Consistently with this change, the values of “Net inventories” and “Other payables” at December 31, 2003 were adjusted by 428 million euros. Inventories are shown net of advances received for contract work in progress (8,477 million euros at June 30, 2004 and 8,876 million euros at December 31, 2003). (2) Including the exchangeable bond for an amount of 1,765 million euros (at December 31, 2003) redeemable during 2004.
Intangible fixed assets Intangible fixed assets totaled 3,694 million euros, 30 million euros less than the 3,724 million euros at December 31, 2003. In the first six months of 2004, amortization (233 million euros) more than offset increases during the period, which resulted mainly from the capitalization of software costs and other deferred charges benefiting future periods (79 million euros) and foreign exchange differences (96 million euros). Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment totaled 9,465 million euros (9,675 million euros at December 31, 2003). The 210-million-euro decrease substantially reflected the effect of disposals during the first half. The increases for investments, change in the scope of consolidation (64 million euros, attributable principally to line-by-line consolidation of Magneti Marelli Electronic Systems), and foreign exchange differences (52 million euros) were entirely set off by depreciation for the period. In the first half of 2004, investments in fixed assets totaled 739 million euros (771 million euros in the first half of 2003, which included 33 million euros for FiatAvio), inclusive of investments in long-term leasing activities totaling 180 million euros, in line with those made in the first half of 2003, which totaled 183 million euros. In the first half of 2004, depreciation of property, plant and equipment totaled 846 million euros (922 million euros in the first half of 2003). At June 30, 2004, accumulated depreciation and writedowns of fixed assets totaled 18,084 million euros, corresponding to about 66% of gross fixed assets, compared with approximately 64% at December 31, 2003. Financial fixed assets Financial fixed assets totaled 3,812 million euros, compared with 3,950 million euros at December 31, 2003. The reduction, equal to 138 million euros, is mainly attributable to the dividends paid by BUC – Banca Unione di Credito (184 million euros), valued according to the equity method, which was only partially set off by the increases posted in particular by certain investments in the Automobiles sector (Fiat-GM Powertrain B.V., 37 million euros and Fidis Retail Italia S.p.A., 24 million euros). Financial assets not held as fixed assets Financial assets not held as fixed assets, totaling 119 million euros, are in line with those reported at December 31, 2003. Deferred income taxes Deferred tax assets net of deferred income tax reserves at June 30, 2004 totaled 1,614 million euros, compared with the balance of 1,668 million euros at December 31, 2003. The slight decrease (-54 million euros) is attributable to the use of previously accrued deferred tax assets and new accruals of 82 million euros, net of a foreign exchange effect of 18 million 12 Operating Performance and Financial Position of the Fiat Group and Fiat S.p.A. in the First Half of 2004 euros and a change in the scope of consolidation and other changes of 10 million euros. Working capital At June 30, 2004 the Group had negative working capital of 852 million euros, representing an increase of 1,282 million euros compared to the negative working capital of 2,134 million euros posted at December 31, 2003. The following table shows the breakdown of working capital: At 6.30.2003 (in millions of euros) At 6.30.2004 At 12.31.2003 Change 7,042 Net inventories (1) 6,455 6,484 (29) 5,858 Trade receivables 5,459 4,553 906 (12,741) Trade payables (11,838) (12,588) 750 Other receivables/ (1,768) (payables) (1) (928) (583) (345) (1,609) Working capital (852) (2,134) 1,282 (1) To provide a uniform comparison, the value of Net inventories and the balance of Other receivables/(payables) at June 30, 2003 has been adjusted by a total of 335 million euros. Similar adjustments were made to the same items at December 31, 2003: their description is found in the note at the end of the Fiat Group Balance Sheet. The increase posted in the first six months of 2004 (1,282 million euros) is mainly attributable to the requirements generated by: ❚ increase in the trade receivables of Fiat Auto, CNH, and Iveco due to seasonal factors and an increase in sales; and ❚ a decrease in trade payables, principally those of Fiat Auto, whose output leveled off after major increases in the last quarter of 2003 upon introduction of new models. Net inventories were substantially in line with those posted at December 31, 2003: the effect of continuous inventory reductions at Fiat Auto (which was impacted at the start of the fiscal year by the introduction of new models), was set off by the seasonal increase of inventories at Iveco and CNH. In particular, the latter usually reports growth in the first half of the year, which is reabsorbed during the second half. The balance of net payables at the item “Other receivables/(payables)” increased, mainly due to the reduction in receivables from Tax Authorities (principally for VAT). Reserves Reserves totaled 6,656 million euros, compared with the 6,481 million euros reported at December 31, 2003. The increase is attributable to accruals during the period, net of utilizations, largely at Fiat Auto, CNH, and Iveco. At June 30, 2004 the reserves were comprised principally of: tax reserves (78 million euros), warranty reserves (825 million euros), restructuring reserves (437 million euros), reserves for pensions (1,545 million euros), reserves for employee severance indemnities (1,317 million euros), and reserves for other risks and charges (2,361 million euros). Net invested capital Net invested capital totaled 11,196 million euros, against 10,522 million euros at December 31, 2003. The increase of 674 million
