2010 Annual report
Diego Della Valle Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
2010 Annual Report
Letter to our Shareholders

Dear Shareholders, Our Group achieved excellent results once again this year. Sales grew at double digit rates, with excellent results in all our markets and product categories. In an operating context that had improved from 2009 but which had not yet returned to normal, our customers showed increasing appreciation for our products and their extremely high quality.These products are not related to fashion trends, instead representing timeless icons. Revenue growth sustained improved profitability, through our customary focus on costs and a lean production organisation in a perfect marriage of artisanal culture and efficiency. The companys location in the renowned Italian high-quality shoe district helps us recruit highly qualified personnel. Our Group has an extremely solid financial situation: a well-balanced inventory management, customarily high quality receivables, and a solidly positive cash balance. Once again this year, we invested the resources necessary both for opening new boutiques and for continuous updating of the image of existing shops. We introduced the new Tods Home concept at leading Tods brand boutiques: the stores are furnished like a real home, where customers can feel like welcome guests in an extremely friendly environment that best expresses Tods values: quality, tradition and exclusivity. To support brand development, we maintained close attention and adequate investments in research, while we continued to invest in advertising and marketing, with targeted advertising campaigns and special events to promote our Groups made in Italy products. In this regard, we recall the collaboration with Teatro alla Scala and the agreement as sole, exclusive sponsor for financing restoration work on the Coliseum in Rome. From a strictly financial point of view, 2010 was an extremely important year, marking the tenth year of listing.The overall result of this experience has been positive, not only due to the strong appreciation of our stock price from the listing price of 40 euros, but also due to the visibility that listing has given to our company, further reinforcing our dedication to rigour, discipline and managerial skill. In December, our stock was included in the FTSE Mib index, which is comprised of the 40 most representative stocks on the Italian stock exchange, major recognition for the solidity of our Group. We decided on a very interesting dividend for shareholders once again this year, increasing the ordinary dividend by over thirty per cent, in addition to the extraordinary dividend paid in October. The strong and continuous generation of cash leaves the Group with all the resources necessary for continuing its solid growth and expansion on international markets. As always, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to all Group employees, whose commitment is the foundation for our success, and to you shareholders, for your confidence in our company and acceptance of our strategy.We obviously extend our gratitude to all our supporters and loyal customers. Cordially,
Diego Della Valle Chairman of the Board of Directors

TOD'S GROUP IAS/IFRS ANNUAL REPORT AS OF DECEMBER 31ST 2010
REPORT ON OPERATIONS
Group 2010 Annual Report
Introduction
The Report of the Board of Directors on Operations is based on the TODS Group Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31st 2010, prepared in accordance with IAS/IFRS (International Accounting Standards IAS, and International Financial Reporting Standards IFRS) issued by the IASB and approved by the European Union at the same date. IAS/IFRS refers also to all revised International Accounting Standards (IAS) and all interpretative documents issued by the IFRIC (International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee), previously nominated Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC). The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Group can operate as a going concern.The Group believes that there are no asset, liability, financial or organisational indicators of material uncertainties, as defined in paragraph 25 of IAS 1 on business continuity. The Report on Operations must be read together with the Financial Statements and Notes to the Financial Statements, which are an integral part of the 2010 Consolidated Annual Report. The Report on Operations also includes the additional information required by CONSOB, pursuant to the orders issued in implementation of Article 9 of Legislative Decree 38/2005 (Resolutions 15519 and 15520 of July 27th, 2006 and memorandum DEM/6064293 of July 28th 2006), as well as all subsequent notices containing provisions regarding financial disclosures.
Alternative indicators of performances

In order to strip the effects of changes in exchange rates with respect to the average values for the previous year from the results for the 2010 financial year, the typical economic reference indicators (Revenues, EBITDA and EBIT) have been recalculated by applying the average exchange rates for 2009, rendering them fully comparable with those for the previous reference period. Note that on the one hand, these principles for measurement of business performance represent a key to interpretation of results not envisaged in IFRSs, and on the other hand, must not be considered as substitutes for what is set out in those standards.
Groups activity
The TODS Group operates in the luxury sector under its proprietary brands (TODS, HOGAN and FAY) and licensed brands (ROGERVIVIER). It actively creates, produces and distributes shoes, leather goods and accessories, and apparel. The firms mission is to offer global customers top-quality products that satisfy their functional requirements and aspirations. Development of production. The Groups production structure is based on complete control of the production process, from creation of the collections to production and then distribution of the products. This approach is considered key to assuring the prestige of its brands. Shoes and leather goods are produced in Group-owned plants, with partial outsourcing to specialized workshops. All of these outsourcers are located in areas with a strong tradition of shoe and leather good production. This preference reflects the fact that an extremely high standard of professional quality is required to make these items, with a significantly high level of added value contributed to the final product by manual work. The Group relies exclusively on selected specialized outsourcers, which enables it to exploit their respective specializations in crafting the individual products sold as part of the apparel line. Distribution structure. The prestige of the Groups brands and the high degree of specialization necessary to offer the respective products to customers entails distribution through a network of similarly specialized stores. Accordingly, the Group relies principally on three channels: DOS (directly operated stores), franchised retail outlets, and a series of selected, independent multibrand stores. The Groups strategy is focused on development of the DOS and franchising networks, given that these channels offer greater control and more faithful transmission of the individual brands. It is also clear that, in particular
29 Report on operations
market situations, distribution through independent multibrand stores is more efficient. This channel is of key importance to the Group.
Groups brands
The TODS brand is positioned on the luxury market and combines tradition, top quality and modernity. It offers consumers shoes, leather goods, accessories and apparel whose design is exclusive, functional and never ostentatious, interpreting timeless elegance. TODS products embody the high quality of goods Made in Italy that are handcrafted for daily use while offering a sophisticated and elegant look. Certain products, such as the Gommino, the Ballerina and the D-Bag, beloved by celebrities and leaders around the world, have become icons representing a unique and recognisably elegant style for men and women
The HOGAN brand is positioned in the elegant luxury sportswear market, offering consumers contemporary style shoes, leather goods, accessories and apparel with an international vision. HOGAN products, which are distinguished by their innovative character and high quality, have created a unique style, contributing to changes in the fashion habits of consumers who want a functional, comfortable, but also sporty and elegant product for everyday life. HOGAN products are trend-setters in defining an elegant and sporty look. Some of its models are best sellers, such as its Interactive shoes.
This brand offers consumers a line of high-quality apparel that is distinguished by the technical treatment of fabrics, obsession for detail and extreme functionality, combining style and quality with excellence. FAY products can be worn everywhere: from the sports stadium to the office, and from the city to the countryside. In every season, the FAY collection offers innovative, recognisable products for men, women and children.
Organizational structure of the Group

The Groups organisational configuration rotates around TODS S.p.A. that is at the heart of the Groups organisation, its parent company that owns the TODS, HOGAN and FAY brands, holds the licenses to the ROGER VIVIER, and manages the Groups production and distribution.Through a series of sub-holdings, the organisation is rounded out by a series of commercial companies that are delegated complete responsibility for retail distribution through the DOS network. Certain of them, strategically located on international markets, are assigned major roles in product distribution, marketing and promotion, and public relations processes along the value chain, while simultaneously guaranteeing the uniform image that Group brands must have worldwide.
Foreign currency markets

Especially in the first half of the year, FY 2010 was dominated by the steady weakening of the euro against other major global currencies. As compared with the average exchange rates with major currencies for FY 2009, the changes in the Korean won and Japanese yen were particularly significant.

Main events and operations during the period

Purchase of Omotesando building. In November 2010, the Group purchased the building in Tokyo (whose market value was appraised at JPY 7.2 billion, or about 66.3 million euros at the year-end exchange rate). This building has been used entirely by Tods Japan K.K. since 2005, as the headquarters for its administrative offices and location for the most important TODS flagship store in Japan.The purchase was made through acquisition by the Group of the entire share capital of Holpaf B.V., the holding company that constructed the building and owns it. This deal is classifiable as a related party transaction, insofar as Holpaf B.V. was indirectly controlled by Diego Della Valle & C. SAPA, a company belonging to Diego e Andrea Della Valle, and controlled by Diego Della Valle. Ten years after the first direct investment through its own operating organisation, the Japanese market now represents one of the drivers for the Groups strategy to consolidate and develop its business throughout the Asian and South Pacific areas. No longer needing the operating flexibility that characterised the start-up phase of the business, the Group decided to consolidate its presence in the Asia-Pacific region by purchasing the building.The decision was based on an assessment of the prospective purchase on the income and financial position of the company as compared with a property lease arrangement. The buildings distinctive architecture represents an important tool for promoting the visibility of the TODS brand in Japan and on Asian markets. In financial terms, the impact of acquisition of Holpaf B.V. on the Groups cash position was about 22.7 million euros, of which about 2.1 million euros for the transfer of shares and 20.6 million euros for reimbursement by Holpaf B.V. of a shareholder loan made by the previous owner. The impact of the deal on the overall net financial position at December 31st 2010 was about 63.0 million euros. This mainly reflected, aside from the outlays indicated above, the two bonds issued in 2006 by Holpaf B.V. to refinance the original purchase of the land and construction of the building that the Group has taken over.The fair value of the land and building at December 31st 2010 was 41.2 million euros. The impact on 2010 income was immaterial, with the positive effects (stemming from replacement of the lease instalments with depreciation of the building) being limited to just one month (December 2010). Payment of extraordinary dividend. On October 14th 2010, the parent TODS S.p.A. paid out an extraordinary dividend, approved by the Shareholders Meeting held on September 21st 2010, for a total of 107.1 million euros, at the rate of 3.50 euros per share.
This payment, in addition to the ordinary dividend totalling 45.9 million euros resolved by the Shareholders Meeting held to approve the 2009 annual report, was made in consequence of the large amount of cash on hand, but above all the Groups consolidated capacity to manage and generate cash.These conditions allowed it to pay out surplus cash to the shareholders without compromising the Groups equity, financial position and income, or realisation of its growth targets and implementation of planned investments. Development of Chinese market. FY 2010 was a very important year for consolidation of the Groups presence in mainland China, which has recently confirmed its position as a strategic market for the development of business, both by the Group and the entire luxury goods segment. With the five new DOS that opened (including the ROGER VIVIER boutique in Shanghai, the first store opened by this brand in China), the singlebrand network in China totalled 28 retail outlets at December 31st 2010, topped only by the Italian and Japanese networks.
Groups results in 2010

The Group performed outstandingly in FY 2010.The excellent earnings results, all of which grew at double-digit rates, were generated by development processes affecting all business segments and markets where the Group operates. Revenues during the year grew by 74.4 million euros, from 713.1 million euros in 2009 to 787.5 million euros in 2010 (773.8 million euros on a comparable exchange rate basis). Growth as measured by operating margins was even stronger. EBITDA and EBIT totalled 193.1 million euros and 159.9 million euros, respectively (FY 2009: EBITDA 158.7 million euros, EBIT 126.4 million euros). Net profit rose sharply: consolidated net profit was 110.8 million euros, up 28.6% from the 86.1 million euros reported in FY 2009.

Sales went into overdrive in this area as well during Q4 2010 (+65% in Q4 2010, +25% in Q3 2010).The results posted by China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and South Korea were particularly outstanding. On a comparable exchange rate basis, the brand posted growth of 21.6% in FY 2010.
Operating results. Group EBIDTA leapt forward, from 158.7 million EBITDA (Euro mn) euros in FY 2009 to 193.1 million euros in FY 2010, for a change of 34.4 193.1 million euros, or +21.7%. EBITDA amounted to 24.5% of consolidated 186.9 revenues, up 230 basis points from FY 2009, when it was 22.2% of sales. 158.7 On a comparable exchange rate basis, or with application of the average cross rates for the previous year, EBIDTA would be about 186.9 million euros, or 24.1% of sales. Growing revenues had an especially significant impact on profit margins. Sales in FY 2010 were characterised by the significant weight of the like for like component,as well as a qualitative component that was more heavily impacted in 2010 than in 2009 by full-price sales rather than promotional sales, and by FY 10 FY 10 FY 09 the revenues realised on higher-profit markets (especially Asia).The impact of comp. ex. rates basis the product mix is also positive, being tied to growth in the contribution made to overall sales by leather goods, which guarantees higher profits than shoes. Industrial margins were also positively impacted by high production efficiency, resulting from the streamlining of industrial processes. On the contrary, lease and rental expenses, personnel expense, and marketing and communication expenses were up slightly, rising steadily during the year in support of continuous sales growth. The expense during the period for leases and rentals (leases for use of locations outside Italy, and royalties for use of licenses) totalled 58.7 million euros, for a change of 7.3 million euros from 2009 (when it was 51.4 million euros). The percentage of these costs in terms of revenues thus rose from 7.2% in 2009 to 7.5% in 2010. Aside from the changes in foreign exchange rates compared with the previous year (less than approximately 2 million euros on a comparable exchange rate basis), the incremental costs were mainly due to the new opening of DOS in 2010 and the growth in the variable component of leases and rents tied to sales performance, resulting from the steep rise in revenues in Asia.
The change in personnel costs is related principally to the increase in headcount.Wages and salaries totalled 117.8 million euros, compared with 107.3 million euros in the previous year, for an increase of 10.5 million euros in absolute terms. This cost is equal to 15.0% of Group revenues (15.1% in 2009.At December 31st 2010, the Group had 3,194 employees, 354 more than at December 31st 2009 (2,840 employees at that date). Most of the employees who were newly hired during 2010 were used to build up the Groups production organisation and operate new retail outlets. Depreciation costs were substantially the same as in the previous financial year. Amortisation, depreciation and impairment for FY 2010 totalled 32.1 million euros, as compared with 31.0 million euros in 2009. At December 31st 2010, amortisation and depreciation equalled 4.1% of Group revenues, as compared with 4.4% in the previous year.

Net financial position and cash flow. The Groups net financial position at December 31st 2010 was 96.5 million euros, reflecting a change of 80.7 million euros from December 31st 2009 (177.2 million). Cash and cash equivalents of 171.7 million euros (which totalled 204 million euros at December 31st 2009) are set off against liabilities of 75.2 million euros (26.8 million euros at December 31st 2009).These liabilities include 41.2 million euros (about JPY 4.5 billion for the face value of the bonds that were granted) as the aggregate fair value (short and long-term) of the non-convertible bonds that the Group took over through acquisition of the controlling interest in Holpaf B.V.The latter company is owner of the Tokyo property where the Groups Japanese subsidiary has its head office.Those bonds had been issued by Holpaf B.V. to obtain the financial resources necessary for purchasing the property and remodelling the building. The overall impact of the acquisition on the Groups net financial position at December 31st 2010 was about 63.0 million euros.This amount includes not only the financial assets and liabilities contributed by Holpaf, but also the acquisition value of company shares (2.1 million euros) and 20.6 million euros for full repayment to the former shareholders for the loan they had made prior to the acquisition. In FY 2010, cash was also heavily impacted by the previously mentioned payment by the parent company to stockholders of an extraordinary dividend of 107.1 million euros, by drawing on available equity reserves, in addition to the 45.9 million euros paid upon approval of the 2009 annual report.

Investments grew during FY 2010, totalling 29.8 million euros (with disinvestments totalling 0.5 million), net of the property asset acquired in Tokyo, as compared with 19.3 million euros in 2009.The total net investment of short-term cash resources for purchase of the Tokyo property impacted FY 2010 cash flow by 25.4 million euros. Net of dividend payments (totalling 153 million euros) and the effects of the property deal on the short-term net financial position, the total amount of liquidity generated by cash flow in FY 2010 would be 133.8 million euros, compared with 141.1 million euros in 2009 (gross of dividends paid that year).
Research and development

Given the particular nature of the Groups production, research and development activity consists of continuous technical/stylistic revision of models and constant improvement of the materials used to realise the product. Since this activity is exclusively ordinary, the associated costs are charged entirely to income in the year that they are incurred, and thus recognised as normal production costs. Research and development costs, as defined above, have assumed major importance due to operating realisation of projects connected with expansion of the existing product line with new types of merchandise that complement current ones. These will increase the number of brands offered and stimulate increased sales to end customers.

Corporate Governance
The Corporate Governance system. The corporate governance system of the parent company TODS S.p.A. is based on the traditional system, or Latin model.The corporate bodies are: the Shareholders Meeting, which has the prerogative of resolving at its ordinary and extraordinary meetings on the matters reserved to it by law or the articles of association; the Board of Directors, which is vested with full, unlimited authority for ordinary and extraordinary management of the Company, with the right to perform all those acts that it deems appropriate to implement and realise the corporate purpose, excluding only those reserved by law to the Shareholders Meeting;
the Board of Statutory Auditors, which is delegated by law to monitor i) compliance with the law, memorandum of association and compliance with the principles of proper management; ii) the adequacy of the organisational structure for matters falling under its purview, its internal control system and administrative and accounting system, as well as the adequacy of the latter in fairly reporting operating performance; iii) the adequacy of directives issued to TODS Group companies in regard to the information that they must provide in compliance with disclosure obligations; iv) the procedures for effective implementation of the corporate governance rules set out in the Corporate Governance Code adopted by the Group; Legislative Decree 39/2010 delegates the Board of Statutory Auditors the task of monitoring the process of financial disclosure and the effectiveness of the risk control and management systems, as well as independent audits and certification of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts, and the independence of the accounting firm retained to do so; the Manager in charge of preparing the company financial documents. The Board of Directors has set up several internal committees: the Executive Committee, the Internal Control and Corporate Governance Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Independent Directors Committee. The adopted corporate governance model is substantially based on the Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies, in its latest version as prepared by the Corporate Governance Committee for Listed Companies (sponsored by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. and comprised by representatives from several of the leading Italian companies and experts in this area), whose principles have been implemented by TODS S.p.A. with a series of Board of Directors resolutions since November 2006, as well as the reference models represented by international best practice. In implementation of the Related Party Transactions Regulation adopted by CONSOB with Resolution no. 17221 of March 12th 2010, as amended by Resolution no. 17389 of June 23rd 2010,TODS S.p.A. modified (by extending them to all Group companies) its existing procedures governing the transparency and substantive fairness of related party transactions, to bring them in line with the principles set out in the cited CONSOB Regulation. It consequently appointed an Independent Directors Committee.This committee is delegated the role and relevant duties assigned by the Regulation to the committee comprised only of independent directors (modifications to the procedure for related party transactions; examination and issuance of binding opinions on the most significant transactions; the Internal Control and Corporate Governance Committee is instead delegated with responsibility for examination and issuance of non-binding opinions on less significant transactions).
Disclosure pursuant to Article 123-bis of Legislative Decree 58/1998 (TUF). At its meeting on March 14th
2011, the Board of Directors of the parent company TODS S.p.A. approved the annual Report on Corporate Governance and Shareholdings, which provides the disclosures mandated pursuant to Article 123-bis (1) of the Consolidated Law on Finance (T.U.F.).That report also analytically illustrates the corporate governance system of TODS S.p.A., and it includes not only the information required under Article 123-bis (2) T.U.F., but also a comprehensive examination of the status of implementation of the corporate governance principles recommended by the Corporate Governance Code in accordance with the comply or explain rule. The Report also satisfies the requirements imposed by CONSOB pursuant to Article 114(5) T.U.F. with notice DEM/11012984 of February 24th 2011, in regard to the remuneration, self-evaluation and succession plans of the Board of Directors. The reader is referred to the Annual Corporate Governance Report, which is available to the public together with this Report on Operations and accounting documentation. It may be consulted in the corporate section of the www.todsgroup.com website.
Significant events occurring after the end of the year

On January 21st 2011, the parent company TODS S.p.A. reached an agreement with the Italian Ministry of Cultural Affairs (Ministero per i Beni e le attivit culturali) and the Rome Special Fine Arts Service for Archaeological
Monuments (Soprintendenza speciale per i beni archeologici di Roma), for the purpose of financing restoration work on the Colosseum as sole and exclusive sponsor. The agreement calls for the sponsor to put up a total, all-inclusive amount of 25 million euros, to be disbursed over several years according to the actual progress of restoration work approved by the delegated Commissioner and the Fine Arts Service.
Business outlook
FY 2010 ended on a high note in terms of revenues, profit margins and profitability, with growth steadily accelerating over the course of the year. Sales and financial figures have confirmed that consumers appreciate the high quality products offered by the Groups brands. By being fairly unsusceptible to seasonal changes, they guarantee a status that goes beyond fashion. In regard to business forecasts for the current year, the Spring-Summer 2011 collection sales campaign results and the excellent sales trends suggested by distribution network figures for the beginning of the current season reasonably allow us to expect superb results again in 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES
1.
General notes
The Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with IAS/IFRS and supplemented by the additional information required by CONSOB and the orders it issued in implementation of Article 9 of Legislative Decree 38/2005 (Resolutions 15519 and 15520 of July 27th 2006 and memorandum DEM/6064293 of July 28th 2006, pursuant to Article 114(5) of the Consolidated Law on Finance-TUF), Article 78 of the Issuer Regulation, the EC document of November 2003 and, when applicable, the Italian Civil Code. Consistently with the financial statements for the previous year, certain information is provided in the Report by the Board of Directors on Operations. The consolidated financial statements at December 31st 2010 include the balance sheet and profit and loss account of TODS S.p.A. and its Italian and foreign subsidiaries, which are jointly referred to as the TODS Group. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis of draft Financial Statements at December 31st 2010 (January 1st - December 31st) approved by the respective boards of directors or, if there was no board of directors, by the sole directors. Because the closing date of its fiscal year does not coincide with the reference date of the consolidated financial statements,Tods India Retail Pte. Ltd was included on the basis of interim financial statements for twelve months, referring to the date of the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors ofTODS S.p.A. on March 14th 2011.
2.
Financial statements formats: choice of form and classification principles
For presentation of its operating income, assets and liabilities following transition to IFRS, the Group opted in favor of complete continuity of the balance sheet and profit and loss account formats envisaged for disclosures prepared pursuant to Italian GAAP in the presentation of its financial position. These financial statements, complemented as necessary by the Report of the Board of Directors on Operations and the notes to the financial statements, are considered to be those that provide the best organized representation of the Groups financial position and income. More specifically, the balance sheet format shows current items separately from non-current items (both assets and liabilities). On the profit and loss account, the format of representing revenues and costs by nature is followed, indicating the EBITDA and EBIT results as in the past, since they are considered representative indicators of company performance.The indirect method is used for the statement of cash flows.
3.
Highlights of the accounting principles
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS/IFRS (International Accounting Standards-IAS, and International Financial Reporting Standards-IFRS) issued by the IASB, on the basis of the text published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU). Furthermore, they are prepared on the basis of historic costs, with the sole exception of derivative financial instruments, which are measured at fair value.
Accounting principles, amendments, interpretations applicable since January 1st 2010 and not relevant for the Group
The following accounting standards are applicable since 1st January 2010 and refer to situations or cases that were not applied to TODS Group Financial Statements of the year ending at December 31st 2010: IFRS 3 (2008) - Business combinations.The updated version of IFRS 3 introduced major changes, principally in regard to: the regulations governing incremental acquisitions of subsidiaries; the option of fair value measurement of any third party interests acquired in a partial acquisition; the charging to income of all costs connected with the business combination and recognition at the acquisition date of the liabilities for conditional payments. IAS 27 (2008) - Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements.The changes to IAS 27 principally concern the accounting treatment of transactions or events that modify equity interests in subsidiaries and the allocation of losses by the subsidiary to minority interests.
52 Supplementary notes
The following amendments, interpretations are also applicable since January 1st 2010 and refer to situations or cases that were not applied to TODS Group Financial Statements of the year ending at December 31st 2010: Improvement to IFRS 5 - Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. Amendments to IAS 28 - Investments in Associates and to IAS 31 - Interests in Joint Ventures consequential to the amendment to IAS 27. Improvements to IAS/IFRS (2009). Amendment to IFRS 2 - Share based Payment: Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions. IFRIC 17 - Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners. IFRIC 18 - Transfers of Assets from Customers. Amendment to IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement: Eligible Hedged items. 3.1 Subsidiaries. Subsidiaries include all entities in which theTODS Group has direct or indirect control over the financial and operating policies of an entity in order to obtain benefits from its activity, as defined in IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included on the consolidated financial statements from the date when control is acquired until such control terminates. Acquisitions of subsidiaries are recognized according to the cost method.The cost of a business combination is represented by the aggregate sum, at the acquisition date, of the fair values of the sold assets, the liabilities incurred or assumed, and the instruments representing capital issued in exchange for control of the acquired entity. The identifiable assets, liabilities, and potential liabilities of the acquired entity that satisfy the recognition criteria envisaged in IFRS 3 are recognised at their fair value on the date of purchase, with the exception of non-current assets (or groups available to sale) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5. The portion of the acquisition cost that exceeds the fair value of the acquired net assets is recognised as goodwill. If the acquisition cost is less than the fair value of the net assets of the acquired entity, the difference is recognised directly on the profit and loss account. Once control of an entity has been acquired, the transactions where the controlling entity acquires or transfers additional non-controlling interests without altering control over the subsidiary are transactions with shareholders and are thus recognised in equity. Subsidiaries are consolidated according to the line-by-line method from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated starting on the date when such control ceases. Intercompany transactions and the profits and losses generated by transactions between consolidated enterprises are eliminated from both the balance sheet and the profit and loss account. When necessary, the balance sheets and profit and loss accounts of the subsidiaries are adjusted in order to bring the applied accounting policies in line with those used by the Group. 3.2 Minority interests. Minority interests in the capital and reserves of the subsidiaries are indicated under shareholders equity as Minority interest.The minority interest in the acquired business is initially determined in an amount equal to their share of the fair value of the assets, liabilities, and potential liabilities recorded on the date of the original acquisition date and subsequently adjusted according to the changes in shareholders equity. Likewise, this account reflects the changes in minority interests and any losses allocable to them. 3.3 Transactions in foreign currency. i. Functional and reporting currency. All accounts recognised on the financial statements of the subsidiaries are measured by using the currency of the principal economic environment in which the entity operates (i.e. its functional currency). The Consolidated Financial Statements are stated in euro (rounded to the nearest thousand), since this is the currency in which most Group transactions are executed.
ii. Transactions in foreign currency. The financial statements of the individual Group entities are prepared in the functional currency of each individual enterprise. When the individual financial statements are prepared, the foreign currency transactions of Group enterprises are translated into the functional currency (currency of the prevalent
economic area in which each entity operates) by applying the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the date of the financial statements are translated by using the exchange rate in effect at the closing date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are valued at their historic cost in foreign currency and translated by using the exchange rate in effect at the transaction date. The foreign exchange differences arising upon settlement of these transactions or translation of cash assets and liabilities are recognized on the profit and loss account, with the exception of those deriving from derivative financial instruments qualified as hedging of financial flows. In fact, these differences are recognized as a separate component of shareholders equity or on the profit and loss account.
iii. Presentation of financial statements drafted in foreign currency. In order to present the financial
statements of consolidated entities that are expressed in a functional currency different from the consolidation currency, the balance sheet items are translated using the exchange rates in effect at the end of the period, while items on the profit and loss account are translated using the average exchange rate for the period. The difference between the result for the period resulting from translation at the average exchange rates and the result of translation at the end of period rates, on the one hand, and the impact on assets and liabilities of changes in the exchange rate relationships between the beginning and end of the period, on the other hand, are recognized under shareholders equity in a special Translation reserve. The translation differences recognized under shareholders equity are transferred to the profit and loss account at the time of disposal or liquidation of the controlled entity. The rates applied to translation, compared with those used in the previous year, are indicated in the following table:
Year 2010 Exch. rates as Average of year end exch. rate 0.748 0.755 1.162 1.166 0.800 0.725 9.629 9.721 0.920 0.862 3.598 3.634 0.583 0.554 6.671 6.531 9.345 9.444 11.335 11.158 1.673 1.653 0.720 0.726 Year 2009 Exch. rates as Average of year end exch. rate 0.694 0.720 1.126 1.123 0.674 0.662 8.9518 9.2855 0.751 0.770 3.698 3.571 0.495 0.495 5.9989 5.6471 8.697 9.018 10.168 10.536 1.492 1.487 0.724 0.749

3.4 Derivative financial instruments. The TODS Group uses derivate financial instruments (mainly currency futures contracts) to hedge the risks stemming from foreign exchange exposure deriving from its operating activity, without any speculative or trading purposes, and consistently with the strategic policies of centralized cash management dictated by the Board of Directors. When derivative transactions refer to a risk connected with the variability of forecast transaction cash flow, they are recognized according to the rules for cash flow hedge until the transaction is recorded on the books. Subsequently, the derivatives are treated in accordance with fair value hedge rules, insofar as they can be qualified as instruments for hedging changes in the value of assets or liabilities carried on the balance sheet. The hedge accounting method is used at every financial statement closing date. This method envisages posting derivatives on the balance sheet at their fair value. Posting of the changes in fair value varies according to the type of hedging at the valuation date: for derivatives that hedge forecast transactions (i.e. cash flow hedge), the changes are recognized in shareholders equity, while the portion for the ineffective amount is recognized on the profit and loss account, under financial income and expenses;
for derivatives that hedge receivables and payables recognized on the balance sheet (i.e. fair value hedge), the fair value differences are recognized entirely on the profit and loss account, adjusting operating margins. Furthermore, the value of the hedged item (receivables/payables) is adjusted for the change in value attributable to the hedged risk, using the item financial income and expenses as a contra-entry.
i.
3.5 Intangible fixed assets Goodwill. All business combinations are recognized by applying the acquisition method. Goodwill represents the portion of the cost paid for the acquisition that exceeds the Groups interest in the fair value of the assets, liabilities, and identifiable potential liabilities of the subsidiary or jointly controlled entity at the acquisition date. If the Groups interest in the fair value of assets, liabilities, and identifiable potential liabilities exceeds the cost of the acquisition (negative goodwill) after redetermination of these values, the excess is immediately recognized on the profit and loss account. For acquisitions prior to January 1st 2004, the date of transition to IAS/IFRS, goodwill retained the values recognized on the basis of the previous Italian GAAP, net of accumulated amortization up to the transition date. Goodwill is recognized on the financial statements at its cost adjusted for impairment losses. It is not subject to amortization, but the adequacy of the values is annually subjected to the impairment test, in accordance with the rules set forth in the section Impairment losses.
Trademarks. These are recognized according to the value of their cost and/or acquisition, net of accumulated amortization at the date of transition to IAS/IFRS.TODS, HOGAN and FAY trademarks are classified as intangible fixed assets with an indefinite useful life and thus are not amortized, insofar as: they play a primary role in the Groups strategy and are an essential driver thereof; the corporate structure, construed as organized property, plant, and equipment, and organization itself in a figurative sense, is closely correlated with and dependent on dissemination and development of the trademarks on the markets; the trademarks are proprietary, properly registered, and constantly protected pursuant to law, with options for renewal of legal protection, upon expiration of the registration periods, that are not burdensome, easily implemented, and without external impediments; the products sold by the Group with these trademarks are not subject to particular technological obsolescence, which is characteristic of the luxury market in which the Group operates; on the contrary, they are consistently perceived by the market as being innovative in the national and/or international context characteristic of each trademark, they are distinguished by market positioning and notoriety that ensures their dominance of the respective market segments, being constantly associated and compared with benchmark brands; in the relative competitive context, it can be affirmed that the investments made for maintenance of the trademarks are proportionately modest with respect to the large forecast cash flows. The adequacy of the values is annually subjected to the impairment test, in accordance with the rules set forth in the section Impairment losses.
ii.
iii. Research and development costs. The research costs for a project are charged fully to the profit and loss account of the period in which they are incurred. The development costs of an activity are instead capitalized if the technical and commercial feasibility of the relative activity and economic return on the investment are certain and definite, and the Group has the intention and resources necessary to complete the development. The capitalized costs include the costs for materials, labor, and an adequate portion of overhead costs. They are recognized at cost, net of accumulated amortization and depreciation (see below) and impairment losses. iv. Other intangible fixed assets. These are identifiable non-monetary intangible assets under the control of the company and capable of causing the Group to realize future economic benefits.
They are initially recognized at their purchase cost, including expenses that are directly attributable to them during preparation of the asset for its intended purpose or production, if the conditions for capitalization of expenses incurred for internally generated expenses are satisfied. The cost method is used for determining the value reported on subsequent statements, which entails posting the asset at its cost net of accumulated amortization and write-downs for impairment losses.
v. Subsequent capitalization. The costs incurred for these intangible fixed assets after purchase are capitalized only to the extent that they increase the future economic benefits of the specific asset they refer to. All the other costs are charged to the profit and loss account in the fiscal year in which they are incurred. vi. Amortization. Intangible fixed assets (excluding those with an indefinite useful life) are amortized on a straightline basis over the period of their estimated useful life, starting from the time the assets are available for use.
3.6 Tangible assets.

i. Property, plant, and equipment owned by the company. They are first recognized at their purchase cost or at the cost recalculated at the date of transition to IFRS, including any directly attributable ancillary expenses. Following first-time recognition, these assets are reported net of their accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (i.e. in accordance with the cost model). For those assets whose depreciation must be calculated using the component approach, the portions of cost allocable to the individual significant components characterized by a different useful life are determined. In this case, the value of land and buildings is kept separate, with only buildings being depreciated.
ii. Leasing. Lease agreements in which the Group assumes all the risks and benefits deriving from ownership of the asset are classified as finance leasing.The assets (real estate, plant, and machinery) possessed pursuant to these agreements are recorded under property, plant, and equipment at the lesser of their fair value on the date the agreement was made, and the current value of the minimum payments owed for leasing, net of accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses (according to the rules described in the section Impairment losses). A financial payable for the same amount is recognized instead under liabilities, while the component of interest expenses for finance leasing payments is reported on the profit and loss account according to the effective interest method. iii. Subsequent capitalizations. The costs incurred for property, plant, and equipment after purchase are
capitalized only to the extent that they increase the future economic benefits of the asset. All the other costs are charged to the profit and loss account in the fiscal year in which they are incurred.
iv. Real estate investments. Real estate investments are originally recognized at cost, and then recognized at
their cost as adjusted for accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated on a systematic, straight-line basis according to the estimated useful life of the buildings.
v. Depreciation. Property, plant, and equipment were systematically depreciated at a steady rate according to the depreciation schedules defined on the basis of their estimated useful life. Land is not depreciated. The principal depreciation rates applied are as follows:
% depreciation 2.5-3% 12.5% 25% 25% 12% 20% 20%-25%
Industrial buildings Machinery and plant Equipments Forms and punches, clichs, molds and stamp Furniture and furnishings Office machines Cars and transport vehicles
The costs for leasehold improvements, which mainly include the costs incurred for set up and modernization of the DOS network and all the other real estate that is not owned but used by the Group (and thus instrumental to its activity) are depreciated according to the term of the lease agreement or the useful life of the asset, if this is shorter. 3.7 Impairment losses. In the presence of indicators, events, or changes in circumstances that presume the existence of impairment losses, IAS 36 envisages subjecting intangible fixed assets and property, plant and equipment to the impairment test in order to assure that assets with a value higher than the recoverable value are not recognized on the financial statements.This test is performed at least once annually for non-current assets with an indefinite life in the same way as that used for non-current assets that have not yet been placed in service. Confirmation of the recoverability of the values recognized on the balance sheet is obtained by comparing the book value at the reference date and the fair value net of sale costs (if available) or usage value. The usage value of a tangible or intangible fixed asset is determined according to the estimated future financial flows expected from the asset, as actualized through use of a discount rate net of taxes, which reflects the current market value of the current value of the cash and risks related to Groups activity, as well as the cash flows deriving from disposal of the asset at the end of its useful life. If it is not possible to estimate an independent financial flow for an individual asset, the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs and with which it is possible to associate future cash flows that can be objectively determined and independent from those generated by other operating units is identified. Identification of the cash generating units was carried out consistently with the organizational and operating architecture of the Group. If the impairment test reveals an impairment loss for an asset, its book value is reduced to the recoverable value by posting a charge on the profit and loss account, unless the asset is revalued. In that case, the write-down is recognized in the revaluation reserve. When the reasons for a write-down cease to exist, the book value of the asset (or the cash generating unit), with the exception of goodwill, is increased to the new value resulting from the estimate of its recoverable value, but not beyond the net book value that the asset would have had if the impairment loss had not been charged. The restored value is recognized immediately on the profit and loss account, unless the asset is revalued, in which case the restored value is recognized in the revaluation reserve. 3.8 Current assets. i. Financial assets. These are recognized and cancelled on the balance sheet according to the trading date and are initially valued at cost, including costs directly connected with the purchase. At the subsequent financial statement dates, the financial assets that the Group intends and is able to hold until maturity (securities held until maturity) are recognized at the cost amortized according to the effective interest method, net of impairment losses. Financial assets other than those held until maturity are classified as held for trading or available for sale, and are recognized at their fair value at the end of each period. When the financial assets are held for trading, the profits and losses deriving from changes in the fair value are recognized on the profit and loss account for the period. In the case of financial assets available for sale, the profits and losses deriving from changes in the fair value are recognized directly in shareholders equity until they are sold or have sustained a loss in value. At that time, the aggregate profits or losses that were previously recognized in shareholders equity are recognized on the profit and loss account of the period.
ii. Inventories. These are recognized at the lower of purchase cost and their assumed disposal value.The net disposal value represents the best estimate of the net sales price that can be realized through ordinary business processes, net of any production costs not yet incurred and direct sales costs. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average cost method. The production cost is determined by including all costs that are directly allocable to the products, regarding for work in progress and/or semi-finished products the specific stage of the process that has been reached. The values that are thus obtained do not differ appreciably from the current production costs referring to the same classes of assets.
A special depreciation reserve is set aside for the portion of inventories that are no longer considered economically useable, or with a presumed disposal value that is less than the cost recognized on the financial statements.
iii. Trade receivables and other receivables. These are valued and recognized on a prudent basis according
to their presumed disposal value, by means of adjusting the face value with a specific allowance for doubtful accounts determined as follows: receivables under litigation, with certain and precise evidence documenting the impossibility of collecting them, have been analytically identified and then written down; for other bad debts, prudent allowances for write-downs have been set aside, estimated on the basis of information updated at the date of this document.
iv. Cash. This includes cash on hand, bank demand deposits, and financial investments with a maturity of no more
than three months. These assets are highly liquid, easily convertible into cash, and subject to a negligible risk of change in value.
v. Assets held for sale. Non-current assets are classified as held for sale when their carrying value will be
recovered through disposal rather than through continuous use thereof. They are not amortised or depreciated and are recognised at the lesser of their carrying and fair value, net of sales costs. 3.9 Benefits for employees.
i. Defined contribution plans. The payments for eventual defined contribution plans are charged to the profit and loss account in the period that they are owed. ii. Defined benefit plans. For defined benefit plans, the cost of the provided benefits is determined by using the
projected unit credit method, carrying out actuarial valuations at the end of every fiscal year. The accumulated actuarial profits and losses not recognized at the beginning of the fiscal year are recognized only to the extent that they exceed 10% of the greater between the current volume of defined benefit plan liabilities of the Group and the fair value of the assets of the program at that date. The cost of past work services is recognized immediately in the amount in which the benefits have already accrued or is otherwise amortized at a constant rate by the average period in which it is expected that the benefits will accrue. The liabilities for benefits paid out after termination of the employment relationship reported on the financial statements represent the current value of liabilities for defined benefit plans adjusted to take into account the actuarial profits and losses that were not recognized and the costs for past work services that were not recognized, and reduced by the fair value of the program assets. Any net assets resulting from this calculation are limited to the value of the unreported actuarial losses and the cost for the past work services that were not recognized, plus the current value of any reimbursements and reductions in the future contributions to the plan.
iii. Share based payments. The payments based on shares are assessed at their fair value on the assignment date. This value is recognized on the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis throughout the period of accrual of the rights. This allocation is made on the basis of a management estimate of the stock options that will actually accrue in favor of vested employees, considering the conditions for use thereof not based on their market value. The fair value is determined by using the binomial method. The useful life utilized in the model has been adjusted according to an estimate by management in order to take into account the effects of non-transferability of the options, restrictions on exercise thereof, and the assumed behavior of individuals.
3.10 Payables.
Bank overdrafts and financing. Interest-bearing financing and bank overdrafts are recognized on the basis of the amounts collected, net of transaction costs, and subsequently valued at the amortized cost, using the effective interest method. i. ii. Trade payables and other payables. These are their face value.
3.11 Revenues recognition. Revenues are recognized on the profit and loss account when the significant risks and benefits connected with ownership of the transferred assets are transferred to the buyer. In reference to the principal types realized by the Group, revenues are recognized on the basis of the following principles: i. Sales of goods - retail. The Group operates in the retail channel through its DOS network. Revenues are recognised when the goods are delivered to customers. Sales are usually collected in the form of cash or through credit cards.
ii. Sales of goods - wholesale. The Group distributes products on the wholesale market. These revenues are
recognised when the goods are shipped and considering the estimated effects of returns at the end of the year.
iii. Provision of services. This income is recognised in proportion to the percentage of completion for the
service provided on the reference date.

iv. Royalties. These are recognised on the financial statements according to the principle of period allocation.
3.12 Financial income and expenses. These include all financial items recognized on the profit and loss account for the period, including interest expenses accrued on financial payables calculated by using the effective interest method (mainly current account overdrafts, medium-long term financing), foreign exchange gains and losses, gains and losses on derivative financial instruments (according to the previously defined accounting principles), received dividends, the portion of interest expenses deriving from accounting treatment of assets held under finance leasing (IAS 17) and employee reserves (IAS 19). Interest income and expenses are recognized on the profit and loss account for the period in which they are realized/incurred, with the exception of capitalized expenses. Dividend income contributes to the result for the period in which the Group accrues the right to receive the payment. 3.13 Income taxes. The income taxes for the period include determination both of current taxes and deferred taxes. They are recognized entirely on the profit and loss account and included in the result for the period, unless they are generated by transactions recognized directly to shareholders equity during the current or another period. In this case, the relative deferred tax liabilities are also recognized under shareholders equity. Current taxes on taxable income for the period represent the tax burden determined by using the tax rates in effect at the reference date, and any adjustments to the tax payables calculated during previous periods. Deferred tax liabilities refer to the temporary differences between the book values of assets and liabilities on the balance sheets of consolidated companies and the associated values relevant for determination of taxable income. The tax liability of all temporary taxable differences, with the exception of liabilities deriving from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, at the time of the transaction, does not influence either the income (loss) reported on the financial statements or taxable income (tax loss). Deferred tax assets that derive from temporary deductible differences are recognized on the financial statements only to the extent that it is likely taxable income will be realized for which the temporary deductible difference can be used. No allocation is envisaged if the deferred tax asset derives from business combinations, or from the initial posting of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, at the time of the transaction, does not influence either the income (loss) reported on the financial statements or taxable income (tax loss). The tax benefits resulting from tax losses are recognised on the financial statements in the period when those benefits are accrued, if it is likely that the Groups entity which recognised the tax loss will have sufficient taxable income before the right to use that benefit expires.The taxes in question (deferred tax assets and liabilities) are determined on the basis of a forecast of the assumed percentage weight of the taxes on the income of the fiscal years in which the taxes will occur, taking into account the specific nature of taxability and deductibility. The effect of change in tax rates is recognized on the profit and loss account of the fiscal year in which this change takes place.
3.14 Provisions. These are certain or probable liabilities that have not been determined at the date they occurred and in the amount of the economic resources to be used for fulfilling the obligation, but which can nonetheless be reliably estimated. They are recognized on the balance sheet in the event of an existing obligation resulting from a past event, and it is likely that the Group will be asked to satisfy the obligation. If the effect is significant, and the date of the presumed discharge of the obligation can be estimated with sufficient reliability, the provisions are recognized on the balance sheet by actualizing future financial flows. The provisions that can be reasonably expected to be discharged twelve months after the reference date are classified on the financial statements under non-current liabilities. Instead, the provisions for which the use of resources capable of generating economic benefits is expected to take place in less than twelve months after the reference date are recognized as current liabilities. 3.15 Share capital. Share capital. The total value of shares issued by the parent company is recognized entirely under shareholders equity, as they are the instruments representing its capital.
Treasury stock. The consideration paid for buy-back of share capital (treasury stock), including the expenses directly related to the transaction, is subtracted from shareholders equity. In particular, the par value of the shares reduces the share capital, while the excess value is recognized as an adjustment to additional paid-in capital.
i.
ii.
iii. Dividends. The allocation of dividends to persons possessing instruments representing share capital after
the reference date of the financial statement is not recognized under financial liabilities on the same reference date. 3.16 Statement of cash flow. The statement of cash flows is drafted using the indirect method. The net financial flows of operating activity are determined by adjusting the result for the period of the effects deriving from change to net operating working capital, non-monetary items, and all the other effects connected with investment and financing activities. Cash at the beginning and end of the period represents the net-short-term financial position of the Group.
4.
Segment reporting
The search for higher levels of operating efficiency has identified as key element for maximising profitability via the condivision of a significant portion of service activities (first and foremost production), both at the central and peripheral levels; on the contrary, aggressive segmentation of the business appears uneconomical, under current circumstances. At the operating level, the Groups organisation is based on an articulated matrix structure according to the different functions/activities in the value chain, alternatively according to brand, product, channel and geographical area.The overall organisation envisages a unified strategic vision of the business. This type of organisation is reflected in the ways in which management monitors and strategically focuses the Groups activities. The Report of the Board of Directors includes operating information, including a breakdown of consolidated revenues by BRAND, CHANNEL, PRODUCT and REGION, and INCOME STATEMENT for the business. Complete information is provided as follows.

The item land and buildings consists primarily of the values of the buildings and land on which the parent company operating headquarters stand, the Omotesando building in Tokyo (to which the 66,267 thousand euros increase during the year is attributable), which is used by the parent company TODS Japan K.K. as its administrative head office and as the location for the most important TODS flagship store in Japan.The Group purchased the building in November 2010 through acquisition of the entire share capital of Holpaf B.V. (note 13).
11. Impairment losses

The recoverability of the residual value of assets with an indefinite and definite useful life, as well as property, plant and equipment, was determined to ensure that assets with a value higher than the recoverable value were not recognised on the financial statements, which refers to their value in use. The criterion used to determine value in use is based on the provisions of IAS 36, and is based on the current value of expected future cash flows (Discounted cash-flow analysis - DCF), which is presumed to derive from the continual use and disposal of an asset at the end of its useful life, discounted at a net interest rate that reflects current market rates for borrowing money and the specific risk associated with the individual cash generating unit. In application of the method prescribed by IAS 36, the TODS Group has identified the cash generating units (CGU) that represent the smallest, identifiable group of assets that can generate cash flows and which are fully independent on the consolidated financial statements. The organisational structure and type of business was considered in determining the CGU. The TODS Group subsequently identified the directly operated stores (DOS) as CGU.The impairment test was then carried out at the following levels: First level.The CGU identified at this level are represented by the individual DOS.The assets that may be exactly allocated to each DOS were tested. Second level.A single CGU at the level of the TODS Group was identified at this level, and the Groups assets as a whole were tested.This approach is based on the unified view of the business (also see IFRS 8 - Operating Segments, paragraph 4), organised as a matrix structure, which may be alternatively broken down by brand, product, channel and region, according to the different functions/activities on the value chain, where the transverse nature of many central and peripheral service activities (especially the supply chain, sales and distribution, finance and administration, legal, human resources and information technology), ensure maximisation of the levels of profitability. The recoverability of the amounts recognised on the financial statements was verified by comparing the net book value attributed to the CGU with the recoverable value (value in use). The value in use is represented by the discounted value of future cash flows that are expected from continuous use of the assets associated with the cash generating unit and by the terminal value attributable to them (the latter is applied only to the second level CGU). The discounted cash flow analysis was carried out by using the FY 2011 budget as its basis. That budget was prepared and approved by the Board of Directors of the parent company TODS S.p.A. on the assumption that the Group would be a going concern for the foreseeable future.The Board of Directors first assessed the methods and assumptions used in developing the model. In particular: i. The medium term projection of budget figures for FY 2011 was carried out on a time horizon limited to the foreseeable future, using an average rate of sales growth of 5%, a constant EBITDA margin and a constant tax rate of 33%.These prudent assumptions represent trends that are lower than the historic (including recent) trend of the Group. Consequently, the budget projections comply with the prescriptions of IAS 36. ii. The terminal value was determined as disposal value. In regard to strategic assets (brands), it was prepared according to the royalties method, using the same prudent growth rate used to extrapolate budget data (5%) for future projections, as well as the rates of return on brand positioned at the lower end of the market for licenses. iii. To determine the value in use, a WACC, net of taxes, of 8.84% was used (the WACC rate used at December 31st 2009 was 8.6%), determined by referring to the discounting rates used by a series of international analysts in financial reports on the Group. The analyses performed on the recoverability of Groups assets (including 137.2 million euros represented by proprietary brands and 11.8 million euros in goodwill from business combinations) showed that there was a
positive difference between the value of forecast cash flows and the aggregate amount of assets (cover), exceeding 1 billion euros. Moreover, the analysis carried out at the level of individual cash generating units (DOS) did nt revealed indicators of impairment for each of the cash generating units (DOS). The sensitivity analysis performed on the impairment test in accordance with IAS 36, in order to reveal the effects produced on the value in use by a reasonable change in the basic assumptions (WACC, growth rates, EBITDA margin) and determination of the terminal value (perpetual annuity), did not reveal an appreciable impact on determination of the value in use and cover. Given the significant value assumed by the cover, it would be necessary to make unrealistic base assumptions to render the value in use equal to the book value of Group assets (the breakeven hypothesis).

No changes in the fair value of this investment, about 250 thousand euros, have been recognised since this previous financial year.This estimate is based on the market prices for similar properties in terms of location and condition.
13. Equity investments

On November 26th 2010 (the closing date) the Group acquired 100% of the shares of Holpaf B.V., a Dutch company with head office in Amsterdam. This deal is classifiable as a related party transaction, insofar as Holpaf B.V. was indirectly controlled, through Goral Investment Holding B.V., by Diego DellaValle & C. SAPA, a company belonging to Diego and Andrea Della Valle, and controlled by Diego Della Valle (also see note 24). Holpaf B.V. owns a property (land and building) in the Shibuya district of Tokyo, on one of the most prestigious and heavily trafficked streets of the quarter popularly known as Omotesando.TODS Japan K.K. has used this building on an exclusive basis since 2005, pursuant to a lease agreement made on February 22nd 2005 with Holpaf B.V.The building houses the administrative offices of TODS Japan and also serves as the location for the most important TODS flagship store in Japan. The price for sale of the company shares was agreed in the total amount of JPY 230 million, about Euros 2.1 million at the exchange rate in effect on the closing date (JPY 110.92/EUR 1).This figure was based on the value of the pro-forma net equity of Holpaf B.V. at September 30th 2010, while also considering the Japanese tax liability for the higher market value of the property as opposed to its cost recognised for tax purposes, and adjustment of the price according to the differences between the net financial position of the acquired company at the closing date and the pro-forma net financial position at September 30th 2010. The transaction does not represent a business combination for accounting purposes.Therefore, as indicated in IFRS 3, the individual assets (principally comprised by the real property) and the individual liabilities that were acquired (substantially represented by bonds) have initially been recognised at their fair value, in accordance with the reference accounting standards (IAS 16, IAS 32 and IAS 39).
The following table illustrates the principal effects of the financial position of Holpaf B.V. on the Groups consolidated assets and liabilities at December 31st 2010:
Euro mn Operating working capital Tangible fixed assets (Land and Building) Other non-current assets (liabilities) Capital invested Bonded loan - long term Net used cash flow Cash Bonded loan - short term Cash Impact on Equity (0.6) 66.3 (2.6) 63.0 (37.6) 25.4 2.2 (3.6) (1.4) 24.0
There was no material impact on income for the year, insofar as the acquisition was completed only on November 26th 2010. At the same time it acquired the share capital, the Group fully repaid a shareholder loan for 20.6 million euros, which had been granted by the previous owner before the acquisition, in accordance with the sale and purchase agreement signed by the parties. For a complete analysis of the transaction, please see the Disclosure drafted in compliance with the rules set out in the new Annex 3 of the Related Parties Regulation no. 17221/2010, which is also available on the corporate website www.todsgroup.com.

The mortgage loan is a long-term floating rate loan contracted by the parent TODS S.p.A.The financial liabilities indicated as Notes A-1 and A-2 represent two amortised, non-convertible fixed-rate bonds denominated in yen, issued in 2006 by the subsidiary Holpaf B.V. to refinance the debt assumed for purchase of the land and construction of the building in Omotesando, which the Group took over following acquisition of the entire share capital of Holpaf B.V. (also see notes 13 and 24).The two bonds were fully subscribed by banks, and specifically by Intesa San Paolo (Notes A-1) and Socit Europenne de Banque (Notes A-2). The debt referred to at Notes A-1 and A-2 includes the residual debt for principal (Note A-1: 7,078 thousand euros, and Note A-2: 31,925 thousand euros) and the interest accrued for the year, 80 thousand euros and 914 thousand euros, respectively, and the effect of fair value measurement upon initial recognition, for 75 thousand euros and 1,060 thousand euros, respectively. For an analysis of the guarantees securing the two bonds, please see the section Provisions, contingent liabilities and assets (note 22).

18. Derivative financial instruments

The TODS Group, characterised by its major presence on international markets, is exposed to exchange rate risk principally for revenues denominated in currencies other than the euro (see Note 19). In order to realise the objectives envisaged in the risk management policy adopted by the Group, derivative contracts were made for every single foreign currency to hedge a specific percentage of revenue (and cost) volumes expected in the individual currencies other than the functional currency. At each reporting date, the hedge accounting method is applied. This requires recognition of the derivatives in equity at their fair value and recognition of the changes in fair value, which varies according to the type of hedge at the valuation date. At the closing date of the financial statements, the notional amount of the currency futures agreements (sale and purchase) entered into by the Group are summarized as follows:
(Currency 000s) Notional in currency 24,000 407,000 1,552,000 6,150 13,300 10,300 12,050 1,780 Sale Notional in euro 17,961 39,189 14,284 7,145 10,637 6,011 12,050 1,336 108,613 Notional in currency 141,000 Purchase Notional in euro 13,576
US dollar Hong Kong dollar Japanese Yen British pound Swiss franc Singapor dollar Euro Canadian dollar Total
6,388 6,388 19,964
At the same date, the net fair value of foreign currency hedges was negative for 249 thousand euros, including assets for 2,084 thousand euros (FY 2009: 594 thousand euros) and liabilities for 2,333 thousand euros (FY 2009: 693 thousand euros).The net fair value of foreign currency hedges that were earmarked for cash flow hedges was 469 thousand euros (liability) at December 31st 2010.Against the contracts for these last hedges, which were closed between January and December 2010, 2,190 thousand euros in hedge derivatives were transferred to the profit and loss account, including 1,935 thousand euros recognised as a reduction in revenues and 255 thousand as an increase in costs.
19. Hedging of financial risks (IFRS 7)

The TODS Group has implemented a system for monitoring its financial risks in accordance with the guidelines set out in the Corporate Governance Code of Listed Companies. As part of this policy, the Group constantly monitors the financial risks connected with its operations, in order to assess their potential negative impact and undertake appropriate action to mitigate them. The following analysis of risks faced by the TODS Group highlights the Groups level of exposure. It also includes a sensitivity analysis designed to quantify the potential impact of hypothetical fluctuations in benchmark parameters on final results.
i. Credit risk
Credit risk represents the exposure of the TODS Group to potential losses stemming from failure to discharge its obligations towards trading counterparties. Groups revenues are fairly broken down between revenues generated by the directly operated store network (51%) and non-captive sales to third parties (49%).The Group subjects these revenues to a hedging policy designed to streamline credit management and reduction in the associated risk. In particular, the Groups policy does not envisage granting credit to customers, with periodic analyses of the creditworthiness of all customers, both long-standing and potential ones, in order to monitor and prevent possible solvency crises. The following table illustrates the ageing of trade receivables outstanding at December 31st 2010:
In euro 000s From third parties Current 83,254 0>60 29,125 Overdue 60>120 6,827 Over 3,510 Total 122,716
The prudent estimate of losses on the entire credit mass existing at December 31st 2010 was 3.2 million euros.
ii. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not dispose of the funds necessary to meet its short-term commitments and financial requirements.The principal factors that determine the Groups degree of liquidity are the resources generated or used by operating and investment activities and, on the other hand, the due dates or renewal dates of its payables or the liquidity of its financial investments and market conditions. In the specific case, the Groups profitability, and its current and historic capacity to generate cash and its relatively insignificant exposure to the banking system are factors that lead to the conclusion that it faces no liquidity risk over the foreseeable future. Also at December 31st 2010 financial resources were far higher than the Groups debt exposure: net financial position was 96.5 million euros, comprised by 171.7 million euros in assets and 75.2 million euros in liabilities, including 42.8 million euros in medium-long term liabilities. Moreover, the outstanding debt exposure at December 31st 2010 was heavily impacted by the payment of an extraordinary dividend of 107.1 million euros (note 5) and the previously mentioned acquisition of Holpaf B.V. (notes 13 and 24). The Groups policy for financial assets is to keep all of its available liquidity invested in demand bank deposits without recourse to financial instruments, even on the money market, and dividing the deposits amongst a reasonable number of bank counterparties, prudently selecting them according to the return on deposits and their solidity.
iii. Market risk
IFRS 7 includes in this category all risks that are directly or indirectly connected with the fluctuation in prices on physical and financial markets to which the company is exposed: exchange rate risk; interest rate risk; commodity risk, connected with the volatility of prices for the raw materials used in the production process.
The TODS Group is exposed to exchange rate and interest rate risk, since there is no physical market subject to actual fluctuations in the purchase prices for raw materials used in the production process. The following paragraphs analyse the individual risks, using sensitivity analysis as necessary to highlight the potential risk on final results stemming from hypothetical fluctuations in benchmark parameters.As envisaged by IFRS 7, these analyses are based on simplified scenarios applied to the final results for the periods referred to. By their very nature, they cannot be considered indicators of the actual effects of future changes in benchmark parameters of a different asset and liability structure and financial position different market conditions, nor can they reflect the interrelations and complexity of the reference markets. Exchange rate risk. Due to its commercial operations, the Group is exposed to fluctuations in the exchange rates for currencies in which some of its commercial transactions are denominated (particularly USD, GBP, CHF and those of certain countries in the Far East), against a cost structure that is concentrated principally in the eurozone.The TODS Group realises greater revenues than costs in all these currencies; therefore, changes in the exchange rate between the euro and the aforementioned currencies can impact the Groups results. With the exception of the foregoing, the Group is not particularly exposed to foreign exchange risk.The residual component of this risk is connected principally with translation risk.This risk stems from the fact that the assets and liabilities of consolidated companies whose functional currency is different from the euro can have different countervalues in euros according to changes in foreign exchange rates. The measured amount of this risk is recognised in the translation reserve in equity. The Group monitors the changes in the exposure. No hedges of this risk existed at the reporting date. Governance of individual foreign currency operations by the Groups subsidiaries is highly simplified by the fact that they are wholly owned by the parent company. The Groups risk management policy aims to ensure that the average countervalue in euros of receipts on wholesale transactions denominated in foreign currencies for each collection (Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter) is equal to or greater than what would be obtained by applying the pre-set target exchange rates.The Group pursues these aims by entering into forward contracts for each individual currency to hedge a specific percentage of the expected revenue (and cost) volumes in the individual currencies other than the functional currency. These positions are not hedged for speculative or trading purposes, consistently with the strategic policies adopted for prudent management of cash flows. Consequently, the Group might forego opportunities to realise certain gains, but it avoids running the risks of speculation. The Group defines its exchange risk a priori according to the reference period budget for the reference period and then gradually hedges this risk upon acquisition of orders, in the amount according to which they correspond to budget forecasts. The process of hedging exchange rate risk inside the Group is broken down into a series of activities that can be grouped into the following distinct phases: definition of operating limits; identification and quantification of exposure; implementation of hedges; monitoring of positions and alert procedures. The breakdown of forward currency contracts (for sale and purchase) made by the Group is illustrated in Note 18. The balance sheet accounts denominated in foreign currency were identified for the sensitivity analysis. In order to determine the potential impact on final results, the potential affects of fluctuations in the exchange rate for the euro against the principal currencies to which the Group is exposed were analysed.The following table illustrates the sensitivity to reasonably likely changes in exchange rates on pre-tax profit (due to changes in the value of current assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency) and Group equity (due to changes in the fair value of foreign exchange risk hedge instruments) while holding all other variables constant:
Euro Currency CAD CHF GBP HKD JPY KRW RMB SGD USD EUR Other Total Euro 000s FY 2010 Country Canada Switzerland UK Hong Kong Japan South Korea China Singapore USA Europe n.a.
Impact on pre-tax profit 5% writedown of the foreign currency FY 2010 FY 2009 (7,012.2) (2,241.7) (1,110.2) (21,482.0) 3,564.9 6,237.5 (20,123.1) (9,563.9) (34,580.5) (14,718.8) 2,887.9 5,127.9 57,167.5 24,797.4 6,877.0 (27,787.6) (347,645.6) (309,861.5) (39,484.3) 5,859.2 (12,143.4) 4,004.3 (391,601.8) (339,629.3) Revaluation/Writedown foreign currency 5% -5%
Impact on pre-tax profit 5% revaluation of the foreign currency FY 2010 FY 2009 7,750.3 2,477.7 1,226.8 23,743.2 (3,940.2) (6,894.1) 22,241.3 10,570.7 38,220.5 16,268.2 (3,191.9) (5,667.7) (63,185.1) (27,407.6) (7,600.9) 30,712.6 384,239.9 342,478.5 43,640.5 (6,475.9) 13,421.6 (4,425.8) 432,823.0 375,379.8 Impact on pre-tax profit 432.8 (391.6) Impact on Shareholders equity (4,146.6) 2,416.9
The analysis did not include assets, liabilities and future commercial flows that were not hedged, since fluctuations in exchange rates impact income in an amount equal to what is recognised in the fair value of adopted hedge instruments. Interest rate risk. The exposure of the TODS Group to interest rate risk is limited to its own adjustable rate debt instruments, issued in the eurozone. Interest rate risk is hedged consistently with consolidated practice, which is designed to reduce the risks of interest rate volatility by simultaneously pursuing the aim of minimising associated financial expenses. Considering the insignificant amounts involved (Note 17), there were no current interest rate hedges current at December 31st, 2010. The sensitivity analysis carried out on interest rates has shown that a hypothetically unfavourable change of 10% in short-term interest rates applicable to the adjustable rate financial liabilities existing at December 31st 2010 would have a net pre-tax impact of about 56 thousand euros in additional expenses (FY 2009: 58 thousand euros). Finally, the financial liabilities (Notes A1 and A2) assumed in 2010 following the acquisition of Holpaf B.V. (notes 13 and 24) are subject to a fixed rate of 2.94% and 3.239%, respectively, which were consistent with applicable market rates.
iv. Categories of measurement at fair value
In accordance with IFRS 7, the financial instruments carried at fair value have been classified according to a hierarchy of levels that reflects the materiality of the inputs used to estimate their fair value.The following levels have been defined: Level 1 quoted prices obtained on an active market for the measured assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs other than the quoted prices indicated hereinabove, which are observable either directly (prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) on the market; Level 3 inputs that are not based on observable market data. The fair value of derivative financial instruments existing at December 31st 2010 (Note 18) has been classified as Level 2.
20. Deferred tax assets and liabilities

At the reporting date, recognition of the effects of deferred tax assets, determined on the basis of temporary differences between the pre-tax result on the financial statements and taxable income of consolidated subsidiaries, lead to the following tax assets and liabilities:
Euro 000s Deferred tax assets Deferred tax liabilities Net balance 12.31.10 32,027 (27,722) 4,305 12.31.09 22,472 (22,369) 103 Change 9,555 (5,353) 4,202
When determining future tax impact (IAS 12), reference was made to the presumed percentage weight of the taxes that will be imposed on income in the years when those taxes will be charged, according to current tax laws in the various countries involved and any changes in tax rates following currently known tax reforms, and that will be applicable starting from FY 2011. In this regard, no significant changes have been reported as at today by the tax departments in the countries where the Group operates. Following is reported the composition of the amount of deferred tax assets and liabilities at year end, highlighting items that mainly contributed to its determination:
Euro 000s Amortization, depreciation and write-downs Provisions Property, plant and equipment (leasing) Cost deductible over several years Inventory (internal profits and write-downs) Tax losses that can be carried forward Derivative financial instruments Other Total 12.31.10 Assets Liabilities 6,415 22,182 3,841 44 12.31.09 Assets Liabilities 5,694 17,291 3,997 710 9,501 5,634 187 746 22,472

246 1,409 27,722
93 988 22,369
Deferred tax assets, recognised by certain subsidiaries as losses that can be carried forward pursuant to local tax laws, and not yet used by the Group at December 31st 2010, totalled 7,999 thousand euros (FY 2009: 5,634 thousand euros). New deferred tax assets of 1.9 million euros were recognised on the 2010 financial statements for losses that can be carried forward.
21. Other current liabilities

Tax payables at December 31st 2010 include 16.5 million euros for the payable (net of prepayments and of receivables that can be offset upon payment) to institutions in the various countries where the Group operates and accrued on FY 2010 income (FY 2009: 0.4 million euros). Other includes advances from customers of 4.2 million euros, and 3.5 million euros for the variable portion of the compensation of parent company directors accrued in 2010 (note 24).
22. Provisions and potential liabilities and assets

22.1 Provisions. They include 1,369 thousand euros (825 thousand euros in 2009) as the prudent estimate of liabilities that the Group might incur if it loses a series of pending lawsuits. Accruals for the year totalled 673 thousand euros. 22.2 Potential liabilities and other commitments. i. Guarantees granted to third parties. At December 31st 2010, the Group granted a total of 2,295 thousand euros in guarantees (FY 2009: 1,925 thousand euros) to secure the contractual commitments of certain subsidiaries.
ii. Guarantees received from third parties. Guarantees received by the TODS Group from banks as security for contractual commitments totalled 12,706 thousand euros (11,843 thousand euros in 2009). Mortgages. Group real estate has been encumbered by the following mortgages:
iii.
Production plant at SantElpidio a Mare Referring to the loan obtained by the parent company (note 17), first mortgage in favour of the lending bank Unicredit, recognised for 30 million euros, as collateral for the lent principal and all expenses resulting from the loan agreement; Tokyo building As collateral for two bonds issued by the subsidiary Holpaf B.V. (note 17), a first mortgage in favour of Intesa San Paolo for JPY 1,000 million (9.2 million euros), and a first mortgage in favour of Socit Europenne de Banque for JPY 5,652.8 million (52.0 million euros), both as collateral for the principal and all expenses resulting from the loan agreement.
iv. Other guarantees. As additional security for repayment of the bonds indicated at sub-indent iii. b) hereinabove, the parent company TODS S.p.A. (when taking over the contractual obligations assumed by the previous guarantor, Holpaf B.V., vis--vis the subscribing banks), issued the following additional guarantees: a) Property Purchase Option: a put option granted to Intesa San Paolo on the Omotesando property, which may be exercised only if Holpaf B.V. defaults during the term of the bonds and the creditor demands payment of the mortgage. In this scenario,TODS S.p.A. must purchase the property at a specific price that varies over the term of the option (decreasing price, equal to the amount of the residual debt of the two bonds not repaid by Holpaf B.V. at the time of default). b) Earthquake Indemnity Letter; TODS S.p.A. has undertaken to hold harmless the rights to repayment of the bonds held by Intesa San Paolo and Socit Europenne de Banque even in the event of damage or destruction of the property in an earthquake; c) All Risks Indemnity Letter;TODS S.p.A. has undertaken to hold harmless the rights to repayment of the bonds held by Intesa San Paolo and Socit Europenne de Banque even in the event of damage or destruction of the property due to any event. At December 31st 2010, the residual face value of the principal for the two bonds amounted to JPY 4,238 million (39.0 million euros).
22.3 Derivative financial instruments. During the year, the Group used derivative financial instruments to hedge transactions in currencies other than the euro. For an analysis of this detail, see Note 18. All derivative contracts made with leading financial institutions will expire in 2011.
22.4 Lease agreements. The leases entered into by the Group are for rental of spaces used as offices, production plants, and DOS. At the reporting date, the rents still owed by the Group under current agreements were as follows:

23.1 Defined contribution plans. The Group has a defined contribution retirement plan (employee severance indemnities TFR) in favour of employees at Groups Italian companies with more than 50 employees (see the following section in this regard) and the Japanese and Korean subsidiaries. At December 31st 2010, the liability accrued vis--vis employees was 2,195 thousand euros (December 31st 2009: 1,477 thousand euros), and relating only to the two Asian companies, since the amounts accrued in favour of Italian employees have all been transferred to funds outside the Group.The amount charged to profit and loss for the period totals 586 thousand euros. 23.2 Defined benefit plans. Following the statutory amendments introduced beginning January 1st 2007, employee severance indemnities, a deferred payment plan in favour of all employees of the Groups Italian companies, were classified as a defined benefits plan (IAS 19) only for firms with less than 50 employees, for which the Groups obligation does not terminate with payment of the contributions accrued on the paid compensation, but extends until the end of the employment relationship (1). For these types of plans, the principle requires that the accrued amount be projected into the future in order to determine the amount to be paid upon termination of the employment relationship, with an actuarial assessment that accounts for the rate of rotation of employees, expected evolution of compensation, and other factors:
Euro 000s Year 10 Initial balance Current benefits Financial expenses Benefits paid Final balance 9,483 119 372 (750) 9,224 Year 09 9,562 173 440 (692) 9,483
(1) The statutory amendment envisaged that for firms with more than 50 employees, the employee severance indemnities accrued from January 1st 2007 had to be allocated to supplemental retirement plans (pension funds) or, alternatively, to aTreasury Fund set up at the INPS (Italian National Social Security Institute). Since all obligations of firms towards their employees ceased starting on January 1st 2007 , all accrued employee severance indemnities are covered by the rules governing defined contribution plans.
24. Transactions with related parties

In implementation of the Related Party Transactions Regulation adopted by CONSOB with Resolution no. 17221 of March 12th 2010, as amended by Resolution no. 17389 of June 23rd 2010, the TODS Group modified its existing procedures governing the transparency and substantive fairness of related party transactions, to bring them in line with the principles set out in the cited CONSOB Regulation. (The complete text of the Related Party Transactions Procedure of TODS S.p.A. can be found at www.todsgroup.com). The new related parties procedure was approved after receiving the favourable opinion of independent directors by the Board of Directors of the parent company on November 11th 2010 and came into force on January 1st 2011. However, in accordance with its own tradition of applying best practices on the market, before the new regulation issued by CONSOB came into force, the Group always subjected significant related party transactions to detailed investigation and, inter alia, the a priori favourable opinion of the Internal Control and Corporate Governance Committee (the committee that performed the relevant functions before the new regulation came into force). Consequently, significant related party transactions were previously subjected, and shall continue to be subjected in future, to a detailed investigation involving, inter alia: (i) a complete, prompt transmission of material information to the delegated Board of Directors committees (the Internal Control and Corporate Governance Committee and beginning January 1st 2011 the Independent Directors Committee, each within the ambit of their delegated responsibilities, where the majority or all members of these committees are independent directors), who in the performance of their functions also avail themselves of the assistance of independent experts; (ii) the issuance of an opinion (either binding or non-binding, as applicable) before approval of the transaction by the Board of Directors (or, if appropriate, by the body delegated to resolve on the transaction). Without prejudice to the principles of procedural fairness cited hereinabove, no unusual related party transactions, or other related party transactions that might compromise corporate assets or the completeness and fairness of Group accounting and other information were executed during the financial year.All transactions which are connected with the normal operations of TODS Group companies were executed solely on behalf of the Group by applying contractual conditions consistent with those that can theoretically be obtained on an arms length basis. Most significant transactions concluded during the period As previously described in note 13,TODS S.p.A. acquired the entire share capital of HOLPAF B.V. from Goral Investment Holding B.V., a Dutch company fully owned by Diego Della Valle & C. SAPA (a company owned by Diego and Andrea Della Valle, and controlled by Diego Della Valle) on November 25th 2010, after approval by the Board of Directors of TODS S.p.A., and after issuance of a favourable opinion by the Internal Control and Corporate Governance Committee (already in line with the CONSOB regulation that would enter into force on January 1st 2011, as previously mentioned). Through acquisition of the shareholding, the TODS Group acquired ownership of the Omotesando building (the companys sole asset).This building has been used entirely by the Group since 2005 under a lease agreement made on February 22nd 2005 by Tods Japan K.K. with HOLPAF B.V., as the seat for administrative offices and location for the most important flagship store of the TODS Group in Japan. The total price paid for acquisition of 100% of the shares of HOLPAF B.V. was JPY 230 million (equal to 2.1 million euros), considering the value of the pro-forma equity of the target company at September 30th 2010, the Japanese tax liability for the higher market value of the property as compared with its recognised tax cost, and the adjustment for differences between the net financial position of the acquired company at the closing date and its pro-forma net financial position at September 30th 2010.Pursuant to the agreement, the Group also fully repaid Goral Investment Holding B.V. for the shareholder loan previously made to HOLPAF B.V., in the amount of 20.6 million euros (principal and interest accrued at the share transfer date). For complete information about the transaction, please see the Disclosure drafted in compliance with the rules set out in the new Annex 3 of the Related Parties Regulation no. 17221/2010, which is also available on the corporate website www.todsgroup.com.
Developments of related party transactions pending at December 31st 2009 In continuation of contractual relationships already existing in 2009, the TODS Group continued to maintain a series of contractual relationship with related parties (directors/controlling or significant shareholders) in 2010. The principal object of the transactions was the sale of products, lease of sales spaces, show rooms and offices, use of the ROGER VIVIER brand license and the provision of advertising services.

Alternative indicators of performances

In order to strip the effects of changes in exchange rates with respect to the average values for the previous year from the results for the 2010 financial year, the typical economic reference indicators (Revenues, EBITDA and EBIT) have been recalculated by applying the average exchange rates for 2009, rendering them fully comparable with those for the previous reference period. Note that on the one hand, these principles for measurement of business performance represent a key to interpretation of results not envisaged in IFRSs, and on the other hand, must not be considered as substitutes for what is set out in those standards.
Operating performances
In line with expectations, the company performed outstandingly in FY 2010, both in sales and margins results. Sales revenues are equal to 577.0 million euros in FY 2010 against 526.5 million euro in FY 2009, for an increase of 50.5 million euros. Net profit for the year amounts to 83.0 million euros which increases by 11.1 million euros (+15.4%) in respect of FY 2009. EBIT is equal to 124.2 million euros in FY 2010, against 106.5 million in FY 2009.

The TODS brand reported excellent results: with revenues of 245.1 million euros, it grew by 15.8% compared with 2009. Growth was very strong in all product categories and in all markets. HOGAN brand revenue totalled 231.7 million euros in FY 2010, up 5.4% from the previous year.The brand is reorganising its presence at the international level in order to reinforce its image both the domestic and foreign markets. For this purpose, it has established a collaborative relationship with the famous designer Karl Lagerfeld. FAY brand revenues were substantially unchanged at 81.9 million euros in FY 2010 (FY 2009: 82.4 million euros). The ROGER VIVIER brand leapt upwards by 57.9% from 2009, with sales totalling 14.9 million euros.As has been remarked repeatedly, analysis of the results generated by this brand is not yet entirely significant, insofar as it is still in the phase of launching and consolidating its exclusive cachet and prestige. While the company confirms its unchallenged leadership in its core shoe business, where revenues grew by 9.2% in FY 2010 to 419.4 million euros, the strong growth in leather goods sales was particularly significant in comparison with FY 2009 (+17.6%), reflecting the excellent results of the entire collection of TODS brand handbags and accessories. Aggregate leather good and accessory revenues totalled 65.1 million euros in FY 2010. Finally, apparel revenues totalled 89.4 million euros in FY 2010, up 6.9% from FY 2009. The geographical breakdown of revenues shows the strength of the company on the domestic market, where revenues totalled 369.6 million euros in 2010, up 6.1% from 2009.The sales results for the rest of Europe were positive as well: revenues totalled 114.5 million euros, up 2.5% from the previous year. However, the best performance was reported on the American and Asian markets. The United States market reported outstanding results, where revenues grew by 16.9% to 28.3 million euros in FY 2010.The Asia and Rest of World area also reported fantastic growth. Sales reached 64.7 million euros, up 53.2% from 2009.The results posted in China, Hong Kong,Taiwan and South Korea were particularly brilliant.
Operating results. EBITDA totalled 138.5 million euros in FY 2010, rising by 18.0 million euros in absolute terms from the previous year (+14.9%).At December 31st 2010 EBITDA amounted to 24.0% of sales, with the gross profit margin rising 110 basis points from FY 2009, when it hit 22.9% of revenues. On a comparable exchange rate basis, i.e. using the average exchange rates for 2009, EBITDA would have been 136.0 million euros, and it would have been equal to 23.8% of revenues. Gross operating profit in FY 2010 also benefited from the vigorous growth in sales volumes in terms of quality. The breakdown of 2010 revenues compared with the previous year is characterised by the greater contribution made by certain product categories (especially leather goods) that guarantee a higher sales margin for the company. The impact of improved production efficiency also had a positive impact on profitability. This was the result of continuous streamlining of industrial processes. The percentage impact of amortisation and depreciation did not change significantly, with these costs totalling 13.5 million euros in FY 2010 (13.1 million euros in FY 2009). Net of accruals for contingent liabilities and charges totalling 0.9 million euros, EBIT in FY 2010 totalled 124.2 million euros, up 17.6 million euros from EBIT in 2009. At December 31st 2010, EBIT represented 21.5% of company sales. In FY 2009 EBIT was 106.5 million euros, representing 20.2% of revenues. On a comparable exchange rate basis (average for 2009), EBIT would have been 121.7 million euros, or 21.3% of revenues. Net financial income amounted to 1.7 million euros, due to net foreign exchange gains and the major contribution made by interest accrued on cash. Pre-tax profit for 2010 totalled 125.8 million euros, compared with 106.9 million euros in 2009. Net of income taxes (including deferred taxes) for a total of 42.9 million euros (FY 2009: 34.9 million euros), which translated into a tax rate of 34.1%, (32.7% in the previous year), net profit for the year totalled 83.0 million euros, up 11.1 million euros compared with FY 2009, when it totalled 71.9 million euros. Net profit grew significantly: at December 31st 2010, net profit was 14.4% of revenues, compared with 13.7% in FY 2009. Capital expenditures. Capex totalled 13.6 million euros in FY 2010, up from 9.2 million euros in 2009.About 6.1 million euros were used for procurement of the accessory industrial equipment used to create its collections (lasts, hollow punches and moulds). A major share of capex (2.9 million euros) targeted development of corporate information systems, while 0.9 million euros was spent on protecting company brands, which represent a strategic asset. Net financial position (NFP). Net liquid assets at December 31st 2010 totalled 56.9 million euros, down 63.1 million euros from December 31st 2009 (120.1 million euros). Financial balances were heavily impacted by three transactions during the year. First of all, shareholders were paid an extraordinary dividend (Shareholders Meeting resolution of September 21st 2010) totalling 107.1 million euros, at the rate of 3.50 euros per share, in addition to the ordinary dividend of 45.9 million euros resolved upon approval of the 2009 annual report, with which the cash exceeding business requirements was distributed. Second of all, the entire share capital of Holpaf B.V. was acquired in November 2010.This is the Dutch company that owns the building that has housed the head office and flagship store of the subsidiary TODS Japan KK in Tokyo since 2005.The impact of the acquisition on the companys net financial position was about 24.1 million euros, of which 2.1 million euros for the transfer of company shares and 22 million euros for a capital grant to Holpaf B.V. so that it could repay the previous shareholders for a loan (for 20.6 million euros) granted by them before the sale of shares pursuant to the Sale & Purchase Agreement signed by the parties (TODS S.p.A. and Goral Investment Holding B.V.). Finally, in order to assure a balanced financial structure for certain indirect subsidiaries in the Far East, the company contributed 16.2 million euros to recapitalisation of the sub-holding TODS International B.V. On the liabilities side, the only financial exposure to the banking system remains the long-term loan obtained in 2003 and due in 2014.

Operating cash flow continued to grow to 141.9 million euros from the previous year, when it totalled 121.2 million euros, confirming the structural capacity of the company to generate cash with its own industrial activity. Cash flow contributed 106.1 million euros, compared with 93.1 million euros in 2009. Working capital made a positive contribution of 35.9 million euros during the year. A total of 13.6 million euros were used for investments (gross of disposals of 0.6 million euros).These investments were made in financial assets, comprised principally, as previously mentioned, of the payment of 153.9 million euros in dividends, the recapitalisation of subsidiaries for 16.2 million, and the acquisition of the entire share capital of Holpaf B.V. (24.1 million euros).
Research and development

Given the particular nature of the production, research and development activity consists of continuous technical/stylistic revision of models and constant improvement of the materials used to realise the product. Since this activity is exclusively ordinary, the associated costs are charged entirely to income in the year that they are incurred, and thus recognised as normal production costs.
Research and development costs, as defined above, have assumed major importance due to operating realisation of projects connected with expansion of the existing product line with new types of merchandise that complement current ones. These will increase the number of brands offered and stimulate increased sales to end customers.

Corporate Governance
The Corporate Governance system. The corporate governance system of the parent company TODS S.p.A. is based on the traditional system, or Latin model. The corporate bodies are: the Shareholders Meeting, which has the prerogative of resolving at its ordinary and extraordinary meetings on the matters reserved to it by law or the articles of association; the Board of Directors, which is vested with full, unlimited authority for ordinary and extraordinary management of the Company, with the right to perform all those acts that it deems appropriate to implement and realise the corporate purpose, excluding only those reserved by law to the Shareholders Meeting; the Board of Statutory Auditors, which is delegated by law to monitor i) compliance with the law, memorandum of association and compliance with the principles of proper management; ii) the adequacy of the organisational structure for matters falling under its purview, its internal control system and administrative and accounting system, as well as the adequacy of the latter in fairly reporting operating performance; iii) the adequacy of directives issued to TODS Group companies in regard to the information that they must provide in compliance with disclosure obligations; iv) the procedures for effective implementation of the corporate governance rules set out in the Corporate Governance Code adopted by the Group; Legislative Decree 39/2010 delegates the Board of Statutory Auditors the task of monitoring the process of financial disclosure and the effectiveness of the risk control and management systems, as well as independent audits and certification of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts, and the independence of the accounting firm retained to do so; the Manager in charge of preparing the company financial documents. The Board of Directors has set up several internal committees: the Executive Committee, the Internal Control and Corporate Governance Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Independent Directors Committee. The adopted corporate governance model is substantially based on the Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies, in its latest version as prepared by the Corporate Governance Committee for Listed Companies (sponsored by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. and comprised by representatives from several of the leading Italian companies and experts in this area), whose principles have been implemented by Tods S.p.A. with a series of Board of Directors resolutions since November 2006, as well as the reference models represented by international best practice. In implementation of the Related Party Transactions Regulation adopted by CONSOB with Resolution no. 17221 of March 12th 2010, as amended by Resolution no. 17389 of June 23rd 2010,TODS S.p.A. modified (by extending them to all Group companies) its existing procedures governing the transparency and substantive fairness of related party transactions, to bring them in line with the principles set out in the cited CONSOB Regulation. It consequently appointed an Independent Directors Committee.This committee is delegated the role and relevant duties assigned by the Regulation to the committee comprised only of independent directors (modifications to the procedure for related party transactions; examination and issuance of binding opinions on the most significant transactions; the Internal Control and Corporate Governance Committee is instead delegated with responsibility for examination and issuance of non-binding opinions on less significant transactions). Disclosure pursuant to Article 123-bis of Legislative Decree 58/1998 (TUF). At its meeting on March 14th 2011, the Board of Directors of TODS S.p.A. approved the annual Report on Corporate Governance and Shareholdings, which provides the disclosures mandated pursuant to Article 123-bis (1) of the Consolidated Law on Finance (T.U.F.).That report also analytically illustrates the corporate governance system of TODS S.p.A., and it includes not only the information required under Article 123-bis (2) T.U.F., but also a comprehensive examination
of the status of implementation of the corporate governance principles recommended by the Corporate Governance Code in accordance with the comply or explain rule. The Report also satisfies the requirements imposed by CONSOB pursuant to Article 114(5) T.U.F. with notice DEM/11012984 of February 24th 2011, in regard to the remuneration, self-evaluation and succession plans of the Board of Directors.

Management and coordination activities

Although TODS S.p.A. is subject to the control (pursuant to Article 93 of Legislative Decree 58/1998) of DI.VI. Finanziaria S.A.p.A., neither this latter company or any other party has dictated policy or interferred in the management of TODS S.p.A. (or any of the subsidiaries of TODS S.p.A.). Indeed, management of the issuer and its subsidiaries was not subject to any influence by third parties outside the TODs Group. TODS S.p.A. is not subject to management and coordination by the parent company DI.VI. Finanziaria SapA or any other party pursuant to Sections 2497 et seq. Italian Civil Code.

Its members include independent directors without executive responsibilities at the company, in accordance with the rules set out in Article 3 of the Corporate Governance Code. The expertise and authority of the independent directors without executive responsibilities and their material impact on decisions taken by the Board of Directors represent a further guarantee that all decisions by the Board of Directors are taken exclusively on behalf of TODS S.p.A. without being influenced by instructions or interference by third parties representing interests opposed to the Companys. All subsidiaries of TODS S.p.A. are subject to management and coordination by the issuer.
Significant events occurring after the end of the fiscal year

On January 21st 2011,TODS S.p.A. reached an agreement with the Italian Ministry of Cultural Affairs (Ministero per i Beni e le attivit culturali) and the Rome Special Fine Arts Service for Archaeological Monuments (Soprintendenza speciale per i beni archeologici di Roma), for the purpose of financing restoration work on the Colosseum as sole and exclusive sponsor. The agreement calls for the sponsor to put up a total, all-inclusive amount of 25 million euros, to be disbursed over several years according to the actual progress of restoration work approved by the delegated Commissioner and the Fine Arts Service.
Business outlook
FY 2010 ended on a high note in terms of revenues, profit margins and profitability, with growth steadily accelerating over the course of the year. Sales and financial figures have confirmed that consumers appreciate the high quality products offered by the Groups brands. By being fairly unsusceptible to seasonal changes, they guarantee a status that goes beyond fashion. In regard to business forecasts for the current year, the Spring-Summer 2011 collection sales campaign results and the excellent sales trends suggested by distribution network figures for the beginning of the current season reasonably allow us to expect superb results again in 2011.
Motion for allocation of the profit for the year

It is proposed that the net profit for FY 2010, 82,974,255.62 euros, be allocated as follows: i. 21,755,453.62 euros to the extraordinary reserve; ii. 61,218,802.00 euros, to be distributed to shareholders in the form of a dividend of 2.00 euros per share for each of the outstanding 30,609,801 shares.

SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES
1.
General notes
The Notes to the Separate Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with IAS/IFRS and supplemented by the additional information required by CONSOB and the orders it issued in implementation of Article 9 of Legislative Decree 38/2005 (Resolutions 15519 and 15520 of July 27th 2006 and memorandum DEM/6064293 of July 28th 2006, pursuant to Article 114(5) of the Consolidated Law on Finance-TUF), Article 78 of the Issuer Regulation, the EC document of November 2003 and, when applicable, the Italian Civil Code. Consistently with the financial statements for the previous year, certain information is provided in the Report by the Board of Directors on Operations. The Separate financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of TODS S.p.A. on March 14th 2011.
2.
Financial statements format: choice of form and classification principles
On transition to IFRSs,TODS S.p.A. opted to continue using the same balance sheet and income statement formats used in its disclosures pursuant to Italian GAAP for presentation of its financial position and operating results.These financial statements, complemented as necessary by the Report of the Board of Directors on Operations and the notes to the financial statements, are considered to be those that provide the best organized representation of the company financial position and income. More specifically, the balance sheet format shows current items separately from non-current items (both assets and liabilities). On the profit and loss account, the format of representing revenues and costs by nature is followed, indicating the EBITDA and EBIT results as in the past, since they are considered representative indicators of company performance.The indirect method is used for the statement of cash flows.
3.
Highlights of the accounting principles
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS/IFRS (International Accounting Standards-IAS, and International Financial Reporting Standards-IFRS) issued by the IASB, on the basis of the text published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU). Furthermore, they are prepared on the basis of historic costs, with the sole exception of derivative financial instruments, which are measured at fair value. Accounting principles, amendments, interpretations applicable since January 1st 2010 and not relevant for the Group The following accounting standards are applicable since 1st January 2010 and refer to situations or cases that were not applied to TODS Group Financial Statements of the year ending at December 31st 2010: IFRS 3 (2008) - Business combinations.The updated version of IFRS 3 introduced major changes, principally in regard to: the regulations governing incremental acquisitions of subsidiaries; the option of fair value measurement of any third party interests acquired in a partial acquisition; the charging to income of all costs connected with the business combination and recognition at the acquisition date of the liabilities for conditional payments. IAS 27 (2008) - Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements.The changes to IAS 27 principally concern the accounting treatment of transactions or events that modify equity interests in subsidiaries and the allocation of losses by the subsidiary to minority interests. The following amendments, interpretations are also applicable since 1st January 2010 and refer to situations or cases that were not applied to TODS Group Financial Statements of the year ending at December 31st 2010: Improvement to IFRS 5 - Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. Amendments to IAS 28 - Investments in Associates and to IAS 31 - Interests in Joint Ventures consequential to the amendment to IAS 27. Improvements to IAS/IFRS (2009).

110 Supplementary Notes
IFRIC 17 - Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners. IFRIC 18 - Transfers of Assets from Customers. Amendment to IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement: Eligible Hedged items. 3.1 Transactions in foreign currency. The functional currency (the currency used in the principal economic area where the company operates) used to present the financial statements is the Euro. Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency by applying the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the date of the financial statements are translated by using the exchange rate in effect at the closing date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are valued at their historic cost in foreign currency and translated by using the exchange rate in effect at the transaction date. The foreign exchange differences arising upon settlement of these transactions or translation of cash assets and liabilities are recognized on the profit and loss account, with the exception of those deriving from derivative financial instruments qualified as hedging of financial flows. In fact, these differences are recognized as a separate component of shareholders equity or on the profit and loss account. 3.2 Derivative financial instruments. The company uses derivate financial instruments (mainly currency futures contracts) to hedge the risks stemming from foreign exchange exposure deriving from its operating activity, without any speculative or trading purposes, and consistently with the strategic policies of centralized cash management dictated by the Board of Directors. When derivative transactions refer to a risk connected with the variability of forecast transaction cash flow, they are recognized according to the rules for cash flow hedge until the transaction is recorded on the books. Subsequently, the derivatives are treated in accordance with fair value hedge rules, insofar as they can be qualified as instruments for hedging changes in the value of assets or liabilities carried on the balance sheet. The hedge accounting method is used at every financial statement closing date. This method envisages posting derivatives on the balance sheet at their fair value. Posting of the changes in fair value varies according to the type of hedging at the valuation date: for derivatives that hedge forecast transactions (i.e. cash flow hedge), the changes are recognized in shareholders equity, while the portion for the ineffective amount is recognized on the profit and loss account, under financial income and expenses; for derivatives that hedge receivables and payables recognized on the balance sheet (i.e. fair value hedge), the fair value differences are recognized entirely on the profit and loss account, adjusting operating margins. Furthermore, the value of the hedged item (receivables/payables) is adjusted for the change in value attributable to the hedged risk, using the item financial income and expenses as a contra-entry. 3.3 Intangible fixed assets. Goodwill. All business combinations are recognized by applying the acquisition method. Goodwill represents the portion of the cost paid for the acquisition that exceeds the companys interest in the fair value of the assets, liabilities, and identifiable potential liabilities of the subsidiary or jointly controlled entity at the acquisition date. If the companys interest in the fair value of assets, liabilities, and identifiable potential liabilities exceeds the cost of the acquisition (negative goodwill) after redetermination of these values, the excess is immediately recognized on the profit and loss account. For acquisitions prior to January 1st 2004, the date of transition to IAS/IFRS, goodwill retained the values recognized on the basis of the previous Italian GAAP, net of accumulated amortization up to the transition date. Goodwill is recognized on the financial statements at its cost adjusted for impairment losses. It is not subject to amortization, but the adequacy of the values is annually subjected to the impairment test, in accordance with the rules set forth in the section Impairment losses.
i. ii. Trademarks. These are recognized according to the value of their cost and/or acquisition, net of accumulated amortization at the date of transition to IAS/IFRS.Trademarks TODS, HOGAN e FAY are classified as intangible fixed assets with an indefinite useful life and thus are not amortized, insofar as:
they play a primary role in company strategy and are an essential driver thereof; the corporate structure, construed as organized property, plant, and equipment, and organization itself in a figurative sense, is closely correlated with and dependent on dissemination and development of the trademarks on the markets; the trademarks are proprietary, properly registered, and constantly protected pursuant to law, with options for renewal of legal protection, upon expiration of the registration periods, that are not burdensome, easily implemented, and without external impediments; the products sold by the company with these trademarks are not subject to particular technological obsolescence, which is characteristic of the luxury market in which the company operates; on the contrary, they are consistently perceived by the market as being innovative and trendy, to the point of being models for imitation or inspiration; in the national and/or international context characteristic of each trademark, they are distinguished by market positioning and notoriety that ensures their dominance of the respective market segments, being constantly associated and compared with benchmark brands; in the relative competitive context, it can be affirmed that the investments made for maintenance of the trademarks are proportionately modest with respect to the large forecast cash flows. The adequacy of the values is annually subjected to the impairment test, in accordance with the rules set forth in the section Impairment losses.
iii. Research and development costs. The research costs for a project are charged fully to the profit and loss account of the period in which they are incurred. The development costs of an activity are instead capitalized if the technical and commercial feasibility of the relative activity and economic return on the investment are certain and definite, and the company has the intention and resources necessary to complete the development. The capitalized costs include the costs for materials, labor, and an adequate portion of overhead costs.They are recognized at cost, net of accumulated amortization and depreciation (see below) and impairment losses. iv. Other intangible fixed assets. These are identifiable non-monetary intangible assets under the control of
the company and capable of causing the company to realize future economic benefits. They are initially recognized at their purchase cost, including expenses that are directly attributable to them during preparation of the asset for its intended purpose or production, if the conditions for capitalization of expenses incurred for internally generated expenses are satisfied. The cost method is used for determining the value reported on subsequent statements, which entails posting the asset at its cost net of accumulated amortization and write-downs for impairment losses.
v. Subsequent capitalization. The costs incurred for these intangible fixed assets after purchase are capitalized only to the extent that they increase the future economic benefits of the specific asset they refer to.All the other costs are charged to the profit and loss account in the fiscal year in which they are incurred. vi. Amortization. Intangible fixed assets (excluding those with an indefinite useful life) are amortized on a straightline basis over the period of their estimated useful life, starting from the time the assets are available for use.
3.4 Tangible fixed assets.

i. Property, plant, and equipment owned by the company. They are first recognized at their purchase cost or at the cost recalculated at the date of transition to IFRS, including any directly attributable ancillary expenses. Following first-time recognition, these assets are reported net of their accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (i.e. in accordance with the cost model). For those assets whose depreciation must be calculated using the component approach, the portions of cost allocable to the individual significant components characterized by a different useful life are determined. In this case, the value of land and buildings is kept separate, with only buildings being depreciated.
Leasing. Lease agreements in which the Company assumes all the risks and benefits deriving from ownership of the asset are classified as finance leasing.The assets (real estate, plant, and machinery) possessed pursuant to these agreements are recorded under property, plant, and equipment at the lesser of their fair value on the date the agreement was made, and the current value of the minimum payments owed for leasing, net of accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses (according to the rules described in the section Impairment losses).A financial payable for the same amount is recognized instead under liabilities, while the component of interest expenses for finance leasing payments is reported on the profit and loss account according to the effective interest method. ii. iii. Subsequent capitalizations. The costs incurred for property, plant, and equipment after purchase are capitalized only to the extent that they increase the future economic benefits of the asset.All the other costs are charged to the profit and loss account in the fiscal year in which they are incurred. iv. Real estate investments. Real estate investments are originally recognized at cost, and then recognized at
their cost as adjusted for accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated on a systematic, straight-line basis according to the estimated useful life of the buildings.
v. Depreciation. Property, plant, and equipment were systematically depreciated at a steady rate according to the depreciation schedules defined on the basis of their estimated useful life. Land is not depreciated.The principal depreciation rates applied are as follows:
% depreciation 3% 12.5% 25% 25% 12% 20% 20%-25%
Industrial buildings Machinery and plant Equipments Forms and punches, clichs, molds and stamp Furniture and furnishings Office machines Car and transport vehicles
The costs for leasehold improvements, which mainly include the costs incurred for set up and modernization of the DOS network and all the other real estate that is not owned but used by the company (and thus instrumental to its activity) are depreciated according to the term of the lease agreement or the useful life of the asset, if this is shorter. 3.5 Impairment losses. In the presence of indicators, events, or changes in circumstances that presume the existence of impairment losses, IAS 36 envisages subjecting intangible fixed assets and property, plant and equipment to the impairment test in order to assure that assets with a value higher than the recoverable value are not recognized on the financial statements. As previously mentioned, this test is performed at least once annually for fixed assets with an indefinite useful life, and likewise for fixed assets that are not yet in use. Confirmation of the recoverability of the values recognized on the balance sheet is obtained by comparing the book value at the reference date and the fair value net of sale costs (if available) or usage value.The usage value of a tangible or intangible fixed asset is determined according to the estimated future financial flows expected from the asset, as actualized through use of a discount rate net of taxes, which reflects the current market value of the current value of the cash and risks related to the Group activity, as well as the cash flows deriving from disposal of the asset at the end of its useful life. If it is not possible to estimate an independent financial flow for an individual asset, the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs and with which it is possible to associate future cash flows that can be objectively determined and independent from those generated by other operating units is identified. Identification of the cash generating units was carried out consistently with the organizational and operating architecture of the Company.
If the impairment test reveals an impairment loss for an asset, its book value is reduced to the recoverable value by posting a charge on the profit and loss account, unless the asset is revalued. In that case, the write-down is recognized in the revaluation reserve. When the reasons for a write-down cease to exist, the book value of the asset (or the cash generating unit), with the exception of goodwill, is increased to the new value resulting from the estimate of its recoverable value, but not beyond the net book value that the asset would have had if the impairment loss had not been charged.The restored value is recognized immediately on the profit and loss account, unless the asset is revalued, in which case the restored value is recognized in the revaluation reserve. 3.6 Investments in subsidiaries and associated companies. The investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures, and associated companies that are not classified as held for sale in compliance with IFRS 5 are recognised at their historic cost.The value recognised on the financial statements is periodically subjected to the impairment test, as envisaged by IAS 36, and adjusted for any impairment losses. 3.7 Current assets. Financial assets. These are recognized and cancelled on the balance sheet according to the trading date and are initially valued at cost, including costs directly connected with the purchase. At the subsequent financial statement dates, the financial assets that the company intends and is able to hold until maturity (securities held until maturity) are recognized at the cost amortized according to the effective interest method, net of impairment losses. Financial assets other than those held until maturity are classified as held for trading or available for sale, and are recognized at their fair value at the end of each period.When the financial assets are held for trading, the profits and losses deriving from changes in the fair value are recognized on the profit and loss account for the period. In the case of financial assets available for sale, the profits and losses deriving from changes in the fair value are recognized directly in shareholders equity until they are sold or have sustained a loss in value. At that time, the aggregate profits or losses that were previously recognized in shareholders equity are recognized on the profit and loss account of the period.
i. ii. Inventories. These are recognized at the lower of purchase cost and their assumed disposal value.The net disposal value represents the best estimate of the net sales price that can be realized through ordinary business processes, net of any production costs not yet incurred and direct sales costs. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average cost method. The production cost is determined by including all costs that are directly allocable to the products, regarding for work in progress and/or semi-finished products the specific stage of the process that has been reached.The values that are thus obtained do not differ appreciably from the current production costs referring to the same classes of assets. A special depreciation reserve is set aside for the portion of inventories that are no longer considered economically useable, or with a presumed disposal value that is less than the cost recognized on the financial statements. iii. Trade receivables and other receivables. These are valued and recognized on a prudent basis according
to their presumed disposal value, by means of adjusting the face value with a specific allowance for doubtful accounts determined as follows: receivables under litigation, with certain and precise evidence documenting the impossibility of collecting them, have been analytically identified and then written down; for other bad debts, prudent allowances for write-downs have been set aside, estimated on the basis of information updated at the date of this document.
iv. Cash. This includes cash on hand, bank demand deposits, and financial investments with a maturity of no more
than three months. These assets are highly liquid, easily convertible into cash, and subject to a negligible risk of change in value.
3.8 Employee benefits.

i Defined contribution plans. The payments for eventual defined contribution plans are charged to the profit
and loss account in the period that they are owed.

ii. Defined benefit plans. For defined benefit plans, the cost is determined by using the projected unit credit method, carrying out actuarial valuations at the end of every fiscal year. The accumulated actuarial profits and losses not recognized at the beginning of the fiscal year are recognized only to the extent that they exceed 10% of the greater between the current volume of defined benefit plan liabilities and the fair value of the assets of the program at that date.The cost of past work services is recognized immediately in the amount in which the benefits have already accrued or is otherwise amortized at a constant rate by the average period in which it is expected that the benefits will accrue. The liabilities for benefits paid out after termination of the employment relationship reported on the financial statements represent the current value of liabilities for defined benefit plans adjusted to take into account the actuarial profits and losses that were not recognized and the costs for past work services that were not recognized, and reduced by the fair value of the program assets. Any net assets resulting from this calculation are limited to the value of the unreported actuarial losses and the cost for the past work services that were not recognized, plus the current value of any reimbursements and reductions in the future contributions to the plan.
iii. Share based payments. The payments based on shares are assessed at their fair value on the assignment date. This value is recognized on the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis throughout the period of accrual of the rights.This allocation is made on the basis of a management estimate of the stock options that will actually accrue in favor of vested employees, considering the conditions for use thereof not based on their market value. The fair value is determined by using the binomial method.The useful life utilized in the model has been adjusted according to an estimate by management in order to take into account the effects of non-transferability of the options, restrictions on exercise thereof, and the assumed behavior of individuals.
3.9 Payables.
Bank overdrafts and financing. Interest-bearing financing and bank overdrafts are recognized on the basis of the amounts collected, net of transaction costs, and subsequently valued at the amortized cost, using the effective interest method. i. ii. Trade payables and other payables. These are their face value.
3.10 Revenues recognition. Revenues are recognized on the profit and loss account when the significant risks and benefits connected with ownership of the transferred assets are transferred to the buyer. In reference to the principal types realized by the company, revenues are recognized on the basis of the following principles: a. Sales of goods - retail. The company operates in the retail channel through its DOS network. Revenues are recognised when the goods are delivered to customers. Sales are usually collected in the form of cash or through credit cards; b. Sales of goods - wholesale. The company distributes products on the wholesale market. These revenues are recognised when the goods are shipped and considering the estimated effects of returns at the end of the year; c. Provision of services.This income is recognised in proportion to the percentage of completion for the service provided on the reference date; d. Royalties.These are recognised on the financial statements according to the principle of period allocation. 3.11 Financial income and expenses. These include all financial items recognized on the profit and loss account for the period, including interest expenses accrued on financial payables calculated by using the effective interest method (mainly current account overdrafts, medium-long term financing), foreign exchange gains and losses, gains and losses on derivative financial instruments (according to the previously defined accounting
principles), received dividends, the portion of interest expenses deriving from accounting treatment of assets held under finance leasing (IAS 17) and employee reserves (IAS 19). Interest income and expenses are recognized on the profit and loss account for the period in which they are realized/incurred, with the exception of capitalized expenses. Dividend income contributes to the result for the period in which the company accrues the right to receive the payment. 3.12 Income taxes. The income taxes for the period include determination both of current taxes and deferred taxes.They are recognized entirely on the profit and loss account and included in the result for the period, unless they are generated by transactions recognized directly to shareholders equity during the current or another period. In this case, the relative deferred tax liabilities are also recognized under shareholders equity. Current taxes on taxable income for the period represent the tax burden determined by using the tax rates in effect at the reference date, and any adjustments to the tax payables calculated during previous periods. Deferred tax liabilities refer to the temporary differences between the book values of assets and liabilities on the balance and the associated values relevant for determination of taxable income.The tax liability of all temporary taxable differences, with the exception of liabilities deriving from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, at the time of the transaction, does not influence either the income (loss) reported on the financial statements or taxable income (tax loss). Deferred tax assets that derive from temporary deductible differences are recognized on the financial statements only to the extent that it is likely taxable income will be realized for which the temporary deductible difference can be used. No allocation is envisaged if the deferred tax asset derives from business combinations, or from the initial posting of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, at the time of the transaction, does not influence either the income (loss) reported on the financial statements or taxable income (tax loss). The tax benefits resulting from tax losses are recognized on the financial statements of the period in which the benefits accrued, if it is likely that taxable income will be realized and for which the tax loss can be used. The taxes in question (deferred tax assets and liabilities) are determined on the basis of a forecast of the assumed percentage weight of the taxes on the income of the fiscal years in which the taxes will occur, taking into account the specific nature of taxability and deductibility.The effect of change in tax rates is recognized on the profit and loss account of the fiscal year in which this change takes place. 3.13 Provisions. These are certain or probable liabilities that have not been determined at the date they occurred and in the amount of the economic resources to be used for fulfilling the obligation, but which can nonetheless be reliably estimated.They are recognized on the balance sheet in the event of an existing obligation resulting from a past event, and it is likely that the company will be asked to satisfy the obligation. If the effect is significant, and the date of the presumed discharge of the obligation can be estimated with sufficient reliability, the provisions are recognized on the balance sheet by actualizing future financial flows. The provisions that can be reasonably expected to be discharged twelve months after the reference date are classified on the financial statements under non-current liabilities. Instead, the provisions for which the use of resources capable of generating economic benefits is expected to take place in less than twelve months after the reference date are recognized as current liabilities. 3.14 Share capital. Share capital. The total value of shares issued by the parent company is recognized entirely under shareholders equity, as they are the instruments representing its capital.
i.
ii. Treasury stock. The consideration paid for buy-back of share capital (treasury stock), including the expenses directly related to the transaction, is subtracted from shareholders equity. In particular, the par value of the shares reduces the share capital, while the excess value is recognized as an adjustment to additional paidin capital.
iii. Dividends. The allocation of dividends to persons possessing instruments representing share capital after the reference date of the financial statement is not recognized under financial liabilities on the same reference date.
3.15 Statement of cash flows. The statement of cash flows is drafted using the indirect method. The net financial flows of operating activity are determined by adjusting the result for the period of the effects deriving from change to net operating working capital, non-monetary items, and all the other effects connected with investment and financing activities. Cash at the beginning and end of the period represents the net-short-term financial position.
4.
Dividends
In FY 2010, the Shareholders Meeting of the parent company TODS S.p.A. approved payment of a total 153 million euros, broken down as follows: i) ordinary dividends to be charged against the net profit for FY 2009 (Shareholders Meeting of April 22nd 2010), totalling 45,914,101.50 euros, at the rate of 1.50 euros per share; ii) extraordinary dividends, to be charged to the extraordinary reserve (Shareholders Meeting of September 21st 2010), for 107,132,903.50 euros, at the rate of 3.50 euros per share; in favour of the owners of the 30,609,401 outstanding ordinary shares comprising the share capital, entitled to participate in profits on the coupon detachment date (May 24th 2010 and October 11th 2010, respectively). Regarding the net profit for FY 2010, totalling 82,974,255.62, the Board of Directors has proposed to distribute a dividend for two euro per share, totalling 61,218,802.00 euros.The dividend is subject to approval by the annual Shareholders Meeting, and was not included among the liabilities reported on this balance sheet.
5.
Earnings per share
The calculation of base and diluted earnings per share is based on the following:
i. Reference profit
Euro 000s For continuing and discontinued operations Profit used to determine basic earning per share Dilution effects Profit used to determine basic earning per share
Year 10 82,974 82,974
Year 09 71,921 71,921

Year 10 82,974 82,974 82,974
Year 09 71,921 71,921 71,921
In both fiscal 2010 and 2009, there were no dilutions of net consolidated earnings, partly as a result of activities that were discontinued during the periods in question.

iii. Base earnings per share. Calculation of the base earning per share for fiscal year 2010 is based on the net income allocable to holders of ordinary shares of TODS S.p.A., totalling euro 82,974 thousand (71,921 thousand euros in 2009), and on the average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the same period, totalling 30,609,401 (unchanged respect to year 2009). iv. Diluted earnings per share. Calculation of the diluted earnings per share for the period January-December 2010 coincides with calculation of earnings per share, insofar as conclusion of the Stock Options Plan in year 2009.

Impairment losses
The recoverability of the residual value of assets with an indefinite and definite useful life, as of property, plant and equipment and Equity Investments in subsidiaries (Assets) was determined to ensure that assets with a value higher than the recoverable value were not recognised on the financial statements, which refers to their value in use. The criterion used to determine value in use is based on the provisions of IAS 36, and is based on the current value of expected future cash flows (discounted cash-flow analysis - DCF), which is presumed to derive from the continual use and disposal of an asset at the end of its useful life, discounted at an interest rate (net of taxes) that reflects current market rates for borrowing money and the specific risk associated with the individual cash generating unit. The recoverability of Assets was verified by comparing the net book value with the recoverable value (value in use). The value in use is represented by the discounted value of future cash flows that are expected from Assets and by the terminal value attributable to them. The discounted cash flow analysis was carried out by using the FY 2010 budget as its basis.That budget was prepared and approved by the Board of Directors on the assumption that the Company would be a going concern for the foreseeable future: the Board of Directors first assessed the methods and assumptions used in developing the model. In particular: i. The medium-term projection of budget figures for FY 2011 was carried out on a time horizon limited to the foreseeable future, using an average rate of sales growth of 5%, a constant EBITDA margin and a constant tax rate of 32%.These prudent assumptions represent trends that are lower than the historic (including recent) trend of the Group. Consequently, the budget projections comply with the prescriptions of IAS 36. ii. The terminal value of strategic assets (brands), was determined by using the same prudent growth rate used to extrapolate budget data (5%) for future projections, as well as the rates of return on brands positioned at the lower end of the market for licenses. iii. To determine the value in use, a WACC, net of taxes, of 8.84% was used (the WACC rate used at December 31st 2009 was 8.6%), determined by referring to the discounting rates used by a series of international analysts in financial reports on the TODS Group.
The analyses carried out on the recoverability of Company assets (including 137.2 million euros represented by proprietary brands and 13.2 million by goodwill from business combinations) and equity investments in subsidiaries (worth 143.2 million euros at December 31st 2010) did not show any sign of impairment. The sensitivity analysis performed on the impairment test in accordance with IAS 36, in order to reveal the effects produced on the value in use by a reasonable change in the basic assumptions (WACC, growth rates, EBITDA margin) and determination of the terminal value (perpetual annuity), did not reveal an appreciable impact on determination of the value in use and its coverage. Given the significant value assumed by the cover, it would be necessary to make unrealistic base assumptions to render the value in use equal to the book value of Group assets (the break-even hypothesis).
10. Investment property

The residual value of investment property at December 31st 2010 was euro 46 thousand. It consisted exclusively of real estate leased to third parties.The fair value of these investments is estimated to be euro 250 thousand, according to the market prices for similar properties available for rent at similar conditions.

11. Investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures, and associated companies

The value of equity investments owned by the Company at December 31st 2010 totalled 143,196 thousand euros. On November 26th 2010 (the closing date) the Group acquired 100% of the shares of Holpaf B.V., a Dutch company with head office in Amsterdam. This deal is classifiable as a related party transaction, insofar as Holpaf B.V. was indirectly controlled, through Goral Investment Holding B.V., by Diego DellaValle & C. SAPA, a company belonging to Diego and Andrea Della Valle, and controlled by Diego Della Valle (also see note 23). Holpaf B.V. owns a property (land and building) in the Shibuya district of Tokyo, on one of the most prestigious and heavily trafficked streets of the quarter popularly known as Omotesando.TODS Japan K.K. has used this building on an exclusive basis since 2005, pursuant to a lease agreement made on February 22nd 2005 with Holpaf B.V.The building houses the administrative offices of TODS Japan and also serves as the location for the most important TODS flagship store in Japan.The price for sale of the company shares was agreed in the total amount of JPY 230 million, about euro 2.1 million at the exchange rate in effect on the closing date (JPY 110.92/EUR 1).This figure was based on the value of the pro-forma net equity of Holpaf B.V. at September 30th 2010, while also considering the Japanese tax liability for the higher market value of the property as opposed to its cost recognised for tax purposes, and adjustment of the price according to the differences between the net financial position of the acquired company at the closing date and the pro-forma net financial position at September 30th 2010. At the same time it acquired the shares, the company recapitalised Holpaf B.V. for 22 million euros (share premium), to provide it with the financial resources necessary for full repayment of a shareholder loan of 20.6 million euros, granted by the previous owners prior to the acquisition, pursuant to the Sale & Purchase Agreement signed by the parties (TODS S.p.A. and Goral Investment Holding B.V.). For a complete analysis of the transaction, please see the Disclosure drafted in compliance with the rules set out in the new Annex 3 of the Related Parties Regulation no. 17221/2010, which is also available on the corporate website www.todsgroup.com.
Finally, in order to assure a balanced financial structure for certain indirect subsidiaries in the Far East, the company contributed 16.2 million euros to recapitalisation of the sub-holding TODS International B.V., consequently increasing the value of the shareholding by this amount. Finally, the value of the shareholdings in the indirect subsidiaries TODS Hong Kong Ltd and TODS Macao Lda increased by 121 thousand euros and 18 thousand euros, respectively, following the capital increases carried out by these companies, for the 1% share owned directly by TODS S.p.A The impairment tests performed at the reporting date showed no impairment (also see note 9).

The loan is recognised at cost, a value that approximates its fair value, since the difference between the nominal and effective interest rates for the transaction are insignificant.
17. Derivative financial instruments

Given the Companys major presence on international markets, it is exposed to exchange rate risk, principally for revenues denominated in currencies other than the euro (see Note 18).The principal currencies that pose this risk are the U.S. dollar, Hong Kong dollar, Swiss franc, and British pound. In order to realise the objectives envisaged in the risk management policy, derivative contracts were made for every single foreign currency to hedge a specific percentage of revenue (and cost) volumes expected in the individual currencies other than the functional currency. At each reporting date, the hedge accounting method is applied. This requires recognition of the derivatives in equity at their fair value and recognition of the changes in fair value, which varies according to the type of hedge at the valuation date. At the closing date, the notional amount of the currency futures sales agreements are summarized as follows:
Currency/000 Notional currency 24,000 407,000 350,000 6,150 5,800 1,780 Sale Notional Euro 17,961 48,818 3,221 7,145 4,639 1,636 73,491 Purchase Notional Notional currency Euro -
US dollar Hong Kong dollar Japanese Yen British pound Swiss Franc Canadian dollar Total
At the same date, the net fair value of foreign currency hedges was 1,397 thousand euros, including assets for 1,992 thousand euros (FY 2009: 356 thousand euros) and liabilities for 595 thousand euros (FY 2009: 353 thousand euros).The net fair value of foreign currency hedges that were earmarked for cash flow hedges was 118 thousand euros (asset) at December 31st 2010. Against the contracts for these last hedges, which were closed between January and December 2010, 2,056 thousand euros in hedge derivatives were transferred to the profit and loss account, recognised as a reduction in revenues.
18. Hedging of financial risks

The company has implemented a system for monitoring its financial risks in accordance with the guidelines set out in the Corporate Governance Code of Listed Companies.As part of this policy, the financial risks connected with its operations are constantly monitored in order to assess their potential negative impact and undertake appropriate action to mitigate them. These risks are analysed as follows, highlighting the companys level of exposure. It also includes a sensitivity analysis designed to quantify the potential impact of hypothetical fluctuations in benchmark parameters on final results.
i. Credit risk
Credit risk represents the exposure to potential losses stemming from failure to discharge obligations towards trading counterparties. The company generates its revenues through three main channels: Group companies (directly operated store network), franchisees and customers (multi-brand).There is practically no credit risk on receivables from the Company, since almost all the entities belonging to the TODS Group are wholly owned by the Group.The receivables from independent customers (franchisee e wholesale), are subject to a hedging policy designed to streamline credit management and reduce the associated risk. In particular, company policy does not envisage granting credit to customers, while the creditworthiness of all customers, both long-standing and potential ones, is periodically analysed in order to monitor and prevent possible solvency crises.
The following table shows the ageing of trade receivables to third parties (and thus excluding intercompany positions) outstanding at December 31st 2010:
Euro 000s Third parties Current 74,780 0>60 23,625 Expired 60>120 6,816
Over 3,388
Total 108,609
The prudent estimate of losses on the entire credit mass existing at December 31st 2010 was 3.1 million euros.
ii. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will not dispose of the funds necessary to meet its short-term commitments and financial requirements.The principal factors that determine the companys degree of liquidity are the resources generated or used by operating and investment activities and, on the other hand, the due dates or renewal dates of its payables or the liquidity of its financial investments and market conditions. In the specific case, the company faces no liquidity risk due to its profitability, current and historic capacity to generate cash, and its limited exposure to the banking system. At December 31st 2010 the companys cash and cash equivalents totalled 63.7 million euros; its debt exposure was 6.8 million euros, and was represented by a medium-long term loan (see Note 16). The Companys policy for financial assets is to keep all of its available liquidity invested in demand bank deposits without recourse to financial instruments, even on the money market, and dividing the deposits amongst a reasonable number of bank counterparties, prudently selecting them according to the return on deposits and their solidity.
iii. Market risk
IFRS 7 includes in this category all risks that are directly or indirectly connected with the fluctuation in prices on physical and financial markets to which the company is exposed: exchange rate risk; interest rate risk; commodity risk, connected with the volatility of prices for the raw materials used in the production process. The company is exposed to exchange rate and interest rate risk, since there is no physical market subject to actual fluctuations in the purchase prices for raw materials used in the production process. The following paragraphs analyse the individual risks, using sensitivity analysis as necessary to highlight the potential risk on final results stemming from hypothetical fluctuations in benchmark parameters.As envisaged by IFRS 7, these analyses are based on simplified scenarios applied to the final results for the periods referred to. By their very nature, they cannot be considered indicators of the actual effects of future changes in benchmark parameters of a different asset and liability structure and financial position different market conditions, nor can they reflect the interelations and complexity of the reference markets. Exchange rate risk. Due to its commercial operations, the company is exposed to fluctuations in the exchange rates for currencies in which some of its commercial transactions are denominated (particularly USD, GBP, CHF and those of certain countries in the Far East), against a cost structure that is concentrated principally in the eurozone. The company realises greater revenues than costs in all these currencies; therefore, changes in the exchange rate between the euro and the aforementioned currencies can impact the companys results. With the exception of the foregoing, the company is not particularly exposed to foreign exchange risk.The residual component of this risk is connected principally with translation risk.This risk stems from the fact that the assets and liabilities of consolidated companies whose functional currency is different from the euro can have different countervalues in euros according to changes in foreign exchange rates. The measured amount of this risk is recognised in the translation reserve in equity. The company monitors the changes in the exposure. No hedges of this risk existed at the reporting date. Governance of individual foreign currency operations by Group subsidiaries is highly simplified by the fact that they are wholly owned by the parent company.
The companys risk management policy aims to ensure that the average countervalue in euros of receipts on wholesale transactions denominated in foreign currencies for each collection (Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter) is equal to or greater than what would be obtained by applying the pre-set target exchange rates. The company pursues these aims by entering into forward contracts for each individual currency to hedge a specific percentage of the expected revenue (and cost) volumes in the individual currencies other than the functional currency.These positions are not hedged for speculative or trading purposes, consistently with the strategic policies adopted for prudent management of cash flows. Consequently, the company might forego opportunities to realise certain gains, but it avoids running the risks of speculation. The company defines its exchange risk a priori according to the reference period budget for the reference period and then gradually hedges this risk upon acquisition of orders, in the amount according to which they correspond to budget forecasts.The process of hedging exchange rate risk is broken down into a series of activities that can be grouped into the following distinct phases: definition of operating limits; identification and quantification of exposure; implementation of hedges; monitoring of positions and alert procedures. The breakdown of forward currency contracts (for sale and purchase) outstanding at December 31st 2010 is illustrated in Note 17. The assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currency are identified as part of the sensitivity analysis of exchange rates. In order to determine the potential impact on final results, the potential effects of fluctuations in the cross rates for the euro and major non-EU currencies have been analysed.The following table illustrates the sensitivity to reasonably likely changes in exchange rates on pre-tax profit (due to changes in the value of current assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency) while holding all other variables constant:
Euro Currency CAD CHF GBP HKD JPY KRW RMB SGD USD Other Total Country Canada Switzerland UK Hong Kong Japan South Korea China Singapore USA n.a. Impact on pre-tax profit 5% writedown of the foreign currency FY 2010 FY 2009 (7,012.2) (2,241.7) (883.2) (21,377.8) 24,657.3 19,040.3 55,077.4 16,319.6 (1,784.4) (11,217.9) (10.0) (7.7) (33.0) (2.7) (17,491.4) (11,562.1) 72,878.5 49,311.4 1,278.9 (2,094.3) 126,678.0 36,167.2 Impact on pre-tax profit 5% revaluation of the foreign currency FY 2010 FY 2009 7,750.3 2,477.7 976.1 23,628.1 (27,252.8) (21,044.6) (60,875.0) (18,037.5) 1,972.2 12,398.8 11.1 8.5 36.5 2.9 19,332.6 12,779.2 (80,550.0) (54,502.1) (1,413.5) 2,314.7 (140,012.5) (39,974.2)

Revaluation/Writedown foreign currency 5% -5%
Impact on pre-tax profit (140.0) 126.7
Impact on Shareholders equity (2,548.2) 1,314.1
The analysis did not include assets, liabilities and future commercial flows that were not hedged, since fluctuations in exchange rates impact income in an amount equal to what is recognised in the fair value of adopted hedge instruments.
Interest rate risk. The companys exposure to changes in interest rates is limited to an adjustable rate loan denominated in euros. Interest rate risk is hedged consistently with consolidated practice, which is designed to reduce the risks of interest rate volatility by simultaneously pursuing the aim of minimising associated financial expenses. Considering the insignificant amounts involved (Note 16), there were no current interest rate hedges current at December 31st 2010.The sensitivity analysis carried out on interest rates has shown that a hypothetically unfavourable change of 10% in short-term interest rates applicable to the adjustable rate financial liabilities existing at December 31st 2010 would have a net pre-tax impact of about 10 thousand euros in additional expenses (FY 2009: 26 thousand euros).
iv. Categories of measurement at fair value
In accordance with IFRS 7, the financial instruments carried at fair value have been classified according to a hierarchy of levels that reflects the materiality of the inputs used to estimate their fair value.The following levels have been defined: Level 1 quoted prices obtained on an active market for the measured assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs other than the quoted prices indicated hereinabove, which are observable either directly (prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) on the market; Level 3 inputs that are not based on observable market data. The fair value of derivative financial instruments existing at December 31st 2010 (Note 17) has been classified as Level 2.
19. Deferred tax assets and liabilities

At the reporting date, recognition of the effects of deferred tax assets, determined on the basis of temporary differences between the pre-tax result on the financial statements and taxable income, shows a net balance (liability) of 16,941 thousand euros (FY 2009: liability for 18,547 thousand euros):
Euro 000s Deferred tax assets Deferred tax liabilities Total 12.31.10 7,251 (24,192) (16,941) 12.31.09 3,119 (21,666) (18,547) Change 4,132 (2,526) 1,606
When determining future tax impact (IAS 12), reference was made to the presumed percentage weight of the taxes that will be imposed on income in the years when those taxes will be charged.The balance of deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31st 2010 is shown in the following table, highlighting those components that contributed to their formation:

21. Provisions and potential liabilities and assets

21.1 Provisions. They include euro 1,200 thousand (euro 665 thousand in 2009) as the prudent estimate of liabilities that the Group might incur if it loses a series of pending lawsuits.Accruals for the year are equal to 577 thousand euros, of which 42 thousand euros for use of the provisions existing at December 31st 2009. 21.2 Potential liabilities and other commitments
Guarantees granted to others. A total of euro 57,348 thousand in suretyships had been granted to others at
December 31st 2010 (euro 46,752 thousand in 2009) to secure the contractual commitments of subsidiaries.The amount of 55,053 thousand euros is comprised by bank credit lines provided to the subsidiaries, for which the company acts as guarantor (FY 2009: 44,827 thousand euros).
Guarantees received from others. The guarantees received from banks to cover their own contractual
commitments totalled euro 7,171 thousand (euro 6,571 thousand in 2009).

Mortgages. A first mortgage on a owned building (production plant in SantElpidio a Mare) for euro 30 million was granted to the lender for a loan received by the company (see Note 16). This mortgage secures the lent capital and all expenses deriving from the agreement. Other guarantees. Following the acquisition of Holpaf B.V. (note 11), TODS S.p.A. became guarantor (by
taking over from the previous guarantor for the contractual obligations assumed by Holpaf B.V.) in favour of the banks that subscribed the two non-convertible, amortised and fixed-rate bond loans (Intesa San Paolo and Socit Europenne de Banque), issued in 2006 by the subsidiary Holpaf B.V. to refinance the debt assumed to purchase the land and construction of the building in Omotesando,Tokyo. In detail, these covenants concern: a) Property Purchase Option: a put option granted to Intesa San Paolo on the Omotesando property, which may be exercised only if Holpaf B.V. defaults during the term of the bonds and the creditor demands payment of the mortgage. In this scenario,TODS S.p.A. must purchase the property at a specific price that varies over the term of the option (decreasing price, equal to the amount of the residual debt of the two bonds not repaid by Holpaf B.V. at the time of default). b) Earthquake Indemnity Letter;TODS S.p.A. has undertaken to hold harmless the rights to repayment of the bonds held by Intesa San Paolo and Socit Europenne de Banque even in the event of damage or destruction of the property in an earthquake; c) All Risks Indemnity Letter;TODS S.p.A. has undertaken to hold harmless the rights to repayment of the bonds held by Intesa San Paolo and Socit Europenne de Banque even in the event of damage or destruction of the property due to any event. At December 31st 2010, the residual face value of the principal for the two bonds amounted to JPY 4,238 million. 21.3 Derivative financial instruments. For a detailed analysis of derivative financial instruments, used for the coverage of transaction in foreign currency, please see Note 17. All derivative contracts made with leading financial institutions will expire in 2011.
21.4 Operating lease agreements. The operating leases entered into by the Company are for use of properties used to conduct its operating activities (offices, production plants). The amount of lease instalments payable after the reporting date pursuant to these agreements is as follows:
(Euro millions) 2010 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Over 5 years Total 4.3 3.7 2.6 2.4 2.3 2.0 17.3 2009 4.1 3.1 2.8 1.6 1.4 0.8 13.8
The operating lease instalments allocable to fiscal 2010 totalled 4.7 million euros (Fiscal 2009 4.8 millions euros).
22. Reserves for employees

Following changes in the law, beginning January 1st 2007 all amounts for employee severance indemnities (TFR, a deferred benefits plan in favour of company employees) accrued after that date are covered by the rules applicable to defined contribution plans.These no longer require actuarial calculation and discounting processes, since all of the businesss obligations to employees have ceased (1).The following table illustrates the changes in liabilities during year 2010:
(Euro millions) Year 10 Initial Balance Financial expenses Benefits paid Final Balance 8,158 321 (507) 7,972 Year 09 8,381 379 (602) 8,158
23. Transactions with related parties

In implementation of the Related Party Transactions Regulation adopted by CONSOB with Resolution no. 17221 of March 12th 2010, as amended by Resolution no. 17389 of June 23rd 2010, the TODS Group modified its existing procedures governing the transparency and substantive fairness of related party transactions, to bring them in line with the principles set out in the cited CONSOB Regulation. (The complete text of the Related Party Transactions Procedure of TODS S.p.A. can be found at www.todsgroup.com). The new related parties procedure was approved after receiving the favourable opinion of independent directors by the Board of Directors of the parent company on November 11th 2010 and came into force on January 1st 2011. However, in accordance with its own tradition of applying best practices on the market, before the new regulation issued by CONSOB came into force, the Group always subjected significant related party transactions to detailed investigation and, inter alia, the a priori favourable opinion of the Internal Control and Corporate
(1) The statutory amendment envisaged that for firms with more than 50 employees, the employee severance indemnities accrued from January 1st 2007 had to be allocated to supplemental retirement plans (pension funds) or, alternatively, to a Treasury Fund set up at the Istituto Nazionale di Previdenza Sociale (Italian National Social Security Institute).
Governance Committee (the committee that performed the relevant functions before the new regulation came into force). Consequently, significant related party transactions were previously subjected, and shall continue to be subjected in future, to a detailed investigation involving, inter alia: (i) a complete, prompt transmission of material information to the delegated Board of Directors committees (the Internal Control and Corporate Governance Committee and beginning January 1st 2011 the Independent Directors Committee, each within the ambit of their delegated responsibilities, where the majority or all members of these committees are independent directors), who in the performance of their functions also avail themselves of the assistance of independent experts; (ii) the issuance of an opinion (either binding or non-binding, as applicable) before approval of the transaction by the Board of Directors (or, if appropriate, by the body delegated to resolve on the transaction). Without prejudice to the principles of procedural fairness cited hereinabove, no unusual related party transactions, or other related party transactions that might compromise corporate assets or the completeness and fairness of Group accounting and other information were executed during the financial year. All transactions which are connected with the normal operations of TODS Group companies were executed solely on behalf of the Group by applying contractual conditions consistent with those that can theoretically be obtained on an arms length basis. Most significant transactions concluded during the period As previously described in note 11,TODS S.p.A. acquired the entire share capital of HOLPAF B.V. from Goral Investment Holding B.V., a Dutch company fully owned by Diego Della Valle & C. SAPA (a company owned by Diego and Andrea Della Valle, and controlled by Diego Della Valle) on November 25th 2010, after approval by the Board of Directors of TODS S.p.A., and after issuance of a favourable opinion by the Internal Control and Corporate Governance Committee (already in line with the CONSOB regulation that would enter into force on January 1st 2011, as previously mentioned). Through acquisition of the shareholding, the TODS Group acquired ownership of the Omotesando building (the companys sole asset).This building has been used entirely by the Group since 2005 under a lease agreement made on February 22nd 2005 by Tods Japan K.K. with HOLPAF B.V., as the seat for administrative offices and location for the most important flagship store of the TODS Group in Japan. The total price paid for acquisition of 100% of the shares of HOLPAF B.V. was JPY 230 million (equal to 2.1 million euros), considering the value of the pro-forma equity of the target company at September 30th 2010, the Japanese tax liability for the higher market value of the property as compared with its recognised tax cost, and the adjustment for differences between the net financial position of the acquired company at the closing date and its pro-forma net financial position at September 30th 2010. Pursuant to the agreement, the Group also fully repaid Goral Investment Holding B.V. for the shareholder loan previously made to HOLPAF B.V., in the amount of 20.6 million euros (principal and interest accrued at the share transfer date). For complete information about the transaction, please see the Disclosure drafted in compliance with the rules set out in the new Annex 3 of the Related Parties Regulation no. 17221/2010, which is also available on the corporate website www.todsgroup.com. Developments of related party transactions pending at December 31st 2009 In continuation of contractual relationships already existing in 2009, the TODS Group continued to maintain a series of contractual relationship with related parties (directors/controlling or significant shareholders) in 2010. The principal object of the transactions was the sale of products, lease of sales spaces, show rooms and offices, use of the ROGER VIVIER brand license and the provision of advertising services.

26. Income from equity investments

Just as in the previous financial year, the Company did not receive dividends from its subsidiaries.
27. Income taxes

The tax liability for fiscal 2010 (current and deferred) was 42.9 million euros, giving a tax rate of 34.1% (FY 2009: 32.7%). Income taxes for the period are broken down into current and deferred taxes, as follows:
Euro 000s Current taxes Deferred taxes Total Year 10 44,474 (1,607) 42,867 Year 09 32,723 2,212 34,935 Change 11,750 (3,819) 7,931
The theoretical tax rate for FY 2010 (the impact of theoretical taxes on pre-tax profit) was 33.6%, determined by applying the applicable tax rates for IRES (corporate income tax) and IRAP (regional tax on production activity) to the respective taxable bases as documented by the annual report at December 31st 2010.The following schedule reconciles theoretical taxes, calculated by using the theoretical tax rate of the parent company, and the taxes actually charged to income:
Euro 000s Taxes Theoretical income taxes Tax effect of non-deductible of partially deductible costs Non-deductible taxes Non taxable income Other Previous year taxes Effective income taxes 42,250 1,385 40 (252) (441) (116) 42,866 Rate % 33.6% 1.1% 0.0% (0.2%) (0.3%) (0.1%) 34.1%
Tax consolidation program. The company, exercising the option envisaged by the new version of the TUIR and the implementing decree pursuant to Article 129, together with the Italian subsidiaries that are presumably subject to a controlling relationship pursuant to Article 120 TUIR, decided to have the Group participate in the national tax consolidation program for IRES. According to this law,TODS S.p.A., as controlling company, has aggregated its income with that of the subsidiaries participating in the national tax consolidation program since fiscal 2004. It does so by fully offsetting all the positive and negative taxable amounts, thereby benefiting from any losses contributed by the subsidiaries and assuming the expenses transferred from those subsidiaries with positive taxable income. TODS S.p.A. essentially acts as a clearing house for taxable income (profits and losses) of all Group companies participating in the tax consolidation program, as well as financial relationships with revenue agency offices.At the same time, it recognizes liabilities or credits vis--vis those subsidiaries that produced tax losses and those that, on the contrary, transferred taxable income. Independently of the taxes that are paid, the companys net result is impacted exclusively by the income taxes accrued on its own taxable income.
28. Independent Auditors compensation

(Translation of the document issued in Italian solely for the convenience of international readers)
Dear Shareholders, In the year ended on December 31st, 2010, we discharged the supervisory tasks imposed under law, in accordance with the rules of conduct for the Board of Auditors as provided for by the Italian Board of Professional Accountants and Auditors, attending the meetings of corporate organs, carrying out periodic checks and meeting with the Independent Auditors managers, the Companys Internal Control managers and the Executive in charge of drawing up of the Companys accounting documents, to exchange information on the activities undertaken by them, and to assess the timetable of scheduled internal control operations.
