  1. Continuing operations, excluding temporary vitamin effect 2018, see table in 'Key business figures at a glance'.
  2. In presenting and discussing DSM's financial position, operating results and cash flows, DSM uses certain Alternative performance measures (APMs) not defined by IFRS. These APMs are used because they are an important measure of DSM's business development and DSM's management performance. A full reconciliation of IFRS performance measures to the APMs is given in the 'Alternative performance measures'.
