In 2015, the Group acquired two investment properties. In the first half of 2015, the Group purchased real estate entity IDEE, s.r.o. owning retail and office property located in the centre of Prague. Total acquisition cost amounted to CZK 398 million, including contingent consideration of CZK 28 million paid to the seller in January 2016 after meeting conditions defined in the purchase agreement.

Another property was acquired in December 2015 in Warsaw, when the Group paid CZK 578 million to purchase an office building located in the Wlochy district, an established secondary office location facing Jerozolimskie avenue.

A property owned by the Group which was presented as non-current assets held for sale in the amount of CZK 6 million at 31 December 2014 was decided to be kept as an investment property and reclassified to this section. For further details see Note F.8.

Acquisitions into the Group in 2014 of CZK 2,120 million represent property acquired by purchase of Palác Křižík a.s. The transaction is considered an acquisition of group of assets.

The fair value of investment properties is based on the valuation of an independent valuator who holds a recognised and relevant professional qualification and has recent experience in the location and category of the investment property being valued.

Investment properties are mainly valuated on the basis of inputs of similar assets in active markets or of discounted cash flows of future income and expenses of the rental considered as part of the higher and best use by a market participant.

Based on the analysis of inputs used for valuations, considering the limited cases where the inputs would be observable in active markets, the Group proceeded to classify the whole category at level 3.

For investment income see Note F.19, for investment expense see Note F.23.

In 2014, the Group had investment in REFICOR s.r.o. and a Russian company Finansovyj servis o.o.o.. The value of investment in REFICOR was CZK 0.1 million and the investment in Finansovyj servis was fully impaired.

In 2015, REFICOR s.r.o. merged with another Group entity Pankrác services s.r.o. (see Note B.1.) and the investment was reclassified to consolidated subsidiaries. Net amount of investment in Finansovyj servis did not change.

During 2015 the Group share in Fond nemovitostních akcií decreased below 20%. As a result the company is not any longer classified as associated company (see Note B.1.). The investment has been reclassified to financial investments and is accounted for in accordance with IAS 39.

In the first half of 2015, ČP DIRECT, a.s. merged with Generali Care, a.s., a company of GCEE Group. As a result of the merger, ČP DIRECT ceased and the Group recognized its participation interest in Generali Care. The investment was classified as investment in associate and is accounted for under the equity method.

Generally, if available and if the market is defined as active, fair value is equal to the market price. In the opposite case, the fair value is determined using the market and income approach. Primary inputs to the market approach are quoted prices for identical or comparable assets in active markets where the comparability between security and benchmark defines the fair value level. The income approach in most cases means a discounted cash flow method where either the cash flow or the discount curve is adjusted to reflect credit risk and liquidity risk, using interest rates and yiels curves commonly observable at frequent intervals. Depending on observability of these parameters, the security is classified in level 2 or level 3.

Transfer of corporate bonds in the amount of CZK 727 million from Level 2 into Level 3 in 2015 is caused by stress in the financial markets which led to unavailability of observable market inputs, namely level of credit spreads.

Further analysis was carried out in order to harmonize the portfolio in 2015. Based on that corporate bonds in the amount of CZK 1,700 million were reclassified into the Level 2 from Level 3 and government bonds in the amount of CZK 256 million were reclassified into Level 2 from Level 3.

In 2014, corporate bonds in the amount of CZK 4,309 million were reclassified from level 2 into Level 3 in connection with stress in the financial markets which led to unavailability of observable market inputs, namely level of credit spreads.

Further analysis was carried out in order to harmonize criteria for pricing and levelling. As a result, government bonds in the amount of CZK 828 million were reclassified from level 2 into Level 3 as a result of unavailable market information about its yields.
