Outlook for 2014
Oriola-KD estimates that operating profit excluding non-recurring items will
increase compared to 2013 actual. Net sales is estimated to decrease from 2013
level.
Oriola-KD revised its guidance announced in interim report April 22, 2014 with
stock exchange release on July 15, 2014.
President and CEO Eero Hautaniemi's comments regarding the interim report:
"Profitability improved in both operating segments in Pharmaceutical Trade
Sweden. Kronans Apotek has established itself as one of the main players in the
Swedish pharmacy market with a market share of approximately 21 per cent
according to the company's estimate. The Swedish wholesale business'
profitability was strengthened by the efficiency programme that was started in
the third quarter of 2013 as well as the increased volume of the business.
Weak development of the Russian businesses contributed negatively to Oriola-KD's
net sales and operating profit during the first half. Operating profit of the
Russian wholesale business was very poor and the operating segment's
profitability was clearly behind the goals set. In connection with the planning
process, the Group's outlook on the future development of Russian pharmaceutical
wholesale operations was revised which led to EUR 77.2 million impairment
charge. During the second quarter, a change in the marketing income and bonus
receivables estimate regarding the Russian wholesale business pharmaceutical
principle contracts led to a EUR 7.2 million expense. As a result of efficiency
measures initiated in the Russian businesses, the headcount reduction at the end
of June 2014 in comparison to June 2013 was 490. We will continue and enhance
the efficiency measures taken to improve the performance of the Russian
wholesale business during the second half of the year.
The construction work of the new distribution centre in Moscow has been
completed. The investment project is progressing as planned and transfer of the
operations is scheduled to begin in the last quarter in 2014. Full production
capacity will be reached by the end of the first quarter in 2015."

will determine the earnings criteria for the earning period and the targets to
be set for these at the start of each earning period. The bonus for the 2014
earning period is based on the Oriola-KD Group's earnings per share (EPS). The
rewards to be paid on the basis of the performance period 2014 will correspond
to the value of a maximum total of 1,010,000 Oriola-KD Corporation class B
shares (also including the proportion to be paid in cash), of which 720,000

Risks
Oriola-KD's Board of Directors has approved the company's risk management policy
in which the risk management operating model, principles, responsibilities and
reporting are specified. The Group's risk management seeks to identify, measure
and manage risks that may threaten Oriola-KD's operations and the achievement of
goals set. The roles and responsibilities relating to risk management have been
determined in the Group.
Oriola-KD's risks are classified as strategic, operational and financial. Risk
management is a key element of the strategic process, operational planning and
daily decision-making at Oriola-KD.
Oriola-KD has identified the following principal strategic and operational risks
in its business:
* Amendments to pharmaceutical market regulations may weaken Oriola-KD's net
sales and profitability.
* In the Swedish retail business, the free establishment of pharmacies has led
to an increase in the number of pharmacies. The number of pharmacies may
continue to grow, which could further increase the fierce competition.
* Extra capacity ensuing from a change in the Swedish wholesale market will
intensify competition, which may weaken the profitability of operations. The
share of single channel distribution in the pharmaceutical wholesale market
may decline rapidly, which may weaken the profitability of operations and
lead to the restructuring of wholesale operations.
* In the Russian retail business, tough competition resulting from the large
number of pharmacies may lead to a further decrease in the gross margin and
a rapid turnover rate of key personnel.
* As a result of the tough competition in the Russian wholesale business, the
gross margin may decline further, which will lead to a continued need to
intensify operations and restructure wholesale operations over the long
term. The payment behaviour that is typical to the Russian market, combined
with the regional expansion of operations may increase credit risks.
* Strategic development projects involve operational risks.
The main financial risks for Oriola-KD involve currency rate, liquidity,
interest rate and credit risks. Currency risks are the most significant
financial risks in Russia and Sweden, as any changes in the value of the Russian
ruble and the Swedish krona will have an impact on Oriola-KD's net sales,
earnings and equity.
Oriola-KD prepares goodwill impairment testing twice a year, in accordance with
the timetable of its strategy and planning process. Changes in cash flow
forecasts based on strategic plans, or in the discount rate or perpetuity growth
rate, can cause a goodwill write-off, which would weaken Oriola-KD's result.
Near-term risks and uncertainty factors
A slowing down in the economic growth of Russia as well as the continuing
weakening of the external value of the Russian ruble may have an effect of the
net sales and profitability of the Oriola-KD Russian businesses in 2014. A
decrease in gross margin resulting from intense competition and an increase in
credit risks concerning customers may have an impact on the profitability of the
wholesale business in Russia.
Oriola-KD's strategic development projects in the Russian wholesale business and
the operations in Sweden involve operational risks which may have an effect on
Oriola-KD's profitability.
Oriola-KD's long-term financing agreement contains financial covenants
concerning the ratio between Oriola-KD's net debt and rolling 12-month EBITDA
and the group's gearing ratio. Weakening profitability of Oriola-KD's business
operations many affect Oriola-KD's ability to meet the financial covenants
contained in the financing agreement.
Outlook
Oriola-KD's outlook for 2014 is based on external market forecasts, agreements
with pharmaceutical companies and pharmacies, and management assessments. During
the five-year period from 2014-2018, the Finnish pharmaceutical market is
expected to grow at an annual rate of 1.9 per cent and decline an average of
0.2 per cent in Sweden per year while the Russian pharmaceutical market is
expected to grow by an average of almost 8.1 per cent annually in the local
currencies (source: IMS Health Prognosis 2014-2018).
Outlook for 2014
Oriola-KD estimates that operating profit excluding non-recurring items will
increase compared to 2013 actual. Net sales is estimated to decrease from 2013
level.
Oriola-KD revised its guidance announced in interim report April 22, 2014 with
stock exchange release on July 15, 2014.
Events after the review period
There were no material events after the review period.
Next interim report
Oriola-KD Corporation will publish its results for the third quarter of 2014 on
Thursday 23 October 2014 at about 8.30 am.

Principal accounting policies as of 1 January 2014 (IFRS)
This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IFRS standards (IAS
34). The accounting policies and calculation methods applied in the interim
report are the same as those in the 31 December 2013 annual financial
statements, excluding the standards and interpretation applied as of 1 January
2014 and presented below. However, the interim report does not include all of
the information and notes present in the annual financial statements.
Consequently, the interim report should be read with the company's financial
statements for 2013. The accounting policies of the 2013 and 2014 financial
years are comparable. The company has no discontinued operations in 2013 or
2014 that it should report.
The calculation principles of key figures in this interim report are the same as
for the annual financial statements, except for the calculation of earnings per
share (EPS) whereby the profit attributable to equity owners of the parent has
been adjusted with the unpaid hybrid loan interest.
The presentation of consolidated statement of comprehensive income has been
changed from the "function of expense" method to the "nature of expense" method.
The comparable figures have been revised to correspond with the current

Impairment loss in relation to Russian pharmaceutical wholesale operating
segment
Following a revised business plan developed by the new Russian pharmaceutical
wholesale operational management, the Group assessed the recoverable amount of
the Russian pharmaceutical wholesale operating segment during the second quarter
of 2014. Based on the business plan, the growth in future net sales and
profitability are expected to be below those of the earlier plans. The Group's
revised outlook on the growth of Russian pharmaceutical wholesale operations is
consistent with the weakening view of external information sources regarding the
future development of the Russian markets.
Based on the assessment, the carrying amount of the cash generating unit was
determined to be higher than its recoverable amount and an impairment loss of
EUR 77.2 million was recognised. The impairment charge consists of goodwill EUR
70.2 million, intangible assets EUR 0.9 million and deferred tax assets EUR 6.1
million. After the impairment no goodwill is allocated to the Russian wholesale
business. The impairment charge is included within "depreciation and
impairments" and "income taxes" in the consolidated statement of comprehensive
income.
The recoverable amount of the cash generating unit was based on value in use and
was determined on the basis of discounted cash flows (DCF-model). The cash flow
forecasts are based on five-year strategic plans approved by the management,
which are consistent with the current business structure. The cash flows of
2020-2024 are based on the assumption that the net sales growth percentage and
the operating profit percentage will gradually normalise at the level of
terminal growth. Value in use was determined similarly to the 31 December 2013
goodwill impairment test.
The key parameters applied in the value-in-use calculation of the Russian
pharmaceutical wholesale (31 December 2013) were as follows:
* Post-tax discount rate 11.8 (10.1) per cent
* Operating profit 0.2 (0.8) per cent. Operating profit percentage in the
value-in-use calculation is the average operating profit percentage over a
ten year period.
* Terminal growth 2.0 (1.0) per cent. Terminal growth rate is applied from the
beginning of year 2025.
* Net sales growth 5.0 (8.4) per cent. Net sales growth rate is the average
growth rate over a ten-year period.

Financial liabilities recognised at fair value through profit and loss (level
3) include estimated discounted fair value of a contingent consideration related
to the Medstop acquisition. Payment of the contingent consideration will be
based on 2015 EBITDA of Oriola-KD's combined Swedish retail businesses and will
be paid in first quarter of 2016. The fair value of the contingent consideration
has been calculated using discounted cash flow method. The discount rate used in
the valuation is determined using the weighted average cost of capital of the
Group.
