To estimate the FFO/Net debt ratio for 2022 using S&P’s methodology, we first need to identify the appropriate figures for “Funds from Operations” (FFO) and “Net Debt”. **Step 1 – Determine FFO** In S&P’s approach, FFO is approximated by net cash generated from operating activities (CFO). The cash‑flow statement for 2022 shows: - Cash Flows from Operating Activities (CFO): **€4,242 million** This figure already includes interest paid, taxes paid and working‑capital changes, which aligns with S&P’s definition of FFO. **Step 2 – Compute Net Debt** Net debt is total interest‑bearing debt minus cash and cash equivalents. Using the balance‑sheet data at the end of 2022 (i.e., 2023‑01‑01): - Long‑term borrowings: €12,689 M - Current portion of non‑current borrowings: €2,110 M - Non‑current lease liabilities: €1,309 M - Current lease liabilities: €177 M **Total debt** = 12,689 + 2,110 + 1,309 + 177 = **€16,285 M** - Cash and cash equivalents: €3,985 M **Net debt** = 16,285 – 3,985 = **€12,300 M** **Step 3 – Calculate the ratio** \[ \text{FFO / Net debt} = \frac{4,242}{12,300} \approx 0.345 \] Rounded to three decimal places, the ratio is **0.345**. 0.345
