INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

 

To the Shareholders and Directors of AENZA S.A.A.

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of AENZA S.A.A. and subsidiaries (hereinafter the Company), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2022, the consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

 

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022, and its consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) approved for their application in Peru by the Dean’s Council of the Peruvian Professional Associations of Public Accountants. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in Peru, together with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements, respectively. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

 

Emphasis of Matter

 

We draw attention to the following matters. Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters.

 

As discussed in notes 5(a)(iv), 11(b) and 14(a)(i) to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022, the Company maintains an account receivable from Gasoducto Sur Peruano S.A. (hereinafter GSP or the Consortium) for S/ 542.3 million. The GSP is in a bankruptcy proceeding for its liquidation before the National Institute for the Defense of Competition and Protection of Intellectual Property (INDECOPI, for its Spanish acronym). The liquidation agreement, approved by the Board of Creditors on April 11, 2023, establishes that the Liquidator must execute before the Peruvian government the required actions that allow the recovery of the net carrying amount of the concession and, since such recovery, the payment of the GSP’s accounts receivable. The recovery of the account receivable will depend on the success of the liquidation process to be executed by the Liquidator appointed by the Board of Creditors.

As discussed in note 1(c) and 21(a) to the consolidated financial statements, the Company is involved in a series of criminal investigations conducted by the Public Ministry of Peru for corruption offenses related to the execution of certain infrastructure projects in which AENZA S.A.A. participated as a minority shareholder, directly or indirectly, through its subsidiaries Cumbra Perú S.A. and Unna Transporte S.A., with entities of the Odebrecht Group and projects related to the “Construction Club case”. On September 15, 2002, AENZA S.A.A. signed a Final Collaboration and Benefits Agreement with the Attorney General’s Office and the Peruvian Public Prosecutor’s Office, which is subject to court approval by the Peruvian Judiciary, in which it accepted the payment of a civil remedy to the Peruvian government for S/ 488.9 million. In addition, the subsidiary Cumbra Perú S.A. is subject to an administrative sanctions procedure from INDECOPI with respect to events that occurred between the years 2003 and 2016 relating to the “Construction Club” case, recognizing a provision in the consolidated financial statements for S/ 52.4 million.

 

Key Audit Matters

 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

 

Valuation of Trade Account Receivable from Gasoducto Sur Peruano S.A.

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022, include an account receivable, net of provision for recovery, from the GSP for S/ 542.3 million,for further details, see notes 5(a)(iv), 11(b) and 14(a)(i) to the consolidated financial statements. The Company has a 20% investment in GSP, a company that entered into a concession contract with the Peruvian Government in 2014. In January 2017, the Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Mines terminated the concession contract early due to GSP not accrediting the financial closure of the project within the contractual term. In December 2017, GSP started a bankruptcy process, in which the Company is part of GSP’s creditors. In addition, the GSP Settlement Agreement was approved by the Creditors’ Meeting to execute this procedure, by which GSP estimates that it can recover from the Peruvian State the VCN of the concession assets and, consequently, the Company should recover the account receivable from GSP.

 

The account receivable from the GSP is a key audit matter due to the importance of the amount presented in the consolidated financial statements, for the required judgment on Management’s evaluation of the recoverable amount of this account receivable due to the possible courses of action that the Creditors’ Meeting can choose and the moment for its execution. In addition, the evaluation of the discount rate used to determine the amount of account receivable from GSP requires specialized skills and knowledge. In this type of long-term and complex proceedings, from a legal and economic perspective, the estimates made by management, including the recoverable amount of this account receivable and the estimated term for its recovery, could change in the future.

 

Our audit procedures in this area included, among others: evaluate the legal analysis performed by the Company’s management and its external legal advisors related to the early termination of the concession agreement and the corresponding conclusions that impacted the recoverable amount of the account receivable. Evaluate the report of the Company’s external legal advisors regarding the liquidation process under execution by the GSP’s Board of Creditors. Engage our legal and financial specialists to assist us in the evaluation of the significant judgments and assumptions used by the Company’s management at December 31, 2022, by developing an independent range of discount rates and comparing them to those used by the Company. Evaluate the adequacy of disclosures included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Provisions for civil reparation to the Peruvian government and for the sanctioning administrative procedure from INDECOPI

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022, include a provision for civil remedy to the Peruvian government for S/ 488.9 million. Likewise, they include a provision for contingencies with INDECOPI for S/ 52.4 million with respect to the investigation of events that occurred between the years 2003 and 2016 related to the “Construction Club” case. As discussed in notes 1(c) and 21(a) to the consolidated financial statements, as a result of the criminal investigations conducted by the Public Ministry of Peru, the Company signed a Final Collaboration and Benefits Agreement, dated September 15, 2022, with the Peruvian Public Prosecutor’s Office and the Attorney General’s Office, establishing the payment of a civil remedy to the Peruvian government. Such collaboration agreement is subject to court approval by the Peruvian Judiciary. In relation to the administrative sanctions proceeding conducted by INDECOPI, the final administrative resolution by the Court of this supervisory board is still pending.

 

These provisions recognized under the final collaboration and benefits agreement with the Peruvian government and related to INDECOPI’s investigation are key audit matters due to the importance of the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments used by the Company’s management to estimate these provisions, the complexity and duration of the legal and administrative proceedings in Peru and the potential future changes in the conditions of the agreements and/or amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements until the completion of such proceedings.

 

Our audit procedures in this area included, among others: evaluate the report of the Company’s external legal advisors regarding the final collaboration and benefits agreement and the administrative sanctions proceeding from INDECOPI. Read the final collaboration and benefits agreement signed by and between the Peruvian Public Prosecutor’s Office, the Attorney General’s Office and the Company on September 15, 2022. Compare the amounts described in the final collaboration and benefits agreement with the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Evaluate the adequacy of disclosures included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition for Engineering and Construction Contracts under the Method for Measuring Progress

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, include revenue from construction contracts for S/ 2,451 million. As discussed in note 2.W to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognized revenue from engineering and construction contracts over time using the output method to measure the physical percentage of completion which is based on surveys of performance by the Company´s experts.

 

The recognition of revenue from engineering and construction contracts over time and under the output method is a key audit matter due to the importance of the amount of revenue recognized in the audited period, the significant judgments used by the Company’s management to measure the physical progress of engineering and construction projects. Specialists were required to evaluate the physical progress.

 

Our audit procedures in this area included, among others: evaluate the professional qualifications and the knowledge, skills and ability of the Company’s specialists involved in engineering and construction projects. Evaluate a sample of revenue from engineering and construction contracts to: (i) inspect the contracts signed between the Company and its customers to assess the effects on revenue recognition of the contractual terms; (ii) analyze the recognition of revenue from engineering and construction contracts using the corresponding supporting documentation, such as work progress, valuations and invoices made, among others; (iii) interview and review documentation prepared by Company´s project personnel; (iv) engage our technical engineer specialist to assist us in the evaluation of physical percentage-of-completion. Evaluate the adequacy of disclosures included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

C. Compliance with laws and regulations

 

The Company is involved in a series of criminal investigations conducted by the Public Ministry of Peru and administrative proceedings conducted by the National Institute for the Defense of Competition and Protection of Intellectual Property (INDECOPI, for its Spanish Acronym) based on events that occurred between years 2003 and 2016. Such situations led to significant changes in the Company’s corporate governance structure, the opening of independent investigations and the adoption of measures to address and clarify these situations.

 

Criminal investigations derived from projects developed in partnership with companies of the Odebrecht Group

 

In connection with the Lava Jato case, the Company participated as a minority partner in six infrastructure projects with Odebrecht Group, directly or through its subsidiaries, in entities or consortia. The resulting contingency from these proceedings has been determined in the Final Collaboration and Benefits Agreement (“the Agreement”) signed with the Peruvian Public Prosecutor’s Office and Attorney General’s Office and includes the following projects: IIRSA Sur Tranches 2 and 3, IIRSA Norte, the Electric Train Construction Project (Tranches 1 and 2) and Gasoducto Sur Peruano (GSP)

 

Criminal investigations in relation to the Construction Club case

 

Cumbra Peru S.A. has been included, along with other construction companies, in the criminal investigation that the Public Ministry of Peru has been carrying out for the alleged crime of corruption of officials in relation to the so-called ‘Construction Club’. The resulting contingency from these proceedings has been determined in the Agreement with the Peruvian Public Prosecutor’s Office and the Attorney General’s Office.

 

Moreover, at the end of February 2020, the Public Ministry of Peru requested Unna Transporte S.A.C., be included in such criminal investigation. That request was approved in October 2021. Just like other executives of other construction companies, a former commercial manager of Cumbra Peru S.A., a former president of the Board of Directors, a former Director, and the former Corporate General Manager of the Company have been included in these criminal investigations.

 

The Company’s Management cannot guarantee the finding nor rule out the possibility of authorities or third parties finding additional adverse evidence not currently known with respect to other projects executed during the period under investigation. If applicable, these new facts could be included in the Agreement entered into with the Peruvian Public Prosecutor’s Office and the Attorney General’s Office.

 

Final Plea Agreement

 

On May 21, 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement with the Special Team of Peruvian prosecutors who are committed to full dedication to the knowledge of investigations related to corruption offenses of officials and related personnel, in which the company Odebrecht and others would have incurred (the “Prosecutor’s Office”) and with the ad hoc Public Prosecutor’s Office for investigations and processes related to crimes corruption of officials, money laundering and related activities allegedly committed by the Odebrecht company and others (the “Attorney General’s Office”).

 

On September 15, 2022, the Agreement was entered into between the Peruvian Public Prosecutor’s Office, the Attorney General’s Office and the Company, whereby AENZA S.A.A. accepted they were utilized by certain former executives to commit illicit acts in a series of periods until 2016, and committed to pay a civil compensation to the Peruvian Government of approximately S/ 488.9 million (approximately S/ 333.3 million and US$ 40.7 million, respectively) calculated according to the formulae established by Law 30737.

 

According to the Agreement, payment shall be made within twelve (12) years at a legal interest rate in soles and dollars (3% and 1% annual interest as of December 31, 2022, respectively). The Company also undertakes to establish a series of guarantees after the approval (by which the judge verify that the agreement are in accordance with Law) of the Agreement, composed of i) a trust agreement that includes shares issued by a subsidiary of the Company, ii) mortgage on a property owned by the Company, and iii) a guarantee account with funds equivalent to the annual installment for the following year. Among other conditions, the Agreement includes a restriction for AENZA S.A.A. and subsidiaries Cumbra Peru S.A. and Unna Transporte S.A.C. to participate in public construction and road maintenance contracts for 2 years from the approval of the Agreement. The other member companies of the Corporation are not subject to any impediment or prohibition to contract with the Peruvian Government. As of December 31, 2022, the Company recognized in its financial statements the total liabilities associated to the Agreement for S/488.9 million (Note 21.a) recognizing an expense of S/258.3 million under “Other Income and Expenses” and an exchange difference income of S/9.5 million under “Financial Expenses” in 2022 (Note 26.A) (As of December 31, 2021, the balance is S/240.1 million).

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

As of December 31, 2022, and as of the reporting date of the consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of the Company’s Management and legal advisors, the civil compensation covers the total contingency to which the Company is exposed to as a result of the investigations revealed since 2017. Nevertheless, the Agreement enforceability is subject to court approval and its terms and conditions are subject to confidentiality provisions.

 

Investigations and administrative process initiated by INDECOPI in relation to the Construction Club case

 

On July 11, 2017, the INDECOPI initiated an investigation against several Peruvian construction companies (including Cumbra Peru S.A.), about the existence of an alleged cartel called the Construction Club.

 

On February 11, 2020, the subsidiary Cumbra Peru S.A. was notified by the Technical Secretariat (the “TS”) of the Free Competition Defense Commission of INDECOPI with the resolution that begins a sanctioning administrative procedure involving a total of 35 companies and 28 natural persons, for alleged anticompetitive conduct in the market of Public Works.

 

On November 17, 2021, the Commission imposed a fine of approximately S/67 million against Cumbra Peru S.A., which is currently being challenged and is pending of resolution by the final administrative instance within the INDECOPI Court. As of December 31, 2022, Cumbra Peru S.A. recorded an provision amounting to S/52.4 million (as of December 31, 2021 a present value equivalent to S/52.6 million was recorded).

 

Investigations and administrative process initiated by INDECOPI in relation to the labor recruitment market

 

On February 7, 2022, Cumbra Peru S.A. and Unna Transporte S.A.C. were notified with Resolution 038-2021/CLC-INDECOPI, by means of which the National Directorate of Research and Promotion of Free Competition of INDECOPI decided to initiate an administrative sanctioning procedure regarding the alleged horizontal collusive practice in the modality of concerted sharing of suppliers in the market of hiring workers in the construction sector at national level from 2011 to 2017.

 

On April 7, 2022, Cumbra Peru S.A. and Unna Transporte S.A.C. proposed a cease-and-desist agreement for the early termination of the sanctioning administrative procedure, where they (i) accepted the alleged conduct, (ii) committed to comply with a free competition rules compliance program during years 2022, 2023, and 2024, and (iii) committed to paying a compensation amounting to S/ 2.7 million in two installments (the first one within 60 days after the notification of the Resolution approving the cessation undertaking and the second one within 12 months). By means of Resolution 054-2022/CLC-INDECOPI dated August 19, 2022, the INDECOPI approved the proposed cease-and-desist agreement and concluded the sanctioning procedure.

 

2. Basis of Preparation and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Significant accounting policies applied to prepare the consolidated financial statements are detailed below. These policies have been applied consistently to all years presented in these financial statements; unless otherwise indicated.

 

Going concern basis of accounting

 

Management continues to have a reasonable expectation that the Corporation has adequate resources to continue in operation for a reasonable period of time and that the going concern basis of accounting remains appropriate. Following the Post Covid stabilization process initiated in 2021, the Corporation was able to regain operational control of all its operations in 2022. As of December 31, 2022 AENZA’s consolidated backlog amounted to S/5,327.6 million (US$1,394.7 million). Corporation believes that backlog provides visibility for potential growth in the coming years and that is strategically targeted to key end-markets such as mining, infrastructure, power, energy and real estate. As a leading Peruvian conglomerate in Infrastructure, Energy, Real Estate, and Engineering & Construction segments with a diversified and difficult-to-replicate portfolio of best-in-class assets and an attractive growth strategy, the Corporation is well-positioned to capitalize upon the significant infrastructure deficit and other business opportunities in Latin America.

 

For the year ended 2022, the Corporation’s current assets as of December 31, 2022 were S/2,792 million and the Corporation’s cash and cash equivalents were S/917.6 million. As of December 31, 2022, Corporation had a total outstanding indebtedness of S/1,690.7 million (US$442.6 million). In 2022, the Corporation recognized a loss of the year of S/362.1 million, which were affected primarily by non-recurring costs in relation to past projects in the E&C segment and the provision related to the Plea Agreement signed on September 15, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized in its financial statements the total liabilities associated with the Plea Agreement recognizing an expense of S/258.3 million. In this sense, AENZA is committed to pay a civil compensation to the Peruvian Government of approximately S/488.9 million. Additionally, on March 17, 2022, the Corporation entered into a bridge loan credit agreement for up to US$120 million that matures in October 2023.

 

The appropriateness of the going concern basis of accounting is dependent on the continued availability of borrowings. Management has the ability to take the following mitigation actions to preserve liquidity and optimize the Group’s cash flow:

 

-Reducing non-essential capital expenditures and deferring or cancelling discretionary spend;

 

-Financial restructuring, including a short-term and long-term structural solutions and capital increase.

 

Based on these factors, Management has a reasonable expectation that the Corporation has adequate resources headroom.

 

A. Basis of preparation

 

i. Basis of accounting

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) effective as of December 31, 2022.

 

ii. Basis of measurement

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, according to the Corporation’s accounting records, except for derivative financial instruments and investment property, which are measured at fair value.

 

iii. Responsibility for the information

 

The information contained in these financial statements is the responsibility of the Management of the Corporation that expressly states that all the principles and criteria included in the IFRSs as issued by the IASB, effective as of December 31, 2021 and 2022, have been applied.

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

iv. Functional and presentation currency

 

These consolidated financial statements are presented in soles (S/), which is the Corporation’s functional currency. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise indicated. The functional currencies of the Subsidiaries domiciled in Chile and Colombia are CLP (Chilean Pesos) and COP (Colombian Pesos), respectively.

 

v. Use of judgments and estimates

 

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, Management has made judgments and estimates that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized prospectively.

 

Judgments

 

Information about judgments made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes:

 

Revenue recognition: identification of performance obligations and determination of revenue recognition at a point in time (Note 2.W).

 

Lease term: whether the Company and its Subsidiary are reasonably certain to exercise extension options in leases (note 2.Y).

 

Estimate of current tax payable and current tax expense in relation to an uncertain tax treatment (Note 2.R).

 

Assumptions and estimation uncertainties

 

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties as of December 31, 2021 and 2022, that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities is included in the following notes:

 

Measurement of expected credit losses (ECL) allowance for trade receivables and contract assets: (Note 2.I);

 

Recognition and measurement of provisions and contingencies: key assumptions about the likelihood and magnitude of an outflow of resources (Note 2.T);

 

Recognition of deferred tax assets: availability of future taxable profit against which deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can be utilized in previous periods (Note 2.R);

 

Allowance for inventory obsolescence (Note 2.J);

 

Allowance for useful lives and residual values of property, plant, and equipment (Note 2.L).

 

Measurement of fair values

 

A number of the Corporation’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

 

The Company has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. If third party information, such as broker quotes or pricing services, is used to measure fair values, then the Company assesses the evidence obtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that these valuations meet the requirements of IFRS, including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which the valuations should be classified. The Company regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments.

 

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Corporation uses observable market data as far as possible. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:

 

Level 1: Measurement based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
   
Level 2: Measurement based on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

 

9

 

 

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

Level 3: Measurement based on inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (i.e. unobservable inputs, generally based on internal estimates and assumptions of the Corporation).

 

If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.

 

The Corporation recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during the period which the change occurred.

 

B. Consolidation of financial statements

 

i. Subsidiaries

 

The Company ‘controls’ an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases.

 

Business acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Balances, income, and expenses from transactions between Corporation companies are eliminated. Profits and losses resulting from inter-group transactions that are recognized as assets are also eliminated.

 

ii. Business Combinations

 

The Corporation accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when control is transferred to the Corporation. The consideration transferred in the acquisition is generally measured at fair value, as are the identifiable net assets acquired. Any goodwill that arises is tested annually for impairment. Any gain on a bargain purchase is recognized in profit or loss immediately. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

 

iii. Non-controlling interests

 

For each business combination, the Corporation shall select between measuring the non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value or at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. Changes in the Corporation’s interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.

 

iv. Associates

 

Associates are those entities in which the Corporation has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies. A joint venture is an arrangement in which the Corporation has joint control, whereby the Corporation has rights to the net assets of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and obligations for its liabilities.

 

Interests in associates and the joint venture are accounted for using the equity method. They are initially recognized at cost, which includes transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the consolidated financial statements include the Corporation’s share of the profit or loss and OCI of equity-accounted investees, until the date on which significant influence or joint control ceases.

 

v. Joint arrangements

 

Under IFRS 11, investments in joint arrangements are classified as either a joint operation or as a joint venture depending upon each investor’s rights and obligations arising from the arrangement. The Corporation has assessed the nature of its joint arrangements and determined that they are joint ventures.

 

Joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, interest in joint ventures is initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Corporation’s share of post-acquisition profits and losses, as well as movements in other comprehensive income. When the Corporation’s share in the losses of a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in such joint venture (including any long-term share that is substantially part of the Corporation’s net investment in the joint venture), the Corporation does not recognize additional losses, unless it has assumed obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint ventures.

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

Unrealized gains on transactions between the Corporation and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Corporation’s interest in such joint ventures. Unrealized losses are also eliminated, unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Gains arising from the application of the equity of accounting method are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

 

In the Corporation, joint operations mainly relate to consortia (entities without legal personality) created for the development of construction contracts. Considering that the only objective of this type of consortium is to develop a specific project, all revenue and costs are included within revenue from construction activities and cost of construction activities, respectively.

 

vi. Changes in ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control

 

Transactions with non-controlling shareholders that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions, i.e. as transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between the fair value of any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying amount of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals of shares to non-controlling shareholders are also recorded in equity at the time of disposal.

 

vii. Disposal of subsidiaries

 

When the Corporation loses control of a subsidiary, any interest retained in said entity is remeasured at its fair value at the date it loses control of the subsidiary, and any change in respect to the carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss. Subsequently, said fair value is considered the initial carrying amount for purposes of accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Corporation had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This means that the amount previously recognized in other comprehensive income could be reclassified to profit or loss for the year.

 

viii. Transactions eliminated on consolidation

 

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated. Unrealized gains arising from transactions with equity-accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Corporation’s interest in the investee. Unrealized losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealized gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

 

C. Foreign currency translation

 

i. Functional and presentation currency

 

These consolidated financial statements are presented in soles (S/), which is the Corporation’s functional and presentation currency. All subsidiaries, joint arrangements, and associates use the Peruvian sol as their functional currency, except for foreign subsidiaries, for which the functional currency is the currency of the country in which they operate.

 

ii. Transactions and balances

 

Transactions in foreign currency are translated into functional currency at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions or the valuation date in the case of items that are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognized in the statement of profit or loss, except when deferred in other comprehensive income. Foreign exchange gains and losses of all monetary items are included in the statement of other comprehensive income under ‘Exchange difference, net’.

 

Exchange differences arising from foreign currency loans granted by the Company to its subsidiaries are recognized in profit or loss both in the consolidated financial statements of the Company and in the separate financial statements of the subsidiaries. In the consolidated financial statements, such exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and are reclassified to profit or loss in the event of the disposal of the subsidiary or debt repayment to the extent such loans qualify as part of the “net investment in a foreign operation.”

iii. Corporation companies

 

The results and financial position of the Corporation entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the Corporation’s presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

 

(i)assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position are translated at the closing rate at the date of that consolidated statement of financial position;
   

(ii)income and expenses for each statement of profit or loss are translated at the average exchange rate (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate prevailing on the date of the transaction);
   

(iii)capital is translated by using the historical exchange rate for each capital contribution made; and
   

(iv)all resulting exchange differences are recognized as separate components in other comprehensive income, under ‘Translation of net investment in foreign operations’.

 

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and are translated at the closing exchange rate. Exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

 

D. Operating segments

 

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Corporation’s Management.

 

If there are changes in the internal organization in a manner that causes the identification of operating segments to change, the Corporation shall restate the comparative information for earlier periods unless the information is not available.

 

E. Public service concessions

 

Concession agreements entered into between the Corporation and the Peruvian government whereby the Corporation, acting in its capacity as concessionaire, assumes obligations for the construction and improvement of infrastructure, and which qualify as public service concessions are accounted as defined by IFRIC 12 Service Concession Arrangements. Under these arrangements, the government controls and regulates the infrastructure services provided by the Company and establishes to whom these services are to be provided and at what prices. The concession agreement establishes the obligation to return the infrastructure to the grantor at the end of the concession term or when there is any expiration event. This feature gives the grantor the control over the risks and rewards of the residual value of the assets at the end of the concession term. For this reason, the Company will not recognize infrastructure as part of its premises, plant, and equipment. The consideration to be received from the Peruvian government for public infrastructure construction or improvement activities is recognized as a financial asset, intangible asset, or both, as set forth below:

 

i.It is recognized as a financial asset to the extent that it has an unconditional contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset either because the government guarantees to pay specified or determinable amounts or because the government covers the shortfall between the amounts received, as concessionaire, from users of the public service and specified or determinable amounts. These financial assets are initially recognized at fair value, and, subsequently, at amortized cost (financial asset model).

 

ii.It is recognized as an intangible asset to the extent that the agreement provides the Corporation with a contractual right to charge users for public services rendered. The resulting intangible asset measured at cost is amortized as described in Note 2.M (intangible asset model).

 

iii.It is recognized as a financial asset and an intangible asset when the Corporation is paid partly by a financial asset and partly by an intangible asset (bifurcated model).

F. Financial instruments

 

i. Recognition and initial measurement

 

Trade accounts receivable are initially recognized when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized when the Corporation becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

 

A financial asset (unless it is a trade account receivable without a significant financing component) or financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. An account receivable without a significant financing component is initially measured at the transaction price.

 

ii. Classification and subsequent measurement

 

Financial assets

 

On initial recognition, assets are classified as measured at amortized cost or Fair Vale Through Profit and Loss (“FVTPL”). The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired based on the Company’s business model for managing the financial assets and the characteristics of the contractual cash flows of the financial asset.

 

Management determines the classification of its financial assets at the date of initial recognition and reevaluates this classification as of the date of each consolidated financial statement closing. As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, the Company only holds financial assets at amortized cost.

 

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met and is not measured at FVTPL:

 

-It is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
   
-Its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

 

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortized cost or fair value through other comprehensive income as described above are measured at FVTPL. This includes all derivative financial assets that are not cash flow hedge. On initial recognition, the Corporation may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch or recognition that would otherwise arise.

 

Subsequent measurement and gains and losses:

 

Financial assets at FVTPL

These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss.

   
Financial assets at amortized cost

These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses, and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss.

   
Debt investments at FVOCI These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognized in OCI. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss.

 

The Corporation classified its financial assets at amortized cost.

 

Financial liabilities

 

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, and are recognized in profit or loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest income and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognized in profit or loss.

iii. Derecognition

 

Financial assets

 

The Corporation derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred, or it neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control over the transferred asset.

 

The Corporation enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognized in its consolidated statement of financial position, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets. In these cases, the transferred assets are not derecognized.

 

Financial liabilities

 

The Corporation derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or canceled, or expire. The Corporation also derecognizes a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognized at fair value.

 

On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount extinguished and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss.

 

iv. Offsetting

 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset, and the net amount presented in the consolidated statement of financial position when, and only when, the Corporation currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

 

v. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

 

The Corporation considers a financial asset to be nonperforming when contractual payments are more than 365 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Corporation may consider a financial asset to be nonperforming when internal or external information indicates that it is unlikely that the contractual amounts due will be received before the Corporation executes the guarantees received. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.

 

Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value, and changes therein are generally recognized in profit or loss. The Corporation designates certain derivatives as hedging instruments to hedge the variability in cash flows associated with highly probable forecast transactions arising from changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates.

 

At inception of designated hedging relationships, the Corporation documents the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The Corporation also documents the economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument, including whether the changes in cash flows of the hedged item and hedging instrument are expected to offset each other.

 

As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, the Corporation does not hold derivative financial instruments.

G. Impairment

 

i. Financial assets

 

Financial instruments and contract assets

 

The Corporation considers a financial asset to be nonperforming when contractual payments are more than 365 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Corporation may consider a financial asset to be nonperforming when internal or external information indicates that it is unlikely that the Corporation will receive the contractual amounts due before the Company executes the guarantees received. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.

 

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments requires that expected credit losses be recorded for all financial assets, except those carried at FVTPL, estimating them over twelve months or over the lifetime of the financial instrument (“lifetime”). Under this standard, the Company applies the general approach for trade and other accounts receivable, which requires assessing whether credit risk has significantly increased to determine whether the loss shall be estimated based on 12 months after the reporting date or during the lifetime of the asset.

 

Loss allowances for trade receivables are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit loss (“ECL’s”). When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Corporation considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Corporation’s historical experience and informed credit assessment, loss of the time value of money and individual analysis of the clients (considering their geographical location).

 

At each reporting date, the Corporation assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit-impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.

 

Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:

 

significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;

 

a breach of contract such as a default or being more than 90 and 180 days past due;

 

it is probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization; or

 

the disappearance of an active market for a security because of financial difficulties.

 

For financial assets for which the Company has no reasonable expectation of recovering either all or a portion of the outstanding amount, the gross carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced. This is considered a (partial) derecognition of the financial asset.

 

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when the Corporation has no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. For individual customers and for corporate customers, the Corporation individually makes an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write-off based on whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Corporation expects no significant recovery from the amount written off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Corporation’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

ii. Non-financial assets

 

At each reporting date, the Corporation reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (other than investment property, inventories and deferred tax assets) to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are tested annually for impairment.

 

For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or Cash Generating Unit’s (“CGU”). Goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to CGU or group of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

 

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using an after-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount.

 

Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. They are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis.

 

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.

 

H. Cash and cash equivalents

 

In the consolidated statement of financial position and cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits with banks, other highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the consolidated statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are included in the balance of other financial liabilities as current liabilities.

 

I. Trade accounts receivable

 

Trade accounts receivable are amounts due from customers for goods or services sold by the Corporation. If any trade account receivable is expected to be collected within one year, it is classified as current; otherwise, it is classified as non-current.

 

Trade accounts receivable are initially recognized at transaction value, and subsequently, they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, except for trade accounts receivable of less than one year that are recorded at face value which is similar to their fair values due to their short-term maturity.

 

It includes Management’s estimates corresponding to collection rights for services performed but not yet invoiced and/or approved by client, which have been valued using the percentage of completion method. It corresponds mainly to the Engineering and Construction segment (subsidiaries Cumbra Peru S.A. and Cumbra Ingenieria S.A.). In the Infrastructure segment, concerning concessions, it corresponds to future collections for public services, mainly represented by unconditional contractual rights to be received from the Grantor under the financial asset model (Note 2.E)

 

J. Inventories

 

The inventories include land, work-in-progress and finished buildings related to the real estate activity, materials used in the construction activity, and supplies traded as part of the exploration and extraction activity.

 

i. Real Estate Activity

 

Land used for the execution of real estate projects is recognized at acquisition cost. Work-in-progress and finished real estate include the costs of design, materials, direct labor, borrowing costs (directly attributable to the acquisition, construction, production of the qualifying asset), other indirect costs, and general expenses related to the construction.

 

The lands used for real estate projects with launch date in future periods are presented as non-current asset.

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable selling expenses. Annually, the Corporation reviews whether inventories have been impaired identifying three groups of inventories to measure their net realizable value: i) land bought for future real estate projects which are compared to their appraisal value, if the acquisition value is higher, a provision for impairment is recognized; ii) land under construction: in this case impairment is measured based on cost projections; if these costs are higher than selling prices of each real estate unit, an estimate for impairment is recorded; and iii) finished real estate units: these inventory items are compared to the selling prices less commercialization costs; if they are higher, a provision for impairment is recorded.

 

For the reductions in the carrying amount of these inventories to their net realizable value, a provision is recognized for impairment of inventories with a charge to profit or loss for the year in which those reductions occur.

 

ii. Exploration and extraction activities

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of production costs and net realizable value (“NRV”), on the basis of the weighted average method. The NRV represents the value at which it is estimated to realize oil, gas and its derivatives LPG and Saturated Acyclic Hidrocarbons, which is calculated on the basis of international prices less the discounts usually granted. Miscellaneous supplies, materials, and spare parts are valued at the lower of cost and replacement value, based on the average method. The cost of inventories excludes financing expenses and exchange differences. Inventories in transit are recorded at cost, using the specific identification method.

 

The Corporation registered a provision for materials impairment to profit and loss for the cases in which book value exceeds recoverable value.

 

iii. Other activities

 

Materials and supplies are recorded at the lower of cost (by the weighted average method) and their replacement cost. The cost of these items includes freight and non-refundable applicable taxes.

 

Impairment of these items is estimated on the basis of specific analyses performed by Management on their turnover. If it is identified that the carrying amount of inventories of materials and supplies exceeds their replacement value, the difference is charged to profit or loss in the period in which this situation is determined.

 

Management considers that, as of the date of the consolidated financial statements, it is not necessary to record provisions additional to those recognized in the financial statements to cover losses due to obsolescence of these inventories.

 

K. Investment properties

 

Investment properties are shown at cost less their accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Subsequent costs attributable to investment properties are capitalized only if it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the Company and the cost of these assets can be measured reliably; otherwise, they are recognized as expenses when incurred.

 

Maintenance and repair expenses are recognized in profit or loss in the period when they are incurred. If the carrying amount of a property is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, it is immediately reduced to its recoverable amount.

 

Depreciation is calculated under the straight-line method at a rate that is considered sufficient to absorb the cost of assets at the end of the useful life and considering their significant components, with substantially different useful lives (each component is accounted for separately for depreciation purposes and is depreciated over its separate useful life). The estimated useful lives of those properties range from 5 to 50 years.

 

These investment properties have been leased under operating leases to third parties.

 

L. Property, plant, and equipment

 

i. Recognition and measurement

 

These assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated losses, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of these items.

 

Assets under construction are capitalized as a separate component. Upon completion, the cost of these assets is transferred to their definitive category. Replacement units are assets whose depreciation begins when units are installed for use within the related asset.

 

ii. Subsequent expenditure

 

Subsequent expenditures are included in the carrying amount of the asset or they are recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the Corporation, or are likely to extend the estimated useful life of the asset, and the cost of these assets can be measured reliably. Maintenance and repair expenses are presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss in the period when incurred.

iii. Depreciation

 

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful life of the asset. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

 

  Years
Buildings and premises 3 to 50
Machinery and equipment 2 to 20
Vehicles 2 to 10
Furniture and fixtures 2 to 10
Other equipment 2 to 10

 

Depreciation of machinery and equipment, and vehicles recognized as “Major equipment” is calculated based on their hours of use. Under this method, the total number of hours that the machinery and equipment can operate is estimated and an hourly value is established.

 

The residual value and the useful life of an asset are reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, at year-end. Profit or loss for the sale of assets are recognized in ‘Other income and expenses’ in the statement of profit or loss. Regarding joint operations that carry out construction activities, the difference between the proceeds from disposals of fixed assets and their carrying amount is shown within ‘Revenue from construction activities’ and ‘cost of construction activities’, respectively.

 

M. Intangible assets

 

i. Goodwill

 

Goodwill arises on the acquisition of subsidiaries and represents the excess of the purchase consideration, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the net identifiable assets. If the purchase consideration, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the acquired subsidiary, then the difference is recognized in the statement profit or loss.

 

Goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to each cash-generating unit (CGU), or group of CGUs, that are expected to benefit from the business combination. Goodwill is monitored at the operating segment level.

 

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually or more often if there is evidence of impairment. Any impairment is recognized as an expense in ‘Other income and expenses’ and cannot be reversed later.

 

ii. Trademarks

 

Separately acquired trademarks are shown at historical cost. Trademarks acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Management has determined that these trademarks have indefinite useful lives.

 

The trademark is tested for impairment at least annually or more often if there is evidence of impairment. Any impairment is recognized as an expense in ‘Other income and expenses, net’. The carrying amount written off due to impairment is reviewed at each reporting date to verify possible reversals of the impairment and is recognized in ‘Other income and expenses’.

 

iii. Concession rights

 

The intangible asset related to the right to charge users for the services covered by the concession (Notes 2.E and F) is initially recorded at the fair value of construction or improvement services and, prior to the beginning of amortization, an impairment test is performed; it is amortized using the straight-line method, from the date revenue from services starts using the effective period of the concession agreement.

 

iv. Contractual customer relationships

 

Contractual customer relationships are assets resulting from business combinations that were initially recognized at fair value, determined on the basis of the present value of the expected net cash flows from such relationships, over a period of time based on the estimated customer tenure (the estimation of useful life is based on the contract terms which fluctuates between 5 and 9 years). The useful life and the estimate of impairment of these assets are individually assessed.

 

v. Cost of well development

 

Costs incurred during the development phase associated with the preparation of the wells for the extraction of hydrocarbons from the lots located in Talara, are capitalized as part of intangible assets. These costs are amortized over the useful lives of the wells (estimated in remaining periods for Lots I and V and the unit-of-production method for Lots III and IV), until the end of the term of the contracts with Perupetro. The Lot I contract expired in 2021 and Lot V contract will expire in 2023.

The Corporation has established the Successful Efforts Method as its policy for the recognition and evaluation of exploration oil assets. During 2021, an exploratory well was drilled in Block IV, obtaining successful results. In 2022, no exploratory well drilling activities were carried out.

 

vi. Software

 

Software development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique software controlled by the Corporation are recognized as intangible assets when the following criteria are met:

 

it is technically feasible to complete the software so that it will be available for use;

 

Management has the intention to complete the software and use or sell it;

 

there is an ability to use or sell the software;

 

it can be demonstrated that the software is likely to generate future economic benefits;

 

the technical, financial and other resources necessary to complete the development of the software to enable its use or sale are available; and

 

expenses attributable to the software during its development can be reliably measured.

 

Other development costs that do not meet these recognition criteria are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Development costs previously recognized as an expense are not recognized as an asset in a subsequent period. Software development costs recognized as assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 2 to 12 years.

 

vii. Surface rights

 

It refers to the rights held by the subsidiary Promotora Larcomar S.A. Land use rights are stated at historical cost less amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. The useful life of the surface rights is 60 years according to the signed contract and may be extended if agreed by parties. Amortization will begin when it becomes ready for its intended use by Management.

 

N. Trade accounts payable

 

Trade accounts payable are obligations to pay for goods or services acquired from suppliers in the ordinary course of business. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is to be made in a year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if it is higher); otherwise, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

 

Accounts payable are initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently, they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except for trade accounts payable of less than one year that are recorded at face value which is similar to their fair values due to their short-term maturity.

 

O. Financial liabilities at FVTPL

 

Financial liabilities designated at initial recognition at FVTPL are designated at the initial recognition date, and only if the criteria of IFRS 9 are met. The Corporation does not maintain financial liabilities at fair value.

 

P. Other financial liabilities

 

They correspond to loans and bonds issued by the Corporation, which are initially recognized at their fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. These financial liabilities are subsequently recorded at amortized cost. Any resulting difference between the funds received (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the statement of profit or loss during the loan term using the effective interest method.

 

Costs incurred to obtain these financial liabilities are recognized as transaction costs to the extent that it is probable that a part or the whole loan will be received. In this case, these charges defer until the loan is received.

 

Q. Borrowing costs

 

Borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they have been incurred, except for intangible assets and inventories in which the borrowing costs are capitalized.

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisitions, construction or development of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time (more than twelve months) to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. The Corporation suspends the capitalization of borrowing costs during the periods in which the development of activities of a qualifying asset has been suspended. The income obtained from the temporary investment of specific borrowings that have not yet been invested in qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.

 

R. Current and deferred income tax

 

Income tax of the period comprise current and deferred income tax. Tax is recognized in the statement of profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in the statement of other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognized in the statement of other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

 

The current tax is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted at the date of the statement of financial position in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management, where applicable, makes provisions on the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

 

A provision is recognized for those matters for which the determination of taxes is uncertain, but it is considered probable that there will be a future outflow of economic resources to a tax authority. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amount expected to be paid. The assessment is based on the tax judgment of professionals within the Company supported by prior experience in relation to such activities and in certain cases based on specialized independent tax advice.

 

Deferred income tax is recognized on temporary differences arising from tax basis of assets and liabilities, and their balances in consolidated financial statements. A deferred income tax asset is only recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available, against which temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates and legislation enacted as of the date of the consolidated statement of financial position that are expected to be applied when the deferred tax is realized or paid. A deferred tax asset is only recognized so far as it is probable that there would be future tax benefits against which temporary differences can be utilized.

 

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except for deferred tax liability where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Corporation and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax arising from the initial recognition of goodwill is not recognized; likewise, the deferred tax is not recorded if it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination that does not affect the accounting or tax profit or loss at the time of the transaction.

 

S. Employee benefits

 

The Corporation recognizes a liability when the employee has rendered services in exchange for which is entitled to receive future payments and an expense when the Corporation has consumed the economic benefit from the service rendered by the employee in exchange for the benefits in question.

 

The Corporation determines employee benefits in accordance with current labor and legal regulations and classifies them as short-term benefits, long-term benefits, and termination benefits.

 

Short-term benefits are those other than severance indemnities, the payment of which is settled in the twelve months following the end of the period in which the employees have rendered their services; they correspond to current compensation (wages, salaries, and social health contributions), annual and sick leave, profit sharing and incentives and other non-monetary benefits.

 

Long-term benefits are those benefits to be paid more than twelve months after the end of the period in which the services have been rendered. As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, the Corporation did not grant benefits under this category.

Termination benefits are those benefits payable as a result of: (i) the entity’s decision to terminate the employee’s contract before the retirement date, and (ii) the employee’s decision to voluntarily accept the termination of the employment relationship.

 

i. Short-term benefits

 

Current compensation

 

Current compensation consists of wages, salaries, social health contributions, legal bonuses and compensation for length of service (CTS, for its Spanish acronym). Wages, salaries and social health contributions are paid monthly based on the consideration for services rendered.

 

The Corporation entities recognizes the expense for legal bonuses and their related liabilities under laws and regulations currently in force in Peru, Chile, and Colombia. In Peru, legal bonuses correspond to two monthly payments which are accrued based on the consideration for the service. There are no legal bonuses in Chile; in Colombia, it is called service bonus and corresponds to a monthly remuneration per year.

 

Compensation for length of service (CTS) corresponds to the employee’s indemnity rights which are accrued based on the consideration for the service rendered calculated in accordance with the legislation in force in each country where the entities comprising the Corporation operate. They are determined as follows: (i) in Peru, it is equivalent to half the compensation in force at the date of payment and is made through deposit in bank accounts designated by the workers in the months of May and November of each year; (ii) in Colombia, it is equivalent to 8.33% of the monthly remuneration, and (iii) in Chile this benefit is not available.

 

Annual paid absences

 

Personnel’s annual vacations are recognized on an accrual basis. The provision for estimated liability corresponding to personnel’s annual vacations, resulting from services rendered by the employees, is recorded on the date of the statement of financial position and corresponds to: (i) one month for personnel in Peru, (ii) fifteen days for personnel in Colombia, and (iii) in the case of Chile, they are subject to the worker’s seniority and range from fifteen to thirty days.

 

Profit sharing and incentives

 

The workers’ profit sharing is determined on the basis of the legal provisions in force in each country where the entities of the Corporation operate, as follows: (i) in Peru, it is equivalent to 5% of the taxable base determined by each Company of the Corporation, in accordance with current income tax legislation, (ii) in Chile, workers’ profit sharing is a component of the remuneration (equivalent to 4.75 minimum wages per year) or 10% of the profit, to be determined by the employer, (iii) in Colombia, these benefits are not provided to employees.

 

ii.Termination benefits

 

The Corporation entities recognize liabilities and expenses for severance indemnities when they occur, based on the legal provisions in force in each country. Under Peruvian law, compensation for arbitrary dismissal for personnel with indefinite-term contracts is 1.5 times the monthly compensation for each year worked, up to a maximum of twelve monthly compensations.

 

Under Colombian legislation, for the first year worked, the equivalent of 30 days of salary is granted, and from the second year on, the compensation will be the equivalent of 20 days of salary for each additional year (or the proportion); under the legislation of Chile, the employee receives a compensation of thirty days of monthly salary for each year worked with a maximum of 330 days.

 

T. Other provisions

 

Provisions are recognized when the Corporation has a present obligation, either legal or constructive, as a result of past events, and when it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and it is possible to reliably estimate its amount. Provisions are reviewed at the end of each period. If the time value of money is significant, provisions are discounted using a pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, specific risks of liabilities. The reversal of the discount due to the passage of time results in an increase of the obligation which is recognized with a charge to the statement of profit or loss as a finance cost.

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

Contingent obligations are disclosed when their existence will only be confirmed as a result of future events or when the amount cannot be measured reliably. Contingent assets are not recognized and are disclosed only if it is probable that the Corporation will generate economic benefits in the future.

 

Provision for the closure of oil production wells

 

Subsidiary Unna Energia S.A. recognizes a provision for the closure of operating units that correspond to the legal obligation to close oil production wells once the production phase has been completed. At the initial date of recognition, the liability that arises from said obligation is measured at fair value and discounted to present value, following the valuation techniques established in IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement; accordingly, the same amount is simultaneously charged to the intangible account in the statement of financial position.

 

Subsequently, the liability will increase in each period to reflect the financial cost considered in the initial measurement of the discount, and the capitalized cost will be depreciated based on the useful life of the related asset. When a liability is settled, the subsidiary recognizes any gain or loss that may arise. The fair value changes estimated for the initial obligation and interest rates are recognized as an increase or decrease in the carrying amount of the obligation and related asset, according to IFRIC 1 Changes in Existing Decommissioning, Restoration and Similar Liabilities. Any reduction in this provision, and therefore, any reduction in the related assets which exceeds the carrying amount of the asset, will be immediately recognized in the statement of comprehensive income.

 

If the review of the obligation resulted in the need to increase the provision, and as a result, the carrying amount of the related asset also increases, the subsidiary takes into account whether this increase corresponds to an indication that the asset has become impaired and if so, impairment tests will be conducted (Note 2.G).

 

U. Put option arrangement

 

In the case of a put option contract on the equity of a subsidiary that allows the shareholder to reallocate its shares in a certain period, the amount payable under the option is initially recognized at the present value of the reimbursement under ‘Other accounts payable’, directly charged to equity. The charge to equity is recorded separately as put options subscribed on the non-controlling interest.

 

Subsequently, the financial liability is updated by changes in the assumptions on which the estimation of the expected cash flows is based and by the financial component due to the passage of time. The effects of this update are recognized in profit and loss.

 

In 2021, Cumbra Peru S.A. acquired the entire non-controlling interest of the subsidiary Morelco S.A.S. As of December 31, 2022, Cumbra Peru S.A. the liability was totally paid.

 

V. Capital

 

Common shares are classified as equity and are determined using the par value of the shares that have been issued.

 

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction of the received amount, net of taxes.

 

W. Revenue from contracts with customers

 

Revenues from contracts with customers are recognized, for each performance obligation, either during a period of time or at a point in time, depending on which method best reflects the transfer of control of the underlying products or services to the obligation of particular performance with the customer.

 

The Corporation recognizes the revenue through the application of the five steps defined in the regulations: i) identifying the contract with the customer; ii) identifying performance obligations in the contract; iii) determining the transaction price; iv) allocating the transaction price to performance obligations; and v) recognizing revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The following describes the Corporation’s policy of recognition for each type of revenue in line with IFRS 15:

 

i. Engineering and construction

 

Revenues from engineering and construction (E&C) contracts are recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Corporation’s performance, the Corporation’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; and the Corporation’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use. For these reason, the Corporation accounts for revenue over time by measuring the progress towards complete satisfaction of its performance obligations under each contract.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

The Corporation applies the output method to measure the physical percentage-of-completion which is based on surveys of projects performance by the Corporation’s experts. The Corporation considers this method depicts the transfer of control of the goods or services to the customers, as it reflects also an enforceable right to payment by the Corporation for work performed to date.

 

The Corporation assesses whether one or more of the following factors has been satisfied: a) the contract, applicable law or other evidence provides a legal basis for the modification; b) additional costs were caused by circumstances that were unforeseen on the date of execution of the contract and not a result of deficiencies incurred by the Corporation’s performance; c) modification-related costs are identifiable and considered reasonable in view of the work performed; or d) evidence supporting the modification is objective and verifiable. When one or more of the foregoing factors is satisfied, the changes to the rights and obligations in the contract modification are considered by the Corporation to be enforceable.

 

The nature of some contracts, such as cost plus fee contracts, unit price contracts or similar contracts give rise to variable consideration that may include reimbursable costs, incentives and penalties. To include variable consideration related to a contract modification in the estimated transaction price, the Corporation must conclude that it is “highly probable” that a significant revenue reversal will not occur. The Corporation determines the likelihood of revenue reversal occurring (and therefore whether such price will be recovered) based on an analysis of whether any of the following factors are present: i) contractual entitlement; ii) past practice with the customer; iii) specific discussions or preliminary negotiations with the customer; or iv) verbal approval by the customer. If, as a result of such analysis, the Corporation concludes that it is “highly probable” that there will not be a significant reversal of the amount of revenue recognized, it recognizes the variable consideration relating to the contract modification. When the benefit of the contract cannot be reliably estimated, the associated revenue is recognized to the extent that the costs incurred are recoverable. Revenue is invoiced upon receipt of customer approval.

 

When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed the related revenue, the expected loss is recognized immediately.

 

The Corporation estimates the amount of revenue to be recognized as variable consideration using judgments and estimates to determine the most probable value, which is expected to best predict the amount of consideration to which the Corporation will be entitled.

 

ii. Real-estate

 

Sale of real estate - urban and industrial lots

 

Revenue from real estate sale contracts is recognized when control over the property has been transferred to the client with the delivery record. Revenue is measured based on the price agreed under the contract. Until this is met, the revenue received will be counted as customer advances. These sales contracts have two performance obligations: i) the one corresponding to the transfer of the property, which includes the common areas of the building where these real estates are located, and ii) the one corresponding to the transfer of the common area outside the real estate assets but that are part of the real estate projects, which are recognized when the common area has been delivered.

 

Sale of urban lots

 

Revenue related to sales of urban lots is recognized when control over the property is transferred to the customer. Until this is met, the revenue received will be counted as customer advances. Revenue is measured based on the transaction price agreed under the contract. These sales contracts have a single performance obligation for the sale of lots, which is executed upon delivery of the sale of the assets.

Sale of industrial lots

 

Revenue related to sales of industrial lots is recognized when control over the property has been transferred to the customer. Until this is met, the revenue received will be counted as customer advances. These sales contracts have two performance obligations: i) transfer of the industrial lot and ii) urban authorization of the industrial lot.

 

iii. Energy

 

Revenues from services rendered for oil and gas extraction, storage and dispatch of fuels and other services

 

Revenues from the rendering of oil and gas extraction, fuel storage and dispatch and other services rendered are recognized when the full specific service is provided, calculating the service actually provided as a portion of the total services to be provided. This type of revenue has a single performance obligation, that is performed when the service is provided at a point in time.

 

Revenues from sale of oil and oil byproducts

 

Revenue from the sale of oil and byproducts is recognized when the control of the assets is transferred to the customer, which is when the goods are delivered. In this type of revenue, there is a single performance obligation for the sale of oil and byproducts which is enforced at the delivery of the goods.

 

iv. Infrastructure

 

Revenue from concession services

 

Revenue from concession services corresponds to operation and maintenance services and is recognized according to its nature in the period in which the service is provided. In this type of revenue, there is a single performance obligation, enforced when the service is provided.

 

Revenues from toll collection

Revenues generated by Red Vial 5 S.A. from toll collection through vehicle control booths are grouped in three different toll stations, located along the Ancon - Huacho - Pativilca road sections. This type of transactions are recognized at a point of time due to the control is transferred to the time of toll collection.

 

X. Cost and expense recognition

 

Engineering and construction contracts

 

Contract costs include all the incurred direct costs such as materials, labor, subcontracting costs, manufacturing and supply costs of equipment, start-up costs, depreciation and amortization, and indirect costs. Periodically, the Company evaluates the reasonableness of the estimates used in the determination of the total estimated contract cost of the contract. If, as a result of this evaluation, the total estimated cost of the project exceeds expected revenues, an adjustment is made in order to reflect onerous contract and the corresponding effect in profit or loss of the period in which the loss is incurred.

 

Cost for sale of oil and byproducts

 

The costs of services provided, and the costs of sales of oil and byproducts are recognized when incurred, which in this case are incurred at the same time that related revenue is recognized. Other costs and expenses are recognized as they accrue, regardless of the moment when they are paid, and are recorded in the accounting periods to which they relate.

 

Cost for concession operation services

 

The costs for operation and maintenance services are recognized when incurred, at the same time that related revenue is recognized. Other costs and expenses are recognized as they accrue, regardless of the moment when they are paid, and are recorded in the accounting periods to which they relate.

 

Y. Leases

 

Lease contracts are analyzed for the purpose of identifying those containing the characteristics specified in IFRS 16 Leases for recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure.

 

24

 

 

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

The Corporation evaluates in every lease contract the following:

 

If it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset;

 

If the contract term is longer that twelve months;

 

If the underlying asset amount is a material amount, and,

 

That the fees to be paid are not entirely variable.

 

Leases in which the Corporation is a lessee

 

The Corporation recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date.

 

The right-of-use asset is initially measured at the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred. The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term. The term of the lease includes the periods covered by an option to extend the contract if the Corporation is reasonably sure to exercise that option.

 

The lease liability is the total unpaid installments, measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Corporation’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if the Corporation changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option. When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset.

 

In the engineering and construction segment, interest expenses related to leasing contracts of the core business are reported in gross margin; the rest of the Corporation segments reports them in finance expenses.

 

Operating cash flows will be greater since cash payments for the main portion of the lease debt are classified within the financing activities. Only the portion of the payments that reflects interest can continue to be presented as operating cash flows.

 

Leases in which the Corporation is a lessor

 

Operating leases and assets are included in the consolidated statement of financial position according to the nature of the asset. Revenues from operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease agreement and the incentives granted to lessees are reduced from rental income. Accordingly, the Corporation, as lessor, has not changed the recognition of its leases.

 

Z. Dividend distribution

 

Dividend distribution to the shareholders is recognized as a liability in the financial statements in the period in which dividends are approved.

AA. Immaterial corrections of previously reported balances as of December 31, 2021

 

In connection with the preparation of its consolidated financial statements, the Corporation identified an error in the interpretation and application of the accounting treatment of revenue and cost recognition arising from contracts with customers in the engineering and construction segment in prior years. Management of the Corporation has evaluated and concluded that the correction of this error has resulted in non-material adjustment to the net income previously reported in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021. It should be noted that the aforementioned adjustments had no impact on total cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities.

 

A reconciliation between the previously reported amounts and the revised amounts as of December 31, 2021, and for the year then ended is presented below:

(a)As discussed in Note 2.W, revenue from engineering and construction contracts is recognized over time as the Corporation fulfills its obligations, as there is a continuous transfer of control of the deliverable to the customer and revenue is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method for each contract through the date of the consolidated financial statements.

 

Revenue from additional work resulting from a modification or instruction received from the customer to make a change in the scope of work, price, or both will result in an increase in contract revenue which is also recognized using the percentage-of-completion method when the Corporation concludes that it is highly probable that there will not be a significant reversal of such revenue. Before the immaterial correction, the Corporation recognized a lower proportion of this additional revenue at the date of the consolidated financial statements depending on the status or stage in the process of obtaining formal, written approval for the additional work. After the immaterial correction, the Corporation recognized additional revenue based on the percentage of completion of the additional work, as long as the Corporation can conclude from its dealings with its clients that it is highly probable that there will not be a significant reversal of such revenue.

 

(b) Before the immaterial correction, the Corporation presented the net position of construction contracts as either an asset or a liability. The contract was considered an asset when the gross margin earned at the measurement date was less than the Corporation’s estimated gross margin at contract completion. This asset was presented as “Work in progress”.

A. Financial risk factors

 

The Corporation’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risks (including currency risk, price risk, fair-value and cash-flow interest rate risks), credit risk, and liquidity risk.

 

The Corporation’s general program for risk management is mainly focused on financial market unpredictability and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Corporation’s financial performance.

 

(a) Market risk

 

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices. Market prices involve four types of risk: interest rate risk, exchange rate risk, commodity price risk and other price risks. Financial instruments affected by market risk include bank deposits, trade accounts receivable, other accounts receivable, other financial liabilities, bonds, trade accounts payable, other accounts payable and accounts receivable from and payable to related parties.

 

(i) Currency risk

 

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will be reduced by adverse fluctuations in exchange rates. Management is responsible for identifying, measuring, controlling and reporting the exposure to foreign exchange risk.

 

The Corporation is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from local transactions in foreign currencies and from its foreign operations. As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, this exposure is focused mainly on fluctuations of the U.S. dollar, Chilean peso, and Colombian peso. The Corporation’s management monitors this risk by analyzing the country’s macroeconomic variables.

 

The balances of financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies correspond to balances in U.S. Dollars, Chilean pesos and Colombian pesos, which are stated exchange rate published on that date, according to the currency type:

 

   As of

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

The consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, includes the following balances:

 

In thousands of US dollars  2021   2022 
Assets        
Cash and cash equivalents   119,627    58,280 
Trade accounts receivable, net   92,016    124,593 
Accounts receivable from related parties   219,209    276,048 
Other accounts receivable   87,742    75,536 
    518,594    534,457 
Liabilities          
Borrowings   (101,975)   (215,076)
Bonds   (95,022)   (5,569)
Trade accounts payable   (123,128)   (119,104)
Accounts payable to related parties   (81,799)   (133,745)
Other accounts payable   (60,821)   (88,012)
Other provisions   (29,641)   (42,241)
    (492,386)   (603,747)

 

The Corporation assumes foreign exchange risk because it does not use derivative financial instruments to mitigate exchange rate fluctuations.

 

For the periods ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, the Corporation’s exchange gains and losses for the exposure of U.S. Dollar, the Chilean peso, and the Colombian peso against the Peruvian Sol was, (Note 26.A):

 

In thousands of soles        2021   2022 
Gain      383,199    449,864 
Loss      (430,410)   (450,133)
    (47,211)   (269)

 

If, as of December 31, 2022, the U.S. Dollars, the Chilean peso, and the Colombian peso had been strengthened/weakened by 5% against the Peruvian Sol, the pre-tax profit or loss for the year would have an impact equivalent to S/13 thousand (S/ 2.7 million in 2021). If, as of December 31, 2022, the U.S. Dollars, the Chilean peso, and the Colombian peso had been strengthened/weakened by 10% against the Peruvian Sol, the pre-tax profit or loss for the year would have an impact equivalent to S/27 thousand (S/ 4.7 million in 2021).

 

The consolidated statement of changes in equity comprises a foreign currency translation adjustment originated by its subsidiaries. The consolidated statement of financial position includes the following assets and liabilities in its currency (in thousands):

 

   2021   2022 
   Assets   Liabilities   Assets   Liabilities 

Chilean Pesos

   72,776,160    93,740,228    60,684,971    81,864,810 

Colombian Pesos

   59,773,077    31,057,046    96,944,436    59,114,296 

 

The Corporation’s foreign currency translation adjustment in 2022 was negative by S/20.9 million (negative by S/ 5 million in 2021).

 

(ii) Price risk

 

The Corporation is exposed to the risk of hydrocarbon price fluctuations which impacts on the selling price of the products that it commercializes, which are significantly affected by changes in global economic conditions, resource availability, and the cycles of related industries. Management considers reasonable these possible fluctuations in the hydrocarbons prices, based in the Corporation´s economic market environment.

 

If, as of December 31, 2022, the oil price had increased/decreased by 5%, the pre-tax profit for the year would have increased/decreased by S/ 28.4 million and S/ 29.8 million (S/42.3 million and S/39.7 million in 2021). This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant. If, as of December 31, 2022, the oil price had increased/decreased by 10%, the pre-tax profit for the year would have increased/decreased by S/ 56.4 million and S/ 62 million (S/88.9 million and S/78.6 million in 2021).

(iii)Fair-value and cash-flow interest rate risk

 

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates.

 

The Corporation’s interest rate risk arises mainly from its long-term financial liabilities. Variable rate long-term financial liabilities expose the Corporation to cash-flow interest rate risk. Fixed-rate financial liabilities expose the Corporation to fair-value interest rate risk.

 

The Corporation assumes the interest rate risk, due to they do not use financial derivative instruments for mitigate variations in the interest rate risk.

 

The sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates is shown below. With all other variables held constant, the Corporation’s income before income taxes would be affected by the impact on variable rate borrowings. For the period ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 the impact on income before income taxes on a 10% increase or decrease amounts to approximately S/2.5 million and S/2.6 million, respectively (S/2 million and S/2.1 million, respectively, in 2021). The assumed movement in basis points related to the interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the current market environment.

 

(b) Credit risks

 

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or commercial contract, resulting in a financial loss.

 

Credit risk for the Corporation arises from its operating activities due to credit exposure to customers and from its financial activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions, and other financial instruments. The maximum exposure to credit risk for the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 is represented by the sum of cash and cash equivalents (Note 9), trade accounts receivable (Note 10), other accounts receivable (Note 12) and accounts receivable from related parties (Note 11).

 

Customer credit risk is managed by Management subject to the Corporation’s established policies, procedures and control related to customer credit risk management. The credit quality of a customer is assessed based on an extensive credit rating scorecard and individual credit limits are defined based on this assessment. The maximum credit risk exposure at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed in Note 10.

 

The Corporation assesses the concentration of risk with respect to trade accounts receivable as low risk because sales are not concentrated in small customer groups and no customers account for 10% or more of the Corporation’s revenues.

 

Management monitors the credit risk of other receivables on an ongoing basis and assesses those receivables that show evidence of impairment to determine the required allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

Concerning loans to related parties, the Corporation has measures in place to ensure the recovery of these loans through the controls maintained by the Corporate Finance Management and the performance evaluation conducted by the Board of Directors (Note 11).

 

Management does not expect the Corporation to incur any losses from the performance of these counterparties, except for the ones already recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

 

(c) Liquidity risk

 

Prudent liquidity risk management implies holding enough cash and cash equivalent, and financing available through a proper number of credit sources, and the ability to close positions in the market. Historically, the Corporation’s cash flows from operations have enabled it to meet its obligations. The Corporation has implemented various actions to reduce its exposure to liquidity risk and has developed a Financial Plan based on several steps, which were designed with a commitment to compliance within a reasonable period of time. The Financial Plan is intended to meet the various obligations at the Company and Corporation entities levels.

 

The Corporate Finance Office monitors the cash flow projections made on liquidity requirements of the Corporation to ensure it exists sufficient cash to meet operational needs so that the Corporation does not breach borrowing limits or covenants, where applicable, on any of its borrowing facilities. Less significant financing transactions are controlled by the Finance Management of each subsidiary.

Such forecasting takes into consideration the Corporation’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance, compliance with ratio targets in the statement of financial position and, if applicable, with external regulatory or legal requirements.

 

Cash surplus on the amounts required for the administration of working capital are invested in checking accounts that generate interest and time deposits, selecting instruments with appropriate maturities or sufficient liquidity.

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Company has significant current payment obligations arising from the Collaboration and Benefits Agreement (Note 1.C) and the Bridge Loan (Note 17.A.i). For this purpose, Management is developing a financial plan with the aim of covering the short-term part of these obligations.

B. Capital management

 

The Corporation’s objective in managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as going concern in order to generate returns to its shareholders, benefits to stakeholders, and keep an optimal capital structure to reduce capital cost. Since 2017, due to the situation of the Corporation, Management has monitored deviations that might cause the non-compliance of covenants and may hinder renegotiation of liabilities (Note 17.A). In special situations and events, the Corporation identifies potential deviations, requirements and establishes a plan.

The Corporation may adjust the amount of dividends payable to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce its debt to maintain or adjust the capital structure.

 

The Corporation monitors its capital based on the leverage ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by the sum of net debt plus equity. The net debt corresponds to the total financial liabilities (including current and non-current indebtedness) adding the provision for civil compensation less cash and cash equivalents.

 

As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, the leverage ratio is as follows:

 

In thousands of soles  Note  2021   2022 
Total borrowing, bonds and civil compensation (*)  17 and 18   2,326,903    2,238,699

Net debt (a)      1,369,725    1,321,145 
Total equity (b)      1,456,010    1,346,006 
Total net debt plus equity (a) + (b)      2,825,735    2,667,151 
Gearing ratio      0.48    0.50 

 

(*)The provision for civil compensation is included in other provisions (Note 21).

 

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, there were no changes in the objectives, policies or processes related to capital management.

 

5. Use of Judgments and Estimates

 

The estimates and judgments used are continuously evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including the reasonable expectation of occurrence of future events depending on the circumstances.

 

A. Significant accounting estimates and criteria

 

The Corporation makes estimates and assumptions regarding the future. Resulting accounting estimates very rarely will be the same as the actual results. The following are the estimates and assumptions that have significant risk as to produce a material adjustment to the balances of assets and liabilities for next periods.

 

i. Impairment testing of goodwill and other finite useful-life fixed assets and indefinite useful-life intangible assets

 

Impairment testing is undertaken annually to determine if goodwill arising from business acquisitions and other useful-life indefinite intangible assets are impaired, in accordance with the policy described in Note 2.G. For this purpose, goodwill is allocated to the different CGUs to which it relates while other indefinite useful-life intangible assets are assessed individually.

 

The recoverable amounts of the CGU and of other indefinite useful-life intangible assets have been determined based on the higher of their value-in-use or fair value less costs to sell. This testing requires the exercise of Management’s professional judgment to analyze any potential indicators of impairment such as the use of estimates in determining the value in use, including preparing future cash flows, macro-economic forecasts as well as defining the interest rate at which said cash flows will be discounted.

 

If the Corporation experiences a significant drop in revenues or a drastic increase in costs or changes in other factors, the fair value of their business units might decrease. If Management determines that the factors reducing the fair value of the business units are permanent, those economic factors will be taken into consideration to determine the recoverable amount of those business units and therefore, goodwill, as well as other indefinite useful-life intangible assets may be deemed to be impaired, which could result in write-off being necessary.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

As a result of these evaluations, as of December 31, 2021 and 2022, no provision for goodwill impairment was identified (Note 16.A) and; as of December 31, 2022, the Corporation recognized impairment of the Vial y Vives-DSD brands for S/2.5 million; however, no provision was identified for the Morelco brand. In 2021, no impairment was identified for these brands (Note 16.B).

 

As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, the Corporation conducted a sensitivity analysis increasing or decreasing the assumptions of gross margin, discount rate, and revenue and terminal growth rate by 10% (this percentage corresponds to the relevant evaluation range for management). This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant.

  

Goodwill

 

In 2022, if the gross margin, discount rate, and perpetual growth rate were 10% below or above management’s estimates, collectively and/or independently, the Corporation would not have had to recognize a provision for impairment of goodwill of UGE Engineering and Construction (Morelco) because its fair value would have increased or decreased by S/13.5 million.

 

In 2021, if the gross margin and discount rate were 10% below or above management’s estimates, in the aggregate and/or independently, the Corporation would have had to recognize an impairment provision for goodwill of UGE Ingeniería y construcción (Morelco) within the range of S/4.6 million and S/15 million.

 

Trademarks

 

In 2022, if the revenue growth rate, discount rate and perpetual growth rate were 10% below or above management’s estimates, in the aggregate and/or independently, the Corporation would have had to recognize an impairment provision for the Vial y Vives-DSD brands in the range of S/3.1 million and S/3.9 million, and for the Morelco brand, the Corporation would not have had to recognize an impairment provision because its fair value would have increased or decreased in the range of S/2.1 million and S/16.1 million.

 

In 2021, if the revenue growth rate, discount rate and perpetual growth rate were 10% below or above management’s estimates, in the aggregate and/or independently, the Corporation would have had to recognize an impairment provision for the Vial y Vives-DSD brand in the range of S/3 million and S/3.1 million; and for the Morelco brand, the Corporation would not have had to recognize an impairment provision because its fair value would have increased or decreased in the range of S/10.2 million and S/11.4 million.

ii. Taxation

 

Determination of the tax obligations and expenses requires interpretations of the applicable tax legislation. The Corporation has professional advice on legal tax matters before making any decision on tax matters.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated based on the temporary differences arising between the taxable basis of assets and liabilities and the respective amounts stated in the financial statements of each entity comprising the Corporation, using the tax rates in effect in each of the years in which the difference is expected to reverse. Any change in tax rates will affect the deferred tax assets and liabilities. This change will be recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss in the period in which the change takes effect.

 

Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which temporary differences and tax losses can be used. For this purpose, the Corporation takes into consideration all available information, including factors such as historical data, projected income, current operations, and tax planning strategies. A tax benefit related to a tax position is only recognized if the benefit will be realized.

 

The income tax for the year includes Management’s evaluation of the amount of taxes to be paid in uncertain tax positions, where the liabilities have not yet been agreed with the tax administration. The Corporation’s possible maximum exposure to tax contingency amounts to S/ 310.98 million.

 

iii. Percentage of completion revenue recognition

 

Revenue from services based on construction contracts are recognized by the percentage of completion method, according to the output method (Note 2.W.i). The Corporation needs to estimate the cost to be obtained upon completion of the work. Projections of these costs are determined by Management based on their execution budgets and adjusted periodically in order to use updated information to reflect actual performance in the work. In this regard, Management believes that the estimates made at the end of the year are reasonable.

 

Contract revenues are recognized as such in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and the costs related to the construction contract are recognized as Costs of Construction in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income in the accounting periods in which the project was executed. Costs directly related to a specific contract include: labor costs at the construction site (including construction supervision), costs of materials used in construction, depreciation costs of equipment used in the contract, design and technical assistance costs directly related to the contract, among others (Note 2.X). However, any expected and likely cost overruns related to the contract over total expected income under the contract is recognized as expense immediately. In addition, any change in the estimates under the contract is recognized as a change in accounting estimates in the period in which the change is made and future periods, if applicable. In certain construction contracts, the terms of these agreements allow to retain an amount to customers until construction is completed.

 

As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, a sensitivity analysis was performed considering a 10% increase/decrease in the construction margins in the following sectors: i) buildings, ii) energy, iii) industry, iv) infrastructure, v) mining, vi) oil & gas, vii) water and sewage, and viii) various services, as shown below:

 

   2021   2022 
Revenue   2,467,477    2,451,067 
Gross profit   93,995    (14,212)
%   3.81    0.58 
Plus 10%   4.19    0.64 
Increase in profit (loss) before income tax   9,392    (1,475)
    103,387    (15,687)
Less 10%   3.43    0.52 
Decrease in (loss) profit before income tax   (9,392)   1,475

Provision for decommissioning and well closure

 

The provision for decommissioning and well closure is an obligation established by law for all operators. Accordingly, it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and it is possible to reliably estimate its amount. The operator is responsible for this activity to the extent that the wells have been worked during the contract period.

 

As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, the estimate of the amount calculated by the Corporation is based on the following factors:

 

-Total number of wells to be plugged,
  
-Well decommissioning and plugging costs (these costs are estimated on the basis of plug and abandonment performed in previous periods and with quotations made for the Lot I abandonment plan), and
  
-Costs for facility abandonment and remediation areas

 

The Corporation estimates the present value of its future obligation for decommissioning and well closure costs (well closure liability) and increases the carrying amount of the asset to be retired in the future, which is shown in intangible assets item in the consolidated statement of financial position. The provision is recognized at the present value of the expected disbursements in local and foreign currency to settle the obligation using the Peruvian sovereign bond discount rate in local and foreign currency, respectively for 5, 15 and 30 years.

 

The pre-tax discount rates used for the calculation of the present value in 2022 were 5.41% (US dollars) and 7.21% (soles) for Lot I; 5.29% (US dollars) and 6.96% (soles) for Lot V (in 2021 1.48% and 4.54% for Lot I and 1.13% and 4.01% for Lot V, respectively); and 6.57% (US dollars) and 8.22% (soles) for Lots III and IV, based on the rate applicable to Peruvian sovereign bonds in soles and dollars between 3, 5 and 30 years respectively, in effect as of December 2021 and 2022. The liability for the closure of wells and other oil premises is readjusted to reflect changes arising from the passage of time and from reviews conducted either at the date of occurrence or the amount of the present value of the originally estimated obligations (Note 21).

 

If, as of December 31, 2021 and 2022, the estimated rate had increased or decreased by 10%, the impact on pre-tax profit would not have been significant. This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant:

 

In thousands of soles  2021   2022 
10%   1,628    383 
(10%)   1,812    409 

 

iv. Impairment of investment in associate and account receivable to Gasoducto Sur Peruano S.A.

 

As a consequence of the termination of the concession agreement signed between Gasoducto Sur Peruano S.A. (hereinafter “GSP”) and the Peruvian State (Note 14.A), in 2019 the Company impaired the full value of its investment in GSP.

 

Regarding trade accounts receivable, to GSP (Note 11 and Note 14), the Management has determined its recoverability under the following assumptions: (i) the amount that GSP will recover as a result of a possible public auction y (ii) the liquidation of the company via the GSP Creditor´s meeting.

 

Accounts receivable related to GSP as of December 31, 2021 and 2022 amount to S/ 643.9 million and S/ 542.4 million, respectively (Note 11).

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

The calculation of the impairment estimate adheres to a process of liquidation of GSP in accordance with Peruvian legislation, according to which the value of the asset to be recovered is used first to cover the payments of liabilities in the different categories of creditors and the remainder, if it is the case, to cover the payment to the shareholders, taking into account the existing subordination agreements.

 

In 2018, in relation to the amount to be recovered by GSP, the Company assumed a recovery of the minimum amount established in the Concession Agreement, which is equivalent to 72.25% of the Net Carrying Amount (NCA) of the Concession assets. This amount represented a minimum payment to be obtained by GSP based on a public auction to be set up for the adequate transfer of the Concession’s assets to a new concessionaire, under the relevant contractual terms and conditions.

 

Beginning 2019, the recovery of NCA estimated by Management equals 50%, considering the agreements reached in the Final Collaboration and Benefits Agreement and a total term of eight years has been considered, which included the formation of the Creditors’ Meeting, the approval of the settlement plan, the presentation of the arbitration claim, as well as the entire arbitration process.

 

As of the date of this report, GSP is under liquidation. AENZA S.A.A. has pointed as chairman of the Creditors’ Meeting. On April 11, 2023, the Creditors’ Meeting approved with 77% of the votes, the Liquidation Agreement, which establishes the liquidator’s framework. Likewise, on April 12, 2023, the liquidator (Alva Legal Asesoria Empresarial S.A.C.) has notarially requested the initiation of the Direct Treatment procedure with the Ministry of Energy and Mines in accordance with the rules of the Concession Contract. The Company considers that the term of eight years for the recovery of the investment is adequate, considering the possibility of an arbitration process and the time it will take to execute the award. See assumptions and recognized values in Note 14.A.i. The Company’s management maintains the recovery estimate in 8 years, applying a discount rate of 5.85% (recovery term of eigth years with a discount rate of 2.73% as of December 31, 2021). These estimates generated during 2022 a present value effect of approximately S/72.2 million (S/32.8 million during 2021).

 

B. Significant judgments in applying accounting policies

 

Consolidation of entities in which the Corporation holds less than 50%

 

The Corporation owns some direct and indirect subsidiaries in which it has control, even having less than 50% of the voting rights. These entities are mainly related to indirect subsidiaries in the real estate business owned through Viva Negocio Inmobiliario S.A.C., having control over relevant activities affecting the subsidiaries’ returns, even though the Corporation holds interest between 30% and 50%. Additionally, the Corporation has de facto control by a contractual agreement with the majority investor over Promotora Larcomar S.A. of which it owns 46.55% of the equity interest.

 

Consolidation of entities in which the Corporation does not have joint control but holds rights and obligations over the assets and liabilities

 

The Corporation assesses, on an ongoing basis, the nature of the contracts signed with one or more parties. If the Corporation is not determined to have control or joint control but has rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities under the arrangement, the Corporation recognizes its assets, liabilities, income and expenses and its interest in any jointly controlled assets or liabilities and any income or expenses arising from the arrangement as a joint operation in accordance with IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements (Note 2.B.v).

 

6. Interests in Other Entities

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Additionally, the consolidated financial statements include interests in joint operations in which the Company or certain subsidiaries have joint control with their partners (Note 2.B).

The Corporation’s segments are assessed by the activities of the following business units: (i) engineering and construction, (ii) energy, (iii) infrastructure, and (iv) real estate.

 

As set forth under IFRS 8, reportable segments based on the level of revenue are ‘engineering and construction’, ‘infraestructure’ and ‘energy´.

 

Income derived from operations abroad (Chile and Colombia) represents 19.5% of the Corporation’s total income in 2022 (20.7% in 2021 including Chile and Colombia).

 

Inter-segmental sale transactions are made at prices similar to those that would have been agreed to with non-related third parties. Revenues from external customers reported are measured in a manner consistent with the basis of preparation of the statement of profit or loss. Sale of goods are related to real estate segment. Revenues from services are related to other segments.

 

Corporation’s sales and accounts receivable are not concentrated in a few customers. There are no external customers representing 10% or more of the Corporation’s revenue.

 

The Corporation has determined four reportable segments. These operating segments are components of a company about which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Corporate Governance Board (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

 

The operations of Corporation in each reportable segment are as follows:

 

(a)Engineering and construction: This segment includes traditional engineering services such as architectural planning, structural, civil and design engineering for advanced specialties including process design, simulation, and environmental services, as well as construction at three divisions: i) civil works, such as the construction of hydroelectric power stations and other large infrastructure facilities; (ii) electromechanical construction, such as concentrator plants, oil and natural gas pipelines, and electric transmission lines; iii) building construction, such as offices, residential buildings, hotels, and affordable housing projects, shopping centers, and industrial facilities.

(b)Energy: This segment includes oil exploration, exploitation, production, treatment, and trade in four oil deposits, separation and trade of natural gas and its byproducts at the gas processing plant, as well as the construction and assembly of oil facilities or those linked to the oil and gas industry. It also includes storage and dispatch of fuel and oil byproducts.

 

(c)Infrastructure: The Corporation has long-term concessions or similar contractual arrangements in Peru for three highways with tolls, Lima Metro, a sewage treatment plant in Lima, and operation and maintenance services for infrastructure assets.

 

(d)Real Estate: The Corporation mainly develops and sells properties for low- and middle-resource sectors, which are experiencing a significant increase in available income, as well as luxury properties to a lesser degree. It also develops commercial spaces and offices.

 

The Executive Committee uses adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization) as the primary relevant indicator to understanding the operating performance of the Corporation and its operating segments.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of results based on International Financial Reporting Standards. The Corporation’s definition related to adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar performance measures and disclosures from other entities.

 

The adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to net loss as follows:

    290,753    323,663 

 

(c.1)The contract assets from Tren Urbano de Lima S.A. include: i) the quarterly remuneration to be received by the Concessionaire for the kilometers traveled (PKT) pending settlement by the Grantor; ii) account receivable from the Peruvian State in the long term, plus accrued interest according to the amortized cost method (Note 2.E).

 

(c.2)The contract assets of Red Vial 5 S.A. correspond to (i) a claim to the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (“MTC”) related to the application of Clause 9.9 Fare Guarantee of the Concession Agreement, by means of which the Grantor shall recognize and pay to Red Vial 5 S.A. the corresponding fair difference if a public entity does not let the Concessionaire collect the respective fare according to the terms of the agreement. The amount recorded amounting to S/ 13.3 million corresponds to current compensation value. On January 10, 2023, the arbitral request against the Peruvian Government was made before the Centro Internacional de Arreglo de Diferencia Relativas a Inversiones - CIADI (International Center to Deal with Investment Controversies) related to the payment of Fare Guarantee and others related to conservation and maintenance costs, (ii) provisions for supplementary works for S/ 8.7 million, and (iii) provisions receivable for engineering studies amounting to S/ 2.1 million.

 

The fair value of the financial assets related to concession agreements for disclosure purposes is estimated discounting future contractual cash flows with the long-term sovereign interest risk rate. This measurement is classified under level 2 hierarchy according with prior description:

 

   Carrying amount   Fair value 
In thousands of soles  2021   2022   2021   2022 
Tren Urbano de Lima S.A.   773,657    818,354    863,497    810,539

In thousands of soles  Note  2021   2022 
Balance at January, 1      (56,630)   (49,604)

Exchange difference      (336)   32 
Translation adjustments      (1)   54 
Balance at December, 31      (49,604)   (48,484)

 

(*)In 2022 corresponds mainly to write-offs generated in Cumbra Peru for S/ 55.7 million for the agreement with Tecnicas Reunidas in Talara S.A. (in 2021 Cumbra Peru for S/ 4.2 million, Tren Urbano de Lima S.A. for S/ 3.5 million, and others for S/ 0.6 million).

 

Management, after evaluating the balances receivable at the date of the consolidated financial statements, considers that, except for the accounts receivable provisioned, there are no accounts at risk of uncollectibility.

 

In the opinion of Corporate management, the expected credit loss allowance and allowance for trade receivables adequately cover the risk of uncollectibility as of December 31, 2021 and 2022.

The most significant associates are described as follows:

 

i. Gasoducto Sur Peruano S.A.

 

In November 2015, the Corporation acquired a 20% interest in Gasoducto Sur Peruano S.A. and obtained a 29% interest in Consorcio Constructor Ductos del Sur (hereinafter “CCDS”) through its subsidiary Cumbra Peru S.A.

 

On July 22, 2014, GSP signed a concession agreement with the Peruvian Government to build, operate, and maintain a pipeline transportation system of natural gas to meet the demand of cities in the south of Peru (hereinafter the “Concession Agreement”). Additionally, GSP signed an engineering, procurement and construction agreement with CCDS.

 

The Corporation made an investment of US$ 242.5 million (equivalent to S/811 million) and had to assume 20% of the performance bond established in the concession agreement for US$ 262.5 million and 21.49% of the guarantee for a bridge loan of US$ 600 million.

 

Early termination of the Concession Agreement

 

On January 24, 2017 the Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Mines (hereinafter “MEM”) notified the early termination of the Concession Agreement under Clause 6.7 for the failure of the concessionaire to accredit the financial closure within the contractual term, proceeding with the immediate execution of the entirety of the faithful performance guarantee.

 

The situation described in the previous paragraph caused Management to recognize the impairment between 2016 and 2019 of its total investment (US$242.5 million), and required the register of the account receivable resulting from the execution of the counter-guarantees granted by AENZA S.A.A. in favor of the entity issuing the guarantees: for US$ 52.5 million corresponding to the performance bond and US$ 129 million corresponding to the corporate guarantee on the bridge loan granted to GSP. According to the Concession Agreement, the guarantees were paid on behalf of GSP, therefore, AENZA S.A.A. recognized the right to collect from GSP for US$181.5 million, which were recorded in 2016 as accounts receivable from related parties. Likewise, Cumbra Peru recognized the value of accounts receivable from CCDS for US$73.5 million and lost profits for US$10 million, which correspond to receivables from GSP. (Note 11) for the balance of the account receivable from GSP.

 

On October 11, 2017, the agreement deed for the delivery of the assets of the south Peruvian gas pipeline concession between GSP and MEM was signed. The assets include the works, equipment, facilities and engineering studies provided for the execution of the project.

 

Upon termination of the Concession Agreement, and in accordance with the provisions of clause 20 thereof, the Peruvian Government had the obligation to hire an internationally recognized auditing firm to calculate the Net Book Value (hereinafter “NBV”) of the concession assets , and to call up to three auctions on GSP’s assets. However, to date, the Peruvian State continues to fail to comply with these contractual obligations. The amount of the VCN was calculated at US$2,602 million by an independent auditing firm hired by GSP as of December 31, 2016, this figure was subsequently adjusted to US$2,110 million as a result of variations in the balances related to the works carried out by the consortium, which in turn is reported in its audited financial statements as of December 31, 2017.

Collection Actions of AENZA S.A.A.

 

On December 21, 2018, the Company asked the Peruvian Government for direct treatment and requested the payment of NBV in favor of GSP. On October 18, 2019, the Company filed with CIADI an arbitration request. On December 27, 2019 the Company withdrew the arbitration in compliance with a preliminary plea agreement signed with the Attorney General´s Office and Ad-hoc Peruvian Public Prosecutor’s Office on the same date (Note 1). Withdrawing the arbitration before CIADI does not involve the loss of collection rights of the Company against GSP and does not restrict, limit, or impede GSP from asserting its rights against the Peruvian Government.

 

The Company and its internal and external legal advisors consider that the payment owed by the Government to GSP for the NBV are not within the withholding scope under Law 30737 that ensures the immediate payment of civil compensation in favor of the Peruvian Government in cases of corruption and related crimes, since this payment does not include any profit margin and/or not correspond to the sale of assets related to the project, but to a reimbursement for the investment made by the Concessionaire.

 

Bankruptcy of GSP

 

On December 4, 2017, GSP started a bankruptcy proceeding before the INDECOPI. The Company maintains receivable recognized by INDECOPI of US$0.4 million and US$169.3 million, the latter held under trust in favor of the creditors of the Company. In addition, it has indirectly recognized claims of US$11.8 million. On the other hand, the debt of Cumbra Peru S.A. is recognized in INDECOPI indirectly through the Constructor Ductos del Sur of US$88.7 million. As of the date of this report, GSP is under liquidation and AENZA S.A.A. chairs the Board of Creditors.

 

On April 11, 2023, the Liquidation Agreement was approved, which defines the framework for the liquidator’s actions. The Liquidation Agreement includes the granting of powers to the liquidator with respect to representation, administrative, contractual and other relevant powers that allow him to comply with the obligations for which he was appointed, as well as the actions he is allowed to take in order to recover GSP’s assets and in accordance with the mechanisms set forth in the General Law of the Insolvency System.

 

On April 13, 2023, and under the powers granted to him by the Liquidation Agreement, the Liquidator requested the MEM to initiate the Direct Treatment procedure stipulated in the Concession Agreement.

 

Amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements (note 11).

 

As of December 31, 2022, the net value of the account receivable from GSP is approximately US$142.4 million, equivalent to S/542.4 million (US$161.9 million equivalent to S/643.9 million at December 31, 2021), which comprises the recognition in the following entities of the Corporation: i) AENZA S.A.A. holds US$63.9 million (equivalent to S/243. 2 million) discounted to present value net of impairment and the effect of the exchange difference (US$81.1 million equivalent to S/322.6 million at December 31, 2021) and; ii) Cumbra Peru S.A. holds US$78.5 million (equivalent to S/299.2 million) discounted to present value, net of the effect of the exchange difference (US$80.8 million equivalent to S/321.3 million at December 31, 2021).

 

The Company’s management maintains the recovery estimate in 8 years, applying a discount rate of 5.85% (recovery term of 8 years with a discount rate of 2.73% as of December 31, 2021). These estimates generated during 2022 a present value effect of approximately S/72.2 million (S/32.8 million in 2021) which has been recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss under the caption “Financial income and expenses loss from present value” (Note 26.B).

 

Based on management’s assessment and in conjunction with the opinion of the internal legal department and external legal counsel, the estimate of recoverability, impairment allowances and the net recognized value of the account receivable from GSP as of December 31, 2021 and 2022 is reasonable and sufficient as of the reporting date of the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements, see also Notes 5.A.iv and 11.

ii. Concesionaria Chavimochic S.A.C.

 

In May 2014, Concesionaria Chavimochic S.A.C. (hereinafter the Concessionaire”), in which AENZA has 26.5% of interest, signed an agreement with the Peruvian Government (hereinafter the Concession Agreement”) for the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of major hydraulic works of Chavimochic Project (hereinafter the “Project”). The construction of the work started in 2015 with a concession term of twenty-five (25) years and a total investment of about US$ 647 million.

 

According to the Concession Agreement, the works of the third stage of the Project were structured in two phases. To date, the works of the first phase (Palo Redondo Dam) are 70% in progress. However, at the beginning of 2017, the procedure for early termination of the Concession Agreement was initiated due to the breach of contract by the Grantor, and all activities were suspended in December 2017. Due to the fact that no agreement was made, the Concessionaire initiated an arbitration process before the Comision de las Naciones Unidas para el Derecho Mercantil Internacional (CNUDMI).

 

On October 4, 2022, the Arbitration Court notified the parties with the award, which provided for the early termination of the Concession Agreement and ordered, among other things, that the Grantor pay the Concessionaire the amount of US$ 25.3 million as a consequence of its failure to provide the Project Control Delivery, and the execution of 70% of the Performance Bond or the payment of US$ 25 million for the Concessionaire’s failure to obtain evidence of financial closing.

 

Despite the requests for exclusion and integration of the award filed by the Concessionaire, the Court did not issue a decision within the deadline, and the award was consented to. As of December 31, 2022, an impairment of its total investment amounting to S/ 14.5 million was recorded.

 

In February 2023, the Grantor partially executed the Concessionaire’s performance bond, where AENZA S.A.A. was required to assume a total of US$7.5 million. Likewise, prior to the closing of this report, the Grantor requested the execution of the balance of the Concessionaire’s performance bond, where AENZA S.A.A. is responsible for US$2 million. The Concessionaire is currently coordinating the necessary legal actions for the full execution of the award so that the Grantor complies with the obligations arising therefrom. Likewise, the Concessionaire will initiate legal actions against the Grantor for what it considers an arbitrary execution of the balance of the performance bond without the arbitration court having granted the possibility of executing the bond for a higher amount.

A. Goodwill

 

Corporation’s Management reviews the performance of its businesses based on the economic activity performed. As of December 31, the goodwill of cash generating units (CGUs) is distributed as follows:

 

In thousands of soles  2021   2022 
Engineering and construction   36,344    28,741 
Electromechanical   20,736    20,736 
    57,080    49,477 

 

As of December 31, 2022, goodwill consists of an accumulated cost of S/123.8 million, accumulated impairment of S/53.2 million and a decrease due to translation effect of S/13.5 million.

 

As a result of Management’s annual impairment tests on goodwill, the recoverable value of cash-generating units was determined based on the greater their value in use and fair value less disposal costs. The value in use was determined based on the expected future cash flows generated by the evaluation of CGUs.

 

As a result of these evaluations in 2021 and 2022, no impairment was identified.

 

The main assumptions used by the Corporation to determine the recoverable value are the following:

 

   Engineering     
   and   Electro- 
In percentage  construction   mechanical 
2021        
Gross margin   11.10%   9.04%
Terminal growth rate   3.30%   0.00%
Discount rate   11.97%   13.28%
2022          
Gross margin   9.23%   8.13%
Terminal growth rate   3.80%   0.00%
Discount rate   17.66%   14.89%

 

Discount rate

 

The discount rate is the cost of capital applied to determine the present value of a future payment.

 

Growth rate

 

Market-based and generally in line with projected long-term inflation for the countries in which each CGU operates.

 

Perpetual growth rate

 

The rate used to calculate the terminal or residual value in the valuation of the business.

 

These assumptions have been used for the analysis of each CGUs for a five-year period considering a recovery residual value without any growth.

 

Management determines budgeted gross margins based on past profit loss and market development expectations. Average growth rates are consistent with those prevailing in the industry. The discount rates used are pre-tax, as applicable, and reflect the specific risks associated with the CGUs evaluated.

 

B. Trademarks

 

As of December 31, 2022, this item includes the trademarks acquired in the business combination processes with Vial y Vives S.A.C. for S/ 42 million (S/ 47.4 million as of December 31, 2021) and Morelco S.A.S. for S/ 20.6 million (S/ 26.1 million as of December 31, 2021). Management determined that the Vial y Vives and Morelco trademarks have indefinite useful lives, consequently, these intangible assets are tested annually for impairment using the methodology of saving in the payment of license fees or royalties.

28. Tax Situation

 

A.According to current provisions legally in force for Peru, Chile, and Colombia, each company of the Corporation is individually subject to the applicable taxes. The Management considers that it has calculated the income tax base according to the current tax provisions legally in force for every country.

 

The Company and subsidiaries are subject to Peruvian tax regime. As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, the Corporate Income Tax rate in Peru is calculated on the basis of the net taxable income determined by the Company at a rate of 29.5% and the Income tax rate applicable to the distribution of dividends and any other form of profit distribution is 5%.

 

B.In accordance with current Peruvian tax legislation, non-domiciled individuals only pay taxes for its Peruvian source income. Thus, in general terms, revenues obtained by non-domiciled individuals from the services rendered in the country shall be subject to a 30% Income Tax on gross income; provided that no double tax treaties are applicable. Currently, Peru has entered into double tax treaties with the Andean Community, Chile, Canada, Brazil, Portugal, Switzerland, Mexico, and South Korea.

 

Concerning the technical assistance or digital services rendered by non-domiciled individuals to domiciled individuals, regardless of the place where the service is rendered, they shall be subject to a 15% and 30% income tax rate on gross income, respectively. Technical assistance will be subject to a 15% rate, provided that Income Tax Law requirements are met. As stated in the foregoing paragraph, the withholding rate may vary in these cases or withholding may not be applicable based on the provisions set forth in a double tax treaty.

 

C. Changes in the Income Tax Law in Colombia

 

Since 2021, several regulations have been published regarding income tax applicable to subsidiaries domiciled in Colombia:

 

a)Law 2155 of Social Investment, whose amendments are effective as of 2022.

 

Increase of the income tax rate for legal entities to 35% as from 2022.

AENZA S.A.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2022

 

Discount of the Industry and Trade Tax (ICA) of 50% plus the tax for notices and boards paid during the taxable year. Effective only until fiscal year 2022.

 

Tax standardization: this tax is created as an additional tax on income, being the generating fact the omission of assets or declaring nonexistent liabilities. The rate of this new tax will be 17% and the taxable base will be the one established in section 2 of the social investment law. The standardization tax is not a deductible expense for the calculation of income tax.

 

Audit benefit: the term for the DIAN (Colombian tax authorities) to examine the years 2022 and 2023 income tax returns is extended, being the definitive terms 6 and 12 months. This benefit does not apply to companies with a tax of less than 71 UVT (tax value unit) or that have tax benefits due to their location in a specific geographical area.

 

b)Law 2277 of Tax Reform for Equality and Social Justice, whose changes are in force since 2023.

 

New Minimum Tax The taxpayer and/or the business group to which it belongs must calculate an effective rate (adjusted income tax/debugged profit) which may not be less than 15%.

 

Limit of 3% of the taxable income for the addition of some non-taxable income, special deductions, exempt income and tax discounts.

 

For foreign companies and entities and non-domiciled individuals, the withholding rate increases for dividends from profits that have been considered as revenue not constituting income or occasional gain. In this case, the withholding rate would be 20% (10% in force until 2022).

 

The occasional income tax rate is set at 15% (10% effective until 2022)

 

D. Tax Loss carryforward

 

In Peru the tax loss regime regulated by Section 50° of the Income Tax Law establishes two systems for offsetting tax losses:

 

Offsetting the loss with the net corporate income obtained during the four years following the period of its generation, year after year, until the amount disappears (A System). The uncompensated balance after such term may not be offset in the following periods.

 

Offsetting the loss with 50% of net corporate income obtained during the immediately following periods, year after year, until the amount disappears (B System).

 

By means of Legislative Decree 1481, published on May 8, 2020, exceptionally, the loss carryforward period under System A of loss offsetting, only for the total net corporate loss of Peruvian source obtained in the taxable year 2020, will be five (5) years.

 

In Chile, tax losses are set off against future taxable income with no expiration limit.

 

As of December 31, 2022, the total tax loss amounts to S/616 million (as of December 31, 2021, a total of S/639 million) and is composed as follows:

In thousands of soles  Note   2021   2022 
             
Current income tax        113,000    127,952 
Deferred income tax   23    (66,595)   3,394 
Income tax        46,405    131,346 

 

F.The Corporation’s income tax differs from the theoretical amount that would result from applying the Corporation entities’ weighted average income tax rate applicable to consolidated pretax income as follows:

 

In thousands of soles  2021   2022 
         
Loss before income tax   (28,637)   (230,708)
           
Income tax by applying local applicable tax rates on profit generated in the respective countries   (7,879)   (68,537)
Tax effect on:          
- Non-deductible expenses   33,489    143,627 
- Change in prior years estimations   8,492    26,486 
- Unrecognized deferred income tax asset   1,459    26,518 
- Provision of tax contingencies   14,240    3,631 
- Equity method (profit) loss   254    350 
- Non-taxable income   (57)   (914)
- Others   (3,593)   185 
Income tax   46,405    131,346 

 

G.The theoretical tax disclosed results from applying the income tax rate in accordance with the tax legislation of the country where each company that is part of the Corporation is domiciled. In this regard, companies domiciled in Peru, Chile, and Colombia applied in 2022 income tax rates of 29.5%, 27%, and 35% respectively (29.5%, 27%, and 31% in 2021). Red Vial 5 S.A., Tren Urbano de Lima S.A., Concesionaria Via Expresa Sur S.A., and Unna Energia S.A. (Lots III and IV) have legal stability agreements signed with the Peruvian Government in force during the term of the associated concessions. Therefore, the consolidated theoretical amount is obtained from weighting the profit or loss before income tax and the applicable income tax rate.

H. Income Tax Assessment

 

Peruvian Tax Authorities are entitled to examine and, if applicable, to correct the income tax calculated by the Company within the four years following the year of tax return filing, counted as from January 1 of the year after the filling of the corresponding tax return (years open to audit). Tax returns for years 2018 through 2022 are open for examination. Management considers that no significant liabilities will arise as a result of these income tax assessments. In addition, tax returns for years 2019 through 2022 are pending examination by the Chilean tax authorities, who are entitled to conduct examinations within a period of three years from the date of presentation of the respective tax returns. Likewise, in Colombia, tax returns for years 2020, 2021, and 2022 are pending examination by the Colombian tax authorities, who are entitled to conduct examinations within a period of two ears from the date of presentation of the respective tax return.

 

In addition, the declaration of National Emergency issued by government by means of Executive Order 044-2020-PCM and its amendments, suspended the term for limitations of the Tax Administration’s auditing from March 16, 2020 to June 10, 2020, i.e., for a period of eighty seven (87) calendar days.

 

Due to possible varied interpretations of the current legal regulations by the Tax Authorities, it is not possible to determine, to date, whether a future tax audit will result or not in liabilities for the Company; therefore, any difference that might arise from eventual tax audits would be applied to profit or loss for the period in which it is determined.

 

I. Uncertainty over income tax treatments

 

The Corporation has performed an assessment of uncertain tax treatment positions in accordance with IFRIC 23 and determined, based on its tax compliance and transfer pricing study, that it is probable that its tax treatments will be accepted by the tax authorities. The Interpretation had no impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021 and 2022.

 

J. Temporary Tax on Net Assets (ITAN)

 

It is applicable to the Corporate Income, whose taxable base is constituted by the adjusted net assets at the end of the fiscal year prior to payment, after deducting depreciation, amortization, legal reserve, and specific provisions for credit risk. The tax rate is 0.4% for year 2021 and 2022 and is applied to the amount of net assets exceeding S/1 million. It may be paid in cash or in nine consecutive monthly installments. The paid amount may be used as a credit against payments on account of General Regime of Income Tax for taxable periods from March to December of the fiscal period for which the tax was paid until maturity date of each of the payments on account, and against the payment for regularization of income tax of the corresponding taxable period. In the event a remaining balance is not applied, its refund could be requested. The Corporation has determined that its Temporary Tax on Net Assets in 2022 amounts to S/21.5 million (S/21.8 million in 2021).

K. Tax on financial transactions

 

Tax on Financial Transactions (ITF) for the periods 2021 and 2022 was fixed at the rate of 0.005%. This tax is applied on debits and credits in bank accounts or movements of funds made through the financial system, unless the account is tax-exempt.

 

L. Transfer pricing

 

For Income Tax determination purposes, transfer pricing for transactions carried out with related parties and with companies domiciled in territories with low or null taxation, shall be supported with documentation and information about the valuation methods used, and the criteria considered for pricing. Until fiscal year 2016, it was mandatory to submit a Transfer Pricing Sworn Statement and a Technical Study.

 

By means of Legislative Decree 1312, published on December 31, 2016 and effective January 1, 2017, the following formal obligations were established to replace the former ones: (i) presentation of a Local File (subject to materialization limits); (ii) presentation of a Master File (subject to materialization limits), and (iii) presentation of a Country-by-Country Reporting. The presentation of the Master File and the Country-by-country reporting will become obligatory from 2018 onwards.

 

In addition, the Decree 1312 also established that intra-group services with low added value shall not have a margin greater than 5% of their costs. Concerning the services rendered among related parties, taxpayers shall comply with the benefit test and provide the documentation and information under specific conditions for the deduction of costs or expenses.

 

Based on the analysis of operations of the Company, the Management and its legal advisors consider that, as a consequence of the application of these provisions, no material contingencies will arise as of December 31, 2021 and 2022.

 

M. The current income tax payable after applying the corresponding tax credits maturing on the first week of April of the following year, mainly include the following:

 

Viva Negocio Inmobiliario S.A.C. S/40.5 million in 2022 (S/0.7 million in 2021)

 

Tren Urbano de Lima S.A. S/3.3 million in 2022

 

Red Vial 5 S.A. S/13.9 million in 2021

 

Unna Energia S.A. S/14.1 million in 2021

 

N. Major amendments to Peruvian tax laws effective from January 1, 2021

 

i. Accrual accounting concept

 

Legislative Decree 1425 introduced the definition of “legal accrual” for income tax purposes, applicable from 2019, stating that: a) income from transfer of goods occurs when i) control has been transferred (in accordance with IFRS 15); or ii) risk has been transferred to the acquirer (Risk Theory set out in the Civil Code), whichever occurs first; and b) income from service rendering occurs when realization level of the rendered service has been established.

 

The new legal accrual concept is applicable to lessees for determining the tax treatment of the expense associated with lease agreements regulated by IFRS 16 (e.g. operating leases for tax purposes).

 

The concept serving as comment will not be applicable for those entities accruing income or expenses for Income Tax in accordance with tax provisions establishing a special (sectorial) regime of accrual.

 

ii. Deduction of expenses or costs incurred in transactions with non-domiciled parties

 

Legislative Decree 1369 requires that costs and/or expenses (including outbound interest) incurred with non-domiciled individuals must be paid effectively to be deducted in the year they were incurred. Otherwise, their impact on the determination of net income will be deferred to the year in which they are actually paid and the corresponding withholding will be applied.

 

This regulation eliminated the obligation to pay the amount equivalent to the withholding on the amount recorded as cost and/or expense.

iii. Indirect loan

 

As from January 1, 2019, under certain requirements, domiciled entities receiving foreign inbound dividends may deduct as direct loan the income tax that would have been levied on the foreign dividends and the corporate income tax (indirect loan) paid by the tier 1 and tier 2 non-domiciled entity (provided they are in the same jurisdiction) that would have been applied to distribute the dividends from abroad.

 

iv. Measures to implement the General Anti-avoidance Rule provided in the regulation XVI of Tax Code

 

Legislative Decree 1422 set up the procedure to implement the General Anti-avoidance Rule, mainly stating that: (i) it is applicable only in final audit procedures in which acts, events or situations that occurred since July 19, 2012, are reviewed; (ii) it is applicable only if there is a favorable opinion from a review committee composed of Tax Authorities’ officers (said opinion is not appealable); and (iv) final audit procedures, in which the General Anti-avoidance Rule is applicable, are not subject to the one (1) year term to request information from the audited parties.

 

On May 6, 2019, Executive Order 145-2019-EF was published in the Official Gazette El Peruano. This Decree approves the substantive and formal parameters for the application of the general anti-avoidance rule contained in Rule XVI of the Tax Code., thus, complying with the requirement to release the suspension established by Law 30230 for the application of said rule. Likewise, SUNAT Audit Procedure Regulations have been adapted for this purpose.

 

By means of Resolution 000184-2021/SUNAT, published on December 13, 2021, the members of the Review Committee of SUNAT referred to in Article 62-C of the Sole Ordered Text of the Tax Code were appointed, which states that when applying the Anti-avoidance Rule in an audit procedure, a report must be sent together with the audit file to the Review Committee.

 

v. Joint and several liability of legal representatives and Directors

 

Legislative Decree 1422 establishes that from September 14, 2018, when an audited individual is subject to the General Anti-Avoidance Rule, there is joint and several liability of legal representatives due to fraud, gross negligence, or misuse of powers, unless proven otherwise. The aforementioned joint and several liability shall be attributed to said representatives provided that they collaborated in the design, approval or execution of the acts, situations or business relationships with an avoidance purpose.

 

This regulation also applies to the members of the Board of Directors, indicating that they shall establish a tax strategy for the companies in which they act as directors, having to decide whether or not to approve the acts, situations or business relationships to be carried out within the framework of tax planning; they shall not delegate such responsibility.

 

Lastly, the members of the domiciled companies’ Board of Directors were granted a term, with maturity on March 29, 2019, to verify or modify the acts, situations or business relationships carried out within the tax planning and implemented as of September 14, 2018, that continue having tax effect to date.

 

Considering the maximum term established for compliance with said formal obligation, the aforementioned joint and several liability attributable to legal representatives and directors, and the absence of a definition of ‘tax planning’, it will be crucial to review any act, situation or economic relation that has: (i) increased tax allocation; and/or (ii) generated a lower payment of taxes for the aforementioned periods, in order to avoid the attribution of joint and several liability, both administratively and punitively, depending on the supervisory agent criterion. The latter, in case the company to be audited by the Tax Authorities is subject to the General Anti-Avoidance Rule.

vi. Information related to ultimate beneficiaries

 

In line with the regulations to strengthen the fight against tax evasion and avoidance, as well as against money laundering and terrorism financing, as from August 3, 2018, provisions introduced by Legislative Decree 1372 are currently in force. The aforementioned decree requires the presentation of information related to ultimate beneficiaries to the competent authorities by means of a sworn statement of the ultimate beneficiaries. Said statement shall disclose the names of the natural persons that effectively retain ownership or control. Accordingly, it is mandatory to report the following information: (i) identification of the ultimate beneficiary; (ii) chain of title with its respective supporting documents; and (iii) identification of third parties that have said information, if applicable. It is also noted that the information related to the identification of the ultimate beneficiaries of legal persons and legal entities that will be provided to the competent authorities within the framework of these rules does not constitute a violation of professional secrecy nor is it subject to the restrictions on disclosure of information derived from confidentiality imposed by contract or by any legal or regulatory provision.

 

Likewise, by means of Superintendence Resolution 041-2022/SUNAT, effective as of March 25, 2022, the new parties obliged to file the sworn statement of the ultimate beneficiaries for fiscal years 2022 and 2023 (provided that they have not filed any in December 2019) were established.

 

The legal entities were obliged to file the sworn statement of the ultimate beneficiaries in accordance with the maturity schedule for monthly obligations for the period December 2022; however, by means of Superintendence Resolution 000278-2022/SUNAT, such due date was postponed until the period December 2023.

 

It should be taken into consideration that, if the sworn informative statement containing the information related to the ultimate beneficiaries is not filed, the legal representatives of the entity that failed to file such statement will be jointly and severally liable.

 

vii. Indirect Transfer of Shares

 

Since January 1, 2019, an anti-avoidance measure has been applied to prevent the split of operations, which allows indirect transfer of shares of companies domiciled in Peru.

 

It is indicated that in order to establish whether in a twelve-month period the transfer of 10% or more of the capital of the Peruvian company has been complied with, the transfers made by the subject under analysis are considered, as well as those made to its related parties, whether they are executed through one or several simultaneous or successive operations. The relationship shall be established in accordance with provisions of article 32-A (b) of the Income Tax Law.

 

In addition, regardless of compliance with the provisions of the Income Tax Law, an indirect taxable transfer shall always be established when, over any period of 12 months, the total amount of transferred shares of the Peruvian legal person is equal to or greater than forty thousand (40,000) UIT.

 

Likewise, when the transferor is a non-domiciled legal person that has a branch office or any permanent establishment in Peru with allocated equity, the latter is considered a jointly liable party. Thus, the latter is required to provide information, among other, regarding the transferred shares or interest of the non-domiciled legal person.

 

viii. Thin Capitalization

 

Beginning January 1, 2021, finance cost will be deductible up to 30% of the tax-EBITDA (Net Income – Loss Offsetting + Net Interest + Depreciation + Amortization) of the prior period. There are some exemptions regarding this 30% limit for banks, taxpayers whose income is lower than 2,500 UIT (tax units), infrastructure, public services, among others.

 

Executive Order 402-2021, published on December 30, effective as of December 31, 2021, amended the Income Tax Law Regulation that regulates the calculation of the tax EBITDA for purposes of the debt interest limit.

 

For fiscal years 2019 and 2020 the financial expense generated by indebtedness both between independent and related parties is subject to the thin capitalization limit of (3:1 Debt/Equity Ratio) calculated at the end of the previous fiscal year.

ix. Other relevant changes

 

Within the framework of the delegation of powers to legislate on tax, fiscal, financial and economic reactivation matters, given to the Executive Branch (Law 31380), on December 30, 2021, the first tax regulations were published, among which the tax benefits approved for the Aquaculture and Forestry sector, the standardization of the cost for access to tax stability and the extension of the VAT exemptions stand out.

 

They extend the validity of some exonerations and tax benefits, specifically the following:

 

The exemptions contained in Appendices I and II of the Sales Tax Law were extended until December 31, 2025. Consequently, the sale of staple foods and basic services such as public transportation, among others, will not be levied with sales tax. Link to the regulation of comment: Law 31651

 

The issuance of electronic money will not be levied with sales tax until December 31, 2024. Link to the regulation of comment: Legislative Decree 1519

 

The refund of taxes levied on acquisitions with donations from abroad and imports from diplomatic missions is allowed until December 31, 2024: Link to the regulation of comment: Legislative Decree 1519

 

In addition, Executive Order 1516, published on December 30, 2021, and in force as from December 31, 2021, established the standardization of the cost for access to the stability provided for in the Legal Stability Agreements under Legislative Decrees 662 and 757. Accordingly, such decree has modified Article 1 of Law 27342 that regulates such agreements. Therefore, receiving companies signing with the government stabilizes the Income Tax to be applied according to the regulations in force at the time of the subscription of the corresponding agreement, being applicable the current rate referred to in the first paragraph of Article 55 of the Income Tax Law at that time plus 2 (two) percentage points.

 

Likewise, Legislative Decree 1529, effective beginning on April 1, 2022, amended Law 28194 Law for the Fight against Evasion and for the Formalization of the Economy, regarding the cases in which means of payment must be used; the amount from which it is obligatory to use means of payment, and the obligation to report to the Tax Authority about payments made to third parties other than the creditor.
