8. Significant events regarding the affiliated parties
The significant projects of the affiliated company IPTO S.A. that were completed in 2021 or are still in progress are
mentioned below:
Brief Description of the most important projects
1. Cyclades Interconnection
Cyclades interconnection project has been designated as a project of "major importance for the country's economy". The
project aims on the one hand to increase the reliability of power supply of the interconnected Islands and on the other
hand to reduce production costs (oil substitution with other energy sources, in relation to the evolution of the power
generation mix in the mainland).
The project design was formed with a view to minimizing environmental disturbance on the islands. In this regard, the
new substations on the islands have been located near the seashore to prevent the construction of overhead transmission
lines on the islands, while the interconnection of the islands with the Continental System is planned through submarine
cable connections. According to the above, IPTO is implementing the project in phases:
Phase A
The implementation of Phase A, budgeted at Euro 264,3 million includes the connection of Syros with Lavrio, as well as
with the Islands of Paros, Mykonos and Tinos, was completed in 2018.
Phase Β
The implementation of Phase B of the Cyclades interconnection, budgeted at Euro 47,3 million, which included the
connection of the island of Naxos with the islands of Paros and Mykonos, was completed in 2020.
Phase C
The Phase C of the Cyclades interconnection was set in normal operation with temporary connection in Syros in October
2020 and with final connection in June 2021. It includes the lay of the second cable between Lavrio – Syros, as well as
with the required connection works (shunt reactors and bays) in Lavrio and Syros.
The aim of Phase C is to ensure the required reliability for all operating conditions, depending on the evolution of the
demand of the interconnected Islands. Upon completion of the Phase C, full reliability of power supply of the Cyclades
complex is ensured for the foreseen time horizon of operation of the project.
In any case, even after the construction of all phases of the project, production capacity should be maintained in the
islands, so that it is possible to deal with emergencies.
The project with a budget of Euro 122,3 million is co-financed by the European Union and the NSRF 2014-2020.
Phase D
Τhe implementation of the fourth and last phase of the Cyclades interconnection, amounting to 410 million euros,
launched in 2021, including the interconnection of the islands of Thira, Milos, Folegandros and Serifos with the mainland
Electricity Transmission System (HETS).
\ADMIE HOLDING S.A.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR-ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2018
(In thousand euro unless otherwise stated)

The tendering procedures for the interconnection of Thira have been completed and the supply and installation contracts
for the Naxos-Thira cable line and the Substation & SVC of Thira have already been signed. Also, the tenders for the
connection of the islands of Milos, Folegandros and Serifos with the HETS have been announced.
The submarine connection of Thira is expected to be electrified within the first semester of 2023, while the other islands
is expected to be interconnected with the HETS within the first semester of 2024. The completion of Cyclades
interconnection will enable the development of RES units with a total capacity of 332 MW on the islands, in accordance
with the estimations reflected in the Ten-Year Development Plan 2022-2031, achieving a more stable, green and
economical energy mix for the island complex.
The project has been approved for co-financing by the Recovery and Resilience Facility.
2. Crete Interconnection
The System of Crete is characterized by:
• Very high variable production costs due to the use of oil in local power stations, which is reflected in a very
significant burden on consumers to cover Public Service Obligations (PSOs).
• High annual rate of increase of the island's load. It is noted that the load during the summer months is marginally
covered by the local Stations.
• The great difficulty or even the impossibility of finding spaces and ensuring licenses to strengthen the local
Stations or develop new ones.
• The growing interest in exploiting the rich local RES potential, the penetration of which into the island power
mixture is limited due to technical limitations (mainly important stability issues that can be created by the high
penetration of RES in an autonomous electrical system such as that of Crete).
• Low level of supply reliability, particularly in cases of damage to the power system.
The above characteristics make the interconnection of Crete with HETS a necessary project in terms of the feasibility of
its implementation.
Interconnection of Crete with the Peloponnese
The Crete - Peloponnese Interconnection constitutes the first phase of Crete's interconnection with HETS. The Crete-
Peloponnese interconnection of alternative current is implemented with 2 circuits of alternative current 150 kV, with a
nominal capacity of 200 MVA each. After a thorough investigation into the operation and power adequacy of the electrical
system of Crete, it established that the power, which can be safely transmitted through this Alternative Current
connection, ranges from 150 MW to 180 MW, depending on the operating conditions.
Within 2020 the substations in Peloponnese and Chania, the underground cable lines in Crete and Peloponnese, the first
submarine cable line and almost the overall works of the overhead lines in Peloponnese were completed and as a result,
the successful trial electrification of the interconnection took place in December 2020. The second submarine cable line,
the final arrangements of the overhead lines in Peloponnese and STATCOM were completed gradually till May 2021 and
from this point on the interconnection was ready to operate with loads. In July 2021 the interconnection was set in
operation with loads and since then it remains in normal operation.
The project has cost Euro 374,5 million (including preliminary expenses), it was co-financed by the European Union and
NSRF 2014-2020 and was funded by the European Investment Bank.
Crete- Attica Interconnection (Phase ΙΙ of Crete Interconnection)
This project is the natural continuation of the project of the small interconnection of Crete – Peloponnese and it serves
the same purposes by further strengthening the island's security of power supply along with the need to increase the
ability to absorb generation of electrical power from RES. At the same time, a further significant reduction in the Public
Utilities (SGI) charges is expected for all consumers of the system in the Greek Territory.

This project is carried out by the 100% subsidiary of IPTO, “ARIADNE INTERCONNECTION SINGLE MEMBER S.P.S.A.", which
was established based on the decisions of RAE 816/2018 and 838/2018 as an implementing body, and whose sole purpose
is the construction and financing of the project. In addition, it has been assigned the selection of companies that will
enter contracts with IPTO and will be in charge of maintaining the system for 10 years, for which IPTO will be responsible.
The property, ownership, operation of the cable and the technical specifications provided to the contractors for the cable
construction are the responsibility of IPTO (as administrator and owner of HETS). The asset will belong to IPTO and is
presented in its own financial statements. So, throughout the project implementation by Ariadne, the fixed assets belong
to IPTO and are reflected respectively in the financial statements of IPTO and after its electrification, the project is
integrated in HETS, the ownership and management of which belong exclusively to IPTO.
This project consists of two sub-projects: The first relates to the "Study, Supply and Installation of cables and electrode
stations for the electrical interconnection of direct current between Crete and Attica (2 x 500 MW)" and the second to
the "Study, Supply and Installation of two Conversion Stations and a Substation for the Electrical Interconnection of direct
current, between Crete and Attica (2 x 500 MW)".
The design - construction works by the contractors are in full deployment. Specifically, regarding the Conversion Stations,
the production of their equipment has started, while preliminary construction works have also started. Regarding the
progress of the cable section, the lay of the east pole by half according to schedule as well as the lay of the optical fibers
has been completed in total. In addition, the production of the last sections of cables (submarine and underground) is
completed. Finally, the construction of the underground part of the route from HVC Koumoundourou to the landing point
in Attica is in progress.
The project with a budget of 1,044 billion euros has been included in the specialization of the Operational Program
"Competitiveness, Entrepreneurship and Innovation 2014-2020" (EPANEK) with No. 4101/1467 / A1 / 25-6-2019 decision
of the Monitoring Committee for funding from NSRF 2014-2020.
3. System extension 400 kV to the Peloponnese
The expansion of the 400 kV system to Megalopolis (with the subsequent creation of a 400 kV loop Patras - Megalopolis
- Corinth) dramatically increases the ability to transmit to and from the Peloponnese, enables the development of RES
and thermal power stations, significantly improves the margin of stability of voltages for the Southern System and
ensures the Peloponnese in any combination of power generation and load conditions. In addition, it strongly connects
the power station of Megalopolis with the high load areas (Attica and Patras area) and contributes to the achievement
of isobaric development of the Power Generation and Transmission Systems in the Southern Complex. Finally, it should
be emphasized that the development of the 400 kV system towards the Peloponnese contributes to the reduction of
the total losses of HETS.
Megalopolis project co-financed by NSRF 2007-2013 and part of the expansion projects was funded by the European
Investment Bank.
West Corridor (Megalopolis - Patras - West Sterea)
The construction of a new high voltage center in Megalopolis is important for the Peloponnese region. The high-voltage
center of Megalopolis, which was fully operational in 2014, was needed to connect the new production unit in
Megalopolis ("Megalopolis V" unit), to increase penetration by RES in the Peloponnese and to support voltages at high

Outlook for 2022
IPTO seeks to develop into a modern Operator, a company utilizing its infrastructure and know-how, adapted to the
needs of the country and the challenges of the present and the future. IPTO through cutting edge technologies and
good governance is being transformed to meet European and international requirements for energy transition and
sustainable development. The movement towards the future is twofold as it pertains to both the main activity of
energy transfer, taking into account the environmental footprint of the operation and the local communities in which it
operates, as well as its internal status: the modernization of its internal processes, health and safety, empowerment
and training of its personnel as the main transformative body of the company.
The 2022 Strategy enriches and strengthens the strategy of the previous year, integrating in its entirety the dimension of
sustainability and addressing the challenges of climate change.
The strategic priorities of the Group are summarized below:
• Security, reliability, and durability in a difficult and changing environment
Enhancing the Durability of the System
IPTO implements technological upgrades and modernization of the System that ensure the adequacy, security, stability,
and reliability of the energy transmission network. It integrates modern maintenance and monitoring technologies of the
network to deal in a timely manner with the potential risks that arise internally and externally. The digitization of services
and operational internal processes, that is, the transformation into a Digital Electricity Transmission Operator (Digital
TSO), can make a decisive contribution to achieving the goals of the transition to a sustainable future for the organization,
a transition harmonized with modern cyber challenges and the strict standards in the management of sensitive data that
require it.
• Utilization of infrastructure and know-how for value-added services
Expansion of the company's activities by utilizing its potential
IPTO looks forward to its transformation into a technological company for the development of infrastructure and know-
how, through investments aimed at the seamless and with the smallest possible environmental footprint, provision of its
services. IPTO Group, in addition to TL, HVC and Sub-Stations, has large areas of land, building infrastructure and a
corporate fleet in its asset base. Additional assets are added to its asset base, such as fiber optics and data centers.
Utilizing the real estate and mobile assets, it is possible to create added value, in addition to that produced by its main
activity, for its shareholders based on the public interest, contributing to the digital transformation of the country. IPTO
also has significant know-how, which in collaboration with research institutions and universities can create innovation
hubs by contributing to the introduction of new technologies, such as energy storage technologies, critical infrastructure
monitoring technologies, infrastructure that supports the "green” transition (eg charging stations) and related consulting
services.
• Network development and energy transition
IPTO helps the transition to a decarbonized economy
The interconnection of the islands with the mainland, the integration in the network of more remote RES production and
storage stations, the further interconnections with networks of other TSOs, ensure the energy security and at the same
time the lowest possible surcharge on the final consumer. The decarbonation and the energy transition are completely
intertwined with IPTO's vision for a greener future. The gradual reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and energy savings

(In thousand euro unless otherwise stated)
19
in its facilities, the way of processing and operating of its systems, the facilitation of procedures for faster regulation of
RES connection requests to the network, research and development of new technologies, contribute significantly towards
a functional model of minimized emission of indirect or direct pollutants.
• People, environment and governance
Caring for our people, for society and environment
IPTO ensures the creation of a safe working environment of equal opportunities, with respect for diversity. It collaborates
with local communities, as part of its activities, in order to accelerate the necessary energy transition in terms of inclusion
and value creation locally. The improvement based on the best European practices of working conditions and the
cooperation of IPTO with the local communities, are practices that improve the efficiency of the organization, make it
more attractive in terms of attracting the appropriate scientific and technical staff and strengthen the sense of reciprocity
in areas where it operates. An important aspect of these practices is the transparency of procedures through the
establishment of appropriate mechanisms and the ongoing consultation of stakeholders. Still, an important goal is to
reduce as much as possible the effects on the environment and biodiversity due to the nature of its work involving
interventions in the natural landscape. The use and utilization of new technologies in recording systems and equipment,
the use of recyclable materials and "cyclical" specifications and the creation of a "green" value chain aim to minimize the
environmental impact.
10. Non – financial information
10.1 OBLIGATION OF NON-FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The introduction of the obligation to prepare a non-financial statement, which is included in the management report and
its publication, is able to help identify risks to the viability of a company and to strengthen investor and consumer
confidence, as well as and facilitate sustainable financing by combining long-term profitability with social justice and
environmental protection. One of the objectives in this case is that by making the relevant information available to the
interested parties, they are given the opportunity to take these parameters into account when making their investment
or other decisions. However, the relevant obligation according to the Law has the large public limited companies which
are entities of public interest, within the meaning of Annex A of Law 4308/2014 and which, at the closing date of their
balance sheet, exceed the average number of five hundred (500) employees during the financial year. Consequently, and
in accordance with the above, IPTO Holdings SA does not have this obligation due to its size (2 employees), nevertheless
Sustainable Development is fully integrated in its strategy, based on the commitment to continuous improvement of
performance related to the environment, health and safety at work, the development of people and the support of local
communities.
10.2 Elements of Sustainable Development of the affiliated company IPTO Group SA
Over time, IPTO Group's targeting, in the context of its role as Operator of the Hellenic Electricity Transmission System,
focuses on continuous improvement and value creation for all its social partners, thus contributing to the sustainable
development of the entire country. In this context, IPTO recognizes the importance of improved performance in
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG - Environmental, Social, Governance) and implements several programs and
practices aimed at their optimal management. At the same time, the role of IPTO as Operator of the Hellenic Electricity
Transmission System carries an increased weight for sustainable development at the national level. As the energy mix in
Greece is changing rapidly, IPTO is a factor of facilitating and accelerating this transition, exploring more and more new

Energy transition and increased RES integration
IPTO is responsible for implementing the country’s large-scale interconnections paving the way for green investments
and increased integration of RES into the HETS. Such projects produce important benefits for the society, the environment
and the economy.
Reduction in the cost of energy production as well as carbon intensity (decarbonization), alongside reduction in
atmospheric pollution, are achieved through the reduction of air emissions due to fossil fuel combustion.
Responding to effects of climate change
The steadily accelerating course of climate change causes an increasing number of adverse effects of rising tension, while
at the same time climate change has a chronic impact on the environment and human beings.
IPTO’s strategic planning takes into account the new conditions created by climate change in order to adapt to the new
environment. Based on the current data and upcoming changes, the Company identifies the risks associated with climate
change, as well as the potential opportunities.
In this regard, one of the pillars of the new IPTO Strategy for the years 2021-2024 is to achieve security and reliability in
a difficult environment. Specifically, IPTO accelerates and expands the System’s asset renewal program, aiming to the
renewal of all critical equipment of the System by the end of 2023.
\ADMIE HOLDING S.A.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR-ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2018
(In thousand euro unless otherwise stated)
27
This planning considers a number of parameters, including climate parameters which change at multiple levels, as the
occurrence of extreme weather phenomena is now more and more frequent in our country.
At the same time, IPTO’s contribution to climate mitigation is particularly important at a national level. New
interconnections enable the change of the country’s energy mix by allowing the integration of a greater percentage of
RES, and thus contribute to the transition to a low-carbon economy and the gradual decarbonization.
Reduction of the environmental footprint
Environmental protection is one of IPTO’s main priorities, both in the context of its operation and the new projects being
implemented. In this direction, all necessary measures are taken in order to achieve a reduction of the Company's
environmental footprint to a minimum.
At the same time, IPTO has prepared a Strategic Environmental Impact
Assessment (SEIA) in relation to the Ten-Year Development Plan (SDP) of the
Hellenic Electricity Transmission System (HETS) for the period 2017-2026, in
order to ensure the highest level of environmental protection and the
effective management of environmental impacts where these are located.
This SEIA deals with the identification, description, and evaluation of the
possible significant effects that the implementation of the proposals of the
development program can impose to the natural environment, proposing
measures to tackle them.
Furthermore, the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) is applied so
that on the basis of a balanced and sustainable development, the
environmental aspect is integrated before plans and programmes are
adopted by establishing the necessary measures, terms and procedures.
Therefore, an evaluation and assessment of the potential impact on the
environment is carried out, thus promoting sustainable development and a
high level of environmental protection.
At the same time, special care is given by IPTO for the protection of biodiversity as well as the reduction of its carbon
footprint. With the aim of reducing emissions in particular, a series of energy saving interventions have already been
carried out in the administration buildings, while others are planned soon.
Moreover, to promote sustainable mobility, IPTO replaced its corporate fleet vehicles with new ones that consume less
fuel and have low emissions, as well as vehicles with almost zero CO2 emissions, while a series of charging stations have
been installed in the company's premises.
Finally, the projects being designed, are located, constructed, and operate always in line with existing environmental
legislation, carrying out all necessary studies and complying with the relevant environmental terms approved on a case-
by-case basis.
Caring for human resources
IPTO's primary care regarding its human resources is to ensure of a safe working environment, with respect for diversity
and human rights.

Concurrently, training and development opportunities are provided, through training programs organized on an annual
basis for IPTO employees, in various educational subjects.
Contribution to the sustainable development of local communities
IPTO’s main concern is to take all necessary measures so that both the maintenance work and the activities related to
the Electricity Transmission System’s development are performed with the utmost respect for the natural environment
and the local communities in the areas where it operates.
Meanwhile, several particularly important benefits are achieved through the interconnection of the non-interconnected
islands with the Greek Electricity Transmission System, such as:
• Ensuring the islands’ energy supply, through the cessation of their energy isolation, definitively solving their
energy problem.
• Relieving the consumer from the excessive price induced by oil-based electricity production on the islands,
which has a total cost ranging between € 500 million and € 800 million per year, depending on international oil
prices, that burdens households and businesses.
• The environmental upgrade of the islands, as the oil stations (which operate on the border or within the
residential areas, even in the tourist areas), cease to operate, thus reducing their environmental footprint.
• The energy autonomy of the islands themselves, in an economical way and at simultaneous mild utilization of
renewable energy resources.
• Electricity of increased quality is provided, which significantly boosts the islands’ economy and the quality of
life for residents and visitors.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Shareholders of ADMIE Holding Company S.A.
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of ADMIE Holding Company S.A. (the Company),
which comprise the statement of financial position as of December 31, 2021, the statement of
comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended and a
summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly in all material respects the financial
position of ADMIE (IPTO) Holding S.A as at December 31, 2021 and its financial performance and cash
flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as endorsed
by the European Union.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs), as incorporated in
Greek Law. 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 remained independent
of the Company throughout the period of our appointment in accordance with the International Ethics
Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code), as
incorporated in Greek Law, together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to the audit of the
financial statements in Greece, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with
these requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
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 and the related risks of material
misstatement, 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.
For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the “Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the
Financial Statements” section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit
included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material
misstatement of the financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures
performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying
financial statements.

Key audit matter
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Accounting and valuation of the investment in a jointly controlled company
As at December 31, 2021, the carrying amount
of the investment in ADMIE S.A., which is
accounted for under the equity method,
amounts to € 742,692k in the statement of
financial position and comprises the majority of
the Company’s assets.
The management assesses the investment in
ADMIE S.A., in which the Company holds a 51%
interest, as a "jointly controlled entity" under the
provisions of IFRS 11, and measures it using the
equity method, in accordance with IAS 28. The
equity method provides that the investment is
initially measured at cost and the carrying
amount is increased or decreased to record the
investor's share of the profit or loss of the
investee (ADMIE S.A.) after the date of
acquisition. The investment is reduced by
dividend payments from the issuer to the
investor and any impairment losses, which are
determined if there are any relevant indications
of impairment.
This area was assessed as a significant matter
for our audit due to the size of the investment on
the financial statements as a whole and the
amount of income derived from the Company's
participation in the results of the jointly
controlled entity.
Information on the Company's accounting
policies and significant judgements about the
investment in the jointly controlled entity is
provided in notes 2.4, 2.6 and 4 to the financial
statements.
The audit procedures we performed, among others,
are the following:
- We reviewed and evaluated the information and
data used by the management in assessing the
"joint control" and measuring the investment in the
financial statements using the equity method,
applying the guidance provided by IFRS 11 and
IAS 28.
- Based on the audited consolidated financial
statements of ADMIE S.A. for the year ended
December 31, 2021, we recalculated the
Company's share on the profits of the jointly
controlled entity of € 35,391k, which was
recognized in the income statement and of €
5,140k recognized in other comprehensive
income for the year ended December 31, 2021.
- We assessed the management's estimation
regarding the identification of any impairment
indicators.
- We assessed the adequacy and appropriateness
of the disclosures in notes 2.4, 2.6 and 4 to the
financial statements.
Other matter
The financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020 were audited by another
auditing firm. For that fiscal year, an unqualified auditor’s report was issued on April 8, 2021.
Other information
Management is responsible for the other information in the Annual Report. The other information, includes the
Board of Directors’ Report, for which reference is also made in section “Report on Other Legal and Regulatory
Requirements”, the Statements of the Members of the Board of Directors and any other information either
required by law or voluntarily incorporated by the Company in its Annual Report prepared in accordance with
Law 3556/2007, 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 and we do not express any form
of assurance conclusion thereon.
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. If,
based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance
with International Financial Reporting Standards as endorsed 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 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 Company or to cease operations,
or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Audit Committee (Law 44 ν.4449/2017) is responsible for overseeing 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, as incorporated in Greek Law, 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, as incorporated in Greek Law, 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 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 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 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.
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

RISK OF MACROECONOMIC AND BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT IN GREECE
The Greek economy was severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, where a number of countermeasures were taken
to limit its spread in 2020. The impact of the crisis is great due to the importance of the hospitality sector in Greece and
the high number of small businesses, which are particularly vulnerable. The start of the first period of 2021 and the
expansion of the vaccination program led to the gradual lifting of the restrictive measures but the deterioration of the
epidemiological data, mainly due to the coronavirus mutations, limited the growth rates of the economy.
Real GDP grew strongly in the second and third quarters of 2021. As a result, in the first nine months of 2021 real GDP1
increased by 9.5% on an annual basis. During the 3rd quarter of 2021 it showed an increase of 2.7%, compared to the
2nd quarter of 2021, while compared to the 3rd quarter of 2020 it showed an increase of 13.4%.
This is mainly due to the recovery in private consumption that came from the increase in disposable income and the
increase in exports and services. Also, the increase in public consumption and investment spending of companies
supported domestic demand, which was negatively affected by the increased import of goods and services. In terms of
supply, there has been a recovery in services (mainly due to tourism), but also in industry and construction
According to the execution data of the state budget, for the period January - December 2021, there is a deficit in the
state budget balance of 14.872 million euros against a target for a deficit of 17.487 million euros. Budget 2022 and a
deficit of 22,806 million euros in the corresponding period of 2020. The primary result amounted to a deficit of 10,327
ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD 01/01/2021 – 31/12/2021
(In thousand euro unless otherwise stated)
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR-ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2018
73
million euros, against a target for a primary deficit of 12,946 million euros and a primary deficit of 18,195 million euros
for the same period in 2020. The amount of net revenues of the state budget amounted to 54.878 million euros,
showing an increase of 1.458 million euros or 2.7% compared to the estimate for the corresponding period included in
the presentation report of the 2022 Budget.
However, despite the continuing upward trend in exports, the goods deficit widened, as imports increased more than
exports in absolute terms, because of the continued growth of industrial production and the recovery of investment
and consumption.
It is worth noting that business expectations in all sectors improved and remained high during the year. The consumer
confidence index deteriorated in the second half of the year, possibly due to uncertainty about the evolution of the
pandemic, but also due to inflationary pressures.
Employment continued to decline in the first months of 2021, however, the impact of the pandemic on the labor
market was limited, as the measures taken to support income and employment proved to be effective. The recovery of
economic activity and the beginning of the tourist season led to an increase in the number of employees and a further
decline in the unemployment rate as early as the second quarter of the year.
Inflation began to record a positive annual rate from June 2021, as economic activity recovered and at the same time
inflationary pressures appeared, mainly due to disruptions in supply chains and the sharp rise in international energy
prices.

In 2022 the growth rate1 is projected to reach 5.0% and in 2023 to 3.9%, provided that the economy will continue to be
strengthened significantly by international tourism, the eurozone recovery and the acceleration of investment.
It is estimated that exports of goods will increase at a higher rate in 2022, as the international environment will improve,
and international supply chains will be restored. Exports of services, especially tourism, are expected to move upwards,
following the significant decline recorded because of measures taken globally to reduce the health crisis. At the same
time, however, imports are expected to move upwards, in relation to the recovery of domestic demand, especially
investment.
Although Budget 4 of 2022 is being prepared for the second consecutive year under the regime of uncertainty caused by
the global health crisis and although current international price developments are an additional factor of uncertainty, the
first positive macroeconomic results have already been recorded, remission of the direct economic effects of the
pandemic crisis.
The Company, by effectively addressing the challenges posed by Covid-19, constantly monitors and evaluates the
situation and the possible effects of the developments, in order to maintain and strengthen its position, on the one hand,
and to limit any possible negative effects.

been applied in Greece in the past in this regard, and therefore, in accordance with the provisions of the IASB Due Process.
Handbook (par.8.6)”, the economic entities that prepare their financial statements in accordance with IFRS are required
to modify their Accounting Policy accordingly in this regard. Based on the above, the application of the above decision is
treated in accordance with paragraphs 19-22 of IAS 8 as a change in accounting policy.
The above amendment has no significant effect on the Company's Financial Statements (note 2.7).
IFRS 16 (Amendment) "COVID-19 Related Rental Concessions"
The amendment gives tenants (but not landlords) the option of making an optional exemption from assessing whether
the COVID-19-related lease is a lease amendment. Tenants can choose to account for rental concessions in the same way
they would for non-lease changes. The above amendment does not have a significant impact on the Company's Financial
Statements.
IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 (Amendments) "Reference rate adjustment - Phase 2"
The amendments complement those issued in 2019 and focus on the impact on the financial statements when a company
replaces the old reference rate with an alternative reference rate as a result of the reform. Specifically, the amendments
relate to how a company will account for changes in the financial cash flows of its financial instruments, how it will
account for changes in its hedging relationships and the information it needs to disclose. The above amendment does
not have a significant impact on the Financial Statements of the Company as the Company and the affiliated company
IPTO SA. has no Euribor contracts or hedging relationships.
Standards that have been issued but do not apply in the current accounting year and the Company has not adopted
earlier
IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures - Amendment: The
sale or contribution of assets between an investor and the associate of the company or its joint venture
The amendments address a recognized inconsistency between the requirements of IFRS 10 and those of IAS 28 to address
the sale or contribution of assets between the investor and the associate's company or joint venture. The main
consequence of the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognized when the transaction involves a business (whether
or not it is owned by a subsidiary). A partial gain or loss is recognized when the transaction involves assets that do not
constitute a business, even if those assets are held in a subsidiary. In December 2015, the IASB indefinitely postponed
the date of application of this amendment, pending the outcome of its work on the equity method. The amendments
have not yet been adopted by the European Union.
The amendment has no impact on the Company's Financial Statements.
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Long Term (Amendments)
The amendments apply for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022, with earlier application permitted.
However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the IASB extended the implementation date by one year, ie from 1 January
2023, giving companies more time to identify any changes in the classification of liabilities. The amendments are intended
to be consistent with the application of the requirements of the standard, helping companies determine whether
borrowing and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date are classified as current or long-term liabilities in the
Statement of Financial Position. The amendments affect the presentation of liabilities in the Statement of Financial
Position, while they do not change the existing requirements regarding the measurement or the time of recognition of
an asset, liability, income or expense or the disclosures on these items. The amendments also clarify the classification
requirements for borrowing, which can be settled by a company by issuing equity securities.
In November 2021, the IASB issued a draft report which clarifies the classification of liabilities subject to compliance
conditions at a date later than the reporting period. In particular, the IASB proposed limited scope amendments to IAS 1,
which reverse the 2020 amendments that require entities to classify as subject to compliance liabilities only within the
next 12 months after the reporting period, if compliance conditions are not met at the end of the reporting period. The
proposals are for the entities to present separately the long-term liabilities that are subject to compliance conditions

within twelve months from the reporting period. In addition, additional disclosures will be required when entities do not
comply with the compliance requirements at the end of the reporting period. Proposals will be effective for annual
reference periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024 and must be applied retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8,
with earlier application permitted. The IASB also proposed postponing the entry into force of the 2020 amendments
regarding the classification of liabilities as short-term or long-term, until the implementation of the draft report proposals.
Amendments including proposals for the draft report have not yet been adopted by the European Union.
The Company's Management examines whether the amendment has a significant effect on the Company's Financial
Statements.

that affect the balances of the assets and liabilities accounts, the disclosure of any receivables and liabilities at the
reporting date, as well as the income and expenses presented during the examination. use. Management estimates and
judgments are reviewed annually. Actual results may differ from these estimates and judgments.

exists when under a contract, decisions on the direction of significant activities of a Company require the unanimous
consent of the parties exercising joint control.
The factors considered for the evaluation of the joint audit are similar to those evaluated during the evaluation process

Based on the above, the Company's management has concluded that the investment in IPTO SA is accounted for using
the equity method, considering the provisions of IFRS 11 - “Mutual agreements.
Indications of Impairment of participation in IPTO SA
The management of the Company assesses at each reporting date the existence or not of indications of impairment of
the participation in the company IPTO SA and if such indications are found, the participation is checked for impairment.
Also, the Management re-evaluates the value of the participation in the company IPTO SA, in case of impairment of the
value of its assets (Electricity Transmission System).
If there is evidence of impairment, it calculates the recoverable amount of the holding as the higher of fair value and
value in use. The main assumptions used by the Management in the context of estimating the recoverable amount of its
participation relate to future flows and performance, based on the business plans of the company that is audited for
impairment (IPTO SA), at their growth rate over time. in the future working capital as well as in the discount rate.
For the reporting date 31/12/2021, the Management does not consider that there are indications of impairment of the
participation, as the affiliated company IPTO SA. continues to show profitable results, its investment plan is developing
smoothly and there are no signs of impairment of the electricity transmission network.
Leases
Leases in which the Company is a lessee require the judgment of its Management whether a contract includes a lease,
upon its entry into force and recognizes on a case-by-case basis an asset with a right of use and a corresponding obligation
from the lease.
2.5. REFORM OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Until 31/12/2020, the distribution of temporary dividends was recorded as a reduction of the Equity at the time when
the approval of the distribution of the annual results was made within the framework of the regular general meeting of
the Company's shareholders.
The Company re-evaluated the above handling and considered that the accounting recognition of the temporary
dividends must take place after the completion of the procedure provided by law 4548/2018 and their payment to the
shareholders.
For this reason, the company proceeded to restructure the funds of the previous year with the result that the balance of
the accounts "Other Receivables" and "Results in new" of December 31, 2020 and 2019 to be reduced by the amount of
Euro 20,625 thousand. and Euro 13,920 thousand. respectively, while there was no effect on the results, cash flows and
earnings per share of the company of the previous year.
2.6. BASIC ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Conversion of foreign currencies
The operating and presentation currency is the Euro. Transactions in other currencies are translated into Euros using the
exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign currency receivables and liabilities at the date of

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR-ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2018
80
preparation of the financial statements are adjusted to reflect the current exchange rates at the date of preparation of
the financial statements. Gains or losses arising from these adjustments are included in other expenses in the income
statement.
Tangible assets
Property, plant, and equipment include furniture and other equipment and are initially recognized at cost, which includes
all costs directly attributable to their acquisition or construction until they are ready for use as intended by Management.
After initial recognition, property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated amortization and
impairment. Their depreciation is calculated based on the fixed depreciation method and within five years of use.
In particular, the affiliated company IPTO SA owns tangible assets, which, among other things, include real estate and
machinery. Such property, plant and equipment are subsequently measured at fair value less accumulated depreciation
and amortization. Fair value estimates are performed periodically by independent appraisers (every three to five years)
using the level three assumptions of IFRS 13 and the residual replacement cost method, in order to ensure that the fair
value does not differ materially. from the unamortized balance.
If the carrying amount of an asset increases because of an adjustment, the increase is credited to a reserve in other
comprehensive income, net of deferred income taxes. However, an increase due to revaluation is recognized in profit or
loss to the extent that it reverses a previous devaluation of the same asset that was previously recognized in profit or
loss.
If the carrying amount of an asset decreases because of an adjustment, the decrease shall be recognized in profit or loss.
However, the reduction will be charged directly to the reserve in other comprehensive income, net of deferred income
taxes, to the extent that there is a credit balance in the revaluation surplus relating to this asset.
At the date of revaluation, the accumulated depreciation is offset against its pre-depreciation book value and the net
amounts are adjusted according to the adjusted amounts. Upon the revaluation of a revalued tangible fixed asset, the
corresponding portion of the recognized goodwill is transferred from the reserve to the income statement.
Repairs and maintenance are recorded at the expense of the year in which they are performed. Subsequent costs are
capitalized if the criteria for their recognition as assets are met and increase in value. For all assets that are withdrawn,
the acquisition value and their related depreciation are written off at the time of sale or withdrawal. Any gain or loss
arising from the write-off of an asset is included in the income statement.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets include software programs. Software programs are valued at acquisition cost less accumulated
depreciation and impairment. In case of withdrawal or sale, the acquisition value and depreciation are written off. Any
gain or loss arising from the write-off is included in the income statement. The depreciation of the software is calculated
based on the fixed depreciation method and within a period of five years.
Impairment of non-financial assets
The Company at each date of preparation of financial statements, assesses the existence or not of impairment of its
assets. These indications are mainly related to the loss of value of the asset in a larger amount than expected changes in
the market, technology, legal status, physical condition of the asset and change in use. In case there are indications, the
Company calculates the recoverable amount of the asset. The recoverable amount of an asset is defined as the higher of
the fair value of the asset or its cash-generating unit (after deducting disposal costs) and its value in use.
Recoverable amount is determined at the individual asset level, unless that asset generates cash inflows that are
independent of those of other assets or group of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable
amount, it is deemed to have been impaired and adjusted for its recoverable amount. The value in use is calculated as
the present value of the estimated future cash flows using a pre-tax discount rate, which reflects current estimates of the
time value of money and the risks associated with the asset. The fair value of the sale (after deduction of disposal costs)
is determined based on the price of the asset in an active market and if it does not exist, by applying a valuation model.

(In thousand euro unless otherwise stated)
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR-ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2018
81
Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Each reporting date examines whether any impairment losses
previously recognized are present or have been reduced. If such indications exist, the recoverable amount of the asset is
redefined. Impairment losses recognized in the past are reversed only if there are changes in the estimates used to
determine the recoverable amount since the recognition of the last impairment loss.
The increased balance of the asset resulting from the reversal of the impairment loss may not exceed the balance that
would have been determined (less depreciation) if the impairment loss had not been recognized previously. The reversal
of the impairment is recognized in profit or loss unless the asset is valued at fair value, in which case the reversal is treated
as an increase in the already recognized goodwill and after the reversal, the depreciation of the asset is adjusted to the
revised balance (less the residual value) to be divided equally in the future on the basis of the remaining useful life of the
asset.
Financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets are governed by the provisions of IFRS 9, according to which, at initial recognition, a financial asset is
classified as:
• at amortized cost
• at fair value through profit or loss (for other comprehensive income). at fair value)
• at fair value through statement of comprehensive income (for debt investments)
• at fair value through profit or loss based on:
a) the Group's business model for managing financial assets, and
b) the typical contractual cash flows of the financial asset.
Impairment of Financial Assets
For the impairment of financial assets, IFRS 9 introduces the "expected loss against credit risk" model and replaces the
"realized loss" model of IAS 39. The method for determining the impairment loss of IFRS 9 applies Assets that are classified
as amortized cost, contract assets and debt investments at fair value through other comprehensive income, but not
investments in equity.
Financial assets valued at amortized cost
Financial assets at amortized cost consist of trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents. Losses are measured
on one of the following: arise from events that occur throughout the life of the financial instrument),
• 12 months expected credit losses (these expected losses may arise as a result of default events within 12 months
from the reporting date),
• expected life credit losses (these expected losses may arise from events that occur duration of the financial
instrument),
• credit life losses (when there are objective circumstances that the asset is credit impaired)
Measurement of expected credit losses
Expected credit losses are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured at the present
value (using the effective interest method) of the cash deficit, ie the present value of the difference between the cash
flows that the Company would receive and the cash flows it expects to receive.

Presentation of impairment
Impairment losses on financial assets that are measured at amortized cost are deducted from the carrying amount of
the assets.
Deletion of financial assets
Financial assets (or part of a financial asset or part of a group of financial assets) are derecognised when:
1. expire the contractual rights to the cash flows of the financial asset
2. transfer the financial asset and the transfer meets the terms of the derecognition template.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include time deposits and other highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of less than
three months.

Interest-bearing loans and credits
Loans and credits are initially recognized at cost, which reflects the fair value of the consideration less costs incurred in
concluding the relevant loan agreements. They are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective
interest method. For the calculation of amortized costs, all types of loan and credit expenses are taken into account.
Provisions for risks and expenses, contingent liabilities and contingent receivables
Provisions are recognized when the Company has present legal, contractual or presumptive liabilities as a result of past
events, it is possible to settle them through outflows of funds and the estimate of the exact amount of the liability can
be made reliably.
Provisions are reviewed at the date of preparation of the financial statements and are adjusted to reflect the present
value of the expenditure that is expected to be required to settle the liability. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in
the financial statements but are disclosed, unless the likelihood of an outflow of resources embodying financial benefits
is minimal. Contingent assets are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed if an outflow of financial
benefits is probable.
Provision of staff compensation
(a) Post-employment benefits
Post-employment benefits include defined contribution plans. The payments are determined by the respective Greek
legislation and the regulations of the funds.
Defined contribution plan is a retirement plan under which the Company makes defined payments to a separate legal
entity. The Company has no legal obligation to pay additional contributions if the fund does not have sufficient assets to
pay all employees the benefits related to their service in the present and previous periods.
For defined contribution plans, the Company pays contributions to public insurance funds on a mandatory basis. The
Company has no other obligation once it has paid its contributions. Contributions are recognized as staff costs

whenever a debt arises. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset if there is a possibility of a refund or set-off
with future debts.
In addition, the Company forms in accordance with Law 2112/20 and 4093/12 a provision for retirement compensation
of all its staff, which concerns 40% of the total compensation that the staff would receive in case of dismissal. The
amount of this compensation depends on the years of service and the amount of remuneration. Based on IAS 19 the
Company should have formed a provision based on an actuarial study. However, due to the fact that any difference
between the forecast formed and the one that would result from the actuarial study would not be significant, as the
staff is small in number and with little previous service, no actuarial study was performed.
The Committee for the Interpretation of International Financial Reporting Standards (IASB), answering a question
regarding the framework of application of the provisions of article 8 of L.3198 / 1955 regarding the way of recognizing
the provision of compensation due to retirement, issued a final decision according to which The company distributes
the retirement benefits of the staff per year of service to the employees, during the period of the last 16 years before
the employees leave the service, according to the establishment conditions for receiving a full pension. This period is
the reasonable basis for the formation of the relevant provision (as defined in the next paragraph) as beyond this
period their retirement benefits are not substantially increased.
(b) Termination benefits
Termination benefits are paid when employees leave before the retirement date. The Company registers these benefits
when it is committed. Termination benefits due 12 months after the reporting date are discounted to their present
value.
Income tax (current and deferred)
Current income tax
The expense for current income tax includes the income tax that arises on the basis of the Company's profits, as
reformulated in the tax returns, as well as provisions for additional taxes and surcharges for unaudited fiscal years and
is calculated according to the statutory or statutory date of preparation of the Financial Position.
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is calculated using the liability method in all temporary differences at the date of preparation of

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences unless the liability for deferred income tax
arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not
a corporation. transaction does not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and carried forward tax receivables and
tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available which will be used against deductible
temporary differences and transferable unused and transferable unused. A deferred tax asset is not recognized if it
arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a merger and at the time of the
transaction does not affect either the accounting profit or the taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax liabilities are revalued at each date of preparation of the Financial Statement and are reduced to the
extent that it is unlikely that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which part or all of the deferred income tax
receivables can be used. Deferred tax liabilities and liabilities are calculated based on the tax rates that are expected to
be effective in the year in which the claim is recovered or the liability settled and are based on the tax rates (and tax
laws) in force or enacted in date of preparation of the Financial Position. Income tax related to items that are

recognized directly in other comprehensive income is recognized directly in other comprehensive income and not in the
income statement.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the financial benefits will flow to the Company and the
relevant amounts can be measured reliably.
The income from the Company's participation in the Independent Electricity Transmission Operator (IPTO SA) is
accounted for in the fiscal year after being approved by the competent body.
Interest income
Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.
Revenue from the provision of services
Revenue from the provision of services is recognized in the income statement in the period in which they were
provided.
Leases
The Company as a lessee
Pursuant to IFRS 16, the classification of leases into operating leases and financial leases is abolished for the lessee and
all leases are recognized in accounting as "Financial Position" items, through the recognition of a "right to use" assets
and a "lease obligation", except for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and
leases whose underlying asset is of low value (ie less than € 5,000). For these leases, the Company recognizes the leases
as operating expenses using the straight-line method against the term of the lease. The Company recognizes leases
relating to these leases as operating expenses in the income statement.
Recognition and initial measurement of the right to use the asset
At the beginning of a lease term the Company recognizes a right to use the asset and a lease liability by measuring the
right to use the asset at cost.
The cost of the right to use the asset includes the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any lease
payments made before or at the start date of the lease term, less the lease incentives received, the initial direct costs
borne by the lessee , and an estimate of the costs that will be borne by the Company during the dismantling and
removal of the leased asset, the restoration of the premises where the leased asset is located or the restoration of the
asset as required by the terms and conditions of the lease. The Company assumes the obligation for these expenses
either at the date of the beginning of the lease period or because of the use of the leased assets during a specific
period. The right to use an asset is included in the line Right to use the Statement of Financial Position and the lease
obligation is included in the lines Long-term lease liabilities and Short-term part of lease liabilities.
Initial measurement of the lease liability
At the commencement date of the lease term, the Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the
outstanding rent payments on that date. When the implicit borrowing rate of the lease can be properly determined,
then rent payments will be discounted using this interest rate. Otherwise, the incremental borrowing rate of the
Company is used.

FOR THE PERIOD 01/01/2021 – 31/12/2021
(In thousand euro unless otherwise stated)
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR-ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2018
85
At the effective date of the lease term, lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability include the
following payments for the right to use the asset during the lease term, if they have not been paid at the effective date
of the lease term:
(a) fixed payments less any lease receivables.
(b) any variable lease payments subject to future changes in indices or interest rates, which are initially measured using
the index price or interest rate at the effective date of the lease.
(c) the amounts expected to be paid by the Company as residual value guarantees; The lease term reflects the exercise
of the Company's right to terminate the lease.
(d) the exercise price of the purchase right if it is substantially certain that the Company will exercise the right, and
e) the payment of penalties for termination of the lease, if the lease period reflects the exercise of the Company's right
to terminate the lease.
Subsequent measurement
Subsequent measurement of the right to use the asset
After the start date of the lease period, the Company measures the right to use the asset with the cost model:
(a) less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, and
(b) adjusted for any subsequent measurement of the lease liability.
The Company applies the requirements of IAS 16 regarding the amortization of the right to use an asset, which it
examines for any impairment.
Subsequent measurement of the lease obligation
After the commencement date of the lease term, the Company measures the lease liability as follows:
(a) increasing the carrying amount to reflect the financial cost of the lease+
(b) reducing the carrying amount to reflect the leases paid; and
(c) re-measuring the carrying amount to reflect any revaluation or modification of the lease.
The financial cost of a lease liability is apportioned over the lease term in such a way as to result in a fixed periodic
interest rate on the outstanding balance of the liability.
Participation in affiliated companies
The participation in IPTO was initially recognized at its fair value at the date of acquisition of shares, ie on
31/03/2017, for an amount of 491,770,000 Euros based on a valuation by the auditing company "Deloitte" which
was accepted by the Management and has published according to article 17 par. 4 and 8, in combination with
article 13 of law 4548/2018, which is the subject of a contribution in kind from PPC to the Company, with equal
recognition of share capital. Subsequently, the equity is accounted for using the equity method as a Joint Venture
within the meaning of IFRS 11 - “Mutual Agreements”, with the Company recognizing in its results and other
comprehensive income its ratio (51%) to net profits and other total income of the participation, respectively. As the
ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD 01/01/2021 – 31/12/2021
(In thousand euro unless otherwise stated)
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR-ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2018
86
tangible fixed assets of IPTO SA presented at adjusted (fair values), the difference between the fair value and the
carrying amount of the equity at initial recognition is not allocated to equity assets and is therefore not amortized
but is tested for impairment in the investment.
In summary, the initial recognition of participation was calculated as follows:
Fair value of participation in IPTO
491.770
Book value of IPTO’s equity as of 31/03/2017
912.701
Company percentage (51%)
465.478
Excess value not allocated to assets
26.292
Impairment of investment accounted for using the equity method
The Company at each date of preparation of financial statements, assesses the existence or not of impairment of its
investment in IPTO SA. In case there are indications, the Company calculates the recoverable amount of the
participation as the largest amount between the fair value and the value in use. When the book value of the
investment exceeds its recoverable amount, then it is considered that its value has been impaired and is adjusted to
the amount of its recoverable amount. The value due to use is calculated as the present value of the estimated future
cash flows that are expected to be realized by IPTO SA, adjusted according to its shareholding. The main assumptions
used by the Management in the context of estimating the recoverable amount of its investment in IPTO SA, relate to
future flows and performance, based on the business plans of the company audited for impairment (IPTO SA), in
their growth rate. at perpetual, future working capital as well as at the discount rate.
Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Each reporting date examines whether any impairment losses
previously recognized are present or have been reduced. If such indications exist, the recoverable amount of the
investment is redefined. Impairment losses previously recognized are reversed only if there are changes in the
estimates used to determine the recoverable amount since the recognition of the last impairment loss.
The increased balance of the investment resulting from the reversal of the impairment loss, may not exceed the
balance that would have been determined (less depreciation) if the impairment loss had not been recognized
previously. The reversal of the impairment is recognized in profit or loss.
2.7 CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES AND CORRECTION OF ERRORS
The decision of the Interpretations Committee, which was published in May 2021 entitled "Distribution of benefits in
periods of service in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 19", includes explanatory material
regarding the distribution of benefits in periods of service on a specific program defined benefits analogous to that
defined in article 8 of L.3198 / 1955 regarding the provision of compensation due to retirement (the "Program of
Defined Benefits of Labor Law").
According to the specific decision, the way in which IAS 19 was applied in Greece is changing. Until recently, the
companies calculated the benefits defined by article 8 of L.3198 / 1955, L.2112 / 1920, and its amendment by L.4093
/ 2012 in the period from the recruitment (until the completion of 16 years of work following the scale of Law
4093/2012) or (until the date of retirement of employees).
Now, the benefits are distributed in the last 16 years until the date of retirement of the employees following the scale
of Law 4093/2012.
The application of the above final Decision is treated as a change in accounting policy, applying the change
retroactively from the beginning of the first comparative period, in accordance with paragraphs 19 - 22 of IAS 8.

The Management, considering the instructions “IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements” of the IASB,
estimates that the effect of the implementation of the above Decision does not have a significant effect on any item of
the financial position such as e.g. (Employee benefits due to retirement, New earnings or receivables and liabilities) and
therefore applied from the beginning of the current accounting period and not retrospectively.
The effect from the implementation of the Decision of the interpretation committee by both the Company and IPTO SA,
is presented in the following table:

3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
3.1 FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS
The Company is exposed to financial risks, such as market risks (changes in exchange rates, interest rates, market prices),
credit risk and liquidity risk. Risk management focuses on the uncertainty of financial and non-financial markets and aims
to minimize adverse effects on the Company's financial position. The Company identifies, evaluates and, if necessary,
hedges the risks related to its operating activities, while on a periodic basis controls and reviews the relevant policies and
procedures in relation to financial risk management. Also, there are no for-profit transactions.
Financial risks relate to the following financial assets and liabilities of the Statement of Financial Position: cash, trade and
other receivables, lease receivables and liabilities as well as trade and other current and long-term liabilities.
a) Market risk
Price risk
The Company is not exposed to changes in the prices of equity securities because it has no investments that it has
recognized in the Statement of Financial Position, either as financial assets valued at fair value through the statement of
other comprehensive income or as investments valued at fair value. results.
Cash flow risk due to interest rate changes
The Company has in its assets interest bearing assets that include sight deposits. Possible changes in interest rates
would not have a significant impact on the results and equity of the Company.
Currency risk
The foreign exchange risk of the Company is considered relatively limited as all income, expenses, financial assets and
financial liabilities are expressed in Euros which is the operating currency and the presentation currency of the
Company.

b) Credit risk
The Company is exposed to credit risk, which however is mainly limited to cash and cash equivalents from deposits with
banks and financial institutions.
c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is associated with the need for adequate financing for the operation and development of the Company.
The Company manages liquidity risk through the monitoring and planning of its cash flows, and acts appropriately by
ensuring as sufficient credit limits and cash as possible.

The analysis of trade liabilities does not include the amounts of other taxes payable and insurance contributions.
The above amounts of lease liabilities are reflected in the conventional, non-discounted cash flows and therefore do
not correspond to the corresponding amounts reflected in the financial statements regarding the item "Lease
liabilities".
3.2 CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The purpose of the Company in terms of capital management is to ensure its ability to continue its activities smoothly,
to ensure returns for shareholders and benefits for other parties related to the Company and to maintain an optimal
capital structure to achieves a reduction in capital costs.
The Company had no borrowings as of 31 December 2021, except for the obligation to finance the lease of its offices
from the affiliated company IPTO, as shown by the application of IFRS 16. Therefore, the Company does not present a
leverage ratio and there is no need to analyze it. its net debt.
3.3 OTHER FINANCIAL RISKS
Regulatory risk:
The Company is exposed to regulatory risk, due to the activity of the affiliated company IPTO SA, which is subject to a
strict and complex legal and regulatory framework, concerning the management of ESMIE, and to increased supervisory
obligations. Possible amendments to the ESMIE Management Code and the relevant legislative and regulatory
framework may create additional management responsibilities on the part of the affiliated company IPTO SA. The
assumption of any additional responsibilities or possible changes in the relevant institutional framework are likely to
adversely affect the profitability of IPTO SA, and consequently the Company.
Also, possible changes in the methodology and / or the parameters of calculation of the charges for the use of the
System, are likely to significantly affect the revenue, the profitability of IPTO SA, and consequently the Company.

(In thousand euro unless otherwise stated)
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR-ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2018

Regulatory risk:
Possible amendments and / or additions to the regulatory framework governing the Electricity market, in accordance
with the provisions of European Legislation, may have a significant impact on the operation and financial results of the
affiliated company IPTO SA, and consequently the company's.
During the current period, a fine was imposed on the affiliated company IPTO SA. according to the 345/2021 decision of
RAE (note 4)
Risk from regulated activity returns:
The activity of the affiliated company IPTO SA is largely determined by the implementation of the Ten-Year System
Development Program (DSP), as it affects both the investments it is required to make and the future revenues from the
use of the Transmission System. Therefore, possible amendments to the VAT that either increase the liabilities of IPTO
SA, or require faster execution of projects, may adversely affect the profitability of IPTO SA, and consequently the
Company.
The regulated returns of the investments of the System can negatively affect the profitability of IPTO SA, and
consequently of the Company, if they do not cover the reasonable return of the relevant invested funds.
The affiliated company IPTO SA, in any case, has the necessary valves and organization to reduce regulatory and
regulatory risks, while in cooperation with the Energy Regulatory Authority ensures that there are the necessary
approvals for each transaction.

to the project to be completed of the Transmission Line (GM) 400 kV KYT Patras-KYT Megalopolis. IPTO SA filed a review
request in time requesting the disappearance or the reform of RAE decision 345/2021, as the assessment of the legal
service is that there are valid legal reasons, which may overturn the RAE decision. Therefore, the Management of IPTO
