(*) The Group monitors the key figures of Lane Group for management purposes adjusting the IFRS figures prepared for consolidation purposes to present the results of the non-subsidiary joint ventures consolidated on a proportionate basis. These figures show the status of contracts managed directly by Lane Group or through non-controlling investments in joint ventures (**) The figures shown are adjusted economic data of the effects of the Settlement Agreement with Società Italiana per Condotte d'Acqua S.p.A. in A.S. ("Condotte") which, during the first half of 2020, entailed the recognition of a total amount of € 81 million to Condotte, of which € 66 million through the waiver of the Consortium's receivables from Condotte itself and € 15 million through cash payments. Considering that, at December 31, 2019, a bad debt provision of € 46 million had been posted, the overall effect of the settlement agreement is a charge of € 35 million, of which € 20 million as a loss on receivables - resulting from the waiver to the credit of 66 million net of the use of the aforementioned fund - and € 15 million classified under various management charges, as a transaction charge
