CEO's review

In 2018, we focused on measures to improve the profitability of our operations and the implementation of the measures stipulated by the restructuring programmes. The restructuring programmes have progressed as planned and we have, among other things, been able to divest real estate unrelated to our core business as well as shares

held in real estate companies. We have continued to implement development projects that are important for reducing our cost level and we have also improved the productivity of our factories. The stabilisation of our business was reflected in our net sales remaining on a par with the previous year. Thanks to lower fixed costs and the more efficient planning and implementation of production and logistics — which was enabled by the improved liquidity — the Group's adjusted EBITDA increased year-on-year. The Group's comparable adjusted operating result also improved.

Close cooperation with customers is one of the cornerstones of our operations. Nevertheless, the need to improve profitability has called for a purposeful assessment of customer relationships. Componenta's organizational structure and production network have changed significantly during the recent years, with the Turkish subsidiary being divested from the Group, among other things. As a result of these changes, the Group has customer relationships that are now outside its core business and where the cooperation is focused on castings from outside the Componenta Group. This has meant a significant increase in supply chain risks related to these customer relationships. In 2018, we made a strategic decision to discontinue one significant customer relationship that was unprofitable and mostly involved deliveries of castings from outside the Group. As a result of this measure, the business operations of Componenta Främmestad AB — which engages in the machining and

painting business in Sweden — will be scaled down substantially in 2019. As part of downscaling activities, the Swedish subsidiary has already initiated measures to reduce personnel. We also expect to see effects at the Pori foundry in Finland, as the terminated customer relationship represented just under half of the foundry's total production. The plans for the Pori unit also include closing down one of its two moulding lines, the unprofitable DISA line, in 2019.

As part of our measures aimed at improving profitability, we have reviewed Componenta Främmestad AB's operating model. The majority of its business consists of the refining and supplying of castings from outside the Group. The operations employ substantial amounts of capital, the refining level of the products is low and the profitability of the customer relationships is weak. In 2018, we engaged in an open dialogue with the largest customer of the Swedish subsidiary with the aim of shifting the company's operating model to value-added selling, but the negotiations did not produce the desired outcome. The synergistic significance of Componenta Främmestad AB has continued to decline. We are considering the option of divesting this business, as the capital released from its operations would strengthen Componenta Group's core businesses.

The Group's Finnish companies will make the first repayments on their restructuring debts in 2019 and the progress of the restructuring programmes as planned is of primary importance for us. As our operations become more concentrated and stabilised, we are pleased to note that our cooperation with the foundry customers in our core business has strengthened further and we have received significant new orders for our foundries in Finland. Our goal is to respond to customer needs and this is also the starting point for the continued development of our service portfolio. One significant synergistic path of growth that we have identified is the option of offering own machining services for castings in Finland.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank our customers, suppliers, service providers, stakeholders and everyone at Componenta for their cooperation and contribution during the year.

HALLITUKSEN TOIMINTAKERTOMUS 2017

Business model

Componenta offers its clients services throughout the whole supply chain by offering planning, casting, machining, painting and logistical services, which offer clients value added complex solutions. The main products sold by Componenta are nonmachined, machined and painted iron cast components. Componenta serves specific industrial branches, which have mutual synergies and with which companies Componenta has strong and longterm relationships. Geographically Componenta operates in Europe, but collaborations exist with companies that operate globally.

Summary of key events of the year

Componenta's restructuring programmes have progressed as planned. Measures to improve the profitability have been taken during the financial year that ended by focusing on reducing costs, improving productivity of factories and increasing prices.

Customer relationships have also been assessed during the financial year and one significant unprofitable customer contract was terminated. The main reasons which justified the termination of the contract were the insufficient profit margin, high level

of employed capital and low value add of products. The impact of the measures will be visible during the financial year 2019, especially as reductions of operations in Sweden, but the measures will also have an impact on Pori foundry operations, since these deliveries represent 40% of the Pori unit's volume. As part of the adjustment measures, it is planned to close the other line of the Pori foundry, the so-called Disa line, by the end of 2019. In 2018, Componenta has started measures aiming at significantly reducing Componenta Främmestad AB's Tier1-position, since the margins of some customer relationships have not been sufficient.

The synergy significance of Componenta Främmestad AB, which conducts machining and painting operations, for the Group decreased when the foundry operations in Turkey was sold in 2017. Most of Componenta Främmestad AB's operations consists of the refining and supplying of castings from outside the Group. The reactions of main customers towards the operational model change has not delivered expected results. While the synergy benefits have decreased, it is under consideration to give up the operations. Divesting from the low-profitability machine shop customer relationships in Sweden releases capital for core business.

Due to stabilized financial situation, Componenta have started to receive new significant orders for the Finnish foundries.

There have been negotiations with key foundry customers on possibilities to offer machining of their castings in Finland. This is perceived to be the most significant synergic growth direction of Componenta in the future. During the last quarter of 2018, Componenta updated the customer prices of the foundries to respond to increased costs.

The District Court of Helsinki approved the amendments to the confirmed restructuring programmes of Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd on 14 December 2018. The amendments to the payment programme approved by the district court mainly concerned the amount specification of conditional and maximum amount of restructuring debts and minor corrections to restructuring debts. These amendments only have a minor impact on the payments based on the restructuring programmes and no impacts on the company's financial position.

Componenta Främmestad AB paid its external restructuring debts falling due in July 2018 already in March 2018.

*) Componenta Finland Ltd's restructuring debts round to EUR 5.7 million.

**) The remaining Componenta Främmestad AB's debt to Componenta's former Turkish company will be paid back within a period of six years. The repayment is tied to the EBITDA of Componenta Främmestad AB.

***) The reason for the larger last instalment of Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd is that the income from the sales of properties, which are not part of the core business, have been taken into account in the payment programme. The generated income will be used to repay debts during the end of the payment programme. The last instalment also includes a supplementary payment obligation of EUR 3.2 million incurred by the discharge of EUR 80 million loan guarantee.

August 2018. Componenta Finland Ltd's subsidiary Karkkilan Valimokiinteistö Oy sold a parcel of land including the buildings on the land on property owned by it in Karkkila on 31 August 2018. The aforementioned sales were carried out at market rates and their cash impact was EUR 1.0 million and combined impact on result was EUR 0.0 million.

According to the restructuring programmes, a supplementary payment obligation to creditors is incurred for Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd if the company's generated operating cash flow exceeds in any given calendar year, starting from 2018 and ending in 2022, the operating cash flow predicted in the programme balance sheet of the calendar year in question, from which the operating cash flow shortfall from 2018 or later in proportion to the operating cash flow predicted in the programme balance sheet will be deducted once. Solely the company's unsecured creditors are entitled to supplementary payments. The company has then an obligation to pay a supplementary payment of 50% of the amount that the generated operating cash flow exceeded the operating cash flow predicted in the programme balance sheet of the calendar year in question, from which the operating cash flow shortfall from 2018 or later in proportion to the operating cash flow predicted in the programme balance sheet will be deducted once. However, there will be no supplementary payment obligation if the generated operating cash flow has exceeded the operating cash flow predicted in the

The net cash flow of the Group's capital expenditure was EUR -0.2 million (EUR -2.6 million), including the net cash flow of the Group's capital expenditure on tangible or intangible assets as well as the sold fixed assets cash flow. The cash flow of the Group's capital expenditure of the continued operations was EUR -0.2 million (EUR -1.4 million).

Research and development activity

In 2018 the research and development expenses of Componenta's continued operations totalled EUR -0.0 million (EUR -0.0 million), which is equivalent to 0.0% (0.0%) of the Group's turnover for continued operations. Research and development costs are very low since Componenta carries on order machine shop business and therefore it does not have own products worth mentioning.

Statement of non-financial information

Sustainability and sustainable development are an integral part of Componenta's operations. Sustainable operations are based on the company's values, strategy and operating methods. Componenta's approach to sustainability covers both strategic planning and short-term planning and development work. Componenta's management sets annual targets for the most significant aspects of sustainability, and their development is monitored and analysed on a continuous basis. This also enables taking preventive measures when necessary.

From the perspective of sustainability, the most significant aspects of Componenta's operations are environmental responsibility and the well-being of personnel.

In Componenta's industry, matters related to environmental responsibility are emphasised. The production of cast components is energy-intensive, and the production process also generates significant amounts of spent sand, slag and waste. Every year, the company reports information related to environmental responsibility for the Group's production units in Finland and Sweden that have a significant environmental impact.

As Componenta's industry is also very labour-intensive, personnel costs as well as investments in employee well-being and competence have a significant impact on the company's success. The company respects the rights of its employees and operates under safe working conditions. Componenta respects its employees' freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining, and the company has zero tolerance for forced labour, child labour and discrimination.

OTHER INFORMATION

Componenta reports on matters related to sustainability and sustainable development annually in the form of a statement of non-financial information included in the Report by the Board of Directors. Componenta's Board of Directors has approved this statement. The Board is committed to annually defining the materiality of aspects related to sustainability and non-financial information. The figures presented in this section include both actual figures for the year and figures for comparison with the corresponding period in the previous year.

Description of business model

Componenta's business model is to supply cast and machined components from its production facilities in Finland and Sweden to its customers, who are local and global manufacturers of vehicles, machines and equipment. Componenta's business model is based on cherishing long-term customer relationships. The comprehensive offering of the production units covers component sizes ranging from a few kilograms to a few hundred kilograms, and series sizes ranging from small series to series of tens of thousands of units. The offering also includes several different choices of iron materials.

In Componenta's value chain, value is created mostly during the phase where end products are used, as Componenta's customers are able to produce long-lasting end products. Componenta's raw material and supply chains are global.

Environmental responsibility

Componenta's policies for quality, the environment, health and safety guide the Group's measures related to quality and environmental aspects. All production units have third-party certified quality and environmental management systems. The most significant risks concerning environmental responsibility are mainly related to the energy consumption of cast component production, the spent sand, slag and waste generated in production operations and the potential emissions caused by the operations of the production units. At foundries, the melting of raw material and holding its temperature involves high energy requirements, which makes Componenta a significant consumer of energy. Potential increases in energy prices or higher taxes on energy consumption could have a substantial impact on Componenta's conditions for business. The company's conditions for business would also be weakened by increases in waste management fees and waste taxes. The key risk factors for operations also include the potential introduction of tighter environmental permit regulations or emission limits.

Financial liability for environmental contamination is a significant risk due to the stringent nature and wide scope of current legislation. As Componenta's production units are located near residential areas, it is important that they comply with the emission and noise limits specified in the conditions of their environmental permits. Potential breaches of environmental protection regulations would also have a negative impact on Componenta's business due to the reputation risk associated with them. Componenta manages environmental risks to ensure the continuity and high quality of its operations and to prevent negative environmental impacts.

Componenta's most important objectives related to environmental responsibility are emission prevention, energy efficiency, reducing energy consumption and waste as well as the reuse of waste. Energy consumption is actively monitored and various measures are taken to increase the efficiency of energy consumption, including casting planning and quality development. Energy efficiency is also influenced by production volumes and the evenness of the load.

In 2018, Componenta's total energy consumption decreased by 2.1% from the previous year to 92 GWh (94 GWh). Of the energy consumed, 79% was electrical energy (80%). The other energy sources were district heat, liquid gas and oil, which represented 21% of total energy consumption (20%). Relative to production volume, the energy consumption of the iron foundries increased by 0.5%. The target set for 2018 about reducing relative energy consumption by 2% was not achieved, mainly due to the smaller production volumes towards the end of the year. Decreasing production volumes at the iron foundries have a negative impact on relative energy consumption and energy efficiency, as the amount

OTHER INFORMATION

of energy required for maintaining production capacity by, for example, holding the temperature of molten iron does not decrease with production volumes. Due to the downscaling activities anticipated for 2019, Componenta aims at making sure that relative energy consumption does not increase by more than 10% from the previous year.

The life cycle environmental impact of a product can be influenced starting from cast component engineering and the choice of materials. The better the quality that is produced, the lower the number of rejected castings and the smaller the consumption of raw material, energy and resources. Promoting the reuse of waste and identifying new options for reuse is a high priority for Componenta. Using recycled material as raw material in production has been an obvious choice for the company for a long time. Most of the raw material used for cast components is recycled metal. In 2018, recycled steel accounted for 59% (61%) of the steel used at the Group's iron foundries.

In spite of the efficient internal rotation of materials, Componenta's production operations generate a significant quantity of waste. In 2018, Componenta's production units generated a total of 26,102 tonnes of waste (22,326 tonnes), of which approximately 86% (83%) was reused. In proportion to the amount of waste generated, more waste was reused than in the previous year, but still the 89% target set for the reuse of waste was not yet fully achieved. This was mainly due to the one-off cleaning performed

around the properties in 2018 as well as variation in the products manufactured. Nearly all waste generated by Componenta is sorted, and unsorted waste represented only 0.2% (0.3%) of the total waste volume in 2018. The reused waste includes metals, slag, sand and dust. The final products manufactured by Componenta can also be recycled. Componenta's aim is to ensure that all waste sand and dust, in particular, is reused. The target for 2019 is to maintain the waste reuse percentage, based on the total waste volume, at last year's level 86%.

The most significant emissions from production operations are related to dust generated in foundries. The mould sand and binding agents used in foundries generate dust at various stages of the process. Inside the foundries, dust is controlled by using extraction points, and filtering equipment prevents the dust from escaping into the air outside. Componenta monitors and measures raw material consumption and emissions from production, namely particle and VOC emissions as well as environmental noise caused by production. Foundry dust emissions in 2018 amounted to 0.2 kg per tonne of cast components produced (0.2 kg/tn). An annual target has not been set, as dust emissions are measured at three-year intervals using a certified procedure.

The overall costs of environmental responsibility decreased slightly year-on-year due to onetime expenses arising from environmental permit regulations in 2017. Environmental expenses include costs that are directly related to the environment, such as waste management, waste water management and activities related to environmental protection. The processing of production waste represents the vast majority of the expenses. In 2018, environmental expenses amounted to 0.75% (0.94%) of the Group's net sales. At Componenta, every investment is also assessed with regard to its environmental impacts. New machinery and equipment and changes in production methods can affect variables such as energy consumption, raw material consumption and emissions. No significant investments were made in 2018.

Social responsibility and employees

At the end of 2018, the number of personnel in Componenta's continued operations, including leased personnel, was 668 (691). The geographic distribution of personnel (including leased personnel) was such that 66% (67%) of the personnel of continued operations were in Finland at the end of 2018, and 34% (33%) were in Sweden. Componenta's HR strategy is part of the Group's business strategy, and it is always firmly linked to business development and strategic focus areas. Social responsibility is based on Componenta's HR policy, management principles and values – Openness, Honesty and Respect. Componenta complies with the local regulations and rules related to production and support functions in all of its countries

of operation. In accordance with Componenta's values and management principles, all decisions pertaining to recruitment, remuneration and promotion are exclusively based on the competence and performance of each employee. Each unit has an equality plan that is reviewed annually. Employees also have access to an internal whistleblowing channel for reporting issues such as suspected incidents of discrimination.

In the industrial operating environment, the risks related to social responsibility and human resources are mainly related to occupational health and accidents. Physically strenuous work in a foundry requires investments in occupational safety and healthy working methods. Significant direct and indirect costs arising from absence due to illness and accidents have a negative impact on Componenta's conditions for business. Long-term absence due to illness and occupational accidents that cause long-term absence due to illness are particular risk factors for the Group's operations, as replacing and redeveloping lost human capital and competencies can take a long time. To manage the risks related to occupational health, Componenta has defined preventing absence due to illness and reducing the actual rate of absence due to illness as a development area. A further goal is to more effectively identify risks related to occupational accidents and thereby reduce the accident frequency. These areas of monitoring and development are closely related.

To minimize and prevent accident risks, Componenta's units arrange occupational safety training on a regular basis and make sure that employees have up-to-date, appropriate and sufficient tools at their disposal. Each unit also has an occupational health and safety programme that is regularly reviewed and updated. The Karkkila and Pori foundries also have a certified OHSAS 18001 occupational health and safety system. The employees' capacity to work is maintained by providing the necessary occupational healthcare services. Preventive measures are used with the aim of significantly reducing absence due to illness. Componenta arranges various personnel events related to both physical and mental well-being and coping at work to support well-being at work and prevent diseases.

In 2018, the rate of long-term and short-term absences due to illnesses and accidents decreased to 5.5% from the previous year (5.9%), but still failed to achieve the target of 4%. This was mainly due to unforeseen non-occupational illnesses. Componenta has an operational model for responding to absence due to illness. The model highlights cooperation between the employee, the occupational healthcare provider and the HR function. The purpose of the measures taken under the operational model is to prevent illness from developing into disability. In addition, in 2018 Componenta's Finnish units implemented a tool that highlights the supervisor's role in maintaining the employees' capacity to work and monitoring absence due to illness; it also supports discussing absence due to illness at an early stage. In 2019, Componenta aims at ensuring that the rate of absence due to illness does not exceed the figure from the previous year.

Componenta regularly monitors and logs not only actual occupational accidents, but also "close calls". In 2018, the rate of occupational accidents leading to absence was 105 (89) accidents per one million working hours. The target set for 2018, less than 70 occupational accidents per one million working hours, was not achieved, mainly due to occasional exceptional situations, such as working overtime that typically increases the likelihood of accidents. Another factor influencing the higher rate of occupational accidents was the slightly increased employee turnover, as new employees are more prone to accidents at work. There were no serious occupational accidents or fatalities at Componenta in 2018.

The majority of occupational accidents are caused by carelessness or actions that deviate from normal operating procedures. With this in mind, the aim is to anticipate potential hazards and take timely action to intervene in deficiencies related to adherence to the correct working methods. Incidents that led to accidents or close calls are systematically investigated in accordance with the company's operational model and the necessary actions are subsequently taken to update work instructions and increase awareness among the work community. Employees

are reminded of the instructions and safe working methods as often as possible. Employees are also encouraged to take initiative in observing potential hazards and report safety-related observations. The target set for 2019 is less than 70 occupational accidents per one million working hours.

Respect for human rights

Componenta's most significant purchases are related to the raw materials required in the production of iron cast components. As Componenta's raw material and supply chains are global, the company aims to place increasing attention on respect for human rights throughout the supply chain. In addition, Componenta's customers require that the most widely recognised ethical principles are adhered to in the supply chain. However, the choice of business partners is influenced by many different factors and, for example, certain raw materials required in production operations can only be sourced from a small group of suppliers. The most significant risks related to human rights violations involve suppliers and subcontractors that operate in the supply chain for Componenta's products in countries where the observance of internationally recognised human rights or workers' rights cannot be guaranteed. Potential violations of human rights and workers' rights in the company's supply chain cause reputation risks, in particular.

In accordance with its Code of Conduct, Componenta strives to ensure that the supply chain for its products observes human rights and does not promote conflict. Suppliers and subcontractors are required to comply with existing laws and regulations. Suppliers and subcontractors are also required to support and respect internationally recognised human rights as defined in the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. Furthermore, suppliers and subcontractors must comply with the quality and environmental standards that Componenta adheres to.

Componenta respects human rights in its sphere of influence and operates in a transparent and trustworthy manner. Understanding the principles pertaining to respect for human rights is every Componenta employee's responsibility. One key aspect of Componenta's risk management is the whistleblowing channel that employees and other stakeholders can use to report suspected incidents of non-compliance with the company's Code of Conduct, such as violations of human rights.

The most significant role with regard to risks identified in the supply chain is played by Componenta's procurement and sales organizations as well as unitlevel management and the company's senior management. In 2018, Componenta arranged training for all white-collar employees on the company's Code of Conduct, including practices related to human rights. A total of 93% of the Group's white-collar employees attended the training. The training is arranged annually. Componenta aims to increasingly assess potential ethical risks related to business partners before establishing cooperative relationships. The goal is to incorporate transparency and Componenta's Code of Conduct more systematically in procurement and contracting activities. The company will require its new partners to make a written commitment to adherence with Componenta's operating principles in terms of sustainability and sustainable development. Componenta aims to revise its contractual provisions used in procurement in 2019, and the practices required by the company in terms of respecting human rights will be added to the new contractual provisions.

Anti-corruption and bribery

Componenta's most significant risks in terms of anti-corruption and bribery are related to potential violations or negligence concerning Componenta's Code of Conduct in the production chain. Fair competition is a key operating principle for Componenta. It guides the company's conduct towards its competitors and customers as well as its activity in the business community. Componenta or its employees or other parties representing Componenta may not offer, give or receive bribes or any other illegal benefits. Business partners or public authorities must not be offered improper financial benefits in order to promote Componenta's business operations or the company's other benefits. Negligence of anti-corruption and bribery provisions can pose a reputation

risk and a risk of sanctions for Componenta as well as financial losses if production chain partners are not selected based on appropriate criteria related to overall economic considerations. The company's Code of Conduct includes instructions related to, among other things, giving and receiving gifts and hospitality as well as avoiding conflicts of interest. Componenta is a politically independent company.

Componenta's operational programme aimed at the identification and prevention of risks related to corruption and bribery includes training for managers and employees. It is considered important that employees understand what bribery is and how it must be prevented at the level of their practical duties. Componenta's procurement and sales organizations as well as unit-level management and the company's senior management play a significant role in anti-corruption and bribery activities. These groups attended the Code of Conduct training that was arranged for the Group's white-collar employees in 2018 and included discussion about anti-corruption and bribery practices. For more information about the training and the attendance rate, see section "Respect for human rights" above.

Componenta is committed to responsible operations and honesty in accordance with its Code of Conduct. Componenta's Code of Conduct supports the correct procedure in situations where an employee faces an ethical dilemma. Every Componenta employee is encouraged to raise questions about the company's Code of Conduct and report potential observations or suspicions concerning violations. The company's business partners and other stakeholders can also report any observed or suspected violations. Componenta's whistleblowing channel also plays an important role in the reporting of suspected incidents of corruption and bribery. The Code of Conduct training arranged in 2018 also aimed at increasing awareness of the channels provided for reporting potential violations. No reports were made through the whistleblowing channel in 2018.

Componenta is revising the contractual provisions used in procurement in 2019. The company aims to include obligations related to human rights and anti-corruption and bribery in the new contractual provisions. The aim is to require the company's new business partners to make a written commitment to complying with national and international anti-bribery regulations.

Shareholders' equity and capital loans

The Group's equity was positive at the end of the reporting period. The return on equity was 5.6%. Calculating comparison figures is not appropriate because equity was negative at the beginning of 2017.

A loss of equity was reported to the Trade Register on 12 September 2016. The parent company's equity was restored in the 2017 financial statements; hence, the entry was removed from the Trade Register on 8 June 2018.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Componenta Främmestad AB has a loan of EUR 27.0 million, that is classified as an equity instrument, from the Group's divested Turkish subsidiary. The amount is included in shareholder' equity. The loan must be repaid before possible distribution of dividend in the subsidiary in question.

Flagging notifications

Componenta did not receive any flagging notifications in accordance with the Finnish Securities Markets Act in 2018.

Resolutions of the Annual General Meeting

REPORT BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors decides on all the conditions of the issue of shares, stock options and other special rights entitling to shares. Pursuant to the authorization, both new shares may be issued, and treasury shares held by the Company may be transferred. New shares may be issued, and treasury shares held by the Company may be transferred either against payment or without payment. The issue of shares, stock options and other special rights entitling to shares will be carried out in deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive rights (directed issue). There is a weighty financial reason for the deviation from the shareholders' pre- emptive rights because the authorization will be used for the implementation of the Company's incentive plans, such as the implementation of stock options and restricted share plan planned by the Board of Directors. The authorization also includes the right to decide on the issue of new shares without payment to the Company itself.

The authorization is effective until 24 May 2022.

The General Meeting resolved to amend Section 7 in the Articles of Association to reflect the entering into force of the Finnish Auditing Act (1141/2015). After the amendment, Section 7 of the Articles of Association reads as follows:" The Company shall have one auditor which shall be an auditing firm registered with the Auditor Register maintained by the Finnish Patent and Registration Office, the responsible auditor of which is an Authorised Public

Accountant. The term of office of the auditor ends upon the closing of the Annual General Meeting following the auditor's election."

the Group Corporate Executive Team consists of CEO Harri Suutari, Group General Counsel Mervi Immonen, CFO Marko Karppinen and COO Pasi Mäkinen.

Risks and business-related uncertainties

The most significant risks to Componenta's business operations include the risks linked to the operating environment (competitive situation, price risks, commodity risks and environmental risks), business risks (customer, supplier, productivity, production and process risks, labour market disruptions, contractual and product liability risks, personnel and data security risks) as well as financing risks (the risks related to the availability of financing and liquidity as well as currency, interest rate and credit risks). Exchange rate fluctuations are hedged using foreign currency loans and deposits, as well as other natural hedging relationships. Due to the restructuring procedures, the company does not currently achieve the necessary limits for hedging derivative contracts.

Essential for the Group's business operations is the availability of certain commodities, such as recycled steel, pig iron and energy, at competitive prices. The cost risk related to raw materials is primarily managed using price agreements, on the basis of which the product prices are adjusted in line with the changes in the commodity prices. Rising raw material prices may result in more capital employed to working capital than estimated.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Componenta's potential risks related to liquidity and access to working capital may weaken the volume of future trading and reduce the number of orders that will be placed on new products by customers in the future. Volumes may also shrink because of lost customers for commercial reasons.

When assessing the ability to continue as a going concern, the most significant risks and uncertainties related to the restructuring procedures are as follows:

  • Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd will be able to make the payments in accordance with the restructuring programme that will begin in May 2019. A material risk to the success of the restructuring programmes is the availability of working capital, because the main customers will support Componenta with shorter than normal sales terms and because the group companies do not have access to external financing at the moment.
  • The objective of the change of Componenta Främmestad AB's operational model is the structural reduction of committed working capital and need for working capital. Changing the operational model includes the risk that the esti-

mated sales volumes and margins will not be realised if the customers in question switch over to competitors.

● When analysing cash flow and liquidity forecasts for the companies over the next 12 months, the management has estimated the companies' future sales volumes, net sales, EBITDA margins, capital expenditure and working capital needs.

Key events after the financial year

On 14 March 2019, Componenta announced that Componenta Corporation's company in Sweden that provides machining and painting services, Componenta Främmestad AB, will decrease its business operations and has commenced measures to reduce its personnel. A workforce reduction announcement was submitted to the labour authorities of Sweden on 28 February 2019 in preparation for the redundancy of more than a hundred persons. The number of employees made redundant cannot yet be confirmed at this stage. Componenta Främmestad AB employs approximately 200 persons plus approximately 35 agency contract workers. The profitability of Componenta Främmestad AB's business operations has been chronically poor, and the company has been unable to materially improve it. Losing the foundry in Turkey to outside the Group materially reduced the strategic importance of the Swedish

business operations for Componenta Group. Componenta Främmestad AB primarily supplies, machines and paints the products of the Turkish foundry company that used to belong to Componenta Group and was sold in 2017. Part of the foundering will be sent to Främmestad from the Pori foundry in Finland. These deliveries represent approximately 40% of the volumes of the unit in Pori. As a result of this, adjustment measures are also planned at the Pori foundry. The Pori foundry employs approximately 205 persons. Componenta has tried to improve the profitability of its business operations in Sweden by renewing customer contracts. However, the negotiations have not led to the desired result, and because of this, Componenta has been forced to terminate some important customer relationships of Componenta Främmestad AB as unprofitable. In addition, Componenta exceptionally announced in the same announcement its profit guidance for 2019 already at this stage.

Componenta's guidance for 2019

The expiry of the terminated customer relationship contracts will decrease the net sales of the Group in 2019. The value add decreases less in proportion to the net sales, since the Componenta products for the remaining customer relationships, which are classified as core business, are mainly made of the Group's own castings.

Componenta expects continued operations to have net sales of EUR 70-90 million in 2019. It is expected that the EBITDA without items affecting comparability will remain positive. The net sales of continued operations in 2018 was EUR 120.7 million and the adjusted EBITDA was EUR 4.9 million.

Potential fluctuations in exchange rates, higher raw material prices and the general competitive climate may affect the business outlook. Changes to new accounting principles are not estimated to have a significant impact on future financial statements.

Dividend proposal

On 31 December 2018 the distributable equity of the parent company was EUR 15.2 million (EUR 14.2 million). Pursuant to Chapter 9, Section 58 of the Restructuring of Enterprises Act, Componenta cannot distribute dividend between the approval and the conclusion of the restructuring programme. Pursuant to Chapter 14, Section 2 of the Limited Liability Companies Act, the company cannot distribute the company's unrestricted equity to shareholders during the next three years as the company has reduced the share capital for loss coverage on 11 May 2017.

Annual General Meeting

The Annual General Meeting of Componenta Corporation will be held at 1:00 p.m. on 16 May 2019 in Helsinki, Finland. The invitation to the AGM will be published as a separate stock exchange release.

Corporate Governance Statement

Componenta Corporation will publish its Corporate Governance Statement for 2018 as a separate report. Once published, the statement can be read on the company's website at www.componenta.com.

The Group manufactures cast, machined, surface-treated, ready-to-install components and total solutions made up from these. The Group's customers are global manufacturers in the machine building, heavy truck, automotive, construction & mining and farming machinery industries.

The Group's parent company is Componenta Corporation (business ID 1635451-6), whose shares are quoted on the NASDAQ Helsinki stock exchange (Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd). The parent company is domiciled in Helsinki. The registered street address is Teknobulevardi 7 H, FI-01530 Vantaa, Finland.

A copy of the consolidated financial statements can be obtained on the internet at www.componenta. com or from the head office of the Group's parent company at Teknobulevardi 7 H, 01530 Vantaa,

Finland. The financial year for all Group companies is the calendar year and it ends on 31 December.

In its meeting on 11 April 2019, the Board of Directors of Componenta Corporation approved these financial statements for publication. According to the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act, shareholders have the opportunity to approve, reject or amend the financial statements at the Annual General Meeting held after publication. The Annual General Meeting can also amend the financial statements.

Corporate restructuring

The District Court of Helsinki issued its decision regarding the commencement of the restructuring proceedings in respect of Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd on 30 September 2016. The District Court of Helsinki appointed Mr Mika Ilveskero, Attorney-at-Law, from Castrén & Snellman Attorneys to act as an administrator (hereinafter referred to as the "Administrator") in respect of the corporate restructurings of Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd. Furthermore, in connection with both corporate restructurings, the District Court of Helsinki appointed creditor committees, which act as the joint representatives

of the creditors in the restructuring proceedings. Various creditor groups, including secured creditors, trade creditors, creditors with supplier guarantees and other unsecured creditors, are represented in the creditor committees appointed by the court. The creditor committees of Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd have different compositions due to different creditors.

The District Court of Helsinki confirmed the restructuring programme for Componenta Corporation and its subsidiary Componenta Finland Ltd on 23 August 2017. On the basis of the restructuring programme, the unsecured debts of Componenta Corporation were cut by approximately 94% and the lowest-priority debts were cut in their entirety. The secured debts of Componenta Finland Ltd will be paid in their entirety, whereas unsecured debts were cut by 75%. The payment programmes for both companies will commence in May 2019 and end in November 2023.

On 4 August 2017, Componenta Corporation signed an agreement to sell its shareholding in Componenta Dökümcülük Ticaret ve Sanayi A.S., amounting to 93.6% of the company's shares and votes, to Döktaş Metal Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. The transaction was completed on 27 September 2017. The agreement covered all of the company's iron, machine

shop and aluminium business in Turkey. The transaction had no cash flow impact. In connection with the closing of the sale of the shareholding, the Turkish club loan banks discharged Componenta Corporation from all liabilities and obligations based on the club loan agreement, including the discharge from a loan guarantee of EUR 80 million.

Componenta Wirsbo AB and Componenta Arvika AB, both located in Sweden, were declared bankrupt on 17 July 2017. According to the terms of the restructuring programmes, the companies should have paid restructuring debts of some EUR 4.9 million in July 2017. The primary goal was to agree with creditors on postponing payment of the restructuring debts and to arrange refinancing by January 2018. In July 2017, it became clear that arranging external financing and postponing the payment of the restructuring debts until January 2018 was unlikely due to insufficient support from the creditors. Componenta Främmestad AB's restructuring application was approved, and the restructuring proceedings commenced on 1 September 2016.

In 2018, the Group focused on the implementation of restructuring programmes. In March 2018, Componenta Främmestad AB paid its restructuring debt of EUR 2.3 million in external restructuring debt and EUR 0.6 million in salary guarantees to the Swedish government that would have fallen due in July 2018. Componenta sold its property and two parcels of

land in Pietarsaari on 23 February 2018 for the market price. Componenta Corporation's subsidiary Oy Högfors-Ruukki Ab sold the entire share capital of Kiinteistöosakeyhtiö Pietarsaaren Tehtaankatu 13 on 5 April 2018 for the market price. Componenta Finland Ltd sold the shares of Asunto-osakeyhtiö Iisalmen Ahjolansato on 25 June 2018 for the market price. Furthermore, Componenta Corporation sold the shares of Kiinteistöosakeyhtiö Ala-Emali and Kiinteistöosakeyhtiö Ylä-Emali owned by it on 29 August 2018. Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd sold their shares of Karkkilan Koskikiinteistö Oy owned by it on 29 August 2018. Componenta Finland Ltd's subsidiary Karkkilan Valimokiinteistö Oy sold a parcel of land including the buildings on the land on property owned by it in Karkkila on 31 August 2018 for the market price.

The key content of Componenta Corporation's restructuring programme

In Finland, the District Court of Helsinki issued its decision regarding the commencement of the restructuring proceedings in respect of Componenta Corporation on 30 September 2016. The District Court of Helsinki confirmed the restructuring programme for Componenta Corporation on 23 August 2017. On the basis of the restructuring programme, the unsecured debts of Componenta Corporation were cut by approximately 94% as Componenta Corporation was discharged from the Turkish

loan guarantee and the lowest-priority debts were cut in their entirety. The payment programme will commence in May 2019 and end in November 2023. With the confirmation of Componenta Corporation's restructuring programme, the cuts of the company's debt on the balance sheet took effect. On the basis of the debt cuts, the debts on the company's balance sheet decreased by approximately EUR 118 million, which strengthens the company's equity through profit and loss.

During the restructuring programme, the company must sell its real estate companies that are not related to the Group's core business, as well as holdings in them, to parties outside the Group. In addition, the company must sell or dissolve, through liquidation or merger, its non-operational subsidiaries within 18 months of the confirmation of the restructuring programme, to simplify the Group's administrative structure. The company may incur a supplementary payment obligation due to better-than-expected cash flow. Solely the company's unsecured creditors are entitled to supplementary payments. Furthermore, the company may incur a supplementary payment obligation if the final amount of debts that are included in guarantee liabilities, and that have been taken into account as a conditional and maximum amount in the restructuring programme, is lower than the amount recorded in the restructuring programme.

The key content of Componenta Finland Ltd's restructuring programme

In Finland, the District Court of Helsinki issued its decision regarding the commencement of the restructuring proceedings in respect of Componenta Finland Ltd on 30 September 2016. The District Court of Helsinki confirmed the restructuring programmes for Componenta Finland Ltd on 23 August 2017. The secured debts of Componenta Finland Ltd will be paid in their entirety, whereas unsecured debts were cut by 75%. The payment programme will commence in May 2019 and end in November 2023. With the confirmation of Componenta Finland Ltd's restructuring programme, the cuts of the company's debt on the balance sheet took effect. On the basis of the debt cuts, the debts on the company's balance sheet decreased by approximately EUR 28 million, which strengthens the company's equity through profit and loss.

During the restructuring programme, the company must sell its real estate companies that are not related to the Group's core business, as well as holdings in them, to parties outside the Group. In addition, the company must sell or dissolve, through liquidation or merger, its non-operational subsidiaries within 18 months of the confirmation of the restructuring programme, to simplify the Group's administrative structure. The company is also under an obligation to sell its fixed assets that are not related to the business operations. The company may incur

a supplementary payment obligation due to better-than-expected cash flow. Solely the company's unsecured creditors are entitled to supplementary payments. Furthermore, the company may incur a supplementary payment obligation if the final amount of debts that are included in guarantee liabilities, and that have been taken into account as a conditional and maximum amount in the restructuring programme, is lower than the amount recorded in the restructuring programme.

Componenta Främmestad AB's restructuring ruling

Componenta Främmestad AB's restructuring application was approved, and the restructuring proceedings commenced on 1 September 2016. Componenta Främmestad AB received a restructuring ruling from the District Court of Skaraborg on 3 July 2017 and the ruling gained legal force on 24 July 2017. In accordance with the court ruling, the company was to pay restructuring debts of around EUR 2.3 million to creditors outside the Componenta Group, and a salary guarantee of EUR 0.6 million to the Swedish government, within 12 months. The company paid these liabilities in March 2018. The sufficient support by the creditors was a prerequisite for the confirmation of the restructuring programme and it was obtained as Componenta Främmestad AB and Componenta Turkey signed a separate agreement in May 2017 regarding a EUR 10 million restructuring debt receivable of Componenta Turkey. According to the agreement, the debt is cut by 75% and the remaining EUR 2.5 million shall be paid back within a period of six years, after the repayment of the other restructuring debt. The repayment is tied to EBITDA of Componenta Främmestad AB. Componenta Främmestad AB has a capital loan of EUR 27.0 million from the Group's divested Turkish subsidiary. The loan carries no interest and no repayment schedule has been specified for it. The loan should be paid off before a potential distribution of dividends by the subsidiary in question.

Ability to continue as a going concern

The financial statements for the financial year 2018 have been prepared on the going concern basis. It is assumed that Componenta can, during the foreseeable future, realise its assets and pay back its liabilities as part of normal operations within the framework of the restructuring programmes. When assessing the going concern principle, Componenta's management has taken into account the uncertainties and risks related to the various confirmed restructuring programmes, available funding sources and the cash flow estimates for the coming 12 months of the companies under restructuring proceedings. Due to limitations arising from the restructuring programmes, Componenta's assessment is that it has only a limited opportunity to influence how it can transfer cash funds and bank receivables between Group companies (such as the subsidiaries' ability to distribute funds in the form of dividends, Group contributions or intra-Group

loans) and the nature of new financing the Group can acquire. In assessing the ability to continue as a going concern, the management has analysed the impact of the approved restructuring programmes on the financial position and cash flow of the Group, the companies under restructuring proceedings and the parent company.

The Group's liquidity and the company's financial performance as well as the success of the restructuring programmes and financing transactions are affected by the material uncertainty in accordance with the IFRS standards, which the Group management has taken into account when assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern. It is possible that the restructuring is unsuccessful, and the Group companies will file for bankruptcy. The implementation of the restructuring programmes may be unsuccessful due to, for example, the companies under restructuring being unable to repay the restructuring debts confirmed in the restructuring programmes confirmed by the courts, and the creditors in such circumstances being unwilling to renegotiate debt repayment arrangements that the companies would be able to satisfy.

When assessing the ability to continue as a going concern, the most significant risks and uncertainties related to the restructuring procedures are as follows:

● Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd will be able to make the payments in accordance with the restructuring programme

that will begin in May 2019. A material risk to the success of the restructuring programmes is the availability of working capital, because the main customers will support Componenta with shorter-than-normal sales terms and because the group companies do not at the moment have access to external financing.

  • The objective of the change of Componenta Främmestad AB's operational model is the structural reduction of committed working capital and need for working capital. Changing the operational model includes the risk that the projected sales volumes and margins will not be realised if the customers in question switch over to the competition.
  • When analysing cash flow and liquidity forecasts for the companies over the next 12 months, the management has estimated the companies' future sales volumes, net sales, EBITDA margins, capital expenditure and working capital needs.

When preparing cash flow forecasts for the companies, the management has estimated the companies' future sales volumes, net sales, EBITDA margins, capital expenditure and working capital needs. These estimates are subject to significant uncertainty in accordance with the IFRS standards, as there is no certainty that the anticipated sales volumes, sales prices and EBITDA margins will be achieved or that capital expenditure can be implemented as expected.

Basis of preparation of the consolidated financial statements

Componenta Corporation is a Finnish public limited company domiciled in Helsinki. Componenta Group ("Componenta" or "the Group") is composed of Componenta Corporation and its subsidiaries. Componenta's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), applying the IAS and IFRS standards and SIC and IFRIC interpretations in force on 31 December 2018. IFRS standards refers to standards and interpretations as adopted by the EU in accordance with the procedure established in EU regulation (EC) 1606/2002 as required by the Finnish Accounting Act and related provisions. The notes to the consolidated financial statements also conform to Finnish accounting and corporate legislation.

Following the confirmation of the restructuring decision, a restructuring programme supervisor was assigned to Componenta. According to the restructuring programme, the supervisor is required to submit an annual report on the implementation of the restructuring programme as well as a final report at the conclusion of the restructuring programme. At the request of a creditor or the supervisor, the court may order that the restructuring programme is to lapse. Despite the limitations related to control under IFRS 10 Consolidated financial statements, the company believes that the inclusion of Componenta Finland Ltd, Componenta Främmestad AB,

Componenta Wirsbo AB and Componenta Arvika AB in the consolidated financial statements of Componenta is justified and gives a true and accurate picture of the Group's result and financial position.

In the management's opinion, the preparation of a consolidated financial statements is justified because the functions of the company and its consolidated subsidiaries are closely related to each other and are interdependent. Accordingly, Componenta's financial information for the financial year ending on 31 December 2018 is given in consolidated financial statements, which cover the company and its subsidiaries under corporate restructuring as well as other companies under the parent company's control.

Subsidiaries acquired by Componenta are included in the consolidated financial statements from the moment that the Group gains control and divested subsidiaries up to the time the control ends. Intra-corporate shareholdings have been eliminated using the acquisition method. The acquisition consideration, including deferred and contingent consideration, as well as the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, is measured at the acquisition date fair values. The acquisition-related costs are accounted as expenses for the period in which they are incurred. All intra-corporate transactions, receivables, liabilities and unrealised profits, as well as the distribution of profits within the Group have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Discontinued operations

In 2018, Componenta had no discontinued operations.

Componenta Wirsbo AB and Componenta Arvika AB, both located in Sweden, were declared bankrupt on 17 July 2017. According to the terms of the restructuring programmes, the companies should have paid restructuring debts of some EUR 4.9 million in July 2017. The primary goal was to agree with creditors on postponing payment of the restructuring debts and to arrange refinancing by January 2018. In July 2017, it became clear that arranging external financing and postponing the payment of the restructuring debts until January 2018 was unlikely due to insufficient support from the creditors. At the same time, Componenta was negotiating with potential buyers for the forge operations, but the negotiations ended without result.

The consolidation of the statements of financial position of Componenta Wirsbo AB and Componenta Arvika AB was discontinued in July 2017 and their impact on the result is presented in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations, as discontinued operations. In the company's view, the company lost control of Componenta Wirsbo AB and Componenta Arvika AB when they filed for bankruptcy. Following the bankruptcies of Componenta Wirsbo AB and Componenta Arvika AB, the Group no longer has forge operations.

Accounting principles requiring judgment by the management

When consolidated financial statements are being prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, the management needs to make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The following are the estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of material changes in the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

In preparing Componenta's financial statements, the management has exercised significant discretion in evaluating the company's ability to continue as a going concern. The uncertainties related to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern are described in more detail above in the section "Assumption of ability to continue as a going concern." The management has made significant estimates and assumptions in determining the valuation in the financial statements of assets such as investment properties, tangible and intangible assets and inventories, the realisability of deferred tax assets as well as contingent liabilities.

Real estate and land revaluation

Valuations of investment property recorded at fair value, as well as property and land areas used in the Group's own operations, are carried out by independent, qualified, external evaluators, following

each evaluator's own process and the method considered most appropriate for the asset being valued, starting with a review of macroeconomic factors and available market information and ending with the use of an appropriate model and a fair value calculated with this. In the revaluation of fixed assets, the yield value method is used for real estate, the market-based model is used for land areas, and the acquisition cost based model is used for real estate in markets in which there is no active rental market. Valuations may also be based on actual concluded reference deals and their prices if such information has been available and is otherwise suitable for use as a valuation basis. As a rule, in the yield value method, the rental rates are based on the market rents on the date of valuation. The reliability of the valuation is classified as levels 2 and 3, level 3 consisting mainly of industrial properties, for which there is no active market and no price can be derived from observable market data. Determining the fair value of assets requires significant assumptions and, consequently, the valuation of buildings and land involves uncertainty. The valuation is based on the best possible use of the asset and, therefore, the values determined do not correspond to the fair realisable value. According to the restructuring decision, Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd have the obligation during the restructuring programmes to sell investment properties that are not part of their business operations. These assets have been valued at the probable realizable value in the consolidated financial statements.

Impairment of fixed assets

According to the Group's accounting policies, the carrying amounts of tangible and intangible assets are re-examined for potential impairment whenever circumstances indicate a potential impairment. Componenta has tested the tangible and intangible assets for impairment by comparing the carrying amount of an asset and its recoverable amount. Measuring the recoverable amount of the tangible and intangible assets, the management is required to make estimates and assumptions about the tangible and intangible asset groups' future sales cash flows, production costs, discount rates and future capital expenditure required to maintain the assets in their current condition. When making these estimates and assumptions, the management considers the impact of the corporate restructuring proceedings on the cash flows and forecasts. These estimates and assumptions involve risks and uncertainty, and therefore it is possible that as conditions change, these forecasts change, which may affect the assets' recoverable amount.

Inventory measurement

The net realisable value of inventory is assessed on each reporting date. Net realisable value refers to the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less variable selling expenses. Determination of the net realisable value includes the management's estimates on the selling price of inventories.

Ability to utilise deferred tax assets

Discretion is required when evaluating the recognition of deferred tax assets and certain deferred tax liabilities on the balance sheet. Deferred tax assets are recognised only if it is considered likely that they are recoverable, which will depend on the existence of sufficient future taxable income. Assumptions of future taxable income are based on the management's estimates of future cash flows. These estimates of future cash flows are, in turn, dependent on the management's estimates, inter alia, of the future volume of sales, operating expenses and financing costs. The company's ability to accumulate taxable income also depends on general economic, financial, competitive and regulatory factors that are not under its own control. Estimates and assumptions involve risks and uncertainties, and thus it is possible that expectations change as circumstances change. This may affect the amount of deferred tax assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and the amount of temporary differences.

Alternative performance measures in financial reporting

Componenta complies with the instructions of the European Securities and Market Authority (ESMA) regarding alternative performance measures. In addition to the IFRS key figures, the company publishes specific commonly used other key figures that can, in the main, be derived from the income statement and balance sheet. In addition to IFRS key figures, the company discloses alternative performance measures to describe the underlying operational business performance and to enhance comparability between financial periods.

Alternative performance measures released by the company contain key figures measuring operational performance and profitability. These key figures exclude items that are not related to normal business operations and therefore affect comparability. The most common items affecting comparability are capital gains and losses, inefficiencies in production related to plant closures, extraordinary writedowns, or reversals of write-downs, expenses due to accidents and natural disasters, provisions for planned restructuring, environmental matters and penalties. All items resulting from deconsolidation and presented under discontinued operations are classified as affecting comparability. In connection with the restructuring proceedings, the company's debt has been cut and, on the basis of the cuts in debts, composition income has been created. This income is classified as items affecting comparability. The Group's management exercises discretion in making decisions regarding the classification of items affecting comparability.

Componenta publishes the following performance measures adjusted by items affecting comparability: "Adjusted turnover", "Adjusted EBITDA" and "Adjusted operating profit". In addition, Componenta presents EBITDA as an alternative performance measure. The performance measures adjusted by

items affecting comparability are unaudited, as are the items affecting comparability.

Exchange rate differences of operative balance sheet items

The foreign currency receivables and liabilities of the parent company and subsidiaries domiciled in the euro area are translated into euros at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. The foreign currency receivables and liabilities of Group companies outside the euro area are translated into the functional currency of the respective Group company at the exchange rate on the closing date.

The foreign exchange rate differences arising from accounts payables and accounts receivables are presented under other operating income together with any related hedging results. Exchange rate differences arising from borrowings, deposits and cash and cash equivalents together with any related hedging results are recognised under financial income and expenses.

Operative exchange rate differences arise, for example, from foreign currency accounts payables and accounts receivables and also from other operative foreign currency denominated receivables and payables. The impact on the result of derivatives that are hedging operative foreign currency position has also been included by definition in the operative exchange rate differences.

The new applied standards

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting principles as in 2017, with the exception of the following amended standards that the Group has applied as of 1 January 2018:

● IFRS 9, Financial Instruments

The IFRS 9 standard, Financial Instruments, will replace the IAS 39 standard, Financial Instruments: entering and valuation. The new standard specifies the classification and valuation of financial assets and liabilities, the specification of their depreciation as well as the principles of hedge accounting application. Additionally, IFRS 9 introduces expanded disclosure requirements and changes in presentation. Componenta adopted the standard on 1 January 2018 according to the simplified retrospective approach, in which case the overall impact of adopting IFRS 9 will be shown as an equity adjustment in the opening balance. The accounting of financial liabilities has not changed after adopting the new standard.

The Group does not currently hold any other investments or derivatives, that is, financial assets and liabilities valued at the fair value subject to the IFRS 9 standard. Hence, for financial assets, the standard is only applied to accounts receivables and other receivables. The effect of the IFRS 9 standard at Componenta is evident

in the value adjustment of the estimated uncertain receivables formed by the application of the expected credit loss model. Componenta uses a simplified approach when specifying the credit loss risk of accounts receivables. The expected credit losses are assessed and entered in accordance with the accounts receivable age analysis on the basis of the classification. The history information and knowledge of the customers' payment behaviour are also taken into account. Previously realised credit losses have remained at a low level as a result of Componenta's financially sound global customers. The application of the new expected credit loss model has not had a material effect on the Componenta Group. As a result of this, the comparative figures from 2017 have not been corrected. On 31 December 2018, Componenta entered in accordance with the new expected credit loss model EUR 0.1 million in the credit losses of the result and the accounts receivables of the bal-

  • IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The IFRS 15 standard, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, replaced IAS 11, Construction Contracts, and IAS 18, Revenue, and the related interpretations. Componenta retrospectively applied the standard in full on 1 January 2018. The IFRS 15 standard includes a five-step model for recognising sales revenue from contracts with customers.

Sales revenue is only entered according to the agreed amount, or transaction price, taking into account potential discounts. The customers will agree to the transaction prices by signing the contract. The Group does not have any long-

term contracts in which the period of time from the moment the company hands over the promised goods to the customer to when the customer pays for the goods is longer than one year. As a result, no material transaction price changes occur in the Group for performance obligations.

The Group's responsibility for offering compensation for faulty products within normal warranty periods will be entered as a qualification in accordance with IAS 37 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets.

The effects of the IFRS 15 standard that was adopted on 1 January 2018 have been assessed. Consequently, it was stated that the standard had no material effect on the Group's revenue recognition. In accordance with IAS 18 Revenue, the sales revenue was recorded when the significant risks pertaining to the ownership of the goods were transferred to the customer, whereas in accordance with the new IFRS 15 standard, the sales revenue will not be entered until control is transferred to the customer. The risks linked to the ownership of goods and the time of transferring control are identical at Componenta. Hence, the new standard did not have an effect on the income statement, balance sheet or cash flow of the financial year or the previous financial year. Hence, the financial information from 2017 has not been corrected.

Componenta manufactures and sells iron casts and machined iron casts. Componenta records

the sales revenue when it has fulfilled its performance obligation by handing over the agreed goods to the customers. Componenta meets the performance obligation at one moment. Control is transferred to the customer when the goods have been delivered to the location of the customer's choosing in accordance with the terms of delivery. After the transfer of control, the customer may decide the use of the goods and receive a material part of the existing use of the goods. In practice, the customers use Componenta's products to produce their own products, adding value to their own products.

The majority of Componenta's customers are major, financially stable, global companies. The amount of expected credit losses from these customers is low. The credit loss allocation is based on historical and customer-specific reports. The implementation of IFRS 15 did not have a material impact on the transactions and balances recognized in consolidated financial statements.

Upcoming new and amended standards and interpretations not yet effective in 2018

The following new standards published by IASB (International Accounting Standards Board) are believed to be significant for Componenta's business operations and financial position once they are applied.

● IFRS 16, Leases

Componenta will adopt the new IFRS 16 Leases

standard as of 1 January 2019 (effective for financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019). The standard includes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. As a result of the application of the new standard, nearly all leases will be recognised on the balance sheet because operating leases and finance leases will no longer be separated from each other. According to the new standard, the asset (the right to use the leased asset) and the lease liability are recognised. The only exceptions are short-term leases and leases where the underlying asset has a low value. There will be no significant changes in the lessor accounting procedure.

In adoption of the standard Componenta will apply the modified retrospective method and consequently the comparative financials will not be restated. Based on the preliminary simulation, the adoption of IFRS 16 will have impacts on certain key ratios. The expectation is that net debts will increase, and EBITDA will improve. Additionally, impacts are expected in cash flow. Cash flow from financing activities is expected to decrease and cash flow from operations is expected to improve. The amount of Componenta's other leasing commitments outside the balance sheet at the end of the financial year was EUR 0.6 million.

Other published IFRS standards or IFRIC interpretations that are not yet effective are not expected to have material impact on the Group.

Accounting principles

Revenue recognition

The revenue streams consist of the sale of goods and services. The main sales products are non-machined, machined and painted iron cast components. Sales revenue that is insignificant, is received from the leasing of office space and industrial premises.

The sale of sold products to customers will be recognized when disposed, that is the moment when the customer assumes control of the goods. The control of goods is transferred to the customer when the goods have been delivered to the location of the customer's choosing in accordance with the terms of delivery. After the transfer of control, the customer may decide the use of the goods and receive a material part of the existing use of the goods. In practice, the customers use Componenta's products to produce their own products, adding value to their own products.

Sales revenue is only entered according to the agreed amount, or transaction price, taking into account potential discounts. The customers will agree to the transaction prices by signing the contract. The Group does not have any long-term contracts in which the period of time from the moment the company hands over the promised goods to the customer to when the customer pays for the goods is longer than one year. As a result, no material transaction price changes occur in the Group for performance obligations. The Group companies offer compensation for faulty products within normal warranty periods.

**) There were write-downs in tangible assets EUR 0.0 (-1.5) million for Swedish business operations. The weighted average cost of capital used in the impairment tests for the Finnish companied was 7.3% (8.1%). The decrease in discount rate is mainly an outcome of the decreased expenses regarding the average cost of equity. A write-down of EUR 0,4 million in 2018 has been recorded on a moulding line in Pori, the so called Disa line.

Accounting principles

Planned depreciation, except for production machinery and equipment, is calculated on a straight-line basis on the original acquisition cost, based on the estimated useful economic life. The Group uses the units-of-production depreciation method for production machinery and equipment, in which the amount of depreciation is based on the actual output of production machinery and equipment. The units-of-production method gives a more precise picture of the actual economic wear on production machinery and equipment than the straightline method, especially when capacity utilisation rates change quickly. Estimated useful economic lives by asset group are as follows:

capitalised development costs 5 years
intangible rights 3– 10 years
other intangible assets 3–20 years
buildings and constructions 25–40 years
IT equipment 3–
5 years
other machinery and equipment 5–25 years

Accounting principles

Consolidated direct taxes include direct taxes based on the taxable profit of Group companies, calculated according to tax legislation in each company's domicile. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised on the balance sheet in full and deferred tax assets to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are calculated from all the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes, using the tax rate in force on the balance sheet date. Future changes in tax rates are taken into account when they have become, in practice, certain.

The interests after deferred taxes have been taken into account as a factor reducing the result for the period attributable to equity holders of the parent company when calculating the earnings per share. Due to the write down of the accrued and unpaid interest and 100% debt cut on the hybrid loans in the restructuring programme, there is no accrued and unpaid interests on these loans for the financial period 2018. The profit for the period attributable to the equity holders of the parent company presented in the consolidated income statement was EUR 1.0 million (124.1 million).

Accounting principles

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the result for the period attributable to shareholders of the parent company by the weighted average number of outstanding shares during the financial year. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of shares by the effect of potential diluting shares due to share options and share-based incentive plan in the Group.

*) The accounting principles for the consolidated financial statements contain further information about the treatment of changes in the value of land and buildings. According to the accounting principles for the consolidated financial statements, changes in the value of land and buildings are measured at three year intervals. The previous revaluation process throughout the Group was carried out in 2015. The valuation is mainly based on the income approach. The difference in book value and fair value of buildings and land EUR 0.0 million is booked through other comprehensive income items under discontinued operations, for the part that it has in previous years been booked at revaluation reserve. The Group buildings and land revaluation reserve under equity stood, after deferred taxes, at EUR 0,0 (0.0) million. The current treatment of revaluation in the accounting principles was introduced in 2012. The reliability of the valuation of property is classified as Level 3, in other words there is no active market for these mainly industrial properties and the price cannot be deduced from verifiable market data. The valuation is based on the income approach and determining the fair value involves considerable discretion.

**) Write-downs, under continued operations, on machinery and equipment included in tangible assets in Swedish business operations were EUR 0.0 (-1.5) million.

Capital expenditure on tangible assets during the financial period totalled EUR 1.5 (1.7) million. Componenta has terminated one significant customer contract in the financial period. As part of the adjustment measures a write-down of EUR 0.4 million has been recorded on a moulding line in Pori, the so called Disa line.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT

PARENT COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Accounting principles

Property, plant and equipment is recorded on the balance sheet at original acquisition cost less planned depreciation and write-downs, except for land areas, buildings and constructions. The acquisition cost includes all costs directly incurred by the purchase of the asset.

Componenta uses the revaluation model permitted by IAS 16 Leases, according to which land areas, buildings and constructions are recorded at fair value, which is based on assessments made by independent evaluators, and for buildings is the fair value less depreciation after the revaluation. Land and water areas are not depreciated. Measurements of value are made sufficiently regularly so that the fair value of a revalued asset does not differ materially from its carrying amount. Valuations of assets subject to revaluation are carried out at a maximum of three-year intervals. However, valuations are carried out more frequently if substantial changes are about to take place that may affect the valuation of the assets. Valuations are carried out by independent, qualified, external evaluators in Finland and Sweden, following each evaluator's own process and the method considered most appropriate for the asset being valued, starting with a review of macroeconomic factors and available market information and ending with the use of an appropriate model and a fair value calculated with this. The valuation is based on what is probably the most productive use of the asset and on valuation models where the input used portrays the facts and conditions of each economic environment (such as level of employment, general economic situation, recent transactions). In the revaluation of fixed assets, the yield value method is used for real estate, the market-based model is used for land areas, and the acquisition cost based model is used for real estate in markets in which there is no active rental market. During the financial year that ended on 31 December 2016, valuations were made for all the company's asset items located in Finland and being revalued, and entries based on these have been made to the values of the assets. The values determined do not reflect the fair realisation value of the asset. In the revaluation of fixed assets, the yield value method is used for real estate, the market-based model is used for land areas, and the acquisition cost based model is used for real estate in markets in which there is no active rental market. Valuations may also be based on actual concluded reference deals and their prices if such information has been available and is otherwise suitable for use as a valuation basis. As a rule, in the yield value method, the rental rates are based on the market rents on the date of valuation. The reliability of the valuation is classified as levels 2 and 3, level 3 consisting mainly of industrial properties, for which there is no active market and no price can be derived from observable market data. Determining the fair value of assets requires significant assumptions and, consequently, the valuation of buildings and land involves uncertainty. During the financial year that ended on 31 December 2016, valuations were made for all the company's asset items located in Finland and being revalued, and entries based on these have been made to the values of the assets. The valuation is based on the best possible use of the asset and, therefore, the values determined do not correspond to the fair realisable value.

Accumulated depreciation is eliminated when an item is revalued against the gross carrying amount of the asset, and the net amount is adjusted so that it corresponds to the value based on the revaluation of the asset. Increases in the carrying amounts resulting from the revaluation of land areas, buildings and constructions bare recorded in other comprehensive income and are presented under shareholders' equity in other reserves. Reductions that offset increases in value previously recognised for the same asset are recognised in other comprehensive income and are deducted from other reserves in shareholders' equity, and all other reductions are recognised in the income statement. The difference between the depreciation recorded in the income statement based on the revalued carrying amount and the depreciation based on the original cost of the asset is transferred each year from other reserves to retained earnings.

Maintenance and repair costs are usually recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred. Major refurbishment costs are capitalised and depreciated over their estimated useful life if these costs are likely to increase the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which they relate. Spare parts for production machinery, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment are presented as tangible assets when they comply with the definition of property, plant and equipment. Otherwise these assets are classified as inventory. As a rule, the depreciation period after installation is 3 years.

Planned depreciation, except for production machinery and equipment, is calculated on a straightline basis on the original acquisition cost, based on the estimated useful economic life. The Group uses the units-of-production depreciation method for production machinery and equipment, in which the amount of depreciation is based on the actual output of production machinery and equipment. The units-of-production method gives a more precise picture of the actual economic wear on production machinery and equipment than the straightline method, especially when capacity utilisation rates change quickly. Estimated useful economic lives by asset group are as follows:

buildings and constructions 25 – 40
years
computing equipment 3 – 5 years
other machinery and equipment 5 – 25
years
other tangible assets 3 – 1
0
years.

Impairment of assets

The carrying amounts of the Group's assets are reviewed on each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the balance sheet value of the asset exceeds the recoverable amount for the asset. The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its net selling price and value in use. As a rule, value in use is based on the estimated discounted future net cash flows obtainable through the asset. Due to the inherent uncertainties arising from the restructuring programmes, and also partially due to operational challenges and lower yield expectations, the Group has recorded in 2017 an impairment of EUR 1.5 million on Componenta Främmestad AB's machinery and equipment. The impairment is mainly due to lower yield expectations. The assets are tested for impairment either by using future cash flows or sales prices of the assets.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT

PARENT COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

According to the Group's accounting policies, the carrying amounts of tangible and intangible assets are re-examined for potential impairment whenever circumstances indicate a potential impairment. Componenta has tested the tangible and intangible assets for impairment by comparing the carrying amount of an asset and its recoverable amount. Measuring the recoverable amount of the tangible and intangible assets, the management is required to make estimates and assumptions about the tangible and intangible asset groups' future sales cash flows, production costs, discount rates and future capital expenditure required to maintain the assets in their current condition. When making these estimates and assumptions, the management takes into account the impact of the corporate restructuring proceedings on the cash flows and forecasts. These estimates and assumptions involve risks and uncertainty, and therefore it is possible that as conditions change, these forecasts change, which may affect the assets' recoverable amount.

Other inventories include mainly patterns, fixtures, tools and spareparts.

Accounting principles

Inventories are stated at the lower of acquisition cost and net realisable value. The acquisition cost is based on the FIFO principle. The acquisition cost of manufactured products and work in progress includes the cost of raw materials, direct labour costs, other direct costs as well as a proportion of variable and fixed production overheads. Also, those spare-parts which are not recorded, by definition, under property, plant and equipment, are recorded under inventories.

The net realisable value of inventory is assessed on each reporting date. Net realisable value refers to the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less variable selling expenses. Determination of the net realisable value includes the management's estimates on the selling price of inventories.

Credit risk

Componenta's credit risk is related to receivables that are accounts receivables from delivered products. Group companies are primarily responsible for the risks related to customer receivables. The Group Treasury sets guidelines and monitors credit risk management, and evaluates the creditworthiness and ability of customers to fulfill their payment obligations. The collection of customer receivables is carried out in accordance with the Group's debt collection policy.

The credit loss provision for accounts receivables is estimated on the basis of the quality and aging of the receivables by adjusting the customer receivables based on the customer's previous 12-month payment behavior to the receivable open at the time of the financial statements. The effect of the IFRS 9 Financial instruments at Componenta is evident in the value adjustment of the estimated uncertain receivables formed by the application of the expected credit loss model. On 31 December 2018, Componenta entered in accordance with the new expected credit loss model EUR 0.1 million in the credit losses of the result and the accounts receivables of the balance sheet.

Accounts receivables are receivables that result from selling goods or delivering services to customers in the ordinary course of business. Other receivables are contract assets, other accrued income and financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Accounts receivables and other receivables are classified as current assets if customer payment is expected to be received within one year. Otherwise they are presented as non-current assets. The expected credit losses are assessed and entered in accordance with the accounts receivable age analysis on the basis of the classification. The history information and knowledge of the customers' payment behaviour are also taken into account. Changes in impairment loss for doubtful accounts receivable are recognized as expenses in the consolidated statement of income.

Componenta does not invoice sales in advance. The order book includes the confirmed customer orders for the following two months.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are netted on the balance sheet primarily on a countryby-country basis when the country in question allows the balancing of taxable profits and losses between Group companies or when there is only one subsidiary in the country in question.

The net amount of deferred tax assets, which mainly consist of unused tax losses, was EUR 0.0 million (EUR 0.0 million) and the value of deferred tax liabilities was EUR 2.4 million (EUR 2.2 million). In 2017, a EUR 0.3 million write-down was made for deferred tax assets due to a hybrid bond interest write-down. Due to the significant inherent uncertainties arising from the restructuring proceedings, as well as partially due to operational challenges and lower yield expectations, the Group has recorded in its financial statements in Finland and Sweden an impairment of EUR 0.0 million (EUR 0.0 million) in the deferred tax assets related to tax losses.

Accounting principles

Deferred tax assets for confirmed losses or for losses for the financial period have only been recognised to the extent to which it is probable that future profits will be generated that can be offset with the temporary differences. If a Group company has in the recent past made a loss,

a deferred tax asset is only recorded to the extent that the company has sufficient taxable temporary differences or some other convincing proof of its ability to make use of the tax loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised only if it is considered likely that they are recoverable, which will depend on the existence of sufficient future taxable income. Assumptions of future taxable income are based on the management's estimates of future cash flows. These estimates of future cash flows are, in turn, dependent on the management's estimates, inter alia, of the future volume of sales, operating expenses and financing costs. The company's ability to accumulate taxable income also depends on general economic, financial, competitive and regulatory factors that are not under its own control. Estimates and assumptions involve risks and uncertainties, and thus it is possible that expectations change as circumstances change. This may affect the amount of deferred tax assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and the amount of temporary differences.

A deferred tax liability is recognised for the retained earnings of subsidiaries only if it can be considered that the tax payment will take place in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax liabilities have been calculated by using effective tax rates.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are offset on the balance sheet in so far as they have the same recipient of the tax and when they can be allocated to each other. Because of the material uncertainty related to the companies ability to continue as a going concern, no net deferred tax assets have been recognised in Finland and Sweden in the 2018 financial statements.

According to the restructuring programme confirmed on 23 August 2017, the group should sell all its investment properties during the restructuring programme. Componenta has executed this programme by selling almost all its investment properties in 2018. The remaining investment properties are recognised as EUR 0,0 million. While executing the restructuring programme in 2017 purchase offers were received, which gave indications of the market value of the properties. The fair values in 2017 were based on these indications. Based on the purchase offers some of the investment properties, some EUR 1.5 million, were classified as held for sale according to IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.

Accounting principles

The real estate companies within the group hold land areas and buildings, which the group do not have in own use and from which the group recognise rental income. Therefor these real estate companies are classified as investment properties according to IAS 40 Investment Property. The group applies the fair value model for measuring the investment properties. The fair value reflects the market conditions at the end of the reporting period with no transaction costs incurred.

Valuations of investment properties recorded at fair value, as well as properties and land areas used in the Group's own operations, are carried out by professionally qualified and independent external valuators. These external valuators carry out the valuations by following each valuator's own process and the method considered most appropriate for the asset being valuated, starting with a review of macroeconomic factors and available market information and ending with the use of an appropriate model and a fair value calculated with this. In the revaluation of fixed assets, the yield value method is used for real estate, the market-based model is used for land areas, and the acquisition cost based model is used for real estates in markets in which there is no active rental market. Valuations may also be based on actual concluded reference deals and their prices if such information has been available and is otherwise suitable for use as a valuation basis. As a rule, in the yield value method, the rental rates are based on the market rents on the date of the valuation. determining the fair value of assets requires significant assumptions and, consequently, the valuation of buildings and land involves uncertainty. The valuation is based on the best possible use of the asset and, therefor, the values determined do not correspond to the fair realisable value. According to the restructuring decision, Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd have the obligation during the restructuring programmes to sell investment properties that are not part of their business operations. These assets have been valued at the probable realisable value in the consolidated financial statements.

Investment properties are not depreciated. Gains and losses arising from change in the fair value of investment properties are recognised in profit or loss for the period in which they arise and are presented in other operating income in the income statement. Rental income from investment properties is recorded in the Group's net sales.

Non-current assets held for sale represent investment properties held for sale. Due to the restructuring programme the company should sell the real estate companies that are not part of the company's core business. The implementations of restructuring programmes have proceeded as planned and all non-current assets held for sale in 2017 have been sold during 2018. In 2017 some of the real estate companies, EUR 1.5 million, that met the requirements of IFRS 5, were classified as Non-current assets held for sale. The investment properties were measured at fair value and in fiscal year 2017 an impairment charge of EUR -2.6 million was recognised. The investment properties are provided in note 18.

Accounting principles

Componenta classifies some of its real estate companies as non-current assets held for sale according ti IFRS 5, because the comparable booking value will be carried mainly from selling the asset. Investment properties are measured at fair value.

In 2018 the Board of Directors resolved, authorised by the General Annual Meeting, to implement two new share-based incentive plans for the key emplyees, a Stock Option Plan and a Restricted Share Plan.

In 2017 the General Annual Meeting resolved to reduce the Company's share capital by EUR -20.9 million for loss coverage. This amount was recognised in retained earnings primarily for covering losses from reporting periods before 2016 and secondary for covering losses from reporting period 2016.

In 2017 the General Annual Meeting resolved to reduce the Company's share premium reserve by EUR -15.1 million for loss coverage. This amount was recognised in retained earnings primarily for covering losses from reporting periods before 2016 and secondary for covering losses from reporting period 2016. The share premium reserve contains the amount paid for shares in a share issue that exceeds the nominal value of the share if the decision concerning the issue of convertible capital notes on which the subscriptions are based was made before the 2006 change in the Finnish Company Act. The amount exceeding the nominal value when converting convertible capital notes issued after the new Company Act came into force (1 September 2006) is recognised in the unrestricted equity reserve. Cash flow hedges include the valuations of commodity derivatives. The fair value changes in effective portion of hedging instruments in hedging reserve, before taxes, was EUR 0.0 (0.1) million,

the amount released to income statement from the hedging reserve, before taxes, was EUR 0.0 (0.0) million and the change of deferred taxes in hedging reserve was EUR 0.0 (0.0) million.

In 2017 the General Annual Meeting resolved to reduce the Company's unrestricted equity reserve by EUR -197,7 million for loss coverage. This amount was recognised in retained earnings primarily for covering losses from reporting periods before 2016 and secondary for covering losses from reporting period 2016. The net effect of changes in the current financial year was affected by costs of issuing shares EUR -2.9 million and credit fees for convertible bonds EUR -3.6 million. In May 2016 Componenta issued EUR 40 million convertible capital loan. By the end of the 2016 interim financial statements period 78,868,000 shares had been converted and the capital loans used for payments for the conversions were EUR 39.4 million, netted with the transaction costs, EUR -0.6 million, related to the issue of the capital loan, and recorded as an increase under Unrestricted equity reserve. By the end of the 2017 interim financial statements period 1,132,000 shares had been converted and the convertible bonds EUR 0.6 million used for payments for the conversions were recorded as an increase under Unrestricted equity reserve.

The building and land area revaluation reserve presents the impact on shareholders' equity of the revaluation of these assets. The change resulting from revaluation presented in comprehensive income, excluding non-controlling interest, after deferred tax was EUR 0.0 million (EUR 0.0 million).

OTHER INFORMATION

Other reserves include the conversion option component of the convertible capital notes EUR 2.5 (2.5) million, share-based payments EUR 0.0 (0.0) million according to IFRS 2 Share-based payment. Legal reserve EUR 0.0 (0.0) million is also included in other reserves. In 2017 the General Annual Meeting resolved to reduce the Company's legal reserve by EUR 5 thousand for loss coverage. This amount was recognised in retained earnings primarily for covering losses from reporting periods before 2016 and secondary for covering losses from reporting period 2016. The remaining hybrid bond EUR 2.6 million was cut by 100% in the third quarter of year 2017 in accordance with the restructuring programme after being classified as a lowest priority loan. At the end of reporting period 2018 other reserves included non-interest bearing capital loan in total EUR 27.0 (27.0) million in Componenta Främmestad AB.

The cumulative translation differences EUR -0.1 (-0.9) million in the Statement of changes in consolidated shareholders' equity contain the translation differences arising from translating the financial statements of non-Euro area business units. The cumulative translation differences are mainly related to the changes in Swedish crown.

Pursuant to Chapter 9 Section 58 of the Restructuring of Enterprises Act it is forbidden to pay dividend between confirmation and end of the restructuring programme. Also, pursuant to Chapter 14 Section 2.2 of the Limited Liability Company Act, the company may not distribute the unrestricted equity to the shareholders during three years, since the company has redused the share capital for loss coverage on 11 May, 2017.

21 Capital management

Componenta Group's objective for capital management is to ensure the Group's viability to operate in all circumstances. The sector in which Group operates is by nature relatively capital intensive and thus requires active measures to optimize the capital structure.

The Board of Directors and Corporate Executive Team regularly monitor the capital structure of the Group. The Group monitors in particular the compliance of the restructuring programme and no separate target is set on the equity ratio. The equity ratio increased from previous year and stood at 39.3% (34.8%). The net gearing increased from previous year and stood at -17.5% (-16.2%).

22 Share-based payment

Share-based incentive scheme

The Board of Directors of Componenta Corporation has resolved to implement two new sharebased incentive plans for the Group key employees, a Stock Option Plan and a Restricted Share Plan. The Board of Directors resolved on the new stock option plan by virtue of an authorization granted by the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on 24 May 2018.

A maximum of 20 key employees, including the members of the Corporate Executive Team, belong to the target group of the stock option plan. The Restricted Share Plan is intended for approximately 15 key employees resolved by the Board of Directors, including the members of the Corporate Executive Team.

The reward from the Restricted Share Plan 2018 will be based on the key employee's valid employment or service and the continuation of work during the vesting period. The Restricted Share Plan is intended for key employees. The rewards to be paid on the basis of the Restricted Share Plan 2018 correspond to the value of a maximum total of 1,999,500 Componenta Corporation shares including also the proportion to be paid in cash. The total dilution of the stock option plan and the restricted share plan is 4.99%, in the maximum, if all shares to be subscribed for and to be paid as reward (including the cash proportion of the restricted share reward) on the basis of the plans are new shares.

Options

During financial period 2018 Componenta resolved of one option programme. The purpose of the stock options is to encourage the key employees to work on a long-term basis to increase the shareholder value. The purpose is also to retain the key employees at the company.

The maximum total number of stock options issued is 7,320,500, and they entitle their owners to subscribe for a maximum total of 7,320,500 new shares in the company or existing shares held by the company. The stock options are issued gratuitously. Of the stock options, 2,430,000 are marked with the symbol 2018A, 2,445,250 are marked with the symbol 2018B and 2,445,250 are marked with the symbol 2018C. The share subscription period, for stock options 2018A, will be 1 December 2021—30 November 2023, for stock options 2018B, 1 December 2022—30 November 2024, and for stock options 2018C, 1 December 2023—30 November 2025. At the end of 2018 Componenta had no outstanding options. In 2018 the Board of Directors resolved on stock option 2018A.

Restricted share plan

The reward from the Restricted Share Plan 2018 will be based on the key employee's valid employment or service and the continuation of work during the vesting period. The reward will be paid partly in the company´s shares and partly in cash after the expiry of a 36 month vesting period by the end of December 2021, at the latest. The cash proportion is intended to cover taxes and tax-related costs arising from the reward to the key employee.

The Restricted Share Plan is intended for approximately 15 key employees resolved by the Board of Directors, including the members of the Corporate Executive Team. The rewards to be paid on the basis of the Restricted Share Plan 2018 correspond to the value of a maximum total of 1,999,500 Componenta Corporation shares including also the proportion to be paid in cash.

Accounting principles

The fair value of granted options from option programmes has been determined at the grant date and will be recognised as an expense over the vesting period. The fair value is calculated by using the Black-Scholes option price model. At each consolidated statement of financial position date, the Group revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable and recognise the impact of the revision of original estimates as an expense in the statement of income. When options are exercised, the impacts of changes in the share capital which exceed the accounting par value of the shares are included in the paid-up unrestricted equity reserve.

Componenta has two share-based incentive plans for the Corporate Executive Team and the Group key employees, a Stock Option Plan and a Restricted Share Plan. Pursuant to the share ownership plans, the reward to the management will be settled as a combination of shares and cash when the criteria set in the terms and conditions for the plan are met. The key employee's valid employment or service and the continuation of work during the vesting period are key conditions.

The reward from the Restricted Share Plan will be based on the key employee's valid employment or service and the continuation of work during the vesting period. The rewards to be paid on the basis of the incentive plan correspond to the value of shares including also the proportion to be paid in cash. At each statement of financial position date, the Group revises its estimates of the number of shares, of the share-based incentive plan, that are expected to be distributed. The expense will be recognized over the vesting period. This estimate will be revised at each consolidated statement of financial position date and the impact of the revision of original estimates will be recognized in the statement of income. 57

Pension obligations

Most of the Group's pension plans are defined contribution plans. In Sweden Componenta has pension scheme, Alecta ITP, classified as multi-employer defined benefit scheme. However, since Alecta has not been able to supply the required actuarial valuations, the Swedish pension plan has been treated as defined contribution plan in accordance with IAS 19 Employee benefits (30 a).

Other benefit plans

The Group has no other benefit plans on 31 December 2018, that would generate commitments.

Accounting principles

A provision is recognised on the balance sheet when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that the obligation will have to be settled, and the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated. If it is possible to obtain compensation for some of the obligation from a third party, the compensation is recognised as a separate asset item, but only when it is, in practice, certain that the compensation will be obtained.

A provision for restructuring is recognised when the Group has drawn up a detailed restructuring plan and restructuring has either commenced or the plan has been announced publicly.

25 Financial risks and instruments

The target of management of financial risks related to business operations of Componenta Group is to hedge the profit and the balance sheet of the Group. In the long-term the Group is always exposed to economic risks. Therefore, the amount of financial risks is aimed to be limited to acceptable level by using financial instruments commonly used in the financial markets. The administration of the financial risks is mainly centralized to Group Treasury. Because of the restructuring programmes also local agreements for financing or hedging of foreign exchange risks may be possible providing the terms are accepted by the Group.

Financing and liquidity risks

CONTENTS CEO'S REVIEW

In the near future, the financing and liquidity risks of Componenta Group are related to the implementation of the corporate restructuring programmes currently underway. The Group's ability to continue as a going concern depends on that the companies in Finland and Componenta Främmestad in Sweden are able to make the payments stipulated in the approved restructuring programmes. The sufficiency of working capital present a risk to the implementation of the restructuring programmes, as at the moment the Group does not have external financing available.

The company thinks that the corporate restructuring in Finland and Sweden will recover and develop the business in the future. When assessing the ability to continue as a going concern, one of the most significant risks and uncertainties relate to the ability of Componenta Corporation and Componenta Finland Ltd to make the payments in accordance with the restructuring programmes. At the time of financial statements 2018 Componenta Främmestad AB still has the restructuring liability of EUR 2.5 million to the former Turkish subsidiary Componenta Döcümcüluk. The debt will be paid off in 6 years time, and the repayment is tied to EBITDA of Componenta Främmestad AB.

The ongoing restructuring processes affect significantly the development of the refinancing and liquidity risks. See. more details in the paragraph 'Corporate restructuring' in the Accounting Principles for the Consolidated Financial Statements.

At the end of the reporting period 31 December 2018, Componenta's cash and cash equivalents totalled EUR 5.3 (5.5) million.

*) For finance leases, repayments of the finance lease liability and interest expenses are used as a sufficient approximation of actual rents paid. Only changes in interest rates cause a small difference in the actual cash flow. The interest to be paid has been calculated with prevailing nominal interest rates. The actual interest payments on variable interest contracts will, therefore, probably differ slightly from the figures presented in the table.

**) Other loans in 2018 are interest bearing restructuring liabilities under guarantee and a hire purchase credit for a machine. Other loans in 2017 are interest bearing restructuring liabilities under guarantee.

The figures have not been discounted to correspond to their present values. The figures are valid only on the closing date and the amount of interest on floating rate contracts may vary from actual cash flows. The repayment table for financial liabilities is not meant to portray the Group's expected total cash flow.

Foreign exchange risk

The Group's foreign exchange risk is divided into transaction risk, which arises from income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies, and translation risk, which arises from equity investments and related profit or loss denominated in foreign currencies. The transaction position is calculated from the foreign currency denominated accounts receivables and accounts payables in the balance sheet and initial exposures derived from the highly probable forecasted foreign currency cash flows. The highly probable period is defined normally within 1-6 months but the highly probable period can be extended up to 12 months. These form the part of the transaction position in which changes affect 'Operating profit'. The other part of transaction exposure includes items where the impact of changes in exchange rates are recorded in the income statement in 'Financial income and expenses' such as foreign currency cash in hand and at bank and the Group's internal and external foreign currency loans and loan receivables.

The translation position is determined from the shareholders' equity and retained earnings of those foreign subsidiary and associated companies of the Group whose business currency is not the euro. The translation risk to the Group's equity is related to the Swedish subsidiary as their equity denominated in local currency is converted to euros.

To hedge against changes in exchange rates, the Group uses foreign currency loans and deposits and other natural hedging relationships. In addition, it can be used common derivative instruments such as foreign currency forward contracts and options, for which pricing on the market is reliable. Foreign currency derivatives mature in less than one year. Due to restructuring proceeding, at the moment the company cannot obtain the credit facilities it would need for signing hedging derivatives.

The currency with the most significant currency risk exposure is the Swedish crown.

The table below shows the sensitivity for price changes of the Group's open currency exposures in the balance sheet, including the currency derivatives used for hedging in both transaction and translation position. Impact of change in currency rate + / - shows in the first case the effect on the income statement or the shareholder's equity as currency depreciates 10% against euro and in the second case as currency appreciates 10% against euro.

Interest rate risk

The interest rate risk to which the cash flow is exposed arises mainly from the Group's loan portfolio and finance leases. The interest rate risk arises as changes in market interest rates and in interest rate margins affect financial expenses and income. The interest rate risk is managed by spreading the loan portfolio between fixed and floating interest rate loans and investments. In addition, interest rate derivatives can be used.

The forecast change in financial expenses shows the change in interest expenses if interest rates actually follow the yield curve as priced by the market at the point of reference. The sensitivity analysis estimates the parallel rise in the interest rate curve at 1.0 percentage points. A positive change indicates a decrease and a negative change an increase in interest expenses.

Korolliset velat 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0

The assumption in the calculation is that loans that mature are refinanced with comparable instruments. It is also assumed that no repayments are made, thus the calculations only take into account the interest rate renewal risk regarding interest-bearing loans and their nominal interest rates. An exception are the interest rate swaps where it is not assumed that the instruments will be rolled-over with similar instruments when they mature. As the interest rate risk on the asset side of the balance sheet is not significant it has not been included to the interest rate risk sensitivity analysis.

Commodity risk

Group's commodity risk arises mainly from the price risk of the electricity and of the raw materials. From the beginning of the year 2018 a considerable share of the electricity price has been fixed for the next 12 months forward. In 2017, electricity was purchased at market price, so the changes in the market price of electricity at that time directly affected the Group's result. For the Group's business operations it is imperative that it can source certain raw materials, such as recycled steel and iron blocks at competitive prices. The cost risk associated with raw materials is primarily managed using pricing agreements, with which the prices of products are adjusted according to the prices of their raw materials. Group also has the availability risk of the raw materials as it has been in cash sale during the restructuring process as Group has lost credit insurance limits. However, in 2018, the situation has improved and competition between suppliers of major raw materials has been established, and normal payment terms achieved within the limits provided by the suppliers.

Accounting principles

The Group's financial assets are initially classified in the following categories: assets measured at amortised cost, at fair value through profit and loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income. When assessing the expected impairment for financial assets measured at amortised cost, the expected credit losses are measured and recognised based on aging classification. Financial liabilities are classified in the following categories: financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss and financial liabilities at amortised cost.

Loans are initially recognised at fair value and valued thereafter at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Substantial transaction costs are taken into account when calculating the acquisition cost.

26 Restructuring debts

The implementation of the restructuring programmes progresses as planned. The payment programme in the Group will end in 2024. Interest-bearing restructuring debts are presented in note Financial risks and instruments and they have been measured as Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost.

Accounting principles

The Group classifies its leases at the inception as finance or operating leases. Leases for fixed assets that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the Group are classified as finance leases. They are recognised on the balance sheet under fixed assets at the commencement of the lease at an amount equal to the lower of the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Any substantial incremental costs that are directly attributable to negotiating and arranging the lease are added to the amount recognised as an asset. Depreciation is made on the fixed asset over its estimated useful economic life according to the Group's depreciation policy, or if there is reasonable certainty that the ownership of the asset will not be obtained at the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful economic life.

The lower of the fair value of the asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments is recognised as a finance lease liability. Lease payments are divided into financing charges and reduction of the outstanding liability, using the effective interest rate method so that the liability is repaid over the lease term as an annuity. The financing charge calculated with the effective interest rate is recognised as a financial expense. The difference between the floating interest rate agreements and the effective interest rate is recorded as a rental expense.

Some of the production and office space that is currently not needed by the Group is leased to external parties. The rental agreements are from one to three years in length and normally contain an option to extend the lease period after the lease expires. Some of the properties are classified, in accordance with IAS 40 Investment property.

Accounting principles

The Group classifies its leases at the inception as finance or operating leases. Leases for fixed assets that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the Group are classified as finance leases. They are recognised on the balance sheet under fixed assets at the commencement of the lease at an amount equal to the lower of the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Any substantial incremental costs that are directly attributable to negotiating and arranging the lease are added to the amount recognised as an asset. Depreciation is made on the fixed asset over its estimated useful economic life according to the Group's depreciation policy, or if there is reasonable certainty that the ownership of the

asset will not be obtained at the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful economic life.

A lease is classified as an operating lease if the lessor retains the risks and rewards incidental to ownership and if it is a question of an insignificant finance lease. Lease payments under operating lease agreements are recognised as expenses in the income statement on an accrual basis throughout the lease term.

33 Events after end of period

On 14 March 2019, Componenta announced that Componenta Corporation's company in Sweden that provides machining and painting services, Componenta Främmestad AB, will decrease its business operations and has commenced measures to reduce its personnel. A workforce reduction announcement was submitted to the labour authorities of Sweden on 28 February 2019 in preparation for the redundancy of more than a hundred persons. The number of employees made redundant cannot yet be confirmed at this stage. Componenta Främmestad AB employs approximately 200 persons plus approximately 35 agency contract workers. The profitability of Componenta Främmestad AB's business operations has been chronically poor, and the company has been unable to materially improve it. Losing the foundry in Turkey to outside the Group materially reduced the strategic importance of the Swedish business operations for Componenta Group. Componenta Främmestad AB primarily supplies, machines and paints the products of the Turkish foundry company that used to belong to Componenta Group and was sold in 2017. Part of the foundering will be sent to Främmestad from the Pori foundry in Finland. These deliveries represent approximately 40% of the volumes of the unit in Pori. As a result of this, adjustment measures are also planned at the Pori foundry. The Pori foundry employs approximately 205 persons. Componenta has tried to improve the profitability of its business operations in Sweden by renewing customer contracts. However, the negotiations have not led to the desired result, and because of this, Componenta has been forced to terminate some important customerships of Componenta Främmestad AB as unprofitable. The effects of events after end of period have been recorded according to IAS 10 Events after the reporting period.

Accounting principles for the financial statements

The financial statements for Componenta Corporation have been prepared in accordance with the laws and regulations governing the preparation of the financial statements in Finland. The Financial statements have been prepared for the period between January 1 and December 31, 2018.

Corporate restructuring proceedings and ability to continue as a going concern

During 2016 the company implemented financial solutions described in the financial statements for 2016 and the Group also sold non-core business operations during 2016. Despite these measures the company's liquidity remained tight, and as a result of this weak liquidity the company was no longer able to meet all its financial obligations as they fell due. In consequence of this, on 1 September 2016 the company filed an application to begin corporate restructuring proceedings. In Finland the District Court of Helsinki issued its decision regarding the commencement of the restructuring proceedings in respect of Componenta Corporation on 30

September 2016. The District Court of Helsinki confirmed the restructuring programme on 23 August 2017.

At the end of the reporting period Componenta Corporation's restructuring debts were EUR 8.2 million, which are at the same time unsecured debts. EUR 0.4 million of these debts are to group companies and EUR 7.8 million are to third parties. The unsecured debts of Componenta Corporation were cut by 94% and the debts with lowest priority were cut in their entirety in the restructuring programmes. The payment programme for unsecured debts will commence in May 2019 and end in November 2023.

The financial statements for the financial year 2018 have been prepared on the going concern basis and it is assumed that Componenta Corporation can, during the foreseeable future, realize its assets and pay back its liabilities as part of normal operations within the framework of the restructuring programmes. When assessing the ability to continue as a going concern, Componenta Corporation's management has considered the uncertainties and risks related to the confirmed restructuring programmes, available funding sources and the cash flow estimates for the next 12 months of the companies under restructuring proceedings. The company's' liquidity and financial performance as well as the success of the restructuring programme and financing transactions are affected by the material uncertainty, which the management has considered when assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern. It is important that the subsidiaries' restructuring programmes are successful, because the main sources of income for Componenta Corporation consist of Trade mark license fee and management fee charges from its subsidiaries. It is possible that the restructuring programmes are unsuccessful, and the Company will have to file for bankruptcy.

The content and implementation of restructuring programme is presented in more detail in the consolidated financial statement.

OTHER INFORMATION

Foreign currency transactions

Business transactions in foreign currencies are recognized at the exchange rate on the date of the transaction. Receivables and liabilities in foreign currency are translated into euros at the European Central Bank's average exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from translation are recognized in profit or loss under adjustments to sales or purchases or under financial items, depending on their nature.

Derivatives

The fair value of forward rate agreements is the profit or loss calculated at market prices on the closing date that would result from terminating the agreements. The fair value of interest rate options is estimated using commonly used option pricing models. The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated by estimating and discounting future cash flows at market interest rates on the closing date. Forward foreign exchange contracts and foreign exchange swaps are valued at quoted forward exchange rates on the closing date and are divided into the fair value of the exchange rate difference and the fair value of the interest rate difference.

Positive and negative fair values for exchange rate differences for foreign exchange derivatives are recognized on the closing date in the income

statement. The fair values of foreign exchange derivatives presented in the notes also include the fair values of interest rate differences. Due to the missing limits the company had no open derivative contracts at the end of the reporting period.

Revenue recognition

The main sources of income for Componenta Corporations are Trade Mark License Fee- and Service Fee- charges from its subsidiaries. Sales of services are recognized as sales when the services have been rendered or when the work is being carried out.

Pensions

Statutory pension contributions for personnel are handled by external pension insurance companies and there are no uncovered pension liabilities. Pension insurance payments are allocated so that they correspond to the performance-based pay stated in the financial statements.

Leases

Leasing payments are treated as rental expenses. Liabilities falling due for payment in the future are presented under contingent liabilities in the notes to the balance sheet.

Income taxes

Taxes include taxes for the fiscal year calculated on the actual figures as well as taxes due for payment or refund from previous fiscal years that differ from the calculated taxes. Deferred tax assets have not been recorded for losses.

Non-current assets and depreciation

Intangible and tangible assets are recorded in the balance sheet at their historical cost less planned depreciation. Planned depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis on the historical cost based on the probable useful life.

Intangible rights 3 - 10 years
Other long-term expenditure 3 - 10 years
IT equipment 3 - 10 years
Other machinery and equipment 0 - 25 years
Other tangible assets 5 - 10 years

Capital expenditure on non-current assets are measured at cost, or fair value in case the fair value is less than cost. Capital expenditure on non-current assets include shares in subsidiaries and other shares and investments.

Valuation principles for investments in subsidiaries and receivables from subsidiaries

The Finnish subsidiary Componenta Finland Ltd and its wholly-owned Swedish subsidiaries, Componenta Främmestad AB, Componenta Wirsbo AB and Componenta Arvika AB filed for corporate restructuring in accordance with local restructuring proceedings in 2016. Componenta Wirsbo AB and Componenta Arvika AB filed for bankruptcy at the local district courts in July, 2017. The companies failed to obtain financing for the payment of their restructuring debts. Significant uncertainty relates to the cash generating ability of the subsidiaries of Componenta Corporation and to their ability to pay their debts and, in accordance with the prudence concept, a reduction in value as prescribed in article 13 of chapter 5 of the Finnish Accounting Act has been applied to investments in these companies and to receivables from them.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in-hand and bank account balances.

Share-based payments

Componenta has two share-based incentive plans for the Corporate Executive Team and the company key employees, a Stock Option Plan and a Restricted Share Plan. Pursuant to the share ownership plans, the reward to the management will be settled as a combination of shares and cash when the criteria set in the terms and conditions for the plan are met. The key employee's valid employment or service and the continuation of work during the vesting period are key conditions.

The reward from the Restricted Share Plan will be based on the key employee's valid employment or service and the continuation of work during the vesting period. The rewards to be paid based on the incentive plan correspond to the value of shares including also the proportion to be paid in cash. At each statement of financial position date, the company revises its estimates of the number of shares, of the share-based incentive plan, that are expected to be distributed. The expense will be recognized over the vesting period. This estimate will be revised at each consolidated statement of financial position date and the impact of the revision of original estimates will be recognized in the statement of income.

Auditor's Report (Translation of the Finnish Original)

To the Annual General Meeting of Componenta Oyj

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements

Opinion

In our opinion

  • the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the group's financial position and financial performance and cash flows in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU
  • the financial statements give a true and fair view of the parent company's financial performance and financial position in accordance with the laws and regulations governing the preparation of the financial statements in Finland and comply with statutory requirements.

Our opinion is consistent with the additional report to the Board of Directors.

What we have audited

We have audited the financial statements of Componenta Oyj (business identity code 1635451-6) for the year ended 31 December 2018. The financial statements comprise:

  • the consolidated statement of financial position, income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in shareholders' equity, cash flow statement and notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies
  • the parent company's balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement and notes.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with good auditing practice in Finland. Our responsibilities under good auditing practice are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report.

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

Independence

We are independent of the parent company and of the group companies in accordance with the ethical requirements that are applicable in Finland and are relevant to our audit, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

To the best of our knowledge and belief, the non-audit services that we have provided to the parent company and to the group companies are in accordance with the applicable law and regulations in Finland and we have not provided non-audit services that are prohibited under Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014. The non-audit services that we have provided are disclosed in note 6 to the Financial Statements.

OTHER INFORMATION

Material uncertainties related to going concern

We draw attention to the accounting principles of the consolidated financial statements and of the financial statements of the parent company, which describe the status and progress of the corporate restructuring proceedings of the group companies and their ability to continue as a going concern.

The Board of Directors and Management of Componenta Group have assessed the company's ability to continue as going concern taking into consideration the company's liquidity situation and the impact of the restructuring proceedings to the financial position and cash flows of the group and group companies. The Board of Directors and Management assessed that the liquidity situation, the financial performance of the group companies as well as the success of the restructuring programmes and the financing transactions are affected by significant uncertainty factors. The Board of Directors and Management conclude that the cash flow forecasts and financing of group companies under restructuring programmes include significant estimates and assumptions as well as uncertainties. Significant estimates and assumptions and uncertainties related to the ability to continue as a going concern are described in the accounting principles of the consolidated financial statements.

The Board of Directors and Management consider that the company can, within the foreseeable future, realize its assets and pay back its liabilities as part of normal business operations within the framework of the restructuring programmes. As such, the Board of Directors and Management believe that going concern basis of presentation in the consolidated and parent company financial statements is appropriate. In our opinion, the success of the restructuring programmes as well as the outcome of the cash flow forecasts are such uncertainties that may cast significant doubt on the Componenta Group's and its subsidiaries' ability to continue as a going concern.

Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

Our Audit Approach

Overview

• Overall group materiality: € 1 200 000 euros
Audit scope: The group audit scope has included the parent company and

its subsidiaries in Finland and Sweden.
Key Audit Matters in the audit of the financial statements in the current
period
• Timing of revenue recognition

Valuation of assets taking into consideration the corporate restructuring
proceedings and reorganisation of the business operations

The effect of the corporate restructuring proceedings and reorganising of
the business operations to the parent company's financial statements

As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements. In particular, we considered where management made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain.

Materiality

The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. An audit is designed to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.

Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality, including the overall group materiality for the consolidated financial statements as set out in the table below. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements on the financial statements as a whole.

OTHER INFORMATION

Overall group materiality 1 200 000 euros (previous year 1 200 000 euros)
How we determined it Overall group materiality is determined as a percentage of the
group's FY2018 net sales.
Rationale for the materiality
benchmark applied
We chose net sales as the benchmark because, in our view, it
is the appropriate benchmark, which the users of the financial
statements regularly use to evaluate the performance of the
group.

How we tailored our group audit scope

We tailored the scope of our audit, taking into account the structure of the group, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the group operates. The scope included the parent company and its subsidiaries in Finland and Sweden.

We have predefined the audit focus areas of financial information to each group component. When a task was to be performed by a component auditor we have guided the component auditor with audit instructions that have included among other things our risk assessment, materiality, audit approach and centralized audit procedures.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including among other matters consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

In addition to matter described in paragraph above "Material uncertainties related to going concern" we have concluded that the matters listed below are key audit matters.

Timing of revenue recognition
Refer to Note 1 of the consolidated financial
statements
Componenta's revenue consist of sale of
goods and services. The main sales products
are non-machined, machined and painted iron
cast components. Products sold to custom
ers are recognized when disposed, that is the
moment when the customer assumes control
of the goods.
The timing of revenue recognition has been
considered a key audit matter in the auditing
of the consolidated financial statements due
to the significance of revenue to the financial
statements.
Our audit procedures included for example the
following procedures:

Evaluation of internal control activities over
revenue recognition and testing of key
controls.

Analysis of significant sales contracts to test
correct accounting treatment.

Testing timeliness of revenue recognition by
comparing individual sales transactions to
delivery documents and by checking signifi
cant credit notes issued after year-end.

Analysis of revenue transactions using data
analysis techniques.

Testing of accounts receivables by request
ing confirmations from the company's
customers and by reconciling cash payments
received after the year end against the ac
counts receivable balances at the year end.

Responsibilities of the Board of Directors and the Managing Director for the Financial Statements

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, and of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the laws and regulations governing the preparation of financial statements in Finland and comply with statutory requirements. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are also responsible for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for assessing the parent company's and the group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting. The financial statements are prepared using the going concern basis of accounting unless there is an intention to liquidate the parent company or the group or to cease operations, or there is no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with good auditing practice will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with good auditing practice, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the parent company's or the group's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors' and the Managing Director's use of the going concern basis of accounting and based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the parent company's or the group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclo-

sures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the parent company or the group to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events so that the financial statements give a true and fair view.
  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
