Financial Statements
The companies listed below and on pages 98 to 100 are those
which in the opinion of the directors, principally affect the amount
of profit and assets shown in the Unilever Group accounts.
The directors consider that those companies not listed are not
significant in relation to Unilever as a whole.
Full information as required by Articles 379 and 414 of Book 2,
Civil Code, in the Netherlands has been filed by Unilever N.V. with
the Commercial Registry in Rotterdam.
Particulars of PLC group companies and other significant holdings
as required by the United Kingdom Companies Act 1985 will be
annexed to the next Annual Return of Unilever PLC.
The main activities of the companies listed below are indicated
according to the following key:
Holding companies H
Foods F
Home & Personal Care P
Other Operations O
Unless otherwise indicated, the companies are incorporated and
principally operate in the countries under which they are shown.
The letters NV or PLC after the name of each country indicate
whether in the country concerned the shares in the companies
listed are held directly or indirectly by NV and/or by PLC. However,
shares in companies which were acquired with the acquisition of
Bestfoods in October 2000 are mainly held by Unilever United
States, Inc. As a result they are ultimately jointly owned by NV
and PLC in the ratio 75:25.
The percentage of equity capital directly or indirectly held by
NV or PLC is shown in the margin, except where it is 100%.
All percentages are rounded down to the nearest whole number.
