Financial Statements
2012
141
The change in equity investments is essentially due to:
- The acquisition of Owlient SAS for €31,755 thousand;
- The capital increase at Ubisoft Production Internationale SAS of €11,435 thousand;
- The capital increase at Ubisoft Montpellier SAS of €3,083 thousand;
- The sale of shares in connection with the legal reorganization of the French subsidiaries for
€2,128 thousand (see 3.5.1.3 Disposals and contribution of shares).
The change in other non-current investments reflects purchases and sales of treasury shares held
under the liquidity agreement.

The decrease in the provision for impairment of equity investments is mainly due to the increase in
useful value of shares in companies.

reduction in the accounts receivable balance.
