Accounting principles Acquired business operations are consolidated from the time when control is transferred to the Group, and divested operations are consolidated until the time when control is transferred awayfrom the Group. The consideration paid, including the contingent sales price and the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired business operations, are measured at fair value at the time of acquisition. Expenses related to acquisitions are recognised as costs. Depending on the acquisition, the non-controlling interests’ share in the object of the acquisition is recognised at fair value or the amount that corresponds to the non-controlling interests’ proportion of the net assets of the object of the acquisition The amount by which the sum of the consideration paid, the fair value of the non-controlling interests’ share and the fair value of the assets previously owned in the object of the acquisition exceed the fair value of the identifiable net assets is recognised as goodwill. Assets held for sale are recognised at the lower of the book value or fair value less expenses arising from the divestment. Deprecia- tion is not recognised on assets held for sale after classification.
