FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Combined financial statements and notes
Transactions on the income statements are translated at the average rate. The Group share of the difference between income translated at the average rate and income translated at the closing rate is recorded under “Unrealised foreign exchange adjustments”, and the remaining balance is included in “Non ‑ controlling interests”.
(e) Deconsolidation When an entity is in run ‑ off mode (no longer taking new business) and the main aggregates of the balance sheet or the income statement are not significant compared with those of the Group, this entity is deconsolidated. The securities of such entity are then posted on the basis of their equivalent value, under securities held for sale at the time of deconsolidation. Subsequent changes in values are recorded in accordance with the methodology defined for this type of securities.
Internal transactions between companies combined by Groupama
2.3.5
All transactions within the Group are eliminated. When these transactions affect combined net income, profits and losses as well as capital gains and losses are 100% eliminated then divided between the interests of the combining company and the non ‑ controlling interests in the Company having generated the net income. When eliminating losses, the Group ensures that the value of the disposed asset is not permanently changed. The elimination of impacts of internal transactions involving assets brings them down to their value when they entered the combined balance sheet (consolidated historical cost). Consequently, inter ‑ company transactions on the following must be eliminated: reciprocal receivables and payables as well as reciprocal income and expenses; ❯ notes receivable and notes payable are offset but, if the receivable is discounted, the credit facility granted to the Group is substituted for the note payable; ❯ transactions affecting commitments received and given; ❯ inward reinsurance, outward reinsurance, and retrocessions; ❯ co ‑ insurance and co ‑ reinsurance operations and pooled management; ❯ broker and intermediation transactions; ❯ contractual sharing of premium income of group policies; ❯ reserves for the write ‑ down of equity interests funded by the Company holding the securities and, if applicable, reserves for contingencies and charges recognised because of losses suffered by exclusively controlled companies; ❯ transactions on forward financial instruments; ❯ capital gains and losses from internal transfer of insurance investments; ❯ intra ‑ Group dividends. ❯

Restatements under the principles of consistency are made when they are material.
