(10) Adjusted net profit - continuing operations is calculated as Net profit from continuing operations excluding post-tax impacts of the same items excluded from Adjusted EBIT - continuing operations, as well as financial income/(expenses) and tax income/(expenses) considered rare or discrete events that are infrequent in nature. Adjusted net profit includes both Adjusted net profit - continuing operations and Adjusted net profit - discontinued operations; (11) Adjusted diluted EPS - continuing operations is calculated by adjusting Diluted EPS for the post-tax impact of the same items excluded from Adjusted EBIT - continuing operations, as well as financial income/(expenses) and tax income/(expenses) considered rare or discrete events that are infrequent in nature. Adjusted diluted EPS includes both Adjusted diluted EPS - continuing operations and Adjusted diluted EPS - discontinued operations.

(12) Excludes certain debt securities held pursuant to applicable regulations (€69 million at September 30, 2018, €67 million at June 30, 2018 and €59 million at December 31, 2017); (13) Net industrial cash/(debt) is computed as: Debt plus derivative financial liabilities related to industrial activities less (i) cash and cash equivalents, (ii) certain current debt securities, (iii) current financial receivables from Group or jointly controlled financial services entities and (iv) derivative financial assets and collateral deposits; therefore, debt, cash and cash equivalents and other financial assets/liabilities pertaining to financial services entities are excluded from the computation of Net industrial cash/(debt). Net industrial cash/(debt) should not be considered as a substitute for cash flows or other financial measures under IFRS; in addition, Net industrial cash/(debt) depends on the amount of cash and cash equivalents at each balance sheet date, which may be affected by the timing of monetization of receivables and the payment of accounts payable, as well as changes in other components of working capital, which can vary from period to period due to, among other things, cash management initiatives and other factors, some of which may be outside of the Group’s control. Net industrial cash/(debt) should therefore be evaluated alongside these other measures as reported under IFRS for a more complete view of the Company’s capital structure and liquidity; (14) Industrial free cash flows is calculated as Cash flows from operating activities less: cash flows from operating activities related to financial services, net of eliminations; Investment in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets for industrial activities; and adjusted for discretionary pension contributions in excess of those required by the pension plans.
