Liquidity risk 4.11.3 The Group uses a cash-flow management tool. This tool keeps track of the maturity of financial investments and financial assets (e.g., accounts receivable) and the estimated future cash flow from operations.

It includes a five-year loan for €31.8 million, repayable in equal annual installments (outstanding amount authorized and drawn of €31.8 million as at September 30, 2019), and a five-year usable revolving loan in the sum of €100 million, repayable at maturity. The next installment for the repayment loan is due on March 31, 2020 and amounts to €10.6 million. At September 30, 2019, there was no drawdown being made under the revolving loan; a non-recourse factoring agreement went into effect on January 1, p 2015. Its initial two-year term was renewed twice, in April 2016 and November 2018, extending the maturity to the end of December 2021 and its limit to €300 million (subject to receivables available). The factoring purchases non-recourse receivables for up to the approved amounts issued by the credit insurers, and with recourse beyond that amount. The total receivables that may be derecognized by the Group is thus dependent on the total receivables available and the credit insurers’ authorized limits. Any downward variation in one of these amounts may lead to an increase in the net debt recognized by the Group; The amount drawn down from this line as at September 30, 2019 is €231.1 million, for a contribution to net debt of €16 million;
