2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND GENERAL ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

a) Basic accounting principles and the consolidation method

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with paragraph 22 of Act 563/1991 Coll. on Accounting as amended, on the going concern basis and under the historical cost convention.

The full consolidation method was applied to the consolidation of SWFC. The accounting value method was applied to the consolidation of equity, resulting in no consolidation difference. The first equity consolidation date is 31 December 1999. SWFC’s share capital is EUR 18,500.

b) Intangible assets

Purchased intangible assets are stated at cost, which includes the acquisition price and the related acquisition costs including capitalized interest. At 31 December 2002, the Company did not acquire any intangible assets as gifts and produced no intangible assets internally.

The Company used a depreciation plan based on the expected economic useful lives of intangible assets, ranging from three to five years. The licenses granted by the Telecommunications Office of the Slovak Republic are depreciated over 5 years even in cases when their periods of validity and estimated useful lives exceed such period.

Intangible assets with a useful life exceeding one year and with acquisition cost lower than SKK 40,000 are considered low-value intangible assets. Low-value intangible with the acquisition price less than SKK 5,000 are written off when put in use; the Company keeps operational records to track such assets. Low-value intangible assets with the acquisition cost from SKK 5,001 up to SKK 40,000 are depreciated on a straight-line basis according to their economic useful lives.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND GENERAL ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (continued)

c) Tangible fixed assets

Purchased tangible fixed assets are stated at cost, which includes the acquisition price and the related acquisition costs including capitalized interest. The Company creates provisions against items of tangible fixed assets, where the carrying value of an asset exceeds its value in use. In 2002, the Company did not receive any tangible fixed assets as gifts and did not produce any tangible fixed assets internally.

Tangible fixed assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis according to their expected economic useful lives, which are as follows:

	Years of depreciation
Buildings and structures	15
Machines and machinery	2 – 10
Other tangible fixed assets	3

As a result of differences between the depreciation for tax and accounting purposes, the Company accounts for deferred taxes.

Tangible fixed assets with a useful life exceeding one year and with the acquisition cost lower than SKK 20,000 are considered low-value tangible fixed assets. Low-value tangible fixed assets with an acquisition price less than SKK 5,000 are written off when put in use; the Company keeps operational records to track such assets. Low-value tangible fixed assets with an acquisition price from SKK 5,001 up to SKK 20,000 are fully depreciated when put in use, except for specific categories, which are depreciated on the basis of their economic useful lives.

d) Leased assets

At 31 December 2002, the Company did not use any assets acquired under financial leases.

e) Financial investments

Financial investments are carried at acquisition cost. No provision was made for financial investments at 31 December 2002.

f) Inventories

Inventories are carried at acquisition cost less any provisions. Acquisition cost includes the acquisition price and costs relating to the acquisition (transport, commission, customs duty, insurance). Inventories consist of purchased goods (mobile phones with accessories, routers, DPN, and modems) for resale; spare parts for mobile phones, base stations and data nodes, SIM cards and consumables. Purchased goods and spare parts for mobile phones are carried at the pre-set acquisition cost (“standard cost”), with separate accounting for any variations from the actual acquisition cost and additional acquisition costs. The variations from the actual acquisition cost and additional acquisition costs are expensed monthly, depending on the amount of goods sold, using a method described below to account for valuation differences.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND GENERAL ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (continued)

Consumables and spare parts for base stations and data nodes are carried at the actual acquisition cost using the FIFO method to account for their consumption. SIM cards are carried using the weighted average accounting method.

In the Company’s analytical records, the acquisition cost is analyzed into the acquisition price and other acquisition costs. The arising valuation variance expense was charged on a monthly basis in the following amount:

% of valuation variance         = (opening valuation variance + additions to valuation variance)/(opening balance of inventories +                                                    additions to inventories)

Valuation variance expense = actual consumption x% of valuation variance

Consumption of inventories is accounted for using cost used to value the items in stock. A provision is created against obsolete and slow moving inventories and other inventories, where their carrying value exceeds net realizable value.

g) Construction contracts

In 2002, the Company did not recognize contracts.

h) Receivables, accruals, and prepayments

Receivables, accruals, and prepayments are stated at their nominal value less provisions for doubtful and bad debts and for receivables from companies in bankruptcy.

i) Current financial assets

Current financial assets, which include cash, duty stamps, and highly liquid securities, are stated at cost. No provision was made for financial assets at 31 December 2002.

j) Liabilities, accruals and deferred income

Liabilities, accruals and deferred income are stated at their nominal value.

k) Provisions

Provisions for liabilities and charges are stated at the amount necessary to cover the known or probable risks and losses from business activities.

The Company sets up provisions for specific purposes based on facts known at the time of their creation. These facts are statistically evaluated and used to estimate their future occurrence or development (the loyalty scheme EuroTel Club provision for future redemption of credits awarded to customers, provision for retirement bonuses paid to employees according to the Labour Code). Provisions are also created in absolute amounts based on valid contractual relationships related to future periods. Provisions for unrealized foreign exchange losses and for losses related to the holding of short-term bonds are also set up in absolute amounts.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND GENERAL ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (continued)

The Company also sets up general provisions based on identifying and evaluating risks from its business activities.

l) Principles for setting up provisions against the value of assets

Provisions for fixed assets are created against tangible and intangible fixed assets, if the value in use is significantly lower than their book value.

Provisions for receivables are created for receivables at risk, which have been identified during the analysis of receivables. The Company uses written communication with clients as well as a third party to verify the debtor’s financial situation to assess the credit risk.

Receivables are analysed to specific credit risk categories and a provision is calculated using percentages assigned to such credit risk categories.

Provisions for inventories are created in accordance with the accounting principle of prudence for obsolete stock, where the Company expects decreasing demand and the selling price has decreased due to age of inventories. The stock-take records support this indirect decrease of inventory value.

The amount of provision is calculated using an analysis of inventories sold in the past periods and using informed assessment of their future sales. A pre determined provision percentage is applied to individual types of inventories and expected future sale time periods.

m) Revenues

Revenues from the sale of goods and services are stated net of discounts and VAT. In general, revenues are recognized when the goods or services are provided to customers. Monthly access fees, invoiced one month in advance are deferred until the services are rendered. Airtime revenues are billed one month in arrears and are accrued, via estimated receivables, so as to be recognized when the services were rendered. Sales of Easy vouchers are deferred to the period when the minutes were used. Revenues from the sale of mobile phones and accessories are recognized at the time of sale.

n) Foreign currency conversion

Transactions in foreign currency are converted and accounted for in accordance with the National Bank of Slovakia (“NBS”) exchange rate valid on the day of the transaction (payables when the related purchase invoice is received, receivables when the sales invoice is issued, cash on the day of the transaction with the bank account or cash in hand).

All assets and liabilities recorded in foreign currency were at the balance sheet data converted using the NBS foreign exchange rate. Provisions were made for unrealized foreign exchange losses and charged to the income statement. Unrealized foreign exchange gains are not posted to the income statement. Foreign exchange differences from cash in hand, bank accounts and short-term financial investments are recognized in the income statement.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND GENERAL ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (continued)

The individual financial statements of SWFC at 31 December 2002 were included in these consolidated financial statements after retranslation of balance sheet items using the NBS’ exchange rate at 31 December 2002 of EUR 1 = SKK 41.722.

o) Additional pension insurance

At present, the Company does not offer any additional pension insurance plans to its employees. The Company makes regular contributions to the statutory pension plan.

p) Deferred tax

Due to temporary differences between depreciation of tangible and intangible fixed assets for accounting and tax purposes, the Company accounted for the deferred tax liability at 31 December 2002.

r) Research and development

At 31 December 2002, the Company did not recognise any costs related to research and development.

s) Changes in accounting

No changes were made in the accounting, valuation or manner of depreciation. Certain balances included in the comparative consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
