of transactions, other business events and balances on their financial standing, financial results and cash flows.
The Telekom Slovenije Group followed IAS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, and adjusted its financial statements for previous periods in accordance with the requirements of IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements. The change to the accounting policy was applied retroactively. The Group therefore recalculated financial statements for previous periods from 1 May 2014 on.
The impact of the change to the accounting policy on the financial statements of Telekom Slovenije and thus the consolidated financial statements were as follows:
| Balance as at 1 January 2015 | EUR thousand |
|---|---|
| Increase in the value of intangible assets | 4,332 |
| Increase in the value of deferred tax assets | 93 |
| Change in retained earnings | 4,425 |
| Balance as at 31 December 2015 | |
| Increase in the value of intangible assets | 7,204 |

The financial statements have been compiled on the historical cost basis, except for derivatives and availablefor-sale financial assets, which are disclosed at fair value.
The compilation of the financial statements requires of management certain estimates, assessments and assumptions that affect the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of Group companies, the disclosure of contingent liabilities as at the balance-sheet date and the amount of revenues and expenses of companies in the period ending on the balance-sheet date.
Management's estimates include the following items:
deferred taxes,
international services provisions and contingent liabilities,
Management's estimates were unchanged during the accounting period, except for the depreciation period for specific exchanges and cabinets at base stations with dependent equipment. The effect of the change is higher depreciation costs for property, plant and equipment in the amount of EUR 1,437 thousand.
There was no authorised capital or conditional share capital increase during the reporting period.
The operations of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije are not seasonal.

The Group has two operating segments. Segment reporting is based on the internal reporting system used by management in the decision-making process. Geographical regions are defined as operating segments, namely Slovenia and other countries. The criterion for segment reporting is the registered office where an activity is performed.
Segment reporting is based on the basic financial statements of the Telekom Slovenije Group. Sales transactions between segments are effected at market values. Intra-group transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process, and included among eliminations and adjustments.
The Group does not disclose finance income and costs by segment, as the Group's financing is centralised and conducted at the level of the parent company.

The costs of services were up 2% on the same period last year. The costs of the following items were down: multimedia content, maintenance and leasing of property, plant and equipment, sales incentives, trade fairs, advertising, sponsorship and entertainment, banking services, insurance premiums and refunds of work-related costs. The costs of other services, telecommunication services, leased lines, intellectual and personal services, sales commissions and communication services were up.
Operating profit (EBIT) was down 17% or EUR 4,806 thousand on the same period last year to stand at EUR 23,115 thousand.
Finance income was down 34% on the same period in 2015, primarily owing to a decline in other finance income.
Finance costs were up EUR 10 thousand on the same period in 2015.
Net profit in the amount of EUR 23,858 thousand was down 24% or EUR 7,369 thousand on the period January to June 2015.
Intangible assets primarily comprise concessions, licences, sales commissions and computer programmes. Intangible assets were up by the total amount of EUR 21,920 thousand, primarily as the result of an increase in assets under construction. Commitments for intangible assets totalled EUR 7,205 thousand as at 30 June 2016.
Property, plant and equipment accounted for 43% of the Company's total assets. The decrease in property, plant and equipment in the amount of EUR 25,208 thousand was primarily the result of depreciation charged during the accounting period in the amount of EUR 47,536 thousand, while new acquisitions totalled EUR 24,467 thousand. Commitments for property, plant and equipment totalled EUR 17,748 thousand as at 30 June 2016.
The merger of Debitel with Telekom Slovenije was entered in the companies register on 1 June 2016. The Company purchased Debitel on 14 October 2015. Given that Telekom Slovenije was the 100% owner of Debitel, the aforementioned transaction represents a case of legal restructuring without the exchange of economic sources with third parties and thus has no immediate economic consequences for Telekom Slovenije's shareholders.
The calculation date of the merger was 1 January 2016. The Company thus recognises the merger in its financial statements as at the aforementioned date, i.e. for the entire reporting period. Mutual receivables and liabilities between the two companies were therefore eliminated.
All of the assets and liabilities of Debitel were transferred to Telekom Slovenije under the merger agreement, while Telekom Slovenije entered into all legal relationships as Debitel's universal legal successor.
As a result of the aforementioned transfer, Telekom Slovenije recognised intangible assets (a list of customers valued at EUR 5,340 thousand and goodwill in the amount of EUR 3,602 thousand) as at the merger date.

The most significant financial risks are credit risk, short-term and long-term liquidity risk and interest-rate risk. The Group assesses exposure to specific types of financial risks and implements measures to control those risks based on their effects on cash flows and finance costs. Exposure to currency risk is assessed as low. Hedging instruments are thus not used. Presented below are the significant financial risks that the Group regularly assesses. It also verifies the appropriateness of measures to manage those risks.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if a subscriber or contracting party fails to settle their obligations in full or fails to settle them at all.
Maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying amount of financial assets. The situation as at 30 June 2016 was as follows:

Credit risk or the risk of counterparty default derives from default by subscribers (retail) and by operators (wholesale). The highest exposure to credit risk is seen in trade receivables. Trade receivables amounted to EUR 136,696 thousand as at 30 June 2016, a decrease of EUR 7,960 thousand relative to the end of 2015. Telekom Slovenije's receivables make up the majority of the Group's trade and other receivables.
Telekom Slovenije Group companies have introduced risk management procedures that include the monitoring of business partners' credit ratings, collateral for receivables, the monitoring of high-traffic customers and debt collection. Debt collection activities are carried out according to a predefined timetable, while external collection efforts are carried out through specialised agencies. Prior authorisation is required at Telekom Slovenije for the entry into and amendments to subscriber agreements, while authorisation during the sale of mobile devices is being introduced. Larger companies have implemented a Fraud Management System (FMS) as an additional credit risk management measure, while companies with a large number of postpaid subscribers have also introduced a Credit Management System (CMS).
Credit risk is assessed as manageable on account of procedures introduced to manage receivables.
The Group also monitors credit risk in other areas of operations. It is also exposed to risks associated with loans granted to third parties and employees, and in connection with investments in shares and participating interests. Risks associated with loans are managed by including various collateral instruments in loan agreements, while risks associated with financial investments are mitigated by monitoring the operations and credit ratings of the issuers of financial instruments.

Liquidity risk is associated with a deficit in liquid funds and thus the Group's ability to settle its obligations at maturity.
The Group's liquidity is ensured through the management of cash and working capital, the planning and management of cash flows, and through short-term and long-term financing within the Group. Liquidity risk at the Group level is managed by the parent company, which plans and monitors subsidiaries' financing needs, and provides them the sources they need. Short-term imbalances in cash flows are managed through short-term credit lines at domestic banks and transaction account overdraft limits. Liquidity reserves totalled EUR 123.6 million at the end of June.
Debt is relatively low at the Group level, which represents a sound basis for achieving an appropriate credit rating and thus lower borrowing costs.
The majority of the Group's financial liabilities relate to two bond issues in the total amount of EUR 400 million. The first issue in the amount of EUR 300 million falls due for payment in December 2016. Telekom Slovenije has already secured the necessary funds to refinance the aforementioned issue via a long-term syndicated loan in the amount of EUR 300 million, and thus eliminated refinancing risks and exploited the favourable lending conditions on the banking market. The associated loan agreement was signed on 31 March 2016. The loan is specific-purpose, and will be drawn down in December 2016 when the above-mentioned bonds mature.
In June 2016 Telekom Slovenije issued new bonds on the domestic market in the amount of EUR 100 million for the purpose of financing investments. The issue of bonds and the raising of a new loan significantly improved the structure of sources of financing and thus reduced the associated risks.

Maturity profile of Telekom Slovenije Group's liabilities as at 30 June 2016 and 31 December 2015 based on contractual non-discounted payments
Interest-rate risk is the risk of the negative effect of a change in market interest rates on the operations of a specific company. The Group's exposure to interest-rate risk as at 30 June 2016 derives from a potential fall in the EURIBOR reference interest rate, as Group companies have more interest-sensitive assets than liabilities.
The majority (or 97.3%) of the Group's interest-bearing liabilities are accounted for by issued bonds with a fixed coupon rate. Other liabilities from loans received bear variable interest rates tied to the 1-month, 3-month or 6 month EURIBOR. The Group does not hedge its exposure to interest-rate risk.
In order to hedge against a rise in reference interest rates, Telekom Slovenije pursues a target ratio of variable to fixed or hedged financial liabilities of at least 50% of liabilities with a fixed or hedged interest-rate. Telekom Slovenije will conclude an interest-rate hedging agreement within 45 days following the drawdown of the loan in December 2016 in the amount of EUR 300 million in an amount equal to at least one half of the five-year and seven-year tranches, for the entire duration of each tranche.

*Financial receivables took into account the gross value of loans given, exclusive of impairment.
The table does not include financial instruments that do not bear interest or instruments bearing a fixed interest rate, as the latter are not exposed to interest-rate risk.

The key objectives of managing the Group's capital are ensuring capital adequacy and thus long-term liquidity, ensuring the financial stability of the Group in an attempt to secure the best possible credit rating for the financing of operations, and ensuring the continued development of the Group and thus the achievement of the highest possible value for shareholders.
The Group uses the net financial debt to equity and equity to total assets ratios to monitor changes in capital. The Group's net financial debt include loans received and other financial liabilities, less current financial assets and cash and cash equivalents, including short-term deposits. The Group also complies with the financial commitments set out in loan agreements when making decisions regarding the management of capital.
