Currency translation reserve adjustment: Other comprehensive income/(loss) includes gains and losses from the revaluation of the currency translation reserve, arising from the conversion of subsidiaries’ financial statements denominated in their functional currencies into the holding company’s reporting currency during consolidation. Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing exchange rate on the reporting date, while income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate for the reporting period. A positive change in the reserve occurs when the functional currencies of subsidiaries depreciate against the holding company’s reporting currency.

* Earnings are calculated based on the basic weighted average number of shares outstanding of 59.9 million.
