o Portfolio of six commercial properties acquired through purchase of a €78 m loan facility at a total cost of ca. €40 m. Following the transaction, the Group regained control over the properties with net rental income of €5.5 m, reflecting 13.8% yield on total acquisition costs. Revaluation of this portfolio for year-end contributed €42.5 m of the total revaluation surplus.
o Acquisition of a multi let complex of office buildings in Stuttgart with net annual rent of approx. €4.5 m reflecting 8.1% yield on the total acquisition costs of ca. €55 m.

Financing activities improving cash flow
· Interest expenses were cut by 50% through financing activities. Interest expense amounted to €10.2 m (2014: €20.9 m) as a result of:
o Early repayment of ca. €50 m of shareholders loan which resulted in €4.75 m of annual interest savings.
o Decrease in costs of debt due to refinancing and expiry of legacy swaps.
o €33 m financing of 9 of 11 properties acquired in 2014 provided on a seven years term at a low interest rate of 1.96% per annum. Two properties remained unmortgaged.

· After the end of the reporting period, we announced and paid a dividend of 0.95 cents per share.
· The total dividend distribution for 2015 amounted to 3.39 cents per share, reflecting a 4.8% yield on the placing price of 70 cents per share.
· The last dividend of 0.95 cents reflects an annualised yield of 5.4% and is indicative of the dividend levels going forwards.

Chairman's and Managing Director's Report
We are very pleased to present the Group's results for the year ended 31, December 2015.
The reporting year 2015 has been very exciting for the Group. Following a second fund raising on 2 February 2015 we have pursued our strategy and successfully brought our portfolio expansion plan to realisation. We are delighted with the Group results, which not only show the strong performance of our portfolio, but also demonstrate the continued benefits of our strategy over the past periods.
Increase in EPRA NAV and profit from revaluation
The Company's second fund raising and the profit generated during the reporting period contributed greatly to the increase in the Group's EPRA NAV to €427.5 million as of the end of the reporting period. The EPRA NAV has recorded a 67% increase over €255.4 million in 2014. The Group's NAV increased by €164.7 million and reached €409.4 million at the end of the reporting period (31 December 2014: €244.7 million). EPRA NAV per share post dilution and dividends is 92 cents (31 December 2014: 87 cents).
At the second fund raising the Company issued 171,428,571 new ordinary shares at a price of 70 cents by way of a placing on AIM. The successful admission of shares had a strong impact on the Group's EPRA NAV and has contributed €120 million (excluding capital raising costs) to it. The placing proceeds have enabled the Group to realise its expansion plan acquiring new properties during the reporting period, as detailed below. Further acquisitions have been made in 2016 to date.
The improved performance of the Group's portfolio and its acquisitions had a positive effect on the Net Market Value ("NMV") of the properties. An independent valuation carried out as at 31 December 2015 resulted in a valuation surplus of €55.3 million, which further contributes to the increase in NAV and reflects an increase of 8.5% on the portfolio value including costs of new acquisitions. Revaluation of the six properties portfolio for year-end contributed €42.5 m of the total revaluation surplus. As of 31 December 2015, the NMV of the Group's portfolio was €731.7 million (31 December 2014: €582.6 million).
Despite the dilutive effect of the shares issued in February 2015 and dividend payments in 2015, the period ended with an EPRA NAV per share of 92 cents, reflecting a premium of more than 31% on the share price of 70 cents at the time of the second placing.
The Group's accomplishments in both the operational and the financial aspects of the portfolio significantly improved the profit from ongoing operations, which has more than doubled during the reporting period and amounted to €31 million (2014: €14.9 million). The outstanding improvement was partly offset by a non-recurring financial expense of €11.6 million, related to the repayment of the shareholders loan, which resulted in annual cost saving of €4.75 million.
Realising our portfolio's expansion plan
By actively managing our stable portfolio while focusing on the future, we vigorously progressed our targeted plan of expansion and brought it to realisation shortly after completion of the second placing. Our experienced team of professionals pursued the market opportunities to acquire accretive properties and restructure deals to maximise yields.
Leveraging a substantial pipeline of acquisitions, we successfully invested €95 million in new properties within just a few months. A portfolio of six commercial properties was purchased via a loan acquisition at an implied rental yield of 13.8% and a complex of office buildings in Stuttgart was purchased through a corporate share transaction at a rental yield of 8.1% per annum.
Notwithstanding the additions to our portfolio, we have continued our expansion activities and acquired an additional €40.5 million of further properties post period end. The properties, located in Munich, Duisburg and Frankfurt were purchased at an implied average rental yield of approximately 7.4%. Together with long term bank financing at an average interest rate of 2% per annum, these acquisitions will contribute approximately a 14% return on the invested cash and blended FFO yield of 20.5%.
We believe that there are opportunities to further enhance the value of the acquired properties through the letting of vacancies, part conversion to residential uses and development of surplus land. As such, in addition to their material contribution to the Group's future cash flow, the properties make an excellent addition to our existing portfolio.
Dividend
Since listing on AIM, the Group has paid quarterly dividends at an increasing rate to its shareholders.
In January 2015, prior to the Group's second fund raising, the Group distributed a dividend of 1.2 cents per share, reflecting an annual yield of 7.6% on the IPO price of 63 cent.
Whilst not having the placing proceeds fully deployed in 2015 following the second fund raising, but still acknowledging the importance of dividend to its shareholders, the Group has distributed two quarterly dividends of 0.77 cents per share each in April and August 2015. While the same amount of cash has been paid to the shareholders at each payment date, the dilutive effect of the new shares resulted in an annual yield of 4.4% on the increased number of shares and on the higher placing price of 70 cents.
In November 2015, following the deployment of part of the placing proceeds, the Group paid a higher dividend of 0.90 cents per share, reflecting an annualised yield of 5.1%. A further increase in the dividend rate has been made after the reporting period, when the Group distributed a dividend at a level of 0.95 cents per share, reflecting an annualised yield of 5.4%.
The board of Directors believes that the recent expansion of the property portfolio and the improvement in the Group's FFO should permit the Group to consider increasing future dividends, generating even higher dividend yield for its shareholders.
Outlook
2015 has been a very satisfying year for the Group, full of tremendous achievements in all areas of operations and prominent especially by the outstanding realisation of our expansion plan.
Identifying the challenging but rewarding opportunities in the German market, we set the goal towards expansion and commenced to promote our strategy of growth.
Acknowledging the importance of a stable and sustainable portfolio as a firm platform for the Group to grow from, we sought to strengthen our portfolio both financially and operationally. We have improved the financial stability of our portfolio through major refinancing activities, cutting interest expenses by more than half. In parallel our active asset management team secured lettings to maintain the high occupancy rate and rental income of the portfolio.
Within just a few months after the successful fund raising in February 2015, we brought our expansion plan to realisation and deployed most of the proceeds by acquiring great accretive properties in attractive locations. Following the additional acquisitions after the end of the reporting period, we are now fully invested.
Owing to our professional ambitious team, we were able to move fast in the highly competitive German market and lock in acquisitions that perfectly match our strategy. All of the properties are well located, have a stable long term income and bear an excellent applied yield. They make a great contribution to our cash flow and NAV, as clearly presented in our results, published today. In addition, we are confident that the Group will benefit from a substantial upside potential inherent in the properties by further letting of vacancies and future residential development.
We wish to express our thanks to our Property Team who have performed very professionally and with alacrity in the demanding and competitive German market, and for the asset management initiatives and letting campaigns which bring "added value" to the portfolio.
We are encouraged by the German market, which has been strongly driven by the "interest free" environment, turning Germany into an ever appealing investment market. Demand for the Group's properties continue to be strong and we believe that an increase in rent levels in Germany could have a future boost effect on the value of our portfolio when yields may be tightening.
Though the increasing demand for German real estate offers interesting acquisition opportunities, the expected future yield compression will force us to maintain a disciplined approach towards new acquisitions in an ever demanding market. The board is confident, that the Group is well positioned to take advantage of the market trends and to benefit from them.
Throughout the year we were very pleased to deliver dividends at increasing rates. Looking forward, we believe that our robust solid portfolio, reinforced by the recently integrated acquisitions, will generate additional cash flow to support higher dividend payments.v

NOTE 1: GENERAL
A. Summit Germany Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (together: the "Group") is a German property specialist company. The Company was incorporated and registered in Guernsey on April 19, 2006. The parent company of the Group is Summit Real Estate Holdings Ltd (hereinafter: "SHL"), a company registered in Israel.
The Group owns, enhances and operates commercial real estate assets in Germany including office buildings, logistic centers and others, which are leased to numerous commercial and industrial tenants. The Group invests primarily in such properties that provide substantial income flows and potential for value increase through asset management. The Group does not acquire properties for speculative purposes.
The Company was a closed ended authorised investment scheme registered under The Protection of Investors Law (Bailiwick of Guernsey) 1987. In December 2013, the Company and its shareholders approved to apply to the Guernsey Financial Services Commission (the "GFSC") for consent to deregister as a closed ended authorised investment scheme under The Protection of Investors Law (Bailiwick of Guernsey) 1987. This request was approved by the GFSC on January 21, 2014.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparation
These Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared under Going Concern basis after management and Board of Directors carefully considered relevant factors underlying Group's financial position.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for investment properties and financial instruments that are measured at revalued amounts or fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Basis of preparation (Cont.):
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these consolidated financial statements is determined on such a basis, expect for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope of IFRS 2, leasing transactions that are within the scope of IAS 17, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in IAS 2 or value in use in IAS 36.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
• Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
• Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Reportable segments - The Group operates in one segment, being a commercial real estate in Germany. Therefore, no further segments information is presented.
Statement of compliance:
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU ("IFRS") and The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008.
Basis of consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (and its subsidiaries). Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Basis of consolidation (Cont.):
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
The results of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.
All intra-group balances and transactions are eliminated in full on consolidation.
Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the Group.
Business combinations and goodwill:
If, after reassessment, the Group's interest in the fair value of the acquirer's identifiable net assets exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquire and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquire (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquire (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
Revenue recognition:
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, and similar allowances. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
Rental income:
Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Revenue recognition: (Cont.)
Interest income:
Interest revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Interest revenue is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset's net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Interest income is presented in finance revenue in the statement of comprehensive income.
Foreign currencies:
In preparing the financial statements of the individual entities, transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional currency, which is Euro, are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
Taxes:
Income tax expense represents the sum of tax currently payable and deferred tax.
Current Taxes:
The Company is subject to taxation under the laws of Guernsey. The Company qualifies for exempt status, which results in no Guernsey taxation on income it receives, including interest and dividends received, or capital gains from the disposal of investments. Exempt status is achieved by application. Application is made to the Director of Income Tax in Guernsey for confirmation that the Company is eligible for exempt status under the Income Tax (Exempt Bodies) (Guernsey) Ordinance, 1989. The exemption must be reapplied on an annual basis. The subsidiaries are subject to income taxes in their country of domicile in respect of their income. The ordinary corporate income tax rate in Germany as of December 31, 2015 is 15.825% (December 31, 2014: 15.825%).The majority of the Group subsidiaries are subject to German tax which will include RETT on property transactions, where applicable.
Deferred tax:
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Taxes (Cont.):
Deferred tax (Cont.):
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Financial assets
Initial recognition:
Financial assets are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables and available-for-sale financial assets. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (regular way purchases) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
The Company's financial assets include cash and short-term deposits, trade and other receivables, unquoted financial instruments, and derivative financial instruments.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Financial assets (Cont.)
Subsequent measurement:
The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification as follows:
Loans and receivables:
Loans and receivables are non‑derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such financial assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised in the consolidated income statement when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.
Available-for-sale financial assets:
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classified in any of the three other categories of financial assets (Fair Value through profit or loss, held to maturity or loans and receivables). After initial measurement, available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value with unrealised gains or losses recognised directly in equity until the investment is derecognised, at which time the cumulative gain or loss recorded in equity is recognised in the income statement, or determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative loss recorded in equity is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
Financial Assets at Fair Value through Profit or Loss ("FVTPL"):
Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when the financial asset is either held for trading or it is designated as at FVTPL.
A financial asset is classified as held for trading if:
· it has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling it in the near term; or
· on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
· it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.
A financial asset other than a financial asset held for trading may be designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:
· such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or
· the financial asset forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Group's documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or
· It forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement permits the entire combined contract (asset or liability) to be designated as at FVTPL.
Financial assets at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognised in the consolidate statement of comprehensive income. Fair value is determined in the manner described in note 18.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Financial assets (Cont.)
Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Group recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Group continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss.
On derecognition of a financial asset other than in its entirety (e.g. when the Group retains an option to repurchase part of a transferred asset), the Group allocates the previous carrying amount of the financial asset between the part it continues to recognise under continuing involvement, and the part it no longer recognises on the basis of the relative fair values of those parts on the date of the transfer. The difference between the carrying amount allocated to the part that is no longer recognised and the sum of the consideration received for the part no longer recognised and any cumulative gain or loss allocated to it that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss. A cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is allocated between the part that continues to be recognised and the part that is no longer recognised on the basis of the relative fair values of those parts.
Financial liabilities
Initial recognition:
Financial liabilities within the scope of IAS 39 are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The Group determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.
Financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans and borrowings, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The Group's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, bank overdrafts, loans and borrowings and derivative financial instruments.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Financial liabilities (Cont.)
Subsequent measurement:
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification as follows:
Loans and borrowings:
After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Gains and losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the amortisation process.
Offsetting of financial instruments:
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated statement of financial position if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is either an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group's obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.
Fair value of financial instruments:
The fair value of financial instruments that are actively traded in organised financial markets is determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business on the statement of financial position date. For financial instruments where there is no active market, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques may include using recent arm's length market transactions; reference to the current fair value of another instrument that is substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation models.
Amortised cost of financial instruments:
Amortised cost is computed using the effective interest method less any allowance for impairment and principal repayment or reduction. The calculation takes into account any premium or discount on acquisition and includes transaction costs and fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Impairment of financial assets:
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred 'loss event') and that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
Due from loans and receivables:
For amounts due from loans and receivables carried at amortised cost, the Group first assesses individually whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future expected credit losses that have not yet been incurred). The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
Interest income continues to be accrued on the reduced carrying amount based on the original effective interest rate of the asset. Loans together with the associated allowance are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery and all collateral has been realised or has been transferred to the Group.
If, in a subsequent year, the amount of the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is increased or reduced by adjusting the allowance account. If a future write-off is later recovered, the recovery is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
The present value of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate. If a loan has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Available-for-sale financial investments:
For available-for-sale financial investments, the Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is objective evidence that an investment or a group of investments is impaired.
In the case of equity investments classified as available-for-sale, objective evidence would include a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the investment below its cost. Where there is evidence of impairment, the cumulative loss - measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that investment previously recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income - is removed from equity and recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Impairment losses on equity investments are not reversed through the consolidated statement of comprehensive income; increases in their fair value after impairment are recognised directly in equity.
Derivative financial instruments
Initial recognition and subsequent measurement:
The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps to hedge its risk sassociated
with interest rate, and foreign currency exchange hedge of the shareholder loan. Such derivative financial
instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into
and are subsequently re-measured at fair value.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value on derivatives during the year that are qualified for hedge accounting are recognised in Other Comprehensive Income. Any gain or loss which is not qualified for hedge accounting is recognised in profit and loss.
At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Group formally designates and documents the hedge relationship to which the Group wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the entity will assess the hedging instrument's effectiveness in offsetting the exposure to changes in the hedged item's fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Hedges which meet the criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as follows:
Cash flow hedges
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss, and is included in the 'other gains and losses' line item.
Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item is recognised in profit or loss, in the same line of the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as the recognised hedged item. However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously accumulated in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the non-financial asset or non-financial liability.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the Group revokes the hedging relationship, when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or when it no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss accumulated in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Investment properties
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. The carrying amount includes the cost of replacing part of an existing investment property at the time that cost is incurred if the recognition criteria are met; and excludes the costs of day to day servicing of an investment property. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the statement of financial position date. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in the profit or loss in the year in which they arise.
Investment properties are derecognised when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income in the period of derecognition.
Transfers are made to or from investment property only when there is a change in use. For a transfer from investment property to owner occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequent accounting is the fair value at the date of change in use. If owner occupied property becomes an investment property, the Group accounts for such property in accordance with the policy stated under property, plant and equipment up to the date of change in use.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Impairment of assets:
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the asset's recoverable amount.
Cash and short-term deposits:
Cash and short-term deposits in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.
Trade and other receivables:
Trade receivables, which generally have 30-90 days' terms, are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. Provision is made when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the debts. Bad debts are written off when identified.
Provisions:
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
NOTE 3: CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of Group's accounting policies which are described in Note 2 above, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in future periods.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty:
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the consolidated statement of financial position date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Revaluation of investment properties:
The Group carries its investment properties at fair value, with changes in fair values being recognised in the profit or loss. The Group engages independent valuation specialists to determine fair value of investment properties on an annual basis. The valuation technique used to determine fair value of investment properties is based on a discounted cash flow model as well as comparable market data.
The determined fair value of the investment properties is sensitive to the estimated yield as well as the long term vacancy rate. The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the investment properties, are further explained in Note 5.
NOTE 3: CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY (Cont.)
Taxation
Uncertainties might exist with respect to the interpretation of complex tax regulations, changes in tax laws, and the amount and timing of future taxable income. Given the Group's international business relationships and the nature of contractual agreements, differences arising between the actual results and the assumptions made, or future changes to such assumptions, could necessitate future adjustments to tax income and expense already recorded. In previous years the Group establishes provisions, based on reasonable estimates, for possible consequences of audits by the tax authorities of the respective countries in which it operates.
Deferred taxes
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies. (See also note 17).
Acquisition of assets
In regard to the transactions detailed in note 5, the Group management and the Directors have reviewed the characteristics of the transaction and the properties over which control was regained by the Group, in accordance with the requirements of IRFS3(R). Although control over corporate entities was gained as a result of the transaction, these entities were special purpose vehicles for holding properties rather than separate business entities - this judgment was made mainly due to the absence of business processes inherent in these entities. Consequently, the Directors consider that the transaction meets the criteria of acquisition of assets and liabilities rather than business combination, and accounted for the transaction as such.

IFRS 9 Financial Instrument
IFRS 9 issued in November 2009 introduced new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. IFRS 9 was subsequently amended in October 2010 to include requirements for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities and for derecognition, and in November 2013 to include the new requirements for general hedge accounting. Another revised of IFRS 9 was issued in July 2014 mainly to include a) impairment requirements for financial assets and b) limited amendments to the classification and measurement requirements by introducing a 'fair value through other comprehensive income' (FVTOCI) measurement category for certain simple debt instruments.

IFRS 9 Financial Instrument (cont.)
Key requirements of IFRS 9:
· All recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are required to be subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. Debt instruments that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and that have contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, are measured at FVTOCI. All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at their fair value at the end of subsequent accounting periods. In addition, under IFRS9, entities may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income, with only dividend income generally recognised in profit or loss.
· With regard to the measurement of financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss, IFRS 9 requires that the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liablitity is presented in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability's credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value attributable to a financial liability's credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Under IAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as fair value through profit or loss is presented in profit or loss.
· In relation to the impairment of financial assets, IFRS 9 requires an expected credit loss model, as opposed to an incurred loss model under IAS 39. The expected credit loss model requires an entity to account for expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit losses at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition. In other words, it is no longer necessary for a credit event the have occurred before credit losses are recognised.

IFRS 9 Financial Instrument (Cont.)
Key requirements of IFRS 9 (Cont.):
· The new general hedge accounting requirements retain the three types of hedge accounting mechanisms currently available in IAS 39. Under IFRS 9, greater flexibility has been introduced to the types of transactions eligible for hedge accounting, specifically broadening the types of instruments that qualify for hedging instruments and the types of risk components of non-financial items that are eligible for hedge accounting. In addition, the effectiveness test has been overhauled and replaced with the principle of an 'economic relationship'. Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness is also no longer required. Enhanced disclosure requirements about an entity's risk management activities have also been introduced.
The directors of the Company anticipate that the application of IFRS 9 in the future may have a material impact on amounts reported in respect of the Group's financial assets and financial liabilities. However, it is not practicable to provide a reasonable estimate of the effect of IFRS 9 until the Group undertakes a detailed review.
IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
In May 2014, IFRS 15 was issued which establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. IFRS 15 will supersede the current revenue recognition guidance including IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction Contracts and the related interpretations when it becomes effective.
The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity should recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Specifically, the Standard introduces a 5-step approach to revenue recognition.
· Step 1: Identify the contracts(s) with a customer.
· Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
· Step 3: Determine the transaction price.
· Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.
· Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

2. New and revised IFRSs in issue but not yet effective (Cont.)
IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Cont.)
Under IFRS 15, an entity recognises revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when 'control' of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. Far more prescriptive guidance has been added in IFRS 15 to deal with specific scenarios. Furthermore, extensive disclosures are required by IFRS 15.
The directors of the Company anticipate that the application of IFRS 15 in the future may have a material impact on the amounts reported and disclosures made in the Group's consolidated financial statements. However, it is not practicable to provide a reasonable estimate of the effect of IFRS 15until the Group performs a detailed review.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle
The Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle include a number of amendments to various IFRSs, which are summarised below.
The amendments to IFRS 5 Introduce specific guidance in IFRS 5 for when an entity reclassifies and asset (or disposal group) from held for sale to held for distribution to owners (or vice versa). The amendments clarify that such a change should be considered as a continuation of the original plan of disposal and hence requirements set out in IFRS 5 regarding the change of sale plan do not apply. The amendments also clarifies the guidance for when held-for-distribution accounting is discontinued.
The amendments to IFRS 7 provide additional guidance to clarify whether a servicing contract is continuing involvement in a transferred asset for purpose of the disclosures required in relation to transferred assets.
The amendments to IAS 19 clarify that the rate used to discount post-employment benefit obligations should be determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on high quality corporate bonds. The assessment of the depth of a market for high qualify corporate bonds should be at the currency level (i.e. the same currency as the benefits are to be paid). For currencies for which there is no deep market in such high quality corporate bonds, the market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds denominated in that currency should be used instead.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of these amendments will have a material effect on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

B. Fair value measurement of investment properties (Level 3 classification)
1. The fair value of investment property is determined at least once a year or when indications of value changes arise, based on a valuation performed by independent reputable experts.
The valuation is performed using the income capitalisation method, which is a valuation model based on the present value of expected Net Operating Income per property. Real estate valuations are based on the net annual cash flows after capitalisation on discounted rates that reflect the specific risks inherent in property activity.
The valuations reflect the profile of the tenants which are legally committed to the lease agreement and the remaining economic life of the asset. The market rents used in the valuation vary per location, uses and condition of the property, age and level of finishing of various assets, even in the same building. Average rent in respect of office space can range from €4-20 per month per square meter; for retail properties, between €4-26 per month per square meter; for logistics properties between €2-16 per month per square meter. For office, commercial and logistics properties, discounted rates range between 5.5 % -10.0%.
In estimating the fair value of the properties, the highest and the best use of the properties is their current use.
NOTE 5: INVESTMENT PROPERTIES (Cont.)
B. Fair value measurement of investment properties (level 3 classification) (cont.)
1. (Cont.)
A number of factors contribute to the value of retail properties, such as national and local economic development, investment demand created by property investors, and interest rates.
While changes in investment properties' fair value have an effect on the Group's profit for the financial year, they do not have an immediate impact on cash flow.
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the entity's investment properties are rents achieved at market (when these increase, an increase in properties value may occur), discount rates (when these increase, a decrease in properties value may occur) and occupancy rates (when these increase, an increase in property values may occur). Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Sensitivity to change in the properties' fair value, or the risk associated with fair value, can be tested by altering the above key parameters. Furthermore, the effect of the change in each parameter is not necessarily similar - as such, changes in the rents and discount rates might have a more significant effect on the properties' value than similar change of the occupancy rates. In addition it is noted that changes in different parameters might occur simultaneously. For example a change in occupancy may connect to a change in market rents when they impact fair value simultaneously.

NOTE 5: INVESTMENT PROPERTIES (Cont.)
C. Additions
1. The Group previously owned two portfolios over which, in 2012, the Group lost control due to breach of covenants (LTV). The relevant properties, which have been structurally ring-fenced, were then deconsolidated. In April 2014, the Group completed an acquisition of a loan facility that financed one of these previously owned portfolios, which was secured by 11 commercial properties in Germany. The total cost of the acquisition was approximately €45 million plus transaction costs. On acquisition of the loan facility, the Group gained full control over the 11 properties and thus, these were consolidated from the date of acquisition (see note 3 for details of the accounting treatment). The properties were revaluated to €73 million. Profit from revaluation of properties of approximately €28 million was recognized in the Fair Value of Investment Properties line item.
On acquisition, the portfolio comprised mainly office properties throughout Germany. It has an aggregate Net Lettable Area of ca. 90,000 sqm and a current occupancy rate of 71%. The properties generate an aggregate Net Annual Rent of approximately €6.3 million.
The above transaction was initially financed by Group funds. In March 2015 it was replaced with a 7 year term debt facility received from a German bank for 9 of the 11 portfolio properties, as further detailed in note 7B.
NOTE 5: INVESTMENT PROPERTIES (Cont.)
C. Additions (Cont.)
2. In July, 2015 the Group completed an acquisition of a loan facility of a portfolio of 6 office properties in Germany, at total acquisition costs of approximately €40 million plus minor deal expenses. The properties were part of the second portfolio mentioned under section 1. As a result of the acquisition of the loan facility, the Group regained full control over the aforementioned six properties and consolidated them from the date of acquisition (see note 3 for details of the accounting treatment). The acquired portfolio has a lettable area of 63,000 sqm at an occupancy rate of 72% and it generates an aggregate annual net rent of approximately €5.5 million.
The revaluation of the properties resulted in a revaluation profit of approximately €42 million, which was recognized in the income statement under Fair Value of Investment Properties.
3. During the third quarter of 2015 the Group has acquired a 135,000 sqm complex of office buildings in Stuttgart, Germany, for a total acquisition cost of approximately €55 million.
The 135,000 sqm complex includes 63,000 sqm of lettable area at an occupancy rate of 95% and rights for further development of additional 55,000 sqm. It generates an aggregate annual net rent of approximately €4.5 million.
Additions after the end of the reporting period:
4. In January 2016 the Group acquired two office buildings in Germany for a total acquisition cost of €15 million.
The acquisition was financed by the Group's own resources and by a €10.5 million loan facility provided by a German bank for a period of 10 years at a fixed interest rate of 1.8% per annum and an annual principal repayment rate of 3%.
The properties with a lettable area of 12,000 square meters generate an aggregate net rent of € 1.2 million per annum.
5. In March 2016 the Group acquired a complex of three office buildings in Oberursel, Germany, for a total price consideration of €25.5 million.
The acquisition was financed by the Group's own resources and by a €18.5 million loan facility provided by a German bank for a period of 10 years at a fixed interest rate of 2.26% per annum and an annual principal repayment rate of 2.5%.
The complex with a lettable area of 18,000 square meters generates an aggregate net rent of € 1.8 million per annum.
D. As of 31 December, 2014 properties valued at approximately €1.8 million were reclassified as held for sale. During the reporting period the properties were sold for a consideration similar to their carrying amount.
As of 31 December, 2015 properties valued at approximately 3.6 million were reclassified as held for sale. After the end of the reporting period these properties were sold for a consideration similar to their carrying amount.

(1) Available-for-sale investment -unquoted equity shares:
Investments in Ordinary shares in related companies. Group interests in these companies were not accounted for using the equity method because of lack of significant influence (the Group has neither voting rights, nor representation in the management of these companies). The fair value of the investments at the end of the reporting period is based on the market values of the companies' investments in real estate.
In April, 2014 the Group sold part of this investment for a consideration of €1.1 million. The carrying amount of the relevant investment was €0.6 million.
(2) Long-term loans receivable
A subsidiary of the Group has an agreement to provide funding for three residential projects in Berlin up to a sum of €6.2 million (€1.7 million for the first project, € 1.9 million for the second and € 2.6 million for the third). The Group is entitled to a minimum interest rate of 15% plus a share in the projects' profits. The loans and the accrued interest are repayable from the revenues of the projects, in May 2016, however the final payment date is expected to be prolonged and therefore, these are presented in long-term assets.
Up to December 31, 2015, the Group has provided funding at a total amount of approximately €6.8 million and accrued the related interest.
To secure the recoverability of these loans, the Group received a lien over the shares of the entrepreneurial companies and lien rights over the projects and their income. In addition, the loans are secured by personal guarantees of shareholders of the entrepreneurial companies and the developers have committed not to grant a lien naming rights over the project, except a lien in favour of the financing bank, and not to allot any securities of the entrepreneurial companies without the consent of the Group.
In 2014 the Group agreed to subordinate the loan it provided, in favour of a bank financing which was required for the projects.
The projects, which include 131 residential units in total, are at different development stages. The first project of 56 residential units is approximately 98% sold and its construction is expected to be completed in a few months. The construction of the second project has already begun and 67% of its 39 residential units are sold. The third project of 35 residential units is approximately 51% sold and its construction is expected to begin within the next few months.

NOTE 13: BALANCES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (Cont.)
(a) In February 2015, the Company exercised an option for an early repayment of the loan from SHL, its parent company ("Shareholder Loan"). The loan was provided by SHL in 2013 in order to finance an acquisition of part of the RBS debt, as detailed in Note 7a and 7c to the 2014 financial statements. The annual loan interest was 9.5% and the loan agreement included various financial covenants.
Following exercise of the early repayment option, the Company has fully repaid the Shareholders Loan at the beginning of the reporting period, including its outstanding interests as of the day of repayment and an early repayment fee which amounted to approximately €4.5 million (recognised as financing expense in the profit and loss).
(b) The balance as at 31 December 2014 includes:
1. Amounts due to SHL, of approximately €7.5 million, out of which:
· €4.5 million are due to SHL from a cash injection to SGL, to finance the RBS refinancing transaction discussed in note 7.
· €1.4 million due to dividends payable in 2014.
· €1.6 million due to other transactions with SHL during 2014.
2. Provision for management fees to the management company amount to €250 thousands (2014: 970 thousands including performance based compensation, according to management agreement).
(c) In April 2014, the company Board of Directors approved a one-time bonus to the Company's Finance Director and to one of the Company's Directors in amount of €50 thousand Euros each, for their contribution to the IPO in February 2014.

Assets Management Company and ultimate controlling party:
At the date of this report Summit Real Estate Holdings Ltd which holds approximately 50.01% of the Ordinary shares in the Company. SHL is under the control of Mr. Zohar Levy, a Managing Director of the Group. Summit Management CO S.A. ("SMC"), a company controlled by Zohar Levy, was appointed as an Asset Manager on 19 May 2006. The terms of this appointment were revised in February 2014.
NOTE 13: BALANCES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (Cont.)
Terms and conditions of the management agreement
The management agreement was amended in February 14, 2014 in preparation for Admission to AIM. According to the amendment of the agreement, SMC is responsible for providing certain public company services and advisory services to the Group, including the services of the Group's Managing Director and Finance Director.
Since the Admission of the company, SMC is entitled to an advisory fee equal to €750,000 per annum, payable quarterly, and to a performance-based bonus of up to €750,000 per annum depending on certain performance criteria (as detailed below). The advisory fee reflects the asset management costs on the level of SMC including the cost of employment of the Managing Director and the Finance Director, if relevant, together with certain administrative and other costs of the company.
The annual bonus may be payable in each accounting year, where the amount of €750,000 is the "Maximum Bonus" based on hurdles to be determined by the remuneration and nomination committee of the Group. The bonus shall be payable if the Group's Funds From Operations ("FFO") is equal to or greater than 112% of the FFO determined by remuneration and nomination committee of the Group for the applicable accounting year ("Base FFO"). Where the Company's FFO in the accounting year is above the Base FFO but less than 112% of the Base FFO, SMC shall be entitled to an amount equal to the pro-rata proportion of the Maximum Bonus. Any Bonus which SMC is entitled to receive in any relevant accounting year shall be reduced by an amount equal to any carried interest amount paid to SMC pursuant to the articles of association of SFL in respect of the same accounting year, provided that any Bonus shall not be reduced to less than zero.
As at December 31, 2015 the performance criteria were met and following the approval of the remuneration and nomination committee of the Group, the performance-based bonus of €750,000 has been paid by the Group.
The articles of association of SFL ("SFL Articles") contain certain provisions which relate to SMC's carried interest entitlement in respect of their services provided under the initial Portfolio Management Agreement from 2006. SMC holds special B shares in Summit Finance Limited which will give it the right to receive a carried interest if the Company distributes a cash return on shareholders' equity of at least 8% in any financial year ("the Hurdle"). SMC will be entitled to receive 25% of the cash return in that year in excess of the Hurdle after deducting the carried interest entitlement. If the Company has not achieved a cash return on shareholders' equity of at least 8% in any previous year ("a Shortfall"), the carried interest will not be paid until the Shortfall has been made up. Where such fees arise, they are charged to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. No amounts were ever due in respect of aforementioned. As of December 31, 2015, the Shortfall is approximately €188.9 million. Therefore, the likelihood that SMC would be entitled to receive any carried interest is extremely low.
NOTE 13: BALANCES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (Cont.)
(d) Compensation of key management personnel of the Company (Cont.):
Terms and conditions of the management agreement (Cont.)
SFL articles were amended so SMC's entitlement to receive any carried interest payable is by virtue of its ownership of B shares in SFL. The SFL Articles and the amended Portfolio Management Agreement provide that the B shares may be held by whoever is the appointed asset manager under the Portfolio Management Agreement or any other asset or portfolio management agreement to which the Group is a party from time to time.

NOTE 17: TAXATION (Cont.)
D) Based on the Group's expectations, future sales of investment properties will be implemented through a sale of the shares of the company owning the assets, rather than a direct sale of the assets. Therefore, for the purpose of calculating deferred taxes the tax rate applicable to the sale of shares was used. This policy was implemented regarding all of the Company's holdings in investment properties, except for its holding through "Deutsche Real Estate AG" (a subsidiary purchased in August 2007), for which the Group has a different legal structure
E) Group's carried forward tax losses for which deferred taxes were not recognized, are €51 million Euros, (during 2014: €81 million).
NOTE 18: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Group's principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise mainly bank loans, and trade payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to raise finance for the Group's operations. The Company has various financial assets such as trade receivables and cash and short-term deposit. As to derivative transactions, see note 7.
The main risks arising from the Group's financial instruments are market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk as summarized below.
Market risk:
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices comprise two types of risks that are relevant to the Company: Interest rate risk and Price risk.
· Interest rate risk:
The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group's long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.
The Group's policy is to fix the interest rate of its bank loans by entering into fixed interest rate loan agreements and by entering into interest rate swaps, in which the Group agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable rate interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount. At December 31, 2015 after taking into account the effect of interest rate swaps, the majority of the Group's borrowings are at a fixed rate of interest. All interest rate swap contracts exchanging floating rate interest amounts for fixed rate interest amounts are designated as cash flow hedges in order to reduce the Group's cash flow exposure resulting from variable interest rates on borrowings. The interest rate swaps and the interest payments on the loan occur simultaneously and the amount accumulated in equity is reclassified to profit or loss over the period that the floating rate interest payments on debt affect profit or loss.

The Group's marketable securities and available for sale financial instruments are susceptible to price risk arising from uncertainties about future values of the investment in those instruments. The Group manages the equity price risk through diversification and placing limits on individual and total equity instruments. The Company's senior management monitors value and extent of such investments on an ongoing basis.
The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to equity price risks at the end of the reporting period:

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations, as reflected as of the period end in Group's financial statements, under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities.
The Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of its lessees and the financial statements include specific allowances for doubtful accounts which, in management's estimate, adequately reflect the underlying loss of debts whose collection is doubtful.
The Group does not have significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if they are related entities.
NOTE 18: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Cont.)
Credit risk on investments in marketable securities is limited as investments are in high credit rating and usually represent asset backed securities or guarantees. Diversity and credit rating are monitored on an ongoing basis.
The carrying amount of financial assets recognised in financial statements net of impairment losses represents Group's maximum exposure to credit risk, without taking into account collateral or other credit enhancements held.
Collateral and other credit enhancements are obtained in most cases, pursuant to management assessment of the client's credit quality and an assignment of its credit limits.

The directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at amortised cost in the financial statements approximate their fair values.
The financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 2 and 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.
· Level 1 fair value measurements marketable securities are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
· Level 2 fair value measurements (swaps) are derived from inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for those instruments directly (i.e. as prices).
· Level 3 fair value measurements (available-for-sale investment - unquoted equity share) are derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

(a) The change in unquoted equity shares from December 31, 2015 resulted mainly from the sale of part of a financial participation for an amount of €330 thousands. During 2015 the Group has recorded an increase in the value of investment in the unquoted equity in the amount of €124 thousand (During 2014: €569 thousand) presented in other comprehensive income - net profit (loss) arising on revaluation of available for sale financial asset.
(b) Derivative instruments:
While entering the original credit facilities in 2006, the Group contracted hedging instruments under the form of "Interest rate swaps" at a fixed rate of 0.9%-1.2% up to the initial repayment date.
The interest rate swap agreements had been contracted in order to protect the Group from an increase in the interest rate. The interest rate swaps meets the criteria of hedging instrument under IAS 39 and are therefore reported at fair value through other comprehensive income.
The calculation of fair value for derivative financial instruments depends on the type of instruments: Derivative interest rate contracts - The fair value of derivative interest rate contracts (e.g., interest rate swap agreements) are estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using current market interest rates and yield curve over the remaining term of the instrument.
NOTE 18: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Cont.)
(b) Derivative instruments: (Cont.)
Following the refinancing of the major 3 credit facilities of the Group In December 2014, the Group contracted new hedging instruments under the form of "Interest rate swaps" at a fixed rate of 0.9%-1.2% from the initial repayment date to the new repayment date at the end of 2021.
€1,480 thousand (2014: €1,086 thousand) of the balance is presented in current liabilities, and €3,614 thousand in non-current liabilities (2014: €3,969 thousand in other long-term financial assets).
