CONSOLIDATED AND COMPANY’S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER
2023
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)

Notes to the financial statements
1 General information
Special Closed-Ended Type Real Estate Investment Company INVL Baltic Real Estate (hereinafter ‘the Company’, code
152105644) is a joint stock company registered in the Republic of Lithuania. It was established on 28 January 1997.
On 22 December 2016 the Company was issued a closed-end investment company (UTIB) licence by the Bank of Lithuania.
Under the Company’s Articles of Association, the Company will operate until 22 December 2046, with an extension possibility for
additional term of twenty years.
As the Company obtained the status of a closed-ended investment company, its management was thereafter undertaken by UAB
INVL Asset Management (‘the Management Company’), which is entitled to the Management Fee (Note 2.11) and the
Performance Fee (Note 2.11).
Based on the Articles of Association, for the sake of efficiency of the Company’s activities and control over its investments, an
Investment Committee was formed by a decision of the Board of the Management Company. The Investment Committee consists
of 3 (three) members, to the positions of which the representatives of the Management Company (employees, members of
management bodies of the Management Company, other persons appointed by a decision of the Board of the Management
Company) were appointed. Members of the Investment Committee shall be appointed and removed from office by the Board of
the Management Company. An approval of the Investment Committee must be obtained for all investments of the Company and
for their sale. At the moment of the release of the financial statements two members of the Investment Committee was operating,
the third member is not nominated.
On 29 April 2021, the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company approved the establishment of the Supervisory
Board of the Company. The Supervisory Board is a collegial body supervising the activities of the Company. The Supervisory
Board ensures the representation of the interests of the Company’s and the company's shareholders, the accountability of this
body to the shareholders and the objective and impartial supervision of Company’s activities. Considering that a new version of
the Republic of Lithuania Law on Companies entered into effect on 30 November 2022 and according to the provisions of section
1 of article 78 therein, the requirement to form a collegial body with supervisory functions no longer applies to investment
companies specified in the Republic of Lithuania Law on Collective Investment Undertakings with the legal form of a public limited
liability company whose shares are admitted to trading on a regulated market, General Ordinary Shareholders Meeting that was
held on 18 April 2023, made a decision to eliminate the Company’s collegial body with a supervisory function the Supervisory
Board. The Company's management bodies are not formed.
The Company also signed an agreement on depository services with AB SEB Bankas, which acts as a depository of the
Company’s assets.
In 2023 and 2022 the group consisted of the Company and its directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries (hereinafter ‘the Group’,
Note 5).
The address of the office is Gynėjų str. 14, Vilnius, Lithuania.
The Group was established on 29 April 2014 by spinning-off from AB Invalda INVL (code 121304349) the investments into entities,
which business is investment into investment properties held for future development, into commercial real estate and renting
thereof. On 17 August 2015 the parent entity AB INVL Baltic Real Estate (hereinafter ‘the Former Parent Company’, code
30329973) was merged to the Company, which continues its operations under the name INVL Baltic Real Estate and became the
parent of the Group.
The Group has invested in commercial real estate: business centres and warehouse properties in Lithuania and Latvia. Majority
of the properties generate leasing income and most of them offer prospects for further development.
The Group seeks to earn profit from investments in commercial real estate by ensuring the growth of leasing income. When it
makes business sense, the Company also considers investments in the reorganisation of its existing portfolio of properties, taking
advantage of their good location.

2 Summary of material accounting policies
The material accounting policies applied in preparing the Group’s and the Company’s financial statements for the year ended
31 December 2023 are as follows:
2.1. Basis of preparation
Statement of compliance
The financial statements of the Company and the consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union (hereinafter the EU).
These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investment properties and investments in
subsidiaries that have been measured at fair value. The financial statements are presented in thousands of euro (EUR) and all
values are rounded to the nearest thousand except when otherwise indicated.
Adoption of new and/or changed IFRSs and IFRIC interpretations
The Group and the Company has adopted the new and amended IFRS and IFRIC interpretations as of 1 January 2023:
Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2: Disclosure of Accounting policies;
Amendments to IAS 8: Definition of Accounting Estimates;
Amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes: Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction;
Amendments to IAS 12: International Tax ReformPillar Two Model Rules;
IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts;
Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2: Disclosure of Accounting policies.
IAS 1 was amended to require companies to disclose their material accounting policy information rather than their significant
accounting policies. The amendment provided the definition of material accounting policy information. The amendment also
clarified that accounting policy information is expected to be material if, without it, the users of the financial statements would be
unable to understand other material information in the financial statements. The amendment provided illustrative examples of
accounting policy information that is likely to be considered material to the entity’s financial statements. Further, the amendment
to IAS 1 clarified that immaterial accounting policy information need not be disclosed. However, if it is disclosed, it should not
obscure material accounting policy information. To support this amendment, IFRS Practice Statement 2, ‘Making Materiality
Judgements’ was also amended to provide guidance on how to apply the concept of materiality to accounting policy disclosures.
The amendments have had an impact on the Group’s and the Company’s disclosures of accounting policies, but not on the
measurement, recognition or presentation of any items in the Group’s and the Company’s financial statements.
All amendments adopted as of 1 January 2023 had no impact on the Group’s and Company’s financial statements for the year
ended 31 December 2023.
Standards adopted by the EU but not yet effective and have not been early adopted
Amendments to existing standards and new standards, which are adopted by the EU, but not yet effective, are not relevant to the
Group and the Company .
Standards not yet adopted by the EU
Amendments to existing standards and new standards, which are not yet adopted by the EU, are not relevant to the Group and
the Company.
2.2. Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. The financial
statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the parent company, using consistent accounting
policies.
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has
rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the
entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and
continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.

2 Summary of material accounting policies (cont’d)
2.3. Functional and presentation currency
The financial statements are prepared in euro (EUR), which is local currency of the Republic of Lithuania, and presented in EUR
thousand. Euro is also the local currency of the Republic of Latvia. Euro is the Company’s and the Group’s functional and
presentation currency. The exchange rates in relation to other currencies are set daily by the European Central Bank and the
Bank of Lithuania. As these financial statements are presented in EUR thousand, individual amounts were rounded. Due to the
rounding, totals in the tables may not add up.
2.4. Business combinations
The Group applies the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for
the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree,
and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting
from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired
and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their
fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the recognised amounts of acquiree’s
identifiable net assets.
When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and
designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances, and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date.
Where the acquisition involves a group of assets and liabilities, the Company identify and recognise the individual assets acquired
and liabilities. The cost of the transaction is allocated to the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, based on their relative fair
values at the date of purchase. No goodwill arises on the transaction.
2.5. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, excluding the costs of day to day servicing, less accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 3 to
6 years.
The asset residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year
end to ensure that they are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items in property, plant, and equipment.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from
its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of comprehensive income within “other income” in the
year the asset is derecognised.
2.6. Investment properties
Properties that are held for long-term rental yields and for capital appreciation are classified as investment properties. Where the
Group and the Company owns the buildings, but not the land on which they are built, land is leased from the municipality under
operating lease. Land held under operating leases is classified and accounted for by the Group and the Company as investment
property when the rest of the definition of investment property is met.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment
properties are carried 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 profit or loss in the year in which they arise. The fair value of investment
property is determined annually by qualified independent valuers (Note 11).
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset’s carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits
associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group and the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All
other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When part of an investment property is replaced, the carrying
amount of the replaced part is derecognised.
Investment properties are derecognised 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. Any gains or losses on the retirement or disposal
of an investment property are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within “Net gains (losses) from fair value
adjustments on investment property” in the year of retirement or disposal.

2023
(all amounts are in EUR thousand unless otherwise stated)

2 Summary of material accounting policies (cont’d)
2.7. Investments into subsidiaries (the Company)
The business model of the Company is to manage investment into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries as one
portfolio and evaluate their performance on a combined fair value basis. On this basis information on portfolio is provided to the
Management Company and the Investment Committee. Therefore, the portfolio is neither held to collect contractual cash flows
nor held both to collect contractual cash flows and to sell financial assets. Consequently, such portfolio of financial assets is
measured at fair value through profit or loss. If the Company grants short-term loans to subsidiaries for the purpose not related
with investment activities they are classified as financial assets measured at amortised cost, because they are solely payments
of principal and interest and are held to collect contractual cash flows.
At initial recognition, the Group and the Company measures portfolio of investment into subsidiaries at its fair value. Transaction
costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed through profit or loss.
If the fair value of the financial asset at initial recognition differs from the transaction price, it is recognised at fair value and ‘1 day
gain’ is recognised only if that fair value is evidenced by a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or based on a
valuation technique that uses only data from observable markets. In all other cases the difference between the fair value at initial
recognition and the transaction price is deferred. For loans granted measured at fair value through profit or loss this difference is
recognised using the straight-line method over the estimated maturity of financial asset.
2.8. Financial assets
Financial assets within the scope of IFRS 9 are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (either
through other comprehensive income or through profit or loss) or financial assets measured at amortised cost. The classification
depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
As the business model for the Group‘s and the Company‘s other financial assets (except financial assets described in Note 2.7)
is held to collect contractual cash flows and they are solely payments of principal and interest, other financial assets are measured
at amortised cost. They comprised short-term loans granted, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents. The Group
and the Company reclassifies debt instruments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
At initial recognition, the Group and the Company measures financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset
not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and
interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is calculated using the effective interest rate
method and presented as “other income” in the statement of comprehensive income. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is
recognised directly in profit or loss. Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of comprehensive
income.
2.9. Impairment of financial assets
The Group and the Company assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets
carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit
risk.
Cash and cash equivalents are considered to be low credit risk at the reporting date (Stage 1) as they have a low risk of default
and the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term. Therefore, a three-stage
model for impairment of financial assets other than trade receivables is not relevant to the Group and the Company.
The financial assets are considered as credit-impaired, if objective evidence of impairment exist at the reporting date. Evidence
of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default
or delinquency in payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation.
Financial assets are written off, in whole or in part, when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is
no reasonable expectation of recovery include, among others, the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the
debtor.
For finance lease receivables, trade and other receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which
requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. Trade receivables are classified either
to Stage 2 or Stage 3:
Stage 2 comprises receivables for which there the simplified approach was applied to measure the expected lifetime credit
losses, except for certain trade receivables classified in Stage 3;
Stage 3 comprises trade receivables which are overdue more than 90 days (except is reasonable explanation for that) or
individually identified as impaired.
Trade receivables are mostly covered within one month after year-end or they are identified as individually impaired. Therefore,
for Stage 2 trade receivables the Expected Credit loss (ECL) would be calculated and recognised if a material amount is
determined for potential impairment based on the settlement of trade receivables after reporting date, which are not individually
impaired.

2 Summary of material accounting policies (cont’d)
2.10. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position and for purpose of the cash flow statement comprise cash at
banks and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.
2.11. Performance Fee and Management Fee
The Management Fee is remuneration paid to the Management Company for management of the assets of the Company, which
is payable for each quarter of a calendar year and is 0.375% of the quarterly weighted average capitalisation of the Company,
calculated according to the Articles of Association. From 1 January 2018 the rate of the Management Fee was changed to 0.25%
of the quarterly weighted average capitalisation of the Company.
The quarterly payable Management Fee is recorded as financial liability and is accounted for at amortised cost.
The Performance Fee depends on the return earned by the Company, which is calculated for the whole Company rather than for
an individual shareholder and is based on internal rate of return. The Performance Fee amounts to 20% of return in excess of the
annual internal rate of return of 8% (a high water-mark principle is applied). The Performance Fee is paid to the Management
Company on a quarterly basis if both conditions are met - the internal rate of return and the stock price growth (including dividends)
exceed 8% annually.
The Performance Fee is accounted as a provision on a quarterly basis until the conditions, as described above, for the payment
of the Performance Fee are satisfied, when payable part of the Performance Fee is recorded as financial liability and is further
accounted for at amortised cost.
The first period for the calculation of the Performance Fee started from 30 November 2016 according to the Articles of Association
of the Company, where initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return is net assets value of the Company as at 30 November
2016 (it is amounted to the equity of the Group as at 30 November 2016). If, after that date, the capitalisation of the Company
(market value of the issued shares of the Company) is more than net assets value of the Company and internal rate of return
calculated on the basis of net assets value is more than 8%, then payable Performance Fee is calculated based on net assets
value of the Company. If the capitalisation of the Company is less than net assets value of the Company and internal rate of return
calculated on the basis of capitalisation is more than 8%, then payable Performance Fee is calculated based on the capitalisation
of the Company. After the Performance Fee becomes payable, the new period for calculating of the Performance Fee starts,
where initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return is the capitalisation of the Company or net asset value of the Company
as at the end of previous period - depends on which based on these amounts payable part of the Performance Fee is calculated.
More detailed requirements are set out in the Articles of Association of the Company.
2.12. Financial liabilities
The Group and the Company recognises a financial liability when it first becomes a party to the contractual rights and obligations
in the contract.
All financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value, minus (in the case of a financial liability that is not at fair value through
profit or loss) transaction costs that are directly attributable to issuing the financial liability. Financial liabilities are measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest method. A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is
discharged or cancelled or expires.
Borrowings
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, borrowings are
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless
the Group and the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of
the reporting period.
2.13. Government grants
Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received
and the Group will comply with all attached conditions. The Group and the Company received subsidies for reconstruction of
heritage investment property. The grant relates to an asset (investment property) is recognised by deducting the grant in arriving
at the carrying amount of the asset. In the movement of investment property grant reduced subsequent expenditures.
The purchase of assets and the receipt of related grants are netted and not disclosed as separately in the investment property
notes.

2.14. Provisions
The expense relating to any provision is presented in the profit or loss. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions
are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is
used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
Provisions for onerous contracts
A provision for onerous lease contracts is recognised when the expected benefits to be derived by the Group and the Company
from a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract.
Provisions for the Performance Fee
The Company is obliged to pay the Performance Fee to the Management Company (Note 2.11). There is an obligation to pay the
Performance Fee, which becomes payable only in the event of outperformance of the benchmark when both conditions are met
as described in Note 2.11 and the Company’s Articles of Association.
As services are provided over time, the obligating past event arises and a provision for the Company’s management services
needs to be recognised. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the
present obligation.
2.15. Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are
recognised in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the retained earnings. Where any group company purchases the company’s
equity share capital (treasury shares), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income
taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to the company’s equity holders until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such
shares are subsequently reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and
the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the company’s equity holders.
2.16. Leases
Group and Company are the lessor in an operating lease
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the Group and the Company as the
lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments, including pre-payments, received under operating leases (net of any
incentives granted to the lessee) are credited to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the period
of the lease.
Any changes in the scope or the consideration for a lease, that was not part of the original terms and conditions of the lease, for
example, rent concessions given which were not contemplated as part of the original terms and conditions of the lease, are
accounted for as lease modifications.
The Group and the Company accounts for a modification to an operating lease as a new lease from the effective date of the
modification, recognising the remaining lease payments, including any amounts recorded as prepaid or accrued lease payments
at the time of the modification, as income on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term. Property leased out under
operating leases is included in investment property in the statement of financial position (Note 11). See Note 2.17 for the
recognition of rental income.
Group and Company are the lessees
Leases where the Group and/or the Company are lessees, are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at
the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Company and the Group.
The right-of-use asset is measured at its cost which includes the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any lease
payments made at or before the commencement date (less any lease incentives received), any initial direct costs incurred by the
Group and/or the Company. The lease liabilities are measured at the net present value of the lease payments.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is
generally the case for leases in the Company and the Group, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that
the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset
in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security, and conditions.
The Company and the Group are exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate,
which are not included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate
take effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease
period to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
The Group and the Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that
have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the
lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on
short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

2 Summary of material accounting policies (cont’d)
2.17. Revenue recognition
Lease income
Operating lease income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an
operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the underlying asset and recognised as expense over the lease term on the
same basis as lease income. The Group and the Company elected to recognise lease income for variable payment that depends
on an index or a rate in the periods in which changes of index or rate occur. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an
index or a rate are recognised as lease income in the periods in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs.
When the Group and the Company provides incentives to its tenants, the cost of the incentives is recognised over the lease term,
on a straight-line basis, as a reduction of lease income.
Utilities and other services income
Revenue from utilities and other services is recognised in the accounting period in which control of the services are passed to the
customer, which is when the service is rendered.
Revenue is measured at the transaction price agreed under the contract. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of variable
consideration and payments to customers, which are not for distinct services, this consideration may include discounts, trade
allowances, rebates.
A receivable is recognised when services are provided as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because
only the passage of time is required before the payment is due.
2.18. Income tax
From 1 January 2018 all income of Collective Investment Undertakings is not subject to taxation.
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income,
except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the
reporting period in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management
periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to
interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
From 1 January 2018 according to the new Corporate Income Tax Act of Latvia the annual profit is not taxed. Corporate income
tax would be paid on distributed profit, including conditional distributed profit as for example: expenditure not related to economic
activities, some loans granted to related parties, some provisions for doubtful debts. The tax rate on (net) distributed profit would
be 20/80.
2.19. Significant accounting judgements and estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management of the Group and the Company to make judgements and estimates
that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of
reporting period. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a
material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in the future periods.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including
expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Judgements
In the process of applying the accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which had the most
significant effect on the amounts recognised in these financial statements:
The Group acts as principal in relation to utility and other services
The management has concluded that the Group acts as a principal in relation to utility and other services. Although the most of
services rendered to the tenants is performed by other parties, the Group has a right to a service to be performed by the other
party, which gives the Group the ability to direct that party to provide the service to the customer on the entity’s behalf. From
tenant perspective the Group combines the services provided by other parties in providing the specified service to them. According
to the management the Group is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide services and has discretion in establishing
the price for the services.
Business combinations and acquisitions of assets
Purchases of investment property are generally treated as acquisitions of assets. According to the management, there are no
business combinations if the real estate object has individual tenants, the Company does not acquire other assets or rights in
addition to the real estate object and does not hire former employees. The Company does not acquire the business process
management know-how of a real estate object but manages all acquired objects centrally. The same premise is applicable for
acquisition of investment property through entity acquisition.

2 Summary of material accounting policies (cont’d)
2.19. Significant accounting judgements and estimates (cont’d)
Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a
significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are
described below. The Group and the Company base its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the
consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however,
may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Group and the Company. Such changes
are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
The significant areas of estimation used in the preparation of these financial statements are discussed below.
Fair value of investment properties
Fair value of investment properties was based either on the market approach by reference to sales in the market of comparable
properties or the income approach by reference to rentals obtained from the subject property or similar properties. Market
approach refers to the prices of the analogue’s transactions in the market. These values are adjusted for differences in key
attributes such as property size, location. Discounted cash flow projections in the income approach are based on estimates of
future cash flows, supported by the terms of any existing lease and other contracts and by external evidence such as current (at
the date of the statement of financial position) market rents for similar properties in the same location and condition, and using
discount rates that reflect current market assessments of the uncertainty in the amount and timing of the cash flows. The future
rental rates were estimated depending on the actual location, type, and quality of the properties, and taking into account market
data and projections at the valuation date.
The Company’s investment properties located in Lithuania have to be valued twice a year by qualified independent valuer in
accordance with the Lithuanian Law on Collective Investment Undertakings. In the process of valuation, the Management has
discussions with the qualified independent valuer about significant unobservable inputs.
The fair value of the investment properties of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2023 was EUR 42,058 thousand
and EUR 27,553 thousand, respectively (as at 31 December 2022 EUR 36,427 thousand and EUR 26,444 thousand,
respectively) (described in more details in Note 11).
Fair value of investments into subsidiaries in stand-alone financial statements
The fair values of investments into subsidiaries together with loans granted to subsidiaries are determined by using valuation
techniques, primarily discounted cash flows. The fair value of these investments was measured at the fair value of their net assets,
including loans granted by the Company. The main assets of subsidiaries are investment properties, which are measured at fair
value using income or market approach. The main liabilities of subsidiaries are borrowings from external financial institutions,
which are measured using income approach, such as a present value technique. The models used to determine fair values are
periodically reviewed and compared against historical results to ensure their reliability.
The fair value of the investments in subsidiaries as at 31 December 2023 was EUR 11,319 thousand (as at 31 December 2022
EUR 11,176 thousand) (described in more details in Note 5).
The provision for the Performance Fee
The amount of provision for the Performance Fee represents the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present
obligation at the end of the reporting period. The provision is calculated on the basis of the net assets value of the Company,
which equals to the equity of the Company. The Performance Fee would become payable only if the stock price growth (including
dividends) exceeded 8% annually. As described in Note 2.11, the payable Performance Fee could be based on net assets value
or on the capitalisation of the Company. The Company cannot control stock price of the Company shares, therefore the timing
and the amount of the Performance Fee payable in future are uncertain.
As at 31 December 2023 provision was calculated as an amount equal to 20% of return in excess of the annual internal rate of
return of 8% for period from 30 June 2021 till 31 December 2023. For this period internal rate of return based on net assets value
of the Company amounted to 14.49%. Initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return for this period was capitalisation of
the Company as at 30 June 2021.
As at 31 December 2022 provision was calculated as an amount equal to 20% of return in excess of the annual internal rate of
return of 8% for period from 30 June 2021 till 31 December 2022. For this period internal rate of return based on net assets value
of the Company amounted to 23.23%. Initial amount for calculation of internal rate of return for this period was capitalisation of
the Company as at 30 June 2021.
As at 31 December 2023 the Company recognised non-current provision for the Performance Fee of EUR 684 thousand (as at
31 December 2022 - EUR 900 thousand) (Note 7) .

3 Financial risk management
3.1. Financial risk factors
The risk management function within the Group is carried out in respect of financial risks, operational risks, and legal risks. On an
overall Group level strategical risk management was executed by the Management Company. Operational risk management is
carried out at each entity level by directors. The primary objectives of the financial risk management function are to establish risk
limits, and then ensure that exposure to risks stays within these limits. The operational and legal risk management functions are
intended to ensure proper functioning of internal policies and procedures to minimise operational and legal risks.
The Group’s and the Company’s principal financial liabilities comprise borrowings, trade, and other payables. The main purpose
of the borrowings is to raise finance for the Group’s and the Company’s operations. The Group and the Company have various
financial assets such as trade and other receivables, loans granted and cash which arise directly from its operations. The Company
and the Group have not used any derivative instruments so far, as management considered that there is no necessity for them.
The main risks arising from the financial instruments are market risk (including currency risk, cash flow and fair value interest rate
risk and price risk), liquidity risk and credit risk. The risks are identified and disclosed below.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an
obligation. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, deposits, credit exposures to outstanding trade receivables and
loans granted. The Group/Company seeks to ensure that rental contracts are entered into only with lessees with an appropriate
credit history, from some of lessees advance lease payments are required.
The maximum exposure to credit risk and impairment of trade and other receivables is disclosed in Note 13. The maximum
exposure to credit risk for loans granted to subsidiaries measured at fair value through profit or loss are their carrying amounts
(Note 5). In Note 13 is also disclosed credit quality of trade receivable. There are no transactions of the Group or the Company
that occur outside Lithuania and Latvia.
As at 31 December 2023 the Group faced a significant concentration of credit risk associated to one tenant. The balance of trade
receivable from this tenant comprised approximately 14% of the Group’s trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2023.
Other tenants did not pose the Group to a significant concentration of credit risk.
In addition, due to one off agreement, the Group had a significant concentration of credit risk amounting to 35% of the Group’s
trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2023. As of the reporting date, this receivable was fully paid.
As at 31 December 2023 the Company faced a significant concentration of credit risk related to two customers (one being a related
party and the other a third party). The balance of trade receivables from these customers comprised approximately 72% (related
party) and 14% (third party) of the Company’s trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2023. The concentration of credit
risk for the company arose from one - off agreements. As of the reporting date, these receivables were fully paid.
The significant concentration of credit risk for both the Group and the Company related a to one off agreement with third party
is associated with the 23 April 2015 share sales agreement. The sale of the shares was completed on 19 August 2015, and the
Company received the full amount for the shares. According to the agreement, there was also a right to receive contingent
consideration, which was determined as 50 percent of the deferred tax assets value arising from the entity’s tax losses
accumulated until the end of 2014. The Company has not recognised this amount as income prior to these financial statements
because, according to the management, the sold entity was not expected to earn taxable profit in the foreseeable future, and the
buyer would pay only for used tax losses. During 2023, the Company agreed with the buyer on the receivable amount due to 23
April 2015 share sales agreement and recognised EUR152 thousand as other income.
As at 31 December 2022 the Group and the Company had no significant concentrations of credit risk.
With respect to credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents and deposits the Group’s and the Company’s exposure to credit
risk arises from default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.
According to the European deposit insurance scheme, cash, cash equivalents and deposits of up to EUR 100 thousand of every
legal entity in each bank are covered with insurance. All the Group’s balance of cash and cash equivalents are covered with the
insurance, except for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, because the Company is a collective investment undertaking.
The insured amounts of cash placed on AS “SEB banka” accounts were exceeded by EUR 513 thousand and insured amounts
of cash placed on AB Šiaulių bankas accounts were exceeded by EUR 136 thousand as at 31 December 2023 (by EUR 476
thousand and by EUR 212 thousand, respectively, as at 31 December 2022).
All cash balances have a low credit risk at the reporting date and the impairment loss determined on 12-month expected credit
losses is resulted in an immaterial amount.
The credit quality of cash and cash equivalents can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings of the banks:

3.1 Financial risk factors (cont’d)
Market risk
Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the debt obligations
with floating interest rates.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in floating interest rates (EURIBOR), with all
other variables held constant, of the Group’s and the Company’s profit before tax (through the impact on floating rate borrowings).
There is no impact on the Group’s and the Company’s equity other than current year profit impact.

As at 31 December 2023 the Group and the Company had four and two loans respectively with floating interest rates (6 month
EURIBOR). As at 31 December 2022 the Group and the Company had two loans with floating interest rates (6 month EURIBOR).
Foreign exchange risk
The Group and the Company holds assets and liabilities denominated only in the Euro, which is functional and presentation
currency of the Group. Therefore, the Group and the Company are not exposed to foreign exchange risk.
Liquidity risk
The Group’s and the Company’s policy is to maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents or have available funding through an
adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet their commitments at a given date in accordance with strategic plans. The
liquidity risk of the Group’s operation in Lithuania and the Company is controlled on an overall Group level. The liquidity risk of the
Group’s operation in Latvia is controlled on an entity level. The Group’s and the Company’s objective is to maintain a balance
between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank loans. The liquidity risk management is divided into long-term
and short-term risk management.
The aim of the short-term liquidity management is to meet daily needs for funds. Short-term liquidity for the Group and the
Company is controlled through monthly monitoring of the liquidity status and needs of funds.
Long-term liquidity risk is managed by analysing the predicted future cash flows taking into account the possible financing sources.
Before approving the new investment projects the Group and the Company evaluate the possibilities to attract needed funds.
The Group’s liquidity ratio (total current assets / total current liabilities) as at 31 December 2023 and 2022 was approximately 0.90
and 0.95, respectively. The Company’s liquidity ratio as at 31 December 2023 and 2022 was approximately 0.87 and 0.43.
As at 31 December 2023 the current assets were lower than current liabilities by EUR 214 thousand in the Group and EUR 232
thousand in the Company. The management of the Group and the Company forecasted the cash flows of the Group and the
Company for 2024 and the forecast indicates that the Group and the Company will have sufficient funds to cover liabilities, which
fall due in 2024.

3.2. Capital management
The primary objective of the capital management is to ensure that the Group and the Company maintain a strong credit health
and healthy capital ratios in order to support their business and maximise shareholder value. The Company‘s management
supervises the investments so that they are in compliance with requirements applied to the capital, specified in the appropriate
legal acts, as well as provide the Group’s management with necessary information.
The Group‘s and the Company‘s capital comprises share capital, share premium, reserves and retained earnings.
The Group and the Company manage their capital structure and make adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions
and specific risks of their activity. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to
shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares.
The Company is obliged to keep its equity ratio at not less than 50 % of its share capital, as imposed by the Law on Companies
of Republic of Lithuania. The Company and the Group complied with this requirement as at 31 December 2023 and 2022, except
for two subsidiaries in 2023 and one subsidiaries in 2022. There are no plans yet to rectify the situation in Lithuania. Pursuant to
the Latvian Commercial Law the authorised share capital of a private limited liability company must be not less than EUR 2,800.
As of 31 December 2023 and 2022, all Latvian subsidiaries complied with this requirement.
Starting from 2022 the Company has the right to pay dividends without bank consent if the ratio of EBITDA (earnings before
interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) plus inflows and outflows from subsidiaries (dividends or repayment of granted loan
and new granted loans) plus change for provision for the Performance Fee minus payable Performance Fee divided by the sum
of debt service costs (interest and principal repayments) and dividends would be higher than 1.1. In addition, on 9 April 2020 the
Ordinary General Meeting of the Company changed dividend payment policy by setting the minimum amount of dividends at EUR
0.09, if the legal and contractual requirements do not restrict the payment of dividends .

4 Fair value estimation
Assets carried at fair value
The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
- 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
(that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices);
- Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).

There were no transfers of assets between the Level 1 and Level 2 and between Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy
during 2022.
There were no liabilities measured at fair value in the Group’s and the Company’s statements of financial position.
Financial instruments that are not carried at fair value
The Group’s and the Company’s principal financial instruments that are not carried at fair value in the statement of financial
position are cash and cash equivalents, deposits, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, non-current and current
borrowings, provision for onerous contract.
The carrying amount of the cash and cash equivalents, deposits, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables of the
Group and the Company as at 31 December 2023 and 2022 approximated their fair value because they are short-term and the
impact of discounting is immaterial.
The carrying amount of borrowings of the Group and the Company and provision for onerous contract as at 31 December 2023
and 2022 approximated their fair value. Bank borrowings have floating interest rate and were renegotiated recently, therefore
their interest rate represents the current market rate. The interest rates of borrowings from related party are reviewed at the end
of each financial year and adjusted in line with market rates changes, therefore it was concluded that their fair value approximates
carrying amount. The fair values of non-current borrowings are based on discounted cash flows using a current interest rate.
They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to use of unobservable inputs, including own credit risk.

6 Segment information
Management of the Company has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the Investment
Committee of the Management Company that are used to make strategic decisions. The Investment Committee analyses
performance of the Group on property-by-property basis of owned premises. Performance is evaluated based on net operating
income. Net operating income is calculated by deducting from revenue premises rent costs (excluding provision for onerous
contract), utilities expenses, repair and maintenance expenses, property management and brokerage costs, taxes on property
and insurance costs. Segment assets and liabilities are not reported to the Investment Committee.
Management of the Company has determined the following reportable segments:
- Owned property in Lithuania. The reportable segment comprises five operating segments on a property-by-property basis,
which are aggregated (in 2022 there were 4 such segments). The operating segments have similar economic characteristics
because all owned premises are located in Vilnius, Lithuania. These are office buildings. Most of them have further
development opportunities. All properties are multi-tenant. Corporate tenants dominate, but some premises are also leased
to governmental and retail tenants.
- Owned property in Latvia. Revenue is earned from warehouse located in Riga, Latvia.

rent agreement. One agreement has 8 months notification and tenant has to pay for the cancellation 2 months’ rent fee penalty.
According to some agreements, the tenants have the right to cancel the rent agreement within 630 months of the start of lease
term. According to non-cancellable lease agreements tenants must pay the penalty equal to rentals receivable during the whole
remaining lease period.

During 2022, properties leased out by the entity in Lithuania were valued as at 31 October 2022 and 30 April 2022, respectively,
by an accredited valuer UAB OBER-HAUS Nekilnojamasis Turtas (hereinafter together with SIA OBER-HAUS Vertešanas Serviss
referred to as ‘Oberhaus’) using the income approach. During 2022 investment properties located in Latvia were valued as at 31
October 2022 and 30 April 2022, respectively, by an accredited valuer SIA OBER-HAUS Vertešanas Serviss using a market
approach for land and using an income approach for warehouse.
During 2022 the most significant positive impact for the increased value of investment properties was due to the development
potential of Palangos 4 (Level 3 measurement) complex and land plots valuation located in Latvia (Level 2 measurement). The
most significant negative impact for the decreased value of investment properties was due to properties located at Vilniaus 37
(Level 2 and Level 3 measurement). Investment properties located at Vilniaus 37 acquisition value was higher than valuation.
Investment properties are measured at fair value.
There were no significant changes in the market during period from valuation date till end of reporting period that could have an
effect on the value of investment properties, therefore the updated valuation was not performed as at 31 December 2023 and 31
December 2022, only value of investment property located in Vilnius str. 37 was updated by EUR 52 thousand, which represent
capitalised costs of reconstruction expenses after valuation date.
The Group's policy is to recognise transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels as of the date of the event or change in
circumstances that caused the transfer.
The fair value represents the price that would be received selling an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date, in compliance with the International Valuation Standards set out by the International Valuation
Standards Committee. An investment property’s fair value was based either on the market approach by reference to sales in
the market of comparable properties or the income approach by reference to rentals obtained from the subject property or similar
properties. Market approach refers to the prices of the analogue’s transactions in the market. These values are adjusted for
differences in key attributes such as property size, location, and quality of interior fittings. The most significant input into this
valuation approach is price per square metre.
Income approach is based on the assumption that defined correlation between net activity future income and fair value of the
objects exists. For properties leased out by the entity main inputs include:
- Future rental cash inflows based on the actual location, type and quality of the properties and supported by the terms of any
- existing lease, other contracts or external evidence such as current market rents for similar properties;
- Discount rates reflecting current market assessments of the uncertainty in the amount and timing of cash flows;
- Estimated vacancy rates based on current and expected future market conditions after expiry of any current lease;
- Maintenance costs including necessary investments to maintain functionality of the property for its expected useful life;
- Capitalisation rates based on actual location, size and quality of the properties and taking into account market data at the
valuation date;
- Terminal value taking into account assumptions regarding maintenance costs, vacancy rates and market rents.
Investment properties held for future redevelopment were estimated taking into account the following estimates (in addition to the
inputs noted above):
- Sales prices based on the valuers’ experience and knowledge of market conditions of residential and commercial properties;
- Costs to complete that are based on the valuers’ experience and knowledge of market conditions and term sheets outlined
in approved detailed plans. Costs to complete also include a reasonable profit margin;
- Completion dates, as properties under construction require approval or permits from oversight bodies at various points in
the development process, including approval or permits in respect of initial design, zoning, commissioning, and compliance
with environmental regulations. Based on management’s experience with similar developments, all relevant permits and
approvals are expected to be obtained. However, the completion date of the development may vary depending on, among
other factors, the were no changes to the valuation techniques during the period;
- Profit on cost ratio reflecting current market assessment of profitability margin of developments projects. It is based on the
internal rate of returns for similar projects.

II. FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT EVENTS
4. Overview of the Issuer and its group activity
4.1. COMMENT MADE BY INVL ASSET MANAGEMENT REAL ESTATE FUND MANAGER VYTAUTAS BAKŠINSKAS
Last year has been extremely successful for the Company in achieving long-term operational results.
INVL Baltic Real Estate’s consolidated net operating income from its own properties in 2023
amounted to 2.4 million euros or 19 per cent more than in 2022 (2.03 million euros). INVL Baltic
Real Estate's consolidated income in 2023 comprised 3.6 million euros or 6 per cent more than in
2022 (3.4 million euros), the consolidated rental income from own property increased by 16 per
cent to 2.2 million euros.
The group's net profit in 2023 reached 0.7 million euros, the value of assets under management
increased by 5.6 million euros in 2023, and at the end of the year amounted to 42.1 million euros.
The value of equity at the end of the year reached 23.52 million euros. The equity value per share
was 2.92 euros and increased by 3 per cent (after assessing the dividends paid in 2023) during the
year.
Last year was significant in the development of the object on Vilniaus st. 37 in April, the
maintenance and repair works of the object have been started, upon completion of which at the end
of 2024, we will offer to the market about 2,200 sq.m of leased space on the first and second floors of a high-class office building
and catering facilities on the ground floor.
Last year, we made significant progress in the design of the reconstruction of the buildings located at the intersection of Palangos
and Vilniaus streets in the capital. Currently, together with the design company Viltekta, we are about to complete the preparations
for the technical project of reconstruction of the buildings. We plan that after the reconstruction, the above-ground area of the
complex should increase by approximately 3,600 sq. m.
We are glad that Talent Garden Vilnius managed to maintain the maximum level of occupancy of the space for the fourth year in a
row and continuously improve its financial results. Thanks to the successful operations of Talent Garden Vilnius and other lease
agreements signed in previous periods, in 2023, the net rental income of the object on Palangos st. 4 / Vilniaus st. 33 increased by
19 per cent compared to 2022, and amounted to 1.5 million euros.
In 2023, the premises managed by INVL Baltic Real Estate were characterised by a high occupancy rate and improving operating
results. We are glad that our customers continue to remain loyal and trust INVL Baltic Real Estate as a reliable and long-term
partner. In the coming years, we will continue to meet the expectations of our customers and increase the value for investors.
4.2. OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT
In 2023, the commercial real estate market in the city of Vilnius continued to develop quite rapidly: an area of over 100 thousand
sq. m was offered for rent in newly opened business centres. An area of some 110 thousand sq. m is expected to be added in the
next few years.
In 2023, the vacancy rate of class A business centres reached about 6 per cent, B1 9 per cent, and B2 8 per cent. The price
changes were not significant. In class A business centres, the prices reached EUR 16-20 per sq. m, in B1 EUR 13-15 per sq. m,
and in B2 approx. EUR 10 per sq. m. The high level of inflation in 2022 led to the situation where the price growth of vacant
premises was already registered at the end of 2022 - the beginning of 2023.
The last few years have not been characterised by significant office development in the city of Kaunas. In 2023, the development
of only one business centre with an area of 5000 sq.m designated for own needs was planned. Larger number of offices, i.e., nearly
40 thousand sq.m, will be offered to the market only in 2024 or later.
In 2023, the vacancy of premises in Kaunas business centres was not very high. About 3 per cent of premises in class A business
centres were not leased, and in B1 - approx. 4 per cent of premises. A larger unoccupied area of about 10 percent is registered
only in B2 class offices, as tenants choose to move to more modern premises. It is likely that the greater part of these premises
can be leased before the end of the year due to the lack of supply, however, the opening of business centres under development
will put the greatest pressure on the offices of this segment in the future. No significant changes in the rental price have been
recorded in 2023. Like in the capital city, the main correction of rental prices took place at the end of 2022, as the final picture of
annual inflation emerged. In class A business centres, the prices fluctuated within a range of EUR 12-15 per sq.m, in B1 EUR 9-
12 per sq.m, and in B2 approx. EUR 8-9 per sq. m.
In 2023, revival in the real estate market of Klaipėda is likely not only in the residential but also in the commercial property
segments. In the next few years, it is planned to develop approximately 25 thousand sq.m of new office spaces. Most of them are
located in the Mėmelio business centre and the Tech Zity Klaipėda buildings.
The particularly limited development of business centres has been supporting the extremely low vacancy rates for another half a
year, which, in 2023, reached about 5 per cent in class A business centres, in B1 approx. 2 per cent, and in B2 approx. 4 per
cent. No significant changes in the rental price have been recorded in 2023. Class A premises could be rented for EUR 10-12 per
sq. m, B1 for EUR 7-11 per sq.m, and B2 for EUR 5-7 per sq. m. Due to the low availability of vacant premises and a low
comparative base, there is sufficient room for rental prices to grow, but it is too early to assess whether this potential will be
sufficient to ensure the profitability of new projects.

2023 ANNUAL REPORT | 63
In 2023, Riga’s logistics and storage market increased by about 110 thousand sq. m. This change was mainly due to two built-to-
suit projects developed by the developer VGP. In Riga, the demand for logistics and storage facilities remains stable. Compared to
2022, the vacancy rate increased and reached approx. 2.9 percent. Rental prices range from EUR 4.5 to 5 per sq. m.

Association.

* Net asset value per share and allocated dividends are recalculated considering the changed nominal value per share (EUR 1.45).
** Initial net asset value per share: EUR 2.1014, revaluated by the nominal value per share being EUR 1.45.
*** Considering resolution of the General Shareholders Meeting of the Company that was held on 9 April 2020 on repurchase of own shares of the
Company due to material changes in the incorporation documents of the Company, the net asset value as of 30 April 2020 is announced. According
to the published net asset value, the shares of the Company were repurchased from the shareholders of the Company who did not vote at the Meeting
regarding material changes in the incorporation documents of the Company and express their wish to do so.
**** If the Company's net asset value on 30 September 2020 were calculated using the redeemable share liability calculated on the basis of the
number of shares actually redeemed and not on the total number of redemption shares submitted, the net asset value would be EUR 28,143,520 or
EUR 2.1567 per share.
***** According to the 23 December 2020 Company’s announcement of the convocation of the General Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting, which
was hold on 14 January 2021, if the shareholders of the Company make the decisions provided in the agenda of the Meeting, the process of buy-back
of shares of Company due to material changes in the incorporation documents of the Company should take place. Therefore, the Company announced
the Company's 30 November 2020 net asset value, according to which, the shares of the Company are repurchased from the shareholders of the
Company who wish so and who did not vote at the Meeting regarding the material changes in the incorporation documents of the Company.
! The Company’s Management Company performing the usual operational control measures, determined that in determining the value of the Company’s
net assets of 30 November 2020 and 31 December 2020, the error occurred. Accordingly, the adjusted values of the Company’s net assets are
presented: (i) the Company’s net asset value as of 30 November 2020 was EUR 28,765,348, or EUR 2.2043 per share. The difference from the
previously announced net asset value is 0.27 percent.(ii) the Companys net asset value as of 31 December 2020 was EUR 28,832,682, or EUR 2.2095
per share. The difference from the previously announced net asset value is 0.13 percent. This discrepancy in the value of the Company’s net assets
did not have any negative consequences for the Company’s shareholders. The Company’s share buy-back, which ran from 25 January 2021 to 25
March 2021 (inclusive), was carried out based on a net asset value of 30 November 2020, that value was 0.27 percent higher than the above revised
net asset value of 30 November 2020. The difference between the incorrect and the net asset value applied during the share buy-back process will be
compensated by the Management Company.

IV. ISSUER’S MANAGING BODIES
12. Structure, authorities, the procedure for appointment and replacement
The management of INVL Baltic Real Estate was transferred to the Management Company INVL Asset Management on 22 December
2016 as the Bank of the Republic of Lithuania granted INVL Baltic Real Estate with the license of the closed-ended type investment
company. From 26 July 2021 till 11 May 2023, the Company had the Supervisory Board. Considering that a new version of the
Republic of Lithuania Law on Companies entered into effect on 30 November 2022 and according to the provisions of section 1 of
article 78 therein, the requirement to form a collegial body with supervisory functions no longer applies to investment companies
specified in the Republic of Lithuania Law on Collective Investment Undertakings with the legal form of a public limited liability
company whose shares are admitted to trading on a regulated market, General Ordinary Shareholders Meeting that was held on 18
April 2023, made a decision to eliminate the Supervisory Board. The Company's management bodies are not formed.
To ensure management efficiency and control of investments, the Management Company formed an Investment Committee of INVL
Baltic Real Estate.
The Management Company is responsible for convening and organizing the highest management body of the Company - the General
Shareholders Meeting.

18. A description of the principal risks and uncertainties
Information, provided in this document, should not be considered complete and covering all aspects of the risk factors associated
with public company's INVL Baltic Real Estate activity and securities. There are only basic risks and their descriptions provided in
this report. Detailed descriptions of the risks are published on the Company's website.
18.1. GENERAL RISK FACTORS IN THE BUSINESS FIELD WHERE THE GROUP OPERATES
General risk
The value of an investment into real estate can fluctuate in the short-term depending on the general economic situation, real estate
lease and sale prices, demand and supply fluctuations. Investments into real estate should be made for a medium or long period in
order that the investor could avoid the risk of short-term price fluctuations. Investments into real estate are related to higher-than-
average risk. If investments are not profitable or in case of other unfavourable circumstances (inability to pay creditors in time),
bankruptcy proceedings can be instituted against the Company. Redemption of the shares is limited, i.e., a shareholder cannot
demand that the Company or the Management Company, which took over its management, would redeem the shares. But a
Shareholder will have a possibility to sell shares in the secondary market.
Real estate development risk
Real estate projects developed by the Company can take longer than planned or cost more than planned and return on investments
of the Company may decrease for this reason. Managing this risk, the Company will assign sufficient resources for control over the
budgets and performance terms of real estate development projects.
Risk of inflation and deflation
There is a risk that in case of inflation the value of a share will grow slower than the inflation, which would result in the return lower
than inflation. In such a case, the real return earned by persons who sold the shares of the Company in the market from increase
in the value of the shares can be smaller than expected. In case of deflation, there would be a risk that the value of the Company’s
investments will decrease by reason of the drop of the general price level.
Macroeconomic environment
Real estate development tends to follow the general developments in the macroeconomic environment. Interest rates,
unemployment, inflation, private consumption, capital expenditure and other macroeconomic indicators have significant influence
on real estate developments and hence the operations and the potential profitability of the Group.
Favourable developments in the macroeconomic environment increase demand for real properties, allow the real estate companies
to increase rent rates of properties and other prices related to activities of the Group. Adverse developments increase pressure on
real estate prices, rent rates and yields. Hence the Group’s results are dependent on general macroeconomic environment and
adverse developments in the environment might lead to reconsideration of some of the Group’s development plans, negative
pressure on prices and rents of the Group’s properties or other changes in relation to the Group’s properties that might have a
material adverse effect on the Group’s business, results of operations, financial condition and profitability.
Cyclicality of the real estate sector
Real estate development is a cyclical sector. The number of real estate related transactions fluctuates significantly depending on
the stage of the real estate cycle. In the Baltic countries has been relatively high lately as a fast growth in prices fuelled by
availability of cheap financing was followed by a steep decline as a result of financial crisis. In the future the Baltic real estate
market might regain the lost momentum, again inflating the price levels, which might be followed by overheating of the market and
downward pressure on the prices, thus, starting the next real estate cycle.

INVL BALTIC REAL ESTATE
2023 ANNUAL REPORT | 89
18.2. RISK FACTORS CHARACTERISTIC OF THE GROUP
Risk of the management and human resources
The success of the Company’s investments will largely depend on decisions taken by persons in the Management Company who are
responsible for management of the Company and on experience and capabilities of the said persons. There is no guarantee that the
same persons will always remain responsible for management of the Company, however efforts will be used that activities of the
Company would always be taken care of by properly qualified persons.
Dependence on external financing
The Group’s cash inflows currently are sufficient to finance operating cash outflows and to pay monthly instalments of repayments
and interests’ payments of bank borrowings. However, further development of the Group’s activities will require substantial amounts
of capital to fund capital expenditures. For this reason, failure to secure adequate levels of external financing might limit the Group’s
growth plans and place it at competitive disadvantage as compared to well-capitalized peers. Failure to obtain external financing
may lead to forced sale of assets at unfavourable prices or even cause insolvency which may have a material adverse effect on the
Group’s business, results of operation or financial condition and may destroy the Shareholders’ value.
Risk related to lease agreements
The Group’s lease agreements may be divided into two categories: non-cancellable fixed-term lease agreements and cancellable
lease agreements entered for an unspecified term. For the cancellable lease agreements, tenants must notify the administrator 1-
6 months in advance if they wish to cancel the rent agreement.
The Group seeks to use both types of agreements, depending on the market situation and the properties in question. Lease
agreements entered for an unspecified term involve nevertheless a risk that many such agreements may be terminated within a
short period of time. The Group aims at renewing the fixed term lease agreements flexibly in cooperation with its tenants. There
are, however, no guarantees that the Group will be successful in this. To prevent tenants from terminating the lease agreements,
the Group may also be forced to agree on the reduction of rent fees. The reduction of rent fees payable to the Group under a large
number of lease agreements and/or concurrent termination of a large number of lease agreements could have a material adverse
effect on the Group’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
Reliance on the administrator of the Company’s property
On 2 January 2013 the Company has entered into an agreement with a third party for property management and administration
services on part of Company’s asset portfolio. An agreement was terminated on 1 January 2018 after the Company’s subsidiary
Proprietas, UAB and the Company signed a property management and administration agreement. The detailed list of buildings,
administered, based on this agreement is provided in Section 2.3. of the Company’s consolidated annual reportInformation about
the Issuer‘s group of companies”. Under this agreement the third party, as an administrator of the property, is committed to
increase Company’s value and maintain high quality of service for buildings’ tenants and employees. In case of change in
administrative prices in the market, new contracts under less favourable conditions can be entered into with administrator, which
may directly influence the increase in Company’s costs.
Interest rate risk
There is a risk that in case of fast recovery of the global economy or increase in inflation, central banks will increase interest rates
and it will be more expensive to service loans in connection with the Company’s investments, therefore, the value of the Company’s
investments can decrease. To avoid this risk, the Management Company shall seek that the Company would get most of its loans
at fixed interest rates. If it seems necessary, the Company shall hedge against interest rate risk when entering relevant transactions.
Rising interest rates will increase the Group’s debt service costs, which will reduce the return on investment. If considered necessary,
the Group will manage interest rate risk by entering financial derivatives’ contracts.
Leverage risk
Leverage risk is related to possible depreciation of real estate objects acquired with borrowed money. The bigger the leverage, the
higher probability of this risk is.
Credit risk
The Company has given and may have given loans to other companies, therefore, in case of deterioration of the financial condition
of those companies, there is a risk that the Company will not get back all the loans granted by it.
Liquidity risk
This is a risk to incur losses due to low liquidity of the market when it becomes difficult to sell assets at the desired time at the
desired price. In management of this risk, the Company will regularly monitor the real estate market, will get ready for the property
sale process in advance, in this way reducing the liquidity risk. Acquiring shares, the Shareholders also assume the risk of securities
liquidity in case of a drop in demand for shares or delisting them from the stock exchange, investors would find it difficult to sell
INVL Baltic Real Estate, code 152105644, Gynėjų str. 14, Vilnius
INVL BALTIC REAL ESTATE
2023 ANNUAL REPORT | 90
them. In case of deterioration of the Company’s financial situation, the demand for shares, as well as their price may decrease.
Liquidity risk also covers the cash flow disruption risk incurred by the Company due to late payments and/or full default on monetary
obligations by insolvent tenants.
Total investment risk
The value of the investment in real estate can vary in the short term, depending on the general economic conditions, rent and
purchase prices of real estate, demand and supply fluctuations, etc. Investment in real estate should be carried out in the medium
and long term, so that the investor could avoid short-term price fluctuations. Investing in real estate is related to higher than
medium risks. Failure of investments of the Group or under other ill-affected circumstances (having been unable to pay for the
creditors) can have a significant adverse effect on the Group’s performance and financial situation or in the worst-case scenario
bankruptcy proceedings may be initiated.
Investment diversification risk
This is a risk that one bad investment can have a significant effect on the results of the Company. To reduce this risk, the Company
will have a sufficient number of different real estate objects in its portfolio, in this way maintaining the proper diversification level.
Tenants’ risk
The Company will seek to let real estate objects at as high prices as possible. Though currently the rent is paid in time (overdue
obligations of tenants are very small and are not significant for activities of the Company), there is a risk that upon change
(deterioration) of the economic situation the tenants will default on their obligations this would have a negative impact on the
profit and cash flows of the Company. In case of late performance of a large part of obligations, the ordinary business of the
Company may be disrupted, it may be necessary to search for additional sources of financing, which may be not always available.
The Company, in case of failure to earn planned income from lease or to maintain a high percentage of occupation of the buildings,
can face the problem of costs that are not compensated by permanent tenants. This risk may manifest itself in case of big increase
in the supply of rented premises and reduction in demand, drop-in rental fees. In case of a failure to let the premises at planned
prices or in planned scopes, also in case current tenants terminate their lease agreements, the income of the Company could
decrease, whereas fixed costs would remain the same. Accordingly, the profit of the Company would decrease.
Risk of valuation of the Company’s assets
The assets of the Company will be evaluated according to the main rules set in the Articles of Association and the Accounting Policy
of the Management Company. Valuation of individual assets held by the Company shall be performed by the independent appraiser,
however such valuation of assets shall be only determining the value of the assets, which does not automatically mean the exact
sale price of an investment held by the Company, which depends on many circumstances, for example, economic and other
conditions, which cannot be controlled. Thus, the sale price of investments held by the Company can be higher or lower than the
value of assets determined by a property appraiser.
Competition risk
The Company, investing into investment objects, will compete with other investors, including, without limitation, with other
investment companies or real estate investment funds. Thus, there is a risk that competition with other investors will demand that
the Company would conduct transactions at less favourable conditions than it would be possible in other cases.
18.3. RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE COMPANY’S SHARES (INVESTMENTS THERETO)
Market risk
Acquisition of shares entails the risk to incur losses due to unfavourable changes in the share price in the market. A drop in the
price of the shares can be caused by negative changes in the value of assets and profitability of the Company, general share market
trends in the region and in the world. Trade in shares can depend on comments of financial brokers and analysts and announced
independent analyses about the Company and its activities. If the analysts give an adverse opinion about prospects of the shares,
this can also have a negative effect on the price of shares in the market. In assessing shares, non-professional investors are advised
to address intermediaries of public trading or other specialists in this field for help.
Dividend payment risk
Though the Company has approved its dividend payment policy, payment of dividend to Shareholders is not guaranteed and will
depend on profitability of activities, investments plans and the general financial situation.
Liquidity of the Issuer’s shares is not guaranteed
It may be possible that in case an investor wants to urgently sell the Issuer’s securities (especially a large number of them), demand
for them on the exchange will not be sufficient. Therefore, sale of shares can take some more time, or the investor may be forced
to sell shares at a lower price. Analogous consequences could appear after the exclusion of the Company’s shares from the
Secondary List of Nasdaq. Besides, in case of deterioration of the Company’s financial situation, demand for the shares of the
Company and, at the same time, their price may decrease.

2023 ANNUAL REPORT | 91
18.4. THE MOST IMPORTANT RISK FACTORS DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD
In 2023 the most important risk factor remained Interest rate risk. A description of the risk factor and a brief commentary:
As in the year 2022 the Company was operating in the face of high inflation. To stabilize and lower inflation, central banks continued
to raise base interest rates. The Company pays variable interest rates for credits linked to Euribor, as a result of which its increase
in 2023 increased the amount of interest paid by the Company, which had a negative impact on the results. In 2023 in the second
half, interest growth slowed down and stabilized. In 2024 it is expected that central banks will start a policy of reducing base interest
rates, which should stabilize the impact of this risk.
Interest rate risk
There is a risk that in case of fast recovery of the global economy or increase in inflation, central banks will increase interest rates
and it will be more expensive to service loans in connection with the Company’s investments, therefore, the value of the Company’s
investments can decrease. To avoid this risk, the Management Company shall seek that the Company would get most of its loans
at fixed interest rates. If it seems necessary, the Company shall hedge against interest rate risk when entering relevant transactions.
Rising interest rates will increase the Group’s debt service costs, which will reduce the return on investment. If considered necessary,
the Group will manage interest rate risk by entering financial derivatives’ contracts.

APPENDIX 5. REMUNERATION REPORT
Brief overview of the Company's activities in 2023
INVL Baltic Real Estate’s consolidated net operating income from its own properties in 2023 amounted to 2.4 million euros or 19
per cent more than in 2022 (2.03 million euros). INVL Baltic Real Estate's consolidated income in 2023 comprised 3.6 million euros
or 6 per cent more than in 2022 (3.4 million euros), the consolidated rental income from own property increased by 16 per cent to
2.2 million euros.
The group's net profit in 2023 reached 0.7 million euros, the value of assets under management increased by 5.6 million euros in
2023, and at the end of the year amounted to 42.1 million euros. The value of equity at the end of the year reached 23.52 million
euros. The equity value per share was 2.92 euros and increased by 3 per cent (after assessing the dividends paid in 2023) during
the year.
In 2023, the premises managed by INVL Baltic Real Estate were characterised by a high occupancy rate and improving operating
results. In the coming years, we will continue to meet the expectations of our customers and increase the value for investors.
Management of the company
The management of INVL Baltic Real Estate is delegated to UAB INVL Asset Management (hereinafter “the Management
Company), which also performs the functions of the Board and Managers of INVL Baltic Real Estate. Given that and taking into
account the fact that INVL Baltic Real Estate has to approve the remuneration policy (hereinafter referred to as the Policy) in
accordance with Article 37
3
of the Law on Companies of the Republic of Lithuania, it is established that the Company is subject to
the Policy of the Management Company, the provisions of which are adapted in order to reveal as much as possible the transparency
of remuneration of the persons considered to be managers of INVL Baltic Real Estate, the accountability of the management and to
enable the shareholders, potential investors and stakeholders to get a comprehensive and reliable picture of the wages paid to each
manager of INVL Baltic Real Estate. Moreover, from 26 July 2021 until 11 May 2023 the Company had a collegial supervisory body
the Supervisory Board. The General Meeting of Shareholders, held on 29 April 2021 approved the Remuneration Policy of the
Supervisory Board of the Company. For the purposes of this Report, the General manager of the Management Company, members
of the Board of the Management Company, members of the Investment Committee appointed by the Management Company
(hereinafter referred to as the Management) and the members of the Supervisory Board of the Company (hereinafter referred to
as the members of the Supervisory Board) were considered to be managers of INVL Baltic Real Estate. Considering that a new
version of the Republic of Lithuania Law on Companies entered into effect on 30 November 2022 and according to the provisions of
Section 1 of Article 78 therein, the requirement to form a collegial body with supervisory functions no longer applies to investment
companies specified in the Republic of Lithuania Law on Collective Investment Undertakings with the legal form of a public limited
liability company whose shares are admitted to trading on a regulated market, General Ordinary Shareholders Meeting that was
held on 18 April 2023, made a decision to eliminate the Company’s collegial body with a supervisory function the Supervisory
Board, therefore, from 11 May 2023 the Remuneration Policy of the Supervisory Board of the Company is no longer relevant.
Official monthly wage
The regular remuneration of the Management includes the official monthly wage, employee fees and additional benefits granted
irrespective of the performance results and paid to all employees meeting the established criteria in accordance with the procedure
in force in the Management Company (e.g. pension contributions to II or III pillar pension funds). In addition to the official monthly
wage or remuneration received in a different form, a supplementary component may be paid - the variable wage allocated depending
on the fulfilment of the Company's annual business plan and/or budget and the fulfilment of the Management's individual plans and
tasks. The official monthly wage is determined in such a way as to ensure proper proportions between the official monthly wage
and the bonus components. The official monthly wage constitutes a sufficiently high proportion of the total remuneration paid so
that it makes it possible to implement a flexible incentive policy.
Bonuses and the procedure for payment thereof
A bonus, including the deferred part thereof, may be granted and/or paid to the Management only in the case of a sustainable
financial situation in the Company, taking into account the Company's performance results, and only if the results of the annual
individual assessment of the Management are positive. In assessing the individual performance results of the Management, non-
financial criteria, such as adherence to internal rules and procedures, communication with clients and investors, compliance with
rules, enhancement of professional qualifications, etc., are also taken into account. If the financial performance results of the
Company in a given year are negative or the Company has failed to achieve the established business objectives, the Company has
the right to make a decision not to pay the bonus or part thereof, or to reduce the amount of previously estimated bonus, as well
as the payment of such amounts earned previously, by defining the period of such non-payment or reduction. No such adjustment
or deferral was applied during the reporting period. Likewise, the Board of the Management Company is entitled to demand that
the Management refunds all or part of the bonus paid to it if it subsequently becomes clear that the bonus was paid to it as a result
of the Management's bad faith or errors in the accounts.
The bonus is paid to Management in cash in accordance with the following payment terms:
60 per cent of the bonus amount is paid as a lump-sum under the procedure and within the time frames established in the
order of the Management Company’s General Manager or in the decision of the Board of the Company.
the remaining portion of 40 per cent is paid to the employee on a pro rata basis within three years, i.e. the deferred portion
of the bonus is distributed proportionally over the entire deferral period, beginning not earlier than 1 year after the end of
INVL Baltic Real Estate, code 152105644, Gynėjų str. 14, Vilnius
INVL BALTIC REAL ESTATE
2023 ANNUAL REPORT | 119
the employee’s performance assessment and is paid on a yearly basis by disbursing the portion of the bonus calculated pro
rata. In individual cases, the competent body of the Management Company has the right to decide on a longer deferral period,
usually not longer than 5 years, taking into consideration the business cycle and performance of activities of the Management
Company and/or respective collective investment undertaking and other criteria provided for in the legislation.
The Management Company shall not apply the requirement to mandatorily pay the bonus in financial instruments. However, if the
Management Company provides for such possibility, the bonus may, at the employee’s choice, be paid in financial instruments or
equivalent instruments (share options, contributions to the pension fund, insurance instalments).
Upon termination of the employment relationship, before the bonus is paid, regardless of the grounds for termination of the
employment relationship, the deferred part of the bonus payable will not be paid out.
The variable remuneration component for 2023 will be allocated in 2024, after the approval of the financial statements for 2023. In
the allocation of this portion of the remuneration, account will be taken, inter alia, of the real estate purchase transaction carried
out by INVL Baltic Real Estate during the reporting period. More information about the transaction is available at:
https://view.news.eu.nasdaq.com/view?id=b2f72c6e21372737bfad242283c1e8e3e&lang=en
The remunerations of the General Manager and Board members of the Management Company are calculated on the basis of the
proportion of the Management Company's management income (including management and success fee revenues) received from
the Company within the total income of the Management Company. The remunerations of the members of the Investment
Committee of the Company are calculated in accordance with the part of the time actually allocated to the Company's management.
Amounts of remuneration allocated and paid to Management for the years 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 are presented in the tables

**Other members of the Management did not receive remuneration from other companies of the Group of the Company.
As a rule, the bonus is paid in cash. The Management Company, in accordance with the principle of proportionality, does not apply
the requirement regarding the mandatory payment of the bonus in financial instruments. The managers of the Company are not
granted shares of the Company, nor are there any share options for the Company's shares with them. In accordance with the Policy
of the Management Company in force in the Company, the portion of the variable remuneration allocated to the employee of the
Management Company (all or part of it) may be allocated in the options of AB Invalda INVL. Their pro rata payment is realised
through the assignment of shares (i.e. the grant or obtaining of the right to acquire the relevant quantities of shares at different
terms) under the procedures and conditions laid down in the option agreements.
Comparison of wages allocated and paid over the last five years
Due to the fact that the management of the Company is delegated to the Management Company and its management bodies are
not formed, and the Company itself does not have employees, the annual changes in remuneration and the full-time equivalent
changes in average remuneration, based on the employees of the Company who are not members of the management bodies,
cannot be compared. It is also not possible to provide information on the annual changes in the remuneration of the members of
the Supervisory Board and the average remuneration, as the members of the Supervisory Board do not receive remuneration.
Since only the remunerations of the members of the Investment Committee of the Company are calculated on the basis of the
actual part of the time allocated to the management of the Company and their remunerations depend on the performance of the

Independent auditor’s report
To the shareholders of INVL Baltic Real Estate Special Closed-End Type Real Estate Investment
Company AB
Report on the audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements
Our opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated and separate financial statements give a true and fair view of the
consolidated and separate financial position of INVL Baltic Real Estate Special Closed-End Type Real
Estate Investment Company AB (the Company) and its subsidiaries (together - the Group) as at
31 December 2023, and of the Group’s and the Company’s consolidated and separate financial
performance and consolidated and separate cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
Our opinion is consistent with our additional report to the Audit Committee dated 19 March 2024.
What we have audited
The Group’s consolidated and the Company’s separate financial statements comprise:
the consolidated and Company’s statements of comprehensive income for the year then ended 31
December 2023;
the consolidated and Company’s statement of financial position as at 31 December 2023;
the consolidated and Company’s statements of changes in equity for the year then ended;
the consolidated and Company’s statements of cash flows for the year then ended; and
the notes to the separate and consolidated financial statements, comprising material accounting
policy information and other explanatory information.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the
audit of the financial statements section of our report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.
Independence
We are independent of the Group and the Company in accordance with the International Code of
Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) issued by the
International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code) and the Law of the Republic of
Lithuania on the Audit of Financial Statements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated and
Company’s financial statements in the Republic of Lithuania. We have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with the IESBA Code and the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on the
Audit of Financial Statements.
To the best of our knowledge and belief, we declare that non-audit services that we have provided to
the Group and the Company are in accordance with the applicable law and regulations in the Republic
of Lithuania and that we have not provided non-audit services that are prohibited under Article 5(1) of
Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 considering the exemptions of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 endorsed
in the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on the Audit of Financial Statements.
No non-audit services were provided to the Group and the Company, in the period from
1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023.
Our audit approach
Overview
Overall Group and Company: € 235 thousand and € 235 thousand,
representing 1% of total equity of the Group and the Company,
respectively.
The full scope audit was performed for the Company. The Group
engagement team performed audit work on the selected balances
and transactions of subsidiaries, which were assessed as material
from the Group audit perspective.
Our audit scope covered approximately 99% of the Group’s
revenues and 99% of the Group’s total assets.
Valuation of investment properties
As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material
misstatement in the consolidated and Company’s financial statements (together “the financial
statements”). In particular, we considered where management made subjective judgements; for
example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and
considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the
risk of management override of internal controls, including, among other matters, consideration of
whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
Materiality
The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. An audit is designed to obtain
reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if individually or in
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on
the basis of the financial statements.
Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality,
including the overall Group and Company materiality for the financial statements as a whole as set out
in the table below. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope
of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of
misstatements, if any, both individually and in aggregate on the financial statements as a whole.
Overall Group and Company
materiality
Overall materiality applied to the Group and the Company
amounted to € 235 thousand and € 235 thousand (2022:
235 thousand and € 235 thousand), respectively.
How we determined it
1% of total equity of the Group and the Company,
respectively.
Materiality
Group
scoping
Key audit
matters
Rationale for the materiality
benchmark applied
We chose the Group’s and the Company’s equity as the
benchmark because, in our view, it is an appropriate
measure of underlying performance, and it is the benchmark
against which the performance of the Company, the Group
and other companies in this industry is most commonly
measured by users, and it is a generally accepted
benchmark. The key driver of the business and determinant
of the Group’s and the Company’s value is investments into
various properties. For this reason, the key area of focus in
the audit of the financial statements of the Group and the
Company is the valuation of investment properties.
Accordingly, an overall Group and Company materiality was
based on total equity.
We chose 1 %, which is within the range of acceptable
quantitative materiality thresholds.
We agreed with the Audit Committee that we would report to them misstatements identified during our
audit above € 23.5 thousand, the same for the Group and the Company, as well as misstatements
below that amount that, in our view, warranted reporting for qualitative reasons.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in
our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the
context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we
do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Our procedures in relation to management’s
valuation of investment properties included as
follows:
• evaluation of the independent external valuers’
competence, capabilities and objectivity;
• assessment of the methodologies used and
appropriateness of key assumptions based on our
knowledge of real estate industry;
• testing, on a sample basis, whether specific
information supplied to the valuers reflected the
underlying property records held by the Group
and Company;
• testing the data inputs underpinning the
valuation for a sample of properties, including
rental income, capital expenditure, by agreeing
them back to the supporting documentation;
• testing of investment properties additions with
supporting documents.
Because of the subjectivity involved in
determining the value of investment properties
and existence of alternative assumptions and
valuation methods, we have reviewed the
sensitivity analysis of the fair value of investment
properties to changes in key assumptions, which
was prepared by the Group's and Company’s
management.
How we tailored our Group audit scope
We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an
opinion on the consolidated the financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of
the Group, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Group operates.
The Group consists of 6 entities: the Company and its subsidiaries, three subsidiaries located in
Lithuania and two subsidiaries located in Latvia. The Group engagement team conducted audit work
covering all significant reporting entities in Lithuania as well as in Latvia. We performed audit work on
the selected balances and transactions of subsidiaries, which were assessed as material from the
Group audit perspective. The Group’s consolidation and the financial statements disclosures were
audited by the group engagement team. Our work addressed approximately 99% of the Group’s
revenues and 99% of the Group’s total assets.
Reporting on other information including the consolidated annual report
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
consolidated annual report, including the corporate governance report and the remuneration report
(but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon).
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information, including the
consolidated annual report.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially
inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears
to be materially misstated.
With respect to the consolidated annual report, including the corporate governance report and the
remuneration report, we considered whether the consolidated annual report, including the corporate
governance report and the remuneration report, includes the disclosures required by the Law of the
Republic of Lithuania on Consolidated Reporting by Groups of Undertakings, the Law of the Republic
of Lithuania on Reporting by Undertakings.
Based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit, in our opinion:
the information given in the consolidated annual report, including the corporate governance report
and the remuneration report, for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared,
is consistent with the financial statements; and
the consolidated annual report, including the corporate governance report and the remuneration
report, has been prepared in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on
Consolidated Reporting by Groups of Undertakings and the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on
Reporting by Undertakings.
In addition, in light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the Company and their
environment obtained in the course of the audit, we are required to report if we have identified material
misstatements in the consolidated annual report which we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s
report. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the financial
statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair
view in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European
Union, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the
preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s and the
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to
liquidate the Group and the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do
so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group’s and the Company’s
financial reporting process.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that
an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on
the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit
evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error,
as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override
of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Group and the Company’s internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events
or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s and Company’s ability to continue as
a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw
attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such
disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit
evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may
cause the Group and the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or
business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial
statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit.
We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned
scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in
internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant
ethical requirements regarding independence and have communicated with them all relationships and
other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,
actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters
that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are
therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or
regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we
determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse
consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of
such communication.
Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
Report on the compliance of the format of the consolidated financial statements with the
requirements of the European Single Electronic Reporting Format
We have been engaged based on the amendment to our audit agreement by the management of the
Company to conduct a reasonable assurance engagement for the verification of compliance with the
applicable requirements of the European single electronic reporting format of the Group’s consolidated
financial statements, including the consolidated annual report, for the year ended 31 December 2023
(the “Single Electronic Reporting Format of the consolidated financial statements”).
Description of a subject matter and applicable criteria
The Single Electronic Reporting Format of the consolidated financial statements has been applied by
the management of the Company to comply with the requirements of art. 3 and 4 of the Commission
Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 of 17 December 2018 supplementing Directive 2004/109/EC of
the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to regulatory technical standards on the
specification of a single electronic reporting format (the “ESEF Regulation”). The applicable
requirements regarding the Single Electronic Reporting Format of the consolidated financial
statements are contained in the ESEF Regulation.
The requirements described in the preceding sentence determine the basis for application of the
Single Electronic Reporting Format of the consolidated financial statements and, in our view,
constitute appropriate criteria to form a reasonable assurance conclusion.
Responsibility of the management and those charged with governance
The management of the Company is responsible for the application of the Single Electronic Reporting
Format of the consolidated financial statements that complies with the requirements of the ESEF
Regulation.
This responsibility includes the selection and application of appropriate markups in iXBRL using ESEF
taxonomy and designing, implementing and maintaining internal controls relevant for the preparation
of the Single Electronic Reporting Format of the consolidated financial statements which is free from
material non-compliance with the requirements of the ESEF Regulation.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process, which
should also be understood as the preparation of financial statements in accordance with the format
resulting from the ESEF Regulation.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility was to express a reasonable assurance conclusion whether the Single Electronic
Reporting Format of the consolidated financial statements complies, in all material aspects, with the
ESEF Regulation.
We conducted our engagement in accordance with International Standard on Assurance
Engagements 3000 (Revised) ‘Assurance Engagements other than Audits and Reviews of Historical
Financial Information’ (ISAE 3000 (R)”). This standard requires that we comply with ethical
requirements, plan and perform procedures to obtain reasonable assurance whether the Single
Electronic Reporting Format of the consolidated financial statements complies, in all material aspects,
with the applicable requirements.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but it does not guarantee that the service
performed in accordance ISAE 3000 (R) will always detect the existing material misstatement
(significant non-compliance with the requirements).
Summary of the work performed
Our planned and performed procedures were aimed at obtaining reasonable assurance that the
Single Electronic Reporting Format of the consolidated financial statements was applied, in all material
aspects, in accordance with the applicable requirements and such application is free from material
errors or omissions. Our procedures included in particular:
obtaining an understanding of the internal control system and processes relevant to the
application of the Single Electronic Reporting Format of the consolidated financial statements,
including the preparation of the XHTML format and marking up the consolidated financial
statements;
verification whether the XHTML format was applied properly;
evaluating the completeness of marking up the consolidated financial statements using the iXBRL
markup language according to the requirements of the implementation of single electronic format
as described in the ESEF Regulation;
evaluating the appropriateness of the Group’s' use of XBRL markups selected from the ESEF
taxonomy and the creation of extension markups where no suitable element in the ESEF
taxonomy has been identified; and
evaluating the appropriateness of anchoring of the extension elements to the ESEF taxonomy.
We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
conclusion.
Conclusion
In our opinion, the Single Electronic Reporting Format of the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended 31 December 2023 complies, in all material aspects, with the ESEF Regulation.
