(1) Mainly due to the update of the tax exposure in France..

(2) Of which 31 million euros related to the use of tax losses and 16 million euros of tax losses recognition in France for Fiscal 2024.

The effective tax rate, calculated on profit before tax and excluding the share of profit of companies accounted for using the equity method, went from 24.6% for Fiscal 2023 to 25.4% for Fiscal 2024. The increase in the effective tax rate is mainly due to the update of the risk related to the tax exposure in France, partially offset by the non-taxable capital gain on the disposal of the Homecare business, as well as by better results in France, which allow the use and recognition of previously non-activated tax assets.
