2-Activity on a like-for-like basis
Activity should be analysed taking into consideration the changes in the scope of consolidation following:
the divestment in 2014 of the casinos of Knokke, Dinant & Hauteville, and of Hilton Hotel in Lyon and Garden
Beach Hotel in Juan-les-Pins, as well as the divestment in 2015 of Chaudfontaine casino, on the one hand, the closure end of June 2015 of the casino of La Trinité sur Mer, on the other hand,
as these companies were partially accounted for in the statements of both fiscal years under review. The following
tables show the changes on a like-for-like basis.
The regulatory changes in the levies were progressively recognized during the fiscal year, positively impacting the 1st
half-year 2015 up to €1.7M. An opposite correction was applied in 3rd quarter 2015.
Over the total period, the application of the regulatory changes in the levies will have a positive impact on the NGR.
