The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS EU" hereinafter).
Some of the companies of the Group that are registered in Ukraine maintain their accounting records under Ukrainian Accounting Standards ("UAS" hereinafter).

Items | Measurement bases |
Biological assets | Fair value less costs to sell |
Details of the Group accounting policies are included in Note 5. |
2.2. Going concern basis
On February 24, 2022, russian troops launched a military invasion of Ukraine, which led to a full-scale war on the territory of the Ukrainian state. Today the war continues and its duration is unknown. Focusing on the continuity and sustainability of its business and maintaining value for all stakeholders, the Group has focused on such key areas as the safety of its employees and the food security of the country, giving priority to the uninterrupted supply of the population of Ukraine with egg products.
Having examined the existing and potential implications of the war for the Ukraine located businesses, the management of the Group have identified several points of specific concern that require careful analysis and assessment. They include, but are not limited to, the following:
- risks related to the personnel safety;
- risk of physical destruction of the production assets;
- risks of disruption of the supply and distribution chains;
- risk of liquidity and limited access to financing;
8
The Group's management continue to fulfill their duties without interruptions.
The Group fully complies with all sanctions rules and regulations regarding Russia and Belarus, including those introduced or published by various countries and organizations. In addition, the Group refrains from contacting individuals or entities on the sanctions list. In this situation, the Group does not expect any impact on the supply chain and payment flow.
The currently known impacts of the War on the Group are:
- the Group's major production facilities are located in Kyiv region, in Fastivskyi and Bilotserkivskyi districts, where no severe hostilities took place. The poultry houses in Vasilkiv and Stavyshche, as well as theegg-processing factory in Vasilkiv, remain physically undamaged and keep operating;
- the supporting facilities accommodating hatchery, poultry houses for parent flock and young layers have not been affected and are being used in accordance with the technological process;
- all Group inventory is in good condition and in safe storage;
- the Group has historically relied on the suppliers located in the central part of Ukraine, which implies efficient logistics and reasonably prompt deliveries to the production sites. Major contractors have not been affected by the hostilities and continue to fulfill their contractual obligations;
- the military action had no critical impact on the local distribution. The main distribution channel for the egg segment is the large national retail chains. Geographically the sales are concentrated in the central part of the country. The share of sales in the most affected regions does not exceed 10%;
- as of date of this report there are no signs of material deterioration of the payment discipline. The Group has sufficient recourses to meet its contractual obligations. Interest bearing liabilities towards the banks areserved timely.
The Group has taken the following actions in response to the current situation:
- optimized utilization of production facilities to meet domestic demand and export orders;
- the group has enough inventory for the production and sale of its products, as well as human resources in the foreseeable future;
- selling, general and administrative and other operating expenses, have been reduced to the minimum required to meet the primary needs of the Group's core business;
As of today, the Group has no liquidity problems.
After the start of a full-scale invasion, the Company was forced to reduce the herd in order to optimize the production and sale of its products. In Today, the Company's management to actively restore herd.
Management has prepared and reviewed, together with the directors, updated financial projections, including cash flow projections, taking into account the most likely and possible negative scenarios for the continued impact of the war on the business.
These forecasts were based on the following key assumptions:
- the further development of the war and the military invasion of Ukraine will allow the use of most of the Group's production capacity;
- the Group will be able to purchase a sufficient amount of agricultural products for poultry feed;
- road logistics routes that exist today will continue to be available;
- egg production for 2024 will be 1.648 million ( 1,573 million forecast in 2023);
- сapital investments for 2024 are planned in the amount of 2.2 million dollars (the fact for 2023 is 1.1 million dollars).
The developments of ongoing military offensive of the Russian Federation including their magnitude, intensity or the potential timing of the cessation of those actions are uncertain. The unpredictability of the further war development and its potentially significant magnitude represent a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Group to continue as going concern.
9
Despite the existing uncertainties arising from the future development of the military invasion, the management believes the above described analysis gives grounds to state that during at least 12 months after the date of the present report the Group will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, thus going concern assumptionis applied to the financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
2.3. Functional and presentation currency.
The functional currency of the Company is U.S. dollar (USD). The consolidated financial statements are presented in the Company's functional currency, that is, U.S. dollar (USD). The functional currency of operating subsidiaries in Ukraine is the Ukrainian hryvnia (UAH), in Latvia the euro, in the UAE the US dollar. All values are rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise noted.
The USD has been selected as the presentation currency for the Group as: (a) management of the Group manages business risks and exposures, and measures the performance of its businesses in the USD; (b) the USD is widely used as a presentation currency of companies engaged primarily in agricultural; and (c) the USD is the most convenient presentation currency for non- Ukrainian users of these IFRS consolidated financial statements.
The Group translates its results and financial position into the presentation currency as follows:
- assets and liabilities, as well as the issued capital, for each statement of financial position presented (i.e. including comparatives) shall be translated at the closing rate at the date of that statement of financial position;
- income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income or separate income statement presented (i.e. including comparatives) shall be translated at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions; and
- all resulting exchange differences shall be recognized in other comprehensive income.
During year ended 31 March 2024 and 2023, the exchange rate had`nt significant fluctuations. Consistent with IAS 21, if exchange rates fluctuate significantly, the use of the average rate for a period is inappropriate. Considering significant depreciation of Ukrainian currency against major foreign currencies and seasonality of sales, Management of the Group decided to translate income and expense items at average quarterly rates. On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries are translated at exchange rates prevailing on the reporting date. Income and expense items are translated at the average quarterly rates, unless the exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognized in "Other comprehensive income" and accumulated in the "Foreign currency translation reserve".
Relevant exchange rates are presented as follows:
