Explanation: "Reversal" or "release" of provisions. The rest could conceivably be shortened to ".... prior-year tax provisions"
They over-provided in previous years (leading to an expense in the income statement) and have now reversed the provision (generating an income item in the income statement). Neither has any cash effect.
"des années antérieures" presumably refers to the provisions, not the taxes, as Phil Godddard remarked above.
