Note 20 – Income tax
On 6 October 2017, the Supreme Court in France judged the 3% tax paid by French companies on dividend distributions to be contrary to the French
Constitution. The decision of the Supreme Court gave rise to a return of the tax paid, together with the payment of interest. The Group has claimed a
repayment of dividend tax it has paid, of €5.4 million. The timing of the reimbursement is expected to be in 2018.
For the nine-month period ended 31 December 2017, net tax income amounted to €9.0 million. This amount can be broken down into a tax income of €3.7
million primarily received from subsidiaries which are consolidated for tax purposes (including a €17.4 million net tax income reduced by €13.7 million of
charges), as well as the claim described above.
