2.2Scope and method of consolidation

Accounting policy

In accordance with IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, an entity (subsidiary) is consolidated when it is controlled by the company (the parent).

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company has control. The Company controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and could affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company. They are deconsolidated from the date the control ceases.

All intercompany transactions, balances, and unrealized gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries are consistent with the policies adopted by the Company.

Consolidated entities

As of December 31, 2025, the scope of consolidation consists of two entities, the parent, Inventiva S.A. and its 100% owned subsidiary, Inventiva Inc., for which no non-controlling interest is recognized.

2.3Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is also the functional currency of the parent company, Inventiva S.A. The functional currency of Inventiva Inc. is the U.S. dollar. All amounts presented in these notes to the consolidated financial statements are denominated in euros unless otherwise stated.

Translation of financial statements into presentation currency

The results and financial position of foreign operations that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into euros, the presentation currency, as follows:

Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate on the date of that balance sheet,
Income and expenses for each statement of (income) loss and statement of comprehensive (income) loss are translated at average exchange rates (which is an approximate value of the exchange rate on the transaction date in the absence of significant fluctuations. Income and expenses are translated at the transaction dates if the exchange rates fluctuate significantly), and
All resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.
