21. Lease liabilities

Accounting policies

At the start of the lease period, the liability is measured on the basis of the present value of payments remaining payable to the lessor, i.e.:

  • fixed lease payments, minus any sums received from the lessor as stipulated in the contract;
  • variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, with future payments determined on the basis of the level of the index or rate on the commencement date of the lease;
  • payments to be made by the lessee under a residual value guarantee;
  • the exercise price of an option to purchase the underlying asset, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option;
  • penalties to be paid if an option to terminate the lease is exercised, if the lease term was determined on the assumption that the lessee would exercise that option.

The liability may be remeasured in the following situations: adjustment of the lease term; adjustment related to the assessment of whether the exercise of an option is reasonably certain or not; a new estimate of residual value guarantees; revision of rates or indices on which lease payments are based at the time those payments are adjusted.

At 31 December 2022, lease liabilities amounted to €2,102 million, including €1,580 million for the part at more than one year and €522 million for the part at less than one year. They totalled €2,098 million at 31 December 2021.

The net change in 2022 breaks down as follows:

  • new lease liabilities: increase of €656 million;
  • companies entering the consolidation scope: increase of €29 million;
  • repayments of lease liabilities: decrease of €613 million;
  • terminated leases: decrease of €71 million;
  • other changes: increase of €3 million.
