Scope effects amounted to €+359 million for revenue. This was mostly related to the acquisitions of
Syntel (2 months for €+142 million), SIX Payment Services (1 month for €+50 million), and CVC (12
months for €+73 million). Other effects were related to the acquisitions of Healthcare Consulting firms in
North America, Imakumo, Air Lynx and payment companies by Worldline on one side, and to the disposal
of some specific Unified Communication & Collaboration activities, Cheque Service and Paysquare
Belgium on the other side.
The following internal transfers occurred in 2018: (i) Diamis activities from Business & Platform Solutions
in France to Worldline, (ii) activities from Other Business Units to Germany, (iii) centralization of global
contracts with German clients from Other GBUs to Germany, and (iv) activities in Israel which were
consolidated in North America as part of Xerox ITO acquisition to Other Business Units.
IFRS 15 adjustment represented a restatement of 2017 accounts of €-695 million for revenue.

Currency exchange rates effects negatively contributed to revenue for €-242 million, mainly came from
the American dollar, the Argentina peso, the Brazillian real, the Turkish lira as well as the British pound
depreciating versus the Euro.
The impacts described above are reflected in the operating margin at constant scope and exchange rates.
In particular, scope effects amounted to €+52 million, and most of the impact came from the acquisitions
of Syntel (2 months for €+43 million), SIX Payment Services (1 month for €+6 million), and CVC (12
months for €-8 million). Currency exchange rates effects negatively contributed to operating margin for
€-37 million. These effects and internal transfer impacts are detailed below:

Infrastructure & Data Management revenue was € 6,328 million, down -2.8% at constant scope and
exchange rates, despite a significant growth in Cloud Services and in Digital Workplace fostered by the
transformation of existing classic infrastructures and workplace businesses. In line with the
transformation of the business model of the Division, revenue significantly grew in Hybrid Cloud
Orchestration, in Digital Workplace and in projects in Technology Transformation Services. Indeed, the
Division continued the digital transformation of its main clients through automation and robotization,
supporting growth in several geographies, notably in France, the United Kingdom, Iberia, Asia Pacific,
Central & Eastern Europe, and Middle East & Africa, while North America, Germany and Benelux & The
Nordics faced more challenging situations.
Growth materialized in the Public & Health sector, primarily in North America driven by increased
volumes and additional scope with Allscripts and the Texas Department of Information Resources, and in
Benelux through the ramp up of new contracts with Major Hospitals in Belgium and Dutch governmental
institutions. Despite the termination of the contract with Standard & Poor’s in North America, Financial
Services benefitted from strong commercial activity in the United Kingdom with the ramp up of the
significant contracts with Aviva and other major Insurance companies coupled with increased volumes
and projects with National Savings & Investments, and was sustained by increased business volumes
with a large bank in Hong Kong and new business opportunities in North America with CNA Financial
Corporation. Manufacturing, Retail & Transporation was impacted by the finalization of digitalization and
transformation projects for some large customers, such as Rheinmetall in Germany and Monsanto in
North America, combined with the end of the contract with Mariott International in North America. On the
opposite, France recorded a high performance thanks to the ramp up of new Hybrid Cloud contracts with
Safran and a global leader in Aerospace & Defense. The situation in Telco, Media & Utilities remained
challenging, impacted by scope reductions with BBC in the United Kingdom, reinsourced contract with
Microsoft in North America during the first half of the year, as well as lower volumes with Disney, and
finally contractual issues with a large telco operator in Germany.

revenue due to ending contracts and scope reductions, notably in North America and Germany. These
two georaphies monitored throughout the year a cost take-out to mitigate as much as possible the effects
on the profitability. The Division benefited from improved results posted in the United Kingdom and in the
Other Business Units.

Business & Platform Solutions revenue reached € 3,361 million, +4.2% at constant scope and exchange
rates, confirming a positive trend, after +2.5% in 2017. The sales dynamic was visible in most markets
with acceleration from the Atos Digital Transformation Factory, in particular, the activity within
Manufacturing, Retail & Transportation remained high thanks to the increased SAP HANA activities mainly
within automotive sector and Siemens in Germany, as well as ramp up of contracts notably in France with
PSA, and a new Hybrid Cloud programme with International Airlines Group in the United Kingdom. The
Financial Services sector benefitted from new business and increased volumes in the United Kingdom and
in Other Business Units. Within Public & Health, growth came from France fueled by larger volumes,
notably with Government agencies, as well as in Germany, which largely offset the base effect from the
Asian Games contract successfully delivered last year within Middle East & Africa. Telecom, Media &
Utilities sector was impacted in Germany and in Benelux & The Nordics due to lower volumes with large
telco operators which was compensated by the ramp up of several new contracts within Energy &
Utilities.

Revenue 895 799 12.0%
Revenue in Big Data & Cybersecurity was € 895 million, up +12.0% organically, maintaining a strong
performance all over the year and pulled by the extension of the Division’s markets both in terms of
industries served and geographies. In particular, growth was driven by Cybersecurity services where
customers’ investments are increasing to face more and more sophisticated cyberattacks. The activity
was strong in all main geographies, with main increasing volumes in the United Kingdom, France,
Benelux & the Nordics and Germany.
The performance was also driven by the strong commercial dynamics in Big Data, notably from higher
sales of Bullions notably in North America and large computer products, as well as increased projects in
France. High Performance Computing benefitted from new wins achieved in several geographies such as
South America, Benelux and India, which could not compensate for the base effect of significant
deliveries achieved last year in France with the CEA and GENCI as well as in the United Kingdom.
Mission critical systems grew thanks to solid performance recorded in Central Europe, which more than
offset the ramp down of projects in France and Iberia notably.

well as the benefits from the successful integration of CVC activities.

Revenue 1,674 1,576 6.3%
From a contributive perspective to Atos, Worldline revenue was € 1,674 million, improving by +6.3% at
constant scope and exchange rates, representing 13.7% of the Group revenue. Growth was led by
increased transactions volumes within Merchant Services and Financial Processing business lines and new
projects ramp up within Mobility & e-Transactional Services.
• Merchant Services grew by +4.2% organically and reached € 621 million. The growth mainly came
from Merchant Payment Services, which benefitted from increased transactions volumes, notably
through a strong momentum in India following the Demonetization Act and from positive business
trends in Continental Europe leading to higher volumes on international card transactions. The good
operational performance more than compensated for the temporary slow-down of Payment Terminal
Services and lower volumes in Omnichannel Payment Acceptance;
• Financial Processing reached € 773 million, up +7.6% organically. Account Payment division was the
main contributor with increased volumes, notably in Sepa payment transactions, Dutch iDeal scheme
and Instant and SWIFT payments, coupled with software license revenue linked to the newly signed
significant outsourcing contract with a large German bank. Strong growth in Acquiring Processing was
driven by dynamic activity in Italy combined with good volumes in authorizations in France and
Germany. Finally, Issuing Processing benefitted from continuous growth in internet payments,
whereas Digital Banking increased mainly thanks to the new projects in France;
• Mobility & e-Transactional Services revenue was € 280 million, up +7.4% organically. Growth was led
by Trusted Digitization, notably through the ramp up of various projects with French government
agencies and increased volumes in tax collection activities in Latin America. E-Consumer and Mobility
growth was driven by Connected Living business, essentially in Germany, combined with higher
volumes in Contact and Consumer Cloud activities in France.

Operating margin was € 293 million or 17.5% of revenue, improving by +80 basis points led by the
strong performance of Financial Processing, thanks to top line growth combined with the successful
implementation of equensWorldline costs synergies plan. Merchant Services operating margin benefitted
from transactions volume growth, continued productivity improvement and first results of synergies with
MRL Posnet, an Indian Company bought in 2017, which more than compensated for the decrease in
Terminal Services. Finally, Mobility & e-Transactional Services operating margin was as expected
impacted by base effect of pensions recorded last year, commercial litigations and build phase of recently
won contracts, while contributive margin from the additional revenue could partly compensate for these
effects.

evolution
Revenue 2,161 2,158 0.1%
In 2018, the Business Unit achieved a revenue organic growth stable compared to the same period last
year at constant scope and exchange rates, leading to € 2,161 million, with an increasing performance of
+1.1% posted in the fourth quarter. Growth was primarily fueled by new contracts in Business & Platform
Solutions as well as in Big Data & Cybersecurity, which compensated for lower performance in
Infrastructure & Data Management.
In Infrastructure & Data Management, revenue was affected by the ramp down of some legacy contracts,
as well as a base effect on transformation activities achieved in the previous year. The unit benefitted
from the ramp up of several new contracts notably in Manufacturing, Retail & Transportation, such as a
large car manufacturer in Germany, a global leader in Aerospace & Defense and Henkel; this
compensated for negative effects from transformation activities achieved in the previous year with
Rheinmetall. However, this could not compensate the impact from several legacy contracts primarily
materialized within Telecom, Media & Utilities, notably through the difficulties encountered with a large
telco operator, while Financial Services faced with lower volumes achieved with Deutsche Bank and lower
volumes with Siemens.
Business & Platform Solutions achieved a strong growth, primarily in Manufacturing, Retail &
Transportation and Public & Health with a double-digit growth. The unit continued to generate new digital
opportunities with a dynamic SAP activity, notably thanks to projects delivered to customers such as
Volkswagen and Kion Group. It also benefitted from the new Application management services with
Siemens. This largely offset the ramp down of a large telco operator and Nokia contracts affecting the
performance in the Telecom sector.
Big Data & Cybersecurity showed a solid momentum, led by Manufacturing, Retail & Transportation and
Financial Services sectors. The performance was achieved thanks to new business with a large car
manufacturer in Germany and Siemens.

Operating margin reached € 137 million, representing 6.3% of revenue, -270 basis points compared to
2017 at constant scope and exchange rates. Profitability grew significantly in Business & Platform
Solutions, driven by the strong revenue growth and continued workforce optimization, while within
Infrastructure & Data Management the performance was affected by the revenue decline, which could be
only slightly offset by costs optimization actions.
B.1.3.2 North America
North America
Organic
In €millio n 2018 2017*
evolution
Revenue 2,022 2,136 -5.3%
Revenue reached € 2,022 million, decreasing by -5.3% organically. The Business Unit achieved
significant growth in Business & Platform Solutions and Big Data & Cybersecurity activities, confirming
the progressive diversification trend of its portfolio as per previous quarters, but this could not
compensate for the effect from off-boarding contracts and reduced scope with some legacy customers in
Infrastructure & Data Management.
Revenue in Infrastructure & Data Management was affected by the termination and scope reduction of
two large contracts with legacy customers. Increased volumes were achieved within Public & Health,
mainly from Allscripts and Texas Department of Information Resources. However, this was not sufficient
to offset the adverse evolution in other sectors and primarily within Manufacturing, Retail &
Transportation. This market benefitted from the ramp up of contracts with new logos such as Enterprise
and WSP Global, but the overall performance was impacted by the termination of several legacy
contracts, notably with Marriott International. Within Telecom, Media & Utilities, the decrease was mainly
attributable to the impact from lower volumes with Disney and terminated contract with Microsoft.
Financial Services benefitted from the contribution of the new contract won with CNA Financial
Corporation, which however did not fully compensate for lower volumes with Standard & Poor’s global.
The Unit continued to increase its digital footprint through hybrid cloud solutions.
Business & Platform Services closed the year with a double digit growth, largely attributable to Public &
Health, which benefitted from the contribution of the new entities integrated last year, and notably fueled
by new logo within Healthcare area. The Unit also benefitted from a significant growth with Syntel,
positively impacting Manufacturing, Retail & Transportation and Financial Services markets.
Revenue in Big Data & Cybersecurity achieved a very strong growth, mainly within Manufacturing, Retail
& Transportation as well as Public & Health sectors. The performance was largely driven by a very strong
activity in Big Data, mainly thanks to increased Bullion sales.
Operating margin reached € 202 million, representing 10.0% of revenue, decreasing by -250 basis
points compared to last year. The Business Unit benefitted from revenue increase in Business & Platform
Solutions and Big Data & Cybersecurity, which maintained in total a double digit level of profitability
despite the effect from revenue in Infrastructure & Data Management, whose decline was too significant
to be compensated by a full cost take out in the year.

B.1.3.3 France
France
Organic
In €millio n 2018 2017*
evolution
Revenue 1,710 1,665 2.7%
At € 1,710 million, revenue in France improved by +2.7% organically. The performance of the Business
Unit was driven by Infrastructure & Data Management thanks to a continued solid performance over the
year.
Infrastructure & Data Management achieved a strong organic growth, primarily thanks to the strong
performance achieved within Manufacturing, Retail & Transportation, where the growth came notably
from new business and the ramp up of several contracts such as Safran and a global leader in Aerospace
& Defense through the Hybrid Cloud increasing business. Growth also came from Financial Services with
notably the ramp up of the Axa contract. This was partly offset by Public & Health, due to the base effect
in the Escala area in the Public sector. Telecom, Media & Utilities was also impacted by some terminations
of legacy contracts, but could offset them by higher volumes through Hybrid Cloud business with large
customers.
Business & Platform Solutions posted a solid growth, mainly driven by increasing business in the Digital
and Hybrid Cloud projects. Growth came primarily from Public & Health driven by higher volumes with
municipalities and regions and from new contracts through UGAP (national IT procurement department)
in the Digital Workplace area. Manufacturing, Retail & Transportation market showed a sustained activity
as well, attributable to the ramp up with PSA. Telecom, Media & Utilities benefitted from Atos Codex
projects with large companies such as Orange and EDF, while Financial Services remained stable.
Big Data & Cybersecurity was down organically, largely concentrated in Public & Health due to the base
effect from significant successful sales of High Performance Computing Solutions with CEA and Genci last
year. This was partly compensated thanks to new contracts signed such as Peugeot in High Performance
Computer, combined with renewals or extensions with EDF and CNAF, as well as significant growth in
Managed Security Services, and a good performance in Financial Services.
Operating margin reached € 150 million, representing 8.8% of revenue. Business & Platform Solutions
increased its operating margin, driven by a strong monitoring of productivity. This was not enough to
compensate for Infrastructure & Data Management and Big Data & Cybersecurity impacted by an
unfavorable business mix.

B.1.3.4 United Kingdom & Ireland

Organic
In €millio n 2018 2017*
evolution
Revenue 1,612 1,600 0.7%
Revenue was € 1,612 million, up +0.7% at constant scope and exchange rates. Growth was primarily
derived from the strong dynamism of Business & Platform Solutions. Across the Business Unit, continued
efforts to renew the portfolio more than compensated for the partial scope reinsourcing of BBC following
the contract renewal achieved in April 2017 and scope reduction in Ministry of Justice.
Infrastructure & Data Management remained slightly positive over the year thanks to a strong
performance achieved within Financial Services, where the growth came from increased volumes and
projects with National Savings & Investments, coupled with the ramp up of the new contracts with Aviva,
a large US commercial broadcast television and radio network and a pension, insurance and investment
Company in the United Kingdom. This more than compensated for lower volumes from legacy customers
in Telecom, Media & Utilities, due to contractual scope reductions with BBC, as well as in Manufacturing,
Retail & Transportation impacted by the ramp down of legacy contracts, which were partly mitigated by
the ramp up of new contracts won since the end of last year, such as International Airlines Group. Within
Public & Health, the ramp down of legacy contracts and base effect from transitions successfully achieved
last year such as Ministry of Justice were partially offset by the contribution of significant new contracts
won with University College London Hospitals, DECC NDA and DEFRA.
Business & Platform Solutions pursued its positive trend thanks to continued demand for digital projects,
notably related to SAP HANA and Orchestrated Hybrid Cloud solutions which materialized in all markets
but Telecom, Media & Utilities, notably affected by contractual reduction with BBC. Growth in
Manufacturing, Retail & Transportation Sector and Financial Services derived from strong sales dynamics
combined with the contribution from large contracts won last year such as a pension, insurance and
investment Company and a building Society both in the United Kingdom. Public & Health benefitted from
increased volumes with legacy customers which largely compensated for a ramp down with an industrial
French Group.
The decrease in Big Data & Cybersecurity was largely attributable to Public and Health market with a
significant reduction in HPC activities following successful sales and deliveries achieved last year. This
was partly compensated by increasing cybersecurity sales notably within the Manufacturing, Retail &
Transportation sector such as International Airlines Group.
Operating margin was € 193 million and represented 11.9% of the revenue, an improvement of +60
basis points compared to last year at constant scope and exchange rate. The profitability increased in
Infrastructure & Data Management and Big Data & Cybersecurity, driven by improved revenue mix
combined with increased operational efficiency through continued tight project management and strong
actions to optimize the cost base. It largely compensated for the decrease in Business & Platform
Solutions coming from a significant pension one-off recorded last year.

Organic
In €millio n 2018 2017*
evolution
Revenue 1,017 1,018 -0.1%
At € 1,017 million, 2018 revenue was roughly stable organically.

In Infrastructure & Data Management, revenue slightly decreased organically. Growth was posted mainly
in Public & Health sector thanks to higher volumes achieved with Dutch Government Institutions, as well
as Dutch University Hospitals. The situation remained more challenging in the other markets such as in
Financial Services sector which was affected by a negative impact of declining volumes with Achmea and
VGZ.
Business & Platform Solutions was decreasing organically, showing a decline within Systems Integration
representing more than half of the Division as well as Technology Services which are local to local
business, facing a lower demand, notably in the Public & Health sector. Financial Services posted a
positive organic growth while Manufacturing, Retail & Transportation remained stable organically. This
was not enough to compensate for the ramp down in Telecom, Media & Utilities, mainly attributable to
the lower level of projects with KPN coupled with decreasing volumes with several customers.
Big Data & Cybersecurity pursued its development and recorded a strong organic growth, driven by
various sales in Manufacturing, Retail & Transportation and Financial Services sectors, from both High-
Performance Computing and Cybersecurity activities. Public & Health benefitted from the ramp up of
Dutch Government Institutions and the European Union.
Operating margin reached € 76 million, representing 7.5% of revenue, below last year by -170 basis
points at constant scope and exchange rates. Infrastructure & Data Management and Business & Platform
Solutions profitability were affected by a revenue decline, while Big Data & Cybersecurity was still in a
process of investing in business development and presales activity to further accelerate top line growth.

Revenue 2,061 1,961 5.1%
Revenue in “Other Business Units” reached € 2,061 million, up +5.1% organically, fueled by activity in
all Divisions and especially in Big Data & Cybersecurity.
Infrastructure & Data Management posted a growth in almost all Markets. Telecom, Media & Utilities
expanded, driven by the contracts ramp up with an international telecommunications provider in Middle
East & Africa and business opportunities in Italy, Czech Republic and Iberia. Financial Services benefitted
from higher volumes with a large bank in Hong-Kong and with its Austrian customers. Finally, Public
Sector slightly grew, notably thanks to the ramp up of the Western Australian Government migration to
Canopy Orchestrated Hybrid Cloud. This compensated for the volume reductions in Manufacturing in
Central Europe and decrease in Unified Communication & Collaboration in South America.
Business & Platform Solutions revenue continued to grow in almost all markets as well. In particular,
Telecom, Media & Utilities posted a double-digit growth, fueled by increased volumes and new contracts
in Continental Europe, notably with Italian large accounts, as well as with Austrian and Romanian clients,
coupled with the ramp up of a significant contract with an Indian oil company. The increase in Financial
Services was driven notably by the ramp up of contracts in Banking sector in Iberia and Brazil, while
Manufacturing, Retail & Transportation grew mainly in South America thanks to new contracts and
additional volumes. This could fully compensate for the end of the last phase of the Asian Games contract
last year.
Big Data & Security enjoyed a double-digit growth benefitting from new HPC opportunities in South
America and Asia Pacific, sustained by higher project activity in Central Europe, compensating for
comparison basis in Africa where significant HPC sales were achieved last year.
Operating margin was € 275 million, representing 13.4% of revenue, improving by +180 basis points
compared to 2017 at constant scope and exchange rates. Margin mainly benefitted from the contribution
of the revenue growth, primarily in Infrastructure & Data Management and in Big Data & Security, from
the successful CVC integration and from a tight monitoring of costs across all the Other Business Units.
Productivity improvement in Global Delivery Centers (reported in Other Business Units) also supported
the operating margin improvement.
B.1.3.7 Global structure costs
Global structures costs reached €-66 million, decreasing by € 13 million compared to 2017 at constant
scope and exchange rates, reflecting the continued efforts on internal costs optimization in most
functions as well as on third party costs.

increase is mainly coming from the strong performance recorded within the Big Data & Cybersecurity
Division as well as the good performance in France with EDF and in Germany with Deutsche Telekom
which have compensated the ramp down of large contracts such as a large telco operator in Germany
and BBC in the United Kingdom.
Main clients were EDF, Orange, Telefonica/O2, Nokia, BBC, Deutsche Telekom, The Walt Disney

Income and expenses are presented in the Consolidated Income Statement by nature to reflect the
specificities of the Group’s business more accurately. Below the line item presenting revenues, ordinary
operating expenses are broken down into staff expenses and other operating expenses.
These two items together are deducted from revenues to obtain operating margin, one of the main Group
business performance indicators.
Operating margin represents the underlying operational performance of the on-going business and is
analyzed in detail in the operational review.

B.4.1.2 Other operating income and expenses
Other operating income and expenses relate to income and expenses that are unusual, abnormal and
infrequent and represented a net expense of € 424 million in 2018. The following table presents this

Amortization of intangible assets (PPA from acquisitions) -128 -109
Equity based compensation -52 -86
Other items -43 -59
Total -424 -417
The € 79 million staff reorganization expense was mainly the consequence of the adaptation of the
Group workforce in several countries such as Germany, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. A
significant staff reorganization was implemented in North America, however with more limited costs
compared to other countries.
The € 38 million rationalization and associated costs primarily resulted from the closure of office
premises and data centers consolidation, mainly in France, Germany and North America.
Integration and acquisition costs mainly relate to the acquisition and integration costs of new
acquired companies. Syntel, SIX Payment Services and equensWorldline acquisition and integration costs
amount to € 52 million while the other costs relate to the migration and standardization of internal IT
platforms of earlier acquisitions.
The 2018 amortization of intangible assets recognized in the Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) of
€ 128 million was mainly composed of:
• € 22 million of SIS customer relationships amortized over 4 to 12 years starting July 1, 2011;
• € 19 million of Xerox ITO customer relationships amortized over 6 to 12 years starting July 1, 2015;
• € 18 million of Unify customer relationships and technologies amortized over 2 to 10 years starting
February 1, 2016;
• € 16 million of Bull customer relationships and patents amortized over respectively 9 years and 7 to
10 years starting September 1, 2014;
• € 11 million of Syntel customer relationships and technologies amortized over 12 years starting
November 1, 2018;
• € 10 million of Equens and Paysquare customer relationships amortized over 6.5 to 9.5 years starting
October 1, 2016;
• € 4 million of SIX Payment Services customer relationships, technologies and patents amortized over
6 to 19 years starting December 1, 2018.
The equity-based compensation expense amounted to € 52 million compared to € 86 million in 2017,

in particular due to a lower erformance in 2018.
In 2018, the Group strongly decreased the amount of other items from € 59 million to € 43 million
facing less exceptional expenses related to cyberattacks, the implantation of GDPR or settlement of
litigations. The € 43 million expenses this year corresponded mainly to semi retirement schemes in
Germany and France.

B.4.1.3 Net financial expense
Net financial expense amounted to € 87 million for the period (compared to € 62 million prior year) and
was composed of a net cost of financial debt of € 31 million and non-operational financial costs of € 56
million.
Net cost of financial debt was € 31 million (compared to € 24 million in 2017) and resulted from the
following elements:
• the average gross borrowing of € 3,330 million compared to € 2,190 million in 2017 bearing an
average expense rate of 1.25% compared to 1.49% last year. The average gross borrowing expenses
were mainly explained by :
o the used portion of the syndicated loan combined with the Negotiable EUropean Commercial
Papers (NEU CP) and the Negotiable EUropean Medium Term Note program (NEU MTN) for an
average of € 1,239 million (compared to an average of € 1,103 million in 2017) bearing an
effective interest rate of 0.28%, benefiting from the attractive remuneration applied to the
NEU CP;
o a € 600 million bond issued in July 2015 bearing a coupon rate of 2.375%;
o a € 300 million bond issued in October 2016 bearing a coupon rate of 1.444%;
o a € 700 million bond issued in November 2018 bearing a coupon rate of 0.750%;
o a $ 1,900 million 3 and 5 year term loan signed in October 2018 drawn in $ and € at variable
rate partially repaid in December for an amount of $ 200 million bearing an average effective
interest rate of around 1.78%;
o other sources of financing, including securitization, for an average of € 194 million, bearing
an effective interest rate of 2.60%.
• the average gross cash varied from € 1,339 million in 2017 to € 1,313 million in 2018 bearing an
average income rate of 0.80% compared to 0.67% in 2017.
Non-operational financial costs amounted to € 56 million compared to € 38 million in 2017 and were
mainly composed of pension related interest (broadly stable compared to € 30 million expense in 2017)
and a net foreign exchange gain (including hedges) of € 5 million versus a net foreign exchange loss
(including hedges) of € 3 million in 2017 and the SIX Payment Services contingent consideration variance
for € -18 million. The pension financial cost represented the difference between interest costs on pension
obligations and interest income on plan assets.
B.4.1.4 Corporate tax
The Group effective tax rate is 6.3% for 2018 corresponding to a tax charge of € 47 million with a profit
before tax of € 749 million.
It includes the recognition of deferred tax assets for € 90 million inherited from the Bull acquisition, due
to the significant growth of digital transformation activities including cloud.
Excluding this positive effect of € 90 million, the effective tax rate would be at 18.3% comparable to last
year.
B.4.1.5 Non-controlling interests
Non-controlling interests included shareholdings held by joint venture partners and other associates of
the Group. Non-controlling interests amounted to € 73 million in December 2018 (compared to
€ 64 million in December 2017). This increase was mostly related to the improved performance of
Worldline.

B.4.1.6 Normalized net income
The normalized net income attributable to owners of the parent is defined as net income attributable to
owners of the parent excluding unusual, abnormal, and infrequent items (attributable to owners of the
parent) net of tax based on effective tax rate by country. In 2018, the normalized net income attributable
to owners of the parent was € 907 million, increasing by 4.7% compared to previous year.

B.4.2 Cash Flow
Free cash flow representing the change in net cash or net debt, excluding net acquisitions/disposals,
equity changes, and dividends paid to shareholders, reached € 658 million, or € 720 million excluding
acquisition and upfront financing costs related to Syntel and SIX Payment Services acquisitions, versus
€ 714 million achieved in 2017.

Cash from Operations (CFO) amounted to € 1,051 million, stable compared to prior year. This resulted
from the change of the three following components:
• OMDA (€-7 million) ;
• Capital expenditures (€ +50 million) ;
• Change in working capital requirement (€-49 million).

OMDA of € 1,601 million represented 13.1% of revenue, compared to 13.4% of restated revenue of last
year:

OMDA 1,601 1,608
Capital expenditures amounted to € 476 million or 3.9% of the revenue compared to € 526 million in
2017. The Group continued to invest, especially in its infrastructure business, in particular in Cloud
architectures as well as in its payment platforms within Worldline.
The working capital requirement increased by € 74 million. The DSO ratio reached 43 days compared
to 39 days at the end of December 2017. Further to IFRS 15 implementation, the calculation of the DSO
takes into account the resale transactions receivables on which related revenue is recognized on a net
basis (net of suppliers costs) while it does not take into account the gross revenue related to these
transactions. The impact from this restatement at the end of 2017 amounts to 4 days. As a result, the
post IFRS 15 DSO is structurally slightly higher than the underlying customer billing terms and payment
terms. DSO has been positively impacted by the sale of receivables with no recourse on large customer
contracts by 23 days, stable compared to December 2017. As of December 31, 2018, € 894 million of
trade receivables were sold with no recourse to banks with transfer of risks as defined by IFRS 9 (€ 858
million as of December 31, 2017) and were therefore derecognized in the Statement of Financial Position
as of December 31, 2018.
Cash out related to tax paid reached € 130 million, in line with last year.
The cost of net debt reached € 31 million compared to € 24 million in 2017. This was mainly explained
by the new financing structure due to Syntel acquisition since October 2018.
Reorganization, rationalization and associated costs, and integration and acquisition costs
reached € 189 million compared to € 157 million in 2017, significantly impacted by major acquisitions
(Syntel, SIX Payment Services and equensWorldline) for € 53 million. Excluding those exceptional costs,
those costs reached circa 1% of revenue in line with the Group policy.
Other changes amounted to €-43 million, compared to € -30 million in 2017. Excluding € 31 million of
upfront and underwriting fees paid for the acquisition of Syntel, other changes amounted to € 12 million,
mainly related to expenses of semi retirement schemes in Germany and France and payments related to
2017 litigations settlements mainly in UK.
As a result, the Group Free Cash Flow (FCF) generated during the year 2018 was € 658 million, or
€ 720 million excluding acquisition and upfront financing costs related to Syntel and SIX Payment
Services acquisitions.
The net debt impact resulting from acquisitions net of disposals amounted to € 3,644 million and
corresponded mainly to the acquisitions of Syntel for € 3,116 million (including acquired net debt/cash),
SIX Payment Services for € 503 million (including acquired net debt/cash and the contingent
consideration valuation).
Capital increase totaled € 22 million in 2018 compared to € 38 million in 2017, reflecting proceeds from
stock options exercised (old equity-based compensation plans).
Share buy-back was implemented in 2018 for € 102 million in order to deliver performance shares with
no dilution for shareholders.
The Group distributed a dividend of € 1.70 per share on 2017 results. The cash component (excluding
option in shares) amounted to € 68 million.
Foreign exchange rate fluctuation determined on debt or cash exposure by country represented a
decrease in net cash of €-34 million, mainly coming from the exchange rate of the Euro against British
pound, Brazilian real, Argentinian peso and US dollar.

As a result, the Group net debt position was € 2,872 million at the end of December 2018, compared
to a net cash position of € 307 million at the end of December 2017.
B.4.3 Financing policy

Atos has implemented a strict financing policy which is reviewed by the Group Audit Committee, with the
objective to secure and optimize the Group’s liquidity management. Each decision regarding external
financing is approved by the Board of Directors. Under this policy, all Group treasury activities, including
cash management, short-term investments, hedging and foreign exchange transactions, as well as off
balance sheet financing through operating leases, are centrally managed through the Group Treasury
department. Following a cautious short term financial policy, the Group did not make any short-term cash
investment in risky assets.
B.4.3.1 Financing structure
Atos’ policy is to fully cover its expected liquidity requirements by long-term committed loans or other
appropriate long-term financial instruments. Terms and conditions of these loans include maturity and
covenants leaving sufficient flexibility for the Group to finance its operations and expected developments.
On December 20, 2018, Worldline signed with a number of major financial institutions a five-year
revolving credit facility for an amount of € 0.6 billion maturing in December 2023, with an option for
Worldline to request the extension of the maturity date until December 2025. The facility is available for
general corporate purposes. The revolving credit facility includes one financial covenant which is the
leverage ratio (net debt divided by Operating Margin before Depreciation and Amortization) which may
not be greater than 2.5 times.
On November 5, 2018, Atos announced the successful placement of its € 1.8 billion bond issue. The € 1.8
billion triple tranche bond issue consists of three tranches:
• € 700 million notes with a 3.5 year maturity and 0.75 % coupon
• € 350 million notes with a 10 year maturity and 2.50 % coupon

There are no financial covenants. The rating agency Standard and Poor’s has assigned a rating of BBB+
to the three tranches, subsequently to the rating of Atos described herebelow.
On October 22, 2018, the rating agency Standard and Poor’s has assigned a rating of BBB+ to Atos
recognizing the strong investment grade profile of the Group.
On October 11, 2018, Atos signed with a number of major financial institutions a five-year € 2.4 billion
revolving credit facility (the Facility) maturing in November 2023 with an option for Atos to request the
extension until November 2025. The Facility is available for general corporate purposes and replaces the
existing € 1.8 billion facility signed in November 2014. The Facility includes one financial covenant which
is the leverage ratio (net debt divided by Operating Margin before Depreciation and Amortization) which
may not be greater than 2.5 times.
On October 9, 2018, Atos drew a bridge loan of $ 1.9 billion for the acquisition of Syntel. The bridge loan
was fully reimbursed on November 9, 2018.
On October 9, 2018, Atos drew a term loan of $ 1.9 billion for the acquisition of Syntel. The term loan
was composed of a 3-year $ 1.1 billion loan and a 5-year $ 0.8 billion loan. The term loan issuance by
currency was $ 0.6 billion equivalent euros and $ 1.3 billion in USD. On December 14, 2018, Atos
reimbursed $ 200 million out of the loan drawn in USD.
The $ 1.9 billion term loan includes one financial covenant which is the leverage ratio (net debt divided
by Operating Margin before Depreciation and Amortization) which may not be greater than 2.5 times.
On May 4, 2018 Atos implemented a Negotiable European Medium Term Note program (NEU MTN) in
order to optimize financial expenses and improve Group liquidity management, for an initial maximum
amount of € 600 million.
On June 2, 2017, Atos implemented a Negotiable European Commercial Paper program (NEU CP) in order
to optimize financial expenses and improve Group liquidity management, for an initial maximum amount
of € 900 million raised to € 1.8 billion in October 2018.

On September 29, 2016, Atos issued a Euro private placement bond of € 300 million with a seven-year
maturity and with a 1.444% fixed interest rate (unrated). There are no financial covenants.
On July 2, 2015 Atos issued a bond of € 600 million with a five-year maturity. The coupon rate is 2.375%
(unrated). There are no financial covenants.
Atos securitization program of trade receivables has been renewed for 5 years on May 29, 2018 with a
maximum amount of receivables sold of € 500 million and a maximum amount of financing reduced from
€ 200 million to € 100 million. The program has been restricted to two French participant entities.
The program is still structured with two compartments, called ON and OFF:
• compartment “ON” is similar to the previous program (i.e. the receivables are maintained in the
Group balance sheet) which remains by default the compartment in which the receivables are sold.
This compartment was used at its lowest level;
• compartment “OFF” is designed so the credit risk (insolvency and overdue) of the debtors eligible to
this compartment of the program is fully transferred to the purchasing entity of a third party financial
institution.
As of December 31, 2018, the Group has sold:
• in the compartment “ON” € 85.2 million receivables for which € 5.9 million were received in cash. The
sale is with recourse, thus re-consolidated in the balance sheet;
• in the compartment “OFF” € 33.1 million receivables which qualify for de-recognition as substantially
all risks and rewards associated with the receivables were transferred.
The Atos securitization program includes one financial covenant which is the leverage ratio (net debt
divided by Operating Margin before Depreciation and Amortization) which may not be greater than 2.5.
B.4.3.2 Bank covenants
The Group was well within its borrowing covenant (leverage ratio) applicable to the multi-currency
revolving credit facility, the $ 1.9 billion term loan and the securitization program, with a leverage ratio
(net debt divided by OMDA) of 1.54 at the end of December 2018.
According to the credit documentation of the multi-currency revolving credit facility, the $ 1.9 billion term
loan and the securitization program, the leverage ratio is calculated on a proforma basis, taking into
account full year OMDA 2018 for Syntel and Six Payment Services.
The leverage ratio must not be greater than 2.5 times under the terms of the multi-currency revolving
credit facility, the $ 1.9 billion term loan and the securitization program.
B.4.3.3 Investment policy
Atos has a policy to lease its office space and data processing centers. Some fixed assets such as IT
equipment and company cars may be financed through leases. The Group Treasury department evaluates
and approves the type of financing for each new investment.
B.4.3.4 Hedging policy
Atos’ objective is also to protect the Group against fluctuations in interest rates by swapping to fixed rate
a portion of the existing floating-rate financial debt. Authorized derivative instruments used to hedge the
debt are swap contracts, entered into with leading financial institutions and centrally managed by the
Group Treasury department. The Group has entered into interest rate swaps in 2018.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements
Appointment of the Statutory Auditors
We have been appointed as statutory auditors of the Company by your General Shareholders’ meetings
held on December 16, 1993 for Deloitte & Associés, and on October 31, 1990 for Grant Thornton.
As at December 31, 2018, Deloitte & Associés was in its 25 th year mandate, of total uninterrupted
engagement, and for Grant Thornton in its 28 th year mandate, total uninterrupted engagement, and for
both statutory auditors, on 23 years of exercise of mandate since the Company securities were admitted
to trading on a regulated market.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated
Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial
statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European
Union, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of
consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless it is expected to liquidate the Company
or to cease operations.
The Audit Committee is responsible for monitoring the financial reporting process and the effectiveness of
internal control and risks management systems and where applicable, its internal audit, regarding the
accounting and financial reporting procedures.
The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors.
Statutory Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Objectives and audit approach
Our role is to issue a report on the consolidated financial statements. Our objective is to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with professional standards will always detect a material misstatement
when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or
in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken
on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As specified in Article L. 823-10-1 of the French Commercial Code (code de commerce), our statutory
audit does not include assurance on the viability of the Company or the quality of management of the
affairs of the Company.
As part of an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards applicable in France, the
statutory auditor exercises professional judgment throughout the audit and furthermore:

• Identifies and assesses the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error, designs and performs audit procedures responsive to those risks, and
obtains audit evidence considered to be sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for his opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting
from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control.
• Obtains an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the internal control.
• Evaluates the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management in the consolidated financial statements.
• Assesses the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and,
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
This assessment is based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of his audit report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. If the
statutory auditor concludes that a material uncertainty exists, there is a requirement to draw
attention in the audit report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if
such disclosures are not provided or inadequate, to modify the opinion expressed therein.
• Evaluates the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements and assesses whether
these statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair
presentation.
• Obtains sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or
business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements.
The statutory auditor is responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the
consolidated financial statements and for the opinion expressed on these consolidated financial
statements.
Report to the Audit Committee
We submit a report to the Audit Committee which includes in particular a description of the scope of the
audit and the audit program implemented, as well as the results of our audit. We also report, if any,
significant deficiencies in internal control regarding the accounting and financial reporting procedures that
we have identified.
Our report to the Audit Committee includes the risks of material misstatement that, in our professional
judgment, were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current
period and which are therefore the key audit matters, that we are required to describe in this report.
We also provide the Audit Committee with the declaration provided for in Article 6 of Regulation (EU) N°
537/2014, confirming our independence within the meaning of the rules applicable in France such as they
are set in particular by Articles L.822-10 to L.822-14 of the French Commercial Code (code de
commerce) and in the French Code of Ethics (code de déontologie) for statutory auditors. Where
appropriate, we discuss with the Audit Committee the risks that may reasonably be thought to bear on
our independence, and the related safeguards.

B.5.7 Notes to the consolidated financial statements
B.5.7.1 General information
Atos SE, the Group’s parent company, is a société européenne (public limited company) incorporated under French
law, whose registered office is located at 80, Quai Voltaire, 95870 Bezons, France. It is registered with the
Registry of Commerce and Companies of Pontoise under the reference 323623603. Atos SE shares are traded on
the NYSE Euronext Paris market under ISIN code FR0000051732. The shares are not listed on any other stock
exchange. The Company is administrated by a Board of Directors.
The consolidated financial statements of the Group for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 comprise the
Group and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”) and the Group’s interests in associates and jointly
controlled entities.
These consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on February 20, 2019. The
consolidated financial statements will then be submitted to the approval of the General Meeting of Shareholders
scheduled to take place on April 30, 2019.
B.5.7.2 Basis of preparation and significant accounting policies
Basis of preparation
Pursuant to European Regulation No. 1606/2002 of July 19, 2002, the consolidated financial statements for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2018 have been prepared in accordance with the applicable international
accounting standards, as endorsed by the European Union as at December 31, 2018. The international standards
comprise the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board (IASB), the International Accounting Standards (IAS), the interpretations of the Standing
Interpretations Committee (SIC) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC).
Accounting policies applied by the Group comply with those standards and interpretations.
As of December 31, 2018, the accounting standards and interpretations endorsed by the European Union are
similar to the compulsory standards and interpretations published by the International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB). Consequently, the Group’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the
IFRS standards and interpretations, as published by the IASB. Except the impacts of IFRS 15 and IFRS 9
implementations separately disclosed, the other new standards, interpretations or amendments whose application
was mandatory for the Group effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018 had no material impact on the
consolidated financial statements:
• Amendment to IFRS 2 – Share based payments classification and measurement of share-based payment
transactions.
• Amendments to IFRS 4 – Insurance contacts, regarding implementation of IFRS 9.
• Amendement to IAS 40 – Investement property regarding the transfer of property.
• Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2014–2016- Cycle – various standards.
• IFRIC 22 – Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration.
Changes in accounting policies

IFRS 15
IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is
recognized. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction
Contracts and related interpretations. The Group has adopted IFRS 15 using the full retrospective method.
Accordingly, the information presented for 2017 has been restated.
Principal versus agent
The Group has performed an analysis of the nature of its relationship with its customers to determine if it is acting
as principal or as an agent in the delivery of its contracts when the Group is reselling hardware, software or IT
services. Under IAS 18, the Group used to apply a risks and rewards analysis to determine whether it was acting
as principal or as an agent in a transaction. Under IFRS 15, the Group is considered as acting as principal if it
controls goods and services before delivering them to the client by exercizing judgments that are further disclosed
in Note 3.

Identification of the performance obligations in the multiple arrangements services contracts
Contracts delivered by Infrastructure & Data Management and Business & Platform Solutions Divisions often
embed transition and transformation phases prior to delivery of recurring services. The new standard clarifies the
treatment of such activities performed before delivering recurring services.
Under IFRS 15, when such transition and transformation phases represent standalone added value to the
customer resulting in a transfer of control and are considered as distinct performance obligations, then revenue
relating to those phases can be recognized. When this is not the case, costs incurred on those phases have to be
capitalized when criteria required are met and amortized over the life of the contracts; the cash collected for such
phases would have to be considered as advance payment. Under IAS 18, Atos Group used to recognize revenue on
some transition phases when the Group had right to be paid for the work performed to date. Under IFRS 15, all
transition phases are now capitalized, presented as contract costs and amortized over the life of the contract. This
restatement is not material at Group level.
Financial impacts at Group level
2017 revenue under IFRS 15 decreased by € 695 million compared to the revenue recognized in accordance with
IAS 18 and mostly relates to the agent versus principal restatement. The cumulative effect in equity as of January
1, 2017 is nil.
IFRS 9
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The Group
elected not to present a comparative restated period as permited under IFRS 9.
Classification of Financial assets
IFRS 9 defines a new classification and measurement approach for financial assets. There are three principal
classification categories for financial assets: measured at amortized cost, Fair Value through OCI (FVOCI), Fair
Value through Profit & Loss. Those new classification requirements have no material impact on the Group’s
accounting for trade receivables, loans and cash and cash equivalent.
Impairment of financial assets and contract assets
IFRS 9 introduces a new forward-looking “expected loss” impairment model that replaces the existing “incurred
loss” impairment model.
For trade receivables including contract assets, the Group applied the IFRS 9 simplified approach. Therefore,
impairment requirement at January 1, 2018 had no material impact.
The cash and cash equivalents are held with bank and financial institution counterparties, majority of which are
rated from A- to AA-. The estimated impairment on cash and cash equivalent is calculated based on the current
default probability and is not material.
Hedge accounting
For hedge accounting, the Group has elected to apply the new requirements of IFRS 9.
The Group uses forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge the variability in cash flows arising from changes in
foreign exchanges rates relating to foreign currency sales and purchases.
The Group designates only the spot element of the forward exchange contract as the hedging instrument in cash
flow hedging relationships for highly probable transactions. Under IAS 39, the change in fair value of the forward
element of the forward exchange contracts is recognized immediately in profit and loss.
On adoption of IFRS 9 requirements, the Group has elected to separately account for the forward points as a cost
of hedging. Consequently, the changes in forward points will be recognized in other comprehensive income and
accumulated in a cost of hedging reserve as a separate component within equity and accounted for subsequently
as gain and losses accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve as part of the underlying covered transaction.
The impact on reserves and retained earnings at January 1, 2018 as result of the application of IFRS 9 hedge
accounting requirements is a decrease in reserves and retained earnings and an increase in other comprehensive
income by € 6 million.

Other standards
The Group does not apply IFRS standards and interpretations that have not been yet approved by the European
Union at the closing date. A number of new standards are effective for annual periods beginning after January 1st,
2019 and an earlier application is permitted. The Atos Group has not early applied those amended standards in
preparing these consolidated statements. Except for IFRS 16, Atos group does not anticipate any significant
impact from the implementation of those new standards:
• IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Tax Treatments;
• Amendments to IFRS 9 - Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation;
• Amendments to IAS 28 - Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures;
• Amendments to IAS 19 – Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement;
• Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2015–2017 Cycle – various standards;
• Amendments to References to Conceptual Framework in IFRS Standards;
• IFRS 17 - Insurance Contracts.
IFRS 16
IFRS 16 replaces existing leases guidance IAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a
Lease, SIC 15 Operating Leases-Incentives and SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the
Legal Form of a Lease. IFRS 16 introduces a single on-balance sheet lease accounting model for lessees. Atos
Group, as a lessee, will have to recognize a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset
and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments.
The Group will apply IFRS 16 initially on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective approach. Therefore,
the cumulative effect of adopting IFRS 16 will be recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained
earnings at January 1, 2019, with no restatement of comparative information.
The Group plans to apply the practical expedient to grandfather the definition of a lease on transition. This means
that it will apply IFRS 16 to all contracts entered into before 1 January 2019 and identified as leases in accordance
with IAS 17 and IFRIC 4. The Group also plans to apply exemptions allowed by IFRS 16.5 to not recognize short
term leases (less than 12 months) and leases for which the underlying asset is of a low value.
When assessing the residual lease commitments duration for Real Estate, the Group has made an analysis of its
main strategic sites including Data Centers to consider renewals reasonably certain to be exercised. The Group
used incremental borrowing rates to calculate its lease liability as of January 1, 2019.
The Group has assessed the impact that initial application of IFRS 16 will have on its consolidated financial
statements. As of January 1, 2019, the Group will recognize a right-of-use for Real Estate, IT equipments and cars
used by employees and the underlying lease liability. The lease liability to be recognized as of January 1, 2019 will
be in a range from € 1.3 to € 1.6 billion. The main impacts relate to Real Estate. This lease liability will be
excluded from the Group net debt definition, therefore Free Cash Flow as per Group definition will remain
comparable with prior years. Existing finance lease liability under IAS 17 as of January 1, 2019 will be reclassified
from net debt to lease liability.
The nature of expenses related to those leases will now change as IFRS 16 replaces the straight-line operating
lease expense with a depreciation charge of right-of-use assets and interest expense on lease liabilities. The final
impacts of adopting the standard on January 1, 2019 will be fine tuned and fully disclosed in June 30, 2019 interim
financial statements.
These consolidated financial statements are presented in euro, which is the Group’s functional currency. All figures
are presented in € million. This may in certain circumstances lead to non-material differences between the sum of
the figures and the subtotals that appear in the tables.

Accounting estimates and judgments
The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense in the financial
statements and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the closing date. The estimates, assumptions and
judgments that may result in a significant adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are
essentially related to:
• Revenue recognition and associated costs on long-term contracts (Note 3 – Revenue, trade receivables,
contract assets and contract costs);
• Goodwill, customer relationships, technologies & impairment tests (Note 8 – Goodwill & fixed assets);
• Measurement of deferred tax assets recognized on tax loss carry-forwards (Note 7 - Income Tax);
• Pensions (Note 9 - Pensions plans and other long-term benefits).
Consolidation methods
Subsidiaries are entities controlled directly or indirectly by the Group. Control is defined by the ability to govern
the financial and operating policies generally, but not systematically, combined with a shareholding of more than
50 percent of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or
convertible, the power to appoint the majority of the members of the governing bodies and the existence of veto
rights are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully
consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date
on which control ceases.
Jointly controlled companies are accounted for under the equity method when they are classified as joint ventures
and consolidated on the basis of the percentage share specific to each balance sheet and income statement item
when they are classified as joint operations.
Financial assets classification and business model
IFRS 9 defines three approaches to classify and measure financial assets based on their initial recognition.
• Amortized cost;
• Fair value though other components of comprehensive income;
• Fair value through profit and loss.

Financial assets are classified according to these three categories by reference to the business model the Group
uses to manage them, and the contractual cash flows they generate. Loans, receivables and other debt
instruments considered “basic lending arrangements” as defined by IFRS 9 (contractual cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest) are carried at amortized cost when they are managed with the purpose of
collecting contractual cash flows, or at fair value through other components of comprehensive income when they
are managed with the purpose of collecting contractual cash flows and selling the asset, while debt instruments
that are not “basic lending arrangements” or do not correspond to these business models are carried at fair value
through profit and loss. Equity instruments are carried at fair value through profit and loss or, under an
irrevocable option, at fair value through Other components of comprehensive income. The former financial asset
categories under IAS 39 (loans and receivables, financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, investments
held to maturity and available-for-sale financial assets) no longer exist.
The business model of the Group is to collect its contractual cash flows for its trade receivables. Trade receivables
can be transferred to third parties (banks) with conditions of the transfers meeting IFRS 9 requirements, meaning
transfer of contractual cash flows and transfer of substantially all risks and rewards are achieved. Those trade
receivables are in that case derecognized, further to a precise analysis of the actual transfer of risks, the non
materiality of any dilution risk based on past experience, and the absence of continuing involvement. The Group is
selling 100% of the rights to cash flow it has on some trade receivables. A specific contract exists in the US where
Atos only sells 90% of the right to cash flows and then derecognize 90% of the receivables. See Note 3 for full
impact of trade receivables derecognized.

Presentation rules
Current and non-current assets and liabilities

Assets and liabilities classified as current are expected to be realized, used or settled during the normal cycle of
operations. All other assets and liabilities are classified as non-current. Current assets and liabilities, excluding the
current portion of borrowings, financial receivables and provisions represent the Group’s working capital
requirement.
Assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations

Should there be assets and liabilities held for sale or discontinued operations, they would be presented on
separate lines in the Group’s balance sheet, without restatements for previous periods. They are measured at the
lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Non-current assets and liabilities are classified as
held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through
continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the assets and
liabilities are available for immediate sale in their present condition at the reporting date.
Should these assets and liabilities represent either a complete business line or a business unit, the profit or loss
from these activities are presented on a separate line of the income statement, and is restated in the cash flow
statement and the income statement.
Translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies

The balance sheets of companies based outside the euro zone are translated at closing exchange rates. Income
statement items are translated based on average exchange rates for the period. Balance sheet and income
statement translation adjustments arising from a change in exchange rates are recognized as a separate
component of equity under “Translation adjustments”.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity have been treated as assets and
liabilities of that foreign entity and translated into euro at the closing date.
The Group does not consolidate any entity operating in a hyperinflationary economy except Argentina. Argentina is
a hyperinflationary economy since July 1, 2018. As such, all Profit & Loss items from Argentinian entities have
been restated from inflation in accordance with IAS 29. Correction has been calculated month by month applying
inflation since January 1, 2018 to end of each month until end of year. This led to a gross-up of Profit and Loss
items in pesos. Those flows have been converted at the € vs pesos rate as of December 2018. This restatement on
the Group net result did not have a material impact and did not impact the opening equity.
Translation of transactions denominated in foreign currencies

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rate prevailing at the
dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions
and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are recognized in the income statement under the heading “Other financial income and expenses”,
except where hedging accounting is applied as explained in the paragraph “Financial assets – Derivative financial
instruments”.
Operating margin
The underlying operating performance of ongoing activities is presented within operating margin, while unusual
operating income/expenses are separately identified and presented below operating margin, in line with the ANC’s
(Autorité des Normes Comptables) recommendation n°2009-R-03 (issued on July 2, 2009) and recommendation
n°2013-03 (issued on November 7, 2013) regarding the presentation of financial statements.

B.5.7.3 Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Note 1 Changes in the scope of consolidation
Business combination and goodwill

A business combination may involve the purchase of another entity, the purchase of all the net assets of another
entity or the purchase of some of the net assets of another entity that together form one or more businesses.
Major services contracts involving staff and asset transfers that enable the Group to develop or significantly
improve its competitive position within a business or a geographical sector are accounted for as business
combinations when fulfilling the definition of a business under IFRS 3.
Valuation of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed of newly acquired subsidiaries

Business combinations are accounted for according to the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in
exchange for control of the acquired entity is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the
acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to the former
owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree.
Direct transaction costs related to a business combination are charged to the income statement when incurred and
presented as part of the Other Operating Income.
Non-controlling interests may, on the acquisition date, be measured either at fair value or based on their stake in
the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired entity. The choice of measurement basis is
made on a transaction-by-transaction basis.
During the first consolidation, all the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary acquired are
measured at their fair value.
In step acquisitions, any equity interest held previously by the Group is remeasured at fair value at the acquisition
date (i.e. the date when the Group obtains control) and the resulting gain or loss is recognized in net income.
Purchase of non-controlling interests and sale of interests in a controlled subsidiary

Purchase of non-controlling interests and sale transactions of interests in a controlled subsidiary that do not
change the status of control are recorded through shareholders’ equity (including direct acquisition costs).
If control in a subsidiary is lost, any gain or loss is recognized in net income. Furthermore, if an investment in the
entity is retained by the Group, it is re-measured to its fair value and any gain or loss is also recognized in net
income.
Syntel
Atos completed in October 2018 the acquisition of Syntel Inc., a leading global provider of integrated information
technology and knowledge process services headquartered in Michigan, with $ 924 million revenue in 2017 of
which 89% in North America, 25% operating margin, and c. 40% of its activities in digital, automation, and
robotization. Syntel offers its customers high value-added digital services in several specific verticals such as
Banking and Financial Services, Healthcare, Retail and Insurance.
Atos acquired 100% of Syntel Inc. which is fully consolidated since November 1, 2018.

been valued by an independent expert and will be amortized over 12 years. An amortization of € 11 million has
been recognized for the 2 months period ended December 31, 2018.
If new information is obtained within 12 months from the acquisition date about facts and circumstances that
existed at acquisition date and influencing the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired, the purchase price
allocation will be revised.

The Group incurred € 11 million of legal fees and due diligence costs. These costs have been recognized in “other
operating income and expenses” in the Group’s consolidated income statement.
2018 Revenue and result as though the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2018.
If the acquisition of Syntel Inc. had occurred on January 1, 2018, the twelve-month revenue for 2018 would have
been € 859 million and the twelve-month net income would have been € 120 million.

SIX Payment Services
Atos completed in November 2018 the acquisition of SIX Payment Services. SIX Payment Services is the payment
services division of SIX Group, delivering at scale both commercial acquiring and financial processing services. SIX
Payment Services is the clear leader of the DACH region (Deutschland Austria Switzerland), with n°1 commercial
acquiring market positions in Switzerland, Austria and Luxembourg and a sizeable presence in Germany.
Worldline acquired 100% of SIX Payment Services which is fully consolidated since December 1, 2018.

As part of the transaction, Worldline issued 49.1 million new ordinary shares representing 26.9% of the share
capital of Worldline, fully paid up. The fair value of the shares issued was measured using the opening market
price of Worldline SA ‘s ordinary shares on the acquisition date.
The contingent consideration arrangement requires Worldline to pay a cash consideration to the former
shareholders of SIX Payment Services depending on the Worldline stock price in March 2020. Fair value was
estimated using the Geometric Brownian motion model method based on Worldline share price at the acquisition
date.

The goodwill arising from the acquisition is not tax deductible.
If new information is obtained within one year from the acquisition date about facts and circumstances that
existed at the acquisition date that would lead to adjustments to the above amounts, then the acquisition
accounting will be revised at that time.

Acquisition-related costs
The Group incurred € 18 million of legal fees and due diligence costs. These costs have been recognized in “other
operating income and expenses” in the Group’s consolidated income statement.
2018 Revenue and operating margin as though the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2018.
If the acquisition of SIX Payment Services had occurred on January 1, 2018, the twelve-month revenue for 2018

Worldline issued 49,066,878 of new shares in December at € 47.04 generating proceeds of € 2,308 million and
recorded Non Controlling Interests for € 1,135 million. As a result, a € 282 million loss due to a dilution of 18.7%
was also recorded in equity. Atos percentage of interest in Worldline decreased to 50.8%.
Other acquisitions
Convergence Creators Holding Gmbh (CVC)
In December 2017, Atos acquired CVC, a global multi-industry digital transformation solutions provider. This entity
is fully consolidated from January 1, 2018. The consideration amounted to € 45 million generating a goodwill of
€ 38 million before allocation. The valuation of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed at their fair value has
resulted in the recognition of new intangible assets (customer relationships and technology, valued by an
independent expert) for a total amount of € 28 million.
Air-Lynx
Atos acquired Air-Lynx, a French manufacturer of next-generation professional radio networks based on 4G LTE
market standards. Air-Lynx is fully consolidated from April 1, 2018. Impacts on Group financial statements are not
material.

Note 2 Segment information
According to IFRS 8, reported operating segments profits are based on internal management reporting information
that is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker, and is reconciled to Group profit or loss. The chief
operating decision maker assesses segments profit or loss using a measure of operating profit. The chief operating
decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments,
has been identified as the company CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors who makes strategic decisions.
The internal management reporting is built on two axes: Global Business Units and Divisions (Infrastructure &
Data Management (IDM), Business & Platform Solutions (B&PS), Big Data & Cybersecurity (BDS), Worldline).
Global Business Units have been determined by the Group as key indicators by the chief operating decision maker.
As a result, and for IFRS 8 requirements, the Group discloses Global Business Units as operating segments.
A Business Unit is defined as a geographical area or the aggregation of several geographical areas - except for the
Worldline activities - which contain one or several countries, without taking into consideration the activities
exercised within each country. Each Business Unit is managed by a dedicated member of the Executive
Committee.
The measurement policies that the Group uses for segmental reporting under IFRS 8 are the same as those used
in its financial statements. Corporate entities are not presented as an operating segment. Therefore, their financial
statements are used as a reconciling item. Corporate assets which are not directly attributable to the business
activities of any operating segments are not allocated to a segment, which primarily applies to the Group’s
headquarters. Shared assets such as the European mainframe are allocated to the Business Unit where they are
physically located even though they are used by several Business Units.

Note 3 Revenue, trade receivables, contract assets and contract costs
Implementation of IFRS 15
The effect of initially applying IFRS 15 on the Group’s revenue from contracts with customers is described
in Changes in accounting policies section. Revenue is recognized if a contract exists between Atos and its
customer. A contract exists if collection of consideration is probable, rights to goods or services and
payment terms can be identified, and parties are committed to their obligations. Revenue from contracts
with customers is recognized either against a contract asset or receivable, before effective payment
occurs.
Multiple arrangements services contracts
The Group may enter into multiple-element arrangements, which may include combinations of different
goods or services. Revenue is recognized for each distinct good or service which is separately identifiable
from other items in the arrangement and if the customer can benefit from it.
Contracts delivered by Infrastructure & Data Management and Business & Platform Solutions Divisions
often embed transition and transformation prior to the delivery of recurring services, such as IT support
and maintenance.
When transition or transformation activities represent knowledge transfer to set up the recurring service
and provide no incremental benefit to the customer (set up activities), no revenue is recognized in
connection with these activities. The costs incurred during these activities are capitalized as contract
costs if they create a resource that will be used in satisfying future performance obligations related to the
contract and if they are recoverable. They are amortized on a systematic basis over the contractual
period, taking into account any anticipated contract. The cash collected for such activities is considered as
advance payment and recognized as revenue over the recurring service period.
In contrast, when these activities transfer to the customer the control of a distinct good or service and
the customer could benefit from this good or service independently from the recurring services, they are
accounted for separately as separate performance obligations and revenues relating to these activities
are recognized.
When a single contract contains multiple distinct goods or services, the consideration is allocated
between the goods and services based on their stand-alone selling prices. The stand-alone selling prices
are determined based on the list prices including usual discounts granted at which the Group sells the
goods or services separately. Otherwise, the Group estimates stand-alone selling prices using a cost plus
margin approach.

Principal versus agent
When the Group resells hardware, software and IT services purchased from third-party suppliers, it
performs an analysis of the nature of its relationship with its customers to determine if it is acting as
principal or as agent in the delivery of the good or service. The Group is a principal if it controls the
specified good or service before it is transferred to the customer. In such case, revenue is recognized on
a gross basis. If the Group is an agent, revenue is recognized on a net basis (net of suppliers costs),
corresponding to any fee or commission to which the Group is entitled. When the Group is providing a
significant service of integrating the specified good or service, it is acting as a principal in the process of
resale. If the specified good or service is distinct from the other services promised to its customer, the
Group is acting as a principal notably if it is primarily responsible for the good or service meeting the
customer specifications or assumes inventory or delivery risks.
For Worldline activities, Revenue generated by acquiring activities is recognized net of interchange fees
charged by issuing banks. The Group does not provide, a significant service of integrating the service
performed by the issuing bank and is not responsible for the execution of this service. These fees are
transferred to the merchant in a pass-through arrangement and are not part of the consideration to
which the Group is entitled in exchange for the service it provides to the merchant. In contrast, scheme
fees paid to the payment schemes (Visa, Mastercard, Bancontact…) are accounted for in expenses as
fulfilment costs and recognized as revenue when invoiced to merchants. The Group provides commercial
acquiring services by integrating the services purchased from the payment schemes.
At a point in time versus over time recognition
Revenue is recognized when the Group transfers the control of a good or service to the customer, either
at a point in time or over time.
For recurring services, the revenue is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and
consumes the benefit provided by the Group’s performance as the Group performs. If the Group has a
right to invoice a customer at an amount that corresponds directly with its performance to date, the
revenue is recognized at that amount. Otherwise, revenue is recognized based on the costs incurred if
the entity’s efforts are not expensed evenly throughout the period covered by the service.
When the Group builds an asset or provides specific developments, revenue is recognized over time,
generally based on costs incurred, when the Group’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the
customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced or when the performance does not create an asset
with an alternative use and the Group has an enforceable right to payment for the performance
completed to date by the contract and local regulations. Otherwise, revenue is recognized at a point in
time.
Contract costs - Costs to obtain and fulfill a contract
Incremental costs to acquire a multi-year service contracts are capitalized and amortized over the life of
the contract.
Transition & Transformation costs that do not represent a separate performance obligation of a contract
are capitalized as contract costs if they create a resource that will be used to perform other performance
obligations embedded in the contract, are recoverable. Other costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract
are expensed when incurred.
Balance sheet presentation
Contract assets primarily relate to the Group’s rights to consideration for work completed but not yet
billed at the reporting date. When the rights to consideration are unconditional, they are classified as
trade receivables.
Contract liabilities relate to upfront payments received from customers in advance of the performance
obligation. Contract costs are presented separately from contract assets.
Certain service arrangements might qualify for treatment as lease contracts under IFRIC 4 if they convey
a right to use an asset in return for payments included in the overall contract remuneration. If service
arrangements contain a lease, the Group is considered to be the lessor regarding its customers. Where
the lease transfers the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to its customers, the Group recognizes
assets held under lease and presents them as contract asset.
Revenue recognition and associated costs on long-term contracts
Total projected contract costs are based on various operational assumptions such as forecast volume or
variance in the delivery costs that have a direct influence on the level of revenue and possible forecast
losses on completion that are recognized. A provision for onerous contract is booked if the future costs to
fulfill a contract are higher than its related benefits.

Financing component
When Atos expects the period between the transfer of goods and services and customer payment to be
greater than 12 months, it assesses whether the contract is embedding a financing component granted or
received. When significant, interests generated by this financing component are booked separately from
revenue.
3.1. Disaggregation of revenue from contracts with customers

Most of revenue generated by IDM & B&PS divisions are recognized over time for fixed price contracts
and at a point of time for time & material-based contracts. The Group applies the “cost-to-cost” method
to measure progress to completion for fixed price contracts. Most of the BDS Revenue is recognized at a
point of time when solutions are delivered except for High Performance Computers solutions when Atos is
building a dedicated asset with no alternative use and has right to payment by the contract and local
regulation for costs incurred embedding a reasonable margin.
In the following table, revenue from contracts with customers is disaggregated by markets.
Disaggregated revenue by Global Business Units and Divisions is disclosed in Group’s reportable
segments (See Note 2).

The average credit period on sale of services is between 30 and 60 days depending on the countries.
Most of the contract assets should be converted in trade receivables in the 12 coming months. Most of
the contract liabilities should be converted in revenue in the 12 coming months.
The DSO ratio reached 43 days compared to 39 days at the end of December 2017.
Further to IFRS 15 implementation, the calculation of the DSO takes into account the resale transactions
receivables on which related revenue is recognized on a net basis (net of suppliers costs) while it does
not take into account the gross revenue related to these transaction. The impact from this restatement at
the end of 2017 amounts to 4 days. As a result, the post IFRS 15 DSO is structurally slightly higher than
the underlying customer billing terms and payment terms.

Transfer of trade receivables
€ 200 million to € 100 million. The Group sold with recourse trade receivables for € 85 million. These
trade receivables have not been derecognized from the statement of financial position, because the
Group retains substantially all risks and rewards. The amount received on transfer has been recognized
as a secured bank loan. The arrangement with the bank is such that the customer remit cash directly to
the Group and the Group transfers the collected amount to the bank.
DSO has been positively impacted by the sale of receivables on large customer contracts by 23 days,
stable compared to December 2017. As of December 31, 2018, € 894 million of trade receivables were
transferred to third parties with conditions of the transfers meeting IFRS 9 requirements, meaning
transfer of contractual cash flows and transfer of substantially all risks and rewards are achieved (€ 858
million as of December 31, 2017). Those trade receivables were therefore derecognized in the statement
of financial position as of December 31, 2018. The € 894 million include $ 109 million related to a specific
contract in the US where Atos only sells 90% of the right to cash flows and then derecognizes 90% of the
receivables. For more details on the business model, please refer to the section “Basis of preparation and
significant accounting policies” paragraph Financial assets classification and business model.
Expected loss model

The new forward looking “expected loss” impairment model introduces by IFRS 9 had no major impact on
the overall impairment of contract assets and trade receivables.
Trade receivables related to bankrupcies of German customers (dated 2009 and 2012) for € 32 million
have been written-off and the related provision for doubtful debt have been released for the same
amount.

Note 5 Other operating income and expenses
“Other operating income and expenses” covers income or expense items that are unusual, abnormal and
infrequent. They are presented below operating margin.
Charges to (or releases from) restructuring and rationalization plans, and associated costs are classified
in the income statement according to the nature of the plan:
• plans directly related to operations are classified within Operating margin;
• plans relating to business combinations or qualified as unusual, infrequent and abnormal are
classified in Operating income;
• if a restructuring plan qualifies for Operating income, the related real estate rationalization &
associated costs regarding premises are also presented in Operating income.
When accounting for business combinations, the Group may record provisions for risks, litigations, etc. in
the opening balance sheet for a period of 12 months beyond the business combination date. After the 12-
month period, unused provisions arising from changes in circumstances are released through the income
statement under “Other operating income and expenses”.
“Other operating income and expenses” also include major litigations, and non-recurrent capital gains
and losses on the disposal of tangible and intangible assets, significant impairment losses on assets other
than financial assets, the amortization of customer relationships and Trademarks, amortization of equity
based compensation and any other item that is deemed infrequent, unusual and abnormal.
Equity-based compensation
Free shares and stock options are granted to management and certain employees at regular intervals.
These equity-based compensations are measured at fair value at the grant date using the Black-Scholes
model. Changes in the fair value of options after the grant date have no impact on the initial valuation.
The fair value of instruments is recognized in “other operating income and expense” on a straight-line
basis over the period during which those rights vest, using the straight-line method, with the offsetting
credit recognized directly in equity.
In some tax jurisdictions, Group entities receive a tax deduction when stock options are exercised, based
on the Group share price at the date of exercise.
In those instances, a deferred tax asset is recorded for the difference between the tax base of the
employee services received to date (being the future tax deduction allowed by local tax authorities) and
the current carrying amount of this deduction, being nil by definition. Deferred tax assets are estimated
based on the Group’s share price at each closing date, and are recorded in income tax provided that the
amount of tax deduction does not exceed the amount of the related cumulative stock option expenses to
date. The excess, if any, is recorded directly in the equity.
Employee Share Purchase Plans offer employees the opportunity to invest in Group’s shares at a
discounted price. Shares are subject to a five-year lock-up period restriction. Fair values of such plans
are measured taking into account:
• the exercise price based on the average opening share prices quoted over the 20 trading days
preceding the date of grant;
• the 20 percent discount granted to employees;the attribution of free shares for the first subscribed
shares according to the matching share plan;
• the consideration of the five-year lock-up restriction to the extent it affects the price that a
knowledgeable, willing market participant would pay for that share; and
• the grant date: the date on which the plan and its term and conditions, including the exercise price,
is announced to employees.
Fair values of such plans are fully recognized in “Other operating income and expenses” at the end of the
subscription period.
The Group has also granted to management and certain employees free share plans. The fair value of
those plans corresponds to the value of the shares at the grant date and takes into account employee
turnover during the vesting period as well as the value of the lock-up period restriction when applicable.

Other operating income and expenses relate to income and expenses that are unusual and infrequent and
represented a net expense of € 424 million in 2018. The following table presents this amount by nature:
12 months 12 months
(In €millio n) ended 31 ended 31

Amortization of intangible assets (PPA from acquisitions) -128 -109
Equity based compensation -52 -86
Other items -43 -59
Total -424 -417
The € 79 million staff reorganization expense was mainly the consequence of the adaptation of the
Group workforce in several countries such as Germany, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. A
significant staff reorganization was implemented in North America, however with more limited costs
compared to other countries.
The € 38 million rationalization and associated costs primarily resulted from the closure of office
premises and data centers consolidation, mainly in France, Germany and North America.
Integration and acquisition costs mainly relate to the acquisition and integration costs of new
acquired companies. Syntel, SIX Payment Services and equensWorldline acquisition and integration costs
amount to € 52 million while the other costs relate to the migration and standardization of internal IT
platforms of earlier acquisitions.
February 1, 2016;
November 1, 2018;
October 1, 2016;
The equity based compensation expense amounted to € 52 million compared to € 86 million in 2017,
in particular due to a lower performance in 2018.
In 2018, the Group strongly decreased the amount of other items from € 59 million to € 43 million
facing less exceptional expenses related to cyberattacks, the implantation of GDPR or settlement of
litigations. The € 43 million expenses this year corresponded mainly to semi retirement schemes in
Germany and France.

Equity-based compensation
The € 52 million expense recorded within operating margin relating to equity-based compensation (€ 86
million in 2017) is made up of:
• € 53 million related to free shares plans granted from 2014 until 2018 of which € 4 million of 2018
free shares plans granted;
• € -1 million related to stock options plans implemented in Bull in 2014 and Worldline in 2016 and

Atos free share plans
Rules governing the free share plans in Group Atos (prior to 2018) are as follows:
• To receive the share, the grantee must generally be an employee or a corporate officer of the Group
or a company employee related to Atos;
• Vesting is also conditional on both the continued employment condition and the achievement of
performance criteria, financial and non-financial ones;

shares plans.
Rules described above applied to 2018 free shares plans are the same except for the FCF criterion
replaced by earning per share (EPS).
The performance criteria for 75% of free shares granted as part of July 25, 2017, March 27, 2018 and
July 22, 2018 free shares plans have further been modified by the Board of Directors on October 22,
2018 to align with the revised guidance provided to the market. These modifications have not been
extended to the free shares granted to the Chairman and CEO in respect of the 2018 free share plan.
Based on 2018 Group results, the remaining 25% of free shares of the above plans will not be vested (as
well as 100% of the Chairman & CEO 2018 free share plan).

Note 6 Financial assets, liabilities and financial result
6.1. Financial result

Net financial expense amounted to € 87 million for the period (compared to € 62 million prior year) and
was composed of a net cost of financial debt of € 31 million and non-operational financial costs of € 56
million.

Net costs of financial debt -31 -24
Net cost of financial debt was € 31 million (compared to € 24 million in 2017) and resulted from the
following elements:
• the average gross borrowing of € 3,330 million compared to € 2,190 million in 2017 bearing an
average expense rate of 1.25% compared to 1.49% last year. The average gross borrowing expenses
were mainly explained by:
o the used portion of the syndicated loan combined with the Negotiable EUropean Commercial
Papers (NEU CP) and the Negotiable EUropean Medium Term Note program (NEU MTN) for an
average of € 1,239 million (compared to an average of € 1,103 million in 2017) bearing an
effective interest rate of 0.28%, benefiting from the attractive remuneration applied to the NEU
CP;
o a € 600 million bond issued in July 2015 bearing a coupon rate of 2.375%;
o a € 300 million bond issued in October 2016 bearing a coupon rate of 1.444%;
o a $ 1,900 million 3 and 5 year term loan signed in October 2018 drawn in $ and € at variable rate
partially repaid in December for an amount of $ 200 million bearing an average effective interest
rate of around 1.78%
o other sources of financing, including securitization, for an average of € 194 million, bearing an
effective interest rate of 2.60%.
• the average gross cash varied from € 1,339 million in 2017 to € 1,313 million in 2018 bearing an
average income rate of 0.80% compared to 0.67% in 2017.

Non-operational financial costs amounted to € 56 million compared to € 38 million in 2017 and were
mainly composed of pension related interest (broadly stable compared to € 30 million expense in 2017)
and a net foreign exchange gain (including hedges) of € 5 million versus a net foreign exchange loss
(including hedges) of € 3 million in 2017 and the SIX Payment Services contingent consideration variance
for € -18 million. The pension financial cost represented the difference between interest costs on pension
obligations and interest income on plan assets.
6.2. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank and financial instruments such as money market
securities. Such financial instruments are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject
to an insignificant risk of change in value. They are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash
commitments and have a short maturity, in general three months or less from the date of acquisition.
Some instruments, such as term deposits, that have at inception a longer maturity but provide for early
withdrawal and a capital guarantee may also be classified as cash equivalents under certain
circumstances. Money market securities are recognized at their fair value. Changes in fair value are
recorded in the income statement under “Other financial income and expenses”.
Cash and cash equivalents are measured at their fair value through profit and loss.
For entities having subscribed to the Group cash pooling agreement, the cash/debt balance sheet
positions which are linked to this agreement are mutualized and only the net position is presented in the
consolidated balance sheet.
The cash and cash equivalents are held with bank and financial institutions counterparties, majority of
which are rated A- to AA-. Impairment on cash and cash equivalent is calculated based on S&P default
probability.

Depending on market conditions and short-term cash flow expectations, Atos from time to time invests in
money market funds or bank deposits with a maturity period not exceeding three months.

6.3. Non-current financial assets
Investments in non-consolidated companies

The Group holds shares in companies without exercising significant influence or control. Investments in
non-consolidated companies are recognized at their fair value. For listed shares, fair value corresponds to
the share price at the closing date.
Visa preferred shares
Under IFRS 9 the analysis applied is the approach for debt instrument. The accounting treatment of debt
instruments is determined by the business model of the financial instrument and the contractual
characteristics of the incoming cash flows of the financial instruments. The understanding is that Visa’s
Convertible preferred stock does not pass the SPPI (Solely Payment of Principal and Interests) test
because the cash flows generated by those stock include an indexation to the value of the Visa shares,
and such equity indexation gives rise to a variability that do not solely represent a payment of principal
and interests. In this situation, the accounting treatment of the debt instruments is fair value through
P&L.

industry digital transformation solutions provider acquired by Atos end of 2017;
• the Twint investment part of SIX Payment Services Group, acquired by Worldline in 2018;
• the Visa preferred shares formerly owned by SIX Payment Services.

Other non-current financial items include upfront and underwriting fees related to Syntel acquisition
amortized over the duration of the debt instrument.
6.4. Financial liabilities
Borrowings
Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of debt issuance costs. Borrowings are subsequently
measured at amortized cost. The calculation of the effective interest rate takes into account interest
payments and the amortization of the debt issuance costs.
Debt issuance costs are amortized in financial expenses over the life of the loan though the use of
amortized cost method. The residual value of issuance costs for loans derecognized is fully expensed on
the date of derecognition.
Bank overdrafts are recorded in the current portion of borrowings.
Leases
Asset leases where the Group has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as
finance leases. Finance leases are capitalized at the lease’s inception at the lower of the fair value of the
leased asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Assets acquired under finance lease
are depreciated over the shorter of the assets’ useful life and the lease term.
Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as
operating leases.

Note 7 Income tax
The income tax charge includes current and deferred tax expenses. Deferred tax is calculated wherever
temporary differences occur between the tax base and the consolidated base of assets and liabilities,
using the liability method. Deferred tax is valued using the enacted tax rate at the closing date that will
be in force when the temporary differences reverse.
In case of a change in tax rate, the deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the income
statement except if those changes relate to items recognized in other comprehensive income or in equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are netted off at the taxable entity level, when there is a legal right to
offset. Deferred tax assets corresponding to temporary differences and tax losses carried forward are
recognized when they are considered to be recoverable during their validity period, based on historical
and forecast information.
Deferred tax liabilities for taxable temporary differences relating to goodwill are recognized to the extent
they do not arise from the initial recognition of goodwill.
Deferred tax assets are tested for impairment at least annually at the closing date based on December
actuals, business plans and impairment test data.
Measurement of recognized tax loss carry-forwards
Deferred tax assets are recognized on tax loss carry-forwards when it is probable that taxable profit will
be available against which the tax loss carry-forwards can be utilized. Estimates of taxable profits and
utilizations of tax loss carry-forwards were prepared on the basis of profit and loss forecasts as included
in the 3-year business plans (other durations may apply due to local specificities).

Note 8 Goodwill and fixed assets
8.1. Goodwill
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-
controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in
the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and
the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable
assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, of the amount
of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and of the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held
interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognized immediately in profit or loss as a bargain
purchase gain.
Goodwill is allocated to Cash Generating Units (CGU) for the purpose of impairment testing. Goodwill is
allocated to those CGUs that are expected to benefit from synergies of the related business combination
and represent the lowest level within the Group at which management monitors goodwill.
A CGU is defined as the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely
independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of assets. CGUs correspond to geographical
areas where the Group has operations – except for the Worldline activities.
The recoverable value of a CGU is based on the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in
use determined using the discounted cash-flows method. When this value is less than its carrying
amount, an impairment loss is recognized in the operating income.
The impairment loss is first recorded as an adjustment of the carrying amount of the goodwill allocated to
the CGU and the remainder of the loss, if any, is allocated pro rata to the other long-term assets of the
unit.
The Cash Generating Units used for the impairment test are not larger than operating segments
determined in accordance with IFRS 8 Operating segments.
Goodwill is not amortized and is subject to an impairment test performed at least annually by comparing
its carrying amount to its recoverable amount at the closing date based on December actuals and latest 3
year plan, or more often whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount could not
be recoverable. Such events and circumstances include but are not limited to:
• significant deviance of economic performance of the asset when compared with budget;
• significant worsening of the asset’s economic environment;
• loss of a major client;
• significant increase in interest rates.
Impairment tests
The Group tests at least annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment, in accordance with the
accounting policies stated below. The recoverable amounts of cash generating units are determined
based on value-in-use calculations or on their fair value reduced by the costs of sales. These calculations
require the use of estimates.

Goodwill is allocated to Cash Generating Units (CGUs) that are then part of one of the operating
segments disclosed in Note 2 Segment information as per IFRS 8 requirements. Changes in internal
management reporting are applied retrospectively and comparative figures are restated.
A summary of the carrying values of goodwill allocated by CGUs or grouping of CGUs is presented
hereafter. Overall, goodwill increased from € 4,384 million to € 8,863 million mainly due to the
acquisitions of the year as detailed in Note 1 Changes in the scope of consolidation.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations
use cash flow projections based on financial business plans approved by management, covering a three-
year period. They are also based on the following assumptions:
• terminal value is calculated after the three-year period, using an estimated perpetuity growth rate of
2.0% (aligned with 2017). Although sometimes exceeding the long-term average growth rate for the
countries in which the Group operates, this rate reflects specifics perspectives of the IT sector; and
• discount rates are applied by CGU based on the Group’s weighted average cost of capital and
adjusted to take into account specific tax rates and country risks relating to each geographical area.

The discount rates used by CGU are presented below:
2018 2017
Discount rate Discount rate
United Kingdom and Ireland 8.4% 8.7%
France 8.3% 8.6%
Germany 8.3% 8.6%
North America 8.4% 8.6%

between 8.3% and between 8.6% and

Other countries
10.9% 10.7%
Worldline 8.3% 7.8%
Based on the 2018 goodwill impairment test, which was carried out at year-end, no impairment losses
were recognized as at December 31, 2018.
An analysis of the calculation’s sensitivity to a combined change in the key parameters (operating
margin, discount rate and perpetuity growth rate) based on reasonably probable assumptions of
variations of +/-50 bp for each of these parameters was performed and did not identify any probable
scenario where the CGU’s recoverable amount would fall below its carrying amount.
8.2. Intangible assets
Intangible assets other than goodwill

Intangible assets other than goodwill consist primarily of software and user rights acquired directly by the
Group, software, customer relationships and technologies acquired as part of a business combination as
well as internally developed IT solutions.
To assess whether an internally generated intangible asset meets the criteria for recognition, the Group
classifies the generation of the asset into a research phase and a development phase.
Under IAS 38, no intangible asset arising from research (or from the research phase of an internal
project) shall be recognized. Such expenditure is therefore recognized as an expense when it is incurred.
An intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project)
shall be recognized if, and only if, an entity can demonstrate all of the following:
• the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
• its intention to complete the intangible asset and to use or sell it;
• its ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
• how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
• the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and
to use or sell the intangible asset; and its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to
the intangible asset during its development.
Development expenditure refers to IT solutions developed for the group’s own use, to specific
implementation projects for specific customers or innovative technical solutions made available to a
group of customers. Development projects are analyzed on a case-by-case basis and the only costs which
are capitalized are those attributable to the creation, production and preparation of the asset to be
capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
Capitalized development expenditure is accounted for at cost less accumulated depreciation and any
impairment losses. It is amortized on a straight-line basis over a useful life between 3 and 12 years, for
which two categories can be identified:
• for internal software development with fast technology serving activities with a shorter business cycle
and contract duration, the period of amortization will be between 3 and 7 years, the standard
scenario being set at 5 years in line with the standard contract duration;
• for internal software development with slow technology obsolescence serving activities with a long
business cycle and contract duration, the period of amortization will be between 5 and 12 years with
a standard scenario of 7 years. It is typically the case for large mutualized payment platforms.

An intangible asset related to the customer relationships and backlog brought during a business
combination is recognized as customer relationships. The value of this asset is based on assumptions of
renewal conditions of contract and on the discounted flows of these contracts. This asset is amortized on
an estimation of its average life.
The value of the developed technology acquired is derived from an income approach based on the relief
from royalty method. This method relies on (i) assumptions on the obsolescence curve of the technology
and (ii) the theoretical royalty rate applicable to similar technologies, to determine the discounted cash
flows expected to be generated by this technology over their expected remaining useful life. The
developed technology is amortized on an estimation of its average life. The cost approach may also be
implemented as a secondary approach to derive an indicative value for consistency purposes. This
method relies on assumptions of the costs that should be engaged to reproduce a similar new item
having the nearest equivalent utility as the asset being valued. On the contrary, if technology is believed
to be the most important driver for the business, an Excess Earning method could also be implemented.
Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their expected useful life, generally not
exceeding 5 to 7 years for internally developed IT solutions in operating margin. Customer relationships,
patents, technologies and trademarks acquired as part of a business combination are amortized on a
straight-line basis over their expected useful life, generally not exceeding 19 years; any related
depreciation is recorded in other operating expenses.

The gross book value of customer relationship for € 1,898 million as at December 31,2018 presented
above, included:
• € 534 million relative to the Syntel acquisition in 2018;
• € 418 million relative to the Six acquisition in 2018;
• € 357 million relative to the Siemens IT Solutions and Services acquisition in 2011;
• € 151 million relative to the Xerox ITO acquisition in 2015;
• € 109 million relative to the Anthelio acquisition in 2016;
• € 104 million relative to the Unify acquisition in 2016.

8.3. Tangible assets
Tangible assets are recorded at acquisition cost. They are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the
following expected useful lives:
• buildings 20 years;
• fixtures and fittings 5 to 10 years;
• computer hardware 3 to 5 years;
• vehicles 4 years;
• office furniture and equipment 5 to 10 years.

Although some outsourcing contracts may involve the transfer of computing equipment to Atos, control of
the asset usually remains with the customer as they generally retain the asset. When ownership of the
computing equipment is transferred to the Group a payment generally occurs at the beginning of the
contract. Therefore IFRIC 18 does not have a significant impact on the Group accounts.
Impairment of assets
Assets that are subject to amortization are tested for impairment whenever events or circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the
amount by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds its recoverable value.

Note 9 Pension plans and other long-term benefits
The Group uses actuarial assumptions and methods to measure pension costs and provisions. The value
of plan assets is determined based on valuations provided by the external custodians of pension funds
and following complementary investigations carried-out when appropriate. The estimation of pension
liabilities, as well as valuations of plan assets requires the use of estimates and assumptions.
Employee benefits are granted by the Group through defined contribution and defined benefit plans.
Costs relating to defined contribution costs are recognized in the income statement based on
contributions paid or due in respect of the accounting period when the related services have been
provided by beneficiaries.
The valuation of Group defined benefit obligations is based on a single actuarial method known as the
“projected unit credit method”. This method relies in particular on projections of future benefits to be
paid to Group employees, by anticipating the effects of future salary increases. Its implementation
further includes the formulation of specific assumptions which are periodically updated, in close liaison
with external actuaries used by the Group.
Plan assets usually held in separate legal entities are measured at their fair value, determined at closing.
From one accounting period to the other, any difference between the projected and actual pension plan
obligation and their related assets is combined at each benefit plan’s level to form actuarial differences.
These actuarial differences may result either from changes in actuarial assumptions used, or from
experience adjustments generated by actual developments differing, in the accounting period, from
assumptions determined at the end of the previous accounting period. All actuarial gains and losses on
post-employment benefit plans generated in the period are recognized in “other comprehensive income”.
Benefit plan costs are recognized in the Group’s operating income, except for interest costs on
obligations, net of expected returns on plans assets, which are recognized in “other financial income and
expenses”.
The total amount recognized in the Group balance sheet in respect of pension plans was € 1,197 million
at December 31, 2018 compared to € 1,179 million at December 31, 2017. The total amount recognized
for other longer-term employee benefits was € 71 million compared to € 56 million at December 31,
2017.

Pension plans
The Group’s pension obligations are located predominantly in the United Kingdom (46% of Group total
obligations), Germany (29%), and Switzerland (9%).
Characteristics of significant plans and associated risks

In the United Kingdom, these obligations are generated by legacy defined benefit plans, the majority of
which have been closed to further accrual or new entrants. The plans are final pay plans and are subject
to the UK regulatory framework where funding requirements are determined by an independent actuary
based on a discount rate reflecting the plan’s expected return on investments. Recovery periods are
agreed between the plans’ trustees and the sponsoring companies and may run up to 20 years if
appropriate securities are provided by sponsors. The majority of plans are governed by a sole
independent trustee.
The current asset allocation across United Kingdom plans is 73% fixed income, 27% equities and other
assets and may vary depending on the particular profile of each plan. The interest rate and inflation
exposures are cautiously managed through investment in Gilts, Indexed-Linked and interest rate swaps.
The fixed income allocation comprises a significant exposure to investment grade credits and the equity
allocation is well diversified geographically.
The plans do not expose the Group to any specific risks that are unusual for these types of benefit plans.
Typical risks include, increase in inflation, longevity and a decrease in discount rates and adverse
investment returns.
In Germany the majority of the liabilities relate to pension entitlements that transferred to the Group
with the acquisition of SIS in 2011 and Unify in 2016. The plans cover multiple legal entities in Germany
and are subject to the German regulatory framework, which has no funding requirements, but does
include compulsory insolvency insurance (PSV). The plans are partially funded however, using a
Contractual Trust Agreement (CTA). The CTA is governed by a professional independent third party. The
investment strategy is set by the Investment Committee composed of employer representatives. The
asset allocation related to the largest German schemes is 61% fixed income, 32% return seeking assets
and other assets and 6% property. The asset allocation related to the other scheme is more in line with
the lower interest rate sensitivities of the schemes and are predominantly invested in investment grade
credits and, to a lesser extent, in balanced funds and European high yield.
In Switzerland, the obligations are generated by legacy defined benefit plans, exceeding the minimum
benefit requirements under Swiss law (BVG). Pension contributions are paid by both the employees and
the employer and are calculated as a percentage of the covered salary. The rate of contribution depends
on the age of the employee. At retirement, the employees’ individual savings capital is multiplied by the
conversion rate, as defined by the pension fund regulations, and can be paid out as either a lifetime
annuity or a lump-sum payment. In the event of disability, the pension plan pays a disability pension
until ordinary retirement age.
The Group obligations are also generated by Qualified and Unqualifed Pension plans in the USA and, to a
lesser extent, by legal or collectively bargained end of service or end of career benefit plans. The Group
obligations with respect to post-employment healthcare benefits are not significant.
Atos recognized all actuarial gains and losses and asset ceiling effects generated in the period in "Other
comprehensive income".

Events in 2018
Atos set up its own independent Swiss foundation for the management of the risks of old age, death and
disability benefits for employees of Atos AG and Atos Consulting, with full implementation in 2019. The
rules of the foundation stipulate that any remaining funding shortfall, after consideration given to some
legal measures, is shared between employees and Atos at a 40%/60% basis.
In the UK Equal treatment in pension provision between women and men has been required for service
from 17 May 1990. Since then there has been lasting uncertainty about whether and how pension
schemes should equalise benefits to counter the effect of Guaranteed Minimum Pensions (GMPs) accrued
up to 5 April 1997. A verdict on the Lloyds Banking Group high court hearing on GMP equalisation was
provided in October 2018. It confirms the legal obligation to equalise for GMPs in respect of benefits
earned between 17 May 1990 and 5 April 1997. The clarification by the judgement on the methodology to
be used to equalize, viewed as a reassessment of the risk itself related to the imbrication of the
equalization with the plan benefit entitlements, is an increase in the liability of GBP 8.2 million.
In Germany “Übergangszuschuss” (“transition payment”) benefit is granted to former Siemens employees
who joined Siemens prior to 1 October 1983. Beyond that date, transition money benefit was no longer
granted to new joiners. To qualify for the benefit of “transition payment” each employee had to stay at
least 10 years in the company and leave the company at retirement. The Federal Labour Court of
Germany has issued a judgment on 20 March 2018, whereby it states that the “Übergangszuschuss”
(“transition payment”) forms part of the company pension scheme and that the transition payment
benefit is due to all former employees of the company who used to be eligible to it, irrespective of
whether the employees are still active employees of the company before entering into pension or they
have left for another group/company before retiring. This led to an increase of the liability by EUR 6.9
million, recorded under other operating income in the profit and loss account.
The acquisition of Syntel, in October, led to an increase in pension liabilities of € 14 million related to
Indian unfunded Gratuity severance plan.
The acquisition of SIX Payment Services (SPS) in November led to an increase in pension liabilities
(mainly in Switzerland) of € 223 million covered by € 239 million of plan assets.

Actuarial assumptions
Group obligations are valued by independent actuaries, based on assumptions that are periodically
updated.
These assumptions are set out in the table below:
United Kingdom Eurozone Switzerland USA
December December December December December December December December

31, 2018 31, 2017 31, 2018 31, 2017 31, 2018 31, 2017 31, 2018 31, 2017

RPI: 3,20% RPI: 3,20%

Inflation assumption 1.45% 1.45% na na na na
C PI: 2,20% C PI: 2,20%
The inflation assumption is used for estimating the impact of indexation of pensions in payment or salary
inflation based on the various rules of each plan.
Sensitivity of the defined benefit obligations of the significant plans to the discount rate and inflation rate
assumptions is as follows:
Discount rate Inflation rate

+25bp +25bp
United Kingdom main pension plans -4.4% +3.6%

German main pension plans -3.7% +2.5%
These sensitivities are based on calculations made by independent actuaries and do not include cross
effects of the various assumptions, they do however include effects that the inflation assumption would
have on salary increase assumptions for the United Kingdom.
Plan assets
Plan assets were invested as follows:

2018 2017 restated
Equity 16% 19%
Bonds/Interest Rate Swaps 64% 66%
Real Estate 8% 6%
C ash and C ash equivalent 3% 2%
Other 9% 7%
Of these assets, 84% is valued on market value, 11% relates to property, private equity and
infrastructure investments where valuations are based on the information provided by the investment
managers and 5% relates to insurance contracts.
A significant part of the Bonds and Interest Rate Swaps are part of the interest rate hedging program
operated by the Atos United Kingdom pension plans, which aims to hedge a significant portion of funding
liabilities. None of the plans are hedged for longevity risks.
Atos securities or assets used by the Group are not material.
Situation of the United Kingdom pension funds and impact on contribution for 2019
The Group expects to contribute € 27 million to its United Kingdom schemes next year versus € 34
million in 2018.
Prepaid pension situations on balance sheet

The net asset of € 116 million mostly relates to two scheme in the United Kingdom and one scheme in
Switzerland as a results of the SPS acquisition, and is supported by appropriate refund expectations
according to IFRIC 14.

Summary net pension impacts on profit and loss
The net impact of defined benefit pension plans on Group financial statements can be summarized as
follows:
12 months 12 months
(In €millio n)

Operating margin -27 -10
Other operating income and expenses -2 4
Financial result -26 -29
Total (expense)/profit -55 -34
Other long-term employee benefits

The net liabilities related to other long-term employee benefits were € 56 million per December 31, 2017.
They increased to € 71 million per December 31, 2018 via expenses recorded in P&L (€ 23 million),
additional liabilities due to acquisitions (€ 15 million), benefit payments (€ 20 million) net of other
impacts (€ 3 million) including employer contributions and exchange rate impact.
Note 10 Provisions
The Group uses actuarial assumptions and methods to measure provisions. Provisions are recognized
when:
• the Group has a present legal, regulatory, contractual or constructive obligation as a result of past
events and;
• it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation and;
• the amount has been reliably quantified.

Provisions are discounted when the time value effect is material. Changes in discounting effects at each
accounting period are recognized in financial expenses.

Reorganization
New reorganization provisions were posted for € 41 million over the year mainly in Germany, Central
Eastern Europe and Benelux and The Nordics driven by new plans aimed at improving Group efficiency
and productivity.
The € 67 million consumptions primarily corresponded to workforce optimization in Germany, Central
Eastern Europe and Benelux and The Nordics.
New provision in the business combination mainly related to the acquisition of CVC.
Rationalization
The new provisions of € 4 million mainly relate to office premises rationalization in Germany and The
Netherlands.
The € 6 million rationalization provisions were used against office premises rationalization costs in
Germany and in the United States .
Project commitments
The € 14 million charge was mainly incurred in Central Eastern Europe, in Germany and Benelux and The
Nordics.
Project commitments provisions released for € 19 million primarily related to losses incurred in Central
Eastern Europe, Germany, and France.
The € 20 million project commitments unused provision releases reflected mainly the reduction of former
contracts losses thanks to proactive project management or early settlements mainly in France, Benelux
and The Nordics and the United Kingdom.
Litigation and contingencies

The closing position of contingency provisions of € 121 million was composed of a number of long-term
litigation issues, such as tax contingencies and social disputes, guarantees given on disposals and other
disputes with clients and suppliers.
The legal department monitors these situations closely with a view to minimizing the ultimate liability.
Note 11 Fair value and characteristics of financial instruments
Derivative financial instruments

Derivative instruments are recognized as financial assets or liabilities at their fair value. Any change in
the fair value of these derivatives is recorded in the income statement as a financial income or expense,
except when they are eligible for hedge accounting, whereupon:
• for fair value hedging of existing assets or liabilities, the hedged portion of an instrument is measured
on the balance sheet at its fair value. Any change in fair value is recorded as a corresponding entry in
the income statement, where it is offset simultaneously against changes in the fair value of the
designated hedging elements except for any ineffectiveness;
• for cash flow hedging, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the hedging instrument is
directly recognized in shareholders’ equity as “items recognized directly in equity”. The change in
value of the ineffective portion is recognized in “Other financial income and expenses”. Amounts
deferred in equity are taken to the income statement at the same time as the related hedged cash
flow.
The Group uses forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge the variability in cash flows arising from
changes in foreign exchanges rates relating to foreign currency sales and purchases.
The Group designates only the spot element of the forward exchange contract as the hedging instrument
in cash flow hedging relationships for highly probable transactions. Under IAS 39, the change in fair value
of the forward element of the forward exchange contracts is recognized immediately in profit and loss.

On adoption of IFRS 9 requirements, the Group has elected to separately account for the forward points
as a cost of hedging. Consequently, the changes in forward points will be recognized in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in a cost of hedging reserve as a separate component within
equity and accounted for subsequently as gain and losses accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve as
part of the underlying covered transaction.
Financial risk management

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including liquidity risk, interest rate risk,
credit risk and currency risk. Financial risk management is carried out by the Group Treasury department
and involves minimizing potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk management involves maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the
availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities.
Atos’ policy is to cover in full its expected liquidity requirements by long-term committed loans or other
appropriate long-term financial instruments. Terms and conditions of these loans include maturity and
covenants leaving sufficient flexibility for the Group to finance its operations and expected developments.
Credit facilities are subject to financial covenants that are carefully followed by the Group Treasury
department.
An analysis of the maturity of financial liabilities is disclosed in Note 6.4.
Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises mainly on borrowings. The management of exposure to interest rate risk
encompasses two types:
• a price risk on fixed-rate financial assets and liabilities. For example, by contracting a fixed-rate
liability, the Group is exposed to potential opportunity losses should interest rates fall. A change in
interest rates would impact the market value of fixed-rate financial assets and liabilities. However,
this loss of opportunity would not impact financial income and expenses as reported in the
consolidated income statement and, as such, future net income of the Group up to maturity of these
assets.
• a risk on floating-rate financial assets and liabilities should interest rates increase.
The main objective of managing overall interest rate risk on the Group’s debt is to minimize the cost of
debt and to protect the Group against fluctuations in interest rates by swapping to fixed rate a portion of
the floating-rate financial debt. Authorized derivative instruments used to hedge the debt are swap
contracts entered with leading financial institutions.

Credit risk
The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk. The client selection process and related credit
risk analysis is fully integrated within the global risk assessment project conducted throughout the life
cycle of a project. Derivative counterparties and cash transactions are limited to high-credit quality
financial institutions.
Currency risk
Atos Group policy promotes natural hedge positions in which costs and revenues are denominated in the
same currency.
Nevertheless, the Group’s financial performance can be influenced by fluctuations in exchange rate
considering a growing portion of the external business involving offshore costs centers based mostly in
India and Central Europe.
The Group has established a policy for managing foreign exchange positions resulting from commercial
and financial transactions denominated in currencies different from the local currency of the relevant
entity. According to this policy, any material exposure must be hedged as soon as it occurs. In order to
hedge its foreign exchange rate exposure, the Group uses a variety of financial instruments, mainly
forward contracts and foreign currency swaps.
Price risk
The Group has no material exposure to the price of equity securities, nor is it exposed to commodity price
risks.

In 2018, bank loans and commercial papers of € +2 365 million, and in 2017 bank loans and Commercial
Papers of € 880 million are arranged at floating rates, thus exposing the Group to cash flow interest rate
risk.
The Group may mitigate its interest rate exposure using interest rates swap contracts with financial
institutions in order to fix the rate of a portion of the floating-rate financial debt. The fair value of the
financial instruments used to hedge the floating-rate financial qualifies for cash flow hedge accounting.
Exposure to interest rate risk

The table below presents the interest rate risk exposure of the Group based on future debt commitments.
The exposure at floating rate after hedging risk management is approximately € 389 million as at
December 31, 2018. A 1.0% rise in 1-month Euribor would increase the financial expense by € 4 million
assuming the structure (cash/floating debt/hedges) remains stable for the full period of the year.

Currency exchange risk
Atos operates in 73 countries. However, in most cases, Atos invoices in the country where the Group
renders the service, thus limiting the foreign exchange risk. Where this is not the case, the Group
generally uses hedging instruments such as forward contracts or foreign currency swaps to minimize the
risk.

the cash flows are expected to occur.
As at December 2018, derivatives were all allocated to the hedging of transactional risks (foreign
exchange currency risks). From an accounting point of view, most of the derivatives were considered as
cash flow hedge instruments.

Note 12 Shareholders’ equity
12.1. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income (attributable to owners of the parent) by
the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Treasury shares
deducted from consolidated equity are not taken into account in the calculation of basic or diluted
earnings per share.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to owners of the parent,
adjusted for the financial cost net of tax of dilutive debt instruments, by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares outstanding during the period, plus the average number of shares which, according to
the share buyback method, would have been outstanding had all the issued dilutive instruments been
converted (stock options and convertible debt).
The dilutive impact of each convertible instrument is determined in order to maximize the dilution of
basic earnings per share. The dilutive impact of stock options is assessed based on the average price of
Atos shares over the period.
Potential dilutive instruments comprised stock options (15,254 employee stock options) and did not
generate a restatement of net income used for the diluted EPS calculation.

No significant share transactions occurred subsequently to the 2018 closing that could have a dilutive
impact on earnings per share calculation.
12.2. Equity attributable to the owners of the parent
Treasury stock
Atos shares held by the parent company are recorded at their acquired cost as a deduction from
consolidated shareholders’ equity. In the event of a disposal, the gain or loss and the related tax impacts
are recorded as a change in consolidated shareholders’ equity.
Capital increase
In 2018, Atos SE increased its share capital by incorporating additional paid-in-capital and common stock
for €123 million related to the issuance of 1,440,870 new common stocks split as follows:
• 1,063,666 new shares,
• exercise of 377,204 stock options in 2018.

As at December 31, 2018, Atos SE issued share capital amounted to € 107 million, divided into
106,886,219 fully paid-up common stock of € 1.00 par value each.

12.3. Non-controlling Interests
Non-controlling interests purchase commitments

Firm or conditional commitments under certain conditions to purchase non-controlling interests are
similar to a purchase of shares and are recorded in borrowings with an offsetting reduction of non-
controlling interests.
For puts granted after January 1, 2010, when the cost of the purchase exceeds the amount of non-
controlling interests, the Group chooses to recognize the balance in equity (attributable to owners of the
parent). Any further change in the fair value of the non-controlling interests purchase commitment will
also be recorded in equity (attributable to owners of the parent).

For various large long-term contracts, the Group provides performance guarantees to its clients. These
guarantees amount to € 3,828 million as of December 31, 2018, compared with € 4,389 million at the
end of December 2017. This decrease of € 561 million compared to last year is mainly due to the
expiration of some guarantees provided to the benefit of the US, UK and Benelux & the Nordics
customers.
In relation to the multi-currency revolving facility amended in October 2018, Atos SE issued a parental
guarantee to the benefit of the consortium of banks represented by BNP Paribas, in order to cover up to €
660 million (unchanged amount) the obligations of its subsidiaries: Atos Telco Services B.V. and Atos
International B.V.

In relation to the Term Facility agreement signed in July 2018 in the context of the Syntel acquisition
financing, Atos SE issued a parental guarantee to the benefit of the consortium of banks represented by
BNP Paribas, in order to cover USD 1,230 million (€ 1,078 million) obligations of its US subsidiary, Green
Finco Inc. considering the partial reimbursement of USD 200 million (€ 175 million) as of December 20th
2018.
Atos SE has given a € 102.0 million guarantee to Ester Finance in relation to a securitization program
involving certain of its subsidiaries. Guarantee amount decreased due to the restructuration of the
securitization program in May 2018.
As part of the general agreement with Siemens in respect of the transfer of SIS UK pension liabilities, the
Board of Atos SE, during its March 29, 2011 meeting, agreed to provide a 20-year guarantee to the Atos
2011 Pension Trust set up to accommodate the transfer. The maximum amount of the guarantee is GBP
200.0 million (€ 222 million).
In the framework of the Atos pension Scheme discussions in UK, for a more efficient structure, the Board
of Directors of Atos SE, during its July 22, 2018 meeting, agreed to provide three parental guarantees
(amending and extending those in force) to the Atos Pension Schemes Limited as trustee of the Atos
Pension Fund and the Atos (SEMA) Pension Schemes Limited and Atos CS Pension Scheme. Under the
said guarantees, Atos SE will guarantee the obligations of the sponsoring employers of the respective
Pension Scheme to make certain payments. The total estimated amount of the new guarantees when
authorized by the Board of Directors therefore represented an extension of 150 GBP (€ 166 million) to
the existing guarantees (totaling 635 GBP (€ 704 million)) which Atos SE had previously provided to the
three schemes.

Note 16 Subsequent events
On January 29, 2019, Atos’ Board of Directors, following a specific governance process, proposed to
submit to its shareholders the project to distribute in kind around 23.4% of Worldline’s share capital, out
of the 50.8% currently owned by the Group. Post transaction, Atos would retain approximately 27.4% of
Worldline’s share capital and Worldline’s free float would be increased to approximately 45.7%. Following
the partial distribution, Worldline is expected to be deconsolidated from the Group’s accounts and Atos
remaining stake would be accounted for as an investment in associates under equity method.
Worldline’s Board of Directors met on January 29, 2019 and unanimously welcomed this planned change
in ownership structure.
The shareholders’ agreement between Atos and SIX will be amended to reflect the continued partnership
between the two groups post distribution, and both parties are expected to commit to a 6-month joint
lock-up on their respective stakes in Worldline post distribution.
Regarding the structure of the proposed distribution, Atos’ shareholders are expected to receive 2
Worldline shares for 5 Atos shares held. Technical terms of the proposed transaction are under review
and would be submitted to the vote of the Atos shareholders at the 2018 Annual General Meeting
planned on April 30, 2019.

year ended December 31, 2018
This is a translation into English of the statutory auditors’ report on the financial statements of the
Company issued in French and it is provided solely for the convenience of English speaking users.
This statutory auditors’ report includes information required by French law, such as information about the

provided to shareholders.
This report should be read in conjunction with, and construed in accordance with, French law and

To the General meeting of Shareholders of Atos S.E.,

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements
Appointment of statutory auditors
We have been appointed as statutory auditors of the Company by your general meetings of December
16, 1993 for Deloitte & Associés, and October 31, 1990 for Grant Thornton.
As at December 31, 2018, Deloitte & Associés was in its 25th year mandate, without any interruption, and
for Grant Thornton in its 28th year mandate, without any interruption, and for both statutory auditors, on
23 years of exercise of mandate since the Company securities had been admitted to trading on a
regulated market.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial
Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
accordance with French accounting principles, and for such internal control as management determines is
necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless it is expected to liquidate the Company or to cease operations.
The Audit Committee is responsible for monitoring the financial reporting process and the effectiveness of
internal control and risk management systems and where applicable, its internal audit, regarding the
accounting and financial reporting procedures.
The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors.
Statutory Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Objectives and audit approach
Our role is to issue a report on the financial statements. Our objective is to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement. Reasonable
assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with
professional standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise
from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As specified in Article L. 823-10-1 of the French Commercial Code (code de commerce), our statutory
audit does not include assurance on the viability of the Company or the quality of management of the
affairs of the Company.
As part of an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards applicable in France, the
statutory auditor exercises professional judgment throughout the audit and furthermore:
• Identifies and assesses the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error, designs and performs audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtains audit
evidence considered to be sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for his opinion. The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as
fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of
internal control.
• Obtains an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the internal control;
• Evaluates the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management in the financial statements;
• Assesses the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and,
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
This assessment is based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of his audit report. However,

future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. If the
statutory auditor concludes that a material uncertainty exists, there is a requirement to draw
attention in the audit report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such
disclosures are not provided or inadequate, to modify the opinion expressed therein.
• Evaluates the overall presentation of the financial statements and assesses whether these statements
represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Report to the Audit Committee
We submit a report to the Audit Committee which includes in particular a description of the scope of the
audit and the audit program implemented, as well as the results of our audit. We also report significant
deficiencies, if any, in internal control regarding the accounting and financial reporting procedures that
we have identified.
Our report to the Audit Committee includes the risks of material misstatement that, in our professional
judgment, were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements for the current period and
which are therefore the key audit matters that we are required to describe in this report.
We also provide the Audit Committee with the declaration provided for in Article 6 of Regulation (EU) No
537/2014, confirming our independence within the meaning of the rules applicable in France as set out in
particular in Articles L.822-10 to L.822-14 of the French Commercial Code (Code de commerce) and in
the French Code of Ethics for Statutory Auditors (Code de déontologie de la profession de commissaire
aux comptes). Where appropriate, we discuss with the Audit Committee the risks that may reasonably be
thought to bear on our independence, and the related safeguards.

B.6.2 Statutory auditors’ special report on regulated agreements and
commitments with third parties – Shareholders’ Meeting held
to approve the financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2018
This is a free translation into English of the statutory auditors’ special report on regulated agreements
and commitments that is issued in the French language and is provided solely for the convenience of
English speaking users. This report on regulated agreements should be read in conjunction with, and is
construed in accordance with, French law and professional auditing standards applicable in France.
To the general meeting of Shareholders of Atos S.E.,

In our capacity as Statutory Auditors of your Company, we hereby report to you on regulated agreements
and commitments with third parties.
The terms of our engagement require us to communicate to you, based on information provided to us,
the principal terms, the conditions and the reasons for the Company’s interest of those agreements and
commitments brought to our attention or which we may have discovered during the course of our audit,
without expressing an opinion on their usefulness and appropriateness or identifying such other
agreements and commitments, if any. It is your responsibility, pursuant to Article R. 225-31 of the
French Commercial Code (Code de Commerce), to assess the interest involved in respect of the
conclusion of these agreements and commitments for the purpose of approving them.
Our role is also to provide you with the information provided for in Article R. 225-31 of the French
Commercial Code in respect of the performance of the agreements and commitments, already authorized
by the Shareholders' Meeting and having continuing effect during the year, if any.
We conducted the procedures we deemed necessary in accordance with the professional guidelines of the
French National Institute of Statutory Auditors (Compagnie Nationale des Commissaires aux Comptes)
relating to this engagement. These procedures consisted in agreeing the information provided to us with
the relevant source documents.

AGREEMENTS AND COMMITMENTS SUBMITTED FOR APPROVAL TO THE SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING
Agreements and commitments authorized and concluded during the year

We hereby inform you that we have not been advised of any agreement or commitment authorized and
concluded during the year to be submitted to the approval of the Shareholders’ Meeting pursuant to
article L. 225-38 of the French Commercial Code.
AGREEMENTS AND COMMITMENTS ALREADY APPROVED BY THE SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING
Agreements and commitments approved in prior years
A. whose implementation continued during the year

Pursuant to Article R. 225-30 of the French Commercial Code (Code de Commerce), we have been
informed that the following agreements and commitments, already approved by the Shareholders’
Meeting in previous years, continued during the year.
With Siemens AG, shareholder holding more than 10% of the voting rights
Director concerned: M. Roland Busch, Director of Atos SE and member of the Management Board of
Siemens AG
a. Amendment to the Customer Relationship Agreement entered into with Siemens AG

On May 20, 2011, Atos SE and Siemens AG entered into a commercial agreement (hereafter the
“Customer Relationship Agreement”) regarding their future provider-customer relationship. The initial
term of the contract was 7 years and Siemens committed to a certain volume of services (€5.5 billion).
On October 28, 2015, subject to the condition precedent of the authorization by your Board of Directors,
Atos SE and Siemens AG entered into an agreement called “Third Amendment Agreement to the
Customer Relationship Agreement”, for the purpose of amending the Customer Relationship Agreement
mainly as follows:
(i) extend the term of the Customer Relationship Agreement for an additional period of 3.5 years,
and in this context, increase the minimum volume of services to which Siemens remains
committed towards Atos by an additional amount of €3.23 billion (i.e. a contract length extended
until December 31, 2021, and a total amount of services of €8.73 billion to which Siemens
remains committed) ;
(ii) in addition to managed services, application management and systems integration projects
included in the initial contract, include in the scope of the Customer Relationship Agreement
Cloud, industrial data analytics, and cyber-security services.
The Board of Directors authorized this agreement at its meeting of November 3, 2015 and therefore
satisfied the condition precedent. This same agreement was approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting on
May 26, 2016.
This agreement continued during the year ended December 31, 2018, your Company considering that
volumes recorded during fiscal year 2018 between the group Atos and the group Siemens do not
question the achievement of these commitments by December 31, 2021.
b. Amendment to the Lock-Up Agreement entered into with Siemens AG

On May 20, 2011, Atos SE, Siemens AG and Siemens Beteiligungen Inland GmbH (“Siemens Inland”)
entered into a lock-up agreement (hereafter the “Lock-Up Agreement”) which provides for a lock-up
undertaking of Siemens AG and Siemens Inland on the participating interests held by Siemens Inland in
the share capital of Atos SE (12,483,153 shares) until June 30, 2016 (hereafter the “Lock-Up Period”).
Siemens Inland transferred this shareholding in the share capital of Atos SE to Siemens AG in December
2013.

In the context of the strengthening of the partnership between Atos and Siemens, as announced by the
parties in July 2015, Atos SE, Siemens AG and Siemens Inland entered, on October 30, 2015, into an
agreement called “Amendment to the Lock-Up Agreement”, subject to the condition precedent of the
authorization by the Board of Directors of the Company, for the purpose of amending the Lock-Up
Agreement as follows:
(i) extend the maturity date of the Lock-Up Period until September 30, 2020 (i.e. an additional lock-
up period of 4 years and 3 months) ;
(ii) provide for the possibility for Siemens AG or Siemens Inland, as from July 1, 2016, to transfer the
shares to two Siemens employees’ pension funds named Siemens Pension Trust e.V. and BSAV-
Trust e.V. (or to any investment fund or investment vehicle in which - directly or indirectly -
either or both of these pension trusts invest their assets provided that these pension trusts are
the only investors), subject to such transferee agreeing to abide by the Lock-Up Agreement.
Thus, on March 27, 2018, in connection with the funding of a pension plan by Siemens AG, Siemens AG
transferred, off-market, to Siemens Pension-Trust eV that it controls its entire participation in the
Company, corresponding to 12,483,153 Atos SE shares. As part of the transfer, Siemens Pension-Trust
eV signed on March 23, 2018 an act entitled "Joinder Agreement" under which Siemens Pension-Trust eV
agreed to be bound by all terms and conditions of the Lock-up Agreement.
The Board of Directors authorized this agreement at its meeting of November 3, 2015 and therefore
satisfied the condition precedent. This same agreement was approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting on
May 26, 2016.
This agreement continued during the year ended December 31, 2018.
B. which were not implemented during the year

Furthermore, we have been informed that the following commitment, already approved by the
Shareholders’ Meeting in previous years, was not implemented during the year.
Commitment concluded with Mr. Thierry Breton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer related
to the supplementary defined benefit pension plan
All Executive Committee members of Atos Group, including the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer,
provided that they finish their career at Atos SE or Atos International SAS, benefit from a supplementary
defined benefit pension plan. The implementation of this pension plan for the benefit of the current
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Thierry Breton, was authorized by the Board of Directors on
March 26, 2009, approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting on May 26, 2009 and then confirmed by the
Board of Directors on December 17, 2009.
Amendments (cap on the rights granted, performance conditions) have been brought to the defined
benefit pension plan, and are described in an agreement whose implementation to the benefit of the
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer was previously authorized by the Board of Directors at its meeting
of March 26, 2015 and approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting on May 28, 2015.

The Board of Directors, at its meeting of November 24, 2016, acknowledged the compliance of the
commitment with the Macron law (cap on the rights granted, performance conditions) and authorized its
continuance, without any modification, in the context of the renewal of the term as Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer of Mr. Thierry Breton. The continuance of this commitment was approved by the
Combined Shareholders’ Meeting on December 30, 2016.
The main characteristics of this amended pension scheme with defined benefits are presented hereafter:
a) Conditioning the acquisition of rights under the supplementary pension scheme to
performance conditions determined by the Board of Directors:
The Board of Directors has decided to condition the acquisition of rights under the supplementary
pension scheme to performance conditions under the following conditions:
- These performance conditions will be set annually by Atos SE’s Board of Directors which may in
particular refer to the performance conditions contained in stock option plans or free shares plans
or to any other condition which it will consider relevant.
- The Board of Directors checks on a yearly basis, prior to the Shareholders’ Meeting convened to
rule on the financial statements for the last financial year, that the conditions were indeed fulfilled
and determines the increase of conditional rights in favor of Mr. Thierry Breton for the said
financial year.
- Entire calendar quarters for periods after January 1, 2015 are only be taken into account to
assess the amount of the additional pension if they relate to a year during which the performance
conditions set by the Board of Directors will have been achieved. Failing that, the corresponding
quarters will not be taken into account to determine the additional pension.
- The periods prior to January 1, 2015 are also subject to performance conditions and will only be
taken into account to determine the amount of the additional pension if for each year, the
performance conditions then set by the Board of Directors, either for the vesting of stock-options
plans or for the vesting of free performance shares plans, were met.
Moreover, for the award of the additional annuity it is expected that at least two-thirds of the years
are validated under the performance conditions here above mentioned, during Mr. Thierry Breton’s
membership in the Executive Committee while performing his various terms of office. The Board of
Directors will meet at the end of the term of office of the concerned person to verify whether this
two-thirds requirement is satisfied. If that is the case, Mr. Thierry Breton will hence automatically
enjoy an additional pension. Failing that, he will not be provided with any additional annuity.
b) Other characteristics of the scheme:
- The membership requirement at the Executive Committee level is five years.

- The minimum age to benefit from the scheme is aligned on the statutory retirement age set by
article L.161-17-2 of the French Social Security Code (Code de la sécurité sociale).
- The age for liquidation of the supplementary pension is the age at which the person may liquidate
his full pension under the general scheme. This age cannot in any case be less than the one
foreseen in article L 161-17-2 of the French Social Security Code.
c) Terms and conditions for determining the amount of Mr. Thierry Breton’s additional
pension:
The annual additional pension amounts to 0.625% of the reference compensation per entire calendar
quarters of seniority recognized by the scheme. The reference compensation is the average of the
last sixty monthly compensation multiplied by twelve.
For the assessment of this reference compensation, only the followings are taken into account:
- The basic compensation of the Executive Director;
- The annual on-target bonus actually paid to the Executive Director excluding any other form of
variable compensation. This annual bonus is taken into account within the cap of 130% of the
basic compensation.

d) Cap of Mr. Thierry Breton’s additional pension:
The amount of the annual supplementary pension paid under the present scheme to Mr. Thierry
Breton cannot exceed the difference between:
- 33% of the reference compensation above mentioned,
- and the annual amount of the basic additional and supplementary pensions.
No right has been definitively acquired for the benefit of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer during
the year ended December 31, 2018.

Also Atos completed a € 1.8 billion bond issue in three instalments, which were admitted to Euronext

maturities of 3.5 years (0.75% coupon), 6.5 years (1.75%) and 10 years (2.5%).
Rules and accounting methods

The financial statements of Atos SE have been prepared in application with ANC 2014-03 and current
regulations with generally accepted accounting principles in France.
General conventions were applied, in the respect of:
• principle of prudence;
• principle of going concern;
• permanence of the accounting methods from one exercise to another;
• cut-off principle.
As a principle, items are booked in the accountancy based on the historical cost method.
The annual accounts are established and presented in thousands of euros.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets consist of software and merger deficit.
The software are booked at the acquisition cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over their expected
useful life.
Those assets are fully depreciated at December 31, 2018.
Tangible assets
There are no more assets at December 31st 2018.

Financial assets
Financial assets consist of participating interests and other financial investments (treasury stock, loans,
and deposits).
Participating interests are booked at their acquisition cost; an impairment loss is recognized when the
acquisition cost exceeds the value-in-use determined as follows:
• on the basis of the enterprise value for the operational subsidiaries and their holding entities based
on cash flow projections;
• on the basis of their part of interest in shareholding equities for the non-operational subsidiaries.
Loans are mainly intra-Group transactions.
Trade accounts and notes receivable

Trade accounts and notes receivable are recorded at their nominal value. They are calculated individually
and, if necessary, are subject to an impairment loss.
Trade accounts and notes receivable denominated in foreign currency are booked at their fair value at the
closing date. The difference between their historical value and their fair value at year-end is booked as
unrecognized exchange gain or loss.
Cash and cash equivalents

Treasury stocks are recorded at their acquisition cost in the context of a liquidity contract or in the
intention to grant them as free shares plan or stock-options plan.
For the shares acquired in the context of the liquidity contract a depreciation charge is recognized when
the carrying value exceeds the weighted average market price of Atos stock for the month of December.
Prepayments, deferred expenses

Deferred expenses relate exclusively to costs for issuing borrowings. Those costs are recognized over the
duration of the borrowings on a straight-line basis.
Provisions
The amount of the provisions is based on the best estimate of the outflow of resources necessary to
extinguish the underlying obligation.
When the participating interest is fully impaired, in addition to the depreciation of the related current
assets a provision for risk may be required when the carrying value exceeds the value in-use.
Bonds
Bond issues are recorded for their refund value at the date of receipt of the funds, the triger event.
Issue premiums are capitalized and amortized over the term of the loan.
Non-recurring items
Non-recurring items are made of incomes and expenses generated by operations which are unusual,
abnormal or infrequent in their magnitude or occurrence.

• € 22.6 million on bonds
• € -2.3 million on NEU CP – Negociable European Commercial Paper
• € 1.1 million on borrowing related to the purchase of Syntel

• € 1.4 million on syndicated loan
• € 1.9 million on bonds

the performance plan granted to employees and to the operations of merger and acquisitions.
The increase of exceptional income in 2018 compared to 2017 is due to the unwinding of several plans to
grant free shares to Group employees. Indeed, Atos SE re-invoiced their subsidiaries for a total amount
of €82.4 million in 2018, whereas it re-invoiced only €28.7 million in 2017.
The amount in “Other expenses” is mainly related to fees expensed in the take over of Syntel.

Note 15 Tax
Tax consolidation agreement

As per article 223-A of the French Fiscal Code, Atos SE signed a Group tax consolidation agreement with
a certain number of its French subsidiaries with effect as of January 1, 2001.
Atos SE as parent company of the Group is designated as the only entity liable for the corporate tax of
the Group tax consolidation.
The main features of the agreement are:
• The result of the consolidated companies is determined as if they had been taxed individually;
• Atos SE is the only company liable for any additional tax to be paid in the event of an exit by a
subsidiary from the Group. In the event of tax audit, the subsidiary which exited from the Group
remains liable toward Atos SE of any additional income tax related to the time it was part of the tax
consolidation.
Decrease and increase of the future tax charge of Atos SE taxed separately
At year end, decreases and increases of the future tax charge were broken down as follows:

After use of the losses carried forward the taxable profit 2018 was an amount of € 33.7 million with a tax
charge of € 11.6 million. The tax that would have been paid in the absence of French tax consolidation
would have been an expense of € 29.8 million.
The total amount of the losses carried forward was € 198.0 million as of December 31, 2018.

1 Borne by Atos SE

For various large long-term contracts, the Group provides performance guarantees to its clients. These
guarantees amount to € 3,341 million as of December 31, 2018, compared with € 4,226 million at the
end of December 2017. This decrease of € 885 million compared to last year is mainly due to the
expiration of some guarantees provided to the benefit of the US, UK and Benelux & the Nordics
customers.
In relation to the multi-currency revolving facility amended in October 2018, Atos SE issued a parental
guarantee to the benefit of the consortium of banks represented by BNP Paribas, in order to cover up to €
660.0 million (unchanged amount) the obligations of its subsidiaries: Atos Telco Services B.V. and Atos
International B.V.
In relation to the Term Facility agreement signed in July 2018 in the context of the Syntel acquisition
financing, Atos SE issued a parental guarantee to the benefit of the consortium of banks represented by
BNP Paribas, in order to cover USD 1,230 million (€ 1,078 million) the obligations of its US subsidiary,
Green Finco Inc. considering the partial reimbursement of USD 200 million (€ 175 million) as of
December 20th 2018.
Atos SE has given a € 102.0 million guarantee to Ester Finance in relation to a securitization program
involving certain of its subsidiaries. Guarantee amount decreased due to the restructuration of the
securitization program in May 2018.
As part of the general agreement with Siemens in respect of the transfer of SIS UK pension liabilities, the
Board of Atos SE, during its March 29, 2011 meeting, agreed to provide a 20-year guarantee to the Atos
2011 Pension Trust set up to accommodate the transfer. The maximum amount of the guarantee is GBP
200.0 million (€ 222 million).
In the framework of the Atos pension Scheme discussions in UK, for a more efficient structure, the board
of Atos SE, during its July 22th, 2018 meeting, agreed to provide three parental guarantees (amending
and extending those in force) to the Atos Pension Schemes Limited as trustee of the Atos Pension Fund
and the Atos (SEMA) Pension Schemes Limited and Atos CS Pension Scheme. Under the said guarantees,
Atos SE will guarantee the obligations of the sponsoring employers of the respective Pension Scheme to
make certain payments. The total estimated amount of the new guarantees when authorized by the
board of directors therefore represented an extension of 150 GBP (€166 million) to the existing
guarantees (totaling 635 GBP (€ 704 million)) which Atos SE had previously provided to the three
schemes.
Finally, in addition to the previous amounts, pension commitments are consistent with the pension
scheme described in section G.3.2.2 of the Atos Group 2018 registration document.

Credit risk
The Group has a fully-integrated process concerning credit risk. In its trade relations, the Group manages
its credit risk with a portfolio of diversified customers and follow-up tools.
Financially, the Group monitors the credit risk on its investments and its market operations by rigorously
selecting leading financial institutions and by using several banking partners. The Group thus considers
its credit risk exposure as being limited.
Market risk
The Group monetary assets comprise receivables and loans, securities investments and cash at bank.
Monetary liabilities comprise financial, operating and other liabilities.
Interest rate risk

The exposure to interest rate risk encompasses two types of risks:
• A price risk on fixed-rate financial assets and liabilities. For example, by contracting a fixed-rate
liability, the Company is exposed to potential opportunity losses should interest rates fall. A change in
interest rates would impact the market value of fixed-rate financial assets and liabilities. However,
this loss of opportunity would not impact financial income and expenses as reported in the Company’s
Income Statement and, as such, future net income of the Company up to maturity of these assets
and liabilities;
• A cash-flow risk on floating-rate financial assets and liabilities. The Company considers that a
variation in rates would have little effect on floating-rate financial assets and liabilities.
Note 18 Related parties
There is no transaction made by the Company (trade mark fees, financing operations and tax
consolidation) that were not performed under market conditions.
Note 19 Subsequent events
On January 29, 2019, Atos’ Board of Directors, following a specific governance process, proposed to
submit to its shareholders the project to distribute in kind around 23.4% of Worldline’s share capital, out
of the 50.8% currently owned by the Group. Post transaction, Atos would retain approximately 27.4% of
Worldline’s share capital and Worldline’s free float would be increased to approximately 45.7%. Following
the partial distribution, Worldline is expected to be deconsolidated from the Group’s accounts and Atos
remaining stake would be accounted for as an investment in associates under equity method.
Worldline’s Board of Directors met on January 29, 2019 and unanimously welcomed this planned change
in ownership structure.
The shareholders’ agreement between Atos and SIX will be amended to reflect the continued partnership
between the two groups post distribution, and both parties are expected to commit to a 6-month joint
lock-up on their respective stakes in Worldline post distribution.
Regarding the structure of the proposed distribution, Atos’ shareholders are expected to receive 2
Worldline shares for 5 Atos shares held. Technical terms of the proposed transaction are under review
and would be submitted to the vote of the Atos shareholders at the 2018 Annual General Meeting
planned on April 30, 2019.
