Consolidated Annual Accounts 2017
Atresmedia Corporación de Medios de Comunicación, S.A. and Subsidiaries Translation of consolidated financial statements originally issued in Spanish and prepared in accordance with the regulatory financial reporting framework applicable to the Group in Spain (see Notes 2 and 29). In the event of discrepancy, the Spanish-language version prevails. 2017 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 20 annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may have become impaired. In accordance with IAS 36, goodwill acquired in a business combination shall, from the acquisition date, be allocated to each of the Group’s CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination, irrespective of whether other assets and liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units. Impairment of goodwill is measured as the excess of its carrying amount over the recoverable amount of the CGU or CGUs to which the goodwill relates. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill may not be reversed in a subsequent period. c) Other intangible assets Administrative concessions “Administrative Concessions” includes mainly the cost assigned to administrative concessions for radio broadcasting acquired by Uniprex, S.A. Unipersonal. The amount recognised in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet relates to the expenses incurred to directly obtain the concession from the State or from the related public body. This amount is amortised on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the radio licence. Licences and trademarks These accounts include the amounts relating to the licence and the trademark identified in the purchase price allocation process arising from the merger with Gestora de Inversiones Audiovisuales La Sexta, S.A. carried out in 2012 (see Note 6). The trademark is amortised on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 20 years. This license has a specific expiration, but historically has been tacitly renewed. Based on an analysis of all the relevant factors, the Group considers that there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which it is expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group. As a result, the licence was classified as an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life and, therefore, is not amortised. This indefinite useful life classification is reviewed at each reporting date and is consistent with the related business plans. At the end of each reporting period the directors assess the licence for impairment (i.e. a reduction in its recoverable amount to below its carrying amount) and, if there is any impairment, it is written down with a charge to “Impairment and gains/(losses) on disposals of non-current assets” in the accompanying consolidated statement of profit or loss. Impairment losses on this intangible asset may not be reversed in a subsequent reporting period.
