Concessions, licences and similar rights include the costs incurred for the development and registration of owned trademarks
which are amortised on a straight-line basis over three years.
Other intangible assets relate to leasehold improvements. They are amortised over the term of the related leases (4 and 12 years).
Intangible assets in progress and advances relate to costs for administrative registration procedures of trademarks that had not
been finalised at year end, which are therefore not amortised.
Amortisation of intangible assets is recognised under Other operating costs in the Income Statement (Note 6).
Details of deferred tax liabilities net of deferred tax assets may be analysed as follows:

Deferred tax assets have been recognised by carrying out a critical analysis to ensure that the conditions for their future realisation
exist, through the use of updated strategic business plans and the related tax plans. As a consequence, the total theoretical future
tax benefits arising from deductible temporary differences (165,055 thousand euros at December 31, 2006 and 427,943 thousand
euros at December 31, 2005) and tax loss carryforward (232,867 thousand euros at December 31, 2006 and 143,089 thousand euros
at December 31, 2005), has been reduced by 353,721 thousand euros at December 31, 2006 (446,521 thousand euros at December
31, 2005).
