The results of Etrion have been fully consolidated into the Lundin Petroleum consolidated accounts from 30 September 2009 and up until the distribution, and as such, there is no amount recorded for 2010 in the result from share in associated company. Included in the expense of MUSD 25.5 for the comparative period is an amount of MUSD 22.8 relating to the write down of Etrion’s Venezuelan oil and gas assets. Tax The tax charge for the reporting period amounted to MUSD 251.9 (MUSD 45.7) and is detailed in Note 12. The current tax charge on continuing operations for the reporting period amounted to MUSD 68.2 (MUSD 32.0). In the reporting period, there is a MUSD 36.1 (MUSD 2.2) current tax charge relating to Norway in respect of the 28 percent onshore tax regime where the losses brought forward have been utilised. The tax charge in Norway consists of both the 28 percent onshore regime and the 50 percent offshore regime. Certain tax allowances earned on development expenditure are currently offsetting the 50 percent Norway offshore tax regime The deferred tax charge amounted to MUSD 183.7 (MUSD 13.7) for the reporting period. The deferred tax charge for 2009 includes a MUSD 86.9 deferred tax release on the Lagansky block impairment taken in 2009. The Group operates in various countries and fiscal regimes where corporate income tax rates are different from the regulations in Sweden. Corporate income tax rates for the Group vary between 20 percent and 78 percent. The effective tax rate for the Group for the reporting period amounted to 66 percent including the gain on sales of assets. Excluding the gain on sales of assets, the effective tax rate for the Group for the reporting period amounted to 80 percent. These effective rates are calculated from the face of the income statement and do not reflect the effective rate of tax paid within each country of operation. The main contributor to the tax charge is Norway with an effective tax rate of 74 percent. Reported losses in non-operating entities, with zero or low tax credits recorded, increase the effective rate. The effective rate of cash tax payable in the reporting period is 22 percent excluding the gain on sale of assets, because tax loss carry forwards and exploration expenditure provided a tax deduction in Norway during the year. Non-controlling interest The net result attributable to non-controlling interest for the reporting period amounted to MUSD -13.4 (MUSD -125.8) and mainly relates to the non-controlling interest’s share in Etrion which was fully consolidated until the date of the distribution of the Etrion shares.
