The result of the changes in tax rates (EUR 10.2 million) applies solely to foreign taxes. The enactment of the US tax reform (“Tax Cuts and Jobs Act”) on December 22, 2017, requires recognizing a non-recurring effect from the remeasurement of all deferred tax assets and liabilities in the United States in order to reflect the reduction in the US corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%. On the whole, the US tax reform will have a negative tax effect in the amount of EUR 11.4 million.
