Net operating assets were virtually unchanged at CHF 19 bil­lion. The decrease in equity compared with the end of 2019 is due to the dividend payment of CHF 1,140 million in April 2020. Correspondingly, the equity ratio fell from 36.6% to 35.7%. Pension liabilities increased as a result of a negative return on plan assets and a lower discount rate.

Net debt

Net debt is composed of financial liabilities minus cash and cash equivalents, current financial assets, derivative financial instruments held to hedge financial liabilities and other non-current financial assets directly related to non-current financial liabilities (certificates of deposit, US treasury bond strips). Net debt and the net debt to EBITDA ratio are presented both with and without classification of leases as financial liabilities. For credit rating purposes, rating agencies include lease liabilities in the calculation of net debt. However, for the financial target of the Federal Council’s financing structure, leases are not classified as financial liabilities or part of net debt.
