Of the additions in the 2025 financial year, EUR 1,331 thousand (2024: EUR 810 thousand) relate to purchased intangible assets. Development costs are recognized as intangible assets if the specific requirements of IAS 38 are met, in particular the ability to generate future economic benefits.
The revaluation option was not exercised. Amortization is calculated according to the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives of the major asset classes are as follows:
Software/computer programs |
4 to 7 |
|---|---|
Licenses and other intangible assets |
|
Purchased |
4 to 25 |
Internally generated |
7 to 15 |
All items of intangible assets are tested for impairment in accordance with IAS 36 if there are any indications that these assets may be impaired (see note 10).
The amortization of concessions, industrial property rights, licenses, similar rights and internally generated intangible assets is presented in the cost of sales, selling expenses, administrative expenses as well as research and development expenses.
