Statutory Auditors’ report on the consolidated financial statement
I. Opinion
In compliance with the engagement entrusted to us by your Shareholders’ Meeting, we have audited the accompanying consolidated
financial statements of Christian Dior SE for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the Group’s assets, liabilities and financial position
as of December 31, 2020 and of the results of its operations for the fiscal year then ended in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
The audit opinion expressed above is consistent with our report to the Performance Audit Committee.
Audit framework
We conducted our audit in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. We believe that the audit evidence we have
obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the section of our report entitled “Statutory Auditors’ responsibilities
for the audit of the consolidated financial statements”.
Independence
We conducted our audit engagement in compliance with the independence rules provided by the French Commercial Code (Code de
commerce) and the French Code of Ethics (Code de déontologie) for Statutory Auditors, for the period from January 1, 2020 to the date of
our report. We did not provide any prohibited non‑audit services referred to in Article 5 (1) of Regulation (EU) 537/2014.

Consolidated financial statements
Statutory Auditors’ report on the consolidated financial statement
Risk identified
As of December 31, 2020, the value of the Group’s fixed assets totaled 60.7 billion euros. These fixed assets mainly comprise brands,
trade names and goodwill recognized on external growth transactions; property, plant and equipment (land, vineyard land, buildings,
and fixtures and fittings at stores and hotels in particular); and right‑of‑use assets.
We considered the valuation of these fixed assets to be a key audit matter, due to their significance in the Group’s financial statements
and because the determination of their recoverable amount, which is usually based on discounted forecast cash flows, requires the use
of assumptions, estimates and other forms of judgment, as specified in Notes 1.3 and 1.6 to the consolidated financial statements, while
the context of the Covid‑19 pandemic increases the degree of uncertainty and makes it more difficult to assess the outlook.
Our response
The Group tests these assets for impairment, as described in Notes 1.16 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements.
In this context, we assessed the methods used to perform these impairment tests and focused our work primarily on the Maisons most
affected by the negative changes in the current business environment, or where the carrying amount of intangible assets represents a
high multiple of profit from recurring operations.
We assessed the data and assumptions that served as the basis for the main estimates used, in particular forecast cash flows, assumptions
regarding a return to 2019 business levels, long‑term growth rates and the discount rates applied. We also analyzed the consistency
of forecasts with past performance and market outlook, and conducted impairment test sensitivity analyses. In addition, where the
recoverable amount is estimated by comparison with recent similar transactions, we corroborated the analyses provided with available
market data. All of these analyses were carried out with our valuation experts.
Lastly, we assessed the appropriateness of the information disclosed in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Risk identified
The success of the Group’s products, particularly in the Fashion and Leather Goods and the Watches and Jewelry business groups,
depends among other factors on its ability to identify new trends and changes in behaviors and tastes, enabling it to offer products
that meet consumers’ expectations.
The Group determines the amount of impairment of inventories and work in progress on the basis of sales prospects in its various
markets or due to product obsolescence, as specified in Note 1.18 to the consolidated financial statements. Amidst the Covid‑19
pandemic, provisions for inventory impairment were updated to reflect slower inventory turnover and more limited sales prospects
for seasonal products, as indicated in Note 1.3 to the consolidated financial statements.
We considered this to constitute a key audit matter since the aforementioned projections and any resulting impairment are intrinsically
dependent on assumptions, estimates and other forms of judgment made by the Group. Due to the Covid‑19 pandemic, the closure
of points of sale increases the level of uncertainty regarding the sale of inventories and generates a heightened risk of product returns.
Furthermore, inventories are present at a large number of subsidiaries, and determining this impairment depends in particular on
estimated returns and the monitoring of internal margins, which are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements unless and
until inventories are sold to non-Group clients.
Our response
As part of our procedures, we analyzed sales prospects as estimated by the Group in light of past performance and the most recent
budgets, including the impact of the Covid‑19 pandemic, in order to corroborate the resulting impairment amounts. Where applicable,
we assessed the assumptions made by the Group for the recognition of non‑recurring impairment. The consequences of slower
inventory turnover, more limited sales prospects for seasonal products and return risks were also analyzed.
We also assessed the consistency of internal margins eliminated in the consolidated financial statements, by assessing in particular the
margins generated with the various distribution subsidiaries and comparing them to the elimination percentage applied.

Consolidated financial statements
Statutory Auditors’ report on the consolidated financial statement
Risk identified
The Group’s activities are carried out worldwide, within what is often an imprecise regulatory framework that is different for each
country, changes over time and applies to areas ranging from product composition and packaging to the income tax computation and
relations with the Group’s partners (distributors, suppliers, shareholders in subsidiaries, etc.). Within this context, the Group’s activities
may give rise to risks, disputes or litigation, and the Group’s entities in France and abroad may be subject to tax inspections and, in
certain cases, to rectification claims from local administrations.
As indicated in Notes 1.21 and 20 to the consolidated financial statements:
• provisions for contingencies and losses correspond to the estimate of the impact on assets and liabilities of risks, disputes, or actual
or probable litigation arising from the Group’s activities;
• non‑current liabilities related to uncertain tax positions include an estimate of the risks, disputes and actual or probable litigation
related to the income tax computation, in accordance with IFRIC 23.
We considered this to constitute a key audit matter due to the significance of the amounts concerned and the level of judgment required
to monitor ongoing regulatory changes and evaluate these provisions in the context of a constantly evolving international regulatory
environment.
Our response
In the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our work consisted in particular in:
• assessing the procedures implemented by the Group to identify and catalogue all risks, disputes, litigation and uncertain tax positions;
• obtaining an understanding of the risk analysis performed by the Group and the corresponding documentation and, where
applicable, reviewing written confirmations from external advisors;
• assessing – with our experts, tax specialists in particular – the main risks identified and assessing the reasonableness of the assumptions
made by Group management to estimate the amount of the provisions and of liabilities related to uncertain tax positions;
• carrying out a critical review of analyses relating to the use of provisions for contingencies and losses, and of liabilities related
to uncertain tax positions, prepared by the Group;
• assessing – with our tax specialists – the evaluations drawn up by the Group’s Tax Department relating to the consequences
of changes in tax laws;
• assessing the appropriateness of information relating to these risks, disputes, litigation and uncertain tax positions disclosed in the
Notes to the financial statements.

Statutory Auditors’ report on the consolidated financial statement
Presentation format for the consolidated financial statements to be included in the Annual Financial Report
In accordance with Article 222‑3 III of the AMF’s General Regulation, your Company’s management has informed us of its decision
to postpone the application of the European Single Electronic Format as defined by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815
of December 17, 2018 to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2021. Consequently, this report does not include a conclusion on
compliance with this format in the presentation of the consolidated financial statements to be included in the Annual Financial Report
mentioned in Article L. 451‑1-2 I of the French Monetary and Financial Code (Code monétaire et financier).
We were appointed as Statutory Auditors of Christian Dior by the shareholders at your Shareholders’ Meetings held on May 15, 2003
(for MAZARS) and May 14, 2009 (for ERNST & YOUNG et Autres).
As of December 31, 2020, MAZARS was in the eighteenth consecutive year of its engagement and ERNST & YOUNG et Autres was
in its twelfth year.
ERNST & YOUNG Audit previously served as Statutory Auditor from 1997 to 2008.
VII. R
esponsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the consolidated
financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and for such internal control as management determines
is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as
a going concern, for disclosing any matters related to going concern, and for using the going concern basis of accounting unless it is
expected to liquidate the Company or to cease operations.
The Performance Audit Committee is responsible for monitoring the financial reporting process and the effectiveness of internal
control and risk management systems and where applicable, internal audit, regarding the accounting and financial reporting procedures.
The consolidated financial statements have been approved by the Board of Directors.
VIII. Statutory Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Our role is to issue a report on the consolidated financial statements. Our objective is to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether the
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole are free from material misstatement. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance,
but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards will always detect a material misstatement
when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As specified in Article L. 823‑10‑1 of the French Commercial Code (Code de commerce), our statutory audit does not include assurance on
the viability of the Company or the quality of management of the affairs of the Company.
As part of an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards applicable in France, the Statutory Auditor exercises
professional judgment throughout the audit and furthermore:
• identifies and assesses the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error;
designs and performs audit procedures responsive to those risks; and obtains audit evidence considered to be sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for its opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher
than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or overriding
internal control;

Consolidated financial statements
Statutory Auditors’ report on the consolidated financial statement
• obtains an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control;
• assesses the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures
made by management in the consolidated financial statements;
• assesses the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained,
whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern. This assessment is based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of its audit report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. If the Statutory Auditor concludes that a
material uncertainty exists, there is a requirement to draw attention in the audit report to the related disclosures in the consolidated
financial statements or, if such disclosures are not provided or inadequate, to issue a qualified or adverse audit opinion;
• assesses the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements and whether the consolidated financial statements represent
the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation;
• obtains sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within
the scope of consolidation to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. The Statutory Auditor is responsible for
the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the consolidated financial statements and for the opinion expressed on
these financial statements.
We submit a report to the Performance Audit Committee which includes in particular a description of the scope of the audit and the
audit program implemented, as well as the results of our audit. We also report any significant deficiencies in internal control regarding
the accounting and financial reporting procedures that we have identified.
Our report to the Performance Audit Committee includes the risks of material misstatement that, in our professional judgment, were of
most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year and which are therefore the key audit matters
that we are required to describe in this report.
We also provide the Performance Audit Committee with the declaration provided for in Article 6 of Regulation (EU) No. 537/2014,
confirming our independence within the meaning of the rules applicable in France such as they are set out in particular by Articles
L. 822‑10 to L. 822‑14 of the French Commercial Code (Code de commerce) and in the French Code of Ethics (Code de déontologie) for Statutory
Auditors. We discuss any risks that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and the related safeguards, with the
Performance Audit Committee.
