The Group leases certain of its installation and machinery under finance leases. For the year ended 31 December 2014, the average borrowing rate was 6.27% (2013: 6.17%). The interest rates were fixed at the date of the contracts. All leases are on a fixed repayment basis and no arrangements have been entered into for contingent rental payments.

The decrease in leased assets in 2014 is mainly related to a finance lease of lab equipment in the Belgian entity which ended in 2014.

The fair value of the Group’s lease obligations approximates their carrying value.
