Honkarakenne Group's revenue (net sales) amounted to EUR 37.2 million (2024: EUR 36.7 million and in 2023: EUR 46.3 million). The Group's operating profit amounted to EUR -4.0 (-2.4; -0.1) million, profit before taxes to EUR -4.4 (-2.6; -0.3) million and earnings per share to EUR -0.70 (-0.37; 0.04).
The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that no dividend or repayment of capital be paid for the financial year that ended on 31 December 2025 (2024: no dividend or repayment of capital).
Business ReviewThe group's operating environment was challenging throughout the year despite signs of a gradual recovery. The Group's net sales for the financial were nearly on par with the previous year and amounted to EUR 37.2 (36.7) million. Compared with the corresponding period of the previous year, revenue in Finland increased by 7 per cent and in exports decreased by -13 per cent. Net sales growth in Finland mainly came from leisure deliveries. The full-year decrease in exports was largely due to lower net sales in Central Asia.
The Group's order book grew 12 percent short of the previous year's level and was EUR 24.8 million (22.2).
Revenue distribution | Jan-Dec/2025 | Jan-Dec/2024 |
Finland | 75% | 71% |
Exports | 25% | 29% |
Total | 100% | 100% |
Revenue, EUR million | Jan-Dec/2025 | Jan-Dec/2024 | Change |
Finland | 28.0 | 26.2 | +7% |
Exports | 9.2 | 10.5 | -13% |
Total | 37.2 | 36.7 | +1% |
Finland also includes billet sales and the sale of process by-products for recycling. Exports include all other countries except Finland.
In Finland, net sales were 7% higher than in the previous year and amounted to EUR 28.0 million (26.2). The growth was generated in the consumer business, specifically from an increase in leisure
deliveries. The delivery volumes and accumulated net sales for detached houses remained at a moderate level, with little evidence of recovery or growth in these areas.
For the full year, new orders received by the consumer business were lower than in the comparison period, despite demand and an increase in the number of quotations. In the project business, growth and new openings were gained, particularly in the company's larger MultiStorey concept multistory construction projects. Here, for example, apartment building construction starts are expected to commence in the upcoming fiscal year.
The company sees a pickup in domestic demand and a slight turnaround in new construction in a more favorable direction. New orders are expected to rise to a higher level this year for the project business, leisure, and partly also for detached house construction. In some cases, final decisions on the start of construction are delayed, and for larger projects, they are made through binding reservations. In the uncertain economic situation, the starts may still be postponed.
Honka has extensively renewed detached houses, holiday homes, as well as cabin and sauna collections to meet current demand and the latest construction trends.
In exports, net sales were 13% lower than in the corresponding period of the previous year at EUR
9.2 million (10.5). The decline in net sales is a result of a weak order book at the end of the previous year and the postponement of December export deliveries to early 2026. In addition, discussions about tariffs, which increased uncertainty during the review year, slowed down the recovery of market areas.
New orders received for exports were at a higher level than in the comparison year. New project orders were received in the European B2B business, including a hotel project utilizing Honka's new MultiStorey construction concept, as well as a floating surf center, Floating Wave to be built from non-settling CLT logs.
During a sales promotion trip to Central Asia, Honkarakenne signed a cooperation agreement in Uzbekistan for the continued development of the Green Hills Premium resort and the Santa Claus amusement park. The agreement is for five years and worth approximately EUR 15 million. The first house deliveries in the agreement's order book, approximately EUR 0.6 million, are scheduled for early 2026. In addition, Honkarakenne signed Memoranda of Understanding in Kazakhstan for ecological wood houses in the Burabay resort area and the TOR'RE Ltd.'s village area.
At the Rebuild Ukraine 2025 Forum, Honkarakenne signed a Memorandum of Understanding and Strategic Cooperation with the Kyiv Regional Military Administration and Borodyanka Village Council, which aims to initiate the reconstruction of the Borodyanka Gymnasium No.1 with a boarding school as a pilot project. The project's implementation is dependent on the start of reconstruction and the financing of the overall project.
Overall, demand for exports has grown, and there are more initiatives for projects of various sizes. In the company's view, there is still uncertainty as to when demand will materialize and lead to new orders and, finally, deliveries. Uncertainty about the operating environment outlook, uncertainty caused by tariffs, and weakening exchange rates may weaken and curb increased demand and expected export growth.
Financial Position, Result, and Key FiguresThe Group's operating result for the financial year was EUR -4.0 million (-2.4) and profit before taxes was EUR -4.4 (-2.6) million. Adjusted operating result was EUR -3.9 million (-2.3) and adjusted result before taxes was EUR -4.3 million (-2.6).
Non-recurring adjustment items for the review year include EUR 0.1 million in costs from terminations resulting from change negotiations. In the comparison year, the expenses related to the closure of the representative office in China amounted to EUR 0.1 million.
The weaker profitability trend was influenced by lower revenue growth from exports and the Asian regions compared to the corresponding period, as well as a stronger focus on smaller domestic leisure deliveries. The company made significant investments in marketing, product development, and other areas. The introduction of the new production line and the finalization of the line, as well as the low overall production volumes, increased production costs higher than expected. During the review period, personnel costs were adjusted through layoffs.

Honkarakenne reports in accordance with the European Securities and Markets Authority's (ESMA) recommendation on alternative key figures (sometimes also called alternative performance measures). An alternative key figure is a financial key figure other than a financial key figure specified or designated in IFRS. The term 'adjusted' is therefore used instead of the previous term 'excluding non-recurring items'. The company classifies significant transactions regarded as affecting the comparison between reporting periods as adjustment items. These include, but are not limited to, significant restructuring costs, significant impairment losses or reversals, significant gains, and losses on disposals of assets, or other significant income or expenses that differ from ordinary activities.
The Group's key figures and their calculation formulas are presented in Note 33.
Order BookThe Group's order book was 12% higher than last year and amounted to EUR 24.8 million (22.2). Order book refers to orders with a delivery date within the next 24 months. Some orders may have a financing or building permit condition.
Financing and LiquidityAt the end of 2025, Honkarakenne's financial position was good.
The Group's equity ratio was 53.1% (59.7). Gearing was 10.4% (-3.5). The Group's net financial liabilities amounted to EUR +1.0 million (-0.5). The Group's liquid assets including other financial assets were EUR 2.5 million (5.0).
At the time of the financial statements, the parent company had EUR 1.5 million (1.9) remaining in financial institution loans. The EUR 1.7 million investment loan raised in the comparison year financed the non-settling CLT log production line commissioned at the Karstula factory at the beginning of the year. The Group's other financial liabilities relate to leasing and lease obligations, which, according to IFRS 16, are presented in current and non-current interest-bearing financial liabilities.
In addition, the Group has a EUR 3.0 million (3.0) overdraft facility for working capital financing, which was not in use at the time of the financial statements. Honkarakenne manages its seasonal liquidity risk with an overdraft limit. With long-term financing loans, the company secures long-term strategic business and investment commitments.
InvestmentsThe Group's gross investments in 2025 amounted to EUR 0.9 million (1.4), excluding right-of-use assets in accordance with the IFRS 16 standard and investment grants received.
Investments mainly relate to the replacement investment in the non-settling CLT log production line at the Karstula factory. In addition, at the beginning of the comparison period, the installation of the replacement investment for the gluer and laminated timber plane at the Karstula factory, as well as the finalization of the line's commissioning, were carried out. A EUR 0.6 million investment grant decision has been received from the Central Finland ELY Centre for the replacement investment in the non-set-tling CLT log production line, of which a EUR 0.2 million advance payment was received in the comparison period. In addition, the Group had individual system investments in the Customer 360 project.
Research and DevelopmentThe International Building Concepts development project ended at the close of the review year. The project resulted in, for example, the Honka MultiStorey construction concept, the Honka Attached Houses concept, and the Honka Public Buildings concept. The latter two were launched specifically in international markets during the second half of 2025. The International Building Concepts aim for growth in export markets with larger mass timber buildings. The International Building Concepts development project has received NextGenerationEU funding from the European Union through Finland's Sustainable Growth Program.
During the financial year, a new fourth-generation non-settling CLT log, Honka Fusion+, was developed and launched to the market in the spring, with production starting in early autumn. Honka Fusion+ CLT log is more environmentally friendly, natural-looking and technically efficient, and it can be considered a design log due to its minimalist appearance, for example, based on the narrow joint groove. The new log differs from its predecessors in having a wider, vertical central lamella. The new log further improves
the stability and strength of log walls and is better-suited for large public log buildings. The new Honka Fusion+ CLT log has patent pending.
Honka's interior design concepts and related new product solutions were developed during the financial year. The new concepts and products were published as part of the Honka Look Book concept brochure during the spring. In addition, a new Woodism® design concept and entity were developed, combining modern architecture, woodforward interior design, Honka's design log, healthy living, and new products into a comprehensive living experience and timelessly stylish modern detached house and holiday villa models. Woodism® will be launched on the international and Finnish markets in early 2026.
In addition, the development of the Honka Healthy House™ concept was continued, and the concept was introduced to international markets early in the year.
The aim of Honka's development projects is to increase the use of wood in construction to promote climate targets. Wood is a renewable raw material and wood construction is part of sustainable use of forests
The Group's R&D costs for the financial year were EUR 0.8 million (0.5), representing 2.3% (1.5) of net sales.
The Group has not capitalised development costs during the financial period.
Major Operational RisksThe risks and uncertainties of Honkarakenne relate to negative changes in the operating environment of the Group and its customers, increased costs of raw materials and components, their availability, and the functioning of the overall supply chains. If demand falls from the current level in the operating environment and costs remain high, it may have significant effects on the Group's earnings development, costs of financing and its availability.
The economic uncertainty in the Group's operating environment is negatively reflected in business and consumer confidence. Economic risks continue to be driven by consumer confidence and employment concerns, inflation, interest rates and availability of financing.
The uncertainty of the military aggression initiated by Russia and all its effects on business are difficult to assess. Replacing the order book lost in the Russian and Ukrainian market area with other export markets may be prolonged or uncertain in the current global market situation. If the war is further prolonged or escalates, or if the instability in the Middle East spreads to a wider war, this could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, financial position and results of operations.
The valuation of items in the balance sheet is based on the management's current estimates. Any changes to these estimates may affect the company's financial performance.
EnvironmentEco-friendliness, longevity and energy efficiency are the strengths of log house construction. As a building material, renewable wood is an ecologically sustainable choice. As wood grows, it binds carbon dioxide, which is stored in the walls of a solid wood house for centuries. At the same time, as the new forest grows, it binds more carbon dioxide, which slows down climate change. For responsible consumers, choosing wood as a material for a house is an obvious way to take future generations into account.
Honkarakenne takes account of the environment by carefully utilising the wood raw material, saving energy, recycling waste and using recyclabes. In its operating policy, Honkarakenne is committed to sustainable forestry through the traceability of wood (PEFC), and wood is not purchased from areas covered by conservation programmes.
The new stricter energy regulations also require new log products, which have been and will continue to be developed at Honka. In many ways, the factory's operations aim for the best environmental outcome. Investments in research and development make it possible to introduce new environmentally friendly production technologies. ETA approval and thus the right to CE marking are part of ensuring the high-quality and environmentally friendly operation of Honkarakenne.
Environmental aspects are implemented at Honkarakenne as efficient production operations. Careful utilisation of raw materials, energy saving, utilisation of by-products and recycling of waste for recovery are part of responsible environmental activities. Honkarakenne uses low-quality sawn timber from production in its packaging, and wooden recyclable packaging materials are stamped in accordance with the EU standard. Some of the cut-off, secondquality and waste timber is used chipped for energy production. Honkarakenne's cutter chips are delivered for further utilisation as bedding for agricultural needs, and the surplus log chips generated in production are processed into chip wool.
Honkarakenne sorts and pre-processes packaging plastic films and plastic-based binding materials. Recycled materials are delivered for further processing. Other waste is sorted at the factories by variety and delivered for recycling or post-storage. Waste transport agreements have been concluded with regional waste management companies.
The associated company Puulaakson Energia Oy produces all the thermal energy required in the Karstula factory. It also supplies thermal energy to the heating network of the municipality of
Karstula. The power plant uses the by-products from the Karstula factory, such as bark, sawdust and dry chips, as fuel. Honkarakenne's holding in the company is 25.9%.
Strategy 2025-2028 and SustainabilityHonkarakenne's strategy for 2022-2024 focused on internationalization, customer experience, and sustainability. Early in the year, the Group refined the goals of its strategy, which extended to the end of 2024, to better align with changes in the operating environment.
Through the strategy, Honkarakenne's position as Finland's largest exporter of wooden buildings will be strengthened. With the export and customer experience strategy, the Group aims for controlled growth in net sales during the strategy period, with the focus on profitability. The performance targets are based on process efficiency, conceptualization, and management, which also improve the customer and employee experience.
Honkarakenne Group's vision is to offer truly the best living. The Group's mission is to improve the quality of people's lives and housing.
Honkarakenne's strategic objectives for the 2025-2028 period are:
Strengthening customer experience
Effectiveness in everything
Renewing the Honka spirit
Managed international operations
To implement the strategy, the Group's extended executive group refines development projects and focus areas that support the strategy's progress, in line with the targeted management model.
Honkarakenne states that it does not consider long-term targets as market guidance for any particular year of the strategy period.
Sustainability is a key part of Honkarakenne's strategy. Honkarakenne Group is continuously developing its production, services and selection to enable healthier, more ecological, and better-qual-ity living. Our choices are guided by human and natural vitality. Honkarakenne's sustainability programme, 'We are building the future', is based on the changes we have identified in our operating environment, our ethical principles, recognised expectations of our staff and other stakeholders, and understanding the customer in our main markets.
As part of Honkarakenne's sustainability program, the parent company uses 100% guaranteed electricity produced with a renewable energy source with carbon dioxide emissions of 0 g/kWh in all its own locations.
Honkarakenne also promotes sustainability through its various product solutions. In conjunction with the Rock and Star collection, product development introduced the Honka Säästö solution, which enables the safe shut-off of both water and heat in living spaces for the winter season without the risk of water pipes freezing or equipment being damaged. Logs as a breathable structure enable sustainable construction and, with the Honka Säästö solution, electricity savings.
The Honka BrandThe core of the Honka brand is the close relationship with nature and Finnish happiness. Honka's yellow is the colour of hope and joy. Honka helps every customer realize the dreams that are important to them and Honka has the honour to convey the vitality of the northern forests.
PersonnelAt the end of financial year the Group's number of personnel was 156 (157; 169) and the Group's average number of personnel was 159 (157; 183). Measured in person-years the number totalled 156 persons (153; 174) during the year.
At the end of the financial year, the parent company had 149 (148; 163) employees, and the annual average was 151 (152; 177) employees.
Of Honkarakenne Oyj's personnel 75% (77; 78) worked at the Karstula factory and 25% (23; 22) at other locations. Clerical employees and management accounted for 64% (66; 65) of the parent company's personnel. Women accounted for 23% (23; 22) of the parent company's personnel. At the end of the year, part-time employees accounted for 2% (2; 3) of all employees. Temporary employees accounted for 1% (1; 1).
Expenses arising from the Group's employee benefits totalled EUR 8.2 million in the financial year 2025. In the previous year, they were EUR 7.6 million and in 2023 they were EUR 8.1 million.
Due to low demand during the review period and low production and delivery volumes, the parent company has had to lay off its personnel as one of its adjustment measures. In addition, change negotiations were carried out towards the end of the year, which resulted in the dismissal of four people and short- and long-term lay-offs of personnel. The authorization for temporary layoffs is valid if the company's financial or production situation so requires during 2026 or early 2027. In the comparison year, the company closed its representative office in China, which led to the dismissal of one local employee. Non-recurring costs related to these measures amounted to EUR 0.1 million (0.1).
The parent company's earnings include bonuses due to well-developed occupational safety and the achievement of the target number of safety observations. There were three fewer accidents at work
Honka Kömmeli, Oulu, Finland
resulting in absences than in the previous year, with only one (4) leading to a 5-day absence. The lost-time injury frequency was 5.
The company has an ongoing share-based incentive plan for 2024-2026, the purpose of which is to align key employees with the company's objectives and to incentivize the creation of shareholder value. The Performance-Based Share Plan 2024-2026 has a three-year vesting period and the metrics for the period are net sales and operating profit margin. Five people participate in the 2024-2026 incentive program, and the rewards correspond to a maximum of 75,000 shares in total. There were no expenses related to the incentive scheme during the financial year or the comparison period.
Personnel well-being and job satisfaction are monitored through an annual well-being survey. For the year under review, the occupational well-being survey was postponed to early 2026 due to the change negotiations and reorganization that were underway at the end of the year. The goal is to improve job satisfaction, as an enthusiastic and viable workforce that finds its work meaningful is an important foundation for Honka's operations.
In March, a joint staff day was held for personnel and domestic representatives at the Karstula factory. In addition to spending time together, they were able to familiarize themselves with the production line for the new non-settling CLT log and learn about its operations.

HONKARAKENNE Board of directors' report and financial statements 2025
Board AuthorisationsOn 11 April 2025, the Annual General Meeting decided, that the company's Board of Directors is authorised to repurchase a maximum of 400,000 of the company's own B-shares with the company's unrestricted equity.
The Board of Directors also has the authorisation to decide on a share issue, either against payment or free of charge, and the issue of special rights, entitling to shares referred to in Chapter 10, Section 1 of the Limited Liability Companies Act, in one or more tranches.
Pursuant to the authorisation, the Board of Directors may issue new shares and/or dispose of a maximum of 1,500,000 of the old Series B shares held by the company, including those shares that may be issued under special rights.
Both authorisations will remain in force until the next Annual General Meeting but expire on 30 June 2026 at the latest.
Redemption ClauseIf a Series A share is transferred to a shareholder other than the company's shareholder on basis other than inheritance, testament or matrimonial right, the Board must be notified of the transfer in writing. Within 30 days of receiving notification of the transfer, the Board of Directors has the right to redeem the Series A shares for the company at carrying amount according to the previous financial statements using the reserve fund or other assets exceeding the share capital. If the Series A shares are not redeemed for the company, the Board of Directors must immediately inform the shareholders holding the company's Series A shares of these matters. Holders of Series A shares have the right of redemption at the above-mentioned price within 30 days of the above-mentioned notice. If more than one shareholder wishes to exercise that right, the redeemable Series A shares are to be distributed among them based on their holding of Series A shares in the company or, if that is not possible, by drawing lots. The company's Series B shares are not subject to the right of redemption but are freely transferable.
Shareholders' AgreementSaarelainen Oy and certain private Honkarakenne Oyj shareholders within the Saarelainen family signed an amended sharehold-ers' agreement on 17 February 2009. The parties to the agreement have agreed that the private shareholders will make an effort to exercise their voting rights unanimously at the company's General Meetings. If they are unable to reach consensus, the private shareholders will vote in favour of the position supported by Saarelainen Oy. According to the agreement, when electing representatives of the Saarelainen family to Honkarakenne Oyj's Board of Directors, the private shareholders must reach a unanimous decision. If a consensus cannot be reached, Saarelainen Oy's General Meeting will decide which family members are to be elected based on the majority of votes cast at the meeting.
According to the shareholders' agreement, the private shareholders undertake, with certain exceptions, not to sell or transfer their A-shares in Honkarakenne Oyj to any entity other than a private shareholder that has signed the agreement or Saarelainen Oy without first offering the shares they intend to sell or transfer to Saarelainen Oy, or a buyer appointed by Saarelainen Oy with a right of first refusal.
In addition to Saarelainen Oy, the agreement covers the following shareholders: Saarelainen Sinikka, Saarelainen Erja, Saarelainen Mauri, Ruuska Pirjo, Saarelainen Anita, Saarelainen Kari, Saarelainen Paula, Ruponen Helena, Saarelainen Jukka, Saarelainen Sari and Saarelainen Jari. The parties to the agreement, including their underage children, have a combined holding of 178,066 A-shares and 778,730 B-shares. The holding of all shares is 15.40%, and the share of all votes is 36.43%.
Related Party TransactionsThe Group's related parties consist of subsidiaries and associated companies; the company's management and the companies in which they exercise influence, as well as the persons covered by
the Saarelainen shareholders' agreement, and the companies controlled by them. The management personnel considered to be related parties comprise the Board of Directors, President & CEO, and the company's Executive Group. The pricing of goods and services in transactions with related parties is based on market-based pricing.
During the financial year, ordinary transactions were made with related parties as follows: goods and services were sold to related parties for EUR 0.1 (0.2) million, and goods and services were purchased from related parties for EUR 0.4 (0.3) million. The financial statements include EUR 0.0 (0.0) million in liabilities to related parties and EUR 0.0 (0.0) million in receivables from related parties. At the balance sheet date, the parent company has receivables from subsidiaries of EUR 1.2 (1.7) million, and debts to subsidiaries of EUR 0.1 (0.1) million. No credit losses have been recognised on receivables from related parties in 2025 or 2024.
Corporate GovernanceIn 2025, Honkarakenne Oyj complied with the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act and the Securities Market Association's Corporate Governance Code 2025 for Finnish listed companies. The Corporate Governance Statement for the financial period 1 Jan-31 Dec 2025 is provided separate from this Board of Directors' Report.
Outlook for 2026According to Honkarakenne's view, the Group's net sales in 2026 will be higher than in the previous year and amount to EUR 42-45 million. The Group's operating profit will be between EUR -1.0 and
+0.5 million.
Basis for the OutlookHonkarakenne's outlook for 2026 is based on the existing order book and the company's view of an emerging recovery in the operating environment, the challenges identified, and the increased demand in export markets.
Finland's economic situation, employment development, and the availability of financing may continue to affect demand and the initiation of new construction projects.
The company sees that strategic emphases on export market areas hold potential and support new growth. For example, the continued development projects for the Green Hills Premium resort and Santa Claus amusement park in Uzbekistan will be partly realized during the spring and autumn. The project delivery is a 5-year project with a total value of EUR 15 million.
Events after the financial yearOn 30 January 2026, the company announced the Shareholders' Nomination Committee's proposal to the Annual General Meeting that, in addition to the current members Arto Halonen, Maria Ristola, and Rose-Mari Saarelainen, the company's current CEO, Marko Saarelainen, be elected as a new member of the Board of Directors for the next term. In addition, the Nomination Committee proposes that the Board of Directors elect Marko Saarelainen as Chairman of the Board from among its members. At the same time, the Honkarakenne's Board of Directors announced that it had started the search for a new CEO. Marko Saarelainen will serve as Honkarakenne's CEO until a new CEO takes up the position.
Due to the volatile market situation, Honkarakenne has started financing negotiations with several financing and guarantee institutions. The company is seeking a two or three-year financing solution to secure its working capital needs and to invest particularly in its export business. Honkarakenne's financial position was good at the end of the review period. The Group's equity ratio was 53.1% (59.7%) and net gearing was 10.4% (-3.5%). The Group's net financial liabilities amounted to EUR +1.0 million (-0.5). The Group's liquid assets totalled EUR 2.5 million (5.0). In addition, the Group has a EUR 3.0
million (3.0) overdraft facility for working capital financing, which was not in use at the time of the financial statements.
The Board of Director's Proposal on the Distribution of Retained EarningsThe parent company's equity according to the balance sheet 31 December 2025 is EUR 9,431,812.84 of which distributable assets amount to EUR -986,123.16. The parent company's loss for the financial year 1 Jan.-31 Dec. 2025 is EUR -4,433,424.70.
The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that no dividend will be paid or repayment of capital from the invested unrestricted equity fund will be distributed for the financial year that ended on 31 December 2025.
2026 Annual General MeetingThe Annual General Meeting of Honkarakenne Oyj will be held on Thursday, 23 April 2026 at 2:00 pm EET.

HONKARAKENNE Board of directors' report and financial statements 2025
Accounting Principles for Consolidated Financial Statements (IFRS)
Basic Information About the
Group
Honkarakenne Group (Honkarakenne) manufactures and sells log and solid-wood house packages as well as related design and construction services. The Group's parent company is Honkarakenne Oyj. The parent company is domiciled in Karstula, and its registered address is Hongantie 41, FI-43500 Karstula, Finland. Honkarakenne Oyj is a public limited company, and Honkarakenne Oyj's Series B shares are listed on Nasdaq Helsinki Oy's Small Cap list under the trading symbol HONBS.
A copy of the consolidated financial statements is available at www. honka.com or Honkarakenne Oyj's head office at the address above. At its meeting on 11 February 2026, Honkarakenne Oyj's Board of Directors approved the consolidated financial statements for issue. According to the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act, shareholders have the opportunity to approve or reject the financial statements at the Annual General Meeting held after the issue.
Basis of Preparation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as well as the AS/IFRS standards and SIC and IFRIC interpretations in force on 31 December 2025. International Financial Reporting Standards refer to the standards and interpretations adopted for application in the EU in accordance with the procedure laid down in the Finnish Accounting Act and the regulations issued on the basis thereof in EU Regulation (EC) No. 1606/2002. The notes to the consolidated financial statements also comply with
the requirements of Finnish accounting and community legislation supplementing the IFRS. The notes form an integral part of the financial statements.
The auditor has certified or audited the 2025 ESEF financial statements prepared in accordance with the European Commission's technical regulatory standard to be published in accordance with Chapter 7, Section 5 of the Securities Markets Act.
When preparing the consolidated financial statements, management has had to make forward-looking estimates and assumptions as well as judgements in the application of the accounting principles. These estimates and decisions may affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses recognised during the reporting period and the contingent items presented. Although the management believes that the forward-looking estimates and assumptions are reasonable, there is no guarantee they will prove to be correct. It is possible that the actual results differ from the estimates used in the financial statements.
Consolidated Financial Statements
Group CompaniesThe consolidated financial statements include the parent company Honkarakenne Oyj and all the subsidiaries over which the parent company has control. A parent company has control over a company if it has, directly or indirectly, over 50 per cent of the voting rights or if it otherwise has the power to govern the company's operating activities or financial policies. The subsidiaries are fully included in
the consolidated financial statements from the date on which the Group gains control. They will stop being included when the control ceases. Expenses directly related to the acquisition are recognised as an expense as incurred.
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration to be paid for the acquisition of the subsidiary includes transferred assets, the liabilities incurred by the previous owners and the equity interests issued by the Group. These have been measured at their fair values. Expenses directly attributable to business combinations are recognised in profit or loss, and they are not included in the consideration transferred. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of the asset or liability arising from the contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a merger are measured at their fair values at the acquisition date. The non-controlling interest in the acquiree is recognised on an acquisition-specific basis at either fair value or the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets included in the statement of financial position.
A possible contingent consideration is recognised at the fair value of the acquisition date. Subsequent changes in the fair value of a contingent consideration that is an asset or liability are recognised in profit or loss. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, its carrying amount does not change and, when the consideration is subsequently paid, the related entries are made under equity.
Intra-group transactions, unrealised internal margins, internal receivables and liabilities and internal dividends have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements. The distribution of
profit for the financial year to the parent company's owners and the non-controlling interests is presented in the statement of comprehensive income. In the statement of financial position, non-con-trolling interests are included in the Group's total equity.
Associated CompaniesAssociated companies are companies in which the Group has significant influence, but no full or shared control. Typically, it is considered significant influence when the Group has 20 per cent or more of the company's voting rights but no control over it.
In the consolidated financial statements, associated companies are included using the equity method. In the equity method, the share of the associated companies' result that is equivalent to the Group's holding is included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. If the Group's share of the associated company's losses exceeds the carrying amount of the investment, the investment is entered in the statement of financial position at zero value and the excess losses are not taken into account unless the Group is committed to fulfilling the associated companies' obligations.
Segment Reporting
Honkarakenne has two geographical operating segments, which have been combined into one reportable segment. Geographically, the sales are divided as follows: Finland and exports. Internal management reporting complies with the IFRS reporting, due to which separate reconciliations are not presented.
Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Group's management to make estimates and assumptions as well as choices regarding the application of the Group's accounting principles. Even though these estimates are
based on the management's best knowledge at the time, the actual results may differ from the estimates.
The most significant estimates are related to:
customer contracts,
estimation of income tax amounts,
valuation of trade receivables and recognition of uncertain trade receivables,
the useful lives of intangible and tangible non-current assets,
the recoverable amount of intangible and tangible non-current assets,
assessment of the probability and amount of provisions,
presentation of contingent assets and liabilities.
Foreign Currency Items
Figures concerning the financial performance and position of Group companies are presented in the currency of each unit's primary operating environment (functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is the parent compa-ny's functional and presentation currency.
Foreign currency transactions are recognised in the functional currency at the exchange rate valid on the transaction date. Foreign currency monetary items have been translated into euros at the exchange rates valid on the balance sheet date. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions and the translation of monetary items are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented under financial income and expenses in the statement of comprehensive income.
The statements of comprehensive income for Group companies that do not use the euro as their functional currency have been translated into euros using the average exchange rate for the financial
year, while their statements of financial position have been translated using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Translating the result for the financial year at different exchange rates in the statement of comprehensive income and statement of financial position creates a translation difference recognised in equity, the change in which is presented in other comprehensive income items.
Translation differences from the elimination of the acquisition cost of subsidiaries that do not use the euro as their functional currency and the translation of equity items accrued after acquisition are recognised in the other comprehensive income items under translation differences. When such a subsidiary is sold, the accumulated translation difference is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as part of the gain or loss on sale.
Revenue (net sales) from Customer Contracts
RevenueRevenue (net sales) includes the sales income from customer contracts related to the Group's primary business activities less indirect taxes and discounts granted. The transaction price expected from the customer is estimated at the beginning of the goods or services for sale.
Goods and Services for SaleThe Group sells and manufactures log and solid-wood house packages as well as related design and construction services. In addition to house packages and construction services, the Group sells log billets and process by-products. The sales income related to Honkarakenne's primary business activities is presented as revenue. The income from the sale of other goods and services is presented under other operating income.
HONKARAKENNE Board of directors' report and financial statements 2025
The time of recognition of sales income is based on the transfer of control of goods or a service to the customer. The customer is considered to have gained control when the customer is able to control the use of the goods or service and obtain related benefit. Honkarakenne has sales income that is recognised both at a specific date and over time.
Income from Goods for SaleSales income from house packages, log billets, and by-products is recognised when control over the goods is transferred to the customer. As a rule, income from the sale of house packages, log billets, and by-products is recognised at a specific date. However, if several deliveries are made at different times, the income is recognised according to delivery when control over each delivery item is transferred to the customer.
Income from Services for SaleIncome from the sale of services is recognised either at a specific date or over time, depending on the service, the related terms of contract and the duration of the service. Sales income is recognised at a specific date in the case of customer contracts which include short-term services and in which control is transferred to the customer at a given time. Sales income is recognised over time in the case of customer contracts under which the asset is under the customer's control while Honkarakenne is creating or improving it. Such customer contracts may include both materials and services, or just services.
Honkarakenne recognises the income from the sale of customer contracts to be recognised over time by determining the degree of fulfilment of each contract. The Group considers that the degree of fulfilment describes the fulfilment of the entire performance obligation, i.e., the transfer of control over the performance under the contract. The Group uses an input-based method to determine the degree of fulfilment. In the method, the costs incurred are compared with estimated total costs (cost-based input method, percentage-of-completion method).
If it is not, for some reason, possible to determine the degree of fulfilment and the expenses are expected to be covered, sales income is only recognised to the extent to which expenses have incurred. If it is probable that the total cost of completing the item will exceed the transaction price obtained for the project, the predicted loss is recognised as an expense under provisions. If, at the time of reporting, the amount invoiced for the contract is lower than the sales income recognised on the basis of the project's degree of fulfilment, the difference is presented as a contractual adjustment item under trade and other receivables in the statement of financial position. If, at the time of reporting, the amount invoiced for the contract is higher than the sales income recognised on the basis of the project's degree of fulfilment, the difference is presented as a contractual liability under current liabilities in the Advances received section of the statement of financial position.
A breakdown of revenue and additional information on sales income recognised on the basis of customer contracts is presented in Note 2.
Other Operating IncomeOther operating income includes gains on the sale of non-current assets and income not related to the primary business activities, such as lease income and government grants received as compensation for expenses incurred. Government grants received as compensation for expenses incurred are recognised as income in the same period as the expenses are recognised.
Employee Benefits
PensionsThe Group's pension plans are mainly defined contribution plans. Payments made into defined contribution pension plans are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income during the financial year to which they apply. After this, the Group will no longer have any other obligations or payments for the year in question.
Share-Based PaymentsIn the group's share-based incentive system, where the earning period is calender years 2024-2026, payments are made in combination of shares and cash.
The recording of the expense related to the share bonus system is based on the group management's estimate of the realized number of shares, to which the right is assumed to arise at the end of the date of birth of the right. The estimated number of earned shares is updated until the end of the vesting period based on the fulfillment of the earning criteria and the number of earned performance bonuses. The group updates the assumption of the final number of shares on each end of the reporting period.
At the time of closing the accounts in 2025, the program did not create an expense item in the group's result.
Termination BenefitsA termination benefit is an expense for which the company does not receive compensation in the form of work performed. Termination benefits are recognised as expenses when the Group has made a decision to terminate the employee's employment. Any benefits that the Group has offered to promote voluntary redundancies are also recognised as expenses. Other liabilities related to termination benefits that are likely to arise under various regulations have been estimated at the balance sheet date and recognised as expenses and liabilities.
Research and Development Expenditure
Research expenses are recognised as expenses in the statement of comprehensive income in the year in which they are incurred. Expenses related to the development of new products and processes have not been capitalised, as the future income from them will only be secured when the products enter the market.

HONKARAKENNE Board of directors' report and financial statements 2025
Leases
Lease LiabilityOn the start date of the lease, Honkarakenne values the lease liability at the present value of the rents that remain unpaid on that date. Lease payments included in the value of a lease liability consist of payments made during the lease for the right-to-use the underlying asset that have not been made by the start date of the lease. The payments include fixed lease payments less any lease incentives receivable and variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate and which are initially measured using the index or rate on the start date of the lease. Leases may also involve sanctions for terminating the lease. Honkarakenne will take account of the payment arising from the termination of the lease as part of the lease payments if it has taken the exercise of the termination option into account in the lease period. VAT is not included in the amount of the lease liability.
Lease payments are discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease if that rate is readily determinable. If the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the incremental borrowing rate may be used instead. According to the standard, the incremental borrowing rate is defined as the interest rate that a lessee would pay to borrow, for a similar period and with similar security, the funds required for obtaining an asset whose value equals the acquisition cost of the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment.
At the time of the adoption of the standard, the interest rate implicit in Honkarakenne's current leases was not readily determinable, so future minimum rents were discounted using the estimated incremental borrowing rate. The company assesses the incremental borrowing rate once a year in connection with the preparation of the financial statements and applies it until the next financial statements.
Right-of-use AssetHonkarakenne recognises the right-of-use asset arising from the lease on the start date of the lease, i.e., on the date on which the
lessor makes the underlying asset available to Honkarakenne. Honkarakenne measures the right-of-use asset at the acquisition cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The initial acquisition cost of the asset includes the initial amount of lease liability recognised and lease payments made by the start date less any incentives received, and initial direct costs incurred for the lease. In the acquisition costs, Honkarakenne also takes account of any costs related to the restoration of the underlying asset.
Low-value Assets and Short-term LeasesHonkarakenne does not recognise leases including low-value assets according to IFRS 16 in the statement of financial position. Instead, Honkarakenne recognises these leases on a time proportion basis as lease expenses in the statement of comprehensive income.
Honkarakenne does not recognise leases of less than 12 months, i.e., short-term leases according to IFRS 16, in the statement of financial position. Honkarakenne recognises these leases on a time proportion basis as lease expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. When determining whether the lease meets the criteria for a short-term lease, Honkarakenne assesses the length of the contract in the same way as with other contracts, i.e., taking into account possible extension and termination options and whether their exercise is reasonably certain. If the lease includes a purchase option, Honkarakenne does not consider it to be a short-term lease.
Significant AssumptionsAccording to IFRS 16, the lessee must determine the lease period as a period during which the lease cannot be terminated, also taking account of any extension or termination options if their exercise has been assessed as reasonably certain. Honkarakenne has assessed the consideration of further options as part of the lease period on a lease-by-lease basis.
Honkarakenne has lease contracts valid until further notice, particularly for business premises. In the case of premises for which the
lease is valid until further notice, the length of the lease period is based on an estimate on the length of the lease period provided by Honkarakenne's management. The estimate takes account of, for example, significant improvements made to the leased property during the lease period, expenses related to the termination of the lease and the importance of the asset to Honkarakenne's operations, taking into account the property's specificity, location and availability of suitable alternatives. Management will reassess the length of the lease period in the future to ensure that the lease period reflects the conditions at the time of the review.
Operating Profit
Operating profit consists of the revenue and other operating income, plus or minus any change in inventories of finished goods and work in progress, plus production for own use and minus materials and services, employee benefit expenses, depreciation and impairment and other operating expenses.
Interest
Interest expenses are recognised as expenses in the statement of comprehensive income.
Income Taxes and Deferred Taxes
The following are recognised as income taxes in the Group's statement of comprehensive income: accrual-based taxes calculated on the basis of the Group companies' taxable profit for the financial year, tax adjustments for previous financial years and the change in deferred tax liabilities and assets. The tax effect related to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity accordingly. The tax based on taxable income for the financial year is calculated on the taxable income in accordance with the tax rate of each country.
Deferred tax is calculated on temporary differences between the carrying amount and taxable value using either the tax rate valid at the balance sheet date or a known, fixed tax rate that will enter into force later. Deferred tax liabilities are not recognised in the case of an initially recognised asset or liability that does not arise from a business combination and whose recognition does not affect the financial result or taxable income at the time of the transaction. Deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be future taxable income, against which the temporary difference can be utilised. The probability is assessed using estimated taxable income based on Honkarakenne's business plans and budgets. The conditions for recognising a deferred tax asset are assessed at the end of each reporting period. Deferred tax liability and asset have been recorded on the balance sheet.
The most significant timing differences arise from unused tax losses, the difference between the useful life of property, plant and equipment and tax depreciation, the recognition policy for construction-related projects, provisions and leases accounted for in accordance with IFRS16. Tax-deductible losses have been taken into account as tax assets to the extent that the company is likely to be able to utilise them in the coming years. Deferred tax liabilities are only recognised for the undistributed profits of subsidiaries if the tax payment can be considered to be realised in the foreseeable future.
Government Grants
Government grants related to the acquisition of tangible or intangible assets are recognised as deductions from the carrying amount of tangible assets, and grants are recognised as minor depreciations over the useful life of the asset.
Government grants received as compensation for costs incurred are recognised as other operating income or as a deduction in the period during which the costs are recognised as expenses.
Tangible Assets
The Group's tangible assets largely consist of land, buildings, machinery and equipment. In the statement of financial position, they are measured at the original acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. The acquisition cost of the assets manufactured by the Group includes materials as well as direct labour costs and other direct costs due to the completion of the asset for its intended use. If a tangible asset consists of several parts with different useful lives, the parts are treated as separate assets. Regular maintenance and repair costs are expensed when they incur. Significant improvement or additional investments are recognised as part of the asset's acquisition cost and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the main asset if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the investment will flow to the Group.
Tangible assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, from the time they are available for use. Land is not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment:
Buildings and structures 10-30 years,
Machinery and equipment 3-12 years,
Other tangible assets 3-10 years.
Gains and losses on decommissioning and disposal of tangible assets are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income through profit and loss. Capital gains or losses are measured as the difference between the sales price and residual value. Gains on the decommissioning and disposal of tangible assets are included in other operating income. If the sales price of the product does not cover the remaining residual value of the asset, the residual value is adjusted through impairment.
Intangible Assets
GoodwillGoodwill is the total amount by which the consideration transferred, the non-controlling interest and the previously owned holdings exceed the fair value of the acquired subsidiary's identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment. For this purpose, goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units. Goodwill is measured at initial acquisition cost less any impairment losses. Impairment losses are recognised as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income. The carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the divested company or business is treated as capital gain or loss.
Other Intangible AssetsAn intangible asset is initially recognised in the statement of financial position at acquisition cost when the acquisition cost can be determined reliably, and it is expected that the intangible asset will generate economic benefits for the Group. The acquisition cost of an intangible asset comprises its purchase price and all costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Intangible assets with a known or estimated limited useful life are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income. Depreciation begins when the asset is ready for use. No expenses are recognised for intangible assets with an indefinite useful life, instead they are tested for impairment annually or when necessary. The Group does not currently have any intangible assets with an indefinite useful life.
Acquired IT systems and licences are capitalised at acquisition cost and the cost of software deployment. The acquisition cost is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the information systems and licences.
HONKARAKENNE Board of directors' report and financial statements 2025
Jiangshan, China
The estimated useful lives of intangible assets:
IT systems and software 3-5 years,
Other intangible rights 5-10 years.
Subsequent expenditure on intangible assets is only capitalised when it increases the Group's future economic benefit from the said assets beyond the initially estimated level of performance. Otherwise, the expense is recognised as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income when it incurs.
Impairment of Tangible and Intangible Assets
At each balance sheet date, Honkarakenne Group assesses whether there is any indication of the impartment of an asset. If there is such indication, the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. The recoverable amount is assessed annually for the following assets, regardless of whether there is any indication of impairment: goodwill, intangible assets with an indefinite useful life and intangible assets in progress. The need for impairment is examined at the level of cash-gen-erating units. The recoverable amount is the asset's fair value less the costs of disposal or a higher value in use.
In determining the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using discount rates that reflect the time value of money and the specific risks associated with the asset. If it is not possible to calculate recoverable future cash flows for an individual asset, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is immediately recognised in the statement of comprehensive income and is first allocated to goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then to other assets on a straight-line basis. Impairment losses on assets other than goodwill are reversed if there has been a change in
circumstances and evaluation criteria and the recoverable amount of the asset has increased since the impairment loss was recognised. However, impairment losses are not reversed beyond the carrying amount the asset would have if no impairment loss had been recognised. The calculation of recoverable amounts requires the use of estimates.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of acquisition cost or net realisable value. The net realisable value is the estimated sales price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated necessary sales expenses. The value of materials and supplies is mainly determined using the calculation of the moving average price and the FIFO method (first in, first out). The moving average price includes all direct costs of the acquisition.
In addition to the acquisition cost of materials and direct labour costs and other direct costs, the acquisition cost of manufactured inventories includes variable production overheads and general expenses. The carrying amount of inventory plots is reduced if they are expected to be sold at less than their acquisition cost. The net realisable value of inventory plots is based on their market price. Inventories are written down for obsolete items.
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
Financial AssetsFinancial assets are recorded in the accounts on the settlement date. Upon initial recognition, the Group categorises the financial assets as follows: financial assets valued at amortised cost, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. The categorisation depends on the business model used to manage the financial assets and the contractual terms governing cash flows. Financial
assets are derecognised from the statement of financial position when the right to contractual cash flows has expired, and any material risks and benefits related to the asset have been transferred outside the Group.
Financial Assets at Fair Value Through Profit or LossIn the Group, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include all derivative contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting. Such derivative contracts include the Group's currency, interest and commodity derivatives. Derivatives are recognised at fair value based on quoted market prices and generally accepted valuation models. Changes in fair value are recognised in accordance with the purpose of the derivative, either under financial items or other operating income and expenses. Honkarakenne has not applied hedge accounting and has not made a decision to start hedge accounting in accordance with IFRS 9. In 2025, the Group has not had any valid derivative contracts.
At the balance sheet date, the Group had EUR 0.0 (0.0) million of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Financial Assets at Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive IncomeFinancial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are non-derivative financial assets that are held for the collection of contractual cash flows and sale of financial assets and whose cash flows are comprised solely of capital and interest payments. This could include the Group's short-term financial market investments. Changes in fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income, except for impairment losses and interest income and exchange differences recognised using the effective interest method, which are recognised as financial items through profit or loss.
HONKARAKENNE Board of directors' report and financial statements 2025
This category also includes the Group's equity investments in shares and shareholdings to the extent that these investments have not been placed in another category on the basis of the business model.
Financial Assets Valued at Amortised CostFinancial assets valued at amortised cost are non-derivative financial assets that are held for the collection of contractual cash flows and whose cash flows are comprised solely of capital and interest payments. This category also includes trade receivables and other receivables in the consolidated statement of financial position. The financial assets in this category are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs and valued at their amortised acquisition cost using the effective interest method. Profit or loss on a financial asset valued at amortised cost is recognised through profit or loss when the asset is derecognised from or impaired in the statement of financial position.
Cash and Cash EquivalentsCash and cash equivalents consist of cash, bank account balances and liquid financial market investments with an original maturity of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents include financial assets valued at amortised cost.
Impairment of Financial AssetsThe impairment model for financial assets is based on expected credit losses, which take account of the customer's credit risk. The simplified procedure for expected credit losses is applied to trade receivables and assets based on customer contracts in accordance with IFRS 15, and receivables are classified according to their maturity date and the estimated impairment is assessed by category.
In addition, at each balance sheet date, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence of a financial asset item or group of financial assets becoming impaired. If there is substantiated evidence of impairment, the recoverable amount of the financial asset, which is the fair value of the item, is estimated and an impairment loss is
recognised to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability of bankruptcy and default or delay in payment for more than 90 days are evidence of a financial asset's possible impairment.
Financial LiabilitiesFinancial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value on the settlement dates less transaction costs. Later, all financial liabili-ties, except derivative instruments, are valued at amortised acquisition cost using the effective interest method.
In the Group, financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include all derivative contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting. Honkarakenne has not applied hedge accounting and has not made a decision to start hedge accounting in accordance with IFRS 9. In 2025, the Group has not had any valid derivative contracts. During the comparison period, the company has taken out a financial loan of 1.7 million euros, the reference interest rate of which is a fixed 2.57% with the interest rate pipe connected to the reference interest rate of the debt agreed for the loan period. The loan interest margin is 1.5 percentage points, so the total interest is a fixed 4.07%. The independent handling of the interest rate swap agreement does not have a significant impact on the financial statements, and the contract's calculated fair value is negligible.
The Group has both long-term and short-term financial liabilities, which may be interest-bearing or non-interest-bearing. Financial liabilities are derecognised from the statement of financial position when the related obligations have ceased.
Treasury Shares
If the Group's parent company or its subsidiaries acquire shares in the parent company, the Group's equity is deducted by the amount
of the consideration paid plus transaction costs. If the purchased treasury shares are resold or reissued, the consideration received is recognised in equity.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a current legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Provisions may be related to guarantees, onerous contracts, litigation, environmental and tax risks or restructuring.
Warranty provisions are recognised when a product under warranty is sold. The amount of the warranty provision is based on empirical information on actual warranty expenses. A provision is recognised for an onerous contract when the expenses necessary to meet the obligations exceed the benefits to be received from the contract. A dispute provision is recognised for disputes and legal proceedings when the company's management estimates that the transfer of financial resources from the company is probable, and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. A restructuring provision is recognised when a detailed and appropriate plan has been prepared for restructuring and the relevant parties have been informed of the arrangement, thus giving sufficient reason to expect the restructuring to take place. The recognised provision is the best estimate of costs required for the fulfilment of the existing obligation on the balance sheet date.
A contingent liability is a potential obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence of an uncertain event beyond the Group's control. Contingent liabilities also include existing obligations that are unlikely to require the fulfilment of payment obligations or the amount of which cannot be reliably determined. No provisions are recognised for
contingent liabilities. They are presented in the Notes to the Financial Statements.
Contingent assets arise from unplanned or other unforeseen events that may result in an economic benefit to the Group. Contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements. Instead, they are presented in the Notes to the Financial Statements.
Dividends
The dividend proposed by the Board of Directors of the Group's parent company is included in retained earnings in the consolidated statement of financial position and the dividend is recognised for the financial year during which the Annual General Meeting decides on the distribution of dividends.
Earnings per Share
Earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit for the financial year attributable to the parent company's shareholders with the weighted average of outstanding shares. Treasury shares are deducted from the issued shares. Diluted earnings per share are calculated from earnings per share plus the effect of potential ordinary shares on earnings for the financial year and the weighted average number of shares.
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued OperationsA discontinued operation is a part of a Group that has been disposed of or classified as held for sale and that meets one of the following conditions:
It is a significant separate business unit or a unit representing a geographical area.
It is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate key business area or geographical operating segment.
It is a subsidiary acquired solely for the purpose of reselling it.
The result of discontinued operations is presented as a separate item in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Assets from discontinued operations and the related items recognised in other comprehensive income, as well as liabilities included in the disposal group, are presented in the statement of financial position separately from other items.
The Group does not currently have any items classified as discontinued operations.

Segments
Honkarakenne Group has two geographical operating segments, which have been combined into one reportable segment in accordance with IFRS 8.12. The Group monitors sales and operations in two different market areas: Finland and Exports. Honkarakenne has combined the sales areas into one reportable segment, as the economic characteristics and products sold are similar in all market areas. The President & CEO acts as the Group's chief operating decision-maker.
Internal management reporting complies with the IFRS accounting principles, due to which separate reconciliations are not presented. The internal management reporting is used for monitoring the development of operations on the basis of business areas that are based on geographical markets. Internal management reporting serves goal setting and budget monitoring and is thus a management tool and not an actual external financial indicator.
Geographically, the Group's sales are divided as follows: Finland and exports. Finland also includes billet sales and the sale of process by-products for recycling. Exports include all other countries except Finland.
Revenue is presented according to the location of the customer and assets according to the location of assets.

Assets and liabilities based on contract
The payments of most items recognised over time are tied to specific stages of physical levels of completion. Income receivables of an item recognised over time is recognised if the item's invoicing is less than the revenue (net sales) recorded on the basis of the item's progress. Income receivables are recognised as trade receivables as the target is making progress and reaches an agreed physical level of completion that triggers invoicing. Similarly, received prepayments are recognised if the invoicing of an item recognised over time exceeds the revenue (net sales) recorded on the basis of the item's progress.
Received prepayments are recognised as revenue (net sales) as the item's rate of completion increases and latest when the item is completed. The completion time of the items depends on their extent. When prepayments are received and the item is progressing, the ratio of fulfilled payment obligations and received prepayments changes.

The calculated cash flow forecasts are based on strategies prepared and approved by management that cover a period of five years. The discount rate used in the testing is 6.8% (6.6% in 2024), and its sensitivity in relation to the calculations has been tested with different ranges. The calculation of discounted cash flows requires forecasts and assumptions concerning factors such as market growth, prices and volume development.

Temporary differences mainly consist of the parent company's unused depreciation and the tax receivables from the elimination of the internal margin on inventories. In connection with the preparation of the financial statements, the management has carefully viewed the valuation of tax receivables recognised for losses. The recognised tax assets are based on the management's view of future development. In 2025, the Group did not recognise the deferred tax asset of EUR 584 thousand arising from the parent company's taxable loss of EUR -3.0 million.
If result does not develop as expected, it is possible that the tax assets will not be utilised in time and will have to be written down. The risks are described in more detail in Notes 26 and 29.

The impairment model for financial assets is based on expected credit losses, which take account of the customer's credit risk. The simplified procedure for expected credit losses is applied to trade receivables, and trade receivables are classified according to their maturity date and the estimated impairment is assessed by category.
In addition, at each date of the statement of financial position, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence of a trade receivable or group of financial assets becoming impaired. If there is substantiated evidence of impairment, the recoverable amount of the financial asset,
