Net fixed assets amounted to Euro 2,480 million at 31 December 2015, compared with Euro 2,219 million at
31 December 2014, posting an increase of Euro 261 million mainly due to the combined effect of the
following factors:

Euro 275 million in increases for business combinations completed during 2015;
Euro 171 million in depreciation, amortisation and impairment charges for the year;
Euro 10 million in decreases for disposals;
Euro 48 million in net decrease in equity-accounted investments, primarily reflecting:

a decrease of Euro 17 million for dividend receipts;

a net decrease of Euro 69 million as a result of now consolidating Oman Cables Industry (SAOG)
