Consolidated financial statements
The examination of the recoverability of brought forward losses
is subject to particular scrutiny and shall only be recoverable if the
subsidiary in question or its consolidation scope makes profits in the
near future.
Regarding French companies, pursuant to the removal of the
professional tax and its replacement by the CET and CVAE as of 2010,
the Group has decided to consider the CVAE in the context of the IAS
12 standard. This decision will thus lead to the posting of this tax as
“Taxes” in the income statement.
2.2.19.6 Earnings per share
Net earnings per share (before dilution) are calculated on the ratio
between the net profit for the period and the weighted number of
shares in circulation during the period, after deduction of shares held
by the Group (treasury shares). Net diluted earnings per share are
calculated by including financial instruments that provide deferred
access to the Group’s capital (stock options, share warrants).
Treasury shares are deducted from the weighted average number of
shares in circulation, which acts as a basis on which to calculate the
net earnings per share (before and after dilution).

The Group has opted to present its consolidated cash flow statement
in accordance with the IFRS model.
