Infra Oy is consolidated in Uponor Corporation as a separate segment.
Uponor has compiled the attached historic performance data for businesses that
were merged to form Uponor Infra. The data is given below for the following
entities:
- KWH Pipe Group's infrastructure business related information. This
information excludes the PEX business that was acquired by Uponor Building
Solutions - Europe in a separate transaction prior to the merger. Due to the
bimonthly reporting cycle that was used in the KWH Pipe Group, these numbers
represent the management's best estimate. - Uponor Infrastructure Solutions information represents the officially
published information for that segment. - Uponor Infra information is a sum of the above two lines.
- Uponor Group consolidated, continuing operations information shows the Uponor
Group published information where the KWH Pipe Group's infrastructure business
related figures have been included.
