Management has presented the performance measure EBITDA because it monitors this performance measure at a consolidated level and it believes that this measure is relevant to an understanding of the group's financial performance. EBITDA is defined as net operating profit before interest, tax, depreciation, amortisation, impairment charges or impairment reversals and net losses or gains on the disposal of assets and investments (including translation differences recycled to profit or loss).
EBITDA is not a defined performance measure in IFRS Accounting Standards. The group's definition of EBITDA may not be comparable with similarly titled performance measures and disclosures by other entities.
