Presentation of key assumptions used for the determination of recoverable amounts
The value in use of each CGU or groups of CGU is determined as the discounted value of future cash flows by using cash flow projections consistent with
the 2015 budget and the most recent forecasts prepared by the operating segments. These forecasts are prepared for each operating segment, on the
basis of financial targets as well as the following main key assumptions: discount rate, perpetual growth rate and EBITA as defined in Note 1.2.3, capital
expenditures, the competitive and regulatory environments, technological developments and level of commercial expenses. The recoverable amount for
each CGU or groups of CGU was determined based on its value in use in accordance with the main key assumptions set out below.
