CEO´S REVIEW
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 4
In 2025, Nurminen Logistics continued profitable growth with a strong
comparable EBITA of EUR 18.3 million (16.7% of net sales) and a strong
operating cash flow of EUR 20.1 million. Net sales for 2025, EUR 109.4
million, increased by 4.4% year-on-year. The business operations in
Finland and Sweden grew well, both organically and driven by the acqui-
sition of Essinge Rail Ab completed in late 2024. Several geopolitical
uncertainties and the re-routing of international flows of goods had a
negative impact on the Baltic business and volumes decreased signifi-
cantly.
INVESTMENTS IN GROWING MARKETS
Although the economic development in the markets was weak, we were
able to achieve good results in all areas and continue to invest in inter-
national growth, especially in railway logistics. We aimed for growth with
our new rail transport service between the Port of Gothenburg and North-
ern Finland. The service was quickly adopted by international customers,
but demand in the Finnish market remained more limited than expected.
Due to this, we reassessed the growth potential of the route and decided
to discontinue the service.
Our strategic solution to focus growth investments on larger markets
in mainland Europe and Sweden leverages our strong railway logistics
expertise and directs resources to areas where demand is growing. This
demonstrates the company’s courage to try new things, learn quickly and
make decisions that support long-term and strong growth in the years to
come.
We invested in supervisor training and language training for the entire
personnel to support internationalisation. With these training courses,
we strengthened leadership, team collaboration and our personnel’s
capabilities to operate in a multilingual and growing operating environ-
ment. We want to ensure that our committed employees have the best

possible conditions to develop with the company. In Sweden, we strength-
ened sales and rail operations in particular. In late February, we opened
our own weekly block train connection between northern Italy and Swe-
den. The block train transports containers, covered wagons and trailers,
and the service covers a wide clientele.
HIGH-QUALITY COMPREHENSIVE SERVICE
AS PART OF OUR COMPETITIVENESS
Our competitiveness is based on a good market position, extensive
logistics expertise and a comprehensive route network, supported by
deep customer understanding and high-quality service. We offer our
customers a comprehensive service from terminal operations to door-to-
door transports that we can produce competitively, flexibly scaling capac-
ity. Our growing train operations in Finland were among the most punctual
and efficient in the industry with a delivery reliability of 96%. Good and
consistent quality is ensured through certified processes, training, uniform
operating models and continuous monitoring of customer feedback.
IN 2026, WE WILL BE ABLE TO FOCUS
ON INTERNATIONAL GROWTH
We have started 2026 from an operationally good starting point. We see
growth increasingly coming from international markets, and our good
competitiveness facilitates continued growth in logistics between Central
and Northern Europe. Strengthening of the Swedish economy and con-
sumer demand supports our growth. We are not yet expecting a signifi-
cant turn for the better in the Baltic or Finnish markets.
Long-term agreements with several customers ensure stable profita-
bility for the next few years. Our cash position and balance sheet will

continue to enable the implementation of growth projects and the asso-
ciated controlled risk-taking.
I would like to express my warmest thanks to our dedicated and inno-
vative personnel and thank our customers and partners for their trust.
This year, we are celebrating the 140th anniversary of Nurminen Logis-
tics, which reminds us of our unique heritage and our duty to move boldly
towards new entries, growth and future opportunities.

THE BOARD'S REPORT ON OPERATIONS
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 8
In 2025, Nurminen Logistics continued profitable growth with a strong
comparable EBITA of EUR 18.3 million (16.7% of net sales) and a strong
operating cash flow of EUR 20.1 million. Net sales for 2025, EUR 109.4
million, increased by 4.4% year-on-year. Both Finnish and Swedish
business grew well organically as well as driven by the acquisition of
Essinge Rail Ab at the end of 2024. Several geopolitical uncertainties
and the re-routing of international flows of goods affected negatively on
the development of the Baltic business and volumes decreased clearly.
Although the economic development in the markets was weak, we were
able to achieve good results in all areas and continue to invest in inter-
national growth, especially in railway logistics. We further strengthened
our balance sheet position, which enables the implementation of our
growth strategy in international traffic both organically and through acqui-
sitions. At the end of the financial year, our cash and cash equivalents
amounted to EUR 20.3 million. The Group’s equity ratio was 43.9% and
net debt excluding IFRS16 items in relation to EBITDA was 0.24.
In 2025, we pursued growth through a new rail transport service devel-
oped between the Port of Gothenburg and Northern Finland. The service
was rapidly adopted by international customers; however, demand in the
Finnish market remained more limited than anticipated. As a result, we
reassessed the route’s growth potential and decided to discontinue
operations and write down the remaining unamortised development
expenses on EUR -1.8 million.
Our strategic decision to focus growth investments on larger markets
in continental Europe and Sweden leverages our strong rail logistics
expertise and directs resources to areas where demand is rising. This
demonstrates the company’s willingness to try new things, learn quickly,
and make decisions that support long-term and sustainable growth in the
years ahead.
Our cash position and balance sheet will continue to support the exe-
cution of growth projects and the related controlled risk-taking, without
which significant future growth, or the success story we are determined
to build, would not be possible.
We see good growth prospects for our international railway business,
as the expansion of our service network, the growth of our clientele and
the strengthening of our brand awareness create clear prerequisites for
development.
In 2025, we invested in developing the competence of our personnel
through various training courses. In addition, we clarified the manage-
ment structures to improve the efficiency of operations. In Sweden, we
strengthened our sales and rail operations in particular and opened an
office in northern Italy. With these measures, we will create better pre-
requisites for international growth and open our own weekly block train
connection between northern Italy and Sweden in late February. Our
block train transports containers, covered wagons and trailers, and the
service covers a wide clientele. We offer our customers a comprehensive
service from terminal operations to door-to-door transports that we can
produce competitively, flexibly scaling capacity. This entry lays down the
foundation for opening similar routes elsewhere in Europe and supports
international growth in the coming years.
In the traditional sense, the implementation and launch of the service
corresponds to logistics construction projects.
Our growing rail operations in Finland were among the most punctual
and efficient in the industry, achieving a delivery reliability of 96%.
In terminal operations in Finland, we have succeeded in significantly
increasing our clientele, particularly in green transition-related electrifi-
cation and data centre projects, which have good growth prospects.
We see 2026 as a stable year for our operations in Finland.
We believe that our extensive and in-depth expertise helps us to dif-
ferentiate ourselves for the benefit of our customers and create tangible
added value for them in the future as well. We see growth increasingly
coming from international markets, and our good competitiveness facil-
itates continued growth in logistics between Central and Northern Europe.
The fourth quarter of 2025 was operatively stronger than the compar-
ison period, and we have been able to start 2026 from a good operational
starting point. The strengthening of the Swedish economy and consumer
demand supports our growth, although we do not expect a significant
turnaround in the business conditions in the Baltic countries or Finland
in 2026.
Our competitiveness is based on a good market position, extensive
logistics expertise and a comprehensive route network, supported by
deep customer understanding and high-quality service. This lays down
a strong foundation for long-term growth of shareholder value.
We would like to express our warmest thanks to our dedicated and
innovative personnel and thank our customers and partners for their trust.
This year, we celebrate Nurminen Logistics’ 140-year history, a significant
milestone that reminds us of our unique heritage and our responsibility
to move forward boldly toward new initiatives, growth, and future oppor-
tunities.

Report on Operations
THE BOARD'S REPORT ON OPERATIONS
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 9
MARKET SITUATION AND FUTURE OUTLOOK
Nurminen Logistics estimates that the development of the logistics mar-
ket relevant to the Group will strengthen in 2026, driven particularly by
the new routes and clients in Central Europe, facilitating the positive
development of the Group’s business in 2026. The recovery of the econ-
omy and consumer demand forecast by key institutions, particularly in
Sweden, will support the demand for Nurminen Logistics’ services.
We believe that the demand for rail freight in particular, which is at the
heart of our strategy, will increase in the Group’s target markets, sup-
ported by the increased significance of environmental values in deci-
sion-making driven by tightening regulation and our growing energy raw
material transport business. The stabilisation of the interest rate environ-
ment and the improved availability of financing will support customer
demand for goods and capital goods, which, supports the demand for
Nurminen Logistics’ services.
Nurminen Logistics has maintained its readiness to quickly launch
direct rail transport between China and Finland to serve the Nordic and
Central European markets. There is a clear need for this service in the
market, as it offers a significant competitive advantage to the customer
base.
Nurminen Logistics will continue to invest in international railway ser-
vices, which we expect to be the Group’s growth engine in the future. The
Group’s long-term agreements with several customers ensure stable
profitability for the next few years. A very strong balance sheet structure,
strong positive cash flow and significant liquid assets enable organic
growth projects and possible acquisitions.
BUSINESS REVIEW
In 2025, we built the company’s future by integrating Essinge Rail into
the Nurminen Logistics brand and expanding our service offering in
Europe with, for example, project transports from Czechia, Poland and
Italy. In our domestic business, our focus area was continuous efficiency
improvement and high delivery reliability, in which we succeeded well.
Thanks to our extensive clientele, strong expertise, European terminal
network and the available wagon pool, we are able to grow the business
quickly and with capital lightness. This is reflected in the railway business,
where net sales have continued to grow by double-digit percentages and
profitability has improved by three-digit percentages. With these invest-
ments, we will enable the transport of significant volumes to a wider
market area. We see strong growth potential particularly in container
transports within the Central European rail market, which is valued at
approximately EUR 17 billion, compared with about EUR 300 million in
Finland. In addition, we are maintaining the readiness to launch rail
transport between the Nordics and China in the future to meet existing
customer demand.
In 2025, cash flow from operating activities was very strong, reaching
EUR 20.1 million (EUR 11.9 million), which increased our liquid assets
to EUR 20.3 million (EUR 16.3 million) at the end of the financial year.
We continued to strengthen the Group’s balance sheet and raised new
loans in the amount of EUR 3 million, while repaying existing loans in the
amount of EUR 6.3 million. The Group’s equity ratio was 43.9% (40.7%),
net gearing declined to 50.2% (71.7%) and interest-bearing net debt to
EBITDA was 0.87. Return on equity was 15.6% (30.0%).
Our otherwise good growth rate was weakened by geopolitical chal-
lenges affecting the Baltic businesses, which meant a decrease of EUR
-16.8 million in net sales compared to the comparison period. However,
the decline in net sales in the Baltic countries was successfully offset in
the Group’s other business areas and the full-year growth was EUR 4.6
million, or 4.4%.
FINANCIAL POSITION AND BALANCE SHEET
Cash flow from operating activities amounted to EUR +20.1 million.
October–December accounted for EUR +6.0 million of the cash flow from
operating activities. The change in working capital accounted for EUR
+1.3 million of the cash flow from operating activities. Cash flow from
investments was EUR -6,8 million. Net cash flow from investing activities
was mainly affected by payments related to acquired businesses.
Cash flow from financing activities was EUR -9.3 million, with the
largest items being EUR 3.0 million in withdrawals of non-current loans,
EUR -3.2 million in repayments of non-current loans, EUR -2.4 million in
repayments of capital, EUR -3.7 million in dividends paid to non-con-
trolling interests and in repayments of capital and EUR -3.0 million in
payments related to lease liabilities.
At the end of the review period, the Group’s cash and cash equivalents
amounted to EUR 20.3 million. Cash and cash equivalents attributable
to the Baltic operations amounted to EUR 3.1 million.
The valuation of assets in the financial statements is based on the
going concern assumption and market prices, and the assets do not
involve a risk of write-downs at the time of closing the accounts. The
Group management estimates that the cash flow will cover the current
business needs and liabilities for the next 12 months.
The Group’s interest-bearing net debt excluding IFRS 16 liabilities
amounted to EUR 6.0 million. The liabilities according to IFRS 16
amounted to EUR 15.5 million and relate to business premises leased
by the company’s business units.
The Group’s current interest-bearing liabilities, a total of EUR 10.4
million, consist of a liability of EUR 3.1 million related to a business
acquisition, bank loans, and IFRS lease liabilities of EUR 3.5 million.
Short-term financial liabilities include EUR 3.9 million of loans taken from
financial institutions and EUR 3.1 million of liabilities related to the acqui-
sition of Essinge Rail AB. Non-current interest-bearing liabilities are EUR
31.4 million, EUR 19.4 million of which consists of long-term debt and
EUR 12.0 million is related to IFRS 16 lease liabilities.
Long-term financial liabilities amount to EUR 31.4 million. Long-term
loans include a loan of EUR 0.9 million taken out by Nurminen Logistics
Plc from Finnvera, a loan of EUR 1.3 million taken out by Nurminen
Logistics Plc from Ilmarinen, a loan of EUR 5.3 million taken out by Nur-
minen Logistics Plc from Danske Bank and a loan of EUR 11.8 million
taken out by North Rail Oy from Hoplon Opportunities Fund II SCSp.
The Group’s equity amounted to EUR 42.7 million at the end of the
year, while it was EUR 41.2 million at the end of the previous financial
period. The equity ratio remained at a good level at 43.9% (40.7%). The
balance sheet total was EUR 97.3 million (101.5).

DECISIONS MADE BY THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF
SHAREHOLDERS
Nurminen Logistics Plc’s Annual General Meeting held on 16 April 2025
passed the following decisions:
ADOPTION OF THE ANNUAL ACCOUNTS AND DISCHARGE
FROM LIABILITY
The General Meeting confirmed the company’s financial statements,
reviewed the remuneration report of the administrative organs and dis-
charged those accountable from liability for the financial year 1 January
2024−31 December 2024.
PAYMENT OF DIVIDEND
In accordance with the proposal by the Board of Directors, the
Annual General Meeting decided that the profit from the financial period
ending on 31 December 2024 be transferred to retained earnings. In
addition, the General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide
at their discretion on the repayment of equity from the reserve for invested
unrestricted equity, at most EUR 4,833,175.20, if the company’s financial
position allows.
COMPOSITION AND REMUNERATION OF THE BOARD OF
DIRECTORS
The General Meeting resolved that the Board of Directors is composed
of five members. The Annual General Meeting re-elected the following
members to the Board of Directors: Irmeli Rytkönen, Olli Pohjanvirta, Erja
Sankari and Karri Koskela. Per Sandberg was elected as a new member.
The Annual General Meeting resolved that for the members of the
Board of Directors elected at the Annual General Meeting for the term
expiring at the close of the Annual General Meeting in 2026, annual
remuneration is paid as follows: EUR 60,000 to the Chair and EUR 40,000
to each other member of the Board of Directors.
In addition, a meeting fee of EUR 1,500 per meeting for the Board and
Board Committee meetings is paid to the Chairman of the Board of
Directors, and EUR 1,000 to the other members of the Board per meeting
of the Board and Board Committee. If a Board member residing abroad
participates in a meeting, a meeting fee of EUR 1,500 per meeting will
be paid to them when the meeting is held physically in Finland. Of the
annual remuneration, 50 per cent will be paid in Nurminen Logistics Plc’s
shares and the rest in cash. A member of the Board of Directors may not
dispose of shares received as annual remuneration before a period of
three years has elapsed from receiving such shares.
AUTHORISING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO DECIDE ON THE
ISSUE OF SHARES AS WELL AS THE ISSUANCE OF OPTIONS
AND OTHER SPECIAL RIGHTS ENTITLING TO SHARES
The Annual General Meeting authorised the Board to decide on the issue
of shares and/or special rights entitling to shares as referred to in chap-
ter 10, section 1 of the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act.
Based on the authorisation, the Board of Directors is entitled to issue
or transfer, either by one or several resolutions, shares and/or special
rights up to a maximum equivalent of 15,000,000 new shares so that
aforesaid shares and/or special rights could be used, for example, for
the financing of company and business acquisitions or for financing other
business arrangements and investments, for the expansion of the own-
ership structure, paying of remuneration of the Board members and/or
for the creating incentives for, or encouraging commitment in, personnel.
The authorisation entitles the Board of Directors to decide on the share
issue with or without payment. The authorisation for deciding on a share
issue without payment also includes the right to decide on the share issue
for the company itself, so that the authorisation may be used in such a
way that in total no more than one-tenth (1/10) of all shares in the com-
pany may from time to time be held by the company and its subsidiaries.
The authorisation includes the Board of Director’s right to decide on
all other terms and conditions of the share issues and the issues of spe-
cial rights. The authorisation entitles the Board of Directors to decide on
share issues, issues of option rights and other special rights entitling to
shares in every way to the same extent as could be decided by the Ge-
neral Meeting, including the Board of Director’s right to decide on directed
share issues and/or issue of special rights.
The authorisation remains valid until the end of the Annual General
Meeting of 2026, but no longer than until 30 June 2026. The authorisation
revokes any previous share issue authorisations currently valid.
AUDITOR
Ernst & Young Oy was elected as the auditor of the company for the term
ending at the close of the Annual General Meeting 2026.
ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS
Nurminen Logistics seeks environmentally friendly and efficient transport
solutions as part of the development of its services. Research shows that
the container train to China is the most ecological method of transporting
goods between China and Europe.
All services provided by the company in Finland are covered by a
certified environmental management system that meets the requirements
of the ISO 14001:2004 standard.
LONG-TERM FINANCIAL OBJECTIVES
The company’s Board of Directors has defined the Group's long-term
financial targets for 2025–2027 based on the Group's updated strategy
confirmed in 2025: EBITA % over 13%, equity ratio over 40%, Gearing
under 80%, net debt / EBITDA under 2 and growing euro-denominated
dividends.
The financial targets for 2025–2027 have been defined taking into
account the sustainable growth of shareholder value. In addition, the
domestic and international growth prospects of the railway business in
Finland and readiness for acquisitions in Finland and abroad have been
taken into account.
THE BOARD'S REPORT ON OPERATIONS
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 13
FINANCIAL GUIDANCE 2026
The Group estimates that the net sales and comparable operating profit
for the first half of 2026 will fall short of the comparison period, as the
timing of the recovery of the Baltic business is still uncertain. In addition,
the effects of our investments in growing the business in Central Europe
are expected to be seen only from the second quarter onwards. We will
specify the guidance for the financial year in connection with the publi-
cation of the half-year financial report on 24 July 2026.
SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The weakening of Europe’s economy from the current situation caused
by geopolitical uncertainties and the continuation of international conflicts
may have a negative impact on the demand for the Group’s services and
thereby on the result. Should Finland's or Sweden's foreign trade
decrease further, it will have impacts on the demand for services. In the
railway business, food supply-related fertilisers critical to the world or
metals required for the green transition being subjected to sanctions
would have a negative impact on the railway business in the EU. The
Group does not see that risks related to climate change, such as extreme
weather events, would affect Nurminen Logistics' business. More detailed
information about the risk information of the Group can be found on the
Investors page on Nurminen Logistics’ website at https://www.nurminen-
logistics.com/investors/.
EVENTS AFTER THE FINANCIAL YEAR
No significant events occurred after the financial year.

-
ment of equity from the reserve for invested unrestricted equity, at most
EUR 0.03 per each outstanding share. In addition, the Board of Directors
proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorise the Board of Direc-
tors to decide on the date of payment and the final amount of the capital
repayment.
The remaining distributable assets will be retained in unrestricted
equity.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 21
Notes to the consolidated financial statements, IFRS
1. ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES FOR THE
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE GROUP
The business idea of Nurminen Logistics is to provide and produce
high-quality and customer competitiveness increasing logistics services
in Finland and regular international railway line services. The Group’s
parent company is Nurminen Logistics Plc. The parent company’ is
domiciled in Helsinki, Finland, and its registered address is Satamakaari
24, 00980 Helsinki, Finland. The parent company is listed on NASDAQ
OMX Helsinki Stock Exchange.
Copies of the consolidated financial statements are available on the
internet at www.nurminenlogistics.com. The consolidated financial state-
ments were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 11 March
2026. According to the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act, share-
holders have the right to approve or reject the financial statements in the
Annual General Meeting held after the publication of the financial state-
ments. The Annual General Meeting also has the right to decide to amend
the financial statements.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) approved in
European Union, in accordance with the IAS and IFRS standards and
SIC and IFRIC interpretations effective on 31 December 2025. Interna-
tional Financial Reporting Standards are standards and interpretations
adopted for application in the European Union in accordance with the
procedure laid down in regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 of the European
Parliament and Council. The notes to the consolidated financial state-
ments are also in accordance with the Finnish legislation on accounting
and entities complementing the IFRS.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared for the calendar
year, which is also the financial year of the parent company and Group
companies.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the
historical cost basis except for the financial assets and financial liabilities
measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The financial statements are presented in thousands of euro and the
figures are rounded off to the nearest thousand, so the sum of individually
presented figures can deviate from the disclosed sums.
APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED IFRS STANDARDS
There were no changes to the IFRS standard in the reporting period
beginning on 1 January 2025 that would have a significant impact on
Nurminen Logistics’ consolidated financial statements.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
SUBSIDIARIES
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements
of Nurminen Logistics Plc and those of all its subsidiaries. The subsid-
iaries are entities controlled by the parent company. Nurminen Logistics
Plc controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable
returns from its involvement with the investee and can affect those returns
through its power over the investee. Subsidiaries acquired are included
in the consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date that
control commences until the date that control ceases.
Acquired subsidiaries are accounted for by using the acquisition
method. The consideration transferred, identifiable assets and liabilities
assumed of the acquired entity and are measured at their fair values at
the acquisition date. Goodwill arising on an acquisition is recognised as
the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred, the amount
of any non-controlling interests and previously held equity interests in
the acquiree, over the Group’s share of the fair value of the net assets
acquired at the acquisition date.
The consideration transferred includes any assets transferred by the
acquirer, liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the
acquiree and the equity interests issued by the acquirer, measured at fair
value. Any contingent consideration related to the business combination
is measured at fair value at the acquisition date and it is classified as
either liability or equity. Contingent consideration classified as liability is
remeasured at its fair value at each balance sheet date and the subse-
quent changes to fair value are recognised in profit or loss. Contingent
consideration classified as equity is not subsequently remeasured. The
consideration transferred does not include any transactions accounted
for separately from the acquisition, which are treated in conjunction with
the acquisition in profit or loss. All acquisition-related costs, with the
exception for costs to issue debt or equity securities, are expensed in the
periods in which costs are incurred and services rendered.
All intra-group transactions, receivables and liabilities as well as unre-
alised gains and profit distribution are eliminated in the consolidation.
Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate item under equity.
NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS
Any non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured on an acquisi-
tion-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at the non-controlling
interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets.
Changes in the parent company’s ownership interest in a subsidiary are
accounted for as equity transactions if the parent company retains control
over the subsidiary.
The result for the financial year and items recognised in other compre-
hensive income are allocated to the equity holders of the parent company
and non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income is allocated
to the equity holders of the parent company and non-controlling interests,
even if that results in a deficit balance, unless non-controlling interests
have an exemption not to meet obligations which exceed non-controlling
interests’ investment. Equity attributable to the non-controlling interest is
presented separately under equity in the consolidated balance sheet.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 22
ASSOCIATES
Associates are companies in which the Group has significant influence.
Significant influence generally arises when the Group holds 20 to 50 per
cent of a company’s voting power or the Group otherwise has significant
influence but not power to govern the financial and operating policies of
an entity. Associates are consolidated using the equity method. When
the Group’s share of an associate’s losses exceeds the carrying amount
of the interest, the interest is recognised at zero value in the balance
sheet and recognition of further losses is discontinued, except to the
extent that the Group has committed to settle the associate’s obligations.
Investment in an associate includes goodwill arisen on acquisition. Unre-
alised gains resulting from transactions between the Group and the
associate are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associate. The
Group’s share of an associate’s result for the financial year is disclosed
separately after financial items in the consolidated statement of compre-
hensive income.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
Items included in the financial statements of each subsidiary in the Group
are determined using the currency reflecting the primary economic envi-
ronment of that subsidiary (“the functional currency”). The consolidated
financial statements are prepared in euro which is the functional and
presentation currency of the parent company and the presentation cur-
rency of the consolidated financial statements.
Foreign currency transactions of the Group companies are translated
into functional currencies using the exchange rates prevailing at the
transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currency are translated using the balance sheet date exchange rates and
non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at historical cost
are translated using the transaction date exchange rates. Gains and
losses arising from the translation are recognised in the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income.
In the preparation of consolidated financial statements, income and
expenses for the income statements and for the statements of compre-
hensive income of those foreign Group companies whose functional
currency is not euro, are translated into euro by using the average
exchange rate for the financial year and the balance sheets are translated
at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Translation differences
arising from such translation are recognised in equity. Retranslating the
result and the total comprehensive income for the financial year using
different exchange rates for the statement of comprehensive income and
for the balance sheet causes a translation difference recognised in
Group’s equity, the change in this translation difference is recognised
under other comprehensive income. Respectively, foreign currency dif-
ferences arising from the elimination of the costs of foreign subsidiaries,
and from the retranslation of post-combination equity components in
subsequent periods, are recognised in other comprehensive income.
When a foreign operation is sold or is otherwise disposed of, in part or in
full, the accumulated foreign currency differences are recognised in the
statement of comprehensive income as part of the gain or loss on sale
for the disposed part.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Items of property, plant and equipment are carried at historical cost less
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The cost includes all
expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The bor-
rowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of an
asset that necessarily takes a substantial period to get ready for its
intended use or sale, are capitalised as part of the carrying amount of the
asset. Subsequent costs are recognised in the carrying amount of the
item only if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with
the asset will flow to the Group and its cost can be measured reliably.
Other repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Property,
plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over
their estimated useful lives, which are the following:
Buildings 30–40 years
Transport equipment 5–8 years
Machinery and equipment 3–10 years
Locomotives 30 years
Locomotive parts 5–12 years
ICT equipment 3 years
Software 5–10 years
Land is not depreciated.
Recognition of depreciation on an item of property, plant and equip-
ment is discontinued when the item is classified as held for sale in accor-
dance with IFRS 5 standard. Non-current assets held for sale are mea-
sured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
Gains and losses on the disposal of assets are reported as the difference
between selling price and carrying amount, and the gains and losses are
included in other operating income and expenses in the income state-
ment.
Useful lives and residual values are reviewed at every balance sheet
date. Changes in the future economic benefits to be received from the
items of property, plant and equipment are accounted for by adjusting
the useful lives and residual values of the items in question. Gains and
losses arising from sale and disposal of property, plant and equipment
are included in other operating income or in other operating expenses.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
GOODWILL
Goodwill arising on business combinations is recognised as the excess
of the aggregate of the consideration transferred, the amount of non-con-
trolling interest in the acquiree and the value of any previously held equity
interest over the fair value of the acquired net assets.
Goodwill is not amortised but it is tested at least annually for impairment.
Goodwill is carried at historical cost less accumulated impairment losses.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Research costs are expensed in the financial year in which they are
incurred. Development costs are capitalised when certain criteria are
met.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 23
OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
An intangible asset is recognised in the balance sheet only if its 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.
An intangible asset is measured at historical cost less amortisation and
any impairment losses. Group’s intangible assets include mainly IT soft-
ware which is amortised on a straight-line basis over 5 to 7 years.
IMPAIRMENT OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND PROPERTY,
PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
The Group assesses, at every balance sheet date, if there are any indi-
cations of impairment of property, plant and equipment or intangible
assets. In case such indications exist, the asset’s recoverable amount is
estimated. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable
amount, the impairment loss is recognised in the income statement. The
recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs
to sell and its value in use.
As to goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated at least annually
irrespective of whether indications of impairment exist. Impairment is
assessed at a cash-generating unit level, i.e. at the lowest level for which
there are separately identifiable, mainly independent cash flows. In impair-
ment testing of goodwill, the recoverable amount is based on value in use,
i.e. on the estimated discounted future net cash flows.
At the recognition of the impairment loss the asset’s useful life is re-es-
timated. The recognised impairment loss is reversed if the estimates used
to determine the asset’s recoverable amount have changed. The rever-
sal of the impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would
have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the
asset. An impairment loss on goodwill is never reversed.
APPLICATION OF IFRS 9
Impairment policies are based on expected credit loss models. Impair-
ment models apply to cash and cash equivalents, such as rental, sales
and factoring receivables and loan receivables.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
FINANCIAL ASSETS
Financial assets of Nurminen Logistics are classified according to IFRS
9 into the following categories: financial assets at amortised cost and
financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The classification of
financial assets is made at initial recognition of financial assets and is
based on the business model applied by the company for the holding of
financial assets and the nature of contractual cash flows.
Measurement of a financial asset at amortised cost requires the contrac
-
tual cash flows to consist solely of interest and the repayment of principal
(the so-called SPPI criterion). Compliance with the SPPI criterion is
assessed on a per-instrument basis. If the SPPI criterion is not met,
financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
Financial assets are classified as current assets if they have a maturity
of less than 12 months and are expected to be disposed of within 12
months. Otherwise, the item is presented as non-current assets. Trans-
action costs are included in the original carrying amount of the financial
assets in the case of an item measured at amortised cost. Purchases
and sales of financial instruments are recognised on the settlement date.
The fair values of financial instruments are determined using discounted
cash flows.
FINANCIAL ASSETS AT AMORTISED COST
An item of financial assets is measured at amortised cost if the business
model requires the collection of fixed or predetermined cash flows. They
consist of repayments of capital and interest on capital and arise when
the Group provides loans or provides products and services directly to
debtors. If an item of financial assets does not meet the above conditions,
it is measured at fair value. The Group typically recognises rental, fac-
toring and trade receivables as well as loan receivables at amortised
cost.
CREDIT RISK ASSESSMENT OF FINANCIAL ASSETS
In accordance with IFRS 9, Nurminen Logistics recognises expected
credit losses on cash classified at amortised cost. According to this model,
expected loan losses based on an individual counterparty default risk
assessment. The Group uses a simplified method for recognising credit
losses permitted by the standard, in which case the Group recognises
the expected credit loss over the life of the contract. The change in
expected credit losses recorded at each reporting date reflects the
change in the credit risk of the financial assets from the initial recognition.
A credit loss transaction is no longer required to record a credit loss.
Recognising the amount of expected credit loss and a proactive provision
for impairment is based on the management’s best estimate of future
credit losses. Customer receivables and the related credit loss risk are
actively monitored by the company, and decisions on measures to secure
the receivables are made, if necessary. When the amount of provision
for credit loss is estimated on a case-by-case basis, any collateral or
insurance, the customer’s financial position and previous payment
behaviour are taken into consideration.
Financial assets are derecognised when the Group loses its contractual
right to receive cash flows or when it has transferred a significant part of
the risks and rewards of ownership. An impairment loss is recognised
immediately in profit or loss, depending on the item, either in other oper-
ating expenses or in financial items.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and bank accounts
as well as highly liquid investments with original maturities of three
months or less at the acquisition date.
FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
The financial liabilities of Nurminen Logistics are classified to the follow-
ing categories: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and
financial liabilities measured at amortised cost (other financial liabilities).
The former category includes derivatives entered into by the Group, to
which hedge accounting is not applied and that are not financial guaran-
tee contracts. They are classified as held-for-trading instruments. The
financial liabilities in this category are initially measured at fair value and
are subsequently re-measured at their fair values. Gains and losses
arising from derivatives’ fair value changes, both unrealised and realised,
are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they occur. Fair
values are determined by discounting the instruments’ cash flows.
Other financial liabilities are measured at fair value upon initial recogni-
tion. Transaction costs are included in the original carrying amount.
Subsequently other financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost
using the effective interest rate method.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 24
A financial liability is classified as current if 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. A financial liability (or part
of the liability) is not derecognised until the liability has ceased to exist,
that is, when the obligation identified in a contract has been fulfilled or
cancelled or is no longer effective.
REVENUE RECOGNITION PRINCIPLES ADAPTATION OF
IFRS 15
The company’s revenue consists mainly of forwarding services, railway
transport and terminal services. The company also receives income from
short- and long-term warehousing services. Revenue is recognised as
goods are assigned to customer or service is concluded: as performance
obligations are met and customer obtains the goods or services within
the performance obligation. Revenue is recognised with the same price
that the company expects to be entitled to, with sales taxes and other
possible compensations deducted from the price. The prices for compa-
ny’s services are fixed and generally contain no variable components.
The Baltic subsidiaries act as freight brokers, and net sales are rec-
ognised when the performance obligation has been fulfilled, i.e. the
services have been performed.
Revenue recognition principles have been described below:
Railway services
The company provides international railway transport services with var-
ious types of wagons in which the goods are delivered to destination.
The contract price of trains or containers en route at the end of the report-
ing period is recognised as revenue over time, corresponding to the time
en route on the closing date relative to the total delivery time. The recog-
nition principles applies to rail transport offered by international railway
operations and North Rail Oy. The service is a singular contract obliga-
tion, which includes transport service to the destination, and the contract
price is allocated in full to that obligation.
The principle of revenue recognition is based on the IFRS 15 criterion
that the performance obligation is fulfilled over time when performing a
transport service.
Forwarding
Forwarding service agreement consists of actions necessary for import-
ing, exporting and customs duties. As whole they compile the perfor-
mance obligation towards customer, which is usually concluded within a
month from the signing of the agreement. The company recognises
revenue from agreement price when the delivery orders connected to
import or export have been received and authority over the goods is
transferred to customer or other party. The entire contract price is allo-
cated to a single performance obligation.
Terminal services
Terminal services consist of handling of goods at the arrival or departure
of goods. The definite content of service is defined at contract level.
Terminal service agreement is an entity to which the contract price is
allocated. The contract price is recognised when the work on handling
goods has been completed.
Warehousing services:
Warehousing services consist of renting space from terminal or terminal
area for short or long term holding of goods. The warehousing agreement
is an entity to which the contract price is allocated. Profits from warehous-
ing services are recognised over the time during the lease period for
which the customer benefits from the service. Lease income is processed
according to IFRS 15 standard when the customer is not given control
over the leased space.
CONTRACTUAL AMOUNTS RECOGNISED ON THE BALANCE
SHEET
Trade receivables
Trade receivable is a transaction price to which the company has an
unconditional right
Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are typically from 14 to
60 days, corresponding to the average payment terms.
Contract assets or contract liabilities Due to
the nature of the business, the company does not
have contract assets or contract liabilities.
EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
PENSION ARRANGEMENTS
The pension arrangements of Nurminen Logistics have been classified
as defined contribution plans.
Payments to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense
in the income statement in the period to which they relate. In defined
contribution plans the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate
entity. The Group has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further
amounts in case the separate entity receiving the contributions fails to
pay out the pension benefits.
Defined benefit pension plans are insured by a life insurance company,
and in addition to the old-age pension benefit, the additional pension
insurance covers any survivor’s pension benefit and burial grant benefit.
Additional defined benefit pension obligations are measured based on
calculations by independent actuaries. According to the measurement
principles, assets are measured at fair value on the closing date, costs
according to the calculation method and recognised in profit or loss, in
addition interest is recognised in financial items and actuarial gains and
losses caused by the remeasurement of the defined benefit net debt in
comprehensive income, and these items will not subsequently be reclas-
sified in profit or loss. The defined benefit pension plan is described in
more detail in Note 23.
SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
Starting from 2022, Nurminen Logistics has two share-based incentive
programmes for the company’s key personnel: Performance Share Plan
2022–2026 and Restricted Share Plan 2022–2026, and starting from
2023, the CEO Performance Share plan 2023–2027. More details on the
share-based incentive schemes are presented in Note 22.
The rewards will be paid partly in Nurminen Logistics shares and partly
in cash. The cash proportions of the rewards are intended for covering
taxes and tax-related expenses arising from the rewards to the partici-
pants. In general, no reward is paid if the participant’s employment or
director contract terminates before the reward payment.
The amount of remuneration paid based on the share-based incentive
scheme will be cut if the maximum value for remuneration paid for the
earning periods 2022–2024 set by the Board of Directors is reached.
The Nurminen Logistics Management Team member is obliged to hold
50 per cent of the received net reward shares, until the total value of the
Management Team member’s shareholding in Nurminen Logistics equals
to 50 per cent of their annual base salary of the preceding year. Respec -
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 25
tively, the CEO is obliged to hold 50 per cent of the received net reward
shares, until CEO´s shareholding in Nurminen Logistics equals to 100
per cent of the CEO´s annual base salary of the preceding year. Such
number of Nurminen Logistics shares must be held as long as the mem-
bership in the Management Team or the position as the CEO continues.
Share-based transactions paid in cash include arrangements in which
the company has granted the persons a right to future cash payments by
granting them a right to shares that can be redeemed at the request of
either the company or the employee. A liability resulting from such an
arrangement is measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period
and on the day of settling the debt, and changes in fair value are rec-
ognised in profit or loss for the period in question. The benefits granted
in the scheme are measured at fair value upon granting and expensed
in the income statement over the vesting period.
INCOME TAXES
The income tax expense in the statement of comprehensive income
comprises the current tax, adjustments to previous periods’ taxes as well
as changes in deferred taxes. Income taxes are recognised in profit or
loss except when they relate to other comprehensive income or equity,
while income taxes are recognised within the respective items. Current
tax is calculated based on taxable income using tax rates enacted in each
country.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are calculated for tem-
porary differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities used for
taxation purposes and the carrying amounts for financial reporting pur-
poses under IFRS. The principal temporary differences arise from finan-
cial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss and depre-
ciation related to component accounting. Deferred taxes are measured
at the tax rate that has been enacted or substantially enacted by the
reporting date.
A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that
future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differ-
ence can be utilised. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised in the state-
ment of financial position in full.
TANGIBLE ASSETS AND LEASES
IFRS 16 requires lessees to recognise all leases in the balance sheet on
a right-of-use basis. Leased assets are treated during the lease term on
the same basis as owner-occupied assets and the right-of-use assets
recognised for them on the balance sheet are amortised based on the
defined lease term. The debt based on the present value of the rent is
reduced as the rent is paid. The group’s right-of-use assets are comprised
of the IFRS 16 lease liabilities concerning land and water areas, buildings
and machinery and equipment.
Because of its industry and business model, Nurminen Logistics pri-
marily is the lessee in the contracts. The company primarily applies the
standard to leases on land areas, premises and terminal properties, as
well as terminal machinery and equipment. In determining the term of a
lease, the company has exercised discretion in estimating the probabil-
ity of exercising the extension options of leases and included the terms
covered by the option in the term of the lease, if exercising the option is
reasonably certain.
Leases are distinguished from service contracts using a control model.
When the arrangement includes a specific asset that is under the control
of the customer, it is a lease. The contract is recognised in the balance
sheet as a non-current asset and a liability arising therefrom. Service
contracts are recognised as an expense in the income statement.
LEASE LIABILITIES
At the commencement date of the agreement, Nurminen Logistics values
the lease liability at the present value of the rent outstanding at that date.
Payments include fixed rentals and residual value guarantees less any
available lease incentives. The company considers lease termination
charges as part of the lease payments if it has considered the option to
terminate during the lease term. VAT is not included in the amount of the
lease liability and management and maintenance fees and other pay-
ments of a service nature are generally treated as an expense that can-
not be capitalised in the balance sheet. Interest expenses are recognised
through profit or loss over the term of the lease and the right-of-use asset
is amortised using the straight-line method over the term of the lease
Rents are discounted using the company’s estimated incremental
borrowing rate. The standard defines the incremental borrowing rate as
the interest that the lessee would have to pay on borrowing for the same
period and with similar collateral to acquire the asset at the cost of the
underlying asset.
RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS
Nurminen Logistics records the lease at the commencement date of the
lease, i.e. the date on which the lessor transfers the asset to the control
of the company. The property, plant and equipment are measured at cost
less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for
any subsequent revaluation of the lease liability. The original cost equals
the original lease liability. The right-of-use assets are subject to impair-
ment testing.
APPLICATION OF FACILITATIONS AND
SIGNIFICANT ASSUMPTIONS
Nurminen Logistics does not treat short-term leases of less than 12
months or low value assets as property, plant and equipment, but recog-
nises the resulting rental expense in the income statement. Contracts of
minor value primarily include IT and office hardware, company cars and
small office spaces. Fixed-term leases are dealt with by the company
within the term of a non-cancellable lease term and are subject to any
subsequent option periods when the company has reasonable assurance
that they will be exercised. The management exercises discretion in
assessing the term of leases valid until further notice, which is based on
the company’s strategic situation and market conditions, as well as the
costs that would be incurred if the leased commodity was replaced by
another commodity.
Leases in which Nurminen Logistics is the lessor are operating leases
and are recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over
the lease term.
The remaining liabilities for leases that do not include property, plant
and equipment assets and lease liabilities are disclosed in Note 27 as
off-balance sheet liabilities.
OPERATING PROFIT
The operating profit is the total of sales and other operating income from
which expenses for material and services, employee benefits and other
operating expenses as well as depreciation, amortisation and impairment
losses on non-current assets are subtracted. Foreign currency differen-
ces arising from working capital items are included in the operating result,
whereas foreign currency differences from financial assets and financial

liabilities are included in financial income and expenses.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES REQUIRING MANAGEMENT
DISCRETION AND KEY UNCERTAINTIES ASSOCIATED WITH
ESTIMATES
The preparation of IFRS financial statements requires the company’s
management to make certain estimates and assumptions and discretion
in the application of accounting principles. The estimates and assump-
tions made affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the
balance sheet as well as the income and expenses in the income state-
ment.
In business combinations fair values of the items of property, plant and
equipment and intangible assets are estimated and the depreciation and
amortisation periods for the assets are determined. The determination
of fair value of intangible assets is based on estimates about future cash
flows to be generated by these assets.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually. Management’s judgment
must be used in determining the cash-generating units for goodwill test-
ing. The recoverable amounts of the cash-generating units are deter
-
mined based on value in use. The preparation of these calculations
requires use of estimates. In calculation of value in use estimates are
made about future cash flows and discount rate to be used. Estimates
are based on budgets and forecasts, which contain some degree of
uncertainty.
Business acquisitions may result in an advantageous deal when the
net amount of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the
time of acquisition is greater than the consideration given. The gain on
the advantageous deal is recognised through profit or loss at the acqui-
sition date.
The recognition and measurement of deferred taxes requires the
company’s management to make estimates, especially in the case of a
deferred tax asset recognised based on the Group companies’ losses or
another temporary difference for which a deferred tax asset is recognised.
Due to uncertainty regarding use of confirmed losses, the Group recog-
nises deferred tax assets in the consolidated balance sheet by the prin-
ciple of prudence.
Property, plant and equipment as well as intangible assets are
reviewed annually as to whether any indications exist that these assets
might be impaired. If indications exist, the asset’s recoverable amount is
estimated.
Items of property, plant and equipment as well as intangible assets are
depreciated and amortised over their estimated useful lives. The useful
lives are reviewed regularly. With regard to non-current assets held for
sale, the management regularly reviews whether the criteria of IFRS 5
for probability of divestment of the asset within a 12-month period from
classifying these assets as non-current assets held for sale are not met.
If indications exist, the asset is derecognised from non-current assets
held for sale.
Estimates made in preparing the financial statements are based on
the management’s best view and the information available at the balance
sheet date. Estimates and assumptions are based on experience and
other factors that are considered the best view in measuring such assets
and liabilities, whose values cannot be derived from other sources. The
estimates concerning the future are based on assumptions that are
regarded as the most probable at the balance sheet date relating to the
expected development of the financial environment of Nurminen Logistics
and assumptions about the development of sales and cost level. Actual
results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed continuously. The
realisation of estimates and assumptions and the changes in underlying
factors are reviewed regularly by using both external and internal sources
of information. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the
period in which the estimates are revised if the revision affects only the
period in question. If the revision to accounting estimate affects both the
period in which the estimate is revised and future periods, the revision is
recognised respectively in the period in question and in future periods.
NEW AND REVISED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS
The International Accounting Standards Board has announced the fol-
lowing new or revised standards and interpretations, which the Group
has not yet adopted but which are estimated to have an impact on the
Group’s financial statements. The Group will apply each standard and
interpretation as of its effective date or, if the effective date is some other
date than the first day of the accounting period, as of the beginning of the
financial year following the effective date. New standards and amend-
ments to existing standards coming into effect in the fiscal year beginning
on 1 January 2026 or later are the following:
Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial
Instruments – Amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and
IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, effective from 1 January
2026. The new requirements are applied retrospectively and the
effects of the amendments are recognised through profit and loss on
the opening balance sheet. The changes clarify the derecognition of
financial liabilities. The amendments also include an alternative
accounting policy to derecognise a financial liability before the settle-
ment date when the payment of the financial liability is made using
an electronic payment system and when certain other criteria are
met. The amendments clarify how to assess the characteristics of
contractual cash flows of financial assets that are ESG-linked or have
similar contingent characteristics. The amendments clarify how finan-
cial assets without a right of return and instruments contractually
bound to them are treated. The amendments require disclosure of
additional information on financial assets and liabilities whose cont-
ractual terms refer to a contingent event (including ESG-linked) and
equity instruments classified at fair value through other comprehen-
sive income.
The amendments have no material impact on Nurminen Logistics'
notes on the fair value of other equity instruments measured through
comprehensive income.
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, effec-
tive from 1 January 2027. The standard is applied retrospectively.
The new IFRS 18 standard introduces new requirements for the
presentation of the income statement. The company must classify
all income and expenses in the income statement into one of five
categories: operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discon-
tinued operations, the first three of which are new categories. In
addition, IFRS 18 requires the following subtotals and totals to be
presented in the income statement: operating profit or loss, profit
before financing and income tax, and profit or loss.
IFRS 18 also requires the presentation of new management-defined
performance measures (MPM) in the financial statements. The manage-
ment-defined performance measures (MPMs) are defined as a subtotal
of income and expenses that the entity uses in public communications
outside financial statements. The standard requires the company to
present information on all performance measures defined by manage-
ment in a single note.
The new standard also introduces changes to the application of IAS 7
Statement of Cash Flows. In the indirect cash flow statement, the ope-
rating cash flow begins with the item operating profit or loss. The new
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 27
standard also removes the option that allowed classifying interest and
dividend cash flows.
The adoption of IFRS 18 is expected to have an impact, in particular,
on the presentation and disaggregation of information in the consolidated
income statements and notes. A more detailed analysis of the impact on
Nurminen Logistics Plc’s financial statements will be completed in 2026.
WAR IN UKRAINE AND THE GEOPOLITICAL SITUATION
A weakening in world trade from the current situation as a consequence
of the war in Ukraine may have a negative impact on the demand for the
Group’s services and thereby result. In addition, in the railway business,
food supply-related fertilisers critical to the world or metals required for
the green transition being subjected to sanctions due to the war in Ukraine
might have a negative impact on the business of North Rail Oy.
As Russia's war of aggression continues in Ukraine, the demand for
the Trans-Caspian route bypassing Russia has stabilised. In addition,
the situation in the Red Sea, which remained tight and continued during
the financial year, has increased the demand for direct rail transport
between Europe and Asia.
Geopolitical factors, such as the war in the Middle East, increase the
need for alternative and safe transport routes for companies. Nurminen
Logistics continuously and actively develops the routes to solve custo-
mers' logistical needs in changing conditions.
RISKS RELATED TO CLIMATE CHANGE
The Group does not see that risks related to climate change, such as
extreme weather events, would affect Nurminen Logistics' business.
AUDITING
The Group's interim reports and financial statements release for the 2025
financial year are unaudited.

In the financial years 2024 and 2025, the company aimed to grow with the development of a new rail transport service between Gothenburg
and Northern Finland, and the development costs were capitalized on the balance sheet. Amortization of development costs began in July
2025. The service was quickly adopted by international customers, but demand in the Finnish market remained more limited than expected.
Therefore, the company reassessed the growth potential of the route, and it was decided to discontinue the route and write down the
unamortized development costs by EUR 1.774 million in the financial statements for 2025.

After initial recognition, the Group’s cash and cash equivalents are classified as financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
or at amortised cost. Financial assets at fair value are measured at level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Financial liabilities at fair value are
measured at level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the contingent consideration has been calculated by discounting the item using
the company-specific discount rate.
The following levels are used in measuring fair values:
Level 1: Fair value is determined on the basis of quotations from the market.
Level 2: Fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Fair value means the value that can be determined from the market value of parts
of a financial instrument or similar financial instruments; or a value that can be determined using valuation models and methods generally
accepted in the financial markets, if the market value can be reliably determined using them.
Level 3: Fair value is determined using valuation techniques in which the factors used have a significant effect on the recorded fair value and
these factors are not based on observable market data.

15. IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, and if indications of impairment
exist. The recoverable amount in the impairment testing calculations is
determined on the basis of value in use.
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of the assets
allocated to a cash-generating unit, including goodwill, is higher than the
unit’s recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of each cash-gen-
erating unit is determined by discounting the estimated future cash flows
of the unit.

Signals on possible depreciation of assets are regularly observed from
information sources within and outside the Group. Such signals can be,
for example, unexpected deviations from key assumptions in Group
reporting. In addition to this the signals can be changes in competition
or other circumstances in the market, or new regulations or concessions
that have an impact on various business fields.
Impairment test calculations on cash flow are based budgets and
strategic forecasts accepted by management from the previous five
years. For the time period after this forecast period (terminal value)
estimated cash flows have been defined by using long term growth
forecasts. Essential assumptions having an impact on defining values in
use are connected to the development of net sales and profitability, and
to weighted average cost of capital (WACC) used in discounting cash
flows.
For the five-year time period the cash flow has been estimated to
develop according to the company’s medium-term net sales and profit-
ability goals. Sales increase and profitability level development have
been estimated on the basis of recent business development and general
forecasts. Terminal value is based on 1% growth in cash flow. The cash
flow forecast is based on turnover and profitability forecasts made for

Goodwill is allocated for cash generating units (CGUs) for impairment
testing. In 2025, Nurminen Logistics Plc Group had three cash-generat-
ing units (CGUs): Finnish business, Baltic business (51% majority) and
Swedish business. Goodwill is allocated to business operations in Finland
and Sweden.
each business sector, which are based on the budget for the year 2026
and long-term strategy approved by management. These are influenced
by the expected market development in Finland and Europe and the
measures taken by the company to improve profitability.
The discount rate is based on industry average WACC after tax. The
discount rate used is 10.35%. Discount rate and impairment test calculation
take into account market risks and capital intensity. The cost for equity
affecting on WACC is consistent with the Group’s long-term targets. Net
sales in the Finnish business were EUR 62.4 million and in the Swedish
business 16.9 million in 2025. The net sales are expected to increase, in
particular due to international cargo train traffic and domestic rail traffic in
2026. The estimated annual increase in net sales (CAGR) over the years
2026–2030 averages 5.6%. The forecast average increase in total net
sales per year over the years 2026–2030 is 5.7%. The average growth of
the Finnish CGU over the same period is estimated at 6.5% and the CAGR
at 6.3%. The average growth of the Swedish CGU over the same period
is estimated at 2.0% and the CAGR at 2.0%. The total operating margin
for the underlying business is expected to be above the Group’s long-term
target throughout the estimation period. (The company’s long-term target
is above 13%). The tax rate used in the testing of the Finnish CGU is 20%
and in the testing of the Swedish CGU 20.6%.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS WHEN ONE COMPONENT CHANGES:
The management estimates that the most sensitive judgements relate to changes in terminal growth, profitability and WACC.

Change
Impact of change on recoverable amount
Terminal growth 1%
Terminal growth -1%-point i.e. terminal growth

EUR -21.4 million
Average EBIT 16.2% and EBITDA 22.3%
EBITDA decrease 1%-point i.e. average
EUR -12.7 million
EBITDA 21.3%
The recoverable amounts of the Finnish CGU would decrease by EUR 14,167 thousand if the terminal growth rate is 0%, by EUR 19,729
thousand if the WACC is 1% higher and by EUR 11,040 thousand if the EBIT decreases by 1 percentage point. The recoverable amounts of the
Swedish CGU would decrease by EUR 989 thousand if the terminal growth rate is 0%, by EUR 1,703 thousand if the WACC is 1% higher and
by EUR 1,670 thousand if the EBIT decreases by 1 percentage point. Based on the sensitivity analyses, the management evaluates that above
mentioned essential judgements would not cause a situation in which the carrying amount of cash generating units would exceed the
recoverable amount, and this would not cause impairment loss on goodwill in fiscal year 2025. The cash flow estimate is 3.9 times the CGU’s
assets employed.

Logistics Services Oy. The favourable development of efficiency measures continued during the financial year and domestic rail traffic allow the
positive development of business operations. The company’s management assesses based on the strategy figures and comprehensive
supplementary materials that the deferred tax assets recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position will likely be used, and according
to the management’s estimate, the recognised deferred tax assets will be used by the end of 2029. Losses for which deferred tax assets were
recognised in the 2024 financial statements, EUR 439 thousand expired and were not used in 2025. The amount of deferred tax asset recognised

22. SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
According to the resolution of the Annual General Meeting, 50 per cent
of the annual remuneration of the members of the Board will be paid
in the company’s shares in 2025. The share of Board members’ share
awards recognised as an expense in the income statement was EUR
105 thousand euros in 2025. The number of shares transferred to the
members of the Board of Directors was 83,488 based on the price on
the payment date 27 June 2025 and the number of shares transferred
was 18,553 based on the price on the payment date 29 July 2025.
On 4 July 2022, the Board of Directors of Nurminen Logistics Plc
decided to create two new share-based incentive programmes for the
company’s key personnel: a performance-based share bonus plan
2022–2026 and a share bonus plan to encourage commitment 2022–
2026.
On 10 April 2025 and 8 September 2025, the Board of Directors
of Nurminen Logistics Plc decided to create two new remuneration
schemes for the company’s key personnel: the performance-based
share bonus plan 2025–2029 and the share bonus plan to encourage
commitment 2025–2029.
The aim of the programmes is to harmonise the goals of key person-
nel and the shareholders of Nurminen Logistics Plc and, thus, increase
the company’s value in the long term, promote economic and efficient
performance, as well as encourage commitment of key personnel to the
company by offering them a competitive, performance-based earnings
opportunity.
PERFORMANCE SHARE PLAN 2022–2026
The Performance Share Plan 2022–2026 consists of three performance
periods, covering the financial years of 2022–2024, 2023–2025 and
2024–2026 respectively.
In the plan, the target group is given an opportunity to earn Nurminen
Logistics shares based on achieving performance targets set by the
Board of Directors. The Board of Directors decides on the plan’s perfor-
mance criteria and targets to be set for each criterion at the beginning
of a performance period. The potential rewards based on the plan will
be paid after the end of each performance period.
EARNING PERIOD 2023–2025 OF THE PERFORMANCE SHARE
PLAN 2022–2026
On 21 November 2023, the company’s Board of Directors decided on
a new earning period for the plan, covering the financial years 2023–
2025.
The target group of the plan during the earning period 2023–2025
includes the company’s CEO and all members of the Management
Team. In the earning period 2023–2025, the rewards are based on the
total shareholder return (TSR) on Nurminen Logistics Plc’s share and
the ratio of net debt to EBITDA at the end of the financial year 2025.
The gross bonuses to be paid for the earning period are equal to a
maximum total of 376,000 Nurminen Logistics Plc shares, including
the cash share. Any rewards for the earning period 2023–2025 will be
paid by the end of May 2026, partly in Nurminen Logistics Plc shares
and partly in cash. The cash share is intended to cover the taxes and
statutory social security contributions resulting to the participant from
the remuneration.
The amount of remuneration paid based on the plan will be cut if the
maximum value for remuneration paid for the earning period 2023–2025
set by the Board of Directors is reached.
EARNING PERIOD 2024–2026 OF THE PERFORMANCE SHARE
PLAN 2022–2026
On 30 May 2024, the company’s Board of Directors decided on a new
earning period for the plan, covering the financial years 2024–2026.
The target group of the plan during the earning period 2024–2026
includes the company’s CEO and all members of the Management
Team. In the earning period 2024–2026, the rewards are based on the
total shareholder return (TSR) on Nurminen Logistics Plc’s share and
the ratio of net debt to EBITDA at the end of the financial year 2026.
The gross bonuses to be paid for the earning period are equal to a
maximum total of 376,000 Nurminen Logistics Plc shares, including
the cash share. Any rewards for the earning period 2024–2026 will be
paid by the end of May 2027, partly in Nurminen Logistics Plc shares
and partly in cash. The cash share is intended to cover the taxes and
statutory social security contributions resulting to the participant from
the remuneration.
The amount of remuneration paid based on the plan will be cut if the
maximum value for remuneration paid for the earning period 2024–2026
set by the Board of Directors is reached.
RESTRICTED SHARE PLAN 2022–2026
The Restricted Share Plan is intended to be used as a tool in spe-
cific situations seen necessary by the Board of Directors, for example
ensuring retention of key talent, attracting new talent or other specific
situations determined by the Board.
The reward from the Restricted Share Plan 2022—2026 is based
on a valid employment or director contract and the continuity of the
employment or service. The plan is intended for selected key employ-
ees only, based on the decision by the Board of Directors.
The rewards to be earned on the basis of the plan will be paid by the
end of May 2024, 2025 or 2026 but in any event a minimum twelve (12)
months after the determination of the Reward.
The gross rewards to be allocated during 2022–2026 on the basis
of the restricted share plan correspond to the value of up to 500,000
Nurminen Logistics Plc shares.
CEO PERFORMANCE SHARE PLAN
On 21 November 2023, the Board of Directors of Nurminen Logistics
Plc resolved to establish a new Performance Share Plan for the CEO
of the company. The purpose of the plan is to align the objectives of the
company’s shareholders and the CEO for increasing the value of the
company in the long term.
The CEO Performance Share Plan consists of one earning period,
which begins on 21 November 2023 and ends at the end of May 2028.
In the plan, the CEO has an opportunity to earn Nurminen Logistics
Plc shares as a reward based on the Total Shareholder Return (TSR) of
the company. The potential rewards from the plan will be paid in three
instalments during the financial years 2026–2028.
The value of the gross rewards to be paid on the basis of the plan
corresponds to an approximate maximum total of 608,000 Nurminen
Logistics Plc shares, also including the proportion to be paid in cash.
The potential rewards from the plan will be paid partly in Nurminen
Logistics Plc shares and partly in cash. The cash proportion of the
reward is intended to cover taxes and statutory social security contri-
butions arising from the reward to the CEO.

23. DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLAN
The employer has promised an additional pension benefit to a group of
former employees. In order to fulfil its promise, the employer has taken
out additional pension insurance policies from a life insurance company.
In addition to the old-age pension benefit, the additional pension insu-
rance policies include any survivor’s pension benefit and burial insurance.
The insurance company collects insurance premiums annually from
the employer. The insurance premium is primarily comprised of index
increases paid on the earned benefits. The benefits paid after retirement
are annually increased by the TyEL index specified in the insurance poli-
cies. The insurance company indemnifies the paid pensions with its own,
yield-based index, and any deficit compared to the paid TyEL index is
charged to the employer as an “index difference charge”. In addition, the
pension premium includes a management expense component to cover
the insurance company’s expenses for managing the plans.
Depending on the insurance policy, 3.5% or a lower interest rate is
used in calculating the insurance premiums.
RISKS RELATING TO DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS
Changes in the yield expectations of bonds. In the employer’s IFRS
financial statements disclosures, in deviation from the national practice,
the obligation resulting from the pension promise is measured at mar-
ket values. The pension obligation recognised for the additional pension
insurance policies in the IFRS financial statements depends on the yield
expectations of bonds issued by reputable companies at the closing
date. If the yield expectation decreases, the pension obligation calcu-
lated according to IAS 19 increases. Because the employer is not liable
for the investment risk, an increase in the yield expectation also affects
the value of the assets corresponding to the pension obligation, deter-
mined under the principles of IAS 19. The value of the assets increases
when the yield expectation decreases, which offsets the increase in the
pension obligation.
Inflation risk. The risk of inflation is taken into consideration in cal-
culating the pension obligation. Inflation is an estimate of the long-term
change in consumer prices. The inflation assumption used in the calcu-
lation is market-based, and its horizon must correspond with the average
duration of the pension obligation. In accordance with the insurance poli-
cies, the pensions paid in the plan are tied to the TyEL index, changes in
which depend on actual inflation (80%) and general wage index (20%).
The employer is liable for the difference between the TyEL index and the
index rebate granted by the insurance company. High inflation results in
an increase in the pension obligation and thereby additional expenses
for the employer.
Mortality risk. If the pension benefit recipient’s actual lifetime is higher
than expected, the insurance company covers the resulting risk. The
Gompertz mortality model, used in the statutory pension system, is used
in the IFRS calculations. Any change in the mortality model used by the
insurance company will only be reflected in the employer’s future insu-
rance premiums.
Other risks. When a person with a paid-up policy retires, the final
amount of the pension is revised, and this might result in additional costs
to the employer. Moreover, in these cases where the benefits are tied
to the TyEL index, index increases between the granting of a paid-up
policy and start of the pension for which the employer is liable will only
be charged in the year the pension is granted.
Uncertainty of future cash flows. A sensitivity analysis as of the end
of the reporting period is disclosed in IFRS reporting for each significant
actuarial assumption, indicating how somewhat possible changes in the
actuarial assumption would have affected the defined benefit pension
obligation during the year. The pension obligation of the sensitivity ana-
lysis is calculated using the projected unit credit method. The sensitivity
analysis only takes into consideration the impact of changes in actuarial
assumptions on the pension obligation and corresponding assets so that
a change in the assumptions does not have an effect on the insurance
premiums paid during the year and taken into consideration in assets.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF SIGNIFICANT ACTUARIAL ASSUMPTIONS

- an increase/decrease of 0.50% in the discount rate would result in a 2.7%/2.7% decrease/increase in the defined benefit obligation
- an increase/decrease of 0.50% in the benefit increase assumption would result in a 2.5%/2.3% increase/decrease in the defined benefit
pension obligation.
The sensitivity analysis presented above might not necessarily give a true view of the actual impacts of the changes. Should several
assumptions change simultaneously, the combined effect of these changes might not be the same as the sum of individual changes. If the
changes in the assumptions differ from the amounts described above, the effect on the defined benefit obligation will not necessarily be linear.

26. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The goal of the Group’s risk management is to minimise the harmful
effects of changes in the financial markets on the Group’s result and
equity. The policy for managing financial risks is based on the main
principles approved by the Board of Directors. The company’s finance
department is responsible for daily risk management within the limits
set by the Board.
CURRENCY RISK
Currency risk arises from foreign currency imports and exports, from the
financing of foreign subsidiaries and from the translation of subsidiaries’
equity in foreign currency.
The Group manages the currency risk inherent in cash flows by
keeping foreign currency income and expense cash flows in the same
currency, and by matching them simultaneously to the extent possible.
If matching is not possible, part of an open exposure may be hedged.
Foreign currency transaction risk exposure can be hedged if its coun-
tervalue exceeds EUR 500 thousand. Exposures greater than EUR 2
million are hedged 50–110%. Foreign currency risk of the net translation
exposure can be hedged 25–75%. Instruments used in hedging include
forward contracts and plain vanilla options. Exotic options are forbidden.
The hedge ratio is considered based on the current economic trends
and the predicted currency prospects as well as the functionality of
each currency’s hedge market. In extraordinary hedging market circum-
stances, the company may deviate from the guidelines above.
Currency amounts in bank accounts should be kept as small as pos-
sible without disturbing payment transactions. The amount of cash and
cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies may not exceed
three per cent of the balance sheet total.
INTEREST RATE RISK
Interest rate risks to the Group derive mainly through interest-bearing
debts. The purpose of interest rate risk management is to diminish the
effect of market interest rate movements on cash flows from financing.
Hedging instruments may include forward rate agreements and interest
rate futures, interest rate swaps and interest collar agreements.
LIQUIDITY RISK
The purpose of liquidity risk management is to ensure sufficient financ-
ing in all situations. Funds required for about two weeks’ payment trans-
actions will be reserved as a buffer for liquidity of payment transactions.
The Group aims to guarantee the availability and flexibility of financing
by using a number of financial institutions and financing methods in
raising finance.
The financial statements are based on the principle of business
continuity. The management of the company estimates that the cash
flow will cover the current business needs and liabilities for the next
12 months. The sufficiency of cash flows from operations is subject to
risks if estimates deviate considerably from expectations. If the Group
is unable to secure sufficient long term financing arrangements, the
continuity of operations can be at risk. The measurement of the assets
in the financial statements is based on the going concern assumption.
If the forecasts do not materialise, it may be necessary to recognise
impairment losses on assets.
CREDIT RISK
The objective of credit risk management is to minimise losses which
arise from the counterparty neglecting their obligations. The Group
manages the counterparty risk based on the customer credit rating and
engages in active debt collection, when necessary.
The Group has made ECL measurement analysis according to
IFRS 9. The provision for credit losses is recognised in profit or loss.

age ratio must not fall below the ratio of 4.00:1 and the company’s gear-
ing must not exceed the ratio of 1.50:1. The equity ratio is calculated

31. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTED BUSINESSES
There were no acquisitions or divestments during the financial year 2025.
During the comparison period in 2024, Nurminen Logistics Plc acquired the entire share capital of the Swedish railway logistics company Essinge
Rail AB through the transaction completed on 13 December 2024. The acquisition is part of Nurminen Logistics’ international growth strategy, which
focuses on customer-oriented rail transport. Essinge Rail AB is a logistics company specialising in international railway logistics that transports
approximately 4,500 freight wagons from Central Europe to the Nordic countries each year. In addition, the company has its own railway terminal
in Fröv, a railway hub in Sweden.
In addition, Nurminen Logistics Services Oy acquired ILP-Group Logistics Oy, which operates in Vantaa and Espoo, on 30 October 2024. ILP-
Group Logistics has been operating in the logistics sector since 1994 and specialises in comprehensive warehousing services, maritime, air and
road transport as well as forwarding. The acquisition of ILP-Group Logistics resulted in an income of EUR 40 thousand as a difference in the
purchase price and the fair values of the acquired company, recognised in other operating income. ILP-Group Logistics Oy merged into Nurminen
Logistics Services Oy in November 2025.
According to final calculations, the consideration for the acquisition, the net assets acquired and the goodwill were as follows.

company’s financial statements
The financial statements of Nurminen Logistic Plc are prepared in
accordance with Finnish Accounting Standards (FAS).
Measurement of non-current assets
Items of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are carried
at cost less the planned depreciation and amortisation. They are depre-
ciated or amortised over their estimated useful lives,
which are the following:
Intangible assets 3–5 years
Machinery and equipment 3–10 years
Other capitalised long-term expenditure 5–10 years
Goodwill 5–10 years
The company’s subsidiary shares and other shares in the investments
in non-current assets are valued at acquisition cost or, if lower, at fair
value. The fair value that are used as the basis for the valuation of
subsidiary shares is based on management’s valuation calculations of
future cash flows of subsidiaries.
Measurement of receivables
Receivables are stated at their nominal value or at a lower probable
value.
Derivatives
The company uses currency derivatives to hedge against currency risks
arising from items denominated in foreign currencies on its balance
sheet. Significant future cash flows denominated in foreign currencies
are hedged through forward contracts. Forward currency contracts are
valued on a prudent basis.
Recognition of deferred taxes
The company recognises deferred taxes in the financial statements,
and they are calculated for the temporary differences between taxation
and the financial statements byusing the tax rate established at the
balance sheet date for the following years. The balance sheet includes
the tax receivable for confirmed losses recognised on a prudent basis
(75% of confirmed losses). Confirmed losses for 2016 and 2020–2025
have not been taken into account in the calculation.
Pensions
Pension costs are presented in accordance with national legislation in
each country. The pension security of the Finnish personnel has been
arranged through external pension insurance companies.
Foreign currency items
Foreign currency receivables and liabilities are translated into euro at
the closing rate at the balance sheet date.
Related party transactions
During the financial year, the company invoiced rents to RailCap Oy
worth EUR 1,389.78 (the company is controlled by the President and
CEO). On the balance sheet date, there are outstanding receivables
from RailCap Oy amounting to EUR 1,723.33 (the company is con-
trolled by the President and CEO).
Leases
Lease payments are accounted for as rental costs. Lease payments
due in the future years under the agreements are presented under
contingencies and commitments.

The company conducted two share issues during the financial year. The
amount of shares is 80,695,211 after these transactions as at balance
sheet date 31 December 2025.

AUDITOR'S REPORT
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 65
To the Annual General Meeting of Nurminen Logistics Plc
Audit of financial statements
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Nurminen Logistics Plc
(business identity code 0109707-8) for the year ended 31 December,
2025. The financial statements comprise the consolidated balance
sheet, income statement, statement of comprehensive income, state-
ment of changes in equity, statement of cash flows and notes, including
material accounting policy information, as well as the parent company’s
balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows and notes.
In our opinion
the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the
group’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows in
accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU.
the financial statements give a true and fair view of the parent com-
pany’s financial performance and financial position in accordance
with the laws and regulations governing the preparation of financial
statements in Finland and comply with statutory requirements.
Our opinion is consistent with the additional report submitted to the
Audit Committee.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with good auditing practice in
Finland. Our responsibilities under good auditing practice are further
described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial
Statements section of our report.
We are independent of the parent company and of the group com-
panies in accordance with the ethical requirements that are applicable
in Finland and are relevant to our audit, and we have fulfilled our other
ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
Auditors report
In our best knowledge and understanding, the non-audit services
that we have provided to the parent company and group companies are
in compliance with laws and regulations applicable in Finland regard-
ing these services, and we have not provided any prohibited non-audit
services referred to in Article 5(1) of regulation (EU) 537/2014. The
non-audit services that we have provided have been disclosed in note
4 to the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment,
were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the
current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our
audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion
thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of
our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit
included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial state-
ments. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures
performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit
opinion on the accompanying financial statements.
We have also addressed the risk of management override of internal
controls. This includes consideration of whether there was evidence
of management bias that represented a risk of material misstatement
due to fraud.
Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
Valuation of Goodwill
Refer to accounting principles for the consolidated
financial statements and note 15.
The value of goodwill at the date of the financial statements
31.12.2025 amounted to 8.2 million euro representing 8% of total
assets and 19% of equity (2024: 7.4 million euro representing 7% of
total assets and 18% of equity).
Valuation of goodwill was a key audit matter because the assess-
ment process is complex and is based on numerous judgmental
estimates and because the amount of goodwill is significant to the
financial statements.
Valuation of goodwill is based on management’s estimate about
the value in use calculations of the cash generating units. There are
a number of underlying assumptions used to determine the value
in use, including development of revenue and profitability and the
discount rate applied on cash flows.
Estimated value in use of the cash generating units may vary sig-
nificantly when the underlying assumptions are changed. Changes in
abovementioned individual assumptions may result in an impairment
of goodwill.
Valuation of goodwill is also a significant risk of material misstate-
ment as defined by EU Regulation No 537/2014, point (c) of Article
10(2).
Our audit procedures to address the risk of material misstatement
in respect of valuation of goodwill included among others:
Involvement of EY valuation specialists to assist us in
evaluating methodologies, impairment calculations and
underlying assumptions applied by the management in
impairment testing.
Testing of the mathematical accuracy of the impairment
calculations.
Comparing the key assumptions applied by management in
impairment tests to approved strategic plans and forecasts,
information available in external sources and our independently
calculated industry averages such as weighted average cost of
capital used in discounting the cashflows. In addition, we
compared the outcome of the impairment test with Nurminen
Logistics’ market capitalization.
Assessment of the Group’s disclosures in respect of impair-
ment testing.
AUDITOR'S REPORT
NURMINEN LOGISTICS I ANNUAL REPORT 2025 66
Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
Revenue Recognition
Refer to the accounting principles for the consolidated financial
statements in the note 1 of the consolidated financial statements,
revenue and revenue recognition in the note 2 of the consolidated
financial statements and trade and other receivables in the note 19
of the consolidated financial statements.
Revenue recognition is considered as a key audit matter because
revenues are a key financial performance measure which could
create an incentive for revenues to be recognized prematurely.
Relevant areas from the net sales perspective are accuracy of the
recognized amounts and timing of revenue recognition.
Revenue recognition was determined to be a key audit matter and
a significant risk of material misstatement referred to in EU Regula-
tion No 537/2014, point (c) of Article 10 (2). due to the identified risk
of material misstatement in timely revenue recognition.
Our audit procedures to address the risk of material misstatement
included
the analysis of the revenue recognition accounting policies and
comparison of revenue transactions to the supporting documen-
tation in order to assess whether the requirements for the reve-
nue recognition have been met.
In addition, we requested external trade receivable confirmations,
tested general ledger journal entries on a sample basis as well as
performed analytical procedures in order to identify abnormal entries.
We also assessed the sufficiency of the revenue recognition dis-
closures in respect of the IFRS 15 standard.
Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
Valuation of subsidiary investments
Refer to the accounting principles of the parent company and to
the note 2 of the balance sheet of the parent company.
Valuation of subsidiary investments is considered as a key audit
matter because of the judgment involved in the valuation process
and because the subsidiary investments are significant to the parent
company balance sheet. The carrying value of subsidiary invest-
ments as of the balance sheet date 31 December 2025 amounted
to 54.4 million euros. These investments represented some 81% of
the total assets and some 136% of the total equity.
Valuation of subsidiary investment requires management to make
an assessment whether
there are indicators that the investments are permanently
impaired, and
what the probable value of investments is at year-end.
We involved EY valuation specialists to assist us in evaluating the
methodologies, calculations and assumptions applied by the
management in the valuation of parent company’s subsidiary
investments.
The assumptions applied by the management were compared to
approved budgets and long-term forecasts by the management,
information available in external sources, as well as
our independently calculated industry averages such as weighted
average cost of capital used in discounting the cashflows.
Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
Valuation of deferred tax assets
Refer to accounting principles for the consolidated financial
statements and note 18.
As of balance sheet date 31 December 2025, the group had deferred
tax assets arising from the unused tax losses carry forward amount-
ing to 3.8 million euro.
The amount of deferred tax asset is material to financial state-
ments. Management assessment related to the recognition of
deferred tax assets and the likelihood of future income includes
judgements relating to assumptions affected by future market and
economic developments. Due to the accounting estimates described
above, which involve uncertainty, valuation of deferred tax assets
was determined to be a key audit matter.
When auditing deferred tax assets we evaluated com-
pany’s evidence that there will be future taxable income
available to utilize the deferred tax assets.
As part of our audit procedures we
assessed the key assumptions in the calculations prepared by
the management focusing on forecasted future economic devel-
opment and the company’s ability to generate taxable income.
tested deferred tax assets including the assessment of recog-
nizing judgmental tax
positions. We reviewed the communication with tax authorities.
assessed disclosures related to deferred taxes.

Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the
Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the
financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assur-
ance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with
good auditing practice will always detect a material misstatement when
it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are consid-
ered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be
expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the
basis of the financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with good auditing practice, we
exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the finan-
cial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform
audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evi-
dence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting
from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may
involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresenta-
tions, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the cir-
cumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the effectiveness of the parent company’s or the group’s internal
control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures
made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors’ and
the Managing Director’s use of the going concern basis of account-
ing and based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material
uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast sig-
nificant doubt on the parent company’s or the group’s ability to con-
tinue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty
exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to
the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclo-
sures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are
based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s
report. However, future events or conditions may cause the parent
company or the group to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the finan-
cial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial
statements represent the underlying transactions and events so
that the financial statements give a true and fair view.
Plan and perform the group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate
audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or
business units within the group as a basis for forming an opinion on
the group financial statements. We are responsible for the direction,
supervision and review of the audit work performed for purposes of
the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding,
among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and
significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal
control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement
that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding
independence, and communicate with them all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence,
and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with gover-
nance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in
the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are there-
fore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s
report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the
matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a
matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse
consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh
the public interest benefits of such communication.
Other reporting responsibilities
Information on our audit engagement
We were first appointed as auditors by the Annual General Meeting on
12 April 2016, and our appointment represents a total period of uninter-
rupted engagement of ten (10) years.
Other information
The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for
the other information. The other information comprises the report of the
Board of Directors and the information included in the Annual Report,
but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report
thereon. We have obtained the report of the Board of Directors prior to
the date of this auditor’s report, and the Annual Report is expected to
be made available to us after that date.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other
information.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our respon-
sibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so,
consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with
the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or oth-
erwise appears to be materially misstated. With respect to report of the
Board of Directors, our responsibility also includes considering whether
the report of the Board of Directors has been prepared in compliance
with the applicable provisions.
In our opinion, the information in the report of the Board of Directors
is consistent with the information in the financial statements and the
report of the Board of Directors has been prepared in compliance with
the applicable provisions.
If, based on the work we have performed on the other information
that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, we conclude
that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are
required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
