e terms of the procurement and logistics contract with the 

Of the gains on the disposal of non-current assets,  million relates
to the sale of the shares held in Sinotrans Ltd., China, and  million
to the sale of shares in  companies King’s Cross Central Property
Trust and King’s Cross Central General PartnerLtd.
e increase in income from currency translation is largely due
to the change in the exchange rate for the euro.
In the course of the exit from the  domestic Express business
in , impairment losses had been recognised on non-current
assets. Following the reorientation of the business and the success-
ful conclusion of the Express strategy –, the assets were
again tested for impairment, resulting in the reversal of impairment
losses in the amount of  million.
Income from the reversal of provisions in nancial year 
relates, amongst other things, to a reduction in a provision for
-related risks and the reassessment of the probability that a tax
obligation in Asia would occur, see also Note . e latter fell to
a level that allowed the relevant provision to be reversed. In the
previous year, the main factor inuencing income from the reversal
of provisions was a change in the estimated settlement payment
obligations assumed in the context of the restructuring measures in
the , Note .
Subsidies relate to grants for the purchase or production of
assets. e grants are reported as deferred income and recognised
in the income statement over the useful lives of the assets.
Miscellaneous other operating income includes a large number
of smaller individual items.
