  • ROCE improvement driven by Industry & Water
  • Ongoing investment projects are expected to improve

Group’s ROCE once up and running

  • Gearing 66% - well within financial target range of

below 75%

  • Increase in net debt resulted from the adoption of

IFRS 16 according to which operating leases (EUR 134 million) are part of debt

– Excluding IFRS 16 impact, net debt would have been EUR 677 million and leverage ratio 1.7

– Average cost of net debt excluding leases is 1.9% and duration is 26 months

* Leverage ratio = Net debt / last 12 months operative EBITDA

Strong demand in pulp market creating growth opportunities

New pulp mill projects are driven by increasing demand for tissue and board

  • Main bleached pulp demand growth globally from tissue
  • Food and liquid packaging board is growing particularly fast in

Asia

  • Pulp is produced close to fiber sources and then shipped to

board, paper, and tissue mills or used captively in an integrated mill

  • Growth of bleached pulp = 1 new pulp mill per year

Multiple pulp mill projects realised and expected in Northern Europe creating opportunities for Kemira to grow with the market In addition, a few large scale pulp mill projects expected in South America, and new applications outside traditional Pulp&Paper (e.g. car battery manufacturing)

The overall slight increase in the Kemira Carbon Index in 2019 was due to the increase in carbon intensity of the Nordpool spot market. Our scope 1 emissions reduced slightly due to lower use of natural gas in Sweden. At the end of 2019, Kemira set an ambition to be carbon neutral by 2045 and a new target of reducing combined scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gasses by 30% by 2030, relative to 2018 levels. Supplier Management % of direct key suppliers screened through sustainability assessments and audits (cumulative %). The target includes 5 sustainability audits for highest risk** suppliers every year, and cumulatively 25 by 2020. Sustainability screening of key suppliers continued as planned with a total of five completed by the end of Q4. The audit results were reviewed together with the suppliers, and improvement plans were created and followed up on accordingly as part of our supplier management practices. The most common corrective actions were related to working hours and wages, as well as improving safety at suppliers’ sites.
