CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
5NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note7
Restructuring costs
Restructuring costs totaled EUR96million over the period. They mainly relate to industrial and support function reorganisations in Europe
(approximately EUR54million) and in North America (approximately EUR22million).
2010 2009
Amortisation of purchase accounting intangibles (213) (109)
Impairment of purchase accounting intangibles - (32)
Goodwill impairment (15) (90)
AMORTISATION AND IMPAIRMENT OF PURCHASE ACCOUNTING INTANGIBLES (228) (231)
Note8
Amortisation and impairment of purchase accounting intangibles
The amortisation of purchase accounting intangibles, which totaled
EUR213million over the period, includes EUR43million that
correspond to the Areva Distribution business.
The migration of the Group’s brands towards the Schneider Electric
brand (One Brand project) has led to the amortisation from January1,
2010 of the Xantrex, TAC and MGE brands over a six-year period.
The corresponding amortisation expense totaled EUR56million over
the year. Impairment losses totaling EUR15million are recognised on
goodwill relating to two small businesses in Europe currently being
sold.
Impairment tests performed on all the Group’s CGUs have not led to
impairment losses being recognised. Analysis of the test’s discount
rate sensitivity shows impairment losses would not be recognised in
the case of a 0.5 point increase in the discount rate.
Note9

2010 2009
