Restructuring provisions

These include an estimate of the closure or restructuring costs of certain activities resulting from plans that were announced but not yet executed at the end of 2025 (mainly severance pay). The plans, detailed by project and by type, have been subject to a prior approval by executive management. They are monitored centrally to ensure that the provision is used up in line with the costs actually incurred, and to justify the balance remaining at year-end in terms of outstanding cost to be incurred.

Vacant property provisions

If a property is vacant and is not intended to be used in the core activity, a provision is made including facility management expenses, taxes and any other costs. This provision does not include lease payments, which are recognized as an impairment of right-of-use assets related to leases.
