    Ladies and Gentlemen,

    In accordance with the Law and our Articles of association, we havecalled you to an Ordinary General Meeting to give you an account of thebusiness of our company and its subsidiaries over the last financial yearand to submit the company accounts and the consolidated accountsclosed on 31 December 2006 for your approval.

    The consolidated turnover amounted to 196.8 M as against 200.2 Min 2005, a fall of 1.7%.

    For the Extrusion Sector, the weakness of the European automobilemarket in 2006, characterised by marked falls in some markets (UnitedKingdom, France and Spain), has had a particularly unfavourable impacton our major clients. The fall in this Sector came to 3.6%, aftercorrection brought about by the firmness of sales for our subsidiary inGermany (+ 3.4%) in a rising local market.

    The turnover for the Pumps Sector remains stable (+ 1%). The increasein sales of industrial pumps and the firmness of other fields of activity(food industry and ancillary services for the oil industry) have enabledus to maintain the value of sales in this sector.

    Thanks to the high level of activity over the last quarter of the year,particularly in the field of carburettors for spare parts whichcompensated for the fall on the original equipment market, on the onehand, and, on the other hand, the weakness of demand from a majorclient in the field of natural gas, the turnover of the MechanicalEngineering Sector remained in the end stable.

    The current consolidated operational result has declined by 11%(6.3M against 7.0 M). The net fall of the Extrusion Sector, due to a

    marked reduction in business activity in France found over the secondhalf of 2006 for major clients, the continuing effects of the costs of rawmaterials and the runaway costs of energy and supplies, werecompensated for by good business in the Pumps Sector in all fields.

    The consolidated operating income amounted to 6.3 M against5.6 M in 2005, a year which included industrial restructuring costs.

    The financial result is negative at 1.1 M against 0.3 M in 2005,because of the increase in bank debts in the Extrusion Sector andbecause the positive exchange rates which occurred in the PumpsSector in 2005 did not recur.

    In the end, the Groups net consolidated result amounted to 4.4 M asagainst 5.3 M in 2005.

    The contribution of the various business sectors to the overallconsolidated results is expanded in the Appendix to the consolidatedaccounts.

    The businesses of companies included within the Group are expandedbelow:

    Businesses of the Parent Company

    Gvelot S.A.

    The turnover of the Parent Company, GEVELOT S.A., comprising rentsand services, amounted to 3,451 K, 5.2% down on 2005, mainlybecause our subsidiaries handed back offices in Levallois-Perretwhich they had been renting since October 2006 and also industrial

    premises transferred to Messei (Orne) in February 2007.

    The operational result for the financial year amounted to 540 Kagainst 832 K in 2005.

    The financial result amounted to 2,155 K against 2,813 K in 2005

    which includes the contribution of dividends from our subsidiaries

    which amounts to 1,688 K

    against 2,501 K

    in 2005. This fall wasessentially caused by the non-renewal of the Extrusion dividend paidduring the 2004 financial year on the successful conclusion of earlier

    disputes.

    The current result before tax amounts to 2,696 K against 3,645 Kin 2005.

    The extraordinary result is negative at 1,231 K against 1,319 K in2005. It includes an intra-Group provision for future tax on our

    Subsidiaries deficits which can be carried over for 916 K, a charge

    for exceptional net financial amortizations of 345 K. In addition,

    various exceptional net products have been identified, amounting to

    30 K.

    After a charge for Company tax of 305 K and making a 1,012 Ktax saving under the fiscal integration system, the net company profit

    amounts to 2,171 K against a net positive result of 3,378 K in

    2005.

    Businesses of the subsidiariesExtrusion Sector, Machining

    The consolidated sales in this sector amounted to 115.4 M, a fall of3.6% on 2005.

    Intangible and tangible investments amounted to 12.3 M against

    15.5 M in 2005.

    Gvelot ExtrusionIn a European automobile market which remained stable at + 0.7%,

    marked by the net fall in volume and market share for French brands,

    the 2006 turnover amounted to 68,806 K, a fall of 8.5% comparedwith 2005.

    The operational result showed a deficit of 995 K (after a charge for

    financial amortizations increased by 619 K) against a positive result

    of 369 K in 2005. This fall takes account of the reductions in

    volumes identified particularly in the third quarter of 2006, persistent

    industrial malfunctions on the Laval Site (Mayenne) and difficulties inmaking profitable new products on the Offranville.

    The financial result of 860 K against 440 K in 2005 appears

    negative because of the increase in debts at the end of the heavyindustrial investment programmes.

    The extraordinary result is negative at 847 K and includes netallocations to regulated provisions for 1,051 K including 1,040 Kof special financial amortizations, in accordance with the French CRC

    Accounting Rule no. 2002.10 in force since early 2005. Various net

    products at 191 K have been identified including 120 K for

    capitalisation of the charges, following the recent tax audit.

    The net result after tax for the 2006 financial year is therefore

    negative at 2,808 K against a negative of 4,283 K in 2005, the

    year which included the costs of closing the Messei Site (Orne).

    The self-financing capacity is positive at 1,182 K

    while it wasnegative at 760 K in 2005.

    The total number of staff at 31 December 2006 was 687 people

    including 62 temporary, against 738 in December 2005 including 103

    temporary.

    Management report of the Boardof Directors

  • 7/29/2019 algev ar 2006

    11/7410

    Dold Kaltfliesspressteile GmbH (Germany)

    The turnover for the 2006 financial year amounted to 47,062 K up

    by 3.4% on 2005 (45,507 K).Because of substantial destocking, production for the financial yearamounted to 45.8 M, or a fall of 1.3%.

    Because of having managed operating costs better, the operationalresult shows a net increase and is positive at 1,616 K against aprofit of 910 K in 2005.

    The financial result is negative at 473 K against a negative of631 K in 2005, since the consolidation of financial advances paid forin company capital by the shareholders in February 2006 enable usto reduce the financial charges.

    The extraordinary result is negative at 4 K against a positive of65 K in 2005.

    After tax expenditure of 352 K, the net result shows a profit at787 K against a profit of 330 K shown in 2005, before tax becauseearlier deficits were carried forward.

    The internal financing capability amounted to 3,075 K against2,760 K in 2005, up by 11.4%.

    The total number of staff at 31 December 2006 was 392, including17 apprentices and 2 temporary, against 422 at 31 December 2005,including 18 apprentices and 5 temporary.

    Pumps and fluid technology sector

    The consolidated sales of this Sector amounted to 64.6 M against64.0 M, up by 1%.

    Intangible and tangible investments amounted to 2.3 M against anoverall 3.2 M in 2005.

    PCM

    This Company includes the business of PCM Dosys merged with effectfrom 1st January 2006 through transfer of all assets and liabilities(Transmission Universelle de Patrimoine).

    In 2006 this Companys turnover amounted to 60.1 M (including58.5% achieved through exports) against 55.1 M in 2005, or up by9.2%, recalculated on a like-for-like basis at 0.6%.

    The turnover of the Industrial Department increased by 9.2% on 2005and the Food Industry Department remained stable at 0.6%.

    On the other hand, the turnover of the Energy Department (oil andgas) has suffered a setback because a large export deal was notrenewed in 2006.

    Services, stable at 2.8 M, represent 5% of the overall result.

    The operational result has suffered a setback to 7,734 K from8,660 K. This result derives from the combination of a reduction intrade margins in the food and industry sectors, from effects on ofmargins of the slight fall in oil industry turnover and from theincrease in commercial overheads.

    The financial result is at 1,322 K and includes the merger premiumgained during the merger with PCM Dosys for 1,052 K, dividendspaid by the subsidiaries for 322 K, compensated for by a net charge

    caused by variations in the exchange rate of 242 K.The current result before tax amounts to 9,057 K against 9,720 Kin 2005.

    The extraordinary result is positive at 156 K against a negative of

    2,453 K in 2005, and includes mainly an adjustment in the

    provision for tangible assets (+ 627 K), a net allocation of special

    financial amortizations (- 667 K) an adjustment in the provision for

    human resource risks (+ 295 K) and client penalties (- 60 K).

    After a tax on profits of 2,144 K, and employees profit sharing at

    566 K, the net profit for the financial year amounts to 6,504 K

    (5,452 K excluding the merger bonus), against 4,169 K in 2005.

    The total number of staff at 31 December 2006 is 332 against 313

    (including 30 at Dosys) at 31 December 2005, up by 6.1%.

    Internal financing capability amounted to 6,148 K against 7,555 K

    in 2005.

    It is proposed to pay a dividend of 1,279 K for 2006 (the same as

    2005).

    PCM Group UK Ltd. (Great Britain)

    The turnover of this company amounted to 3,413 KGBP against

    2,900 KGBP in 2005, up by 17.7%, because of the increase in the sale

    of systems for industry and water treatment.

    The net result after Tax for this Company amounts to 281 KGBP

    against 276 KGBP in 2005.

    This stable result is explained by a different product mix from 2005

    and by taking up environmental markets with lower margins.

    For 2006, it is proposed to pay a dividend of 150 KGBP (119 KGBP in

    2005).There were 29 staff at 31 December 2006 against 22 at the end of

    2005.

    PCM Deutschland GmbH (Germany)

    In 2006, the turnover amounted to 2,098 K against 1,923 K in

    2005, up by 9.1%. This increase is essentially due to sales of pumps

    which rose by 25%.

    The net profit is 124 K against 150 K in 2005, a reduction of 17%

    because of the reduction in margins in a very competitive market.

    There were 8 staff at 31 December 2006.

    PCM Flow Technology (United States)This company, a 100% subsidiary of PCM, was created in April 2004,

    and controls 100% of the business of the company PCM USA Inc.. Its

    capital was raised to 3,501,000 USD in 2005.

    PCM USA Inc. (United States)

    Because production of rotors began in autumn 2006 in the USA,

    following industrial investment, the 2006 turnover amounted to

    2,068 KUSD against 1,118 KUSD in 2005.

    The net result is a loss of 336 KUSD; it was negative at 308 KUSD in

    2005.

    There were 6 staff at 31 December 2006.The transfer to this subsidiary of oil rotor production for the North

    America region should bring into balance in 2008.

    2006 ANNUAL REPORT - MANAGEMENT REPORT

    PCM Trading (Shanghai) Co Ltd (China)

    This company, a 100% Subsidiary of PCM, was created in August

    2006. Its aim is to develop PCMs commercial business in the Asia-Pacific area.

    The first invoices are expected towards the end of the first half of2007.

    Kudu Industries Inc. (Canada)

    In December 2006, Kudu Industries bought 50% of the RussianCompany Canaross Ltd, a company which distributes oil and of gas inRussia. Since this date, the Canaross company accounts have beenconsolidated with Kudu Industries Inc.

    The total consolidated turnover of the North America subsidiaries(Canada and Texas), Kazakhstan, Australia, and the new Russiansubsidiary, amounts to 65 MCAD against 50.7 MCAD in 2005, or up by28.2%, due to the dynamic oil markets.

    The net consolidated result of this grouping, on a like-for-like basis,shows a profit of 2.9 MCAD against 2.8 MCAD in 2005. The result isstable because of a reduction in margins, to take account of thecommercial context.

    For 2006, it is proposed to pay an overall dividend of 750 KCADincluding 320.6 KCAD for PCM (214 KCAD in 2005).

    At 31 December 2006, these companies had 180 staff against 153 in2005.

    Ensival Moret Asia Pte Ltd (Singapore)

    This purely financial Company controls 100% of the Moret PumpsShanghai (MPS) manufacturing company (China).

    MPSs turnover is 45,094 KRMB against 34,871 KRMB in 2005, or upby 29.3%. The turnover essentially comes from the business of ourpartner Ensival Moret which is responsible for the increase.

    The net result before tax is positive at 1,943 KRMB against 3,726KRMB in 2005. This deterioration in the result derives from theimpact of the cost of moving the factory which occurred during 2006.

    Because we have held 25.71% since October 2002, the share of theconsolidated result which is due to us amounts to 500 KRMB or 49 K.

    Mechanical Engineering Sector,engine and gas equipmentThe turnover of this sector amounted to 15.9 M, stable comparedwith 2005 (+ 0.4%)

    Industrial investment amounted to 1.3 M against 0.4 M in 2005.Gurtner

    In 2006 net sales amounted to 13,690 K against 13,036 K in 2005,up by 5.0%.

    For the Engine Equipment business, carburettors for the originalequipment market have decreased by 15%; on the other hand, spareparts have shown a strong increase of + 57%. Overall, the EngineEquipment business has increased by 6%.

    For the Gas Equipment business, with a partial merger of Clr intoGurtner Distribution (trader in natural gas) the turnover has increasedby 3.5%.

    The operational result is in profit at 879 K against 695 K in 2005,

    due to a very favourable product mix because of the increase ofturnover in spare parts.

    The high increase in raw materials identified in 2006 has, however,had a strong impact on this result, so that the increased number ofclients has only marginally compensated for this.

    The financial result is highly negative at 713 K and includes

    supplementary depreciation on the Clr shares and loans to Clr,

    making a total of 778 K.

    The current result is therefore positive at 166 K against 497 K in

    2005.

    The extraordinary result is positive at 20 K mainly made up of

    157 K of special financial amortizations under the terms of the new

    Accounting Rules CRC no. 2002.10 and compensated for by carrying

    over the provision for price rises of 158 K.

    The net result, after tax on the profits of 57 K and employee profit

    sharing of 19 K, is in profit at 110 K against 308 K in 2005.

    The total number of staff at 31 December 2006 was 137 against 141

    in December 2005.

    The internal financing capability amounted to 958 K against 735 Kin 2005

    It is proposed to pay a dividend of 412 K for 2006 (same level as the

    previous financial year) taken in part from the balance carried

    forward.

    tablissements Clr

    This company achieved a turnover of 2,991 K in 2006 against

    3,311 K in 2005, a fall of 9.7%.

    The reduction, compared with the 2005 turnover, corresponds to the

    decline in business for GDF (- 380 K), to the impact of the sale of the

    drop forging business (- 100 K) and to the transfer of wholesale

    clients to Gurtner Distribution (-200 K). This reduction is partially

    compensated for by good business with Industrial clients (spin-offs

    from GDF) (+ 300 K).

    The current result is negative at 658 K, due to the repercussions from

    the cost of raw materials (brass) which could not be passed on in full.

    After the negative extraordinary result at 169 K, which mainly

    includes the effects of closing the drop forging business, the effects of

    the overall depreciation of the business assets (85 K) and allocations

    of special financial amortizations (55 K), the net result for the 2006

    financial year remains negative at 831 K against 491 K in 2005.

    The total number of staff at 31 December 2006 was 22 against 32 at

    the end of December 2005.

    Business of the Gvelot GroupConsolidated accounts

    The consolidated turnover for the financial year amounted to

    196.8 M. The consolidated operating income before tax is in profit

    at 6.3 M. After a tax charge on the profits of 1.9 M, the net

    consolidated result amounts to 4.4 M against 5.3 M in 2005.

    Group Investments

    Intangible investments amounted to 1.8 M and tangible

    investments to 14.2 M.

    Employment

    The Group workforce, not including temporary staff, was 1,538people (including 456 outside France), against 1,560 at 31 December

    2005.

    At the end of 2006, Gvelot S.A. employed 9 people.

    Extrusion Sector, Machining

    The budgeted consolidated turnover for this sector could be

    120 M, up by 5.7% on 2006.At the end of March 2007, the turnover amounted to 31.9 M upby 3.8%.

    Business for the early part of the 2007 financial year conforms withthe budget.

    Gvelot Extrusion

    The 2007 turnover for the French industrial sites could be at around74.4 M against 68.8 M in 2006, or up by 8.1%.

    After implementing the restructuring plan in spring 2007 whichincluded on the one hand, various commercial renegotiations toenable margins eroded by runaway industrial costs to be re-established and, on the other hand, economy measures concerned

    with staffing and other costs, the operational result is expected tobe in profit at 1.9 M against a negative result of 1.0 M in 2006.

    The financial result will be negative at 1.1 M against a negativeof 0.9 M in 2006.

    The current result will therefore be positive at 0.8 M against anegative of 1.8 M in 2006.

    After an extraordinary result estimated to be negative at 1.7 Mincluding special financial amortizations for 1.1 M andrestructuring charges of 0.6 M, the net result after tax could benegative at 0.9 M against a loss of 2.8 M in 2006.

    Dold

    Dolds budgeted turnover could be 45.6 M of the same order as in

    2006 (47.1 M).

    The net result, because of increased salary costs, would be lower butstill positive.

    Pumps Sector, Fluid technology

    The budgeted consolidated turnover could be 72 M up by 10.2%on 2006.

    At 31 March 2007, the turnover for this sector amounted to18.1 M, up by 6.3%.

    PCM

    PCMs budgeted turnover, on a like-for-like basis, not including the

    new subsidiary PCM Trading (Shanghai) Asia, could be 64.2 M

    , upby 6.7% (Industrial Department + 4.5%, Food Industry Department+ 6.7%, Ancillary services for the Oil Industry Department (oil andgas) + 8.7%).

    Mechanical Engineering Sector,Engine and gas equipment

    The expected net sales in the 2007 budget could amount to 16 M, upby 1.8%.

    At 31 March 2007, the turnover of this sector amounted to 3.9 M,down by 7%.

    Gurtner

    The net turnover 2007 could amount to 14 M, up by 2.3%.The net result should be close to equilibrium.

    Ets Clr

    The turnover could amount to 2.7 M after transferring a

    substantial part of its business to Gurtner.

    The current result could be negative at around 0.3 M.

    After taking into account the costs associated with closing theBthencourt-sur-Mer site and transferring business to the Pontarliersite, the net result would be negative.

    Information systems and newtechnologiesGvelot Extrusion

    In 2006, Gvelot Extrusion concentrated on developing informationsystems in two areas:

    - In February the new version of the XPPS productionmanagement software was installed. This upgrade enabled us

    to meet the needs of our clients in EDI, particularly with P.S.A.for its Alternative Logistics project.

    - At the end of the year, upgrading the multi-site computerequipment, with both servers and work stations. Thisdevelopment with better links in CITRIX mode has madecommunication between sites more flexible.

    During the year we also investigated and installed our Workflowsystem to help us exchange data especially with Dold. The firstapplication was devoted to managing clients calls for tender andhas been operational since 1st January 2007.

    Since the current application is becoming outdated, the financialdepartment made a preliminary approach to text editors with aview to changing the accounting software. This project for 2008 will

    favour an information system with a strong emphasis on reporting.

    Updating the Computer Systems Master Plan will be a main featureof 2007, as it will direct the selection of computer systems over thecoming years.

    PCM

    As part of the "Perspective 2010" information systems master planwhich will eventually include all the information systems for PCMand its subsidiaries, the plan to replace PCMs accounting system hasbeen successfully completed. All the test stages were completed in2006, and the new application was fully commissioned for the 2007financial year.

    The former subsidiary PCM Dosys was also included in the PCM

    information systems.

    At the same time as these modernisation and internationalisationprojects, commercial and decision-making applications have beeninstalled so that these tools can be used by all PCM subsidiaries.

    All these projects, at the heart of PCMs business, are steered by theInformation Systems Department which ensures the reliability ofsystems and data.

    Because of PCMs international development, the InformationSystems Department upgraded its skills in 2006, in both computersystem security and the Supply Chain.

    Gurtner

    Interfacing databases and information processing common to Gurtnerand Clr after the resumption of the natural gas business in Pontarlierwas the most significant work done on information systems in 2006.

    In addition, the work undertaken during 2006 on the website resultedin a new website going on-line in the first quarter of 2007.

    Social and environmental consequences

    of the businessGvelot S.A., a Company quoted on EUROLIST Compartment C of EuronextParis, is publishing as an appendix to its Management report aconsolidated document relating to sustainable development, bringingtogether social and environmental information, in accordance with theprovisions initially set down in Articles D 148-2 and 148-3 of the Decreeof 23 March 1967, and amended by Decree no. 2002.221 of 20 February2002.

    Risk managementThe following major risks which may be met by the Group have beenidentified.

    General risks

    1. Market RisksThe Group is not exposed to risks encountered in the Financialmarkets.

    2. Country risks

    The Group is exposed to country risks for a small part of its businessmainly in the Ancillary services for the oil industry Sector. However,these risks are not significant.

    Financial risks

    By the nature of its business, the Group is exposed to various kindsof financial risk. These risks are associated with the Groups industrialand commercial businesses, its needs for financing and also to its

    investment policy in particular internationally. The risks are mainlyconnected to variations in the exchange rate and of rate of interestbut also to sudden variations in the price of raw materials.

    1. Risks for the industrial and commercial businesses

    - Risks in exchange rates

    The Gvelot Groups industrial and commercial businesses are notparticularly exposed to financial risks which might result fromvariation in the exchange rates for some currencies because of therelative positions of its sales areas, and its production sites whichare mainly in the euro zone.

    Risk management for exchange rates in the Pumps and FluidTechnology business is based on the fact that the groupsproduction companies invoice the marketing companies in theirlocal currency or in euros. This inter-company invoicing is given

    fixed term exchange risk cover if the amounts are significant.

    Because the Group does not take out any firm exchange risk coveron its future sales, the operational margin is subject to variations inthe future depending on variations in the exchange rate. However,each operation which might present a significant risk for the Group

    2006 ANNUAL REPORT - MANAGEMENT REPORT

  • 7/29/2019 algev ar 2006

    17/7416

    or for a Division is given fixed term exchange risk cover. Analysis

    has not shown future changes in a currency to be sufficiently large

    to make it necessary to use optional exchange risk cover.

    The Groups industrial and commercial businesses are not

    significantly exposed to variations in the rate of interest.

    - Risks of price variations

    The Group is sensitive to variations in the price of its raw materials.

    This is particularly true in the Extrusion Sector, as a supplier to the

    automobile industry. In order to meet future variations which could

    have a significant impact on the operational margin, the Group is

    developing a range of sources of supply and where possible using

    contracts containing clauses covering bracketed price for its

    suppliers and clients.

    - Credit risks

    The Group pays particular attention to the security of payments forgoods and services which it delivers to its clients but in any event

    there is no great concentration of credit risk. Payments from other

    clients of the Group are covered by appropriate security measures.

    2. Risks associated with financing

    The Group uses the banking sector for financing its industrial and

    commercial businesses which find it necessary.

    - Risks of variation in interest rate

    Where necessary the Group uses tools to cover variations in the rate

    of interest for long-term variable rate loans for substantial

    amounts. To do this the Groups centralised Treasurers Department

    analyses the portfolio and proposes the appropriate tools (interest

    rate swaps) in order to keep future risks within the limits ofappropriate controlled costs.

    3. Risks associated with investment

    - Exchange risks

    The Group has investments abroad, and outside the euro zone,

    whose net assets are exposed to currency conversion risks. These

    net assets, mainly situated in the USA, are however for modest

    amounts and are not currently covered.

    Allocation of the resultThe following allocation of results will be proposed:

    - Profit for the financial year 2,171,310.10

    - Previous balance carried forward 1,764,526.04

    - Dividends 2,106,594.60

    2,215,160.10

    Balance carried forward after allocation 1,720,676.04

    If the distribution shown above is approved, a dividend of 2.20 per

    share, which is eligible for the 40% tax allowance given to individualswith a capped Tax Credit, will be distributed after 2 July 2007.

    Note no. 2: Accounting rules and methods -Significant facts for the financial year

    A. ACCOUNTING RULES AND METHODSThe Gvelot Groups consolidated financial statement has been drawnup in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards(IFRS), adopted by the European Union, published in the FrenchOfficial Journal dated 13 October 2003 and which applied from 1st

    January 2005.

    The consolidated financial statement is presented in thousands ofeuros, the form used by the Group for operations and presentation.

    The accounting methods described below have been universallyapplied all the periods presented in the consolidated financialstatement.

    The new standards, amendments and interpretations, whoseadoption was made compulsory for all financial years opened on orafter 1st January 2006, do not apply to Gvelot Group Accounts, orare irrelevant to them. The group has not opted for the amendmentto IAS 19, which enables actuarial gains and losses to be assessed byequity capital. These are:

    Amendments to IAS 39 on the fair value option and covering cashflow for future intra-group transactions,

    Amendment to IAS 21 on the effects of variations in the quotedprice in foreign currencies,

    IFRIC 4 interpretation of the conditions which determine if anagreement contains renting out,

    Standard IFRS 6 relating to the exploration and valuation of mineral

    resources, IFRIC 5 interpretation relating to the rights to interest issued by

    management funds devoted to refunding the costs ofdecommissioning and reinstating sites,

    IFRIC 6 interpretation relating to liabilities resulting from investmentin a specific market waste electrical and electronic equipment.

    The Group has not applied any amendment or any standard orinterpretation in advance, in particular the following texts, alreadypublished and adopted by the European Union, but which do notbecome compulsory until later. The Group does not expect anysignificant effect on its financial statement when these texts areapplied in the future:

    Amendment to the standard IAS 1, covering information to be

    supplied on capital,

    Standard IFRS 7, relating to information to be supplied on financialinstruments,

    IFRIC 7 interpretation relating to comparative information to beproduced under the terms of IAS 29 Financial information inhyperinflationary economies,

    IFRIC 8 interpretation on IFRS 2s field of application,

    IFRIC 9 interpretation relating to the evaluation of embeddedderivatives.

    In addition, the standard IFRS 8 relating to aux operating segmentsand the interpretations IFRIC 10 (depreciation of assets in interimfinancial reporting), IFRIC 11 (options granted within a group and

    own shares acquired to cover a share option plan) and IFRIC 12(franchise contracts) have not yet been adopted by the EuropeanUnion.

    In order to draw up its IFRS opening balance sheet for 1 January 2004,the Group has complied with the provisions of the IFRS 1 standarddealing with First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting

    Standards and the exceptions to the principle of retrospectiveapplication of all the IFRS standards.

    The Gvelot Group has decided on the following options for theretrospective adjustments of assets and des liabilities in accordancewith the IFRS standards:

    companies consolidated before 1st January 2004 are not covered byof retrospective adjustments,

    the actuarial gains and losses on pension commitments have beenidentified in exchange for equity capital for their cumulated amountat 1st January 2004,

    the cumulated amount of conversion rate adjustments at 1stJanuary 2004 has been balanced in exchange for consolidated

    reserves and the amount of hedging equity capital remainsunchanged. Conversion rate adjustments before the changeover dateto IFRS will not, therefore, be taken into account in the results offuture transfer of consolidated entitles or partners.

    the fair value of assets at 1st January 2004 has been kept aspresumed cost. The revaluation arising from this has been shown asequity capital.

    On 13 April 2007, the Board of Directors drew up and authorisedthe publication of Gvelot SAs consolidated financial statementfor the 2006 financial year. This financial statement may beamended as long as it has not been approved by the GeneralMeeting.

    Presentation of the consolidated accounts:

    The balance sheet is shown with current/non-current entries. Currentmeans the assets and liabilities directly associated with the operatingcycle, except for short-term financial assets and liabilities which areclassified as current.

    The consolidated result account is shown by type under Charges andProducts.

    2.1. Accounting principles specific to theconsolidation

    2.1.1 Scope of consolidation

    All the subsidiaries and holdings under the direct or indirect control

    of the Parent Company, or which it exercises an appreciable influenceover, are included in the scope of the consolidation.

    The companies over which the Gvelot Group does not have controlare consolidated on a like-for-like basis, or by total integration in thecase of Companies under joint control.

    2.1.2 Conversion of accounts expressed in foreign currency

    The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are converted intoeuros in the following way:

    - items in the Balance Sheet are converted at the exchange rate inforce on the date the financial year closed,

    - items in the Profit and Loss account are converted at the averagerate,

    - Cash flows are converted at the average rate.Therefore any disparities of conversion in the consolidated Equitycapital arise from:

    CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS - 2006 APPENDIX

  • 7/29/2019 algev ar 2006

    29/7428

    - the variation between the rates at the close of the previousfinancial year and those of the current financial year on the equitycapital at the opening of the year,

    - the difference between average exchange rates and exchange ratesat the close, on the profits or losses over the period and on the flowof variation in equity capital.

    2.1.3 Transactions in foreign currency

    Transactions in foreign currency are converted into euros by applyingthe exchange rate in force at the date of the transaction. The cashassets and liabilities expressed in foreign currency are converted atthe exchange rate in force at the date of closure, and the resultantexchange differences are accounted for in the Profit and Loss accountas a profit or loss in exchange. Non-cash assets and liabilitiesexpressed in foreign currency are accounted for at the historic rate inforce on the date of the transaction.

    Rates of conversion of accounts drawn up in foreign currency:The proportions of results of Companies on a like-for-like basis, KUDUIndustries (a Canadian company) and the Company EMA (Singapore)have been converted at the closing rate on 31 December 2006, i.e:

    - 1 Canadian dollar = 0.65441 euro- 1 Singapore dollar = 0.49500 euro

    Items on the balance sheets of the companies: PCM Flow Technology(an American company) and PCM Group UK Ltd. (an English company)have been converted at the closing rates on 31 December 2006, i.e:

    - 1 dollar US = 0.75930 euro- 1 pound sterling = 1.48920 euro

    and the income and expenditure accounts at the average rates i.e:

    - 1 US dollar = 0.79639 euros- 1 pound sterling = 1.46666 euros

    2.2 Accounting Principles specificto the Balance Sheet

    2.2.1 Company grouping

    The groupings of companies are accounted for according to theacquisition method in accordance with standard IFRS 3.

    On the date of acquisition, goodwills were valued as the surplus ofthe cost of the company grouping over the share of interest of thepurchaser in the net fair value of the identifiable Assets, Liabilitiesand potential Liabilities acquired.

    Goodwills are not amortised. Their depreciation is checked each yearor more often if events or changed circumstances suggest that theyhave depreciated.

    Any depreciation found is then irreversible.

    The depreciation test methods used by the Group are described in theparagraph "Depreciation of Assets" in Note 2.2.4.

    2.2.2 Intangible assets

    Intangible assets acquired separately appear on the balance sheet attheir historic cost. They are then valued at their amortised cost inaccordance with the reference procedure in standard IAS 38.

    Intangible assets resulting from the valuation of the assets of Entitiesacquired are recorded on the balance sheet at their fair value.

    Research costs are entered as charges in the financial year when theywere incurred, as are unspent development costs.

    In the Extrusion Sector, research is undertaken with a view to

    producing items as part of a specific order from a client. When theyare contractually financed by the client, these costs are accounted foras intangible assets up to the amount that was not financed.

    Development costs must be entered as assets (IAS 38) if thecompany can demonstrate:

    - that the project is clearly identified and the costs of the asset thusimmobilised can be separated out and reliably monitored, and that ithas the intention and the technical and financial ability to carry thedevelopment project through,

    - that it is probable that the future economic advantages derivingfrom the expenditure will come to the company.

    Intangible assets are subject to a linear financial amortization over auseful life foreseen for each category of goods.

    Useful life:Development costs: lifetime of the projects themselves, generallybetween 3 and 5 years.

    Software: useful life of software, between 2 and 15 years.

    Others (patents, etc.): over periods that correspond to the expected

    useful life but not more than 20 years.The methods of depreciation tests adopted by the Group aredescribed in the paragraph "Depreciation of fixed assets" in Notepoint 2.2.4.

    2.2.3 Tangible assets

    Tangible assets, mainly composed of land, buildings, technicalinstallations and plant, are accounted for at their cost of acquisitionreduced by cumulative financial amortizations and any loss in value,in accordance with standard IAS 16.

    The Gvelot Group has opted for the method of periodic revaluationof its land and buildings with financial amortizations over their usefullife and periodic revaluation of the nett value against a market valueestimated by qualified professional valuers. These valuations take

    place every three years.In the Extrusion Sector, special tools are bought or made to produceitems for a specific order from the client. When they are contractuallyfinanced by the client, any part of these costs that was not financedis accounted for as tangible assets.

    > Cost price of fixed assets

    The costs of acquiring fixed assets are incorporated at their true grossamount including tax.

    According to the reference procedure in standard IAS 23, the costs ofborrowing are accounted for as charges in the financial year duringwhich they are incurred.

    > Direct financing leases

    Goods which the Group is provided with through a direct financinglease are handled in the balance sheet and the consolidated profitand loss account as if they had been acquired with a loan, if theeffect of the contract is to transfer virtually all the risks andadvantages inherent in the ownership of these goods to the Group.In consequence, the amounts originally financed by the lessor havebeen entered as tangible assets, and matched by a "borrowed" itemin the liabilities.

    Annual instalments of rent are eliminated and replaced by:

    - an allocation to financial amortizations corresponding to the fixedassets concerned,

    - a financial charge relating to the loan.

    Goods under a direct financing lease are amortized at a constant rateover their estimated useful lifetime similarly to other fixed assets of

    the same kind or over the duration of the contract if that is less andif the Company is not certain to become the owner at the completiondate.

    > Amortizations

    Amortizations are calculated on the basis of the components withdistinct useful lives that make up these fixed assets; in general theycorrespond to the following periods:

    - Land: not amortizable,

    - Buildings (structure, alterations, restoration, water-tightness): 10 to40 years,

    - Technical installations, industrial tools and equipment: 3 to 40years, with exceptions,

    - Computer equipment: 3 to 5 years.

    2.2.4 Depreciation of Fixed assets

    In application of standard IAS 36, the Group ensures that the net bookvalue of its assets does not exceed their recoverable value, i.e. theamount which will be recovered by their use or sale.

    Apart from business assets and intangible fixed assets with an

    indefinite life which have to be subjected to regular annualdepreciation tests, the recoverable value of an asset is estimatedwhenever there is an indicator showing that this asset may have lostits value.

    The recoverable value of an asset is either its net sale price or itsutility value, whichever is the greater.

    The net sale price is the amount which can be obtained from the saleof an asset in a transaction under conditions of normal competitionbetween well-informed and consenting parties, minus the costs ofdisposal.

    The utility value is the updated value of future cash flow expectedfrom the continued use of an asset and of disposing of it at the endof its useful life, estimated on the basis of plans or budgetsestablished over 3 years maximum. Beyond this, cash flows are

    extrapolated by applying a constant or diminishing growth rate.Depreciation tests are performed at the level of Cash-GeneratingUnits (CGUs).

    The Group has defined its cash-generating units as follows:

    - Extrusion: each company and each production unit has beenconsidered as an independent CGU. The support assets common toa company have been shared proportionately between theproduction units of the company,

    - Pumps: each company has been considered as an independent CGU,

    - Mechanical Engineering: each company has been considered as anindependent CGU.

    A specific discount rate has been determined for each activity (seenote No. 4).

    These discount rates correspond to the rates before tax of the yieldof investments without risks, corrected by a risk premium from theShares market, and of specific risks related to the activity.

    For the Gvelot Group, no specific risk related to the activity wasidentified.

    A loss of value is accounted for once the book value of the asset orof the CGU it belongs to exceeds its recoverable value.

    2.2.5 Financial assets

    Financial assets consist essentially of Loans and Credits.

    They are mainly composed of deposits and loans to staff formortgages.

    They are valued at the amortized cost, using the staff-interest-ratemethod. Long-term loans and credits that are not repaid or repaid atlower than the market rate are updated if the sums are significant.

    Any depreciation is recorded in the results.

    Financial assets are initially accounted for at a cost corresponding tothe fair value of the price paid, increased by the costs of acquisition.

    Clients and other operating credits

    Client credits are recognised and accounted for for the initial amountof the invoice, minus provision for depreciation and amounts writtenoff as non-recoverable.

    Client credits are retained as assets on the balance sheet so long asall the risks and advantages associated with them have not beentransferred to a third party.

    Provision is made for depreciation if specifics risks of non-paymentappear on credits held by the companies of the Group. However,older credits (over 6 months) not paid can be subject to depreciationon all or part of the credit.

    2.2.6 Stocks and work in progress

    According to standard IAS 2 "Stocks", the cost of stocks must includeall the costs of acquisition, costs of transformation and other costsincurred in making the stocks available; sales discounts, reductionsand other similar elements are deducted in determining the cost ofacquisition.

    Stocks are valued according to the price method or the averageweighted cost.

    Stocks are costed at their lowest manufacturing cost and their netrealisable value.

    The realisable value is equal to the net estimated sale price of thecosts still to be incurred to complete the products and the sale.

    Stocks do not include any cost of borrowing.

    Raw materials, merchandise and other provisions are valuedaccording to one of the following methods, depending on the Site:price of purchasing of the last batch, last known purchase price,average weighted unit cost.

    Manufactured products (in process and completed) are valued attheir production cost including:

    - The cost of materials consumed,

    - Direct production charges,

    - Indirect production charges in so far as they can be reasonablyattributed to the production of the goods.

    If the net realisable value falls below the gross value, provision ismade for the difference.

    In the Extrusion Sector, research is undertaken and special tools arebought or made to produce items for a specific order from the client.

    When they are contractually financed by the client, the costs incurredfor the research and tools are recorded as stocks of work in progressto the extent of the amount financed.

    2.2.7 Cash and cash equivalents

    Cash and cash equivalents include liquid assets and short-terminvestments without risk of change of value.

    2.2.8 Equity capital

    Own Shares: when the Group buys its own shares, they are recordedat their cost of acquisition and the equity capital is diminished. The

    product from any sale of Own Shares is written directly as an increasein equity capital, so that any capital gains or losses, net of the effectof related tax, do not affect the net result of the financial year.

    2.2.9 Provisions

    > Pensions and similar commitments

    On the basis of national laws and practices, there are severaldifferent pension systems in the Group for the benefit of certain staff.

    Retirement schemes, similar compensation and other welfarebenefits which are analysed as Schemes for Defined Services(schemes in which the Group undertakes to guarantee a definedamount or level of service), are accounted for on the balance sheeton the basis of an actuarial valuation of the commitments to the dateof closure, minus the fair value of the assets related to andcommitted to the scheme. The subscriptions paid into the schemeswhich are analysed as Schemes with Defined Subscriptions, (i.e.when the Group has no other obligation than the payment ofsubscriptions) are accounted for in the charges of the financial year.

    In France, the Group has made commitments to its staff regardingretirement. The provision appearing in the consolidated accounts is

    valued using the Projected Unit Credit method and takes account ofthe associated welfare benefits.

    In applying local rules, the German subsidiary Dold faces up to thewelfare commitments that it has made towards its staff as part ofcontracts concluded with insurance companies.

    What is sometimes called "actuarial error or actuarial deviance is themismatch between the hypotheses used and reality, or themodification of hypotheses in calculating commitments and theassets allocated to covering them:

    - rate of staff turnover- rate of salary increase- discount rate- death rate- rate of return on assets

    The variation in actuarial deviances on retirement benefits isaccounted for in the results by applying the Corridor Principle,spreading any variations that exceed 10% of the highest valuebetween the amount of the commitment and the market value ofhedge assets. These gains or losses are recognised over the expectedaverage remaining working life of the members of staff benefitingfrom these schemes.

    Provision is made for the prizes given when the nationalemployment medals are awarded or as part of the Companys ownagreements. The latter are costed by taking account of the probabilitythat the staff reach the length of service required for each level, andare updated.

    > Other provisions

    Provisions are made whenever the Group has a current obligation(legal or implicit) arising from a past event, whose fulfilment shouldresult in an expenditure of resources representing economicadvantages for the Group.

    The provisions correspond to specifically identified risks and charges.Any liabilities correspond to potential obligations resulting from pastevents whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence ofuncertain future events beyond the control of the entity, or to currentobligations for which an expenditure of resources is not probable.

    Apart from those resulting from a Company grouping, they are notaccounted for but information is given on them in an Appendix.

    A provision for restructuring is only accounted for if there is animplicit obligation to a third party, arising from a decision ofManagement which, before the date of closure, was planned in

    detail, formalised and announced to the people concerned.

    Other long term provisions have been updated.

    2.2.10 Financial liabilities

    Borrowings are accounted for at their amortized cost, except for thehedge accounting (see below, Derivatives and hedge accounting).

    Issuing costs, discounts and redemption premiums are shownsubtracted from borrowings and are taken into account indetermining the actual rate of interest.

    > Derivatives and hedge accounting

    All the derivatives (swaps) are accounted for on the balance sheet attheir fair value and any variation in their fair value is accounted for inthe results.

    The Group takes the option offered by standard IAS 39 of applyinghedge accounting:

    - in the case of cover of fair value (borrowing at a fixed rate swappedto a variable rate for example), the debt is accounted for at its fairvalue and any variation in fair value is entered in the results. Thevariation in the fair value of the derivative is also entered in the

    results. If the cover is totally effective, the two effects cancel outexactly.

    - in the case of cash flow cover (borrowing at a variable rateswapped to a fixed rate for example), the variation in the fair valueof the derivative is entered as equity capital for the effective partand entered in the results in parallel to the account of the cash-flowcovered, and in the result for the ineffective part.

    2.2.11 Deferred Taxes

    In accordance with standard IAS 12 Tax on results, deferred taxesare recorded on all the temporary differences between the bookvalues of assets and liabilities, and their assessed values according tothe liability method of tax allocation.

    Future tax relief because of the use of tax losses carried forward is

    only recognised if is can reasonably be expected to occur.At 31 December 2006, deferred tax assets have been retained in theaccounts, because it seemed probable that they would be recouped.

    Deferred tax assets and liabilities, whenever they fall due, have beenoffset when they concern a single tax entity.

    In accordance with standard IAS 12, deferred tax assets and liabilitiesare not updated.

    2.3 Accounting Principles specific to the Profit andLoss account

    2.3.1 Products of ordinary activities

    In accordance with standard IAS 18 "Products of ordinary activities"

    the sale of goods, minus discounts granted, is accounted for asturnover on the date of transfer of ownership which transfers to thepurchaser the economic risks and advantages of the goods. Ingeneral this transfer takes place when the goods are delivered.

    In the Extrusion Sector, research is undertaken and special tools arebought or made to produce items for a specific order from the client.When they are contractually financed by the client, this financingcomes within the scope of Products of ordinary activities as definedby standard IAS 18. The product is recorded as turnover as and whenthe technical stages are confirmed by the client.

    2.3.2 Current operational result and Operating income

    Standard IAS 1 allows for a minimum number of headings:

    - Operating income,

    - Financial expenses,- Proportion of results in the Companies on a like-for-like basis,- Results of activities halted or in process of sale,
