Restatement of historic financial statements (Poland)
UNIT4 has identified adjustments related to its previous financial statements. Internal governance
systems have discovered irregularities in the financial reporting of UNIT4’s Polish operating
company (UNIT4 Teta), one of UNIT4’s operating companies. The accounting irregularities relate to
a number of historic transactions with external partners and which were not, or incorrectly
recognized in the financial statements. The first of these transactions relate to the period well before
UNIT4 acquired Teta S.A. in July 2010.
On further uncovering the issue, UNIT4 replaced the CEO of its Polish operating company and took
further effective actions to avoid any repetition in the future. The company has also initiated a
comprehensive investigation by external forensic experts with regard to potential off-balance sheet
exposure. This investigation is still ongoing.
UNIT4 has retroactively restated, in accordance with the IFRS requirements for prior period error
adjustment, the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities related to these transactions at the
date of acquisition. All transactions after the acquisition date have been retroactively adjusted (see:
paragraph 6.5 page 14).
For comparison purposes the income statement for 2011 is adjusted as follows:
As a result of the prior year’s error adjustments explained above, the goodwill for the cashgenerating
unit Teta increased with €10.2 million (balance as per 31 December 2011).
The issue described above does not affect the Polish subsidiary’s ability to continue its normal
course of business and did not lead to an impairment charge as per 30 June 2012.
