Key audit matters

Areas reported to the Audit Committee

Audit focus areas

Key audit matters

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when control of the good or service is transferred to the customer, typically at the point of time when the goods have been delivered to the customer.

Revenue is used as a key performance indicator in the Group.

Revenue recognition was a key audit matter due to the risk related to the timing (cut-off) related risk.

Valuation of Goodwill

The value of goodwill at the date of the financial statements amounted to 5,5 M€ (11% of total assets).

Valuation of goodwill was a key audit matter because:

  • the impairment testing is complex and based on numerous judgmental estimates, and
  • the amount of goodwill is significant to the financial statements.

Valuation of Trade Receivables

At the balance sheet date, the total value of trade receivables was 21,2 M€, (18% of total assets).

Valuation of trade receivables was a key audit matter because:

  • Valuation of trade receivables require management judgement, and
  • the value of trade receivables incl. overdue receivables is material to the financial statements.

AGENDA

16. AUTHORISING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO DECIDE ON THE ACQUISITION OF THE COMPANY'S OWN SHARES AND/OR ACCEPTING THEM AS A PLEDGE

The Board of Directors proposes that the General Meeting authorises the Board of Directors to decide upon the acquisition of a maximum of 2 117 990 of the company's own shares and/or accepting the same number of the company's own shares as a pledge, in one or several tranches, by using the company's unrestricted shareholders' equity. The maximum total of shares that will be acquired and/or accepted as a pledge corresponds to 10% of all shares in the company as of the date of this summons. However, the company cannot, together with its subsidiary companies, own or accept as a pledge altogether more than 10% of its own shares at any point in time. The company's shares may be purchased under this authorisation solely by using unrestricted shareholders' equity.

The shares will be acquired otherwise than in proportion to the share ownership of the shareholders via public trading arranged by Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd at the market price on the date on which the acquisition is made or otherwise at a price formed on the market. The Board of Directors proposes that this authorisation be used e.g. for the purposes of implementing the company's share-based incentive systems or for other purposes as decided by the Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors proposes that this authorisation be considered to cancel the authorisation granted by the General Meeting on 25 March 2021 to decide on the acquisition of the company's own shares.

The Board of Directors proposes that the authorisation remain in force until the end of the following Annual General Meeting, however, no longer than 30 June 2023.

AGENDA

17. AUTHORISING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO DECIDE ON A SHARE ISSUE AND THE ISSUANCE OF SPECIAL RIGHTS ENTITLING TO SHARES

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorises the Board of Directors to decide on a share issue and on the issuance of special rights entitling to shares as referred to in Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act, in one or more tranches, either against or without consideration.

The number of shares to be issued, including shares to be issued on the basis of special rights, may not exceed 2 117 990, which amounts to 10% of all shares in the company as of the date of this summons. The Board of Directors may decide to either issue new shares or to transfer any treasury shares held by the company.

The authorisation entitles the Board of Directors to decide on all terms that apply to the share issue and to the issuance of special rights entitling to shares, including the right to derogate from the shareholders' pre-emptive right. The Board of Directors proposes that this authorisation be used e.g. for the purposes of strengthening the company's balance sheet and improving its financial status or for other purposes as decided by the Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors proposes that the authorisation remain in force until the end of the following Annual General Meeting, however, no longer than 30 June 2023. This authorisation cancels any previously granted, unused authorisations to decide on a share issue and the issuance of options or other special rights entitling to shares.
