As a result of the agreement concluded on July 13, 2022, from the third quarter of 2022, the GD tower companies are recognized in the consolidated financial statements as a discontinued operation. The consolidated statement of cash flows continues to include the discontinued operation in the Group Development operating segment. The top line of the consolidated statement of cash flows is profit before income taxes, which includes the profit of both the continuing operations and the discontinued operation. In the consolidated statement of cash flows, the contributions by the GD tower companies are each stated in a separate “of which” line item.
