In June 2020, the Parent signed a sale agreement with a third party for the disposal of the land located in the “Santeramo in Colle-Iesce” area, just a few miles away from its headquarters. The cash consideration received by the Parent for such disposal amounts to 2,800. Following such disposal, the Parent realised a loss of 557. Furthermore, if certain conditions included in this sale agreement are met, in the next two years the Parent could receive additional consideration of about 2,500 from the acquirer.

As at December 31, 2020 and 2019, the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment temporarily idle is of 5,247 and 10,468, respectively.

As at December 31, 2020 the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment reclassified to the caption “assets held for sale” is of 3,324 (cost of 27,182 and accumulated depreciation of 23,858). For further details on such reclassifications see note 7.

As at December 31, 2020, properties with a carrying amount of 45,519 (47,865 as at December 31, 2019) are subject to registered mortgages to guarantee the long-term borrowings (see note 19).

As at December 31, 2020, the Group performed the impairment assessment of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets included in several cash generating units (CGUs), such as the Italian upholstered furniture plant CGU and certain directly operated retail stores CGUs that presented indicators of impairment. The Group performed the impairment assessment in accordance with its accounting policy discussed in note 4(i). In particular, an impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of a CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher of its value in use, determined using a discounted cash flow method, and its fair value less costs to sell.

Further, the significant assumptions used by the Group in estimating the value in use were the annual sales growth rates used to estimate the forecasted revenue for the years 2021-2025, the weighted average cost of capital rates and the long-term growth rates, all of which were determined at CGU level, including the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the duration of the resulting economic downturn. Such significant assumptions involved a high degree of subjectivity by management and reasonably possible changes to these assumptions had a significant effect on the value in use. Specifically, such assumptions were based on the Group’s future business performances and other forward-looking assumptions that entail significant judgments by management and were heavily impacted by several external events. Finally, cash flow projections for the years 2021-2025 have been derived from the business plan approved by the Board of Directors and forecasts have been developed taking into consideration the track records of actual results reported by the Group.

For property, plant and equipment temporarily idle, the fair value less costs to sell was estimated through independent third-party appraisals, which assessed the fair value of land and buildings using the comparable market method and assessed the fair value of machinery and equipment using the depreciated replacement cost method, adjusted for an obsolescence rate and a marketability rate.

As a result of the 2020 and 2019 impairment assessment performed by the Group, no impairment losses have emerged for property, plant and equipment.
