      KPI                                                     DEFINITION 
EBIT            The Company continues to use the term EBIT (Earnings before interest and taxes). It is identical to 
                Profit before finance result and income taxes as defined by IFRS Rules. 
Adjustment      Adjustment, an alternative performance measure, is a term used by the Company which includes material 
                charges or profits caused by movements in provisions related to programmes, restructuring or foreign 
                exchange impacts as well as capital gains/losses from the disposal and acquisition of businesses. 
EBIT Adjusted   The Company uses an alternative performance measure, EBIT Adjusted, as a key indicator capturing the 
                underlying business margin by excluding material charges or profits caused by movements in provisions 
                related to programmes, restructuring or foreign exchange impacts as well as capital gains/losses from 
                the disposal and acquisition of businesses. 
EPS Adjusted    EPS Adjusted is an alternative performance measure of basic earnings per share as reported whereby the 
                net income as the numerator does include Adjustments. For reconciliation, see the Analyst presentation. 
Gross cash      The Company defines its consolidated gross cash position as the sum of (i) cash and cash equivalents 
position        and (ii) securities (all as recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position). 
Net cash        For the definition of the alternative performance measure net cash position, see the Universal 
position        Registration Document, MD&A section 2.1.6. 
FCF             For the definition of the alternative performance measure free cash flow, see the Universal 
                Registration Document, MD&A section 2.1.6.1. It is a key indicator which allows the Company to measure 
                the amount of cash flow generated from operations after cash used in investing activities. 
FCF before M&A  Free cash flow before mergers and acquisitions refers to free cash flow as defined in the Universal 
                Registration Document, MD&A section 2.1.6.1 adjusted for net proceeds from disposals and acquisitions. 
                It is an alternative performance measure and key indicator that reflects free cash flow excluding those 
                cash flows resulting from acquisitions and disposals of businesses. 
FCF before M&A  Free cash flow before M&A and customer financing refers to free cash flow before mergers and 
and customer    acquisitions adjusted for cash flow related to aircraft financing activities. It is an alternative 
financing       performance measure and indicator that may be used occasionally by the Company in its financial 
                guidance, especially when there is higher uncertainty around customer financing activities.
