For more details, see “– Note 7: Acquisitions and Disposals”. Other expenses increased by €+174 million to € -356 million compared to € -182 million in 2018. 16.

For financial liabilities which are not measured at fair value through profit or loss €-339 million (2018: €-440 million) are recognised as total interest expenses. Both amounts are calculated by using the effective interest method. Total financial result improved by €+488 million to €-275 million compared to € -763 million in 2018. This is mainly due to the positive impact from foreign exchange valuation of monetary items for an amount of € 169 million and the revaluation from financial instruments of €408 million. The financial result includes the financial expense of € -112 million on hedge ineffectiveness (see “– Note 11: Revenue and Gross Margin”). 31 Airbus / Financial Statements 2019
