Research tax credit

The research tax credit due for 2018 was received on November 18, 2019.

The research tax credit receivable of €9,585 as of December 31, 2019 includes:

 

 

a partial payment of the assessment (€333 ) due to an ongoing tax audit

 

the balance of the amount due for the 2014 fiscal year (€1,140 )

 

the balance of the amount due for the 2016 fiscal year (€447), the two amounts are used as partial compensation with the assessment notices and the tax notice related to the 2014 CIR, as described in Note 24, "Litigation and contingent liabilities";

 

the amount received following the favorable decision of the Montreuil court (€432) and (€29) having been deducted and

 

in addition to the amount related to the dispute with the French tax authorities discussed in note 24 “Litigation and contingent liabilities” should be added to the amount of the 2019 research tax credit of €8.125 million.

A provision of €1,892 was recognized at the closing, including an allocation of €1,785 during the first half of 2019 and appears as a liability in the consolidated statement of financial position in relation to the Research Tax Credit dispute (see note 19 herein).
