Provisions for real estate-related obligations primarily concern reinstatement obligations in the amount of €22 million (30/9/2019: €15 million), dismantling and removing obligations in the amount of €21 million (30/9/2019: €22 million) and rental commitments in the amount of €6 million (30/9/2019: €7 million). The due date of the property-related provisions depends on the remaining term of the lease agreements.
The most significant component of provisions for obligations from trade transactions are risks from subsequent charges to suppliers. Supplementary components are provisions for warranties amounting to €1 million (30/9/2019: €1 million).
The main components of the remaining provisions are provisions in the amount of €113 million (30/9/2019: €0 million) relating to the disposals of subsidiaries, provisions for litigation costs/risks in the amount of €48 million (30/9/2019: €48 million), the provisions for long-term remuneration in the amount of €31 million (30/9/2019: €18 million) and provisions for guarantee and warranty risks amounting to €11 million (30/9/2019: €18 million). The cash outflow estimate for provisions for litigation costs/risks was based on the expected duration of litigation. The provisions for long-term remuneration components are due in the years 2021 to 2023.
- For more information about the long-term remuneration components, see no. 52 – long-term incentive for executives.
Depending on the respective term and country, interest rates for non-interest-bearing, non-current provisions range from 0.00% to 5.60%.
