L’Oréal has subsidiaries in 68 countries with 60% of its turnover being achieved outside western Europe. World growth in the cosmetics market<br />

has led the group to develop its activities in countries in the “New Markets” zone, representing 37% of cosmetics sales. apart from the currency<br />

risks mentioned in the “Covering the exchange risk” document, pages 132 to 134 of the reference document and paragraph 2.3.7, political or<br />

economic disturbances in countries where the group achieves a significant part of its turnover, could affect its business.<br />

However, its highly globalised presence also favours a balance of sales and reward between countries and geographical areas. However, in<br />

periods of severe economic slowdown, growth in group turnover could be affected.<br />
