Financial review 2010 Amortization and impairment charge Amortization and impairment losses are recognized in depreciation, amortization and impairment expense in the income statement. Impairment testing for cash­generating units containing goodwill For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the business units of the Group, being the lowest level within the Group at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. The aggregate carrying amounts of goodwill allocated to each unit are as follows: EUR’000 2010 2009 Refresco Benelux 93,716 93,716 Refresco France 65,910 65,910 Refresco Germany 39,859 39,859 Refresco Iberia 35,716 35,716 Refresco Poland 13,242 12,796 Refresco UK 10,375 12,022 Refresco Scandinavia 11,314 11,314 The recoverable amounts of the cash­generating units are based on value­in­use calculations. 270,132 271,333 Value­in­use was determined by discounting the future pre­tax cash flows generated from the continuing use of the unit using a pre­tax discount rate and was based on the following key assumptions: • • Cash flows were projected based on the current operating results and the 3­year business plan. Future cash flows were extrapolated using a growth rate which is based on the growth expectations of the private label segment in the total local market. These growth expectations are retrieved from researches from independent external sources. Management believes that this forecast period was appropriate to the long­term nature of the business. A pre­tax discount rate of 10,7% (2009 10,0%) was applied in determining the recoverable amount of the units. This rate was based on a weighted average cost of capital applicable to the industry.

The values assigned to the key assumptions represent management’s assessment of future trends in the industry and are based on both external and internal sources (historical data). With the exception for UK, the recoverable amounts of the units were determined to be higher than their carrying values and accordingly no impairment charges have been recognized. The impairment of EUR 2,067,000 in the UK is mainly caused by a reduced expected growth of our activities in the local market. In 2009 EUR 975,000 was impaired in Poland. Sensitivity analysis If the undiscounted cash flow per cash­generating unit had been 10% lower than management’s estimates, that would have led to an additional reduction in the UK of the book value of goodwill by EUR 4.7 million at December 31, 2010. If the estimated pre­tax discount rate applied to calculate the present value of future cash flows had been one percentage point higher than management’s estimates, then that would have led to an additional reduction of the book value of goodwill in UK by EUR 4.2 million and in Poland by EUR 0.4 million at December 31, 2010. 4.3 Other investments Non­current investments The composition as at December 31 was as follows: EUR’000 2010 2009 note Securities and bonds 6.2 1,155 1,320 Current investments The composition as at December 31 was as follows: EUR’000 1,155 1,320 2010 2009 note Derivatives used for hedging 6.2 4,139 2,541 4,139 2,541 The exposure to credit, currency and interest rate risks related to other investments is disclosed in notes 3 and 6.2. page _ 80 / 81
