Basis of Preparation

Note 2. Basis of Preparation

2.1 Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards — IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”). They do not include all the information required for a complete set of IFRS financial statements. Selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of FEMSA since our last audited annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2019, as well as the condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, cash flows and changes in equity for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and their related disclosures included in these notes, are unaudited.

This is the first set of the Company’s financial statements in which IFRS 16 has been applied. Changes to significant accounting policies are describe in Note 4.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes were approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on July 24, 2019; and were issued for incorporation on Form 6-K on September 26, 2019 and subsequent events have been considered through that date (see Note 25).

2.2 Basis of measurement and presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis, except for the following:

•

Derivative financial instruments.

•

Long-term notes payable on which fair value hedge accounting is applied.

•

Trust assets of post-employment and other long-term employee benefit plans.

The carrying values of assets and liabilities designated as hedged items in fair value hedges that would otherwise be carried at amortized cost are adjusted to record changes in the fair values attributable to the risks that are being hedged in effective hedge relationship.

The financial statements of subsidiaries whose functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy are restated in terms of the measuring unit at the end of the reporting period.

2.2.1 Presentation of consolidated income statement

The Company’s consolidated income statement classifies its related costs and expenses by function accordingly within the industry practices in which the Company operates.

2.2.2 Presentation of consolidated statements of cash flows

The Company’s consolidated statement of cash flows is presented using the indirect method.

2.2.3 Convenience translation to U.S. dollars ($)

The consolidated financial statements are stated in millions of Mexican pesos (“Ps.”) and rounded to the nearest million unless stated otherwise. However, solely for the convenience of the readers, the consolidated statement of financial position, as of June 30, 2019 the consolidated income statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and consolidated statement of cash flows for the six-month period year ended June 30, 2019 were converted into U.S. dollars at closing exchange rate of 19.2089 Mexican pesos per U.S. dollar as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as of June 30, 2019. This arithmetic conversion should not be construed as representation that amounts expressed in Mexican pesos may be converted into U.S. dollars at that or any other exchange rate.

As explained in Note 2.1 above, as of September 26, 2019 (the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements) the exchange rate was Ps. 19.4587 per U.S. dollar, a devaluation of 1% since June 30, 2019.

2.3 Critical accounting judgments and estimates

For the application of the Company’s accounting policies, as described in Note 3, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if it affects only such period or in the current or subsequent periods of the revision if this affects both. In the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements most significant effects are included on consolidated financial statements.

Critical accounting judgments and estimates applied to these condensed consolidated interim financial statement as of June 30, 2019 are the same as those mentioned in our last audited annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018, except for leases.

Leases

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Company´s 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.

Information on assumptions and estimates that have a significant risk of resulting in an adjustment to the carrying value of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, and related statement of income accounts, include the following:

•

If the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend a lease agreement or not to exercise an option to terminate a lease agreement before its termination date, considering all the facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive for the Company to exercise, or not, such options, taking into account whether the lease option is enforceable, when the Company has the unilateral right to apply the option in question.

•

Determination of the non-cancellable period for evergreen contracts and lifelong leases, considering whether the Company is reasonably certain to terminate the lease and/or estimating a reasonable period for the use of the asset, based on significant leasehold improvements made on the leased properties that provide reasonable certainty to the Company about the remaining period to obtain the benefits of such improvements on leased properties.

2.4 Application of recently issued accounting standards

The Company has applied the following amendments to IFRS during 2019:

2.4.1 IFRS 16 Leases

IFRS 16 supersedes International Accounting Standard (IAS) 17, Leases, International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (IFRIC) 4, Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease, Standard Interpretation Committee (SIC) 15, Operating Leases-Incentives and SIC 27, Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease. The standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires lessees to account for most leases under a single on-balance sheet model, recognizing a right-of-use asset reflecting its right to use the underlying asset and a related lease liability for its obligation to make lease payments during the lease term. The Company has modified its accounting policy for lease contracts as a result of the standard adoption, acting only as a lessee, as detailed in Note 3.

Lessor accounting under IFRS 16 is substantially unchanged from IAS 17. Lessors will continue to classify leases as either operating or finance leases using similar principles as in IAS 17. Therefore, IFRS 16 did not have an impact for leases where the Group is the lessor.

The Company applied the modified retrospective approach, under which, the cumulative effect of initial application is recognized in retained earnings as from January 1st, 2019. The main changes on leases accounting policy is disclosed below.

•

Definition of a lease

Previously, the Company had determined at each contract inception whether an arrangement is or contains a lease under “IAS 17 – Leases” and “IFRIC 4 – Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease”. Under IFRS 16, the Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease based on the definition of a lease, as explained in Note 3.

The Company elected to apply the transition practical expedient known as “Grandfather” which allows at the date of initial application to consider as a lease only those contracts previously identified as such in accordance with IAS 17 and IFRIC 4. Therefore, the definition of a lease under IFRS 16 applies only to those contracts entered into or modified on or after January 1st, 2019. The Company excludes all lease contracts with: (1) a remaining maturity of twelve months or less and, (ii) those leases with an underlying low value assets in absolute terms, considering at maximum amount that equals to $5,000 or its equivalent in other currencies.

•

Accounting as a lessee

As a lessee, the Company previously classified twelve month leases as either operating or finance leases based on its assessment of whether substantially all the rights and risk incidental to ownership of an asset are transferred from the lessor to the lessee. Under IFRS 16, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all lease arrangements, excluding those that are considered as exceptions by the standard.

At transition date, the Company recognized a lease liability measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments during the non-cancellable period, discounted at the incremental borrowing rate of the Company as of January 1st, 2019. Right-of-use asset is measured at an amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments.

The following practical expedients permitted by IFRS 16 were applied to lease contracts previously accounted for as operating leases under IAS 17 at the transition date only:

•

A single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics.

•

Not to recognize right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases with less than twelve months of lease term and leases of low-value items.

•

Exclude initial direct costs from measuring the right-of-use asset.

•

Use hindsight information when determining the lease term if the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.

The main effects in the relevant line items of FEMSA’s statement of financial position are disclose in the Note 12 to these Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Measuring lease liabilities for leases that were classified as operating leases, the following is a reconciliation of the discounted amounts of the operating lease commitments as of December 31, 2018 to the lease liability recognized upon adoption of IFRS 16:


	As of January 1, 2019
Operating lease commitments as of December 31, 2018	Ps.	50,546
Less: Commitments relating to short-term leases and low-value assets		699
Add: Commitments relating to leases previously classified as finance leases		373

Lease liabilities at the beginning of the period	Ps.	50,220

2.4.2 IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over income tax treatments

The Interpretation addresses the accounting for income taxes when tax treatments involve uncertainty that affects the application of IAS 12 and does not apply to taxes or levies outside the scope of IAS 12, nor does it specifically include requirements relating to interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax treatments. The Interpretation specifically addresses the following:

Whether an entity considers uncertain tax treatments separately,

The assumptions an entity makes about the examination of tax treatments by taxation authorities,

How an entity determines taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates, and:

How an entity considers changes in facts and circumstances.

An entity must determine whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain tax treatments. The approach that better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty should be followed. The interpretation is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1st, 2019 and has been adopted in the preparing these Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company has performed a qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the potential impacts that will occur in the consolidated financial statements derived from IFRIC 23 adoption. Such evaluation includes the following the activities described below:

Review of the Company’s policies through which tax treatments are revised and accounted, this includes evidence from business units delivered to external auditors.

ii)

Analysis of the tax memorandums prepared by the external tax advisor which support Company’s tax treatment over an uncertain tax position about a) how tax earnings (losses) are calculated, b) tax basis or losses are applied, c) tax credits not applied, and d) how tax rates in different jurisdictions are considered.

iii)

Documentation of the tax correspondence received in the Company’s business units by email and postal service in order to analyze any recent resolution adopted from the tax authority regarding tax positions,

iv)

Analysis of the tax position report of the Company on a monthly basis.

The Company concluded that there were no significant impacts on the consolidated financial statements derived from the adoption of the IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatment. However, IFRIC 23 provides requirements that add to the requirements in IAS 12 Income taxes by specifying how to reflect the effects of uncertainty in accounting for income taxes, this will help the Company to strength the corporate policy in this matter.

Mergers, Acquisitions and Disposals 4.1 Other mergers and acquisitions The Company has consummated certain mergers and acquisitions during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018; which were recorded using the acquisition method of accounting. The results of operations from these business combinations have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements since the date on which the Company obtained control of the business, as disclosed below. Therefore, the condensed consolidated income statements and the condensed consolidated statements of financial position in the period of such acquisitions are not comparable with previous periods.

Note 16. Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are based on level 2 applying the income approach method, which estimates the fair value based on expected cash flows discounted to net present value. The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value, as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:


	June 30, 2019				December 31, 2018
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 1		Level 2
Derivative financial instrument (current asset)		27		770		—		735
Derivative financial instrument (non-current asset)		—		9,807		—		10,752
Derivative financial instrument (current liability)		201		352		236		147
Derivative financial instrument (non-current liability)		—		2,243		—		1,262

16.1 Total debt

The fair value of bank loans is calculated based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows whereby the discount rate is estimated using rates currently offered for debt of similar amounts and maturities, which is considered to be level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s publicly traded debt is based on quoted market prices as of of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, which is considered to be level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Carrying value	Ps.	123,260	Ps.	128,664
Fair value		128,757		128,741

16.2 Interest rate swaps

The Company uses interest rate swaps to offset the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings, pursuant to which it pays amounts based on a fixed rate and receives amounts based on a floating rate. These instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges and are recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position at their estimated fair value. The fair value is estimated using formal technical models. The valuation method involves discounting to present value the expected cash flows of interest, calculated from the rate curve of the cash flow currency, and expresses the net result in the reporting currency. Changes in fair value are recorded in cumulative other comprehensive income, net of taxes until such time as the hedged amount is recorded in the consolidated income statements.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company has the following outstanding interest rate swap agreements:


Maturity Date	Notional Amount		Fair Value Liability June 30, 2019			Fair Value Asset June 30, 2019
2019		Ps. 3,908	Ps.	(31	)		Ps.—

2023		13,101		(49	)		1,143

The net effect of expired contracts treated as hedges are recognized as interest expense within the consolidated income statements.

16.3 Forward agreements to purchase foreign currency

The Company has entered into forward agreements to reduce its exposure to the risk of exchange rate fluctuations between the Mexican peso and other currencies. Foreign exchange forward contracts measured at fair value are designated hedging instruments in cash flow hedges of forecast inflows in Euros and forecast purchases of raw materials in U.S. dollars. These forecast transactions are highly probable.

These instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges and are recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of financial position at their estimated fair value which is determined based on prevailing market exchange rates to terminate the contracts at the end of the period. The price agreed in the instrument is compared to the current price of the market forward currency and is discounted to present value of the rate curve of the relevant currency. Changes in the fair value of these forwards are recorded as part of cumulative other comprehensive income, net of taxes. Net gain/loss on expired contracts is recognized as part of cost of goods sold when the raw material is included in sale transaction, and as a part of foreign exchange when the inflow in Euros are received.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had the following outstanding forward agreements to purchase foreign currency:


Maturity Date	Notional Amount		Fair Value Liability June 30, 2019			Fair Value Asset June 30, 2019

16.4 Options to purchase foreign currency

The Company has executed call option and collar strategies to reduce its exposure to the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. A call option is an instrument that limits the loss in case of foreign currency depreciation. A collar is a strategy that combines call and put options, limiting the exposure to the risk of exchange rate fluctuations in a similar way as a forward agreement.

These instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges and are recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of financial position at their estimated fair value which is determined based on prevailing market exchange rates to terminate the contracts at the end of the period. Changes in the fair value of these options, corresponding to the intrinsic value, are initially recorded as part of “cumulative other comprehensive income”. Changes in the fair value, corresponding to the extrinsic value, are recorded in the condensed consolidated income statements under the caption “market value gain/ (loss) on financial instruments,” as part of the consolidated net income. Net gain/(loss) on expired contracts including the net premium paid, is recognized as part of cost of goods sold when the hedged item is recorded in the consolidated income statements.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company paid a net premium of Ps. 23 million for the following outstanding collar options to purchase foreign currency:

16.5 Cross-currency swaps

The Company has contracted for a number of cross-currency swaps to reduce its exposure to risks of exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations associated with its borrowings denominated in U.S. dollars and other foreign currencies. Cross-Currency swaps contracts are designated as hedging instruments through which the Company changes the debt profile to its functional currency to reduce exchange exposure.

These instruments are recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position at their estimated fair value which is estimated using formal technical models. The valuation method involves discounting to present value the expected cash flows of interest, calculated from the rate curve of the cash foreign currency, and expresses the net result in the reporting currency. These contracts are designated as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss. The fair values changes related to those cross-currency swaps are recorded under the caption “market value gain (loss) on financial instruments,” net of changes related to the long-term liability, within the condensed consolidated income statements.

The Company has cross-currency contracts designated as cash flow hedges and are recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of financial position at their estimated fair value. Changes in fair value are recorded in cumulative other comprehensive income, net of taxes until such time as the hedge amount is recorded in the consolidated income statement.

At June 30, 2019, the Company had the following outstanding cross – currency swap agreements:

As a result, the principal amount under the promissory note may be increased or reduced based on the depreciation or appreciation of the Brazilian real relative to the U.S. dollar. The holders of the promissory note have an option, that may be exercised prior to the scheduled maturity of the promissory note, to capitalize the Mexican peso amount equivalent to the amount payable under the promissory note into a recently incorporated Mexican company which would then be merged into the Coca-Cola FEMSA in exchange for Series L shares at a strike price of Ps. 178.5 per share. Such capitalization and issuance of new Series L shares is subject to Coca-Cola FEMSA having a sufficient number of Series L shares available for issuance.

Coca-Cola FEMSA uses Black & Scholes valuation technique to measure the call option at fair value. The call option had an estimated fair value of Ps. 343 million at inception of the option and Ps. 14 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The estimated fair value as of December 31, 2018 was barely close to zero. The option is recorded as part of the Promissory Note disclosed in Note 18.

Coca-Cola FEMSA estimates that the call option is “out of the money” as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 by approximately 49.9%% and 49.8% or U.S. $81 million and U.S. $111 million with respect to the strike price.

Income Taxes

Note 20. Income Taxes

On January 1st, 2019, the Mexican government eliminated the right to offset any tax credit against any payable tax (general offset or compensación universal). As of such date, the right to offset any tax credit will be against taxes of the same nature and payable by the same person (not being able to offset tax credits against taxes payable by third parties).

On January 1st, 2019, a new tax reform became effective in Colombia. This reform reduced the income tax rate from 33.0% to 32.0% for 2020, to 31.0% for 2021 and to 30.0% for 2022. The minimum assumed income tax (renta presuntiva sobre el patrimonio) was also reduced from 3.5% to 1.5% for 2019 and 2020, and to null for 2021. In addition, the capitalization ratio was adjusted from 3:1 to 2:1 for operations with related parties only. For the companies located in the free trade zone, the value-added tax will be calculated based on the cost of production instead of the cost of the imported raw materials (therefore, we will be able to credit the value added-tax on goods and services against the value added-tax on the sales price of our products). The municipality sales tax will be 50.0% credited against payable income tax for 2019 and 100.0% credited for 2020. Finally, the value-added tax paid on acquired fixed assets will be credited against income tax or the minimum assumed income tax.

The Tax Reform increases the dividend tax on distributions to foreign nonresidents entities and individuals from 5% to 7.5%. In addition, the tax reform establishes a 7.5% dividend tax on distributions between Colombian companies. The tax will be charged only on the first distribution of dividends between Colombian entities and may be credited against the dividend tax due once the ultimate Colombian company makes a distribution to its shareholders nonresident shareholders (individuals or entities) or to Colombian individual residents.

On January 1st, 2019 a tax reform became effective in Costa Rica. This reform will allow that tax on sales not only be applied to the first sale, but also to be applied and transferred at each sale; therefore, the tax credits on tax on sales will be recorded not only on goods related to production and on administrative services, but on a greater number of goods and services. Value-added tax on services provided within Costa Rica will be charged at tax rate of 13.0% if provided by local suppliers or withheld at the same rate if provided by foreign suppliers. Although a territorial principle is still applicable in Costa Rica for operations abroad, a tax rate of 15.0% has been imposed on capital gains from the sale of assets located in Costa Rica. New income tax withholding rates were imposed on salaries and compensations of employees, at the rates of 15% to 25% (which will be applicable depending on the employee’s salary), respectively. Finally, the thin capitalization rules were adjusted to provide that the interest expenses (generated with non-members of the financial system) that exceed 20.0% of the company’s EBITDA will not be deductible for tax purposes.

On January 1st, 2018, a tax reform became effective in Argentina. This reform reduced the income tax rate from 35.0% to 30.0% for 2018 and 2019, and then to 25.0% for the following years. In addition, such reform imposed a new tax on dividends paid to nonresident stockholders and resident individuals at a rate of 7.0% for 2018 and 2019, and then to 13.0% for the following years. For sales taxes in the province of Buenos Aires, the tax rate decreased from 1.75% to 1.5% in 2018; however, in the City of Buenos Aires, the tax rate increased from 1.0% to 2.0% in 2018, and will be reduced to 1.5% in 2019, 1.0% in 2020, 0.5% in 2021 and null in 2022.

In addition, the excise tax on concentrate in Brazil was reduced from 20.0% to 4.0% from September 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018. Temporarily the excise tax rate on concentrate increased from 4.0% to 12.0% from January 1st, 2019 to June 30, 2019, then it will be reduced to 8.0% from July 1, 2019 to January 1st, 2020. On January 1st, 2020 the excise tax rate will be reduced back to 4.0%.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the major components of income tax expense are:


	June 30, 2019			June 30 ,2018
Current tax expense	Ps.	5,059		Ps.	5,159
Deferred tax expense:		(950	)		(338	)

Other Liabilities, Provisions and Contingencies

Note 21. Other Liabilities, Provisions and Contingencies

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, Company’s provisions, other non-current liabilities and other current and non-current financial liabilities are Ps. 32,676 and Ps. 22,693, respectively.

In respect to contingencies, the Company has various loss contingencies and has recorded reserves as other liabilities for those legal proceedings for which it believes an unfavorable resolution is probable. Most of these contingencies are the result of the Company’s business acquisitions. The following table presents the nature and amount of the contingencies recorded as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:


	June 30, 2019		December 31,2018
Indirect taxes	Ps.	5,403	Ps.	5,421
Labor		1,192		2,601
Legal		3,161		1,906

Total	Ps.	9,756	Ps.	9,928

While provision for all claims has already been made, the actual outcome of the disputes and the timing of the resolution cannot be estimated by the Company at this time.

The Company has entered into several proceedings with its labor unions, tax authorities and other parties that primarily involve Coca-Cola FEMSA and its subsidiaries. These proceedings have resulted in the ordinary course of business and are common to the industry in which the Company operates. The aggregate amount being claimed against the Company resulting from such proceedings as of June 30, 2019 is Ps. 54,590. Such contingencies were classified by legal counsel as less than probable but more than remote of being settled against the Company. However, the Company believes that the ultimate resolution of such several proceedings will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or result of operations.

Included in this amount Coca-Cola FEMSA has tax contingencies, most of which are related to its Brazilian operations, amounting to approximately Ps. 52,371, with loss expectations assessed by management and supported by the analysis of legal counsel consider as possible. Among these possible contingencies, are Ps. 10,399 in various tax disputes related primarily to credits for ICMS (“VAT”) and Ps. 34,977 related to tax credits of “IPI” over raw materials acquired from Free Trade Zone Manaus. Possible claims also include Ps. 3,671 related to compensation of federal taxes not approved by the IRS (Tax authorities) and Ps. 3,324 related to the requirement by the Tax Authorities of State of São Paulo for ICMS (“VAT”), interest and penalty due to the alleged underpayment of tax arrears for the period 1994-1996. Coca-Cola FEMSA is defending its position in these matters and final decision is pending in court. In addition, the Company has Ps. 9,531 in unsettled indirect tax contingencies regarding indemnification accorded with Heineken Group over FEMSA Cerveza. These matters are related to different Brazilian federal taxes which are pending final decision.

In recent years in its Mexican and Brazilian territories, Coca-Cola FEMSA has been requested to present certain information regarding possible monopolistic practices. These requests are commonly generated in the ordinary course of business in the soft drink industry where this subsidiary operates. The Company does not expect any material liability to arise from these contingencies.

As is customary in Brazil, Coca-Cola FEMSA has been required by the tax authorities there to collateralize tax contingencies currently in litigation amounting to Ps. 9,531 and Ps. 7,739, as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, by pledging fixed assets and entering into available lines of credit covering the contingencies.

Explanation of the Seasonality or Cyclical Nature of Intermediate Operations	Note 22. Explanation of the seasonality or cyclical nature of intermediate operations The Company’s operation results are subject to seasonality. In general, business units net sales increases during summer and winter seassons during holidays. In Mexico, Central America and Colombia, the Company reaches highest’s net sales levels during summer from April to August, as well as in December due to holidays. In Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina, highest’s net sales levels occur during summer from October to March and in December. In Chile, highest’s net sales are in December, in contrast to January and February, in which net sales decrease due to holidays. Our operational results reflects seasonality, but includes also, among others, economic conditions and weather. Due to above mentioned, the Company’ quaterly operation results can be neither consider as an isolate indicator of the full year results nor historical operation results as an isolate indicator of the forecast results. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, there are not significant impacts on the Company’s operations results due to seasonality.

Disclosure of detailed information about financial instruments [line items]

The amount of liabilities that are: (a) a contractual obligation: (i) to deliver cash or another financial asset to another entity; or (ii) to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another entity under conditions that are potentially unfavourable to the entity; or (b) a contract that will, or may be, settled in the entity’s own equity instruments and is: (i) a non-derivative for which the entity is, or may be, obliged to deliver a variable number of the entity’s own equity instruments; or (ii) a derivative that will, or may be, settled other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments. For this purpose, rights, options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency are equity instruments if the entity offers the rights, options or warrants pro rata to all of its existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments. Also, for those purposes the entity’s own equity instruments do not include puttable financial instruments that are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16A-16B of IAS 32, instruments that impose on the entity an obligation to deliver to another party a pro rata share of the net assets of the entity only on liquidation and are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32, or instruments that are contracts for the future receipt or delivery of the entity’s own equity instruments. As an exception, an instrument that meets the definition of a financial liability is classified as an equity instrument if it has all the features and meets the conditions in paragraphs 16A-16B or paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32.
