9.2 Goodwill impairment test<br />
In 2015, Vivendi tested the value of goodwill allocated to its Cash-Generating Units (CGUs) or groups of CGU applying valuation methods<br />
consistent with previous years. Vivendi ensured that the recoverable amount of CGU or groups of CGU exceeded their carrying value<br />
(including goodwill). The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the value in use determined by the discounted value of future<br />
cash flows (Discounted Cash Flow method (DCF)) and the fair value (less costs to sell), determined on the basis of market data (stock market<br />
prices, comparable listed companies, comparison with the value attributed to similar assets or companies in recent transactions). For a<br />
description of the methods used for the impairment test, please refer to Note 1.3.5.7.<br />

a. Related to pay-TV in France overseas, Africa and Vietnam.<br />
b. The process of integrating free-to-air TV operations (D8/D17 channels acquired on September 27, 2012) with pay-TV operations in<br />
mainland France, as well as the development of pay-TV in Poland and Vietnam reflects the further convergence of pay-TV and free-to-air<br />
TV operations in countries in which Canal+ Group operates. As a result, as of December 31, 2015, Vivendi performed a goodwill<br />
impairment test related to pay-TV and free-to-air TV operations in France, Poland, Africa and Vietnam by aggregating the CGU of pay-TV<br />
in Mainland France, Canal+ Overseas, nc+ and free-to-air TV, which corresponds to the level of monitoring the return on such<br />
investments.<br />
c. Goodwill attributable to Digitick and MyBestPro (formerly Wengo) were fully impaired as of December 31, 2014.<br />
d. As of December 31, 2015, no goodwill impairment test attributable to Dailymotion and Radionomy were undertaken given that the<br />
acquisition dates of Dailymotion and Radionomy (June 30, 2015 and December 17, 2015, respectively) were close to the closing date.<br />
During the fourth quarter of 2015, Vivendi performed a goodwill impairment test on each CGU or groups of CGU, on the basis of valuations of<br />
recoverable amounts determined with the assistance of third-party appraisers, for pay-TV and free-to-air TV in France, Africa and Vietnam as<br />
well as Universal Music Group and internal valuations for nc+ in Poland, Studiocanal and See Tickets. As a result, Vivendi Management<br />
concluded that, as of December 31, 2015, the recoverable amount for each CGU or groups of CGU tested exceeded their carrying value.<br />
