Accounting principles

From Ratos Interim report Q3 2022

Ratos’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and associated interpretations (IFRIC), as endorsed by the EU. This interim report was prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and applicable provisions in the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The parent company also applies RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. Reporting and measurement principles are unchanged compared with those applied in Ratos’s 2021 Annual Report. The new and revised IFRS standards which came into force in 2022 have not had any material effect on the Ratos Group’s financial statements.

Amounts are presented in SEK million (SEKm) unless otherwise stated. Rounding may apply in tables and calculations, which means that the stipulated total amounts are not always an exact amount of the rounded amounts.

In this report, Ratos reports its previous holding in Bisnode as a discontinued operation since Ratos signed an agreement pertaining to the sale to Dun & Bradstreet in October 2020. The sale was completed in January 2021. In accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, Bisnode’s profit after tax is reported on a separate row in the income statement for 2021. The holding in Bisnode Belgium that was acquired and divested in 2021 is also reported as discontinued operations in the income statement for 2021. Neither Bisnode nor Bisnode Belgium had any impact in 2022.

As a result of Ratos’s transition from an investment company to an operating company, the reporting format has changed as of 2022. The companies will no longer be reported individually or adjusted for Ratos’s holding. Instead, they are reported as part of the Group’s Construction & Services, Consumer and Industry business segments. The change does not entail any restatement of previous financial reports, but rather is only a new format that reflects how Ratos’s management monitors operations.

Alternative performance measures*
To facilitate comparison between periods and enable follow-up of ongoing earnings and development in the company portfolio, Ratos presents some financial information, which is not defined in IFRS. Related information contains a description of these key ratios as well as a reconciliation / bridge between alternative key ratios used in Ratos's financial reports and the closest IFRS measures.

*) Reconciliation of alternative performance measures can be found in respectively period's interim report.
