Leasing
The Group as lessee
The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease component, at inception of the contract. The Group recognises
a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except
for short-term leases (with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low value assets (of less than USD 5,000). For
these leases, the Group recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the
lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased
assets are consumed.

these leases, the Group recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the
lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement
date, discounted by using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses its
incremental borrowing rate.

Revaluation of tangible assets
The Group records its tangible assets based on the revaluation method. The last revaluation of property plant and
equipment has been performed as at December 31, 2021, using the depreciated cost method and adjusted, as necessary,
based on an impairment test exercise.
equipment has been performed as at December 31, 2021, using the depreciated cost method and adjusted, as necessary,
based on an impairment test exercise.
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets
At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of the intangible and tangible assets to determine
whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the
recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). As at
December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 respectively, the management assessed if there is any impairment indicators for
tangible and intangible assets. There was no impairment indicator identified.

tangible and intangible assets. There was no impairment indicator identified.
In assessing the recoverable amount of tangible and intangible assets, management estimates future cash flows discounted
to their 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 tangible and intangible assets for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
The Company considers that the disposal costs are not negligible and the fair value less costs of disposal of the revalued
asset is necessarily less than its fair value.

is less than its revalued amount. In this case, after the revaluation requirements have been applied, the Group
applies this to determine whether the asset may be impaired.
Recoverable amount for intangible assets with indefinite useful life (trademarks and customer lists) is determined annually
as the fair value less costs to sell of the specific intangible asset. The Group determine the fair value for impairment analysis
specifically for each item of intangible assets with indefinite useful life.
as the fair value less costs to sell of the specific intangible asset. The Group determine the fair value for impairment analysis
specifically for each item of intangible assets with indefinite useful life.
When measuring the fair value of tangible and intangible assets, the Group uses market observable data as far as possible.
Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques
as follows:
•
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets;
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets;
•
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly (i.e. as
prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices);
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly (i.e. as
prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices);
•
Level 3: inputs for the asset that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

based on current and anticipated market conditions and are approved by the board. However, the budgets used are subject
to uncertainties mainly determined by the market volatility and assumptions used by management, the headroom is
significant.

The management reviews for adequacy the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end of each
annual reporting period.
annual reporting period.
Provisions and contingent liabilities
The management exercises judgment in measuring and recognizing provisions (e.g., decommissioning provision, retirement
provision, CO2 emissions provision, commercial litigation, etc.) and the exposures to contingent liabilities related to pending
litigation or other outstanding claims subject to negotiated settlement, mediation, arbitration or government regulation, as
well as other contingent liabilities. Judgment is necessary in assessing the likelihood that a pending claim will succeed, or a
liability will arise, and to quantify the possible range of the financial settlement. Because of the inherent uncertainty in this
evaluation process, actual losses may be different from the originally estimated provision.

The average credit period on sales of goods is 40 days as in 2021. No interest is charged on outstanding trade receivables.
The Group always measures the loss allowance for trade receivables at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. The expected credit
losses on trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to past default experience of the debtor and
an analysis of the debtor’s current financial position, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic
conditions of the industry in which the debtors operate and an assessment of both the current as well as the forecast
direction of conditions at the reporting date. There has been no change in the estimation techniques during the current
reporting period.

Allowances for trade receivables
Allowances for trade receivables
The Group writes off a trade receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty
and there is no realistic prospect of recovery, e.g. when the debtor has been placed under liquidation or has entered into

Credit approvals and other monitoring procedures are also in place to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover
overdue debts. Furthermore, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each trade debt and debt investment on an
individual basis at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate loss allowance is made for irrecoverable
amounts. In this regard, the directors of the Group consider that the Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced. Trade
receivables consist of a large number of customers, spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. Ongoing credit

For trade receivables, the Group has applied the simplified approach in IFRS 9 to measure the loss allowance at lifetime ECL.
The Group determines the expected credit losses on these items by using a provision matrix, estimated based on historical
credit loss experience based on the past due status of the debtors, adjusted as appropriate to reflect current conditions and
estimates of future economic conditions. Accordingly, the credit risk profile of these assets is presented based on their past
due status in terms of the provision matrix. Please refer to Note 20.

27.FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)
Financial assets measured at amortized cost include all assets with contractual terms that give rise to cash flows on specific
dates. The Group includes in this measurement category the trade receivables, other long-term assets, short term loans
granted, and cash and cash equivalents. Initial measurement of these assets is generally at fair value, which usually
corresponds to the transaction price at the time of acquisition or, in the case of trade receivable, to the transaction price
pursuant to IFRS 15. Due to the short terms of the cash and cash equivalents short term loans granted, and trade
receivables, the fair values largely correspond to the carrying amounts since it reflects the transaction price.

Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost generally include all financial liabilities, provided these do not represent

value of the consideration received. Subsequent measurement is recognized in profit or loss at amortized cost using the
effective interest method. For trade liabilities and other liabilities usually mature in the short term, the amounts on the
balance sheet represent approximations of their fair value since the carrying amount is similar to the transaction price.

The year 2022 brought a considerable decrease in greenhouse gas emissions (on both platforms) due to both the decrease in
the amount of natural gas consumed and, against the background of the economic crisis triggered by the war in Ukraine, the
aggressive increase in the price of natural gas and restricting the sales market for the Group products.
