LATAM LOGISTIC PROPERTIES, S.A. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(in U.S. Dollars)

 

1.NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

Latam Logistic Properties, S.A. (“LLP”) is a company organized in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Panama by public deed dated April 29, 2015, and registered before the Public Registry of Panama on May 4, 2015. On January 2, 2021, the General Assembly of Shareholders unanimously approved the transformation and conversion of Latam Logistic Properties, S.A. from a limited liability company to a corporation, resolution duly registered with the Public Registry of Panama on January 13, 2021. The registered office is located in BMW Plaza, 9th floor, Calle 50, Panama City, Republic of Panama.

 

Latam Logistic Properties, S.A., through its affiliates and subsidiaries (jointly referred to as “the Group” and individually as “Group entities”), is a fully integrated, internally managed real estate company that develops, owns and manages a diversified portfolio of warehouse logistics assets in Central and South America.

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Group as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 include the condensed consolidated interim financial information of LLP and its subsidiaries.

 

On August 15, 2023, LLP entered into a definitive business combination agreement (“Business Combination Agreement”) with two (“TWOA”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, Logistic Properties of the Americas Subco (“SPAC Merger Sub”), a Cayman Islands exempted company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Logistic Properties of the Americas (“LPA”), and LPA Panama Group Corp.(“Company Merger Sub”), a company incorporated under the laws of Panama and a wholly-owned subsidiary of LPA, for a proposed business combination among the parties (the “Business Combination”). On March 27, 2024, the Business Combination was consummated. As a result of the Business Combination, TWOA and LLP each became wholly-owned subsidiaries of LPA. Refer to Note 3 for more details.

 

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements comply with the requirements of International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as described in Note 2, and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s most recent audited consolidated financial statements and notes.

 

2.MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

 

a.Basis of Accounting - The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard IAS 34 as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except certain investment properties that are measured at fair value as of end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies included in the most recent audited consolidated financial statements and notes. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

 

5

 

 

The Group management believes that all adjustments that are required for a proper presentation of the financial information are incorporated in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

 

b.Going Concern – The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”), which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

As described further in Note 11, the Group obtained a waiver relating to compliance with the debt service coverage ratio as required by its loan covenants with Bancolombia, S.A. (“Bancolombia”) for the assessment on December 31, 2023. The next testing period for the covenants will occur on June 30, 2024. In September 2023, the Group restructured its Bancolombia debt to defer principal payments until May 2024, at which point the Group will have 12 months to pay this accrued principal and interest in full, at no additional cost. The outstanding Bancolombia loan balance as of March 31, 2024 was $41.6 million, with $1.6 million classified within current liabilities on the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position.

 

While the Group has fulfilled all debt service payments required by its lending agreements in all jurisdictions to date, current interest rates in Colombia make it probable that further debt waivers or modification of loan covenants will be necessary prior to June 30, 2024, in order to comply with the debt service coverage ratio covenant. The Group’s lending agreements with Bancolombia are only collateralized by four Colombian investment properties, which were valued at $93.0 million and $90.3 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. No other guarantees have been provided by the Group’s other subsidiaries that would put the Group’s operations outside of Colombia at risk in event of foreclosure. While the $2.3 million in revenue generated by the Group’s Colombian operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 represents approximately 22.3% of the Group’s consolidated revenues for the period, the Group’s operations outside of Colombia are expected to be profitable and generate adequate liquidity to provide for continued operations. In the event that the Group is unable to obtain further debt waivers, restructure the debt, or otherwise repay the Bancolombia loan, there is a possibility Bancolombia may initiate proceedings to foreclose on its Colombian properties without further recourse. However, this would not create material uncertainty as to the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in regard to its operations outside of Colombia. Additionally, with the March 27, 2024 consummation of the Group’s Business Combination with TWOA, the Group has gained access to additional capital which further supports the Group’s ability to finance ongoing operations. The Company believes that the capital raised coupled with the current cash projections create enough resources to prevent a foreclosure scenario (Refer to Note 3 for additional information on the Business Combination).

 

c.New and amended IFRS accounting standards that are effective for the current year

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements and notes as of March 31, 2024 and 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are based on accounting policies consistent with those described in Note 2 to the Group’s most recent audited consolidated financial statements and notes. All the new and amended IFRS accounting standards effective as of March 31, 2024 that are relevant to the Group have already been early adopted before January 1, 2024. See details below:

 

Amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements - Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current (“2020 Amendment”) - The amendments clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period, specify that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability, explain that rights are in existence if covenants are complied with at the end of the reporting period, and introduce a definition of “settlement” to make clear that settlement refers to the transfer to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets or services. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. The Group has early adopted the amendment as of January 1, 2023 together with the 2022 Amendment mentioned below.

Amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements - Non-Current Liabilities with Covenants (“2022 Amendment”) - The amendments specify that only covenants that an entity is required to comply with on or before the end of the reporting period affect the entity’s right to defer settlement of a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date (and therefore must be considered in assessing the classification of the liability as current or non-current). Such covenants affect whether the right exists at the end of the reporting period, even if compliance with the covenant is assessed only after the reporting date (e.g. a covenant based on the entity’s financial position at the reporting date that is assessed for compliance only after the reporting date).

 

The IASB also specifies that the right to defer settlement of a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date is not affected if an entity only has to comply with a covenant after the reporting period. However, if the entity’s right to defer settlement of a liability is subject to the entity complying with covenants within twelve months after the reporting period, an entity discloses information that enables users of financial statements to understand the risk of the liabilities becoming repayable within twelve months after the reporting period. This would include information about the covenants (including the nature of the covenants and when the entity is required to comply with them), the carrying amount of related liabilities and facts and circumstances, if any, that indicate that the entity may have difficulties complying with the covenants.

 

The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. The Group early adopted the amendment as of January 1, 2023.

 

d.New and amended IFRS Accounting Standards issued but not yet effective

 

At the date of authorization of these financial statements, the Group has not applied the following new IFRS Accounting Standards that have been issued but are not yet effective:

 

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements – On April 9, 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements to improve reporting of financial performance. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements while carrying forward many of the requirements in IAS 1. The new Accounting Standard introduces significant changes to the structure of a group’s income statement and new principles for aggregation and disaggregation of information. IFRS 18 applies for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027. Earlier application is permitted. The Group is currently evaluating the impact from the adoption of IFRS 18 on its consolidated financial statements.

3.BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT

 

On August 15, 2023, LLP entered into a Business Combination Agreement with TWOA, SPAC Merger Sub, and Company Merger Sub, for a proposed Business Combination. Under the Business Combination Agreement, at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Closing”), among other matters, (a) SPAC Merger Sub will merge with and into TWOA, with TWOA continuing as the surviving company, and, in connection therewith, each issued and outstanding security of TWOA immediately prior to the effective time of the Business Combination will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be canceled, in exchange for the right of the holder thereof to receive a substantially equivalent security of LPA; (b) Company Merger Sub will merge with and into LLP, with LLP continuing as the surviving company, and, in connection therewith, the ordinary shares of LLP (“LLP Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Business Combination will be canceled in exchange for the right of the holders thereof to receive ordinary shares of LPA (“LPA Ordinary Shares”); and (c) as a result of the mergers, TWOA and LLP will each become wholly-owned subsidiaries of LPA, and LPA Ordinary Shares will be listed on The New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “LPA”, all upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.

 

On February 16, 2024, TWOA entered into a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with certain subscriber (“PIPE Investor”) to purchase 1,500,000 TWOA Class A Ordinary Shares at a price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $15,000,000, in a private placement to be consummated simultaneously with the Closing.

 

The Business Combination was consummated on March 27, 2024. Following the Business Combination, the ownership structure of LPA was as follows:

 

   Number of Common Shares   % of Ownership 
LPA Ordinary Shares issued to TWOA shareholders   3,897,747    12.3%
LPA Ordinary Shares converted from legacy LLP equity holders   26,312,000    83.0%
LPA Ordinary Shares issued to PIPE Investor   1,500,000    4.7%
Total   31,709,747    100.0%

 

The impacts of the Business Combination to LLP are summarized as follows:

 

Equity structure of LLP

 

Upon the effectiveness of the Business Combination, all 168,142,740 outstanding LLP Shares were cancelled and 168,142,740 shares were reissued in the same par amount of $1.00. Upon Closing, all LLP Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing were effectively contributed to LPA in exchange for their right to receive 26,312,000 LPA Ordinary Shares. As a result of the transaction, the total number of legally outstanding LLP Shares did not change and LLP became a wholly-owned subsidiary of LPA.

 

Transaction-related costs incurred by LLP

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, LLP incurred transaction-related costs of $4,172,375, recorded in other expenses in the condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income, primarily consisting of professional service fees such as legal and accounting services pertinent to the Business Combination. Up until March 31, 2024, LLP incurred transaction-related costs totaling $12,478,140, of which $3,796,768 has not yet been paid. As of March 31, 2024, $2,385,261 of the amount not yet paid is recorded within accounts payable and accrued expenses and $1,411,507 is recorded within other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, LLP paid $4,613,851 for transaction-related costs, of which $3,750,000 was paid with transaction proceeds. See Note 6 for more details.

Cash bonus to management

 

In connection with the Business Combination, certain LLP executives were granted a one-time cash bonus totaling $285,000 at Closing, recorded in general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and have been recorded within accounts payable and accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position as of March 31, 2024. The bonus is expected to be paid out within six months after Closing.

 

Transaction proceeds LLP received on behalf of LPA

 

Upon Closing, LLP received transaction proceeds related to the Business Combination of $15,012,896 on behalf of LPA, which was recorded in due to affiliates on the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position. Immediately following the transfer, LLP disbursed $3,750,000 of the proceeds to pay for the transaction-related costs it has incurred.

 

Loan receivable from Latam Logistics Investments, LLC (“LLI”)

 

As further discussed in Note 15, as of January 1, 2024, the Group’s loans to LLI were in default status due to non-payment following the maturity date of December 31, 2023. The Group subsequently provided notice of the default to LLI. On March 12, 2024, an assignment agreement (“Assignment Agreement”) was executed, pursuant to which the loan receivable from LLI was considered settled upon Closing through the foreclosure of the collateralized LLP Shares held by LLI.

 

Since all the outstanding LLP Shares owned by LLI were reassigned to LLP first and then cancelled, reissued and contributed to LPA at Closing, it is deemed that LLP has effectively issued a stock dividend to LPA. Consequently, LLP recorded a stock dividend of $24,481,600 representing the fair value of the collateralized LLP Shares foreclosed upon Closing. The fair value of the collateralized LLP Shares exceeded the carrying value of the derecognized loan receivable of $9,765,972 by $14,715,628 and is presented within additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position. Additionally, the Group’s weighted average shares outstanding and basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2023 have been recast to retroactively reflect the impact the stock dividend for earnings per share purpose.

 

The derecognition of the loan receivable from LLI and the recording of the stock dividend represents a non-cash financing activity of the Group in the three months ended March 31, 2024.

 

Refer to detailed discussion around the loan receivable from LLI in Note 15 and the (loss) earnings per share impact in Note 12.

Note 7 contains further information of the Group’s revenue based on segment and geography.

 

The Group, through its subsidiaries, has entered into various operating leases agreements with customers for the rental of its investment properties. Most of the Group’s lease agreements associated with the investment properties contain an initial lease term from 5 to 10 years and generally include renewal options for one or more additional terms of varying lengths. The Group’s weighted average lease term remaining on leases in the operating properties and properties under development, based on the square footage of the leases in effect as of March 31, 2024 and 2023 was 5.1 years and 6.0 years, respectively.

 

These leases are based on a minimum rental payment in United States Dollars (USD) for properties located in Costa Rica and Peru, and Colombian Pesos (COP) for properties in Colombia, plus maintenance fees and recoverable expenses, and guarantee deposits associated with the agreements, which are commonly used for covering any repair, improvement tasks or as a final payment when the lease agreement ends.

7.SEGMENT REPORTING

 

The Group has three operating segments, based on geographic regions consisting of Colombia, Peru, and Costa Rica. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), the Group’s Chief Executive Officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess the Group’s financial and operational performance. The CODM receives information and evaluates the business from a geographic perspective and reviews the Group’s internal reporting by geography in order to assess performance and allocate resources. As a result, the Group has determined the business operates in three distinct operating segments based on geography.

 

The three geographic segments, Colombia, Peru, and Costa Rica primarily derive revenue from various operating lease agreements with customers for the rental of warehouses. Each of these locations and corresponding operations are presented and managed and separately. The operating segments are each reportable segments, and aggregation of segments is not applied. Unallocated revenue consists of other revenue streams earned by operating subsidiaries that are not allocated to segments for CODM’s review. Unallocated revenue or expenses consist of certain corporate general and administrative expenses, investment property valuation gain, interest income from affiliates, financing costs and certain transaction-related expenses that are not allocated to segments for CODM’s review, as well as financing costs for the bridge loan held by the parent entity.

 

There was no inter-segment revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

 

The tables below present information by segment presented to the CODM and reconciliations to the Group’s consolidated amounts.

 

The Group evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on net operating income. Segment net operating income consists of segment investment property rental revenue less segment investment property operating expense.

9.INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

 

As of March 31, 2024, the Group obtained a valuation from independent appraisers in order to determine the fair value of its investment properties. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair values are included in the condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income in the period in which they arise.

 

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

 

Level 1 - Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 - Inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

 

Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, among others, statistics information, and own Group’s information, in some instances based on the information provided by some independent experts.

 

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, all owned investment properties are guaranteeing the Group’s debt.

 

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, investment properties were as follows:

Disclosed below is the valuation technique used to measure the fair value of investment properties, along with the significant unobservable inputs used.

 

Valuation Techniques - This fair value measurement is considered Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, except where otherwise noted below.

 

Operating Properties - The valuation model considers a combination of the present value of net cash flows to be generated by the property, the direct capitalization of the net operating income, and the replacement cost to construct a similar property.

 

i.The present value of net cash flows generated by the property takes into account the expected rental growth rate, vacancy periods, occupancy rate, lease incentive costs such as rent-free periods and other costs not paid by tenants. The expected net cash flows are discounted using risk adjusted discount rates. Among other factors, the discount rate estimation considers the quality of a building and its location, tenant credit quality and lease terms.

 

ii.The direct capitalization method. This method involves capitalizing a fully leased net operating income estimate by an appropriate yield. This approach is best utilized with stabilized assets, where there is little volatility in the net income and the growth prospects are also stable. It is most commonly used with single tenant investments or stabilized investments. involves capitalizing the property net operating income at a market capitalization rate. The net operating income is determined by using the property Effective Gross Income (EGI) net of operating expenses. The EGI is determined by the property’s Potential Gross Income (PGI) through analysis of the property actual historic income and an analysis of competitive current market income rates and deducting the PGI with an estimate for vacancy and collection.

 

iii.The cost approach. The cost approach involves the estimation of the replacement cost of the building and site improvements that a prudent and rational person would pay no more for a property than the cost to construct a similar and competitive property - assuming no undue delay in the process.

 

Properties Under Development - The valuation model considers the present value of net cash flows, direct capitalization, and the cost approaches adjusted by the net present value of the cost to complete and vacancy in the properties under construction.

 

Land Bank - The valuation model used for the land portfolio is a combination of sales comparison approach (or market approach), cost approach, residual land value approach and the discounted cash flow method. For undeveloped land, the market approach is used. For land that is under development, the market approach is used in conjunction with the cost approach and residual land value approach, and the discounted cash flow approach, to determine the fair value of the finished lots.

 

i.The sales comparison approach. This approach compares sales or listing of similar properties with the subject property using the price per square feet (Level 2 input). This approach is given supporting weight in this analysis because of the well-supported range of value within this approach and the likelihood that the subject could be purchased by an owner-user.

 

ii.The cost approach. This approach is based on the principle of substitution that a prudent and rational person would pay no more than the cost to construct a similar property. This approach generally considers estimated replacement cost of the land and the site improvements (e.g., infrastructure) and estimated depreciation accrued to the improvements (Level 2 input).

 

iii.The residual land value approach. This approach involves residual amount after deducting all known or anticipated costs required to complete the development from the anticipated value of the project when completed after consideration of the risks associated with the completion of the project (Level 2 input).

Ending balance  $267,991,549   $211,617,239 

 

Financial Debt Covenants – The loans described above are subject to certain affirmative covenants, including, among others, (i) reporting of financial information; and (ii) maintenance of corporate existence, the security interest in the properties subject to the loan and appropriate insurance for such properties; and (iii) maintenance of certain financial ratios. In addition, the loans are subject to certain negative covenants that restrict Latam Logistic Properties ability to, among other matters, incurs in additional indebtedness under or create additional liens on the properties subject to the loans, change its corporate structure, make certain restricted payments, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, amend certain material contracts.

 

22

 

 

The loans contain, among others, the following events of default: (i) non-payment; (ii) false representations; (iii) failure to comply with covenants; (iv) inability to generally pay debts as they become due; (v) any bankruptcy or insolvency event; (vi) disposition of the subject properties; or (vii) change of control of the subject properties.

 

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the group was compliant with, or otherwise had waivers for all debt covenants with its lenders.

 

The Group received waivers for the requirement to comply with the Banco Davivienda and Bancolombia financial covenants on February 17, 2023 and September 25, 2023, respectively. In April 2023, the Group refinanced its Banco Davivienda debt, thereby relieving any covenant requirement with that lender. The Bancolombia waiver was effective through the testing period of December 31, 2023, and ratio compliance testing will next be applicable for this loan in June 2024. The outstanding Bancolombia loan balance as of March 31, 2024 was $41.6 million, with $1.6 million classified within current liabilities on the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position. The Group was in compliance with all the other debt covenants as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024.

 

12.(LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

The Group determines basic (loss) earnings per share based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The Group computes diluted earnings per share on the weighted average number of shares outstanding combined with the incremental weighted average effect from all outstanding potentially dilutive instruments. There were no potentially dilutive instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

 

The calculated basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, were as follows:

 

   Three months ended March 31, 
   2024   2023 
         
(Loss) earnings per share – basic and diluted  $(0.009)  $0.040 
Net (loss) earnings attributed to owner(s) of the Group  $(1,561,996)  $7,391,220 
Weighted average number of shares – basic and diluted   182,121,162    182,763,848 

 

As discussed in detail in Note 3, as part of the foreclosure of the collateralized LLP Shares held by LLI, LLP issued a stock dividend to LPA with no increase in resources. As a result of this, the Group’s weighted average shares outstanding used in the basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share have been recast to retroactively reflect the impact of the stock dividend as if the event had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

 

13.INCOME TAX

 

LLP is a foreign corporation that is not subject to United States federal income taxes. Further, LLP is a company organized in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Panama and is not subject to income tax in Panama. LLP has a diversified portfolio, operating in Costa Rica, Colombia and Peru through various subsidiaries located in the local countries. The income tax rates applicable to the LLP in Costa Rica, Colombia and Peru are 30.0%, 35.0% and 29.5%, respectively.

 

The Group’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are 99.7% and 8.3%, respectively. The effective income tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were different than the local statutory income tax rates primarily due to the change in deferred tax assets or liabilities related to fluctuations in currency translation for investment properties and debt, movement in unrecognized deferred tax assets, foreign tax rate differential, and current income tax on intercompany dividends.

In July 2020, the loan receivable from LLI was increased to $4,165,000 from $3,015,000 and the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2023. The loan receivable from LLI was further increased to $4,850,000 from $4,165,000 in June 2021, and then to $6,950,00 in May 2022.

 

The principal amount of $6,265,000 of this loan receivable bears an annual interest rate of 9.0% and the remaining principal amount of this loan receivable does not bear any interest. Principal and interest are due at maturity. In the event of a default, the interest rate increases to an annual rate of 20% until the amount is settled. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Group recognized interest income of $302,808 in interest income from affiliates in the condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income.

As of January 1, 2024, the Group’s loans to LLI were in default status due to non-payment following the maturity date of December 31, 2023. On March 12, 2024, LLI entered into an Assignment Agreement with LLP, pursuant to which LLI unconditionally and irrevocably assigned in favor of LLP the right to receive the LPA Ordinary Shares upon the closing of the Business Combination. As part of the Assignment Agreement, the Group agreed to waive its right to receive the corresponding LPA Ordinary Shares. Upon Closing, the loans receivables from LLI of $9,765,972 were considered settled through the foreclosure of the collateralized LLP Shares held by LLI.

 

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the loan receivable from affiliates balances outstanding were as follows:

Additional transactions with key management personnel – A related party entity provided $187,863 and $137,628 of management and advisory services to the Group for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

16.FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

 

Interest rate risk - Interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to its long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates. Therefore, variations in interest rates at the reporting date would affect profit or loss.

 

Liquidity Risk – Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, to the extent possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring in unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation, and to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank deposits and loans.

 

Exposure to Liquidity Risk – The following tables detail the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the end of reporting period. The amounts are gross and undiscounted cash flows and include contractual interest payments.

17.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Commitments

 

As of March 31, 2024, the Group had agreed construction contracts with third parties and is consequently committed to future capital in respect to investment property under development of $4,920,780. There are no contractual commitments in respect of completed investment property.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Group may be party to legal proceedings. On September 13, 2023, the Group has become aware that a lawsuit was filed against a subsidiary of the Group by a construction company for services rendered prior to the reporting date. The Group has recorded a provision in relation to this matter prior to January 1, 2024. On February 29, 2024, the Group settled with the counterparty for a total settlement amount of $237,226.

 

On November 30, 2023, the Group became aware that a lawsuit was filed against them by a former employee of the Group who rendered services for the Group prior to the reporting date. The Group is currently vigorously defending this lawsuit and believes the claims are without merit. The Group is in the process of analyzing this matter but currently does not have a sufficient basis for concluding whether any loss is probable.

 

As of March 31, 2024, the group is not involved in any other litigation or arbitration proceedings for which the Group believes it is not adequately insured or indemnified, or which, if determined adversely, would have a material adverse effect on the Group’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

18.ACCOUNTING POLICY CHANGE AND RESTATEMENT

 

Accounting Policy Changes

 

The Group has renamed captions in its condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to provide a more accurate description of each line item and align with commonly used terminology by industry participants.

 

Additionally, in an effort to enhance the clarity of financial information for users of the financial statements, the Group has elected to adjust prior accounting policies related to financial statement presentation. As such, certain amounts in the prior periods presented have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation.

 

On the condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income, the result was: (i) grouping all debt-related costs, such as, amortization of financing costs and other expenses, as a single financing costs financial statement line item; and (ii) collapsing depreciation and amortization, the amortization of right-of-use assets, and office lease costs into general and administrative expense. These reclassification changes, and elimination of subtotals and headers do not constitute errors because they represent changes in presentation from one acceptable method to another acceptable method under IFRS. They also have no effect on previously reported profit, total assets or liabilities, or net cash flows.

 

Refer to the tables in the below in “Description of Restatement Matters and Restatement Adjustments” section for a comparison of previous captions and current captions as well as the impact of policy changes by financial statement line item.

 

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

 

The Group is restating its condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive gain (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023, which were originally filed with the Superintendencia Financiera de Colombia (“SFC”).

 

Description of Restatement Matters and Restatement Adjustments

 

The categories of the restatement adjustments and their impact on previously reported condensed consolidated interim financial statements are described below.

 

(a)Fair value adjustment of investment properties - In accordance with the fair market value model outlined within IAS 40, Investment Property, the Group is required to measure the investment properties as of the end of each reporting period. The Group corrected the carrying value of its investment properties to fair value based on the valuation obtained from an independent appraiser, recognizing a $11,566,567 increase to investment property valuation gain for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

 

(b)Adjustments related to debt modification versus extinguishment accounting – The Group made certain accounting adjustments to appropriately reflect the accounting treatment of the Group’s historical debt refinancing activities, either as debt extinguishments or debt modifications, in accordance with IFRS 9. Specifically, in the condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income, the Group recognized a gain on debt modification of $121,038 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, Additionally, the Group recorded incremental amortization expenses of $252,924 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

 

27

 

 

(c)Adjustment related to Peru Airport right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities - The Group made accounting adjustments to appropriately reflect the accounting treatment of ROU assets and lease liabilities related to the ground lease in Peru, in accordance with IFRS 16, Leases. The Group recognized interest expense of $58,272 related to the ground lease in the condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

 

(d)Adjustment related to investment property valuation gain and rental revenue due to lease termination – The Group made accounting adjustments to correctly reflect the accounting treatment of a lease termination, in accordance with IFRS 16, Lease, and IAS 40, Investment Property. Specifically, although in January 2023, the Group appropriately wrote off the rent leveling asset balance associated with the termination of the lease, it should have impacted investment property valuation gain (or loss), rather than the contra-revenue account. This is because that the rent leveling constitutes an integral component of the fair value of the investment properties and is therefore accounted under IAS 40. As a result, the Group reclassed $1,586,004 from rental revenue to investment property valuation gain for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

 

(e)Classification of loans to tenants and the associated repayment on the condensed consolidated interim statements of cash flows – The Group reclassified loans to tenants and associated repayment from operating activities to investing activities on the condensed consolidated interim statements of cash flows because the loans extended to tenants and the resulting repayments constitute financing provided by the Group to the tenants, and should therefore be categorized as investing activities, not operating activities on the statements of cash flows. The net amount of the correcting adjustment was $183,286 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. There was no impact to the condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income.

 

(f)Adjustment related to expected credit loss calculation – The Group made accounting adjustments to appropriately reflect the accounting treatment of expected credit loss in accordance with IFRS 9. Specifically, in the condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income, the Group recognized investment property operating expense of $155,904 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

 

(g)Tax adjustment - The Group adjusted the income tax expense by $5,180,925 recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023. These adjustments are attributable to a portion of the fair value for investment properties, which previously was not considered in the measurement of the deferred tax liability.

 

The Group adjusted the income tax expense by $3,840,216 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 through deferred tax liability related to the debt denominated in USD which, when converted into local currency for purposes of the tax return calculation, result in a currency gain or loss. Deferred taxes are recognized for the unrealized basis difference between the local currency and USD debt balances.

 

The Group adjusted income tax expense by $228,687 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, for the tax impact of the other non-tax restatement adjustments.

 

(h)Other adjustments – There are other restatement matters otherwise not described in items (a) through (g) of this Note. The related adjustments are not material individually and in aggregate to the Group’s condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Specifically, in the condensed consolidated interim statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income, the Group had a decrease of ($37,217) in profit before taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The aggregate impact of these misstatements to the Group’s condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was an increase of $11,426 in net cash generated by operating activities, a decrease of $9,627 in net cash used in investing activities, and a net increase to cash and equivalents of $1,799.
