MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Russia & Ukraine Crisis
In response to the on-going Russia-Ukraine conflict, various governments around the world have applied economic, trade and financial sanctions against Russia.
In Russia, we have a joint venture assembly plant, accounted for as a joint operation, as well as, national sales companies. In March 2022, the import and export of vehicles to and from Russia were suspended by Stellantis. In April 2022, operations at the joint venture assembly plant were suspended. In Ukraine, we have a national sales company. Our activities in Russia and Ukraine are not material to our net assets, financial position or results of operations.
FCA - PSA merger
On December 17, 2019, FCA and PSA entered into a combination agreement providing for the combination of FCA and PSA through a cross-border merger, with FCA as the surviving legal entity in the merger (“Stellantis N.V.”).
On September 14, 2020, FCA and PSA agreed to amend the combination agreement. According to the combination agreement amendment, the FCA extraordinary dividend, to be paid to former FCA shareholders was reduced to €2.9 billion, with PSA’s 46 percent stake in Faurecia S.E. (“Faurecia”) planned to be distributed to all Stellantis shareholders promptly after closing following approval of the Stellantis board and shareholders.
On January 4, 2021, PSA and FCA held their respective extraordinary general shareholder meetings in order to, among other matters, approve the merger transaction. The respective shareholder meetings approved the merger. Following the respective shareholder approvals and receipt of the final regulatory clearances, FCA and PSA completed the legal merger.
The conditions agreed to as part of the regulatory clearance did not have a material impact on the cash flows or
financial positions for the Company.
On January 17, 2021, the board of directors was appointed, the Stellantis articles of association became effective and the combined company was renamed Stellantis. On this date, the Stellantis management and board of directors collectively obtained the power and the ability to control the assets, liabilities and operations of both FCA and PSA. As such, under IFRS 3 - Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”), January 17, 2021 is the acquisition date for the business combination.
On January 29, 2021, the approximately €2.9 billion extraordinary distribution was paid to holders of FCA common shares of record as of the close of business on Friday, January 15, 2021.
Identification of the accounting acquirer
The merger was accounted for by Stellantis using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with IFRS 3, which requires the identification of the acquirer and the acquiree for accounting purposes. Based on the assessment of the indicators under IFRS 3 and consideration of all pertinent facts and circumstances, management determined that PSA is the acquirer for accounting purposes and as such, the merger has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition. In identifying PSA as the acquiring entity, notwithstanding that the merger was effected through an issuance of FCA shares, the most significant indicators were (i) the composition of the combined group’s board, composed of eleven directors, six of whom were to be nominated by PSA, PSA shareholders or PSA employees, or were current PSA executives, (ii) the combined group’s first CEO, who is vested with the full authority to individually represent the combined group, and was the president of the PSA Managing Board prior to the merger, and (iii) the payment of a premium by pre-merger shareholders of PSA.
Faurecia Distribution
On January 25, 2021, an extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders was convened in order to approve the distribution by Stellantis to the holders of its common shares of up to 54,297,006 ordinary shares of Faurecia (an automotive equipment supplier) and up to €308 million, which are the proceeds received by Peugeot S.A. in November 2020 from the sale of certain ordinary shares of Faurecia. The distribution represented the legacy PSA ownership in Faurecia and approximately 39 percent of the share capital of Faurecia and became unconditional on March 10, 2021, with (i) ex-date on Monday, March 15, 2021; and (ii) record date on Tuesday, March 16, 2021. Holders of Stellantis common shares were entitled to: (i) 0.017029 ordinary shares of Faurecia; and (ii) €0.096677 for each common share of Stellantis they hold on the record date for the Distribution. The distribution occurred on March 22, 2021, resulting in 53,130,574 ordinary shares of Faurecia and €302 million in cash distributed. The Company lost control of Faurecia on January 11, 2021.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
This Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information has been prepared to give effect to completion of the merger of PSA and FCA to create Stellantis, which was completed on January 17, 2021, as if it had been completed on January 1, 2020. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information includes the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the related explanatory notes (the “Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information”). The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information has been prepared for illustrative purposes only with the aim to provide comparative period income statement information, and does not necessarily represent what the actual results of operations would have been had the merger been completed on January 1, 2020. Additionally, the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information does not attempt to represent, or be an indication of, the future results of operations or cash flows of Stellantis. No pro forma statement of financial position has been presented as the effects of the merger have been reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position of Stellantis as of December 31, 2021. Please refer to the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of December 31, 2021 included elsewhere within this Semi-Annual Report for additional information.
Refer to the section FCA - PSA merger included above for information on the reverse acquisition presentation of the financial statements.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information presented herein is derived from (i) the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Income Statement of Stellantis for the six months ended June 30, 2021 included elsewhere in this report and (ii) FCA’s accounting records for the period from January 1, 2021 to January 16, 2021. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements referenced above and the accompanying notes thereto, as well as the other information contained in this Semi-Annual Report.
The consolidated financial statements of Stellantis and FCA are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union. There is no effect on the consolidated financial statements resulting from differences between IFRS as issued by the IASB and IFRS as adopted by the European Union. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information is prepared on a basis that is consistent with the accounting policies used in the preparation of the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Stellantis as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 included elsewhere in this report.
The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted in the accompanying Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information to give effect to unaudited pro forma events that are directly attributable to the merger and factually supportable. Specifically, the pro forma adjustments relate to the following:
•The purchase price allocation, primarily to reflect adjustments to depreciation and amortization associated with the acquired property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with a finite useful life, as well as a reduction in the interest expense related to the fair value adjustment to financial liabilities.
•The alignment of accounting policies of FCA to those applied by Stellantis.
•The elimination of intercompany transactions between FCA and PSA.
The pro forma adjustments relate to the period from January 1, 2021 to January 16, 2021.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information does not reflect any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies or cost savings that may be achieved, or any integration costs that may be incurred, following the completion of the merger.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Note 1 – Stellantis
This column is the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Income Statement of Stellantis for the six months ended June 30, 2021, included elsewhere within this Semi-Annual Report.
Note 2 – FCA Historical
This column represents the FCA results for the period from January 1, 2021 to January 16, 2021, as derived from FCA’s accounting records.
Note 3 – Purchase Price Allocation
As noted in the introduction to this Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information, the merger has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with IFRS 3, with PSA identified as the accounting acquirer (reverse acquisition accounting). The acquisition method of accounting under IFRS 3 applies the fair value concepts defined in IFRS 13 and requires, among other things, that the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in a business combination be recognized by the acquirer at their fair values as of the merger date, which for accounting purposes was January 17, 2021. As a result, the acquisition method of accounting has been applied and the assets and liabilities of FCA have been recognized at the merger acquisition date at their respective fair values, with limited exceptions as permitted by IFRS 3. The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of FCA’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information reflects the effects of the purchase accounting adjustments, where applicable, on the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as if the merger had occurred on January 1, 2020.
The following tables provide a summary of the pro forma effects of the purchase price allocation adjustments in the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
For the period January 1 - 16, 2021
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Net profit | | € | 36 | | | € | 47 | | | € | 18 | | | € | 5 | | | € | 106 | |
The pro forma adjustments are described in further detail below.
A.Intangible assets
The fair value of brands (Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Fiat, Maserati, Alfa Romeo and Mopar) was determined through an income approach based on the relief from royalty method, which requires an estimate of future expected cash flows. The useful life associated with the brands is determined to be indefinite. For capitalized development expenditures, the fair value has been assessed according to a multi-criteria approach based on relief from royalty method and an excess-earning method. The fair value for the Dealer network has been assessed using the replacement cost method. The fair value of reacquired rights has been valued based on the discounted cash flows expected from the related agreement.
Amortization of intangible assets has been calculated on the fair value taking into account the estimated remaining useful life of the acquired assets. The related change in amortization as a result of the fair value adjustment to intangible assets was a net decrease in amortization expense of €40 million for the period January 1 to January 16, 2021, which has been recorded within Research and development costs in relation to capitalized research and development costs and other intangible assets.
B.Property, plant and equipment
The fair value of property, plant and equipment was determined primarily through the replacement cost method, which requires an estimation of the physical, functional and economic obsolescence of the related assets. A market approach, which requires the comparison of the subject assets to transactions involving comparable assets, was applied to determine the fair value of land. The fair value of certain assets was determined through an income approach.
Depreciation has been calculated on the fair value taking into account the estimated remaining useful life of the acquired assets. The related change in depreciation as a result of the fair value adjustment to property, plant and equipment was a decrease in depreciation expense of €47 million for the period January 1 to January 16, 2021, of which €45 million has been recorded within Cost of revenues and €2 million within Selling, general and other costs in the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information.
C.Financial liabilities
Purchase price adjustments were recognized to step up to fair value the financial liabilities based on quoted market prices for listed debt and based on discounted cash flow models for debt that is not listed. The fair value adjustments to financial liabilities resulted in a decrease in interest expense due to the decrease of the effective interest rate based on current market conditions of €21 million for the period January 1 to January 16, 2021 and has been recorded within Net financial income (expense) in the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information.
D.Other
Primarily reflects:
•the recognition of additional revenue of €2 million for the period January 1 to January 16, 2021, as a result of a step up to fair value of deferred revenue relating to extended warranty service contracts, as well as additional finance costs of €4 million for the period January 1 to January 16, 2021, due to the recognition of the fair value adjustments of the related liabilities.
•the reversal of the impact on cost of revenues of €7 million for the period January 1 to January 16, 2021 of certain prepaid assets that were written off as part of the purchase price allocation.
The step up in the value of inventories has not been recognized as a pro forma adjustment as this impact has been recognized in Stellantis results for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
E.Tax expense
Represents the tax effects on the pro forma adjustments reflected in the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement, calculated based on statutory tax rates applicable in the relevant jurisdictions.
Note 4 – Other Adjustments
Other adjustments include the elimination of the intercompany transactions with Sevel in the Stellantis Consolidated Income Statement for the six months ended June 30, 2021 of €6 million. Sevel is a joint operation that was previously owned 50 percent each by both PSA and FCA. Upon completion of the merger, Stellantis holds 100 percent of Sevel, which is fully consolidated from that date.
Note 5 - Pro Forma Earnings per Share
Pro Forma basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Pro Forma Net profit from continuing operations attributable to the owners of the parent by the Pro Forma weighted average number of shares outstanding, as adjusted for the merger.
Pro Forma diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the historical diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding with the Pro Forma weighted average number of dilutive shares outstanding, as adjusted for the merger.
Refer to Note 20 - Earnings per share, included within the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included within this report for additional detail on the calculation of earnings per share.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We monitor our operations through the use of several non-generally accepted accounting principles (“non-GAAP”) financial measures: Adjusted operating income, Industrial free cash flows and Industrial net financial position. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful and relevant information regarding our operating results and enhance the overall ability to assess our financial performance. They provide us with comparable measures which facilitate management’s ability to identify operational trends, as well as make decisions regarding future spending, resource allocations and other operational decisions. These and similar measures are widely used in the industry in which we operate, however, these financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and are not intended to be substitutes for measures of financial performance as prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), as well as IFRS as adopted by the European Union.
Adjusted operating income: Adjusted operating income/(loss) excludes from Net profit/(loss) from continuing operations adjustments comprising restructuring, impairments, asset write-offs, disposals of investments and unusual operating income/(expense) that are considered rare or discrete events and are infrequent in nature, as inclusion of such items is not considered to be indicative of the Company's ongoing operating performance, and also excludes Net financial expenses/(income), Tax expense/(benefit) and Share of the profit/(loss) of equity method investees.
Unusual operating income/(expense) are impacts from strategic decisions, as well as events considered rare or discrete and infrequent in nature, as inclusion of such items is not considered to be indicative of the Company's ongoing operating performance. Unusual operating income/(expense) includes, but may not be limited to:
•Impacts from strategic decisions to rationalize Stellantis’ core operations,
•Facility-related costs stemming from Stellantis’ plans to match production capacity and cost structure to market demand, and
•Convergence and integration costs directly related to significant acquisitions or mergers.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, Pro Forma Adjusted operating income includes the Adjusted operating income of FCA for the period January 1 - January 16, 2021.
Adjusted operating income is used for internal reporting to assess performance and as part of the Company's forecasting, budgeting and decision making processes as it provides additional transparency to the Company's core operations. We believe this non-GAAP measure is useful because it excludes items that we do not believe are indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance and allows management to view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and benchmark performance between periods and among our segments. We also believe that Adjusted operating income is useful for analysts and investors to understand how management assesses the Company’s ongoing operating performance on a consistent basis. In addition, Adjusted operating income is one of the metrics used in the determination of the annual performance bonus for the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and other eligible employees, including members of the Top Executive Team.
Refer to the sections Company Results and Results by Segment below for further discussion and for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to Net profit from continuing operations, which is the most directly comparable measure included in our Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Income Statement. Adjusted operating income should not be considered as a substitute for Net profit from continuing operations, cash flow or other methods of analyzing our results as reported under IFRS.
Industrial free cash flows: is our key cash flow metric and is calculated as Cash flows from operating activities less: cash flows from operating activities from discontinued operations; cash flows from operating activities related to financial services, net of eliminations; investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets for industrial activities; contributions of equity to joint ventures and minor acquisitions of consolidated subsidiaries and equity method and other investments; adjusted for: net intercompany payments between continuing operations and discontinued operations, proceeds from disposal of assets and contributions to defined benefit pension plans, net of tax. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, Pro Forma Industrial free cash flows include the Industrial free cash flows of FCA for the period January 1 - January 16, 2021. The timing of Industrial free cash flows may be affected by the timing of monetization of receivables and the payment of accounts payables, as well as changes in other components of working capital, which can vary from period to period due to, among other things, cash management initiatives and other factors, some of which may be outside of the Company’s control. In addition, Industrial free cash flows is one of the metrics used in the determination of the annual performance bonus for the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and other eligible employees, including members of the Top Executive Team.
Refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources —Industrial free cash flows for further information and the reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to Cash flows from operating activities, which is the most directly comparable measure included in our Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Industrial free cash flows should not be considered as a substitute for Net profit from continuing operations, cash flow or other methods of analyzing our results as reported under IFRS.
Industrial net financial position is calculated as: Debt plus derivative financial liabilities related to industrial activities less (i) cash and cash equivalents, (ii) financial securities that are considered liquid, (iii) current financial receivables from the Company or its jointly controlled financial services entities and (iv) derivative financial assets and collateral deposits; therefore, debt, cash and cash equivalents and other financial assets/liabilities pertaining to Stellantis’ financial services entities are excluded from the computation of the Industrial net financial position. Industrial net financial position includes the Industrial net financial position classified as held for sale. We believe Industrial net financial position is useful in providing a measure of the Company’s net cash, considering cash and cash equivalents and financial securities. Due to different sources of cash flows used for the repayment of the financial debt between industrial activities and financial services (by cash from operations for industrial activities and by collection of financial receivables for financial services) and the different business structure and leverage implications, we provide a separate analysis of Net financial position between industrial activities and financial services. Refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources —Industrial net financial position for further information.

€ | 431 | | | € | 217 | | | 98.6 | % | | Net financial expenses | | € | 229 | | | 88.2 | % |
The increase in Net financial expenses on an IFRS basis during six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the IFRS and Pro Forma basis for the corresponding period in 2021, primarily reflects the cost of hedging and currency depreciation in Argentina and the increased interest levels in Brazil, as well as the application of hyperinflationary accounting for entities whose functional currency is the Turkish Lira.
Tax expense

20.1 | % | | 24.3 | % | | | | Effective tax rate | | 24.1 | % | | |
The effective tax rate was 20.1 percent and 24.3 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The Pro Forma effective tax rate was 24.1 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
The decrease in the effective tax rate on an IFRS basis during six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the IFRS and Pro Forma basis for the corresponding period in 2021, is primarily related to the deferred tax asset adjustments in the UK and Germany as a result of the merger in 2021 along with increased tax benefits in the U.S. and Argentina in the six months ended June 30, 2022. This is partially offset by additional U.S. earnings taxed at approximately 24 percent blended U.S. corporate and state statutory tax rate.
As of December 31, 2021 deferred tax assets were recognized, mainly in France, Germany and Spain, based on forecasted profitability estimated according to the last available medium-term plan. We will continue to use this data to measure and assess Stellantis deferred tax asset recognition until there is sufficient evidence to support changes in our recognition position. During the second half of 2022, we expect to have additional information and there is a possibility that this may represent sufficient positive evidence to allow us to conclude that a significant portion of additional deferred tax assets may be recognized. Further deferred tax asset recognition would result in a tax benefit during the period in which the recognition is recorded. However, the exact timing and amount of the deferred tax asset recognition is subject to change on the basis of the level of profitability we are able to achieve and forecast, and are not known at this time.

The decrease in the Share of the profit of equity method investees on an IFRS basis during six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the IFRS and Pro Forma basis for the corresponding period in 2021, was primarily due to the impairment related to GAC Fiat Chrysler Automobiles Co., Ltd (“GAC-Stellantis JV”) for an amount of €297 million (refer to Note 2 - Scope of consolidation within the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report for additional information).

The increase in Net profit from continuing operations on an IFRS basis during six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the IFRS and Pro Forma basis for the corresponding period in 2021, primarily due to higher operating performance particularly in North America and South America which is partially offset by higher net financial expenses and lower share of profit of equity method investees.

Shipments
The increase in North America shipments on an IFRS basis in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the IFRS and Pro Forma basis for the corresponding period in 2021 was mainly due to strong demand for the all-new Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer, mid-cycle refresh of Jeep Compass, all-new Jeep Grand Cherokee L and Chrysler Pacifica, partially offset by lower volumes of Ram pickups, Dodge Durango and discontinuation of the prior generation of Grand Cherokee.
Net revenues
The increase in North America Net revenues on an IFRS basis in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the IFRS and Pro Forma basis for the corresponding period in 2021 is primarily due to higher volumes, strong net pricing, favorable vehicle mix and positive foreign exchange translation effects.

In China we manufactured and distributed various Jeep models through our 50 percent owned GAC-Stellantis JV. In January 2022, we announced a plan to increase our shareholding with GAC-Stellantis JV from 50 percent to 75 percent. Due to lack of progress in the previously announced plan for Stellantis to take a majority share in the GAC-Stellantis JV, Stellantis intends to cooperate with GAC Group in an orderly termination of the joint venture. Stellantis will focus on distributing imported vehicles for the Jeep brand in China through an asset-light approach. We also locally manufacture vehicles under the Dongfeng Peugeot and Dongfeng Citroën brands in China through the 50 percent owned DPCA JV, based in Wuhan. DPCS markets the vehicles produced by DPCA in China. Until June 2020, vehicles under the DS brand were manufactured and marketed in China through CAPSA, a 50 percent joint venture between PSA and the Changan group. After the sale of the 50 percent stake by PSA in June 2020, Shenzhen Baoneng Motor Co. Ltd continues to manufacture DS vehicles for the Company.
The results of these joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method, with recognition of our share of the net result of the joint venture in the line item “Share of the profit of equity method investees” within the Consolidated Income Statement. We fully impaired the equity method investment in GAC-Stellantis JV at June 30, 2022. Refer to Note 2 - Scope of consolidation in the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report for additional information.
We also produce the Jeep Compass and Jeep Meridian in India through our joint operation with FIAPL and we recognize our related interest in the joint operation on a line by line basis.
Shipments distributed by our consolidated subsidiaries, which include vehicles produced by FIAPL, are reported in both consolidated and combined shipments. Shipments of the GAC-Stellantis JV and DPCA JV are not included in consolidated shipments and are only in combined shipments.
Shipments
The increase in China and India & Asia Pacific consolidated shipments on an IFRS basis in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the IFRS and Pro Forma basis for the corresponding period in 2021 was primarily due to the increased demand for Jeep Compass.
Net revenues
The increase in China and India & Asia Pacific Net revenues on an IFRS basis in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the IFRS and Pro Forma basis for the corresponding period in 2021 was primarily due to favorable foreign exchange translation effects, positive net pricing and vehicle line mix.
Adjusted operating income
The increase in China and India & Asia Pacific Adjusted operating income in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 Pro Forma was mainly driven by favorable net pricing and vehicle mix, primarily related to Ram 1500 and Jeep brand vehicles, partially offset by unfavorable market mix.

Shipments
The decrease in Maserati shipments on an IFRS basis in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the IFRS and Pro Forma basis for the corresponding period in 2021 was primarily due to reduced Ghibli volumes particularly in China, partially offset by demand for the all-new MC20.
Net revenues
The increase in Maserati Net revenues on an IFRS basis in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the IFRS and Pro Forma basis for the corresponding period in 2021 was primarily due to positive model mix driven by all-new MC20 Model Year 2022 pricing actions and favorable foreign exchange both in U.S. Dollar and Chinese Renmimbi more than offsetting lower volumes, mainly in China.
Adjusted operating income
The increase in Maserati Adjusted operating income in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 Pro Forma was mainly due to higher net pricing, favorable vehicle mix, driven by all-new MC20, and positive foreign exchange transaction effects, partially offset by increased depreciation and amortization for new vehicle launches.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
(1) Financial securities are comprised of short term or marketable securities which represent temporary investments but do not satisfy all the requirements to be classified as cash equivalents as they may be subject to risk of change in value (even if they are short-term in nature or marketable)
(2) The majority of our liquidity is available to our treasury operations in Europe and U.S.; however, liquidity is also available to certain subsidiaries which operate in other countries. Cash held in such countries may be subject to restrictions on transfer depending on the foreign jurisdictions in which these subsidiaries operate. Based on our review of such transfer restrictions in the countries in which we operate and maintain material cash balances, (and in particular in Argentina, in which we have €856 million cash at the end of June 2022) we do not believe such transfer restrictions had an adverse impact on the Company’s ability to meet its liquidity requirements at the dates presented above
The Available liquidity of the Industrial Activities at June 30, 2022, decreased €3.0 billion from December 31, 2021 primarily due to the repayment of €6.3 billion Intesa San Paolo credit facility and the payment of €3.3 billion dividends, partially offset by the positive free cash flow of the period, a €1.0 billion note issuance in April and favorable currency translation effect.
Our available liquidity is subject to intra-month and seasonal fluctuations resulting from business and collection-payment cycles as well as to changes in foreign exchange conversion rates. Moreover, we tend to operate with negative working capital as we generally receive payment for vehicles within a few days of shipment, whereas there is a lag between the time when parts and materials are received from suppliers and when we pay for such parts and materials; therefore, in periods in which our vehicle shipments decline materially we will suffer a significant negative impact on cash flow and liquidity as we continue to pay suppliers for components purchased in a high volume environment during a period in which we receive lower proceeds from vehicle shipments. Plant shutdowns, whether associated with model year changeovers, or other factors such as temporary supplier interruptions or government-imposed restrictions, such as we have experienced in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, can have a significant negative impact on our revenues and working capital as we continue to pay suppliers while we do not receive proceeds from vehicle sales. Refer to the section — Cash Flows below for additional information regarding the change in cash and cash equivalents.
Our liquidity is principally denominated in Euro and U.S. Dollar, with the remainder being distributed in various countries and denominated in the relevant local currencies. Out of the total cash, cash equivalents and financial securities available at June 30, 2022, €20.3 billion, or 42 percent (€29.7 billion, or 58 percent at December 31, 2021), were denominated in Euro and €21.4 billion, or 44 percent (€15.5 billion, or 30 percent at December 31, 2021), were denominated in U.S. Dollar.
At June 30, 2022, undrawn committed credit lines of €12.9 billion include the syndicated revolving credit facility (“RCF”) of €12.0 billion, signed in 2021 with a group of relationship banks. The RCF is available for use in general corporate purposes, is structured in two tranches: €6.0 billion, with a 3 year tenor, and €6.0 billion, with a 5 year tenor, each tranche benefiting from two further extension options, each of 1-year. In June 2022, the first 1-year extension option has been exercised. Current maturities are July 6, 2025 and July 6, 2027 respectively for the two tranches.
Euro Medium Term Note Programme Notes
On April 1, 2022, the Company issued €1.0 billion principal amount of 2.750 percent notes due April 1, 2032, under the €30 billion Euro Medium Term Note Programme. All the notes were rated Baa3 by Moody’s Investors Service, BBB by Standard & Poor’s and BBB- by Fitch.
Refer to Note 14 - Debt within the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report for additional information.
Intesa Sanpaolo Credit Facility
On January 28, 2022, Stellantis announced the early repayment of the €6.3 billion credit facility entered in June 2020 with Intesa Sanpaolo and maturity in March 2023. The facility was structured to support the restart and transformation of Italy’s automotive sector after the COVID-19 outbreak by providing liquidity to the Company’s business in Italy and to its Italian suppliers.
Ratings
On March 11, 2022, Moody’s affirmed Stellantis rating at “Baa3” and changed outlook to Positive.
On March 18, 2022, S&P upgraded the long-term Issuer rating and Senior Unsecured Debt rating of Stellantis N.V. from “BBB -” to “BBB”, with the outlook on all ratings stable. The short-term credit rating was upgraded from “A-3” to “A-2”.

Important events during the six months ended June 30, 2022
In January 2022, we announced a plan to increase our shareholding with GAC-Stellantis JV from 50 percent to 75 percent.

Risks and Uncertainties
Except as noted below, the Company believes that the risks and uncertainties identified for the six months ended June 30, 2022 are in line with the main risks and uncertainties to which the Company is exposed and that were identified and discussed in the section Risk Management-Risk Factors in the Company's Annual Report and Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC and AFM on February 25, 2022, (the “Annual Report”). Those risks and uncertainties should be read in conjunction with this Semi-Annual Report.

“For example, although we have not experienced a direct material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine military conflict, we have been significantly impacted by the global economic conditions that have followed, including substantially increased energy and commodity prices and other costs. The long term impacts of the conflict remain uncertain.”

STELLANTIS N.V. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE SEMI-ANNUAL CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of preparation
On January 16, 2021, Peugeot S.A. (“PSA”) merged with and into Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. (“FCA N.V.”), with FCA N.V. as the surviving company in the merger (the “merger”). On January 17, 2021, the members of the board of directors were appointed, the Stellantis articles of association became effective and the combined company was renamed Stellantis N.V. On this date, the Stellantis management and board of directors collectively obtained the power and ability to control the assets, liabilities and operations of both FCA and PSA. As such, under IFRS 3, Business Combinations, January 17, 2021 is the acquisition date for the business combination. Stellantis N.V. was established as a public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap), organized in the Netherlands, as the parent of Stellantis with its principal executive offices located at Taurusavenue 1, 2132 LS, Hoofddorp, the Netherlands.
In 2021, the merger was accounted for by Stellantis using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with IFRS 3, which requires the identification of the acquirer and the acquiree for accounting purposes. Based on the assessment of the indicators under IFRS 3 and consideration of all pertinent facts and circumstances, management determined that PSA was the acquirer for accounting purposes and as such, the merger has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition. As a result, the acquisition method of accounting has been applied and the assets and liabilities of FCA have been recorded at their respective fair values, with limited exceptions as permitted by IFRS 3. The results of FCA are included from the acquisition date.
Authorization of Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards
The accompanying Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements together with the notes thereto (the “Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”) were authorized for issuance on July 29, 2022 and have been prepared in accordance with both International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) as well as IFRS as adopted by the European Union(1). The designation “IFRS” also includes International Accounting Standards (“IAS”), as well as all interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).
The Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, do not include all of the information and notes required for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 furnished to the SEC on February 25, 2022 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2021”), which are available on the Company’s corporate website at www.stellantis.com. The accounting policies are consistent with those used at December 31, 2021, except as described in the section — New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2022 below.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
(1) There is no effect on these Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements resulting from differences between IFRS as issued by the IASB and IFRS as adopted by the European Union
Basis of preparation
The Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared under the historical cost method, modified for the measurement of certain financial instruments as required, as well as on a going concern basis. In this respect, the Company’s assessment is that no material uncertainties (as defined in IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements) exist about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The preparation of the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities. If in the future such estimates and assumptions, which are based on management’s best judgment at the date of the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, deviate from the actual circumstances, the original estimates and assumptions will be modified as appropriate in the period in which the circumstances change. The Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments considered necessary by management to fairly state the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows. For a description of the significant estimates, judgments and assumptions of the Company, refer to Note 2 - Basis of preparation - Use of estimates in the Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2021.
New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2022
The following amendments and interpretations, which were effective from January 1, 2022, were adopted by the Company. The adoption of these amendments did not have a material impact on the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
•In May 2020, the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2018-2020, which includes amendments to the following standards: updating a reference in IFRS 3 - Business Combinations to the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting; in IAS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment, prohibiting the deduction of amounts received from selling items produced whilst preparing the asset for its intended use from the cost of property, plant and equipment; in IAS 37 - Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, specifying what costs are to be included when assessing whether a contract will be loss-making; and minor amendments to IFRS 1 - First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments, IAS 41 - Agriculture and the Illustrative Examples accompanying IFRS 16 - Leases.
New standards and amendments not yet effective
•In January 2020, the IASB issued Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1), which affects the requirements in IAS 1 for the presentation of liabilities, including clarifying one of the criteria for classifying a liability as non-current. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022, with earlier adoption permitted. In July 2020, the IASB deferred the effective date of this amendment to January 1, 2023. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption.
•In June 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 17 - Insurance Contracts aimed at helping companies implement the standard and making it easier for them to explain their financial performance. The fundamental principles introduced when the Board first issued IFRS 17 in May 2017 remain unaffected. The amendments, which respond to feedback from stakeholders, are designed to: reduce costs by simplifying some requirements in the Standard; make financial performance easier to explain; and ease transition by deferring the effective date of the Standard to 2023 and by providing additional relief to reduce the effort required when applying IFRS 17 for the first time. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption.
•In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Change in Accounting Estimates and Errors. The amendments to IAS 1 require companies to disclose their material accounting policies rather than their significant accounting policies, including providing guidance on how to apply the concept of materiality to accounting policy disclosures. The amendments to IAS 8 clarify how companies should distinguish change in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption.
•In May 2021, the IASB issued targeted amendments to IAS 12, the IFRS Standard on income taxes, to specify how companies should account for deferred tax on transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations. IAS 12 Income Taxes specifies how a company accounts for income tax, including deferred tax, which represents tax payable or recoverable in the future. In specified circumstances, companies are exempt from recognizing deferred tax when they recognize assets or liabilities for the first time. Previously, there had been some uncertainty about whether the exemption applied to transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations—transactions for which companies recognize both an asset and a liability. The amendments clarify that the exemption does not apply and that companies are required to recognize deferred tax on such transactions. The aim of the amendments is to reduce diversity in the reporting of deferred tax on leases and decommissioning obligations. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with early application permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption.
•In December 2021, the IASB issued a narrow-scope amendment to the transition requirements in IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts, providing insurers with an option aimed at improving the usefulness of information to investors on initial application of the new Standard. The amendment relates to insurers’ transition to the new Standard only - it does not affect any other requirements in IFRS 17.

2. Scope of consolidation
Russia & Ukraine Crisis
In response to the on-going Russia-Ukraine conflict, various governments around the world have applied economic, trade and financial sanctions against Russia.
In Russia, we have a joint venture assembly plant, accounted for as a joint operation, as well as, national sales companies. In March 2022, the import and export of vehicles to and from Russia were suspended by Stellantis. In April 2022, operations at the joint venture assembly plant were suspended. In Ukraine, we have a national sales company. Our activities in Russia and Ukraine are not material to our net assets, financial position or results of operations.
Acquisition
In order to strengthen our used car business which is one of our long term strategic priorities, on January 31, 2022, Stellantis announced it had acquired control through the purchase of 60 percent of Stimcar Holding, a company dedicated to the refurbishment of used vehicles. The total consideration was €58 million, of which €43 million was paid in cash on closing, and €15 million recognized as contingent consideration. As a result of the preliminary purchase accounting, the Company has recognized preliminary goodwill of €53 million, which is allocated to the Enlarged Europe reporting segment. The amounts reported above are provisional and could be subject to further adjustment during the one-year measurement period, in accordance with IFRS 3.
Disposal
On April 8, 2022, Stellantis announced the sale of its 25 percent stake in GEFCO S.A. (“GEFCO”), which was previously reported as an equity method investment.
Held for sale
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the equity method investment of €149 million in Dongfeng Peugeot Citroën Auto Finance Company Ltd (DPCA Finco) met the criteria to be classified as held for sale under IFRS 5, "Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations". DPCA Finco is a financial services company in China proving financing solutions for Peugeot and Citroën branded vehicles in China. In April 2022, the Company announced the sale of DPCA Finco to Dongfeng Motor Group Ltd with closing of the transaction expected during the six months ended December 31, 2022, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
GAC-Stellantis JV
In January 2022, Stellantis announced a plan to increase its shareholding with GAC-Stellantis JV from 50 percent to 75 percent. Due to lack of progress in the previously announced plan for Stellantis to take a majority share in GAC-Stellantis JV, Stellantis intends to cooperate with GAC Group in an orderly termination of the joint venture. Stellantis will focus on distributing imported vehicles for the Jeep brand in China through an asset-light approach. As a result, Stellantis has fully impaired the equity method investment in GAC-Stellantis JV of €126 million. In addition, impairments were recognized for the loans granted to GAC-Stellantis JV of €106 million, €48 million related to trade receivables, as well as, €16 million primarily related to capitalized development expenditures. These amounts are recognized in Results from equity method investments.

Net financial expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022, include €107 million losses (€29 million losses for the six months ended June 30, 2021) on the net monetary position of entities whose functional currency is the currency of hyperinflationary economies primarily for the Turkish Lira, beginning from January 1, 2022.
5. Tax expense
Tax expense was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | Six months ended June 30, |
| | | | | 2022 | | 2021 |
| | | | (€ million) |
Current tax expense | | | | | € | 1,980 | | | € | 1,403 | |
Deferred tax expense | | | | | 6 | | | 158 | |
Tax (benefit)/expense relating to prior periods | | | | | (1) | | | 168 | |
Total Tax expense | | | | | € | 1,985 | | | € | 1,729 | |
The effective tax rate was 20.1 percent and 24.3 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The decrease in the effective tax rate during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the corresponding period in 2021, is primarily related to the deferred tax asset adjustments in the UK and Germany as a result of the merger in 2021 along with increased tax benefits in the U.S. and Argentina in the six months ended June 30, 2022. This is partially offset by additional U.S. earnings taxed at approximately 24 percent blended U.S. corporate and state statutory tax rate.
In February 2022, the French Tax Authorities granted a ruling to Stellantis confirming that €9 billion of former French tax losses existing as of December 31, 2020 (of which approximately €0.9 billion was utilized during 2021 to offset current taxes) were transferred to the Stellantis NV French permanent establishment as a result of the merger. At June 30, 2022, tax loss carry forwards, related to the French tax losses, of €593 million tax effected were unrecognized (€581 million tax effected as at December 31, 2021).
6. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives at June 30, 2022 and at December 31, 2021 are summarized below:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| At June 30, 2022 | | | | At December 31, 2021 |
| (€ million) |
Goodwill | € | 15,539 | | | | | € | 14,375 | |
Other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives | 16,576 | | | | | 15,546 | |
Total Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives | € | 32,115 | | | | | € | 29,921 | |
At June 30, 2022, goodwill amounted to €15,539 million, with gross value of €15,623 million and accumulated impairment losses of €84 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, an impairment of €45 million was recognized as a result of termination of operations of a subsidiary in South America.
At December 31, 2021, goodwill amounted to €14,375 million, with gross value of €14,415 million and accumulated impairment losses of €40 million.
The increase during the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily related to currency translation impacts due to the revaluation of the U.S. Dollar against the Euro.
7. Other assets and prepaid expenses
Other assets and prepaid expenses consisted of the following:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

The increase in Other receivables at June 30, 2022, is primarily due to an increase in indirect taxes in Brazil, mainly driven by exchange rates, and in Mexico.
Transfer of financial assets
At June 30, 2022, the Company had receivables due after that date which had been transferred without recourse and which were derecognized in accordance with IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, amounting to €12,935 million (€12,509 million at December 31, 2021), of which 54 percent at June 30, 2022 (57 percent at December 31, 2021), mainly due from the sales network, were transferred to financing companies in partnership with Santander, BNP Paribas and Crédit Agricole.
Other receivables
During 2017, the Brazilian Supreme Court ruled that the state value added tax should be excluded from the basis for calculating a federal tax on revenue. The Brazilian government appealed this decision, and in May 2021, the Brazilian Supreme Court rendered a final and definitive decision confirming the 2017 decision. Certain of Stellantis’ companies in Brazil had previously filed individual lawsuits on this matter.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, as a result of the Supreme Court ruling, the previously recognized provision of €149 million related to PSA was no longer considered probable and was reversed.
In addition, as of December 31, 2021 other receivables of €113 million of which €87 million were recognized within Net revenues (€73 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021) and €26 million within Net financial results for previously paid amounts that have not yet been recovered as these amounts are now virtually certain.
The Company also expects to recognize approximately additional €47 million of previously paid taxes pending full resolution of these related cases.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, deposits of €144 million were released and received. The remaining amount of approximately €68 million is recorded within Other receivables.

In 2021, Credit Suisse Asset Management suspended redemptions and subscriptions of certain supply chain finance funds, which the Company holds a position in, and approved the commencement of the liquidation process of the funds. The Company received cash proceeds of approximately 67 percent of its investment during 2021, with no further proceeds received during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The remaining position of €137 million as of June 30, 2022 is expected to be fully collectible, as it is a fully insured fund.

11. Share-based compensation
2021-2023 Long Term Incentive Plan
At the General Meeting of Shareholders in April 2021, shareholders approved the Company’s framework equity incentive plan under which the 2021-2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2021-2023 LTIP”) operates.
The PSU awards, which represent the right to receive Stellantis common shares, have certain performance targets which are settled independently of each other. Of the total PSU awards, 40 percent are expected to vest based on certain market performance conditions (“PSU TSR awards”) covering an approximate three year performance period from January 18, 2021 (the date of the completion of the merger) to December 31, 2023, with a payout scale ranging from 0 percent to 200 percent. Of the total PSU awards, 40 percent are expected to vest based on the Company’s targets for the achievement of synergies less implementation costs (“PSU Synergies”), following the completion of the merger, covering an approximate three year period from January 18, 2021 to December 31, 2023, with a payout scale ranging from 0 percent to 100 percent. 10 percent of the PSU awards are expected to vest based on the achievement of certain regulatory emissions compliance targets (“PSU Compliance”) in the years ending December 31, 2021, 2022 and 2023. The remaining 10 percent of the PSU awards are expected to vest based on the achievement of certain vehicle nameplate electrification targets (“PSU Electrification”), covering an approximate three-year period from January 18, 2021 to December 31, 2023, with a payout scale ranging from 0 percent to 100 percent. Accordingly, the total number of shares that are expected to be issued could vary from the original award of approximately 7.3 million units during 2021. If the performance goals for the respective periods are met, the PSU awards are expected to vest in one tranche in the second quarter of 2024.
The RSU awards (“2021 RSU awards”), which represents the right to receive Stellantis common shares, are expected to vest in the second and fourth quarters of 2024.
The fair values of the PSU Synergies, PSU Compliance, PSU Electrification and the RSU awards were measured using the Stellantis share price on the grant date, adjusted for expected dividends at a constant yield as these PSU and RSU awards do not have the right to receive ordinary dividends prior to vesting. The fair value of the PSU TSR awards were calculated using a Monte Carlo Simulation.
Other Restricted Share Unit Grants
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company awarded approximately 0.1 million RSU awards to certain key employees of the Company, which represents the right to receive Stellantis common shares. These are expected to vest in between 2023 to 2025, in accordance with the award agreements. The fair values of these RSU awards were measured using the Stellantis share price on the grant date, adjusted for expected dividends at a constant yield as these awards do not have the right to receive ordinary dividends prior to vesting.
Share-based payment plans issued by the former FCA
As a result of the merger, each outstanding legacy FCA PSU award, and each outstanding legacy FCA RSU award has been replaced by Stellantis RSU awards (“replacement Stellantis RSU awards”), which will continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions, including service-based vesting terms. Both the legacy FCA PSU Adjusted EBIT and legacy FCA PSU TSR awards were deemed to be satisfied at target upon conversion to Stellantis RSU awards. On completion of the merger 24.3 million replacement Stellantis RSU awards were granted.
In line with the guidance in IFRS 2 - Share-based payment and IFRS 3 - Business combinations, the fair value of the Stellantis RSU awards was determined based on the FCA share price as of January 15, 2021, with a portion of this fair value included in the consideration transferred, which has been determined by multiplying the fair value of the original FCA awards as of January 15, 2021 by the portion of the requisite service period that elapsed prior to the merger divided by the total service period. The remaining portion of the fair value is expected to be recognized within the Stellantis income statement over the remaining vesting term.
The replacement Stellantis RSU awards, which represents the right to receive Stellantis common shares are expected to vest in 2023 in accordance with the award agreements.
Share-based payment plans issued by former PSA
As a result of the merger, each outstanding legacy PSA PSU award has been replaced by Stellantis RSU awards (“replacement Stellantis RSU awards”), which will continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions, including service-based vesting terms. The legacy PSA PSU awards were deemed to be either totally or partially satisfied upon conversion into Stellantis RSU awards. Refer below for further details regarding the conversion of the awards to Stellantis RSU awards.
2018 performance share plan
In 2018, a performance share plan was established. The allocation of performance shares was subject to a condition of service within PSA at the end of the vesting period. In light of the objectives, half of the shares vested in April 2021 with the remaining portion vested in April 2022. On completion of the merger 4.1 million replacement Stellantis RSU awards were granted, in respect of this plan, with an additional 0.2 million granted for the equal distribution of Faurecia.
2019 performance share plan
In 2019, a performance share plan was established. The allocation of performance shares was subject to a condition of service within PSA at the end of the vesting period. In light of the objectives, the shares are vested in two equal parts with one part vested in May 2022 and the remaining part expected to be vested in May 2023. On completion of the merger 4.3 million replacement Stellantis RSU awards were granted, in respect of this plan, with an additional 0.3 million granted for the equal distribution of Faurecia.
2020 performance share plan
In 2020, a performance share plan was established. The allocation of performance shares was subject to a condition of service within PSA at the end of the vesting period. The shares are expected vest in May 2023. On completion of the merger 4.6 million replacement Stellantis RSU awards were granted, in respect of this plan, with an additional 0.3 million granted for the equal for distribution of Faurecia.
Share-based payment expense
Including previously granted awards, total expense of approximately €84 million was recorded for the PSU and RSU awards for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Total expense of approximately €117 million was recorded for the PSU and RSU awards for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
The total number of PSU and RSU awards outstanding at June 30, 2022 was approximately 8 million and approximately 21 million respectively.

Euro Medium Term Note Programme Notes
Certain notes issued by Stellantis are governed by the terms and conditions of the Medium Term Note (“MTN”) Programme (previously known as the Global Medium Term Note Programme, or “GMTN” Programme). A maximum of €30 billion is allowed to be issued under this program. Notes under the MTN Programme were also issued, or otherwise guaranteed, by FCA N.V., the predecessor of Stellantis N.V. From time to time, Stellantis N.V. may buy back notes in the market that had been issued under this program. Such buybacks, if made, depend upon market conditions, the Company's financial situation and other factors which could affect such decisions.
Notes issued under the MTN Programme impose covenants on the issuer and, in certain cases, on Stellantis N.V. as guarantor, which include: (i) negative pledge clauses which require that in the case that any security interest upon assets of the issuer and/or Stellantis N.V. is granted in connection with other notes or debt securities having the same ranking, such a security should be equally and ratably extended to the outstanding notes; (ii) pari passu clauses, under which the notes rank and will rank pari passu with all other present and future unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the issuer and/or Stellantis N.V.; (iii) periodic disclosure obligations; (iv) cross-default clauses which require immediate repayment of the notes under certain events of default on other financial instruments issued by Stellantis' main entities; and (v) other clauses that are generally applicable to securities of a similar type. A breach of these covenants may require the early repayment of the notes.
On April 1, 2022, the Company issued €1.0 billion principal amount of 2.750 percent notes due April 1, 2032, under the €30 billion Euro Medium Term Note Programme. All the notes were rated Baa3 by Moody’s Investors Service, BBB by Standard & Poor’s and BBB- by Fitch.
Undrawn committed credit lines
At June 30, 2022, undrawn committed credit lines of €12.9 billion include the syndicated revolving credit facility (“RCF”) of €12.0 billion, signed in 2021 with a group of relationship banks. The RCF is available for use in general corporate purposes, is structured in two tranches: €6.0 billion, with a 3 year tenor, and €6.0 billion, with a 5 year tenor, each tranche benefiting from two further extension options, each of 1-year. In June 2022, the first 1-year extension option has been exercised. Current maturities are July 6, 2025 and July 6, 2027 respectively for the two tranches.
Intesa Sanpaolo Credit Facility
On January 28, 2022, Stellantis announced the early repayment of the €6.3 billion credit facility entered in June 2020 with Intesa Sanpaolo and maturity in March 2023.

In order to manage the Company’s foreign currency risk related to its investments, the Company enters into hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, in particular foreign currency swaps and forward contracts. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, losses of €13 million related to the hedges of a net investment in foreign operation were recognized in Other comprehensive loss within currency translation differences. There was no ineffectiveness for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
For assets and liabilities recognized in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization at the end of each reporting period.
The fair value of derivative financial assets and liabilities is measured by taking into consideration market parameters at the balance sheet date and using valuation techniques widely accepted in the financial business environment, as described below:
•the fair value of forward contracts, swaps and options hedging currency risk is determined by using valuation techniques common in the financial markets and taking market parameters at the balance sheet date (in particular, exchange rates, interest rates and volatility rates);
•the fair value of interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements is determined by taking the prevailing interest rates at the balance sheet date and using the discounted expected cash flow method;
•the fair value of combined interest rate and currency swaps is determined using the exchange and interest rates prevailing at the balance sheet date and the discounted expected cash flow method; and
•the fair value of swaps and options hedging commodity price risk is determined by using valuation techniques common in the financial markets and taking market parameters at the balance sheet date (in particular, underlying prices, interest rates and volatility rates).
The fair value of money market securities is also based on available market quotations. Where appropriate, the fair value of cash equivalents is determined with discounted expected cash flow techniques using observable market yields (categorized as Level 2).
The fair value of Receivables from financing activities, which are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, has been estimated using discounted cash flow models. The most significant inputs used in this measurement are market discount rates that reflect conditions applied in various reference markets on receivables with similar characteristics, adjusted in order to take into account the credit risk of the counterparties.
The fair value of Other receivables is classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and has been estimated using discounted cash flow models. The most significant inputs used in this measurement are market discount rates.
For assets and liabilities recognized in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization at the end of each reporting period.
The following is a reconciliation of the changes in items measured at fair value and classified within Level 3:

Assets and liabilities not measured at fair value on recurring basis
The carrying value of debt securities measured at amortized cost, financial receivables, current receivables and payables is a reasonable approximation of fair value as the present value of future cash flows does not differ significantly from the carrying amount.
The carrying value of Cash at banks and Other cash equivalents usually approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
The following table summarizes the carrying amount and fair value for financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Litigation
Takata airbag inflators
Putative class action lawsuits were filed in March 2018 against FCA US LLC (“FCA US”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Stellantis, in the U.S. District Courts for the Southern District of Florida and the Eastern District of Michigan, asserting claims under federal and state laws alleging economic loss due to Takata airbag inflators installed in certain of our vehicles. We are vigorously defending against this action and at this stage of the proceedings, we are unable to reliably evaluate the likelihood that a loss will be incurred or estimate a range of possible loss.
Emissions Matters
On January 10, 2019, FCA US announced it had reached final settlements on civil environmental and consumer claims with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), the Civil Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (“DoJ”), the California Air Resources Board (“CARB”), the State of California, 49 other States and U.S. Customs and Border Protection, for which we accrued €748 million during the year ended December 31, 2018. Approximately €350 million of the amount accrued by FCA US, which was prior to the merger, was related to civil penalties to resolve differences over diesel emissions requirements. A portion of the amount accrued, prior to the merger, was attributable to settlement of a putative class action on behalf of consumers in connection with which FCA US agreed to pay an average of $2,800 per vehicle to eligible customers affected by the recall. That settlement received final court approval on May 3, 2019. On April 9, 2021, FCA US reached an agreement with substantially all of the approximately 3,200 consumers that exercised their right to opt out of the class action settlement to settle their claims for an amount that is not material to the Company. As of June 30, 2022, our best estimate of a probable loss is reflected in the amount previously accrued prior to the merger.
In September 2019, the DoJ filed criminal charges against an employee of FCA US for, among other things, fraud, conspiracy, false statements and violations of the Clean Air Act primarily in connection with efforts to obtain regulatory approval of the vehicles that were the subject of the civil settlements described above. In April 2021, two additional employees of a Stellantis subsidiary were indicted by the DoJ on similar charges. The three employees were placed on administrative leave following their indictments. On June 3, 2022, FCA US announced that it had agreed to a settlement to resolve the DoJ, Criminal Division’s investigation as it relates to FCA US. The settlement, which is subject to court approval, includes a guilty plea, a fine of approximately $96 million, and the forfeiture of approximately $204 million in gains. Prior to the merger, we accrued approximately €200 million during the three months ended September 30, 2020 as our best estimate of probable loss with regard to matters under discussion. In light of subsequent progress in our discussions with the DoJ, Criminal Division, we increased our accrual for this matter to approximately €266 million as of December 31, 2021, which is sufficient to cover the forfeiture and penalty imposed by the plea agreement. We remain subject to a number of related private lawsuits (the “Non Opt-Out Litigation”).
We have also received inquiries from other regulatory authorities in a number of jurisdictions as they examine the on-road tailpipe emissions of several automakers’ vehicles and, when jurisdictionally appropriate, we continue to cooperate with these governmental agencies and authorities.
In Europe, we have continued to work with the Italian Ministry of Transport (“MIT”) and the Dutch Vehicle Regulator (“RDW”), the authorities that certified FCA diesel vehicles for sale in the European Union, and the UK Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency in connection with their review of several diesel models.
We also responded to inquiries from the German authority, the Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (“KBA”), regarding emissions test results for FCA diesel vehicles, and discussed the KBA reported test results, our emission control calibrations and the features of the vehicles in question. After these initial discussions, the MIT, which has sole authority for regulatory compliance of the vehicles it has certified, asserted its exclusive jurisdiction over the matters raised by the KBA, tested the vehicles, determined that the vehicles complied with applicable European regulations and informed the KBA of its determination. Thereafter, mediations were held under European Commission (“EC”) rules, between the MIT and the German Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure, which oversees the KBA, in an effort to resolve their differences. The mediation concluded and no action was taken with respect to FCA. In May 2017, the EC announced its intention to open an infringement procedure against Italy regarding Italy's alleged failure to respond to EC's concerns regarding certain FCA emission control calibrations. The MIT responded to the EC's allegations by confirming that the vehicles' approval process was properly performed. On December 2, 2021, the EC notified Italy of its position that Italy did not comply with its obligation to enforce EU emission type approval rules.
In December 2019, the MIT notified FCA of communications with the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management (“I&W”) regarding certain irregularities allegedly found by the RDW and the Dutch Center of Research TNO in the emission levels of certain Jeep Grand Cherokee Euro 5 models and a vehicle model of another OEM containing a Euro 6 diesel engine supplied by FCA. In January 2020, the Dutch Parliament published a letter from the I&W summarizing the conclusions of the RDW regarding those vehicles and engines and indicating an intention to order a recall and report their findings to the Public Prosecutor, the EC and other Member States. FCA engaged with the RDW to present our positions and cooperate to reach an appropriate resolution of this matter. FCA proposed certain updates to the relevant vehicles that have been tested and approved by the RDW and are now being implemented. Nevertheless, this matter is still pending.
In addition, as part of the judicial investigation of several automakers in France, commencing in 2016 and 2017, Automobiles Peugeot and Automobiles Citroën were placed under examination by the Judicial Court of Paris in June 2021 on allegations of consumer fraud in connection with the sale of Euro 5 diesel vehicles in France between 2009 and 2015. In July 2021, FCA Italy was placed under examination by the same court for possible consumer fraud in connection with the sale of Euro 6 diesel vehicles in France between 2014 and 2017. FCA Italy was also designated as a material witness in connection with allegations of obstruction of the actions of an economy ministry antifraud inspector in 2016 and 2017. As is typical in a French criminal inquiry, each of the companies were required to pay bail for the potential payment of damages and fines and to ensure representation in court, and to provide a guarantee for the potential compensation of losses. None of these amounts were, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Company.
In July 2020, unannounced inspections took place at several of FCA’s sites in Germany, Italy and the UK at the initiative of the Public Prosecutors of Frankfurt am Main and of Turin, as part of their investigations of potential violations of diesel emissions regulations and consumer protection laws. In April 2022, former FCA companies received an order to produce documents to the Public Prosecutors. The Public Prosecutor of Frankfurt has also informed us that it is conducting a criminal investigation regarding the emissions of certain PSA diesel engines installed in approximately 1,000 PSA vehicles and 29,000 Mitsubishi vehicles sold in Germany. We continue to cooperate with these investigations.
We also face purported class actions and individual claims in several European countries. Several former FCA and PSA companies and our Dutch dealers have been served with a purported class action filed in the Netherlands by Dutch foundations seeking monetary damages and vehicle buybacks in connection with alleged emissions non-compliance of certain diesel vehicles. We have also been notified of a potential class action on behalf of Dutch consumers alleging emissions non-compliance of certain former FCA and Stellantis vehicles sold as recreational vehicles, as well as a purported securities class action in the Netherlands, alleging misrepresentations by FCA, now Stellantis. A purported class action alleging emissions non-compliance has been filed in Portugal (regarding former FCA vehicles) and we are aware of a similar claim in the UK regarding vehicles former FCA and PSA vehicles. We are also defending approximately 9,000 individual consumer claims alleging emissions non-compliance of certain former FCA and PSA vehicles in Germany and Austria.
In December 2018, the Korean Ministry of Environment (“MOE”) announced its determination that approximately 2,400 FCA vehicles imported into Korea during 2015, 2016 and 2017 were not emissions compliant and that the vehicles with a subsequent update of the emission control calibrations voluntarily performed by FCA, although compliant, would have required re-homologation of the vehicles concerned. In May 2019, the MOE revoked certification of the above-referenced vehicles and announced an administrative fine for an amount not material to the Company. Our appeal of the MOE’s decision was rejected and we are now pursuing jurisdictional appeals. In November 2021, the MOE issued notice of its intention to impose a recall order, revocation of certification and an administrative fine on the basis of the alleged non-compliance of approximately 2,400 other FCA vehicles. Our appeal of the administrative fine remains pending. Our subsidiary in Seoul, Korea is also cooperating with local criminal authorities in connection with their review of these matters and is appealing a decision of the Korean Fair Trade Commission imposing an administrative fine for a purported breach of the Act on Fair Labeling and Advertisement in connection with the vehicles imported into Korea between 2015 and 2017.
The results of the unresolved governmental inquiries and private litigation related to the emissions matters disclosed above cannot be predicted at this time and these inquiries and litigation may lead to further enforcement actions, penalties or damage awards, any of which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. It is also possible that these matters and their ultimate resolution may adversely affect our reputation with consumers, which may negatively impact demand for our vehicles and consequently could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. At this stage, we are unable to evaluate the likelihood that a loss will be incurred with regard to the unresolved inquiries and Non Opt-Out Litigation or estimate a range of possible loss.
National Training Center
On January 27, 2021, FCA US announced an agreement with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Michigan to resolve its investigation into past misconduct of certain former FCA US employees involving the UAW-Chrysler National Training Center (“NTC”). Pursuant to the agreement, which received court approval on July 19, 2021, FCA US agreed to plead guilty to a single count of conspiracy to violate the Labor Management Relations Act and the payment of a fine in an amount that is not material to the Company and which was accrued prior to the merger. FCA US also agreed to implement an independent compliance monitor for three years with respect to the dissolution of the NTC and internal controls as they relate to the trusts being implemented to replace the NTC.
Several putative class action lawsuits have been filed against FCA US in U.S. federal court alleging harm to UAW workers as a result of these acts. Those actions have been dismissed both at the trial court stage and on appeal. Three plaintiffs in these lawsuits also filed charges alleging unfair labor practices with the U.S. National Labor Relations Board (the “Board”). The Board issued a complaint regarding these allegations and sought a cease and desist order as well as the posting of a notification with respect to the alleged practices, but subsequently dismissed the charges.
On July 20, 2020, a group of employees in FCA’s Toledo, Ohio Jeep plant filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio against FCA US, the UAW and certain individuals claiming violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act and civil conspiracy. On October 20, 2020, FCA US filed a motion to dismiss. Plaintiffs filed their second amended complaint on June 25, 2021. Briefing on the motion dismiss has been stayed pending decisions on motions to dismiss in two related cases in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. At this stage, we are unable to reliably evaluate the likelihood that a loss will be incurred or estimate a range of possible loss.
On October 16, 2020 and February 28, 2021, lawsuits were filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, by groups of current and former employees making similar claims. The court granted our motion to dismiss one of the cases and that decision has been appealed by plaintiffs. Our motion to dismiss the other case remains pending. At this stage, we are unable to reliably evaluate the likelihood that a loss will be incurred or estimate a range of possible loss with regard to these lawsuits.
General Motors Litigation
On November 20, 2019, General Motors LLC and General Motors Company (collectively, “GM”) filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan against FCA US, FCA N.V., now Stellantis N.V., and certain individuals, claiming violations of the RICO Act, unfair competition and civil conspiracy in connection with allegations that FCA US made payments to UAW officials that corrupted the bargaining process with the UAW and as a result FCA US enjoyed unfair labor costs and operational advantages that caused harm to GM. GM also claimed that FCA US had made concessions to the UAW in collective bargaining that the UAW was then able to extract from GM through pattern bargaining which increased costs to GM and that this was done by FCA US in an effort to force a merger between GM and FCA N.V.. The court dismissed GM’s lawsuit with prejudice. GM appealed the dismissal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit and oral argument on that appeal was held on March 4, 2021 but no decision has been rendered.
Following dismissal of its Federal court case, GM filed an action against FCA US and FCA N.V., now Stellantis N.V., in Michigan state court, making substantially the same claims as it made in the federal litigation. FCA US and FCA N.V. filed a motion for summary disposition in the state court case and GM filed a motion to compel discovery. On October 15, 2021, the court granted Stellantis N.V. and FCA US’s motion for summary disposition. GM filed a motion for reconsideration and on December 6, 2021, the court granted GM’s motion. GM filed a second amended complaint on December 23, 2021. On February 4, 2022, the court denied our motion for a protective order and ordered that some discovery would be allowed before the court rules on the pending motion for summary disposition. On July 20, 2022, the court granted Stellantis N.V.’s motion for summary disposition, which GM is expected to move the court for reconsideration or appeal. At this stage, we are unable to reliably evaluate the likelihood that a loss will be incurred or estimate a range of possible loss.
Tigershark Engine – EPA Matter
In connection with internal testing, FCA US determined that approximately 935,000 vehicles equipped with the 2.4L Tigershark engine may have excess tailpipe emissions. FCA US discussed this issue and reviewed the proposed solution with the EPA and CARB. We intend to initiate a recall campaign to implement this solution, and as a result, prior to the merger, FCA US increased its warranty campaign provision by approximately €200 million.
Tigershark Engine – Litigation
In addition, putative class action lawsuits have been filed against FCA US and consolidated into a single action in U.S. District court in Michigan asserting claims under federal and state laws claiming manufacturing and design defects in certain vehicles equipped with the 2.4L Tigershark engine, which has been installed in approximately 1.6 million vehicles sold in the U.S. The claims allege excessive oil consumption and related excess emissions. In November 2021, we entered into an agreement in principle to settle the litigation, contingent on court approval, for an amount that is not material to the Company. The court granted preliminary approval in June 2022 and a hearing for final approval is set for December 2022.
Other matters
Corporate Average Fuel Economy (“CAFE”) standards
On August 31, 2020, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit vacated a final rule published by NHTSA in July 2019 that had reversed NHTSA’s 2016 increase to the base rate of the CAFE penalty from $5.50 to $14.00. The base rate applies to each tenth of a mile per gallon that a manufacturer’s fleet-wide average fuel efficiency is below the CAFE standard, and is multiplied by the number of vehicles in the manufacturer’s fleet to arrive at an aggregate penalty. On January 14, 2021, NHTSA published an interim final rule with immediate effect, the result of which was to apply the increased fine rate that resulted from the Second Circuit’s ruling to future model years. In particular, NHTSA’s interim rule imposed a CAFE penalty base rate of $5.50 through 2021 Model Year and increased the CAFE penalty base rate to $14.00 prospectively from the 2022 Model Year. FCA accrued estimated amounts for any probable CAFE penalty based on the $5.50 rate for Model Years 2021 and earlier. In addition, as a result of the acquisition, and in accordance with IFRS 3, we recognized an incremental contingent liability of €163 million for the potentially higher fine rate on vehicle shipments prior to the merger date.
On April 1, 2022, NHTSA published a final rule repealing the interim final rule issued in January 2021 and reverting to the December 2016 final rule which increased the CAFE civil penalty rate from $5.00 to $14.00, beginning with 2019 Model Year. NHTSA is expected to continue to make mandatory inflation adjustments to the CAFE civil penalty rate, as required by law for all civil monetary penalties. Applying the annual inflation adjustment procedures did not result in an increase in the $14.00 rate through 2021 Model Year, but did result in an increased fine rate to $15.00 for 2022 Model Year vehicles. An additional accrual of €655 million has been recognized resulting from an increase in the provision related to the Model Year 2019-2021 penalty rate adjustment. In addition, an accrual of €5 million has been recognized to reflect the Model Year 2022 inflation adjustment for vehicles sold in 2021, and penalties for Model Year 2022 vehicles sold in the current year have been accrued based on a penalty rate of $15.00.
Greenhouse Gas Standards
On March 9, 2022, the EPA reinstated California’s authority under the Clean Air Act to implement its own greenhouse gas emission standards for passenger vehicles and light duty trucks, which can be adopted by other states. The Company is identifying an appropriate compliance path moving forward under the California program. We are currently unable to reliably estimate the cost of compliance.
U.S. Import Duties
Historically, FCA paid a 2.5 percent duty on Ram ProMaster City vehicles imported into the U.S. as passenger vehicles rather than the 25 percent duty applicable to vehicles that are imported into the U.S. as cargo vans. The vast majority of these vehicles are converted into cargo vans after importation. Federal litigation against a competitor in a similar case resulted in the application of the 25 percent duty rate to the competitor’s vehicles. We believe there are facts that distinguish our case from that of the competitor. However, U.S Customs and Border Protection may seek to recover increased duties for our prior imports, plus interest, and may assert a claim for penalties. At this stage, we are unable to reliably evaluate the likelihood that a loss will be incurred or estimate a range of possible loss.
Other commitments, arrangements and contractual rights
On March 23, 2022, Stellantis announced that it will support Automotive Cells Company’s (“ACC”) growth plans as it intends to build a third production site transforming Stellantis’ existing Termoli (Italy) plant into a new electric vehicle battery facility and finalized the agreement to add Mercedes-Benz AG as a new, equal partner with TotalEnergies/Saft and Stellantis. The partners have also committed to increase ACC’s total industrial capacity to at least 120 gigawatt hours (GWh) by 2030 and to scale up development and production of next-generation high-performance battery cells and modules. At June 30, 2022, this agreement represents total commitments of €409 million for the periods 2024-2027.
On March 23, 2022, Stellantis and LG Energy Solution announced their plan to invest over $5 billion CAD (€3.7 billion) in a joint venture for Canada’s first large scale lithium-ion battery production plant, which will be built in Windsor, Canada. At June 30, 2022, this agreement represents total commitments of €1.3 billion ($1.4 billion) over the period 2022-2025. The agreements are subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.
On April 1, 2022, Stellantis announced the signing of binding agreements with BNP Paribas Personal Finance, Crédit Agricole Consumer Finance and Santander Consumer Finance aimed at better organizing its current financial services platform in Europe. The transaction is expected to be completed by the first half of 2023 subject to regulatory approvals including from relevant authorities and market regulators.
On May 24, 2022, Stellantis announced its plan to invest over $2.5 billion (€2.4 billion) together with Samsung SDI Co., LTD in a joint venture for a lithium-ion battery production plant in Kokomo, Indiana, U.S. At June 30, 2022, this agreement represents total commitments of €632 million ($657 million) over the period 2022-2025. The agreements are subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.

20. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was determined by dividing the Net profit attributable to the equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period.
The following table summarizes the amounts used to calculate the basic earnings per share:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | Six months ended June 30, |

Diluted earnings per share
In order to calculate the diluted earnings per share during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the weighted average number of shares outstanding was increased to take into consideration the theoretical effect of the potential common shares that would be issued for the outstanding and unvested share-based compensation awards at June 30, 2022 as determined using the treasury stock method. Additionally, the weighted average number of shares outstanding was increased to reflect the 39,727,324 GM warrants issued by PSA in 2017, that will become exercisable in July 2022.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, there were no instruments excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because of an anti-dilutive effect.
The following tables summarize the amounts used to calculate the diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

21. Segment reporting
Prior to the merger, PSA’s four reportable segments were the Automotive division, consisting of the historical Peugeot Citroën DS business segment and of the Opel Vauxhall business segment, the Automotive Equipment segment, corresponding to the Faurecia Group, and the Finance segment, corresponding to the Banque PSA Finance group, which provided exclusively retail financing to customers of the Peugeot, Citroën, DS, Opel and Vauxhall brands, as well as wholesale financing to the brands' dealer networks through joint ventures.
The Company’s activities are carried out through six reportable segments: five regional vehicle segments (North America, Enlarged Europe, Middle East & Africa, South America and China and India & Asia Pacific) and Maserati, our global luxury brand segment. These reportable segments reflect the operating segments of the Company that are regularly reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer, who is the “chief operating decision maker”, for making strategic decisions, allocating resources and assessing performance, and that exceed the quantitative threshold provided in IFRS 8 – Operating Segments (“IFRS 8”), or whose information is considered useful for the users of the financial statements.
The Company’s five regional vehicle reportable segments deal with the design, engineering, development, manufacturing, distribution and sale of passenger cars, light commercial vehicles and related parts and services in specific geographic areas: North America (U.S., Canada and Mexico), Enlarged Europe (primarily the countries of the European Union and United Kingdom), Middle East & Africa (primarily Turkey, Morocco, Egypt and Algeria), South America (including Central America and the Caribbean islands) and China and India & Asia Pacific (Asia and Pacific countries). The Company's global luxury brand reportable segment, Maserati, deals with the design, engineering, development, manufacturing, worldwide distribution and sale of luxury vehicles under the Maserati brand.
Transactions among the mass-market vehicle segments generally are presented on a “where-sold” basis, which reflect the profit/(loss) on the ultimate sale to third party customer within the segment. This presentation generally eliminates the effect of the legal entity transfer price within the segments. Revenues of the other segments, aside from the mass-market vehicle segments, are those directly generated by or attributable to the segment as the result of its usual business activities and includes revenues from transactions with third parties as well as those arising from transactions with segments, recognized at normal market prices.
Other activities includes the results of our industrial automation systems design and production business, our cast iron and aluminum components business, our financial services activities, as well as the activities and businesses that are not operating segments under IFRS 8. In addition, Unallocated items and eliminations includes consolidation adjustments and eliminations. Financial income and expenses, income taxes and share of the profit of equity method investees are not attributable to the performance of the segments as they do not fall under the scope of their operational responsibilities.
Adjusted operating income is the measure used by the chief operating decision maker to assess performance, allocate resources to the Company's operating segments and to view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and benchmark performance between periods and among the segments. Adjusted operating income/(loss) excludes from Net profit/(loss) from continuing operations adjustments comprising restructuring, impairments, asset write-offs, disposals of investments and unusual operating income/(expense) that are considered rare or discrete events and are infrequent in nature, as inclusion of such items is not considered to be indicative of the Company's ongoing operating performance, and also excludes Net financial expenses/(income), Tax expense/(benefit) and Share of the profit/(loss) of equity method investees.
Unusual operating income/(expense) are impacts from strategic decisions, as well as events considered rare or discrete and infrequent in nature, as inclusion of such items is not considered to be indicative of the Company's ongoing operating performance. Unusual operating income/(expense) includes, but may not be limited to:
•Impacts from strategic decisions to rationalize Stellantis’ core operations,
•Facility-related costs stemming from Stellantis’ plans to match production capacity and cost structure to market demand, and
•Convergence and integration costs directly related to significant acquisitions or mergers.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, Pro Forma Adjusted operating income includes the Adjusted operating income of FCA for the period January 1 - January 16, 2021. See below for a reconciliation of Net profit from continuing operations, which is the most directly comparable measure included in our Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Income Statement, to Adjusted operating income. Operating assets are not included in the data reviewed by the chief operating decision maker, and as a result and as permitted by IFRS 8, the related information is not provided.
The following tables summarize selected financial information by segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

22. Subsequent events
On July 15, 2022, Stellantis and Dongfeng Motor (Hong Kong) International Co., Limited, a subsidiary of Dongfeng Motor Group Company Limited (“Dongfeng”) have executed a heads of agreement (“HOA”) related to the 99.2 million common shares in Stellantis held by Dongfeng, representing 3.16 percent of Stellantis’ share capital. Under the HoA, Dongfeng may from time to time submit an offer to sell to Stellantis, all or a portion of the Stellantis common shares held by Dongfeng. Stellantis will have the right but not the obligation to accept such an offer.
On July 18, 2022, as a strategic step towards Stellantis Dare Forward 2030 goal of growing its profitable mobility service, Stellantis announced the completion of its 100 percent acquisition of Share Now, a car sharing company operating in 16 major European cities. Due to the constraints imposed on the sharing of certain financial information by the competition regulatory authorities, which was effective until the transaction closed, the Company has not yet performed the assessment of the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired nor determined the amount of goodwill arising from the transaction.
In January 2022, Stellantis announced a plan to increase its shareholding with GAC-Stellantis JV from 50 percent to 75 percent. Due to lack of progress in the previously announced plan for Stellantis to take a majority share in GAC - JV, Stellantis announced on July 18, 2022, its intention to cooperate with GAC Group in an orderly termination of the joint venture. Stellantis will focus on distributing imported vehicles for the Jeep brand in China through an asset-light approach. As a result, Stellantis has fully impaired the equity method investment in GAC-Stellantis JV of €126 million. In addition, impairments were recognized for the loans granted to GAC-Stellantis JV of €106 million, €48 million related to trade receivables, as well as, €16 million primarily related to capitalized development expenditures. These amounts are recognized in Results from equity method investments.
