(A) | For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Group incurred (i) €56 million of interest related to Constellium N.V. Senior Notes and (ii) €2 million of interest expense and fees related to the Pan US ABL Facility.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Group incurred (i) €69 million of interest related to Constellium N.V. Senior Notes, (ii) €7 million of interest related to the Muscle Shoals Senior Notes and (iii) €3 million of interest expense and fees related to the Muscle Shoals and Ravenswood ABL Facilities.

U.S. Dollar Senior Notes, for the portion that has not been used to finance directly or indirectly U.S. Dollar functional currency entities.

U.S. Dollar Senior Notes revaluation.
