Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of preparation

Our interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited. In the opinion of Group management, the financial statements include all known adjustments (which consist primarily of normal, recurring accruals, estimates and assumptions that impact the financial statements) necessary to present fairly the financial position at the balance sheet dates and the results of operations for the nine-month period then ended. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2013, presented herein, has been derived from our audited balance sheet included in our Group Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, but does not include all disclosures required by IFRS. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group consolidated financial statements and the related notes at December 31, 2013, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The designation “IFRS” also includes all valid International Accounting Standards (“IAS”), as well as all interpretations of the IFRS Interpretation Committee, previously known as the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”), and before that the Standing Interpretations Committee (“SIC”). The results of operations for the nine-months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year.

All Group companies are consolidated on a line-by-line basis.

At September 30, 2014, there were no changes to the scope of consolidation or to the percentage interests held in subsidiaries at December 31, 2013.

Going Concern

As disclosed in the Group Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2013, in 2014, Management finalized an operation (the “Operation”) intended to restructure the financial indebtedness of the Group and restore the equity level. The Operation was to be implemented in accordance with Article 182 bis of the Bankruptcy Act and finalized on July 2014.

The main terms of the Operation have been included in Commitment Letters signed by Columna and Manitex, as well as in the PM Group and Oil & Steel Debt Restructuring Agreement signed by the creditor banks (collectively the “Agreement”). On November 18, 2014, the Courts in Modena approved the Agreement.

On January 15, 2015 Manitex completed the acquisition of PM Group and made a capital contribution of Euro 44.5 million in accordance with the terms of the Operation. On January 15, 2015, the sale of Pilosio was completed.

In view of the expected impact of the Operation and taking into account the difficult conditions in some of its main markets, the Group has prepared a new Business Plan for the period 2014 – 2017, which was approved by the holding company Board of Directors on June 10, 2014. The new Business Plan forecasts sufficient cash flows to meet the Group’s remaining obligations following the completion of the Operation.

After having evaluated the uncertainty regarding the economic environment, and the resulting uncertainty which inevitably affects the forecasts reflected in the Business Plan in relation to the Group’s future operating performance (in terms of both revenue and profitability), given the progress of the Operation, Management considers it probable that the Group’s economics and financial situation will be improved. For these reasons, Management reasonably believes that the Group has sufficient resources to continue to operate in the near future and, therefore, have prepared these condensed consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis.

The mortgage refers to the Oil & Steel S.p.A. factory located in S. Cesario sul Panaro (MO). The pledge refers to the 100% Oil & Steel S.p.A. and Pilosio S.p.A. shares, held by PM Group S.p.A.

The fair value of the current portion of loans payable is assumed to be equal to Euro 40,420 thousand plus 860 thousand of Manitex shares. The fair value was determined to be the residual value of current portion of loans payable at September 30, 2014 (Euro 78,997 thousand) resulting from the restructuring of the financial indebtedness of the Group upon completion of the Operation. Please refer to the note related to the going concern assumption for more details on terms of the Operation.

Note 27—Fair Value measurement

IFRS 13 establishes a fair value hierarchy which classifies on three levels the inputs of the valuation techniques adopted to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives highest priority to the quoted prices (unadjusted) on active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). In some cases, the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or liability could be classified on several levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the fair value measurement is classified entirely on the same hierarchy level where the lowest level input that has a significant impact o the valuation.

The levels used in the hierarchy are:

 

    Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) on active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

 

    Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly;

 

    Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The following table shows the fair value hierarchy of Assets and Liabilities measured at fair value at September 30, 2014:

Liabilities for derivative financial instruments did not change fair value hierarchy between December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2014.

The fair value of Liabilities for derivative financial Instruments is included in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and has been estimated with discounted cash flows models. The main inputs used are forward interest rates (from observable yield curves at the end of the reporting period), and contract interest rates, discounted at a rate that reflects the credit risk of various counterparties.

At December 31, 2013 assets and liabilities held for sale, related to the Business Unit Pilosio, were valued at fair value and disclosed in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. At September 30, 2014 assets and liabilities held for sale are no longer valued at fair value because at that date, as consequence of the loss incurred by Pilosio during the first nine month of 2014, their carrying amounts are lower of their fair value less costs to sell.

For financial instruments represented by short-term receivables, payables, and financial payables for which the present value of future cash flows does not differ significantly from carrying value, the carrying value is a reasonable approximation of the fair value. In particular, the carrying amount of Current receivables, Other current assets, Trade payables and Other current liabilities, approximates their fair value. The fair value of the financial payables has been disclosed in Note 12.

For other Statement of Financial Position items the carrying amount represents a reasonable approximation of fair value at September 30, 2014.
