NON-CURRENT FINANCIAL ASSETS (PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS HELD AS NON-CURRENT ASSETS AND EQUITY INVESTMENTS)

OTHER RECEIVABLES

2.2

2.1.1 Portfolio investments held as non-current assets Portfolio investments held as non-current assets are the investments held in the Apax France VIII-B, Apax France IX-B, ApaxVIII LP, Apax IXLP, Phénix, ApiaVista andApiaCiprés funds. A provision for impairment was recognised as of 31 December 2017 for the Apia Ciprés private equity fund (€9k). 2.1.2 Accounting method for tracking and writing down equity investments According to the accounting regulations for commercial companies, equity investments, portfolio investments held as non-current assets, and receivables related to equity investments are recognised at their acquisition cost. They may give rise to impairment, but not to revaluation. The manager conducts a review of the listed and unlisted securities at the end of each half-yearly and annual accounting period. If the end-of-period value of a portfolio investment or of an equity investment or its related receivable is lower than its acquisition cost, a provision for impairment is created for the difference in value. The end-of- period value for portfolio investments held as non-current assets corresponds to the end-of-period value; for equity investments and related receivables, that value is the value in use. The provision for impairment of equity investments and related receivables amounted to €18.2m as of 31 December 2017. Exits are calculated on a “first-in, first-out” basis. Receivables in foreign currencies on foreign companies are valued at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. A provision for risks and contingencies is recognised in the event of any decline in the currency concerned in relation to the euro. This rule is applied to both the book value and the estimated value. 2.1.3 Calculation method for end-of-period value CATEGORY 1 SHARES Companieswhose shares are tradedonanactivemarket (“listed”). The shares of listed companies are valued at the last stockmarket price of the period.

This account corresponds to interest accrued on equity investments. The Company has determined that accrued interest is generally included in the acquisition price paid by third parties and is not paid by the debtor company. Consequently, it will henceforth be included in the valuation of the companies. For this reason, it is initially recognised as accrued income, then fully written down.
