The recognition by the district president took place on 7 December 2016. The Foundation is registered within the foundation register of the Darmstadt/Germany district. The financial year principally corresponds to the calendar year. The annual financial statements as of 31 Decem- ber 2019 were prepared in accordance with the requirements under German commercial law as well as in compliance with the supplementary provisions of the charter. The Foundation generally complied with the requirements of the German Commercial Code (HGB) applicable to small business corporations (Sec. 267 (1) HGB). As regards the classification of the balance sheet and the statement of profit and loss, the particularities that arise from the activity of the Foundation were taken into account. The statement of profit and loss has been prepared based on the cost of sales format in accordance with Sec. 275 (3) HGB, taking into account the particularities under foundation law. Recognition and measurement policies In the financial year, the disclosure of reserves within equity was adjusted. They were allocated to capital reserves and earnings reserves. Apart from the above, the recognition and measurement policies applied remained un- changed when compared to the prior year. Property, plant and equipment and financial assets are measured at acquisition cost in accordance with Sec. 255 (1) HGB. Wear and tear of property, plant and equipment is taken into account through depreciation, measured on the basis of the useful lives accepted under tax principles using the straight-line method. Financial assets are written down to the lower fair value in case of lasting permanent impairment. The Foundation does not exercise the option in case of a presumably temporary impairment in value. The other assets are measured at the lower of acquisition cost and the fair value on balance sheet date. Bank balances are recognised at nominal value. The other provisions cover all risks and contingent liabilities identifiable as of the balance sheet date. They are recognised at settlement amount based on sound business judgement. 1 Liabilities are carried at settlement amount. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are generally recognised at the rate in effect on the date of transac- tion. Receivables and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate in effect on the day of origin. Foreign currency items are generally translated as of the balance sheet date in accordance with the provisions under Sec. 256a HGB at the middle spot exchange rate in effect on balance sheet date. Notes to the balance sheet Fixed assets Classification of and movements in fixed assets are given in the attached statement of movements in fixed assets.
