Bus/Financial - Investment / Securities
French term or phrase: SN comptable
In a memo on the details of an investment, here is the sentence and Y stand for company names):

[X] se présente aujourd'hui comme une structure de portage d'une partie du portefeuille de junk bonds (dont les revenus s'imputent sur le déficit reportable) et de détention de deux petites participations industrielles. La valeur comptable de [X] s'établit à 250 M livres chez [Y], ce qui n'est pas cohérent avec la SN comptable.
