• Sale of services: the control over services is transferred to the customer in the moment when the service
is performed. Revenue from rendered trading, energy and engineering services are recognised in the
reporting period in which the services are performed. Revenue from services rendered is recognized
in the income statement based on the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting
period. The stage of completion is assessed by reviewing the work performed.
• Commission services: the Company has a contract with the parent company, where it acts as a commission
agent who pursuant to the contract conducts electricity trading on behalf of the client, for which it charges
a commission fee. The Company is under the contract entitled to a fixed monthly part of the commission
and a variable part of the commission, which is determined at the end of the accounting period. During the
provision of services, the Company does not bear the risk of losses that would arise from the concluded
commission transactions, as these are borne by the client. As the Company does not bear the risk of
losses that must be settled by the client under the contract, the Company deemed that it acts as an agent
in this contract. Revenue is recognized on a net basis, in the amount of the commission as defined under
the contract. Revenue is recognized gradually according to the stage of completion of the enforcement
obligation.
Employee benefits
Salaries, allowances, paid annual leave and defined retirement benefit plans and non-cash benefit costs are
recognized as a liability in profit or loss or in costs related to services during the period in which they are
incurred by employees.
Finance income and finance costs
Finance income and finance costs comprise:
• interest income;
• dividend income;
• interest expenses;
• expenses for impairment of investments, and
• foreign exchange differences arising on revaluation of financial assets and financial liabilities.
Dividend income is recognized in the income statement on the date the Company obtains the right to receive
the dividend.
When calculating finance income and costs, the effective interest rate is applied to the gross carrying amount
of the asset (when the asset is not impaired) or the amortised cost of the financial liability. For financial assets
that were impaired after their initial recognition, financial income is calculated from the amortised cost (gross
carrying amount of the impairment loss), whereas it is recalculated from the gross carrying amount when the
asset is no longer financially impaired.
Income tax expense
Income tax for the financial year comprises current tax and changes in deferred tax assets and deferred tax
liabilities. Current tax and changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized in the income statement,
except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity.
Current tax is the tax expected to be payable on the taxable profit for the financial year, using tax rates enacted
or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and includes any adjustments to tax liabilities in respect of
previous years.

Deferred tax is provided, taking into account temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax assets
also arise from unused tax losses and unused tax credits.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available
against which the asset can be utilized. Future taxable profit, on the basis of which deferred tax assets from
deductible temporary differences may be recognized, includes temporary differences that will arise from the
elimination of existing temporary tax differences if those differences relate to the same tax authority in respect
of the same taxable unit or to different taxable units that intend to repay tax liabilities or receive payment of
deferred tax assets in a set-off amount or that intend to repay tax liabilities or receive payment of deferred
tax assets at the same time. The same criteria are adopted in determining whether existing taxable temporary
differences support the recognition of a deferred tax asset due to unused tax losses and credits i.e. these
differences are taken into account if they relate to the same tax authority and the same taxpayer and are
expected to be eliminated in the period or periods in which the tax loss or credit can be used.
The amount of recognized deferred tax is measured based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement
of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted
by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to
the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which the related
tax benefit can be utilized. Any such reduction shall be reversed if it is probable that sufficient taxable profit
will be available.
Accounted taxes, deferred taxes and their changes are presented separately and are not offset. Accounted tax
receivables are offset by current tax liabilities, and deferred tax assets are offset by deferred tax liabilities if
the Company has legally enforceable rights to offset accounted tax receivables with short-term tax liabilities
and the following additional conditions are met:
• in case of accounted tax receivables and liabilities: the Company intends to either settle the net amount
or liquidate the asset and settle its liability at the same time, or
• in case of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities: in the case of income taxes levied by the same tax
authority on the same taxable person or on different taxable persons and intended for any future period
in which significant future payments are expected to be settled or recovered the amounts of deferred tax
liabilities or assets, either to cash in the accounted tax receivables and settle the net amount of the tax
liability, or to cash and settle at the same time.
Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past
event, which can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where the time value of money is significant, provisions are
stated at the present value of the expected costs of settling the liability.
When it is unlikely that an outflow of economic benefits will be required or if the amount cannot be estimated
reliably, a contingent liability is disclosed unless the probability of an outflow of economic benefits is low.
Possible liabilities, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or absence of one or more
future events, are also disclosed as contingent liabilities, unless the probability of an outflow of economic
benefits is low.
