Comparable EBIT is expected to be EUR 100-130 million.

TOKMANNI GROUP CEO MIKA RAUTIAINEN

The first quarter of the year was challenging for Tokmanni Group. Consumer
confidence remained weak in Finland and weakened in Sweden during the quarter.
Consumers had an unusual amount of uncertainties to deal with during the first
quarter, which continued to hinder purchasing decisions, especially for
expensive products. Salary increases, low inflation, falling interest rates, and
tax cuts, both implemented and planned, are improving consumers' purchasing
power and hopefully increasing confidence in consumers own economic situation.
This should support demand in our operating countries already later this year.

In the first quarter of 2025, Tokmanni Group's revenue grew by 0.8% to EUR 341.8
million. Like-for-like revenue decreased by 1.9% (+1.7%). At Group level, sales
were negatively impacted by the timing of Easter at the end of April, one less
sales day than in the comparison period and a mild winter in the Nordic
countries. Additionally, in Finland, sales were weakened by a strike week.

On a positive note, the comparable gross margin % of Tokmanni segment was one
percentage point better than the previous year. The comparable gross margin % of
Dollarstore segment weakened clearly and was 3.7 percentage points lower than
the previous year due to clearance campaigns and renewal of concept related
assortment changes, seasonal discounts, and aggressive pricing. Additionally,
the operating expenses of the Dollarstore segment increased significantly.

We have significantly deepened Dollarstore's integration into Tokmanni Group.
The integration of purchasing, supply chain, and other support functions has
begun. We are expanding our joint product assortment, enhancing operational
efficiency, and renewing Dollarstore's store concept. Numerous actions aim to
accelerate Dollarstore's growth and improve profitability. In March, Timo Heimo
was appointed Dollarstore's Managing Director. Timo has been a member of
Tokmanni Group's Executive Team since 2018. I'm very happy that Timo, a seasoned
discount retail professional, will now be leading Dollarstore.

Regarding Tokmanni's and Dollarstore's synergies, we have now achieved our
original goal of over EUR 15 million in annual synergy benefits. By the end of
March 2025, the achieved synergy benefits amounted to EUR 16.2 million on an
annual basis. We are now aiming for annual synergy benefits of over EUR 20
million by the end of 2025. Synergy benefits support low prices offered to
customers and, in part, improve the Group's profitability.

After a challenging first quarter of the year, it is very nice that the second
quarter has started on a positive note. Sales of SPAR products have started
briskly in all our Tokmanni stores, and the product assortment will
significantly expand this year. The sales of spring season products are also
clearly ahead of last year, and for the first time, a wide range of Tokmanni
Group's private label spring season products are available in stores in Sweden
and Denmark.

ADJUSTMENTS AFFECTING COMPARABILITY

Tokmanni Group reports EBITDA and EBIT as its key performance indicators and
makes adjustments to improve comparability and provide a better view of Tokmanni
Group's operational performance. EBITDA is not a key indicator according to IFRS
accounting standards and it represents operating profit before depreciation and
amortisation. Comparable EBITDA and EBIT represent the same indicators excluding
items that Tokmanni Group's management considers to be exceptional and non
-recurring. The items include changes in the fair value of currency derivatives,
which are adjusted by Tokmanni Group as they are unrealised gains or losses
related to Tokmanni Group's open cash flow hedge positions, and hence not
related to Tokmanni Group's operational performance during the review periods.
In addition, other non-recurring costs related to acquired businesses and
companies are included in the items affecting comparability as well as other non
-recurring expenses such as costs related to damages.

Tokmanni Group's management uses the comparable EBITDA margin and comparable
EBIT margin as key performance indicators when evaluating Tokmanni Group's and
its segments' underlying operational performance.

CALCULATION OF THE GROUP'S KEY FIGURES

Like-for-like revenue development, % = Like-for-like revenue development is
calculated by taking into account
the revenue growth of stores that
are not considered to be net-new and
the revenue growth of relocated
stores, as defined by Tokmanni Group
to include: (i) new stores opened;
(ii) store relocations where the
store size changes by 30 per cent or
more and the assortment increases or
is reduced substantially; and (iii)
store expansions where the store
size changes by 30 per cent or more.
If the store falls in one of these
categories, it is regarded as a net
-new or relocated store in its
opening year and in the following
calendar year. Tokmanni Group
reduces the net amount of stores
closed during the financial year
from new and relocated stores.
