Mr Hoogervorst began with an overview of the PFS project and provided comments related to new subtotals, such as operating profit and profit before financing and tax. He also discussed the need for greater transparency and discipline in the use of non-GAAP measures.
Next, Mr Hoogervorst commented on management commentary to provide broader financial information, such as the impact of intangible assets. In addition, the project will revise the Practice Statement to accommodate the increase in interest in sustainability reporting.
Lastly, he agreed with the Eumedion’s green paper, Towards a global standard-setter for non-financial reporting, which called for the need for consolidation in non-financial reporting.
