Hedging policy
CASHFLOW AND P/L
• TOMRA can hedge up to one year of future predicted cash flows. Gains and losses on these hedges are recorded at the finance line, not influencing EBITA
B/S
• TOMRA only hedges B/S items where exchange rate fluctuations could have P/L impact. Gains and losses on B/S hedging are recorded in accordance with IAS 21 and will normally not have P/L impact
Outlook
| Collection | • High activity related to preparation for new markets • Quarterly performance will be dependent upon timing of new initiatives |
|---|---|
| Recycling | • Positive momentum assumed to continue but normalize from high 2022-2023 levels • Demand for recycled materials is expected to create opportunities |
| Food | • Challenging macroeconomic environment is delaying customer investments • Need for automation and increased quality and safety requirements create opportunities mid and long term |
| Other | • Pricing actions and cost measures are expected to mitigate continued inflation • Lower risk of sourcing shortages and logistical bottlenecks |
| Currency | • Reporting in NOK and with some NOK cost base, TOMRA will in general benefit from a weak NOK, particularly against EUR and USD |
