Organic growth

=

Defined as the change in revenue in local currencies excluding the impacts of (i) currencies; and (ii) acquisitions and divestments. The currency impact shows the impact of changes in exchange rates of subsidiaries with a currency other than the euro (Group’s reporting currency). The acquisitions and divestments impact shows how acquisitions and divestments completed during the current or previous year affect the revenue reported.

* Items affecting comparability (IAC) are material items or transactions, which are relevant for understanding the financial performance of Caverion when comparing the profit of the current period with that of the previous periods. These items can include (1) capital gains and/or losses and transaction costs related to divestments and acquisitions; (2) write-downs, expenses and/or income from separately identified major risk projects; (3) restructuring expenses and (4) other items that according to Caverion management’s assessment are not related to normal business operations.

Adjusted EBITDA is affected by the same adjustments as adjusted EBITA, except for restructuring costs, which do not include depreciation and impairment relating to restructurings.
