Nine-month report 2013 DES Nine-month report 2013 { 10 } Disclosures Reporting principles These interim financial statements of the Deutsche EuroShop Group as at 30 September 2013 have been prepared in accordance with Inter- national Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The management report and the abridged financial statements were not audited in accordance with section 317 of the Handelsgesetzbuch (HGB – German Commercial Code), nor were they reviewed by a person qualified to carry out audits. In the opinion of the Executive Board, the report contains all of the necessary adjustments required to give a true and fair view of the results of operations as at the date of the interim report. The performance for the first nine months up to 30 September 2013 is not necessarily an indication of future per- formance. The accounting policies applied correspond to those used in the last consolidated financial statements as at the end of the financial year. A detailed description of the methods applied was published in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for 2012. Changes made to the accounting policies after 1 January 2013 are explained in the following. Changes in Accounting Policies Switch to the equity method as of 1 January 2013 Joint ventures in which Deutsche EuroShop AG has a majority of the voting rights together with third parties were previously pro- portionately included as joint ventures in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the option granted by IAS 31. Pro- portional consolidation is now discontinued given the adoption of the new IFRS 11. In future, joint ventures will always be accounted for using the equity method. Adoption of this standard is compulsory as of 1 January 2014. In our 2011 annual report, we had already announced the early adoption of IFRS 11 as of 2013. The transition from proportional to equity accounting has an impact on the structure of our consolidated financial statements. Under the equity method, assets, liabilities, expenses and income are no longer recognised proportionally in the corresponding balance sheet or income statement items. The balance sheet only shows equity interest as a car- rying amount and the profit share is recorded as investment income in the income statement (financial result).
