Please refer to the “Notes to the IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 16: Total Financial Result” and “– Note 25: Other Financial Assets and Other Financial Liabilities”. Other financial result changed from € -18 million for 2022 to € 191 million for 2023. In 2023, it mainly reflects a positive impact from the revaluation of certain equity investments.

2.1.4.9 Income Taxes Income tax expense was €-1,156 million for 2023 as compared to € -939 million for 2022, and corresponds to an effective income tax rate of 24%. The tax expense evolution was mainly driven by higher net valuation allowances, partially offset by an impairment reversal linked to a corporate reorganisation in Germany, and lower positive impacts from tax risk updates in 2023 as compared to 2022. For 2022, income tax expense was € -939 million as compared to € -853 million for 2021, and corresponds to an effective income tax rate of 19%.

Please refer to the “Notes to the IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 17: Income Taxes”. 2.1.4.10 Non-Controlling Interests For 2023, loss for the period attributable to non-controlling interests was € -176 million, as compared to loss of € -111 million for 2022. 2.1.4.11 Profit for the Period Attributable to Equity Owners of the Parent (Net Income) As a result of the factors discussed above, the Company recorded a net income of € 3,789 million for 2023, as compared to the net income of €4,247 million for 2022.
