Changes in working capital represented an outflow of €21 million over the year, compared to an inflow of €25 million in 2019. This decline is essentially attributable to Lagardère Travel Retail, offset by a favourable impact at Lagardère Publishing. The €95 million decrease at Lagardère Travel Retail reflects the sharp fall in trade payables and inventories owing to the trading slump across all regions. The €32 million improvement at Lagardère Publishing reflects a rise in trade payables in line with the business upturn in the second half of the year.
