Non-recurring items are exceptional gains and costs that are not related to normal business operations and occur only seldom. These items include capital gains or losses, significant changes in asset values such as write-downs or reversals of write-downs, significant restructuring costs, or other items that the management considers to be non-recurring. When evaluating a non-recurring item, the euro translation value of the item is considered, and in case of a change in an asset value, it is measured against the total value of the asset.
In 2014 the result of Wireless Business Segment reported non-recurring items as follows:
- Non-recurring income of approximately EUR 1.1 million resulting from the reorganization cases of TerreStar companies during the third quarter of the year
- Non-recurring costs of EUR 0.6 million resulting from Wireless Business Segment“s personnel layoffs and from the acquisition costs of SafeMove during the last quarter
