Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 (all amounts are in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated) 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 General Post and Telecommunications of Kosovo J.S.C. (“the Company”) is a Joint Stock Company incorporated in the Republic of Kosovo. The Company's head office is located at Dardania Street, Prishtina, Republic of Kosovo. The Company provides telecommunication services, such as mobile and fixed telephony, postal services and internet services. As at 31 December 2011 the Company has 3,349 employees (2010: 3,384). 1.2 Background information PTK enterprise was an enterprise within the meaning of UNMIK Regulation No. 2005/18, amending UNMIK Regulation No. 2002/12 “On the Establishment of the Kosovo Trust Agency” (“KTA”). Regulation 2005/18 has given to KTA the authority to transform enterprises into corporations. At a meeting dated 9 May 2005, the Board of Directors of the KTA resolved to transform PTK enterprise into a joint stock Company, named Post and Telecommunications of Kosovo Holding, J.S.C. On the incorporation date 22 June 2005, PTK Holding effectively substituted the former “enterprise” formerly doing business as “Post and Telecommunications of Kosovo” on a continuing basis, without liquidation. PTK enterprise was the first enterprise that was transformed into a Corporation under the KTA Regulation and Administrative Directive 2005/6. KTA, acted as trustee for the ultimate owners of Kosovo’s enterprises pursuant to the KTA Regulation, was the current holder of 100 percent of the shares of PTK Holding. The issued share capital upon incorporation amounts to Euro 260 million. Shortly after its incorporation, PTK Holding formed an operating Company, Post and Telecommunications of Kosovo J.S.C. (“PTK”) and transferred certain of its assets to PTK as a capital contribution. PTK Holding was the 100% shareholder of Post and Telecommunications of Kosovo J.S.C. The registered capital of the wholly owned subsidiary amounts to Euro 250 million, and the shares of the subsidiary were issued in exchange for certain net assets contributed in kind by PTK Holding. Given the practical effect of the transformation and of incorporation, the Tax Administration has approved the restructuring process of PTK enterprise as “reorganization” for the purposes of Section 24.1 of UNMIK Regulation No. 2004/51 “On Corporate Income Taxes”. On June 13, 2008, the Assembly of the Republic of Kosovo approved the Law on Publicly owned Enterprises (Law No.03/L-087), and based on provision of section 3 of this Law, Central publicly owned Enterprises including PTK JSC are declared to be assets of the Republic of Kosovo. Government of the Republic of Kosovo has through the Ministry of Economy and Finance the exclusive authority to exercise the shareholder rights over the Publicly owned Enterprises. On 13 October 2009, the Government has issued a decision for merging of this two companies PTK Holding and PTK JSC into one company Post and Telecommunications of Kosovo J.S.C. (“the Company”) with registered capital of Euro 5,000,000, composed of five million common shares with nominal value of Euro 1 per share. All shares are issued in the name of Republic of Kosovo. At 31 December 2011, the Government has issued a decision on the establishment of the Public Central Enterprise Post of Kosovo JSC. The Public Central Enterprise Post of Kosovo JSC established the separation of the Postal Unit from the current division of Public Enterprise Post and Telecommunications of Kosovo J.S.C.. 7 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C. Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 (all amounts are in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated) 1.3 Business activities At 31 December 2011, the Company has three business units, two of which are licensed by Telecommunication Regulation Authority of Kosovo (“TRA”), one of them is also authorized by the TRA for offering internet services and one is licensed by the Ministry of Transport and Communications: Postal Unit (“Post”) Banking and Payments Authority of Kosovo (“BPK”) has issued to PTK a non-banking financial license which enables the Post to offer cash payment and receipt services to third parties. On 15 May 2006, the Ministry of Transport and Communications have issued the License for providing Universal Postal Services to PTK. Fixed Telecommunications Unit (“Fixed Telecommunications”) The Fixed Telecommunications Unit is the only licensed network and service provider of fixed telecommunication services to retail and business customers in the territory of Kosovo. Fixed Telecommunications Unit also offered internet services from 2001 and today is one of three operators offering internet services in Kosovo, authorized by the TRA. Mobile Telephony Unit (“Vala”) Vala is the GSM mobile operating unit and is currently one of two licensed network and service providers of mobile telecommunication services in Kosovo. PTK enterprise entered into an agreement in 2000, to provide mobile services in Kosovo, with Monaco Telecom International (“MTI”) which entitles PTK to use the MTI international dialing code and enables PTK to connect its mobile network to international networks. As a component of this agreement PTK compensate MTI with a share of revenues and pay certain international traffic costs. During 2006, the contract between MTI and PTK J.S.C. has been re-negotiated and amended. The new framework Agreement covers the use of Monaco’s International Dialing Code, International traffic, Roaming and technical know-how transfer. In addition the framework Agreement provides for a termination clause in the event that Kosovo acquires an International Dialing Code (IDC) of its own. Also in May of 2009, the contract between MTI and PTK JSC was re-negotiated and changed, again. New Annex of the Framework Contract covers the use of the Monaco International dialing code, international traffic, roaming and transfer technical knowledge, which came into force on 1 January 2010. In addition, the annex of the new framework contract covers a provision for termination of contract if Kosovo provides / receives its own code as well as international calls for reduction of tariff code. 8 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 (all amounts are in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated) 2 2.9 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Property, plant and equipment (i) Recognition and measurement Items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost or deemed cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment provisions. Deemed cost represents revalued cost of certain items of property, plant and equipment revalued on 1 January 2005, the date of transition to IFRSs, to fair value in relation to the initiated incorporation of PTK Holding. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labor (if involved), any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located. Capital expenditure on assets in the course of construction is carried forward under Assets under construction and is capitalized and transferred to the appropriate asset category once completed, from which time depreciation is applied at the rate applicable to the category concerned. When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. (ii) Subsequent costs The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognized in statement of comprehensive income as incurred. Gains and losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amount and are taken into account in determining the operating result for the period. (iii) Depreciation Depreciation is recognized in statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment. Land and assets under construction are not depreciated. The estimated useful lives for the major classes of assets are as follows (in both 2011 and 2010): 20 years 10 years 20 years 20 years 5 years 5 to 10 years The useful lives, deprecation methods and residual values, if not insignificant, of property, plant and equipment are reassessed at the reporting date.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 (all amounts are in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated) 2 2.10 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Intangible assets (i) Recognition and measurement Intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. (ii) Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognized in profit or loss when incurred. (ii) Amortization Amortization is recognized in statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets from the date they are available for use. The estimated useful lives are as follows (in both 2011 and 2010): 2.11 5 years 15 years Software Telecom Licenses Impairment of non-financial assets Property, plant and equipment, as well as intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized in statement of comprehensive income. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s net selling price and value in use. The net selling price is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm’s length transaction while value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Recoverable amounts are estimated for individual assets or, if it is not possible, for the cash-generating unit. 2.12 Financial assets The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: loans and receivables and available for sale financial assets. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held-for-trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short-term. Assets in this category are classified as current assets. The Company has no assets classified in this category as of reporting dates. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the balance sheet date. Company’s loans and receivables at the balance sheet date consist of trade and other receivables as well as cash and cash equivalents. 12 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C. Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 (all amounts are in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated) 2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.12 Financial assets (continued) Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment within 12 months of the statement of financial position date. Purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on trade-date – the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset. Recognition and measurement All financial assets other than assets at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs. Available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Changes in the fair value of monetary and non-monetary securities classified as available-forsale are recognized in equity. When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognized in equity are included in the statement of comprehensive income as gains and losses from investment securities. Interest on available-for-sale securities calculated using the effective interest method is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income as part of other income. Dividends on available for sale equity instruments are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income as part of other income when the group’s right to receive payments is established. The fair values of quoted investments are based on current bid prices. If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), the Company establishes fair value by using valuation techniques. The fair values of quoted investments are based on current bid prices. If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), the Company establishes fair value by using valuation techniques. In case of available for sale investments, significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the assets below their cost is considered in determining whether the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available for sale financial assets, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognized in profit or loss – is removed from equity and recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. Impairment losses recognized in the statement of comprehensive income on equity instruments are not reversed through the income statement. Impairment testing of trade receivables is described in this Note 2.13. 2.13 Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. The cost includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and bringing them to their existing location and condition. The cost of inventories consumed is based on the weighted average formula. 13 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C. Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 (all amounts are in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated) 2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.14 Trade receivables Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganization, and default or delinquency in payments (more than 30 days overdue) are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Assets with a short maturity are not discounted. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account, and the amount of the loss is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. When a trade receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account for trade receivables. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are recognized as current income in the statement of comprehensive income. 2.15 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. 2.16 Share capital Share capital and retained earnings (i) Shareholders’ capital Share capital represents the nominal value of shares that have been issued. (ii) Share issue costs Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options or to the acquisition of a business are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. (iii) Treasury shares Where the Company purchases equity share capital, the consideration paid is deducted from total shareholders’ equity as treasury shares until they are cancelled. Where such shares are subsequently sold or reissued, any consideration received is included in shareholders’ equity. (iv) Reserves Reserves were created during 2009 by merging of two companies PTK Holding and PTK JSC, upon decision of the Government for allocation part of consolidated equity into reserves. (v) Retained earnings Retained earnings comprise of non-distributed earnings from the current and past periods. 2.17 Trade payables Trade payables are carried at their fair value and subsequently measured at their amortized cost by applying the effective interest rate method. 14 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C.

The costs incurred on behalf of the Company are charged to statement of comprehensive income as incurred. Short-term benefits Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided. A provision is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under a short-term cash bonus if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably. 2.19 Provisions A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. 2.20 Recognition of revenue Mobile service revenue Mobile service revenue from prepaid scratch and sim cards is recognized based on usage. Unused airtime is included in “deferred income” in the Statement of financial position. Upon the expiration of pre-paid scratch cards, any unused airtime is recognized as income.

Final tax on profit at a rate of 10% are payable based on the annual profit shown in the statutory statement of income as adjusted for items, which are non-assessable or disallowed. According to the current tax legislation, tax losses may be carried forward within a period seven years following the year in which the tax loss was incurred. Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that they probably will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. 16 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 (all amounts are in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated) 3 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 3.1 Financial risk factors The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest risk, cash flow interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial performance. This note presents information about the Company’s exposure to each of the above risks, the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the Company’s management of capital. Further quantitative disclosures are included throughout these financial statements. The management has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market and legislative conditions and the Company’s activities. 3.2 Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers and investments in bank deposits. Trade receivables The Company establishes an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables and investments. The main components of this allowance are a collective loss component established for similar customers in respect of losses that have been incurred but not yet identified. The collective loss allowance is determined based on historical data of payment statistics for similar financial assets. Investments in bank deposits The Company has significant current and investment accounts with all of Kosovo’s bank institutions. Guarantees The Company’s policy is to provide financial guarantees only upon a decision of authorized directors or other key management personnel. The process of managing the credit risk from operating activities includes preventive measures such as creditability checking and prevention barring, corrective measures during legal relationship for example reminding and disconnection activities, collaboration with collection agencies and collection after legal relationship as litigation process, court proceedings, involvement of the executive unit and factoring. The overdue payments are followed through a debt escalation procedure based on customer’s type, credit class and amount of debt. 18 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C. Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 (all amounts are in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated) 3 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) 3.2 Credit risk (continued) The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the statement of financial position as summarized below: 2011 2010 Classes of financial assets - carrying amounts: Available-for-sale financial assets Financial receivables Trade receivables Cash and cash equivalents 240 13,152 16,458 32,804 62,654 240 2,196 15,311 45,195 62,942 The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents is considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings. The age structure of trade receivables is as follows: 2011 2011 Gross amount Impair. Up to 30 days From 1-3 months From 3-6 months From 6-12 months Over 1 year 7,773 5,595 2,371 2,045 40,114 57,898 2011 Net amount (119) (255) (421) (1,206) (39,439) (41,440) 2010 2010 Gross amount Impair. 7,654 5,340 1,950 839 675 16,458 7,470 4,998 2,226 1,589 39,154 55,437 2010 Net amount 164 268 359 846 38,489 40,126 7,306 4,730 1,867 743 665 15,311 As of 31 December 2011 the credit quality of Company’s trade receivables is as follows: Carrying amount Impairment provision 3.3 Neither past due nor impaired 7,773 7,773 Past due but not impaired 8,685 8,685 Impaired 41,440 (41,440) - Total 57,898 (41,440) 16,458 Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company could not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time. The Company’s policy is to maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents to meet its commitments in the foreseeable future. Finance sector is preparing cash flow forecasting for liquidity requirements to ensure that there is sufficient cash to meet operational needs at any time. The forecasting takes into consideration the Company’s debt financing plans and compliance with internal balance sheet ratio targets. Any surplus cash held by the Company over and above balance required for working capital needs is usually deposited in commercial banks. The table below analyses the Company’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity based on the remaining period at the financial position date to the contractual maturity date. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant. Great part of the trade payables has maturity within one year. 19 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C.

The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return. Foreign exchange risk As a whole, the Company is not exposed to currency risk because: revenue is earned in Euro purchases of main assets and materials used in the Company’s investment activities are denominated in Euro financial assets are denominated in Euro. Price risk The Company is not significantly exposed to equity securities price risk since beside the available-for-sale financial assets disclosed in Note 8, there are no other investments classified as available-for-sale, which could be affected by risk variables such as stock exchange prices. Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s investments in bank deposits. Company’s bank deposit accounts earn interest at commercial rates fixed at the date of the respective contract and mature upon fixed dates. The Company had no interest-bearing borrowings in both 2011 and 2010. 20 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C.

The Company has no interest-bearing borrowings in both 2011 and 2010. 3.5 Capital risk management The management’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. Due to the external restrictions imposed by the environment (e.g. inability to place deposits abroad, lengthy procurement processes, etc.) the management of the Company cannot implement an efficient capital management specific to liberalized economies. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year. The Company is not subject to contractual or legally imposed capital requirements. 3.6 Fair value estimation Fair value represents the amount at which an asset could be replaced or a liability settled on an arms length basis. Fair values have been based on management assumptions according to the profile of the asset and liability base. 3.6.1 Financial instruments presented at fair value The financial assets measured according to the fair value in the Statement of financial position in accordance with the hierarchy of the fair value are shown in the next table. This hierarchy groups the financial assets and liabilities into three levels that are based on the significance of the incoming data used during the measurement of the fair value of the financial assets. The hierarchy according to the fair value is determined as follows: Level 1: quoted prices (not adjusted) on the active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2: other incoming data, aside from the quoted prices, included in Level 1 which are available for asset or liability observing, directly (i.e. as prices), or indirectly (i.e. made of prices) and Level 3: incoming data on the asset or liability that are not based on data available for market observing. 21 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C.

They are measured according to their fair value on basis on their market value at the Statement of financial position date. 3.6.2 Financial instruments that are not presented at fair value The following table summarizes the carrying amounts and fair values to those financial assets and liabilities that are not presented on Statement of financial position at their fair value. Carrying value 2011 2010 Fair value 2011 2010 Assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade receivables Financial receivables Total assets 32,804 16,458 13,152 62,414 45,195 15,311 2,196 62,702 32,804 16,458 13,153 62,415 45,195 15,311 2,196 62,702 Liabilities Trade payables Accruals and other payables Total liabilities 6,587 5,424 12,011 6,991 6,063 13,054 6,587 5,424 12,011 6,991 6,063 13,054 Trade receivables Trade receivables are carried at amortized cost, less provisions for impairment. Due to their short maturity, their fair value corresponds to their carrying value. Cash and cash equivalents The fair value of monetary assets that includes cash and cash equivalents is considered to approximate their respective carrying values by definition and due to their maturity of less than 3 months. Trade payable Carrying value of trade payable approximates their fair value, due to their short maturity. 22 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C. Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 (all amounts are in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated) 4 ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS Management discussed with the Audit, Finance and Insurance Committee, an Advisory Committee to the Board of Directors of PTK J.S.C., the development, selection and disclosure of the critical accounting policies and estimates and the application of these policies and estimates. Key sources of estimation uncertainty Lack of an interconnection agreement with Telekom Serbia PTK connects international fixed calls to foreign administrations through Belgrade on the fixed lines managed by Telekom Serbia. Neither in the past nor currently have formal contracts between PTK and Telekom Serbia been established. An interconnection agreement that would regulate mutual relationships with regard to telecommunications traffic is absent. PTK’s management considers it unrealistic to expect any kind of retrospective settlement in regard to telephone traffic between Telekom Serbia and PTK and, instead, estimates it possible that, pending further political developments between Kosovo and Serbia, it might take more years before an interconnect agreement between the two parties is established. In the absence of a formal interconnection agreement that would set out the tariffs for incoming and outgoing calls to/from the ‘381’ network, it is impractical to measure the value of the traffic to and from the ‘381’ network. It is measurable, however, that the incoming calls to the ‘381’ network areas in Kosovo (“calls terminating in Kosovo”) are significantly higher than the outgoing traffic from Kosovo to abroad (“outgoing calls”). This indicates that if a settlement takes place, it would be likely to give rise to net revenue in favor of PTK. As a retrospective settlement is considered unrealistic at present, these financial statements do not reflect any financial effect from such international traffic in regard to assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Recoverability of bank accounts and deposits Subsequent to the end of 2005, Credit Bank of Pristina, with which the Company had deposits at 31 December 2005, went into receivership following the withdrawal of its licence by Banking and Payments Authority of Kosovo on 13 March 2006. Provision has been made in these and prior year financial statements for the balances at 31 December 2011 and 2010 of Euro 11,923 thousand and Euro 12,492 thousand respectively, as significant uncertainty exists on the recoverability of the balances with this bank. In 2011, Euro 569 thousand (2010: Euro 10 thousand) are reimbursed and recognized as income accordingly. To the extent that it is still not possible to determine the outcome of the liquidation process and the amount of the deposits guaranteed by BPK, significant uncertainty exists on the recoverability of the balances with this bank. Therefore, an impairment loss of 100% of the amounts held with the bank has been provided. If there are enough liquidation assets to cover creditors’ claims, revenue will be recognised in future periods up to the recovered amount. Land used by the Company The management are of the opinion that certain plots of land are deemed to be owned by PTK in view of continuing use within the definitions of Kosovo ownership. A value cannot be applied to these assets at the present time. At the time of the verification of assets exercise this item was excluded, due to the uncertainty of legal title. 23 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C. Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 (all amounts are in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated) 4. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (CONTINUED) Key sources of estimation uncertainty (continued) Buildings used by the Company During the verification of assets exercise in prior period the ownership of certain buildings, identified as in use or under the control of PTK, could not be established, due mainly to the lack of accessibility or lack of ownership documentation. A value cannot be applied to these assets at the present time. Useful life of assets The determination of the useful lives of assets is based on historical experience with similar assets as in broad economic or industry factors. The appropriateness of the estimated useful lives is reviewed annually, or whenever there is an indication of significant changes in the underlying assumptions. We believe that the accounting estimate related to the determination of the useful lives of assets is a critical accounting estimate since it involves assumptions about technological development in an innovative industry. Following this the Company had made an assumption that the useful live of assets should remain the same as the previous year. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. When determining the net realizable value, the most objective evidence / data available at the making of assessments are taken. Recoverability of trade receivables Impairment for doubtful accounts is calculated based on estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. We base our estimate on the aging of our account receivables balance and our historical write-off experience, customer creditworthiness and changes in our customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the impairment loss for doubtful accounts. These involve assumptions about future customer behavior and the resulting future cash collections. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, actual write-offs of currently existing receivables may be higher than expected and may exceed the level of the impairment losses recognized so far. 24 POST AND TELECOMUNICATION OF KOSOVO J.S.C.
