The amount of the commitment has been calculated on the basis of rights vested at the balance sheet date, taking into account assumptions about final salary, discount rates and employee turnover.
This commitment, which is not recognized as a liability in the balance sheet, was estimated at 3 million euros as of August 31, 2025, including the impact of the IFRIC decision of May 2021.
Commitments related to a supplemental pension plan were estimated using the projected unit credit method based on final salary and net of funding for the plan. These commitments, amounting to 1 million euros at August 31, 2025, are not recognized in the financial statements.
No provision has been recorded in the balance sheet in respect of the new retirement plan implemented in Fiscal 2021, with the exception of the insurance premium to be paid. No off-balance sheet commitments are recorded, as the pensions are paid directly by the insurer.
