126 Unilever Annual Report and Accounts 2006
Financial Statements (continued)
Financial record (continued) Unilever Group
Financial record under previous GAAP
Unilever adopted International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU with effect from 1 January 2005, with a transition date of
1January 2004. Information for the period from 2002 to 2004 as reported under our previous accounting policies (which is not directly
comparable with IFRS) is set out below and on pages 127 and 128.
This information is derived from the audited consolidated accounts of the Unilever Group for the years 2002 to 2004, and should be read in
the context of those accounts and notes. Those accounts were prepared under the accounting policies which the Group applied prior to its
adoption of IFRS. These were based on United Kingdom accounting standards and applicable Dutch and UK law. Further information can
be found in the ‘Accounting information and policies’ sections of the Report and Accounts for the years in question.
The adoption, in 2003, of UK Financial Reporting Standard 17 on pensions accounting was reflected by restating the consolidated profit and
loss accounts for the years ended and the balance sheets as at 31 December 2002 and 31 December 2001.
