In 2019, the Group reorganised its activities, mainly in France (€7.4 million), in Consulting and Systems Integration, at Sopra Banking Software (€5.2 million), in Spain (€4.1 million) and in Germany (€4.6 million). This essentially comprised expenses related to resource adjustments. In 2018, these mainly concerned the United Kingdom for €13.4 million; France for €4.7 million, of which €3.7 million related to its IT Infrastructure Management activities; Germany for €4.3 million; and the Solutions businesses, including Sopra Banking Software for €2.7 million and Sopra HR Software for €1.6 million.

Other operating income comprised the impact of asset disposals for €2.3 million in the United Kingdom, and non-recurring income not directly related to operating activity in Germany, mainly at Sopra Financial Technology GmbH.
