On 9 September 2015, the Joint Venture with the shareholding group HNA Hospitality Group Co, Ltd. was formalised, creating Beijing NH Grand
China Hotel Management Co, Ltd in which the Group is a 49% shareholder.
On 15 April 2015, the contract for the Joint Venture between the Group and the company MDH Hologram, S.A. was formalised, in virtue of which 25%
of the company Hotel & Congress Technology, S.L. was sold, resulting in a 50% shareholding for the NH Hotel Group. The company was incorporated
into the consolidation upon commencing activity in 2015, having been previously inactive, with shares accounted for under the heading “Other non-
current financial assets” in the year 2014.
NH Hotel Group’s policy on interests in associates consists in the Group ceasing to recognise losses in these companies if the associate’s consolidated
losses attributable to the Group are equivalent to or exceed the cost of its interest in them, provided there are no additional contingencies or
guarantees connected with already incurred losses. This is the situation of the stake in Losan Investment, Ltd.
On 12 August 2014 the NH Group sold its shares in Harrington Hall, Ltd. for 13,292 thousand euros, generating a net gain of 13,292 thousand euros
registered in line “ Profit (loss) on disposal of financial investments” and a result of 370 thousand euros for the exchange rates associated of the
participation(see Note 2.5.4).
The most significant financial information related to the main ownership interests in joint ventures is detailed in Appendix II to this consolidated
annual report.
