Additionally, in May 2022 the Group Management voluntarily decided to amend the import tax product codes under the higher import tax product code for e-bikes. As a result of the Group Management’s amendment, an additional import tax charge amounting to US$ 338,701 emerged and was recorded in property, plant and equipment accounts accordingly. The Group Management applied for amnesty within the scope of the Law No. 7440 on April 10, 2023 The amendment for the e-bikes was not yet approved by the Customs Authority as of the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements. Until such amendment is approved, there is a possibility that the Customs Authority will reject the application for amnesty. In that case, the Group may face a fine of US$ 1,053,213. Nevertheless, if the Customs Authority rejects the amnesty application the Group management will appeal the rejection decision, which the Management assesses to result in the Group’s favor. Based on these best estimations of the Group Management, since the probability of this fine of US$ 1,053,213 to occur is remote, no provision related to the customs tax amendments has been accrued in these consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022.
