called up share capital financial

"The following table sets out our called up share capital and the borrowings and indebtedness..."

treasury shares financial

"Treasury shares held (1,234,199,142 shares)"

Treasury shares are a company’s own stock that it has repurchased and keeps on its books instead of canceling or leaving in the hands of outside investors. Think of them like coupons a business puts back in a drawer: they don’t vote or receive dividends while held, but they can be reissued later for employee pay or fundraising. For investors this matters because buybacks change the number of shares that count toward earnings and ownership, can boost per‑share metrics, and use corporate cash that might otherwise go to growth or dividends.

derivative financial instruments financial

"Short-term derivative financial instruments* ... Long-term derivative financial instruments*"

Derivative financial instruments are contracts whose value is tied to the price of something else — for example a stock, bond, commodity or market index — much like an insurance policy or a bet tied to the outcome of an event. They matter to investors because they can be used to reduce risk, amplify returns or speculate on price moves, but they can also magnify losses and affect a company’s financial exposure and market volatility.

additional paid-in capital financial

"Additional paid-in capital"

Amount of money shareholders have paid to a company for shares that is above the stock’s nominal or par value; think of it as the extra premium paid when a group buys a ticket that has a low listed price. It matters to investors because it represents permanent capital on the balance sheet that can cushion losses, affect book value per share and indicate how much fresh cash equity holders have contributed beyond the minimum share value.

non-controlling interests financial

"Non-controlling interests"

An ownership stake in a subsidiary held by outside shareholders rather than the parent company, representing the portion of that subsidiary’s assets and profits the parent does not control. For investors, it shows what part of consolidated earnings and equity belongs to others — like a roommate who owns part of a house — which affects how much value and profit per share are truly attributable to the parent company’s shareholders.
