Economic/financial results
The Shortened Consolidation data is prepared by EXOR on the basis of a “shortened” method of consolidation in which the data derived from the IFRS financial statements of EXOR and of the subsidiaries of the Holdings System: (EXOR Nederland N.V.; EXOR S.A.; Ancom USA Inc.; Exor SN LLC; Exor Capital DAC; Exor Investments Limited) are included in the consolidated financial statements of the parent company EXOR using the line-by-line method, while the data derived from the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS of the operating subsidiaries and affiliates (PartnerRe, FCA, CNH Industrial, Ferrari, The Economist Group and Juventus Football Club) are consolidated using the equity method.
EXOR holds its investments and manages its financial resources directly or through certain subsidiaries. These companies, together with the holding company, EXOR, constitute the so-called “Holdings System”.
EXOR believes that these data and information facilitate analysis of the financial position and results of EXOR; in addition the shortened consolidation method are recognized by the financial community, by financial counterparties and by the ratings agencies.
Nevertheless, such data do not fully represent, nor should be treated as the consolidated financial position of the EXOR Group prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). In fact the shortened consolidation method is not contemplated in the reference accounting standards on the presentation of consolidated financial statements and may not be consistent with the method adopted by other groups and, therefore, such data may not be comparable with the data reported by such groups. The consolidated data prepared in shortened form are not audited by the independent auditors.
