These warrants have been considered as equity instruments.

See Note 34 to these Consolidated Financial Statements, for repurchases after the closing date of the fiscal year.

Inflation adjustment of share capital and treasury shares

 

The inflation adjustment related to share capital is allocated to an inflation adjustment reserve that forms part of shareholders' equity. The balance of this reserve could be applied only towards the issuance of common stock to shareholders of the Company.

 

Warrants

 

Common stock purchase options (warrants), issued by IRSA with common shares during the fiscal year and treated as equity instruments, are recorded as a separate component of the equity and are measured at cost; represented by fair value on the issue date using the Black-Scholes pricing model, which incorporates certain inputs assumptions, including shares price and volatility, risk-free interest rate, and warrant maturity.

 

At the time of the exercise of the warrants by the holders, the warrants are transferred to share capital for the nominal value of the issued shares and the difference with the product is recognized in the share premium.

 

Legal reserve

 

According to Law N° 19,550, 5% of the profit of the year is destined to the constitution of a legal reserve until it reaches the legal capped amount (20% of total capital). This legal reserve is not available for dividend distribution and can only be released to absorb losses.

 

Special reserve Resolution CNV 609/12 - Retained earnings

 

The CNV, through General Ruling N° 562/9 and 576/10, has provided for the application of Technical Resolutions N° 26 and 29 of the FACPCE, which adopt the IFRS, as issued by the IASB, for companies subject to the public offering regime ruled by Law 17,811, due to the listing of their shares or corporate notes, and for entities that have applied for authorization to be listed under the mentioned regime. The Group has applied IFRS, as issued by the IASB, for the first time in the year beginning July 1st, 2012, being its transition date July 1st, 2011. Pursuant to CNV General Ruling N° 609/12, the Company set up a special reserve reflecting the positive difference between the balance of retained earnings disclosed in the first Financial Statements prepared according to IFRS and the balance of retained earnings disclosed in the last Financial Statements prepared in accordance with previously effective accounting standards. The reserve recorded amounted to ARS 425, which as of June 30, 2017 were fully used to absorb the negative balances in the retained earnings account. During fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors decided to change the accounting policy of investment property from the cost method to the fair value method, as allowed by IAS 40. For this reason, as of the transition date, figures have been modified and, hence, the special reserve as set forth by General Ruling CNV N° 609/12 has been increased to ARS 23,164, which may only be reversed to be capitalized or to absorb potential negative balances under retained earnings.

 

Special reserve

 

The Ordinary and Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders on October 31, 2017 constituted a special reserve which was subsequently utilized to absorb losses and as of June 30, 2022 amounts to ARS 1,337.

 

Additional paid-in capital from treasury shares

 

Upon sale of treasury shares, the difference between the net realizable value of the treasury shares sold and the acquisition cost will be recognized, whether it is a gain or a loss, under the non-capitalized contribution account and will be known as “Treasury shares trading premium”.

 

Dividends

 

On October 26, 2020, our shareholders held an Ordinary and Extraordinary Meeting and approved an in kind dividend distribution equivalent to ARS 484 million (representative of ARS 0.84 per share) and payable in shares of IRSA CP. Our shareholders decided to consider IRSA CP’s ’quoted price per share as of October 23, 2020, which resulted amounted ARS 320 per share. Pursuant to that shareholders’ decision, we distributed 1,512,500 common shares of IRSA CP. We reflected this transaction on our financial statements as a change in equity, which generated a reduction of the equity attributable to the controlling shareholders totalling ARS 1,189 million restated for inflation as of June 30, 2022.

 

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 there was no distribution of dividends.
