Presentation of financial information

Accounting policies

Thales's condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2021 have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of IAS 34 (Interim Financial Reporting) and with the International financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) approved by the European Union at 30 June 20204.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies applied by the Group for the full-year financial statements at 31 December 2020 (as described in the notes 1 and 13 to the consolidated financial statements).

Adjusted income statement

In order to facilitate the monitoring and benchmarking of its financial and operating performance, the Group presents three key non-GAAP indicators, which exclude non-operating and/or non- recurring items. They are determined as follows:

  • EBIT, an adjusted operating indicator, corresponds to income from operations plus the share in the net income of equity-accounted companies, before the impact of entries recorded as part of business combinations (amortisation of assets valued when determining the purchase price allocation, other expenses directly related to acquisitions).
  • Adjusted net income corresponds to net income, excluding the following items and net of the corresponding tax effects:
    • amortisation of assets valued when determining the purchase price allocation (business combinations);
    • expenses recognised in income from operations or in finance costs that are directly related to business combinations;
    • gains and losses on disposals of assets, changes in scope of consolidation and other;
    • impairment of non-current assets;
    • changes in the fair value of derivative foreign exchange instruments (recognised under
      "Other financial income and expenses" in the consolidated financial statements);
    • actuarial gains (losses) on long-term benefits (recognised under "Finance costs on pensions and other long-term employee benefits" in the consolidated financial statements).
  • Free operating cash flow corresponds to the net cash flow from operating activities before contributions to reduce the pension deficit in the United Kingdom, and after deducting net operating investments.

Defining EBIT and adjusted net income involves defining other operating indicators in the adjusted income statement, specifically, adjusted cost of sales, adjusted gross margin (corresponding to the difference between sales and the adjusted cost of sales), adjusted indirect costs, other adjusted financial income, adjusted financial income on pensions and long-term benefits, adjusted income tax, adjusted net income, Group share, per share, calculated as described on pages 5 and 6.
