Notes to the carve-out financial information

1. Background

Cargotec Corporation ("Cargotec" or "Cargotec parent company") with its subsidiaries ("Cargotec Group") is a leading provider of cargo handling solutions.

On 1 February 2024, the Board of Directors of Cargotec approved the Demerger plan concerning the partial demerger of Cargotec Corporation ("Cargotec" or "Cargotec parent company"). Cargotec's intention is to separate Kalmar by means of a partial demerger from Cargotec ("the Demerger"). The remaining Cargotec from the Demerger would then comprise of Hiab and MacGregor business ("the remaining Cargotec"). The Board of Directors of Cargotec has estimated that the contemplated separation of Kalmar and Hiab could unlock shareholder value by allowing both businesses to pursue sustainable profitable growth opportunities independently. The potential execution and separate listing of Kalmar on Nasdaq Helsinki is planned to take place on 1 July 2024 or as soon as reasonably possible thereafter.

The Demerger is subject to, among other things, approval by a majority of two-thirds of votes cast and shares represented in the Annual General Meeting. Cargotec intends to apply for the shares in Kalmar to be admitted to trading on the official list of Nasdaq Helsinki. The shareholders of Cargotec shall receive as demerger consideration ("Demerger Consideration) one (1) new share of the corresponding share class (i.e., class A or class B) of Kalmar for each class A and class B share owned in Cargotec, that is, the Demerger Consideration shall be issued to the shareholders of Cargotec in proportion to their existing shareholding with a ratio of 1:1. There shall be the corresponding two (2) share classes in Kalmar as in Cargotec, i.e., class A and class B, and the shares of Kalmar shall not have a nominal value. The total number of Demerger Consideration shares is expected to be approximately 64,324,118 shares at the date of the Demerger and Listing Prospectus. The total number of Kalmar's shares would thus be 9,526,089 class A shares and 54,798,029 class B shares. No other consideration shall be issued to the shareholders of Cargotec in addition to the above-mentioned Demerger Consideration to be issued in the form of shares of Kalmar. In accordance with Chapter 17, Section 16, Subsection 3 of the Finnish Companies Act, no Demerger Consideration shall be issued to any treasury shares held by Cargotec.

Kalmar has not historically formed a legal sub-group within Cargotec, and it has not prepared consolidated group financial statements prior to the Demerger. In preparation for the proposed Demerger, Cargotec will carve out and transfer relevant entities' assets and liabilities to Kalmar. Cargotec has prepared a set of unaudited carve-out financial information for the three months period ended 31 March 2024 for Kalmar to illustrate the Kalmar's result of operations, assets and liabilities and cash flows that will be carved out from Cargotec.

Kalmar's new parent company ("Kalmar Corporation") will be incorporated at the date of the registration of the execution of the Demerger with the trade register maintained by the Finnish Patent and Registration Office.

The carve-out financial information for the three months period ended 31 March 2024 has been prepared according to the basis of preparation described in the following section and the carve-out principles and accounting policies included in the Kalmar carve-out financial statements as at and for the years ended 31 December 2023, 2022 and 2021. The carve-out financial information has been prepared for inclusion in Kalmar's Demerger and Listing Prospectus which has been prepared by Cargotec for approval of the Demerger by the extraordinary shareholder's meeting and for listing of the shares of Kalmar on the Nasdaq Helsinki Stock Exchange. The carve-out financial information has been approved by the Board of directors of Cargotec to be published on 22 May 2024.

2. Basis of preparation

Carve-out financial information

The carve-out financial information for the three months period ended 31 March 2024 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting standard using the historical book values for income and expenses, assets and liabilities and cash flows attributable to the Kalmar business in Kalmar legal entities and Kalmar business units attributable to Kalmar in Cargotec's historical consolidated financial statements and interim reports. Therefore assets, liabilities, income, revenue, and expenses and cash flows which are either directly attributable to, have been allocated to or will transfer to Kalmar have been included in the carve-out financial information. The carve-out financial information also includes certain allocations from the remaining Cargotec, including the parent company Cargotec Corporation's, income, expenses, assets, liabilities and cash flows which will either be transferred to Kalmar, or which have been allocated to Kalmar for the purpose of preparation of the carve-out financial information.

The carve-out financial information has been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards and the interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee as adopted by the Commission of the European Communities (EU) in the European Union by 31 March 2024, and in consideration of the principles applied in the carve-out financial statements as at and for the years ended 31 December 2023, 2022 and 2021.

IFRS Accounting Standards does not provide guidance for the preparation of carve-out financial information, and accordingly in preparing the carve-out financial information, certain accounting conventions commonly used for the preparation of historical carve-out financial information for inclusion in a prospectus have been applied as in the carve-out financial statements as at and for the years ended 31 December 2023, 2022 and 2021.

The carve-out financial information may not be indicative of Kalmar's future performance and do not necessarily reflect what its combined income statement, balance sheet and cash flows would have been as if Kalmar has operated as an independent consolidated group and had it therefore presented standalone consolidated financial information during the periods presented.

The carve-out financial information is presented in millions of euros (EUR million), which is Kalmar's reporting currency. All figures presented have been rounded which may cause, for example, the sum of individual figures to deviate from the presented total sum.

This interim report is unaudited.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions requiring management judgement

The preparation of this carve-out financial information has required management to make estimates and judgements affecting the amounts reported in this carve-out financial information and the accompanying notes. These estimates and judgements have an impact on the carve-out principles and accounting principles applied to this carve-out financial information and on the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and cash flows. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. Estimates and judgement have been used in the following areas, among others: application of the carve-out principles, revenue recognition, defined benefit plans, income taxes, inventories, provisions, impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets, amortisation and depreciation periods, impairment testing, fair value of financial assets and liabilities and leases. More detailed information of areas involving estimation and management judgement is included in note 1 of the audited carve-out financial statements as at and for the years ended 31 December 2023, 2022 and 2021.

3. Prevailing economic uncertainty

Developments in the global economy and cargo flows have a direct effect on Kalmar's operating environment and customers' willingness to invest. Changes in the global economy and supply chains, geopolitical tensions and wars, energy availability, sanctions and trade wars can have an impact on global flow of goods and therefore on the demand of Kalmar's solutions.

Persistently high borrowing costs along with the withdrawal of fiscal support, and longer-term effects from the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine, coupled with escalating geo-economic fragmentation are hampering economic growth.

In the current market situation, demand for Kalmar's solutions might be lower than in previous years. Customers' possible challenges may also lead to postponements or cancellations of orders. Despite planned cost savings, lower production volumes could impact Kalmar's profitability margins negatively.

Availability of components and raw materials improved towards the end of the year 2023. However, disruptions in the supply chain are still possible, especially due to the recent events in the Middle East. Component availability problems as well as increased labour and energy costs could elevate manufacturing costs and increase challenges to control costs and pass them on to the prices of end products.

Deterioration of the global economic outlook and access to finance as well as interest rates that have remained higher than in the past years can lead to economic and financial difficulties among Kalmar's customers. In some cases their financial position may rapidly deteriorate significantly or even lead to insolvency. The turnover, availability, and cost of skilled personnel can create disturbances to Kalmar and its supplier operations.

Container traffic growth rate and a possible slowdown or contraction in global economic growth may in the longer term have an effect on the demand of Kalmar's heavy material handling solutions.

Financial risks related to climate change

Kalmar is exposed to climate-related risks via environmental, regulatory, and technological changes, and due to the commitments it has made to reduce emissions. Evaluation of the financial impacts of climate change on Kalmar is complicated because the occurrence and timing of the resulting effects are difficult to predict, let alone quantify.

Reaching the emission targets requires efforts in every aspect of Kalmar's business. In addition to being exposed to climate-related risks, the ongoing transition process causes new risks, the realisation of which can have significant financial effects. These effects can lead, for example, to impairments of assets due to the shortened life cycles of products, as well as additional costs related to the introduction of new technologies, which may arise in product development, the realisation of project risks, the growth of inventories, and new types of warranty defects. In addition, tightening regulation may directly limit Kalmar's product offering.

4. Segment information

Kalmar's operations and profitability is reported as a single operating segment, which is consistent with Cargotec's internal reporting and the way that operative decisions and assessment of performance have been made by Cargotec's Board of Directors together with the CEO.

Kalmar information as at and for the three months ended 31 March 2024 and 2023 and for the year ended 31 December 2023 is presented in the following tables:

6. Share-based payments

During the first quarter of the financial year 2024, Cargotec had several share-based incentive programmes in place for the group's key employees. During the quarter, the Board of Directors of Cargotec Corporation did not establish any new share-based incentive programmes.

The following share-based incentive programmes established by the Board of Directors of Cargotec during the past financial years were in operation during the first quarter of 2024: Performance share programme 2020–2024, performance period 2022–2024. The performance period includes three measuring periods of one calendar year. For its third measuring period 2024, the potential reward will be based on the eco portfolio share in orders received for the key employees of the business area Kalmar. The programme is directed to approximately 30 key employees of Kalmar.

Financial assets and liabilities recognised at fair value through profit and loss comprise mainly currency derivatives.

Therefore, these measurements are categorised in the fair value hierarchy as level 2 fair values.

The Board of Directors of Cargotec has approved a Demerger plan concerning the Demerger of Cargotec according to which all assets and liabilities of Kalmar shall be transferred to a company to be incorporated in connection with the Demerger and to be named Kalmar Oyj.

In connection with the Demerger process, Cargotec has also agreed on financing arrangements for Kalmar, consisting of in aggregate EUR 300 million existing term loan facilities and in aggregate EUR 150 million new revolving credit facilities that will transfer from Cargotec to Kalmar upon the completion of the Demerger, which is expected to take place on or about 30 June 2024. The existing term loan facilities of EUR 300 million, already including the EUR 50 million loan linked to Kalmar, have been fully drawn and mature in 2025, 2026 and 2027, respectively. The new revolving credit facility agreements will be available to Kalmar upon the completion of the Demerger on or about 30 June 2024. The financing arrangements contain customary prepayment and cancellation provisions, financial covenants (net debt to equity), operational covenants, representations and warranties and events of default (subject to certain exceptions and qualifications).

The Board of Directors of Cargotec has on 8 April 2024 proposed that the Annual General Meeting (the "AGM") of Cargotec convened to be held on 30 May 2024 would approve the Demerger Plan and resolve upon the Demerger as set forth in the Demerger Plan. The completion of the Demerger is subject to, inter alia, approval by the AGM of Cargotec. The Demerger shall be completed on the date of registration of the execution of the Demerger with the trade register maintained by the Finnish Patent and Registration Office, which is planned to be on 30 June 2024.

Certain major shareholders of Cargotec, including Wipunen varainhallinta oy, Mariatorp Oy, Pivosto Oy and Kone Foundation, holding in the aggregate approximately 41 percent of the shares and approximately 75 percent of the votes in Cargotec, have indicated their support for the proposed Demerger.

As announced by Cargotec, Kalmar's Management Team will consist of the following members: Sami Niiranen, Sakari Ahdekivi, Carina Geber-Teir, Francois Guetat, Mathias Höglund, Tommi Pettersson, Marika Väkiparta, Alf-Gunnar Karlgren, Thor Brenden, Arto Keskinen, Shushu Zhang, and Thomas Malmborg.

The Board of Directors of Cargotec has on 8 April 2024 proposed to the AGM that Jaakko Eskola be elected as the Chair of the Board and Lars Engström, Marcus Hedblom, Teresa Kemppi-Vasama, Vesa Laisi, Sari Pohjonen and Emilia Torttila-Miettinen be elected as members of the Board of Directors of Kalmar.

On 20 May 2024 Cargotec and Kalmar have entered into a Transitional Services Agreement on certain services that will be provided on a transitional basis by Kalmar or any of its affiliates, either directly or through third-party service providers, to Cargotec and Cargotec or any of its affiliates, either directly or through third-party service providers, to Kalmar for a limited transitional period after the completion of the Demerger. The Transitional Services Agreement covers certain areas such as information technology, human resources, compliance, treasury, and finance.

Kalmar has negotiated sublease agreements with Cargotec for certain office premises. The leases will be recognised in Kalmar's financial information according to IFRS 16, when a contractual obligation after the contemplated demerger is formed.
