based on the medium term business plans of the Group companies prepared by management and
extrapolated results thereafter.
Management considered the recoverability of recognised deferred tax assets, including those on tax losses
carried forward, as probable (Note 16).
Useful life of property, plant and equipment. The estimation of the useful life of an item of property, plant
and equipment is a matter of management judgment based upon experience with similar assets and other
factors. In determining the useful life of an asset, management considers the expected usage, estimated
technical obsolescence, physical wear and tear, warranty terms as well as the environment in which the
asset is operated. Changes in any of these conditions or estimates may result in adjustments for future
depreciation rates which can affect the reported income.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year data to conform to the current year presentation.
These reclassifications are not material.
Adoption of New or Revised Standards and Interpretations
The following new standards and interpretations became effective from 1 January 2015 but did not have any
material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements:
Amendments to IAS 19 – “Defined benefit plans: Employee contributions” (issued in November 2013
and effective for annual periods beginning 1 July 2014).
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012 (issued in December 2013 and effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 July 2014).
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2013 (issued in December 2013 and effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 July 2014).
Note 3.
New accounting pronouncements
Certain new standards and interpretations have been issued that are mandatory for the annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2016 or later, and which the Group has not early adopted. These standards
and interpretations have been approved for adoption in the Russian Federation unless noted otherwise.
IFRS 9, Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement (amended in July 2014 and effective for
annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018). Key features of the new standard are:
Financial assets are required to be classified into three measurement categories: those to be
measured subsequently at amortised cost, those to be measured subsequently at fair value through
other comprehensive income (FVOCI) and those to be measured subsequently at fair value through
profit or loss (FVPL).
Classification for debt instruments is driven by the entity’s business model for managing the financial
assets and whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest
(SPPI). If a debt instrument is held to collect, it may be carried at amortised cost if it also meets the
SPPI requirement. Debt instruments that meet the SPPI requirement that are held in a portfolio
where an entity both holds to collect assets’ cash flows and sells assets may be classified as FVOCI.
Financial assets that do not contain cash flows that are SPPI must be measured at FVPL (for
example, derivatives). Embedded derivatives are no longer separated from financial assets but will
be included in assessing the SPPI condition.
Investments in equity instruments are always measured at fair value. However, management can
make an irrevocable election to present changes in fair value in other comprehensive income,
provided the instrument is not held for trading. If the equity instrument is held for trading, changes in
fair value are presented in profit or loss.
Most of the requirements in IAS 39 for classification and measurement of financial liabilities were
carried forward unchanged to IFRS 9. The key change is that an entity will be required to present the
effects of changes in own credit risk of financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or
loss in other comprehensive income.

IFRS 9 introduces a new model for the recognition of impairment losses – the expected credit losses
(ECL) model. There is a”‘three stage” approach which is based on the change in credit quality of
financial assets since initial recognition. In practice, the new rules mean that entities will have to
record an immediate loss equal to the 12-month ECL on initial recognition of financial assets that are
not credit impaired (or lifetime ECL for trade receivables). Where there has been a significant
increase in credit risk, impairment is measured using lifetime ECL rather than 12-month ECL. The
model includes operational simplifications for lease and trade receivables.
Hedge accounting requirements were amended to align accounting more closely with risk
management. The standard provides entities with an accounting policy choice between applying the
hedge accounting requirements of IFRS 9 and continuing to apply IAS 39 to all hedges because the
standard currently does not address accounting for macro hedging.
The Group is currently assessing the impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (issued in May 2014 and effective for the periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2018). The new standard introduces the core principle that revenue must be
recognised when the goods or services are transferred to the customer, at the transaction price. Any bundled
goods or services that are distinct must be separately recognised, and any discounts or rebates on the
contract price must generally be allocated to the separate elements. When the consideration varies for any
reason, minimum amounts must be recognised if they are not at significant risk of reversal. Costs incurred to
secure contracts with customers have to be capitalised and amortised over the period when the benefits of
the contract are consumed. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the new standard on its financial
statements.
IFRS 16, Leases (issued in January 2016 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January
2019; this standard has not been approved for adoption in the Russian Federation). The new standard sets
out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. All leases result in
the lessee obtaining the right to use an asset at the start of the lease and, if lease payments are made over
time, also obtaining financing. Accordingly, IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases as either operating
leases or finance leases as is required by IAS 17 and, instead, introduces a single lessee accounting model.
Lessees will be required to recognise: (a) assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12
months, unless the underlying asset is of low value; and (b) depreciation of lease assets separately from
interest on lease liabilities in the income statement. IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor
accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases
or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently. The Group is currently assessing
the impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements.
The following other new pronouncements are not expected to have any material impact on the Group when
adopted:
Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations - Amendments to IFRS 11 (issued in May
2014 and effective for the periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016).
Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation - Amendments to IAS 16 and
IAS 38 (issued in May 2014 and effective for the periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016).

Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 (issued in September 2014 and effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2016; these amendments have not been approved for adoption in
the Russian Federation).
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014 (issued in September 2014 and effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2016).
Disclosure Initiative Amendments to IAS 1 (issued in December 2014 and effective for annual
periods on or after 1 January 2016).
Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses - Amendments to IAS 12 (issued in
January 2016 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017; these
amendments have not been approved for adoption in the Russian Federation).
