APPENDIX
Non-IFRS financial measures
For comparative purposes, the company provides unaudited non-IFRS measures including:
- Operational expenses excluding depreciation and amortisation
- EBITDA, EBITDA margin.
Non-IFRS measures are defined as follows:
- Operational expenses excluding depreciation and amortisation as the total of salary and employee benefits, and other operational expenses
- EBITDA as the operating profit before exceptional items and depreciation and amortisation
- EBITDA margin as the operating profit before exceptional items and depreciation and amortisation, divided by revenue.
Non-IFRS financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable IFRS measures and should be read only in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements.
Adoption of IFRS 16 from Q1 2019
Until the 2018 financial year, payments made under operating leases were charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. On adoption of IFRS 16, the Group recognised right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for those leases previously classified as operating leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets for which associated payments are recognised on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss.
The adoption of IFRS 16 from 1 January 2019 led to the recognition of €2.7 million of operating expenses in Depreciation and Amortisation in Q2 2019.
