c) Authorisation of Financial Statements
The financial statements were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the board of directors dated of 9 March, 2007.
d) Currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of euros and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand (€ 000) except where otherwise indicated.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(i) Overall Policy
The principal accounting policies adopted by CHIPIDEA comprising the parent entity and its subsidiaries are stated in order to assist in a general understanding of the financial statements.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). IFRS include International Accounting Standards (IAS) and interpretations issued by the IASB – International Accounting Standards Board.
The financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, and present fairly the entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows and comply with applicable International Accounting Standards and Interpretations.
The financial statements are prepared under the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
The presentation and classifications of items in the financial statements are retained from one period to the next unless:
a) | it is apparent, following a significant change in the nature of the CHIPIDEA’s operations or a review of its financial statements, that another presentation or classification would be more appropriate having regard to the criteria for selection and application of accounting policies in IAS 8; or |
b) | a standard or an interpretation requires a change in presentation. |
Accounting policies are selected and applied consistently for similar transactions, other events and conditions, unless a standard or interpretation specifically requires or permits categorisation of items for which different policies may be appropriate.
When a standard or an interpretation requires or permits such categorisation, appropriate accounting policies are selected and applied consistently to each category.
Each material class of similar items is presented separately in the financial statements. Similarly items of dissimilar nature or function are presented separately unless they are immaterial.
Assets and liabilities are not offset unless required or permitted by a standard or an interpretation. Likewise, income and expenses are not offset unless required or permitted by a standard or an interpretation.
Comparative information is included for narrative and descriptive information when it is relevant to an understanding of the current period’s financial statements.
(ii) Standards, amendments and interpretations effective in 2006 but not relevant
The following standards, amendments and interpretations are mandatory for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2006 but not relevant to the Group’s operations:
· | IAS 19 (Amendment), Employee Benefits, |
· | IAS 21 (Amendment), Net Investment in a Foreign Operation; |
· | IAS 39 (Amendment), Cash Flow Hedge Accounting of Forecast Intragroup Transactions; |
· | IAS 39 (Amendment), The Fair Value Option; |
· | IAS 39 and IFRS 4 (Amendment), Financial Guarantee Contracts; |
· | IFRS 1 (Amendment), First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards and IFRS 6 (Amendment), Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources; |
· | IFRS 6, Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources; |
· | IFRIC 4, Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease; |
· | IFRIC 5, Rights to Interests arising from Decommissioning, Restoration and Environmental Rehabilitation Funds; and, |
· | IFRIC 6, Liabilities arising from Participating in a Specific Market – Waste Electrical and |
(iii) Standards and Interpretations to existing standards that are not yet effective and have not been early adopted by the Group
The following standards and interpretations to existing standards that are mandatory for the Group’s accounting periods beginning on or after 1 May 2006 or later periods but that the Group has not early adopted have been published:
· | IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, and the complementary Amendment to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements – Capital Disclosures. IFRS 7 introduces new disclosures relating to financial instruments. This standard does not have any impact on the classification and valuation of the Group’s financial instruments. |
· | IFRIC 8, Scope of IFRS 2 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 May 2006). It is not expected to have impact on the Group’s accounts. |
· | IFRIC 10, Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 November 2006). It is not expected to have impact on the Group’s accounts. |
(iv) Interpretations to existing standards that are not yet effective and not relevant for the Group’s operations
The following interpretations to existing standards that are mandatory for the Group’s accounting periods beginning on or after 1 May 2006 or later periods but are not relevant for the Group’s operations have been published:
· | IFRIC 7, Applying the Restatement Approach under IAS 29, Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies (effective from 1 March 2006). |
· | IFRIC 9, Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 June 2006). |
(v) Consolidation Policy
The consolidated financial statements combine the financial statements of CHIPIDEA and all its subsidiaries. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the parent company, using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.
The effects of all balances and transactions between entities in the group have been eliminated in full.
Minority interest is that portion of the profit or loss and net assets of a subsidiary attributable to equity interests that are not owned, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, by the parent. Subsequently, any losses applicable to the minority interest in excess of the minority interest are allocated against the interests of the parent.
(vi) Revenue Recognition
There are two fundamental revenue components associated with CHIPIDEA’s business, one non-recurrent and the other recurrent. The non-recurrent revenue is derived from Licensing and Design Services fees, whereas the recurrent revenue is derived from royalty payments associated with the use of CHIPIDEA’s IP in customers’ products. Such royalty payments can take two forms. One lump sum paid upon each time the supplied IP is reused in a new product and a per chip amount that is paid quarterly as a function of production volumes.
Licence fees and royalty revenue is recognized on an accrual basis in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreement.
Revenue generated from licensing agreements for the use of Analog and Mixed-Signal semiconductor IP (Intellectual Property), which do not require significant customization and the Company has no obligations subsequent to delivery, is recognised when all significant risks and rewards of those rights have been transferred to the buyer. In most cases this coincides with the shipment or electronically delivery of the licensed products, the license fee being fixed and collection of the resulting receivable is probable.
When a licensee has the right to use certain technology for a specified period of time, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement.
For all licenses, the Company uses both a binding purchase order and a signed license agreement as evidence of an arrangement.
Where the outcome of a contract to develop and design Analog and Mixed-Signal semiconductor IP (Intellectual Property) can be estimated reliably, revenue and costs are recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date. This is normally measured by the proportion that contract costs incurred for work performed to date bear to the estimated total contract costs.
Where the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is probable will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately.
The aggregate amount of costs incurred and the profit/loss recognized is compared against the progress billings up to the year end and where costs incurred and recognized profits (less recognized losses) exceed progress billings, the balance is shown as unbilled accounts receivable, under trade and other receivables. Where progress billings exceed costs incurred plus recognized profits (less recognized losses), the balance is shown as deferred revenue, under trade and other payables.
For maintenance and consultancy fees, when performed by an indeterminate number of acts over a specified period of time, revenue is recognised on a straight-line basis over the specified period unless there is evidence that some other method better represents the stage of completion.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer. In most cases this coincides with the transfer of legal title or the passing of possession to the buyer.
(vii) Government Grants
Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that all conditions will be complied with and that the grants will be received.
Grants are recognised in the income statement over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate, on a systematic basis.
Grants related to assets are presented in the balance sheet by setting up the grant as deferred income.
(viii) Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Group’s balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
(ix) Financial Liability and Equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the group after deducting all of its liabilities.
(x) Trade and other Receivables
Trade accounts and other receivables represent the amounts due at balance date plus accrued interest and less, where applicable, appropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounts.
(xi) Available-for-sale financial Assets
A gain or loss from a change in the fair value of an available-for-sale financial asset is recognised directly in equity, through the statement of changes in equity (except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses) until the financial asset is derecognised at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in equity is recognised in profit or loss.
(xii) Interest-Bearing Loans and Borrowings, Current Bank Loans, Bank Overdrafts and Accounts Payable
All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of the consideration received net of issue costs associated with the borrowing.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The amortised cost of a financial liability is the amount initially recognised minus principal repayments, plus or minus cumulative amortisation of any difference between the initial amount and maturity amount.
Current bank loans, bank overdrafts, trade accounts and notes payable, and other payables and accrued liabilities represented the principal amounts outstanding at balance date plus, where applicable, any accrued interest.
(xiii) Leases
A distinction is made between finance leases which transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and rewards incident to ownership of the leased asset and operating leases under which the lessor retains substantially all the risks and rewards. Where an asset is acquired by means of a finance lease, the fair value of the leased property or the present value of minimum lease payments, if lower, is established as an asset at the beginning of the lease term. A corresponding liability is also established and each lease payment is apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. Operating lease rental expense is recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, or on a systematic basis more representative of the time pattern of the user’s benefit.
(xiv) Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for using the comprehensive balance sheet liability method whereby:
· | the tax consequence of recovering (settling) all assets (liabilities) are reflected in the financial statements; |
· | current and deferred tax is recognised as income or expense except to the extent that the tax relates to equity items; |
· | a deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available to realise the asset; and, |
· | deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability settled. |
(xv) Translation of Foreign Currency Transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies on initial recognition in the functional currency are recorded by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
At each balance sheet date:
· | foreign currency monetary items are reported using the closing rate; |
· | non-monetary items which are carried in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction; and |
· | non-monetary items which are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. |
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially translated during the period, or in previous financial statements, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise, with the exception of exchange differences arising on a monetary item that forms part of the net investment in a foreign operation which are recognised initially in a separate component of equity and recognised in profit or loss on disposal of the net investment.
(xvi) Translation of the Financial Statements of Foreign Operations
The following procedures are used in translating the results and financial positions of a entity from its functional currency to the presentation currency:
· | assets and liabilities at the closing rate at the balance sheet date; |
· | income and expense items at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions; and |
· | all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity. |
(xvii) Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred except borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period to get ready for its intended use or sale. In this case the borrowing costs are capitalised as part of the cost of such a qualifying asset.
Borrowing costs capitalised in 2005 amounted to € 50,897.
(xviii) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at historical cost.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method to write off the cost (or revalued amount) of each asset to their residual values over their estimated useful lives (Note 7).
When an asset’s carrying amount is increased as a result of a revaluation, the increase is, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss, credited directly to revaluation surplus.
When an asset’s carrying amount is decreased as a result of a revaluation, the decrease is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that the decrease does not exceed the credit balance existing in the revaluation surplus in respect of that asset.
The revaluation surplus is transferred directly to retained earnings when the asset is derecognised.
The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in income.
(xix) Intangible Assets - Purchased Software and other Separately Acquired Intangible Assets
Purchased software and other separately acquired intangible assets are stated at cost.
The cost of a separately acquired intangible asset comprises:
· | its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates; and |
· | any directly attributable cost of preparing the asset for its intended use. |
The straight line method is used to amortise each asset to their residual values (if any) over their estimated useful life.
(xx) Research and Development Expenditure
Three fundamental aspects characterize the nature of CHIPIDEA’s business previously outlined:
· | high diversity of circuit functions; |
· | lack of functionality and performance standards; and, |
· | multiple process technologies for implementation. |
In this context, the strategic factors for competitiveness are fundamentally two-fold:
· | breadth and depth of engineering capabilities to support the broad line IP portfolio; and, |
· | efficient design methodologies that enable the development of high-quality IP blocks with very short lead times to meet aggressive time-to-market requirements. |
In order to achieve the above strategic factors of competitiveness, CHIPIDEA develops a comprehensive Research and Development (R&D) program.
Research expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
Intangible assets arising from development activities are recognised when all of the following conditions are met:
· | an asset is created that can be identified (such as software and new processes); |
· | resources are available to complete the assets; |
· | future economic benefits from use or sale of the assets is probable; and, |
· | the development cost of the asset can be reliably measured. |
Internally-generated intangible assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Where no internally-generated intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
(xxi) Provisions and Contingent Liabilities
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of such obligation. If the above-mentioned criteria are not fulfilled, contingent liabilities are disclosed.
(xxii) Short-term Employee Benefits
Short-term employee benefits are employee benefits (other than termination benefits and equity compensation benefits), which fall due wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which employee services are rendered. They comprise wages, salaries, social security obligations, short-term compensated absences, profit sharing and bonuses payable within 12 months and non-mandatory benefits such as medical care.
The undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid is recognised as an expense.
(xxiii) Defined Contribution Plans
One of the subsidiaries (Macau) pays fixed contributions to certain pension plans but has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions if the plans do not hold sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits relating to employee service in current and prior periods.
Contributions which fall due wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which employee services are rendered are recognised as expenses on an undiscounted basis.
Contributions which fall due after 12 months are discounted using a rate determined by reference to market yields on high quality corporate bonds/market yields on government bonds.
(xxiv) Other Long-term employee benefits
The company does not provide defined benefit plans. Other long-term employee benefits can include long-service leave, long-term disability benefits, deferred compensation and profit sharing and bonuses payable 12 months or more after the end of the period in which employee services are rendered.
The present value of defined benefit obligations is determined by using the Projected Unit Credit method.
All actuarial gains and losses and past service costs are recognised immediately.
(xxv) Termination Benefits
Termination benefits which fall due more than 12 months after the balance sheet date are discounted using a rate determined by reference to market yields on high quality corporate bonds/market yields on government bonds.
(xxvi) Events after the Balance Sheet Date
Assets and liabilities are adjusted for events occurring after the balance date that provide evidence of conditions existing at the balance date. Important after balance date events which do not meet these criteria are disclosed, if applicable.

The applicable tax rate is the general tax rate applicable in Portugal. This rate was recently changed from 27,5% (25% plus 10% over the income tax expense) to 26,5% (25% plus 1,5 over the taxable income and before deduction of losses carry-forwards).
These changes are effective for the year 2007 and it is expected that the new rates are maintained in the foreseeable future. Therefore the rates used for deferred tax computation concerning the Parent Entity are as follows:
· | 26,5% for taxable and deductible temporary differences; |
· | 25% for tax loss carry-forwards. |

Tax losses carried-forward are related to the Parent Entity (€ 6k expiring in 2009, € 477k expiring in 2011 and € 1.231k expiring in 2012). At the date of transition to IFRS's and on each year end, evaluations were made to the deferred taxes to be recognised. The IFRS conversion adjustments resulted essentially in deferred tax assets that were recorded only to the extent that expected future taxable profits will be available against which the tax losses and deductible tax differences can be used. These assessments were made based on the business plan of the Group, periodically reviewed and updated.
In accordance with current tax legislation in Portugal, the Tax Authorities may review the Company's tax returns during the subsequent four years (six years if tax losses carried forward are used and five years for Social Security contributions).

Development costs capitalized, amounting to € 184k, results from the development of an internal project established in partnership with another entity, which is also a semiconductor product manufacturer. Both parties agreed to develop certain intellectual property (IP) items that shall be used in components to be manufactured by that Chipidea’s partner.
Technical feasibility of this project was established by reference to Chipidea’s experience in dealing with the customization of the underlying IP technology. Furthermore, it is the normal practice of the Company to measure the efforts and related expenditure for all projects as part of its system of internal financial reporting to the Board of Directors and the CEO.
In addition, the above mentioned Chipidea’s partner signed an agreement with a third party for the sale of the above mentioned component to be manufactured. Additionally, following the agreement signed between Chipidea and the above mentioned partner, Chipidea shall receive royalty payments amounting to 15% of the profit made with the component sales to the final customer. This agreement includes a detailed forecast of the future profits for component sales and related royalty payments which supports management expectation for future probable economic benefits.

Provision for disputes with tax authorities | | | 1,187 | | | | 1,187 | |
The provision presented in current liabilities, amounting to € 37 k (2005: € 1 k), refers to expected contract losses on some revenue generating projects. The provision was calculated based on the total estimated project costs (which include the costs already incurred plus the estimated costs to complete based on the most recent budgets for each project) and total estimated contract revenue, which is defined under the relevant agreements. It is expected that the majority of this expenditure will be incurred in the next financial year.
Although there are no claims or litigation in progress, the Group identified some business related risks. The amount recognized as “Other Business Related Risks” represents management’s best estimate of the exposure, considering a range of possible outcomes and the related outflow of resources embodying economic benefits. The amounts and/or timing of those outflows are subjected to significant uncertainties, namely those related to subjective judgment.

Exposure to credit, interest rate and currency risks arise in the normal course of the Group’s business. Derivative financial instruments are not used to reduce exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates as well as interest rates.
Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. Credit evaluations are performed on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount. The Group does not require collateral in respect to financial assets.
Except for the concentration of the trade accounts receivable due from customers on the semiconductor industry, Chipidea had no significant concentrations of credit risk with any single counterparty or group of counterparties.

Finance lease agreements comprise principally the lease of the headquarters of Chipidea. The lease agreement was signed in 2004, for a lease period of 15 years. The building was ready for use in October 2005.
At the inception of the lease the land element was classified as finance lease, whereas the title was expected to pass to the lessee (Chipidea) at the end of the lease term and the lease agreement contains a bargain purchase option for the land element. This option is exercisable within one year after exercising the option for the building element and related “surface rights” at the end of the lease term (10 October 2019). The surface rights were established by a period of 50 years and are an integrated part of the lease agreement, granting to the legitimate owner of such right the option for the full property of the land element after a period of 15 years (end of the lease term). The option for the building and related surface rights amounts to 5% of the gross investment and the land element amounts to € 236.817. Cumulatively, the price of both lease payments at the end of the lease term are expected to be substantially lower than the fair value at the date the option becomes exercisable.
Nevertheless, during 2006 Chipidea negotiated with the Lessor and with an investment fund a sale and leaseback transaction concerning the above mentioned headquarters. Although Chipidea signed a binding agreement for this sale and received an advance payment from the investment fund amounting to € 1.625 thousand (presented in trade and other payables and included in other payables – refer to note 9), at 31st December 2006 and until the present date this transaction is not concluded as some licences were yet to be issued by the municipal authorities. The unavailability of these licences precludes the item to be considered “available for sale” as defined by IFRS 5.
Furthermore, as part of the binding sales agreement, the leasback shall result in an operational lease with a non-cancellable period of 10 years. Under this agreement Chipidea already paid out advance rents amounting to € 55 thousand (presented as prepayments under trade and other receivales – refer to note 6).
Considering that the transaction should be concluded in the first half of 2007, the minimum finance lease payments due within one year (presented in the preceding table) includes the total amount to be paid after the conclusion of the sale. These payments shall be done after receiving the remaining proceeds from the sale (€ 4.875 thousand).
Until the conclusion of the transaction Chipidea shall maintain a bank guarantee of € 70 thousand and a restricted bank deposit of € 566 thousand (presented under trade and other receivables as other receivables– refer to note 6)
Also, considering that the operational lease shall be effective immediately after the sale, we present below the total future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases. These refer only to the above mentioned headquarters.
