FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Consolidated financial statements

3.2.3 Cash equivalents and other short-term investments If the Company has surplus cash, this is generally invested in units of euro money-market funds (SICAVs) and time deposits that meet the definition of cash equivalents under IAS 7 (short-term, highly-liquid investments, readily convertible into known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of change in value). The Company values this portfolio using the fair value option provided for by IAS 39. The unrealised capital gains or losses at the balance sheet date are thus recognised in profit or loss for the year. Income from time deposits and money-market funds is included in “Income from cash investments”.

3.2.4 Tax treatment The Company opted to become a société de capital risque (SCR) on 1 January 1996. It is exempt from corporation tax. As a result, no deferred tax is recognised in the financial statements. The Company does not recover VAT. Non-deductible VAT is recognised as an expense in the income statement. 3.2.5 Segment information TheCompany carries out only private equity activities and invests primarily in the euro zone.
