At the end of Q4 '13 the carrying value of our outstanding borrowings was €173 million (Q4 '12: €247 million). The nominal amount of the outstanding borrowings excluding the transaction costs was €175 million (Q4 '12: €250 million).
Current liabilities excluding deferred revenue were €383 million compared to €398 million at the end of Q4 '12. The year on year decrease was mainly driven by lower provisions in 2013. Trade payables amounted to €82 million, €2 million lower compared to Q4 '12. Tax and social security liabilities amounted to €28 million compared to €33 million at the end of Q4 '12. This decrease is mainly due to a lower corporate income tax provision.
Deferred revenue for the quarter ended at €114 million (Q4 '12: €95 million). The main reason for the year on year increase is related to the increase of deferred revenue related to the lifetime maps content and lifetime traffic services bundled in our PND ranges.
At 31 December 2013 we had a net cash position of €83 million (Q4 '12: net debt of €86 million). Net cash is the sum of the cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period (€258 million) minus the outstanding gross borrowings (€175 million).
Cash flow
Cash flow from operating activities for the quarter was €51 million compared to €91 million in Q4 '12. The year on year decrease was mainly driven by lower results and higher working capital utilisation in Q4 '13.
On a full year basis, we generated strong cash flow from operating activities of €260 million compared to €167 million in 2012. Excluding the one-off €80 million refund from the Dutch tax authorities, our cash flow from operating activities was €180 million which represents an 8% increase year on year. The year on year increase is mainly attributed to strong working capital management.
The cash flow used in investing activities during the quarter increased by €7 million year on year to €21 million. On a full year basis the cash flow used in investing activities was €91 million, an increase of €40 million year on year. Maps continues to be our largest area of investment and we also saw increased activity in customer specific Automotive projects and in navigation software development.
