DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES 11.2

Accounting principles Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized when temporary differences arise between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and their tax base, irrespective of when the tax is expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability settled based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are offset at the level of each tax entity. The tax entity may either be a single entity or a tax consolidation group. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the entity will be able to recover them in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized as a tax benefit or expense in the income statement, except for: revaluation differences on post-employment benefits; ● unrealized gains and losses on financial assets at fair value ● through other comprehensive income; changes in the fair value of derivatives used as cash flow hedges; ● for which the corresponding deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized as unrealized gains and losses directly in other comprehensive income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted to their present value.
