Calculation of key financial indicators
         
Operating profit = Operating profit includes the revenue from the sale of
goods and services, other income such as gain from
sale of shares or non-financial assets, share of profit
(loss) of associates and joint ventures, less losses
from sale of shares or non-financial assets, as well
as expenses related to production, marketing and
selling activities, administration, depreciation,
amortization, and impairment charges. Realized and
unrealized gains or losses on oil and freight derivative
contracts together with realized gains and losses
from foreign currency and oil derivative contracts
hedging cash flows of commercial sales and
purchases that have been recycled in the income
statement, are also included in operating profit.
         
Comparable operating profit = Operating profit -/+ inventory gains/losses -/+
gains/losses from sale of shares and non-financial
assets - unrealized change in fair value of oil and
freight derivative contracts. Inventory gains/losses
include the change in fair value of all trading
inventories.
         
Return on equity, (ROE) % = 100 x Profit before taxes - taxes
        Total equity average
         
Return on capital employed,
pre-tax (ROCE) %
= 100 x Profit before taxes + interest and other financial expenses
        Capital employed average
         
Return on average capital employed,
after-tax (ROACE) %
= 100 x Profit for the period (adjusted for inventory
gains/losses, gains/losses from sale of shares
and non-financial assets and unrealized
gains/losses on oil and freight derivative
contracts, net of tax) + non-controlling
interests + interest expenses and other
financial expenses related to interest-bearing
liabilities (net of tax)
        Capital employed average
         
Capital employed = Total assets - interest-free liabilities - deferred
tax liabilities - provisions
         
Interest-bearing net debt = Interest-bearing liabilities - cash and cash
equivalents
         
Leverage ratio, % = 100 x Interest-bearing net debt
        Interest-bearing net debt + total equity
         
Gearing, % = 100 x Interest-bearing net debt
        Total equity
         
Equity-to-assets ratio, % = 100 x Total equity
        Total assets - advances received
         
Return on net assets, % = 100 x Segment operating profit
        Average segment net assets
         
Comparable return on net assets, % = 100 x Segment comparable operating profit
        Average segment net assets
         
Segment net assets = Property, plant and equipment, intangible assets,
investment in associates and joint ventures including
shareholder loans, pension assets, inventories and
interest-free receivables and liabilities allocated to the
business segment, provisions and pension liabilities.
         
Research and development
expenditure
= Research and development expenditure comprise of
the expenses of the Research & Technology unit
serving all business areas of the Group, as well as
research and technology expenses incurred in
business areas, which are included in the
consolidated income statement. Depreciation and
amortization are included in the figure. The expenses
are presented as gross, before deducting grants
received.
         
Calculation of share-related indicators
         
Earnings per share (EPS) = Profit for the period attributable to the equity holders
of the company
        Adjusted average number of shares during the period
         
Equity per share = Shareholder's equity attributable to the equity holders
of the company
        Adjusted average number of shares at the end of the
period
         
Cash flow per share = Net cash generated from operating activities
        Adjusted average number of shares during the period
         
Price / earnings ratio (P/E) = Share price at the end of the period
        Earnings per share
         
Dividend payout ratio, % = 100 x Dividend per share
        Earnings per share
         
Dividend yield, % = 100 x Dividend per share
        Share price at the end of the period
         
Average share price = Amount traded in euros during the period
        Number of shares traded during the period
         
Market capitalization at the end
of the period
= Number of shares at the end of the period x share
price at the end of the period
         
Trading volume = Number of shares traded during the period, and
number of shares traded during the period in
relation to the weighted average number of
shares during the period
