OPERATING MARGIN AND OPERATING MARGIN EXCLUDING ENERGY

The operating margin is the ratio of the operating income recurring divided by revenue. The operating margin excluding energy corresponds to the operating income recurring, not affected by the indexation effect of electricity and natural gas, divided by revenue excluding the energy impact. Natural Gas and Electricity impacts used for this calculation include currency impact on their respective amounts.

RECURRING NET PROFIT GROUP SHARE

The recurring net profit Group share corresponds to the net profit Group share excluding exceptional and significant transactions that have no impact on the operating income recurring.

The recurring net profit Group share in 1(st) half 2020 excluded the exceptional expenses (after-tax) linked to the management of the COVID-19 pandemic during the period. It reached 1,113.1 million euros.

The recurring net profit Group share in 1(st) half 2019 excluded the provision for the after-tax loss on the Fujian Shenyuan divestment. It reached 1,126.0 million euros.

RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED - ROCE

Return on capital employed after tax is calculated based on the Group's consolidated financial statements, by applying the following ratio for the period in question.

For the numerator: net profit excluding IFRS16 - net finance costs after taxes for the period considered.

For the denominator: the average of (total shareholders' equity excluding IFRS16 + net debt) at the end of the past three half-years.
