Additional information

Associates and joint ventures are recognized one month in arrears with the exception of Beam IT Spa, which is recognized with a year in arrears and Eimco Elecon, which is reported once a year. The close of the reporting period for Eimco Elecon is at March 31, as no financial statements as of a later date have been obtained.

The dividends paid are included in the calculation of the proportion of equity.

Sandvik acquired the remaining 70 percent of the shares in MCB Services and Minerals on April 1, 2023. Prior to the transaction, Sandvik owned 30 percent of the shares.

§ Accounting principles

Associates and joint venture

Associates and joint ventures are recognized in accordance with the equity method in the consolidated financial statements. With the equity method, the carrying amounts of interests in associated companies and joint ventures correspond to the recognized equity of those companies, any goodwill and any other remaining fair value adjustments recognized at acquisition date. Sandvik’s share of the associated company and joint venture’s income, adjusted for dissolution of acquired surplus or deficit values, is recognized as a separate item in the consolidated income statement.

Other financial assets

Other financial assets are holdings in investees over which the Group does not hold a significant influence. Not holding significant influence generally means that the shareholding corresponds to less than 20 percent of the voting rights. Other financial assets are recognized as financial assets and are measured at fair value either through other comprehensive income or profit or loss, depending on the business model applicable for the type of holding. Dividends received are recognized in the income statement.
