4.

Key Estimates and Judgements

The preparation of the Company Financial Statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions. In preparing these Financial Statements, management exercises its best judgement based upon its experience and the circumstances prevailing at that time. The estimates and assumptions are based on available information and conditions at the end of the financial period presented and are reviewed on an ongoing basis.

The details regarding the use of estimates and judgements are described in “– Note 4: Key Estimates and Judgements” of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Key accounting estimates and judgements af fecting the assessment and measurement of impairment are included in “– Note 10: Investments in Subsidiaries, Associates and Participations” of the Company Financial Statements.

5.

Brexit

On 29 March 2017, the UK triggered Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty, the mechanism to leave the European Union (“Brexit”). In June 2018, the Company publ ished its Brexit Risk Assessment outlining its expectations regarding the material consequences and risks for the Company arising from the UK leaving the European Union without a deal. In September 2018, the Company launched a project to mitigate the risks and anticipate possible consequences associated with Brexit and its impact on the Company’s business and production activities. Significant progress was made in mitigating the identified risks through for example the modification of the Company’s customs and IT systems, and the stockpiling of parts associated with transportation and logistics.

The UK left the European Union in an orderly manner on 31 January 2020 under the terms of the Withdrawal Agreement, opening a transition period until 31 December 2020. On 30 December 2020, the UK Parliament ratified the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement (“TCA”) but it still awaits ratification by the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union before final conclusion and entry into force. The TCA is expected to prevent the disruption a no-deal scenario would have created. Preliminary analysis confirms that although Brexit will result in a requirement for increased areas of vigilance, additional administrative work and reduced industrial flexibility, the continuity of the Company’s business operations and supply chain in particular are not materially threatened.
