These financial statements were prepared according to the principles of the Swiss Law on Accounting and Financial Reporting (32nd title of the Swiss Code of Obligations). Where not prescribed by law, the significant accounting and measurement principles applied are described below. It should be noted that to ensure the company's going concern, the company may create and release hidden reserves.
The company was registered in the commercial register on 28 January 2020. The first financial year (2020) encompasses the period from 28 January to 31 December 2020.
In accordance with Article 961 (1) CO, no further disclosures are made in the notes, cash flow statement and directors' report because Ina Invest Holding Ltd prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with Swiss GAAP FER and is listed at the Swiss stock exchange SIX.
The Investment in Ina Invest Ltd is measured at the lower of acquisition cost or net market value. If there is an indication that the carrying amount may be overstated, it is reviewed and, if necessary, an impairment is recognised. Based on external sources, management has concluded that the investment is not impaired as at 31 December 2020.
Share-based payments paid with equity instruments are measured at their fair value prevailing on the day of the grant and recognised as personnel expenses over the vesting period. The grant date fair value is determined using valuation models that are based on the registered shares’ market rates at grant date.
Any pro rata expenses accrued are deferred as of the balance sheet date. Should treasury shares be used for share-based payments made to board members and employees, the difference between the acquisition costs and the market value at grant date is recognised as financial expenses or financial income.
