(1) Includes amortization of the customer relationships recorded after the purchase price allocation, amounting to 985 million euros in 2023 (1,005 million euros in 2022).
(2) VMO2 entered into various derivative instruments to manage interest rate exposure and foreign currency exposure. Generally, VMO2 does not apply hedge accounting to its derivative instruments. Accordingly, changes in the fair values of most of its derivatives are recorded in the finance results of its consolidated income statement.
(3) Amount related to incentive awards held by certain employees of VMO2 associated with ordinary shares of Liberty Global and Telefónica. Share-based compensation expense is included in Operating expenses in the consolidated income statement of VMO2.
(4) In 2023 VMO2 sold a minority interest in its mobile towers joint operation Cornerstone. This amount reflects the change in the Telefónica Group's indirect ownership interest in Cornerstone (from 25% to 16.67%) resulting from the inflow of resources from a third party.
