Financial position
Since January 2011, the Group has been in breach of the obligation to make the lease payments for Marina Dorcol. During the reporting period, management recognised an expense of EUR 803 thousands as a result of the lease interest and inflation on the unpaid overdue lease contracted payments.
At 31 March 2016, the Group was in breach of EUR 33.9 million of lease payments. After the reporting date, the Company further breached its obligation to pay by an additional amount of EUR 0.1 million.
Following the above, the municipality initiated several claims during recent periods to collect those debts.
In the event that it does not settle the debt, the Company is exposed to the following sanctions and risks:
-- Termination of the lease contracts which will cause the loss of the right to use of land;
-- Should any party commence bankruptcy proceedings against Marina Dorcol, the Company would lose control of Marina Dorcol and would be exposed to uncertainty with respect to compensation from the bankruptcy estate, since the Company will be in the "last row of creditors".
In the event that the Serbian municipality decides to terminate the lease contract, it has to give to the Company a written notice of its intention to do so and detail the reasons for the termination. The Company will have 90 days to remedy the breach in order to avoid the agreement termination (i.e. perform the payment obligation, and if it fails to do so the municipality is entitled to terminate the agreement).
In the event that the Company does not accept the reasons for the termination, they should initiate a procedure before the Commercial Court in Belgrade for the determination of the validity of the request for the termination and whether the request is based on valid legal and commercial reasons.
In the event of termination, the final result of termination would be the restitution of the amounts paid by the Group in respect of Marina Dorcol based on the agreements with the municipality, decreased by the amount of compensation for usage of such land for the period of duration of lease and for compensation of damages which occurred for the municipality, if any.
The Group is currently in the process of negotiation with the municipality of Belgrade to restructure the arrangement.
In order to manage its financial situation, the Company approached in the previous periods Engel Resources and Development Ltd. ("ERD"), the parent company of the Company's immediate parent company, Engel General Developers Ltd. ("EGD"), to provide additional financial assistance to fund the Company's immediate liabilities.
As of 31 March 2016, the outstanding debt toward ERD is EUR 25,024 thousands and is due by 30 June 2016. During the reporting period, ERD did not provide any additional bridge loans to the Company.
In order to finance the Company's immediate liabilities and to stabilise its financial position, management has acted to realise several assets during the recent reporting periods however ERD support is still needed to extend the repayment date of its loans beyond 30 June 2016.
At 31 March 2016, the Group has current liabilities totalling EUR 69,412 thousands, which exceeds its current assets amounting to EUR 6,713 thousands and a negative equity which amounts to EUR 41,824 thousands.
The financial statements are prepared based on a going concern basis. However, management believes that the above mentioned conditions indicate the existence of material uncertainties which cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.
Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate, adjustments would have to be made to reflect a situation where the assets may need to be realised other than in the normal course of business and at amounts which could differ significantly from the amounts stated in the interim financial statements.
Trading performance
1. On 13 January 2016, MLP completed the sale of two plots of land held for residential development purposes in Canada for a total cash consideration of CAD 20,227 thousands (EUR 13,095 thousands).
MLP recognised a profit before income tax in the amount of EUR 2,815 thousands (the Company's share was EUR 563 thousands and it was recognised under the "share of profit (loss) of equity-accounted investments, net of tax").
The Company's expected share of the distribution will be 20%, equating to approximately CAD 3.5 million (EUR 2.3 million).
After the reporting period a total amount of EUR 1,193 thousands has been distributed to the Company, the proceeds has been used for the full repayment of the loan granted by Real Property Investment (Guernsey) Limited, see note 9.b.
Based on prior agreements with ERD, all the net future proceeds generated from the Company's assets in Canada will be used to repay the outstanding debts of the Company to ERD.
2. On 26 January 2016, the Company sold its investment in the wholly owned subsidiary, Davero Invest s.r.l ("Davero").
As a consequence the Company does not control Davero, therefore ceased to consolidate it in its condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company recognised income of EUR 115 thousands under "other income" in the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss.
3. On 10 March 2016, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Eurobul Ltd. ("Eurobul") signed a loan agreement in the total amount of EUR 2,164 thousands with Real Property Investment (Guernsey) Limited ("RPIGL").
According to the contract with RPIGL, the loan could only be used for the full repayment of the bank loans granted by Bank Leumi Le-Israel Ltd. to Eurobul.
In order to secure the repayment of the loan the Company committed to use all funds generated from the following cash distributions:
a. The net distribution generated from the sale of wholly owned subsidiary Palace Engel Vokovice s.r.o. (see note d below).
During the reporting period, the Company paid RPIGL the funds according to this clause in the total amount of EUR 750 thousands.
b. The net distribution generated from the sale of the two plots in Canada (see note 8.a.iv.1).
After the reporting period, the Company paid RPIGL the funds according to this clause in the total amount of EUR 1,164 thousands.
c. 2/3 of the proceeds generated from the sale of any assets of the Company and Eurobul will be paid to RPIGL as soon as funds are available.
During the reporting period, the Company paid RPIGL the funds according to this clause in the total amount of EUR 250 thousands.
The loan is denominated in EUR and carries no interest.
RPIGL holds 6.44% of the voting rights and issued share capital of the Company. RPIGL is a related party of GBES Limited as they are controlled by the same shareholder.
4. On 14 March 2016 and 16 March 2016, Eurobul repaid two outstanding bank loans, granted by Bank Leumi Le-Israel Ltd. ("the lender bank"), in a total amount of EUR 2,179 thousands.
According to the terms of the agreement with the lender bank, in the case of full repayment of the two loans, the lender bank will waive the third bank loan in the total amount of EUR 576 thousands.
The lender bank waived the loan on 16 March 2016 and the Company recognised a finance income in the profit or loss in the total amount of EUR 576 thousands.
5. On 16 December 2015, Arces signed a conditional agreement to sell its shares and receivables in the wholly owned subsidiary Palace Engel Vokovice s.r.o ("Vokovice s.r.o").
On 14 March 2016 the sale was completed. As the plot of land held by Vokovice s.r.o was measured as of 31 December 2015 based on its net realisable value which was determined based on the transaction price in the conditional agreement the transaction did not generate any material result in the profit or loss of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
The proceeds have been used for the repayment of the loan granted by Real Property Investment (Guernsey) Limited, see note 9.b.
6. During the reporting period, the transfer of 2,871,460 ordinary shares ("Shares") in ERD held by advocates Yuri Nechushtan and Eyal Neiger as receivers to GBES Limited ("GBES") has been completed.
The ownership of the Shares is to be split between GBES and the Gabay Group Limited, an Israeli real estate company, and its subsidiaries (the "Gabay Group"). As an interim measure, the Shares have been transferred to GBES, who are holding 1,133,372 ordinary shares in ERD in trust for the Gabay Group. As a result, GBES currently holds 2,871,460 ordinary shares in ERD (representing 53.0% of the voting right of ERD) and the Gabay Group currently holds 536,555 ordinary shares in ERD (representing 9.9% of the voting right of ERD).
Once the splitting of the Shares has taken place, GBES will hold 1,738,088 ordinary shares in ERD (representing 32.1% of the voting right of ERD) and the Gabay Group will hold a total of 1,669,927 ordinary shares in ERD (representing 30.9% of the voting right of ERD), including 536,555 ordinary shares in ERD held by the Gabay Group prior to the splitting of the Shares. The transfer of shares to the Gabay Group is yet to be completed.
ERD controls Engel General Developers Limited, which holds 68.35% of the issued share capital of Kimberly.
Accordingly, GBES currently holds a 36.2% economic interest in Kimberly and the Gabay Group currently holds a 6.8% economic interest in Kimberly.
In addition, Real Property Investment (Guernsey) Limited ("RPIGL") holds 6.4% of the voting rights and issued share capital of the Company. The shares of RPIGL and GBES are held by a discretionary settlement, of which certain members of the Morris family are potential beneficiaries, and which therefore currently has a combined economic interest in 42.6% of Kimberly.

Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements
NOTE 1 - REPORTING ENTITY
Kimberly Enterprises N.V. (the "Company") is a company domiciled in The Netherlands. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements ("interim financial statements") as at and for the three months ended 31 March 2016 comprise the Company, its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group") and the Group's interests in an associate and a joint venture.
The Group is primarily involved in holding, developing and selling real-estate assets in Eastern Europe.
The Company has been listed on the Alternative Investment Market ("AIM") of the London Stock Exchange, United Kingdom since 15 December 2005.
Copies of these consolidated financial statements of the Group are available on the Company's website (www.kimberly-enterprises.com) and upon request from the Company's registered office.
NOTE 2 - BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union and should be read in conjunction with the Group's last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2015 ("last annual financial statements"). They do not include all the information required for a complete set of IFRS financial statements. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.
These interim financial statements were authorised for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on 17 May 2016.
NOTE 3 - USE OF JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
In preparing these interim financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2015.
NOTE 4 - GOING CONCERN
Since January 2011, the Group has been in breach of the obligation to make the lease payments for Marina Dorcol. During the reporting period, management recognised an expense of EUR 803 thousands as a result of the lease interest and inflation on the unpaid overdue lease contracted payments.
At 31 March 2016, the Group was in breach of EUR 33.9 million of lease payments. After the reporting date, the Company further breached its obligation to pay by an additional amount of EUR 0.1 million.
Following the above, the municipality initiated several claims during recent periods to collect those debts.
In the event that it does not settle the debt, the Company is exposed to the following sanctions and risks:
-- Termination of the lease contracts which will cause the loss of the right to use of land;
-- Should any party commence bankruptcy proceedings against Marina Dorcol, the Company would lose control of Marina Dorcol and would be exposed to uncertainty with respect to compensation from the bankruptcy estate, since the Company will be in the "last row of creditors".
In the event that the Serbian municipality decides to terminate the lease contract, it has to give to the Company a written notice of its intention to do so and detail the reasons for the termination. The Company will have 90 days to remedy the breach in order to avoid the agreement termination (i.e. perform the payment obligation, and if it fails to do so the municipality is entitled to terminate the agreement).
In the event that the Company does not accept the reasons for the termination, they should initiate a procedure before the Commercial Court in Belgrade for the determination of the validity of the request for the termination and whether the request is based on valid legal and commercial reasons.
In the event of termination, the final result of termination would be the restitution of the amounts paid by the Group in respect of Marina Dorcol based on the agreements with the municipality, decreased by the amount of compensation for usage of such land for the period of duration of lease and for compensation of damages which occurred for the municipality, if any.
The Group is currently in the process of negotiation with the municipality of Belgrade to restructure the arrangement.
In order to manage its financial situation, the Company approached in the previous periods Engel Resources and Development Ltd. ("ERD"), the parent company of the Company's immediate parent company, Engel General Developers Ltd. ("EGD"), to provide additional financial assistance to fund the Company's immediate liabilities.
As of 31 March 2016, the outstanding debt toward ERD is EUR 25,024 thousands and is due by 30 June 2016. During the reporting period, ERD did not provide any additional bridge loans to the Company.
In order to finance the Company's immediate liabilities and to stabilise its financial position, management has acted to realise several assets during the recent reporting periods however ERD support is still needed to extend the repayment date of its loans beyond 30 June 2016.
At 31 March 2016, the Group has current liabilities totalling EUR 69,412 thousands, which exceeds its current assets amounting to EUR 6,713 thousands and a negative equity which amounts to EUR 41,824 thousands.
The financial statements are prepared based on a going concern basis. However, management believes that the above mentioned conditions indicate the existence of material uncertainties which cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.
Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate, adjustments would have to be made to reflect a situation where the assets may need to be realised other than in the normal course of business and at amounts which could differ significantly from the amounts stated in the interim financial statements.
NOTE 5 - FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
All the aspects of the Group's financial risk management objectives and policies are consistent with that disclosed in the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2015.
a. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation.
See note 4 which includes the Group's going concern analysis and describes the financial difficulties and liquidity risks.
b. Carrying amounts and fair values
The carrying amounts of certain short term financial assets and liabilities expected to be settled within 12 months, including cash and cash equivalents, trade payables and other payables were deemed to be equal to their fair values.
The fair values of other financial assets and financial liabilities, together with the carrying amounts shown in the statement of financial position, are as follows:

NOTE 7 - OPERATING SEGMENTS
Basis of segmentation
The Group's CFO (the chief operating decision maker) considers the whole operation as one operating segment while trying to ensure sufficient liquidity to meet the liabilities when due. The liquidity issues the Group and its joint ventures are currently facing create a more general decision making process which is different from a company or group of companies operating in a liquid position, hence, the Group's CFO makes decisions about resources and reviews operating results of business as one operating segment.
The basis of segmentation is the same as that presented in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015.

Comments in respect to the investment in MLP:
i. In the previous periods the joint venture continued to accumulate losses and thus the Company recognised a loss related to given loan to MLP that was part of the net investment and presented the loss as share of profit (loss) of equity-accounted investments in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.
ii. The Company did not provide any guarantees for the joint venture and has not incurred legal and constructive obligation on behalf of the joint venture; therefore losses are accounted for to the extent that the Company's interest is reduced to zero.
iii. Loans granted by the Company to joint venture - -- Denominated in CAD currency. -- The loans bear no interest.
-- No repayment date has been set. Repayment is expected from the proceeds of the sale of the related projects financed by the loans.
iv. Significant events during and after the reporting period:
1. On 13 January 2016, MLP completed the sale of two plots of land held for residential development purposes in Canada for a total cash consideration of CAD 20,227 thousands (EUR 13,095 thousands).
MLP recognised a profit before income tax in the amount of EUR 2,815 thousands (the Company's share was EUR 563 thousands and it was recognised under the "share of profit (loss) of equity-accounted investments, net of tax").
The Company's expected share of the distribution will be 20%, equating to approximately CAD 3.5 million (EUR 2.3 million).
After the reporting period a total amount of EUR 1,193 thousands has been distributed to the Company, the proceeds has been used for the full repayment of the loan granted by Real Property Investment (Guernsey) Limited, see note 9.b.
Based on prior agreements with ERD, all the net future proceeds generated from the Company's assets in Canada will be used to repay the outstanding debts of the Company to ERD.

b. On 10 March 2016, the Company and is wholly owned subsidiary, Eurobul Ltd. ("Eurobul") signed a loan agreement in the total amount of EUR 2,164 thousands with Real Property Investment (Guernsey) Limited ("RPIGL").
According to the contract with RPIGL, the loan could only be used for the full repayment of the bank loans granted by Bank Leumi Le-Israel Ltd. to Eurobul.
In order to secure the repayment of the loan the Company committed to use all funds generated from the following cash distributions:
a. The net distribution generated from the sale of wholly owned subsidiary Palace Engel Vokovice s.r.o. (see note d below).
During the reporting period, the Company paid RPIGL the funds according to this clause in the total amount of EUR 750 thousands.
b. The net distribution generated from the sale of the two plots in Canada (see note 8.a.iv.1).
After the reporting period, the Company paid RPIGL the funds according to this clause in the total amount of EUR 1,164 thousands.
c. 2/3 of the proceeds generated from the sale of any assets of the Company and Eurobul will be paid to RPIGL as soon as funds are available.
During the reporting period, the Company paid RPIGL the funds according to this clause in the total amount of EUR 250 thousands.
The loan is nominated in EUR and carries no interest.
RPIGL holds 6.44% of the voting rights and issued share capital of the Company. RPIGL is a related party of GBES Limited as they are controlled by the same shareholder.
c. On 14 March 2016 and 16 March 2016, Eurobul repaid two outstanding bank loans, granted by Bank Leumi Le-Israel Ltd. ("the lender bank"), in a total amount of EUR 2,179 thousands.
According to the terms of the agreement with the lender bank, in the case of full repayment of the two loans, the lender bank will waive the third bank loan in the total amount of EUR 576 thousands.
The lender bank waived the loan on 16 March 2016 and the Company recognised a finance income in the profit or loss in the total amount of EUR 576 thousands.
d. On 16 December 2015, Arces signed a conditional agreement to sell its shares and receivables in the wholly owned subsidiary Palace Engel Vokovice s.r.o ("Vokovice s.r.o").
On 14 March 2016 the sale was completed. As the plot of land held by Vokovice s.r.o was measured as of 31 December 2015 based on its net realisable value which was determined based on the transaction price in the conditional agreement the transaction did not generate any material result in the profit or loss at the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
The proceeds has been used for the repayment of the loan granted by Real Property Investment (Guernsey) Limited, see note 9.b.
e. During the reporting period, the transfer of 2,871,460 ordinary shares ("Shares") in ERD held by advocates Yuri Nechushtan and Eyal Neiger as receivers to GBES Limited ("GBES") has been completed.
The ownership of the Shares is to be split between GBES and the Gabay Group Limited, an Israeli real estate company, and its subsidiaries (the "Gabay Group"). As an interim measure, the Shares have been transferred to GBES, who are holding 1,133,372 ordinary shares in ERD in trust for the Gabay Group. As a result, GBES currently holds 2,871,460 ordinary shares in ERD (representing 53.0% of the voting right of ERD) and the Gabay Group currently holds 536,555 ordinary shares in ERD (representing 9.9% of the voting right of ERD).
Once the splitting of the Shares has taken place, GBES will hold 1,738,088 ordinary shares in ERD (representing 32.1% of the voting right of ERD) and the Gabay Group will hold a total of 1,669,927 ordinary shares in ERD (representing 30.9% of the voting right of ERD), including 536,555 ordinary shares in ERD held by the Gabay Group prior to the splitting of the Shares. The transfer of shares to the Gabay Group is yet to be completed.
ERD controls Engel General Developers Limited, which holds 68.35% of the issued share capital of Kimberly.
Accordingly, GBES currently holds a 36.2% economic interest in Kimberly and the Gabay Group currently holds a 6.8% economic interest in Kimberly.
In addition, Real Property Investment (Guernsey) Limited ("RPIGL") holds 6.4% of the voting rights and issued share capital of the Company. The shares of RPIGL and GBES are held by a discretionary settlement, of which certain members of the Morris family are potential beneficiaries, and which therefore currently has a combined economic interest in 42.6% of Kimberly.
