Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


1.Background and business of the Company

(a)Ronson Development SE (‘the Company’), formerly named Ronson Europe N.V., is an European Company with its statutory seat in Warsaw, Poland. The registered office is located at al. Komisji Edukacji Narodowej 57. The Company was incorporated in the Netherlands on 18 June 2007 as Ronson Europe N.V. with statutory seat in Rotterdam. During 2018, the Company changed its name and was transformed into an European Company (SE) and, effectively as of 31 October 2018, transferred its registered office of the Company from the Netherlands to Poland. Address of the Company’s registered office is the same as domicile of the Company.

The Company (together with its subsidiaries, ‘the Group’) is active in the development and sale of residential units, primarily apartments, in multi-family residential real-estate projects to individual customers in Poland. The Company prepared Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020, which was authorized for issue on 10 March 2021.


The shares of the Company are traded on the Warsaw Stock Exchange since 5 November 2007. According to publicly available information, as at 31 December 2020, 66.06% of the outstanding shares are controlled indirectly by Amos Luzon Development and Energy Group Ltd. (‘A. Luzon Group’) and 0.91% of the shares are held by the Company. The remaining 33.03% of the outstanding shares are held by other investors including Nationale Nederlanden Powszechne Towarzystwo Emerytalne S.A. and Metlife Powszechne Towarzystwo Emerytalne S.A.. The number of shares held by the investors is equal to the number of votes, as there are no privileged shares issued by the Company. It shall be noted that as at 31 December 2020, the Company held 1,489,235 own shares (0.91%) and, in accordance with art. 364 § 2 of the Code of Commercial Companies, it does not exercise voting rights from own shares.

As at 31 December 2020, the Groups' market capitalization was below the value of net assets. Although, the Company strongly believes that this is a temporary situation due to many different factors, including low liquidity of the Company’s shares listed on WSE, Management took appropriate steps to review the Company’s assets to determine if there is any additional write-down required and found no basis for it. Management verified that the forecast margin potential in respect of the inventory is positive. Therefore, no indicators for potential additional impairment have been identified.


(b)The details of the entities whose financial statements have been included in these Consolidated Financial Statements, the year of incorporation and the percentage of ownership and voting rights directly or indirectly held by the Company as at 31 December 2020 and as at 31 December 2019, are presented below and on the following page.

The projects managed by the entities are in various stages of development ranging from being in the process of acquiring land for development to projects which are completed or near completion.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

2.Basis of preparation and measurement


(a)Basis of preparation and statement of compliance

These Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU (‘IFRS’). In light of the nature of the Group’s activities, the IFRSs applied by the Group are not different from the IFRSs endorsed by the European Union, which are effective for the financial year ended 31 December 2020. The Group is aware about new standards and interpretations that have been issued but have not yet become effective. Information about standards and interpretations were presented below.


The Consolidated Financial Statements were authorized by the Boards of Directors of Ronson Development SE on 10 March 2021. These Consolidated Financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Group is a going concern, meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of its operations. The Company prepared Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020 in both English and Polish languages, while the Polish version is binding.

New and amended standards adopted by the Group

The Group has applied the following standards and amendments for the first time for their annual reporting
period commencing 1 January 2020:

• Definition of Material – amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8

• Definition of a Business – amendments to IFRS 3

• Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7

• Revised Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting


The Group also elected to adopt the following amendments early:

• Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018-2020 Cycle.

The above standards, amendments and improvements do not have any material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group and should not have any material impact on current and future periods.

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for
31 December 2020 reporting periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.

(b)Basis of measurement

The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for investment property which was measured at fair value. The methods used to measure fair values for the purpose of preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements are discussed further in Note 3(q), Note 16 and Note 32.


(c)Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the ‘functional currency’) being Polish Zloty (‘PLN’). Polish Zloty is the presentation currency of the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group, and is also the functional currency of the parent company.

The Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in thousands of Polish Zloty, except when otherwise indicated.


Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


2.Basis of preparation and measurement


(d)Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing-basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements, are described in the following notes:

Note 16 – Investment property

Note 18 – Deferred tax asset recognition

Note 19 – Inventory and residential land bank

Note 31 – Provisions

Note 34 – Commitments and contingencies

The Company conducts residential units projects and developing activities in dedicated SPVs. The Company reflects in its Consolidated Financial Statements the activities and transactions related to such projects based on the substance rather than legal form. Such transactions are accounted for in accordance with IAS 2 and IFRS 15, whereby inventory is sold and revenue should be recognized after the criteria are met.

Recognition of revenue

The revenue from the sale of real estate (residential units, commercial units, etc.) is recognised at the moment when control over the real estate is transferred to the customer of said real estate together with the transfer of significant risks and rewards typical to the ownership rights. According to the Company’s judgement this occurs at the moment of handover of the real estate to the customer, which is based on a handover document signed by both parties and subject to the condition that the customer has paid 100% of the sale price for the real estate.


Estimation of net realizable value for inventory and residential land bank

Inventory and residential land bank is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value (NRV). NRV for completed inventory property (Finished goods) is assessed with reference to market conditions and prices existing at the reporting date and is determined by the Group having taken suitable external advice and in the light of recent market transactions. NRV in respect of work in progress and residential land bank is assessed with reference to market prices at the reporting date for similar completed property, less estimated costs to complete construction and less an estimate of the time value of money to the date of completion.

Valuation of investment property

The fair value of the investment property is determined by independent real estate valuation experts based on the discounted cash flow approach. The determination of the fair value of the investment property requires the use of estimates such as future cash flows from assets (such as lettings, tenants’ profiles, future revenue streams, capital values of fixtures and fittings, any environmental matters and the overall repair and condition of the property) and discount rates applicable to those assets.

Valuation of lease liability

According to the IFRS 16 standard that was implemented by the Company the lease payments shall be discounted using the rate implicit in the lease contract, or if this rate cannot be readily determined, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company decided to use incremental borrowing rate (‘IBR’) that was determined based on reference rate adjusted by margin. The IBR rate was built based on reference rate (30 years state bonds quotation) increased by margin which represents higher credit risk of the Company due to worse ratios, risk related to unusual length of potential financing and no possibility to establish security for such long-term financing.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

2.Basis of preparation and measurement

(d) Use of estimates and judgments

Deferred tax asset recognition

Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses and deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax strategies.

Uncertain tax treatment

Regulations regarding VAT, corporate profits tax and social security contributions are subject to frequent changes. These changes result in there being little point of reference and few established precedents that may be followed. The binding regulations also contain uncertainties, resulting in differences in opinion regarding the legal interpretation of tax regulations both between government bodies, and between government bodies and companies.

Tax and other settlements may be subject to inspection by administrative bodies authorized to impose high penalties and fines, and any additional taxation liabilities calculated as a result must be paid together with high interest. The above circumstances mean that tax exposure is greater in Poland than in countries that have a more established taxation system. Accordingly, the amounts shown in the financial statements may change at a later date as a result of the amend to the final decision of the tax authorities.

On 15 July 2016, amendments were made to the Tax Ordinance to introduce the provisions of General Anti-Avoidance Rules (GAAR). GAAR are targeted to prevent origination and use of fictitious legal structures set up to avoid payment of tax in Poland. GAAR define tax evasion as an activity performed mainly with a view to realising tax gains, which is contrary, under given circumstances, to the subject and objective of the tax law. In accordance with GAAR, an activity does not bring about tax gains, if its modus operandi was false. Any instances of (i) unreasonable division of an operation (ii) involvement of agents despite lack of economic rationale for such involvement, (iii) mutually exclusive or mutually compensating elements, as well as (iv) other activities similar to those referred to earlier may be treated as a hint of artificial activities subject to GAAR. New regulations will require considerably greater judgment in assessing tax effects of individual transactions.

The GAAR clause should be applied to the transactions performed after clause effective date and to the transactions which were performed prior to GAAR clause effective date, but for which after the clause effective date tax gains were realised or continue to be realised. The implementation of the above provisions will enable Polish tax authority challenge such arrangements realised by tax remitters as restructuring or reorganization.

The Group accounts for current and deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the requirements of IAS 12 Income taxes, based on taxable profit (tax loss), taxable base, carry-forward of unused tax losses and carry-forward of unused tax credits, and tax rates, while considering the assessment of uncertainty related to tax settlements. If uncertainty exists as to whether and to what extent tax authority will accept individual tax treatments of made transactions, the Group discloses these settlements while accounting for uncertainty assessment. Further details on taxes are disclosed in Note 14 and Note 18.



Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

2.Basis of preparation and measurement

(e)Basis of consolidation

These Consolidated Financial Statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as at 31 December 2020. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if, and only if, the Group has:

power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);

exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee;

the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation. A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the related assets (including goodwill), liabilities, non-controlling interest and other components of equity while any resultant gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss. Any investment retained is recognized at fair value.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same period as the financial statement of parent. The Group entities keep books of accounts in accordance with accounting policies specified in the Accounting Act dated 29 September 1994 (‘the Accounting Act’) with subsequent amendments and the regulations issued based on that Act (all together: ‘Polish Accounting Standards’). These consolidated financial statements include a number of adjustments not included in the books of account of the Group entities, which were made in order to bring the financial statements of those entities in conformity with IFRSs as adopted by EU.

Until 31 of October 2018, Ronson Development SE kept its books of accounts in accordance with accounting policies required by the Dutch law. On 31 October 2018, the Company transferred its registered office from the Netherlands to Poland. On 20 December 2018, the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company adopted a resolution regarding the preparation of the financial statements of Ronson Development SE in accordance with IFRS, starting with the financial statements for the financial year 2018.

Where property is acquired, via corporate acquisitions or otherwise, the management considers the substance of the assets and activities of the acquired entity in determining whether the acquisition represents the acquisition of a business or assets. Where such acquisitions are not judged to be an acquisition of a business, they are not treated as business combinations. Rather, the cost to acquire the corporate entity is allocated between the identifiable assets and liabilities of the entity based on their relative fair values at the acquisition date. Accordingly, no goodwill or additional deferred taxation arises. Otherwise, acquisitions are accounted for as business combinations.


Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


3.Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently in all periods presented in these Consolidated Financial Statements.

(a) Foreign currency

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Group entities at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions using:

the purchase or selling rate of the bank whose services are used by the Group – in case of foreign currency sales or purchase transactions, as well in the case as of the debt or liability payment transactions;

the average rate specified for a given currency by the National Bank of Poland as on the transaction date, unless a customs declaration or other binding document indicates another rate – in case of other transactions.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency spot rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions.

(b) Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenues from the sale of residential units are recognized when (or as) the Group has satisfied a performance obligation by transferring a promised good to a customer. A residential unit is transferred when (or as) the customer obtains control of the residential unit (i.e. upon signing of the protocol of technical acceptance and transfer of the key to the unit and payment of the entire amount resulting from the sale agreement), after receiving valid occupancy permit for the building.

Advances received related to pre-sales of residential units, which represent deferred income, are deferred when they do not meet the criteria to be recognized as revenue. When they subsequently meet these criteria, they are recognized as revenue.

(c)Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument to another entity.

Financial assets

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient, the Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus transaction costs. In the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under IFRS 15.

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortized cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level.

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:

Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments)

Financial assets at fair value through OCI with recycling of cumulative gains and losses (debt instruments)

Financial assets designated at fair value through OCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition (equity instruments)

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss



Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

3.Significant accounting policies

(c)Financial instruments

For the Group the first category is most relevant. Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest (EIR) method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.

The Group recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.

ECLs are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12-months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).

For trade receivables and contract assets, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Group does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Group has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

Loans and borrowings is the category most relevant to the Group. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.

Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit or loss.

(d)Property and equipment

(i)Recognition and measurement

Items of property and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labor, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located.

When significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced in intervals, the Group recognizes such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives and depreciation, respectively. Likewise, when a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognized in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income as incurred.

(ii)Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of each component of an item of property and equipment.

The estimated useful life of property and equipment, depending on the class of asset, ranges from 2 to 40 years. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Land is not depreciated.

When parts of an item of property and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property and equipment.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reassessed at the reporting date, and adjusted prospectively since the beginning of the following year, if appropriate.

(e)Leases

The Group recognizes assets and liabilities resulting from leases with a period exceeding 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. The only material lease agreements with a period exceeding 12 months into which the Group has entered, are the rights of perpetual usufruct of real estate properties.


Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

3.Significant accounting policies

(e)Leases

The method of valuation and presentation of lease in the Group's financial statements

The Group recognizes a lease liability, measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application. The Group recognizes the respective right-of-use asset at an amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments recognized immediately before the date of initial application. The Group has decided to present right-of-use assets under the same item in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, under which the relevant underlying assets would be presented if they were owned by the Group. The lease liabilities are presented separately from other liabilities in long term liabilities with respect to lease of investment properties and short term liabilities with respect to lease of inventory.

The right of perpetual usufruct of land related to residential projects:

Assets - was recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position under "Inventory".

Liabilities - was presented in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as a short term under "Lease liabilities related to perpetual usufruct of land".

Costs - the Group depreciates the right of use asset on straight line basis over the lease period. On the other hand the Group recognizes finance expense to reflect interest expense on lease liability. Those costs are capitalized to Inventory as long as development project qualifies for capitalization.

Derecognition – at the moment occupancy permit is issued the Group becomes the owner of the land (based on The Act of July 20, 2018 on transformation of the right of perpetual usufruct of land built for housing purposes into the ownership right of these lands). Since then the Group is no longer liable for perpetual usufruct fees but pays conversion fees. At the moment occupancy permit is issued and revenue from the sale of residential units is recognized (when the performance obligations are satisfied and when the customer obtains control of the good, i.e. upon signing of the protocol of technical acceptance and the transfer of the key to the buyer of the residential unit and total payment obtained) the liability for conversion fee and related asset are reclassified to other payables and other receivables and are presented under "Trade and other payables and accrued expenses" and "Trade and other receivables and prepayments" respectively. The Group is legally released from the obligation to pay conversion fees only upon signing the final notary deed for transferring the ownership of unit together with share in the land to the client. Carrying amounts of receivables and payables are derecognized from Consolidated Statement of Financial Position once final notary deeds are signed with clients.

Despite the fact that based on the Group’s core business the operating cycle of inventory is on average 5 years i.e. plots of land are purchased for the purpose of the development of residential projects and transferring the ownership of the units together with share in the land to the client. Under IFRS 16 the Group is not allowed to consider the period for which the Group expects to be the usufructuary despite the fact that the period is quite precisely known. Therefore once lease liabilities are recognized, the Group is required to discount all future payments resulting from the right of perpetual usufruct for the period for which the right is granted to individual properties (it can be up to 99 years). Following the requirements of IFRS 16 the Group recognize lease liabilities of which majority will not be paid by the Group.

The right of perpetual usufruct of investment properties:

Assets - was recognized in the balance sheet under "Investment properties".

Liabilities - was presented in the balance sheet as a long term under "Lease liabilities related to perpetual usufruct of investment property".

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

3. Significant accounting policies

(e)Leases

Costs - the Group fair values the right of use asset at each balance sheet date and recognizes finance expense to reflect interest expense on lease liability.

(f)Investment property

Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequently to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the reporting date. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they arise. 

Investment properties are derecognized when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income in the period of derecognition.

Transfers are made to or from investment property only when there is a change in use. For a transfer from investment property to owner occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequently accounting is the fair value at the date of change in use. If owner occupied property becomes an investment property, the Group accounts for such property in accordance with the policy stated under property, plant and equipment up to the date of change in use.

(g) Residential land bank and Inventories

The Group estimates that an operating cycle for projects/stage of a big project lasts for about 5 years. The operating cycle is divided into two phases: (i) the pre-construction preparation phase lasting about 3 years (obtaining necessary site permits, environmental decisions or construction permits, designing, etc.), and (ii) construction phase lasting also about 2 years.

When a project is within the operating cycle the project presented as short-term assets under inventory, in other cases the project presented as long-term under Residential land bank.

(i)Inventory

Inventory is measured at cost increased by capitalized costs incurred relating to the preparation of the projects for construction, in the value not higher than the net realizable value. The cost of inventory includes expenditure incurred relating to the construction of a project.

Inventory comprises residential real estate projects to individual customers.


Costs relating to the construction of a project are included in inventory of residential units as follows:

costs incurred relating to projects or a stage of a project which are not available for sale (work in progress),

costs incurred relating to units unsold associated with a project.

Project construction costs include:

a)land or leasehold rights for land,

b)construction costs paid to the general contractor building the residential project,

c)planning and design costs,

d)perpetual usufruct fees and real estate taxes incurred during the period of construction,

e)borrowing costs to the extent they are directly attributable to the development of the project,

f)professional fees attributable to the development of the project,

g)construction overheads and other directly related costs.

h)lease assets, see note 3 (e).

Inventory is recognized as a cost of sales in the statement of comprehensive income when the sale of residential units is recognized.


Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

3.Significant accounting policies

(g)Residential land bank and Inventories

(ii) Residential land bank

Long-term part of the land bank (if a commencement of construction phase is not planned within the period of 3 years from the reporting date) is presented in non-current assets of the consolidated statement of financial position, as “Residential land bank”, whereas short-term part of the land bank is presented in current assets of the consolidated statement of financial position, in inventory balance. Residential land bank is measured at cost increased by capitalized costs incurred relating to the preparation of the projects for construction, in the value not higher than the net realizable value.

(h)Equity

(i)Share capital

Share capital includes the proceeds received from the issue of ordinary shares on the nominal value in exchange for cash.

(ii)Share premium

Share premium includes the excess of proceeds received from the issue of shares over the nominal value of shares. Shares issuance costs are deducted from the share premium.

(iii)Treasury shares

Own shares that are reacquired (treasury shares) are recognized at cost and deducted from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Group’s own equity instruments.

(i)Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists then the asset’s or a cash generating unit’s recoverable amount is estimated.

An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or a cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to 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.


Impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.

(j)Provisions

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.






Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

3.Significant accounting policies

(k)Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the inventory of properties which necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective assets.

The interest capitalized is calculated using the Group’s weighted average cost of borrowings after adjusting for borrowings associated with specific developments. Where borrowings are associated with specific developments, the amount capitalized equals the gross interest incurred on those borrowings. Interest is capitalized as from the commencement of the development work until the date of completion. The capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended if there are prolonged periods when development activity is interrupted.

(l)Income tax expense

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Current tax expense is calculated according to tax regulations in effect in the jurisdiction in which the individual companies are domiciled.

Deferred income tax is provided, using the balance sheet method, for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, and for tax losses carried forward, except for the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit.


Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. At each reporting date deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

(m)Earnings per share

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. The computations of the basic earnings per share are determined on the basis of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted earnings per share are determined by adjusting the statement of comprehensive income and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise share options granted and rights to obtain shares by employees.

(n)Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial positions comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, except for collateralized deposits.

For the purpose of the consolidated statement cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.



Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

3.Significant accounting policies

(o)Investment in joint ventures

A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

Under the equity method, the investment in a joint venture is initially recognized at cost. The carrying amount of the investment is adjusted to recognize changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the joint venture since the acquisition date. Upon making an investment in an associate or joint venture, the amount by which the costs of such investment exceed the value of the Group’s share in the net fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities of this entity is recognized as goodwill and included in the carrying amount of the underlying investment.

The statement of profit or loss reflects the Group’s share of the results of operations of the joint venture. Any change in Other comprehensive income of joint ventures are presented as part of the Group’s Other comprehensive income. In addition, when there has been a change recognized directly in the equity of the joint venture, the Group recognizes its share of any changes, when applicable, in the statement of changes in equity. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the joint venture.

The financial statements of the joint venture are prepared for the same reporting period as the Group. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group.

After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognize an impairment loss on its investment in joint venture. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the joint venture is impaired. If there is such evidence, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the joint venture and its carrying value, and then recognizes the loss as ‘Share of profit/(loss) of a joint venture’ in the statement of profit or loss.

Upon loss of joint control over the joint venture, the Group measures and recognizes any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the joint venture upon loss of joint control and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in profit or loss.

(p)Employee benefits

Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognized as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income as incurred.

The Company’s subsidiaries are required, under applicable regulations, to pay, on a monthly basis, social security contributions for the employees’ future pension benefits. These benefits, according to IAS 19 ‘Employee Benefits’, are state plans and are characterized as defined contribution plans. Therefore, the Company’s subsidiaries have no legal or constructive obligation to pay future pension benefits and their obligation is limited to payment of contributions as they fall due.

3.Significant accounting policies

(q)Fair Value

The Group measures investment properties at fair value at each balance sheet date. In addition, fair values of financial instruments measured at amortized cost are disclosed in Note 32 and Note 16.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

-in the principal market for the asset or liability, or

-in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible to by the Group.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.


A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

-Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

-Level 2: 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: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).


For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.



Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


4.Segment reporting

The Group’s operating segments are defined as separate entities developing particular residential projects, which for the reporting purposes were aggregated. The aggregation for reporting purpose is based on geographical locations (Warsaw, Poznań, Wrocław and Szczecin) and type of activity (development of apartments and development of houses). Moreover, for particular assets the reporting was based on type of income: rental income from investment property. The segment reporting method requires also the Company to present separately joint venture within Warsaw segment.

According to the Management Board’s assessment, the operating segments identified have similar economic characteristics. Aggregation based on the type of development within the geographical location has been applied since primarily the location and the type of development determine the average margin that can be realized on each project and the project’s risk factors. Considering the fact that the production process for apartments is different from that for houses and considering the fact that the characteristics of customers buying apartments slightly differ from those of customers interested in buying houses, aggregation by type of development within the geographical location has been used for segment reporting and disclosure purposes.

Segment results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated indirectly based on reasonable criteria. The unallocated result for the year comprises mainly head office expenses. Unallocated assets comprise mainly unallocated cash and cash equivalents and income tax assets. Unallocated liabilities comprise mainly bond loans and income tax liabilities.

Data presented in the table below are aggregated by type of development within the geographical location:

5.Acquisition of the Nova Królikarnia project

On 10 April 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of certain shares and loans granted to project companies owning properties constituting the Nova Królikarnia project for a price of PLN 83.8 million under a sale and purchase agreement with Global City Holdings B.V. (‘GCH’). The Nova Królikarnia project is located around Jaśminowa street in Warsaw and consists of 197 units and an aggregate floor space of 19,500 m2 (at the day of the transaction the project included, completed projects with 53 units and an aggregate floor space of 4,950 m2, projects under construction with 126 units and an aggregate floor space of 11,150 m2 and a project in pipeline with 18 units and an aggregate floor space of 3,400 m2). All amounts were repaid as at 31 December 2019.

In addition to the above, the Company and GCH have concluded call option agreements for a total value of PLN 78.9 million, under which the Company has been granted three call options with respect to the shares in the eight other project companies holding the remaining stages of the Nova Królikarnia project. The exercise of the three call options allows the Company to develop 161 units with an aggregate floor space of approximately 21,500 m2.

A package of customary security, such as mortgages, share pledges and statement on submission to voluntary enforcement has been established for the benefit of GCH to secure the obligations of the Company under the sale and purchase agreement and the call option agreement. Also, it has been agreed with GCH that the Company will continue to manage the Nova Królikarnia project in whole, including the stages of the project that are related to the call option agreement.

On 5 April 2019, the Company exercised the first call option under the Call Option Agreements for the total price of PLN 33.9 million as a result of which the Company (via its subsidiary) acquired shares in companies holding four substages of Nova Królikarnia project comprising 84 units with an aggregate floor space of around 9,200 m2. Moreover the Company signed the annex changing the schedule of payment of the first call option in which the price was determined to be paid in three installments: PLN 7.0 million was paid in April 2019, PLN 16.9 million was paid in October 2019 and PLN 10.0 million was paid in October 2020.

On 7 October 2019, the Company exercised the second call option under the Call Option Agreements for the total price of PLN 35.1 million as a result of which the Company (via its subsidiary) acquired shares in companies holding three substages of Nova Królikarnia project comprising 44 units with an aggregate floor space of around 9,000 m2. Moreover the Company signed the annexes changing the schedule of payment of second call option in which the price is determined to be paid in three installments: PLN 8.1 million was paid in October 2019, PLN 5.0 million was paid in February 2020 and PLN 22.0 million was paid in April 2020.

On 9 April 2020, the Company (via its subsidiary) exercised that last (third) call option under the Call Option Agreement in total amount of PLN 9.9 mio, as a result of this transaction the Company acquired shares in one substage of the Nova Królikarnia project with an aggregate floor space of 3,300 m2. All price for realization of third call option in amount of PLN 9.9 mio was paid in April 2020.

All payments concerning realization of all three call options were made according to the abovementioned schedule. As at 31 December 2020 all payables related to Acquisition of Nova Królikarnia Project were reduced to nil.

Certain fees in the maximum amount of PLN 11.9 million were due by the Company if the Company would not exercise all three call options within certain deadlines. As at 31 December 2020 as a result of realization of all three call options all fees were reduced to nil.

The table below presents the analysis of cash flows on the acquisition of the Nova Królikarnia project:

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

6.Revenue

The majority of Group’s revenues are generated through development and sale of units, primarily apartments, in residential real-estate projects to individual customers in Poland (“residential units”). The Group recognizes revenues at the moment performance obligations are satisfied. According to Group’s policy the performance obligation is satisfied at the moment, the residential unit is handed over to the customer, which happens only after construction process is finalized and issuance of occupancy permit, based on hand-over protocol signed between the Group representatives and the customer and provided that the entire amount resulting from the sale agreement has been paid by the customer. The agreements with the customers do not contain variable considerations. The agreements, in the opinion of the Group, do not contain a significant financing component. Based on such characteristics of revenues, the Group, as a rule, does not present any receivables or other contract assets, except for costs to obtain the contract, capitalized to prepayments. Contract liabilities, are reflected by advances received, which are disclosed in the Note 30.

The table below presents breakdown of Revenue from residential projects per project:

As at 31 December 2020, the investment property included property held for long-term rental yields and capital appreciation, and were not occupied by the Group. The investment property consists of a plot of land located in Warsaw (71, Gwiaździsta Street) and an office building with an aggregate usable floor space of 1,318 m2 located on this plot that is leased to third parties under lease agreements with an indefinite term subject to a three-month notice period for termination (“Bielany IP”).

Investment property is valued at fair value determined as at 31 December 2020 by an independent appraiser, having an appropriate recognized professional qualification using the method of discounted cash flows. As at 31 December 2019, the fair value of Investment property was determined by the Management.

As at 31 December 2020, the Bielany IP was valued based on the discounted cash flow approach, including the assumption as to an annual discount rate of 7% (during a 6 year forecast period), a capitalization exit yield of 7.5%, a monthly rate of PLN 45 per m2. If the yields used for the appraisals of investment property on 31 December 2020, had been 100 basis points higher than was the case at that time, the value of the investments would have been 10% lower. In this situation, the Company’s shareholders’ equity would have been PLN 874 thousand lower.

During the year ended 31 December 2020 and 2019 the rental income from investment property amounted to PLN 757 thousand and PLN 767 thousand, respectively.

The investment properties are currently occupied.

The investment properties are used to secure bond loans series R.

Realization of deferred tax assets

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. In order to fully realize the deferred tax asset (before offsetting against deferred tax liability), the Group will need to generate future taxable income of approximately PLN 73,895 thousand. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible. The management believes there is a higher probability that the Group will realize the benefits of these deductible differences. The amount of the deferred tax asset which is considered realizable, could however be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the tax loss carry-forward period are reduced.

Tax losses in Poland are required to be utilized within 5 years following the period in which they originated, subject to the limitation that a maximum of 50% of the loss carry-forward can be used in one year.

26.Bond loans

Financial ratio covenants:

Impact of IFRS 16 on financial ratios in bond covenants:

Terms and conditions of issuance of Bonds of the Company (“T&C’s”) provide that only certain, specified types of financial indebtedness should be taken into account when determining the level of financial indebtedness for the purpose of calculating financial ratios in accordance with T&C’s. In particular, certain T&C’s require that financial indebtedness resulting from finance lease agreements (in Polish: umowy leasingu finansowego) should be included in calculation of the financial indebtedness. Those T&C’s do not provide that the indebtedness resulting from finance lease agreements shall also include other financial indebtedness which is recognized as lease liability in accordance with IFRS 16.

Given the above, and taking into account the type of activities carried out by the Group, despite changes in the IFRS in this respect, the Company concluded that inclusion of other type of financial indebtedness, in particular liabilities from annual fees for perpetual usufruct, for the purposes of calculations of financial ratios would not be in line with T&C’s and therefore the Company does not include such finance lease alike items in such calculations.

Other covenants:

Series R, T, U and V:

Based on the conditions of bonds R, T, U and V transactions with related-parties (shareholders holding more than 25% of the shares in the Company “within the meaning of IAS 24 or with related parties “including with entities controlling the Company whether jointly or individually, whether directly or indirectly or with their subsidiaries which are not members of the Group) shall not exceed the aggregate amount of PLN 1.0 million during any given calendar year.

During the year ended 31 December 2020, the consulting fees related to A. Luzon Group amounted to PLN 864 thousand. For additionally information see Note 35.

32.Fair value estimation of financial assets and liabilities

Estimation of fair values

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, other current financial assets and trade and other payables and accrued expenses: the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments;

loans and borrowings and loans granted to joint ventures: the fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument using discount rates offered to the Group for similar instruments of comparable maturities by the Group’s bankers. The own non-performance risk as at 31 December 2020 was assessed as insignificant.

Interest rates used for determining fair value

The interest rates used to discount estimated cash flows (PLN denominated), where applicable, are based on WIBOR plus margin as at 31 December 2020 and 31 December 2019 and are as follows:


As at 31 December

The table below provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of the Group’s assets and liabilities:

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: 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: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

36.Financial risk management, objectives and policies

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, price risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance. The Management Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarized below. The Group also monitors the market price risk arising from all financial instruments.

The Group does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge currency or interest rate risks arising from the Group’s operations and its sources of finance. It is, and has been throughout the year ended 31 December 2020 and 2019, the Group’s policy that no trading in (derivative) financial instruments shall be undertaken.

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash balances, bank loans, bonds, trade receivables and trade payables. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to manage the Group’s liquidity and to raise finance for the Group’s operations.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially expose the Group to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and receivables.

The Group is making significant cash payments as security for preliminary land purchase agreements. The Group minimizes its credit risk arising from such payments by registering advance repayment obligations in the mortgage register of the respective property. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. The Group does not expect any counter parties to fail in meeting their obligations. The carrying amounts of the financial assets represent the maximum credit risk exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was as follows:

The Group places its cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions with high credit ratings. Management does not expect any counterparty to fail to meet its obligations. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Group’s customer base. The credit quality of cash at banks and short-term bank deposits can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings:

36.Financial risk management, objectives and policies

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments, such as bond loans, bank loans, cash and cash equivalents. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing return.

(i) Foreign currency risk

The Group is exposed to foreign currency risk on receivables and payables denominated in a currency other than PLN to a limited extent only. As at 31 December 2020 and 2019, trade receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies were insignificant.

(ii) Price risk

The Group’s exposure to marketable and non-marketable securities price risk does not exists because the Group has not invested in securities as at 31 December 2020 and as at 31 December 2019.

(iii) Interest rate risk

Except for bonds series P amounting to PLN 10.0 million (all bonds series P were repaid during 2020) and Interest bearing deferred trade payables, the Group did not enter into any fixed-rate borrowings transaction. The Group’s variable-rate borrowings are exposed to a risk of change in cash flows due to changes in interest rates. Short-term receivables and payables are not exposed to interest rate risk.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.

The Group monitors its risk to a shortage of funds using a recurring liquidity planning tool. This tool considers the maturity of both its financial investments and financial assets (e.g. accounts receivable, other financial assets) and projected cash flows from operations. The Group's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans and bond loans.

36.Financial risk management, objectives and policies

Real-estate risk

COVID-19 pandemic hit hard the world economy and Poland was not an exception, most of the real estate sectors suffered from the lockdown imposed by the government, the less effected sector was the residential sector in which the company operate. Year 2020 was exceptional year in all aspects for the company, the company performed well under this changing conditions and achieved impressive results although operating within pandemic period and government restrictions. The overall economic situation and geopolitical situation in Europe and in Poland and the ongoing uncertainties in the real estate market is still vulnerable due to the COVID-19 effect. This situation make it very difficult to predict with precision the results for 2021. The level of development of the Polish economy, the performance of the banking industry and consumers’ interest in new housing projects, changes in construction cost, the challenge of securing lands for considerable prices and the significant impact of it on the margins of new phases and projects, as well as increasing competition in the market and on top of all operating in global pandemic situation are considered to be the most significant uncertainties for the financial year ending 31 December 2021.

Construction cost risk

Construction costs increased significantly over the last 2 years and stabilized during 2020, there is a risk that construction costs might continue to increase also during 2021. The potential increase is mainly related to the growth in costs of hiring qualified workforce, as well as to an increase in costs of building materials. The Company and the Group do not operate a construction business, but, instead, for each project an agreement is concluded with a third party general contractor, who is responsible for running the construction and for finalizing the project including obtaining all permits necessary for safe use of the apartments. In the year 2020 there were many changes in the constructions law, which might impact the cost of constructions. The biggest change refers to the increase in fire safety in case of a change in the use of the building or its part. The notification should be accompanied by an expert's opinion on fire safety, which by the end might be reflected in the construction costs offered by the general contractor. In order to mitigate the risk of the increase in construction costs, the Company and the Group are signing a lump-sum contact with the general contractor, which will allow the Group to complete the project based on the estimated budget.

Risk of non-performance by General Contractors

In each project or stage of the project, the Group has concluded and will conclude contracts for the construction and implementation of development projects with one general contractor. There is a risk that non-performance of the agreement by the general contractor may cause delays in the project or significantly impact the business, financial condition or results of the Company and the Group. The Company sees a potential risk for non-performance of obligations by the general contractor in the availability of qualified workforce, in the increase of salaries and cost of construction materials. Non-performance may result in claims against general contractor with the risk that general contractor may also fail to fully satisfy possible claims of the Company and the Group. The company and the Group Implement selection criteria when hiring a general contractor, which include, experience, professionalism, financial strength of the general contractor (with the obligation to provide bank or insurance guarantee) as well as the quality of the insurance policy covering all risks associated with the construction process.

Changes in legislation

Potential future changes in the legislation (contemplated deletion of open escrow accounts as well as the possible introduction of compulsory contributions to the developer guarantee fund) also constitute a risk that could directly or indirectly affect the Company’s and the Group's activities and results. The Management Board assesses, however, that the possible introduction of such changes might have a negative impact on the Group's activities to a lesser extent than on other market operators, primarily due to the Company’s and the Group’s comfortable financial situation and also because of the trust and good reputation, which the Company and the Group enjoy among financial institutions.

Availability of mortgages

The demand for residential real estate largely depends on the availability of credits and loans for financing the purchase of apartments and houses by individuals. Possible increase in interest rates, deterioration of the economic situation in Poland, the new pandemic situation and the increase in unemployment in Poland as well as possible administrative restrictions on lending activities of the banks may cause a drop in demand for apartments and houses, and therefore a decrease in interest from potential buyers in the Group's development projects, which in turn may have a significant adverse impact on activities, financial standing or performance of the Company and the Group.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

36.Financial risk management, objectives and policies

Real-estate risk

Availability of mortgages

In 2020, access to mortgages was selective due to pandemic outbreak restrictions imposed by banks interest rates on a mortgage loans remain low and stable, at levels around their historic minimum. The restrictive approach of the banks post pandemic outbreak in the beginning of 2020 is seems to be unwinding which may contribute to a better access to Mortgage Loans, hens effecting positively on potential demand for the Housing market.

Administration

The nature of real estate development projects requires a number of licenses, approvals and arrangements to be obtained by the Company and the Group at every stage of the development process. Despite significant caution applied in the project execution schedules, there is always a risk of delay in their obtainment. In addition there is always the risk of protests made against permits decisions which have already been issued (also due to appeals with no consequences for the appellants) or in the worse scenario failing to obtain the relevant permits. Additional risk might rise with respect to properties under perpetual usufruct. All the above factors may affect the ability of the Group to conduct and complete its executed and planned projects.

37.Capital management

When managing capital, it is the Group’s objective to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the profit appropriation, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. Consistent with others in the industry, the Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio and leverage. The Group’s policy is to keep the gearing ratio of the Group lower than 60%, and a leverage of the Group lower than 50%.

Banking covenants vary according to each loan agreement, but typically are not related directly to the gearing ratio of the Company but to the proportion of loan to value of the mortgage collateral which usually is required not to cross the limit of 70% or 75%. Moreover the Company is obliged to monitor its indebtedness according to the conditions of the bond issuance, which require, amongst others, that in each reporting period the Company shall test the ratio between Net debt to Equity. The Ratio shall not exceed 80% (for additional information see Note 26).

The gearing ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total equity. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings (including ‘current and non-current borrowings’ as shown in the consolidated Statement of Financial Position) less cash and cash equivalents and less Other current financial assets. Leverage is calculated as net debt divided by total capital employed. Total capital employed is calculated as ‘equity’ as shown in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position plus net debt financing assets in operation.


The gearing ratios and leverage at 31 December 2020 and 31 December 2019 were as follows:

potential decrease in Company’s sales due to lower demand, as a result of tightening the accessibility to mortgages from banks or increase of unemployment;


potential risk of delay in completing the Company’s projects (on time or on budget), which could be caused by shortage of construction personal, shortage of raw materials or prolongation of administrative procedures and delays with obtaining building permits and occupancy permits;


potential problems with obtaining bank financing for the Company or issuance of bonds for further
development of the Company projects and land bank;


all of the above could potentially affect the company cash standing and liquidity;


potential effect on the covenants requirements to our bond’s holders.


The above points were monitored on a daily basis by the Management Board of the Company, together with the hard work of the Company’s employees. During this period the Management Board adopted and implemented counter measuring precautions in order to address each of the above potential risk.
