"Financing terrorism" might need a little context. Terrorist band ETA had an extortion net that they called "revolutionary tax". People that refused to pay were threatened and often beaten, kidnapped or murdered.
So a lot of companies paid. Even if they had no sympathy for the criminals.
But there were other companies that didn't need much "convincing". Was this one of that kind? I have no idea.
Edit: oh, these are the owners of Eroski. I remember they were in the news a long time ago exactly for that. I don't remember how the trial ended, but some guy was definitely charged.
