On behalf of the Board of Directors, please accept our warm greeting and respect. World Economy 2011 was a year with plenty of unexpected developments full of concerns for the world economy. Developments regarding the sustainability of the debts of USA economy and the crisis in Europe on one side, Arab Spring movement started in Northern Africa on the other side affected the world’s economic performance and stability. It will also affect the political future of the world. Where uncertainty in Euro was escalated and deepened, negative evaluations of international organizations regarding the region countries were at the focal point of the market. Regarding the recent developments, Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) underlined that the policy makers of Euro should take urgent decisions denoting that without necessary actions, the crisis in Euro may spread over the world economy. Following the above evaluations, ratings of the Euro zone banks and countries were rapidly decreased. After Greece, Ireland and Portugal, the global economy may face more risks due to the support request of Spain and Italy. These developments resulted in inter-country differences of growth in Euro zone. In spite of all of these instabilities, the growth rate of Euro zone remained at the level of 1,6% which was below the envisaged rate. The growth rate of China with its remarkable impact on the world economic growth was the lowest one in the last 10 quarters. This growth shortfall caused by the decisions of the policy makers to control the inflation increase. In addition to the foregoing issues, earthquake and tsunami in Japan together with Arab Spring raised the oil prices. Growth predictions of the less developed countries were revised downward due to the existing risk in Euro zone and deceleration in the growth of the developing countries like China, Brazil and India which grew about 6.6%. As a result of these developments, the World economy achieved 4% growth which was a bit less than the expectation. The upward trend continued in 2012. Persistent stagnation in Europe and weakness in US indicate that the GDP of the developed countries will grow moderately (all around 1%) or remain flat or decline perhaps seriously. Turkish Economy Turkey showed a remarkable performance in 2011, mainly supported by strong domestic demand of the last quarter of 2009 after the shrinking period in 2008. This performance started to descend slightly as of the third quarter of 2011. The industrial production data which is defined in Turkey as a growth indicator shows deceleration which may have negative impact on foreign markets developments.” The economic growth of 2011 was expected to exceed 8.0%. Turkey will have a hard landing in 2012 which is estimated by IMF to be around 2.0%. Strict control on public expenditures was continued in 2011 in spite of the election. The increase in budget expenditures was limited to 6.4% which helped to realize an inline performance within the targets. In terms of budget receipts, even higher than targets was achieved thanking to the positive effects of a strong tax collection parallel to domestic demand and restructuring public receivables. Beside dynamic consumption and considerable investments, dependency on importation of intermediate goods and energy required for the production and exportation caused structural current deficit problems. The increased global liquidity and the capital movements directed to the developing economies were other elements increasing the current deficit risk. The reflections of the European debt crisis and this problem of global nature on the world financial system are the leading fundamental threats which will be in effect in the year 2012 for the economy of Turkey. The said threats constitute considerable downwards risks on the capital movements intended to be brought to Turkey and the financing of the current deficit and the growth based on foreign savings. Furthermore, the effects which may be created by the European debt crisis on the global financial system constitute downwards risks on the performance of growth. Another effect of the European debt crisis is the downwards risks which may arise on the foreign demand through the trade channel. We are aware that in a go-slow but volatile economic environment resilience and flexibility must be the marks of our company to reach our target of efficiency improvement and growth in our diversified business. 16 Cement Sector Cement sector celebrated its 100th anniversary through successful organizations. Cement market passed an active year thanking to the strong domestic demand. Urban renewal projects conducted under TOKI municipalities’ supervision, commercial structures such as shopping centers constructed realized by real estate companies, under progress infrastructures increased domestic demand with some inter-regional differences. Different trends have been experienced in export activities due to the tough competition for reduced demand in European countries and political tension in some Mediterranean countries created by Arab Spring. In the year 2011, Çimentaş Group has realized the highest annual cement sales quantity in its history. Our company is deeply committed to improve its efficiency in a sustainable way to reduce production costs. Co-processing is an area of this commitment where our management is strongly focused to reach results of excellence. Co-processing refers to the use/ disposal of waste materials in industrial process as alternative fuel and/or raw material to generate energy. Our cement business units are concentrated on developing high synergy with our waste business units in order to have the maximum benefit from this cost-effective project. Waste Management Sector The waste management sector, which we entered in 2009 by acquiring 70% of Süreko A.Ş. located in Kula-Manisa province has improved its activities in terms of industrial waste disposal in 2011. The landfill investment for industrial waste, which is the only one in the region, shall be commencing the operation within 2012. This investment will allow and ensure a significant improvement in terms of protection of environment. In addition to these investments for industrial waste, our Group had signed a very important agreement with İSTAÇ A.Ş., a subsidiary of Istanbul Greater Municipality, through Hereko İstanbul 1 A.Ş., which is established in 2011, for the management of 700.000 t/year municipal waste corresponding to 14% of the total municipal waste collected in Istanbul for a period of 25 years. The first phase of this investment is almost completed and shall be operating in the first half of 2012. Esteemed shareholders and stakeholders, As a result of all these activities conducted in 2011, Çimentaş which is one of the leading value added centers of the country has increased its annual revenue by 17% and achieved a consolidated net profit of 37.162.000 TL with an increase of 34%. Our contrubitions to Çimentaş Education and Health Foundation has been continued in line with our social responsibility approach. Thanks to the ceaseless efforts of our employees, 2011 was a successful, profitable and productive year for Çimentaş Group. Thank You & Closing Remarks I would like to express my sincere appreciation to our employees who deliver the value experience to our customers and stakeholders each day. Their dedication and hard work are invaluable contribution to company’s performance. I would like to thank our management team that will continue to play critical roles in executing Çimentaş comprehensive growth strategy. I wish to express my gratitude to our Board of Directors and business partners for their valuable support, inputs and trust. The fundamentals of our company have not changed. We are aware that it’s required to use our energy in away to positively affect the developments more than ever. Although 2012 is expected to be a tough and busy year with respect to the global economy and the development of many political uncertainties, we are confident that year 2012 will be another year of growth and a time for Çimentaş to demonstrate its unique potential.

The process of constituting a “Waste analysis laboratory” has been commenced for Izmir and Trakya Plants. The investment for the conversion of the electro filters of the 2 kilns into bag filters which was commenced in 2011 is continuing, activation is planned to take place in the 2nd quarter of the year 2012. The infrastructure of the investments of “underground coal stock hall” and “closure of the coal lifters’ surroundings” related to the de-dusting has been prepared. The investment of “Modernization of the main drive system of the kiln number 3” in order to reduce the costs and to fully utilize the production capacity is started. Activation of this investment is planned to take place in the 3rd quarter of the year 2012. INFORMATION RELATED TO THE PRODUCTION AND SALES In 2011, total clinker production in Turkey is expected to be 53,5 million tons whereas cement production is to be expected to be around 62,5 million tons. This indicates an increase by % 2 in comparison to the previous year. A partial increase in the production of cement in comparison to the previous year can be mentioned. Exports on cement and clinker have dropped in comparison to the previous year due to the shrink in the foreign markets and due to the high demand and mobility in the domestic market. Despite the differences in the regions, domestic sales have increased. When we make an evaluation based on the main regions where the Group is active, it is noticed that the amount of increase in the domestic sales in Marmara and Aegean regions is more than the other regions, i.e. East and Southeast Anatolia regions. As a result; despite the decrease in the foreign sales, with the increase of domestic sales, Group has increased its total sales in 2011. PROFIT AND INVESTMENT POLICIES APPLIED BY THE COMPANY IN ORDER TO STRENGTHEN THE PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY The basic point of strengthening the company’s performance is received from a financial policy mainly based on equity capital. Our main shareholder Cementir Holding S.A recognizes this policy and supports the applications of the company directing the equity capital to cost decreasing investments. This point of view is effective on providing the sustainability of the profit margin. Our company, distributing profit over the market conditions via ready money or free stock certificate, creates a higher premium performance to its partners with the increase in the share value. THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES The financing of the investments and the company’s needs are mainly met equity capital together with medium and long term Turkish Lira or foreign-currency loans. The risks that can be faced by the Company are audited by the specialized groups in accordance with the main shareholder’s policies. MAIN FACTORS AFFECTING THE PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY AND THE SECTOR Energy cost, which is mainly fuel and electricity constitutes more than 50% of the entire costs of the sector as well as our company. It is known that the increase in the electricity prices over 20% with the new enforced electricity tariffs besides the increase in the fuel and petroleum coke prices affects the capacity usage of the sector and the competitiveness negatively. Considering the increase in the electricity demand due to the rapid increase in the population in the forthcoming years, it is necessary to focus on efficient usage of the present resources. In the meantime, the incentives for the waste management to provide an increase in the usage of alternative fuel in the sector should be reformed and become more attractive. One of the difficulties that the companies face in the sector is the insufficiency of port facilities. Steps that will be taken in this regard will bring a significant increase on the export quantities of Turkish cement companies. In the forthcoming period; it is expected especially that Public infrastructure investments shall also accelerate private sector investments. Urban transformation projects are considered to be a significant step in renewing the non-earthquake-resistant buildings. 20 In this context, foreign investors will invest in Turkey more due to the existing 8 million residential buildings which are required to be renewed and also with the new 2B law in which the Landlords may invest and the new regulation that will be made in the matter of reciprocity. When we consider the production capacity of the cement sector being more than 62 million tons and this year’s production quantity to be more than 53 million tons, it will be noticed that Capacity Usage Rate will remain at the level of % 85. The incentives in the energy prices that will be provided to the companies will create a result of an increase in the cement production and export revenues via an increase in the capacity usage ratio.

SECTOR OF THE COMPANY AND ITS PLACE IN THIS SECTOR The Turkish cement sector has started production with one kiln having the capacity of 20.000 ton/year in 1911 in Darıca. Afterwards, this factory has been extended in 1923 with an increase in the capacity of 40.000 ton/year. Until 1950, 4 new factories have been established in Ankara, Zeytinburnu, Kartal and Sivas and the total capacity has reached 370.000 ton/year. After 1950, the cement importation has continued due to the failure in satisfying the demands until 1970 despite the increase in the production by the establishment of Türkiye Çimento Sanayisi T.A.Ş. 21 With the new investments and the capacity increase in the ensuing years, the sector has reached the first place in capacity in Europe by its cement production capacity exceeding 80 million tons per year. With its increased capacity yearby-year, besides having a significant place in GNP, the sector protects its significance in the economic structure with its assured substantial level of employment. The cement sector, which is one of the sectors that the macroeconomic fluctuations and unsteadiness shows the first effects, is influenced negatively with the encountered economic crisis, and due to providing one of the main inputs in the construction sector, it is affected from the fluctuations in this sector directly. Sector in the present day uses its own resources with respect to the raw materials and can meet the needs of the country with its production. The cement sector having a small share in import, increases its share in export day by day and make sales to the 90 countries in the world. Çimentaş was established in 1950 in Izmir as the first cement factory in the Aegean region. In the course of time, the company, adopting itself continuously and making an increase in its production capacity, is one of the leading entities in the region, which has also taken place in all strategic markets within the country through its liaised group companies. 22 REPORT ON THE APPLICATIONS OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES I - SHAREHOLDERS I.1 Investor Relations Department The title of the “Legal Affairs Department”, which is conducting relations with shareholders in coordination with Finance Directorate has been changed as “Legal Affairs and Investor Relations Department”.

Among those new standards, the following are expected to have effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Group: • Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income require that an entity present separately the items of other comprehensive income that would be reclassified to profit or loss in the future if certain conditions are met from those that would never be reclassified to profit or loss. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012. • IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements supersedes IAS 27 (2008) and SIC-12 Consolidation -Special Purpose Entities and becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. • IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements supersedes IAS 31 and SIC-13 Jointly Controlled Entities - Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers and becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. • IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities contains the disclosure requirements for entities that have interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and/or unconsolidated structured entities and becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. • IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement replaces the fair value measurement guidance contained in individual IFRSs with a single source of fair value measurement guidance and becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. • IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements (2011) supersedes IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (2008) and becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. • IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (2011) supersedes IAS 28 Investments in Associates (2008) and becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. • IFRS 9 Financial Instruments could change the classification and measurement of financial assets and becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

Insignificant amounts are grouped and presented by means of items having similar substance and function. When the nature of transactions and events necessitate offsetting, presentation of these transactions and events over their net amounts or recognition of the assets after deducting the related impairment are not considered as a violation of the rule of non-offsetting. 2.4 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of consolidated financial statements are summarized below: 43 2.4.1 Foreign currency transactions Transactions in foreign currencies have been translated to TL at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies have been translated into TL at the exchange rates ruling at that date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognized in profit or loss. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of transaction. 2.4.2 Financial instruments Non-derivative financial assets The Group initially recognises loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. All other financial assets (including assets designated at fair value through profit or loss) are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Group is recognised as a separate asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position only when, the Group has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Non-derivative financial assets of the Group comprise trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, due from related parties. Non-derivative financial assets are recorded at their cost value. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-derivative financial assets are recognized as follows. • Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Loans and receivables comprise cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. • Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and time deposits with original maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with maturity periods of less than three-months and having no conversion risk exposure other than the impact of foreign currency changes. Non-derivative financial liabilities Non-derivative financial liabilities comprise borrowings, trade and other payables, due to related parties and short term liabilities. Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognized as follows. Financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are reflected in financial statements with their current values of reimbursement using effective interest rate, and the differences with the initial cost are reflected in the comprehensive income statement during the maturity of the liabilities. Other non-derivative financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. Short term other receivables and payables are disclosed at their cost values. The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expired. As of 31 December 2011, the Group does not have any non-derivative financial instruments (31 December 2010: None). 44 2.4.3 Tangible assets a) Quarry assets Based on the projects regarding the rehabilitation of the areas affected by the various mining operations, the net present values of expected rehabilitation and mine closure cost estimates are recognised and provided for in full in the consolidated financial statements. The estimates are reviewed and discounted using pre-tax retes that reflect the time value of money and where appropriate the risk specific to liability. Changes resulting from estimates are recognised in the costs of mine closure and rehabilitation of mining areas. On the other hand, for each querries, the rehabilitation assets are depreciated using lower of their useful life or units of production method which is the ratio of the minerals (clinker, clay, tras and pomza) mined during the period in terms of ton to the remaining proven and probable reserves in the respective area of interest (Note 10.1). Under the current programs, costs related to preventing air pollution and protection of environment are recognised in the comprehensive income statement as expense in the period they occured. b) Other tangible assets The costs of tangible assets purchased before 1 January 2005 are restated for the effects of inflation in TL units current at 31 December 2004 less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The costs of tangible assets purchased after 1 January 2005 are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (Dipnot 10.2). Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Gains or losses on disposals of property plant and equipment are included in the relevant income and expense accounts and the cost and accumulated depreciation of property, plant and equipment has been written off from the relevant accounts as appropriate. When parts of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of property, plant and equipment. Subsequent Costs The cost of replacing part of an item of property plant and equipment together with the repair and maintenance costs can be capitalised. Subsequent cost can be capitalised if it is probable that the future economic benefits will flow to the Company. All other expense items are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income on an accrual basis. Depreciation Depreciation on the property and equipment is provided on straight line method according to their useful lives from the date of recognition or assembly of the related assets. Depreciation on the leaseholds is provided on straight line method according to shortest of their rent period or useful lives. The useful lives of the related property, plant and equipments are as follows: Buildings and land improvements Machinery and equipment Leaseholds Furniture and fixture 5-50 years 4-25 years 5-6 years 4-15 years Lands are not subject to depreciation since their useful lives are accepted as unlimited. The depreciation method, useful lives and depreciated costs of the property,plant and equipment are reviewed every reporting period. c) Reclassification to investment property If a property is built to be used as investment property in the future, it is recorded as property, plant and equipment throughout the development phase. After the construction, it is classified to investment property with its fair value. Any change in fair value of investment property is recognised in profit or loss. If the use of property in the company has changed and it is held as investment property then it is presented with its fair value in the consolidated statement of financial position. 45 2.4.4 Intangible assets Intangible assets are comprised of computer rights. The costs of intangible assets purchased before 1 January 2005 are restated for the effects of inflation in TL units current at 31 December 2004 less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. The costs of intangible assets purchased after 1 January 2005 are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. If there is an impairment, the recorded value of the intangible assets are decreased to their recovarable values (Note 11). Amortization Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis in consolidated statement of comprehensive income over their estimated useful lives. The useful lives of the related intangible assets are as follows: Rights Kömürcüoda agreement 3-6 years 25 years The depreciation method, useful lives and depreciated costs of the intangible assets are reviewed every reporting period 2.4.5 Investment properties Investment properties are those which are held either to earn rent income or for capital appreciation or for both. Investment properties are measured with their fair values and the changes in their fair values are recorded under profit or loss. If the usage of the property has changed and reclassified as property, plant and equipment, the fair value of the property at the reclassification date will be considered as its cost. 2.4.6 Leases Leases in terms of which the Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition the leased asset is recognized at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments on the asset side of the statement of financial position and also as a liabilitiy on the liability side. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset. Assets leased under agreements that do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards associated with ownership to the Group, other than the legal title, are classified as operating leases. Lease payments are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income with straight line method through the term of the lease. 2.4.7 Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of the inventories includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. Cost for finished goods includes overhead costs in accordance with normal production capacity. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the costs of completion and selling expenses (Note 9). The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average cost basis. 2.4.8 Impairment of assets Financial Assets A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of the asset that can be estimated reliably. Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired can include default or delinquency by a debtor, 46 restructuring of an amount due to the Group on items that the Group would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy. The Group considers evidences of impairment for receivables at both a specific asset or on collective level. All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment. The remaining financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit risk characteristics. An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortized cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate. If financial assets are subject to significant impairment amounts when considered separately, then they are considered for impairment collectively. All impairment losses are recognized in the profit or loss. An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized. The reversal of the impairment in respect of the discounted financial assets is recognized in profit or loss. Non financial assets Carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories, deferred tax assets and investment properties are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indications of impairment. If any such indication exists then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill, impairment tests are performed every year to estimate the recoverable amount of it. The recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to that asset. Fair value less cost to sell of an asset or a cash generating unit is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, less the costs of disposal. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the profit or loss. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets. Goodwill acquired in a business combinations allocated to groups of cash generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash generating units, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the cash generating units on a pro rata basis. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. 2.4.9 Employee benefits According to the enacted laws the Group is liable to pay lump sum payments to its employees in case of retirement or the termination of the employment contract of the employees except for the rules stated in the labour laws. Such payments are computed according to the severance indemnity ceiling valid at the statement of financial position date. Employee severance indemnity recognized as the present value of the estimated total reserve of the future probable obligation of the Group (Note 17). The Group makes compulsory premium payments to the Social Security Institution and does not have any other liabilities. These premium payments are accrued at the financials as they incur. 47 2.4.10 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets A provision is recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements if as a result of a past event, the Group 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. Contingent liabilities are reviewed to determine if there is a possibility that the outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Except for the economic benefit outflow possibility is remote, such contingent liabilities is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements (Note 15). If the entry of the economic benefit to the Group is possible, explanations are included in the disclosures of the financial statements about the contingent asset. If the entry of economic benefit is certain, the asset and its related income changes are included in the financial statements at the date that they occured. 2.4.11 Revenue Revenue from sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts and volume rebates. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence exists that the significant risk and rewards of ownership have been transfered to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably. Group systematically issues invoice after the issuance goods dispatched noted and the related sales amount is transfered to consolidated comprehensive income. If there is a material amount of financing cost in the sales, the fair value is determined by deducting the future collections with the imputed interest rate in financing costs. The difference between nominal values and recorded values is realized as interest income according to accrual basis (Note 25). 2.4.12 Finance income and costs Finance income are comprised of time deposits’ interest incomes and foreign currency income. Finance costs are comprised of interest expenses of borrowings and guarantee expenses. 2.4.13 Income taxes Income taxes comprised current and deferred tax expenses.The current period tax and deferred tax are recognized directly under the equity or other comprehensive income statement. Current tax liability includes the tax payable on the taxable income for the period using tax rates enacted at the reporting date (Note 26). Deferred tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying values in the consolidated financial statements. Currently enacted tax rates are used to determine deferred income tax. The principal temporary differences arise from the restatement of property, plant and equipment and recognition of income expenses in different taxation periods. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, where as deferred tax assets resulting from deductible temporary differences are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity (Note 26). 2.4.14 Earnings per share Earnings per share disclosed in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares that have been outstanding during the related period concerned (Note 27). In Turkey, companies can increase their share capital by making a pro-rata distribution of shares (“bonus shares”) to existing shareholders from retained. Such kind of bonus shares are taken into consideration in 48 the computation of earnings per share as issued share certificates. For the purpose of earnings per share computations, the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period has been adjusted in respect of bonus shares issues without a corresponding change in resources, by giving them retroactive effect for the year in which they were issued. 2.4.15 Subsequent events Subsequent events represent the events that occur against or on behalf of the Group between the consolidated statement of financial position date and the date when the consolidated statement of financial position was authorized for the issue. As of the consolidated statement of financial position date, if the evidence with respect to such events or such events has occurred after the consolidated statement of financial position date and such events require restating the financial statements; accordingly the Company restates the financial statements appropriately. If such events do not require restating the financial statements, such events have been disclosed in the related notes (Note 31). 2.4.16 Expenses Expenses are recognised on accrual basis. Operating expenses are recognized as they incur. 2.4.17 Paid-in capital and dividends Ordinary shares are classified as paid-in capital (Note 19). Dividends distributed on ordinary shares are offset with retained earnings in the period in which they are declared. 2.4.18 Related parties For the purpose of the accompanying consolidated financial statements, shareholders, key management and board members, in each case together with companies controlled by or affiliated with them, and associated companies are considered and referred to as related parties in accordance with IAS 24 “Related Party Disclosures”. The operations with the related parties are disclosed at Note 28. 2.4.19 Statement of cash flows In the cash flow statement, cash flows are classified as operating, investing and financing activities. Cash flows from operating activities represent the Group’s cash flows generated from operating activities. Group presents operating cash flows in indirect method by adjusting net income with non cash expenses, income or expense accruals or deferrals and income and expense items related to investment or financing activities. Cash flows from investing activities represent the cash flows used in / provided from investing activities (tangible and intangible investments). Cash flows from financing activities represent the funds used in and repayment of the funds during the period. 2.4.20 Goodwill / Bargain purchase gain Business combinations is bringing together two different entities or two different operating activities by forming a different reporting type. Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method in accordance with IFRS 3 “Business Combinations”. The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired by the acquirers is accounted as goodwill (Note 12). If the cost of the acquisition is less than the fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities, then negotiated purchase gain arises and recognized in profit or loss in the period in which it occurs. Assets that are not included in the acquired company’s financial statements in business combinations, but that can be identified from goodwill, intangible assets (lide brand value) and/or contingent liabilities are recognized in the consolidated comprehensive income with their fair values as long as the fair values can be measured reliably. Goodwill in the acquired company’s financial statements can not be assessed as identifiable asset. Goodwill is allocated to the smallest cash generating units that company management can follow for internal reporting purposes for impairment tests. Goodwill impairment test are performed every year and if any indication 49 related to impairment of goodwill then impairment test are repeated more frequently. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. 2.4.21 Borrowing costs and loans received Bank borrowings are initially recognized with their amount at the date received, less any transaction cost. Subsequently, bank borrowings are reflected at their discounted cost using the effective interest method. The difference, between the amount from which the transaction costs are deducted and the discounted cost amount, is recognized as financial expense in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income during the loan period. The finance expense that occurs resulting from the received loans are reflected in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (Note 25). If the maturity of the loans is less than 12 months as of balance sheet date, it is showed in the short term liabilities; if the maturity of the loans is more than 12 months as of balance sheet date, it is showed in the long term liabilities (Note 7). 2.4.22 Accounting policies, change in accounting estimates and erros Material changes in accounting policies and accounting errors are applied on a retrospective basis and prior period consolidated financial statements are restated. The effect of change in accounting estimate shall be in the period of change if it is only related to the period of change; or it shall be recognised prospectively including the the period of the change, if the change affects both that period and the future periods. 2.5 Use of Estimates and Judgements The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting standards requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. In preparation of the consolidated financial statements, the significant estimates and judgments used by the Company are included in the following notes: Note 3 – Business combinations Note 13 – Investment property Note 26 – Tax assets and liabilities Note 17 – Employee benefits Notes 2.4.3 and 2.4.4 – Useful lives of tangible and intangible assets Note 7.1 – Impairment of trade receivables Note 14 – Debt provisions Note 12 – Goodwill 3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS On 11 March 2011, the Group acquired the tangible assets (machinery, equipment, building and fixtures that are in good condition) and the waste management contract with the municipality company, Istanbul Çevre Koruma ve Atık Maddeleri Değerlendirme Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. (“ISTAÇ”) (“Kömürcüoda contract”) from (Ekosistem Atık Ambalajları Kaynağında Kazanım Ayrıştırma ve Geri Kazanım Ltd) (“Ekosistem”) for a total consideration of TL 12.100 thousand. It has been concluded that the entirety of asset that were purchased from Ekosistem is a business since the integrated set is capable of being conducted and managed as a business by a market participant and Group intends to manage this entirety of asset as a business. Thus, this acquisiton has been evaluated within the scope of IFRS 3 Business Combinations. The bargain purchase gain arising from this acquisition amounting to TL 19.505 thousand has been recorded under “Other Income” in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (Note 24). 50 The fair values of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are recognized in accordance with their estimated fair values defined as of their acquisition date. In accordance with acquisition accounting within IFRS 3, Kömürcüoda agreement amounted to TL 28.061 thousand has been recorded as an intangible asset. The fair value of the acquired Kömürcüoda agreement has been determined by using income approach (method of discounted cash flow). The assumptions used in valuation techniques are as follows: a) Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (“EBITDA”) / Net Sales ratio and the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (“WACC”) have been considered as 34% and 16,9%, respectively. b) 34% of EBITDA / Net Sales ratio is in line with the Group’s budget prepared for 2012 and onwards, whereas the WACC is dependent on a number of macroeconomic and waste sector variables. Identifiable asset acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date are as follows: Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed Tangible assets (Note 10) Kömürcüoda Agreement (Note 11) Deferred tax liability (Note 26) Total identifiable net assets 11 March 2011 8.420 28.061 (4.876) 31.605 The goodwill recognized as a result of acquisition is as follows: Note Total consideration Fair value of the net assets acquired Bargain purchase gain 24 12.100 (31.605) 19.505 Since it is difficult to meet the required financial, organizational and other competencies to fulfill the terms of this Kömürcüoda agreement by Ekosistem considering the content and extent of the work to be performed and the capital expenditures expexted to be realized, the transaction resulted in a bargain purchase gain. 4. SEGMENT REPORTING The Group has three strategic reportable segments that were used in resource allocation and performance evaluation. These strategic reportable segments are reviewed periodically by the Group management in accordance with their performances and recource allocations since they are effected by different economic conditions and different geographical positions. The Group’s main segments are cement, ready-mixed concrete and waste management. Waste management has significantly grown with the effect of new acquisition in 2011 meeting the the criteria for segment reporting and and the operations of waste management has been followed by management. The activities of this segment are followed by management. In other segment, there are meal services which do not meet the criteria of a single reporting segment. In assessment of the segments, gross profit is considered. The Group management sees gross profits the the most suitable indicator in assessing the performance of the segments since gross profits are comparable with the gross profits of other companies in the same sector. 51 Ready-mixed Waste Segment 31 December 2011 Cement Concrete Management Other Adjustment Total Revenue External revenue 415.143 123.859 12.025 7.638 - 558.665 Intersegment revenue 39.772 20 2.221 36.396 (78.409) Net sales 454.915 123.879 14.246 44.034 - 558.665 Cost of Sales (356.156) (113.997) (8.054) (41.844) 65.415 (454.636) Gross Profit 98.759 9.882 6.192 2.190 104.029 Interest income 7.513 222 791 27 (3.046) 5.507 Interest expense (2.703) (186) (1.579) - 2.291 (2.177) Depreciation and amortisation 38.939 1.667 2.782 81 -43.469 Segments assets 1.425.589 61.604 146.904 7.302 (443.739) 1.197.660 Capital expenditure 30.759 3.533 61.553 142 (9.317) 86.670 Segment liabilities 293.121 25.751 83.351 4.123 (97.426) 308.920 Ready-mixed Waste Segment 31 December 2010 Cement Concrete Management Other Adjustment Total Revenue External revenue 364.845 96.928 7.473 9.243 - 478.489 Intersegment revenue 35.249 217 2.926 29.591 (67.983) Net sales 400.094 97.145 10.399 38.834 - 478.489 Cost of Sales (311.592) (94.510) (4.373) (36.920) 57.011 (390.384) Gross Profit 88.502 2.635 6.026 1.914 - 88.105 Interest income 5.193 49 20 10 (2.296) 2.976 Interest expense (2.694) (706) (725) - 2.296 (1.829) Depreciation and amortisation 41.078 2.294 241 53 -43.666 Segments assets 1.018.058 54.111 45.355 339.551 (353.173) 1.103.902 Capital expenditure 12.009 466 7.896 1.872 - 22.243 Segment liabilities 226.367 30.536 17.377 2.991 - 277.271 5.

GOODWILL Goodwill from purchase of Lalapaşa Goodwill from purchase of Sureko Goodwill from purchase of Elazığ Çimento Goodwill from purchase of İlion Çimento 31 Aralık 2011 138.665 21.691 13.506 1.387 175.249 31 Aralık 2010 138.665 21.691 13.506 1.387 175.249 (i) Acquisition of Lalapaşa The Group participated in the auction for Lalapaşa arranged by Saving Deposits Insurance Fund (“SDIF”) on 10 October 2005 and acquired Lalapaşa for a purchase conderation of TL 223.510 thousand (USD 166.500.000). Following the approval of Competition Board and Fund Board, Lalapaşa has been transferred to the Group on 28 December 2005 and the acquisition is recognized in accordance with IFRS 3. Goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Lalapaşa represents the excess of the cost of this acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the acquisition. There is no other identifiable tangible asset mentioned in IAS 38. 58 (ii) Acquisition of Elazığ Çimento On 21 September 2006, the Group acquired 99,99% of net assets of Elazığ Çimento for a purchase consideration of USD 110.000.000, equivalent to TL 161.116 thousand. The acquisition has been accounted for in accordance with the IFRS 3, “Business Combinations” and there is no other identifiable intangible asset mentioned in IAS 38. The resulting goodwill amounting to TL 13.506 thousand has been recognized in the consolidated financial statements. As of 30 September 2006, fair value of tangible assets has been determined by the independent experts and for the other current items, their discounted values by using the effective interest rate are considered as approximate to the fair values. In order to test the impairment of goodwillarising from the acquisitions in accordance with the IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets”, the Group considered the outcome of the recent transactions within the cement sector in Turkey in April and July 2009, by considering risks and other factors like clinker production capacity, as there is no binding sale agreement to be adjusted for incremental costs directly attributable to the sale in an arm’s length transaction, and there is no active market for such transactions. In accordance with the results of the assessment, it has been concluded by the Group management that there was no impairment of the goodwill related with the acquisitions of Lalapaşa and Elazığ business units as of 31 December 2011. (iii) Acquisition of Süreko On 1September 2009, Group purchased the 69,9% of net assets of Sureko with the price of TL 22.853 thousand in equivalent to Euro 10.759 thousand. Acquisition is valued according to the principles of IFRS 3 “Business Combinations”. Goodwill amounting to TL 21.691 thousand is recognised in consolidated financial statements. In accordance with the principles of IAS 36, goodwill from the acquisition of Sureko is subject to the impairment test. As of 31 December 2011, impairment is not detected after applying generally accepted valuation techniques taking into consideration also the current circumstances. In the valuation techniques applied, the possibility of impairment in goodwill depends on the following assumptions: a) The valuation exercises are highly sensitive to the range of EBITDA / Net Sales and the WACC, which were taken into account by the Group as 26% - 37% and 14,23% respectively. b) Range of the EBITDA/ Net Sales ratio between 26% and 37% is in line with the Company’s budget for the year 2012 and onwards; whereas the WACC is based on macroeconomic and sector specific parameters. (iv) Acquisition of İlion Çimento The Company acquired 99,99% of net assets of İlion Çimento on 3 May 2007 for a purchase consideration of USD 1.150.000 and price adjustment amounted TL 79 thousand, equivalent to TL 1.624 thousand. The acquisition is accounted in accordance with IFRS 3 “Business Combinations” and and there is no other identifiable intangible asset mentioned in IAS 38 “Intangible Assets”. The goodwill calculated following the acquisition amounting TL 1.387 thousand was recognized in the consolidated financial statements. In order to test the impairment of goodwill arising from the acquisition of Ilion in accordance with IAS 36, the Group performed discounted cash flow based on the basis of fair value less cost to sell, as a generally accepted valuation technique, at 31 December 2011. Based on impairment assessment performed by the Group management that there was no impairment of the goodwill. 59 In the valuation techniques applied, the possibility of impairment in goodwill depends on the following assumptions: a) The valuation exercises are highly sensitive to the ratio of EBITDA / Net Sales and the WACC, which were taken into account by the Group as 41% and 15,05% respectively. b) 41% EBITDA/ Net Sales ratio is in line with the Company’s budget for the year 2012 and onwards; whereas the WACC is based on macroeconomic and sector specific parameters. c)The main assumption used in the discounted cash flow is the renewal of the agreement with flying ash supplier since the expiration date of the agreement currently in force is within 2012. Considering the past experience with the supplier regarding renewals of such agreements and ongoing business relations, it is highly probable to renew the agreement without significant cost when compared with the future economic benefits expected to flow to the Group from renewal. 13.

In 2007, Çimentaş has paid the penalty of TL 2.957 thousand as the State Council did not give its decision related to stay of execution on that date. Again in 2007, Council of State decided to stay of execution. Based on the legal grounds that established a base to stay of execution, Turkish Authority Board gave another decision and fined the Çimbeton to TL 217 thousand in 2008. The Company has paid the fine penalty in cash with a discount of 25% amounting to TL 163 thousand in 2008. The Group has brought an action for rescission against the decision of Turkish Authority Board on Council of State in 2008. As of 31 December 2011, Council of State did not give its decision yet. The Investigation of the Competition Board related with Elazığ and Kars Çimento The Competition Board commenced a pre-investigation of business dealings of all cement companies operating in East and South-East Anatolian Region on 27 October 2010.

Investigation is stil ongoing. On 4 January 2012, both Elazığ and Kars submitted their third written defense to the Turkish Competition Board. Group management assessed the payment of a penalty as probable and set a provision amounting to TL 5.000 thousand as of 31 December 2011. 15.6. Contingent Liabilities Tax Authorities initiated an investigation on the accounting records of Çimentaş related to years 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 and finished its investigation. Tax Authorities criticised purchase and sale transaction of shares of subsidiary of the Group named Alfacem S.R.L. in 2005 and 2009, and foreign exchange losses and interest expenses incurred and paid related to the borrowings utilized from abroad for the financing of the purchase of the shares of the related subsidiary was rejected. As a result, Hasan Tahsin Tax Office charged a penalty amounting toTL 67.897 thousand, of which TL 21.359 thousand is original tax amount and TL 46.538 thousand is loss of tax revenue, to the Company on 23 November 2010. The Group had decided to benefit from the “Tax Amnesty Law No:6111”, which came into force on 25 February 2011, and had waived the related lawsuit and applied the amnesty on 29 April 2011. In the framework of the opportunities provided by the law, the Group had compromised with the tax office and paid a tax penalty amounting toTL 12.970 thousand which was reduced from original tax amount and tax penalties amounting to TL 67.897 thousand (note 26). Again in the same investigation report with the same reasons Tax Authorities anticipated decrease in tax losses amounting to TL 60.059 thousand by making correction in tax losses of 2008 and 2009. Group management filed a lawsuit against Hasan Tahsin Tax Office in İzmir Tax Court for the cancellation of the decision related to the decrease of tax losses in 2008 and 2009 amounting to TL 60.059 thousand on 22 December 2010. The Tax Court rejected the Company’s claim due to lack of executive decision of the administration without further investigation on 12 September 2011. The Group appealed against the decision. The decision in question has been appealed by the Group. Chamber No.3 of Council of State has decided to wait for the defense about the claim for stay order with its decision dated November 22, 2011. Even the Tax Court had resolved for the rejection of the litigation for procedural reasons stating that there is no executive and final decision of the administration, the Legal Counsel is of the opinion that, in respect of the established precedents of Council of Statet this verdict shall be abolished and the local Tax Court shall deal with the essence of the case and ultimately the litigation shall be concluded in favour of the Group as the Tax Investigation Report is full of artificial claims and grounds. Based on this opinion, Group management considered the likelihood of utilizing such tax loss carried forwards as probable and has recorded deferred tax asset over these tax loss carried forward amounted to TL 12.011 thousand As of 31 December 2011. 63 16. COMMITMENTS a) Purchase commitments As of 31 December 2011, the Group has commitment of 134 thousand tones of coal purchase (31 December 2010: 130 thousand tones). b) Sale commitments As of 31 December 2011, the Group has cement sales commitment of 759 thousand tones to different types of customers (31 December 2010: 1.239 thousand tones). 17. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS As of 31 December, the employee severance indemnity was as follows: 31 December 2011 31 December 2010 Employee severance indemnity 10.987 10.599 10.987 10.599 Provision for employee severance indemnity has been set as follows: Under the Turkish Labour Law, the Company is required to pay termination benefits to each employee who has completed one year of service and whose employment is terminated without due cause or who is called up for military service, dies or retires after completing 25 years of service (20 years for women) and achieves the retirement age (58 for women and 60 for men). Since the legislation was changed on 23 May 2002 there are certain transitional provisions relating to the length of service prior to retirement. The severance pay is calculated as one month gross salary for every employment year and As of 31 December 2011 the ceiling amount has been limited to full TL 2.731,85 (31 December 210: full TL 2.517,01). The liability is not funded, as there is no funding requirement. The provision has been calculated by estimating the present value of the future probable obligation of the Company arising from the retirement of the employees. The principal assumption is that the maximum liability for each year of service will increase in line with inflation. Thus the discount rate applied represents the expected real rate after adjusting for the anticipated effects of future inflation. The Company’s accounting policies requires the Company to use various statistical methods to determine the employee severance indemnity. The reserve has been calculated by estimating the present value of future probable obligation of the Company arising from the retirement of the employees and reflected in the financial statements. Accordingly, the following statistical assumptions were used in the calculation of the total liability: 31 December 2011 31 December 2010 Discount rate %4,48 %4,66 Turnover rate to estimate the probability of retirement %1 %1 The principal assumption is that the maximum liability for each year of service will increase in line with inflation. Thus the discount rate applied represents the expected real rate after adjusting for the anticipated effects of future inflation.

Fair value of financial instruments The Group determines fair values of financial assets by using market data and appropriate valuation methods. But, since judgment may be required in determining fair value, fair values may not reflect the amounts in the market. Group assesses fair values of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method including cash and banks, other financial assets and other short term financial liabilities as they reflect their fair value because of their short-term nature. 30. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (FAIR VALUE AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENTDISCLOSURES) The Group has classified its financial assets and liabilities as borrowings and receivables. Cash and 81 cash equivalents (Note 5), trade receivables (Note 7, Note 28) and other receivables (Note 8, Note28) are classified as loans and receivables and measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The financial liabilities of the Group are composed of trade payables (Note 7) and other payables (Note 8, Note 28) and measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The fair values are based on market values, being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of the valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had acted knowledgeably and willingly. Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation, and is best evidenced by a quoted market price, if one exists. The estimated fair values of financial instruments have been determined by the Group using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, judgment is necessarily required to interpret market data to estimate the fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein may not necessarily be indicative of the amounts the Group could realise in a current market exchange. The below methods and estimations are used for the financial instruments whose fair values can be determined. Financial Assets It is accepted that the reasonable values of foreign currency balances which are translated from the year end rates are close to the book values.Cash and cash equivalents are shown with their reasonable values. It is also accepted that the current market values of trade and related party receivablesare close to the book values. Financial assets whose reasonable value changes are recognized in the comprehensice income statement are shown with their reasonable values. Nonetheless, the values of the financial assets which are not listed, are determined with generally accepted valuation methods and if there is an impairment over these values, they are deducted and the found value is close to the reasonable values. Fair values of foreign currency asset translated into TL with the year-end exchange rate have been accepted as closing to carrying values. Carrying amounts of cash on hand and cash at banks are assessed as fair values. Carrying values of trade receivables and due from related parties are assessed as fair values because of their short-term nature. Financial assets of which change in fair values are reflected in comprehensive income are reflected with their fair values. However, values of financial assets available for sale but not quoted in any stock exchange calculated by generally accepted valuation methods or their cost approximate to their fair values. Financial Liabilities Values of trade payables, due to related parties and other financial liabilities measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method are assessed as fair values. Fair values of foreign currency liabilities translated into TL with the year-end exchange rate have been accepted as closing to carrying values. 31. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS With the Board of Directors decision dated 6 March 2012, the Company has decided not to distribute dividend as there is no distributable dividend after subtracting retained losses from current year profit in statutory records. 32. OTHER MATTERS THAT SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OR MAKE THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CLEAR, INTERPRETABLE AND UNDERSTANDABLE None. 82 83 PROPOSAL FOR PROFIT DISTRIBUTION Although the Company has “term profit” both in legal and CMB records, there is also previous years’ loss in the legal records of the Company. In accordance with the applicable laws in order to reach distributable profit the “term profit” should be deducted from the previous years’ loss initially. As a result of such deduction there is no distributable profit in the legal records of the Company. In accordance with the CMB decision taken on 25.02.2005 with no.7/242; “in case any one of the financial statements prepared in line with the CMB regulations or tax records is resulting with loss, no profit distribution is done” and as there is no distributable profit after the deduction of term profit from the previous years’ loss it is resolved to propose to the General Assembly not to distribute dividends. 84 85 REPORT BY THE STATUTORY AUDITORS To The General Assembly of Çimentaş İzmir Çimento Fabrikası Türk A.Ş.
