Only the changes in the ineffective part of the fair value of cash flow hedging instruments, as well as changes in the fair value of trading instru-

ments, are taken into account here. The changes in the effective part of the fair value of cash flow hedging instruments are booked directly

under “Other elements of the global result”.

When the relationship between a cash flow hedging instrument and the hedged risk is terminated (even partially), the cumulated gain or loss

at that date, until then deferred under equity, is recycled under the income statement.

The change in the fair value of the authorised hedging instruments not qualifying for hedge accounting results from the impact of the interest

rates decrease on their valuation.

The impact of the recycling under the income statement of hedging instruments which relationship with the hedged risk was terminated results

from the restructuting of FLOOR options which were cancelled in 2014, for a notional amount of €600million and extending until the end of 2017.

This operation will lead to lower interest charges in the coming years. The total cost of the restructuring amounts to €56million. For more details

on the hedging policy, see the chapters “Risk factors” and “Management of financial resources” of this Annual Financial Report.
