Foreign currency transactions
The functional currency of the Parent and its investees is the euro. Therefore,
transactions in currencies other than the euro are deemed to be “foreign currency
transactions” and are recognised by applying the exchange rates prevailing at the date of
the transaction.
q)
Consolidated statements of cash flows
The following terms are used in the consolidated statements of cash flows with the
meanings specified:
Cash flows: inflows and outflows of cash and cash equivalents, which are short-term,
highly liquid investments that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Operating activities: the principal revenue-producing activities of the Group and other
activities that are not investing or financing activities.
Investing activities: the acquisition and disposal of long-term assets and other
investments not included in cash and cash equivalents.
Financing activities: activities that result in changes in the size and composition of equity
and borrowings that are not operating activities.
r)
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net profit for the year attributable to
the Parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares of the Parent outstanding
during the year.
The Group has not carried out transactions of any kind that have led to diluted earnings
per share differing from basic earnings per share (see Note 23).
