1.3\tConsolidation principles
The consolidated financial statements include the parent company, Fiskars Oyj Abp, and the subsidiaries in which it holds, directly or indirectly, over 50% of the voting rights or over which it otherwise has control. Acquired or established subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date control commences until the date that control ceases.

in consolidation.

translated into the Group's presentation currency at the average exchange rates for the period. Balance sheet items are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. The resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented under cumulative translation differences in equity. The effective portions of the gains or losses on those financial instruments hedging net investments in foreign operations are recognized similarly. When the group disposes of all, or part of that subsidiary, the translation differences accumulated in equity are transferred to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
Transactions in foreign currencies
Foreign currency transactions are translated using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Exchange differences arising from translation are recognized in the income statement and presented under financial items, except for exchange rate differences related to trade receivables and trade payables that are presented within operating profit. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction, except for those items carried at fair value that are translated using rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined.
1.5\tUse of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the management to make judgments and assumptions that affect the recognition and measurement of financial statement items. These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other justified assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the end of the reporting period. These estimates form the basis for judgments of the items in the financial statements. Development of markets and general economic situation may affect the variables underlying the estimates and actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. Significant accounting policies applied, and critical accounting estimates and judgments are described adjacent to each note.

Long-term incentive plans, settled in shares and/or cash
In December 2020, the Board of Directors approved the establishment of two share-based Long-term Incentive Plans. The plan includes a Performance Share Plan and a Restricted Share Plan.
The Performance Share Plan consists of annually commencing individual performance share plans, each with a three-year performance period, followed by the payment of the potential share reward. The Board of Directors will decide separately the commencement of each individual plan and their participants, the minimum, target and maximum rewards for each participant, as well as the performance criteria and related targets. The amount of the reward paid depends on the achievement of the set targets. No reward will be paid if the targets are not met. For the second 2022\u20132024 performance period the performance targets relate to
the company's absolute total shareholder return and EBIT. For the third 2023\u20132025 and forth 2024\u20132026 performance periods, the performance targets relate to the company's absolute total shareholder return, EBIT and advancement of circular products and services.
The Restricted Share Plan consists of annually commencing individual restricted share plans. The Board of Directors will decide separately the commencement of each individual plan. Each plan comprises an overall three-year retention period during which the Company may grant fixed share rewards to individually selected key employees. The company may choose to use a shorter retention period on a case by case basis within this overall three-year period. The granted share rewards will be paid after the retention period. The current commenced plans are for years 2022\u20132024, 2023\u20132025 and 2024\u20132026.
If the targets are reached, the rewards for both plans will be paid in the company\u2019s shares, after the deduction of the proportion that is required for covering taxes and tax-related costs due on the basis of the reward. However, the company may decide to pay the reward fully in cash. As a starting point, shares to be awarded to key employees based on Performance Share Plan or Restricted Share Plan will
be paid as existing shares of the company and thus the plans are not expected to have a diluting effect on the ownership of the company\u2019s shareholders. In February 2024, the Board of Directors approved the launch of new periods for the years 2024\u20132026 within the Performance Share Plan and Restricted Share Plan, which form a part of Fiskars remuneration program for its key employees. The aim of the plans is to support the implementation of the company\u2019s strategy and drive profitable growth and to align the objectives of key employees with the shareholders to increase the value of the company.

Employee Share Savings Plan, \"MyFiskars\", settled in shares and/or cash
In March 2023, the Board of Directors approved the establishment of an Employee Share Savings Plan, \"MyFiskars\", for the employees of Fiskars Group. The aim of MyFiskars is to invite employees to acquire and own Fiskars shares, and it is intended to create a culture of ownership as well as to further strenghten employees' long-term committment to the company.
MyFiskars consists of annually commencing plan periods, each one comprising a 12-month savings period and a holding period. The Board of Directors will decide separately the commencement of each individual plan. MyFiskars is offered to permanent employees who have been employed at Fiskars Group for 1 month or longer before the enrollment period. The employees are offered the chance to voluntarily save a proportion of their monthly salary
and to invest this in Fiskars shares. The savings will be used to acquire Fiskars shares for the participating employees quarterly after the publication dates of the company\u2019s interim reports. As a reward for their commitment, Fiskars Group grants the participating employees a gross reward of one free matching share for every two savings shares acquired. The matching shares will be granted if the participating employee remains employed at Fiskars Group at the end of the plan period and if they have kept the shares they have acquired with their savings until this date.
The potential reward will be settled in shares, or partly in shares and partly in cash, after the end of the holding period. The cash proportion is intended for covering taxes and tax-related costs arising from the reward in countries where the employer has the obligation to withhold taxes. Matching shares will be freely transferable after their registration in the
participant\u2019s book-entry account. Savings shares and matching shares are regular Fiskars shares and entitle the participants to dividends. The participants may choose whether they want to receive dividends in cash or invest the dividends in additional shares on the next acquisition date. The shares purchased with dividends will have an equal right to matching shares as the shares purchased with savings.
The first savings period commenced on 1 July 2023 and ended on 30 June 2024. The holding period began at the first acquisition of savings shares and ends on 30 June 2026. The second Employee Share Savings Plan was approved by the Board of Directors in March 2024. The first savings period commenced on 1 July 2024 and ends on 30 June 2025. The holding period began at the first acquisition of savings shares and ends on 30 June 2027.

Ownership Plan 2023 for the company's management, settled in shares and/or cash
In February 2023 the Board of Directors resolved to launch an Ownership Plan 2023 directed to the company\u2019s President and CEO, the Fiskars Group Leadership Team and certain key employees determined by the Board. The aim is to align the objectives of the shareholders and the management for increasing the value of the company in the long-term, to commit the target group to the company and to offer a competitive incentive program.
In the Plan, the target group is given an opportunity to receive free matching shares for their personal investment in Fiskars shares. The rewards based on the Plan will be paid after the end of the three-year matching period in 2026.
The prerequisite for receiving the matching shares is that the participant acquires shares within the limits set by the Board. If the participant\u2019s share acquisition prerequisite has been fulfilled and the employment or service relationship with a group company has not terminated by the payment date, the participant will receive reward shares gratuitously according to the matching ratio decided by the Board.
A total of 156,401 treasury shares were subscribed for in the directed share issue, which ended on March 3, 2023. Matching shares will be paid in new shares or treasury shares held by the company, as decided later by the Board.

2.7\tIncome taxes
Accounting principles
The Group\u2019s tax expense comprises current and deferred taxes. The current tax charge is calculated using the tax rate enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets are accounted for temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. A deferred tax liability is recorded to its full amount on taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, unutilized tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit or taxable temporary differences will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unutilized tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are assessed for realizability at the end of each reporting period. If it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow deferred tax asset utilization, carrying amount of deferred tax asset is reduced. Correspondingly, if it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available, reduction to deferred tax asset value is reversed.

Application of OECD Pillar Two model rules
Fiskars Group is within the scope of the OECD Pillar Two model rules. The Pillar Two legislation has been enacted in Finland, which is Fiskars Group's ultimate parent company's jurisdiction of residence, as well as in various other jurisdictions where Fiskars Group operates. The legislation became effective for the financial years starting 1 January 2024 or thereafter.
The Group applies the IAS 12 exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes and accounts for top-up tax as a current tax when it is incurred.
The Group has performed an assessment of its potential exposure to Pillar Two income taxes based on 2024 financial information for the constituent entities in the Group. Based on the assessment, the transitional safe harbour relief is applicable for all jurisdictions. Therefore, the Group has not accounted for any Pillar Two top-up taxes.
The Group is continuing to assess the impact of the Pillar Two legislation on its future financial performance.
2.8\tEarnings per share
The basic earnings per share is the annual profit for the period attributable to equity holders of the parent company divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Fiskars Group does not have any current share option programs or other diluting financial instruments, so the diluted earnings per share is the same as basic.

3.1\tIntangible assets
Accounting principles
An intangible asset is initially recognized in the balance sheet at cost if the cost can be measured reliably and it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the group. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at each financial year-end and, if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. Those borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the Group\u2019s share of difference between the cost of the acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities acquired, measured at the acquisition date. Goodwill is stated at historical cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually. For this purpose goodwill has been allocated to cash-generating units (CGU). The recoverable amount of the unit is compared annually or more often if there are indications of impairment, with its carrying amount to determine potential impairment.
Research and development costs
Research and development costs are expensed as they are incurred, except for those development costs that are capitalized if the criteria in IAS 38 are met. Capitalized development costs consisting of mainly direct labor costs and external services are recognized as intangible assets. In 2024, research and development expenses amounted to EUR 18.8 million (2023: 19.8).
Intangible assets not yet available for use are tested annually for impairment. Subsequently capitalized development costs are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. They are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, from 3 to 6 years.
Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets include among other patents, capitalized development costs, software, as well as trademarks and customer relationships acquired in business combinations. Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment. Intangible assets in this class are amortized on a straight-line basis over their known or expected useful lives. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at the end of reporting period, and if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Software\t3\u201310 years
Customer relationships\t5\u201315 years
Other\t3\u201310 years
Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life such as trademarks or brand names acquired in business combinations are not amortized but they are tested at least annually for impairment.

Accounting principles
Fiskars Group's operations have been divided into cash-generating units (CGU) that are similar to the primary reporting segments. The carrying amounts of the assets relating to these CGUs are reviewed for impairment indicators annually at the end of the reporting period. The recoverable amounts of the following assets are also estimated annually irrespective whether there is any indication for impairment: goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and unfinished intangible assets.
To determine a potential impairment the carrying amount of the asset, or the carrying amounts of the CGU\u2019s net assets are compared against the recoverable amount of that asset or CGU. The recoverable amount is the higher of the present value of the future cash flows (value in use) and the fair value less costs to sell. An impairment loss is recognized for an asset when its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. An impairment loss previously recognized for items of property, plant, and equipment as well as for intangible assets other than
goodwill is reversed subsequently only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset\u2019s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset\u2019s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortization or depreciation, if no impairment loss had been recognized for the asset in prior years. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed.
Goodwill impairment test in cash-generating units
Goodwill is not amortized but is tested at least annually for impairment. Goodwill has been allocated to cash-generating units as at December 31, 2024 and 2023 as follows:
EUR million | 2024 | 2023 |
Vita | 223.9 | 217.6 |
Fiskars | 1.9 | 2.5 |
Total | 225.9 | 220.1 |
The primary reporting segments, which form the CGUs, are Vita and Fiskars. The recoverable amounts from CGUs are determined with value in use method, using five-year discounted cash flow projections, based on strategic plans approved by management for years 2025\u20132027, and after this cash flows are estimated for two year period before calculating the terminal value. Cash flows for the period extending over the five year planning period are calculated using the terminal value method. The discount rate is the weighted average post-tax cost of capital (WACC) as defined by Fiskars Group. The components of the WACC are risk-free rate, market risk premium, company-specific risk premium, industry specific equity beta, cost of debt and debt to equity ratio. WACC components have been updated to present the
current market conditions. As a result of the annual impairment tests, no impairment was recognized on goodwill in 2024, or in 2023.
Fiskars Group has ten trademarks whose aggregate carrying amount is EUR 285.0 million (2023: 287.2). Since the benefits from trademarks are indefinite, they are not amortized but are tested at least annually for impairment using a royalty relief method. An exception for this principle is trademark Hackman for which amortization has begun in 2017 (amortization period 20 years). Cash flows attributable to trademarks are derived by identifying revenues from sales of products belonging to each trademark. The value in use of trademarks is determined on a discounted cash flow method basis, derived from five-year cash flow projections, based on strategic plans approved by the management. Cash flows for the period extending over the planning period are calculated using the terminal value method. Georg Jensen trademark which was acquired during 2023 was included in impairment testing for the first time in 2024. As a result of the annual impairment tests, no impairment was recognized on trademarks in 2024, or in 2023.

Sensitivity analyses
Sensitivity analyses of goodwill have been carried out for the valuation of each CGU by making downside scenarios for key parameters. The management views that no reasonably possible change in any of the key parameters would lead to impairment as the recoverable amounts exceed the carrying amounts. The recoverable amount exceeds the carrying amounts after changes in the key parametres.
Sensitivity analyses of trademarks have been carried out for the valuation of each trademark by making downside scenarios for key parameters. Certain trademarks show sensitivity to changes in specific assumptions. Iittala is sensitive to changes in the WACC used, terminal growth rate and royalty rate used. Waterford is sensitive to changes in WACC and royalty rate used and Gingher is sensitive to a change in royalty rate.
3.2\tProperty, plant and equipment
Accounting principles
Property, plant, and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses, if applicable. Those borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.
Depreciation is charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at each financial year-end and, if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Buildings\t20\u201340 years
Machinery and equipment\t3\u201310 years
Land and water\tNo depreciation
Gains and losses on sales and disposals of property, plant, and equipment are presented in other operating income and other operating expenses.

3.3\tRight-of-use assets
Accounting principles
Fiskars Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Right-of-use assets
Fiskars Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, including the initial measurement of lease liabilities, any initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received.
Subsequently right-of-use asset is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term, generally as follows:
Real estate\t3\u201315 years
Other assets\t3\u20135 years
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option. It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Fiskars Group has lease contracts for real estate, machinery, vehicles and other equipment used in its operations. Real estate leases generally have lease terms between 3 and 15 years, while other assets generally have lease terms between 3 and 5 years. Several lease contracts include extension and termination options and variable lease payments. Lease liabilities are described in Note 5.5 Lease liabilities.

3.4\tBiological assets
Accounting principles
Biological assets are measured at their fair value less costs to sell them. Biological assets consist of growing stock of Group\u2019s forest assets in Finland. The change in fair value resulting from both growth and change in the market value of standing timber is presented as a separate line item in the Consolidated Income Statement after operating profit (EBIT). The revenue from the sale of standing timber is presented in the Consolidated Income Statement within the operating profit.
There are no existing active markets for forest assets. Therefore, the biological asset valuation is made by using the discounted future cash flows. Cash flows are based on forest management plan taking into account forestry costs and harvesting incomes from one growth cycle. For valuing harvesting incomes, Fiskars applies a three-year rolling average price of standing timber, based on the statistics provided by the Natural Resources Institute Finland, adjusted with company specific price components.
The fair value measurements of biological assets are categorized within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Fiskars Group owns a total of appr. 14,000 hectares of forest, or which 11,000 are managed forest land.
3.5\tInvestment property
Accounting principles
The properties that are not used in the Group\u2019s operations or which are held to earn rental income or increase in value are classified as investment property. These properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Investment properties are depreciated over 20\u201340 years on a straight-line basis. Land is not depreciated.

Investment Property comprises the parent company's buildings and zoned and unbuilt lots for detached houses in Fiskars Village, Finland.
Fair value
Properties in Fiskars Village are unique in their cultural and historical values. Therefore it is not possible to determine a comparable market value on those properties. The book value of these properties, located in Finland, were EUR 6.3 million in 2024 (2023: 5.3).
4.1\tInventories
Accounting principles
Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in first-out (FIFO) method. The cost of finished goods and work-in-progress comprise direct purchase and manufacturing costs, other direct costs and a proportion of the related production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Net realizable value is the estimated amount that can be realized from the sale in normal course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are presented net of write-down recognized for obsolete and slow-moving inventories.

4.2\tTrade and other receivables
Accounting principles
Trade receivables are measured at amortized cost. According to the simplified impairment model under IFRS 9, an allowance amounting to lifetime expected credit losses is recognized at first reporting date. To measure the lifetime expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on aging categories. An allowance for doubtful receivables is measured based on historical loss rates adjusted by forward looking estimates and individual assessment. The inputs used in the model are updated on a regular basis. Impairment is recognized as an expense in Other operating expenses. If an amount previously recognized to Consolidated Income Statement is subsequently settled, it is recognized as a reduction to Other operating expenses.

Supplier Financing Arrangements
Fiskars Group has a supplier financing arrangement in place with a partner bank. Under the arrangement, the suppliers participating in the program may receive early payment of their invoices from the bank, who agrees to pay amounts due to the suppliers in respect of invoices owed by Fiskars Group. Fiskars Group subsequently repays the bank on the original invoice date. The principal purpose of this arrangement is to improve the working capital management for Fiskars Group and provide suppliers with an option to enhance their liquidity through early payment. Fiskars Group includes the amounts subject to the arrangement within trade payables as the nature and function of these payables remains the same as those of other trade payables.

The supplier financing arrangement allows Fiskars Group to centralise payments of trade payables to the bank rather than paying the current suppliers individually. From Fiskars Group perspective, the arrangement does not significantly extend payment terms beyond the normal terms agreed with other suppliers that are not participating. However, due to the arrangement, cash outflows are more predictable.
4.4\tEmployee defined benefit obligations
Accounting principles
Group companies have various pension plans in accordance with local conditions and practices in the countries in which they operate. The plans are classified as either defined contribution plans or defined benefit plans. Under a defined contribution plan the group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. If the entity does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits in question, the Group will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions. All other plans not meeting the above criteria are classified as defined benefit plans. Most of the plans that group companies have are classified as defined contribution plans and related contributions are charged to the income statement in the year in which the payment obligation has arisen.
The costs for defined benefit pension plans are calculated and recognized under the terms of the plan based on actuarial calculations. Pension costs are recognized as expenses over the employees\u2019 service period. The pension obligation is measured as the present value of the estimated future contributions deducted by the fair value of plan assets at the end of the reporting period. Changes in the estimates in the actuarial calculations may influence the reported pension obligations and
pension costs. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI).
Most of Fiskars Group\u2019s pension plans are defined contribution plans. Vita business area has defined benefit plans in Indonesia, Japan and Slovenia. The defined benefit plans in the U.S., UK and Germany are closed plans, and future pay increases will not impact the valuation. The Group also has supplementary pension plans in Finland which are classified as defined benefit plans. Each plan is operated in accordance with local conditions and practices of the respective country. Authorized actuaries have performed the actuarial calculations for the defined benefit plans.
The main unfunded plans are in the U.S., Germany, Indonesia, Japan and Slovenia. Plan in Finland is taken care of by local pension insurance company. The Group estimates its contributions to the plans during 2025 to be EUR 1.3 (2024: 1.5) million.
Characteristics of the defined benefit plans and risks associated with them
EUR million | Net liability | ||
Plan | 2024 | 2023 | Description and risks |
Finland | 0.0 | 0.0 | There are 16 eligible members in the Finnish pension plans. The plans are funded insured pension plans, which are closed. Benefits of the plans are old age pension, disability pension, family pension and funeral grant. Pension increases are based on either insurance companies' own indexes or TyEL index. Main risks are changes in bond yields, increase in life expectancy and inflation risk. |
Germany | 0.7 | 0.8 | There are 60 eligible members in the German pension plans. The plans are either unfunded individual pension promises, or unfunded pension plans, which are closed. Benefits of the plans are old age pension, disability pension and widow's/widower's pension. Pension increases, if any, are based on inflation. Main risks are changes in bond yields, increase in life expectancy and inflation risk. |
Thailand | 2.5 | 2.0 | There are 1,158 eligible members in the Thai pension plan, which is a retirement benefit plan. Benefit of the plan is severance pay. There are no pension increases. Main risks are changes in bond yields and inflation risk. |
UK | There are 173 eligible members in the British pension plan, which is a closed pension fund. The plan has surplus (asset) of GBP 1.6 million at end of 2024 (2023: 1.6), which is not recognized as an assets due to asset ceiling. Benefits of the plan are old age pension, early retirement pension, widow's/widower's pension and death benefit. Pension increases are based on inflation. Main risks are volatility of equity instruments, changes in bond yields, increase in life expectancy and inflation risk. UK legislation requires the board to carry out actuarial valuations at least every three years and to target full funding against a basis that prudently reflects the fund\u2019s risk exposure, including the strength of the covenant offered to the fund by Fiskars UK Limited. The most recent actuarial valuation was carried out as at March 31, 2017. From July 31, 2017 the Company has agreed with the Trustee of the scheme a revised schedule of contributions for the scheme to reduce the annual contributions payable to GBP nil per annum. On December 5, 2017 the Company completed a buy-in of GBP 14.5 million of UK Scheme liabilities underwritten by the purchase of the annuity contract. The buy-in policy provides cash flows to match the benefits of the members covered, and is valued at higher than the present value of the defined benefit obligation for those members. The Fund administration costs at the end of 2017 has been recognized as an expense in the company's income statement, and under rules of IAS 19 applicable to the scheme, has been offset with recognition of other comprehensive income to generate nil impact on company reserves for in the period. | ||

Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on reasonably changes of the respective assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period and may not be representative of the actual change. It is based on a change in the key assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. A linear extrapolation of these amounts based on alternative changes in the assumptions as well as an addition of combined changes in the individual assumptions is not possible. There are no changes in the way the sensitivity analyses were performed compared to the previous years.

4.5\tProvisions
Accounting principles
A provision is recognized when the Group as a result of a past event has a present legal or constructive obligation, it is probable that the obligation will be realized and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A provision for restructuring is recognized when a detailed formal plan has been prepared and when there is a valid expectation relating those affected that the plan will be carried out. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting
period. If it is possible to receive compensation for a part of the obligation from a third party, the compensation is recognized as a separate asset, but only when receipt of the compensation is virtually certain.
Fiskars Group may be a party to lawsuits and legal processes concerning the Group\u2019s business operations. A related provision is recognized in the financial statements when the amount of the expenditure can be estimated reliably and it is more likely than not that they will be realized. Otherwise these contingent liabilities are disclosed in the notes.
Warranty provisions relate to products sold and are reviewed and adjusted regularly to reflect the estimated cash outflows to settle the warranty claims. Other provisions include, among others, provisions for legal expenses and estimated costs for refurnishment of premises.

5.2\tFinancial risk management
Financial risks are managed centrally by the Group Treasury in accordance with the Treasury Policy approved by the Board of Directors.
Currency risk
Currency risk refers to changes in income statement, cash flow, balance sheet and competitiveness of Fiskars Group due to changes in exchange rates. Fiskars Group's transaction and translation positions are managed separately.
Transaction risk
Transaction risk arises from foreign currency denominated cash flows, and is measured as net of commercial and financial receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies. The objective of managing the transaction risk is to reduce the impact of changes in exchange rates on the profit and cash flow of the Group. Group companies are responsible for managing the currency risks associated with their commercial cash flows and to hedge their exposure using currency forwards entered into with the Group Treasury. The net position is hedged with currency derivatives in accordance with the Treasury policy approved by the Board of Directors.
The most significant risks relate to appreciation of DKK, THB and USD, and to depreciation of SEK, AUD and JPY. Fiskars Group is exposed to rate changes in the local currencies of its suppliers, of which the most important is CNY.
Fiskars Group does not apply hedge accounting on foreign exchange derivatives as defined in IFRS 9. All
gains and losses resulting from currency derivatives are booked in the income statement. Had hedge accounting been applied on currency derivatives, Fiskars Group\u2019s consolidated profit before tax for 2024 would have been EUR 2.5 million lower (0.8 million higher in 2023).
Translation risk
Translation risk refers to the impact of changes in exchange rates on the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of cash flows and consolidated balance sheet. These changes can also impact key indicators, such as net debt/LTM EBITDA (excl. IAC), equity ratio and gearing. Translation risk is not hedged.
Interest rate risk
Exposure of the values of cash flows, assets and liabilities to interest rate fluctuations gives rise to interest rate risk. In Fiskars Group it is measured by the average interest rate reset period of financial liabilities excluding lease liabilities. The average reset period reflects the time it takes on average for the change in interest rates to impact the interest costs of the debt portfolio. The risk is quantified in monetary terms as the change in interest costs during the observation period caused by a permanent one percentage point rise in interest rates. The shorter the average reset period, the more unpredictable are the interest costs.
Derivatives may be used in the management of interest rate risks, and hedge accounting is applied on interest derivatives. The objective is to maintain the average reset period within the limits of 6 to 48
months as set out in the Treasury policy. Interest rate swaps can be treated as cash flow hedges or as fair value hedges. Cash flow hedges are entered into to offset exposure to variability in cash flows of floating rate debt. Fair value hedges mitigate the risk of exposure to changes in the fair value of the issued bond, on which a fixed yearly coupon is paid. As of December 31, 2024 the Group had interest rate swaps in the amount of EUR 165.0 million outstanding (2023: EUR 165.0 million). The Group\u2019s interest-bearing net debt excluding leasing liabilities as of December 31, 2024 was EUR 346.3 million (2023: 295.8). Of the debt 46% (48%) was linked to variable interest rates. The average interest rate reset period of the debt was 22 months (2023: 28 months).
Sensitivity of interest expenses on changes in market rates has been calculated by assuming permanent one percentage point increase in market rates and assuming no change in net debt during the year. The calculated impact on the consolidated result before tax would be EUR -1.3 million (2023: -0.8 million) in 2024.
Liquidity and refinancing risk
Liquidity risk refers to the risk of the Group\u2019s financial assets and sources of funding proving insufficient to fund its business operations or the risk of a situation where arranging such funding would result in substantial additional costs. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain an optimal amount of liquidity to fund the business operations of the Group at all times while minimizing interest costs. Liquidity is considered to be the sum of cash and cash
equivalents and available committed credit lines. The amount of needed liquidity is regularly assessed.
Refinancing risk refers to exposure to unavailability or prohibitively expensive price of financing at the time of maturity of expiring financing lines. The objective of refinancing risk management is to minimize the risk by diversifying the maturity structure of the debt and loan facility portfolio.
Fiskars Group had EUR 250.0 million (250.0) of long-term committed credit facilities and uncommitted overdraft facilities of EUR 51.7 million (49.4). A commercial paper program of 400.0 million was available with Nordic banks. Of the long-term committed credit facilities EUR 0.0 million was in use (0.0), and of the commercial paper program EUR 75.2 million (92.4) was in use.
Commodity risk
Fiskars Group is exposed to fluctuations in the prices of certain commodities. The Group may use derivatives to hedge its exposure to this risk where appropriate. At the end of the year, the Group held outstanding commodity swaps in gold and silver to hedge the purchase price of these commodities. The nominal value of these derivatives amounted to EUR 6.4 million (4.3). Hedge accounting is not applied on commodity derivatives.
Credit risk
Group Treasury is responsible for evaluating and monitoring financial counterparty risk. The Group minimizes this risk by limiting its counterparties to creditworthy banks and financial institutions and by
working within defined counterparty limits. Sales function is responsible for monitoring customer credit risks. The Group\u2019s clientele is extensive and even the largest customers represent less than 10% of the outstanding receivables. As of the end of the year, the Group\u2019s trade receivables totaled EUR 188.9 million (2023: 177.2). The financial statements include provisions for bad debt related to trade receivables totaling EUR 5.7 million (2023: 3.8).
Management of capital
Fiskars is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements (other than possible local company law requirements effective in the jurisdictions where Fiskars Group companies are active).
The Group\u2019s objectives when managing capital are:
to safeguard the Group\u2019s capacity to fund its operations and take care of its obligations
to maintain a balanced business portfolio that provides return both on short and long term to its shareholders
to maintain possibilities to act on potential investment opportunities
to maintain an equity ratio that exceeds 40%
to maintain a net debt to last 12 months' EBITDA (excl. IAC) ratio of maximum 2.5
5.3\tFinancial assets
Accounting principles
Financial assets
Fiskars Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, and financial assets at amortised cost. Financial assets are classified at initial recognition based on their purpose of use. For assets not at fair value through profit or loss, the directly attributable transaction costs are included in the original costs of the financial assets. All purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized or derecognized using trade date accounting. The Group derecognizes financial assets when it has lost its right to receive the cash flows or when it has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards to an external party. Fair value categories of financial instruments are explained in Note 5.4.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and via other comprehensive income
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets that are held for trading or are designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition (the fair value option). In Fiskars Group this category comprises investments in listed securities,
and derivative instruments on which hedge accounting is not applied, as well as interest rate swaps hedging fair value.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value both at initial recognition and subsequently. The fair values of the listed securities are based on quoted rates at the end of the reporting period, and both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the income statement under financial items. The fair value measurement principles of derivative instruments are described in Note 5.6.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include listed shares. These assets are measured at fair value at initial recognition and subsequently. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets at amortised cost are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are not held for trading or designated as available for sale upon initial recognition. This category comprises trade receivables and other receivables. It also includes deposits to guarantee leases and other similar items presented under
Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Trade and other receivables are described in more detail in Note 4.2.
Loans and other receivables are measured at amortized cost. The allowance for expected credit losses is based on the risks of the individual items. Carrying amounts of receivables are adjusted to their probable value as a result of this assessment. Loans and receivables are included in current or non-current assets based on their term to maturity. Amounts expected to be recovered or settled in no more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are included in current assets.
Cash and cash equivalents
The balance sheet item Cash and cash equivalents includes cash, i.e. cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents comprise highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. The items included in cash equivalents have original maturities of maximum three months from the date of acquisition. Bank overdrafts are included in current interest-bearing financial liabilities. Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortized cost.

5.4\tFinancial liabilities
Accounting principles
Financial liabilities and borrowing costs
Fiskars Group classifies its financial liabilities in the following categories: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (includes derivative liabilities) and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. A financial liability is initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost or, in the case of the issued sustainability linked bond, valued using the effective interest rate method. Fair value hedges in the amount of EUR 60 million have been entered into to hedge the fair value of the issued bond. To the extent the fair value of the bond is hedged, the carrying amount is adjusted by the change in fair value. Derivative liabilities are measured at fair value. Financial liabilities are classified as non-current or current. The latter group comprises all those financial liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period. The Group removes a financial liability (or a part of it) from its balance sheet only when it is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Arrangement fees related to loans and loan commitments are amortized over the expected loan term. Georg Jensen A/S had an outstanding bond with a nominal amount of EUR 40 million. The bond was redeemed early on the 26 October 2023 in its entirety. In 2023, a redemption premium of EUR 1.1 million, interest expense of EUR 0.9 million and make-whole interest in the amount of EUR 1.3 million were paid in connection with the early redemption.

Loans from credit institutions are valued at amortized cost. Issued bonds are valued using effective interest rate method. The fair values of loans from credit institutions have been calculated by discounting the cash flow of the debt by the market rate at the end of reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). The fair value of the bond is calculated based on the market quotations at the end of the reporting period (level 1).
The sustainability linked bond issued 16 November 2023 is unsecured and carries a yearly coupon of 5,125%. The coupon is subject to sustainability performance targets pertaining to Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions reduction by 50% by year-end 2026 versus 2017, and to 60% of the suppliers by spend of the Group having science-based emission reduction targets by year-end 2024. The step-up margin equals 0,375% p.a. for the last interest period if the first target is not met, and 0,125% p.a. for the last three interest periods if the second target is not met. The principal amount of the bond equals EUR 200 million, and the maturity of the bond is 16 November 2028.
In 2024, Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions (KPI 1) increased by 4% compared to 2023 and decreased by 54% compared to the base year 2017.
Testing date in respect of KPI 1 is year-end 2026 and therefore there is no impact from the first target on the bond characteristics at the end of 2024. At the end of 2024, 64% of Fiskars Group\u2019s suppliers by spend covering purchased goods and services had set science-based targets (KPI 2). Fiskars has now achieved the second KPI target and therefore confirms that there is no impact from the second target on the bond characteristics. Verification has been performed by an external and independent reviewer as part of this report. For more information on the KPIs and definitions, please refer to Fiskars Group\u2019s Sustainability-linked bond framework, which is available on the Company\u2019s website.

Maturity of liabilities
As of December 31, 2024 the Group had unused committed credit facilities EUR 250.0 million (2023: 250.0) at its disposal to guarantee its liquidity. The average maturity of the credit limit agreements as of December 31, 2024 was 3 years (2023: 2). Maturities of long term loans are presented in the below table. Agreements concerning credit facilities and long term loans include a covenant for the solidity. The covenant is tested at the end of each quarter until the maturity of the credit facilities and term loans. Breach of covenant requires material deterioration of the solidity from the current, and the Group has no indication that it will have difficulty complying with this covenant. The issued bond does not include financial covenants, but the future coupon payments are linked to achievement of certain sustainability metrics.

Sensitivity analysis of currency exposure
The exchange rate sensitivity analysis in accordance with IFRS 7 indicates how the profit before taxes or consolidated Group equity would be impacted by a 10% depreciation of a currency. The impact of a 10% appreciation of a currency would be approximately the opposite. The analysis of impact on profit includes internal and external foreign currency denominated financial items of the parent company in the selected currencies. Estimated commercial cash flows of the Group companies consist of net purchases and sales in foreign currencies during the subsequent year. Derivatives include transactions to hedge the estimated commercial flows. Other financial items include foreign currency denominated loans, deposits and investments. The selected currencies represent approximately 90% of the commercial net foreign currency flows. The sensitivity analysis on the consolidated Group equity illustrates translation risk related to the foreign currency denominated equity.

Average interest rates and sensitivity analysis of interest expenses
The sensitivity of interest expenses on changes in interest rates has been presented by simulating a permanent one percentage unit rise in interest rates at the end of the reporting year. The Group's net interest bearing debt excluding financial leases as of December 31, 2024 was EUR 346.3 million (2023: 295.8) and the average interest reset period of interest-bearing debt was 22 months (2023: 28). A permanent one percentage point rise in all interest rates would increase the corporation's annual interest costs by EUR 1.3 million (2023: 0.8) assuming no change in the amount of the net debt.
The table below shows the Group's net interest bearing debt excluding leasing liabilities, currency derivatives, average interest rates on loans and interest rate sensitivity by major currencies.

Fair value of financial instruments
Accounting principles
Fair value categories
Hierarchy level 1 includes financial assets and liabilities that are publicly quoted in an active market. This category includes listed financial instruments. Level 2 includes financial assets and liabilities measured using directly observable market inputs. Other than publicly quoted interest-bearing debts and derivatives fall within this category. Level 3 includes financial assets and liabilities measured using non-market observable inputs. The asset classes in this category are unlisted equity investments and funds.

5.5\tLease liabilities
Accounting principles
Fiskars Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, Fiskars Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of future unpaid lease payments. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group, and payments of penalties
for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date as typically the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily available. Subsequently lease liability is measured using the effective interest rate method, and the carrying amount of lease liability is increased with the interest on the lease liability, reduced with the amount of lease payments made, and adjusted to reflect any reassessments or lease modifications made. The carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
Fiskars Group has lease contracts for various items of real estate, machinery, vehicles and other equipment used in its operations. Right-of-use assets are presented in Note 3.3 Right-of-use assets.

5.6\tDerivatives
Accounting principles
Derivatives and hedge accounting
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized at fair value through profit and loss. The Group does not apply hedge accounting on foreign exchange derivatives. Foreign exchange derivatives are initially valued at cost and subsequently at fair value determined at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of derivatives is based on prevailing market rates or rates derived from the prevailing market rates at the end of the reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). Fair value changes are recognized in financial items in profit and loss.
Fiskars Group applies hedge accounting to interest rate swaps (cash flow hedges and fair value hedges). Derivatives on which hedge accounting is applied are initially valued at cost and subsequently at fair value at the end of each reporting period. To the extent the cashflow hedges are effective, the fair value change including deferred tax is recognized in equity through other comprehensive income. Any ineffectiveness is recognised in financial items in profit and loss. Fair value changes of fair value hedges are recognized in financial items in profit and loss. The fair value is based on prevailing market rates or rates derived from the prevailing market rates at the end of the reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2).
Hedge accounting is not applied on commodity derivatives. Fair value changes are recognized in financial items.

1In 2023, board member Julia Goldin acted as an advisor to the company in a separately defined assignment, for which she was paid market-based compensation which was EUR 15,714.
The key management consists of the Board of Directors, the President & CEO and the members of Corporate Management Team (Fiskars Group Leadership Team). The figures are presented on an accrual basis.
Fiskars Group Leadership Team belongs to share-based long-term incentive plans to which participants are selected by the Board of Directors annually. In 2024 there is one plan in place, Performance Share Plan 2021, which includes three on-going performance periods for years 2022-2024, 2023-2025 and 2024-2026. The Board of Directors confirms the targets separately for each performance period and they are based on the company\u2019s total shareholder return and cumulative comparable EBITA (performance period 2021-2023), total shareholder return and cumulative comparable EBIT (performance period 2022-2024) and total shareholder return, cumulative comparable EBIT and circular economy
(performance period 2023-2025) during the vesting period. No reward will be paid if targets are not met or if the participant\u2019s employment ends before reward payment. The expense recorded during the financial year for the corporate management team is included in the salaries and fees figures above.
Fiskars Group Leadership Team members who are part of Finnish social security system have a collective supplementary pension insurance, which includes an old-age pension at the retirement age, vested rights under certain conditions and indemnity payable at death. The amount of pension income is based on the insurance savings. The employer's contribution
to the insurance plan is 20% of the preceding year's income, excluding bonuses, for CEO and 16%-20% of the preceding year's income, excluding bonuses, for Fiskars Group Leadership Team excl. CEO.
The President and CEO\u2019s compensation consists of base salary, annual short-term incentive plan and a share-based long-term incentive plan. The President and CEO participates in the ongoing performance periods 2022-2024, 2023-2025 and 2024-2026 of the long-term incentive plan. The President and CEO\u2019s employment contract will end by the time of the statutory retirement age. The President and CEO and the Company have a notice period of six months.
Remuneration upon dismissal by the Company equals annual base salary, in addition to the salary for the six-month notice period.
On February 7, 2023, it was announced that the Board of Directors of Fiskars Group decided on a management share ownership program aimed at the company\u2019s CEO, the Group\u2019s management team, and certain key personnel determined by the Board. In a paid directed share issue, a total of 156,401 shares held by the company were subscribed. More information about the incentive scheme can be found in note 2.5 Share-based payments. As part of the program, the Board decided to offer market-based co-financing for the subscription of the company\u2019s shares by granting interest-bearing loans to the participants of the program. The maximum loan amount for the CEO and CFO was 50 percent and for other target groups 75 percent of the share investment amount. The total amount of financing granted by the company was EUR 1,357,328.70 (2023: EUR 1,206,274.00). The financing taken in March 2023 must be repaid by July 30, 2027, and the financing taken in March 2024 must be repaid by July 30, 2028.
Interest on the unpaid loan principal must be paid from the withdrawal date at a rate of 12-month Euribor plus a margin of 1.00 percent. Interest is due semi-annually on October 1 and April 1 until the entire loan is repaid. The borrowers have committed to pledging the purchased company shares as collateral for the loan repayment, if the Board later separately decides to approve the pledge based on the authorization received from the General Meeting of shareholders.

Acquisitions and divestments in 2023
Acquisition of Georg Jensen
On October 1, 2023, Fiskars Group announced that it has completed the acquisition of renowned Danish luxury lifestyle brand Georg Jensen by acquiring 100% of the shares of Georg Jensen Investment ApS. Georg Jensen is headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark and is present in over 10 countries. In 2022, Georg Jensen employed 1,205 employees (FTEs), net sales were EUR 158.1 million and EBIT was EUR 14.9 million.
The enterprise value of the acquisition was approximately EUR 155 million on a cash and debt free basis, and final consideration transferred after ordinary post-closing adjustments was EUR 124.7 million. The amount of consideration is final and does not carry any contingent consideration arrangements. Fiskars financed the acquisition with debt.
The acquisition supports Fiskars Group's Growth Strategy by expanding the company's luxury home brand portfolio, which already includes the iconic brands of Royal Copenhagen, Waterford and Wedgwood. Furthermore, reuniting the beloved Danish design brands Georg Jensen and Royal Copenhagen offers attractive commercial excellence opportunities. Georg Jensen\u2019s position in direct-to-consumer (DTC) channels is strong with over
50% of sales from own retail and e-commerce. In terms of markets, Fiskars Group sees potential to expand the brand\u2019s presence in China in particular. Commercial excellence, DTC and China are three of the four transformation levers in Fiskars Group\u2019s Growth strategy.
The transaction is expected to create significant cost synergies related to, for example, support functions and sourcing. The annual synergies are expected to amount approximately EUR 18 million, majority of which is expected to be realized by the end of 2025.
As a result of updated purchase price allocation Fiskars Group has on September 30, 2024 recognized a negative goodwill of EUR 19.4 million, when initial negative goodwill recognized was EUR 25.4 million. Main items driving fair value of net assets being higher than purchase consideration were valuation of trademark and customer lists, and inventory fair value step-up for finished goods.
The purchase price allocation in Annual report 2023 was provisional1and has been updated on September 30, 2024. The following table summarizes the consideration paid, provisional amounts for the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as well as cash flow impact at the date of acquisition. The net assets acquired are denominated in DKK. EUR values have been translated using foreign exchange rate prevailing at the date of acquisition.
1According to IFRS 3, adjustments to purchase price allocation are possible for a year after the closing of the acquisition, that being until September 30, 2024.

In October-December, the acquired business contributed comparable EBIT of EUR 12.2 million.
If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023, management estimated that the combined statement of income would have show net sales of EUR 1,225.2 million and EBIT of EUR 43.5 million. These pro forma amounts included the fair value adjustments determined as at December 31, 2022 for the period of January-September 2023. Comparable EBIT for the period of January-December would have been EUR 100.6 million.
Acquisition related costs of EUR 5.6 million were charged to Selling, general and administrative costs in the Consolidated statement of income in 2023 and presented as Items Affecting Comparability.

Litigation
Fiskars Group is involved in a number of legal actions, claims and other proceedings. Due to the nature of these proceedings, the final outcomes of these cases cannot be predicted. Taking into account the available information to date, these proceedings are not expected to have a material impact on the operations and financial position of the Group, nor impact the guidance for 2025. It is possible that based on later information, the view may be reconsidered. In particular, Fiskars Group\u2019s well-known and strong brands are exposed to e.g. infringement of intellectual property rights and therefore enforcement actions are part of ordinary business. Fiskars Group considers that investments made in enforcement actions are essential in order to protect and maintain the competitive edge created by our unique designs, innovations and strong brands.
Fiskars Group entities are subject to tax audits in certain countries. It is possible that tax audits may lead to reassessment of taxes.

1.2\tBasis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union,
observing the standards and interpretations effective on December 31, 2024.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared on historical cost basis except for financial assets and financial liabilities which are presented at fair value through profit or loss, and biological assets as well as assets and liabilities related to defined benefit pension plans that are measured at fair value.
Financial statements figures are presented mainly in millions of euros with one decimal. Figures presented are subject to rounding, which may cause that the sum of individual figures might differ from the presented aggregated column and row totals.
Where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified to achieve consistency in disclosure with current financial year amounts.
1.3\tConsolidation principles
The consolidated financial statements include the parent company, Fiskars Oyj Abp, and the subsidiaries in which it holds, directly or indirectly, over 50% of the voting rights or over which it otherwise has control. Acquired or established subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date control commences until the date that control ceases.
Subsidiaries are consolidated using the acquisition method. Inter-company transactions, profit distribution, receivables, payables and unrealized gains between group companies are eliminated
in consolidation. The profit or loss for the period attributable to the owners of the parent company and non-controlling interest is presented in the Consolidated Income Statement and the total comprehensive income for the financial year attributable to the owners of the parent company and non-controlling interest is presented in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. The non-controlling interest in equity is presented within equity, separately from the equity of the owners of the parent company.
Investments in associates in which Fiskars Group has a significant influence but not control are accounted for using the equity method. Significant influence usually exists when the group holds over 20% of the voting power of the entity or when the group otherwise has significant influence but not control. At the moment, there are no investments in associates with significant influence in the Fiskars Group.
1.4\tTranslation of foreign currency items
Translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Fiskars Group\u2019s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (\u2018the functional currency\u2019). These consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is the Group's presentation currency. In the consolidated financial statements income statements, statements of comprehensive income and cash flows of foreign subsidiaries are
translated into the Group's presentation currency at the average exchange rates for the period. Balance sheet items are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. The resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented under cumulative translation differences in equity. The effective portions of the gains or losses on those financial instruments hedging net investments in foreign operations are recognized similarly. When the group disposes of all, or part of that subsidiary, the translation differences accumulated in equity are transferred to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
Transactions in foreign currencies
Foreign currency transactions are translated using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Exchange differences arising from translation are recognized in the income statement and presented under financial items, except for exchange rate differences related to trade receivables and trade payables that are presented within operating profit. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction, except for those items carried at fair value that are translated using rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined.
1.5\tUse of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the management to make judgments and assumptions that affect the recognition and measurement of financial statement items. These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other justified assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the end of the reporting period. These estimates form the basis for judgments of the items in the financial statements. Development of markets and general economic situation may affect the variables underlying the estimates and actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. Significant accounting policies applied, and critical accounting estimates and judgments are described adjacent to each note.
1.6\tNew and amended standards applied in financial year ended
Fiskars Group has applied amendments and interpretations published by IASB that are effective for the first time for financial reporting periods commencing on January 1, 2024. These amendments and interpretations did not have a material impact on the results or financial position.

Accounting principles
Fiskars Group's organizational structure features two Business Areas (BA): Vita and Fiskars. In addition, Fiskars Group reports net sales for three geographical areas: Europe, Americas and Asia-Pacific.
The performance of the operating segments is reviewed regularly by the chief operating decision-maker, Fiskars Group\u2019s Board of Directors, to assess performance and to decide on allocation of resources. The operating segments, Vita, Fiskars and Other are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The performance of the segments is reviewed based on segments\u2019 operating profit (EBIT). The accounting principles of the segments are the same as those used in the preparation of the financial statements. Financial income and expenses, and income taxes are managed on Group level and thus, not allocated to operating segments.
Operating profit
In Fiskars Group, the operating profit (EBIT) is the net of revenues and other operating income, material purchases and change of inventories, production for own use, employee benefits, depreciations, amortizations and possible impairments and other operating expenses. The operating profit includes operating results of Fiskars Group's primary operating segments Vita, Fiskars and Other. Change in fair value of biological assets is presented as a separate line item below EBIT in the income statement.
Net sales and revenue recognition
In the Consolidated Income Statement, Net sales comprise the sales of goods and services, adjusted with indirect taxes, discounts, rebates, fees and penalties as well as the exchange rate differences of sales denominated in foreign currency. The share of services of total net sales is not significant. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when performance obligation is satisfied. Performance obligation is satisfied when control is transferred to a customer, typically at the time when a product has been delivered to a customer in accordance with the terms of delivery. \"
Accounting principles
Other operating income includes income other than that associated with the sale of goods or services, such as gain on disposal or sale of fixed assets, rental income and other similar income not classified to revenue.
Accounting principles
Other operating expenses include losses on the disposal or sale of fixed assets and other similar expenses not classified to other cost items.
Accounting principles
The Group\u2019s tax expense comprises current and deferred taxes. The current tax charge is calculated using the tax rate enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets are accounted for temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. A deferred tax liability is recorded to its full amount on taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, unutilized tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit or taxable temporary differences will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unutilized tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are assessed for realizability at the end of each reporting period. If it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow deferred tax asset utilization, carrying amount of deferred tax asset is reduced. Correspondingly, if it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available, reduction to deferred tax asset value is reversed.
Accounting principles
An intangible asset is initially recognized in the balance sheet at cost if the cost can be measured reliably and it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the group. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at each financial year-end and, if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. Those borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the Group\u2019s share of difference between the cost of the acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities acquired, measured at the acquisition date. Goodwill is stated at historical cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually. For this purpose goodwill has been allocated to cash-generating units (CGU). The recoverable amount of the unit is compared annually or more often if there are indications of impairment, with its carrying amount to determine potential impairment.
Research and development costs
Research and development costs are expensed as they are incurred, except for those development costs that are capitalized if the criteria in IAS 38 are met. Capitalized development costs consisting of mainly direct labor costs and external services are recognized as intangible assets. In 2024, research and development expenses amounted to EUR 18.8 million (2023: 19.8).
Intangible assets not yet available for use are tested annually for impairment. Subsequently capitalized development costs are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. They are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, from 3 to 6 years.
Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets include among other patents, capitalized development costs, software, as well as trademarks and customer relationships acquired in business combinations. Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment. Intangible assets in this class are amortized on a straight-line basis over their known or expected useful lives. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at the end of reporting period, and if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Software\t3\u201310 years
Customer relationships\t5\u201315 years
Other\t3\u201310 years
Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life such as trademarks or brand names acquired in business combinations are not amortized but they are tested at least annually for impairment.
Accounting principles
Property, plant, and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses, if applicable. Those borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.
Depreciation is charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at each financial year-end and, if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Buildings\t20\u201340 years
Machinery and equipment\t3\u201310 years
Land and water\tNo depreciation
Gains and losses on sales and disposals of property, plant, and equipment are presented in other operating income and other operating expenses.
Accounting principles
Fiskars Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Right-of-use assets
Fiskars Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, including the initial measurement of lease liabilities, any initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received.
Subsequently right-of-use asset is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term, generally as follows:
Real estate\t3\u201315 years
Other assets\t3\u20135 years
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option. It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Biological assets are measured at their fair value less costs to sell them. Biological assets consist of growing stock of Group\u2019s forest assets in Finland. The change in fair value resulting from both growth and change in the market value of standing timber is presented as a separate line item in the Consolidated Income Statement after operating profit (EBIT). The revenue from the sale of standing timber is presented in the Consolidated Income Statement within the operating profit.
There are no existing active markets for forest assets. Therefore, the biological asset valuation is made by using the discounted future cash flows. Cash flows are based on forest management plan taking into account forestry costs and harvesting incomes from one growth cycle. For valuing harvesting incomes, Fiskars applies a three-year rolling average price of standing timber, based on the statistics provided by the Natural Resources Institute Finland, adjusted with company specific price components.
The fair value measurements of biological assets are categorized within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Accounting principles
The properties that are not used in the Group\u2019s operations or which are held to earn rental income or increase in value are classified as investment property. These properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Investment properties are depreciated over 20\u201340 years on a straight-line basis. Land is not depreciated.
Accounting principles
Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in first-out (FIFO) method. The cost of finished goods and work-in-progress comprise direct purchase and manufacturing costs, other direct costs and a proportion of the related production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Net realizable value is the estimated amount that can be realized from the sale in normal course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are presented net of write-down recognized for obsolete and slow-moving inventories.
Accounting principles
Trade receivables are measured at amortized cost. According to the simplified impairment model under IFRS 9, an allowance amounting to lifetime expected credit losses is recognized at first reporting date. To measure the lifetime expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on aging categories. An allowance for doubtful receivables is measured based on historical loss rates adjusted by forward looking estimates and individual assessment. The inputs used in the model are updated on a regular basis. Impairment is recognized as an expense in Other operating expenses. If an amount previously recognized to Consolidated Income Statement is subsequently settled, it is recognized as a reduction to Other operating expenses.
Accounting principles
Group companies have various pension plans in accordance with local conditions and practices in the countries in which they operate. The plans are classified as either defined contribution plans or defined benefit plans. Under a defined contribution plan the group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. If the entity does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits in question, the Group will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions. All other plans not meeting the above criteria are classified as defined benefit plans. Most of the plans that group companies have are classified as defined contribution plans and related contributions are charged to the income statement in the year in which the payment obligation has arisen.
The costs for defined benefit pension plans are calculated and recognized under the terms of the plan based on actuarial calculations. Pension costs are recognized as expenses over the employees\u2019 service period. The pension obligation is measured as the present value of the estimated future contributions deducted by the fair value of plan assets at the end of the reporting period. Changes in the estimates in the actuarial calculations may influence the reported pension obligations and
pension costs. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI).
Accounting principles
A provision is recognized when the Group as a result of a past event has a present legal or constructive obligation, it is probable that the obligation will be realized and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A provision for restructuring is recognized when a detailed formal plan has been prepared and when there is a valid expectation relating those affected that the plan will be carried out. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting
period. If it is possible to receive compensation for a part of the obligation from a third party, the compensation is recognized as a separate asset, but only when receipt of the compensation is virtually certain.
Fiskars Group may be a party to lawsuits and legal processes concerning the Group\u2019s business operations. A related provision is recognized in the financial statements when the amount of the expenditure can be estimated reliably and it is more likely than not that they will be realized. Otherwise these contingent liabilities are disclosed in the notes.
Accounting principles
Financial assets
Fiskars Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, and financial assets at amortised cost. Financial assets are classified at initial recognition based on their purpose of use. For assets not at fair value through profit or loss, the directly attributable transaction costs are included in the original costs of the financial assets. All purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized or derecognized using trade date accounting. The Group derecognizes financial assets when it has lost its right to receive the cash flows or when it has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards to an external party. Fair value categories of financial instruments are explained in Note 5.4.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and via other comprehensive income
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets that are held for trading or are designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition (the fair value option). In Fiskars Group this category comprises investments in listed securities,
and derivative instruments on which hedge accounting is not applied, as well as interest rate swaps hedging fair value.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value both at initial recognition and subsequently. The fair values of the listed securities are based on quoted rates at the end of the reporting period, and both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the income statement under financial items. The fair value measurement principles of derivative instruments are described in Note 5.6.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include listed shares. These assets are measured at fair value at initial recognition and subsequently. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets at amortised cost are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are not held for trading or designated as available for sale upon initial recognition. This category comprises trade receivables and other receivables. It also includes deposits to guarantee leases and other similar items presented under
Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Trade and other receivables are described in more detail in Note 4.2.
Loans and other receivables are measured at amortized cost. The allowance for expected credit losses is based on the risks of the individual items. Carrying amounts of receivables are adjusted to their probable value as a result of this assessment. Loans and receivables are included in current or non-current assets based on their term to maturity. Amounts expected to be recovered or settled in no more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are included in current assets.
Cash and cash equivalents
The balance sheet item Cash and cash equivalents includes cash, i.e. cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents comprise highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. The items included in cash equivalents have original maturities of maximum three months from the date of acquisition. Bank overdrafts are included in current interest-bearing financial liabilities. Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortized cost.
Accounting principles
Financial liabilities and borrowing costs
Fiskars Group classifies its financial liabilities in the following categories: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (includes derivative liabilities) and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. A financial liability is initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost or, in the case of the issued sustainability linked bond, valued using the effective interest rate method. Fair value hedges in the amount of EUR 60 million have been entered into to hedge the fair value of the issued bond. To the extent the fair value of the bond is hedged, the carrying amount is adjusted by the change in fair value. Derivative liabilities are measured at fair value. Financial liabilities are classified as non-current or current. The latter group comprises all those financial liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period. The Group removes a financial liability (or a part of it) from its balance sheet only when it is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Arrangement fees related to loans and loan commitments are amortized over the expected loan term. Georg Jensen A/S had an outstanding bond with a nominal amount of EUR 40 million. The bond was redeemed early on the 26 October 2023 in its entirety. In 2023, a redemption premium of EUR 1.1 million, interest expense of EUR 0.9 million and make-whole interest in the amount of EUR 1.3 million were paid in connection with the early redemption.
Accounting principles
Fiskars Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, Fiskars Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of future unpaid lease payments. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group, and payments of penalties
for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date as typically the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily available. Subsequently lease liability is measured using the effective interest rate method, and the carrying amount of lease liability is increased with the interest on the lease liability, reduced with the amount of lease payments made, and adjusted to reflect any reassessments or lease modifications made. The carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
Accounting principles
Derivatives and hedge accounting
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized at fair value through profit and loss. The Group does not apply hedge accounting on foreign exchange derivatives. Foreign exchange derivatives are initially valued at cost and subsequently at fair value determined at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of derivatives is based on prevailing market rates or rates derived from the prevailing market rates at the end of the reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). Fair value changes are recognized in financial itemsAccounting principles
Fiskars Group reports net sales for three geographical areas: Europe, Americas, and Asia-Pacific. In the Americas the Fiskars branded products' distribution, logistics and consumer preferences are managed centrally for the business units. In Europe and Asia-Pacific, the markets and distribution are more diversified, however, from the customer point of view the business units operate in a common environment.
Accounting principles
Fiskars Group's operations have been divided into cash-generating units (CGU) that are similar to the primary reporting segments. The carrying amounts of the assets relating to these CGUs are reviewed for impairment indicators annually at the end of the reporting period. The recoverable amounts of the following assets are also estimated annually irrespective whether there is any indication for impairment: goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and unfinished intangible assets.
To determine a potential impairment the carrying amount of the asset, or the carrying amounts of the CGU\u2019s net assets are compared against the recoverable amount of that asset or CGU. The recoverable amount is the higher of the present value of the future cash flows (value in use) and the fair value less costs to sell. An impairment loss is recognized for an asset when its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. An impairment loss previously recognized for items of property, plant, and equipment as well as for intangible assets other than
goodwill is reversed subsequently only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset\u2019s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset\u2019s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortization or depreciation, if no impairment loss had been recognized for the asset in prior years. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed.
Goodwill impairment test in cash-generating units
Goodwill is not amortized but is tested at least annually for impairment. Goodwill has been allocated to cash-generating units as at December 31, 2024 and 2023 as follows:
EUR million | 2024 | 2023 |
Vita | 223.9 | 217.6 |
Fiskars | 1.9 | 2.5 |
Total | 225.9 | 220.1 |
The primary reporting segments, which form the CGUs, are Vita and Fiskars. The recoverable amounts from CGUs are determined with value in use method, using five-year discounted cash flow projections, based on strategic plans approved by management for years 2025\u20132027, and after this cash flows are estimated for two year period before calculating the terminal value. Cash flows for the period extending over the five year planning period are calculated using the terminal value method. The discount rate is the weighted average post-tax cost of capital (WACC) as defined by Fiskars Group. The components of the WACC are risk-free rate, market risk premium, company-specific risk premium, industry specific equity beta, cost of debt and debt to equity ratio. WACC components have been updated to present the
current market conditions. As a result of the annual impairment tests, no impairment was recognized on goodwill in 2024, or in 2023.
Fiskars Group has ten trademarks whose aggregate carrying amount is EUR 285.0 million (2023: 287.2). Since the benefits from trademarks are indefinite, they are not amortized but are tested at least annually for impairment using a royalty relief method. An exception for this principle is trademark Hackman for which amortization has begun in 2017 (amortization period 20 years). Cash flows attributable to trademarks are derived by identifying revenues from sales of products belonging to each trademark. The value in use of trademarks is determined on a discounted cash flow method basis, derived from five-year cash flow projections, based on strategic plans approved by the management. Cash flows for the period extending over the planning period are calculated using the terminal value method. Georg Jensen trademark which was acquired during 2023 was included in impairment testing for the first time in 2024. As a result of the annual impairment tests, no impairment was recognized on trademarks in 2024, or in 2023.
Key parameters applied in impairment testing
2024 | 2023 | |||
% | Goodwill | Trademarks1 | Goodwill | Trademarks1 |
Increase in net sales on average | 2.6 | 5.7 | 6.1 | 4.1 |
Steady growth rate in projecting terminal value | 1.0 | 1.0 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
Discount rate, pre-tax, average | 7.1 | 8.7 | 7.7 | 9.5 |
1Used one percentage point higher risk premium than in goodwill testing
Sensitivity analyses
Sensitivity analyses of goodwill have been carried out for the valuation of each CGU by making downside scenarios for key parameters. The management views that no reasonably possible change in any of the key parameters would lead to impairment as the recoverable amounts exceed the carrying amounts. The recoverable amount exceeds the carrying amounts after changes in the key parametres.
Sensitivity analyses of trademarks have been carried out for the valuation of each trademark by making downside scenarios for key parameters. Certain trademarks show sensitivity to changes in specific assumptions. Iittala is sensitive to changes in the WACC used, terminal growth rate and royalty rate used. Waterford is sensitive to changes in WACC and royalty rate used and Gingher is sensitive to a change in royalty rate.
Accounting principles
Fair value categories
Hierarchy level 1 includes financial assets and liabilities that are publicly quoted in an active market. This category includes listed financial instruments. Level 2 includes financial assets and liabilities measured using directly observable market inputs. Other than publicly quoted interest-bearing debts and derivatives fall within this category. Level 3 includes financial assets and liabilities measured using non-market observable inputs. The asset classes in this category are unlisted equity investments and funds.
Loans from credit institutions are valued at amortized cost. Issued bonds are valued using effective interest rate method. The fair values of loans from credit institutions have been calculated by discounting the cash flow of the debt by the market rate at the end of reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). The fair value of the bond is calculated based on the market quotations at the end of the reporting period (level 1).
The sustainability linked bond issued 16 November 2023 is unsecured and carries a yearly coupon of 5,125%. The coupon is subject to sustainability performance targets pertaining to Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions reduction by 50% by year-end 2026 versus 2017, and to 60% of the suppliers by spend of the Group having science-based emission reduction targets by year-end 2024. The step-up margin equals 0,375% p.a. for the last interest period if the first target is not met, and 0,125% p.a. for the last three interest periods if the second target is not met. The principal amount of the bond equals EUR 200 million, and the maturity of the bond is 16 November 2028.
In 2024, Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions (KPI 1) increased by 4% compared to 2023 and decreased by 54% compared to the base year 2017.
Testing date in respect of KPI 1 is year-end 2026 and therefore there is no impact from the first target on the bond characteristics at the end of 2024. At the end of 2024, 64% of Fiskars Group\u2019s suppliers by spend covering purchased goods and services had set science-based targets (KPI 2). Fiskars has now achieved the second KPI target and therefore confirms that there is no impact from the second target on the bond characteristics. Verification has been performed by an external and independent reviewer as part of this report. For more information on the KPIs and definitions, please refer to Fiskars Group\u2019s Sustainability-linked bond framework, which is available on the Company\u2019s website.

Acquired or established subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date control commences until the date that control ceases.
Subsidiaries are consolidated using the acquisition method. Inter-company transactions, profit distribution, receivables, payables and unrealized gains between group companies are eliminated
in consolidation. The profit or loss for the period attributable to the owners of the parent company and non-controlling interest is presented in the Consolidated Income Statement and the total comprehensive income for the financial year attributable to the owners of the parent company and non-controlling interest is presented in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

At the moment, there are no investments in associates with significant influence in the Fiskars Group.
Translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Fiskars Group\u2019s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (\u2018the functional currency\u2019). These consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is the Group's presentation currency. In the consolidated financial statements income statements, statements of comprehensive income and cash flows of foreign subsidiaries are
translated into the Group's presentation currency at the average exchange rates for the period. Balance sheet items are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. The resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented under cumulative translation differences in equity. The effective portions of the gains or losses on those financial instruments hedging net investments in foreign operations are recognized similarly. When the group disposes of all, or part of that subsidiary, the translation differences accumulated in equity are transferred to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
Transactions in foreign currencies
Foreign currency transactions are translated using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Exchange differences arising from translation are recognized in the income statement and presented under financial items, except for exchange rate differences related to trade receivables and trade payables that are presented within operating profit. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction, except for those items carried at fair value that are translated using rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined.

1.5\tUse of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the management to make judgments and assumptions that affect the recognition and measurement of financial statement items. These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other justified assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the end of the reporting period. These estimates form the basis for judgments of the items in the financial statements. Development of markets and general economic situation may affect the variables underlying the estimates and actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. Significant accounting policies applied, and critical accounting estimates and judgments are described adjacent to each note.

Accounting principles
Fiskars Group's organizational structure features two Business Areas (BA): Vita and Fiskars. In addition, Fiskars Group reports net sales for three geographical areas: Europe, Americas and Asia-Pacific.
The performance of the operating segments is reviewed regularly by the chief operating decision-maker, Fiskars Group\u2019s Board of Directors, to assess performance and to decide on allocation of resources. The operating segments, Vita, Fiskars and Other are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The performance of the segments is reviewed based on segments\u2019 operating profit (EBIT). The accounting principles of the segments are the same as those used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Goodwill
Goodwill represents the Group\u2019s share of difference between the cost of the acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities acquired, measured at the acquisition date. Goodwill is stated at historical cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually. For this purpose goodwill has been allocated to cash-generating units (CGU). The recoverable amount of the unit is compared annually or more often if there are indications of impairment, with its carrying amount to determine potential impairment.
Research and development costs
Research and development costs are expensed as they are incurred, except for those development costs that are capitalized if the criteria in IAS 38 are met. Capitalized development costs consisting of mainly direct labor costs and external services are recognized as intangible assets. In 2024, research and development expenses amounted to EUR 18.8 million (2023: 19.8).
Intangible assets not yet available for use are tested annually for impairment. Subsequently capitalized development costs are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. They are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, from 3 to 6 years.
Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets include among other patents, capitalized development costs, software, as well as trademarks and customer relationships acquired in business combinations. Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment. Intangible assets in this class are amortized on a straight-line basis over their known or expected useful lives. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at the end of reporting period, and if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Software\t3\u201310 years
Customer relationships\t5\u201315 years
Other\t3\u201310 years
Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life such as trademarks or brand names acquired in business combinations are not amortized but they are tested at least annually for impairment.
Depreciation is charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at each financial year-end and, if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Buildings\t20\u201340 years
Machinery and equipment\t3\u201310 years
Land and water\tNo depreciation
Gains and losses on sales and disposals of property, plant, and equipment are presented in other operating income and other operating expenses.
Right-of-use assets
Fiskars Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, including the initial measurement of lease liabilities, any initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received.
Subsequently right-of-use asset is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term, generally as follows:
Real estate\t3\u201315 years
Other assets\t3\u20135 years
Accounting principles
The properties that are not used in the Group\u2019s operations or which are held to earn rental income or increase in value are classified as investment property. These properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Investment properties are depreciated over 20\u201340 years on a straight-line basis. Land is not depreciated.

4.4\tEmployee defined benefit obligations
Accounting principles
Group companies have various pension plans in accordance with local conditions and practices in the countries in which they operate. The plans are classified as either defined contribution plans or defined benefit plans. Under a defined contribution plan the group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. If the entity does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits in question, the Group will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions. All other plans not meeting the above criteria are classified as defined benefit plans. Most of the plans that group companies have are classified as defined contribution plans and related contributions are charged to the income statement in the year in which the payment obligation has arisen.
The costs for defined benefit pension plans are calculated and recognized under the terms of the plan based on actuarial calculations. Pension costs are recognized as expenses over the employees\u2019 service period. The pension obligation is measured as the present value of the estimated future contributions deducted by the fair value of plan assets at the end of the reporting period. Changes in the estimates in the actuarial calculations may influence the reported pension obligations and
pension costs. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI).
Most of Fiskars Group\u2019s pension plans are defined contribution plans. Vita business area has defined benefit plans in Indonesia, Japan and Slovenia. The defined benefit plans in the U.S., UK and Germany are closed plans, and future pay increases will not impact the valuation.

Long-term incentive plans, settled in shares and/or cash
In December 2020, the Board of Directors approved the establishment of two share-based Long-term Incentive Plans. The plan includes a Performance Share Plan and a Restricted Share Plan.
The Performance Share Plan consists of annually commencing individual performance share plans, each with a three-year performance period, followed by the payment of the potential share reward. The Board of Directors will decide separately the commencement of each individual plan and their participants, the minimum, target and maximum rewards for each participant, as well as the performance criteria and related targets. The amount of the reward paid depends on the achievement of the set targets. No reward will be paid if the targets are not met. For the second 2022\u20132024 performance period the performance targets relate to
the company's absolute total shareholder return and EBIT. For the third 2023\u20132025 and forth 2024\u20132026 performance periods, the performance targets relate to the company's absolute total shareholder return, EBIT and advancement of circular products and services.
The Restricted Share Plan consists of annually commencing individual restricted share plans. The Board of Directors will decide separately the commencement of each individual plan. Each plan comprises an overall three-year retention period during which the Company may grant fixed share rewards to individually selected key employees. The company may choose to use a shorter retention period on a case by case basis within this overall three-year period. The granted share rewards will be paid after the retention period. The current commenced plans are for years 2022\u20132024, 2023\u20132025 and 2024\u20132026.
If the targets are reached, the rewards for both plans will be paid in the company\u2019s shares, after the deduction of the proportion that is required for covering taxes and tax-related costs due on the basis of the reward. However, the company may decide to pay the reward fully in cash. As a starting point, shares to be awarded to key employees based on Performance Share Plan or Restricted Share Plan will
be paid as existing shares of the company and thus the plans are not expected to have a diluting effect on the ownership of the company\u2019s shareholders. In February 2024, the Board of Directors approved the launch of new periods for the years 2024\u20132026 within the Performance Share Plan and Restricted Share Plan, which form a part of Fiskars remuneration program for its key employees. The aim of the plans is to support the implementation of the company\u2019s strategy and drive profitable growth and to align the objectives of key employees with the shareholders to increase the value of the company.

Employee Share Savings Plan, \"MyFiskars\", settled in shares and/or cash
In March 2023, the Board of Directors approved the establishment of an Employee Share Savings Plan, \"MyFiskars\", for the employees of Fiskars Group. The aim of MyFiskars is to invite employees to acquire and own Fiskars shares, and it is intended to create a culture of ownership as well as to further strenghten employees' long-term committment to the company.
MyFiskars consists of annually commencing plan periods, each one comprising a 12-month savings period and a holding period. The Board of Directors will decide separately the commencement of each individual plan. MyFiskars is offered to permanent employees who have been employed at Fiskars Group for 1 month or longer before the enrollment period. The employees are offered the chance to voluntarily save a proportion of their monthly salary
and to invest this in Fiskars shares. The savings will be used to acquire Fiskars shares for the participating employees quarterly after the publication dates of the company\u2019s interim reports. As a reward for their commitment, Fiskars Group grants the participating employees a gross reward of one free matching share for every two savings shares acquired. The matching shares will be granted if the participating employee remains employed at Fiskars Group at the end of the plan period and if they have kept the shares they have acquired with their savings until this date.
The potential reward will be settled in shares, or partly in shares and partly in cash, after the end of the holding period. The cash proportion is intended for covering taxes and tax-related costs arising from the reward in countries where the employer has the obligation to withhold taxes. Matching shares will be freely transferable after their registration in the
participant\u2019s book-entry account. Savings shares and matching shares are regular Fiskars shares and entitle the participants to dividends. The participants may choose whether they want to receive dividends in cash or invest the dividends in additional shares on the next acquisition date. The shares purchased with dividends will have an equal right to matching shares as the shares purchased with savings.
The first savings period commenced on 1 July 2023 and ended on 30 June 2024. The holding period began at the first acquisition of savings shares and ends on 30 June 2026. The second Employee Share Savings Plan was approved by the Board of Directors in March 2024. The first savings period commenced on 1 July 2024 and ends on 30 June 2025. The holding period began at the first acquisition of savings shares and ends on 30 June 2027.

Ownership Plan 2023 for the company's management, settled in shares and/or cash
In February 2023 the Board of Directors resolved to launch an Ownership Plan 2023 directed to the company\u2019s President and CEO, the Fiskars Group Leadership Team and certain key employees determined by the Board. The aim is to align the objectives of the shareholders and the management for increasing the value of the company in the long-term, to commit the target group to the company and to offer a competitive incentive program.
In the Plan, the target group is given an opportunity to receive free matching shares for their personal investment in Fiskars shares. The rewards based on the Plan will be paid after the end of the three-year matching period in 2026.
The prerequisite for receiving the matching shares is that the participant acquires shares within the limits set by the Board. If the participant\u2019s share acquisition prerequisite has been fulfilled and the employment or service relationship with a group company has not terminated by the payment date, the participant will receive reward shares gratuitously according to the matching ratio decided by the Board.
A total of 156,401 treasury shares were subscribed for in the directed share issue, which ended on March 3, 2023. Matching shares will be paid in new shares or treasury shares held by the company, as decided later by the Board.

2.7\tIncome taxes
Accounting principles
The Group\u2019s tax expense comprises current and deferred taxes. The current tax charge is calculated using the tax rate enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets are accounted for temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. A deferred tax liability is recorded to its full amount on taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, unutilized tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit or taxable temporary differences will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unutilized tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are assessed for realizability at the end of each reporting period. If it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow deferred tax asset utilization, carrying amount of deferred tax asset is reduced. Correspondingly, if it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available, reduction to deferred tax asset value is reversed.

Application of OECD Pillar Two model rules
Fiskars Group is within the scope of the OECD Pillar Two model rules. The Pillar Two legislation has been enacted in Finland, which is Fiskars Group's ultimate parent company's jurisdiction of residence, as well as in various other jurisdictions where Fiskars Group operates. The legislation became effective for the financial years starting 1 January 2024 or thereafter.
The Group applies the IAS 12 exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes and accounts for top-up tax as a current tax when it is incurred.
The Group has performed an assessment of its potential exposure to Pillar Two income taxes based on 2024 financial information for the constituent entities in the Group. Based on the assessment, the transitional safe harbour relief is applicable for all jurisdictions. Therefore, the Group has not accounted for any Pillar Two top-up taxes.
The Group is continuing to assess the impact of the Pillar Two legislation on its future financial performance.

The basic earnings per share is the annual profit for the period attributable to equity holders of the parent company divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Fiskars Group does not have any current share option programs or other diluting financial instruments, so the diluted earnings per share is the same as basic.

3.1\tIntangible assets
Accounting principles
An intangible asset is initially recognized in the balance sheet at cost if the cost can be measured reliably and it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the group. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at each financial year-end and, if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. Those borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the Group\u2019s share of difference between the cost of the acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities acquired, measured at the acquisition date. Goodwill is stated at historical cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually. For this purpose goodwill has been allocated to cash-generating units (CGU). The recoverable amount of the unit is compared annually or more often if there are indications of impairment, with its carrying amount to determine potential impairment.
Research and development costs
Research and development costs are expensed as they are incurred, except for those development costs that are capitalized if the criteria in IAS 38 are met. Capitalized development costs consisting of mainly direct labor costs and external services are recognized as intangible assets. In 2024, research and development expenses amounted to EUR 18.8 million (2023: 19.8).
Intangible assets not yet available for use are tested annually for impairment. Subsequently capitalized development costs are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. They are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, from 3 to 6 years.
Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets include among other patents, capitalized development costs, software, as well as trademarks and customer relationships acquired in business combinations. Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment. Intangible assets in this class are amortized on a straight-line basis over their known or expected useful lives. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at the end of reporting period, and if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Software\t3\u201310 years
Customer relationships\t5\u201315 years
Other\t3\u201310 years
Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life such as trademarks or brand names acquired in business combinations are not amortized but they are tested at least annually for impairment.

Accounting principles
Fiskars Group's operations have been divided into cash-generating units (CGU) that are similar to the primary reporting segments. The carrying amounts of the assets relating to these CGUs are reviewed for impairment indicators annually at the end of the reporting period. The recoverable amounts of the following assets are also estimated annually irrespective whether there is any indication for impairment: goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and unfinished intangible assets.
To determine a potential impairment the carrying amount of the asset, or the carrying amounts of the CGU\u2019s net assets are compared against the recoverable amount of that asset or CGU. The recoverable amount is the higher of the present value of the future cash flows (value in use) and the fair value less costs to sell. An impairment loss is recognized for an asset when its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. An impairment loss previously recognized for items of property, plant, and equipment as well as for intangible assets other than
goodwill is reversed subsequently only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset\u2019s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset\u2019s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortization or depreciation, if no impairment loss had been recognized for the asset in prior years. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed.
Goodwill impairment test in cash-generating units
Goodwill is not amortized but is tested at least annually for impairment. Goodwill has been allocated to cash-generating units as at December 31, 2024 and 2023 as follows:
EUR million | 2024 | 2023 |
Vita | 223.9 | 217.6 |
Fiskars | 1.9 | 2.5 |
Total | 225.9 | 220.1 |
The primary reporting segments, which form the CGUs, are Vita and Fiskars. The recoverable amounts from CGUs are determined with value in use method, using five-year discounted cash flow projections, based on strategic plans approved by management for years 2025\u20132027, and after this cash flows are estimated for two year period before calculating the terminal value. Cash flows for the period extending over the five year planning period are calculated using the terminal value method. The discount rate is the weighted average post-tax cost of capital (WACC) as defined by Fiskars Group. The components of the WACC are risk-free rate, market risk premium, company-specific risk premium, industry specific equity beta, cost of debt and debt to equity ratio. WACC components have been updated to present the
current market conditions. As a result of the annual impairment tests, no impairment was recognized on goodwill in 2024, or in 2023.
Fiskars Group has ten trademarks whose aggregate carrying amount is EUR 285.0 million (2023: 287.2). Since the benefits from trademarks are indefinite, they are not amortized but are tested at least annually for impairment using a royalty relief method. An exception for this principle is trademark Hackman for which amortization has begun in 2017 (amortization period 20 years). Cash flows attributable to trademarks are derived by identifying revenues from sales of products belonging to each trademark. The value in use of trademarks is determined on a discounted cash flow method basis, derived from five-year cash flow projections, based on strategic plans approved by the management. Cash flows for the period extending over the planning period are calculated using the terminal value method. Georg Jensen trademark which was acquired during 2023 was included in impairment testing for the first time in 2024. As a result of the annual impairment tests, no impairment was recognized on trademarks in 2024, or in 2023.

Sensitivity analyses
Sensitivity analyses of goodwill have been carried out for the valuation of each CGU by making downside scenarios for key parameters. The management views that no reasonably possible change in any of the key parameters would lead to impairment as the recoverable amounts exceed the carrying amounts. The recoverable amount exceeds the carrying amounts after changes in the key parametres.
Sensitivity analyses of trademarks have been carried out for the valuation of each trademark by making downside scenarios for key parameters. Certain trademarks show sensitivity to changes in specific assumptions. Iittala is sensitive to changes in the WACC used, terminal growth rate and royalty rate used. Waterford is sensitive to changes in WACC and royalty rate used and Gingher is sensitive to a change in royalty rate.

Since the benefits from trademarks are indefinite, they are not amortized but are tested at least annually for impairment using a royalty relief method. An exception for this principle is trademark Hackman for which amortization has begun in 2017 (amortization period 20 years). Cash flows attributable to trademarks are derived by identifying revenues from sales of products belonging to each trademark. The value in use of trademarks is determined on a discounted cash flow method basis, derived from five-year cash flow projections, based on strategic plans approved by the management. Cash flows for the period extending over the planning period are calculated using the terminal value method. Georg Jensen trademark which was acquired during 2023 was included in impairment testing for the first time in 2024. As a result of the annual impairment tests, no impairment was recognized on trademarks in 2024, or in 2023.

Sensitivity analyses
Sensitivity analyses of goodwill have been carried out for the valuation of each CGU by making downside scenarios for key parameters. The management views that no reasonably possible change in any of the key parameters would lead to impairment as the recoverable amounts exceed the carrying amounts. The recoverable amount exceeds the carrying amounts after changes in the key parametres.
Sensitivity analyses of trademarks have been carried out for the valuation of each trademark by making downside scenarios for key parameters. Certain trademarks show sensitivity to changes in specific assumptions. Iittala is sensitive to changes in the WACC used, terminal growth rate and royalty rate used. Waterford is sensitive to changes in WACC and royalty rate used and Gingher is sensitive to a change in royalty rate.
Accounting principles
An intangible asset is initially recognized in the balance sheet at cost if the cost can be measured reliably and it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the group. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at each financial year-end and, if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. Those borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the Group\u2019s share of difference between the cost of the acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities acquired, measured at the acquisition date. Goodwill is stated at historical cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually. For this purpose goodwill has been allocated to cash-generating units (CGU). The recoverable amount of the unit is compared annually or more often if there are indications of impairment, with its carrying amount to determine potential impairment.
Research and development costs
Research and development costs are expensed as they are incurred, except for those development costs that are capitalized if the criteria in IAS 38 are met. Capitalized development costs consisting of mainly direct labor costs and external services are recognized as intangible assets. In 2024, research and development expenses amounted to EUR 18.8 million (2023: 19.8).
Intangible assets not yet available for use are tested annually for impairment. Subsequently capitalized development costs are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. They are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, from 3 to 6 years.
Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets include among other patents, capitalized development costs, software, as well as trademarks and customer relationships acquired in business combinations. Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment. Intangible assets in this class are amortized on a straight-line basis over their known or expected useful lives. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at the end of reporting period, and if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Software\t3\u201310 years
Customer relationships\t5\u201315 years
Other\t3\u201310 years
Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life such as trademarks or brand names acquired in business combinations are not amortized but they are tested at least annually for impairment.

Gains and losses on sales and disposals of property, plant, and equipment are presented in other operating income and other operating expenses.
Right-of-use assets
Fiskars Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, including the initial measurement of lease liabilities, any initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received.
Subsequently right-of-use asset is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term, generally as follows:
Real estate\t3\u201315 years
Other assets\t3\u20135 years
Accounting principles
The properties that are not used in the Group\u2019s operations or which are held to earn rental income or increase in value are classified as investment property. These properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Investment properties are depreciated over 20\u201340 years on a straight-line basis. Land is not depreciated.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the Group\u2019s share of difference between the cost of the acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities acquired, measured at the acquisition date. Goodwill is stated at historical cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually.

Accounting principles
Fiskars Group's operations have been divided into cash-generating units (CGU) that are similar to the primary reporting segments. The carrying amounts of the assets relating to these CGUs are reviewed for impairment indicators annually at the end of the reporting period. The recoverable amounts of the following assets are also estimated annually irrespective whether there is any indication for impairment: goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and unfinished intangible assets.
To determine a potential impairment the carrying amount of the asset, or the carrying amounts of the CGU\u2019s net assets are compared against the recoverable amount of that asset or CGU. The recoverable amount is the higher of the present value of the future cash flows (value in use) and the fair value less costs to sell. An impairment loss is recognized for an asset when its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. An impairment loss previously recognized for items of property, plant, and equipment as well as for intangible assets other than
goodwill is reversed subsequently only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset\u2019s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset\u2019s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortization or depreciation, if no impairment loss had been recognized for the asset in prior years. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed.
Goodwill impairment test in cash-generating units
Goodwill is not amortized but is tested at least annually for impairment. Goodwill has been allocated to cash-generating units as at December 31, 2024 and 2023 as follows:
EUR million | 2024 | 2023 |
Vita | 223.9 | 217.6 |
Fiskars | 1.9 | 2.5 |
Total | 225.9 | 220.1 |
The primary reporting segments, which form the CGUs, are Vita and Fiskars. The recoverable amounts from CGUs are determined with value in use method, using five-year discounted cash flow projections, based on strategic plans approved by management for years 2025\u20132027, and after this cash flows are estimated for two year period before calculating the terminal value. Cash flows for the period extending over the five year planning period are calculated using the terminal value method. The discount rate is the weighted average post-tax cost of capital (WACC) as defined by Fiskars Group. The components of the WACC are risk-free rate, market risk premium, company-specific risk premium, industry specific equity beta, cost of debt and debt to equity ratio. WACC components have been updated to present the
current market conditions. As a result of the annual impairment tests, no impairment was recognized on goodwill in 2024, or in 2023.
Fiskars Group has ten trademarks whose aggregate carrying amount is EUR 285.0 million (2023: 287.2). Since the benefits from trademarks are indefinite, they are not amortized but are tested at least annually for impairment using a royalty relief method. An exception for this principle is trademark Hackman for which amortization has begun in 2017 (amortization period 20 years).

Accounting principles
Trade receivables are measured at amortized cost. According to the simplified impairment model under IFRS 9, an allowance amounting to lifetime expected credit losses is recognized at first reporting date. To measure the lifetime expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on aging categories. An allowance for doubtful receivables is measured based on historical loss rates adjusted by forward looking estimates and individual assessment. The inputs used in the model are updated on a regular basis. Impairment is recognized as an expense in Other operating expenses. If an amount previously recognized to Consolidated Income Statement is subsequently settled, it is recognized as a reduction to Other operating expenses.
3.2\tProperty, plant and equipment
Accounting principles
Property, plant, and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses, if applicable. Those borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.
Depreciation is charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at each financial year-end and, if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Buildings\t20\u201340 years
Machinery and equipment\t3\u201310 years
Land and water\tNo depreciation
Gains and losses on sales and disposals of property, plant, and equipment are presented in other operating income and other operating expenses.

Accounting principles
Property, plant, and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses, if applicable. Those borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.
Depreciation is charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Residual values and expected useful lives are reassessed at least at each financial year-end and, if necessary, are adjusted to reflect changes in the expected future economic benefits. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Buildings\t20\u201340 years
Machinery and equipment\t3\u201310 years
Land and water\tNo depreciation
Gains and losses on sales and disposals of property, plant, and equipment are presented in other operating income and other operating expenses.
3.3\tRight-of-use assets
Accounting principles
Fiskars Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Right-of-use assets
Fiskars Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, including the initial measurement of lease liabilities, any initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received.
Subsequently right-of-use asset is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term, generally as follows:
Real estate\t3\u201315 years
Other assets\t3\u20135 years
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option. It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Fiskars Group has lease contracts for real estate, machinery, vehicles and other equipment used in its operations. Real estate leases generally have lease terms between 3 and 15 years, while other assets generally have lease terms between 3 and 5 years. Several lease contracts include extension and termination options and variable lease payments. Lease liabilities are described in Note 5.5 Lease liabilities.

Accounting principles

That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, Fiskars Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of future unpaid lease payments. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group, and payments of penalties
for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date as typically the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily available. Subsequently lease liability is measured using the effective interest rate method, and the carrying amount of lease liability is increased with the interest on the lease liability, reduced with the amount of lease payments made, and adjusted to reflect any reassessments or lease modifications made. The carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
Fiskars Group has lease contracts for various items of real estate, machinery, vehicles and other equipment used in its operations. Right-of-use assets are presented in Note 3.3 Right-of-use assets.

It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

3.4\tBiological assets
Accounting principles
Biological assets are measured at their fair value less costs to sell them. Biological assets consist of growing stock of Group\u2019s forest assets in Finland. The change in fair value resulting from both growth and change in the market value of standing timber is presented as a separate line item in the Consolidated Income Statement after operating profit (EBIT). The revenue from the sale of standing timber is presented in the Consolidated Income Statement within the operating profit.
There are no existing active markets for forest assets. Therefore, the biological asset valuation is made by using the discounted future cash flows. Cash flows are based on forest management plan taking into account forestry costs and harvesting incomes from one growth cycle. For valuing harvesting incomes, Fiskars applies a three-year rolling average price of standing timber, based on the statistics provided by the Natural Resources Institute Finland, adjusted with company specific price components.
The fair value measurements of biological assets are categorized within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

3.5\tInvestment property
Accounting principles
The properties that are not used in the Group\u2019s operations or which are held to earn rental income or increase in value are classified as investment property. These properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Investment properties are depreciated over 20\u201340 years on a straight-line basis. Land is not depreciated.

Investment Property comprises the parent company's buildings and zoned and unbuilt lots for detached houses in Fiskars Village, Finland.
Fair value
Properties in Fiskars Village are unique in their cultural and historical values. Therefore it is not possible to determine a comparable market value on those properties. The book value of these properties, located in Finland, were EUR 6.3 million in 2024 (2023: 5.3).

4.1\tInventories
Accounting principles
Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in first-out (FIFO) method. The cost of finished goods and work-in-progress comprise direct purchase and manufacturing costs, other direct costs and a proportion of the related production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Net realizable value is the estimated amount that can be realized from the sale in normal course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are presented net of write-down recognized for obsolete and slow-moving inventories.

4.2\tTrade and other receivables
Accounting principles
Trade receivables are measured at amortized cost. According to the simplified impairment model under IFRS 9, an allowance amounting to lifetime expected credit losses is recognized at first reporting date. To measure the lifetime expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on aging categories. An allowance for doubtful receivables is measured based on historical loss rates adjusted by forward looking estimates and individual assessment. The inputs used in the model are updated on a regular basis. Impairment is recognized as an expense in Other operating expenses. If an amount previously recognized to Consolidated Income Statement is subsequently settled, it is recognized as a reduction to Other operating expenses.

Supplier Financing Arrangements
Fiskars Group has a supplier financing arrangement in place with a partner bank. Under the arrangement, the suppliers participating in the program may receive early payment of their invoices from the bank, who agrees to pay amounts due to the suppliers in respect of invoices owed by Fiskars Group. Fiskars Group subsequently repays the bank on the original invoice date. The principal purpose of this arrangement is to improve the working capital management for Fiskars Group and provide suppliers with an option to enhance their liquidity through early payment. Fiskars Group includes the amounts subject to the arrangement within trade payables as the nature and function of these payables remains the same as those of other trade payables.

The supplier financing arrangement allows Fiskars Group to centralise payments of trade payables to the bank rather than paying the current suppliers individually. From Fiskars Group perspective, the arrangement does not significantly extend payment terms beyond the normal terms agreed with other suppliers that are not participating. However, due to the arrangement, cash outflows are more predictable.
5.3\tFinancial assets
Accounting principles
Financial assets
Fiskars Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, and financial assets at amortised cost. Financial assets are classified at initial recognition based on their purpose of use. For assets not at fair value through profit or loss, the directly attributable transaction costs are included in the original costs of the financial assets. All purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized or derecognized using trade date accounting. The Group derecognizes financial assets when it has lost its right to receive the cash flows or when it has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards to an external party. Fair value categories of financial instruments are explained in Note 5.4.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and via other comprehensive income
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets that are held for trading or are designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition (the fair value option). In Fiskars Group this category comprises investments in listed securities,
and derivative instruments on which hedge accounting is not applied, as well as interest rate swaps hedging fair value.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value both at initial recognition and subsequently. The fair values of the listed securities are based on quoted rates at the end of the reporting period, and both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the income statement under financial items. The fair value measurement principles of derivative instruments are described in Note 5.6.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include listed shares. These assets are measured at fair value at initial recognition and subsequently. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets at amortised cost are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are not held for trading or designated as available for sale upon initial recognition. This category comprises trade receivables and other receivables. It also includes deposits to guarantee leases and other similar items presented under
Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Trade and other receivables are described in more detail in Note 4.2.
Loans and other receivables are measured at amortized cost. The allowance for expected credit losses is based on the risks of the individual items. Carrying amounts of receivables are adjusted to their probable value as a result of this assessment. Loans and receivables are included in current or non-current assets based on their term to maturity. Amounts expected to be recovered or settled in no more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are included in current assets.
Cash and cash equivalents
The balance sheet item Cash and cash equivalents includes cash, i.e. cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents comprise highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. The items included in cash equivalents have original maturities of maximum three months from the date of acquisition. Bank overdrafts are included in current interest-bearing financial liabilities. Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortized cost.

Accounting principles
Financial liabilities and borrowing costs
Fiskars Group classifies its financial liabilities in the following categories: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (includes derivative liabilities) and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. A financial liability is initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost or, in the case of the issued sustainability linked bond, valued using the effective interest rate method. Fair value hedges in the amount of EUR 60 million have been entered into to hedge the fair value of the issued bond. To the extent the fair value of the bond is hedged, the carrying amount is adjusted by the change in fair value. Derivative liabilities are measured at fair value. Financial liabilities are classified as non-current or current. The latter group comprises all those financial liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period. The Group removes a financial liability (or a part of it) from its balance sheet only when it is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Arrangement fees related to loans and loan commitments are amortized over the expected loan term. Georg Jensen A/S had an outstanding bond with a nominal amount of EUR 40 million. The bond was redeemed early on the 26 October 2023 in its entirety. In 2023, a redemption premium of EUR 1.1 million, interest expense of EUR 0.9 million and make-whole interest in the amount of EUR 1.3 million were paid in connection with the early redemption.

EUR million | Fair value | Carrying amount | Fair value | Carrying amount |
Loans from credit institutions | 130.7 | 130.0 | 131.0 | 130.2 |

Total, Dec 31 | 338.9 | 331.0 | 336.5 | 330.7 |
Loans from credit institutions are valued at amortized cost. Issued bonds are valued using effective interest rate method. The fair values of loans from credit institutions have been calculated by discounting the cash flow of the debt by the market rate at the end of reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). The fair value of the bond is calculated based on the market quotations at the end of the reporting period (level 1).
The sustainability linked bond issued 16 November 2023 is unsecured and carries a yearly coupon of 5,125%. The coupon is subject to sustainability performance targets pertaining to Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions reduction by 50% by year-end 2026 versus 2017, and to 60% of the suppliers by spend of the Group having science-based emission reduction targets by year-end 2024. The step-up margin equals 0,375% p.a. for the last interest period if the first target is not met, and 0,125% p.a. for the last three interest periods if the second target is not met. The principal amount of the bond equals EUR 200 million, and the maturity of the bond is 16 November 2028.
In 2024, Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions (KPI 1) increased by 4% compared to 2023 and decreased by 54% compared to the base year 2017.
Testing date in respect of KPI 1 is year-end 2026 and therefore there is no impact from the first target on the bond characteristics at the end of 2024. At the end of 2024, 64% of Fiskars Group\u2019s suppliers by spend covering purchased goods and services had set science-based targets (KPI 2). Fiskars has now achieved the second KPI target and therefore confirms that there is no impact from the second target on the bond characteristics. Verification has been performed by an external and independent reviewer as part of this report. For more information on the KPIs and definitions, please refer to Fiskars Group\u2019s Sustainability-linked bond framework, which is available on the Company\u2019s website.

Maturity of liabilities
As of December 31, 2024 the Group had unused committed credit facilities EUR 250.0 million (2023: 250.0) at its disposal to guarantee its liquidity. The average maturity of the credit limit agreements as of December 31, 2024 was 3 years (2023: 2). Maturities of long term loans are presented in the below table. Agreements concerning credit facilities and long term loans include a covenant for the solidity. The covenant is tested at the end of each quarter until the maturity of the credit facilities and term loans. Breach of covenant requires material deterioration of the solidity from the current, and the Group has no indication that it will have difficulty complying with this covenant. The issued bond does not include financial covenants, but the future coupon payments are linked to achievement of certain sustainability metrics.

Sensitivity analysis of currency exposure
The exchange rate sensitivity analysis in accordance with IFRS 7 indicates how the profit before taxes or consolidated Group equity would be impacted by a 10% depreciation of a currency. The impact of a 10% appreciation of a currency would be approximately the opposite. The analysis of impact on profit includes internal and external foreign currency denominated financial items of the parent company in the selected currencies. Estimated commercial cash flows of the Group companies consist of net purchases and sales in foreign currencies during the subsequent year. Derivatives include transactions to hedge the estimated commercial flows. Other financial items include foreign currency denominated loans, deposits and investments. The selected currencies represent approximately 90% of the commercial net foreign currency flows. The sensitivity analysis on the consolidated Group equity illustrates translation risk related to the foreign currency denominated equity.

Average interest rates and sensitivity analysis of interest expenses
The sensitivity of interest expenses on changes in interest rates has been presented by simulating a permanent one percentage unit rise in interest rates at the end of the reporting year. The Group's net interest bearing debt excluding financial leases as of December 31, 2024 was EUR 346.3 million (2023: 295.8) and the average interest reset period of interest-bearing debt was 22 months (2023: 28). A permanent one percentage point rise in all interest rates would increase the corporation's annual interest costs by EUR 1.3 million (2023: 0.8) assuming no change in the amount of the net debt.
The table below shows the Group's net interest bearing debt excluding leasing liabilities, currency derivatives, average interest rates on loans and interest rate sensitivity by major currencies.

Fair value of financial instruments
Accounting principles
Fair value categories
Hierarchy level 1 includes financial assets and liabilities that are publicly quoted in an active market. This category includes listed financial instruments. Level 2 includes financial assets and liabilities measured using directly observable market inputs. Other than publicly quoted interest-bearing debts and derivatives fall within this category. Level 3 includes financial assets and liabilities measured using non-market observable inputs. The asset classes in this category are unlisted equity investments and funds.

5.5\tLease liabilities
Accounting principles
Fiskars Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, Fiskars Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of future unpaid lease payments. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group, and payments of penalties
for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date as typically the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily available. Subsequently lease liability is measured using the effective interest rate method, and the carrying amount of lease liability is increased with the interest on the lease liability, reduced with the amount of lease payments made, and adjusted to reflect any reassessments or lease modifications made. The carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
Fiskars Group has lease contracts for various items of real estate, machinery, vehicles and other equipment used in its operations. Right-of-use assets are presented in Note 3.3 Right-of-use assets.

5.6\tDerivatives
Accounting principles
Derivatives and hedge accounting
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized at fair value through profit and loss. The Group does not apply hedge accounting on foreign exchange derivatives. Foreign exchange derivatives are initially valued at cost and subsequently at fair value determined at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of derivatives is based on prevailing market rates or rates derived from the prevailing market rates at the end of the reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). Fair value changes are recognized in financial items in profit and loss.
Fiskars Group applies hedge accounting to interest rate swaps (cash flow hedges and fair value hedges). Derivatives on which hedge accounting is applied are initially valued at cost and subsequently at fair value at the end of each reporting period. To the extent the cashflow hedges are effective, the fair value change including deferred tax is recognized in equity through other comprehensive income. Any ineffectiveness is recognised in financial items in profit and loss. Fair value changes of fair value hedges are recognized in financial items in profit and loss. The fair value is based on prevailing market rates or rates derived from the prevailing market rates at the end of the reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2).
Hedge accounting is not applied on commodity derivatives. Fair value changes are recognized in financial items.

Accounting principles
Trade receivables are measured at amortized cost. According to the simplified impairment model under IFRS 9, an allowance amounting to lifetime expected credit losses is recognized at first reporting date. To measure the lifetime expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on aging categories. An allowance for doubtful receivables is measured based on historical loss rates adjusted by forward looking estimates and individual assessment. The inputs used in the model are updated on a regular basis. Impairment is recognized as an expense in Other operating expenses. If an amount previously recognized to Consolidated Income Statement is subsequently settled, it is recognized as a reduction to Other operating expenses.
Accounting principles
Financial assets
Fiskars Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, and financial assets at amortised cost. Financial assets are classified at initial recognition based on their purpose of use. For assets not at fair value through profit or loss, the directly attributable transaction costs are included in the original costs of the financial assets. All purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized or derecognized using trade date accounting. The Group derecognizes financial assets when it has lost its right to receive the cash flows or when it has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards to an external party. Fair value categories of financial instruments are explained in Note 5.4.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and via other comprehensive income
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets that are held for trading or are designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition (the fair value option). In Fiskars Group this category comprises investments in listed securities,
and derivative instruments on which hedge accounting is not applied, as well as interest rate swaps hedging fair value.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value both at initial recognition and subsequently. The fair values of the listed securities are based on quoted rates at the end of the reporting period, and both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the income statement under financial items. The fair value measurement principles of derivative instruments are described in Note 5.6.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include listed shares. These assets are measured at fair value at initial recognition and subsequently. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets at amortised cost are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are not held for trading or designated as available for sale upon initial recognition. This category comprises trade receivables and other receivables. It also includes deposits to guarantee leases and other similar items presented under
Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Trade and other receivables are described in more detail in Note 4.2.
Loans and other receivables are measured at amortized cost. The allowance for expected credit losses is based on the risks of the individual items. Carrying amounts of receivables are adjusted to their probable value as a result of this assessment. Loans and receivables are included in current or non-current assets based on their term to maturity. Amounts expected to be recovered or settled in no more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are included in current assets.
Cash and cash equivalents
The balance sheet item Cash and cash equivalents includes cash, i.e. cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents comprise highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. The items included in cash equivalents have original maturities of maximum three months from the date of acquisition. Bank overdrafts are included in current interest-bearing financial liabilities. Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortized cost.
Accounting principles
Financial liabilities and borrowing costs
Fiskars Group classifies its financial liabilities in the following categories: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (includes derivative liabilities) and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. A financial liability is initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost or, in the case of the issued sustainability linked bond, valued using the effective interest rate method. Fair value hedges in the amount of EUR 60 million have been entered into to hedge the fair value of the issued bond. To the extent the fair value of the bond is hedged, the carrying amount is adjusted by the change in fair value. Derivative liabilities are measured at fair value. Financial liabilities are classified as non-current or current. The latter group comprises all those financial liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period. The Group removes a financial liability (or a part of it) from its balance sheet only when it is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Arrangement fees related to loans and loan commitments are amortized over the expected loan term. Georg Jensen A/S had an outstanding bond with a nominal amount of EUR 40 million. The bond was redeemed early on the 26 October 2023 in its entirety. In 2023, a redemption premium of EUR 1.1 million, interest expense of EUR 0.9 million and make-whole interest in the amount of EUR 1.3 million were paid in connection with the early redemption.
Loans from credit institutions are valued at amortized cost. Issued bonds are valued using effective interest rate method. The fair values of loans from credit institutions have been calculated by discounting the cash flow of the debt by the market rate at the end of reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). The fair value of the bond is calculated based on the market quotations at the end of the reporting period (level 1).
The sustainability linked bond issued 16 November 2023 is unsecured and carries a yearly coupon of 5,125%. The coupon is subject to sustainability performance targets pertaining to Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions reduction by 50% by year-end 2026 versus 2017, and to 60% of the suppliers by spend of the Group having science-based emission reduction targets by year-end 2024. The step-up margin equals 0,375% p.a. for the last interest period if the first target is not met, and 0,125% p.a. for the last three interest periods if the second target is not met. The principal amount of the bond equals EUR 200 million, and the maturity of the bond is 16 November 2028.
In 2024, Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions (KPI 1) increased by 4% compared to 2023 and decreased by 54% compared to the base year 2017.
Testing date in respect of KPI 1 is year-end 2026 and therefore there is no impact from the first target on the bond characteristics at the end of 2024. At the end of 2024, 64% of Fiskars Group\u2019s suppliers by spend covering purchased goods and services had set science-based targets (KPI 2). Fiskars has now achieved the second KPI target and therefore confirms that there is no impact from the second target on the bond characteristics. Verification has been performed by an external and independent reviewer as part of this report.

Accounting principles
Fair value categories
Hierarchy level 1 includes financial assets and liabilities that are publicly quoted in an active market. This category includes listed financial instruments. Level 2 includes financial assets and liabilities measured using directly observable market inputs. Other than publicly quoted interest-bearing debts and derivatives fall within this category. Level 3 includes financial assets and liabilities measured using non-market observable inputs. The asset classes in this category are unlisted equity investments and funds.
Accounting principles
Derivatives and hedge accounting
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized at fair value through profit and loss. The Group does not apply hedge accounting on foreign exchange derivatives. Foreign exchange derivatives are initially valued at cost and subsequently at fair value determined at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of derivatives is based on prevailing market rates or rates derived from the prevailing market rates at the end of the reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). Fair value changes are recognized in financial items ", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DescriptionOfAccountingPolicyForFinancialInstrumentsExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:743700BKTW4EQIVKYY42", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "s9__6__105": { "value": "Accounting principles
Trade receivables are measured at amortized cost. According to the simplified impairment model under IFRS 9, an allowance amounting to lifetime expected credit losses is recognized at first reporting date. To measure the lifetime expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on aging categories. An allowance for doubtful receivables is measured based on historical loss rates adjusted by forward looking estimates and individual assessment. The inputs used in the model are updated on a regular basis. Impairment is recognized as an expense in Other operating expenses. If an amount previously recognized to Consolidated Income Statement is subsequently settled, it is recognized as a reduction to Other operating expenses.

Supplier Financing Arrangements
Fiskars Group has a supplier financing arrangement in place with a partner bank. Under the arrangement, the suppliers participating in the program may receive early payment of their invoices from the bank, who agrees to pay amounts due to the suppliers in respect of invoices owed by Fiskars Group. Fiskars Group subsequently repays the bank on the original invoice date. The principal purpose of this arrangement is to improve the working capital management for Fiskars Group and provide suppliers with an option to enhance their liquidity through early payment. Fiskars Group includes the amounts subject to the arrangement within trade payables as the nature and function of these payables remains the same as those of other trade payables.

Group companies have various pension plans in accordance with local conditions and practices in the countries in which they operate. The plans are classified as either defined contribution plans or defined benefit plans. Under a defined contribution plan the group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. If the entity does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits in question, the Group will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions. All other plans not meeting the above criteria are classified as defined benefit plans. Most of the plans that group companies have are classified as defined contribution plans and related contributions are charged to the income statement in the year in which the payment obligation has arisen.
The costs for defined benefit pension plans are calculated and recognized under the terms of the plan based on actuarial calculations. Pension costs are recognized as expenses over the employees\u2019 service period. The pension obligation is measured as the present value of the estimated future contributions deducted by the fair value of plan assets at the end of the reporting period. Changes in the estimates in the actuarial calculations may influence the reported pension obligations and
pension costs. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI).

Accounting principles
A provision is recognized when the Group as a result of a past event has a present legal or constructive obligation, it is probable that the obligation will be realized and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A provision for restructuring is recognized when a detailed formal plan has been prepared and when there is a valid expectation relating those affected that the plan will be carried out. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting
period. If it is possible to receive compensation for a part of the obligation from a third party, the compensation is recognized as a separate asset, but only when receipt of the compensation is virtually certain.
Fiskars Group may be a party to lawsuits and legal processes concerning the Group\u2019s business operations. A related provision is recognized in the financial statements when the amount of the expenditure can be estimated reliably and it is more likely than not that they will be realized. Otherwise these contingent liabilities are disclosed in the notes.
Warranty provisions relate to products sold and are reviewed and adjusted regularly to reflect the estimated cash outflows to settle the warranty claims. Other provisions include, among others, provisions for legal expenses and estimated costs for refurnishment of premises.

5.2\tFinancial risk management
Financial risks are managed centrally by the Group Treasury in accordance with the Treasury Policy approved by the Board of Directors.
Currency risk
Currency risk refers to changes in income statement, cash flow, balance sheet and competitiveness of Fiskars Group due to changes in exchange rates. Fiskars Group's transaction and translation positions are managed separately.
Transaction risk
Transaction risk arises from foreign currency denominated cash flows, and is measured as net of commercial and financial receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies. The objective of managing the transaction risk is to reduce the impact of changes in exchange rates on the profit and cash flow of the Group. Group companies are responsible for managing the currency risks associated with their commercial cash flows and to hedge their exposure using currency forwards entered into with the Group Treasury. The net position is hedged with currency derivatives in accordance with the Treasury policy approved by the Board of Directors.
The most significant risks relate to appreciation of DKK, THB and USD, and to depreciation of SEK, AUD and JPY. Fiskars Group is exposed to rate changes in the local currencies of its suppliers, of which the most important is CNY.
Fiskars Group does not apply hedge accounting on foreign exchange derivatives as defined in IFRS 9. All
gains and losses resulting from currency derivatives are booked in the income statement. Had hedge accounting been applied on currency derivatives, Fiskars Group\u2019s consolidated profit before tax for 2024 would have been EUR 2.5 million lower (0.8 million higher in 2023).
Translation risk
Translation risk refers to the impact of changes in exchange rates on the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of cash flows and consolidated balance sheet. These changes can also impact key indicators, such as net debt/LTM EBITDA (excl. IAC), equity ratio and gearing. Translation risk is not hedged.
Interest rate risk
Exposure of the values of cash flows, assets and liabilities to interest rate fluctuations gives rise to interest rate risk. In Fiskars Group it is measured by the average interest rate reset period of financial liabilities excluding lease liabilities. The average reset period reflects the time it takes on average for the change in interest rates to impact the interest costs of the debt portfolio. The risk is quantified in monetary terms as the change in interest costs during the observation period caused by a permanent one percentage point rise in interest rates. The shorter the average reset period, the more unpredictable are the interest costs.
Derivatives may be used in the management of interest rate risks, and hedge accounting is applied on interest derivatives. The objective is to maintain the average reset period within the limits of 6 to 48
months as set out in the Treasury policy. Interest rate swaps can be treated as cash flow hedges or as fair value hedges. Cash flow hedges are entered into to offset exposure to variability in cash flows of floating rate debt. Fair value hedges mitigate the risk of exposure to changes in the fair value of the issued bond, on which a fixed yearly coupon is paid. As of December 31, 2024 the Group had interest rate swaps in the amount of EUR 165.0 million outstanding (2023: EUR 165.0 million). The Group\u2019s interest-bearing net debt excluding leasing liabilities as of December 31, 2024 was EUR 346.3 million (2023: 295.8). Of the debt 46% (48%) was linked to variable interest rates. The average interest rate reset period of the debt was 22 months (2023: 28 months).
Sensitivity of interest expenses on changes in market rates has been calculated by assuming permanent one percentage point increase in market rates and assuming no change in net debt during the year. The calculated impact on the consolidated result before tax would be EUR -1.3 million (2023: -0.8 million) in 2024.
Liquidity and refinancing risk
Liquidity risk refers to the risk of the Group\u2019s financial assets and sources of funding proving insufficient to fund its business operations or the risk of a situation where arranging such funding would result in substantial additional costs. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain an optimal amount of liquidity to fund the business operations of the Group at all times while minimizing interest costs. Liquidity is considered to be the sum of cash and cash
equivalents and available committed credit lines. The amount of needed liquidity is regularly assessed.
Refinancing risk refers to exposure to unavailability or prohibitively expensive price of financing at the time of maturity of expiring financing lines. The objective of refinancing risk management is to minimize the risk by diversifying the maturity structure of the debt and loan facility portfolio.
Fiskars Group had EUR 250.0 million (250.0) of long-term committed credit facilities and uncommitted overdraft facilities of EUR 51.7 million (49.4). A commercial paper program of 400.0 million was available with Nordic banks. Of the long-term committed credit facilities EUR 0.0 million was in use (0.0), and of the commercial paper program EUR 75.2 million (92.4) was in use.
Commodity risk
Fiskars Group is exposed to fluctuations in the prices of certain commodities. The Group may use derivatives to hedge its exposure to this risk where appropriate. At the end of the year, the Group held outstanding commodity swaps in gold and silver to hedge the purchase price of these commodities. The nominal value of these derivatives amounted to EUR 6.4 million (4.3). Hedge accounting is not applied on commodity derivatives.
Credit risk
Group Treasury is responsible for evaluating and monitoring financial counterparty risk. The Group minimizes this risk by limiting its counterparties to creditworthy banks and financial institutions and by
working within defined counterparty limits. Sales function is responsible for monitoring customer credit risks. The Group\u2019s clientele is extensive and even the largest customers represent less than 10% of the outstanding receivables. As of the end of the year, the Group\u2019s trade receivables totaled EUR 188.9 million (2023: 177.2). The financial statements include provisions for bad debt related to trade receivables totaling EUR 5.7 million (2023: 3.8).
Management of capital
Fiskars is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements (other than possible local company law requirements effective in the jurisdictions where Fiskars Group companies are active).
The Group\u2019s objectives when managing capital are:
to safeguard the Group\u2019s capacity to fund its operations and take care of its obligations
to maintain a balanced business portfolio that provides return both on short and long term to its shareholders
to maintain possibilities to act on potential investment opportunities
to maintain an equity ratio that exceeds 40%
to maintain a net debt to last 12 months' EBITDA (excl. IAC) ratio of maximum 2.5
5.2\tFinancial risk management
Financial risks are managed centrally by the Group Treasury in accordance with the Treasury Policy approved by the Board of Directors.
Currency risk
Currency risk refers to changes in income statement, cash flow, balance sheet and competitiveness of Fiskars Group due to changes in exchange rates. Fiskars Group's transaction and translation positions are managed separately.
Transaction risk
Transaction risk arises from foreign currency denominated cash flows, and is measured as net of commercial and financial receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies. The objective of managing the transaction risk is to reduce the impact of changes in exchange rates on the profit and cash flow of the Group. Group companies are responsible for managing the currency risks associated with their commercial cash flows and to hedge their exposure using currency forwards entered into with the Group Treasury. The net position is hedged with currency derivatives in accordance with the Treasury policy approved by the Board of Directors.
The most significant risks relate to appreciation of DKK, THB and USD, and to depreciation of SEK, AUD and JPY. Fiskars Group is exposed to rate changes in the local currencies of its suppliers, of which the most important is CNY.
Fiskars Group does not apply hedge accounting on foreign exchange derivatives as defined in IFRS 9. All
gains and losses resulting from currency derivatives are booked in the income statement. Had hedge accounting been applied on currency derivatives, Fiskars Group\u2019s consolidated profit before tax for 2024 would have been EUR 2.5 million lower (0.8 million higher in 2023).
Translation risk
Translation risk refers to the impact of changes in exchange rates on the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of cash flows and consolidated balance sheet. These changes can also impact key indicators, such as net debt/LTM EBITDA (excl. IAC), equity ratio and gearing. Translation risk is not hedged.
Interest rate risk
Exposure of the values of cash flows, assets and liabilities to interest rate fluctuations gives rise to interest rate risk. In Fiskars Group it is measured by the average interest rate reset period of financial liabilities excluding lease liabilities. The average reset period reflects the time it takes on average for the change in interest rates to impact the interest costs of the debt portfolio. The risk is quantified in monetary terms as the change in interest costs during the observation period caused by a permanent one percentage point rise in interest rates. The shorter the average reset period, the more unpredictable are the interest costs.
Derivatives may be used in the management of interest rate risks, and hedge accounting is applied on interest derivatives. The objective is to maintain the average reset period within the limits of 6 to 48

Financial assets
Fiskars Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, and financial assets at amortised cost. Financial assets are classified at initial recognition based on their purpose of use. For assets not at fair value through profit or loss, the directly attributable transaction costs are included in the original costs of the financial assets. All purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized or derecognized using trade date accounting. The Group derecognizes financial assets when it has lost its right to receive the cash flows or when it has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards to an external party. Fair value categories of financial instruments are explained in Note 5.4.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and via other comprehensive income
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets that are held for trading or are designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition (the fair value option). In Fiskars Group this category comprises investments in listed securities,
and derivative instruments on which hedge accounting is not applied, as well as interest rate swaps hedging fair value.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value both at initial recognition and subsequently. The fair values of the listed securities are based on quoted rates at the end of the reporting period, and both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the income statement under financial items. The fair value measurement principles of derivative instruments are described in Note 5.6.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include listed shares. These assets are measured at fair value at initial recognition and subsequently. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets at amortised cost are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are not held for trading or designated as available for sale upon initial recognition. This category comprises trade receivables and other receivables. It also includes deposits to guarantee leases and other similar items presented under
Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Trade and other receivables are described in more detail in Note 4.2.
Loans and other receivables are measured at amortized cost. The allowance for expected credit losses is based on the risks of the individual items. Carrying amounts of receivables are adjusted to their probable value as a result of this assessment. Loans and receivables are included in current or non-current assets based on their term to maturity. Amounts expected to be recovered or settled in no more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are included in current assets.
Cash and cash equivalents
The balance sheet item Cash and cash equivalents includes cash, i.e. cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents comprise highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. The items included in cash equivalents have original maturities of maximum three months from the date of acquisition. Bank overdrafts are included in current interest-bearing financial liabilities. Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortized cost.

Financial liabilities and borrowing costs
Fiskars Group classifies its financial liabilities in the following categories: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (includes derivative liabilities) and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. A financial liability is initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost or, in the case of the issued sustainability linked bond, valued using the effective interest rate method. Fair value hedges in the amount of EUR 60 million have been entered into to hedge the fair value of the issued bond. To the extent the fair value of the bond is hedged, the carrying amount is adjusted by the change in fair value. Derivative liabilities are measured at fair value. Financial liabilities are classified as non-current or current. The latter group comprises all those financial liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period. The Group removes a financial liability (or a part of it) from its balance sheet only when it is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Arrangement fees related to loans and loan commitments are amortized over the expected loan term. Georg Jensen A/S had an outstanding bond with a nominal amount of EUR 40 million. The bond was redeemed early on the 26 October 2023 in its entirety. In 2023, a redemption premium of EUR 1.1 million, interest expense of EUR 0.9 million and make-whole interest in the amount of EUR 1.3 million were paid in connection with the early redemption.

Derivatives and hedge accounting
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized at fair value through profit and loss. The Group does not apply hedge accounting on foreign exchange derivatives. Foreign exchange derivatives are initially valued at cost and subsequently at fair value determined at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of derivatives is based on prevailing market rates or rates derived from the prevailing market rates at the end of the reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). Fair value changes are recognized in financial items in profit and loss.
Fiskars Group applies hedge accounting to interest rate swaps (cash flow hedges and fair value hedges). Derivatives on which hedge accounting is applied are initially valued at cost and subsequently at fair value at the end of each reporting period. To the extent the cashflow hedges are effective, the fair value change including deferred tax is recognized in equity through other comprehensive income. Any ineffectiveness is recognised in financial items in profit and loss. Fair value changes of fair value hedges are recognized in financial items in profit and loss. The fair value is based on prevailing market rates or rates derived from the prevailing market rates at the end of the reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2).
Hedge accounting is not applied on commodity derivatives. Fair value changes are recognized in financial items.

Accounting principles
Financial liabilities and borrowing costs
Fiskars Group classifies its financial liabilities in the following categories: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (includes derivative liabilities) and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. A financial liability is initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost or, in the case of the issued sustainability linked bond, valued using the effective interest rate method. Fair value hedges in the amount of EUR 60 million have been entered into to hedge the fair value of the issued bond. To the extent the fair value of the bond is hedged, the carrying amount is adjusted by the change in fair value. Derivative liabilities are measured at fair value. Financial liabilities are classified as non-current or current. The latter group comprises all those financial liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period. The Group removes a financial liability (or a part of it) from its balance sheet only when it is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Arrangement fees related to loans and loan commitments are amortized over the expected loan term. Georg Jensen A/S had an outstanding bond with a nominal amount of EUR 40 million. The bond was redeemed early on the 26 October 2023 in its entirety. In 2023, a redemption premium of EUR 1.1 million, interest expense of EUR 0.9 million and make-whole interest in the amount of EUR 1.3 million were paid in connection with the early redemption.
Accounting principles
Fiskars Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, Fiskars Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of future unpaid lease payments. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group, and payments of penalties
for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date as typically the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily available. Subsequently lease liability is measured using the effective interest rate method, and the carrying amount of lease liability is increased with the interest on the lease liability, reduced with the amount of lease payments made, and adjusted to reflect any reassessments or lease modifications made. The carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.

Total, Dec 31 | 338.9 | 331.0 | 336.5 | 330.7 |
Loans from credit institutions are valued at amortized cost. Issued bonds are valued using effective interest rate method. The fair values of loans from credit institutions have been calculated by discounting the cash flow of the debt by the market rate at the end of reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). The fair value of the bond is calculated based on the market quotations at the end of the reporting period (level 1).
The sustainability linked bond issued 16 November 2023 is unsecured and carries a yearly coupon of 5,125%. The coupon is subject to sustainability performance targets pertaining to Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions reduction by 50% by year-end 2026 versus 2017, and to 60% of the suppliers by spend of the Group having science-based emission reduction targets by year-end 2024. The step-up margin equals 0,375% p.a. for the last interest period if the first target is not met, and 0,125% p.a. for the last three interest periods if the second target is not met. The principal amount of the bond equals EUR 200 million, and the maturity of the bond is 16 November 2028.
In 2024, Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions (KPI 1) increased by 4% compared to 2023 and decreased by 54% compared to the base year 2017.
Testing date in respect of KPI 1 is year-end 2026 and therefore there is no impact from the first target on the bond characteristics at the end of 2024. At the end of 2024, 64% of Fiskars Group\u2019s suppliers by spend covering purchased goods and services had set science-based targets (KPI 2). Fiskars has now achieved the second KPI target and therefore confirms that there is no impact from the second target on the bond characteristics. Verification has been performed by an external and independent reviewer as part of this report. For more information on the KPIs and definitions, please refer to Fiskars Group\u2019s Sustainability-linked bond framework, which is available on the Company\u2019s website.

Maturity of liabilities
As of December 31, 2024 the Group had unused committed credit facilities EUR 250.0 million (2023: 250.0) at its disposal to guarantee its liquidity. The average maturity of the credit limit agreements as of December 31, 2024 was 3 years (2023: 2). Maturities of long term loans are presented in the below table. Agreements concerning credit facilities and long term loans include a covenant for the solidity. The covenant is tested at the end of each quarter until the maturity of the credit facilities and term loans. Breach of covenant requires material deterioration of the solidity from the current, and the Group has no indication that it will have difficulty complying with this covenant. The issued bond does not include financial covenants, but the future coupon payments are linked to achievement of certain sustainability metrics.

Sensitivity analysis of currency exposure
The exchange rate sensitivity analysis in accordance with IFRS 7 indicates how the profit before taxes or consolidated Group equity would be impacted by a 10% depreciation of a currency. The impact of a 10% appreciation of a currency would be approximately the opposite. The analysis of impact on profit includes internal and external foreign currency denominated financial items of the parent company in the selected currencies. Estimated commercial cash flows of the Group companies consist of net purchases and sales in foreign currencies during the subsequent year. Derivatives include transactions to hedge the estimated commercial flows. Other financial items include foreign currency denominated loans, deposits and investments. The selected currencies represent approximately 90% of the commercial net foreign currency flows. The sensitivity analysis on the consolidated Group equity illustrates translation risk related to the foreign currency denominated equity.

Accounting principles
Derivatives and hedge accounting
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized at fair value through profit and loss. The Group does not apply hedge accounting on foreign exchange derivatives. Foreign exchange derivatives are initially valued at cost and subsequently at fair value determined at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of derivatives is based on prevailing market rates or rates derived from the prevailing market rates at the end of the reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2). Fair value changes are recognized in financial items in profit and loss.
Fiskars Group applies hedge accounting to interest rate swaps (cash flow hedges and fair value hedges). Derivatives on which hedge accounting is applied are initially valued at cost and subsequently at fair value at the end of each reporting period. To the extent the cashflow hedges are effective, the fair value change including deferred tax is recognized in equity through other comprehensive income. Any ineffectiveness is recognised in financial items in profit and loss. Fair value changes of fair value hedges are recognized in financial items in profit and loss. The fair value is based on prevailing market rates or rates derived from the prevailing market rates at the end of the reporting period (fair value hierarchy level 2).
Hedge accounting is not applied on commodity derivatives. Fair value changes are recognized in financial items.

1In 2023, board member Julia Goldin acted as an advisor to the company in a separately defined assignment, for which she was paid market-based compensation which was EUR 15,714.
The key management consists of the Board of Directors, the President & CEO and the members of Corporate Management Team (Fiskars Group Leadership Team). The figures are presented on an accrual basis.
Fiskars Group Leadership Team belongs to share-based long-term incentive plans to which participants are selected by the Board of Directors annually. In 2024 there is one plan in place, Performance Share Plan 2021, which includes three on-going performance periods for years 2022-2024, 2023-2025 and 2024-2026. The Board of Directors confirms the targets separately for each performance period and they are based on the company\u2019s total shareholder return and cumulative comparable EBITA (performance period 2021-2023), total shareholder return and cumulative comparable EBIT (performance period 2022-2024) and total shareholder return, cumulative comparable EBIT and circular economy
(performance period 2023-2025) during the vesting period. No reward will be paid if targets are not met or if the participant\u2019s employment ends before reward payment. The expense recorded during the financial year for the corporate management team is included in the salaries and fees figures above.
Fiskars Group Leadership Team members who are part of Finnish social security system have a collective supplementary pension insurance, which includes an old-age pension at the retirement age, vested rights under certain conditions and indemnity payable at death. The amount of pension income is based on the insurance savings. The employer's contribution
to the insurance plan is 20% of the preceding year's income, excluding bonuses, for CEO and 16%-20% of the preceding year's income, excluding bonuses, for Fiskars Group Leadership Team excl. CEO.
The President and CEO\u2019s compensation consists of base salary, annual short-term incentive plan and a share-based long-term incentive plan. The President and CEO participates in the ongoing performance periods 2022-2024, 2023-2025 and 2024-2026 of the long-term incentive plan. The President and CEO\u2019s employment contract will end by the time of the statutory retirement age. The President and CEO and the Company have a notice period of six months.
Remuneration upon dismissal by the Company equals annual base salary, in addition to the salary for the six-month notice period.
On February 7, 2023, it was announced that the Board of Directors of Fiskars Group decided on a management share ownership program aimed at the company\u2019s CEO, the Group\u2019s management team, and certain key personnel determined by the Board. In a paid directed share issue, a total of 156,401 shares held by the company were subscribed. More information about the incentive scheme can be found in note 2.5 Share-based payments. As part of the program, the Board decided to offer market-based co-financing for the subscription of the company\u2019s shares by granting interest-bearing loans to the participants of the program. The maximum loan amount for the CEO and CFO was 50 percent and for other target groups 75 percent of the share investment amount. The total amount of financing granted by the company was EUR 1,357,328.70 (2023: EUR 1,206,274.00). The financing taken in March 2023 must be repaid by July 30, 2027, and the financing taken in March 2024 must be repaid by July 30, 2028.
Interest on the unpaid loan principal must be paid from the withdrawal date at a rate of 12-month Euribor plus a margin of 1.00 percent. Interest is due semi-annually on October 1 and April 1 until the entire loan is repaid. The borrowers have committed to pledging the purchased company shares as collateral for the loan repayment, if the Board later separately decides to approve the pledge based on the authorization received from the General Meeting of shareholders.

1In 2023, board member Julia Goldin acted as an advisor to the company in a separately defined assignment, for which she was paid market-based compensation which was EUR 15,714.
The key management consists of the Board of Directors, the President & CEO and the members of Corporate Management Team (Fiskars Group Leadership Team). The figures are presented on an accrual basis.
Fiskars Group Leadership Team belongs to share-based long-term incentive plans to which participants are selected by the Board of Directors annually. In 2024 there is one plan in place, Performance Share Plan 2021, which includes three on-going performance periods for years 2022-2024, 2023-2025 and 2024-2026. The Board of Directors confirms the targets separately for each performance period and they are based on the company\u2019s total shareholder return and cumulative comparable EBITA (performance period 2021-2023), total shareholder return and cumulative comparable EBIT (performance period 2022-2024) and total shareholder return, cumulative comparable EBIT and circular economy
(performance period 2023-2025) during the vesting period. No reward will be paid if targets are not met or if the participant\u2019s employment ends before reward payment. The expense recorded during the financial year for the corporate management team is included in the salaries and fees figures above.
Fiskars Group Leadership Team members who are part of Finnish social security system have a collective supplementary pension insurance, which includes an old-age pension at the retirement age, vested rights under certain conditions and indemnity payable at death. The amount of pension income is based on the insurance savings. The employer's contribution
to the insurance plan is 20% of the preceding year's income, excluding bonuses, for CEO and 16%-20% of the preceding year's income, excluding bonuses, for Fiskars Group Leadership Team excl. CEO.
The President and CEO\u2019s compensation consists of base salary, annual short-term incentive plan and a share-based long-term incentive plan. The President and CEO participates in the ongoing performance periods 2022-2024, 2023-2025 and 2024-2026 of the long-term incentive plan. The President and CEO\u2019s employment contract will end by the time of the statutory retirement age. The President and CEO and the Company have a notice period of six months.
Remuneration upon dismissal by the Company equals annual base salary, in addition to the salary for the six-month notice period.
On February 7, 2023, it was announced that the Board of Directors of Fiskars Group decided on a management share ownership program aimed at the company\u2019s CEO, the Group\u2019s management team, and certain key personnel determined by the Board. In a paid directed share issue, a total of 156,401 shares held by the company were subscribed. More information about the incentive scheme can be found in note 2.5 Share-based payments. As part of the program, the Board decided to offer market-based co-financing for the subscription of the company\u2019s shares by granting interest-bearing loans to the participants of the program. The maximum loan amount for the CEO and CFO was 50 percent and for other target groups 75 percent of the share investment amount. The total amount of financing granted by the company was EUR 1,357,328.70 (2023: EUR 1,206,274.00). The financing taken in March 2023 must be repaid by July 30, 2027, and the financing taken in March 2024 must be repaid by July 30, 2028.
Interest on the unpaid loan principal must be paid from the withdrawal date at a rate of 12-month Euribor plus a margin of 1.00 percent. Interest is due semi-annually on October 1 and April 1 until the entire loan is repaid. The borrowers have committed to pledging the purchased company shares as collateral for the loan repayment, if the Board later separately decides to approve the pledge based on the authorization received from the General Meeting of shareholders.

Acquisitions and divestments in 2023
Acquisition of Georg Jensen
On October 1, 2023, Fiskars Group announced that it has completed the acquisition of renowned Danish luxury lifestyle brand Georg Jensen by acquiring 100% of the shares of Georg Jensen Investment ApS. Georg Jensen is headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark and is present in over 10 countries. In 2022, Georg Jensen employed 1,205 employees (FTEs), net sales were EUR 158.1 million and EBIT was EUR 14.9 million.
The enterprise value of the acquisition was approximately EUR 155 million on a cash and debt free basis, and final consideration transferred after ordinary post-closing adjustments was EUR 124.7 million. The amount of consideration is final and does not carry any contingent consideration arrangements. Fiskars financed the acquisition with debt.
The acquisition supports Fiskars Group's Growth Strategy by expanding the company's luxury home brand portfolio, which already includes the iconic brands of Royal Copenhagen, Waterford and Wedgwood. Furthermore, reuniting the beloved Danish design brands Georg Jensen and Royal Copenhagen offers attractive commercial excellence opportunities. Georg Jensen\u2019s position in direct-to-consumer (DTC) channels is strong with over
50% of sales from own retail and e-commerce. In terms of markets, Fiskars Group sees potential to expand the brand\u2019s presence in China in particular. Commercial excellence, DTC and China are three of the four transformation levers in Fiskars Group\u2019s Growth strategy.
The transaction is expected to create significant cost synergies related to, for example, support functions and sourcing. The annual synergies are expected to amount approximately EUR 18 million, majority of which is expected to be realized by the end of 2025.
As a result of updated purchase price allocation Fiskars Group has on September 30, 2024 recognized a negative goodwill of EUR 19.4 million, when initial negative goodwill recognized was EUR 25.4 million. Main items driving fair value of net assets being higher than purchase consideration were valuation of trademark and customer lists, and inventory fair value step-up for finished goods.
The purchase price allocation in Annual report 2023 was provisional1and has been updated on September 30, 2024. The following table summarizes the consideration paid, provisional amounts for the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as well as cash flow impact at the date of acquisition. The net assets acquired are denominated in DKK. EUR values have been translated using foreign exchange rate prevailing at the date of acquisition.
1According to IFRS 3, adjustments to purchase price allocation are possible for a year after the closing of the acquisition, that being until September 30, 2024.

The acquired business was consolidated into the Group financials as of October 1, 2023 onwards.

In October-December, the acquired business contributed comparable EBIT of EUR 12.2 million.
If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023, management estimated that the combined statement of income would have show net sales of EUR 1,225.2 million and EBIT of EUR 43.5 million. These pro forma amounts included the fair value adjustments determined as at December 31, 2022 for the period of January-September 2023. Comparable EBIT for the period of January-December would have been EUR 100.6 million.
Acquisition related costs of EUR 5.6 million were charged to Selling, general and administrative costs in the Consolidated statement of income in 2023 and presented as Items Affecting Comparability.

Litigation
Fiskars Group is involved in a number of legal actions, claims and other proceedings. Due to the nature of these proceedings, the final outcomes of these cases cannot be predicted. Taking into account the available information to date, these proceedings are not expected to have a material impact on the operations and financial position of the Group, nor impact the guidance for 2025. It is possible that based on later information, the view may be reconsidered. In particular, Fiskars Group\u2019s well-known and strong brands are exposed to e.g. infringement of intellectual property rights and therefore enforcement actions are part of ordinary business. Fiskars Group considers that investments made in enforcement actions are essential in order to protect and maintain the competitive edge created by our unique designs, innovations and strong brands.
Fiskars Group entities are subject to tax audits in certain countries. It is possible that tax audits may lead to reassessment of taxes.

Items affecting comparability
Exceptional and material transactions outside the ordinary course of business are treated as items affecting comparability. These include items such as gains and losses on disposal of business operations, impairments, costs of discontinued significant business operations, restructuring costs and costs of integrating acquired businesses, major product recalls, and fines and penalties. Gains and losses are presented in the Consolidated Income Statement as an income or expense on the relevant line item and function. Impairments have been presented in the Income Statement in depreciation, amortization and impairment of the relevant function or in Goodwill and trademark impairment when the impairment concerns goodwill or trademarks. Write-downs are presented in other operating expenses.
2024
Items affecting comparability in 2024 consist mainly Georg Jensen acquisition related costs, including inventory fair value step-up release, integration costs and update of the purchase price allocation in 2024, resulting a decrease in the negative goodwill amount recorded in 2023. In addition the IAC's resulted from changes in the organization.
On October 24, 2024 Fiskars Group announced it plans to separate its two Business Areas into independent operations and legal entities, completing
'brands first' approach. The new organization is expected to be effective starting on 1 April 2025, with the legal entity structure completed by the end of the first quarter of 2026.
Once completed, the new structure together with other simplification actions initiated by Fiskars Group are expected to generate annual, run-rate cost savings of approximately EUR 12 million, the majority of which will be realized in 2025. The expected one-off transition expenses, reported as items affecting comparability, of approximately EUR 8 million will be recorded gradually as actions are completed.
2023
On March 30, 2023, Fiskars Group announced it has initiated employee consultations in its Iittala factory and retail network in Finland that were completed during spring. The number of employees covered by the consultations in factory and retail network was 175 and 26, respectively. One-off costs related to these changes amount to a total of approximately EUR 5 million and they were recorded as items affecting comparability during 2023.
On September 13, 2023, Fiskars Group announced its plans to simplify its organizational structure to speed up the continued transformation of the company and to increase efficiency. The planned organizational changes were estimated to result in total annual cost savings of approximately 400 roles globally, the
majority of which are in the global supply chain. The planned changes were estimated to result in annual cost savings of approximately EUR 25 million, out of which the majority would realize during 2024. One-off costs related to the planned changes were expected to amount to a total of approximately EUR 6 million and those were recorded as items affecting comparability in Q4 2023.
On October 1, 2023, Fiskars Group announced that it has completed the acquisition of Georg Jensen. Acquisition related costs include transaction costs and other costs such as inventory fair value step-up release. More information about the acquisitions can be found from Note 6.3.
