In certain countries, leases for stores entail the payment of both minimum amounts and variable amounts, especially for stores with lease payments indexed to revenue. As required by IFRS 16 — Leases, only the minimum fixed lease payments are capitalized as lease liabilities.
Additions during the period were primarily attributable to the extension of certain lease agreements aimed at securing long-term presence in prime retail locations in the United States and Europe.
For information relating to the contractual maturities of lease liabilities, see Note 15 — Borrowings.
