CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND METHODS NOTE 16

IFRS 17, Insurance contracts, applicable to fiscal years beginning on • or after January 1, 2021 (not adopted by the European Union); IFRS 14, Regulatory Deferral Accounts, applicable to fiscal years • beginning on or after January 1, 2016 (the European Commission has decided not to launch the adoption process for this standard considering it transitional); the amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28, Sales or contributions of • assets between an investor and its associate/joint venture, (postponed by the European Union to an undefined date). Eurazeo is currently determining the potential impacts of these new standards and standard amendments on the Group's consolidated financial statements. The Group has set up working groups in each of the investments to assess the impact of the adoption of IFRS 16. Contracts falling within the scope of this new standard were identified and an initial analysis of the impact on the financial statements and the information systems performed. The main expected impacts concern the recognition of a right of use asset in the consolidated balance sheet, as well as the corresponding liability and interest. Based on the current scope of consolidation as of December 31, 2018, the Group estimates the amount of the lease liability at less than 20% of its gross debt. Companies over which the Group holds a controlling interest, usually as a result of a majority stake, are fully consolidated. This rule applies regardless of the actual percentage of shares held. The concept of control represents the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. Minority interests in subsidiaries are shown in the balance sheet in a separate equity category. Net income attributable to minority shareholders is clearly shown in the income statement. The income and expenses of subsidiaries purchased or disposed of during the fiscal year are included in the income statement from the acquisition date or up to the disposal date accordingly. Equity-accounted associates Companies in which the Group exercises significant influence on financial and business decisions but does not have majority control, or in which it exercises joint control are accounted for in accordance with the equity method. Business combinations Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. Accordingly, when an entity is consolidated for the first time, its assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are measured at fair value. In addition, for each business combination, the Group values any non-controlling interests in the entity acquired at fair value or based on the Group's proportional interest in the identifiable net assets of the entity acquired. Acquisition costs are expensed in the income statement. At the acquisition date, the Group recognizes goodwill in the amount of the difference between the consideration transferred plus any non-controlling interests in the entity acquired and the identifiable assets transferred net of liabilities assumed. Where an acquisition leading to the acquisition of control is performed in stages, the Group revalues the previously held investment at fair value at the acquisition date and recognizes any resulting gain or loss in net income. 16.2 Consolidation method Fully-consolidated companies

Basis of preparation of the consolidated 16.1 financial statements The accounting principles used to prepare the consolidated financial statements are compliant with IFRS standards and interpretations as adopted by the European Union on December 31, 2018, and available on the website: http://ec.europa.eu/finance/company-reporting/standards- interpretations/index_en.htm. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on an historical cost basis, except for investment properties, derivative financial instruments and financial assets which are measured at fair value. The financial statements are presented in euros, rounded to the nearest thousand. In certain cases, this rounding may lead to a slight difference in totals and variations. The accounting principles adopted are consistent with those used to prepare the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017, updated for the adoption of the following standards which are of mandatory application for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018. These standards did not have an impact on the financial statements for the year: the amendment to IFRS 4, Applying IFRS 9, Financial Instruments • with IFRS 4, Insurance Contracts, applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018; IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, applicable to • fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018; the IFRS 15 clarification applicable to fiscal years beginning on or • after January 1, 2018; the amendment to IFRS 2, Classification and measurement of • share-based payment transactions, applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018; the amendment to IAS 40, Transfers of investment property, • applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018; IFRIC 22, Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance • Consideration, applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018; IFRS annual improvements (2014-2016 cycle) for IFRS 1 and IAS 28, • applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The principles adopted do not differ from the IFRS as published by the IASB. In addition, the Group did not opt for early application of the following standards and interpretations not of mandatory application in 2018: IFRS 16, Leases, applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after • January 1, 2019; the amendment to IFRS 9, Prepayment features, applicable to fiscal • years beginning on or after January 1, 2019; IFRIC 23, Uncertainty over income tax treatment, applicable to fiscal • years beginning on or after January 1, 2019; the amendments to IAS 28, Long-term interests in Associates and • Joint Ventures, applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2019 (not adopted by the European Union); IFRS annual improvements (2015-2017 cycle), applicable to fiscal • years beginning on or after January 1, 2019 (not adopted by the European Union); the amendments to IAS 19, Plan amendment, curtailment or • settlement, applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2020 (not adopted by the European Union); limited amendments to IFRS 3, Definition of a business, applicable • to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2020 (not adopted by the European Union); the amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8, Definition of material, • applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2020 (not adopted by the European Union);
