equity method. With regard to the companies accounted for at cost, Equity in losses includes the loss in value recorded in the year.
The negative Change in the scope of consolidation of 13 million euros, with reference to Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries,
is due to the line-by-line consolidation of some minor subsidiaries.
The amounts included in “Acquisitions and Capitalizations” (97 million euros) are mainly related to the following acquisitions and
capitalizations:
Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries (16 million euros): capitalization of the company Fiat Auto S.A. de Ahorro para Fines
Determinados (6 million euros), acquisition of the company BMI S.p.A. (4 million euros) and other minor companies (6 million
euros);
Investments in associated companies (74 million euros): acquisitions of the companies Maire Engineering S.p.A (35 million euros)
and Immobiliare Novoli S.p.A. (21 million euros); capitalization of the companies CNH Capital Europe S.A.S. (8 million euros),
CNH de Mexico SA de CV (5 million euros) and other minor companies (5 million euros);
Investments in other companies (7 million euros): acquisition of the company Lingotto S.p.A. (3 million euros) and other minor
companies (4 million euros).
Disposals and Other changes, which show a decrease of 288 million euros, refer principally to:
Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries (-184 million euros): the change refers to the dividends distributed by BUC-Banca
Unione Credito;
Investments in associated companies (-9 million euros): sale of the company Toro Targa Assicurazioni S.p.A. (-13 million euros)
and other minor companies (4 million euros);
Investments in other companies (-95 million euros): the decrease is due to the sale of Edison S.p.A. shares for 65 million euros
and the sale of the company Gas Turbine Technologies S.p.A. for 6 million euros, the liquidation of Kish Receivables Company (21
million euros) and sales of other minor companies (3 million euros).
