President and CEO Marko Penttinen comments on the review period
"Uncertainty in the markets increased particularly during the last quarter of 2019, which was evidenced by a decrease in sales volumes. However, Componenta's net sales increased due to the consolidation of Komas Oy (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy) into Componenta Group as of 1 September 2019. In addition to decreasing volumes, the profitability was burdened by the advisory fees of EUR 0.4 million related to the acquisition of Komas Oy (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy), recorded in profit and loss account. The Group's administrative costs have increased in proportion to its continued operations' net sales and operating result because of Componenta Främmestad AB's bankruptcy. The administrative costs of Componenta Corporation, the parent company, have not changed due to Componenta Främmestad AB's bankruptcy, but they continue to burden the result of continued operations, while Componenta Främmestad AB's net sales and direct costs are no longer part of the continued operations' result.
The measures for adjusting the expenses have started, and we will continue to systematically improve Componenta Group's cost-efficiency and productivity and to increase the sales. To achieve synergy benefits and strengthen the Componenta brand, the name of Componenta Finland Oy was changed to Componenta Castings Oy and the name of Komas Oy to Componenta Manufacturing Oy as of 1 January 2020.
We worked for years to improve the profitability of the Swedish machine shop Componenta Främmestad AB. The profitability of its customer relationships was weak, and we could not significantly improve profitability
through negotiations on renewing customer agreements. In addition, the products were low in added value, and most of the business consisted of refining and supplying of castings from outside the Group. Because we did not manage to make the operations permanently profitable, there was no point to continue them, and Componenta Främmestad AB filed for bankruptcy on 25 September 2019. Giving up the unprofitable customer accounts of the Swedish machine shop business released capital and allowed us to focus on the component and series sizes aligned with our core business and to diversify the range of services in Finland.
For a long time, our customers have expressed their wish that Componenta would be able to offer assembly-ready components. That is why we acquired Komas Oy (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy), a machining company, in August 2019. The acquisition made Componenta the leading manufacturer of metal components in Finland and expanded our range of products and services. We are now capable of providing industries purchasing cast and machined components with a one-stop service, which has been received well among customers. We have already closed the first new deals on finished components.
The implementation of restructuring programmes progressed as planned in 2019, and the Group's liquidity remained good."
Dividend proposal
On 31 December 2019, the parent company's distributable assets amounted to EUR 22.6 million (15.2 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, because the company has reduced its share capital for loss coverage on 11 May 2017.
Componenta's guidance for 2020
Componenta expects the net sales of continued operations to be EUR 65 - 80 million in 2020. EBITDA is expected to remain positive. Net sales of continued operations in 2019 was EUR 50.7 million and EBITDA was EUR 1.6 million.
Possible increase in raw material prices and the general competitive climate as well as the development of customers' sales volumes may affect the business outlook.

Componenta Främmestad AB was classified as a discontinued operation in accordance with IFRS 5 on 25 September 2019 and will be presented under discontinued operation in the 2019 consolidated financial statements.

The purchase price of the acquisition was paid by issuing shares in the company to the sellers in accordance with the authorisation granted by Componenta's Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders on 1 July 2019. The purchase price consisted of 60 million new shares issued by Componenta. After the new share issue, these shares represent approximately 25.3% of the outstanding shares in the company.

Acquisition of Komas Oy (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy)
On 16 May 2019, Componenta announced that it had signed an agreement on purchasing the shares and capital loans of Komas Oy (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy), a machining operation company, from funds managed by CapMan, Fortaco Oy and certain private individuals. Komas (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy) is a manufacturer of machined components, forged blanks, hydraulic pipes and plate cuttings. In 2018, Komas (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy) had net sales of EUR 44.9 million in accordance with the Finnish Accounting Standards (FAS), and its EBITDA was EUR 2.0 million (FAS). At the end of 2018, the company employed 313 people in Jyväskylä, Härmä, Kurikka, Leppävesi and Sastamala in Finland. The key customers of Komas (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy) include major international OEMs of machinery and equipment.
The transaction was completed on 30 August 2019. Componenta conducted a directed share issue for the sellers of Komas (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy) as a form of paying the purchase price. The purchase price of the acquisition was paid by issuing shares in the company to the sellers in accordance with the authorisation granted by Componenta's Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders on 1 July 2019. The purchase price consisted of 60 million new shares issued by Componenta. After the new share issue, these shares represent approximately 25.3% of the outstanding shares in the company. The purchase price, EUR 7.8 million, was based on the share price at the time of the transaction.
A prospectus including pro forma information about the impacts of the transaction was prepared for the listing of new shares. The key pro forma key figures were published separately on 7 November 2019. The pro forma net sales
of Componenta in 2018, including the impact of the acquisition of Komas (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy), was EUR 81.7 million, and in the six-month period ending on 30 June 2019 it was EUR 44.5 million. The Financial Supervision Authority approved the Finnish-language listing prospectus on 7 November 2019. The majority owners of Komas (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy), i.e. the funds managed by CapMan and CapMan's portfolio company Fortaco Oy ("Majority Owners"), have in the share purchase agreement undertaken not to exercise the voting rights attached to their prospective shares until the shareholding of the Majority Owners in Componenta has decreased below 10%. In accordance with the restriction, the Majority Owners will abstain from exercising the voting rights at the general meetings of Componenta to the extent that the voting rights represent 50% or more of the votes represented in the general meeting concerned.
Componenta Främmestad AB filed for bankruptcy
The Sweden-based company Componenta Främmestad AB filed for bankruptcy on 25 September 2019. Componenta sought to improve the profitability of its Swedish operations and reduce the amount of capital tied to business operations. The products were low in added value, and most of the business consisted of refining and supplying of castings from outside the Group. As part of its profitability improvement measures, the company engaged in negotiations to renew its significant customer agreements. These negotiations were not successful in terms of ensuring future profitability, which is why Componenta Främmestad AB decided to file for bankruptcy.
At the time of bankruptcy, Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy had around EUR 2.0 million of intra-Group receivables from Componenta Främmestad AB. As collateral for these receivables, Componenta Främmestad AB pledged its best-priority business mortgages. The nominal value of these mortgages is SEK 51.9 million. Componenta Främmestad AB's receivables from Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy totalled EUR 0.4 million at the time of its bankruptcy.
Componenta has recognized a full provision of write-off for the aforementioned receivable of EUR 2.0 million from Componenta Främmestad in its consolidated financial statements after Componenta Främmestad's bankruptcy. Componenta's intra-Group restructuring debt of EUR 0.4 million to Componenta Främmestad will increase Componenta's external debt in the future. Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy have not provided guarantees or other collateral for Componenta Främmestad AB's liabilities, apart from liabilities of around EUR 0.2 million concerning repurchase commitments related to lease agreements. The capital loan of EUR 27 million presented under "Other reserves" on Componenta Främmestad AB's balance sheet was removed from Componenta Group's balance sheet due to the bankruptcy. In addition, Componenta Främmestad AB's bankruptcy reduced the Group's restructuring debt by EUR 2.5 million.
Componenta recorded to its result of discontinued operations the positive effect on profit and loss of EUR 16.6 million caused by the loss of control after the bankruptcy of Componenta Främmestad AB. This profit and loss effect consists of the difference between the assets and liabilities of Componenta Främmestad AB, including the impact of translation differences accrued on equity, of the writedown of Componenta Group's receivables from Componenta Främmestad AB, as well as of the EUR 27.0 million capital loan of Componenta Främmestad AB to a third party which the Group had classified as equity and which, due to loss of control, was recognized through profit and loss account in the result of discontinued operations.
Componenta Främmestad AB's bankruptcy did not jeopardise the equity of Componenta Corporation, Componenta Castings Oy or the Group. Componenta Främmestad was classified as a discontinued operation in accordance with IFRS 5 on 25 September 2019, and will be presented as a discontinued operation in the 2019 consolidated financial statements.
Order book
At the end of 2019, Componenta's order book of continued operations stood at EUR 9.0 million (EUR 5.8 million). The order book contains the orders confirmed to customers for the next two months.

Net sales
Continued operations during the financial period included foundries in Pori and Karkkila, Finland, and metal product plants in Jyväskylä, Härmä, Kurikka, Leppävesi and Sastamala, Finland. Additionally, the Group has real estate business operations in Finland that are of limited importance.
Net sales of continued operations increased by 29.0% from the previous year to EUR 50.7 million (EUR 39.3 million). Componenta's net sales increased due to the consolidation of Komas Oy (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy) into Componenta Group as of 1 September 2019.
By customer segment, Componenta's net sales in the financial period were as follows: Machine building 39%, agricultural machinery 25%, forestry machines 10%, energy industry 12%, defence industry 3% and other industries in all 11%.
Result
EBITDA of the Group's continued operations weakened from the previous year to EUR 1.6 million (EUR 3.2 million). The impact of exchange rate differences on EBITDA was EUR 0.0 million (EUR 0.0 million). The operating result of the Group's continued operations weakened from the previous year to
EUR -1.7 million (EUR 1.0 million). Besides the decrease in sales volumes during the last quarter, Componenta's profitability was burdened by slightly increased quality costs and EUR 0.4 million in advisory fees related to the acquisition of Komas (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy), recognized in profit and loss. The advisory fees entered in equity were EUR 0.3 million. In addition, the Group's administrative costs have increased in proportion to its continued operations' net sales and operating result because of Componenta Främmestad AB's bankruptcy, since the administrative costs of Componenta Corporation, the parent company, have not changed due to Componenta Främmestad AB's bankruptcy, but continue to burden the continued operations' result while Componenta Främmestad AB's net sales and direct costs are no longer part of the continued operations' result.
The net financing items of the Group's continued operations, including the items affecting comparability, were EUR -0.4 million (EUR 0.0 million). The change was due to increased expenses of interest-bearing debt related to the acquisition of Komas Oy (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy). The continued operations' result after financial items was EUR -2.1 million (EUR 0.9 million). The taxes of the continued operations totalled EUR 0.0 million (EUR 0.0 million) for the financial period.

Balance sheet, financing and cash flow
At the end of the financial period, the Componenta Group's total liabilities were EUR 38.2 million (EUR 29.7 million), of which the external restructuring debts were EUR 12.3 million (EUR 16.0 million). Componenta Corporation's share of the external restructuring debts was EUR 7.5 million (EUR 7.8 million) and Componenta Castings Oy's share was EUR 4,7 million (EUR (5.7 million). The external restructuring debt includes EUR 0.7 million (EUR 0.8 million) of interest-bearing debt, of which EUR 0.1 million (EUR 0.1 million) is short-term. In addition, other long-term liabilities amounted to EUR 10.7 million (EUR 2.6 million) and shortterm accounts payable, accrued debts and other debts amounted to EUR 15.2 million (EUR 11.2 million). Other long-term and short-term debts increased mainly due to the acquisition of Komas (Componenta Manufacturing Oy).
At the end of 2019, net gearing stood at 54.9% (-17.5%). Net gearing includes only interest-bearing liabilities of the restructuring debts. At the end of 2019, the Group's equity ratio stood at 29.4% (39.3 %). The change in net gearing and equity ratio is mainly due to the acquisition of Komas Oy (Componenta Manufacturing Oy).

At the end of the financial period, the company's invested capital stood at EUR 29.1 million (EUR 21.2 million), the return on investment was 3.2% (6.0%) and the return on equity 83.0% (5.6%).

2.8 million undrawn binding loan commitments. The net cash flow of continued operations for the financial period was EUR 4.1 million (EUR 1.3 million). The improved net cash flow from continued operations is mainly due to the favourable development of working capital. At the end of the financial period, working capital of continued operations (incl. inventory and receivables deducted by accounts payable) was EUR 6.7 million (EUR 5.4 million). Less capital is employed in inventory and days payables outstanding (DPO) has prolonged. Furthermore, days sales outstanding (DSO) has shortened.
Investments
The investments of continued operations amounted to EUR 1.3 million (EUR 1.1 million). The Group's net cash flow from investments was EUR -0.7 million (EUR -0.2 million), which includes the cash flow from the Group's investments in tangible and intangible assets, and the additions due to acquisition of a subsidiary. The cash flow from investments of continued operations was EUR -0.2 million (EUR 0.6 million).
Research and development activities
During the financial period, the research and development costs of Componenta's continued operations totalled EUR 0.0 million (EUR 0.0 million). There were no research and development costs, because Componenta manufactures customer products.
Continued operations
Continued operations during the review period included foundries in Pori and Karkkila, Finland, and metal product plants in Jyväskylä, Härmä, Kurikka, Leppävesi and Sastamala, Finland. Furthermore, the continued operations include Finnish real estate companies of limited importance.
Discontinued operations
The Sweden-based company Componenta Främmestad AB filed for bankruptcy on 25 September 2019. Componenta recorded to its result of discontinued operations the positive effect on profit and loss of EUR 16.6 million caused by the loss of control after the bankruptcy of Componenta Främmestad AB. The profit and loss impact consists of the difference between the assets and liabilities of Componenta Främmestad AB, including
the impact of translation differences accrued on equity, of the write-down of Componenta Group's receivables from Componenta Främmestad AB, as well as of the EUR 27.0 million capital loan of Componenta Främmestad AB to a third party which the Group had classified as equity and which, due to loss of control, was recognized through profit and loss in the result of discontinued operations.
Risks and business-related uncertainties
The most significant risks to Componenta's business operations are risks linked to the operating environment (competitive situation, price risks, commodity risks and environmental risks), risks relating to business operations (customer, supplier, productivity, production and process risks, labour market disruptions, contractual and product liability risks, personnel and data security risks) and financing risks (risks relating to the availability of financing and liquidity; currency, interest rate and credit risks).
The availability of certain raw materials, such as recycled steel and pig iron, and energy at competitive prices is essentially important for the company's business. The cost risk associated with raw materials is mainly managed with price agreements according to which the prices of products are adjusted to correspond with the changes in commodity prices. An increase in raw material prices may tie more money than expected in working capital.
Componenta's potential risks associated with the availability of working capital and liquidity may have a negative impact on the volumes of new trade in the future and may mean that the customers place smaller orders for new products replacing discontinued ones. Possible cases of losing customers due to commercial reasons may also reduce the volumes.
When assessing the ability to continue as a going concern, the most significant estimates and assumptions as well as uncertainties by the company and its management are as follows:
● Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy will be able to make the payments in accordance with the restructuring programme. 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 payment terms and because the Group companies undergoing restructuring do not at the moment have access to external financing.
- Componenta Castings Oy will be able to partly make up for the volume that has decreased due to the bankruptcy of Componenta Främmestad AB with new orders placed by existing and new customers and succeed with the adaptation measures, particularly at the Pori foundry.
- 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.
Restructuring programmes
The implementation of restructuring programmes progressed as planned. The repayment programmes of Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy began in 2019 and will end in 2023.
In 2019, Componenta Corporation paid the following instalments compliant with the restructuring programme: EUR 0.3 million in May and EUR 0.3 million in November of external restructuring debts , and EUR 0.03 million in May and EUR 0.001 million in November of intra-Group restructuring debts. Similarly, Componenta Castings Oy paid the following instalments compliant with the restructuring programme: EUR 0.5 million in May and EUR 0.5 million in November of external restructuring debts, and EUR 0.4 million in May and EUR 0.4 million in November of intra-Group restructuring debts.
On 31 December 2019, the Group's external restructuring debt totalled EUR 12.3 million (31 December 2018: EUR 16.0 million, including EUR 2.5 million of external restructuring debts of Componenta Främmestad AB). Of the Group's external restructuring debts, short-term debts amounted to EUR 1.6 million. The external restructuring debts included EUR 0.7 million of interest-bearing debt, of which EUR 0.1 million was short-term.
According to the restructuring programmes, a supplementary payment obligation to creditors is incurred for Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy, if the company's generated operating cash flow exceeds in any calendar year (starting from 2018 and ending in 2022) the operating cash flow predicted in the programme balance sheet for 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.

| Total | 1.7 | 1.7 | 1.7 | 7.2* | 12.3 |
*) The larger final instalment in Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy's repayment programme is due to the fact that income from the sale of properties not included in core business operations has been taken into account.

The final instalment also includes an additional obligation of EUR 3.2 million arising from the expiry of a loan guarantee of EUR 80 million.

In accordance with the terms and conditions of the corporate transaction, the contract price will be paid by giving the sellers the company's shares. The General Meeting resolved to authorise the Board of Directors to decide on a new share issue so that the maximum number of shares to be issued by virtue of the authorization is 60,000,000 new shares, equivalent to approximately 33.8% of the
total number of all shares of the company on the date of notice of meeting. The shares to be issued by virtue of the authorization may be used as payment in the contemplated transaction. New shares may be issued through a directed share issue in deviating from the shareholders' pre-emptive subscription right if there is a weighty financial reason for the deviation from the company's point of view. The subscription price of the new shares can be paid as a contribution in kind. Based on the authorization, the Board of Directors is entitled to resolve on all other matters related to the share issue. The authorization is valid until 30 June 2020 at the latest.
In accordance with the provisions of the transaction, the company would take its own shares issued to the sellers as a security. The General Meeting resolved to authorize the Board of Directors to decide on taking the company's own shares up to a maximum of 12,000,000 shares as a security in one or more tranches. Based on the authorization, the Board of Directors may not make a resolution based on which the number of shares to be taken as a security, together with the shares possibly held by the company or its subsidiaries, would constitute one tenth or more of the total number of shares in the company. The Board of Directors is, based on the authorization, entitled to resolve on all other conditions for acquiring and/or taking own shares as a security. The authorization is valid until 30 June 2020 at the latest.
With respect to the possible realization of the company's own shares taken as a security based on the authorization given above, the General Meeting resolved to authorize the Board of Directors to decide on the transfer of own shares held by the company in one or several parts, either against payment or without payment. The total number of new shares to be transferred may amount to a maximum of 12,000,000 shares, equivalent to approximately 6.8% of the total number of shares of the company on the date of the notice of meeting. The authorization entitles the Board of Directors to decide on all terms and conditions related to the transfer of shares, including the right to deviate from the shareholders' pre-emptive subscription rights. The authorization is valid until 31 December 2020 at the latest.
The General Meeting resolved that the number of the members of the Board of Directors be increased from four to five. It was resolved to elect Harri Suutari as a new Board member for a term ending at the close of the next Ordinary General Meeting. President and CEO Harri Suutari had earlier stated that if he is elected Board member, he
will resign his post as President and CEO and a new President and CEO will be appointed for the company. Marko Penttinen assumed the position of Componenta's President and CEO when the acquisition of Komas Oy was implemented.
The General Meeting resolved that the annual remuneration payable to a board member in accordance with the resolution of the Ordinary General Meeting dated 16 May 2019 shall be paid to Harri Suutari pro rata temporis for the duration of his term. In other respects, the resolutions of the Ordinary General Meeting held on 16 May 2019 regarding remuneration of the Board of Directors remain in force unaltered.
Board of Directors and management
At its organisation meeting held after the Annual General Meeting on 16 May 2019, the Board of Directors elected Petteri Walldén as Chairman of the Board and Anne Leskelä as Vice Chairman of the Board. The Extraordinary General Meeting held on 1 July 2019 resolved to increase the number of Board members from four to five, and Harri Suutari was elected new member of the Board.

Share-based incentive scheme
On 12 November 2018, the Board of Directors of Componenta Corporation decided to introduce two share-based incentive schemes for the Group's key employees: an option scheme and a restricted share plan. The schemes
are used to encourage key employees to commit to longterm employment at the Company in order to increase shareholder value. The schemes are also used to make the key employees commit to the Company.
On 10 February 2020, the Board of Directors of Componenta Corporation decided to convert option rights 2018A returned to the company into option rights 2018B. After conversion of the option rights, there are a total of 2,013,750 option rights 2018A, a total of 2,861,500 option rights 2018B and a total of 2,445,250 option rights 2018C.
The subscription periods for shares to be subscribed using the option rights are as follows: 1 December 2021-30 November 2023 for option rights 2018A, 1December 2022-30 November 2024 for option rights 2018B and 1 December 2023-30 November 2025 for option rights 2018C. One option right entitles to the subscription of one share.
The share subscription price using option right 2018A is EUR 0.17 per share, i.e. the trading volume-weighted average price at Nasdaq Helsinki Oy during the period of 12 October-8 November 2018, the share subscription price using option right 2018B is EUR 0.128 per share, i.e. the trading volume-weighted average price at Nasdaq Helsinki Oy during the period of 14 October-8November 2019, and the share subscription price using option right 2018C will be the trading volume-weighted average price at Nasdaq Helsinki Oy during the period of 12October-6November 2020. The subscription price of the share decreases by the amount of dividends and distribution of assets decided before the subscription. The share subscription price is entered in the company's unrestricted equity reserve.
The reward of the restricted share unit plan for 2018 is based on the key employee's existing contract of employment or service and continuation of the employment during the commitment period. The reward will be paid partly in shares and partly in cash after the commitment period that ends in November 2021, by the end of December 2021 at the latest. The purpose of the cash portion is to cover the taxes and tax-like levies incurred by the key employee. The total remuneration payable from the plan shall not exceed the value of 1,999,500 shares of Componenta Corporation, including the portion paid in cash.

Financial statements release tables
Accounting principles
Componenta Corporations' financial statement release for 2019 has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and should be read in conjunction with Componentas' Financial Statements for 2018, published on 12 April 2019. Componenta has applied the same accounting principles in preparing this financial statement release as in the financial statements for 2018, except for the adoption of new IFRS-standards and IFRIC-interpretations effective in 2019. This financial statement release is unaudited.
New applied standards
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting principles as in 2018, except for the following new amended standard that the Group has applied as of 1 January 2019:
● IFRS 16, Leases
As of January 2019, Componenta adopted the new IFRS 16 "Leases" standard. This standard presents the definition of recognition, the measurement of lease agreements, presentation and other information given in relation to lease agreements in the consolidated financial statements. Due to applying the new standard, the lease agreements of the lessee are recognized on the balance sheet, since operating leases and finance leases are no longer separated. According to the new standard, an asset (right-of-use asset) and a financial liability regarding rental payments are recognized on the balance sheet.
On adoption of the new standard, lease liabilities were recognized in relation to leases which had previously been classified as operating leases under the principles of IAS 17 Leases. The liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted by using the lessee's incremental borrowing rent as of 1 January 2019. The weighted average of the lessee's incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on 1 January 2019 was 5.5%.
Regarding leases valid until further notice, company management has estimated the future lease period and recognized the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities based on this assumption. These estimates and assumptions are updated quarterly.
When applying the new standard, Componenta has used the modified retrospective method, and therefore the comparatives for the 2018 reporting period have not been restated. Componenta has utilized the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:
- applying a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics
- accounting for operating leases with remaining lease term of less than 12 months on 1 January 2019 as shortterm leases
- excluding initial direct costs for the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application
- not applying the standard on leases of low value assets, but instead recognizing the rents as an expense for the lease period
There was no need to make any adjustments to the accounting for assets held as lessor under operating leases as a result of the adoption of IFRS 16.
A right-of-use asset EUR 0.4 million and correspondingly a lease liability EUR 0.4 million as a non-current and current interest-bearing liability, were recognized in the opening balance. At the end of the reporting period, EUR -1.2 million was recorded as depreciations as an impact on the result, and a change of liabilities of EUR 7.9 million in the consolidated statement of financial position. EBITDA improved by EUR 1.2 million due to rental expenses that were transferred to depreciations and financial items. In the cash flow statement, payments regarding lease agreements are presented as financing activities and interest as operating activities. Previously all rental payments of operational lease agreements were presented as operating activities. At the end of the reporting period the impact on operating activities was EUR 0.8 million, on investing activities EUR 0.0 million and on financing activities -0.8 million.
Restructuring programmes
The District Court of Helsinki issued its decision regarding the commencement of the corporate restructuring proceedings in respect of Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy (previously Componenta Finland Oy) 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 Castings Oy. 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 Castings Oy have different compositions due to different creditors.
The District Court of Helsinki confirmed the corporate restructuring programmes of Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy 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 Castings Oy will be paid in their entirety, whereas unsecured debts were cut by 75%. The payment programmes for both companies commenced in May 2019 and will end in November 2023.
On 4 August 2017, Componenta Corporation signed an agreement to sell its shareholding in Componenta Dökümcülük Ticaret ve Sanayi A.Ş., 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 the company's iron, machine shop and aluminium business in Turkey. The transaction had no impact on cash flow. 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.
The Sweden-based companies Componenta Wirsbo AB and Componenta Arvika AB were declared bankrupt on 17 July 2017. According to the confirmed restructuring programmes, the companies were supposed to pay the restructuring debts, approximately EUR 4.9 million, in July 2017. The primary objective was to agree on the postponement of payment of the restructuring debts with the creditors and to arrange re-financing 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 in July 2017 due to insufficient support from the creditors.
The restructuring application of Componenta Främmestad AB was approved and the restructuring proceedings started on 1 September 2016. In March 2016, Componenta Främmestad AB paid off its restructuring debts, EUR 2.3 million of external restructuring debts and a salary guarantee of EUR 0.6 million to the Swedish government. These amounts would have matured in July 2018. In 2019, Componenta Främmestad AB tried to improve profitability and reduce the capital employed in business operations. As part of its profitability improvement measures, the company engaged in negotiations to renew its significant customer agreements. These negotiations were not successful in terms of ensuring future profitability of operations. Therefore, Componenta Främmestad AB decided to file for bankruptcy on 25 September 2019.
Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy had around EUR 2.0 million in intra-Group receivables from Componenta Främmestad AB at the time of its bankruptcy. As collateral for these receivables, Componenta Främmestad AB pledged its best-priority Sweden mortgages. The nominal value of these mortgages is SEK 51.9 million. Componenta Främmestad AB's receivables from Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy totalled EUR 0.4 million at the time of its bankruptcy.
Componenta has written down the entire aforementioned receivable of EUR 2.0 million from Componenta Främmestad AB in its consolidated financial statements after Componenta Främmestad's bankruptcy. Componenta Group's internal restructuring debt of EUR 0.4 million to Componenta Främmestad AB increased Componenta's external debt. Componenta Corporation
and Componenta Castings Oy have not provided guarantees or other collateral for Componenta Främmestad AB's liabilities, apart from liabilities of around EUR 0.2 million concerning repurchase commitments related to lease agreements. The capital loan of EUR 27.0 million presented under "Other reserves" on Componenta Främmestad AB's balance sheet was removed from Componenta Group's balance sheet due to the bankruptcy. In addition, Componenta Främmestad AB's bankruptcy reduced the Group's restructuring debt by EUR 2.5 million. Componenta Group recorded a positive result impact of EUR 16.7 million in the result of discontinued operations due to the loss of controlling interest resulting from the bankruptcy of Componenta Främmestad AB. The impact on result consists of the difference between the assets and liabilities of Componenta Främmestad AB, including the impact of translation differences accumulated in the equity, of the write-down of Componenta Group's receivables from Componenta Främmestad AB, as well as of the EUR 27.0 million capital loan of Componenta Främmestad AB to a third party which in the Componenta Group was classified as equity and which was in connection with losing the controlling interest recognised through profit and loss in the result of discontinued operations.
Componenta Främmestad AB's bankruptcy does not jeopardise the equity of Componenta Corporation, Componenta Castings Oy or the Group. The bankruptcy is also not expected to have any material impact on the management's assessment of the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. Componenta Främmestad AB was classified as a discontinued operation on 25 September 2019 and will be presented as a discontinued operation in the 2019 consolidated financial statements.
Main contents of Componenta Corporation's restructuring programme
In Finland, the District Court of Helsinki issued its decision regarding the commencement of the corporate restructuring proceedings in respect of Componenta Corporation on 30 September 2016. The District Court of Helsinki confirmed the corporate restructuring programme of Componenta Corporation on 23 August 2017. On the basis of the restructuring program, the unsecured debts of Componenta Corporation were cut by approximately 94% as the Turkish credit guarantee was eliminated, and the lowest-priority debts were cut in their entirety. The payment programme commenced in May 2019 and will end in November 2023. When the restructuring programme of Componenta Corporation was confirmed, the company's debt cuts entered into force. The debt cuts mean that the debts on the company's balance sheet decreased by approximately EUR 118 million, which strengthens the company's equity through the result.
In compliance with the restructuring programme, the company has sold off the real estate companies that are not part of its core business, and any participations in them, to parties external to the Group and dissolved its dormant subsidiaries through liquidation proceedings. The company may face an additional payment obligation due to its cash flow exceeding expectations. Only the company's non-preferential creditors will be entitled to receive the additional payment. The company may also face an additional payment obligation, if the final amount of conditional and maximal restructuring debts included in the restructuring guarantees exceeds the amount set out in the restructuring programme.
Main contents of Componenta Castings Oy's restructuring programme
In Finland, the District Court of Helsinki issued its decision regarding the commencement of the corporate restructuring proceedings in respect of Componenta Castings Oy on 30 September 2016. The District Court of Helsinki confirmed the corporate restructuring programme of Componenta Castings Oy on 23 August 2017. The secured debts of Componenta Castings Oy will be paid in their entirety, whereas unsecured debts were cut by 75%. The payment programme commenced in May 2019 and will end in November 2023. When the restructuring programme of Componenta Castings Oy was confirmed, the company's debt cuts entered into force. The debt cuts mean that the debts on the company's balance sheet decreased by approximately EUR 28 million, which strengthens the company's equity through the result. After the debt cuts, the total external restructuring debts on the balance sheet of Componenta Castings Oy will amount to approximately EUR 5.8 million when the payments allocated for the debts considered as a conditional and maximum amount have been taken into account.
In compliance with the restructuring programme, the company has sold off almost all real estate companies that are not part of its core business, and any participations in them, to parties external to the Group and dissolved
its dormant subsidiaries through liquidation proceedings. The restructuring programme also obligates the company to sell off any fixed assets that are not associated with its core business. Most of these assets have been sold by the balance sheet date. The company may face an additional payment obligation due to its cash flow exceeding expectations. Only the company's non-preferential creditors will be entitled to receive the additional payment.
Basis for consolidation
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 a report on the implementation of the restructuring programme annually, 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 to lapse. Despite the limitations related to control under IFRS 10, the company believes that the inclusion of Componenta Castings Oy and Componenta Främmestad 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.
Still in the management's opinion, the preparation of a consolidated financial statement 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 is given as a consolidated financial statement, which covers the company and its subsidiaries under corporate restructuring as well as other companies under the parent company's control.
Assumption of ability to continue as a going concern
The financial statements for the financial year 2019 were prepared on the going concern basis. It is assumed that Componenta 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 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 of the companies for the next 12 months. 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 subsidiaries' ability to distribute funds in the form of dividends, Group contributions or intra-Group loans) and the nature of new financing that 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 uncertainties 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 will be 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 significant estimates and assumptions as well as uncertainties by the company and its management are as follows:
● Componenta Corporation and Componenta Castings Oy will be able to make the payments in accordance with the restructuring programme. 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 undergoing restructuring do not at the moment have access to external financing.
- Componenta Castings Oy will be able to partly make up for the volume that has decreased due to the bankruptcy of Componenta Främmestad AB with new orders placed by existing and new customers and succeed with the adaptation measures, particularly at the Pori foundry.
- 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.
These estimates are subject to material 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.
Acquired operations
In 2019, Componenta acquired the entire capital stock and capital loans of Komas Oy (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy) from funds managed by CapMan, Fortaco Oy and certain private individuals. The company manufactures machined components, forged blanks, hydraulic pipes and metal sheet cuttings. The transaction was completed on 30 August 2019. Komas Oy (currently Componenta Manufacturing Oy) will be consolidated on the transaction date.
Discontinued operations
in 2019, Componenta Främmestad AB was classified as a discontinued operation when the Group lost control when the company filed for bankruptcy on 25 September 2019. The result of discontinued operations is shown as a separate item in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. The cash flows of discontinued operations are shown as separate items in the condensed consolidated cash flow statement. The income statement an cash flow statement of the comparison period were adjusted accordingly. Componenta did not discontinue any operations in 2018.
Segment information
Componenta offers its customers services throughout the whole supply chain including planning, casting, machining, painting and logistical services, thus creating total solutions bringing added value to customers. The main products sold by Componenta are non-machined, machined and painted iron cast components. In addition, the company sells machining services for the customer's own materials. Componenta serves selected industries that have synergies with each other and have customers with which Componenta has strong and long-term relationships. Geographically Componenta operates in Europe, but collaborations exist with companies that operate globally. Sales revenue that is insignificant from the Group's perspective is received from the leasing of office space and industrial premises.
The highest operative decision-maker at Componenta is its President and CEO. The Corporate Executive Team of the Group assists and supports the President and CEO in his duties.
Due to the business and organisation model of Componenta and the nature of operations, Componenta's business operations are reported as one entity.
Accounting principles requiring judgement by the management
When preparing these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, the management needs to make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The estimates and assumptions that involve a significant risk of material changes in the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities during the next financial period are presented below.
When preparing Componenta's financial statements, the management has used significant judgements when making assumptions about the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Uncertainties related to the ability to continue as a going concern are presented in more detail above in the chapter Assumption of the ability to
continue as a going concern. The management has made significant estimates and assumptions in determining the valuation of assets such as investment properties, tangible and intangible assets, inventories, the realizability of deferred tax receivables and the contingent liabilities.
Alternative performance measures used for financial reporting
Componenta no longer reports adjusted net sales, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating result as alternative performance measures. Componenta will continue to publish certain publicly available performance measures that can be derived from the IFRS financial statements.
Foreign currency -denominated items
The result and financial position of the Group's units are measured in currencies that are the main currencies of their respective operating environments. The consolidated financial statements are presented in euro, which is the operating and reporting currency of Componenta Corporation.
Foreign currency -denominated transactions are recorded in the operating currency using the exchange rate of the transaction date. Receivables and liabilities were converted into euros at the exchange rate of the balance sheet date.
The translation differences created by business-related receivables and debts and their associated hedging items are included in the operating result. The translation differences of financial assets and liabilities and the result of their associated hedging instruments are presented under financial items in the income statement.

Calculation of key financial figures
| Return on equity, % (ROE) |
= Profit (Group) after financial items – income taxes x 100 Shareholders' equity without preferred capital notes + non-controlling interest |
|---|---|
| (average of the figures for the accounting period) | |
| Return on investment, % (ROI) |
= Profit (Group) after financial items + interest and other financial expenses x 100 Shareholders' equity + interest bearing liabilities (average of the figures for the accounting period) |
| Adjusted return on equity and adjusted return on investment are computed similarly as above mentioned, except that the income statement items included in the numerator are excluding items affecting comparability. |
|
| Equity ratio, % | = Shareholders' equity, preferred capital notes excluded + non-controlling interest x 100 Balance sheet total - advances received |
| Earnings per share, EUR (EPS) |
= Profit after financial items – income taxes +/- non-controlling interest - deferred and paid interest on hybrid loan Average number of shares during the financial period |
| Earnings per share with dilution, EUR |
= As above, the number of shares has been increased with the possible warrants outstanding. When calculating the dilution effect of warrants, the number of shares has been adjusted with the number of own shares which the company could have acquired, if it would have used the funds generated from the warrants to buy back of own shares at market price (= average trading price). After tax interest expense of the possible convertible loan has been added to the profit of the period. Number of shares that can be subscribed by the loan has been added to the number of total shares. |
| Cash flow per share, EUR (CEPS) |
= Net cash flow from operating activities Average number of shares during the financial period |
| Equity per share, EUR | = Shareholders' equity, preferred capital notes excluded Number of shares at period end |
| Net interest bearing debt, MEUR |
= Interest bearing liabilities + preferred capital notes - cash and bank accounts |
| Net gearing, % | = Net interest bearing liabilities x 100 Shareholders' equity, preferred capital notes excluded + non-controlling interest |
| EBITDA, EUR | = Operating profit + Depreciation, amortization and write-downs +/- Share of the associated companies' result |
