KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 2
Board of Directors’ Review 2022
In 2022, Kemira Group’s revenue increased by 33% to a record-high: EUR 3,569.6 million
(2,674.4). Revenue in local currencies, excluding acquisitions and divestments, increased by
27% due to higher sales prices, particularly in energy-intensive pulp and bleaching chemicals,
including caustic soda.
Operative EBITDA increased by 34% to a record-high: EUR 571.6 million (425.5) following
improvement in both segments. The operative EBITDA margin increased to 16.0% (15.9%)
following actions to mitigate impacts from strong inflation. EBITDA increased by 50% to EUR
558.8 million (373.2). The differences between operative and reported figures are explained by
items affecting comparability, which were mainly related to an expected loss from the
divestment of most of our colorants business, Kemira's exit from Russia and a manufacturing
unit sale to a customer. O perative EBIT increased by 60% to EUR 361.6 million (225.4). EBIT
increased by 104% to EUR 347.6 million (170.1).
Cash flow from operating activities was EUR 400.3 million (220.2).
EPS, diluted increased by 114% to EUR 1.50 (0.70).
The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting 2023 a cash dividend of EUR
0.62 per share (0.58), totaling EUR 95 million (89). It is proposed that the dividend be paid in
two installments.

Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons in this report are made to the corresponding period in 2021.
Kemira provides certain financial performance measures (alternative performance measures) that are not
defined by IFRS. Kemira believes that alternative performance measures followed by capital markets and
Kemira management, such as revenue growth in local currencies, excluding acquisitions and divestments
(=organic growth), EBITDA, operative EBITDA, operative EBIT, cash flow after investing activities, and
gearing, provide useful information about Kemira’s comparable business performance and financial
position. Selected alternative performance measures are also used as performance criteria in
remuneration.
Kemira’s alternative performance measures should not be viewed in isolation from the equivalent IFRS
measures, and alternative performance measures should be read in conjunction with the most directly
comparable IFRS measures. Definitions of the alternative performance measures can be found in the
definitions of the key figures in this report, as well as at www.kemira.com > Investors > Financial
information. All the figures in this report have been individually rounded, and consequently the sum of the
individual figures may deviate slightly from the total figure presented.
In addition to the above key figures and ratios, other key figures which are describing t he Group's financial
performance are presented in the Other financial information section under Group key figur es.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REVIEW

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 3
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE IN 2022
Revenue increased by 33%. Revenue in local currencies, excluding acquisitions and
divestments, increased by 27% This was due to higher sales prices in both segments and
across geographic regions, particularly in energy-intensive pulp and bleaching chemicals.
Sales volumes decreased following a decline in sales volumes in Pulp & Paper. In Industry &
Water, sales volumes increased.

Revenue | 2022 | 2021 | ∆% | Organic growth*, % | Currency impact, % | Acq. & div. impact, %
EUR, million | EUR, million
Pulp & Paper | 2,027.7 | 1,559.6 | +30 | +24 | +6 | 0
Industry & Water | 1,541.9 | 1,114.8 | +38 | +31 | +8 | 0
Total | 3,569.6 | 2,674.4 | +33 | +27 | +7 | 0

*Revenue growth in local currencies, excluding acquisitions and divestments
Geographically, the revenue split was as follows: EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) 51%
(51%), the Americas 40% (38%), and Asia Pacific 9% (11%).
Operative EBITDA increased by 34% to EUR 571.6 million (425.5). Operative EBITDA
improved in both segments, particularly in Pulp & Paper driven by higher market prices for
energy-intensive pulp and bleaching chemicals, including caustic soda. The operative EBITDA
margin improved to 16.0%.

Sales volumes | -48.9
Sales prices | +851.1

Total | 571.6 | 425.5 | +34 | 16.0 | 15.9

EBITDA increased by 50% to EUR 558.8 million (373.2). The difference between it and
operative EBITDA is explained by items affecting comparability. Items affecting comparability
were mainly related to an expected loss from the divestment of most of our colorants
business, environmental provisions, Kemira's exit from Russia, and a manufacturing unit sale
to a customer. Items affecting comparability in the comparison period mainly consisted of a
provision caused by the expected underutilization of a single-asset energy company in Pori,
Finland majority owned by Kemira via Pohjolan Voima, a damage claim settlement with CDC,
provisions related to site closures, and restructuring.

Items affecting comparability, EUR million | 2022 | 2021
Within EBITDA | -12.8 | -52.4
Pulp & Paper | -11.4 | -46.5
Industry & Water | -1.4 | -5.9

Pulp & Paper | -1.2 | -0.1
Industry & Water | 0.0 | -2.9
Total items affecting comparability in EBIT | -14.0 | -55.4

Depreciation, amortization, and impairments increased to EUR 211.2 million (203.1), including
the EUR 9.4 million (12.1) amortization of purchase price allocation.
Operative EBIT increased by 60% compared to the previous year. EBIT increased by 104%,
and the difference between the two is explained by items affecting comparability, which were
mainly related to an divestment of most of our colorants business, environmental provisions,
Kemira's exit from Russia, and a manufacturing unit sale to a customer. Items affecting
comparability in the comparison period are described above in the EBITDA section.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REVIEW

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 4
Net finance costs totaled EUR -39.4 million (-26.7). The comparison period included a gain
of EUR 5.6 million arising from bond liability management. Income taxes were EUR -68.5
million (-28.2), with the reported tax rate being 22% (20%). Net profit for the period increased
by 108% mainly due to higher EBIT.
FINANCIAL POSITION AND CASH FLOW
Cash flow from operating activities in January-December 2022 increased to EUR 400.3 million
(220.2) mainly due to higher net profit for the period. Net working capital increased compared
to the previous year due to higher inventories and receivables following higher raw material
prices and strong revenue growth. However, during Q4 2022, net working capital decreased
significantly. During Q1 2022, Kemira's supplementary pension fund in Finland, Neliapila,
returned excess capital totaling EUR 10 million to Kemira. Cash flow after investing activities
was EUR 222.3 million (57.3).
At the end of the period, interest-bearing liabilities totaled EUR 1,021.8 million (992.2),
including lease liabilities of EUR 148.9 million (136.8). The average interest rate of the Group’s
interest-bearing loan portfolio (excluding leases) was 2.4% (1.7%), and the duration was 22
months (29). Fixed-rate loans accounted for 83% (80%) of net interest-bearing liabilities,
including lease liabilities.
Short-term liabilities maturing in the next 12 months amounted to EUR 183.7 million. On
December 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents totaled EUR 250.6 million (142.4). The Group
has a EUR 400 million undrawn committed credit facility maturing in 2026. During the last
quarter, Kemira signed bilateral loan agreements of EUR 180 million replacing bilateral loan
agreements of EUR 150 million that would have otherwise matured in 2023. New loan
agreements mature in 2025 and 2027.
At the end of the period, Kemira Group’s net debt was EUR 771.2 million (849.8), including
lease liabilities. The equity ratio was 46% (43%), while gearing was 46% (63%).
The value of Kemira's shares in Pohjolan Voima and Teollisuuden Voima were increased by
EUR 123 million during 2022 mainly due to higher electricity prices. The value of electricity
derivatives increased by EUR 47 million during 2022.
Kemira is exposed to transaction and translation currency risks. The Group's most significant
transaction currency risks arise from the Chinese renminbi, the Canadian dollar, the US dollar
and the Swedish krona. At the end of the year, the Chinese renmimbi denominated exchange
rate risk against the euro had an equivalent value of approximately EUR 86 million, of which
68% was hedged on an average basis. The Canadian dollar's denominated exchange rate risk
against the euro had an equivalent value of approximately EUR 56 million, of which 52% was
hedged on an average basis. The US dollar denominated exchange change risk against EUR
was approximately EUR 54 million, of which 68% was hedged on an average basis. The
Swedish krona denominated exchange rate risk against EUR had an equivalent value of
approximately EUR 36 million, of which 64% was hedged on an average basis. In addition,
Kemira is exposed to smaller transaction risks against EUR mainly in relation to the Korean
won, Polish zloty, Norwegian krona, and the Danish krona; and against the US dollar mainly in
relation to the Canadian dollar and the Brazilian real with the annual exposure in those
currencies being approximately EUR 131 million.
As Kemira’s consolidated financial statements are compiled in euros, Kemira is also subject to
a currency translation risk to the extent to which the income statement and balance sheet
items of subsidiaries located outside the euro area are reported in a currency other than the
euro. The most significant translation exposures derive from the US dollar and the Canadian
dollar. The strengthening of currencies against the euro would increase Kemira’s revenue and
EBITDA through a translation effect.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURE
In January-December 2022, capital expenditure excluding acquisitions increased by 17% to
EUR 197.9 million (168.8). Capital expenditure (capex) can be broken down as follows:
expansion capex 22% (15%), improvement capex 29% (29%), and maintenance capex 49%
(55%).
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
In January-December 2022, total research and development expenses were EUR 33.4 million
(28.3), representing 0.9% (1.1%) of the Group’s revenue.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REVIEW

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 5
Kemira’s research and development is an enabler of growth and further differentiation. New
product launches contribute to the efficiency and sustainability of customer processes as
well as improved profitability. Both Kemira’s future market position and profitability depend
on the company’s ability to understand and meet current and future customer needs and
market trends, as well as on its ability to innovate differentiated products and applications.
At the end of 2022, Kemira had 401 (382) patent families, including 2,101 (1,972) granted
patents, and 1,026 (996) pending applications. During 2022, Kemira applied for 34 (36) new
patents and started 14 new product development projects, 86% of them aiming to improve
customers' resource efficiency. At the same time, Kemira started commercialization of nine
new product development projects all contributing to improve resource efficiency in customer
processes.
HUMAN RESOURCES
At the end of the period, Kemira Group had 4,902 employees (4,926). Kemira had 756 (766)
employees in Finland, 1,690 (1,750) employees elsewhere in EMEA, 1,525 (1,487) in the
Americas, and 931 (923) in APAC..

ISO 14001:2015 for Environment, and ISO 45001:2018 for Occupational Health and Safety.
Kemira also regularly reviews its stakeholders expectations and concerns regarding
sustainability. The latest materiality analysis was conducted in 2021. The results and process
are described in more detail on pages 7-9 of Kemira's sustainability report.
MANAGEMENT OF CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability is a key element of Kemira’s strategy. Work on sustainability is led by Director
Sustainability, who reports to EVP, Operational Excellence and Sustainability. The
sustainability work is governed by a Sustainability Steering Team, which develops Kemira’s
ambition level in sustainability and steers the work of sustainability programs. The team has a
range of participants from strategy to business and manufacturing representatives, including
Management Board members. The Board of Directors oversees the implementation of
strategy as well as reviews risks, including environmental and social matters. In 2022, the
Board of Directors decided to include sustainability-related targets, reduction of Scope 1 and
Scope 2 emissions and development of Kemira’s biobased revenue, as key performance
indicators in the new performance period 2023-2025 of Kemira’s long-term incentive plan.
MATERIAL TOPICS
More information on sustainability at Kemira and the outcome of Kemira’s sustainability
targets in 2022 can be found on page 13.
Environmental and climate-related matters
Kemira's latest materiality assessment was conducted in 2021. Based on the analysis, Kemira
has identified topics related to climate, circularity, water and safety as its environmental
sustainability focus areas.
In climate, we continuously strive to reduce our environmental impact. In 2022, Kemira
committed to the Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) and simultaneously updated its
climate target. Kemira is committed to reducing its combined Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions
by 50% by 2030, from a 2018 baseline of 930 000 tons CO2e. This target is in line with limiting
global warming to 1.5°C, which is currently the most ambitious criteria for setting climate
change mitigation targets. Kemira’s long-term ambition is to be carbon neutral by 2045 for
combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions. As part of its SBTi commitment, Kemira also committed to
developing a quantified near-term Scope 3 target within the timeframe set by the Science
Based Target initiative framework. Kemira will submit these updated targets to be validated
by the SBTi when they are finalized, in early 2024 at the latest. Kemira is working actively with
its suppliers to find ways to reduce Scope 3 emissions.
In water, we work to mitigate water-related risks and grasp water-related opportunities.
Kemira operates in businesses that use a lot of water and water is a common denominator for
Kemira’s both segments. Water is a key strategic theme for Kemira as Kemira wants to grow in
water treatment in the coming years. In terms of Kemira’s operations, Kemira aims to
continuously improve its freshwater use intensity in its operations. Our sustainability target as
of 2022 is to reach Leadership level in CDP Water Security rating by the end of 2025. In terms
of circularity, we aim to reduce waste and increase the use of renewable raw materials. Our
sustainability target is to reduce disposed production waste intensity by 15% by 2030 from
2019 baseline level. In 2020, we introduced a new group-level KPI to increase our revenue from
biobased products and solutions from EUR 100 million to 500 EUR million by 2030. In
conjunction with revenue target, Kemira is working to increase the share of renewable ja
recycled raw materials of its used raw materials. This will allow Kemira to reduce pressure on
natural resources, and support our customers in moving away from fossil-based raw
materials.
Social and employment-related matters
Kemira has identified people and safety as its social sustainability focus areas. Ensuring
workplace safety is a key priority in all our operations. High people, process, and
environmental safety performance is fundamental to our business and to our customers. Our
target in safety is to improve TRIF (total recordable injury frequency per million working hours
for Kemira’s employees and contractors) to 1.5 by 2025 and to 1.1 by 2030. Also fostering a
strong company culture and commitment of our employees are important success factors for
our business. In people, our target is to reach the top 10% cross-industry norm for Diversity &
Inclusion by 2025.
Respect for human rights
Our Code of Conduct is the foundation for how we conduct business at Kemira. In our code we
state that we are committed to the principles of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
and the core conventions of the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the United
Nations’ Global Compact, and we expect our suppliers and business partners to share these
principles. Further we work by the United Nations Guiding Principles which require companies
to conduct due diligence to protect and respect human rights. We have a public statement for
slavery and human trafficking, where our approach to human rights issues is outlined more in

detail. Kemira’s Code of Conduct for Business Partners (CoC-BP), supported by Kemira
Sustainability and EHSQ Policy, set out principles for responsible business conduct, respect
for human rights and provision of appropriate working conditions, and environmental
responsibility. Kemira’s latest Human Rights Impact Assessment was conducted in 2021 to
identify human rights impacts throughout Kemira operations and value chain. Kemira has a
Human Rights Council that oversees and develops Kemira’s human rights related processes.
More information on Kemira’s approach to human rights is available in Kemira’s sustainability
report.
Anti-corruption and bribery
Kemira's anti-corruption principles are included in the Code of Conduct. Kemira does not
tolerate improper or corrupt payments made either directly or indirectly to a customer,
government official or third party, including facilitation payments, improper gifts,
entertainment, gratuities, favors, donations or any other improper transfer of value. We
engage only reputable sales representatives and other third parties who share the same
commitment. Code of Conduct training is mandatory for all our employees, and there are
advisory, monitoring and reporting procedures in place to ensure full compliance with the
Code. We maintain an ethics and compliance Whistleblowing line for employees to enable
them to report potential violations of the Code of Conduct or any other concerns. Mandatory
anti-bribery training is provided for selected groups of personnel who need to have a
comprehensive understanding of Kemira’s anti-corruption principles. Awareness of anti-
corruption matters is delivered through our Code of Conduct training to all employees. Kemira
has conducted an ethics and compliance risk assessment to evaluate corruption-related and
bribery-related risks in its operations. There were no confirmed incidents of corruption in
2022.

EU TAXONOMY
The European Union’s target is to reduce net greenhouse gas emissions to zero by 2050. In
order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to better engage the private sector in the
green transition, the EU has introduced the EU taxonomy, a common classification system to
define environmentally sustainable economic activities. The aim of the taxonomy is to classify
economic activities based on their contribution to six environmental objectives 1) climate
change mitigation, 2) climate change adaptation, 3) sustainable use and protection of water
and marine resources, 4) transition to a circular economy, 5) pollution prevention and control,
and 6) protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems. The EU taxonomy is still
developing and it does not include all six environmental objectives nor cover all economic
activities. The taxonomy’s first two objectives, climate change mitigation and adaptation,
cover economic activities that are the most emission-intensive and / or have the largest ability
to contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation. In 2022, companies are required to
disclose what proportion of their turnover, capital expenditure (CapEx) and operating
expenditure (OpEx) are eligible and aligned according to the EU taxonomy’s first two
environmental objectives: climate change mitigation and climate change adaptation. *
The manufacturing sector, which Kemira is considered to be part of, is largely out of scope of
the current legislation. Currently it mainly includes the manufacturing of basic materials and
chemicals such as chlorine, soda ash and hydrogen. Kemira on the other hand mostly
produces specialty chemicals and therefore its current eligibility and alignment figures are
low. The chemical sector, Kemira included, is expected to be more broadly included in
objectives 3-6.
ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
EU taxonomy requires the disclosure of three financial indicators: turnover, capital
expenditure (CapEx) and operating expenditure (OpEx). These indicators are defined by the EU
taxonomy and the definitions differ from the IFRS-definitions of C apEx and OpEx, which are
used elsewhere in Kemira’s financial reporting. Kemira has calculated the KPIs based on the
definitions by the EU taxonomy and has taken a conservative approach when interpreting the
EU Taxonomy Regulation. The EU taxonomy also requires companies to disclose how they
have avoided double counting of their economic activities. Kemira avoided double-counting by
ensuring that turnover, CapEx and OpEx were only allocated once to the taxonomy activities
and only to one environmental objective - climate change mitigation.
KEMIRA’S TAXONOMY-ELIGIBLE AND TAXONOMY-ALIGNED ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES
(PLEASE SEE TABLES ON FOLLOWING PAGES FOR A MORE DETAILED BREAKDOWN)

Key Performance Indicator | Total turnover (MEUR) | Share of taxonomy- eligible economic activities (%) | Share of taxonomy non- eligible economic activities (%) | Share of taxonomy aligned economic activities (%) | Share of taxonomy non- aligned economic activities (%)
Turnover | 3569.6 | 0 | 100 | 0 | 100
Capital expenditure (CapEx) as per definition of the EU Taxonomy | 243.5 | 0 | 100 | 0 | 100
Operating expenditure (OpEx) as per definition of the EU Taxonomy | 106.3 | 0 | 100 | 0 | 100

Turnover in EU Taxonomy equals revenue in Kemira's financial reporting. Capex as per definition of the EU taxonomy
equals Kemira's reported capital expenditure added with additions into right-of-use assets. Opex as per definition of the
EU taxonomy equals direct R&D and maintenance expenditure. Please refer to the Financial Statements note 2.1 for
more information on revenue, 3 for capital expenditure and 2.2 for operating expenditure.
Turnover. Kemira’s eligible turnover mainly consisted of industrial by-products, such as
hydrogen and wast e heat that is sold for district heating. Kemira’s waste heat turnover is
taxonomy-aligned, while hydrogen turnover is not taxonomy-aligned due to the lack of life-
cycle-assessments in a form required in the EU Taxonomy Regulation..
Capital expenditure. Kemira had no revenue-related CapEx as the taxonomy-eligible turnover
consisted of industrial by-products for which Kemira does not specifically spend CapEx. In
terms of individually sustainable CapEx**, Kemira spent EUR 1.2 million CapEx in electric
vehicles in 2022.
Operating expenditure. Kemira had no revenue-related OpEx as the taxonomy-eligible
turnover consisted of industrial by-products for which Kemira does not specifically spend
OpEx. Based on Kemira's analysis, individually sustainable OpEx** was not material in 20 22.
*Taxonomy-eligibility means that an activity is classified in the taxonomy, which is an indication that it might have a
substantial contribution to one of the six environmental objectives of the taxonomy. Taxonomy-aligned means that an
activity is environmentally sustainable, according to the EU taxonomy criteria. Economic activities are considered to be
aligned according to the EU taxonomy when they:
•Make a substantial contribution to one of the six objectives mentioned above and they comply with certain
technical screening criteria
•Do no significant harm (DNSH) to the achievement of any other objective of the EU taxonomy
•Comply with minimum safeguards for human rights, taxation, corruption and fair competition
Kemira has assessed its eligible revenue based on the above categories to determine whether the taxonomy-eligible
activities are also taxonomy-aligned activities. In 2022, Kemira performed a minimum safeguards self-assessment in
relation to the EU Taxonomy reporting in the fields on human rights, taxation, corruption and fair competition. The
conclusion from this assessment is that Kemira meets the EU Taxonomy minimum safeguards on a group level.
**Individually sustainable CapEx / OpEx refers to CapEx / OpEx that enables an economic activity to be conducted in a
low-carbon manner or to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

SUSTAINABILITY PERFORMANCE
Kemira's sustainability work covers economical, environmental, and social topics and is guided
by the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Our focus is on Clean Water and Sanitation
(SDG6), Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG8), Responsible Consumption and Production
(SDG12), and Climate Action (SDG13). More information on sustainability at Kemira can be
found in the Sustainability report 2022.
SUSTAINABILITY PERFORMANCE IN 2022
SAFETY
In 2022 systematic work was done to reinforce a culture where people actively promote safety
and recognize and correct unsafe behaviors. Kemira’s safety performance in 2022 improved
slightly compared to 2021 and the TRIF rate was 2.6. Safety performance improved clearly
towards the year-end and the Q4 TRIF rate was 1.7.
PEOPLE
Kemira's long-term goal is to reach the top 10% cross industry benchmark for Diversity &
Inclusion by 2025. In 2022, Kemira D&I index score improved by 2 points and Kemira was able
to slightly close the gap to the target group. Kemira ended slightly below the top 25% cross
industry benchmark. In order to promote a diverse and inclusive work environment, Kemira
had several initiatives during the year, such as diversity & inclusion training for people leaders
and new employee resource groups, Women's Network and KemPride.
CIRCULARITY
Kemira continued to make progress in its biobased strategy and launched a new Growth
Accelerator unit during 2022 in order to accelerate the commercialization of new biobased
products. In addition, Kemira signed a multi-year extension to its partnership with Danimer
Scientific to develop and commercialize biobased coatings. In terms of waste, Kemira
continued site-specific work to identify opportunities for waste reduction during the year.
Waste intensity in 2022 increased slightly compared to 2021.
WATER
In Q1 2022, Kemira updated its sustainability target for water and aims to reach the highest,
Leadership-level (A), in water management by the end of 2025 as measured by CDP Water
Security. In 2022 Kemira was rated B by CDP's Water Security scoring methodology. Based on
the scoring report Kemira's overall water management improved compared to 2021.
CLIMATE
During Q2 2022, Kemira committed to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and set a
new ambitious climate target to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 50% by 2030. In H2
2022 Kemira worked to develop a quantified near-term Scope 3 emission reduction target to
be validated by the SBTi. In 2022, Kemira's Scope 1 and 2 emissions declined by around 5%
compared to 2021, which is slightly above t he level expected to meet the updated 2030
climate target. However, Kemira has ongoing near-term projects which are expected to
further reduce our emissions in line with the more ambitious target.

*12-month rolling average
The segment’s revenue increased by 30%. Revenue in local currencies (excluding divestments
and acquisitions) increased by 24% driven by higher sales prices in all product groups,
particularly in energy-intensive pulp and bleaching chemicals, including caustic soda.
Sales volumes declined following softer demand towards the end of the year and Kemira's exit
from Russia.
In EMEA, revenue increased by 33% to EUR 1,088.6 million (816.8) due to higher sales prices
across product groups, particularly in energy-intensive pulp and bleaching chemicals,
including caustic soda. Sales volumes declined.
In the Americas, revenue increased by 34% to EUR 647.1 million (481.6). Revenue in local
currencies, excluding acquisitions and divestments, increased by 20% due to higher sales
prices across product groups. Sales volumes declined.
In APAC, revenue increased by 12% to EUR 292.0 million (261.2). Revenue in local currencies,
excluding acquisitions and divestments, increased by 5% due to higher sales prices,
particularly in sizing chemicals. Sales volumes declined.
Operative EBITDA increased by 42% following higher revenue and, in particular, due to high
market prices for energy-intensive pulp and bleaching chemicals, including caustic soda. The
operative EBITDA margin increased to 17.2% due to higher sales prices. EBITDA increased by
70%. The difference between it and operative EBITDA is explained by items affecting
comparability, which were mainly related to an expected loss from the divestment of most of
our colorants business, environmental provisions, Kemira's exit from Russia and a
manufacturing unit sale to a customer. Items affecting comparability in the comparison period
mainly consisted of a provision caused by the expected underutilization of a single-asset
energy company in Pori, Finland majority owned by Kemira via Pohjolan Voima, a damage claim
settlement with CDC, a provision related to a site closure and organizational restructuring
costs.

AGM DECISIONS
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Kemira Oyj's Annual General Meeting, held on March 24, 2022, approved the Board of
Directors' proposal for a dividend of EUR 0.58 per share for the financial year 2021. The
dividend was paid in two installments. The first installment of EUR 0.29 per share was paid on
April 7, 2022. The Annual General Meeting authorized the Board of Directors to decide the
record date and the payment date for the second installment of the dividend.
The Board of Directors decided on the record date and the payment date for the second
installment of the dividend of EUR 0.29 at its meeting on October 24, 2022. The payment date
of the second installment of the dividend was November 3, 2022. Kemira announced the
resolution of the Board of Directors with a separate stock exchange release and confirmed
the record and payment dates.
The AGM 2022 authorized the Board of Directors to decide upon the repurchase of a
maximum of 5,800,000 of the company’s own shares. This corresponds to approximately 3.7%
of all shares and votes in the company. The shares will be repurchased by using unrestricted
equity, either through a tender offer with equal terms to all shareholders at a price
determined by the Board of Directors or otherwise in proportion to the existing shareholdings
of the company’s shareholders in public trading on the Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd. (the “Helsinki
Stock Exchange”) at the market price quoted at the time of repurchase. The price paid for the
shares repurchased through a tender offer under the authorization shall be based on the
market price of the company’s shares in public trading. The minimum price to be paid would
be the lowest market price of the share quoted in public trading during the authorization
period and the maximum price would be the highest market price quoted during the
authorization period. Shares shall be acquired and paid for in accordance with the rules of the
Helsinki Stock Exchange and those of Euroclear Finland Ltd. Shares may be repurchased to be
used in implementing or financing mergers and acquisitions, developing the company’s capital
structure, improving the liquidity of the company’s shares, or to be used for the payment of
the annual fee payable to the members of the Board of Directors or implementing the
company’s share-based incentive plans. In order to realize the aforementioned purposes, the
shares acquired may be retained, transferred further or cancelled by the company. The Board
of Directors will decide on other terms related to the share repurchase. The Share repurchase

authorization is valid until the end of the next Annual General Meeting. The authorization was
not used by 31 December 2022.
The Annual General Meeting authorized the Board of Directors to decide to issue a maximum
of 15,600,000 new shares (corresponding to approximately 10% of all company shares and
votes) and/or transfer a maximum of 7,800,000 company’s own shares (corresponding to
approximately 5% of all company shares and votes) held by the company (“Share issue”). The
new shares may be issued and the company’s own shares held by the company may be
transferred either for consideration or without consideration. The new shares may be issued
and the company's own shares held by the company may be transferred to the company’s
shareholders in proportion to their current shareholdings in the company, or by disapplying
the shareholders’ pre-emption right, through a directed share issue, if the company has a
weighty financial reason to do so, such as financing or implementing mergers and
acquisitions, developing the capital structure of the company, improving the liquidity of the
company’s shares or, if it is justified, for the payment of the annual fee payable to the
members of the Board of Directors or implementing the company’s share-based incentive
plans. The directed share issue may be carried out without consideration only in connection
with the implementation of the company’s share-based incentive plans. The subscription
price of new shares shall be recorded to the invested unrestricted equity reserves. The
consideration payable for company's own shares shall be recorded to the invested
unrestricted equity reserves. The Board of Directors shall decide upon other terms related to
the share issues. The Share issue authorization is valid until May 31, 2023. The share issue
authorization has been used and shares owned by the Group were conveyed to members of
the Board and key employees in connection with the remuneration.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REVIEW

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 19
SHORT TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
PRICE AND AVAILABILITY OF RAW MATERIALS AND COMMODITIES
A significant and sudden increase in the cost of raw materials, commodities, or logistics could
place Kemira’s profitability at risk if Kemira is not able to pass on such increases to product
prices without delay. For instance, considerable and/or rapid changes in oil, energy, and
electricity prices could materially impact Kemira’s profitability. Changes in the raw material
supplier field, such as consolidation or decreasing capacity, may also increase raw material
prices. Furthermore, significant demand changes in industries that are the main users of
certain raw materials may lead to raw material price fluctuations. In 2022, raw material and
commodity prices increased significantly mainly following the war in Ukraine. Energy and
electricity prices also increased significantly, particularly in Europe following the war in
Ukraine. The war in Ukraine also led to concerns about sufficient energy availability to Europe.
In 2023 variable costs are expected to stay at a high level although cost increases are
expected to moderate. Electricity prices are expected to stay above long-term average levels.
Poor availability of certain raw materials may affect Kemira’s production and also profitability
if Kemira fails to prepare for this by mapping out alternative suppliers or opportunities for
process changes. Raw material and commodity risks can be effectively monitored and
managed with Kemira's centralized Sourcing unit. Risk management measures include, for
instance, forward-looking forecasting of key raw materials and commodities, synchronization
of raw material purchase agreements and sales agreements, captive manufacturing of some
of the critical raw materials, strategic investment in energy-generating companies, and
hedging a portion of the energy and electricity spend. In 2022, Kemira witnessed some raw
material availability issues following the war in Ukraine and due to COVID-19 restrictions in
China. Before the war in Ukraine, 1% of Kemira's total direct purchases and logistics costs
were related to purchases from Russia and Belarus. Kemira did not purchase raw materials
from Ukraine. In 2022, Kemira worked to find long-term alternatives to Russian and
Belarussian suppliers. Continued supply chain disruptions are possible in 2023 depending on
the development of the war in Ukraine. Also the relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions in China
could have an impact on global supply chains.
Following the war in Ukraine, the energy market in Europe has been disrupted. This has led to
temporary shutdowns in industrial production in Europe due to high energy prices, particularly
for natural gas. The unaffordability of energy for industrial operations could lead to extended
or permanent shutdowns of chemical manufacturing in Europe, which could have an adverse
impact on Kemira’s supply chain. Kemira is monitoring the situation closely.
SUPPLIERS
The continuity of Kemira’s business operations is dependent on the accurate supply of good-
quality products and services. Kemira currently has in place numerous partnerships and other
agreements with third-party product and service suppliers to secure its business continuity.
Certain products used as raw materials are considered critical, as the purchase can be made
economically only from a sole or single source. In the event of a sudden and significant loss or
interruption in the supply of such a raw material, Kemira’s operations could be impacted, and
this could have a negative effect on Kemira. Ineffective procurement planning, supply source
selection, and contract administration, as well as inadequate supplier relationship
management, create a risk of Kemira not being able to fulfill its promises to customers. The
war in Ukraine or the COVID-19 pandemic did not cause significant impacts on Kemira’s
manufacturing operations in 2022. However, there were disruptions in the availability of
certain raw materials that Kemira purchases. Kemira was able to handle the situation and the
impact on Kemira’s revenue was not material. Disruptions to energy availability or changes in
energy pricing could also increase counterparty risk in energy hedging. Kemira is monitoring
the energy counterparty risk actively.
Kemira sources a large share of its electricity in Finland at production cost (Mankala principle)
through its partial ownership in the electricity producing hydro and nuclear assets of
Teollisuuden Voima and Pohjolan Voima. Significant long-term disruptions to the production
levels in these assets could have an adverse financial impact for Kemira.
Kemira continuously aims to identify, analyze, and engage third-party suppliers in a way that
ensures security of supply and competitive pricing of the end products and services.
Collaborative relationships with key suppliers are developed in order to uncover and realize
new value and to reduce risk. Supplier performance is also regularly monitored as a part of the
supplier performance management process. Due to the high-risk environment related to
suppliers of the chemical industry, risk management and mitigation in this area is of
continuous high focus.
HAZARD RISKS
Kemira’s production activities are exposed to many hazard risks – such as fires and
explosions, machinery breakdowns, natural catastrophes, exceptional weather conditions,

BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REVIEW

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 20
and environmental incidents – and the consequent possible liabilities, as well as the risks to
employee health and safety. These risk events could derive from several factors, also
including (but not limited to) unauthorized IT system access by a malicious intruder or other
cyber security issues causing possible damage to the systems, which in turn could lead to
financial losses. A systematic focus on achieving set targets, certified management systems,
efficient hazard prevention programs, the promotion of an active safety culture, adequate
maintenance, and competent personnel play a central role in managing these hazard risks. In
addition, Kemira has several insurance programs that protect the company against the
financial impacts of hazard risks. Kemira also actively trains and educates its personnel on
detecting and reporting on possible cyber security threats. Kemira's Board of Directors
regularly reviews cyber security risks.
Kemira's operations rely on functional and up-to-date IT systems. Kemira is renewing its
group-wide enterprise resource planning system with an estimated completion during 2023.
Issues with existing IT systems or significant problems with the ERP transition could have an
impact on Kemira's operations.
CHANGES IN CUSTOMER DEMAND
A significant unforeseen decline in the use of certain chemicals (e.g. chemicals for packaging
and board production) or in the demand for customers’ products and operations could have a
negative impact on Kemira’s business. A significant decline in certain raw material and utility
prices (e.g. oil, gas, and metals) may shift customers’ activities towards areas where fewer
chemicals are needed. Also, increased awareness of and concern about climate change and
more sustainable products may change customer demands, for instance, in favor of water
treatment technologies with lower chemical consumption. On the other hand, possible
capacity expansions by customers could increase the chemical consumption and challenge
Kemira’s current production capacity.
In order to manage and mitigate this risk, Kemira systematically monitors leading and early
warning indicators that focus on market development. Kemira has also continued to focus on
the sustainability of its business and is further improving the coordination and cooperation
between the Business Development, R&D, and Sales units in order to better understand the
future needs and expectations of its customers. Timely capital investments as well as
continuous discussions and follow-ups with customers ensure Kemira’s ability to respond to
changes in demand. Kemira’s geographic and customer industry diversity also provide partial
protection against the risk of changed customer demands.
To respond to expected changes in customer requirements, Kemira has also revised its
strategy to focus more on biobased products. Kemira has also started several external
partnerships in order to innovate and commercialize new biobased products to its customers.
Biobased products are expected to play a significant role in Kemira’s growth ambitions.
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND GEOPOLITICAL CHANGES
Uncertainties in the global economic and geopolitical development are considered to include
direct or indirect risks, such as a lower-growth period in global GDP and possible unexpected
trade-related political decisions, both of which could have unfavorable impacts on the
demand for Kemira’s products. Certain political actions or changes, especially in countries
that are important to Kemira, could cause business interference or other adverse
consequences. The ongoing war in Ukraine and sanctions against Russia have increased
uncertainty in the global economy and also created concerns about sufficient energy
availability in Europe. Possible trade or supply chain disruptions following geopolitical
tensions in eastern Asia could also have an impact on Kemira’s operations as Kemira sources
materials from the region and has manufacturing facilities and derives around 10% of its
revenue from the APAC region.
Weak economic development may result in customer closures or consolidations, resulting in a
diminishing customer base. The liquidity of Kemira’s customers could become weaker,
resulting in increased credit losses for Kemira. Despite the increased economic uncertainty in
2022, Kemira did not see materially higher credit losses. Unfavorable market conditions may
also increase the availability and price risk of certain raw materials. Kemira’s geographical and
customer industry diversity provides only partial protection against these risks. Kemira
continuously monitors geopolitical movements and changes and aims to adjust its business
accordingly. Trade war-related risks are actively monitored and taken into account.
COMPETITION
Kemira operates in a rapidly changing and competitive business environment that represents
a considerable risk to meeting its goals. New players seeking a foothold in Kemira’s key
business segments may use aggressive means as a competitive tool, which could affect
Kemira’s financial results. Major competitor or customer consolidations could change the
market dynamics, and possibly also change Kemira’s market position.
Kemira is seeking growth in product categories that are less familiar and where new
competitive situations prevail, particularly in biobased products. In the long term, completely

new types of technology may considerably change the current competitive situation. This risk
is managed at both Group and segment levels through continuous monitoring of the
competition. The company aims to respond to its competition through the active management
of customer relationships and continuous development of its products and services to further
differentiate itself from the competitors and to be competitive.
ACQUISITIONS
In addition to organic growth, acquisitions are a potential way to achieve corporate goals and
strategies. Consolidations are driven by chemical manufacturers’ interests in realizing
synergies and establishing footholds in new markets. Acquisitions and/or partnerships may
also be needed in order to enter totally new geographic markets or new product markets.
However, the integration of acquired businesses, operations, and personnel also involves
risks. If integration is unsuccessful, the results may fall short of the targets for such
acquisitions.
Kemira has created mergers and acquisitions procedures and established Group-level
dedicated resources to actively manage merger and acquisition activities and to support the
execution of its business transactions. In addition, external advisory services are being used
to screen potential merger and acquisition targets.
INNOVATION AND R&D
Kemira’s research and development is a critical enabler of organic growth and further
differentiation. Kemira’s future market position and profitability depend on its ability to
understand and meet current and future customer needs and market trends, and its ability to
innovate new differentiated products and applications. Furthermore, new product launches
contribute to the efficiency and sustainability of Kemira’s or its customers’ processes, as well
as to the improved profitability. Failure to innovate or focus on disruptive new technologies
and products, or to effectively commercialize new products or service concepts may result in
the non-achievement of growth targets and may negatively impact Kemira’s competitive
situation.
Innovation- and R&D-related risks are managed through effective R&D portfolio management,
in close collaboration between R&D and the two business segments. There is close
coordination and cooperation between the Business Development, R&D, Sales, and Marketing
units in order to better understand the future needs and expectations of Kemira's customers.
With the continuous development of innovation processes, Kemira is aiming for more
stringent project execution. Kemira maintains an increased focus towards the development of
more differentiated and sustainable products and processes, and is also continuously
monitoring sales of its new products and applications.
CHANGES IN LAWS AND REGULATIONS
Kemira’s business is subject to various laws and regulations, which have relevance in the
development and implementation of Kemira’s strategy. Laws and regulations can generally be
considered as an opportunity for Kemira, as regulation drives the treatment of water, for
example. However, certain legislative initiatives supporting, for instance, the use of
biodegradable raw materials or biological water treatment, or limiting the use of aluminum,
may also have a negative impact on Kemira’s business. Significant changes in chemical,
environmental or transportation laws and regulations may also impact Kemira’s profitability
through an increase in production and transportation costs. At the same time, such changes
may also create new business opportunities for Kemira. As an example, possible restrictions
for plastic packaging would likely benefit the fiber-based packaging industry and therefore
also Kemira. In addition, Kemira is actively following the European Commission's proposal for
Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulations and its implications, particularly for disposable
packaging.
Inclusion of new substances in the REACH authorization process may also bring further
requirements to Kemira, where failure to obtain the relevant authorization could impact
Kemira’s business. In addition, the changes in import/export and customs-related regulations
create needs for monitoring and mastering global trade compliance in order to ensure
compliant product importation, for example.
Kemira continuously follows regulatory developments in order to maintain its awareness of
proposed and upcoming changes of those laws and regulations that may have an impact, for
instance, on its sales, production, and product development needs. Kemira has established an
internal process to manage substances of potential concern and to create management plans
for them. These plans cover the possibilities to replace certain substances if they become
subject to stricter regulation, for example. Kemira has also increased its focus and resources
in the management of global trade compliance.
Regulatory effects are also systematically taken into consideration in strategic decision
making. Kemira takes an active role in regulatory discussions whenever this is justified from
the perspective of the industry or business. For example, currently there are many regulatory

BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REVIEW

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 22
discussions ongoing in the EU, as the EU is undergoing a major review of its water legislation
and directives. This may have a positive demand-related impact for Kemira in the future, due
to the need for water to be treated more carefully. The EU has, as part of its Green Deal
initiative, launched several initiatives, such as the EU Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability
(CSS) and Fit-for-55 programs. Kemira is closely following these initiatives and their potential
implications for the chemical sector and Kemira.
TALENT MANAGEMENT
To secure competitiveness and profitable growth, as well as to improve operational
efficiency, it is essential to attract and retain personnel with the right skills and competences.
Kemira is continuously identifying people with high potential and key competencies for future
needs. Through the systematic development and improvement of compensation schemes,
learning programs, and career development programs, Kemira aims to ensure the continuity
of skilled personnel also in the future.
CLIMATE-RELATED RISKS
Kemira has identified certain climate-related risks that could have an impact on Kemira’s
operations or customer demand. Increased awareness of and concern about climate change
and more sustainable products may, for example, change customer demands in favor of water
treatment technologies with lower chemical consumption. Higher awareness of the impacts of
climate change could lead to a more rapid transition to sustainable, fossil-free energy
sources, which could lead to higher energy prices and impact the availability of energy. This
could have a negative impact on Kemira as parts of Kemira’s manufacturing operations are
energy-intensive. A part of Kemira’s raw materials are fossil-based. Kemira has active plans to
increase the share of renewable raw materials in its portfolio and reduce the reliance on oil
and gas derivatives. Many of Kemira's customers, particularly in the Pulp & Paper segment,
have ambitions to be carbon neutral, which will likely have implications on Kemira and the
chemicals used in the customers' processes. Also extreme weather patterns related to
climate change, such as hurricanes and floods, could impact Kemira’s supply chain and
suppliers as well as Kemira’s own manufacturing sites. Several climate related risks are
included in Kemira’s enterprise risk management portfolio and active monitoring and
mitigation planning is being done. In 2022, Kemira conducted an initial climate risk scenario
analysis in accordance with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)
framework. The analysis evaluated Kemira's climate risk from a global company perspective.
The results of the scenario analysis are described in more detail in Kemira’s sustainability
report.
RISKS AND IMPACTS OF THE WAR IN UKRAINE ON KEMIRA
Following the war in Ukraine and subsequent sanctions against Russia and Belarus, Kemira
announced its decision to discontinue deliveries to Russia and Belarus on March 1, 2022.
Russia accounted for around 3% of Kemira's sales in 2021. Revenue from Belarus and Ukraine
was not material in 2021. The fifth EU sanctions list published on April 9, 2022 included the
majority of Kemira’s products. Kemira announced on May 6, 2022 that it will exit the Russian
market. At the end of 2022, Kemira had no business operations or personnel left in Russia.
The direct impacts of the war on Kemira have been and are expected to be limited. Before the
war, 1% of Kemira's total direct purchases and logistics costs were related to purchases from
Russia and Belarus. Kemira does not purchase raw materials from Ukraine. In 2022, Kemira
was able to manage the situation without operational disruptions and has worked to find long-
term alternatives to Russian and Belarussian suppliers.
In 2022, the main risk from the war in Ukraine was accelerated inflation. The war in Ukraine
and the sanctions against Russia and Belarus have created concerns about sufficient energy
availability to Europe, particularly in natural gas. Kemira is a significant user of energy. The
majority of Kemira's energy purchases is electricity, but some of Kemira's production facilities
use natural gas in Europe. The energy crisis also increased energy prices significantly during
2022 and prices are expected to stay above long-term average prices also in 2023. Kemira's
annual energy purchases globally increased from around EUR 200 million in 2021 to around
EUR 300 million in 2022. Kemira is monitoring the energy market situation and its impacts on
Kemira closely. The energy crisis did not have a material impact on Kemira's operations during
2022.
Kemira is also exposed to indirect impacts via Kemira's customers and suppliers. In particular,
high energy prices or disruptions in energy availability could reduce or temporarily stop
production at Kemira's customers and/or suppliers, which could affect Kemira's end market
demand or supply chain. During 2022 some of Kemira's customers in the EMEA region,
particularly in the Pulp & Paper segment, curtailed or temporarily closed production due to
high energy prices, particularly during Q3 and Q4 2022.
In 2022, Kemira recorded EUR 4.8 million of losses related to its exit from Russia. At the end of
2022, net assets in Russian amounted to around EUR 8 million and consisted mainly of cash
and cash equivalents denominated in Russian roubles. Kemira is looking at options to

repatriate funds from Russia. Kemira had no assets or personnel in Belarus or Ukraine at the
end of December 2022.
For Kemira's 2023 outlook, including assumptions behind the outlook, please refer to the
section "Outlook" on page 27.
A detailed description of Kemira’s risk management principles is available on the company’s
website at www.kemira.com. Financial risks are described in the Notes to the Financial
Statements for the year 2022.

Euroclear Finland Oy on the record date for the dividend payment: March 24, 2023. The Board
of Directors proposes that the first installment of the dividend be paid out on April 5, 2023.The
second installment, of EUR 0.31 per share, will be paid in November 2023. The second
installment will be paid to shareholders who are registered in the company’s shareholder
register maintained by Euroclear Finland Oy on the record date for the dividend payment. The
Board of Directors will decide the record date and the payment date for the second
installment at its meeting in October 2023. The record date is planned to be October 26, 2023,
and the dividend payment date November 2, 2023 at the earliest.
Kemira’s dividend policy is to pay a competitive dividend that increases over time.
CHANGES IN KEMIRA'S MANAGEMENT BOARD
On May 18, 2022 Kemira announced that President, Segment Pulp & Paper, Kim Poulsen is

EVENTS AFTER THE REVIEW PERIOD
PROPOSALS OF THE NOMINATION BOARD TO THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2023
On January 9, 2023 Kemira announced the proposals of the Nomination Board to the Annual
General Meeting 2023.
The Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting of Kemira Oyj that eight
members be elected to the Board of Directors and that the present members Tina Sejersgård
Fanø, Werner Fuhrmann, Matti Kähkönen, Timo Lappalainen, Annika Paasikivi and Kristian
Pullola be re-elected as members of the Board of Directors. Nomination Board proposes that
Fernanda Lopes Larsen and Mikael Staffas be elected as new members of the Board of
Directors. In addition, the Nomination Board proposes that Matti Kähkönen be re-elected as
the Chair of the Board of Directors and Annika Paasikivi be re-elected as the Vice Chair.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REVIEW

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 24
All the nominees have given their consent to the position and are independent of the
company’s significant shareholders except for Annika Paasikivi. Annika Paasikivi is the
President & CEO of Oras Invest Oy and Oras Invest Oy owns over 10% of Kemira Oyj’s shares.
Of the current members of the Board of Directors Wolfgang Büchele, who has served on the
company's Board of Directors first from 2009 until 2012, then as President and CEO of Kemira
Oyj from 2012 until 2014, and then again in the Board of Directors since 2014, and Shirley
Cunningham, who has served on the Board of Directors since 2017, have informed that they
will no longer be available for re-election to the next term of the Board of Directors. The
Nomination Board wishes to thank Wolfgang Büchele and Shirley Cunningham for their long
service and significant contribution to Kemira Oyj.
Ms. Fernanda Lopes Larsen, M.Sc. (Engineering), b. 1974, has been Executive Vice President
Africa & Asia in Yara International since 2020. In 2012-2018 she served in multiple executive
and managerial positions in Yara International. In 2001-2012 she held managerial positions in
GlaxoSmithKline and in Procter & Gamble. Fernanda Lopes Larsen is a dual Brazilian and
British citizen.
Mr. Mikael Staffas, M.Sc. (Engineering), MBA, b. 1965, is the President & CEO of Boliden AB

McKinsey & Company in 1999-2004 and held various positions there in 1990-1999. Mikael
Staffas is a Swedish citizen.
Regarding the selection procedure for the members of the Board of Directors, the Nomination
Board recommends that shareholders take a position on the proposal as a whole at the
Annual General Meeting. This recommendation is based on the fact that Kemira’s
shareholders' Nomination Board is separate from the Board of Directors, in line with a good
Nordic governance model. The Nomination Board, in addition to ensuring that individual
nominees for membership of the Board of Directors possess the required competences, is
responsible for making sure that the proposed Board of Directors as a whole also has the best
possible expertise and experience for the company and that the diversity principles of the
company will be met, and that the composition of the Board of Directors meets other
requirements of the Finnish Corporate Governance Code for listed companies.
The Nomination Board proposes that the remuneration paid to the members of the Board of
Directors will be increased as follows (current remuneration in parentheses): for the Chair EUR
118,000 per year (EUR 110,000), for the Vice Chair and the Chair of the Audit Committee EUR
67,000 per year (EUR 65,000) and for the other members EUR 52,000 per year (EUR 50,000).
The Nomination Board proposes that a fee payable for each meeting of the Board of Directors
and the Board Committees will be paid based on the method of participation and place of the
meeting as follows: participating remotely or in a meeting arranged in the member’s country
of residence EUR 600, participating in a meeting arranged on the same continent as the
member’s country of residence EUR 1,200 and participating in a meeting arranged in a
different continent than the member’s country of residence EUR 2,400. Travel expenses are
proposed to be paid according to Kemira's travel policy.
In addition, the Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the annual
fee be paid as a combination of the company's shares and cash in such a manner that 40% of
the annual fee is paid with the company's shares owned by the company or, if this is not
possible, shares purchased from the market, and 60% is paid in cash. The shares will be
transferred to the members of the Board of Directors and, if necessary, acquired directly on
behalf of the members of the Board of Directors within two weeks from the release of
Kemira's interim report January 1 - March 31, 2023. The meeting fees are proposed to be paid
in cash.
The Nomination Board has consisted of the following representatives: Ville Kivelä, Chief
Investment Officer of Oras Invest Oy as the Chair of the Nomination Board; Pauli Anttila,
Investment Director, Solidium Oy; Lisa Beauvilain, Global Head of Sustainability, Executive
Director, Impax Asset Management plc and Annika Ekman, Head of Direct Equity Investments,
Ilmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance Company as members of the Nomination Board and Matti
Kähkönen, Chair of Kemira's Board of Directors as an expert member.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REVIEW

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 26
OUTLOOK FOR 2023
Revenue
Kemira's revenue is expected to be between EUR 3,200 million and EUR 3,700 million in 2023
(2022: EUR 3,569.6 million).
Operative EBITDA
Kemira's operative EBITDA is expected to be between EUR 500 and EUR 600 million in 2023
(2022: EUR 571.6 million).
Assumptions behind outlook
We expect demand in Kemira's end-markets to be resilient despite the significant uncertainty
related to the global macroeconomic environment, energy prices, and the development of the
war in Ukraine. Overall, Kemira’s end-market demand (in volumes) is expected to decline
somewhat. Demand in the oil & gas market is expected to grow. Variable costs are expected to
decline but with variation by raw material. Electricity prices are expected to remain above
long-term average in Europe, but with uncertainty related to the level of pricing. Market prices
for caustic soda are expected to moderate during 2023 from the current very high level. The
outlook assumes no major disruptions to Kemira’s manufacturing operations, supply chain, or
Kemira’s energy-generating assets in Finland. Foreign exchange rates are expected to remain
at approximately current levels.
FINANCIAL TARGETS
Kemira aims for above-market revenue growth with an operative EBITDA margin of 15–18%.
The target for gearing is below 75%.

BASIS OF PREPARATION FOR THE CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Group has prepared its Consolidated Financial
Statements in accordance with the International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS) and its International Financial
Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) interpretations,
adopted by the European Union. The Consolidated Financial
Statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS
standards and IFRIC Interpretations effective on December
31, 2022. The Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
also comply with the requirements of the Finnish accounting
and corporate legislation that supplement the IFRS
regulations.
The Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in EUR
million and have been prepared based on historical cost,
except for the items measured at fair value through other
comprehensive income including unlisted PVO/TVO shares,
financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or
loss, and share-based payments which are measured at fair
value.
Individual figures presented in the Consolidated Financial
Statements have been rounded to the nearest exact figure.
Therefore, the sum of the individual figures may deviate from
the sum figure presented in the Consolidated Financial
Statements. The key figures are calculated using exact
values.
NEW, AMENDED IFRS STANDARDS AND IFRIC
INTERPRETATIONS INTO EFFECT IN 2022
The Group has applied the following standards and
amendments for the first time to its annual reporting period
commencing January 1, 2022:
•Annual improvements to IFRS standards 2018–2020: IFRS
9, Financial instruments, the improvement in the standard
specifies that when assessing whether a change in a
financial debt leads to a change in an existing debt
instrument or the recognizing of a new debt instrument,
the entity should prepare a present value of the cash flows
related to the financial debt before and after the change,
including the lender and the recipient fees paid and
received.
•Amendments to the standard IAS 16, Property, plant and
equipment: Revenue before intended use, the standard
amendment clarifies how sales revenue is recognized from
unfinished PPE during their manufacturing phase or
otherwise before they have been made to operate as
intended by management. According to the clarification,
the income in question should be reported as revenue, and
not as a reduction of costs.
•Amendments to the standard IAS 37, Loss-making
contracts – the cost of fulfilling the contract, the standard
amendment clarifies that the cost of fulfilling the contract
includes costs directly related to the contract, including
other costs such as labor and material costs, as well as
other costs directly related to fulfilling the contract, such
as depreciation of PPE used to fulfill the contract.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IFRS) | PART OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2022

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 33
T he amendments listed above did not have any significant
impact on the amounts recognized in the financial period
January 1 – December 31, 2022 and are not expected to
significantly affect the next financial period January 1 –
December 31, 2023.
NEW, AMENDED IFRS STANDARDS AND IFRIC
INTERPRETATIONS NOT YET ADOPTED
•Amendments to the standard IAS 1, Classification of
liabilities into current and non-current. The amendments
clarify how to classify debts as current or non-current
when the entity has the right to postpone the payment of
the debt for at least 12 months.
•Amendments to the standard IAS 12, Income taxes:
Deferred taxes related to assets and liabilities arising from
a single transaction.
•Amendments to the standard IAS 1, Presentation of
financial statements: Disclosure of accounting policies.
The amendment clarifies in which situations a change in
the accounting policy is material and it must be disclosed.
•Amendments to the standard IAS 8, Accounting policies,
changes and errors in accounting estimates: Definition of
accounting estimates. The amendment clarifies the
definition and application of the accounting estimates.
New IFRS standards, amendments to standards and IFRIC
interpretations effective on or after January 1, 2023 are not
expected to have a material impact on the Group.
CONSOLIDATION PRINCIPLES OF SUBSIDIARIES AND NON-
CONTROLLING INTERESTS
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the parent
company Kemira Oyj and its subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are all
entities that the Group has control over (voting rights
generally being over 50 percent). The Group controls an
entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable
returns from its involvement with the entity, and when it has
the ability to affect those returns through its power over the
entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on
which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-
consolidated from the date on which this control ceases.
All intra-group transactions are eliminated. Intra-group
shareholdings are eliminated using the acquisition method.
The consideration transferred for acquisition of a subsidiary
is defined as an aggregate of the fair values of the assets
transferred, the liabilities assumed and the equity interest
issued by the Group. The consideration transferred may
include the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from
the contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-
related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets
acquired, and liabilities and contingent liabilities that are
assumed in a business combination are measured at their fair
values on the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-
acquisition basis, the Group recognizes any non-controlling
interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-
controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s
net assets.
The amount that exceeds the aggregate of consideration
transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous
equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the
Group’s share of the net assets acquired is recognized as
goodwill in the Balance Sheet. If this is less than the fair value
of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired by bargain
purchase, the difference is recognized directly in the Income
Statement.
Net profit or loss for the financial year and other
comprehensive income attributable to the equity holders of
the parent and non-controlling interests are presented in the
Income Statement and in the Statement of Comprehensive
Income. The portion of equity attributable to non-controlling
interests is stated as an individual item separately from the
equity to the equity holders of the parent company. Total
comprehensive income shows separately the total amounts
attributable to the equity holders of the parent company and
to non-controlling interests. The Group recognizes negative
non-controlling interests, unless the non-controlling interest
does not have a binding obligation to cover the losses up to
the amount of their investment.
If the parent company’s ownership interest in the subsidiary
is reduced but control is retained, then the transactions are
treated as equity transactions. When the Group ceases to
have control or significant influence, any retained interest in
the entity is remeasured at its fair value, and the difference is
recognized as profit or loss.
ASSOCIATES
Associated companies are companies over which the Group
exercises significant influence (voting rights generally being
20–50 percent), but does not control. Holdings in associated
companies are consolidated using the equity method. If the
Group’s share of the associate’s losses exceeds the carrying
amount of the investment, the exceeding losses will not be
consolidated unless the Group has a commitment to fulfill
the obligations on behalf of the associate. The Group’s share
of the associated companies’ net profit for the financial year
is stated as a separate item in the consolidated Income
Statement in operating profit, in proportion to the Group’s
holdings. The Group’s share of the movements of its
associates in other comprehensive income is recognized in
the Group’s other comprehensive income.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IFRS) | PART OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2022

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 34
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in
euros, which is the Group’s presentation currency and the
parent company’s functional and presentation currency.
Items included in the financial statements of each of the
Group’s entities are measured by using the currency of the
primary economic environment in which the entity operates
(the functional currency).
If the functional currency of the subsidiary is other than the
euro, its Income Statement is translated into euros using the
financial year’s average foreign currency exchange rates, and
the balance sheets are translated using the exchange rates
quoted on the balance sheet date. Translating the net profit
for the period using different exchange rates in the Income
Statement and in the balance sheet causes a translation
difference recognized as equity on the Balance Sheet. The
change in this translation difference is presented under
Other Comprehensive Income. Goodwill and fair value
adjustments to the carrying amounts of the assets and
liabilities that arise from the acquisition of a foreign entity are
accounted for as part of the assets and liabilities of the
foreign entity, and are translated into euros at the rate
quoted on the balance sheet date.
Translation differences in the loans granted to some foreign
subsidiaries are treated as an increase or decrease in other
comprehensive income. When the Group ceases to have
control over a subsidiary, the accumulated translation
difference is transferred into the Income Statement as part
of the gain or loss on the sale.
In their day-to-day accounting, the Group companies
translate foreign currency transactions into their functional
currency at the exchange rates quoted on the transaction
date. In the Financial Statements, foreign currency
denominated receivables and liabilities are measured at the
exchange rates quoted on the balance sheet date. Non-
monetary items are measured using the rates quoted on the
transaction date. Any foreign exchange gains and losses
related to business operations are treated as adjustments to
sales and purchases. Exchange rate differences associated
with financing transactions and the hedging of the Group’s
overall foreign currency position are stated in foreign
exchange gains or losses under finance income and
expenses.
THE ITEMS IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT
INCLUDE ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ACCOUNTING
POLICIES THAT REQUIRE JUDGMENT BY THE
MANAGEMENT
When preparing Consolidated Financial Statements in
accordance with IFRS, the management is required to make
accounting estimates and assumptions concerning the
future. The resulting accounting estimate will seldom be
equal to the actual results. In addition, management is
required to exercise judgment when applying the accounting
policies.
Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated, and
are based on past experience and expectations of future
events that may have financial implications and are
considered to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The following table lists items in the financial statements that
include significant accounting estimates and includes the
notes related to them. Also included are the accounting
policies and the sensitivity analysis applied to the items. The
items that include accounting estimates are subject to a risk
of changes in the carrying amount of assets and liabilities
during the next financial period.

The items in the Financial Statements | Note in the Financial Statements
Goodwill | 3.1. Goodwill
Fair value of shares in the PVO Group | 3.5. Other shares
Deferred taxes and uncertain tax positions | 2.6. Income taxes and 4.4. Deferred tax liabilities and assets
Defined benefit pension plans | 4.5. Defined benefit pension plans and employee benefits
Provisions | 4.6. Provisions

EFFECTS OF THE UKRAINE WAR ON THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
At the end of December 2022, Kemira had no operative
business or personnel left in Russia. In 2022, Kemira recorded
EUR 4.8 million of losses related to its exit from Russia, which
were mostly related to PP&E write-downs (Note 2.4.
Depreciation, amortization, and impairments), credit losses
(Note 4.2. Trade receivables and other current receivables),
and other liabilities. At the end of December 2022, Kemira
had approximately EUR 8 million net assets, mainly in cash
and cash equivalents, in Russia in Russian roubles. Kemira is
looking at options to repatriate funds from Russia.
EFFECTS OF CLIMATE-RELATED MATTERS IN FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
Sustainability is a key driver of Kemira's profitable growth
strategy. Sustainability at Kemira focuses on five topics:
safety, people, circularity, water, and climate. Kemira's
ambition is to be carbon neutral by 2045.
Climate-related matters have an impact in several areas of
Kemira's Consolidated Financial Statements. A s a chemicals
company operating in an energy-intensive industry, Kemira
has two Power Purchase Agreements in wind power and an
ownership in Pohjolan Voima Oyj and Teollisuuden Voima Oyj

investments, thus also affecting non-current assets (Note
3.3 Property, Plant and Equipment) as well as future cash
flow forecasts used in goodwill impairment testing (Note 3.1
Goodwill). Kemira has a partnership with Danimer Scientific
Inc. to develop fully biobased barrier coatings for paper and
board products, generating intangible assets (Note 3.2 Other
Intangible Assets).
In addition, Kemira has an undrawn revolving credit facility of
EUR 400 million with sustainability targets (Note 5.5
Management of Financial Risk). Kemira's long-term incentive
program for years 2023-2025 also includes climate-related
targets in the KPIs measured.

2. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
2.1 SEGMENT INFORMATION
Kemira's organization consists of two segments: Pulp & Paper and Industry & Water.
PULP & PAPER
Pulp & Paper has expertise in applying chemicals and supporting pulp and paper producers in
innovating and constantly improving their operational efficiency. The segment develops and

that are not defined by IFRS. Kemira believes that alternative performance measures followed
by capital markets and Kemira management, such as organic growth*, EBITDA, operative
EBITDA, operative EBIT, cash flow after investing activities as well as gearing, provide useful
information about Kemira’s comparable business performance and financial position.
Selected alternative performance measures are also used as performance criteria in
remuneration.
Kemira’s alternative performance measures should not be viewed in isolation from the
equivalent IFRS measures and should instead be read in conjunction with the most directly
comparable IFRS measures. Definitions of the key figures is disclosed in the section
Definitions of key figures.
* Revenue growth in local currencies, excluding acquisitions and divestments.

l iabilities. Geographically, Kemira’s operations are divided into three busine ss regions:
Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), the Americas and the Asia Pacific (APAC).
Revenue recognition
IFRS 15 standard establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting
for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The core principle is that an entity should
recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers to an
amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in
exchange for those goods or services. The Group recognizes revenue when (or as) a
performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ‘control’ of the good or service underlying the
particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer.
The Group's revenue consists mainly of contract types that include sales of chemical
products as well as services and equipment which are related to sales of these chemical
products. In 2022 and 2021, services have not formed a significant part of the Group's
revenue.
Revenue recognition occurs at the point when the control of the products is transferred to
the customer. Generally, in the Group's sales agreements, control is transferred to the
customer based on delivery terms and the revenue is recognized at a point in time.
The Group provides delivery and handling services in conjunction with the sale of chemical
products to customers. The delivery and handling services are recognized at the same time
as revenue from products and are not treated as a separate performance obligation. Kemira
recognizes the sale of products and the delivery and handling services for the same
reporting period.
Discounts provided to customers are not a significant component of the sales price in
Kemira’s sales contracts.

Government grants
Government grants for investments are recognized as a deduction from the carrying amount
of PP&E. The grants are recognized in the income statement as smaller depreciation over the
asset’s useful life. Government grants for research activities are recognized as a deduction
from expenses and certain other grants are recognized in other income from operations.
Research and developments costs
Research and development costs are recognized as an expense as incurred. Development
costs are capitalized as intangible assets when it can be shown that a development project
will generate a probable future economic benefit, and the costs attributable to the
development project can reliably be measured. Capitalized development costs include
material, labor, and testing costs, as well as any capitalized borrowing costs that are directly
attributable to bringing the asset ready for its intended use. Other development costs that do
not meet these criteria are recognized as an expense as incurred. Development costs
previously recognized as an expense are not recognized as an asset in the subsequent
periods.

2.3 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
Share incentive plans 2019–2023
In December 2018, Kemira's Board of Directors of Kemira Oyj decided to establish a long-term
incentive plan for 2019–2023. Kemira has a long-term share incentive plan directed towards a
group of key employees, which is composed of two one-year performance periods for the
years 2019 and 2020, and three three-year performance periods for the years 2019–2021,
2020–2022 and 2021–2023.The Board has decided on the plan’s performance criteria and the
targets for each criterion at the beginning of each performance period.
The rewards for the performance periods have been paid partly in Kemira Oyj's shares and
partly in cash. The cash proportion is intended to cover taxes and tax-related costs arising
from the reward to the participant. As a rule, no reward has been paid if a participant's
employment or service has ended before the reward payment. The shares paid as a reward
may not be transferred during the restriction period, which ends two years after the end of
the performance period. If a participant's employment or service has ended during the
restriction period, the participant has, as a rule, gratuitously returned the shares given as a
reward without consideration. The restriction period only applies to the one-year performance
period.
Share incentive plans 2022–2026
In December 2021, the Board of Directors of Kemira Oyj decided to establish a long-term share
incentive plan directed to a group of key employees in Kemira. The long-term share incentive
plan includes three three-year performance periods: years 2022–2024, 2023–2025 and 2024–

shall decide on the plan’s participants and share allocations at the beginning of each
performance period.

The Group's accounting policies
Share-based payments
The Group has equity-settled share-based incentive plans under which the Group receives
services from persons as consideration for the share-based rewards. The potential rewards
for these services are provided to the person partly in shares and partly in cash. The Group's
share incentive plan includes persons in several different countries where the Group is
obliged under local tax laws or regulations to pay the tax liability to the tax authorities on
behalf of a person in cash. The Group's share-based incentive plans have been entirely
classified as an equity-settled transaction.
The rewards granted on the basis of a share-based arrangement are recognized as
personnel expenses in the income statement and in equity. The expense is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the vesting period, which is the period over which the specified
vesting conditions are to be satisfied.
The fair value of the share awards has been determined at the grant date and less the
estimated expected dividends that will not be received during the vesting period. The fair
value of the rewards is based on the Group's estimate of the number of shares to which the
right is expected to vest at the end of the vesting period. An estimate of the number of
shares is reviewed at each balance sheet date. The potential effect of revisions to estimates
is recognized as a personnel expense in the income statement, with the corresponding fair
value adjustment made to equity.

Impairment testing of goodwill
Goodwill is allocated to the two individual cash-generating units that are the Group's
reportable segments. The reportable segment represents the lowest level within the Group at
which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. The Group’s two reportable
segments are Pulp & Paper and Industry & Water. A summary of the tested net book values
and goodwill relating to the Group’s reportable segments is presented in the following table.

The Group carries out its impairment testing of goodwill annually, or whenever there is an
indication that the recoverable amount may be less than its carrying amount. The recoverable
amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value in use calculations
which require the use of estimates and assumptions. The key assumptions in value in use
calculations are the EBITDA margin and discount rate.
The long-term EBITDA margin assumption used for the impairment testing of goodwill is
based on past experience regarding EBITDA margins and reflects the management's
perception of developments in sales prices and sales volumes during the forecast period. The
impact of climate-related risks to the Group's long-term performance have been considered
in the cash flow forecasts. The cash flow forecasts used in the impairment testing are based
on cash flow forecasts approved by the management covering a five-year horizon. The
expected growth used to extrapolate cash flows in the subsequent five-year forecast period
was assumed to be 1% (2021: 1%) in both cash-generating units Pulp & Paper and Industry &
Water.
The discount rates applied were based on the Group's adjusted Weighted Average Cost of
Capital (WACC) before taxes. The risk-adjusted WACC rate was defined for both cash-
generating units. The pre-tax discount rates used in performing the impairment tests of the
Group's reportable segments are presented in the following table.

% | 2022 | 2021
Pulp & Paper | 8.5 | 7.5
Industry & Water | 8.5 | 7.5

In addition, an impairment test based on market value has been carried out as part of
impairment testing. The value in use calculation based on cash flow forecasts has been
validated by comparing it against the quoted market value of Kemira Oyj.
During the financial years 2022 and 2021, impairment tests have not indicated any impairment,
and no impairment loss has been recognized in the income statement.
Sensitivity analysis
In 2022, as part of the impairment testing, the Group carried out a sensitivity analysis that
assessed key changes in assumptions as follows: a decrease of 2 percentage points in EBITDA
margin, a decrease of 10% in estimated cash flow during the forecast period, an increase of 1
and 2 percentage points in the discount rates or a decrease of 10% in cash flows and an
increase of 2 percentage points in the discount rate.
Based on the sensitivity analyses carried out, the management has estimated that changes in
the key assumptions of EBITDA margins, discount rates and cash flows would not result in the

cash-generating units carrying amount exceeding the recoverable amount and therefore there
would be no impairment losses recorded in either of the reportable segments.
The Group's accounting policies
Goodwill
Goodwill arises from business combinations. Goodwill represents the excess of the
consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and
the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair
value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is measured at cost less the
accumulated impairment losses.
Impairment testing
On each balance sheet date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication of an
asset’s impairment. If any indication of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of the
asset or the cash-generating unit is calculated on the basis of the value in use or the net
selling price.
For the purpose of impairment testing goodwill, a cash-generating unit has been defined as
an operating segment. Two or more operating segments are not combined into one
reportable segment. The recoverable amount of a reportable segment is defined as its value
in use, which consists of the discounted future cash flows to the unit. Estimates of future
cash flows are based on the continuing use of an asset and forecasts by the management.
Cash flow estimates do not include the effects of improved asset performance, investments,
or future reorganizations.
Goodwill impairment is tested by comparing the recoverable amount with the carrying
amount for the reportable segments Pulp & Paper and Industry & Water. The carrying
amount includes goodwill, intangible assets and PP&E, right-of-use assets, and working
capital. The Group does not have intangible assets with indefinite useful lives other than
goodwill. All goodwill has been allocated to the reportable segments.
An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or a cash-
generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized in the
income statement. If there has been a positive change in the estimates used to determine
an asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized, an impairment
loss recognized for previous years is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying
amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no
impairment loss had been recognized for the previous years. An impairment loss for goodwill
is never reversed.
The items in the financial statements that include significant accounting
estimates and accounting policies that require judgment
Impairment test of goodwill
The impairment tests of goodwill and other assets include determining future cash flows
which, with regard to the most significant assumptions, are based on EBITDA margin and
discount rates. Significant adverse developments in cash flows and interest rates may
necessitate the recognition of an impairment loss.

Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets include, for instance, software and software licenses and patents,
technologies, non-compete agreements and customer relationships acquired in business
combinations. On the contrary, cloud-based software as service acquisitions generally do
not, by their nature, meet the characteristics of an intangible asset and are therefore
recognized as an expense. Intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated
amortization and any impairment losses. The Group has no intangible assets that have an
indefinite useful life other than goodwill.

Emission rights
Emission rights purchased on the market are accounted for as intangible assets measured
at cost. Emission rights received free of charge are measured at their nominal value (zero).
Emission rights are not amortized. A provision for the fulfillment of the obligation to return
emission rights are recognized if the free-of-charge emissions are not sufficient to cover
actual emissions. The Group’s consolidated balance sheet shows no items related to
emission rights when the volume of actual emissions is lower than that of the free-of-charge
emissions allowances and the Group has not bought allowances on the market.

Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any
impairment losses. The residual values and useful lives of the assets are reviewed at least at
the end of each financial year. Gains and losses on the sale of non-current assets are
included in other operating income and expenses. Borrowing costs directly attributable to
the acquisition or construction of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of
the asset in question when it is probable that they will generate future economic benefits
and the costs can be reliably measured. The costs of major inspections or the overhaul of an
asset performed at regular intervals and identified as separate components are capitalized
and depreciated over their useful lives.

The Group's accounting policies
Leases
At the time of entering into an agreement, the Group assesses whether it is a lease or
whether it contains a lease. An agreement is a lease in accordance with IFRS 16 if the
agreement gives the Group, as lessee, the right to control the asset and control its use for a
specified period, against consideration. The Group's leases are mainly for land, buildings,
and transport equipment.
The lease is recognized as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability when the leased
asset is available to the Group. The rent paid is divided into debt and interest expenses.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IFRS) | PART OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2022

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 55
I nterest expenses are recognized in the income statement over the lease term and the asset
is amortized over the lease term. Assets and liabilities arising from leases are initially
measured at present value. Lease liabilities include the net fair value of rentals, consisting of
a fixed payment and a variable rent that are index- or price-level dependent. The lease
liability is discounted to its present value using an interest rate on the additional loan,
consisting of the reference interest rate and the lessee's credit margin, which the lessee
would pay on the acquisition of the corresponding asset by debt financing. This additional
loan rate will vary depending on the duration of the lease and the currency.
The lease term is the period during which the lease cannot be canceled. The Group leases
typically have a fixed term, and some contracts have options for renewal. The option is
included in the lease liability if it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. If
there is a change in the estimate of the exercise of the option, the lease liability and the
related asset are reassessed.
A right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which includes the original amount of the lease
liability. In building leases, lease and non-lease components are treated separately wherever
they can be identified and distinguished from the right-of-use asset. In subsequent periods,
the accumulated depreciation and impairment losses are deducted from the asset. Fixed
assets are tested for impairment in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets.
Payments for short-term and low-value leases are recognized as an expense in the income
statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with a maximum term of 12
months are regarded as short-term. Low value assets include IT equipment, office furniture
and other low value machines.

Other shares
Other shares are classified at fair value through other comprehensive income. Changes in
the fair value of other shares are recognized in other comprehensive income under equity in
the fair value reserve taking the tax effect into account and including gains and losses from
sales. The dividends are recognized in the profit or loss statement. Other shares include non-
listed companies, the shareholdings in Pohjolan Voima Oyj (PVO) and Teollisuuden Voima Oyj
(TVO) representing the largest investments.
PVO and its joint venture TVO comprise a private energy generating group owned by Finnish
manufacturing and power companies, to which it supplies energy at cost. Kemira Group has
A series shares in TVO and A, B, C, G, and M series shares in PVO. The shareholdings of PVO's
B series are related to the holdings in TVO. TVO operates two nuclear power plant units in
Olkiluoto in the municipality of Eurajoki, and TVO is also constructing a new nuclear plant unit
in Olkiluoto. Different share series entitle the shareholder to electricity generated by
different power plants. The owners of each share series are responsible for the fixed costs of
the series in question in proportion to the number of the shares, regardless of whether they
use their power/energy share or not, and for variable costs in proportion to the amount of
energy used.
Kemira Oyj’s ownership in the PVO Group, which entitles to electricity from power plants in
regular production is measured at the fair value based on the discounted cash flow resulting
from the difference between the market price of the electricity and the cost price. In
Olkiluoto 3, nuclear power unit belonging to the PVO B2 share series, regular electricity
production had not started by 31 December 2022.The forward electricity price quotations for
the Finnish price area published by the Nordic Electricity Exchange have been used as the
basis for the market price for the electricity for the first five years, and after this, the
development of the prices is based on a fundamental simulation model of the Nordic
electricity market. The impact of inflation in the coming years is taken into account in the
price of the electricity and the cost prices. The cost prices are determined by each share
series. Future cash flows have been discounted based on the estimated useful lifecycles of
the plants related to each share series, and hydro power also includes terminal value. The
discount rate has been calculated using the annually determined average weighted cost of
capital.
The items in the financial statements that include significant accounting
estimates and accounting policies that require judgment
Estimated fair value of shares in the PVO Group
The Group’s shareholding in the unlisted PVO Group is measured at fair value, based on the
discounted cash flow resulting from the difference between the market price of electricity
and the cost price using the valuation model. Developments in the actual fair value may
differ from the estimated value due to factors, such as electricity prices, inflation, the
forecast period, or the discount rate.

In Q3 2022, Kemira signed an agreement to sell its colorants business to US based
ChromaScape, LLC. Revenue of the business in 2021 was approximately EUR 50 million and
67 employees will be transferred to ChromaScape as part of transaction which is expected
to be closed in the first quarter of 2023. The scope includes also one Kemira manufacturing
site at Goose Creek, Bushy Park in South Carolina. Kemira will keep its APAC related
colorants business.
The assets and liabilities related to a sale of the colorants business has been classified as a
disposal group held for sale according to IFRS 5. As a result, t he assets and liabilities related
to the sale of the colorants business are presented in the consolidated balance sheet on
separate lines. The reclassification had an effect on the reported values of balance sheet
items and the expected loss from the sale of the colorants business was EUR 15 million. The
colorants business is part of Kemira's Pulp & Paper segment.
In the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow, the line Other non-cash items contains the loss
of sale of EUR 15 million, a non-monetary item caused by the sale of the colorants business.

Non-current assets held for sale
Non-current assets are classified as assets held for sale when their carrying amount is to
be recovered principally through a sale transaction and a sale transaction and a sale is
considered highly probable. Since the time of classification, the assets have been valued at
the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Depreciation on these assets
d iscontinues at the time of classification. Non-current assets classified as held for sale is
disclosed separately in the balance sheet.

Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costs are determined
on a first-in first-out (FIFO) basis or by using a weighted average cost formula, depending on
the nature of the inventory. The cost of finished goods and work in progress include the
proportion of production overheads at normal capacity. The net realizable value is the sales
price received in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs for completing the
asset and the sales costs.

The Group's accounting policies
Trade receivables, loan receivables, and other current receivables
Trade receivables, loan receivables, and other current receivables are initially recognized at
fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost, taking impairment into account.
These items are subject to a simplified impairment model in accordance with the IFRS 9
standard, where the estimated amount of credit losses is based on the expected credit
losses over their expected life.
The expected credit loss rates for the impairment model vary for trade receivables in EMEA,
Americas and APAC according to age distribution and geographical area. Credit loss rates
are based on sales payment profiles and historical credit losses.
The expected credit losses for trade receivables are recognized using the simplified
impairment model in accordance with IFRS 9. The expected credit losses are calculated by
multiplying the book value of unpaid trade receivables by the expected credit loss rate
according to geographical area. Any overdue trade receivables over 180 days are assessed
based on a specific risk assessment. In addition, an estimate of a credit loss is recognized for
individual trade receivables when there is objective evidence that the receivables will not be
recovered on all the original terms.
Trade receivables, loan receivables and other current receivables do not include a significant
financial component.

The Group's accounting policies
Deferred taxes
Deferred tax is recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising
between the tax bases of the assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the
Consolidated Financial Statements. Deferred tax in the initial recognition of goodwill is
recognized only in cases where goodwill is locally tax deductible. Deferred income tax is
determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by
the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax
asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that a future
taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in
subsidiaries and associates, except for deferred income tax liability where the timing of the
reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the
temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right
to offset the current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and when the deferred income
taxes assets and liabilities relate to the income taxes levied by the same taxation authority

4.5 DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
The Group has several defined benefit pension plans and other employee benefit obligations.
The main defined benefit pension plans are in Finland, Sweden, Germany, and the UK.
Finland
The Group's most significant defined benefit plan is in Finland, through Pension Fund
Neliapila, which takes care of part of some employees' supplementary pension benefits. The
Pension Fund Neliapila covers employees whose employment with Kemira began before
January 1, 1991, meaning that the fund is closed to new employees. Currently the majority of
the members of Pension Fund Neliapila are pensioners. At the end of 2022, the obligations of
Pension Fund Neliapila totaled EUR 156.9 million (203.9) and assets of the plan totaled EUR
235.3 million (277.1).
Pension Fund Neliapila's supplementary benefit includes old-age pensions, disability
pensions, survivors' pensions and funeral grants. The aggregated pension benefit is 66
percent of the pension salary. To qualify for a full pension, an employee must have accrued a
pensionable service of 25 years. The supplementary pension benefit is the difference between
the aggregated and compulsory pension benefits.
Sweden
In Sweden, there is a defined benefit pension plan called the ITP 2 plan for white-collar
employees. To qualify for a full pension, an employee must have a projected period of
pensionable service, from the date of entry until retirement age, of at least 30 years. The
pension arrangements comprise the normal retirement pension, complementary retirement
pensions and a survivors' pension. In addition, Kemira must have credit insurance from PRI
Pensionsgaranti Mutual Insurance Company for the ITP 2 plan pension liability. At the end of
2022, the defined benefit obligations in Sweden totaled EUR 38.3 million (53.7).

The Finnish Pension Fund Neliapila has most of the defined benefit plan’s assets. At the end
of 2022, the Pension Fund Neliapila's assets amounted to EUR 235.3 million (277.1), which
consisted of interest rate investments and other assets of EUR 115.7 million (163.9), shares and
share funds of EUR 75.1 million (87.3), properties of EUR 42.8 million (24.3), and Kemira Oyj's
shares of EUR 1.6 million (1.5). In the Pension Fund Neliapila, the investment position is
managed within an asset-liability matching (ALM) framework that has been developed to
combine long-term investments in line with the obligations under the pension plan. In Pension
Fund Neliapila, a market risk can be considered a significant investment risk. The market risk
arising from cyclical fluctuations of the financial market, is managed by ensuring that the
investment position is sufficiently diversified.

The significant assumptions used in calculating the obligations of the Finnish Pension Fund
Neliapila were as follows: discount rate 3.8% (1.0%), inflation rate 2.6% (2.0%), future salary
increases 2.6% (2.0%), and future pension increases 2.8% (2.3%).
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis is based on keeping other assumptions constant when one
assumption is changed. In practice, this is unlikely to occur and changes in some of the
assumptions may correlate with each other. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined
benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions, the same method has been applied as
when calculating the pension liability recognized within the balance sheet.
If the discount rate would be 0.5 percentage points lower in all of the significant countries, the
defined benefit obligation would increase by EUR 10.5 million (4.5%), if all other assumptions
were held constant.

The Group's accounting policies
Defined benefit pension plans and employee benefits
The Group has different post-employment schemes, including both defined contribution and
defined benefit pension plans in accordance with the local legislation and practices of the
countries in which it operates. Pension plans are generally funded through contributions to
pension insurance companies or a separate pension fund.
A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions
into a separate entity. The Group has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further
contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits
relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. A defined benefit plan is a
pension plan that is not a defined contribution plan.
Typically, defined benefit plans define an amount of pension benefit that an employee will
receive on retirement, usually dependent on one or more factors such as their compensation
level and years of service.
The liability recognized in the balance sheet in respect to the defined benefit pension plans
is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less
the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by
independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the
defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows
using interest rates of high-quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in
which the benefits will be paid, and with their terms to maturity approximating the terms of
the related pension obligation. In countries where there is no deep market in such bonds, the
market rates for government bonds are used.
Actuarial gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial
assumptions are charged or credited to equity in other comprehensive income in the period
in which they arise.
Current service costs are included in the Consolidated Income Statement in the employee
benefit expenses and net interest costs on finance income and finance expense. Past
service costs are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
For defined contribution plans, the Group pays contributions to publicly or privately
administered pension insurance plans on a mandatory, contractual, or voluntary basis. The
Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The
contributions are recognized as employee benefit expenses when they are due. Prepaid
contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in
the future payments is available.
The items in the financial statements that include significant accounting
estimates and accounting policies that require judgment
Defined benefit pension plans
Determining pension liabilities under defined benefit pension plans includes a number of
actuarial assumptions, and significant changes in these assumptions may affect the
amounts of pension liabilities and expenses. Actuarial calculations include assumptions by
the management, such as the discount rate and assumptions of salary increases and the
termination of employment contracts. The pension liability is calculated by independent
actuaries.

Provisions
Provisions for restructuring costs, personnel related costs, environmental obligations, legal
claims, and onerous contracts are recognized 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 a reliable estimate of the amount of
this obligation can be made. A restructuring provision is recognized when there is a detailed
and appropriate plan prepared for it and the implementation of the plan has begun or has

The Group's accounting policies
When a financial asset or financial liability is initially recognized on the trade date, it is
measured at cost, which equals the fair value of the consideration given or received.
Financial Assets
The Group’s financial assets are classified for subsequent measurement as financial assets
at fair value through profit or loss, at amortized cost and at fair value through other
comprehensive income.

Category | Financial instrument
Fair value through profit or loss | Currency forward contracts, currency swaps, interest rate swaps, electricity forwards, electricity futures, electricity options, certificates of deposit and commercial papers
Amortized cost | Non-current loan receivables, cash at bank and in hand, bank deposits, trade receivables and other receivables
Fair value through other comprehensive income | Other investments: shares; derivatives qualifying for hedge accounting (cash flow or fair value hedging)

Financial assets at fair value through income statements
All derivatives are recognized at fair value on the balance sheet. Fair value is the amount for
which an asset could be exchanged or loans paid between knowledgeable, willing parties in
an arm’s length transaction. These derivative contracts to which hedge accounting in
accordance with IFRS 9 is not applied are classified as financial assets at fair value through
profit or loss. In the balance sheet, these derivative contracts are shown under prepaid
expenses and accrued income and accrued expenses and prepaid income. Any gains or
losses arising from changes in fair value are recognized through profit or loss on the
transaction date.
Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets at amortized cost include non-current receivables carried at amortized cost
using the effective interest rate method and accounting for any impairment.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash at bank and in hand, demand deposits and other
short-term, highly liquid investments. Items classified as cash and cash equivalents have a
maximum maturity of three months from the date of purchase. Credit facilities in use are
included in current interest-bearing liabilities.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
The accounting policy of Other shares is described in Notes 3.5. Other shares. The
accounting treatment of change in the fair value of the derivatives qualifying for hedge
accounting is presented in 5.6. Derivatives.
Impairment of financial assets
The Group assesses any impairment losses on its financial instruments on each balance
sheet date. An impairment of a financial asset is recognized in accordance with the
requirements of the expected credit loss model of the IFRS 9 standard. For items measured
at an amortized cost, the amount of the impairment loss equals the difference between the
asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows from the
receivable. This is discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. For
items measured at fair value, the fair value determines the amount of impairment.
Impairment charges are recognized in the income statement.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IFRS) | PART OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2022

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 76
The Group sells certain trade receivables to finance companies within the framework of
limits stipulated in the agreement. The credit risk associated with these sold receivables and
contractual rights to the financial assets in question are transferred from the Group on the
selling date. The related expenses are recognized in the financial expenses.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified as financial liabilities accounted at fair value through profit
or loss, at amortized cost and at fair value through other comprehensive income. Financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include derivatives to which hedge accounting is
not applied, whereas derivatives which are qualified for hedge accounting are booked at fair
value through other comprehensive income.
Other financial liabilities are initially recognized in the balance sheet at the initial value of
received net assets with direct costs deducted. Later, these financial liabilities are measured
at amortized cost, and the difference between the received net assets and amortizations is
recognized as an interest cost over the loan term. Changes in the fair value of loans under
fair value hedge accounting are booked in the income statement together with the changes
in the fair value of derivatives under fair value hedge accounting.
If the terms of a loan measured at amortized cost are modified and the loan is not
derecognized, the gain or loss of the modification is booked in the income statement at the
point of modification and amortized over the life of the modified loan. Profit or loss is equal
to the difference between the present value of the cash flows under the original and
modified terms discounted at the original effective interest rate.

Category | Financial instrument
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss | Currency forward contracts and currency swaps, interest rate swaps, electricity forwards, electricity futures and electricity options
Amortized cost | Current and non-current loans, pension loans, bonds, lease liabilities and trade payables
Financial liabilities at fair value through other comprehensive income | Derivatives qualifying for hedge accounting (cash flow hedging)

The following levels are used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Fair value is determined based on quoted market prices.
Level 2: Fair value is determined with valuation techniques. Fair value refers either to the
value that is observable from the market value of elements of the financial instrument or the
market value of corresponding financial instruments, or to the value that is observable by
using commonly accepted valuation models and techniques if the market value can be
reliably measured with them.
Level 3: Fair value is determined by using valuation techniques, which use inputs that have a
significant effect on the recorded fair value and the inputs are not based on observable
market data. Level 3 mainly includes the shares of Pohjolan Voima Group.

5.5 MANAGEMENT OF FINANCIAL RISKS
Kemira Group Treasury's objective is to ensure sufficient funding in the most cost efficient
way, and to manage financial risks. Approved by the Board of Directors, treasury policy
defines the principles of treasury management. The Board of Directors approves the annual
Treasury plan and the maximum permissible financial risk levels.
Financial risk management aims to protect the Company from unfavorable changes in
financial markets, thereby contributing to safeguarding the Company’s profit performance
and shareholders’ equity and to ensure sufficient sources of finance. Management of financial
risks is centralized in the Group Treasury, which uses for hedging purposes derivative
instruments whose market values and risks can be monitored continuously and reliably.
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign currency transaction risk arises from currency flows, assets, and liabilities
denominated in currencies other than the domestic currency. Transaction risks arise from
cash flows and balance sheet items where changes in exchange rates will have an impact on
earnings and cash flows. Translation risk arises when the currency denominated income and
balance sheet items of group companies located outside the euro area are consolidated into
euro. The transaction risk is hedged mainly using foreign currency forwards.
The Group's most significant transaction currency risks arise from the Chinese renminbi, the
Canadian dollar, the U.S. dollar and Swedish krona. At the end of the year, the Chinese
renminbi's denominated exchange rate risk against the euro had an equivalent value of
approximately EUR 86 million (67), the average hedging rate and hedging ratio being 7.28 and
68% (36%), respectively. The Canadian dollar denominated exchange rate risk was
approximately EUR 56 million (26), the average hedging rate and hedging ratio being 1.41 and
52% (51%), respectively. The U.S. dollar denominated exchange rate risk was approximately
EUR 54 million (64), the average hedging rate and hedging ratio being 1.04 and 68% (53%),
respectively. The denominated exchange rate risk of the Swedish krona against the euro had
an equivalent value of approximately EUR 36 million (31), the average hedging rate and hedging
ratio being 10.79 and 64% (62%), respectively.
In addition, Kemira is exposed to smaller transaction risks against the euro mainly in relation
to the Korean won, Polish zloty, the Norwegian krona and the Danish krona and against US
dollar mainly in relation to the Canadian dollar and the Brazilian real with the annual exposure
in those currencies being approximately EUR 131 million.

1) Based on a 12-month foreign currency operative cash flow forecast.
At the end of 2022, the foreign currency operative cash flow forecast for 2023 was EUR 416
million of which 58% was hedged (54%). The hedge ratio is monitored daily. A minimum of 40%
and a maximum of 100% of the forecast flow must always be hedged according to the treasury
policy. A 10 percent strengthening of the euro against the Swedish krona, based on the
exchange rates as of December 31, 2021 and without hedging, would increase EBITDA
approximately EUR 4 million, and a 10 percent strengthening of the euro against the Chinese
renmimbi without hedging would increase EBITDA approximately EUR 9 million. On the other
hand, a 10 percent strengthening of the euro against the Canadian Dollar and the US Dollar
without hedging would cause EUR 6 and 5 million negative impact to EBITDA, respectively. A
corresponding decrease in the exchange rates would have approximately an equal opposite
impact.
On the balance sheet date, the market value of currency derivatives included in cash flow
hedge accounting was EUR 0.3 million (-1.4). Cash flow hedge accounting deals have been
done to hedge highly probable currency flows. In 2022, no ineffectiveness in derivatives under
hedge accounting was recognized in the Income statement (-).

The most significant translation risk currencies are the US dollar, the Canadian dollar, the
Swedish krona and the Chinese renminbi.
Kemira's main equity items denominated in foreign currencies are in the Canadian dollar, the
Swedish krona and US dollar. The objective is to hedge the balance sheet risk by maintaining a
balance between foreign currency denominated liabilities and assets, currency by currency. In
hedging the net investment in its units abroad, Kemira monitors the equity ratio. Long-term
loans and currency derivatives can be used for hedging net investments in foreign
subsidiaries. These hedges do not apply to hedge accounting. Loans in US dollars have been
granted to some foreign subsidiaries and currency differences have been included in foreign
currency translation differences.
Interest rate risk
Kemira is exposed to interest rate risks through interest-bearing loans and derivatives.
Movements in interest rates creates re-pricing and price risks generating fluctuation in cash
flows and fair val ues of loans and derivatives . A total of 83% (80%) of the Group’s entire net
debt portfolio including lease liabilities was fixed at the end of 2022. The net financing cost of
the Group w as 4.2% (3.4%). The net financing cost is attained by dividing yearly net interest
and other financing expenses, excluding exchange rate differences and dividends by the
average interest bearing net debt figure for the corresponding period. The most significant
impact on the net financing cost arises from variation in the interest rate levels of the euro,
the US dollar and the Chinese renminbi.
In accordance with treasury policy, the Group’s interest rate risk is measured with the
duration which describes the average repricing moment of the loan portfolio excluding lease
liabilities. The duration must be in the range of 6–60 months. The Kemira Group Treasury
manages duration by borrowing with fixed and floating rate loans in addition to the interest
rate derivatives. The duration of the Group’s interest-bearing loan portfolio excluding lease
liabilities was 22 months at the end of 2022 (29).
The table below shows the time for interest rate fixing of the loan portfolio.

1) Excluding lease liabilities
On the balance sheet date, the average interest rate of the loan portfolio was approximately
2.4% (1.7%). If interest rates rose by one percentage point on January 1, 2023, the resulting
interest expenses before taxes incurred by the Group over the next 12 months would increase
by approximately EUR 0.3 million (0.7). Consequen tly, a decrease of one percentage point
would decrease interest expenses by EUR 0.3 million. During 2023, Kemira will reprice 21%
(32%) of the Group's net debt portfolio. On the balance sheet date, the Group had no
outstanding interest rate derivatives.

Electricity price risk
The price of electricity varies greatly according to the market situation. Kemira Group takes
hedging measures with respect to its electricity purchases in order to even out its raw
material costs. In line with its hedging policy, the Group hedges its existing sales agreements
in such a way that the hedges cover the commitments made. The company primarily uses
electricity derivatives as hedging instruments. Regional price risks in Finland and Sweden are
hedged. The outstanding electricity derivatives are treated in accordance with cash flow
hedge accounting. The forecast for physical deliveries of the underlying assets, or purchases,
are not recorded until the delivery period. A +/- 10% change in the market price of electricity
hedging contracts outstanding at year end would impact the valuation of these contracts EUR
+/- 11.9 million (+/- 7.7). Th is impact would be in equity.
In addition to the electricity derivatives, the Group manages the price risk of electricity by
entering into long-term electricity sourcing agreements. The Group also has shares of 5% of
Pohjolan Voima Oy (PVO) and 1% share of Teollisuuden Voima Oy. More information on the
shares ownership can be found in Note 3.5.
Credit risk
The Group is exposed to credit risks through commercial accounts receivables, as bank
account balances, deposits, short-term investments, and derivatives.
The Group’s treasury policy defines the credit rating requirements for the counterparties of
investment activities and derivative agreements as well as the related investment policy. The
Group seeks to minimize its counterparty risk by dealing solely with counterparties that are
financial institutions with a solid credit rating, as well as by spreading agreements among
them. Counterparty risk is being followed on a regular basis.
The counterparty risk in treasury operations is due to the fact that a contractual party to a
financing transaction is not necessarily able to fulfill its contractual obligations. Risks are
mainly related to investment activities and the counterparty risks associated with derivative
contracts.
The Group Treasury approves the new banking relationships of subsidiaries. Financial
institution counterparties, used by the Group Treasury, have a credit rating of at least an
investment grade based on Standard & Poor’s credit rating information. The maximum risk
assignable to the Group’s financial institution counterparties on the balance sheet date
amounted to EUR 342.5 million (174.9). Kemira monitors its counterparty risk on a monthly
basis by defining the maximum risk associated with each counterparty based on the market
value of receivables. Kemira has defined an approved limit for each financial institution.
No material changes related to Group's credit risk were associated with financing
transactions in the year 2022 and these transactions did not result in credit losses during the
financial year.
Kemira has a group-wide credit policy related to commercial activities. According to the
policy, each customer has a predefined risk category and credit limit. These are constantly
monitored. Based on the customer evaluation, Kemira decides the applicable payment terms
to minimize credit risks. Pre-approved payment terms have been defined at the group level. If
necessary, securities and documentary credit, such as letters of credit, are applied. The group
does not have any significant credit risk concentrations due to its extensive customer base
across the world. The credit losses related to trade receivables are described in Note 4.2.
In the USA, Kemira has an accounts receivable purchase facility wo rth USD 75 million,
en abling Group companies in the USA to sell certain account receivables to the counterpar ty.
The credit risk of the accounts receivables is transferred to the financial institutions and
95.5% of the receivables transferred are derecognized from the balance sheet. The amount of
outstanding receivables transferred, which also reflects the fair value of the receivables
before the transfer was EUR 60.3 million (48.2) on December 31, 2022. The amounts
recognized in the balance sheet are EUR 4.3 million (2.1) in assets and EUR 1.4 million (0.1) in
liabilities.

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 80
Liquidity and refinancing risks
Kemira's liquidity is secured with cash and cash equivalents, account overdrafts and a
revolving credit facility. At the end of 2022, the Group’s cash and cash equivalents stood at
EUR 250.6 million (142.4), of which cash in bank accounts accounted for EUR 245.3 million
(138.7) and bank deposits EUR 5.3 million (3.7). In addition, the Group has a revolving credit
facility of EUR 400 milli on linked to sustainability targets whic h will mature on April 17, 2026. At
the turn of the year 2021/2022, the revolving credit facility was undrawn.
The Group has a EUR 600 million domestic commercial paper program enabling it to issue
commercial papers with a maximum maturity of one year. At the end of 2022, the Group had
EUR 30 million of commercial papers outstanding on the market (-).
Kemira manages its refinancing risk with a diversified loan portfolio. Long-term financing
consists of bonds and bilateral loan agreements with several financial institutions. In addition,
the Group had leasing liabilities in accordance with the IFRS 16 standard of EUR 148.9 million
(136.8) at the end of the year.
According to Group treasury policy, the Group must have committed credit facilities to cover
planned funding needs, the current portion of long term debt, commercial paper borrowings,
and other uncommitted short-term loans in the next 12 months. The average maturity of
outstanding loans excluding lease liabilities may temporarily be under the 3-year minimum
target. The average maturity of debt excluding lease liabilities at the end of 2022 was 3.2 years
(3.0).

The Group's accounting policies
Derivatives
The fair values of currency, interest rate, and commodity derivatives, as well as publicly
traded shares are based on prices quoted in active markets on the balance sheet date. The
value of other financial instruments measured at fair value is determined on the basis of
valuation models using information available in the financial market.
All the derivatives are measured at their fair values on the balance sheet date. Changes in
the value of forward contracts are calculated by measuring the contracts against the
forward exchange rates on the balance sheet date and comparing them with the counter
values calculated through the forward exchange rates on the date of entry into the forward
contracts. The fair value of interest rate derivatives is determined using the market value of
similar instruments on the balance sheet date. Other derivatives are measured at the market
price on the balance sheet date.
Derivative assets maturing during the following 12 months are presented in the balance
sheet as part of line item Trade receivables and other receivables whereas derivatives with a
maturity of over 12 months are posted to Other financial assets under Non-current assets .
Derivative liabilities maturing under 12 months are presented in the balance sheet as part of
line item Trade payables and other liabilities where as fair value of derivatives with maturity
after 12 months are posted under Non-current liabilities to Other financial liabilities.
Hedge accounting
Hedge accounting is applied according to IFRS 9. This refers to a method of accounting
aimed at allocating one or more hedging instruments in such a way that their fair value
offsets, in full or in part, the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item.
Hedged items must be highly probable. The Group applies hedge accounting for hedging
interest rate risk, currency risk, commodity risk, and fair value if interest rate swaps,
electricity derivatives and foreign exchange derivatives meet hedge accounting criteria.
Hedge effectiveness is monitored as required by IFRS 9. Effectiveness refers to the capacity
of a hedging instrument to offset changes in the fair value of the hedged item or cash flows
from a hedged transaction, which are due to the realization of the risk being hedged. A
hedging relationship is considered to be highly effective when the change in the fair value of
the hedging instrument offsets changes in the cash flows attributable to the hedged items.
Hedge effectiveness is assessed prospectively. Hedge effectiveness testing is repeated on
each balance sheet date.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the criteria for hedge accounting are no longer
fulfilled. Gains or losses recognized in other comprehensive income and presented under
equity are derecognized and transferred immediately in the income statement, if the hedged
item is sold or falls due. However, gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of
those derivatives not fulfilling the hedge accounting criteria are recognized directly in the
income statement.
At the inception of a hedge, the Group documents the existence of the economic
relationship of the hedged item and hedging instrument, including the identification of the
hedging instrument, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged, the
objectives of risk management and the strategy for undertaking hedging, as well as the
description of how hedge effectiveness is assessed.
Cash flow hedging
Cash flow hedging is used to hedge against variability in cash flows attributable to a
particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability in the balance sheet or a highly
probable forecast transaction. Currency, interest rate, and commodity derivatives are used
as hedging instruments in cash flow hedging. Cash flow hedge accounting, specified in IFRS
9, is applied by the Group to selected hedging items only. Changes in the fair value of
derivative instruments associated with cash flow hedge are recognized in other
comprehensive income (including the tax effect) and presented under equity, providing that
they fulfill the criteria set for hedge accounting and are based on effective hedging. The
ineffective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized under financial
items in the income statement. Derivatives not fulfilling the hedge accounting criteria are
recognized in financial items through profit or loss.

KEMIRA OYJ FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (FAS) | PART OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2022

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 91
Notes to the parent company financial statements
1. THE PARENT COMPANY'S ACCOUNTING POLICIES FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
BASIS OF PREPARATION
The parent company’s financial statements have been
prepared in compliance with the relevant acts and
regulations in force in Finland (FAS). Kemira Group’s financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with the
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), and the
parent company applies the Group’s accounting policies
whenever it has been possible according to FAS.
COMPARABILITY OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Kemira implemented a new business model in its APAC
companies on January 1, 2022. This has an effect on the
comparability of the figures. In the new business model
Kemira Oyj acts as a principal company which means that a
part of sales of products and the external purchase of raw
materials are done in the name of Kemira Oyj. The
subsidiaries act as contact manufacturer/toll manufacturer
and/or Limited Risk Distributor companies and they receive
CMA/tolling and/or sales compensation from these activities.
In connection to the business conversion Kemira Oyj agreed
to pay a compensation related to the transferred business
according to the business conversion agreement with Kemira
Asia Ltd and Kemira Hong Kong.
VALUATION AND ALLOCATION PRINCIPLES
VALUATION OF NON-CURRENT ASSETS
Planned depreciation and any impairment losses have been
deducted from the acquisition cost of the intangible and
tangible assets entered in the balance sheet. The acquisition
cost includes the variable costs of acquisition and
manufacturing. Government grants received are recognized
as a deduction from the carrying amount of property, plant,
and equipment. Planned depreciation is calculated on a
straight-line basis over the estimated intangible and tangible
asset's useful life. Depreciation starts from the month of
commencement of use.
Depreciation periods:
Other intangible assets 5–10 years
Buildings and constructions 20–40 years
Machinery and equipment 3–15 years
Shares of non-current assets are valued at their acquisition
cost or less impairment.
VALUATION OF INVENTORY
Inventories are stated at cost or at the lower of replacement
cost or probable selling price. In addition to variable costs,
the cost of inventories includes a portion of the fixed costs of
acquisition and manufacturing. The acquisition cost of the
raw material inventory are determined using a weighted
average cost formula. The acquisition cost of finished goods
and work in progress include the proportion of production
overheads at normal capacity.
VALUATION OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The financial risk management of Kemira Group is
concentrated in Kemira Oyj, which enters into currency,
interest rate and electricity derivatives with third parties.
Changes in the fair value of currency derivatives that are
applicable for hedge accounting in the Group, but not in the
parent company (as underlying hedged items are with group
companies) are entered in to the profit and loss statement.
Also, changes in the fair value of other currency derivatives
not qualifying for hedge accounting in the Group, hedging
commercial purchases or sales or financial items in foreign
currencies are entered in the profit and loss. Changes in the
fair value of interest rate derivatives are recorded as financial
items in both hedge accounting and non-hedge accounting.
The fair value of Electricity Derivatives hedging the parent
company's electricity purchases and qualifying for hedge
accounting is posted to the hedging reserve under equity as
well as the change in the fair value of currency derivatives
that qualify for hedge accounting in the parent company.
These currency derivatives are hedging estimated currency
flows in Kemira Oyj for the next 12-month period. When the
hedging instrument is maturing or the hedging relationship is
discontinued due to inefficiency, the hedging reserve is
adjusted by the value of the derivative by booking the value in
the Income Statement.
The valuation of Fair value derivative instruments is done
according to the Finnish Accounting Act Chapter 5 Section
2a.
The valuation methods of derivative instruments are
described in Notes 5.4 and 5.6 in the Consolidated Financial
Statements.

KEMIRA OYJ FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (FAS) | PART OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2022

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 92
Defining the fair value of financial assets and liabilities is
described in Group Note 5.4. Financial Risk management
principles is illustrated in Group note 5.5. Hedge accounting
principles and valuation of derivative instrument are
described in Group note 5.6.
Reductions in the capital of other non-current loans as well
as loan transaction costs have been capitalized in a manner
allowed by the Finnish Accounting Act in the parent
company's financial statement. The non-expensed portion of
these expenses, EUR 2.6 million (2.7), is included in the
balance sheet.
OBLIGATORY PROVISIONS
Obligatory provisions are recognized from pensions,
personnel-related costs, environmental, and restructuring
obligations.
REVENUE
Kemira Oyj's revenue consists mainly of revenues from the
sale of goods and services. Revenue also includes
intercompany service charges on a gross basis.
PENSION ARRANGEMENTS
The company’s statutory pensions are handled by pension
insurance companies and supplemental pensions mainly by
Kemira’s own pension fund. Pension costs consist of
payments to pension insurance companies and possible
contributions to the pension fund and are recognized in the
income statement.
SHARE-BASED INCENTIVE PLANS
The treatment of share-based plans is described in the
Group’s accounting policies. In the parent company, the cash
proportion of share-based incentive plans is recognized as an
expense in the performance year, and the share proportion is
recognized in the year the shares are given using the average
share price.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
In day-to-day bookkeeping, foreign currency transactions are
translated into their functional currency at the exchange
rates quoted on the transaction date. In the Financial
Statements, foreign currency denominated receivables and
liabilities are measured at the exchange rates quoted on the
balance sheet date. Business-related exchange rate
differences and business related foreign currency exchange
rate hedges are treated as sales and purchase adjustments.
Any foreign exchange gains and losses related to financial
items and respective hedging instruments are booked into
financial income and expenses.
DEFERRED TAXES
Deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognized for temporary
differences between tax and financial statements using the
tax rate for the year following as determined on the balance
sheet date. The balance sheet includes the deferred tax
liability in its entirety and the deferred tax asset at the
estimated probable amount as assessed by the
management. The efficient part of changes in the value of the
electricity and currency derivatives qualifying for hedge
accounting is recorded as a fair value reserve less deferred
taxes.
LEASE
Lease payments are treated as rental expenses.
CASH FLOW STATEMENT
The parent company’s cash flow statement has been
prepared in accordance with the general guidelines on cash
flow by the Finnish Board of Accounting.

REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT
OPINION
We have audited the financial statements of Kemira Oyj (business identity code 0109823-0) for
the year ended 31 December 2022. The financial statements comprise the consolidated
balance sheet, income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of
changes in equity, statement of cash flows and notes, including a summary of significant
accounting policies, 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 as well as its financial performance and its 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.
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 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 non-audit 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 non-audit services that we
have provided have been disclosed in note 2.2 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.
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.
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of
the financial statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters.
Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements. The results of
our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below,
provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying financial statements.
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.

AUDITOR'S REPORT

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 106

Key audit matter | How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
Valuation of goodwill The accounting principles and disclosures concerning goodwill are disclosed in Note 3.1. Valuation of goodwill was a key audit matter because •the assessment process is judgmental, •it is based on assumptions relating to market or economic conditions extending to the future, and •because of the significance of the goodwill to the financial statements. As of balance sheet date 31 December 2022, the value of goodwill amounted to 511 million euro representing 14 % of the total assets and 30 % of the total equity. The valuation of goodwill is based on management’s estimate about the value-in-use calculations of the cash generating units. There are number of underlying assumptions used to determine the value-in-use, including the revenue growth, EBITDA and discount rate applied on net cash-flows. Estimated value-in-use may vary significantly when the underlying assumptions are changed and the changes in above-mentioned individual assumptions may result in an impairment of goodwill. | Our audit procedures regarding the valuation of goodwill included involving EY valuation specialists to assist us in evaluating methodologies, impairment calculations and underlying assumptions applied by the management in the impairment testing. In evaluation of methodologies, we compared the principles applied by the management in the impairment tests to the requirements set in IAS 36 Impairment of assets standard and ensured the mathematical accuracy of the impairment calculations. The key assumptions applied by the management in impairment tests were compared to •approved budgets and long-term forecasts, •information available in external sources, as well as •our independently calculated industry averages such as weighted average cost of capital used in discounting the cashflows. In addition, we compared the sum of discounted cash flows in impairment tests to Kemira’s market capitalization. We also assessed the sufficiency and appropriateness of the disclosures given in respect of goodwill and its sensitivity.

Key audit matter | How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
Fair value measurement of other shares The accounting principles and disclosures concerning other shares are disclosed in Note 3.5. Fair value measurement of other shares was a key audit matter because •the value of other shares is material to the financial statements, and because •the fair value assessment process requires significant management judgment. As of balance sheet date 31 December 2022, the value of PVO / TVO shares included in other shares amounted to 381 million euro representing 10 % of the total assets and 23 % of the total equity. PVO / TVO shares represent majority of the balance sheet value of other shares. In determining the fair value of PVO / TVO shares, the management must make among other things an assessment regarding •future electricity production cost for PVO and TVO, •future electricity market prices applicable for Finland, and •discount rate applied on discounting the cashflows. Fair values of PVO and TVO shares may vary significantly when above-mentioned assumptions are changed. Fair value measurement of other shares was determined to be a key audit matter and a significant risk of material misstatement referred to in EU Regulation No 537/2014, point (c) of Article 10 (2). | Our audit procedures regarding the fair values of other shares to address the risk of material misstatement included involving EY valuation specialists to assist us in evaluating appropriateness of methodologies, fair value calculations and underlying assumptions applied by the management. The key assumptions made by the management were compared to •estimates of future electricity production costs available on external sources, •estimates of future electricity market prices in Finland available on external sources, and •our independently calculated discount rate applicable for discounting of expected cashflows. In addition, we assessed the overall reasonableness of management’s judgments. We also assessed the sufficiency and appropriateness of the disclosures regarding the other shares.

AUDITOR'S REPORT

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 107
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
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) 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 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 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance on 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 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

AUDITOR'S REPORT

KEMIRA 2022 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 108
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 21 March 2019 and our
appointment represents a total period of uninterrupted engagement of four 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 and 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 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.
OTHER OPINIONS ON ASSIGNMENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
We support that the financial statements should be adopted. The proposal by the Board of
Directors regarding the use of the profit shown on the balance sheet is in compliance with the
Limited Liability Companies Act. We support that the Board of Directors of the parent
company and the Chief Executive Officer should be discharged from liability for the financial
period audited by us.

Group key figures
Kemira provides certain financial performance measures (alternative performance measures),
which are not defined by IFRS. Kemira believes that alternative performance measures
followed by capital markets and Kemira management, such as organic growth*, EBITDA,
operative EBITDA, cash flow after investing activities as well as gearing, provide useful
information about Kemira’s comparable business performance and financial position.
Selected alternative performance measures are also used as performance criteria concerning
remuneration.
Kemira’s alternative performance measures should not be viewed in isolation to the
equivalent IFRS measures and alternative performance measures should be read in
conjunction with the most directly comparable IFRS measures. Definitions of the alternative
performance measures can be found in the Definitions of the key figures in these Financial
Statements, as well as at www.kemira.com > Investors > Financial information.
Kemira adopted the IFRS 16 Leases standard on January 1, 2019. The comparative figures were
not restated on the date of transition to IFRS 16. In 2019, the key figures (except revenue and
capital expenditure) of the Income Statements, Balance Sheet and cash flow have been
impacted by the adoption of IFRS 16.
* Revenue growth in local currencies, excluding acquisitions and divestments.

share issue, if the company has a weighty financial reason to do so, such as financing or
implementing mergers and acquisitions, developing the capital structure of the company,
improving the liquidity of the company’s shares or if this is justified for the payment of the
annual fee payable to the members of the Board of Directors or implementing the
company’s share-based incentive plans. The directed share issue may be carried out
without consideration only in connection with the implementation of the company’s
share-based incentive plan. The subscription price of new shares shall be recorded to the
invested unrestricted equity reserves. The consideration payable for company's own
shares shall be recorded to the invested unrestricted equity reserves. The Board of
Directors will decide upon other terms related to the share issues. The share issue
authorization is valid until May 31, 2023. The share issue authorization has been used and

in connection with the remuneration.
