INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Shareholders of Croatia Airlines d.d., Zagreb:
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Croatia Airlines d.d., Zagreb (the‘Company’) and of Croatia Airlines d.d., Zagreb and its subsidiaries (the ‘Group’), whichcomprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2006, and the related income statement,statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year then ended, and asummary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statementsin accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. This responsibility includes:designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fairpresentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due tofraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accountingestimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.We conducted our audit in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing. Thosestandards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit toobtain reasonable assurance as to whether the financial statements are free from materialmisstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts anddisclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’sjudgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financialstatements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditorconsiders internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financialstatements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, butnot for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entities’ internalcontrol. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies usedand the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluatingthe overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide abasis for our audit opinion.
Matters affecting opinion
As described in Note 6, the Company transferred the revaluation surplus which represents thedifference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset anddepreciation based on the asset’s original cost, in the amount of HRK 24,676 thousand throughthe Income statement in accordance with Croatian Tax Law. This is a departure from InternationalAccounting Standard 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment, which requires that revaluationsurplus should be transferred directly to retained earnings. The retained earnings in the balancesheet at 31 December 2006 is understated, and net income for year then ended is overstatedby the amount of HRK 24,676 thousand.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the year ended 31 December 2006
Summary of Significant AccountingPolicies
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International FinancialReporting Standards (IFRS) as published by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for aircraftand spare engines included in tangible fixed assets, which have been revalued. The principalaccounting policies adopted are set out below.
a) Revenue recognition
Sales of goods are recognised net of sales taxes and discounts when delivery has taken placeand transfer of risks and rewards has been completed.
b) Passenger revenue
Passenger ticket sales are recorded as revenue when the transportation is provided. Thevalue of unused tickets is included in current liabilities as Air Traffic Liability until the date theticket expires, after which they are credited to income.
c) Frequent Flyer awards
The Company operates a frequent flyer award program that provides travel awards to membersbased on accumulated mileage. The Company does not accrue for incremental costs formileage accumulated in relation to this program because the Company believes, based onpast experience, that such costs are immaterial.
d) Interest income
Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and atthe effective interest rate applicable.
e) Leases
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantiallyall the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operatingleases.
f) The Group as lessor
Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of therelevant lease.
g) The Group as lessee
Assets held under finance leases are recognised as assets of the Group at their fair value atthe date of acquisition or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Thecorresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet as a finance lease obligation.Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligationso as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Financecharges are charged directly against income, unless they are directly attributable to qualifyingassets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the Group’s general policy onborrowing costs (see below).
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
13 C R O AT I A A I R L I N E S A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 0 6
h) Foreign currencies
Transactions in currencies other than Croatian Kuna, except as described in the chapterFinancial statement in euro, are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates ofthe transactions. At each balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities that aredenominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the balance sheetdate. Non-monetary assets and liabilities carried at fair value that are denominated in foreigncurrencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined.Gains and losses arising on exchange are included in net profit or loss for the period, exceptfor exchange differences arising on non-monetary assets and liabilities where the changes infair value are recognised directly to equity.
i) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifyingassets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for theirintended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets aresubstantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporaryinvestment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deductedfrom the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in net profit or loss in the period in which they areincurred.
j) Government grants
Government grants towards development costs are recognised as income over the periodsnecessary to match them with the related costs and are deducted in reporting the relatedexpense.
Government grants received in the form of direct financial support to the Company withoutany additional costs related thereto, are recognised in the income statement for the period inwhich they are obtained.
k) Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from netprofit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income or expensethat are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxableor deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have beenenacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between thecarrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding taxbasis used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheetliability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporarydifferences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxableprofits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
l) Tangible fixed assets
Fixed assets, except for aircraft and spare engines, are stated at cost less accumulateddepreciation and any recognised impairment loss.
14 C R O AT I A A I R L I N E S A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 0 6
Costs incurred in replacing major portions of the Group’s facilities that increase their productivecapacity or substantially extend their useful life are capitalised.
An element of the cost of aircraft relates to regular maintenance checks. These costs aredepreciated over the period from the purchase of the aircraft. Future periodic checks will becapitalised at the time of expenditure and amortised to the next check.
Rotatable spare parts are allocated to the type of aircraft concerned and depreciated overtheir estimated useful life.
In connection with the acquisition of certain aircraft and engines, the Company received certaindiscounts. These discounts are deducted from the cost of the aircraft or are deferred andcredited to the statement of profit and loss on a proportional basis over the operational life ofthe aircraft, depending on the nature of the discounts .
Included in the cost of aircraft is the residual value for each type of aircraft. Depreciation ischarged on a straight-line basis from the first day of the next month after the tangible asset isput in use. Equipment with a useful life over one year and individual cost value over 2 thousandHRK are recorded as assets. Power generating equipment and equipment of low value usedin operating activities is recorded as tangible assets no matter what its cost.
The Company engaged the Croatian Society of Professional Valuators, which at 31 December2001 performed qualified and independent valuation of aircrafts and spare engines using themarket method. The valuation effects are credited and charged to revaluation reserve.
The difference between net book value of assets that were sold or otherwise disposed of andthe amount realised from selling was recognised as net value directly to other revenue or othercosts (gain/loss from sold assets).
The costs of the ATR 42 aircraft are depreciated on a straight-line basis over a period of 20years with no residual value. Airbus aircraft are depreciated on a straight-line basis over aperiod of 20 years (except for the second-hand Airbus 320 which is depreciated over a periodof 12 years) after making allowance for their estimated residual value. The cost of 12-yearchecks are at a rate of 8.33%, and 6-year checks are at a rate of 16.67%.
The Airbus and ATR 42 spare parts are stated at cost and depreciated over the estimateduseful life of the aircraft to which they refer (20 years). Ground Service Equipment (“GSE”) andtools are stated at cost and depreciated over 16,6 years.
Buildings are depreciated over their estimated useful life of 40 years, and other assets overtheir useful life, which ranges from 4 - 10 years.
m) Intangible fixed assets
Included in intangible assets is software, which is measured initially at purchase cost and isamortised on a straight-line basis over is estimated useful life, which is two years.
n) Investments in subsidiary and associated companies
Subsidiaries are those companies in which the Company has control. Control is achievedwhere the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an investeeenterprise so as to obtain benefits from its activities. An associate is an enterprise over whichthe Group is in a position to exercise significant influence, but not control, through participationin the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee.
The results, assets and liabilities of subsidiaries and associated companies are presented inthese separate financial statements under the cost method and have been consolidated orpresented under the equity method of accounting in the Group statements.
15 C R O AT I A A I R L I N E S A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 0 6
o) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises directmaterials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and overheads that have been incurred inbringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is calculated using theweighted average method. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less allestimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.
p) Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Group’s balance sheet when theGroup becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Derivative contracts initially are recognised on cost value, and subsequently on fair value. Onthe contractual date the Group classifies derivatives as:
1) hedging of fair value of recognised assets or liabilities (fair value hedge)
2) hedging of forecast transaction or firm commitment (cash flow hedge)
Changes in fair value of derivatives that are designated and classified as hedging and that aredetermined to be an effective hedge are recognised in the profit and loss account togetherwith all changes in fair value of assets or liabilities that are hedged items. Gain or loss fromderivative financial instruments that are used as hedging instruments are recognised withregard to the nature of the hedged item.
Derivatives that are not hedging instruments are considered as trading instruments. Presently,the Group policy does not allow holding of trading instruments.
q) Accounts receivable
Trade receivables are stated at their nominal value as reduced by appropriate allowances forestimated irrecoverable amounts.
r) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash inhand, current accounts at banks deposits up to ninety days.
s) Available for sale investments
Available-for-sale investments are recognised at trade date and initially stated at cost, includingtransaction costs. The results, assets and liabilities in respect of available-for-sale assets arestated at cost. Investment income is included in the income statement after the date ofacquisition and only to the extent of receipts of the investor based on distribution of accumulatednet profits of the investee. Available-for-sale investments have not been valued at fair value.
t) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables originated by the Group are stated at amortised cost less provision forimpairment, if any related value adjustments are recognised in the income statement. Fairvalue of loans and receivables originated by the Group approximates to their carrying amountsbecause they are short-term in nature. Therefore, the Management Board of the Companybelieves that the carrying amounts of loans and receivables approximate to their fair values.
u) Long-term borrowings
Long-term borrowings are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Financecharges are accounted for on an accrual basis and added to the carrying amount of theinstrument to the extent that they are not settled in the period in which they arise.
16 C R O AT I A A I R L I N E S A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 0 6
v) Accounts payable
Trade payables are stated at their nominal value.
w) Hedging and translation reserves
Loans and finance leases for the purchase of aircraft are denominated in foreign currenciesand as such the Company is exposed to the risk of fluctuations in exchange rates. The Companyhas evaluated its foreign currency revenues and determined that foreign currency revenuesform a highly effective cash flow hedge against its principal and interest payments in foreigncurrency. Accordingly the Company accounts for unrealised gains and losses on translation ofthe designated foreign currency debts as a separate component of equity. The effectivenessof the hedge is monitored by management on a regular basis throughout the period.
Hedging reserves related to the unpaid portion of long-term financial liabilities are treated ashedging only in an amount relating to payment obligation due within the next 3 years. At thesame time foreign exchange differences from the unpaid portion of principal are directlyrecognised in the profit and loss account for the period.
x) Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the International Reporting FinancialStandards, as published by the International Accounting Standards Board, requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,liabilities, income and expenses and disclosure of contingencies. The significant areas ofestimation used in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements relate to provisionsfor receivables.
Future events may occur which will cause the assumptions used in arriving at the estimates tochange. The effect of any changes in estimates will be recorded in the financial statements,when determinable.
Financial Statements in EUR
Croatian Law only permits the presentation of the primary financial statements in CroatianKuna. Due to the adoption of the Euro, most European airline companies are now reporting inEuro. Accordingly, the Board of the Company decided in 2003 to change its second reportingcurrency from American dollars (USD) into Euro (EUR). Thus the balance sheets, incomestatements, statements of changes in equity and of changes in cash flows set out below aredenominated in EUR.
