Best Regards, Kai Gerhard SCHRICKEL President of Board of Directors 16 d) Assessment of the House Appliances Sector Overall in year 2014, we see an production increase of 3 % in the six main product groups of refrigerators, deep freezers, washing machines, dryers, dishwashers and ovens. In this category white goods production reached 22.595.875 units in 2014 with an increase of 3 % compared to year 2013 where it was 21.940.026 units. Biggest increase was in washing machines and ovens with a rate of 10 %. Looking at the product groups; highest production numbers was realized in refrigerators. This was followed by washing machines with 6.307.848 units, by ovens with 4.247.037 units, by dishwashers with 3.483.152 units, by deep freezers with 963.064 and then by dryers with 935.908 units. The sector increased its export by 5 % compared to the previous year and realized an export of 16.903.600 units. In exports washing machines took the first place with 4.766.886 units whereas the leader in domestic market was refrigerators with 1.907.562 units. Nine months installment restriction for shopping with credit card brought by the Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency had a negative effect on the business of the white goods traders who generally realize their sales by this way. In the year 2014 domestic sales decreased by 2 % compared to the previous year. e) Company Performance BSH Turkey realized a production performance of 5.445.542 units as of end of 2014, 783.147 units more compared to year 2013. Looking at the sales figures, total sales, which was 6.570.444 units in 2013, reached 7.312.991 units as of end of 2014. If we look at the sales ratios, we see that only TV and AC sales decreased by a limited ratio and that sales ratios of coolers, washing machines, dishwashers, ovens, cookers, heater groups and small home appliances increased considerably. The sales of washing machines showed an increase of 19 %, sales of coolers increased by 8 %, dishwashers by 6 % and oven by 16 %. Small home appliances this year increased its sales by 17 %. Net domestic sales which was TL 1.934.409.179 in 2013 realized as TL 2.077.189.154 in 2014. Export sales increased up to TL 2.041.483.507 as of end of 2014; it was TL 1.596.293.768 in year 2013. f) The Trend and Expectations We expect the Turkish economy to show growth around 3-4%. The overall market growth for the white goods is estimated to be 3%. As there are elections in June we’re expecting a positive atmosphere till June. The medium and long-term outlook for the construction sector remains optimistic due to growing population and the rapid urban development as well as the rising incomes in Turkey. This is a positive outlook for us for 2015. The loss of consumer confidence is a negative factor for us. Price competition is still continuing in the sector which is affecting us negatively. The decrease of credit card installments is a negative factor for the whole sector. 17 g) Production and Sales Quantities i.

In capital management, the Company seeks to ensure the continuity of its operations, on one hand, and aims to increase its profit by making the most efficient use of the debt and equity balance, on the other hand. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk as a result of its activities. The Company’s risk management program generally focuses on minimizing the potential adverse effects of uncertainty in the financial markets on the Company’s financial performance. The Company uses derivative products to protect itself from various financial risks. Risk management is conducted by the financing department in line with policies approved by the Board of Directors. Concerning the risk policies, the Company’s financing department defines and evaluates financial risk and uses instruments to mitigate it in cooperation with the Company’s operating units. 18 Market risk The Company’s activities are exposed mainly to financial risks relating to changes in the exchange rate and in the interest rate. To keep the risks relating to the exchange rate and the interest rate under control, the Company uses forward currency buying/selling contracts which are employed to protect from the exchange rate risk arising from exports of products. Transactions in foreign currency result in currency risk, which is managed through forward currency buying/selling contracts entered into on the basis of approved policies. Credit risk The Company is exposed to credit risk due to its trade receivables arising from sales on credit and to its deposits with banks. The trade receivables are to a large extent from affiliated companies. In the management of the risk from non-affiliated companies, action is taken on the principle of securing receivables at the highest rate possible. The types of security used in this context are guarantee letters, property mortgages, and cheques/notes received in security. In risk control for unsecured receivables from customers, individual limits are determined following a credit rating of the customer in view of the customer’s financial position and past experience and other relevant factors, and the use of the credit limits in question is continuously monitored. In the management of financial assets, action is taken on the same credit risk management principles. Investments are made in those instruments which have the highest liquidity, paying attention to the credit rating of the organization with which the transaction is made. Liquidity risk The Board of Directors has the main responsibility for liquidity risk management.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Financial Reporting Standards (Continued) Financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern on the basis that the entity will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) New and amended International Financial Reporting Standards (Continued) present obligation as a result of a past event (known as an obligating event). The interpretation clarifies that the obligating event that gives rise to a liability to pay a levy is the activity described in the relevant legislation that triggers the payment of the levy.

These amendments mean that many funds and similar entities will be exempt from consolidating most of their subsidiaries. Instead, they will measure them at fair value through profit or loss. The amendments give an exception to entities that meet an ‘investment entity’ definition and which display particular characteristics. Changes have also been made IFRS 12 to introduce disclosures that an investment entity needs to make. The Standard is not applicable for the Company and did not have any impact on the financial position or performance of the Company. New IFRS standards, amendments and IFRICs effective after 1 January 2015 - Annual improvements 2012; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2014. These amendments include changes from the 2010-12 cycle of the annual improvements project, that affect 7 standards: - IFRS 2, Share-based payment - IFRS 3, Business Combinations - IFRS 8, Operating segments - IFRS 13, Fair value measurement - IAS 16, Property, plant and equipment and IAS 38, Intangible assets - Consequential amendments to IFRS 9, Financial instruments, IAS 37, Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets, and - IAS 39, Financial instruments – Recognition and measurement It is not estimated that the standard has an impact on the financial position or performance of the Company. - Annual improvements 2013; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2014.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) New and amended International Financial Reporting Standards (Continued) - IFRS 14 ‘Regulatory deferral accounts’, effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. IFRS 14, ‘Regulatory deferral accounts’ permits first–time adopters to continue to recognise amounts related to rate regulation in accordance with their previous GAAP requirements when they adopt IFRS. However, to enhance comparability with entities that already apply IFRS and do not recognise such amounts, the standard requires that the effect of rate regulation must be presented separately from other items. It is not estimated that the Standard has an impact on the financial position or performance of the Company. - Amendment to IFRS 11, 'Joint arrangements' on acquisition of an interest in a joint operation, effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. This amendment adds new guidance on how to account for the acquisition of an interest in a joint operation that constitutes a business. The amendments specify the appropriate accounting treatment for such acquisitions. The standard is not applicable for the Company and did not have any impact on the financial position or performance of the Company. - Amendment to IAS 16, 'Property, plant and equipment' and IAS 38, 'Intangible assets', on depreciation and amortisation, effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. In this amendment the it has clarified that the use of revenue based methods to calculate the depreciation of an asset is not appropriate because revenue generated by an activity that includes the use of an asset generally reflects factors other than the consumption of the economic benefits embodied in the asset. It is also clarified that revenue is generally presumed to be an inappropriate basis for measuring the consumption of the economic benefits embodied in an intangible asset. The standard is not applicable for the Company and did not have any impact on the financial position or performance of the Company. - Amendments to IAS 27, ‘Separate financial statements’ on the equity method, effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. These amendments allow entities to use the equity method to account for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates in their separate financial statements. The standard is not applicable for the Company and did not have any impact on the financial position or performance of the Company. - Amendments to IFRS 10, ‘Consolidated financial statements’ and IAS 28, ‘Investments in associates and joint ventures’, effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. These amendments address an inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and those in IAS 28 in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The main consequence of the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary. The standard is not applicable for the Company and did not have any impact on the financial position or performance of the Company. - IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’, effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017. IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ is a converged standard from the IASB and FASB on revenue recognition.

Although these estimates and assumptions are based on all management information related to the events and transactions, actual results may differ from them. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for the next reporting period are outlined below: (i) Provisions The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. In this context, as a result of past events, the Company recognises assembly provisions for pending assembly services for sales, workmanship and material expenses incurred by services for free within the scope of product warranties. Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and when reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. In this context, the Company has evaluated the law suits and court cases opened against it at 31 December 2014 and for the ones where the Company estimates more than 50% probability of losing them necessary provisions are accounted for in the financial statements (Note 11). (ii) Provision for trade receivables The Company calculates the provision for impairment of trade receivables to cover the estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers’ to make required payments. The estimates used in evaluating the adequacy of the provision for impairment of trade receivables are based on the aging of the trade receivable balances and the trend of collection performance. The Company considers that the accounting estimate related to the provision for impairment of trade receivables is a critical accounting estimate since it involves assumptions about future customer’ behaviour and the resulting future cash collections. If the financial condition of the customer were to be deteriorating, actual write-offs of currently existing trade receivables may be higher than expected and may exceed the level of the provision recognised at 31 December 2014. 50 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.3 (iii) BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (Continued) Warranty provision Warranty provisions represents, fair value of management’s best estimations related with the amount of economic benefit outflow which is necessary for the warranty programme that company assures for the product sold. These provisions, estimated on the basis of prior period trends on the returns; could be change as a result of new launched products, production processes or other facts which affect output quality. (iv) Other current assets Management of the Company accounted the paid VAT amount including the interest and penalties under other current assets since the collection is possible in the light of developments and in accordance with the Company’s legal advisor and external legal counsels in the lawsuits and due to the retrospective application of law and legislation provisions that entered into force at a later date (Note 15). 2.4 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Revenue recognition Revenue is recognised on an accrual basis on fair value given that it is fairly measurable and is highly likely for the transaction to result in the inflow of economic benefits to the Company. Net sales are achieved through subtracting discounts and commissions. If the sales transaction contains a financing element, the fair value of the sales is measured through discounting future collections using the effective interest method from the nominal sales value. The difference between the fair value and the nominal value of sales is recognised as financial income for the relevant period on an accrual basis. Sale of goods Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when all the following conditions are satisfied: The Company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods, The Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold, The amount of revenue can be measured reliably It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and The costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of transactions can be measured reliably. Rendering of services and other sales Revenue associated with the transaction involving the rendering of services and other sales can be recognised on an accrual basis from its fair value, given that the service has been rendered, the defining elements of revenue have been fulfilled, the fair value of the transaction can be measured reliably and the inflow of economic benefits to the Company are probable. 51 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.4 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Interest revenue: Interest revenue is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal sum outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realisable value less costs to sell. Cost of inventories comprises the purchase cost and the cost of bringing inventories into their present location and condition. Cost is determined by the monthly moving weighted average method. The cost of borrowings is not included in the cost of inventories. Net realisable value less cost to sell is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost necessary to make the sale. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Properties in the process of construction for production, rental or administrative purposes, or for purposes not yet determined, are carried at cost, less any recognised impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts to their residual values over their estimated useful lives. The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets, other than land and properties under construction, over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at each year end, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. 52 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.4 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised within “Other (losses)/gains – net” in the income statement. Intangible assets Licenses Separately acquired licences are shown at historical cost. Licences acquired in a business combination are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Licences have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of licences over their estimated useful lives. Computer software Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and use the specific software. These costs are amortised over their estimated useful lives (one year). Impairment of assets At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset other than deferred tax asset, intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, financial assets at fair value and goodwill may be impaired. When an indication of impairment exists, the Company estimates the recoverable values of such assets. Impairment exists if the carrying value of an asset or a cash generating unit is greater than its recoverable amount which is the higher of value in use or fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from an asset or cash-generating unit. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash flows from other assets or group of assets. An impairment loss recognised in prior period for an asset is reversed if the subsequent increase in the asset’s recoverable amount is caused by a specific event since the last impairment loss was recognised. Such a reversal amount cannot be higher than the previously recognised impairment loss and shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortisation or depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such a reversal is recognized as income in the financial statements. Borrowing costs The company applies TAS 23 revised since 1 January 2009. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss when they are incurred. 53 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.4 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Offsetting All items with significant amounts and nature, even with similar characteristics, are presented separately in the financial statements. Insignificant amounts are grouped and presented by means of items having similar substance and function. When the nature of transactions and events necessitate offsetting, presentation of these transactions and events over their net amounts or recognition of the assets after deducting the related impairment are not considered a violation of the rule of nonoffsetting. As a result of the transactions in the normal course of business, revenue other than sales are presented as net provided that the nature of the transaction or the event will qualify for offsetting. Credit finance income/charges Credit finance income/charges represent imputed finance income/charges on credit sales and purchases. Such income/charges calculated by using the effective interest method are recognised as financial income or expenses over the period of credit sale and purchases, and included under financial income and expenses. Related parties Shareholders who have control or common control on the Company’s, the companies or affiliates controlled by or affiliated to the shareholders, key management personnel and members of the board of directors, their families, the companies or affiliates controlled by or affiliated to them are deemed related parties in accordance with the aim of these financial statements. Trade receivables Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. If collection is expected in one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as noncurrent assets. Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A credit risk provision for trade receivables is established if there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due. The amount of the provision is the difference between the carrying amount and the recoverable amount, being the present value of all cash flows, including amounts recoverable from guarantees and collateral, discounted based on the original effective interest rate of the originated receivables at inception. If the amount of the impairment subsequently decreases due to an event occurring after the write-down, the release of the provision is credited to other income. Trade payables Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 54 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş.

Dividend distribution Dividend distribution to the company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the company’s financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the company’s shareholders. Share premium Share premium represents differences resulting from the sale of the Company’s subsidiaries and associates’ shares at a price exceeding the face values of those shares or differences between the face values and the fair value of shares issued for acquired companies. Share capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Mandatorily redeemable preference shares are classified as liabilities. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new ordinary shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Where any group company purchases the company’s equity share capital, the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to the company’s equity holders until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such ordinary shares are subsequently reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the company’s equity holders. Segment reporting The Company, which is incorporated and domiciled in Turkey, has the primary operation of white durable goods production and the marketing and sale of white durable goods, small household appliances, electronics and office equipment, and after-sales services for goods imported and produced. The Company’s operating segments, nature and economic characteristics of its products, nature of production processes, classification of customers in terms of risk for their products and services and methods used to distribute their products are similar. Furthermore, the Company structure has been organised to operate in one segment rather than separate business segments. Consequently, the business activities of the Company are considered to be in one operating segment and the operating results, resources to be allocated to the segment and assessment of performance are managed in this respect. 55 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.4 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Financial assets a) Classification The company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, and available for sale. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. These are classified as non-current assets. The company’s loans and receivables comprise “trade and other receivables” and “cash and cash equivalents” in the balance sheet. Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless the investment matures or management intends to dispose of it within 12 months of the end of the reporting period. a) Recognition and measurement Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade-date – the date on which the group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the income statement. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. When securities classified as available for sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in equity are included in the income statement as ‘gains and losses from investment securities’. Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ category are presented in the income statement within ‘other (losses)/gains - net’ in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the income statement as part of other income when the group’s right to receive payments is established. 56 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.4 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) b) Offsetting financial instruments Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. c) Impairment of financial assets The Company assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a “loss event”) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. d) Impairment of financial assets (Continued) The criteria that the Company uses to determine that there is objective evidence of an impairment loss include: • • • • • • (i) (ii) significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor; a breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; the group, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, granting to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider; it becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties; or observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a portfolio of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial assets in the portfolio, including: adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the portfolio; and national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the portfolio The Company first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists. For the loans and receivables category, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognised in the income statement. If a loan or held to maturity investment has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the Company may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable market price. 57 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.4 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised (such as an improvement in the debtor’s credit rating), the reversal of the previously recognised impairment loss is recognised in the income statement. Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement, except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges. Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the income statement within “finance income or cost”. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the income statement within “other (losses)/gains – net”. Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency classified as available for sale are analysed between translation differences resulting from changes in the amortised cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss, and other changes in carrying amount are recognised in other comprehensive income. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets, such as equities classified as available for sale, are included in other comprehensive income. Earnings per share Earnings per share disclosed in the accompanying statement of income is determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares in existence during the year concerned. In Turkey, companies can raise their share capital by distributing “Bonus Shares” to shareholders from retained earnings. In computing earnings per share, such “bonus share” distributions are assessed as issued shares. Accordingly, the retrospective effect for those share distributions is taken into consideration in determining the weighted-average number of shares outstanding used in this computation. 58 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.4 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Provisions, contingent liabilities, contingent assets Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that the Company will be required to settle that obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense. Guarantees Warranty provisions for sales that have been recognised, assembly provisions for pending assembly services for sales that have been recognised, workmanship and material expenses incurred by services for free within the scope of product warranties are estimated using the incurred service expenses and prior period trends on the returns for the products for which the sales have been recognised in the current period (Note 11). Taxation and deferred tax Income tax expense comprises current tax and deferred tax expenses. Current tax The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. 59 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira (“TRY”) unless otherwise stated.) 2. 2.4 BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Deferred tax Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases which is used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. Current and deferred tax for the period Current and deferred tax are recognised as an expense or income in profit or loss. Employee benefits / Retirement pay provision Under Turkish law and union agreements, lump sum payments are made to employees retiring or involuntarily leaving the Company. Such payments are considered as being part of defined retirement benefit plan as per TAS 19 (revised) “Employee Benefits” (“TAS 19”). The retirement benefit obligation recognised in the balance sheet represents the present value of the defined benefit obligation as adjusted for unrecognised actuarial gains and losses. 60 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş.

PROVISIONS, COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (Continued) The decision of the Court was appealed to the Supreme Court for annulment both by the Company and Telra. According to the appeal of the Company, 19. Assembly of Civil Chambers of Supreme Court reversed the judgment of the local court on the grounds that advertising and marketing expenses were evaluated without insufficient investigation and court file has been issued to 9. Commercial Court of First Instance with the number of 2013/668. The court is on expert examination instance. The report has issued with the 3 signatures out of 5 members of the executive committee. The other two members issued a disclaimer opinion on the grounds that they object to writing a report before holding a meeting and reaching a consensus. The report signed by three out of five members stated that Telra’s total loss was USD120,541,819.06 so Telra should receive a payment of USD20 million as stated in Telra's claim and the Company should receive a payment of USD12,188,073.62, USD10 million of which should be paid as is stated in its claim. The legal experts who issued the disclaimer opinion explained the legal flaws stating that the report signed by three members includes some significant inaccuracies and flaws and thus cannot be taken as a basis for the judgment and is not suitable for review by the Court of Appeals. Objection to this report signed by three out of five members of the expert committee have been done within the legal term, according to objection the court has decided to have an additional expert report. During the expert examination, İstanbul 10th Commercial Court of First Instance decided to the bankrupt of claimant Telra; due to the bankrupt decision, the judgment was suspended until 10 days after the second creditors meeting. Lawsuit has been delayed to 13 May 2015 in the court on 11 February 2015. The management and legal counsel of the Company is in the belief that that the final decision will be in favour of the Company. Consequently, the Company has not booked any provision in financial statements. g) In the tax investigation report prepared as a result of the tax investigations for the years ending 2006, 2007 and 2008, it was claimed that interest paid over loans granted from foreign institutions is subject to 10% withholding tax, and the entity should declare VAT, accordingly the Company received a notice from the tax office for a total tax claim of TRY 29.882.211 with penalty and interest including TRY5.562.054 is deductible from VAT. The Company filed litigation against the Tax Office for the cancellation of such assessments however the tax court rejected the file. Later in the juridical process, the Supreme Court decided on a stay of execution with regard to the main VAT lawsuit. The lawsuits regarding VAT penalty were resolved in favour of the Company and the tax authority has the right to object. In the withholding tax lawsuits, the Supreme Court quashed the decision of the local court against the Company. Management of the Company ,the Company’s legal advisor and external legal counsels have a common understanding that, the case will be dismissed in the appeal process and will be resolved in favour of the Company in the light of developments in the lawsuits and due to the retrospective application of law and legislation provisions that entered into force at a later date. Therefore, the tax assessment amounting to TRY24.320.157 that was paid to the Tax Office has been accounted under other current assets (Note 15). 73 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş.

PROVISIONS, COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (Continued) h) The Company started to transfer 3.5% license fee to the main shareholder, BSH Bosch und Siemens Hausgerate GmbH, which is calculated over sales of products manufactured from the beginning of 2008 while negotiations for the agreement were ongoing, as per stated in each three drafts of “Advance Pricing Agreement” communicated by Turkish Ministry of Finance for completion of signing. As a result of transfer pricing investigations of tax inspectors of Ministry of Finance for the years 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, although the royalty rate is specified as 3.5% in each three drafts of agreement, the rate is accepted as 2% and for the difference over license amount corporate tax, withholding tax and value added tax and penalties amounting to TRY106 million was incurred in 2013, as of inspection date. The Company applied for compromise to Ministry of Finance. Compromise meeting held on 26 February 2015 and compromised on with Ministry of Finance. Long term provisions for employment termination benefits Under the Turkish Labor Law, the Group is required to pay employee benefits to each employee who has qualified for such benefits as the employment ended. Also, employees entitled to a retirement are required to be paid retirement pay in accordance with Law No: 2242 dated 6 March 1981 and No: 4447 dated 25 August 1999 and the amended Article 60 of the existing Social Insurance Code No: 506. Some transitional provisions related with retirement prerequisites have been removed due to the amendments in the relevant law on May 23, 2002. The amount payable consists of one month’s salary limited to a maximum of 3.438,22 TRY for each period of service as of 31 December 2014 (31 December 2013: 3.254,44 TRY). The retirement pay provision ceiling is revised semi-annually, and 3.541,37 TRY which is effective from 1 January 2015, is taken into consideration in the calculation of provision for employee benefits (invalided between 31 December 2013 and 1 January 2014: 3.438,22 TRY). Liability of employee benefits is not subject to any funding as there isn’t an obligation. Provision is calculated by estimating the present value of the future probable obligation of the Group arising from the retirement of the employees. IAS 19 “Employee Benefits” requires actuarial valuation methods to be developed to estimate the Group’s obligation under the defined benefit plans. The following actuarial assumptions are used in the calculation of the total liability. Actuarial loss/(gain) is accounted in the statement of comprehensive income under revaluation reserves. The principal assumption is that the maximum liability for each year of service will increase in line with inflation. Thus, the discount rate applied represents the expected real rate after adjusting for the anticipated effects of future inflation. Consequently, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2014 and 2013 the provision is calculated by estimating the present value of the future probable obligation of the Company arising from the retirement of the employees. Provisions at the balance sheet date were calculated as 3,90% (31 December 2013: %5,33) and average period is calculated as 14,81 years by assuming an annual inflation rate of 5% (31 December 2013: 5%) and a discount rate of 9,10% (31 December 2013: 10,60%). The anticipated rate of forfeitures that occurred on voluntary turnovers is considered. 74 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş.

(***) Represents tax expenses calculated from taxable income subject to 8% tax rate Corporate Tax The Company is subject to Turkish corporate tax legislation. Provision is made in the accompanying financial statements for the estimated charge based on the Company’s results for the year. Corporate tax is applied on taxable corporate income, which is calculated from the statutory accounting profit by adding back non-deductible expenses, and by deducting dividends received from resident companies, other exempt income and investment incentives utilised. The effective rate of tax in 2014 is 20% (2013: 20%). In Turkey, advance tax returns are filed on a quarterly basis. The advance corporate income tax rate in 2014 is 20% (2013: 20%). Losses are allowed to be carried five years maximum to be deducted from the taxable profit of the following years. Tax carry back is not allowed. In Turkey, there is no procedure for a final and definitive agreement on tax assessments. Companies file their tax returns between 01 and 25 April following the close of the accounting year to which they relate. Tax authorities may, however, examine such returns and the underlying accounting records and may revise assessments within five years. Corporate tax rates were taken into account as 20%, as well as 10% and 8%, the rate specified by the new law. In accordance with Article 32/A4, added to the New Corporate Tax Law via Article 9 of Law No. 5838, in the event the earning derived from capacity expansion investment can be determined by means of follow-up in separate accounts throughout the enterprise, the discounted rate is applied to this earning. In the event the earning cannot be determined on an individual basis, the earning to which the discounted rate will be applied is determined by using the ratio of the amount of expansion investment to the total fixed asset amount (including amounts relating to ongoing investments) registered in the assets of the company at period end. 84 CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN TURKISH BSH EV ALETLERİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş.

TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (Continued) At the time of this calculation, the book value of the fixed assets included in the company assets is considered over their reassessed amounts. The application of the discounted rate starts in the advance tax period in which the investment begins operation partly or fully. Based on the aforementioned law, the Company used the 10% and 8% tax rate for the amount of the corporate tax base corresponding to the investment allowance and 20% tax rate for the remaining portion of the tax base. Deferred Tax The Company recognises deferred tax assets and liabilities based upon temporary differences arising between its financial statements prepared in compliance with TFRS and its statutory tax financial statements. These differences usually result in the recognition of revenue and expenses in different reporting periods for TFRS financial statements and statutory tax financial statements and are set out below.
