4.2 IMPAIRMENT OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS WITH AN INDEFINITE USEFUL LIFE The caption Brands, which has an indefinite useful life, has not been amortised, but has been tested for impairment by management.
The impairment tests on the Moncler brand and on the Stone Island brand were performed by comparing its carrying value with that derived from the discounted cash flow method applying the Royalty Relief Method, based on which the cash flows are linked to the recognition of a royalty percentage applied to revenues that the brand is able to generate.
For the 2023 valuation of the Moncler and Stone Island brand, the expected cash flows and revenues are based on the 2024-2026 Business Plan approved by the Board of directors on 14 december 2023 and for 2027-2028 on the basis of management estimates consistent with the expected development plans.
The g rate used was 2.5%. The discount rate was calculated using the Weighted Average
Cost of Capital (WACC), by weighting the expected rate of return on invested capital, net of hedging costs from a sample of companies within the same industry. The calculation took into account fluctua- tion in the market as compared to the previous year and the result- ing impact on interest rates. The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) was calculated at 8.9% for the Moncler brand and at 9.5% for Stone Island.
The results of the sensitivity analysis indicated that the car- rying amount of the Moncler brand is confirmed in all scenarios of reasonable changes of the benchmarks. The Stone Island brand up to a WACC of 9.7%, all other parameters being equal.
3.6 INCOME TAX
The tax impact on the income statement is detailed as follows:
(Euro/000) 2023 2022 Current income taxes (30,064) (209,134) deferred tax income (expenses) (44,622) 214,879 Income taxes charged in the income statement (74,686) 5,745
In 2022, income taxes reflected the one-off positive net impact of the realignment of the tax value of the Stone Island brand equal to eUR 92.3 million. This operation entailed the payment of a substi- tute tax for 16% of the brand s value, equal to eUR 124.1 million, registered under current taxes and the release of eUR 216.4 million in previously-recognised deferred taxes payable.
