2 VIENNA INSURANCE GROUP With a premium volume of approximately EUR 9 billion and around 25,000 employees, Vienna Insurance Group (VIG) is one of the leading insurance groups in Austria and Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). Innovation, strong customer relationships and an emphasis on customer service create a high quality product portfolio offering attractive solutions in both life and non-life insurance segments. VIG s clearly focused strategy for expansion in the CEE region has enabled it to make a transition from being an Austrian insurance company to an international group at an early stage. Today, VIG is represented by approximately 50 insurance companies in 25 countries. VIG stands for financial stability, and offers a high level of security to customers, shareholders, partners and employees. One of the key reasons is its conservative investment policy. This is reflected in its A+ rating with a stable outlook, which makes Vienna Insurance Group the best-rated company in the ATX leading index of the Vienna Stock Exchange. VIG has also been listed on the Prague Stock Exchange since In addition to economic considerations, the Group also places great importance on an involvement with social concerns and helping to create a future society worth living. In this way, Vienna Insurance Group remains true to its fundamental goal of value-oriented growth. Core market: Austria Vienna Insurance Group is the largest insurer in Austria, where it holds an excellent position with its group companies Wiener Staedtische Versicherung, Donau Versicherung and Sparkassen Versicherung. The strength shown in this core market since 1824 is one of the reasons for the successful realisation of VIG s internationalisation strategy. Major player in the CEE region Vienna Insurance Group started its expansion in 1990, making it one of the first Western European insurance companies to expand into Central and Eastern Europe. Today the Group is one of the most important players in this region and earns more than 50% of its total Group premiums in the CEE region. It has group companies and branches in the following countries in this region: Albania, Belarus, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Georgia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Montenegro, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Turkey and the Ukraine. VIG has also been represented in Bosnia-Herzegovina since Due to many years of experience and excellent knowledge of the markets in this region, and to its expertise in all insurance matters, VIG is optimally positioned to continue benefiting from future increases in the standard of living in the CEE region and from the accompanying increased need for insurance. Vienna Insurance Group is also represented in Germany, Liechtenstein and Italy. A common goal: to offer security to customers Every customer is unique. They differ in their need for insurance and retirement provisions, living circumstances and the way they like to receive advice. Vienna Insurance Group is aware of this. There is no standard insurance customer for VIG, it therefore pays close attention to special local characteristics, and maintains a presence with more than one brand name and broad distribution networks in many of its markets. There is one thing, however, that all Vienna Insurance Group companies have in common: the goal of providing security to customers. VIG companies have offered a complete range of insurance solutions in Austria for many decades in both non-life and life segments. Although the markets in Central and Eastern Europe are currently still at a different economic level, they are increasingly moving in

3 a similar direction. While demand in this region in the period following 1989 was initially strongest for motor vehicle insurance, and then household and homeowner insurance as well, today retirement provisions, savings and investment products in the form of life insurance policies are enjoying rising popularity. With the establishment of VIG RE, the Group has also had its own reinsurance company since The location of the company s registered office in the Czech Republic underscores the importance of the CEE region as a growth market for VIG. Strategic partnership with Erste Group Erste Group is a strong partner for Vienna Insurance Group. It also operates independently, has the same values and follows a similar growth strategy. The two companies benefit equally from a long-term cooperation agreement concluded in 2008 for Austria and the CEE region. Erste Group distributes VIG insurance products, whereas VIG companies offer Erste Group banking products in return. The cooperative arrangement gave Vienna Insurance Group access to a well-established bank distribution network. Capable employees bring success Employees play a particularly important role in the success of a service company. Here too, in addition to dedication, professional advice, and excellent service, Vienna Insurance Group places great importance on understanding local markets and close customer relationships. Further information on the Vienna Insurance Group is available at or in the VIG Group Annual Report.

The assets which secure coverage of gross insurance reserves in compliance with regulatory requirements of the Financial Supervision Commission are: deposits, shares, corporate debt instruments, government securities, etc. at the amount of BGN 99,792 thousand; deferred acquisition costs at the amount of BGN 11,229 thousand; receivables under insurance and reinsurance contracts at the amount of BGN 82,450 thousand and investment property at the amount of BGN 8,977 thousand.

18 2. PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS As a result of the negative economic environment in the country (GDP decrease and credit decline), the demand for insurance services has dropped significantly. In order to optimize their expenses, many clients reviewed their insurance programs. The number of vehicles insured under leasing contracts also decreased. The market concentrated mostly on compulsory insurances like Motor Third Party Liability. Other essential negative consequences from the crisis affecting the insurance sector development are: Deterioration of premium collection. Continuous market pressure for commission increases. Deterioration of criminogenic conditions. Last but not least, regarding Motor Third Party Liability Insurance _ clear insufficiency of the amount of the insurance premium. In comparison with 2010, the Company reported a decrease in the gross premium income by BGN 35,495 thousand, or 20%. The chart below shows the movement of the premium income for the past five years.

The chart below shows the allocation of the premium income by main groups of business for the year 2011: Gross premium income per line of business for % 11% Million BGN 19% 62% Motor Insurance 62% Property Insurance 19% Cargo, Aviation and Marine Insurance 8% Others 11% The Motor business encompasses Casco, Motor Third Party Liability Insurance. The Motor Insurances constitute 62% of the premium income generated in Compared with 2010, the Casco Insurance fell by 25%. The main reason is the decrease of the sums insured owing to lack of sales of new automobiles. Motor Third Party Liability Insurance also reported a decrease by 31% compared to 2010 as a result of portfolio changes concerning non-insurance of certain motor vehicle types. The Company is constantly increasing the average premiums under this insurance and offers diversified tariff for different geographic areas of the country, drivers age groups and other adequate criteria.

19 The premium income of the Cargo, Marine and Aviation Insurance group for the year 2011 is BGN 12,413 thousand, marking a decrease by BGN 491 thousand compared with Traditionally in these lines of business, the Company is well known and it is a leader on the Bulgarian insurance market. The results within these lines of business are mostly affected by the fact that some clients insured their business abroad. The group of the Property Insurance includes the insurances of household property, industrial sites, hotels, restaurants, shops. In 2011 the Company suffered a drop of premium income under the Property Insurance by 6%. The decrease is mainly due to the effect of the reduced credit business of banks and the revision of insurance costs by most of our customers. The group of other insurance products includes accidents, liabilities, agriculture and railway tarsnport insurance policies. In 2011 there was premium income from railway transport amounting to BGN 3,426 thousand (for 2010 the Company did not earn any written premium income from this product).

The data in the financial statements are presented in thousands of BGN. The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis except for the financial assets and the investment property, land and buildings, which are stated at fair value. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expense for the period. Actual results may differ from these estimates. These estimates are reviewed on a regular basis and if a revision is required, it is recognized in the period in which estimates are revised. The estimates made by the management in applying IFRS, that have material effect on the financial statements and the accounting estimates with significant risk from material adjustment in the next year are presented in Note 4 _ Accounting Estimates Functional currency and foreign currency transactions The financial statements are presented in Bulgarian leva (BGN), which is the Company s functional and presentation currency. Monetary assets, receivables and liabilities in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency rate ruling at the date of the transaction and they are retranslated on a monthly basis at the official exchange rate published by Bulgarian National Bank on the last working day of the month. All exchange rate differences arising on retranslation are recognised as income or expense in the Income Statement. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction and are not subsequently restated. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Main foreign exchange rates to the Bulgarian lev are as follows: As of 31 December 2011 As of 31 December Euro BGN Euro BGN US dollar BGN US dollar BGN Reclassifications, accounting errors and changes in accounting policies The accounting policies applied are consistent with the ones adopted in the previous financial year.

39 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 3.1. Intangible assets Intangible assets acquired by the Company are initially recognized at cost, which comprises their purchase cost and any directly attributable expenditure. Internally generated intangible assets are recognized only when the Company can identify a separate asset to exist that will give rise to future economic benefits for the entity and whose value can be reliably measured. After initial recognition intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent costs are capitalized if they increase the future economic benefit of the asset. Any other costs are recognized in the Income Statement as incurred. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of the respective assets. The following annual amortization rates are applied: Intangible assets Useful life, years % Software 5 20% Licenses 5, 2 20%, 50% The useful live and amortization method of intangible assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. Changes in expected useful life or in expected model of consumption of economic benefits from the asset are reflected through a change in the useful life or amortization method, if appropriate, and are treated as changes in the accounting estimates. Intangible assets amortization costs are recognized as current expenses during the reporting period. Any gains or losses arising from derecognition of intangible assets, being the difference between the net proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are reported in the Income Statement once the asset is derecognized Investments in subsidiaries Subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The investments in subsidiaries are measured at acquisition method. The Company recognizes investment income to the extent of its share of the earnings of the subsidiary. Any amount over its share of the accumulated profits is recognized as a reduction of the original investment Investment property Property is classified as investment property when it is held to earn rental income, and not for administrative purposes or for sale in the ordinary course of business. An investment property is measured initially at cost which comprises it purchase price and any directly attributable expenditure, for example, property transfer taxes, professional fees for legal services etc. Subsequently investment property is carried at fair value, reflecting the market conditions as of the reporting date. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment property are directly recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Investment property is derecognized from the Statement of Financial Position when it is sold or leased under finance lease or when it is permanently withdrawn from use and no economic benefits are expected from its disposal. Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of investment property (determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) are recognized in the Income Statement in the period they occur.

40 3.4. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are initially recognized at acquisition cost. Acquisition costs comprise of purchase price, import duties and other cost, directly attributable to bringing the asset to the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating. Attributable costs are mainly: costs of initial delivery and handling cost; costs arising from the construction of the asset; professional fees etc. Land and buildings are measured at revalued amount, which is their fair value at the date of the revaluation less the accumulated depreciation and any possible impairment losses. The fair value is estimated on the base of professionally qualified valuers appraisal. If the value of such assets is increased as a result of revaluation, the increase is directly recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity in Revaluation reserve item, except for of the cases when it reverses a revaluation decrease previously recognized in profit or loss. In such case the revaluation is recognized as income. When there is a decrease of the fair value of an asset for which there is a revaluation reserve formed, the decrease is recognized directly through equity, reducing the revaluation reserve, up to the amount of credit balance which exists in the revaluation reserve of this asset. If there is no revaluation reserve formed (or it is insufficient), the decrease is recognized as an expense during the current period and shall be presented in the Income Statement. Plant and equipment are carried at cost less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any subsequent expenditure relating to an item of property and plant is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits of the asset or its useful life. All other expenditure such as day-to-day servicing and maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Depreciation is charged on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment as follows: Property, plant and equipment Years % Buildings % Computers % Vehicles % Furniture and equipment % Land is not depreciated. The carrying amount, the useful life and the method of depreciation of the assets must be reviewed at each financial year-end, and if necessary they should be changed. At each reporting date the Company determines whether there is any objective evidence for impairment of property, plant and equipment. An asset must be impaired when its recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount in the Statement of Financial Position. Any impairment losses in respect of plant and machinery are expensed in the Income Statement as incurred. Impairment losses in respect of land and buildings are charged directly against any related revaluation surplus. The entity derecognizes the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment from the Statement of Financial Position when the asset is sold or no future economic benefits are expects from its use. Gains and losses arising on disposal of property, plant and equipment (determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of the asset) are recognized in profit or loss in the period they occur. When revalued assets are sold, the amounts included in the revaluation reserve are transferred to retained earnings.

41 3.5. Financial assets The Company classifies its investments as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets held to maturity and loans and other receivables, other investments in equity instruments. Recognition and measurement The Company recognizes financial asset when it becomes a party under contractual relations. Any purchase or sale of financial assets is recognized on the trading day, i.e. the date on which the Company engages to buy or sell the asset. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include trading instruments which are held by the Company chiefly for the purpose of short-term profit taking as a result of changes in the asset s fair value. Such financial assets include treasury and corporate debt securities as well as investments in capital instruments of companies over which the Company does not have control or significant influence. Initially these financial assets are recognized at fair value which is equal to their cost. After initial recognition financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are remeasured at fair value, determined as of the reporting date. Any gains or losses arising as a result of the change in the fair value of these assets are recognised in the Income Statement. Any interest received during the time of possession of the financial asset are recognized in the Income Statement as interest income. Dividends from equity instruments are recognized in the Income Statement, when the right of the entity to receive payment is established. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed and determinabie payments that are not quoted in an active market. All loans and receivables are recognised upon the actual granting of the funds to the borrowers or upon establishment of the right to a receivable. These investments are initially recognised at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, these investments are carried at amortised cost. The amortized cost is the amount at which the financial assets are measured at their initial recognition minus the principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortization using the effective interest rate method of any difference between the initial amount and maturity amount and minus any reduction for impairment or uncollectability. Gains and losses from derecognition, impairment and amortization of loans and receivables are recognised in the Income Statement. The Company s right to recover from the insured or third party, liable for the damage, the payment made by the Company under an insurance contract is recognized as a recourse receivable on the day when this right is established. At each reporting date the Company assesses whether any objective evidence of impairment of loans and receivables exists. The amount of the impairment is measured as the difference between the asset s carrying value and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset s original effective interest rate. The amount of the loss is recognized in the Income Statement. If in a subsequent period the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed. The reversal shall not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised at the date the impairment is reversed. The amount of the reversal shall be recognised in the Income Statement.

42 Held-to-maturity financial assets Financial assets held to maturity are assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity, which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. These instruments are initially measured at fair value plus any expenses, directly attributable to the acquisition transaction. Subsequent to initial recognition, these investments are carried at amortized cost. Gains and losses are recognized in the Income Statement when the investments are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process. At each reporting date the Company assesses whether any objective evidence of impairment of loans and receivables exists. The amount of the impairment is measured as the difference between the asset s carrying value and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset s original effective interest rate. The amount of the loss is recognized in the Income Statement. If in a subsequent period the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed. The reversal shall not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized at the date the impairment is reversed. The amount of the reversal shall be recognized in the Income Statement. Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are not classified as loans and receivables; held-to-maturity assets or financial assets at fair value through profit and loss. They include treasury and corporate debt securities as well as investments in capital instruments of companies over which the Company does not have control or significant influence. These investments are initially recorded at fair value, which is equal to cost plus transactions costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition. The subsequent measurement of financial assets available-for-sale is also at fair value as at the reporting date. Any gains and losses arising from change in the fair value of these financial assets are recognized as a separate component of other comprehensive income, except for impairment losses, which are recognized in the Income Statement. Upon derecognition of a financial asset any accumulated gain or loss previously recognized in equity is recognized in profit and loss. Any interest received during the time of possession of the financial asset are recognized in the Income Statement as interest income. Dividends from equity instruments available-for-sale are recognized in the Income Statement, when the right of the entity to receive payment is established. At each reporting date the Company assesses whether any objective evidence exist for impairment of a financial asset or a group of financial assets. The Company has adopted that a financial asset classified as available-for-sale must be impaired when its fair value decreases by more than 50% in six months or the decrease in its fair value since the purchase till the reporting date is more than 80%. When the decrease in the fair value of an available-for-sale asset is recognized directly in equity and objective evidence exists that the asset is impaired, the accumulated loss is deducted from equity and recognized through profit or loss. The amount of the accumulated loss deducted from equity and recognized in the profit or loss is the difference between the acquisition cost (net of repayments of the principal and amortization) and the current fair value, less the impairment loss recognized previously in the profit or loss. Impairment losses, recognized in profit or loss, for an investment in an equity instrument classified as available-for-sale shall not be reversed through profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available-for-sale

43 increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss, the impairment loss shall be reversed, with the amount of the reversal recognized in profit or loss. Other capital investments As other investments in equity instruments the Company classifies investments in capital instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market. Investments in such financial instruments whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are recognized in the Statement of Financial Position at cost. Derecognition of financial assets The Company derecognizes a financial asset (or part of financial asset, if applicable), when: Contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset have expired. The Company has retained the right to receive the cash flows from the asset, but has undertaken a contractual obligation to pay all cash flows collected, without considerable delay, to a third party under a transfer transaction. The Company has transferred the contractual rights to receive cash flows form the asset, whereupon: _ the Company has transferred all or substantially all risks and rewards from the owning of the financial asset or _ the Company has neither transferred, not retained all or substantially all risks and rewards related to the asset, but has lost control over it. Upon derecognition of an available-for-sale financial asset, the accumulated revaluation reserve is derecognized from equity and recognized in the Income Statement Fair value of financial instruments Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument may be exchanged or settled in an arm s length transaction and the best proof of fair value is a market value on an active market. When available, the Company measures the fair value of an instrument using quoted prices in an active market for that instrument. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available and represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm s length basis. If a market for a financial instrument is not active, the Company establishes fair value using valuation methods or discounted cash flow techniques. The chosen valuation technique makes maximum use of market inputs, relies as little as possible on estimates specific to the Company, incorporates all factors that market participants would consider in setting a price, and is consistent with accepted economic methodologies for pricing financial instruments. Inputs to valuation techniques reasonably represent market expectations and measures of the risk-return factors inherent in the financial instrument. The valuation methods are described in detail in Note 4 herein Bank deposits Bank deposits represent cash with banks with original maturity of more than 90 days. Bank deposits are carried at cost plus any accumulated interest Cash and cash equivalents For the purposes of preparation of the Statement of Financial Positions and the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company recognizes as cash and cash equivalents all highly liquid and freely available financial assets, in cash form, funds in current and deposit accounts with original maturities of up to 90 days Impairment of non-financial assets The carrying amounts of the Company s non-financial assets at fair value are reviewed

44 at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists then the asset s recoverable amount is estimated. The recoverable amount of non-material assets still at hand for use is determined at the reporting date. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment loses are recognized in profit or loss Insurance contracts IFRS still do not contain specific requirements for recognition and measurement of insurance contracts. The accounting bases for measurement of insurance contracts the Company applies comply with the general IFRS frame and the requirements of Bulgarian legislation. Insurance contracts are those that transfer significant insurance risk over the Company. The Company defines significant insurance risk as the possibility of having to pay benefits on the occurrence of an insurance event are at least 10% more than the benefits payable if the insurance event had not occurred. Once classified as insurance contracts at the date of inception, the Company continues to recognize them as insurance contracts over the period of their duration, even if the insurance risk reduces significantly during this period, unless all rights and obligations, arising from the insurance contract have expired or have been canceled. Unearned premium provision (UPR) The unearned premium provision is formed for covering the claims and administrative expenses, which are expected to arise on the respective type of insurance contract after the end of the reporting period. The basis for calculation of the unearned premium reserve corresponds to the base for recognition of the Company s premium income. The amount of the reserve is calculated under the precise day method. Unexpired risk provision Unexpired risk provision is formed to cover risks for the period between the end of reporting period and the date on which the insurance contract expires in order to cover the payments and expenses related to these risks which are expected to exceed the UPR formed. The Company forms unexpired risk reserve when the gross technical result of certain line of business has been negative for the last three years, including the current reporting period. Outstanding claims provision Outstanding claims provision (OCR) is set to cover losses on claims for which insurance events have occurred before the reporting period, whether reported or not, and have not been paid as of the period end. The outstanding claims reserve comprises of: reported but not paid claims and incurred but not reported claims (IBNR), along with claims handling expenses. The amount of the reserve for reported but not paid claims is calculated using the claimby-claim method, according to which the expected amount of the claim payment for any reported but not settled claim is determined. The amount of the reserve for incurred but not reported claims is estimated by applying the chain ladder method. For the estimation of this reserve the Management considers the experience for the current period and the past four years. The Company reviews the claims development process, the period of occurrence and reporting of insurance events. It assumed that the delay for reporting the claims is not subject to change in time and there is a correlation between the adjacent periods claims payments developments. Deferred acquisition costs Any direct and indirect costs made for the purpose of renewal of existing and the conclusion of new insurance contracts shall be deferred for the time of the contract s term. Such costs represent mostly costs for commissions and advertisement expenses.

45 3.11. Reinsurance contracts The Company cedes part of the insurance risk it bears under insurance contracts to reinsurers. The estimated benefits for the Company from reinsurance contracts regarding outstanding claims are recognized as assets in the Statement of Financial Position when incurred. Management periodically performs an impairment test of receivables from reinsurers. A reinsurance receivable is considered impaired when objective evidence exists about an event that occurred after initial recognition of the receivable and the company may not receive entire amount due as agreed in contract as a result of this event and this event has direct impact on the amount that the company will receive from the reinsurer that could be reliably measured. If objective evidence for impairment exists, the reinsurance receivables are written down to their recoverable amount. The difference is recognised as change in the reinsurer s share in the outstanding claims reserve and as an expense in the Income Statement. The premiums ceded to reinsurers are recognized as expense when incurred Lease liabilities Leases in terms of which the Company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of liability. Finance expenses are recorded in Profit and Loss in the period incurred. Any initial direct costs are added to the amount recognised as an asset. The depreciation policy for depreciable leased assets is consistent with that for depreciable owned assets. If there is reasonable certainty that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated for a period equal to its useful life. Otherwise the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life. Leases in terms of which the Company does not assume substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are recognised in Profit or Loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease Liabilities Borrowings and other payables are initially recognised at fair value. Subsequently they are presented at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Costs are recognised in the Income Statement for the period they were incurred Provisions A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. The provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The interest of the discounted amount is recognized as a finance cost Income recognition The income from insurance contracts is recognized at the time, in which the insurance coverage becomes effective, i.e. the Company is exposed to significant insurance risk (underwriting year). The income from insurance contracts with deferred payments is accrued up to the full amount of the premium and the instalments due are recorded in the statement of financial position as insurance receivables. The premiums are reported gross of paid commissions to intermediaries. Premiums accured under cancelled contracts are derecognized. Derecognized premiums for the current reporting period

46 which correspond to insurance policies issued during the current period are recognized as a decrease of gross premium income. Derecognized premiums in the current reporting period which reflect an adjustment of premium income that was recognized in previous periods are recognized as an expense for written-off premiums. Receivables arising from liabilities of third parties liable for damage inflicted, is recognized as recourse on the date on which right of recourse is established Paid claims Paid claims expenses are recognized in the period when they occur (insurance event year). They include claims paid expenses and claim handling expenses Expenses for remuneration of agents and brokers (commission expenses) The expenses for remuneration of agents and brokers are accrued for the period which the respective premium income is related to Administrative expenses Administrative expenses comprise of personnel expenses, depreciation charges for property, plant and equipment, and amortisation charges for intangible assets, advertising costs, offices maintenance etc., to the extent that they are not reported as net commission expenses, claims incurred and investment expenses. Administrative expenses are recognized in the Income Statement in the reporting period they occurred Net investment income Net investment income comprises the Company s gains and losses from managing its assets for covering the insurance contract provisons. Investment income consist of interest income on bank deposits and assets available-for-sale; rental income of investment properties; change of fair value of financial instruments recognized at fair value through profit or loss; change in the fair value of investment properties, impairment losses of assets available-for-sale as well as income from reversal of such impairment losses; gains realized through sales of investments; foreign currency revaluations and others, net of asset management fees Employee benefits Employee benefits are all forms of considerations given by the Company in exchange for service rendered by employees. Employee benefits include wages, salaries, additional pay determined according to the applied remuneration schemes, additional pay for years served, overtime, internal replacement and others, social security contributions, including paid sick leaves, maternity leaves and others, paid annual leaves and other paid leaves. Accumulating paid annual leaves are those that are carried forward and can be used in the future if the current period s entitlement is not used in full. The Company also accrues retirement provisions which are related to legal requirements for defined post-employment benefits plans. Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably. The Company recognises as a liability the undiscounted amount of the estimated costs related to annual leave expected to be paid in exchange for the employee s service for the period completed. Termination benefits are recognised as an expense when the Company is committed demonstrably, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan to either terminate employment before the normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Termination benefits for voluntary redundancies are recognised as an expense if the Company has made an offer

47 of voluntary redundancy, it is probable that the offer will be accepted, and the number of acceptances can be estimated reliably. If benefits are payable more than 12 months after the reporting period, then they are discounted to their present value Income tax Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income. Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous years. The deferred tax is calculated through application of the liability method, in respect of any temporary differences as of the reporting date, existing between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized for temporary differences from initial recognition of assets and liabilities upon transactions that do not concern profit or loss, for neither accounting nor taxation purposes. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities against current tax assets or the deferred tax assets and liabilities will be settled simultaneously. A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which carry forward tax loses and tax credits can be utilized Deferred tax assets are reviewed as of each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized Earnings per share The Company calculates basic earnings per share for profit or loss, allocated between the holders of ordinary shares. The basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit or loss for the period, which is to be allocated between the holders of ordinary shares, by the average number of ordinary shares for the period. The Company has not issued financial instruments that give their holder the right to purchase ordinary shares (potential ordinary shares), because of which the diluted earnings per shares equal the basic earnings per share International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and interpretations (IFRIC) approved by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), which are not yet effective as of the date of the Statement of Financial Position A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2011, and have not been applied in preparing these financial statements. None of these is expected to have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Company. Standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that are not yet effective and have not been early adopted _ endorsed by the European Commission: Amendments to IFRS 7 Disclosures _ Transfers of Financial Assets (issued October 2010) _ effective from the first financial year that starts after 1 July Improvements to IFRSs 2010 (issued May 2010), various effective dates, generally 1 January IASB/IFRIC documents not yet endorsed by the European Commission Management believes that it is appropriate to disclose that the following new or revised standards, new interpretations and amendments to current standards, which are already

48 issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), are not yet endorsed for adoption by the European Commission, and therefore are not taken into account in preparing these financial statements. The actual effective dates for them will depend on the endorsement decision by the European Commission. IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (issued November 2009) and Additions to IFRS 9 (issued October 2010) has an effective date 1 January 2015 and could change the classification and measurement of financial instruments. In May 2011 the IASB issued IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, IFRS 11 Joint arrangements, IFRS 12 Disclosures of Interests in Other Entities and IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement, which all have an effective date of 1 January The IASB also issued IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements (2011) which supersedes IAS 27 (2008) and IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (2011) which supersedes IAS 28 (2008).

Quoted market price (unadjusted) in an active market for an identical instrument. Tier 2. Valuation techniques based on observable inputs different from the quoted prices included in Tier 1, available for the asset or liability whether directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). Tier 3. Valuation techniques using significant unobservable inputs. The table below shows analysis of financial instruments, booked at fair value, classified according the revaluation methods used.

49 Tier 1 Tier 1 Tier 3 Total As of 31 December 2011 Shares 2,686 2,686 Government securities 37,686 37,686 Corporate bonds 3,671 1,361 _ 5,032 Total 44,043 1,361 _ 45,404 As of 31 December 2010 Shares 2,215 _ 61 2,276 Government securities 21,929 21,929 Corporate bonds 2,274 3,872 _ 6,146 Total 26,418 3, ,351 There is no difference between the values of the financial assets in the Statement of Financial Position and their fair values as of 31 December 2011 and Uncertainty assessment related to technical reserves The most important estimates in the Company s financial statements are related to the technical reserves. The Company applies reasonably prudent approach to the provisioning and complies with the legal regulations. The chief actuary is licensed by the Financial Supervision Commission. The Management considers that the current level of the technical reserves is sufficient enough. The insurance risk management is described in the following attachment, and information about the provisions is provided in Notes 21 and 22. Segment reporting The Company does not report information by operating segments because the main source of risk and return is the non-life insurance business, where there is no a single internal client whose revenues exceed 10% and the Company operates on the territory of the country. If this changes in the future and the Company presents its financial statements by operating segments, then they shall be formed and presented in compliance with the requirements of IFRS 8 Operating Segments and shall be announced in Note INSURANCE RISK MANAGEMENT 5.1. Insurance risk management objectives and policies Insurance risk is the risk of occurrence of an insurance event, where the amount of damage and respectively of due indemnity exceeds the amount of the insurance reserves formed. To manage this risk the Company performs a detailed analysis of various insurance risks and reflects this in the general terms and conditions of the insurance policies. In addition, the Company transfers some of its risks to reinsurers. When choosing the type of the reinsurance treaties, the Company considers the retention levels, the specifics of the insurance products, etc. Regardless of the fact that the Company has reinsurance contracts, any possible income from the reinsurer s share in indemnities is not transferred to the insured persons. In this case the Company is exposed to credit risk of up to the liabilities that the insurer must pay according to the reinsurance treaty. The Company has adopted strict rules for selection of reinsurers. Selection is focused on reinsurers that have been awarded high credit ratings. The Company manages its insurance risk through insurance underwriting limits, procedures for approval of transactions, which involve new products or which exceed certain limits, pricing methods and centralised reinsurance management. The Company applies several methods for assessment and monitoring of insurance risk exposures, for both individual types of risks and overall risk exposure.

50 5.2. Underwriting strategy The Company s underwriting strategy seeks product diversity to ensure a balanced portfolio. At present the company offers over 80 insurance products Every year the full range of products offered is analyzed, adapted and complemented and for that purpose, both the Company s results and the insurance needs of the market are considered. A major share of the Company s insurance portfolio is taken by Motor Insurance, followed by Property Insurance. The company has also been a leader in the field of Aviation, Marine and Cargo insurance for many years Product characteristics The Company offers a list of insurance products approved by the Financial Supervision Commission. Motor Insurance The Motor line of business includes Casco, Third Party Liability Related to the Possession and Use of Motor Vehicles, Accident Insurance of Motor Vehicle Seats and Travel Assistance in Bulgaria and abroad. The risks covered completely meet the insurance coverage needs of owners, users and holders of motor vehicles. The territorial scope of these insurance policies covers all of Europe. A flexible premium tariff policy has been developed, which allows for the calculation of different policy premiums for the different insurance risks The terms and conditions of insurance contracts and the deadlines for reporting and settlement of claims are entirely consistent with the legal requirements. Property Insurance The Property Insurance group includes the insurances of household property against fire, natural perils, burglary and other usual risks. The terms and conditions of insurance contracts reflect to the utmost customers needs and they comply with the legal and regulatory requirements. When evaluating the risk associated with these insurance contracts, the Company stresses on the adequate evaluation of the insured sum and periodically surveys the insured objects. Aviation, Marine and Cargo Insurance The terms and conditions of these insurance contracts are entirely consistent with the international insurance markets. Third Party Liability Insurance The Company offers a wide range of products of General Third Party Liability policies and Professional Liability policies (including professional liability of notaries, lawyers, medical staff etc.), most of which are obligatory by virtue of a normative act. Personal Accident and Travel Assistance Personal Accident insurances cover the risk of death, permanent or temporary disability as a result of an accident Concentration of insurance risk With regards to risk concentration, Management believes that efforts were made to achieve a relatively uniform allocation of insured objects. Risk is assessed on a systematic basis by the Company experts and accumulation of insurance sums is monitored both by groups of clients and by regions Basic assumptions for calculation of the insurance provisions The process used to determine the assumptions is intended to result in neutral estimates of the most likely or expected outcome of insurance events. The sources of information used as inputs for the assumptions are internal and they are based on detailed studies carried out annually. The assumptions are reviewed to ensure that they are consistent with observable market prices or other published information. There is stronger emphasis on

51 current trends, and if there is insufficient information to make a reliable best estimate of claims development, prudent assumptions are used. Each reported claim is assessed with due regard to the claim circumstances, information available from loss adjusters and historical evidence of the size of similar claims. Case estimates are reviewed regularly and are updated as and when new information becomes available. The provisions are based on information currently available. The key methods used for the estimation of the insurance contract provisions remain unchanged from prior years and are based on expected loss ratios and on the Company s estimation of the expected loss ratios by classes of business. The assumptions that have the greatest effect on the estimation of insurance contract provisions are the expected loss ratios for the most recent accident years for the different classes of business. When assessing the incurred but not reported claims reserve (IBNR), it is assumed that the tendency for development of delays in claims reporting shall remain unchanged in the next few years. This assumption is set in the method used for calculation of the provision. In regards to the unearned premium reserve for all insurance policies with fixed insurance periods, an assumption is made that risk allocation during the period will remain uniform. For insurance policies without fixed insurance periods, an average insurance period is set, which is determined on the basis of statistical data for past period. Again, an assumption is made that risk allocation during the period will remain uniform Sensitivity analysis The table below shows ten simulations for analysis of the factors affecting Company s solvency. The analysis uses the capital position of the Company as of the reporting date as a starting point. The capital required represents the solvency margin set according to national legislation. The cover ratio represents the coverage of the required capital with own funds and is calculated as a ratio of equity to required capital. Equity funds Required capital Cover ratio Basic capital position as of 31 December ,738 27, % Change in cover ratio Increase in interest rates by 50 bp 42,160 27, % (0.02) Decrease in interest rates by 50 bp 43,365 27, % 0.02 Increase in the market value of equity instruments by 15% 43,138 27, % 0.01 Decrease in the market value of equity instruments by 15% 42,339 27, % (0.01) Increase in the market value of real estates by 10% 43,613 27, % 0.03 Decrease in the market value of real estates by 10% 41,863 27, % (0.03) Increase in bad debts by 1% 42,398 27, % (0.01) Decrease in bad debts by 1% 43,078 27, % 0.01 *Increase in claims ratio (outstanding claims reserve) by 1% 41,532 27, % (0.07) Decrease in claims ratio (outstanding claims reserve) by 1% 43,944 26, % 0.07 The results from all scenarios demonstrate a stable solvency margin. The table clearly shows that the change in the claims ratio has the strongest effect on the Company s capital base as the indicator affects both equity and required capital.

52 5.7. Liability adequacy test The chief actuary periodically performs a liability adequacy test to ensure that the reserves, less the deferred acquisition costs are sufficient to cover potential future claims payments. In the assessment of the adequacy of the insurance reserves, the Company takes into account all expected cash flows from insurance contracts, such as claim payments, claims handling expenses, etc. The unearned premium reserve adequacy test is limited to the unexpired part of the active portfolio of insurance contracts and represents a comparison between earned premiums and all costs incurred, including those for occurred claims, acquisition and administrative expenses. For the insurance products where the occurred claims and the incurred costs for the last three years, including the current year, are higher than the earned premiums, an additional unexpired risk reserve is formed. The calculations of unearned premium reserve adequacy test are presented in the table below: Type of Insurance Accident Insurance 1, Including Accident of Public Transport Passengers Illness Insurance _ 3. Motor Hull 4,917 (2,920) 6, Railroad Vehicles Insurance Aircraft Insurance 3,650 3,955 3, Marine Hull 50 (677) (866) 7. Cargo in Transit 726 (1,552) Fire and Natural Perils Insurance 12,873 8,000 9, Property Damage 2,939 (5,139) 4, Third Party Liability Related to the Possession and Use of Motor Vehicles (3,952) (16,875) (4,196) Including Motor Third Party Liability (2,886) (13,683) (2,323) Including Green Card Insurance (1,066) (3,192) (1,874) Including Border Motor Third Party Liability _ 11. Aircraft Third Party Liability 1, Marine Third Party Liability (408) General Third Party Liability 4,567 2,006 1, Credit Insurance _ 15. Guarantee Insurance _ 16. Miscellaneous Financial Losses (361) 17. Legal Expenses Insurance _ 18. Travel Assistance Total 28,779 (11,266) 21,418 The table clearly shows that during the last three years the premiums earned under MTPL insurance are lower than all costs incurred. This requires the formation of additional reserve for unexpired risks, which is a percentage from the unearned premium reserve for this insurance. The calculations for forming this reserve are presented in the following table:

53 Indicators Amount Written premiums 39,760 Unearned premium reserve at the beginning of the period 17,823 Unearned premium reserve at the end of the period 13,388 Paid claims 41,776 Outstanding claims reserve at the beginning of the period 73,091 Outstanding claims reserve at the end of the period 69,127 Expenses, including 8,670 Acquisition 5,388 Administrative 1,585 Differed acquisition costs at the beginning of the period 4,107 Differed acquisition costs at the end of the period 2,410 Gross technical result (2,287) Correction coefficient of the unearned premium reserve 1.05 Unexpired risk reserve, gross 693 Reinsurer s share (277) Unexpired risk reserve, net 416 The adequacy test of the outstanding claims reserve is verification whether the reserve formed is sufficient to cover any expected future cash flows relating to the incurred but not reported as at the end of the financial year claims. The value of expected future payments of outstanding claims is calculated on the basis of the statistics for the claims paid during the last nine years, applying the chain-ladder method. The result is increased by an additional factor (tail factor) for expected payments after the ninth year after the event. The test results are presented in a table and show that the reserves formed by the Company are sufficient to cover any future payments of outstanding claims.

Such movements affect the Company s profitability Interest rate risk At all times the Company has exposure to market interest rate fluctuations, which have an effect on its financial position and cash flows. Interest rate margins may vary as a result of changes in market conditions. Interest rates on assets and liabilities denominated in Bulgarian leva are set on the basis of the fluctuations in the base interest rate determined by the Bulgarian National Bank (BNB), whose fluctuations are predictable to a certain extent. The Company continuously monitors the fluctuations of foreign currencies, differences in the interest rates and maturity structure of its assets and liabilities. The Company also currently monitors the changes in the prices and yield of government securities traded.

The Company might not be able to collect all its receivables on already underwritten insurance contracts for which it bears the risk from occurrence of an insured event. In this case the Company undertakes actions for voluntary collection of receivables. Unless the receivables could be collected in a certain period of time, the insurance contract is unilaterally terminated by the Company.
