others, an analysis of the causes of the possible impairment and the time and the expected amount thereof. Likewise, factors<br />

such as technological obsolescence, the suspension of certain services and other changes in circumstances that create the need<br />

to assess possible impairment are taken into account.<br />

Fair Value of Derivatives and Other Financial Instruments<br />

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation<br />

techniques. We select a variety of methods and make assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at each<br />

balance sheet date. We have used discounted cash flow analysis as well as third party valuations to determine the fair value of<br />

the derivatives and other financial assets and liabilities.<br />

Deferred Income Tax and Tax Credits<br />

We assess the recoverability of deferred income tax assets and tax credits on the basis of estimates of future results.<br />

The recoverability will, in the final analysis, depend on our ability to generate taxable profits during the period in which the<br />

deferred income tax assets may be deducted. The analysis takes into account the taxable profits estimated on the basis of<br />

internal projections that are updated to reflect the most recent trends, assumptions and information. Actual flows of amounts<br />

received and paid for income tax may differ from our estimates as a result of changes in tax legislation or unforeseen future<br />

transactions that might affect the tax balances.<br />

Provisions<br />

Provisions are recognized when we have a present obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow<br />

of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. The obligation may be legal<br />

or constructive, derived from, among other factors, regulations, contracts, normal practices or public commitments that create<br />

a valid expectation for third parties that we will accept certain liabilities. The provision is measured by the best estimate of the<br />

payment that will be necessary to settle the relevant obligation, taking into consideration all the information available on the<br />

closing date for the financial statements, including the opinions of independent experts, such as legal advisors or consultants.<br />

Due to the unpredictability inherent in estimating the amount of provisions, the actual payments may differ from the amounts<br />

initially recognized on the basis of the estimates made.<br />
