a)
|
Receivables and revenue from financial services
|
Receivables from financial operations comprise of contracted receivables from subscribers, related to consumer financing activities of Turkcell Finansman A.S (“TFS”). These receivables are measured at amortized cost, using effective interest rate method.
The impairment loss recognized of TL 71 for the six months ended 30 June 2016 relates to its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade receivables.

The
Company provides a cash-settled share-based payment plan for selected employees in return for their services. For cash-settled share-based payment plan, the Company measures the services received and the liability incurred at the fair value of the liability. Until the liability is settled, the Company remeasures the fair value of the liability at each reporting date and at the settlement date, with any changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss for the period. Cash-settled share-based payments are conditional upon meeting specified vesting conditions. As of 30 June 2016, taking into account the probability of meeting vesting conditions, the Company has not recognized any liability in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements regarding the cash-settled share-based payments.

These amendments comprise clarifications of the guidance on identifying performance obligations, accounting for licences of intellectual property and the principal versus agent assessment (gross versus net revenue presentation). New and amended illustrative examples have been added for each of those areas of guidance. The IASB has also included additional practical expedients related to transition to the new revenue standard.

IFRS 9 ‘Financial instruments’, effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. This standard replaces the guidance in IAS 39. It includes requirements on the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities; it also includes an expected credit losses model that replaces the current incurred loss impairment model.

IFRS 16 ‘Leases’, effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, This standard replaces the current guidance in IAS 17 and is a farreaching change in accounting by lessees in particular. Under IAS 17, lessees were required to make a distinction between a finance lease (on balance sheet) and an operating lease (off balance sheet). IFRS 16 now requires lessees to recognise a lease liability reflecting future lease payments and a ‘right-of-use asset’ for virtually all lease contracts. The IASB has included an optional exemption for certain short-term leases and leases of low-value assets; however, this exemption can only be applied by lessees. For lessors, the accounting stays almost the same. However, as the IASB has updated the guidance on the definition of a lease (as well as the guidance on the combination and separation of contracts), lessors will also be affected by the new standard. At the very least, the new accounting model for lessees is expected to impact negotiations between lessors and lessees. Under IFRS 16, a contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

The Group is evaluating the effects of these standards on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
TURKCELL ILETISIM HIZMETLERI AS AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As at and for the six months ended 30 June 2016
(Amounts expressed in thousands of Turkish Liras unless otherwise indicated except share amounts)
|
The Group has two main reportable segments in accordance with its integrated communication and technology services strategy as Turkcell Turkey and Turkcell International. Some of these strategic segments offer the same types of services, however they are managed separately because they operate in different geographical locations and are affected by different economic conditions.
Turkcell Turkey reportable segment includes the operations of
Turkcell, Superonline İletisim Hizmetleri A.S. (
“Turkcell Superonline”), Turkcell Satis ve Dagitim Hizmetleri A.S. (“Turkcell Satis”), group call center operations of Global Bilgi Pazarlama Danisma ve Cagri Servisi Hizmetleri A.S. (“Turkcell Global Bilgi”), Turktell Bilisim Servisleri A.S. (“Turktell”), Turkcell Teknoloji Arastirma ve Gelistirme A.S. (“Turkcell Teknoloji”), Turkcell Interaktif Dijital Platform ve Icerik Hizmetleri A.S. (“Turktell Interaktif”), Kule Hizmet ve Isletmecilik A.S. (“Global Tower”), Rehberlik Hizmetleri Servisi A.S. (“Rehberlik”), Turkcell Odeme Hizmetleri A.S. (“Turkcell Odeme”), Turkcell Gayrimenkul Hizmetleri A.S. (“Turkcell Gayrimenkul”). Turkcell International reportable segment includes the operations of Kibris Mobile Telekomunikasyon Limited Sirketi (“Kibris Telekom”), Eastasia, Euroasia, lifecell, Beltur, Beltel, Belarusian Telecom, UkrTower, Global LLC, Turkcell Europe, Lifetech LLC and Fintur Holdings B.V. (“Fintur”). The operations of these legal entities aggregated into one reportable segment as the nature of services are similar and most of them share similar economic characteristics. Other reportable segment mainly comprises the information and entertainment services in Turkey and Azerbaijan, non-group call center operations of Turkcell Global Bilgi and Turkcell Finansman AS (“TFS”).
In first, second and third quarter of the year 2015, the operations of Turkcell Global Bilgi were included in Turkcell Turkey reportable segment. Since the Group changed its reportable segments which are the dominant source of information to evaluate the performance and to allocate resources in the fourth quarter of 2015, group call center operations of Global Bilgi were included in Turkcell Turkey reportable segment whereas non-group call center operations of Global Bilgi were included in other reportable segment. Corresponding information for prior years have been also restated in the current period according to the new reportable segments. Since the assets and liabilities of Turkcell Global Bilgi could not be allocated to group and non-group operations and are mainly related to group operations, total assets and liabilities of Turkcell Global Bilgi are reported under Turkcell Turkey reportable segment except trade receivables.
Information regarding the operations of each reportable segment is included below. Adjusted EBITDA is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries. Adjusted EBITDA definition includes revenue, direct cost of revenues excluding depreciation and amortization, selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure defined by IFRS as a measurement of financial performance and may not be comparable to other similarly-titled indicators used by other companies. Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated profit before income tax and profit for the period in the accompanying notes.

Seasonality of operations
|
The Turkish mobile communications market is affected by seasonal peaks and troughs. Historically, the effects of seasonality on mobile communications usage had positively influenced the Company’s results in the second and third quarters of the fiscal year and negatively influenced the results in the first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year. Recently, however, due to changing market dynamics, such as the Information Technologies and Communications Authority
(
“ICTA”)’s intervention in tariffs and increasing competition in the Turkish telecommunications market, the effects of seasonality on the Company’s subscribers’ mobile communications usage has decreased. Local and religious holidays in Turkey also affect the Company’s operational results.

As at and for the six months ended 30 June 2016
(Amounts expressed in thousands of Turkish Liras unless otherwise indicated except share amounts)

|
Finance income and costs
|
Net finance income or expense amounts to TL 188,035, TL (86,402), TL 21,788 and TL 397,027 for the six and three months ended 30 June 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Net finance income for the six months ended 30 June 2016 and 2015 are mainly attributable to interest income from contracted handset sales.
Net finance expense for the six months ended 30 June 2016 is mainly attributable to financing cost of loans and borrowings and 4.5G license spectrum fee payable.
Net finance expense for the six months ended 30 June 2015 is mainly attributable to foreign exchange losses arising from loans and borrowings.
Effective tax rates are 17%, 36%, 13% and 15% for the six and three months ended 30 June 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Since it is not probable that taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses or unused tax credits of lifecell and Belarusian Telecom can be utilized, no deferred tax asset is recognized on any loss incurred as a result of Ukraine and Belarus.

Sensitivity analysis
The basis for the sensitivity analysis to measure foreign exchange risk is an aggregate corporate-level currency exposure. The aggregate foreign exchange exposure is composed of all assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. The analysis excludes net foreign currency investments.
10% strengthening of the TL, UAH, BYR against the following currencies as at 30 June 2016 and 31 December 2015 would have increased / (decreased) profit or loss before by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant.

Fair values
Fair value of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis
Some of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The following table gives information about how the fair values of these financial assets and financial liabilities are determined (in particular, the valuation technique(s) and inputs used).
• 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.

Participating cross currency swap contracts include EUR-TL interest and currency swap contracts, and EUR put and call options, amounting to nominal value of 500,000 EUR in total. Since bid-ask spread is unobservable input; in valuation of participating cross currency swap contracts, prices in bid- ask price range which were considered the most appropriate were used instead of mid prices. If mid prices were used in the valuation the fair value of participating cross currency swap contracts would be lower amounting to TL 37,860 as at 30 June 2016.
|
Relationship of unobservable inputs to fair value is the higher the discount rate, the lower the fair value.

The Council of State partially accepted the Company’s request for the stay of execution of the First Instance Court’s decisions during the appeal process.
In the case of payments, Turkcell shall pay the amounts subject to aforementioned lawsuits with their accrued interest. This interest would be calculated as a case by case basis. Accordingly, the interest that may be paid in some or all of the cases, could amount to a significant portion of the tax assessment.

Based on the management opinion, the probability of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits to settle the obligation is uncertain, thus, no provision is recognized in the consolidated financial statements as at and for the period ended 30 June 2016 (31 December 2015: None).
