Consolidated statement of cash flows (XLS:) Download millions of € Q32019 Q32018 Q1-Q32019 Q1-Q32018 FY2018 a The payments and proceeds shown here relate to those investments in the broadband build-out that are publicly financed in full. Since the payments are not made at the same point in time as the proceeds are received, the net amounts can be positive or negative in the individual periods. These investments are not included in the operational KPIs “Cash capex” and “Free cash flow,” because the payments made do not result in additions to property, plant and equipment. For more information on the change in estimates for publicly funded investments in the broadband build-out, please refer to the section “Changes in accounting policies, changes in estimates.” PROFIT (LOSS) BEFORE INCOME TAXES 2,442 2,029 6,178 4,956 5,153 Depreciation, amortization and impairment losses 4,256 3,344 12,811 9,645 13,836 (Profit) loss from financial activities 615 502 1,488 2,098 2,848 (Profit) loss on the disposal of fully consolidated subsidiaries 0 0 12 0 0 (Income) loss from the sale of stakes accounted for using the equity method (142) 0 (143) 0 0 Other non-cash transactions 118 103 432 333 430 (Gains) losses from the disposal of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment 41 5 82 (86) (126) Change in assets carried as operating working capital 77 (475) 423 (112) (998) Change in other operating assets (35) (130) (427) (182) (337) Change in provisions 104 168 (292) (500) (100) Change in liabilities carried as operating working capital (519) (27) (945) (1,281) (515) Change in other operating liabilities (256) (46) 207 402 (11) Income taxes received (paid) (176) (241) (546) (463) (697) Dividends received 2 7 15 180 181 Net payments from entering into, canceling or changing the terms and conditions of interest rate derivatives 0 0 0 0 0 CASH GENERATED FROM OPERATIONS 6,528 5,238 19,294 14,990 19,663 Interest paid (917) (724) (2,984) (2,568) (3,307) Interest received 312 339 1,221 1,119 1,592 NET CASH FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES 5,924 4,853 17,531 13,542 17,948 Cash outflows for investments in Intangible assets (762) (769) (3,601) (2,458) (3,353) Property, plant and equipment (2,417) (2,349) (7,606) (6,893) (9,139) Non-current financial assets (276) (313) (355) (517) (639) Payments for publicly funded investments in the broadband build-outa (236) n.a.
