Such non-IFRS financial information, as calculated herein, may not be comparable to similarly named measures used by other companies and should not be considered comparable to IFRS financial measures. Non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, an analysis of the company&#8217;s financial results as reported under IFRS.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">A reconciliation of the IFRS financial information to non-IFRS financial information is included below:<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Cash, cash equivalents and current financial assets totaled $5.2\u00a0billion as of June 30, 2026, compared to $4.4 billion as of December 31, 2025.
