James (Jim) Davis Jun 22, 2015:
My suspicion is that this is a write-down .. but in the absence of context, it is difficult to say. If I could see the name of the table, which part of the financial report it is in, the other adjacent items in the table, I would probably know with certainty. Please do your *best* to help us to help you. When I say "see", I need to see the orginal Italian.

Impairment / Permanent Impairment

Especially with regard to fixed assets or PPE.

Whilst "Permanent" need not always be specified, in the US, the GAAP includes a reference to "Permanent Impairment"
