TAALERI PLC            STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE    30 MARCH 2023 AT 16:45 (EEST)

 
Taaleri publishes comparative financial information for 2022 according to the IFRS 17 standard


Taaleri has adopted the IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts standard and publishes adjusted comparative financial information about the Taaleri Group and its business segments from 2022.

Taaleri applies the IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts standard from January 1, 2023. The standard replaces the IFRS 4 standard. IFRS 17 standard is about valuing insurance and reinsurance contracts at fair value, based on the estimated cash flows and risks arising from the contracts. The application of the IFRS 17 standard is not expected to have a material effect on Taaleri's reported profitability nor a significant effect on the Group's equity. However, according to management's assessment, the implementation of the IFRS 17 standard will increase earnings volatility between the reporting periods.

Taaleri records the Insurance service result, as defined by IFRS 17 standard, in the Group's Total income both in the IFRS income statement and in segment reporting. According to IFRS 17 standard, the Insurance service result includes insurance revenue and insurance service expenses. In addition to incurred claims, insurance service expenses include, among other things, operating expenses incurred from insurance operations and losses on onerous contracts and reversal of those losses. When applying the IFRS 4 standard, operating expenses incurred from insurance operations have been presented below Total income, and losses on onerous contracts have been recognized in proportion to time. The implementation of IFRS 17 therefore has the effect of decreasing Taaleri Group's Total income and Other operating expenses.

The negative net difference of EUR 2.2 million, arising from the valuation of groups of insurance contracts at the time of transition has been retroactively recorded in Group’s equity on January 1, 2022, and Group’s income statement for 2022 has been restated to comply with the IFRS 17 standard. The implementation of the standard had an impact of EUR 0.0 million in Taaleri Group’s profit for the period of 2022. The Insurance liability measured according to IFRS 17 standard was at transition date, January 1, 2022, EUR 41.2 million.

The implementation of IFRS 17 standard has no effect on the Insurance investment assets.

Taaleri has described the most important transition effects in more detail in Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2022 Annual Report on page 79. Below is presented Taaleri Group's adjusted IFRS income statement for the period January 1–December 31, 2022, the adjusted IFRS balance sheet from the transition date January 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022, as well as adjusted Group result according to segment reporting for the period January 1–December 31, 2022. Taaleri Group's adjusted quarterly IFRS income statement for January 1–December 31, 2022 and adjusted business segment specific figures according to segment reporting quarterly and for the entire year January 1–December 31, 2022, are presented as attachments to this release.

Taaleri Group publishes the 2023 Consolidated Financial Statements applying the IFRS 17 standard. The 2023 Financial Statements include the opening balance sheet on January 1, 2022 and the changed accounting principles of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Management's judgement may change until then.
