credit ratings, for the determination of the Fair Value on first-time recognition.
Further
measurements are made based on the “amortised cost” method;
listed financial instruments: the market value at the reporting date is utilised.
In relation to financial instruments measured at Fair Value, IFRS 13 requires the classification of
these instruments according to the standard’s hierarchy levels, which reflect the significance of the
inputs utilised in establishing the fair value. The following levels are used:
Level 1: unadjusted assets or liabilities subject to
valuation on an active market;
Level 2: inputs other than prices listed at the previous point, which are directly observable
(prices) or indirectly (derivatives from the prices) on the market;
Level 3 - input which is not based on observable market data.
Trade and other payables
Trade payables and other payables are initially recognised at fair value, normally equal to the nominal
value, net of discounts, returns or invoice adjustments, and are subsequently measured at amortised
cost where the financial effect of extended payment terms is significant. When
there is a change in the
cash flows and it is possible to estimate them reliably, the value of the payables are recalculated to
reflect this change, based on the new present value of the cash flows and on the internal yield initially
determined.
Current, deferred and other taxes
Income taxes include all the taxes calculated on the assessable income of the Group Companies
applying the tax rates in force at the date of the present report.
Income taxes are recorded in the income statement, except those relating to accounts directly credited
or debited
to equity, in which case the tax effect is recognised directly to equity.
Other taxes not related to income, such as taxes on property and share capital, are included under
other operating charges (“Service costs”, “Rent, lease and similar” and “Other charges”). The
liabilities related to indirect taxes are classified under “Other Payables”.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined in accordance with the global assets/liability method
and are calculated on the basis of the temporary differences arising between the carrying amounts of
the assets and liabilities and the corresponding values recognised for tax purposes, taking into account
the tax rate within current fiscal legislation for the years in which
the differences will reverse, with the
exception of goodwill not fiscally deductible and those differences deriving from investments in
subsidiaries for which it is not expected the cancellation in the foreseeable future, and on the tax
losses carried forward.

“Deferred Tax Assets” are classified under non-current assets and are recognised only when there
exists a high probability of future assessable income to recover the asset.
The recovery of the “Deferred Tax Assets” is reviewed at each reporting date and for the part for
which recovery is no longer probable recorded in the income statement.
Revenue and costs
Revenue recognition
The revenues and income are recorded net of returns, discounts, rebates and premiums as well as
direct taxes related to the sale of products and services. In particular, the revenues for the sale of
products are recognised when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer. This,
according to normal contractual conditions, occurs on shipping of the goods.
Recognition
of costs
Costs are recorded when relating to goods and services acquired or consumed in the year or when
there is no future utility.
The costs directly attributable to share capital operations are recorded as a direct reduction of equity.
Commercial costs relating to the acquisition of new clients are expensed to the income statement
when incurred.
Financial income and expenses
Financial income includes interest income on liquidity invested, dividends received and income from
the sale of available-for-sale financial assets. Interest income is recorded in the income statement on
an accruals basis utilising the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded when the right
of the Group to receive the payment is established which, in the case of listed securities, corresponds
to the coupon date.
Financial charges include interest on loans, discounting of provisions, dividends distributed on
preference shares reimbursable, changes in the fair value of financial assets recorded through P&L
and losses on financial assets. Finance costs are recorded in the income statement utilising the
effective interest method. The currency operations are recorded as the net amount.
