Goodwill Impairment Test Goodwill is monitored and tested for impairment at the lowest CGU group level of the Group to which goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated (see Note 3). Following the acquisition of FastMatch Inc. in 2017 and the allocation of goodwill from this transaction to the “FX Trading” CGU, the Group tests goodwill at the level of two CGU (group)’s: “Euronext” and “FX Trading”. The recoverable value of the “Euronext” CGU group is based on its fair value less cost of disposal, applying a discounted cash flow approach, and corroborated by observation of Company’s market capitalisation. The fair value measurement uses significant unobservable inputs and is therefore categorised as a Level 3 measurement under IFRS 13.

Cash flow projections are derived from the 2018 budget and the business plan for 2019. Key assumptions used by management include third party revenue growth, which factors future volumes of European equity markets, the Group’s market share, average fee per transaction, and the expected impact of new product initiatives. These assumptions are based on past experience, market research and management expectation of market developments. For the impairment test performed as of 31 December 2017, revenues have been extrapolated using a perpetual growth rate of 2.3% (2016: 1.5%) after 2019. The weighted average cost of capital applied was 8.6% (2016: 8.5%). The annual impairment testing of the “Euronext” CGU group performed at each year-end did not result in any instance where the carrying value of the operating segment exceeded its recoverable amount.
