10. Other financial result 10. OTHER FINANCIAL RESULT
The item other financial result includes the following special charges and revenues with regard to the acquisition of APP and its financing:
The registered and tradable Contingent Value Rights (CVR) awarded to the APP shareholders are traded at the NASDAQ Stock Exchange in the United States. The corresponding liability is therefore valued with the current stock exchange price at the reporting date. This valuation resulted in a revenue of € 75 million as of December 31, 2008.
Due to its contractual definition, the issued Mandatory Exchangeable Bonds (MEB) include derivative financial instruments that have to be measured at fair value. This measurement resulted in a revenue of € 28 million as of December 31, 2008. However, this measurement does not cause a change of the MEB’s nominal amount of € 554.4 million that has to be settled in ordinary shares of Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA (FMC-AG & Co. KGaA) upon maturity, but mainly reflects the share price development of these shares (see Note 23, Mandatory Exchangeable Bonds).
Furthermore, in the year 2008, the Fresenius Group incurred one-time financing expenses in an amount of € 35 million relating to the APP acquisition.
