"Efficient and productive operations have improved our operating profit."

CEO Juha Gröhn, although no signs of a real recovery in consumer purchasing power were seen in any of Atria's business areas, Atria achieved growth of around five per cent. Would you say that Atria managed to strengthen its commercial excellence, one of the cornerstones of its Group strategy?

In Finland, 2013 was a year of strong growth and we strengthened our market position. Our market share in Finland is currently around 27 per cent, up from the previous year's 25 per cent. In Atria Scandinavia, an upward trend was seen in our Danish operations, which grew despite the tough competitive environment. In the Swedish market, we recorded slight growth measured in

the local currency. In Russia, growth was slower, but the trend was positive there as well. In the Baltic countries, sales in the retail sector increased but exports decreased. In Russia and Estonia, we continued to sharpen up our product offering by eliminating unprofitable products. This slowed down growth but improved our profitability.

A significant proportion of the growth was due to an increase in prices and the degree of processing. Volumes grew substantially in certain product groups, such as in poultry in Finland and in the Sibylla concept in all markets.

One of Atria's current and future strategic themes is commercial excellence. It means productisation that is interesting from Atria's perspective and suits people's ways and styles of living, determined marketing, sales expertise and selling power.

Consolidated EBIT fell by more than EUR 10 million year-on-year, owing to Atria Russia's non-recurring cost items. Without these items, Atria's earnings totalled approximately EUR 37 million, up by around 20 per cent from the year before. How important was the second cornerstone of Atria's strategy – efficiency – to the improvement of profitability?

Efficient and productive operations have improved our operating profit, although the market conditions were not particularly favourable. Especially important advances

were the substantial efficiency improvements in the industrial operations in Russia, the opening of the bovine slaughterhouse in Kauhajoki and the increased efficiency of cold cuts production in Sweden. Smaller reforms that may seem mundane have also contributed to the

ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 4

improvement in productivity. Our performance in Estonia is cause for satisfaction.

Competition will continue to be fierce in all markets. Efficiency is an essential competitive factor. It should be seen as an overarching theme – not just as an issue related to the manufacturing of products or the logistics chain, but as something that concerns all processes and functions.

Atria's profitability curve is largely dependent on global market prices for raw materials and meat. However, the prices have different repercussions for Atria's various business areas. How would you characterise the international meat market relative to Atria's profit-making capability?

The cost level of the entire meat supply chain has been on the rise from primary production to industry. The cost increases are partially the result of higher prices of cereals and feed. Various taxes and tax-like cost factors also have a greater impact on meat and food prices than before. The situation in the meat market, which deteriorated towards the end of the year, had a negative effect on the

"Finnish consumers are interested in Finnish food and Finnish meat."

profit of the Finnish operations, in which meat trade plays a major role. In Scandinavia, our operations were stabilised by steadier prices of meat raw materials. In Russia, the availability of raw materials has been good. In this business area, the price of meat at the plant mostly consists of customs duties and import levies and, under some circumstances, Russian prices move in the opposite direction of world market prices.

On January 2014 Atria acquired Saarioinen's meat procurement, slaughtering and meat cutting operations for approximately EUR 30 million. How do you think this deal will affect the Group's growth and profitability?

Our net sales will increase by around EUR 70 million. Relative profitability will not be affected, nor will the deal have a material impact on the company's financial

position. The deal will strengthen Atria as a supplier of meat products in Finland. We are now even better placed to provide Finnish meat to retail chains, restaurants and catering services. Finnish consumers are interested in Finnish food and Finnish meat.

Atria cascaded its strategy in the various business areas through dozens of individual development projects. Could you highlight some projects that you consider to be particularly important for Atria's profitable growth over the long term?

We have contributed to the implementation of the strategy by working in projects. For example, the growth we achieved in Finland was preceded by detailed project development and planning. Also, we have made efforts in all business areas to develop meat production technology. Moreover, all business areas have their own development projects, large and small, that are being systematically managed and monitored.

One of the most significant development initiatives has been the comprehensive project known as the Atria Way of Work. Together we have defined the issues that are important for us at Atria and the things about the Atria way of life in which we believe and trust across national borders. The objective was to concisely describe what it means to be an Atria employee and to improve our capabilities and attitudes in order to implement the current strategy. A further aim was to create a solid basis of know-how for the coming years.

In 2013, we made major structural and operational changes to strengthen and accelerate Atria's profitable growth. We were able to transform the company and take several steps towards our goal of making Atria number one. I would like to thank all Atria employees and our partners for their fine work for the benefit of our customers, consumers, our shareholders and our company.

Present at all meals

As part of strategy work, Atria's management renewed the Group's vision. Its summary was published in spring 2013.

WE CREATE INSPIRING FOOD FOR EVERY OCCASION WITH STRONG BRANDS AND PASSION.

In the future, Atria will be present at both people's daily meals and celebrations in all of its business areas. Atria employees are

enthusiastic, even passionate about good food and its preparation. This attitude and feeling creates a positive spiral of commercial success.

Atria Way of Work

Atria Group's employees got together to define the Group's way of work and values – the Atria Way of Work package.

ATRIA WAY OF WORK

The Way of Work (WoW) discussions held in the various business areas in autumn 2013 were received with enthusiasm among the personnel. Some 75 per cent of Atria employees in Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Estonia contributed

to the definition of the way of work. Value discussions had already been held in Russia. Although the Group's values are the same in all business areas, individual differences exist in what is emphasised and how the values are worded.

Atria's mission

Good Food – Better Mood.

For Atria, the concept of good food covers the entire food chain from primary production to the consumer's table. Atria's good food is

produced in a responsible and ethical manner; it is of high quality, it is safe and it generates a better mood for all our stakeholders.

GROWTH AND PROFITABILITY IN 2013

Net sales rose

Atria Finland's net sales increased by more than 8% to EUR 886.8 million, up by EUR 67.3 million from the previous year. Atria grew by consolidating its market position both in the consumer goods retail trade and among Food Service customers. Sales to export and wholesale trade customers also rose.

EBIT decreased

EBIT amounted to EUR 32.9 million¹⁾, down from the previous year's EUR 36.5 million. The company's earning capacity was reduced by the decrease in consumers' average purchases and intense price competition particularly in the consumer goods retail trade. The price level also fell short of expectations in the wholesale and industrial segments. EBIT accounted for 3.7% of net sales, compared to the previous year's 4.5%.

¹⁾ The figure includes a non-recurring profit of EUR 1.1 million resulting from a reversal of impairment.

Bovine slaughtering enters a new era

Europe's most modern bovine slaughterhouse and cutting plant, which was fully opened in 2013, takes Atria's bovine slaughtering to a whole new level. This EUR 26 million investment has improved productivity per kilogram of beef. Concentrating production in Kauhajoki has also raised the productivity of the entire Atria beef chain.

Feed capacity

A new poultry feed plant was completed in Koskenkorva with a production capacity of around 100 million kilograms a year. This EUR 15 million investment is located on the same site as A-Rehu's pig and cattle feed production. A-Rehu's production capacity in Koskenkorva will increase to approximately 240 million kilograms a year. The poultry feed plant, which is the result of cooperation between producers and A-Rehu, ensures that Finland will continue to have domestically-owned feed production in the future.

Modernisation of the chicken hatchery

Machinery and equipment investments worth around EUR 6 million were deployed at the Seinäjoki chicken hatchery. They improved Atria's delivery capacity, as consumer demand rose at an annual rate of about 4%.¹

The meat volumes processed by Atria increased by a total of 4 million kilograms to 153 million kilograms. The volumes of processed chicken grew most by 4 million kilograms. Procurement volumes for pork rose by 1 million kilograms. The volumes of processed beef decreased by 1 million kilograms. Atria is Finland's leading pork and beef processor.

High-Quality Atria production development programme

Atria launched a three-phase production development programme extending to 2015. In the first and second phases, improvements will be made in the quality of operations and product quality, respectively. The third phase will aim to achieve higher productivity in a sustainable manner. The project will be implemented through individual projects and initiatives.

"Atria's productivity and efficiency will be of primary importance."

In 2013, Atria Finland was able to consolidate its market position and grow more rapidly than the market: more than eight per cent measured by net sales, or around EUR 67 million. Do you believe growth will be as rapid in 2014, Mika Ala-Fossi?

It's hard to say anything about the rate, but we will certainly grow. The net sales of the operations acquired from Saarioinen alone are in the region of EUR 70 million. The bovine slaughterhouse investment in Kauhajoki enables Atria to increase its production capacity well into the future. The new poultry fodder plant in Koskenkorva will increase A-Rehu's aggregate production capacity by more than 70 per cent. I would also say that the Atria brand's core promise – its commitment to domestic meat – will also accelerate our growth. It's a strong promise and one that the Finnish consumer trusts.

We have growth drivers, but on the other hand, there are also major challenges for growth. The biggest question mark is the development of Finns' purchasing power and sales prices. If the economy continues to be sluggish, competition over shelf space will surely be fierce – also with regard to inexpensive products.

"A commitment to domestic meat is a strong promise – one that the Finnish consumer trusts."

Profitability remained reasonable: the EBIT percentage was 3.7, generating a profit of around EUR 33 million. What are the means or tools that will help you to get closer to the Group's shared target level of five per cent?

If price competition in the market intensifies further, we will need to work hard to achieve even satisfactory results. Then again, we are used to this. In addition to consumer prices, profitability will depend on the costs of primary production and on our own actions. Atria's productivity and efficiency in everything we do will be of primary importance. This will determine our price

competitiveness.

Atria is rather competitive, and I would say we are going to see further improvement thanks to the new investments. Now we must ensure that these investments are exploited to the full as quickly as possible and that the efficiency improvements of old processes continue according to plan. It is also extremely important that the operations acquired from Saarioinen are integrated into Atria quickly and smoothly.

In 2013, Atria Scandinavia was able to slightly increase its net sales, although the market did not recover and the share of private labels grew markedly in Sweden. What are the growth prospects for 2014, Tomas Back?

We expect the markets in Sweden and Denmark to remain fairly stable compared to the previous year. Both markets are projected to grow marginally, but the market share of private labels will strengthen further. Despite this, we aim to grow, both by selling our own brands and through private label products.

Profitability improved substantially. EBIT without non-recurring items grew to EUR 13.2 million, or 3.3 per cent of net sales. What do you think are the possibilities of profitability continuing to improve in 2014?

We are satisfied with the development of our profitability in the second half of 2013 and we aim at benefitting from this good trend also in 2014. However, the precondition for this is that the price of meat raw material remains stable. Our sales structure will be slightly weaker, as private label volumes will grow. On the other hand, we have implemented significant efficiency improvement measures that will improve our cost structure.

Business environment

Europe's largest and fastest-growing consumer goods retail market. The market for processed meat in Moscow is worth around EUR 1.5 billion and the market in St Petersburg is worth over EUR 0.5 billion.
Russia's consumer goods retail market is the most fragmented in Europe: modern retail is growing and developing, consolidation in the retail market continues.
Despite major investments in domestic primary production, Russia is a significant net importer of meat.
Russia became a member of the WTO in 2012. Customs tariffs for meat products are due to decrease from 20% to around 7% by 2015.
Consolidation of the meat processing industry is in its early days. Atria is the largest international player in the sector.

GROWTH AND PROFITABILITY IN 2013

Net sales in euros decreased

Atria Russia's net sales decreased by EUR 4.8 million to EUR 121.5 million. However, net sales in roubles rose by 2.2%. Atria grew by maintaining its significant market share in St Petersburg among the most important consumer goods retailers. Sales in Moscow were lower than the year before due to the elimination of several unprofitable product groups.

EBIT increased

EBIT amounted to EUR -21.0 million due to major non-recurring items totalling EUR 17.4 million. EBIT without these items was EUR -3.6 million, showing an increase of EUR 5 million year-on-year. Operative EBIT improved owing to increased profitability. Operative EBIT remained negative due to the unprofitability of pork production.

Write-downs

Atria Russia discontinued its unprofitable pork production and decided to run down the Moscow plant and logistics centre by the end of 2014. As a result, the company recognised non-recurring costs of EUR 25.0 million in total, of which EUR 17.4 million was allocated to EBIT.

GDP growth

Russia's GDP grew by only 1.3% instead of the projected 3.5%. This was mainly due to decelerating industrial growth rather than reduced consumption.¹)

Market share in St Petersburg

The market share of Atria Russia's product groups in St Petersburg's consumer goods retail chains is around 20%. The Pit-Product brand has been an established market leader in sausage product groups for more than 10 years. Its market share in St Petersburg is almost 50%.¹)

Several new players entered this growing market in 2013. Pit-Product focused its investments on new products, where price competition is less intense.

Market share in Moscow

Atria's main brand in Moscow is CampoMos, whose growth has been slow due to the elimination of product groups. The brand's strongest product groups are convenience foods, such as pizzas, and frankfurters. In 2013, the company also successfully launched new cold cuts for large retail chains.

Investments in CampoMos

Although Atria Russia decided to discontinue production in Moscow, it will continue to systematically develop the CampoMos brand. Moscow and its suburbs have a population of around 15 million people, which is three times as large as that of St Petersburg. Besides Moscow, the CampoMos product groups are marketed in other cities.

EUR 9.5 mill.

Savings since 2013

The profitability of Atria Russia's meat product operations has improved significantly since 2011–2012, when production was streamlined and centralised to modern Gorelovo plant in St Petersburg. The Sinyavino plant in St Petersburg specialised in the production of cured sausages. Since 2013, these measures have generated cost savings of approximately EUR 9.5 million.

EUR 6.0 mill.

Savings from 2015

The discontinuation of pork production at Campofarm and the running down of the Campomos plant and logistics centre by the end of 2014 are estimated to generate annual savings of around EUR 6 million compared to 2013. These savings will be realised from the beginning of 2015.

EUR +4.6 mill.

Investments in Gorelovo

When the decision to shut down the Campomos plant was made, it was also decided that pizza production would be transferred to the Gorelovo plant in St Petersburg. Machinery and equipment investments worth EUR 4.6 million will be made there.

Personal productivity

The capacity of Atria Russia's Gorelovo plant is about 130 tonnes of meat products per day, and it is the most highly automated meat product plant in Russia. A logistics centre is located next to the plant. The plant's productivity has been boosted by an extensive Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) programme, thanks to which personal productivity improved by more than 20% in 2013. The Gorelovo plant is also the only meat processing plant in Russia that has been awarded FSSC 22000 (Food Safety System Certification).

"A basis for positive performance does exist."

Atria Russia's growth came to a halt in 2012 when the company eliminated a large number of its unprofitable products, particularly in the Moscow market. Are Atria's product groups and distribution channels ready for growth in 2014, Jarmo Lindholm?

Our main objective for 2014 is to achieve profitable growth. To this end, we will focus our efforts on three growth segments: the cold cuts and convenience food product groups and the Sibylla business.

The cold cuts market in Russia is significant in terms of its value, and it offers good opportunities for growth. The market for fresh convenience food is undeveloped, but expanding it in collaboration with customers presents a huge opportunity. The eating habits of the growing middle class are rapidly changing, similarly to the rest of Europe. Our Sibylla business has grown strongly in recent years, and we expect this growth to continue.

Uncertain economic conditions and the potential weakening of the Russian rouble may lead to higher prices and reduce general consumer demand. This would also have a direct negative impact on Atria's growth. Another source of uncertainty is the changing restrictions for the import of meat, import duties and other regulations, which may cause temporary market disruptions.

Atria discontinued its unprofitable pork production and planned to shut down the Moscow plant by the year 2014. Does this create a basis for sustainable, positive performance in the future?

Structurally speaking, yes. A basis for sustainable, positive performance does exist. However, I would like to point out that the positive impact of the cost benefits of the latest structural solutions will not be fully felt in our results until 2015.

The operations of the Gorelovo plant are currently efficient, and as volumes grow, we will be able to put this production plant into full use and make it profitable.

Trends in the Russian economy and the consumer goods retail market create uncertainty regarding our performance. If these trends take a downward turn, this will have a direct impact on the consumption of our product groups. The percentage of income spent on

GROWTH AND PROFITABILITY IN 2013

Net sales decreased

Atria Baltic's net sales decreased by EUR 1.3 million to EUR 32.9 million. This was mainly the result of Atria's decision to reduce the sale of unprocessed meat, such as whole carcasses. Their price has fallen due to pressure from cheap imported meat. During the summer barbecue season, Atria's sales rose and its market position strengthened.

EBIT increased

EBIT increased by EUR 1.6 million to EUR 0.1 million with presenting 0.2% of net sales. Profitability increased due to the modified cost structure, achieved through efficiency improvement measures, as well as a more favourable sales structure. Atria shifted its sales focus to products with a higher degree of processing.

"We revised the sales structure."

Atria Baltic's EBIT has remained roughly the same for the last three years. Are there any changes in sight in the Estonian market or in Atria's sales that could return the company to growth, Olle Horm?

Accelerating growth in Estonia's current economic climate is very challenging. Economic growth slowed and practically came to a halt at the end of the year. Growth in meat market volumes is minimal and price competition is fierce. Our position is weakened by cheap imported meat. Of course, we aim to boost our growth by consolidating our market position. We are focusing our efforts on sales in the summer season, in which we were highly successful last year.

An upward trend was seen in profitability, and Atria Baltic's EBIT was positive. How are you going to ensure that this trend will continue in 2014?

Last year was a year of changes. In addition to changes in and reductions of personnel, we transferred the operations of the Tartu warehouse to the main production plant in Valga and cut down the number of meat sales outlets. As a result of these measures, our cost structure became lighter. We also revised the sales structure. For example, we reduced the sale of pig carcasses and concentrated on products with a higher degree of processing. Nevertheless, pork production plays a key role in Atria's operations, since we are Estonia's second largest pork producer. Consequently, the prices of cereals and feed have a major impact on our performance.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT 2013 • 31

Atria Group's net sales increased – Atria Russia's restructuring weighed down performance

Atria's most significant restructuring operations and development programmes according to the strategy were completed in 2013. They have created a strong basis for the development and growth of Atria's operations and the improvement of its profitability in the future.

Atria Group's strategy

With its strategy, Atria Group strives to improve profitability, boost growth and increase the company's value. Atria aims to be the market leader or a strong number two in the Group's core operations, which include cold cuts and processed meat products.

Atria is also aiming at the top in local core operations, such as the poultry and convenience food industry, Atria Deli and Sibylla operations, selected Private Label product groups, consumer-packed meat, and slaughtering and cutting operations.

Atria will implement the strategy by developing the following three different dimensions: commercial excellence, efficiency and the way of work. The development areas are the same for all business areas.

Commercial excellence is a prerequisite to reach the top in the purchase decisions of consumers and customers, and it can be achieved by managing product groups under their guidance. The main objective of product group management is to increase the size of the market.

Being an industrial group, it is important to Atria that productivity, factory utilisation rates, raw material utilisation and operations management be in order. Operational efficiency ensures profitability.

The construction of a more harmonised and stronger Atria requires a common operational culture, values and principles. In 2013, Atria defined the Atria Way of Work, which was summarised into four main points:

We focus on consumers and customers
We are hungry for success
We deliver quality
We enjoy our work

Atria's financial targets are:

EBIT: 5%
Equity ratio: 40%
Return on equity: 8%
Dividend distribution of profit from period: 50%

FINANCIAL STATEMENT 2013 • 32

Atria’s Handprint programme develops corporate responsibility multidimensionally

Atria’s corporate responsibility projects were taken forward in Atria’s Handprint programme. At Atria Finland and Atria Scandinavia, the Handprint projects focus on the environment, animal welfare, product safety, nutrition, personnel and communications.

One of the most important development areas at Atria Finland was the provision of information about traceability all the way to the farm to consumers. Atria launched an extensive communications campaign, with a view to strengthening Atria brand image as a truly domestic. The campaign has focused on Finnish meat farmers and the importance of the origin of meat.

Atria Scandinavia’s Handprint programme also focused on meat raw material traceability. The company continued to develop procedures related to meat procurement in order to verify the origin and traceability of meat.

At Atria Baltic, the focus has been on developing the nutritional content of products and special attention has been paid to reducing the amount of salt and fat. At Atria Russia, the Handprint programme has focused on developing personnel know-how, product safety management systems and product quality consistency.

In the accounting period, the Group had about 50 ongoing corporate responsibility projects, including the following:

Expansion of the product safety certificates for production plants
Atria Way of Work – Atria Group’s shared practices
Additive-free products
Development of traceability all the way to the farm and strengthening of communications
Quality responsibility (Laatuvastuu) – the new national quality system for pork production in Finland

A separate corporate responsibility report was published as part of Atria’s Handprint programme during the accounting period.

Financial review

Atria Group’s net sales for the year totalled EUR 1,411.0 million (EUR 1,343.6 million), up by EUR 67.4 million year-on-year. Due to non-recurring costs, consolidated EBIT weakened by EUR 10.5 million compared to the previous year, standing at EUR 19.7 million (EUR 30.2 million). EBIT without non-recurring items amounted to EUR 37.0 million (EUR 30.7 million).

Atria recognised EUR 25.0 million of non-recurring costs for its Russian operations, EUR 17.4 million of which was allocated to EBIT. An impairment of EUR 1.0 million was recognised for Atria Scandinavia’s operations due to sold property. A non-recurring profit of EUR 1.1 million resulting from the reversal of an impairment charge on property that had been for sale was recognised in Finland.

In March, Atria issued a fixed-interest bond worth EUR 50 million. The funds were used for refinancing and for the Group’s general financing needs. The loan period is five years and a coupon rate of 4.375 per cent is payable on the loan. The bonds are publicly traded on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd stock exchange.

The Group’s free cash flow for the period under review (operating cash flow - cash flow from investments) was EUR 54.1 million (EUR 49.7 million), and net debt was EUR 305.9 million (EUR 363.9 million).

Atria Finland’s net sales for the year totalled EUR 886.8 million (EUR 819.5 million), up by EUR 67.3 million year-on-year. EBIT amounted to EUR 32.9 million (EUR 36.5 million). EBIT includes a non-recurring profit of EUR 1.1 million resulting from the reversal of an impairment charge on property that had been for sale in Forssa. Full-year net sales increased in all sales channels, and growth was particularly strong in the retail sector. EBIT was weighed down by deteriorating market conditions at the end of the year, the higher price of meat raw material compared to the previous year and persistently low export prices for meat.

Report by the Board of Directors 1 Jan–31 Dec 2013
FINANCIAL STATEMENT 2013 • 33

Atria Scandinavia's net sales for the year totalled EUR 395.0 million (EUR 387.8 million), up by EUR 7.2 million year-on-year. In local currencies, net sales grew by 1.8 per cent year-on-year. EBIT amounted to EUR 12.2 million (EUR 8.2 million). EBIT includes non-recurring costs of EUR 1.0 million resulting from the impairment of the sold property. EBIT improved due to marketing efforts at the beginning of the year and the improved sales structure towards the end of the year, along with more stable meat raw material prices.

Atria Russia's net sales for the year amounted to EUR 121.5 million (EUR 126.3 million). In the local currency, net sales grew by 2.2 per cent year-on-year. EBIT was EUR -21.0 million (EUR -8.6 million). Atria decided to discontinue primary production in Russia and industrial operations in Moscow, concentrating the latter in St Petersburg. As a result of these arrangements, Atria Russia recognised a total of EUR 25.0 million of non-recurring costs, EUR 17.4 million of which was allocated to EBIT and EUR 7.6 million to deferred tax assets. EBIT without non-recurring costs amounted to EUR -3.6 million (EUR -8.6 million). The results of industrial operations improved, but EBIT without non-recurring costs was negative due to the poor profitability of primary production. It is estimated that the discontinuation of primary production and the Moscow-based production operations will generate annual cost savings of about EUR 6 million compared to 2013. The cost savings will be fully realised as of the beginning of 2015.

Atria Baltic's net sales for the year totalled EUR 32.9 million (EUR 34.2 million), representing a fall of EUR 1.3 million year-on-year. EBIT was EUR 0.1 million (EUR -1.5 million), up by EUR 1.6 million year-on-year. The positive performance was due to the improved sales structure and the cost savings resulting from efficiency improvement measures.

Events after the period under review

Atria Plc and Saarioinen Oy signed a preliminary agreement in July under which Atria will purchase Saarioinen's procurement, slaughtering and cutting operations for beef, pork and chicken. In conjunction with the deal, Atria and Saarioinen signed an agreement concerning meat deliveries from Atria to Saarioinen. The operations covered by the deal employ about 400 people on average. As a result of the deal, Atria's net sales are projected to grow by around EUR 70 million per year. On 21 January 2014, the Finnish Competition and Consumer Authority announced its approval of the acquisition. The operations were consolidated into Atria as of 1 February 2014. The purchase price was approximately EUR 30 million, and it was paid using cash funds and borrowed capital. The acquisition had no material effect on the Group's key figures.

Atria Plc's Board of Directors has announced that it will propose to the Annual General Meeting that the company's Articles of Association be amended so that the maximum number of members of the Board of Directors shall be increased by two. In the future, the Board of Directors will therefore consist of no fewer than five and no more than nine members (the current maximum number of members is seven).

Research and development

Atria Group's research and development activities focus on researching consumer behaviour and market data in all of the Group's business areas. In addition, Atria participates in applied research in the areas of product and packaging technology and food science.

Atria Finland launched 160 new products in the consumer goods and Food Service markets in 2013. The most important new products were the Family Farm additive-free poultry products, oriental microwave products and summer grill products in general. Products traceable all the way to the farm, such as the Atria farm-labelled Christmas hams and the Atria Family Farm fillet nuggets, also played a major role. These new products accounted for about 10 per cent of total sales (retail and Food Service) in Finland.

Atria Scandinavia launched 118 new products across all product groups. Examples of successful launches:

Oskar Lithells Finaste – the new Lithells meal sausage concept
Pulled Pork – the new Sibylla product group

Financing and liquidity

Slow economic growth and low inflation in Europe have kept both short-term Euribor interest rates and long-term interest rates at historically low levels. Liquidity in the financial markets remained good, loan periods normalised and, on average, there was no longer any pressure to increase corporate financing margins. However, the differences in margins between different companies grew due to the increasingly high importance of the companies' creditworthiness in the pricing of financing. As in the previous year, large companies acquired extensive long-term financing through bonds.

In March, Atria Plc issued a EUR 50 million bond with fixed interest rate and a loan period of five years. The funds were used to refinance a EUR 40 million bond matured in July as well as for the Group's general financing needs. During the past year, the company refinanced committed credit limits amounting to EUR 140 million and reduced the amount of committed credit limits from EUR 240 million to EUR 190 million. New financing agreements were used to secure a sufficiently long average maturity for the loan portfolio. Short-term funding was acquired mainly through commercial papers. The Group's liquidity remained good; to ensure liquidity at all times, Atria had an average of EUR 168 million of unused committed credit lines during the year.

At the end of the accounting period (31 December 2013), fixed interest debts accounted for 55.3% (49.8%) of the Group's liabilities.

Risk management at Atria

Atria's business is exposed to a variety of external and internal risks, whose effects on the results may be negative or positive. The purpose of Atria's proactive risk management activities, implemented consistently across the Group, is to support the execution of Atria's strategy and the achievement of targets, as well as to secure business continuity if the risks are realised.

Atria's risk management operations are guided by the Risk Management Policy, which has been approved by the Board of Directors, and its harmonised operating models for risk assessment and reporting. Risk management is applied to identify, assess and manage factors that jeopardise the attainment of goals. A risk assessment in accordance with the risk management policy is implemented yearly in all business areas and Group operations. The significance of a risk is assessed as a combination of the event's probability and financial effect. The most significant risks observed are prioritised throughout the Group and reported to the Board of Directors. The Management Teams of the business areas and the Group Management Team are responsible for implementing the required risk treatment actions in their respective areas of responsibility.

The profitability of Atria's business is greatly affected by the global risk associated with changes in the market price of meat raw material. This risk is managed by means of centralised control of meat purchasing, raw material price variation clauses in sales contracts and proactive pricing of end products. The Group applies a uniform currency risk policy to hedge against currency risks relating to raw material procurement. The Group makes active use of currency derivatives, particularly in order to hedge foreign currency-denominated material purchases in Sweden against currency risks.

Products sold under the Atria brand in Finland are manufactured using only Finnish meat. Consequently, changes in the production volumes and availability of Finnish meat raw material may affect Atria Finland's profitability in the long run. During the past year, Atria made significant improvements to meat raw material procurement control in Finland.

In Atria Russia's operations, changing restrictions and import duties on meat and other regulations are characteristic of the market. To manage this risk, Atria Russia strives to raise the share of local suppliers. In the short term, the sharp weakening of the Russian rouble may lead to an increase in raw material prices. It is impossible for Atria to immediately pass on higher raw material costs to sales prices. Furthermore, rising prices may affect consumer demand.

Retail trade in the food industry is highly centralized in all of Atria's key markets, which creates opportunities to build diverse forms of cooperation over the long term. On the other hand, this increases dependence on individual customers. Atria's strong market position, efficient industrial processes and well-known brands improve its negotiating position.

Report by the Board of Directors 1 Jan–31 Dec 2013
FINANCIAL STATEMENT 2013 • 36

As a food manufacturing company, Atria's priority is to ensure the high quality and safety of raw materials and products throughout the production chain. Atria has modern methods in place to ensure the safety of production processes and to eliminate various microbiological, chemical and physical hazards. An animal disease discovered at a critical point in Atria's production chain could interrupt production in the unit concerned and disrupt the entire chain's operations. Internal monitoring involving multiple stages is applied to detect potential hazards as early as possible.

The economic downturn increases the risk of weakening liquidity and credit losses among Atria's customers. As a result of more efficient credit control, no significant credit losses were incurred. A significant proportion of Atria's trade receivables in Finland are related to animal and feed trading in primary production. The profitability of agricultural production and producers' liquidity may be reduced especially by sharp changes in the price of meat and inputs and changes in the agricultural subsidy programs.

Significant changes in energy costs, such as electricity and gas prices, may affect Atria's profitability. Atria uses derivatives to hedge against unfavourable changes in accordance with its hedging policy.

Low temperatures and repetitive movements are characteristic of work performed within the food industry. The work is often physically demanding and requires the use of cutting machines and tools, which increases the risk of accidents at work. Atria aims to prevent occupational accidents, disease risks and related costs by investing significantly in safety at work and the continuous improvement of work methods and tools.

Atria has 17 production plants in Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Estonia and Russia. All of these are insured against material damage and business interruptions through the Group's insurance programmes. Efforts are made to manage risks that threaten operational continuity also through continuity planning.

Atria manages its financial risks in accordance with the treasury policy approved by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has delegated the application and implementation of the financing policy and the management of financing risks to the Group's Treasury unit, which consists of the CEO, CFO, Director of Atria Scandinavia, Group Controller and Treasurer. The practical management of financial risks is the responsibility of the Group's Treasury. The aim of the Group's financial risk management is to reduce the effect on earnings, the balance sheet and cash flow due to price fluctuations on the financial markets and other uncertainty factors, and to ensure sufficient liquidity. The main risks related to financing are interest rate risk, currency risk, liquidity and refinancing risk and credit risk. Atria's financial risk management is discussed in more detail in the notes to the financial statements in note 28.

Incentive plans for management and key personnel

Long-term incentive plan

Atria's long-term incentive plan has three 12-month periods: 2012, 2013 and 2014. The earning period for the plan ends on 31 December 2014. The compensation earned in an earning period is determined after the period is over based on progress against set targets. The plan offers an opportunity to earn cash rewards for reaching targets established for the relevant earning period. Any profit from the plan is based on the Group's earnings per share (EPS). The plan covers approximately 40 of Atria Group's key personnel.

Short-term incentive plan

The maximum amount of merit pay for Atria Plc's CEO and the Management Team is 35%–50% of the annual salary, depending on the effect on the results and the level of competence required to perform the duties. The criteria in Atria Plc's merit pay scheme are the performance requirements and working capital at Group level and in the area of responsibility of the person concerned. In addition to the CEO, Deputy CEO and Management Team, Atria Plc's merit pay scheme covers approximately 40 Group executives.

Environmental responsibility

The well-being of the environment is essential to the operations of Atria and the food industry as a whole. Atria Group's environmental responsibility is built around three main elements:

Taking the environment into consideration at all operational levels
Identifying the indirect environmental impact of various stages of the operating chain
Reducing the direct environmental impact of operations.

The key environmental aspects that Atria can influence through its operations are energy and water consumption, wastewater load and waste prevention. Transport and primary production have a significant indirect impact on the environment. We are well aware of the environmental impacts of primary production. Therefore, we encourage primary production operators to engage in eco-efficient operations and to commit to the conditions of the EU environmental subsidies. As regards transport, we monitor fuel consumption and the European emission standards for vehicles, which indicate the level of hazardous emissions released by the engine.

Environmental management at Atria is based on environmental legislation and the fulfilment of stakeholder expectations. Environmental management at Atria Finland and, to some extent, at Atria Scandinavia is based on an environmental management system certified in compliance with the ISO 14001 standard. In other business areas, the company strives to achieve a corresponding level of environmental management. Environmental solutions are developed in collaboration with local environmental groups and through networking with the best experts in the area. In Finland, Atria has a representative on the Environmental Committee of the Finnish Food and Drink Industries' Federation.

Key results, environmental responsibility

Goals 2012–2014	Results 2013
• Managing direct environmental impacts.
• Identifying environmental impacts throughout the production chain and promoting eco-efficiency.	• Enhanced consumption of utilities in proportion to production. At Atria Finland, energy efficiency improved by 8%.

Energy consumption

In the food industry, energy is needed to heat and cool premises, for production-related heating and cooling processes and to maintain material flows and the cold chain. In the period under review, total energy consumption decreased by three per cent and consumption in relation to the kilograms produced decreased by eight per cent.

WATER CONSUMPTION, m³

Water consumption

The food industry uses large amounts of water, partly to uphold production hygiene. In addition to frequent washing of premises, water is also needed as a processing aid, for instance, in product cooling. Atria Finland's water consumption increased by eight per cent in the period under review. In the other business areas of the Group, water consumption remained stable.

Atria strives to minimise the environmental impact of groundwater consumption in cooperation with local utilities by increasing the use of surface water as needed and by levelling off consumption peaks using a variety of technical solutions.

Wastewater

The volume of wastewater generated by Atria corresponds to its water consumption. At the larger production sites, Atria pre-treats its effluents before flushing them into the municipal sewage network. Plant-specific environmental permits determine the target values for wastewater quality. The plants monitor compliance with the target values carefully. The BOD7 load of Atria Finland's effluents increased slightly in the period under review. As BOD7 values are not measured in the Atria Scandinavia and Atria Estonia business areas, their load has been estimated in reporting on the basis of loads generated by similar facilities.

Food production waste and by-products

The by-products of food production are carefully utilised. About 98 per cent of the by-products of Atria's core operations are channelled to reuse. The market price of raw materials and local infrastructure play a key role in the eventual destination of by-products. The prevention of waste generated in the product lifecycle is greatly influenced by the choice of packaging.

Atria Finland

Atria Finland’s environmental management is handled by a steering group that works under the Management Team and is in charge of planning and monitoring environmental management. The steering group has representatives from production, product and packaging development and support. The composition of the group ensures that management encompasses all of the areas in which Atria can control its environmental impact. The group addresses changes in legislation and stakeholder groups, analyses the results achieved in the previous year, discusses the investments required and sets targets for the upcoming period.

The key objective in the environmental strategy period is to support business through a controlled use of natural resources. The objectives have been adapted to fit changes in the business environment, of which the most significant continue to be the advancement of energy efficiency and the prevention of waste generation.

Outlook for 2014

In 2013, consolidated EBIT without non-recurring costs was EUR 37.0 million. In 2014, it is projected to be higher. Net sales are expected to grow in 2014.

Flagging notifications

Atria Plc did not receive any flagging notifications in 2013.

Atria Plc’s share capital

The breakdown of the parent company’s share capital is as follows:

Series A shares	(1 vote/share)	19,063,747 pcs
Series KII shares	(10 vote/share)	9,203,981 pcs

Series A shares have preference for a dividend of €0.17, after which Series KII shares are paid a dividend of up to €0.17. If dividend funds remain after this, Series A and Series KII shares entitle their holders to an equal right to a dividend.

Atria’s Articles of Association include a pre-emptive purchase clause concerning KII shares. If Series KII shares are transferred to a party outside the company or to a shareholder within the company who has not previously owned Series KII shares, the proposed recipient of the shares must inform the Board of Directors without delay, and Series KII shareholders have the right to pre-emptively purchase the shares under certain conditions. In addition, the acquisition of Series KII shares by means of transfer requires approval by the company. Series A shares have no such limitations.

Valid authorisations to purchase or issue shares and to grant special rights

The General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide, on one or several occasions, on the acquisition of a maximum of 2,800,000 of the company's own A shares with funds belonging to the company's unrestricted equity, subject to the provisions of the Limited Liability Companies Act regarding the maximum number of treasury shares to be held by a company. The company's own A shares may be acquired for use as consideration in any acquisitions or other arrangements relating to the company's business, to finance investments, as part of the company's incentive scheme, to develop the company's capital structure, to be otherwise further transferred, to be retained by the company or to be cancelled.

The shares shall be acquired in a proportion other than that of the shareholders' current shareholdings in the company in public trading arranged by NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd, at the trading price at the moment of acquisition. The shares shall be acquired and paid for in accordance with the rules of NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd and Euroclear Finland Oy. The Board of Directors is authorised to decide on the acquisition of treasury shares in all other respects.

The authorisation shall supersede the authorisation granted by the Annual General Meeting on 3 May 2012 to the Board of Directors to decide on the acquisition of the company's own shares and be valid until the closing of the next Annual General Meeting or until 30 June 2014, whichever is first.

The General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide, on one or several occasions, on an issue of a maximum of 12,800,000 new A shares or on an issue of any A shares held by the company through a share issue and/or by granting option rights or other special rights entitling holders to shares as referred to in Chapter 10, section 1 of the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act. The authorisation may be exercised to finance or execute any acquisitions or other arrangements or investments related to the company's business, to implement the company's incentive plan or for other purposes subject to the Board's decision.

The Board of Directors is also authorised to decide on all terms and conditions of the share issue and of the granting of special rights as referred to in Chapter 10, section 1 of the Limited Liability Companies Act. The authorisation thus also includes the right to issue shares in a proportion other than that currently held by the shareholders under the conditions provided by law, the right to issue shares against or without payment and the right to decide on a share issue to the company itself without payment – subject to the provisions of the Limited Liability Companies Act regarding the maximum number of treasury shares to be held by a company.

The authorisation shall supersede the share issue authorisation granted by the Annual General Meeting on 3 May 2012 to the Board of Directors and be valid until the closing of the next Annual General Meeting or until 30 June 2014, whichever is first.

Board of Directors' proposal for profit distribution

The parent company's shareholders' equity on 31 December 2013 comprises the invested unrestricted equity fund of EUR 110,227,500.00, treasury share fund of EUR -1,277,443.82 and profits of EUR 64,694,512.06, of which loss for the period totals EUR 24,107,481.28.

The Board of Directors proposes to the General Meeting that retained earnings be used as follows:

A dividend of EUR 0.22/share be paid, totalling EUR 6,194,411.52
To be retained as shareholders' equity, EUR 58,500,100.54

64,694,512.06

No significant changes have occurred in the company's financial position since the end of the accounting period. The company's liquidity is good and, according to the Board of Directors, the proposed dividend does not compromise the company's solvency.

Basic corporate information

The parent company of the Atria Group, Atria Plc, is a Finnish public company formed in accordance with Finnish law and domiciled in Kuopio, Finland. The company has been listed on Nasdaq OMX Helsinki Ltd since 1991. Copies of the consolidated financial statements are available online at www.atriagroup.com or from the parent company's head office at Itikanmäenkatu 3, Seinäjoki; postal address: P.O. Box 900, FI-60060 ATRIA.

Atria Plc and its subsidiaries manufacture and market food products, especially meat products, poultry products, meals and food concepts. Atria has established Finland, Sweden, Denmark, European Russia and the Baltic countries as its market area. Atria's subsidiaries are also located in this area. The Group's operations are divided into four business areas: Atria Finland, Atria Scandinavia, Atria Russia and Atria Baltic.

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors for publication on 12 February 2014. According to the Finnish Companies Act, the shareholders are entitled to approve or reject the financial statements in the Annual General Meeting to be held after their publication. The AGM can also make a decision to revise the financial statements.

Accounting policies

BASIS OF PREPARATION

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) endorsed by the EU. IASs and IFRSs valid on 31 December 2013 have been followed, as well as SIC and IFRIC interpretations. The IFRS refer to standards and interpretations thereof approved for application in the EU in compliance with the proceedings stipulated in Regulation (EC) 1606/2002, as referred to in the Finnish Accounting Act and subsequent regulations. The notes to the consolidated financial statements also comply with Finnish accounting and corporate legislation.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on acquisition cost basis with the exception of biological assets, available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss and derivative financial instruments. From the moment of classification, the assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their book value and fair value less cost to sell.

The financial statement data is presented in units of 1,000 euros, with sums rounded off to the nearest thousand.

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND DISCLOSURES

a) New and amended standards that have been applied in the financial period beginning on 1 January 2013

Amendment to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. The main change is the requirement to group items presented in other comprehensive income according to whether or not they will be reclassified to profit or loss in the future when specific conditions are met.
Amendment to IAS 19 Employee Benefits. The amendment eliminated the corridor approach, and finance costs are now calculated on a net funding basis. All actuarial gains and losses must be recognised in other comprehensive income as they occur. The amendment had no impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.
Amendment to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The amendment, related to the offsetting of assets and liabilities, increases disclosure requirements, with a view to improving comparability between financial statements prepared under IFRS and US GAAP. The amendment had no impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement. The objective of this new standard is to increase consistency in fair value measurement and set out requirements for new disclosures when another IFRS requires or permits fair value measurement. According to the standard, fair value is the price that would be received for the sale of an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Annual improvements 2011. The improvements released as a result of the 2009–2011 cycle led to amendments to the following standards: IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements, IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment, IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The amendments had no material impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.

b) New standards and interpretations that have been released but will not become effective until after 1 January 2013.

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014). The objective is to define the principles regarding the preparation and presentation of consolidated financial statements when an entity controls one or more other entities. The principles related to control are specified, and it is defined that consolidation is required if control exists. It sets out how to apply the principle of control to identify whether an investor controls an investee and therefore must consolidate the investee. The standard also sets out the requirements for the preparation of consolidated financial statements. The standard will have no material impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014). IFRS 11 will provide for a more realistic reflection of joint arrangements. It will focus on the rights and obligations of the arrangement and not on its legal form. There are two categories of joint arrangements: joint operations and joint ventures. The parties to a joint operation have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement, and both account in their own financial statements for their share in the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. In a joint venture, the parties have rights to the net assets of the arrangement and they account for their share using the equity method. Relative consolidation of joint ventures is no longer permissible. The standard will have no material impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014). IFRS 12 sets out the disclosure requirements for all forms of interests in other entities. It applies to joint arrangements, associates, investment vehicles created for specific purposes and other off-balance-sheet vehicles. The standard will have no material impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.
Amendment to IFRS 10, 11 and 12 regarding transition guidance (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014). The amendment provides transition relief in IFRS 10, 11 and 12, limiting the requirement for adjusted comparative information to one financial period. Comparative information on unconsolidated structured entities does not need to be presented for periods before IFRS 12 is first applied.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 52

IAS 27 (revised in 2011) Separate Financial Statements (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014). The revised standard contains the requirements for separate financial statements. The standard will have no material impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.
IAS 28 (revised in 2011) Investments in associates and joint ventures (effective from 1 January 2014). The revised standard contains requirements regarding the accounting for investments in associates and joint ventures. Following the release of IFRS 11, the equity method will be applied to both types of investments. The standard will have no material impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.
Amendment to IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation, concerning the offsetting of assets and liabilities (effective from 1 January 2014). The amendments are related to the application guidelines for IAS 32. They clarify specific requirements related to the offsetting of financial assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. The standard will have no material impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.
Amendment to IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, regarding recoverable amount disclosures for non-financial assets (effective from 1 January 2014). The amendment concerns recoverable amount disclosures for impaired assets whose value is based on fair value less costs of disposal. The standard will have no material impact on Atria's consolidated statements.
Amendment to IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, regarding novation of derivatives (effective from 1 January 2014). The amendment allows the continuation of hedge accounting when a derivative is novated to a clearing counterparty and certain conditions are met. The standard will have no material impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.
Amendment to IAS 19 Employee Benefits, Defined Benefit Plans: Employee Contributions (effective from 1 July 2014, not endorsed by the EU). The amendment allows employee contributions that are linked to service and whose amount is independent of the number of years of service to be recognised as a reduction in the service cost in the period in which the related service is rendered. The standard will have no material impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (effective date still unknown). This is part of a more extensive project to replace IAS 39 with a new standard. Different valuation bases are maintained, but they are simplified by imposing two valuation categories for financial assets: amortised cost and fair value. The classification depends on the entity's business model and the characteristics of the cash flows of the financial asset. New hedge accounting requirements will bring hedge accounting closer to risk management activities. In addition, the requirements for hedge effectiveness testing have been reduced. The guidelines in IAS 39 regarding the impairment of financial assets remain effective. The standard has not been given EU approval yet. The impact of this unfinished standard on Atria's consolidated financial statements cannot be estimated at this point.
Annual improvements 2010–2012. The improvements released as a result of the 2010–2012 cycle will lead to amendments to the following standards: IFRS 2 Share-based Payment, IFRS 3 Business Combinations, IFRS 8 Operating Segments, IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement, IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment, IAS 38 Intangible Assets and IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures. According to the Group's estimate, the amendments will have no material impact on Atria's consolidated financial statements.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES CALLING FOR JUDGMENTS BY THE MANAGEMENT AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

When preparing the financial statements, discretion must be used in applying the accounting policies. In addition, the management must make assessments and assumptions concerning the future and affecting assets and debts in relation to responsibilities, profits and costs. The realised values may deviate from the original assessments and assumptions.

Key discretionary decisions when applying the accounting policies:

The Group management must make discretionary decisions regarding the choice and application of accounting policies. This, in particular, applies to cases where the IFRS practice in force contains alternative recognition, measurement or presentation procedures. The management has exercised judgment in the classification of assets and financial items and in the recognition of deferred tax assets and reserves.

Key accounting assessments and assumptions:

The assessments are based on the management's best estimate at the end date of the reporting period. They are affected by previous experiences as well as assumptions about the future that are deemed the most likely at the end of the period and are related to the expected developments in the economic environment. Any changes in the assessments and assumptions are recognised in the accounting period in which the assessment or assumption is adjusted and in all subsequent accounting periods.

Measurement of the fair value of assets acquired in business combinations:

The assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations are valued using the fair value at the time of acquisition. In significant business combinations, the Group has used an external advisor when measuring the fair value of tangible and intangible assets. In the case of tangible assets, comparisons have been made with the market price of corresponding assets, and the assets have been estimated for impairment caused by their age, wear and other similar factors. The fair value of intangible assets is determined based on assessments of asset cash flows. The management believes that the assessments and assumptions are sufficiently detailed to be used as the basis for fair value measurement.

Impairment of assets:

The Group reviews any indication of impairment of tangible and intangible assets at least at the end date of each reporting period.

In October, Atria announced its intention to discontinue its unprofitable primary pork production in Russia. Furthermore, it was decided that the industrial production and logistics unit located in Moscow will be discontinued by the end of 2014. Due to the discontinuation of these business operations, an impairment of EUR 23.0 million was recognised in the subsidiaries' assets. Of the write-downs, EUR 14.3 million was allocated to fixed assets, EUR 7.6 million to deferred tax assets and EUR 1.1 million to other assets.

The Group conducts annual impairment tests on goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. It also assesses any indication of impairment in accordance with the accounting policies. At the end of the accounting period, the value of the intangible assets to be tested annually was EUR 233.9 million. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units are measured on the basis of value-in-use calculations. The cash flows estimated in these calculations are based on the five-year financial plans approved by the management.

No impairment losses were booked based on impairment testing in the period under review. Additional information on the recoverable amount susceptibility to changes in the assumptions used can be found in Note 14.

Accounting policies for the consolidated financial statements

Subsidiaries

The consolidated financial statements include the parent company Atria Plc and all of its subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are companies over which the Group has control. The Group is in control when it owns over half of the voting rights or otherwise has control over the company. Control refers to the right to decide on the company's financial and operating principles in order to reap benefit from its operations. Acquired subsidiaries are consolidated from the moment the Group gains control in them until said control ends.

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration paid for the acquisition of a subsidiary includes the assets transferred and the liabilities assumed, measured at fair value at the time of the acquisition. The consideration also includes the fair value of an asset or liability arising from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition costs are entered as expenses as they arise. The net assets and accepted and contingent liabilities acquired in business combinations are valued at fair value at the time of the acquisition. The interest of non-controlling owners in the acquisition target is recognised on acquisition basis either at fair value or based on their relative share of the amounts of identifiable net assets of the acquisition target.

The amount by which the sum total of paid consideration, the fair value of non-controlling owners' share in the acquisition target and the fair value of the previously held interest exceeds the fair value of the acquired net assets is recognised as goodwill in the balance sheet. If the sum total of the consideration, the fair value of non-controlling owners' share and the fair value of previously held interest is less than the fair value of the acquired net assets of the subsidiary, the difference is recognised through profit or loss.

All intra-Group transactions, receivables and liabilities and income and expenses are eliminated. Profits and losses due to intra-Group transactions leading to the recognition of an asset are also eliminated. The accounting policies applied by subsidiaries have been, where necessary, revised to match the Group policies.

The transactions conducted with non-controlling shareholders which do not lead to a loss of control are treated as equity transactions. When shares are purchased from non-controlling shareholders, the difference between the consideration paid and the book value of the share acquired of the net assets of the subsidiary is recognised in equity. Profit or loss from the sale of shares to non-controlling shareholders is also recognised in equity.

When the control or large influence by the Group ceases to exist, any remaining interest is measured at fair value on the date of the loss of control and the change in book value is recognised through profit or loss. This fair value serves as the original book value when the remaining interest is later recognised as an associate, joint venture or financial assets. In addition, the amounts of the said entity previously recognised in other comprehensive income are treated as if the Group had directly assigned the associated assets and liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously entered as other comprehensive income become accounted for through profit or loss.

ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 55

Associates

Associates are companies in which the Group has considerable influence but no control. This is usually the case when the Group holds shares which entitle it to 20–50% of the voting rights. The investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. When using the equity method, the investment is originally entered at acquisition cost and this amount is augmented or reduced by entering the investing company's share of the subsequent profits or losses of the investment object after the time of acquisition.

If the interest in an associate diminishes but a large influence remains, only a relative share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income is accounted for through profit or loss.

The Group share of associates' post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the income statement under operating profit. The book value of the investment is adjusted accordingly. If the Group's share of the loss of an associate is as great as or greater than its interest in the associate, any other unsecured receivables included, the Group will not adjust the loss up if it does not have a legal or factual obligation to do so and it has not made payments on behalf of the associate.

Joint ventures

Joint ventures are companies in which the Group and other parties exercise joint control based on an agreement. Within the Group, joint ventures are consolidated using the equity method.

Foreign currency translation

The functional and presentation currency of the parent company is the euro. The consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of euros.

Foreign currency business transactions have been translated into euros at the exchange rate on the date of transaction. Foreign currency receivables and liabilities have been translated into euros at the exchange rate on the closing date. Exchange gains and losses arising from foreign currency transactions as well as receivables and liabilities have been recognised in the income statement, excluding those exchange rate changes of derivative financial instruments that are qualifying cash flow hedges or are used to effectively protect foreign net investments and loans that are part of a net investment in a foreign operation. These translation differences have been recognised in other comprehensive income. Exchange gains and losses from operations are included in the appropriate item before operating profit. Exchange gains and losses from forward exchange agreements protecting financial transactions and foreign currency-denominated loans are included in financial income and expenses.

The profit and financial position of Group companies outside the euro zone are accounted for in the currency that is the currency of the operating region of the company in question. The income statements of Group companies outside the euro zone are translated into euros at the average exchange rate in the reporting period, and the balance sheets at the rate on the closing date. The exchange difference arising from the use of different translation rates is recognised in other comprehensive income. The translation differences arising from the elimination of the acquisition costs of subsidiaries outside the euro zone and the hedge profit deriving from the corresponding net investments are recognised in other comprehensive income. When a foreign operation is partially disposed of or sold, exchange rate differences recognised in equity are recognised through profit or loss as a sales gain or loss.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recognised at original acquisition cost, less accumulated depreciation and any impairment.

If the property, plant or equipment consists of several parts with different useful lives, each part is treated as a separate asset. In this case, the costs arising from replacing the part are activated. Otherwise, later costs are included in the book value of the property, plant and equipment only if it is probable that the future benefit connected to the asset will benefit the Group, and the acquisition cost of the asset can be reliably determined. Other repair and maintenance costs are recognised through profit or loss after they have materialised.

Depreciation is calculated as straight-line depreciation according to the estimated useful life as follows:

Buildings 25–40 years
Machinery and equipment 5–10 years
Other tangible assets 5–10 years

No depreciation is made on land and water. Assets which are not suited for recognition in other property, plant or equipment accounts due to their nature or depreciation periods are recognised as other tangible assets under Land and water, Buildings and structures, and Machinery and equipment.

The residual value and useful life of assets are reviewed annually at the closing of the accounts and, if necessary, adjusted so that the book value is equal to or less than the recoverable amount.

The depreciation of property, plant and equipment stops when the property, plant or equipment is classified as available for sale in accordance with IFRS 5, Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.

Gains and losses accumulated from the disposal or transfer of property, plant or equipment are included in other operating income or expenses.

Leases – Group as lessor:

Leases concerning tangible assets where the Group has a considerable share of the risks and rewards related to ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are entered in the balance sheet at the fair value of the leased asset on the day the lease period begins, or at a lower value that corresponds to the current value of the minimum lease payments. The depreciation of assets acquired with finance leases is made for the period of their useful life or a shorter leasing period. Lease payments are apportioned between a finance charge and debt amortisation over the lease period, so that the interest rate for the outstanding liability in each financial year remains constant. Lease obligations are included in interest-bearing debts.

Leases where the risks and rewards related to ownership remain with the lessor are handled as other leases. Rental payments due to other leases are recognised as expenses in the income statement, based on the straight-line method during the lease period.

ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 57

Intangible assets

Goodwill:

Goodwill is the amount by which the acquisition cost exceeds the Group's share of the fair value of the acquired subsidiary's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition. Goodwill arising from the acquisition of subsidiaries is recognised in intangible assets. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and entered in the balance sheet at acquisition cost less accrued impairment losses. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed.

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment. For this purpose, goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units. The Group's cash-generating units are classified by business segment based on the operations and location of subsidiaries. They are Atria Finland, Atria Scandinavia, Atria Russia and Atria Estonia. Goodwill is measured at original acquisition cost less impairment.

Other intangible assets:

Intangible assets are entered in the balance sheet at original acquisition cost if the acquisition cost of the asset can be reliably determined and if it is probable that the expected financial benefit from the asset will benefit the company.

Intangible assets with a limited useful life are recognised as expenses based on straight-line depreciation in the income statement during their known or estimated useful life. No depreciation is booked for intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, but they are instead tested annually for impairment.

Depreciation periods:

Customer relationships 3–8 years
Trademarks 5–10 years
Other intangible assets *) 5–10 years

*) Includes computer software, subscription fees etc.

Impairment of tangible and intangible assets

On each closing date, the Group reviews intangible and tangible assets to see whether they show indications of impairment. If there are such indications, the recoverable amount from the said asset is estimated. The recoverable amount of cash from goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives is assessed annually and whenever indications of impairment are detected. The recoverable amount is the fair value of the asset less costs to sell or, if higher, the asset's value in use. If the recoverable amount cannot be assessed per item, the impairment need is observed on the level of cash-flow generating units, i.e. at the lowest unit level which is mainly independent of other units and at which cash flows can be distinguished from other cash flows.

Impairment loss is recognised if the book value of the asset is higher than the recoverable amount. Impairment loss is recognised immediately in the income statement. If the impairment loss arises with regard to a cash-generating unit, it is first allocated to reduce the goodwill and then to reduce the other assets of the unit pro rata. The useful life of the depreciated asset is re-evaluated in conjunction with the recognition of an impairment loss. An impairment loss recognised for an asset other than goodwill is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the amount recoverable from the said asset. However, the impairment loss may not be reversed in excess of what the asset's book value would be without the recognition of the impairment loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is never reversed.

ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 58

Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of original cost or probable net realisable value. The acquisition cost is determined using the FIFO method. The acquisition cost for finished and unfinished products consists of raw materials, direct labour costs, other direct costs, and the appropriate share of manufacturing-related variable overheads and fixed overheads at a normal level of operations. The net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated selling expenses.

Biological assets

The Group's biological assets consist of live animals and growing crops. Biological assets are valued at fair value, less estimated sales-related expenses. Productive animals are included in tangible assets, and other biological assets (slaughter animals and growing crops) are included in inventories.

Agricultural products harvested of the biological assets at harvest time are valued at fair value, less estimated sales-related expenses. Valuation after harvest is conducted in accordance with inventory valuation principles.

The fair value of productive biological assets is based on the original acquisition price less a cost corresponding to the reduction of value in use due to the aging of the animals. There is no available market price for productive animals. The fair value of slaughter animals equals their market price, which is based on the company's slaughter animal procurement/sales in the local market. The fair value of growing crops is based on production costs.

Financial assets

Classification

The Group's financial assets are divided into the following groups:

Financial assets recognised at fair value through profit or loss
Loans and other receivables
Financial assets available for sale

The classification is made on the basis of the purpose of the acquisition, and the assets are classified in connection with the original acquisition.

Financial assets recognised at fair value through profit or loss:

A financial asset belongs to this category if it has been acquired for trading purposes. Financial assets held for trading are acquired mainly to generate profit from changes in short-term market prices. The derivatives used by the Group that do not fulfil the hedge accounting conditions in IAS 39 have been classified as held for trading. The assets belonging to this category have been classified as current assets.

Loans and other receivables:

Loans and other receivables are non-derivative financial assets which involve payments that are fixed or determinable and which are not listed on active markets. They are included in current assets, except when they fall due within more than 12 months from the end date of the reporting period, in which case they are classified as non-current assets. Trade and loan receivables as well as other receivables and cash and cash equivalents in financial assets are also included in the Group's loans and other receivables.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 59

Financial assets available for sale:

Financial assets available for sale are non-derivative assets that have been prescribed to this group or that have not been prescribed to any other group. They are included in non-current assets unless they fall due or are intended to be kept for less than 12 months from the closing date, in which case they are included in current assets.

Recognition and measurement

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the basis of the trading date, i.e., the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from investments have expired or have been transferred to another party and the Group has substantially transferred all risks and rewards of ownership.

Investments in financial assets not recognised at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value plus all transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue. Financial assets recognised at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value, and all transaction costs are expensed in the income statement. Financial assets recognised at fair value through profit or loss and available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Loans and other receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Unrealised and realised profits and losses due to changes in the fair value of financial assets recognised at fair value through profit or loss are entered in the income statement in the accounting period in which they occur. Exchange differences and changes in the fair value of assets classified as available for sale are recognised in other comprehensive income and are presented in the fair value fund, taking into consideration the tax effect.

When securities classified as available for sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in equity are transferred to the income statement as financial income or expenses. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in the income statement when the Group's right to receive payments is established. The fair values of quoted investments are based on current bid prices. If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), fair value is established through various valuation techniques or, when the fair value cannot be reliably determined, measured at acquisition cost. Valuation techniques involve the use of recent arm's-length transactions between independent parties, fair values of other instruments that are substantially similar and discounted cash flow analysis. Calculations make maximum use of market inputs and they rely as little as possible on entity-specific inputs.

Whether there is objective proof of impairment of a financial asset or financial asset category is estimated on each closing date. In the case of equity securities classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its acquisition cost is considered as an indicator that the securities are impaired. If any such evidence exists, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised through profit or loss – is removed from equity and recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in the income statement on equity instruments will not be reversed through the income statement.

ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 60

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently measured at fair value. The method of recognising the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The derivatives hedge accounting is applied to are defined as either:

hedges of interest rate, currency or electricity price risks associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable anticipated transaction (cash flow hedge); or
hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation (net investment hedge).

The relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items is documented at the inception of the hedging transaction. Risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking various hedge transactions are documented as well. The Group documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedge transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items.

The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months and as a current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months. Trading derivatives are classified as current assets or liabilities.

Valuation principles:

The fair value of forward exchange agreements is calculated by applying the forward rate at the balance sheet date. The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated by discounting the future cash flows using interest rate curves for the currencies in question. Electricity derivatives are measured at fair value using the market prices at the balance sheet date.

Cash flow hedge:

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recognised in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement under the appropriate item. Gains and losses accumulated in equity are recycled in the income statement in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss (for example, when the anticipated purchase that is hedged takes place). However, when the anticipated transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset (for example, inventories or fixed assets), the gains and losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial acquisition cost of the asset. The deferred amounts are ultimately recognised in costs of goods sold in case of inventories, or in depreciations in case of fixed assets. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at the time remains in equity and is recognised in the income statement only when the anticipated transaction occurs. When a anticipated transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately transferred to the income statement under the appropriate item.

Net investment hedge:

Hedges of net investments in foreign operations are accounted for in the same way as cash flow hedges.

Any gain or loss on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement. Gains and losses accumulated in equity are included in the income statement when the foreign operation is partially disposed of or sold.

Derivatives that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting:

Certain derivative financial instruments do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. All changes in the fair value of these derivatives are immediately recognised in the appropriate item of the income statement.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 61

Trade receivables

Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method and taking impairment into account. Provisions for impairment for trade receivables are recognised when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired.

If the impairment loss decreases in a later accounting period, and the reduction can be objectively linked to a transaction that has taken place after the recognition of the impairment loss, the recognised loss is reversed through profit or loss.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash and bank deposits available on demand. Items classified as cash and cash equivalents have a maximum maturity of three months from acquisition. Available credit limits are included in current interest-bearing liabilities.

Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their book value is to be recovered through a sale rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary. Furthermore, management must be committed to the sale, which should be expected to occur within one year of the date of classification.

Immediately before being classified as held for sale, these assets are measured in accordance with the applicable IFRS standards. Thereafter, the assets are measured at the lower of their book value and fair value less cost to sell. These assets are no longer depreciated after the classification.

Shareholders' equity

Ordinary shares are presented as share capital. Expenses related to the issue or acquisition of equity instruments are presented as a deductible item under equity.

If a Group company acquires shares in the company, the consideration paid for them and the expenses arising directly from the acquisition, taking the tax effect into consideration, are deducted from the shareholders' equity until the shares are either cancelled or reissued. If the shares are reissued, the consideration received for them less transaction costs directly attributable to the shares is included in the shareholders' equity, taking the tax effect into consideration.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 62

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value. They are later measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Financial liabilities are included in current and non-current liabilities.

A one-off credit fee related to committed credit facilities is spread over the duration of the agreement. The credit limit fees related to such facilities are recognised as a cost based on the passing of time.

Provisions

A provision is entered when the Group has, due to a past event, a judicial or factual obligation, and the obligation is likely to materialise and the sum of the obligation can be reliably estimated. Provisions are valued at the current value of the expenses required to cover the obligation. The amounts of provisions are reviewed on each closing date and adjusted to correspond to the best estimate at that time. Changes in provisions are recognised in the income statement in the same item where the original provision was entered.

Revenue recognition

Net sales are determined on the basis of the fair value of considerations received or to be received for the sale of products and services, raw materials and equipment, adjusted by indirect taxes and discounts based on normal contractual principles applied in the sector. Revenue from the sale of articles is recognised when the risks and rewards of owning the article have been transferred to the buyer and revenue from services when the service has been completed. Rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease period.

Interest rates are recognised based on the passing of time, taking into account the effective income from the asset. Dividend income is recognised when the shareholders' right to payment is established.

Employee benefits

Pension obligations:

Pension arrangements are classified as either defined benefit or defined contribution plans. In defined contribution plans, the Group makes fixed payments into a separate unit. The Group has no legal or constructive obligation to make additional payments, if the recipient of the payments cannot pay the pension benefits in question. All plans that do not fulfil these conditions are defined benefit pension plans. Payments made into defined contribution plans are recognised in the income statement in the reporting period to which they apply. The Group's pension plans are mainly defined contribution plans.

In defined benefit plans the company still has an ongoing obligation for the plan even after the payment for the period has been made. For arrangements classified as defined benefit plans, actuarial estimates acquired on a yearly basis serve as the grounds for recognising an expense and liability or asset in the financial statements. Actuarial gains or losses are recognised as equity refund or charge through other comprehensive income in the financial period in which they occur.

Long-term reward programme for key personnel:

The Group has in place a long-term reward programme for key personnel. Any profit from the plan is based on the Group's earnings per share (EPS). The programme has three 12-month periods (2012, 2013 and 2014), and the full earning period will end on 31 December 2014. The reward earned is determined after the period has expired based on how well the targets have been achieved. The benefits paid under the programme are measured annually and recognised as expenses and liabilities arising from employee benefits spread over the earnings period.

ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 63

Research and development expenses

Research expenditure is recognised as an expense in the balance sheet. Development expenditure related to individual projects is activated in the balance sheet when there is enough certainty that the asset in question can be technically implemented and will probably generate a future financial benefit. Activated development expenditure is recognised as project-specific expenses over the useful life of the asset. The asset is amortised from the time it is ready for use. The Group has no activated development expenses.

Government grants

Grants received as compensation for expenses are recognised in the income statement, while expenses connected with the grant are entered as costs. Such grants are entered under other operating income. The nature of the grants varies from one country to the next and the grants are only recognised after all the terms and conditions of the grant have been met, so the company does not have a repayment obligation regarding grants received. In the period under review, production subsidies for agricultural operations in Russia have been recognised as government grants. Such grants will not be received in the future, since Atria discontinued its primary production operations in Russia in late 2013.

Government grants, such as grants received for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, are recognised as a deduction in the book value of property, plant and equipment when it is reasonably certain that the grant will be received and that the Group company fulfils the prerequisites for receiving the grant. Grants are recognised as income in the form of lower depreciation during the useful life of the asset.

Income taxes

The tax expense in the income statement consists of current tax, tax adjustments from previous financial years, and deferred taxes. Taxes are entered in the income statement except if they are connected to other comprehensive income or to items recognised directly in equity. In this case the tax is also entered in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Current tax is calculated from taxable profit based on the valid tax rate of each country. The tax is adjusted by possible taxes related to previous periods.

Deferred taxes are calculated from all temporary differences between the book value and tax base. The biggest temporary differences arise from the depreciation of property, plant and equipment and fair value measurement in connection with acquisitions. No deferred tax is booked for non-deductible goodwill impairment and no deferred tax is booked for the subsidiaries' undistributed profits if the difference is not likely to dissolve in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax is calculated using the tax rates provided by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the amount for which it is likely that taxable profit will be generated in the future against which the temporary difference can be utilised.

Non-recurring items

Exceptional non-core events, such as capital gains and losses from the sale of operations, impairment, the costs of discontinuing significant operations and costs arising from the reorganisation of operations are treated as non-recurring items.

1. Segment Information

The Group's operating segments are based on the Group's internal organisational structure and internal financial reporting, which the Atria's Board of Directors uses in strategic and operative decision-making. The Atria's Board of Directors assesses the performance of the operating segments based on net sales, EBIT and return on capital employed. The Group has four recognisable geographical segments that differ essentially from one another in terms of the functioning of the markets. They are Atria Finland, Atria Scandinavia, Atria Russia and Atria Baltic. In addition, Group costs are now reported separately in unallocated items. Group costs mainly consist of personnel and administrative costs. A segment's assets and liabilities are items that can be directly attributed or reasonably allocated to the segment. The transactions between the segments take place at market price.

The Group has two customers, and the value of the trade with each of them forms between 10 and 15 per cent of the Group's net sales. The net sales in question are reported in the operating segments Finland, Russia and Baltic.

Chicken chicks/1,000	25,250	22,582
Cereal/1000 kg	7,966	4,845

The fair value of productive biological assets is based on the original acquisition price less a cost corresponding to the reduction of value in use due to the aging of the animals. The fair value of slaughter animals equals their market price, which is based on the company's slaughter animal procurement/sales in the local market.

Agricultural production has been practised in order to control raw material risks in the meat product business. Any increase in the cost of agricultural production has, where possible, been passed on in the production chain to the meat product business and to the meat product sale prices.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are allocated to the Group's cash-generating units as follows:

	Goodwill		Trademarks
	2013	2012	2013	2012

Atria Finland	4,801	4,801	2,500	2,500
Atria Scandinavia	150,894	154,640	59,015	60,488
Atria Russia			4,726	5,311
Atria Estonia	9,061	9,061	2,857	4,148
Total	164,756	168,502	69,098	72,447

Impairment testing

The recoverable amount of a cash-generating unit is defined on the basis of value-in-use calculations. These calculations, which use cash flow forecasts based on management-approved budgets and strategic targets, are defined before taxes and extend over a five-year period. Cash flows after the five-year forecast period are extrapolated using the growth rates presented below. The growth rate used does not exceed the average long-term growth rate of the industry in which the unit that generates the cash flow operates.

Key assumptions for 2013	Atria Finland	Atria Scandinavia	Atria Russia brand	Atria Estonia

Long-term net sales growth rate	1,0%	1,0%	4,5%	1,0%
Discount rate defined before taxes	5,2%	5,6%	11,4%	5,9%

Key assumptions for 2012	Atria Finland	Atria Scandinavia	Atria Russia brand	Atria Estonia

Long-term net sales growth rate	1,0%	1,0%	4,5%	1,0%
Discount rate defined before taxes	3,9%	4,3%	10,4%	4,6%

The most important assumptions used in Atria's impairment testing for cash flow forecasts are growth in net sales and long-term EBIT margin. The growth and profitability assumptions used are based on the profitability levels and growth rate in net sales that the company will experience in the near future in Finland and Scandinavia. EBIT margins are expected to be close to the Group's targeted level of 5%. The improving long-term profitability of the Baltic region is based on increased profitability achieved through efficiency improvement measures, which is expected to continue. The expansion of the product range, the more profitable use of meat raw material and the improvement of the general market situation will also raise the company's profitability in the next few years.

Growth percentage assumptions are moderate in all market areas. Russia's higher growth projection is due to its higher inflation rate, higher market growth expectations and the relatively high growth projection for meat consumption. Due to the relatively stable development of the food industry and moderately optimistic growth forecasts, it is unlikely that the growth rate assumptions will generate impairment losses in the future.

As regards EBIT margins, impairment losses must be recognised if the long-term level in Scandinavia and Estonia remains about 54% and 21% below the assumption, respectively. In Finland, the EBIT percentage should be approximately 69% below the assumption before the need for impairment arises.

Discount rates could produce impairment losses (all cash flow forecasts being equal) if they increased by 3.6 percentage points in Scandinavia and 0.7 percentage points in Estonia. In Finland, an increase by over 8,0 percentage points would lead to depreciations. Clearly higher discount rates would mean that the market situation has changed in such a way that the change could affect Atria's cash flows as well. Therefore, the above-mentioned increases in discount rates do not directly mean that there would be a need for impairment.

In the financial statements, a separate test was conducted on a trademark with an indefinite useful life for Atria Russia. The testing did not indicate a need for recognising an impairment loss. On the basis of a sensitivity analysis, an impairment loss is not likely to be recognised for the trademark in the coming years, either.

In the Atria Group, credit risk from trade receivables is considered small in proportion to the scope of the operations. The Group's trade receivables are dispersed over several market areas and many customers. Credit loss risk is managed with securities, such as credit insurance and bank guarantees as well as with advance invoicing. Each business area has been assigned a separate credit policy that takes the special features of the market area into account. Credit risk is examined and monitored on a case-by-case basis for major customers and customer groups.

The "trade receivables from producers" account includes feed and animal trading receivables from animal payments.

The receivables situation and security values are monitored regularly in accordance with the credit policy.

Material items in accrued credits and deferred charges consist of prepaid expenses of purchase invoices, lease receivables and tax amortisations.

The "non-current assets available for sale" account includes industrial real estate in Lithuania and a pig farm in Russia. In September, Atria announced its intention to discontinue primary production in Russia. The pig farm buildings left empty in December were transferred to assets available for sale.

During the accounting period, the logistics centre in Forssa was transferred from assets available for sale back to tangible assets. Today, the property is used by the company. As a result of the reclassification, write-downs in the amount of EUR 1.1 million recognised during earlier financial periods were reversed. This non-recurring profit item has been recognised under "Other operating income".

In Sweden, the Halmstad plant real estate, which had remained empty after production was moved to the Malmö plant, was classified as an asset available for sale in March. The value of the real estate was reduced by a total of EUR 1.0 million, to align it with its fair value. Impairments have been recognised under "Other operating income". The real estate was sold in December.

The company attempts to actively sell the real estate, but sales periods tend to be longer due to the depressed market situation. The company expects the sales to come through after markets have recovered.

Shareholders' equity, EUR 1,000

Shares and share capital

Shares are divided into A and KII series, which differ in terms of voting rights. A series shares have one vote per share and KII series shares have ten votes per share. A series shares have preference for a dividend of EUR 0.17, after which KII series shares are paid a dividend of up to EUR 0.17. If there is still more dividend available for distribution, A and KII series shares have the same entitlement to the dividend. All issued shares have been paid in full. The share has no nominal value or a maximum number.

The other funds item includes the fair value reserve and hedging fund. Changes in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognised in the fair value reserve, while the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments used for hedging are recognised in the hedging fund. Hedge accounting results for commodity derivatives are transferred from equity to the income statement for adjustment of purchase expenses and, correspondingly, the hedging result for interest rate derivatives is transferred for adjustment of interest expenses.

Invested unrestricted equity fund

This reserve contains other equity investments and the share subscription price to the extent that it is not recognised in share capital according to a separate decision, as well as the value of shares earned before 2012 on the basis of the share incentive plan, calculated at the rate of the grant date.

Translation differences

The following are recognised: the translation differences from the translation of the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries, as well as the translation of fair value adjustments of goodwill, assets and liabilities arising in conjunction with the acquisition of the said companies. Profits and losses arisen from hedges of net investments in foreign operations are also recognised as translation differences when the hedge accounting criteria are met.

The Group's Swedish companies have defined-benefit pension arrangements (ITP2). Most of the ITP2 pension arrangements are provided by the occupational pension insurance company Alecta as multiple-employer arrangements, so the funds and liabilities within them cannot be allocated to an individual company. For this reason, the ITP2 pension arrangements managed by Alecta are treated as defined contribution plans in the financial statements. The remaining ITP2 pension arrangements are financed through the FPG/PRI system, and they are treated as defined benefit plans as of the 2011 accounting period.

Financial risk management, EUR 1,000

The treasury policy approved by the Board of Directors defines the general principles of financial risk management. The Board has delegated the management of financial risks to the Treasury Committee, while the practical management of financial risks is centrally handled by the Group's Treasury unit. The goal of financial risk management is to reduce the effect that price fluctuations on the financial markets and other uncertainty factors have on earnings, the balance sheet and cash flow, as well as to ensure sufficient liquidity. Treasury, together with the business areas, aims to identify, assess and hedge against all risks in accordance with the financing policy. The main risks related to financing are interest rate risk, currency risk, liquidity and refinancing risk and credit risk. Commodity risks and capital structure management are also dealt with at the end of this section.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is managed by dividing financing into instruments with variable and fixed interest rates and by hedging with interest rate derivatives. During the accounting period, the Group used interest rate swaps in interest rate risk management. The Group links interest rate risk management to the interest margin indicator forecast by dividing the 12-month rolling operating margin by the forecast net interest rate expenses. The lower the operating margin is in relation to net financing costs, the larger is the share of debt that must have a fixed interest rate. The Group's interest-bearing debt at the balance sheet date was EUR 334.7 million (EUR 370.5 million), of which EUR 185.0 million (EUR 184.5 million) or 55.3% (49.8%) had fixed interest rates. The ratio of debt with fixed and variable interest rates is at the level defined by the Group's financing policy.

The interest rate risk is mainly directed at the Group's interest-bearing liabilities because the amount of money market investments and related interest rate risk is low. The Group's operational cash flow is to a large extent independent of fluctuations in interest rates. At the balance sheet date, Atria Plc had four open interest rate swaps subject to hedge accounting.

1) An interest rate swap amounting to EUR 40 million where Atria pays a fixed interest rate of 2.58% and receives the 6-month Euribor rate. The company uses the interest rate swap to hedge a bond with a variable interest rate that matures on 28 March 2014.
2) An interest rate swap amounting to SEK 370 million (maturity on 9 December 2015) where Atria pays a fixed interest rate of 2.542% and receives the 3-month Stibor rate. The company uses the interest rate swap to hedge a SEK 370 million loan with a variable interest rate.
3) An interest rate swap amounting to EUR 25 million where Atria pays a fixed interest rate of 2.408% and receives the 6-month Euribor rate. The company uses the interest rate swap to hedge a EUR 25 million loan with a variable interest rate that matures on 29 April 2018.
4) An interest rate swap amounting to EUR 25 million where Atria pays a fixed interest rate of 2.355% and receives the 6-month Euribor rate. The company uses the interest rate swap to hedge a EUR 25 million loan with a variable interest rate that matures on 29 April 2018.

The sensitivity analysis of net interest rate expenses is based on a 1% change in interest rates, which is considered to be reasonably realistic. It is calculated for year-end interest-bearing, variable-rate net liabilities that are expected to remain the same over the accounting period. The interest rate swaps are taken into account in the calculation. In simulations, the same change in interest rate is used for all currencies. On 31 December 2013, variable-rate net liabilities amounted to EUR 120.9 million (EUR 179.4 million). At the end of 2013, a +/-1% change in interest rates corresponded to a change of EUR +/-1.2 million in the Group's annual interest rate expenses (EUR +/-1.8 million). The effect on equity would be EUR 2.7 million (EUR 4.1 million) with a +1% change and EUR -2.8 million (EUR -4.3 million) with a -1% change.

Currency risk

Atria Group operates in many currency zones and is exposed to currency-related risks. Currency risks arise from forecast transactions, assets and liabilities booked into the balance sheet and net investments in the operations of foreign subsidiaries. The subsidiaries hedge the currency risk related to commercial, operational items according to their currency risk policy for each business area. Each currency risk policy has been approved by the Treasury Committee. In Finland and Sweden, hedge accounting is applied to the aforementioned currency hedges. Currency risk is monitored according to the 12-month rolling cash flow forecast, and hedges are carried out for periods of 1 to 6 months using forward exchange agreements. The cash flows hedged during this time are expected to occur and affect profit or loss. Among other things, transaction risks come from the euro-denominated meat raw material imports of Atria's Swedish operations and from the USD-denominated imports of its Russian companies. In Atria's Finnish operations, currency flows and risks are relatively low and are mainly related to USD- and SEK-denominated exports.

The Group has net investments in the operations of foreign subsidiaries that are exposed to currency risks. The Treasury Committee decides on net investment hedges on a case-by-case basis. At the time of the financial statements, there were no derivative agreements in force for net investment hedging. The parent company grants financing to the subsidiaries in their home currencies and has hedged the currency-denominated loan receivables from the subsidiaries through currency loans and forward exchange agreements.

If, at the end of the accounting period, the euro had been 10% weaker/stronger than the Swedish krona (all other factors being equal), profit before taxes would have been EUR 0.6 million higher/lower due to the Swedish subsidiaries' euro-denominated accounts payable (EUR 0.9 million). The effect on equity would have been EUR 0.5 million (EUR 0.7 million). Sensitivity analyses also take into account the effects of currency derivatives, which offset the effects of change in exchange rates.

If, at the end of the financial period, the euro had been 10% weaker/stronger than the Russian rouble (all other factors being equal), profit before taxes would have been EUR 0.1 million higher/lower due to the Russian subsidiaries' euro-denominated accounts payable (EUR 0.1 million). The effect on equity would have been EUR 0.0 million (EUR 0.0 million).

Liquidity and refinancing risk

Atria Plc's Treasury raises the majority of the Group's interest-bearing capital. Liquidity and refinancing risks are managed through a balanced loan maturity distribution and by having sufficient committed credit limits with sufficiently long periods of validity at hand, by using many financial institutions and instruments to raise finance and by keeping a sufficient amount of cash funds. Atria uses commercial papers actively for short-term financing and liquidity management. There was EUR 148.2 million (EUR 153.0 million) in unutilised binding credit limits at the end of the year, and EUR 145.9 million (EUR 166.7 million) of the EUR 200 million commercial paper programme had not been used at the end of the accounting period. The average maturity of the Group's loans and committed credit limits was 3 years 4 months (2 years 10 months).

The main covenant used in loan agreements is a minimum equity ratio covenant of 30%. The Group's equity ratio has been approx. 40% for many years, and the Group will continue to ensure an equity ratio higher than the level required by the covenant. According to the terms of loan agreements, the implementation of covenants is reported to financiers either quarterly or semi-annually.

According to the Group management's view, there was no significant liquidity accumulation in financial assets or financial sources.

The table below shows the maturity analysis for financial liabilities and derivative financial instruments (undiscounted figures). The capital levies and revenue of derivative liabilities and assets are related to forward exchange agreements, and interest payments to interest rate swaps.

*] There is a netting right agreement with all derivative counterparties. The derivative liability and asset figures in the table are gross amounts. If the figures were netted, derivative liabilities would be EUR 6.4 million (EUR 5.3 million).

Credit risk

Credit risk is managed at Group level in accordance with the Group's risk management policy approved by the Board of Directors. The credit risk related to financing, i.e., the counterparty risk, is managed by selecting only well-established highly rated counterparties with good credit ratings as counterparties. The Group's liquid assets are only invested with counterparties that meet the above-mentioned criteria. This is also the procedure when entering into financing and derivative agreements. The credit risk related to derivatives is also decreased by the fact that all payments made in relation to derivatives are net payments. Atria has only made derivatives with banks that are among Atria's main financiers.

The credit risk of the Group's operative business is related to our customers, of which the main ones are large retail chains. Part of the Group's trade receivables are related to feed and animal trading in primary production. The credit risk related to this is higher, but also more dispersed. The Group's trade receivables are also dispersed over several market areas and many customers.

Credit loss risk is managed with securities, such as credit insurances and bank guarantees as well as with advance invoicing. Each business area has been assigned a separate credit policy that takes the special features of the market area into account. Credit risk is examined and monitored on a case-by-case basis for major customers and customer groups. The breakdown of trade receivables is illustrated in Note 20.

Commodity risk

The Group is exposed to commodity risks, the most significant of which are meat raw material and electricity. Fluctuations in the price of meat raw material affect profitability in the short term, but efforts are made to pass on the price increases to sales prices as soon as possible.

Fluctuations in the price of electricity are hedged with forward electricity agreements according to the Group's electricity procurement policy. The hedging levels in the policy are shown in the table below.

Period	Hedging level minimum	Hedging level maximum
1–12 months	70%	100%
13–24 months	40%	80%
25–36 months	0%	50%
37–48 months	0%	40%
49–60 months	0%	30%

Hedge accounting in accordance with IFRS is applied to electricity hedges. The effective portion of changes in the value of derivatives, amounting to EUR -1.2 million (EUR -0.7 million), has been recognised under equity, and the ineffective portion, amounting to EUR -0.7 million (EUR -0.8 million), has been recognised in the income statement.

If the market price of electricity derivatives changed by +/-10% from the level of 31 December 2013, the effect on equity would be EUR +/-1.5 million (EUR +/-1.3 million), on the assumption that all hedges are 100% effective.

Capital structure management

In capital structure management, the Group aims to ensure normal operating conditions under all circumstances and to maintain an optimal capital structure in terms of capital costs.

The Group monitors the development of its capital structure primarily through the equity ratio, for which the Group has set a target level of 40%. Based on this equity ratio, the company estimates that the availability and total cost of new capital are optimal.

Equity ratio is affected by balance sheet total and equity. The company is able to affect the balance sheet total and, thereby, the capital structure through the management of working capital, the amount of investments and the sale of business operations or assets. Correspondingly, the company can affect the amount of its own equity through dividend distribution and share issues.

In the assessment of investments and divestments, the Group uses the Group's weighted average cost of capital (WACC) as reference. This way, the Group tries to ensure that its assets generate at least an amount corresponding to the average cost of its capital.

Level 1: Prices listed on active markets for identical assets and liabilities

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on market prices listed on the closing date. Markets are regarded as active if listed prices are readily and regularly available from the stock exchange, broker, industry group, price information service or surveillance authority, and these prices represent actual and regularly occurring market events between independent parties. The current purchase price is used as the listed market price for financial assets.

Level 2: Fair values can be determined either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).

A fair value is established through valuation techniques for financial instruments that are not traded in active markets (such as OTC derivatives). These valuation techniques make maximum use of observable market information, when available, and rely as little as possible on company-specific assessments. If all significant input required for determining the fair value of the instrument is observable, the instrument is on level 2.

Level 3: Fair values are not based on verifiable market prices.

If one or more significant piece of input information is not based on observable market information, the instrument is classified on level 3. Assessments by external parties are used for measurement of financial instruments and, if such assessments are not available, the company's own calculations/assessments are used.

Auditor's Report (Translation from the Finnish original)
ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 98

To the Annual General Meeting of Atria Corporation

We have audited the accounting records, the financial statements, the report of the Board of Directors and the administration of Atria Corporation for the year ended 31 December, 2013. The financial statements comprise the consolidated statement of financial position, income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, as well as the parent company's balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement and notes to the financial statements.

Responsibility of the Board of Directors and the Managing Director

The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the preparation of consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU, as well as for the preparation of financial statements and the report of the Board of Directors that give a true and fair view in accordance with the laws and regulations governing the preparation of the financial statements and the report of the Board of Directors in Finland. The Board of Directors is responsible for the appropriate arrangement of the control of the company's accounts and finances, and the Managing Director shall see to it that the accounts of the company are in compliance with the law and that its financial affairs have been arranged in a reliable manner.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements, on the consolidated financial statements and on the report of the Board of Directors based on our audit. The Auditing Act requires that we comply with the requirements of professional ethics. We conducted our audit in accordance with good auditing practice in Finland. Good auditing practice requires that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and the report of the Board of Directors are free from material misstatement, and whether the members of the Supervisory Board and Board of Directors of the parent company as well the Managing Director are guilty of an act or negligence which may result in liability in damages towards the company or whether they have violated the Limited Liability Companies Act or the articles of association of the company.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and the report of the Board of Directors. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation of financial statements and report of the Board of Directors that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and the report of the Board of Directors.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Auditor's Report (Translation from the Finnish original)
ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 99

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, and cash flows of the group in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU.

Opinion on the Company's Financial Statements and the Report of the Board of Directors

In our opinion, the financial statements and the report of the Board of Directors give a true and fair view of both the consolidated and the parent company's financial performance and financial position in accordance with the laws and regulations governing the preparation of the financial statements and the report of the Board of Directors in Finland. The information in the report of the Board of Directors is consistent with the information in the financial statements.

Other Opinions

We support that the financial statements and the consolidated financial statements should be adopted. The proposal by the Board of Directors regarding the use of the profit shown in the balance sheet is in compliance with the Limited Liability Companies Act. We support that the Members of the Supervisory Board and Board of Directors as well the Managing Director of the parent company should be discharged from liability for the financial period audited by us.

ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 114

Risk definition and classification

Risks are defined as external or internal (within Atria Group) events that may have a positive or negative impact on the execution of the company's strategy, the achievement of its targets and the continuity of business.

Atria is subject to many different risks. For reporting purposes, Atria's risks are divided into four categories: business risks, financial risks, operational risks and accident risks.

Business risks may be related to business decisions, resources allocation, the way in which changes in the business environment are responded to, or management systems in general.

Financial risks may refer to the risk of insufficient financial resources in the short or medium term, the risk of counterparties failing to meet their financial obligations or the risk of changes in market prices affecting the company.

Operational risks are defined as deficiencies or disruptions in processes or systems, risks related to people's actions and risks related to legislation or other regulations.

Accident risks refer to external or internal (within Atria) events or disruptions that cause damage or loss.

Organisation and responsibilities of risk management

Atria Plc's Board of Directors approves the Risk Management Policy and supervises its implementation. The CEO is responsible for organising risk management.

Internal control and risk management are implemented by the entire organisation, including the Board of Directors, management and the entire personnel. However, the responsibility for internal control and risk management lies with the company's top management. Organising internal control and risk management is part of Group management. The company's management defines the operational procedures and codes of practice that enable the company to achieve its goals.

The Group's Management Team and the management teams of the business areas are responsible for identifying and assessing risks and for implementing risk management in their respective areas of responsibility. Financial risk management is centralised in the Group's Treasury unit. The Group's CFO gathers the most significant risks that are identified and reports them to the Board of Directors at least once a year. The CFO is responsible for development, guidelines and support in risk management and reporting. External advisers are also used in the development work.

Risk management is discussed in more detail in the annual report under "Risk management at Atria".

11.2 Internal audit

Atria's financial administration handles internal audits in collaboration with an external service provider. Internal audits are conducted in compliance with policies approved by the Board of Directors, which are based on internal reporting and an annual audit plan confirmed by the Board of Directors. A key task of internal audit is to review and assess the suitability, functionality and profitability of the company's risk management and internal control. Therefore, its aim is to contribute to the achievement of the organisation's goals. Within its duties, the function assesses the following areas:

Correctness and adequacy of financial information
Compliance with operating principles, codes of practice, regulations and reporting systems
Protection of property against losses
Cost-efficiency and effectiveness of the use of resources.

The purpose of internal audit is to ensure that all of the company's business areas comply with the Group's rules and guidelines and that the operations are effectively managed. The results of internal auditing are documented. They are discussed with the management of the audited entity before the report and suggestions for improvement are presented to the Group's CEO.

The achievement of financial targets is regularly monitored by means of Group-wide financial reporting. The reports include actual figures, budgets and up-to-date forecasts for the current year.

Corporate Governance

ATRIA'S ANNUAL REPORT 2013 • 115

The entities to be audited are defined in cooperation with Group management. The audit plan is also based on annual Group-wide risk assessment.

Where necessary, internal audit also conducts separate studies commissioned by the Board of Directors or the Group's management. A summary of the audit results is presented to the Board of Directors at least once a year.

12. Auditing

In accordance with the Articles of Association, the company shall have at least one (1) and no more than four (4) regular auditors and at most as many deputy auditors. The auditors and deputy auditors shall be public accountants or firms of independent public accountants authorised by the Central Chamber of Commerce of Finland. The term of service of the auditors shall end at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting following their election.

The auditor provides Atria's shareholders with an Auditor's Report in accordance with the law, in conjunction with the company's financial statements, and regularly reports to the Board of Directors and management. The auditor participates in a Board meeting at least once a year, during which the audit plan and auditing results are discussed.

In 2013, Atria Plc's Annual General Meeting elected PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy, a firm of authorised public accountants, as the company's auditor until the closing of the next AGM. According to the firm, the auditor in charge is Authorised Public Accountant Juha Wahlroos. The auditor will be paid according to invoice.

Atria's Board of Directors has confirmed the insider guidelines for the company, which include instructions for permanent and project-specific insiders. The company's guidelines have been distributed to all insiders.

The insider registers are maintained in cooperation with Euroclear Finland Oy. The company's legal department and CFO monitor compliance with the insider guidelines. The company has limited its insiders' right to trade in the company's shares in the 14 days preceding the publication of the company's interim reports and financial statements. In addition to the public insider register, there is a separate register of other permanent insiders, maintained by the legal department, and there are also project-specific registers wherein insider information is recorded by project.

14. Communications

The aim of Atria's investor reporting is to ensure that the market has correct and sufficient information available at all times to determine the value of Atria's shares. An additional aim is to provide the financial markets with comprehensive information to enable active participants in the capital markets to form a justified image of Atria as an investment.

Silent period
