The introduction of IFRS 16 (related with the accounting treatment of contracts that qualify as leases and eliminates the distinction between financing and operating leases, thus leading to the booking of leases with a term of more than twelve months as right-of-use assets in the balance sheet and to the booking of the expenses as depreciations and amortisations as well as in financial results in the P&L as of 1 January 2019) led to a immaterial impact on consolidated accounts at the EBIT level. 2018 figures were not re-expressed to simulate to impacts on IFRS 16 on last year's numbers.
Net financial results improved 14% to € -1.4 million, benefiting from lower interest costs.

Plural continues to be one the main players in the audiovisual production sector, also with a relevant presence in the associated technical services/equipment and scenic design and construction.
