Tulikivi in brief

• Tulikivi is the world leader in the heat-retaining fireplace market. Tulikivi's net sales were approximately EUR 45 million in 2023.

Tulikivi was created through combining Finnish knowledge of the Arctic conditions, expertise in heating with wood and unique soapstone reserves.
Our mission is to create genuine experiences and reliable heat with natural materials.
Our vision is to stand out from the rest on the fireplace, sauna heater and natural stone market, and offer design and technological expertise that are highly valued in Europe.
We aim to grow our market share in the Central European fireplace market and increase our net sales in domestic and export sales of sauna products.

Product groups Tulikivi has three product groups: Fireplaces, Sauna and Interior.

Fireplaces

We estimate that around 1.5 million fireplaces were sold in 2022 in Europe, Tulikivi's main market. Of these, 40–50 per cent, or around 600,000–750,000 units, were stoves. Around 25 per cent of the stoves were heat-retaining stoves, where stone or concrete heat-retaining mass surrounds the metal frame of the stove. This means around 150,000–200,000 units were sold. Around 25,000–35,000 units of traditional heat-retaining fireplaces were sold. In general, heat-retaining products that are compact in size and easy to install are now more popular on the market than before.

In response to this market development, Tulikivi launched the new Jero collection in 2023, which combines the technology of a heatretaining fireplace with the compact size of a stove. The new models have been very well received in the market.

With the introduction of the Jero collection, the fireplaces product group now consists of four consumer-oriented collections.

The Karelia collection is the most advanced heat-retaining fireplace collection in terms of its design, combustion technology and thermal properties, which lives up to the wishes of even the most demanding customers in Central Europe. The soapstone surface finish technologies and the new Tulikivi Color options will broaden the customer base for soapstone fireplaces. The combustion technology of the fireplaces meets even the most stringent requirements in the world. The collection has patented whirlbox technology that allows either wood or pellets to be burnt in the firebox. The heat release of the models in the Karelia collection is adjustable for both low-energy and traditional houses. The combustion of the models in the Karelia collection can be controlled with the Tulikivi Senso fireplace controller if desired.

The models in the Pielinen collection are based on modern Scandinavian design and feature a new soapstone surface finish technology. The products of the Pielinen collection are compact and easy to install. They are particularly well suited for the Central European market and for markets where there is no expertise in installing heat-retaining fireplaces. The special features of the Pielinen products are the versatile door solutions that are developed together with partners.

Tulikivi's fourth collection of soapstone fireplaces is a classic collection made up of popular models from recent decades. It consists of heat-retaining fireplaces, bakeovens and stoves made of soapstone. The strengths of the fireplaces in the collection include classic design and unrivalled heating properties.

Tulikivi's Kermansavi collection is a stylish collection of heat-retaining fireplaces and fireplace/bakeovens and it is based on reusing recycled materials. The new collection beats the emission limit values for fireplaces defined in the EU Ecodesign Directive that entered into force in the EU at the beginning of 2022. In addition to Finland, it is hoped that the new collection will achieve significant growth in the Central European market, where environmental friendliness, Scandinavian design and good firing characteristics are all valued.

All our collections emphasise timeless design, convenience, innovative technology and high quality. Product development focuses on clean combustion, and therefore Tulikivi's products already beat even the toughest emission standards.

Most of our customers are building new homes or renovating existing homes, and they value bioenergy as a form of heating and appreciate the economic advantages of wood-based heating and self-sufficiency. Tulikivi fireplaces appeal to the customers because of their eco-friendliness, energy efficiency, aesthetics and durability, and because of the pleasant heat they produce.

Tulikivi Sauna

The main products of the product group are electric and woodburning sauna heaters, which can be clad with soapstone and other natural stone, and also with ceramic tiles, cast stone and metal. Tulikivi also manufactures sauna heaters for smoke saunas and commercial saunas. Thanks to the large stone compartment, Tulikivi's sauna heaters always give an enjoyable and gentle sauna experience.

The strengths of Tulikivi sauna heaters are the careful attention to safety and design. The fresh and distinctive design attracts consumers and designers in Finland and abroad.

The sauna products are sold under the Tulikivi brand, and their principal markets are Finland and Central Europe. Soapstone interior design stones and tiles are sold as accessories in the Sauna product group and they are very popular on the export market.

Tulikivi Interior

The main products of the Interior product group are countertops made of different natural or composite stone materials or ceramic materials and tiling for different rooms in the home. Tulikivi has an extensive interior stone product collection.

In home construction, natural stone is a genuine and timeless material that is extremely well suited for use in kitchens and bathrooms and for floors, walls and stairs.

As an interior design material, natural stone is environmen tally friendly and fire safe and it also increases the value of the home, because stone wears better than many other surface materials.

The main customer group is Finnish kitchen stores with

which Tulikivi cooperates. Products are also sold directly to home builders and renovators who appreciate the natural aesthetic quality, environmental-friendliness and durability of Tulikivi's interior stone products.

The Interior products are mostly manufactured at Tulikivi's own factory in Espoo, and their principal market is Finland. Soapstone interior design products and countertops are also manufactured for export to various project sites abroad.

Soapstone tiles are Tulikivi's speciality. They are particular ly suitable for bathroom floors as they are not slippery even when wet. The heat-retaining characteristic of soapstone is beneficial in spaces with underfloor heating.

Managing Director's review

Profitability exceeded targets

In 2023, the profitability of the business developed well and the operating margin exceeded 12 per cent. This was made possible by the growth in net sales from exports, good cost control and successful profitability measures. The company's profitability is also supported by the fact that its operations are, to a substantial degree, based on the utilisation of its own soapstone reserves in Finland.

Net sales in export markets in the review period were EUR 30.6 (27.6) million, or 67.6 per cent (62.2) of total consolidated net sales. The largest countries for exports were Germany, France and Sweden. In the review period, net sales in Finland were EUR 14.7 (16.7) million, or 32.4 per cent (37.8) of total consolidated net sales.

Demand slowed in second half of year

After a period of exceptionally high demand for fireplaces, which started in 2022, the market calmed down in the second half of 2023. This was caused by the decline in energy prices during the summer. In addition, high interest rates significantly reduced new construction and housing sales, which led to a decline in consumer building projects in Finland and elsewhere in Europe. At the end of 2023, the company's order books stood at EUR 6.8 (17.2) million.

Balance sheet has strengthened significantly in recent years

Since the beginning of 2019, the company has been able to improve its operating profit for 17 consecutive quarters. The strong profit performance has significantly increased the equity ratio, which stood at 47.8 (39.0) per cent at the end of the review period. The ratio of interest-bearing net debt to equity, or gearing, was 58.4 per cent (72.7). The current ratio was 1.6 (1.3), and equity per share was EUR 0.30 (0.24).

were continued for the expansion of the

distribution network of both Tulikivi and Kermansavi fireplaces. The focus of these activities was on the new Jero collection, which combines the technology of heat-retaining fireplaces with the compact size and modern design of a stove. Central European consumers prefer products in the stove-size range, and the new collection will enable Tulikivi to reach new customer groups. Deliveries of the Jero collection started in the final quarter of the year. Progress in the Suomussalmi talc project The most significant achievements in 2023 were the completion of the locked-cycle tests simulating the industrial beneficiation process, fine milling of the concentrate and the completion of the results from the talc product trials, the completion of the preliminary design of the enrichment plant, and a research and development loan granted by Business Finland. The results of the product trials on plastic and paint applications show that talc products of

The loan was granted for the three-year Carbon Neutral Talc Mine and Process project. In recent years, the company has invested around EUR 2 million in the development of the talc project.

Based on a prefeasibility study, we believe that the decisions made during 2023 in terms of technology and product portfolio will strengthen the competitiveness of the project. The project's profitability is boosted by the largest untapped talc deposit in Europe, the Carbon Neutral Talc Mine and Process concept, and dry stacking of the tailings. These factors also enable responsible production.

Stone supplies and reserves

In accordance with its strategy, Tulikivi Corporation strives to ensure that the company is in possession of the best possible soapstone reserves. The company has been systematically examining soapstone reserves for over 40 years, for example by using the expert services of the Geological Survey of Finland. The aim of examination has been to evaluate current soapstone reserves in greater detail as well as to seek new soapstone reserves.

Tulikivi Corporation's stone supplies and reserves total over 10 million m3. Examined and evaluated deposits are located at Nunnanlahti, Kuhmo, and Suomussalmi. The company has in total six valid mining patents: one at Suomussalmi, one at Kuhmo, and four at Nunnanlahti. The total area of the mining patents is 320 ha. Soapstone is currently quarried and products are manufactured at Nunnanlahti and Suomussalmi. In 2023, the examination of deposits focused on Suomussalmi and Nunnanlahti. Examination of potential deposits and further work on current deposits will continue in 2024.

Stone supplies used sparingly

In geographic terms quarrying is limited to small areas in comparison with, for example, clear cutting of forest resources. A total of approximately 70 000 cubic metres of soapstone is annually quarried from the company's quarries. Approximately from 12 000 to 20 000 cubic metres of quarried soapstone is delivered to three soapstone factories. Adjoining rock, which is not part of the deposits, is quarried annually just under from 50 000 to 100 000 cubic metres. Soil needs also to be moved when excavating quarries in order to access the deposits, from time to time. When a quarry is closed, the area will be made safe and the quarry's stacking area will be landscaped. In accordance with Tulikivi's environmental strategy, sparing use of natural resources is considered important. The overall yield of raw material is improved through development of the production technologies and product development as well as taking account of the properties of raw material. Tulikivi's strategic objective is to ensure sufficient raw material reserves for decades to come.

Environmental aspects of operations

Soapstone is extracted by sawing. The extraction does not require chemical treatment, and no chemicals are used in the quarrying. The saws used in the quarrying run on electricity and do not require cooling water. Only rapeseed or tall oil are used for lubricating the blades. The rainwater entering the quarry is pumped into sedimentation pools through measurement pits. Water samples are taken three times a year in order to monitor the environmental impact of the quarrying operation. Watering is used to prevent the dust from spreading. The noise from the extraction is mainly sawing and machine noise. The noise levels emitted from quarrying are within the permitted limits. In the quarrying work, the explosion breaking of adjoining rock takes place two or four times a month, on average.

Quarrying process accords with environmental and mining permits

The principal goals of Tulikivi's operations are as follows: a safe and healthy working environment, the sparing use of natural resources and the management of quarrying and production processes that minimizes

adverse environmental effects. Tulikivi takes environmental considerations into account in its procurement of raw materials, in production and in the end products. Tulikivi monitors the environmental effects of its operations in accordance with officially approved monitoring programmes. Tulikivi has permits for its entire production and for the storage and use of blasting materials, granted by the environmental and mining authorities.

Suomussalmi talc reserves

Our goal is to transform the Suomussalmi soapstone factory into a modern production facility producing carbon-neutral and traceable talc and to ensure the industrial utilization of talc reserves. This allows us to offer responsibly produced European talc for our daily needs, including plastics, paints and packaging.

The most significant achievements in 2023 included the completion of locked cycle tests simulating an industrial enrichment process, fine grinding of concentrate and talc application test results, completion of the preliminary design of the concentrator plant and obtaining a research and development loan granted by Business Finland.

During the year, we produced the first pilot products, which were tested for plastic and paint applications. The concentrate from the locked cycle enrichment tests was used to produce talc products with an average grain size ranging from about 2.5 microns to 5

microns. Based on the results of plastic and paint application tests of talc products, Haaponen's talc ore can be used to produce talc products with competitive properties compared to talc products on the market. At the end of the year, preparations began for the production of a larger batch of concentrate. The preliminary design of the concentrator plant was based on the results of the locked cycle tests and included consideration of tailings filtration and water purification needs. During the preliminary design, the flow diagram of the enrichment process was confirmed, and the necessary equipment was pre-selected and preliminary dimensioning was carried out to estimate e.g. the energy and consumables consumption required by the process.

Tailings filtration enables dry stacking of tailings and a more closed water circulation. The water treatment plant ensures the quality of both process and discharged water. It was noteworthy that the buildings and infrastructure in the mining area can also be utilized in the planned talc production. Attention was paid to occupational safety and environmental aspects, and the work done creates a good basis for minimizing risks and harms.

The EUR 1.6 million research and development loan granted by Business Finland significantly strengthened the financing of the talc project. The loan has been granted for the Carbon-neutral talc mine and concentrator project, the duration of which is 3 years. In recent years, the company has invested a total of approximately EUR 2 million in the development of the talc project.

The company will continue to investigate the possibilities of utilizing talc production side streams. Tailings contain almost 40% magnesium oxide and magnesium is listed as critical raw material by the EU. The utilization of tailings would significantly improve the resource efficiency of the project.

In addition to technical design and profitability analysis, studies and modelling required by the environmental impact assessment report (EIA report) have been carried out. Stakeholder

work has been an important part. The project's monitoring group, which consists of local residents, representatives of associations and landowners, and authorities, has met four times during the year. In addition, a general information and discussion event related to the resident survey was organized.

Based on the preliminary feasibility study, we believe that the decisions made during the year regarding the technology used and product portfolio will strengthen the competitiveness of the project. Europe's largest unexploited talc deposit, the Carbon-neutral talc mine and concentrator concept, and dry tailings stacking support the profitability of the project and enable responsible production.

The carbon footprint was determined to be 8308.96 t CO2e (equivalent ton of carbon dioxide). This is 248 t CO2e/million € turnover or 41 t CO2e/person. Tulikivi is one of the pioneers in its own field, because there was no direct comparison point in the industry (fireplaces). However, the magnitude of the footprint can be illustrated as follows; 1 ton of CO2e emissions is equivalent to driving 6798 km by car (Liikennefakta 2021) and the average annual emissions of Finns are about 10 tons of CO2e (Sitra 2018). If the emissions are divided for each manufactured fireplaces, they correspond to ap-proximately 10,000 km of driving a car towards the one fireplace. The result obtained and the breakdown

related to it will be used as a basis for planning Tulikivi's measures when the purpose is to strive reduce emissions and gradually strive towards carbon neutrali-ty. The calculation is to be updated in 2024.

Soapstone made a prominent appearance at the Habitarematerials exhibitions in Milan and Helsinki in 2023

The Habitarematerials exhibition held in Milan in April provided a splendid stage for soapstone when NEMO architects designed an experiential material library consisting of materials from 14 Finnish companies. This exhibition, which was part of the most interesting events of Milan Design Week and included in the Alcova exhibition curated by Joseph Grima and Valentina Ciuffi, highlighted the unique beauty and versatility of soapstone.

The versatility and eco-friendliness of soapstone took center stage at Helsinki's Habitarematerials

In Helsinki, the Habitarematerials exhibition at the Habitare fair brought to the forefront the diversity and ecological benefits of soapstone with a touch of Milan in September. Attendees were able to deeply explore the materials of participating companies with the help of a new tool for comparing environmental impacts.

Launch of the Jero collection at the World of Fireplaces fair in Leipzig

At the World of Fireplaces fair in Leipzig, from April 17th to 19th, 2023, Tulikivi unveiled its new product, the Jero collection, revolutionizing the fireplace and stove market. The fair showcased the round Puro models and the angular Korpi models. The collection innovatively combines the compact size known from stoves with the efficient heating and heat retention properties of traditional soapstone fireplaces.

A key goal in the design of the collection has also been to speed up the installation phase. The compact size and quick installation work mean that the fireplaces are significantly cheaper for consumers than traditional large fireplaces, offering Tulikivi also the opportunity to increase sales in the large stove markets of Central Europe.

The design of the collection emphasizes the natural essence of soapstone and its different surface structures, as well as the experiential and visual aspects of fire. The Jero collection's fireplaces are based on soapstone sourced from Tulikivi's own quarries combined with Kermansavi's ceramic recycled mass. All Tulikivi fireplaces are designed and manufactured in North Karelia. The new collection is named after Lake Jero, located near Koli.

Innovations in sustainable living at the Loviisa Housing Fair

The Housing Fair held in Loviisa's Queen's Beach from July 7th to August 6th, 2023, offered a unique look at responsible and sustainable housing solutions in an idyllic maritime landscape. Tulikivi stood out with its booth, extensively showcasing its updated fireplace collection, the advanced control technology of saunas, and presenting its products in six fair homes, where fireplaces, saunas, and decorative stones played a central role.

Highlights of the fair included the floating Lovisea house, where Tulikivi's sauna heater and stone countertops were prominently displayed. The Cranberry fair home, on the other hand, provided a comprehensive overview of Tulikivi's product range. Fair visitors crowned the seaside Villa Havet as their favorite, whose sauna was awarded by the Sauna from Finland association as one of the fair's most experiential saunas. The innovative heating solution of the Kinos woodburning sauna heater from the terrace side received praise from the jury. Additionally, Villa Aurora rose as the public's favorite, where Tulikivi's Raita S 2D heat-retaining fireplace was responsible for its warmly atmospheric ambiance.

The next-generation sauna heaters concept premiered at the Helsinki Design Week Merikortteli

Tulikivi was part of the largest Nordic design and architecture festival, Helsinki Design Week 2023, held in Helsinki's Merikortteli in September, which offered a unique stage for Tulikivi's next-generation sauna heaters concept and innovative sauna controller.

The next-generation sauna heaters concept presented at Tulikivi's booth combined a compact and minimalist design, smaller safety distances, easy integration into sauna benches, and adjustability in height. The concept utilizes innovative optimization of the amount of sauna stones relative to the stove's power, which allows for energy savings.

Tulikivi's business idea and values

The Tulikivi Group specialises in fireplaces, sauna heaters and interior stone products that are of a high quality and made from natural materials. Our customers appreciate the environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing nature of our products, the comfort created by these products and the benefits of wood heating. Tulikivi is a versatile company that appreciates its customers, entrepreneurship and fair play.

Environmental Policy

Engaging in mining activities requires the forming of a mining concession and an environmental permit. Mining operations are regulated by the Mining Act and environmental legislation. The director in charge of quarrying is responsible for ensuring that mining permits are valid and up to date.

Tulikivi's environmental strategy is geared towards systematic progress in environmental efforts in specified sub-areas. The aim of environmental work is to improve the company's ability to use natural resources sparingly and to manage processes and products in a way that minimises their environmental loading. The Group complies with the environmental legislation and norms that concern its operations, and, through the continuous improvement of Tulikivi's operations, it engages in preventive environmental work. The Group acknowledges and is aware of its responsibility as an environmental operator.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REPORT 2023

Operating environment

Net sales and profit

The high heating energy prices and the uncertainties related to energy availability of the previous heating season were still fresh in the memories of consumers and are estimated to have continued to influence the growth in demand for Tulikivi products. In addition to the general economic downturn, demand is likely to be weakened in particular by the downturn in new construction and renovation. Similarly, country-specific construction and emissions regulations and investment subsidies are estimated to have affected demand.

The EU Ecodesign Directive entered into force on 1 January 2022, and as a result emission regulations for fireplaces were harmonised and became stricter in the European Union. In connection with the change, Finland's emissions requirements for ready-made fireplaces also became stricter to match the Central European level. This change is expected to benefit Tulikivi because its combustion technology met the new requirements for fireplaces well before the implementation of the change. In this respect, the Jero collection is a good complement to the collection as a whole.

The Tulikivi Group's fourth-quarter net sales totalled EUR 9.9 million (EUR 13.8 million in 10–12/2022), the operating profit was EUR 0.6 (1.5) million and the result before taxes was EUR 0.5 (1.5) million. After the exceptionally high demand for fireplaces starting in 2022, the market situation calmed down in the second half of 2023. This was influenced by energy prices, which started to decline in the summer. In addition, high interest rates significantly

reduced new construction and housing sales, leading to a decline in consumer building projects in Finland and elsewhere in Europe. In the fourth quarter, the company's order intake was EUR 7.4 (14.3) million. Tulikivi's order books remained at a good level, although below the 2022 peak, and amounted to EUR 6.8 (17.2) million at the end of the review period.

The Tulikivi Group's net sales in the review period totalled EUR 45.3 million (EUR 44.3 million in 1–12/2022), the operating profit was EUR 5.5 (4.7) million and the result before taxes was EUR 4.9 (4.1) million. The growth in net sales is attributable to systematic long-term work to renew the product portfolio, the development of online sales and the streamlining of distribution channels in export markets. In 2023, the profitability of the business developed well and the operating margin exceeded the long-term financial target of 12 per cent. The good profitability was made possible by the growth in net sales from exports, good cost control and successful profitability measures. The company's profitability is also supported by the fact that its operations are, to a substantial degree, based on the utilisation of its own soapstone reserves in Finland.

In the review period, net sales in Finland were EUR 14.7 (16.7) million, or 32.4 per cent (37.8) of total consolidated net sales. Measures to improve sales and customer experience were continued in Finland in order to increase renovation sales despite the weakened market situation.

Net sales in export markets in the review period were EUR 30.6 (27.6) million, or 67.6 per cent (62.2) of total consolidated net sales. The largest countries for exports were Germany, France and Sweden. In Central Europe, sales and training activities were continued for the expansion of the distribution network of both Tulikivi and Kermansavi fireplaces. These

measures focused on the new compact Jero collection, the deliveries of which started as planned in the final quarter. The Jero collection has been very well received in all markets, by retailers and consumers alike. Consumers in Central Europe prefer products in the stove-size range, and the new Jero collection will enable Tulikivi to reach new customer groups.

The sauna business focused on the commercialisation of a new range of electric sauna heaters. It will be launched for domestic and export markets during spring 2024. The collection highlights the great features of Tulikivi sauna heaters: high-quality design, energy efficiency, original materials and safety. The strong profit performance of recent years provides a good basis for advancing the key projects in Tulikivi's strategy. The main objectives are to grow the market share in the Central European fireplace market, to increase the net sales of the sauna business, and move the Suomussalmi talc project forward to the investment stage.

Net cash flow from operating activities was EUR 2.2 (2.8) million in the fourth quarter, and EUR 4.9 (6.3) million during the review period. Working capital totalled EUR 5.2 (2.4) million at the end of the review period. The increase was mainly due to an increase in inventories and a decrease in trade payables and accrued expenses.

Loan repayments totalled EUR 2.3 (1.1) million in the review period. During the review period, EUR 0.6 million was used for the development of the talcum powder project from a research

The results of the product testing of finely ground planned talc products for plastic and paint applications that were started in the autumn were completed at the end of the year. These results show that talc products of competitive quality compared to the characteristics of talc products on the market can be made from the enriched Haaponen talc. It is worth noting that these are the first experimental products, and that there has not

yet been time to optimise their characteristics. During the fourth quarter, preparations were started for the production of a significantly larger batch of concentrate, which will enable the grinding and specification of finely ground end products.

Utilising the side streams from talc production would improve the resource efficiency and profitability of the project. The plan is to use the adjoining rock and soil from the mining operations for construction and landscaping in 4.9 5 Result Before Income Tax, MEUR Return on Equity, % Development of the Sales, MEUR 4.9 Result Before Income Tax, MEUR Return on Equity, % Development of the Sales, MEUR 4.9 50.0

impact will be taken into account in the Environmental Impact Assessment Report, which is intended to be submitted to the ELY

Centre, the contact authority, in the second quarter of 2024.

Based on a prefeasibility study, we believe that the decisions made during 2023 in terms of technology and product portfolio will strengthen the competitiveness of the project. The project's profitability is boosted by the largest untapped talc deposit in Europe, a carbon-neutral talc mine and talc enrichment plant concept, and dry stacking of the tailings. These factors also enable responsible production.

In recent years, the company has invested around EUR 2.2 million in the development of the talc project.

Nevertheless, despite the good progress it is still too early to evaluate whether the project will be carried out or to estimate its financial impacts. Result Before Income Tax, MEUR Return on Equity, % Development of the Sales, MEUR 50.0 50.0

Non-recurring items

To ensure comparability between reporting periods, the Group classifies certain items of expense and income as non-recurring items in its financial reporting. The Group presents as non-recurring items expenses and income related to the restructuring of the Group's operations, non-recurring impairment losses on goodwill and assets, and other exceptional items that materially distort the comparability of the profitability of the Group's core business.

The amount of soapstone used is affected by factory-specific capacity as well as yield of stone in the quarry and the factory in a given time.

Acquired natural stone, 1 000 tonne	1	1	1

Leftover clippings from production are partly used as filling for earthwork sites, the rest is stacked in stacking areas or is transferred to a waste disposal site. The natural stone is purchased from external suppliers.

The ceramic fireplace production uses mainly recycled porcelain fracture, feldspar and various kinds of cements as raw material for concrete products. The amount of ceramic materials used annually is approximately 1 500 tonnes. The amount of surface tiles used in coating of ceramic fireplaces supplied annually is approximately 50 tonnes and waste from cutting of ceramic tile slabs is directed to the sedimentation basin. Normal washing water and waste from the ceramic and concrete production is directed to the sedimentation basin on the factory area from which the solids are carried to the dumping ground.

In 2023, 5 954 cubic meter new process water was taken in Group's production processes. Soapstone manufacturing uses a closed process water cycle. In the Espoo plant part of process waters is recyclable, in the Heinävesi production plant process waters are treated in sedimentation basins. In Heinävesi process waters are led through sedimentation basins to the water system as overflow to drainage network or they absorb into ground. Quarry waters are led to the water system through sedimentation basins. Domestic waste water is led to the municipal waste water system or in absence of such a system, in filted fields.

Accounting Principles for Financial Statements

1.1. Basis of Preparation

These are the financial statements of the Group. They have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and in compliance with the IAS and IFRS standards as well as the SIC and IFRIC interpretations in force as at 31 December 2023. The term IFRS refers to the standards and interpretations that are approved for adoption in the Finnish Accounting Act and regulations issued

EU Regulation (EY) No 1606/2002. The notes to the consolidated financial statements also comply with the additional requirements under the Finnish accounting and company legislation.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on the original acquisition costs, unless stated otherwise in the preparation principles below. The consolidated financial

statements are presented in thousands of euros. The Group has reviewed the interpretations of IFRS standards and their amendments, valid at 31 December 2023. The interpretations and amendments to the standards that came into force during the financial year had no effect on the consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the management to make certain estimates and judgements. Information about the areas where the management has exercised judgment in the application of the Group's accounting principles and which have the most impact on the figures presented in the financial statements is presented in the accounting policies under "Critical management judgments in applying the entity's accounting principles and major sources of estimation uncertainty".

1.2. Accounting Policies for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Subsidiaries

by virtue to it and endorsed in the EU in accordance with the procedure defined in the The consolidated financial statements include the parent company, Tulikivi Corporation, and all its subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are companies,

over which the Group has control. Control exists when the Group owns more than half of the voting rights, or it otherwise has control. Tulikivi has control when, by being a shareholder in the company, it is exposed to the company's variable return or is entitled to its variable return and it is able to influence this return by using its power over the company.

Intragroup share holdings are eliminated using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred and the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquired company are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group, and

the disposed subsidiaries until the control ceases. Intragroup transactions, receivables, liabilities, unrealised gains, and intragroup distribution of profits are eliminated when preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the loss is due to impairment. Tulikivi Corporation owns its subsidiaries in full, therefore the Group's profit for the year or equity do not include non-controlling interests.

Translation of Foreign Currency Items

The results and financial positions of subsidiaries are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is the parent company's functional and presentation currency.

Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using the foreign exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date. In practice, exchange rates close to the rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions are usually used. Monetary items are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date. Non-monetary items, which are valued at fair values, are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the fair value reporting date. Non-monetary items are otherwise translated using the exchange rate at the transaction date.

Exchange differences of transactions in foreign currencies and translation of monetary items are recognised through profit or loss. Exchange differences resulting from business operations are recognised in the respective items in the income statement as part of the operating profit. Gains or losses arising from borrowings and cash in bank are recognised in finance income and expenses.

Translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries

Income and expenses in the statements of comprehensive income of the foreign subsidiaries are translated at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions and the statements of financial position are translated at closing rates at the reporting date. The consolidation of the group's subsidiaries uses the official ECB exchange rate for the US dollar (USD) and the exchange rates reported by Kauppalehti as the exchange rate for the Russian ruble (RUB). Exchange differences arising from translation of comprehensive income with different exchange rates in the statement of comprehensive income and in the to the cost of preparing the asset for its intended use. Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as a part of the cost of the asset.

statement of financial position are recorded within equity and this change is recognised in other comprehensive income. Translation differences arising from eliminating the cost of foreign subsidiaries and from translating the foreign subsidiaries' accumulated post-acquisition equity are recognised in other comprehensive income. When a subsidiary is disposed of, in part or in full, the accumulated translation difference is restated in profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. The Group did not acquire or sell any foreign subsidiaries in 2022–2023. When the asset consists of several items with different useful lives, each item will be dealt with as a separate asset. In this case the replacement costs of the item are capitalised and any remaining part of the asset is derecognised. Otherwise subsequent costs are included in the book value of an item of property, plant and equipment only when it is probable that the Group will gain the future economic benefits associated with the item and that it will be

Goodwill arising from the acquisitions of foreign entities and related fair value adjustments to the assets and liabilities of the acquired entities are recognised as assets and liabilities of the said foreign entities. and are translated into euros using the exchange rates at the reporting date.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment assets are measured in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment charges.

Cost includes expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition of an item of property, plant and equipment. The cost of a self-constructed asset includes material costs, direct employee

possible to measure the cost reliably. Other repair and maintenance costs are charged to the income statement when they occur.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based on the useful lives of the assets. Land areas are not depreciated except for mining areas, where depreciations are recognised based on the consumption of the rock material and stacking area filling time. The useful lives are as follows:

The useful lives are as follows:

Buildings	25 to 30 years
Constructions	5 years
Process machinery	3 to 15 years
Motor vehicles	5 to 8 years
Others	3 to 5 years
Equipment	3 to 5 years
investment property	10 to 20 years

benefit costs and other direct costs attributable The assets' residual values and useful lives are

reviewed at each financial year-end at the minimum and adjusted, if appropriate, to describe any changes in the anticipated economic benefits.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is discontinued when the item of property, plant and equipment is classified as being held for sale in accordance with the IFRS 5 Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. The Group had no items of property, plant and equipment classified as held for sale during the years 2022 and 2023. Gains and losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment are recognised through profit or loss and presented in other operating income and expenses. Gain/loss on sale is determined based on the difference between the disposal price and the residual value.

Government Grants

Government grants, for example grants from the state, related to the purchase of property, plant and equipment or intangible assets are deducted from the carrying amount of the asset when there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the group will comply with attached conditions. The grants are recognised through profit or loss through the depreciation/amortisation made over the useful life of the asset. Grants received as compensation for expenses already incurred are recognised through profit or loss during the period in which they become receivable. Such government grants are presented within other operating income.

Leases

- Group as lessee

Tulikivi records the rent, contractual debt and the corresponding right-of-use asset at the time the lease agreement begins. Rents are discounted at the Group's incremental borrowing rate. The right-of-use assets are measured at acquisition cost at the inception of the contract, including the original amount of the lease liability; any initial direct costs and estimated restoration costs of the asset, and any rents paid up to the date of inception of the contract, less any incentives received. The lease term for the lease is the period during which the lease is non-cancellable. The period included in the lease is increased by the period of the option to extend or terminate, if it is reasonably certain that the Group will exercise the extend option or will not exercise the terminate option. Leases for business premises are mainly for three years. There are two reliefs for short-term leases of up to 12 months and assets of up to USD 5 000 with regard to recognition in the balance sheet. The company applied some of the recognition exemptions allowed by the standard, according to which short-term leases and leases where the underlying asset has a low value are not recognised on the balance sheet. With regard to leases valid until further notice, the company only recognises leases with a notice period of more than 12 months on its balance sheet. Some leases for business premises include an index term that is included in the amount of the lease liability, as are the minimum increase terms. After the inception of the contract, the Group values the non-current asset using the acquisition cost model. The right-of-use asset period are recognised as revenue on a straight-line basis. There are no finance leases.

is measured at cost less depreciation and Intangible assets and goodwill

impairment losses. In addition, the carrying amount of a non-current asset is restated to the value of the lease liability if the lease liability is re-measured during the lease term. If the value of the asset is zero, the adjustment is recognised through profit or loss. The residual An intangible asset is initially entered in the balance sheet at the acquisition cost in the event that the acquisition cost can be determined reliably and it is likely that the expected future financial benefit resulting from the asset will benefit the group.

reviewed as necessary but at least in all financial - Goodwill

statements, and any impairment is recognised if there is any change in the expected future economic benefits from the right-of-use asset. The Group values the lease liability in subsequent periods using the effective interest method. The lease liability is redefined if future lease payments are subject to change due to index increases or price changes, or changes to Goodwill arising on business combinations taking place is recognised as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred, the recognised amount of non-controlling interests and previously held equity interest in the acquired company, over the Group's share of the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired.

rentals payable under the residual value guarantee. In addition, changes in the estimates of the purchase option or the option to extend or terminate the asset may lead to a revaluation of the lease liability. Goodwill is not amortised but tested annually for impairment. For this purpose the goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units. The goodwill is measured at historical cost less impairment.

- Group as lessor

- Research and development costs

Assets leased by the Group are included in property, plant and equipment or investment properties in the balance sheet. They are depreciated over their useful lives consistent with the Group's normal depreciation policy. Some of the leased assets are subleased. Lease income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Group has only a small number of operational leases in which leases received during the lease Research costs are expensed in the income statement as incurred. Development costs arising from planning of new or improved products are capitalised as intangible assets in the balance sheet when costs arising from the development phase can be reliable measured, the entity can demonstrate the technological and commercial feasibility of the product and the Group has the intention and resources to complete the development work. Capitalised

development costs comprise the material, labour and test costs that are directly incurred when making the assets capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Development costs previously expensed cannot be capitalised later.

The group records depreciation on right-of-use assets as well as own-owned assets. Assets not available for use are tested annually for impairment. After initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. The useful life of the capitalised development costs is 3 to 10 years during which the capitalised costs are expensed using the straight-line method.

- Mineral resource exploration and evaluation costs

Costs of exploration and evaluation of soapstone resources are mainly capitalised. However, costs of exploration and evaluation of soapstone resources are expensed in the statement of comprehensive income when there is significant uncertainty related to commercial viability. Elements of cost of exploration and evaluation are geographical studies, exploration drilling, trenching, sampling and activities in relation to evaluating the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting mineral resources.

After initial recognition the Group applies the cost model and the assets are amortised over 5 to 10 years. The exploration and evaluation assets are classified as a separate intangible asset category until it is possible to demonstrate technical feasibility and commercial viability. Afterwards the exploration and evaluation assets are reclassified to other intangible assets. The exploration and evaluation activities may only start once the Ministry of Employment and the Economy has granted a right of appropriation.

- Other intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recognised in the balance sheet at cost only if the cost of the item can be measured reliably and it is probable that the Group will gain the future economic benefits associated with the asset.

Costs arising from establishing the soapstone quarries and construction of roads, dams and other site facilities related to the quarry are also capitalised, and are considered to be an intangible asset based on their ownership in the quarry. It can take years to establish a quarry. Amortisation of quarry lands, basins and other auxiliary structures begins when the quarry is ready and taken into production use, and the amortisation is allocated over the useful life of the quarry, that is, over the extraction period using the unit of production method. The extraction periods vary by quarry and can last tens of years. The amount of amortisation in unit of production method is the portion of the cost equalling the portion of extracted rock during the reporting period from the estimated total extractable amount of rock of the quarry. The amortisation period of quarries in the production phase varies from ten to twenty years. The amortisation of construction expenses of roads and dams begins in the construction year.

Intangible assets with a finite useful life are recognised as expenses on a straight-line basis over the known or estimated useful life of the asset.

Cloud service arrangements

The accounting treatment of cloud service arrangements depends on whether the cloud-based software is classified as an intangible asset or a service contract. Those arrangements in which Tulikivi does not have control over the software in question are treated in accounting as service contracts, which give the group the right to use the cloud service provider's application software during the contract period. The ongoing license fees for the application software, as well as configuration or customization costs related to the software, are recorded under Other business expenses when the services are received.

Amortisation periods of other intangible assets are as follows:

Patents and trademarks	5 to 20 years
Development costs	3 to 10 years
Distribution channel	10 years
Mineral resource exploration
and evaluation costs	5 to 10 years
Quarrying areas and basins =
unit of production method
Quarrying area roads and dams 5 to 15 years
Computer software	3 to 10 years
Others	5 years

Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost is determined using the weighted average cost method. The cost of quarried blocks is affected by the stone yield percentage. The cost of acquiring finished products includes all costs of purchase, including direct transportation, handling and other costs. The cost of own finished goods and work in progress consists of raw materials, direct labour input, other direct costs and related variable and fixed production overheads systematically allocated on a reasonable basis on a normal capacity of the production facilities. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.

Impairment of tangible and intangible assets The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is assessed. In addition, the recoverable amount is assessed annually for the following assets, whether or not there is an indication of impairment: goodwill and intangible assets not yet available. Mineral resource exploration and evaluation assets are tested always before reclassification of the assets in question. For the purpose of assessing criteria for recognising an impairment loss assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash-generating units with separately identifiable cash flows. The Group's corporate assets, which contribute to several cash-generating units and which do not generate separate cash flows, have been allocated to cash-generating units in a reasonable and consistent manner and they are tested as a part of each cash-generating unit. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Value in use is the value, discounted to the

present value, of the future cash flows expected to be derived from an asset or a cash-generating unit. A pre-tax rate, which reflects the market view on the time value of money and assetspecific risks is used as the discount rate.

An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the recoverable amount. The impairment loss is immediately recognised through profit or loss. If an impairment loss is allocated to a cash-generating unit, it is first recognised as a deduction of

the goodwill allocated to the unit and then on a pro-rata basis to unit's other assets. When an impairment loss is recognised, the useful life of the asset to be depreciated / amortised is reassessed. For other assets except for goodwill, the impairment loss is reversed when there is a change in those estimates that were used when the recoverable amount of the asset was determined. The increased carrying amount must not, however, exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognised in prior years. Previously recognised impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed for any reason.

Employee Benefits - Short-term employment benefits

Short-term employee benefits include salaries, bonuses, benefits in kind, annual vacations and bonuses. These costs are recorded for the period in which the work in question is performed.

- Pension obligations

Pension plans are classified either as defined benefit plans or defined contribution plans. In defined contribution plans the group makes fixed

contributions into a separate entity. The Group has no legal or constructive obligation to pay any further contributions if the receiver of payments is not able to pay the pension benefits in question. All other pension plans that do not meet these conditions are defined benefit plans. The contributions made to defined contribution plans are recognised through profit or loss in the period which they are due. Group's pension plans are defined contribution plans.

Provisions and Contingent Liabilities

A provision is recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and when a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. A provision is measured at the present value of the expenditure required to settle the obligation. The discount factor used in the calculation of the present value is determined so that it reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money and risks related to the obligation. The amount of the provisions is assessed at each reporting date and adjusted to correspond to the current best estimate at the time of evaluation. Changes in provisions are recognised in the comprehensive income statement in the same item in which the provision was originally recognised.

A warranty provision is recognised when the product subject to the warranty is sold. The amount of the warranty provision relies on the statistical information of historical warranty realisation.

A provision for restructuring is recognised when the Group has prepared a detailed restructuring plan and the restructuring has commenced or those affected have been informed about the restructuring plan. No provisions are recognised on expenses related to the Group's continuing operations.

A provision of onerous contracts is recognised when the incremental costs exceed the benefits received from the contract.

Based on environmental legislation, the Group has obligations related to the restoration of quarry areas to their original condition. A provision has been entered in the consolidated financial statements for environmental liabilities, which covers the costs of water monitoring related to the closure of the quarries during the time, safety arrangements and the final upholstery of the landfill areas. For the quarries currently open, expenditure is estimated to be generated in about nine years on average, and the estimated expenditure is discounted to the present

A contingent liability is a contingent obligation as a result of a past event and its existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group. An existing obligation in which the payment obligation probably does not need to be settled or whose amount that cannot be reliably estimated is also considered a contingent liability. Contingent liabilities are disclosed in the notes.

Current and Deferred Taxes

Income tax expense comprises current tax based on taxable income for the period and deferred tax. Taxes are recognised through profit or loss, except when they relate to items recognised

directly in equity or in other comprehensive income. In this case, tax is also recognised within the item in question. Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of the taxable profit for the period and is calculated on the basis of the local tax legislation.

Deferred tax is recorded on temporary differences between the accounting values and tax values of assets and liabilities on the balance sheet date, unused tax losses and unused tax-related credits. Deferred tax debt is usually recorded in full on the balance sheet. However, the deferred tax is not accounted for if it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination and the transaction does not affect accounting or taxable profit or loss at the time of execution.

Deferred tax is recognised for investments in subsidiaries and associates, with the exception that the Group is able to control the timing of the

reversal of the temporary difference and it is not probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future.

The Group´s most significant temporary differences arise from depreciation of property, measuring derivatives at fair value, tax losses carried forward and fair value measurement associated to business combinations.

Deferred tax is determined using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. The recognition criteria of a deferred tax asset in this respect are assessed at each reporting date.

Revenue Recognition - Sold goods and rendered services

Tulikivi's revenue consists of sales of products and sales of installation and freight services. In accordance with the IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers standard, Tulikivi recognises revenue to express the sale of goods and rendering of services to customers as an amount that reflects the consideration to which Tulikivi expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. A five-step model is used to record sales revenue. 1. Identification of contracts with the customer. 2. Identification of performance obligations under all contracts. 3. Determining the purchase price. 4. Allocation of the purchase price to the performance obligations under the contract. 5. Sales revenue is recognised as performance obligations are met. The model determines when and to what extent sales revenue is recognised. The model identifies Tulikivi's customer contract, the contract performance obligations, defines the transaction prices, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations, and records sales revenue. Revenue is recognised when the customer is deemed to have control over the promised goods or services at a point in time.

- Interest income and dividends

Interest income is recognised according to the effective interest rate method and dividend income when the right to the dividend has arisen.

Financial assets and financial liabilities -Financial Assets

The classification of the Group's financial assets depends on the purpose for which the financial

asset was acquired and is made at initial recognition. The classification is based on the objectives of the business model and the contractual cash flows of the financial assets or on applying the fair value option at initial acquisition. The Group has recognised all financial assets at amortised cost and did not have any financial assets recognised at fair value. Transaction costs are included in the initial value of all the financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. All purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised at trade date.

All accounts receivables and cash are recognised under the item. According to the Group's business model, accounts receivable is intended to hold contracts and to collect cash flows relating to them, which are solely based on capital or interest.

Assets classified in the group are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amount of current receivables and other receivables is assumed to be equal to fair value. The Group recognises a deduction for expected credit losses on a financial asset that is measured at amortised cost.

Trade and other receivables are, by their nature, current or non-current assets. Items are included in the balance sheet as current or non-current receivables, the latter if they are due after more than 12 months. For trade receivables a simplified procedure is used whereby credit losses are recognised at an amount equal to the expected loss for the entire life of the loan. Credit losses recognised are based on historical information on bad debts.

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand,

deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and for which the risk of changes in value is insignificant. Cash and cash equivalents mature in three months or less.

Impairment of financial assets

For the estimation of expected credit losses on trade receivables, the so-called simplified approach is used, according to which credit losses are recorded at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses. Expected credit losses are estimated based on historical credit losses, and the model also takes into account the information available on future financial conditions at the time of review.

Financial liabilities

In the financial years 2023 and 2022, the group

only had financial liabilities valued at amortized cost. Financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction costs are included in the initial carrying amount for those financial liabilities carried at amortised cost. Subsequently financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Financial liabilities may comprise current and non-current liabilities. Financial liabilities are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to postpone the settlement of the liability at least 12 months from the reporting date.

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as a part of the cost of that asset when it is probable that they will result in future economic benefits and the costs

can be measured reliably. Other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. Fees related to the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the loan facility will be drawn down. In these cases, the fees are capitalised in the balance sheet until the drawdown occurs. As the loan is drawn down, any related transaction fees are recognised as part of transaction expenses. To the extent that it is probable that the loan facility will not be drawn down, the fees are capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.

The principles applied in determination of fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in Note 28 Carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities by category and their fair values.

Treasury shares

If Tulikivi Corporation repurchases its own equity instruments the cost of these instruments is deducted from equity.

Operating profit / result

The IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements does not define the concept of operating profit. The Group has defined it as follows: the operating profit is the net amount attained when other operating income is added to and

purchase expenses adjusted with changes in finished goods, and work in progress and costs of production for own use, employee benefit expenses, depreciation and amortisation, any impairment charges and other operating expenses are deducted from net sales. All other items are presented below operating profit in the income statement. Exchange rate differences and the fair value changes of derivatives are included in operating profit if they result from business operations, otherwise they are recognised in the financial items. Negative operating profit is referred to as Operating result in the reporting.

Critical management judgments in applying the entity's accounting principles and major sources of estimation uncertainty

The company's management must make estimates and assumptions when preparing the financial statements and their results may differ from previous estimates and assumptions. In addition, the company's management is required to exercise discretion in applying the accounting policies.

Judgments and assumptions are based on the management's best estimate as at the reporting date. The estimates are based on earlier experience and assumptions of the future considered to be most probable at the reporting date, relating to i.a. expected development of the economic environment in which the Group operates affecting the sales volumes and expenses. The Group monitors realisation of the estimates, the assumptions and the changes in the underlying factors regularly in cooperation with business units by using various, both internal and external sources of information. Possible revisions to estimates and assumptions are recognised in the period in which the estimates and assumptions are revised and in any future periods affected.

At Tulikivi the key assumptions about the future

and major sources of estimation uncertainty as at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are related to, amongst others, deferred tax assets, measurement of inventories, property, plant and equipment related to quarries, fair value measurement and impairment testing, that are described in detail below. The Group management believes that these are the key areas in the financial statements, since they include the most complex accounting policies and require most significant estimates and assumptions. In addition, changes in the estimates and assumptions used in these areas of financial statements are estimated to have the most extensive effects.

Impairment testing

The Group tests goodwill, intangible assets not yet available for use annually for potential impairment and assesses indications of impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets at each reporting date. In addition, regarding mineral resource exploration and evaluation assets, impairment tests are performed when the assets are reclassified. The recoverable amounts of the cash-generating units are assessed based on their value in use. The preparation of such calculations requires the use of estimates, especially in respect of future growth estimates of the cash-generating units and changes in profitability.

Further information on the sensitivity of the recoverable amount to the changes in the assumptions used can be found in Note 16.3 Impairment testing.

16. Goodwill and trademark, thousand euros

16.1. Goodwill allocation

The Group's goodwill is EUR 2.8 (2.8) million. Of this, EUR 2.2 million has been allocated to fireplaces and EUR 0.6 million to interior stones, which form separate cash-generating units.The soapstone fireplaces and ceramic fireplaces share financial, administrative, IT and product development functions, as well as the sales and marketing functions of the businesses. In addition, they have common production and procurement functions, so the units naturally integrate into one entity as a result of common processes and cash flows.

The goodwill of the Kermansavi trademark that was acquired in conjunction with the acquisition of Kermansavi Oy was EUR 2.24 (2.4) million on the reporting date and it is allocated in its entirety to the Fireplaces business. The economic exposure time of the trademark is set to be 20 years as of June 1, 2020.

The carrying amounts of goodwill and trade mark were allocated as follows:	Interior stone products	Fireplaces
2023
Goodwill	632	2 229
Trademark	-	2 226
Total	632	4 455

16.2. Recognition and allocation of impairment losses

Tulikivi's earnings improved during the year 2023 and the result of the impairment test showed no impairment.

16.3. Impairment testing

In impairment testing, the recoverable amounts of the cash-generating units are determined based on their value in use. The cash-flow projections are based on management fo- recasts covering a five-year period. The calculations used in testing long-term forecasts are approved by the government's strategic objectives clearly lower. Assumptions about the level of profitability are based on management's views, which are affected by the actual development, the competitive situation in the market, the development of the compe- titive position of the cash-generating unit and Tulikivi's development and savings measures. The pre-tax discount rate used in impairment testing was 13.0 (15.9) per cent for fi- replaces and 13.0 per cent for interior stones (15.9), which correspond to the weighted average cost of capital, taking into account the risk premium. In Fireplaces the net-sales improvement of 3.0 per cent is based on a new add sales for new product models and price increase made in 2023. Cost savings are based on savings from the cost savings pro- gramme implemented in the Group. The sales margin will also improve as a result of enhanced production and purchasing efficiency. In Interior Stones, the 3.0 per cent increase in net sales is based new partners agreements and the price increases made 2023. For Fireplaces and Interior Stones the average figures for the 2024–2028 forecast period have been used for the terminal year.

The key assumptions used in determining value in use were as follows: 1. Sales margin: Operating result of Kermansavi fireplaces is assumed to slightly improve resulting from the renewed product collection and efficiency measures under the performance improvement programme being carried out. Operating result of Interior Stone unit is assumed to improve resulting from the optimization of operations through restructuring. 2. Discount rate: Determined as the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) where the cost of capital is the weighted average cost of equity and liability components inclu- ding the adjustment for risk.

The discount rate and growth rate	Interior stone		Fireplaces
	2023	2022	2023	2022
Discount rate	13,0	15,9	13,0	15,9
Growth rate (average for the forecast period)	3,0	3,0	3,0	3,0
The cash amount recoverable with the assumptions made less book value is presented in the following table. 2023
Interior stone			449	1 476
Fireplaces			13 074	13 148

Effects of potential changes in the variables on other factors have not been taken into account in the sensitivity analysis. The change in result has been tested on the operating profit level.

1. Effect on impairment if the discount rate rises by 1 per cent or if profit is 20 per cent lower than the target.		Effect of changes in profit, in thousands of euro

Fireplaces	-	-	-	-

In Fireplaces an interest rate increase of 12.8 (12.3) percentage points and in Interior Stones an increase of 5.3 (19.0) percentage points would result in an impairment loss. A decline of 4.7 (5.6) percentage points in Fireplaces and 1.6 (4.8) percentage points in Interior Stones in the operating margin would result in an impairment loss.

16.4. Mineral resource exploration and evaluation assets

Mineral resource exploration and evaluation assets belong to the Fireplaces business segment. The carrying amount of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is EUR 2(4) thousand. Impairment tests are performed always when theclassification of assets in question changes and if there is an indication of impairment. Change in classification is dealt with more thoroughly in the accounting principles, section Mineral resource exploration and evaluation assets

The Group has recognized deferred tax assets for the part of deductible temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for some unused tax losses as well as depreciation and amortization charges not yet deducted in taxation to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deferred tax assets can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets are recorded to the extent that it is probable that taxable income will be generated in the future against which the unused tax losses can be utilized. In 2023 and 2022, Tulikivi produced an accounting profit and taxable income in Finland, and the financial result clearly improved compared to previous periods. According to the assessment made by Tulikivi's management at 31 Deceber 2023, it is likely that Tulikivi will be able to utilize the unused losses in taxation. In the 2023 taxation, Tulikivi utilized the confirmed losses incurred in previous years, for which no deferred tax assets had been recognized. The utilized amount of tax was 0.8 million euros. In addition, Tulikivi booked EUR 0.5 (0.8) million of deferred tax assets from confirmed losses based on the parent company's predicted taxable profit in 2023.

The Group has EUR 5 542 (9 611) thousand tax losses carried forward.

27. Financial risk management

The Group's activities expose it to various financial risks. The objective of the Group's financial risk management is to minimisize the unfavourable effects of the changes in the finance market to its profit for the period. The main financial risks to which the Group is exposed are foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group finance has been centralised in parent company, and the financing of the subsidiaries is mainly taken care of by internal loans. The liquidity of the Group companies is centralised by consolidated accounts. The finance department is responsible for investing the liquidity surplus and for financial risk management in accordance with the policies approved by the Board of Directors.

27.1. Foreign exchange risk:

The group's currency risks arise from commercial transactions, monetary items on the balance sheet, and net investments in foreign subsidiaries. The most significant curren- cies in terms of the group's currency risk are the United States dollar (USD) and the Russian ruble (RUB). In consolidating the group's subsidiaries, the official European Central Bank (ECB) exchange rate for the United States dollar (USD) and the exchange rates reported by Kauppalehti for the Russian ruble (RUB) have been used. Over 90 per cent of the Group's cash flows are denominated in euro, thus, the Group's exposure to foreign currency risk is not significant. Foreign currency risk can be hedged with forward con- tracts. The Group did not have any open forward contracts at the year-end 2023. The group does not apply hedge accounting as defined in IFRS 9 on forward contracts.

The functional currency of the parent company is Euro. Foreign currency assets and liabilities translated to euro using the balance sheet rate are as follows:

	2023		2022
Nominal values, EUR 1 000	USD	RUB	USD	RUB
Non-current assets	0	61	0	105
Current assets	241	514	399	1073
Non-current liabilities	0	19	0	8
Current liabilities	74	672	111	1178
Position	167	-116	288	-8
Net position	167	-116	288	-8

The equity-related foreign currency translation position, which mainly pertains to the foreign subsidiaries, was minor at the balance sheet date 2023 and 2022. The Group does not hedge the foreign equity exposure.

The table below analyses the effect of strengthening or weakening of Euro against the currencies below assuming that all other variables remain constant. The sensitivity analysis is based on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date. The sensitivity analysis takes into account the effect of the foreign currency forwards.

	Income	Share capital	Income	Share capital
+/- 10 per cent change in EUR/USD exchange rate, before income taxes	+/-15	+/-0	+/-27	+/-0
+/- 10 per cent change in EUR/RUB exchange rate, before income taxes	+/-0	+/-0	+/-0	+/-0

27.2. Interest rate risk

The Group's short-term money market investments expose Tulikivi to interest rate risk but their effect as a whole is not material. The Group's result and cash flows from operating activities are mainly independent from changes in interest rates.

The Group is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk, which largely relates to the loan portfolio. The Group can borrow funds with fixed or floating rates and use interest rate swaps in order to hedge against risks arising from fluctuation of interest rates. The share of the loans with floating rates amounted to EUR 0 (1.8) million representing 0 per cent (15.3 per cent) for the interest-bearing liabilities at the year end.

27.3.Credit risk

The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk since it has a large clientele and receivables of single costumer or a group of customers is not material for the Group. The aggregate amount of the credit losses and the impairment losses on trade receivables recognised in the income statement during the financial year totalled EUR72 (292) thousand. Credit risk related to commercial activities has been reduced by customer credit insurances. These covered 17.0 (10.0) per cent of the outstanding accounts at ba- lance sheet date. Business units are responsible for credit risk related to trade receivables. The aging analysis of trade receivables is presented in note 20.2. The group's ma- ximum credit risk exposure for trade receivables is their carrying amount at the year-end less any compensation received from customer credit insurances.

Financial instruments involve a risk of the counterparty not being able to meet its obligations. Liquid assets are invested in objects with good credit rating. Derivative contracts are en- tered only with banks with good credit rating.

The maximum credit risk related to group's other financial assets than trade receivables equals their carrying amounts at the balance sheet date.

27.4. Liquidity risk

The group strives to continuously asses and monitor the amount of capital needed for business operations in order to ensure that the group has adequate liquid funds for fi- nancing its operations and repayment for loans due. The Group aims at ensuring the availability and flexibility of financing is ensured, in addition to liquid funds, by using credit limits and different financial institutions for raising funds.

On 22 December 2022, Tulikivi agreed with Nordea Bank Plc to restructure its financing. This facility replaced and refinanced the company's existing loans and provided for future growth-supporting investments and working capital needs. The financing agreement includes a repayment programme for 2022–2028 and loan covenants to the fi- nance provider. In December 2023, Tulikivi received consent from the financier to exceed the maximum amount of investments in the agreement during the financial year. Taking into account the consent, the company is in compliance with the covenants of the financing agreement according to the situation on 31 December 2023. The company's management estimates that the company will fulfil the financial covenants during the next 12 months.

The following table summarises the maturity profile of the group. The undiscounted amounts include interests and capital repayments.

27.5. Capital management

The objective of the Group's capital management is through an optimal capital structure to support the business operations by ensuring the normal operating conditions and increase shareholder value by striving at the best possible return. The capital structure is effected i.a. through dividend distribution and share issues. The Group may vary and adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders or the amount of capital returned to them, or the number of new shares to be issued, or decide to sell assets to reduce liabilities. The equity shown in the consolidated balance sheet is managed as capital.

The group calculates equity ratio using the following formula (thousand euros)

100 x Equity / (Balance sheet total - Advances received)	2023	2022
Equity	18 072	14 450

The levels in a fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1: fair values are based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: fair values are based on inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1. However, the fair values are based on information that is observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). The fair value of these instruments is measured on the basis of generally accepted valuation techniques which primarily use inputs based on observable market data.

Level 3: fair values are not based on observable market data (non-observable inputs) but to large extent on management estimates and application of those in generally accepted valuation models. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the financial year ended and the comparative financial year.

During the financial year ended and the previous financial year, there were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy.

32. Other contingent liabilities

Environmental obligations Tulikivi group has landscaping obligations based on the Mining Act and other environmental legislation, which must be met during operations and when the quarries are shut down in the future.

Actions demanded by the environmental obligations are continuously performed besides normal production processes. Handling of water, arrangements for soil and rock ma- terial stacking areas, vibration and noise measurement, dust prevention and the monitoring the measurement result belong to these tasks. The costs relating to these activities are mainly recognised in the income statement as expense. Transport of soil material to stacking areas by opening new quarries is capitalised to other long-term expenses and depreciated during the useful life of the quarry. Lining work of stacking areas is based on long-term quarrying plans, according to which surface material of new opened quar- ries will be used in lining work. However, the lining work cannot be done until the point when there are finished sectors in the stacking area. The landscaping is not estimated to increase the costs of normal quarrying work.

After a factory or a quarry is shut down, the final lining work of the stacking areas, water arrangements, establishing of check points, bringing to safety condition and planting and seeding the vegetation will take place. For that part of these costs which are estimable, a provision is recognised.

Based on the environmental authorisations, the Group has given quarantees to the effect of EUR 516 thousand in total. For other environmental obligations.

Anything that may prevent or hinder the Group from achieving its objectives is designated as a risk. Risks may be threats, uncertainties or lost opportunities related to current or future operations. The Group's risks comprise strategic and operational risks, financial risks, and damage, casualty and loss risks. In the assessment of risks, their probability and impact are taken into account.

Strategic Risks

Strategic risks are related to the nature of business operations and concern, but are not limited to, the changes in the Group's business environment, financial markets, market situation and market position as well as consumer habits and demand factors, allocation of resources, raw material reserves, changes in legislation and regulations, business operations as a whole, reputation of the company, brands and the raw materials, and large investments.

Unfavourable changes in operating environment, market situation and market position

An abrupt fall in consumer confidence may result in a quick, unexpected fall in demand. Economic recession and the related consumer uncertainty play a role in decreasing housing construction and renovations, and this reduces demand for products and therefore profitability. Recession may also affect consumers' choices by making price the dominant factor instead of product features.

A changing competitive environment and substitute products entering the market and changes in consumer habits may adversely affect the demand for the Group's products. Operations in several

market areas, active monitoring of industry development and flexibility of capacity and cost structure even out the sales risks arising from economic fluctuation. The downturn may also have a negative impact on customers' solvency and subcontractors' operations. Keeping the product cost structure competitive is a prerequisite for maintaining demand and growth.

In Tulikivi's market areas, the types of fireplace cultures range from areas which use conventional heat-retaining fireplaces to countries where there is a strong tradition of room heaters. As markets become more uniform, fireplace cultures will change in the target countries. These changes in consumer habits may affect the demand for certain products or production materials and thereby have an impact on profitability. Tulikivi focuses on understanding the needs of customers and meets these needs by, for instance, continuously developing products for new customer segments. Following trends and changes in standards enhances the ability to forecast customer demand. Correctly targeted communication makes it possible to reach the right customer groups. Unhealthy price competition may weaken profitability. Problems with the efficiency of distribution channels may decrease sales of products. Disturbances may arise in connection with the renewal of distribution channels, or owing to reasons relating to entrepreneurs which are part of the distribution channel, or competing products

entering the same distribution channel. The distribution network and product range are continuously developed so that the distribution of the Group's products remains profitable and interesting for the entrepreneurs.

The volume of the fireplace market is partly dependent on the coldness of the winter season, thus, an exceptionally warm winter may reduce demand for fireplaces. In addition, public authority regulation measures may affect the demand for fireplaces.

Risks related to managing soapstone raw materials

Soapstone is a natural material whose integrity, texture and yield percentage varies by quarry. The quality of the raw materials affects manufacturing costs. Tulikivi seeks to determine the quality of the materials on a quarry-specific basis by taking core samples and through test excavations before opening the quarry. Risks are also posed by potential competitors in raw materials on a global scale and soapstone deposits held by parties other than Tulikivi. We seek and explore new deposits as needed. The adequacy of the stone is increased by using the raw material as precisely as possible, improving quarrying technology and accounting for the special requirements of the stone in product development. Tulikivi Group manages the competition risks of its raw materials with continuous product development, a strong total concept and the Tulikivi brand, as well as with long-term stone reserve and excavation planning.

Changes in legislation and environmental issues

More than half of the fireplaces manufactured by Tulikivi are exported, mainly to Central Europe. Exceptional changes in the product approval process in these countries, such as in the case of particulate emission limits or restrictions on use, might affect the sales potential of Tulikivi products and restrict

their use. Other legislative risks are the tightening of the requirements of environmental permits for quarrying and the lengthening of permit processes. Environmental legislation and regulations may cause the company to incur costs that will affect sales margins and the earnings trend.

Tulikivi keeps abreast of the development and preparation of regulations and exercises an influence on them both directly and through regional fireplace associations. The combustion technology of the products is constantly developed and product development takes a long-term approach to ensuring that Tulikivi products measure up to local regulations. We secure product approval for our products in all our business countries. The Group's products have long life cycles and carbon emissions of fireplace production are extremely low.

Business portfolio

The management of Tulikivi's business operations accounts for development opportunities, new products and customer groups and new technological solutions. New business opportunities, new markets and new product groups involve risks that may affect not only profitability, but also the Tulikivi brand. Strong fluctuations in exchange rates may hinder the achievement of market-specific gross margin targets.

Business Risks

Business risks are related to products, distribution channels, personnel, operations and processes.

Product liability risks

Tulikivi Group reduces potential product liability

risks by developing the products for optimal user safety. We ensure that the product and service chain spanning from Tulikivi to the customer functions smoothly and proficiently by providing training for retailers and installers and by ensuring that the terms and conditions of sale are precise. We also seek to protect ourselves against product liability risks by taking out product and business liability insurance policies.

Operational and process risks

Operational risks are related to the consequences of human activities, failures in internal company processes or external events. The operational risks of factory operations are minimised by means such as compliance with the company's operating manual, by developing occupational safety consistently and with systematic development efforts. The manufacturing and introduction of new products involve risks. Careful planning and training of personnel are used as protection against these risks.

Dependence on key suppliers may increase the Group's material costs, the cost of machinery and spare parts, or have a significant impact on production. Failures in the distribution network can affect the Group's ability to deliver products in a timely manner to its customers. Energy procurements from external suppliers might influence the Group's energy costs or energy supply. On the other hand, the high price of energy supports demand for products. Changes in distribution channels and logistics systems might also disturb operations. Contractual risks come under operational risks.

The Group's business relies on functional and reliable information systems. The utilisation of the ERP system involves risks if new practices are not adopted in business processes or the potential provided by the new system utilised promptly. The Group aims to manage the risks related to data applicability by setting up backups for critical information systems and telecom connections, selecting cooperation partners carefully and by standardising the workstation configurations and software used in the Group and its information

security practices. The company has also conducted analyses of the current state of personal data processing and data security practices and taken measures to develop them to ensure that they comply with the EU's General Data Protection Regulation or GDPR.

In line with the nature of the Group's business, trade receivables and inventories are major balance sheet items. The credit loss risk of trade receivables is managed by means of a consistent credit granting policy, insuring receivables and

effective collection operations.

The Group's core expertise involves its core business processes, including sales, installation, product development, quarrying, manufacture, procurement and logistics, as well as the necessary support functions, which include information administration, finance, HR and communications. An unforeseen drain in the core expertise or decrease in the personnel's development ability or disadvantageous development in the population structure in current operation locations would pose risks. Core competence conservation and availability are secured by planning the need for personnel and knowledge and encouraging the commitment of personnel to constant change and growth. The Group continuously seeks to increase the core expertise and other significant competence of its personnel by offering opportunities for on-the-job learning and training and to complete the expertise needed for strategy implementation in those areas where it has not existed before. Sufficient core competencies can be partly secured through networking. The turnover of key personnel has been moderate. Boosting operational efficiency, controlled change and effective internal communications serve as means of managing operational and process risks.

Financial Risks

The Group's business exposes it to various financial risks. The objective of the Group's financial risk management is to minimise the unfavourable effects of the changes in the finance market on its profit for the period. The main financial risks are liquidity risk, capital management risk, interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. Financial risks and their management are presented in greater detail in Note 27 to the consolidated financial statements.

A potential recession in the euro area could weaken demand for the company's products, profitability and equity. The company's balance sheet assets include goodwill, the value of which is based on the management's estimates. If these estimates fail to materialise, it is possible that impairment losses would have to be recognised in connection with the impairment testing processes. On 22 December 2022, Tulikivi agreed with

Nordea Bank Plc to restructure its financing. This facility replaced and refinanced the company's existing loans and provided for future growth-supporting investments and working capital needs. The financing agreement includes a repayment programme for 2022–2028 and loan covenants to the finance provider. The company is in compliance with the covenants of the financing agreement according to the situation on 31 December 2023. The company's management estimates that the company will fulfil the financial covenants during the next 12 months.

Damage, Casualty and Loss Risks

Most of the Group's production is capital-intensive and a large share of the Group's capital is committed to its production plants. A fire or serious machinery breakdown, for instance, could therefore cause major damage to assets or loss of profits as well as other indirect adverse impacts on the Group's operations. The Group seeks to protect itself against such risks by evaluating its production plants and processes from the perspective of risk management. Damage, casualty and loss risks also include occupational health and protection risks, environmental risks and accident risks. The Group regularly reviews its insurance coverage as part of overall risk management. Insurance policies are taken out to cover all the risks that are worth insuring against for business or other reasons. There are no pending legal proceedings and the Board of Directors is not aware of any other legal risks involved in the company's operations that would have a significant effect on its result or operations.

Accounting Policy

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Finnish accounting law.

Valuation of Fixed Assets

Fixed assets have been disclosed in the balance sheet at acquisition cost net of received investment grants and depreciation according to plan. Depreciation according to plan have been calculated on straight-line method based on the economic life time of the assets as follows:

	Depreciation period
Intangible rights and other long-term expenditure	5 years
ERP-system	10 years
Quarring areas and basins	unit of production method
Goodwill	13 years
Buildings	25 to 30 years
Constructions	5 years
Process machinery	3 to 15 years
Motor vehicles	5 to 8 years
IT equipment	3 to 10 years
Development expenditure	3 to 10 years

Quarrying areas, including the opening costs of quarries, basins and quarry land areas are depreciated using the unit of production method based on the amount of rock used and filling time of damping areas. Depreciation of quarry lands and basins and other auxiliary structures is commenced when the quarry is ready for production use.

Valuation of Inventories

Inventories have been presented in accordance with the average cost principle or the net realisable value, whichever is lower. The cost value of inventories includes direct costs and their proportion of indirect manufacturing and acquisition costs.

Revenue Recognition

Net sales represents sales after the deduction of discounts, indirect taxes and exchange gains/losses on trade receivables. Revenue has been recognized at the time of the delivery of the goods. Revenue from installing and services is recognised in the period when the service is rendered.

Research and Development Cost

Research cost has been recorded as annual costs when incurred. Development costs related to Sauna products, the renewed ERP system and the commercialization of the new ceramic fireplace collection have been capitalised. Costs incurred from drilling exploration in quarry areas have been capitalised for their main part and they are depreciated over their useful li- ves. However, drilling exploration costs are expensed when there is significant uncertainty involved in the commercial utilization of the soapstone reserves in question. Development costs related to sauna-product group, the renewal of enterprise resource planning system, the productisation of new ceramic collection and the design of new soapstone interiors ha- ve been activated.

Retirement Costs

Employee pension schemes have been arranged with external pension insurance companies. Pension costs are expensed for the year when incurred. Pension schemes for personnel outside Finland follow the local practices.

Untaxed Reserves

According to the Finnish corporate tax law untaxed reserves, such as accelerated depreciation, are tax deductible only if recorded in financial statements.

Income Taxes

Income taxes include taxes corresponding to the Group companies' results for the financial period as well as the change in deferred tax asset.

Dividends

The proposed dividend from the Government to the General Meeting of Shareholders has not been recorded in the financial statements; instead, dividends will be accounted for only upon the decision of the General Meeting of Shareholders.

Share-based payments and option rights

The Group had no share-based incentive plans in 2023 or 2022.

Comparability of the result

Disclosures in the reporting period and the corresponding figures for the previous period are comparable over time.

Foreign Currency Items

Foreign currency balance sheet items have been valued at the average exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date as indicated by the European Central Bank.

Environmental obligations

Tulikivi Corporation's environmental obligations, their management and recognition of environmental costs

Tulikivi group has landscaping obligations based on the Mining Act and other envi- ronmental legislation, which must be met during operations and when the quarries are shut down in the future.

Actions demanded by the environmental obligations are continuously performed besides normal production processes. Handling of water, arrangements for soil and rock material stacking areas, vibration and noise measurement, dust prevention and the monitoring the measurement result belong to these tasks. The costs relating to these activities are mainly recognised in the income statement as expense. Transport of soil material to stacking areas by opening new quarries is capitalised to other long-term expenses and depreciated during the useful life of the quarry. Lining work of stacking areas is based on long-term quarrying plans, according to which surface material of new opened quarries will be used in lining work. However, the lining work cannot be done until the point when there are finished sectors in the stacking area. No provision is recognised for the lining work, because it is not estimated to increase the costs of normal quarrying work.

Based on the environmental authorisations, the Company has given guarantees to the effect of EUR 516 thousand in total.

Auditors' Report

To the Annual General Meeting of Tulikivi Corporation

We have audited the financial statements of Tulikivi Oyj (business identity code 0350080-1) for the year ended

31 December 2023. The financial statements comprise the consolidated balance sheet, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity, statement of cash flows and notes, including material accounting policy information, as well as the parent company's balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows and notes.

In our opinion

• the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the group's financial position, 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 financial statements in Finland and comply with statutory requirements.

Our opinion is consistent with the additional report submitted to the Audit Committee and Board of Directors.

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 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.

In our best knowledge and understanding, the nonaudit services that we have provided to the parent company and group companies are in compliance with laws and regulations applicable in Finland regarding these services, and we have not provided any prohibited non-audit services referred to in Article 5(1) of regulation (EU) 537/2014. The nonaudit services that we have provided have been disclosed in note 7.2 to the consolidated financial statements.

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

Materiality

The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. The materiality is determined based on our professional judgement and is used to determine the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of identified misstatements on the financial statements as a whole. The level of materiality we set is based on our assessment of the magnitude of misstatements that, individually or in aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have influence on the economic decisions of the users of the financial statements. We have also taken into account misstatements and/or possible misstatements that in our opinion are material for qualitative reasons for the users of the financial statements.

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. The significant risks of material misstatement referred to in the EU Regulation No 537/2014 point (c) of Article 10(2) are included in the description of key audit matters below.

We have also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls. This includes consideration of whether there was evidence of management bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

THE KEY AUDIT MATTER

HOW THE MATTER WAS ADDRESSED IN THE AUDIT

Revenue recognition (Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements)

The consolidated sales comprise sales of products as well as installation and freight services.

The Group's revenues for the financial year 2023 totalled to EUR 45.3 million.

The Group uses different delivery terms, which determine when control of the product sold passes to the customer. Revenue is recognised when the customer is deemed to obtain control of the goods or services at a point in time.

Due to the large number of sales transactions and the risk of incorrect timing for recognition of revenue, revenue recognition is considered a key audit matter.

We obtained an understanding of the revenue recognition bases and policies as well as assessed the revenue recognition principles applied by reference to the applicable IFRS standards.

As part of our audit, we tested related key controls and performed substantive audit procedures. We inspected revenue transactions by comparing them to the invoices, order and delivery documents as well as payments received, on a sample basis. We tested revenue recognised in the period, with attention to whether the revenue was recognised in the correct period. This involved selecting a sample of invoices and agreeing them to supporting delivery documentation and inspecting credit invoices issued post period end in early 2024.

In addition, we considered the appropriateness of the disclosures provided in respect of sales.

Valuation of goodwill and trademark (Notes 1, 15 and 16 to the consolidated financial statements)

The carrying amounts of goodwill and trademark totalled to EUR 5.1 million in the consolidated financial statements representing 28 % of the consolidated equity.

Tangible and intangible assets are allocated to cash-generating units and tested for impairment at least annually. Preparation of cash flow projections used as the basis for the impairment tests requires management judgments and assumptions for profitability, long-term growth rate and discount rate. Valuation of goodwill and trademark is considered a key audit matter due to the significance of the carrying amounts and high level of management judgement involved both in the projections used in impairment testing and in the determination of useful life.

We evaluated and challenged the key assumptions used in the calculations by reference to the budgets approved by the Board of Directors of the parent company, data external to the group and our own views. We assessed the historical accuracy of forecasts prepared by management by comparing the actual results for the year with the original forecasts. Furthermore, we evaluated the valuation and useful life of the trademark.

We assessed the technical accuracy of the calculations and comparing the assumptions used to market and industry information.

In addition, we assessed the appropriateness of the Group's disclosures in respect of goodwill, trademark and impairment testing.

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 IFRS Accounting Standards 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 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 the 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 disclosures 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 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.

Other Reporting Requirements Information on our audit engagement

We were first appointed as auditors by the Annual General Meeting on 13 April 2007, and our appointment represents a total period of uninterrupted engagement of 17 years.

Other Information

The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the report of the Board of Directors and the information included in the Annual Report but does not include the financial statements or our auditor's report thereon. We have obtained the report of the Board of Directors prior to the date of this auditor's report, and the Annual Report is expected to be made available to us after that date. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. With respect to the report of the Board of Directors, our responsibility also includes considering whether the report of the Board of Directors has been prepared in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.

In our opinion, the information in the report of the Board of Directors is consistent with the information in the financial statements and the report of the Board of Directors has been prepared in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.

If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor's report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
