The Group’s brands and trade names are organized into six
business groups. Four business groups – Wines and Spirits,
Fashion and Leather Goods, Perfumes and Cosmetics and
Watches and Jewelry – comprise brands dealing with the same
category of products that use similar production and distribution
processes. The Selective Retailing business comprises the Group’s
own-label retailing activities. Other activities and holding
companies comprise brands and businesses that are not associated
with any of the above mentioned business groups, most often
relating to the Group’s new businesses and holding or real
estate companies.

SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Group, mainly through its Watches and Jewelry business
group, may be exposed to changes in the prices of certain
precious metals, such as gold. In certain cases, in order to ensure
visibility with regard to production costs, hedges may be
implemented. This is achieved either by negotiating the forecast
price of future deliveries of alloys with precious metal refiners,
or the price of semi-finished products with producers; or
directly by purchasing hedges from top-ranking banks. In the
latter case, gold may be purchased from banks, or future and/or
options contracts may be taken out with a physical delivery
of the gold. Derivatives outstanding relating to the hedging of
precious metal prices as of December 31, 2015 have a negative
market value of 2 million euros. Considering nominal values
of 145 million euros for those derivatives, a uniform 1% change
in their underlying assets’ prices as of December 31, 2015 would
have a net impact on the Group’s consolidated reserves in an
amount of less than 1.5 million euros. These instruments mature
in 2016.
