The changes in scope of consolidation include additions amounting to € 17.4 million (2010: € 474.2 million) and disposals amounting to € 5.2 million (2010: 7.3 million). The additions are due mainly to the acquisition of the microbiology business of Biotest AG. Deconsolidations are due to the divestment of Serono Contracting Ltd., United Kingdom.

Impairment losses totaled € 167.4 million in fiscal 2011. Of this amount, € 165.1 million was attributable to the Large-Scale Biotech (LSB) production facility of the Merck Serono division in Corsier-sur-Vevey, Switzerland and is reported under “Other operating expenses”.

Property, plant and equipment amounting to € 3.2 million served as collateral (2010: € 8.1 million). Total government grants and subsidies during the fiscal year amounted to € 14.8 million (2010: € 11.5 million).

Property, plant and equipment also includes assets that are leased. The total value of capitalized leased assets amounted to € 16.5 million (2010: € 11.6 million) and the corresponding obligations amounted to € 11.8 million (2010: € 7.1 million) (see Note [28]).
