6. Other financial income and expense

Accounting policies

Other financial income and expense comprises mainly discounting effects, the impact of capitalised borrowing costs, foreign exchange gains and losses relating to financial items and changes in the value of equity instruments and derivatives not allocated to hedging interest rate or exchange rate risk, along with financial expense relating to lease liabilities under IFRS 16.

Capitalised borrowing costs relate to infrastructure under concession and are included during the construction period in the value of those assets. They are determined as follows:

  • To the extent that funds are borrowed specifically for the purpose of constructing an asset, the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation on that asset are the actual borrowing costs incurred during the period less any investment income arising from the temporary investment of those borrowings.
  • When borrowing is not intended to finance a specific project, the interest eligible for capitalisation on an asset is determined by applying a financing rate to the expenditure on that asset. This rate is equal to the weighted average of the costs of borrowing funds, other than those specifically intended for the construction of given assets.

This does not relate to the construction of concession assets accounted for using the financial asset model (see Note F.14, “PPP financial receivables”).

In 2022, discounting effects represented income of €56 million as opposed to an expense of €30 million in 2021. The difference resulted mainly from the discounting effect arising from provisions for the obligation to maintain the condition of concession intangible assets, which represented income of €72 million (expense of €2 million in 2021), including €63 million at VINCI Autoroutes (expense of €3 million in 2021). The net financial expense arising from the discounting of provisions for retirement benefit obligations was stable at €14 million. Effects arising from the discounting of provisions for fixed fees payable to concession grantors in relation to Salvador airport in Brazil and Belgrade airport in Serbia represented an expense of €13 million.

Capitalised borrowing costs mainly related to VINCI Autoroutes, Belgrade airport in Serbia and London Gatwick airport in the United Kingdom.

There was a foreign exchange gain of €25 million in 2022 (€10 million in 2021). Other changes in fair value include the €94 million increase in the value of the stake in Groupe ADP and the €131 million gain arising from the early redemption of bonds by London Gatwick airport.
