The accounting policies used in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2018, except for the new international financial information regulations (IFRS) effective as of January 1, 2019, explained as follows.

3.1                Change in accounting policies

The Group has adopted IFRS 16 Leases (hereinafter “IFRS 16”) from January 1, 2019. Other effective mandatory modifications becoming effective as of that date, do not had significant impact on the Group's unaudited consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2019. The Group has decided not to adopt any standard, interpretation or modification issued in advance, that is not yet effective.

In the adoption of IFRS 16, the Group recognized liabilities related to leases that have been previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17. These liabilities have been measured based on the present value of the remaining future payments, discounted using a rate of incremental interest as of January 1, 2019 (7.3% average interest rate).

As a result of the effect of the transition of IFRS 16, right-of-use assets and liabilities for S/ 97.7 million were recognized as of January 1, 2019 (representing 1.33% and 2.15% of total assets and liabilities, respectively). As part of the initial application of IFRS 16, the Company used the modified retrospective method, therefore, the finantial statements for previous years were not modified.

3.2 Disclosures related to the implementation of IFRS 16 (Note 11 and Note 12).

Below, we present the impact of the implementation of IFRS 16 in the Group's financial statements:

Financial risk management is carried out by the Group’s Management. Management oversees the general management of risks in specific areas, such as foreign exchange rate risk, price risk, cash flow and fair value interest rate risk, credit risk, the use of derivative and non-derivative financial instruments and the investment of excess liquidity as well as financial risks and carries out periodic supervision and monitoring.

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, price risk, fair value interest rate risk and cash flow interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance. The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures in one of its subsidiaries and considers the use of other derivatives in the event that it identifies risks that may generate an adverse effect for the Group in the short and medium-term.

The Group is exposed to exchange rate risk as a result of the transactions carried out locally in foreign currency and due to its operations abroad. As of December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2019, and, this exposure is mainly concentrated in fluctuations of U.S. dollar, the Chilean and Colombian Pesos.

Management considers that the exposure of the Group to the price risk of its investments in mutual funds, bonds and equity securities is low, since the invested amounts are not significant. Any fluctuation in their fair value will not have any significant impact on the balances reported in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

The Group’s interest rate risk mainly arises from its long-term borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk.

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalent and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as customer credit counterparties, including the outstanding balance of accounts receivable and committed transactions. For banks and financial institutions, only independently rated parties with a minimum rating of ‘A’ are accepted.

With respect to loans to related parties, the Group has measures in place to ensure the recovery of these loans through the controls maintained by the Corporate Finance Management and the performance evaluation conducted by the Board.

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalents, the availability of funding through an adequate number of sources of committed credit facilities and the capacity to close out positions in the market. Historically, the Group cash flows enabled it to maintain sufficient cash to meet its obligations. However, as of December 31, 2016, the Group started to experienced liquidity risk due to the early termination of the GSP concession agreement and the obligations assumed. As a consequence, the Group started a disinvestment plan to be able to meet the obligations resulting from this scenario. That has been fulfilled, managing to reduce these obligations in an important way.

Group Corporate Finance monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs, so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants, where applicable, on any of its borrowing facilities. Less significant financing transactions are controlled by the Finance Management of each subsidiary.

Such forecasting takes into consideration the Group’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance, compliance with internal statement of financial position ratio targets and, if applicable, external regulatory or legal requirements; for example, foreign currency restrictions.

Surplus cash held by the operating entities over the balance required for working capital management are invested in interest-bearing checking accounts or time deposits, selecting instruments with appropriate maturities and sufficient liquidity.

The table below analyzes the Group’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period from the date of the statement of financial position to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders, benefits for other stakeholders and tomaintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. From 2017 the situation of the Group, has lead Management to monitor deviations that might cause the non-compliance of covenants and may hinder renegotiation of liabilities (Note12).

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

The Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings (including current and non-current borrowings), less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as ‘equity’ as shown in the consolidated statement of financial position plus net debt.

As of December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2019, the gearing ratio is presented below indicating the Company’s strategy to keep it in a range from 0.10 to 0.70.

For the classification of the type of valuation used by the Group for its financial instruments at fair value, the following levels of measurement have been established.

The fair value of the financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss has been determined with observable information of Level 1.

Other financial instruments measured at fair value correspond to the interest rate swaps signed by subsidiary GMP S.A., by which a variable-interest instrument is changed to a fixed interest rate (cash flow hedge). The information used for determining the fair value of these instruments are Level 2 and has been determined based on the present value of discounted future cash flows applied to the interest-rate change projections of Citibank N.A.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents correspond to their fair values. The Company considers that the carrying amount of trade accounts receivable and payable is similar to their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities, disclosed in Note 12, has been estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the interest rate currently prevailing in the market and which is available to the Company for similar financial instruments (Level 2).

Estimates and judgments used are continuously evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

In preparing these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended  December 31, 2018.

The Group shows no seasonality in the operations of any of its subsidiaries; operations are carried out regularly during the course of the period.

Operating segments are reported consistently with the internal reports that are reviewed by the Group’ chief decision-maker; that is, the Executive Committee, which is led by the Chief Executive Officer. This Committee is responsible for allocating resources and evaluating the performance of each operating segment.

The Group's operating segments are assessed by the activities of the following business units: (i) engineering and construction, (ii) infrastructure, and (iii) real estate.

As set forth under IFRS 8, reportable segments by significance of income are: ‘engineering and construction’ and ‘infraestructure’. However, the Group has voluntarily decided to report on all its operating segments as detailed in this Note.

Inter-segmental sales transactions are entered into at prices that are similar to those that would have been agreed to with unrelated third parties. Revenues from external customers reported are measured in a manner consistent with the basis of preparation of the financial statements.

Group sales and receivables are not concentrated on a few customers. There is no external customer that represents 10% or more of the Goup’s revenue.

As of December 31, 2018 management considered not presenting the segment "IT services", due to the sale of the CAM Group in November 2018, which includes the companies CAM Chile S.A., Cam Servicios del Peru S.A. (CAM Group). In addition, Adexus S.A. was reclassified to non-current assets held for sale.

The table below shows the Group’s financial statements by operating segments:
