SOMFY // 2022 Annual Report

05 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOREIGN EXCHANGE TRANSLATION NOTE 2.2

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS NOTE 2.3

Accounting principle Note 2.3.1

The consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2022 have been prepared in Euros, which is the parent company’s functional currency. Each Group entity determines its functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each of these entities are measured in this functional currency. Accounting principles Note 2.2.1 RECOGNITION OF FOREIGN CURRENCY DENOMINATED TRANSACTIONS IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF CONSOLIDATED COMPANIES All foreign currency denominated transactions are translated at the exchange rate applicable on the transaction date. Foreign currency denominated amounts included in the balance sheet are translated at the exchange rate applicable at year-end. Resulting translation differences are recorded in the income statement. TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN SUBSIDIARIES’ FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The financial statements of Group companies which have a different functional currency to the parent company are translated into Euro, as follows: – assets and liabilities are converted into Euros at the year-end exchange rate; – income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period, provided significant variations in the exchange rates do not call this method into question; – the resulting translation adjustments are recognised in items of other comprehensive income with a corresponding entry in the translation reserve under shareholders’ equity. Unrealised exchange differences relating to monetary values that are an integral part of the net investment in foreign subsidiaries are recorded in the translation adjustment reserve in equity until the disposal of the investment, at which date they are taken to the income statement.

When a company is incorporated in the consolidation scope, the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired entity are measured at fair value measured at the date of acquisition, except for non-current assets classified as assets held for sale, which are recognised at the fair value net of disposal costs. Goodwill is measured as the difference between total identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired entity, individually estimated at fair value, and the transferred consideration (purchase price) measured at fair value of the assets transferred. At the date of the acquisition and for each business combination, the Group can opt for the partial goodwill method (limited to the equity interest acquired by the Group) or for the full goodwill method. If it opts for the full goodwill method, minority interests are measured at fair value and the Group recognises goodwill on all identifiable assets and liabilities. Business combinations prior to 1 January 2010 have been treated in accordance with the partial goodwill method, which was the only method applicable until that date. In the case of a business combination achieved in stages, the previously held equity interest is remeasured at fair value at the date control is acquired. The difference between the fair value and the net book value of this investment is recognised directly in operating profit. Restatements of asset and liability values relating to acquisitions recognised on a provisional basis (due to expertise work in progress or supplementary analyses) are recognised as retrospective restatements of goodwill if they occur within 12 months following the acquisition date. Beyond this deadline, the impacts of restatements are directly recognised in profit or loss for the financial year, except for error corrections. In addition, earn-out payments are included in the acquisition cost at their fair value at the acquisition date and regardless of their probability. During the valuation period, subsequent adjustments are offset against goodwill where they relate to facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. If not, and after the end of this period, adjustments to earn-out payments are recognised directly in the income statement, unless the earn-out payments are offset against an equity instrument. Newly acquired companies are consolidated from the date effective control is assumed.

Detailed information Note 2.2.2

The Group has subsidiaries in Turkey and Argentina, whose economies were considered hyperinflationary at 31 December 2022. IAS 29 therefore applies to these entities, whose functional currencies are the Turkish lira and the Argentine peso. Application of this standard primarily impacts sales generated by the Group in Turkey (+€0.29 million) with a limited impact on profits and the balance sheet.
