2013 sales adjusted for impact of retrospective application of IFRS 11 and 2014 / adjusted 2013 changes

Organic growth is growth at constant scope of consolidation and exchange rates, excluding petrol and calendar effect, unless otherwise mentioned.

The 2013 net sales figures presented below ("Q4 2013 adjusted”) have been restated for retrospective application of IFRS 11 eliminating 2013 proportional consolidation. The Group’s joint-ventures are now accounted in equity. The main companies impacted by the application of IFRS 11 and now accounted in equity are:

• In France : Geimex (Leader Price international brand) in Q4 2013 and Q4 2014
• In Uruguay : Disco in Q4 2013 and Q4 2014

The adjusted Q3 2013 net sales figure presented below is €82 million lower than the published 2013 net sales figure, mainly in respect of Disco and Geimex.

E-commerce sales are recorded on receipt of goods by the customers. The consolidated Q3 2013 figures have been adjusted accordingly as have the rental revenues for GPA's shopping malls.

2013 restated net sales result from retrospective application of IFRS 11 (elimination in 2014 of proportional consolidation of the Group’s joint ventures). This restatement is not taken into account in the changes presented in this table, which are expressed in relation to Q4 2013 figures as published in 2013. The figures published in 2014 take into account the elimination of proportional consolidation.
