Balance sheet 
 
The following tables showing segment assets and liabilities exclude those balances that make up net debt (cash and cash
equivalents, short-term investments, joint venture loans and other receivables, bank and other borrowings, finance lease
payables, derivative financial instruments and net debt of the disposal group). Net debt balances have been included within
the unallocated segment to reflect how the Group manages these balances. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated
other than intercompany transactions with Tesco Bank in net debt.

(a)      £(24)m relates to ongoing UK & ROI changes to store and call centre colleague structures and working practices,
whilst £(39)m relates to head office restructuring costs. 
 
(b)      The Group disposed of its remaining 8.8% investment stake in Lazada Group S.A. for net cash consideration of $254m
(£196m), generating a profit of £124m. The tax charge of £25m arises due to a capital gain on the disposal. 
 
(c)      As part of the Group's strategy to maximise value from property, the Group disposed of a property which generated
a profit of £44m and incurred a capital gains tax charge of £(7)m. The Group also recognised a net gain of £21m from the
unwind of its joint venture with British Land, whereby the Group purchased seven stores from the joint venture and disposed
of its remaining equity interest in the joint venture. 
 
(d)      The Group holds proceeds from the sale of the Korean operations in GBP money market funds in an intermediate
entity with a Euro functional currency. The £(68)m loss represents foreign exchange losses arising on the revaluation of
these sterling-denominated funds into Euros. The loss does not represent an economic loss to the Group since there is an
offset within other comprehensive income. 
 
(e)      Income from discontinued operations primarily relates to the release of a £340m provision relating to capital
gains tax in respect of the disposal of the Group's Korean operations, following completion of the tax assessment by Korean
Tax Authorities. This was offset by £(129)m net loss relating to the disposal of the Group's Turkish operations, primarily
due to the recycling of the currency translation reserve to the Group income statement. Refer to Note 7 for further
details.

 Taxation charge        138              40               
 
 
The tax charge in the Group income statement is based on management's best estimate of the full year effective tax rates by
geographical unit applied to half year profits, which is then adjusted for tax on exceptional items arising in the period
to 26 August 2017. 
 
The Finance Act 2016 included legislation to reduce the main rate of UK corporation tax from 20% to 19% from 1 April 2017
and to 17% from 1 April 2020. These rate reductions were substantively enacted by the balance sheet date and therefore
included in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
