Deferred taxation is calculated using the variable carry forwardmethod
for all timing differences at year-end between taxable and accounting
values of assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.
Fiscally non-deductible goodwill does not give rise to a declaration of
deferred tax.
Deferred tax assets are only recognized if their recovery is probable.
Deferred tax debits and credits aremeasured at the tax rates that will be
applicable when the timing differences are settled.
A deferred tax asset on loss carry-forwards is recognized only insofar as
it is likely that the relevant subsidiary or its tax consolidation scope will
have future taxable profits to which tax loss carryforwards can be
attributed.
RegardingFrenchcompanies,pursuanttotheremovaloftheprofessional
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.
2.2.18.6 - Earnings per share

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

including financial instruments that provide deferred access to the
Group’s capital (stock options, share warrants, performance shares).
