NoHo Partners Plc
Business ID 1952494-7
The Group announced on 21 December 2021 that it was decreasing its previous profit guidance for 2021 as a result of strict
restrictions on restaurant opening hours, local restrictions on assembly and the decision of the Finnish government to discontinue
the use of the COVID-19 passport. As a consequence, the company had to close almost all of its Finnish restaurants and lay off
nearly all of its employees.
In 2021, the turnover of the Group amounted to MEUR 186.1 (156.8), an increase of 18.7 per cent. EBIT grew by 96.2 per cent to
MEUR -0.9 (-23.9).
In June 2021, the Group announced its strategy and long-term financial targets for the strategy period 2022-2024. Strategic
programmes have been pursued with determination, without compromising on objectives, in the middle of the unstable business
environment. For example, the company completed the largest project in its history by opening 22 restaurants in December 2021
at Nokia Arena in Tampere.
Annual report from the Board of Directors
NoHo Partners Plc is the parent company of the NoHo Partners Group. In addition to the parent company, a total of 104
subsidiaries have been consolidated in these financial statements. In the annual report, the comparative data from 2020 is
presented in brackets after the data for 2021.
Key events during the financial period
In the first half of 2021, the Group operated in a strictly restricted or closed business environment in all of its operating countries.
In the third quarter, the restrictions were relaxed in Finland and gradually lifted in Denmark and Norway. At the beginning of the
last quarter of 2021, consumer demand in all of the company's operating countries was strong, as the restriction measures
eased. In November–December 2021, the restrictions tightened again in all market areas of the Group. The loss of turnover
caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 was estimated to be approximately MEUR 100.
In 2021, the Group continued to implement purposeful adjustment measures to manage the negative impacts of the strict
restrictions and shutdown on its business operations. The Group’s largest fixed costs are staff expenses and business premises
expenses. During 2021, the adjustment measures included negotiations under the Act on Co-operation within Co-operation Act
in Finland and corresponding personnel adjustment measures in Norway and Denmark. The improved efficiency of operations
that has come about as a result from the COVID-19 pandemic, along with determined adaptation measures and permanent
cost savings, were reflected in improved relative profitability.
According to the present view of the Group’s management, the current financing package and the cumulative cash flow of
operations as well as existing liquid assets and available limits cover the Group’s working capital requirements for the next 12
months, in spite of the potential prolongation of the uncertain market situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, assuming the
government does not significantly restrict the Group’s abilities to carry out its restaurant operations as described in the report of
the Board of Directors below under “Going concern assumption”’.
The Group has defined its shareholding in Eezy Plc as an asset held for sale. The Group plans to gradually reduce its
shareholdings in Eezy to finance future growth projects and, if necessary, strengthen its balance sheet position. During 2021, the
company sold part of its Eezy holding for approximately MEUR 9 and recognised a MEUR 0.7 sales gain.
Reductions in rent totalled approximately MEUR 2.8 in the financial period 2021. The Group received a total of MEUR 12.2 in grants
from the Finnish, Norwegian and Danish states to alleviate the damage caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Public grants are
discussed in Note 2.2 to the consolidated financial statements.
Together with financial institutions, the company is committed to a loan repayment programme that makes it possible to
implement the company’s growth plan pursuant to the strategy and lighten its debt burden in a balanced manner. The company
and its main financiers negotiated a financing package of EUR 141 million, signed on 15 February 2021, in which the bridge
financing, which was negotiated at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the current financiers’ existing loans were
combined into one long-term financing package. The financing package consists of a five-year programme in which loan
instalments were MEUR 12 during the financial period and will be approximately MEUR 22 during the 2022 financial period. The
purpose of the financing package negotiated is to secure the company’s long-term financing position and enable implementing
the reconstruction programme after the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to the new financing programme, the due date of the
convertible loan of MEUR 10 Finnish Industry Investment Ltd (Tesi) granted in spring 2020 was moved to May 2022.

On 16 January 2020, the company announced that it will redeem the MEUR 25 hybrid bond issued on 29 March 2019. The
redemption was carried out on 17 February 2020 with a redemption price in accordance with section 7.3 of the terms and
conditions of the hybrid bond, which was 102% of the principal plus accrued interest. The hybrid bond enabled the Smile
arrangement as well as the entry into the Norwegian restaurant market. The redemption of the hybrid bond ahead of schedule
enables the utilisation of more affordable financial arrangements in the future.
During the financial period, the parent company’s Board of Directors had the following permanent members: Timo Laine, Petri
Olkinuora, Mika Niemi, Mia Ahlström, Tomi Terho and Saku Tuominen.
The company’s CEO during the financial period was Aku Vikström. The auditors for the parent company and the Group were
Ernst & Young Oy with APA Juha Hilmola as the responsible auditor.
NoHo Partners Plc’s Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting convening on 27 April 2022 that, based on the
confirmed balance sheet for the financial period that ended on 31 December 2021, no dividend be distributed.
The repayment of the subordinated loan does not have a due date, and it will only be repaid to the creditor upon the decision of
the debtor. The creditor does not have the right to demand the repayment of the subordinated loan.
However, if NoHo Partners Plc’s holding in the debtor company falls under 50%, the subordinated loan capital will fall due and
become payable immediately.
NoHo Partners Plc’s distributable funds are EUR 98,271,289.64, of which the share of the financial period’s result is EUR -
4,912,630.50.
During the debtor’s operations, the subordinated loan can only be repaid in part or in full to the extent where the total amount of
the debtor’s unrestricted equity and subordinated loans at the time of payment exceeds the debtor’s loss confirmed for the last
completed financial period or the loss included on the balance sheet of a later financial statement.
In the event of the dissolution, liquidation and bankruptcy of the debtor, the subordinated loan can be repaid at a lower priority
compared to all other creditors, but before the proportional share of the shareholders.
(*) Proposal of the Board of Directors.
The company has received a subordinated loan defined in Chapter 12 of the Limited Liability Companies Act in previous financial
periods. The subordinated loan has been issued indefinitely and it will be repaid as agreed. However, it will be repaid, at the
earliest, when the conditions for repaying a subordinated loan according to the Limited Liability Companies Act are met. Interest
of 3% interest is paid on the loan. No collateral has been given for the loan.
This subordinated loan has a higher priority to the debtor’s assets than subordinated loans that have been issued to the debtor
after the date of signing the agreement. The debtor undertakes to adhere to the order of priority described hereinabove in all
financing activities.

Corporate governance statement
Assessment of risks and uncertainties related to the company’s operations
If the pandemic continues causing new restrictions, declaraing the state of emergency and restaurant closures, leading to the
sudden stoppage of business operations, working capital could eat into cash assets due to the resulting demand shock.
The prolonged duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on the market, customer behaviour, the demand for
restaurant services, the national economy and the financial markets are all factors that increase uncertainty in the near term
and the longer term. The sales and profitability of restaurant services are affected by the financial situation of households and
the development of purchasing power and corporate sales. The growth outlook weakened rapidly due to the COVID-19
pandemic in early 2020 in all of the Group’s operating countries. In 2021, the economic growth and demand outlook as well as
consumer confidence in the economy improved substantially. At the beginning of 2022, consumers confidence in the economy
was at the average level.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on NoHo Partners’ operations in all of the Group’s operating countries
starting from March 2020. The key risks caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have been related to the health and safety of the
Group’s employees and customers as well as loss of turnover, cash flow, liquidity, solvency and profit. The predictability of
business development over the coming months is still subject to significant uncertainty. During the next few months, the most
significant risk is related to the negative business impacts of the pandemic or emerging of new virus variants and waves as well
as the potential resulting business restrictions imposed by the public authorities. The pandemic situation, restrictions imposed by
the authorities and related news coverage may have a significant impact on consumer behaviour. The vaccination coverage has
a significant impact on the recovery of the restaurant industry in the company’s operating countries.
Uncertainties related to the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures aimed at mitigating the spread of the
disease and recovery of the restaurant industry constitute a risk to the development of NoHo Partners’ turnover and cash flow.
Adjusting operating costs and the ability to mount an agile response to changes in customer demand are key ways for the
Group to influence the development of turnover and EBIT.
The company does not engage in any actual research activities. The company's development activities mainly consist of
developing new restaurant concepts and the further development of existing concepts.
NoHo Partners has prepared a separate corporate governance statement for 2021 in accordance with the recommendations of
the Corporate Governance Code for Finnish listed companies. The statement is available on the company website at
www.noho.fi.
The Group strives to assess and track the amount of funding required by the business during the exceptional circumstances, for
example by performing a weekly analysis of the utilisation rate of the restaurants and the development of sales, in order to
ensure that the Group has sufficient working capital and liquid assets to fund the operations and repay loans that fall due. The
aim is to ensure the availability and flexibility of Group financing through sufficient credit limit reserves, a balanced loan maturity
distribution and sufficiently long loan periods as well as using several financial institutions and forms of financing, when
necessary. Changes in the macroeconomic environment or the general financing market situation may negatively affect the
company’s liquidity as well as the availability, price and other terms and conditions of financing.
The restaurant industry is a cyclically sensitive sector that reacts quickly to economic cycles, seasonal variation and external
disruptions. The COVID-19 pandemic, which began in March 2020 and grew into an international epidemic, is a good example of
an external factor that significantly impacts the industry and its development. The near-term risks and uncertainties described in
this section can potentially have a significant impact on NoHo Partners’ business, financial results and future outlook over the
next 12 months.
Restrictions imposed by the governments of the operating countries and their extension have a negative impact on operations
and cash flow if lessors do not agree to lease accommodations for the time period during which operations have been restricted
or prohibited by government decree and if the country does not compensate at all the losses caused by the restrictions it
imposes.

Should it be further prolonged, the COVID-19 pandemic and related restriction measures can lead to a deterioration of the cash
position and impaired equity of the company due to lower profitability. The Group has prepared for this eventuality with the
financing package it negotiated, by steering its operations with a focus on the cash flow, by reassessing the amount and timing
of future investments and other financing arrangements. The cumulative cash flow of operations as well as existing liquid assets
and available limits cover working capital required by the Group. In February 2021, the Group negotiated a financing package
with its financing providers, securing the Group’s long-term financial position and facilitating the measures of the reconstruction
programme.
Due to the pandemic, the labour market situation in the Group’s operating countries is challenging, which may also influence
NoHo Partners’ operations in the future. There is a labour shortage in the restaurant industry due to the pandemic, and the future
availability of labour can be seen as one uncertainty factor.
At the end of the 2021 financial period, NoHo Partners Plc’s share capital totalled EUR 150,000 (150,000) and the total number of
shares was 19,222,270 (19,222,270). The company did not hold any shares in NoHo Partners Plc at the end of the financial period.
The Group has a significant amount of goodwill on the consolidated balance sheet, which is subject to a write-off risk in the
event that the Group’s expected future cash flows decline permanently due to the COVID-19 pandemic or other internal or
external factors.
The Group has implemented purposeful adjustment measures during the pandemic, including, for example, several negotiations
pursuant to the Act on Co-operation within Undertakings concerning all of the personnel in Finland. Changes in regulations
governing the restaurant business in the Group’s various markets may have a negative impact on the Group’s operations.
Business premises expenses constitute a significant share of NoHo Partners’ operating expenses. The Group’s business premises
are primarily leased, so the development of the general level of rents has a major impact on the Group’s operations.
Regulatory changes concerning, for example, alcohol legislation, food legislation, labour legislation and value added taxation
may affect the Group’s business. The tightening of the geopolitical situation may have an impact on the market conditions of the
Company; however, the Company does not foresee it to directly impact the consumer demand in its operating countries. The
cost increases caused by the prevailing global situation may impact the Company´s operations. The Company has prepared for
the increase in raw material prices by centralising the purchase agreements and by making price increases.

the supervisory level and administrative duties as well as part-time and full-time temporary layoffs. The negotiations concerned
all of the Group’s employees in Finland.
On 21 December 2021, the company announced that it was laying off almost all of its personnel in Finland on the basis of the

On 25 February 2021, NoHo Partners announced it was commencing new negotiations in accordance with the Act on Co-
operation within Undertakings in order to adapt its Finnish operations to the restaurant closures imposed by the Finnish
Government effective from 8 March 2021. The co-operation negotiations concerned all of the Group’s employees, totalling
approximately 1,250 employees in Finland. The restrictions on restaurants also indirectly affected the approximately 2,000
people working for the Group as leased staff.
In 2020 and 2021, the company had to respond to changes in the operating environment and legislation, for example through
negotiations in accordance with the Act on Co-operation within Undertakings, in order to adapt its operations to the strict
restrictions on the restaurant sector put in place by governments. The negotiations were aimed at minimising the financial
impacts caused by COVID-19 and adjusting the Group's costs to correspond with the decline in volume due to the restrictions on
restaurants.
The Group aims to provide equal opportunities for all employees, ensure fair treatment and provide good working conditions.
The Group has a zero tolerance policy for discrimination. Occupational wellbeing and recreational activities for personnel are an
essential part of employee wellbeing. Committed and competent personnel lay the foundation for the Group’s post-COVID-19
pandemic reconstruction work.
The purchasing of goods for NoHo Partners’ restaurant operations leads to the accumulation of various types of packaging
materials and the Group strives to recycle the materials. NoHo Partners also has environmental impacts arising from the energy
consumption of its premises, for example. The Group estimates that its own operations do not involve material environmental
risks.
The Group’s restaurants have agreed on an operating model to be used with regard to the harmonised collection and
processing of used frying oil. Used frying oil is collected at the restaurants, processed in Finland and used as a recycled material
as an ingredient for biofuel under a certified operating model in accordance with the principles of sustainable development.
In its operations, NoHo Partners endeavours to take into account and reduce its environmental impacts and promote recycling.
The Group’s restaurants comply with the current regulations pertaining to the recycling and sorting of waste.
NoHo Partners supports the principles concerning human rights and the development of working conditions. Respect for human
rights is related to the company’s personnel and purchasing policies, among other things. The NoHo Partners Group does not
buy products or services from suppliers that violate or neglect national or international human rights conventions. NoHo Partners’
aim is to provide all employees with equal opportunities and treatment.
Amidst the COVID-19 crisis, the Group has striven to safeguard its future by taking the best possible care of its employees by
investing in leadership, managerial work and active communications. One of the most important ways of listening to employees
and their views is the annual Group-wide employee satisfaction survey, which was conducted in September 2021. The aim was to
monitor the well-being and coping of personnel during an exceptional year and to lay the foundation for future development
work.

The Group’s operating net cash flow for the period 1 January–31 December 2021 was MEUR 45.0 (8.4).
The adjusted net finance costs in January–December 2021 were MEUR 12.5 (10.2). The equity ratio was 15.1% (18.1%).
In 2021, the Group acquired the Allas Sea Pool business and majority shareholding in its former associated company Oslo AS. In
addition to this, the Group made normal investments in restaurant facilities in all of its operating countries.
Operating expenses **
The Group’s gearing ratio excluding the impact of IFRS 16 liabilities was 203.1% (192.0%). Interest-bearing net liabilities excluding
the impact of IFRS 16 amounted to MEUR 151.9 (163.4). The Group’s interest-bearing net liabilities (including the IFRS 16 liability) at
the end of December 2021 were MEUR 320.9 (316.6). The Group’s financing arrangements are described under Key events during

In June 2020, the European Union issued the Taxonomy Regulation. The Taxonomy Regulation forms the basis for the EU
taxonomy and it is part of the EU’s sustainable financing package. The EU taxonomy, or uniform sustainability criteria to promote
green investment, is a classification system that constitutes a list of environmentally sustainable economic activities.In the
Taxonomy Regulation, environmental sustainability is based on six environmental objectives: climate change mitigation, climate
change adaptation, the sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources, the transition to a circular economy,
pollution prevention and control and the protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems.
Activities that significantly contribute to the at least one of the objectives listed above and do not cause significant harm to the
other objectives or violate human rights, for example, are classified as environmentally sustainable, taxonomically-aligned
activities.
In 2021, companies are required to disclose information about the share of taxonomy-eligible businesses of their turnover, capital
expenses and operating expenses. A function is reported if it is within the scope of the Regulation.
In its first phase, the sectors and activities with the greatest potential to have a major impact on climate change mitigation or
adaptation have been included in the taxonomy. The Group has carried out a review of its operations. Based on the analysis, the
Group’s interpretation is that none of its business activities are included in the currently reported taxonomy activities.
NoHo Partners does not accept bribery in any form in its operations. All the Group’s financial transactions are entered in the
accounts. The Group’s financial transactions are audited through internal controls and in the annual audit. The Group’s accounts
are transparent for the financial management.

Authorisations granted to the Board of Directors
Annual General Meeting 21 April 2021
Authorisation to purchase the company’s own shares
Significant events after the financial statements date
Eezy Plc holding
Based on the authorisation given by the Annual General Meeting, on 27 January 2022 the Board of Directors of NoHo Partners
decided to proceed with a special issue of 40,503 new NoHo Partners shares. The number of shares subscribed for in the share
issue corresponds to approximately 0.2 per cent of the share capital of NoHo Partners after the registration of the new shares.
The authorisation will remain in force until the end of the next AGM, but for no more than 18 months from the AGM’s resolution on
the authorisation.
The AGM decided to withdraw the previous unused authorisations to purchase the company’s own shares and authorise the
Board to decide upon the purchase of a maximum of 800,000 of the company’s own shares in one or several tranches using the
company’s unrestricted equity under the following conditions:
Authorisation to decide on issuance of shares and/or the issuance of option rights and other special rights entitling to
shares
The authorisation can be used, for example, to implement mergers or acquisitions or financing arrangements, to develop the
company’s equity structure, to improve the liquidity of the company’s shares, to implement the company’s incentive schemes or
for other purposes decided by the company’s Board of Directors. Under the authorisation, a maximum of 568,950 shares may be
issued for the implementation of the company’s incentive schemes, which corresponds to approximately 3.0% of all registered
shares in the company on the date of the notice convening the AGM.
The shares shall be purchased in public trading organised by Nasdaq Helsinki Oy and, therefore, the purchase takes place by
private placing and not in proportion to the shares owned by the shareholders, and the consideration to be paid for the shares
shall be the market price of NoHo Partners Plc’s share at the time of purchasing.
The shares shall be purchased for financing or carrying out possible corporate acquisitions or other arrangements, to implement
incentive schemes within the company or for other purposes decided upon by the Board of Directors. The maximum amount of
the shares to be purchased is equivalent to approximately 4.2 per cent of all the shares and votes of the company calculated
using the share count on the publication date of the notice of the AGM.
Under the authorisation, a maximum total of 3,000,000 shares may be issued in one or more tranches, corresponding to
approximately 15.6 per cent of all of the company’s registered shares calculated using the share count on the publication date
of the notice of the Annual General Meeting.
The Board of Directors shall decide on the other matters related to the purchase of treasury shares. The authorisation will remain
in force until the end of the next AGM, but for no more than 18 months from the AGM’s resolution on the authorisation.
The AGM decided to withdraw previous share issue authorisations and authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the
issuance of shares and/or option rights or other special rights entitling to shares as follows:
Share issues and/or the issue of option rights or other special rights can be carried out in deviation from the shareholders’ pre-
emptive subscription right (special share issue).
At the beginning of January 2022, NoHo Partners sold 725,000 Eezy Plc shares. At the time of publication of the financial
statements, NoHo Partners holds 5,139,745 Eezy Plc shares.
On 27 January 2022, NoHo Partners Plc announced in a stock exchange release that it will issue 40,503 new shares in a
special issue.
Under the authorisation, the Board of Directors may issue new shares or transfer shares held by the company. The Board of
Directors is authorised to decide on all other conditions of the issuance of shares and/or option rights or other special rights.

The issue was offered to the Norwegian company Carpe Diem AS as part of an arrangement through which NoHo Partners’
subsidiary NoHo Partners International Oy acquired an additional 6% share in the Norwegian company NoHo Norway AS. After
the transaction, NoHo Partners International Oy owns a total of 86% of NoHo Norway AS’ share capital. In the transaction, in
addition to the Shares, the Seller received a total of approximately EUR 294,000 in receivables from NoHo Norway AS. The
subscription price per Share was EUR 7.993, which corresponded to the three (3) months’ volume weighted average price of the
NoHo Partners share.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a considerable impact on the company’s market and the restaurant industry as a whole, and it
has significantly affected the company’s operations. As the pandemic escalated, the company's year 2022 started in a strictly
limited operating environment in all of its operating countries. Private consumption is expected to recover rapidly after the
restrictions are lifted and the business and event sales will gradually return to normal. Due to the significant increase in
vaccination coverage and the coronavirus becoming milder, the Group expects the market to normalise during the second
quarter of 2022.
The company will also provide monthly reports on the development of its business under these exceptional circumstances until
further notice.
The company will issue its turnover and profitability forecast for 2022 at the latest in connection with the January–March 2022
interim report.
The shares were registered in the Trade Register on 28 January 2022, and they grant their holders shareholder rights as of the
registration date. The shares were admitted to trading on Nasdaq Helsinki Oy on 31 January 2022. With the subscriptions, the
number of NoHo Partners shares increased to 19,262,773 shares.
According to the management, the cumulative cash flow of operations, the funding agreement negotiated in the spring as well
as existing liquid assets and available limits cover the Group’s working capital requirements for the next 12 months. In addition,
on the closing date the Group has a shareholding in Eezy Plc that has a market value in excess of MEUR 35 and is classified as an
asset held for sale. By gradually reducing its shareholding, the Group aims to finance the growth targets for the strategy period
2022–2024 and, if necessary, strengthen the Group’s balance sheet position. The view of the Group management is that there
are currently grounds for assuming that the business operations of NoHo Partners Group will continue.
The Group’s long-term financial targets for the strategy period 2022–2024 were published on 11 June 2021. The Group aims to
achieve a turnover of approximately MEUR 400 and an EBIT margin of approximately 10 per cent during 2024. At the same time,
the aim of the company is for the ratio of net debt to operating cash flow, adjusted for IFRS 16 lease liability, to be under 3. The
objective of the company is to pay dividends during the strategy period.
The Group has taken purposeful action to reduce the pandemic’s impacts, uncertainties and risks and to secure the Group’s
financial position and sufficient financing.
In February 2021, the Group negotiated a financing agreement with its financing providers, securing the Group’s financial position
for the coming years and facilitating measures to be taken in the rebuilding phase. The financing arrangements are described
under Key events during the financial period above. As the ultimate duration and overall impacts of the pandemic are difficult to
predict, its effects on NoHo Partners’ future turnover, result, cash flow and financial position may deviate from the current
estimates and assumptions of the management.
According to a management estimate published on 11 June 2021, the turnover of NoHo Partners Group in 2022 will be
approximately MEUR 280 with the current units and approximately MEUR 400 as a whole in 2024. It is estimated that
approximately MEUR 50 of the expected growth of approximately MEUR 120 will come from Norway, approximately MEUR 30
from the scaling of Friends & Brgrs business operations, approximately MEUR 30 from large and profitable urban projects and
approximately MEUR 10 from the Group’s other businesses.

If, going forward, restaurant operations are restricted significantly and for a long time due to the pandemic or another similar
external factor by the government and the Group is not able to secure adequate additional financing or support from the
government, and can’t renegotiate loan amortisation plans or receive sufficient additional debt or equity financing or support for
its operations from the market, there may be uncertainty concerning the continuity of the Group’s business.

totalling MEUR 2.6.
The result of the associated company Eezy Plc for the period 1 January–30 June 2021 was MEUR 0.3. Eezy Plc’s effect on the

income.
In the period 1 October–31 December 2021, the shares of non-controlling interests of income is increased considerably by public
grants received by the Group from the Finnish State during the financial period, which have been allocated to the subsidiaries
during the fourth quarter. The negative impact of group limits set for the grants on the total amount of grants is mainly borne by
the Group’s parent company.
The result for the review period includes approximately MEUR 6.5 of non-recurring depreciation, amortisation and impairment
comprised of discontinued units and units whose revenue generating capacity is estimated to decline in the future as well as
IFRS 16 impacts of expiring leases.

redundancies resulting from the cooperation negotiations, expenses relating to expiring leases and credit losses recognised
during the financial period 2020. In addition, the income statement includes more than MEUR 1 of costs associated with the
closure and reopening of business functions.
Non-recurring items recognised during the financial period 1 January–31 December 2021 and the effect of the
associated company Eezy Plc on the Group´s result
The result for the financial period includes approximately MEUR 0.6 in unrealised exchange rate gains (2020: MEUR 0.6 in
unrealised exchange rate losses).

In Finland, strict restrictions on restaurants were in effect at the beginning of 2021. Alcohol service was ordered to end at
midnight nationwide and restaurants could stay open until 01:00. In the regions where the pandemic was in the acceleration
phase, alcohol service was permitted until 10 p.m. and restaurants that primarily serve alcohol could stay open until 11 p.m. In
nightclubs, bars and pubs, the customer capacity was restricted to half of the normal capacity. In restaurants that primarily
serve food, the permitted customer capacity was 75 per cent and they could stay open until midnight. In regions where the
pandemic was in the community transmission phase, restaurants that primarily serve food had to close by 23:00.

5.9. Risk management
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the Group’s business since March 2020. The spread of the pandemic,
the restrictions imposed by governments on the restaurant industry to mitigate it and the impacts of the pandemic on
customer demand have had a highly negative effect on NoHo Partners’ business operations and financial results. As the
ultimate duration and overall impacts of the pandemic are difficult to predict, its effects on NoHo Partners’ future turnover,
result, cash flow and financial position may deviate from the current estimates and assumptions of the management. The
company has taken purposeful action to reduce the pandemic’s impacts, uncertainties and risks and to secure the Group’s
financial position and sufficient financing.
In February 2021, the Group negotiated a financing agreement with its financing providers, securing the Group’s financial
position for the coming years and facilitating measures to be taken in the rebuilding phase.
In March, following the acceleration of the pandemic situation, the Finnish Government ordered the closure of restaurants on 8
March 2021 in regions where the pandemic was in the acceleration or community transmission phase. From that date onwards,
only takeaway sales were allowed. The Group immediately entered into new negotiations under the Act on Co-operation
within Undertakings in order to adapt its operations to the tighter restrictions. The co-operation negotiations concerned all of
the Group’s employees, totalling approximately 1,250 employees in Finland. The restrictions on restaurants also indirectly
affected the approximately 2,000 people working for the Group as leased staff.

During 2021, the company received approximately MEUR 4.5 in support from the Finnish state.
In May, restrictions were gradually eased regionally and, starting from 13 May 2021, almost throughout the country, whereupon
alcohol service in areas in the baseline phase was extended until midnight and opening hours until 01:00, while in areas in the
acceleration phase, alcohol service was extended until 22:00 and opening hours until 23:00. In areas in the community
transmission phase, restaurants serving alcohol were allowed to serve alcohol until 18:00 and stay open until 19:00, while other
restaurants were ordered to stop serving alcohol at 19:00 and close at 20:00.
Restaurant restrictions were eased on 24 June 2021, when the restrictions on the number of customers, alcohol service hours
and opening hours were removed for areas in the baseline phase. Only Uusimaa remained in the acceleration phase, where
the alcohol service hours of restaurants were extended until midnight and opening hours until 01:00. Restaurant restrictions
were tightened again in late July, when several regions were classified as being in the acceleration phase. At the beginning of
August, Uusimaa, Pirkanmaa and Southwest Finland were classified as being in the community transmission phase.
Restaurant restrictions were eased effective from the beginning of October. In regions in the acceleration phase of the
pandemic, restrictions on opening hours and alcohol service hours were lifted completely. Consequently, regions in the
baseline and acceleration phases only had general obligations concerning hygiene and safe distances. In regions in the
community transmission phase – such as Uusimaa, Ostrobothnia, South Ostrobothnia and Southwest Finland – alcohol service
hours and opening hours were extended by one hour to midnight and 1:00 a.m. respectively, and the prohibition of karaoke
and dancing was lifted throughout the country. Restaurants serving alcohol are allowed to use 50% of their customer capacity
both indoors and outdoors, while other restaurants are allowed to use 75% of their customer capacity.
NoHo Partners announced immediately on 21 January 2021 that it was decreasing its profit guidance for 2021, published on 9
November 2021, as a result of strict restrictions on restaurant opening hours, local restrictions on assembly and the decision of
the Finnish government to discontinue the use of the COVID-19 passport. As a consequence, the company had to close almost
all of its Finnish restaurants. At the same time, the Group announced that it was laying off almost all of its personnel in Finland,
totalling approximately 1,250 employees, and commencing negotiations pursuant to the Act on Co-operation within
Undertakings in order to adapt its operations to the tightened restrictions.
The three-week closure was extended until 18 April 2021, and restaurants could subsequently be opened on 19 April 2021
subject to strict restrictions on opening hours, alcohol service and customer capacity. In regions where the pandemic was in
the acceleration or community transmission phase, restaurants serving alcohol were allowed to stay open until 18:00 and
restaurants that serve food were allowed to stay open until 19:00, with alcohol service ending at 17:00. Areas in the baseline
phase of the pandemic returned to restricting alcohol service to 22:00. The Finnish Parliament approved the proposal issued by
the Finnish Government on 30 April 2021 on the temporary amendment of the Communicable Diseases Act to extend the
validity of the temporary regulations until 31 December 2021.
A COVID-19 passport was implemented in Finland on 16 October 2021. NoHo Partners started using the COVID-19 passport at a
few of its nightclubs as an alternative to the restaurant restrictions in the community transmission phase. On 25 November
2021, the company announced that it would introduce the COVID-19 passport at all of its restaurants in areas in the
community transmission phase as an alternative to the imposed restaurant restrictions. The restaurant restrictions were
tightened in Finland on 28 November 2021, and after that alcohol service in restaurants in areas in the community transmission
phase ended at 5 p.m. and opening hours at 6 p.m. The restrictions could be circumvented with a COVID-19 passport.
On 21 December 2021, the Finnish government announced new tightened restrictions as of 24 December 2021, with the use of
COVID-19 passports and business and alcohol service hours significantly restricted. All restaurants in the country had to be
closed at 6 p.m. from 12 January 2022, with alcohol service ending at 5 p.m.
After the 2021 financial period, alcohol service hours of restaurants were extended until 8 p.m. and opening hours until 9 p.m. at
the beginning of February 2022. There was no change to stopping alcohol service at 5 p.m. and staying open until 6 p.m. of
restaurants serving alcohol. The restrictions continued until 14 February 2022, after which alcohol service ends at 11 p.m. and
opening hours end at midnight for all restaurants. The restrictions on assembly were also discontinued. The restaurant
restrictions were lifted completely on 1 March 2022.

In Denmark, restaurants were closed throughout the country at the beginning of 2021 and only takeaway sales were allowed.
In response to the improved pandemic situation, Denmark allowed restaurants to reopen, subject to restrictions, starting from
21 April 2021, with alcohol service ending at 22:00 and doors closing at 23:00. Customer capacity was restricted to about half
of full capacity, and a COVID-19 passport and table reservation were required for entry. Starting from 1 June 2021, the opening
hours of restaurants serving food and bars were extended until midnight and, starting from 15 July 2021, until 02:00. The COVID-
19 passport was taken out of sue and nightclubs were allowed to reopen on 1 September 2021. Restaurant restrictions were
lifted throughout the country on 10 September 2021.
In Denmark, the state has supported companies in the restaurant industry during the crisis by covering 80 per cent of their
fixed expenses, relative to the decline in turnover. In addition to fixed expenses, the Danish state also covered 80 per cent of
wage expenses from March until the end of June 2021. The state also paid employees’ wages for the first seven days starting
from the reopening of restaurants on 21 April 2021. Starting from the beginning of July 2021, a cost support model entered into
force, whereby fixed cost support was extended for restaurants whose turnover was less than 40 per cent of their turnover in
the corresponding period in 2019.
In Norway, a ban on the sale of alcohol was in effect in restaurants at the beginning of 2021. The company’s restaurants in
Norway are primarily restaurants that serve alcohol, and they were closed. The restriction on serving alcohol was cancelled
regionally in the third week of January 2021. However, in Oslo, for example, the ban on serving alcohol continued until 2 March
2021, after which restaurants in Oslo were ordered to close entirely. The prohibition of alcohol service was reinstated nationally,
effective from 26 March 2021. It was subsequently cancelled on a regional basis on 16 April 2021. From that date onwards,
restaurants in certain municipalities were allowed to stay open until 10.30 p.m., with alcohol service ending at 10 p.m. In Oslo,
the ban on alcohol service continued until 25 may 2021, after which in Oslo and in Trondheim, for example, alcohol service was
allowed until 10 p.m., and in most other municipalities until midnight. The national restrictions were lifted at the end of June.
Since then, the restrictions were municipality-specific. In Oslo, restaurants serving food and bars were allowed to stay open
until 3 a.m. In indoor areas of restaurants, customers were required to have a seat, table service was required and safe
distances of 1.5 metres needed to be ensured. Restaurant restrictions were lifted completely throughout the country on 25
September 2021.
The restrictions were tightened again in mid-December 2021, with a four-week ban on serving alcohol in restaurants. It ended
on 14 January 2022, after which all restaurants were allowed to serve alcohol until 11 p.m. and stay open until midnight. The
customer capacity was limited to about 50 per cent and only table service was allowed. The restaurant restrictions, with the
exception of the prohibition to dance and one-metre safe distance, were lifted in Norway on 1 February 2022. The remaining
restrictions were lifted on 12 February 2022.
With the restrictions tightening again in December, the Norwegian state covered up to 85 per cent of fixed expenses if
turnover decreased by more than 30 per cent compared to the corresponding period in 2019. Waste was reimbursed at a rate
of 100% and the turnover of cancelled events at a rate of 70%. The wage subsidy (80 per cent up to NOK 30,000/month) and
the reimbursement of fixed costs continued until the end of January 2022.
The Norwegian state’s 80% compensation for fixed costs remained in effect until the end of September 2021, when society was
reopened and restaurant restrictions were lifted. The Norwegian state also supported employment by paying 50 per cent of
the wages of re-employed personnel until the end of June 2021. Companies in Norway have also received additional support
by municipalities and arts councils while the restrictions remained in place.
The COVID-19 passport was taken back into use on 12 November 2021 in restaurants, bars, cafes and nightclubs and in indoor
events of more than 200 people and outdoor events of more than 2,000 people. Restaurants had to close at 11 p.m., with
alcohol service ending at 10 p.m. Customer capacity was restricted to half of normal. Nightclubs remained closed. All
restaurant restrictions were lifted in Denmark as of 1 February 2022.
With the restrictions re-introduced in November 2021, the Danish state covered up to 80 per cent of fixed expenses if turnover
decreased by more than 30 per cent compared to the corresponding period in 2019. The State reimbursed 90 per cent of fixed
costs, depreciation and interest between 17 December 2021 and 17 January 2022 if the company was proactively closed. The
wage subsidy was 90 per cent of the wages of hourly paid workers and 75 per cent of the salaries of monthly wage earners.

1.4. Going concern assumption
The above section describes the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Group’s business. The Group has taken purposeful
action to reduce the pandemic’s impacts, uncertainties and risks and to secure the Group’s financial position and sufficient
financing.
In February 2021, the Group negotiated a financing agreement with its financing providers, securing the Group’s financial
position for the coming years and facilitating measures to be taken in the rebuilding phase. The financing arrangements are
described in more detail in Note 5.6. As the ultimate duration and overall impacts of the pandemic are difficult to predict, its
effects on NoHo Partners’ future turnover, result, cash flow and financial position may deviate from the current estimates and
assumptions of the management.
According to the management, the cumulative cash flow of operations, the funding agreement negotiated in the spring as well
as existing liquid assets and available limits cover the Group’s working capital requirements for the next 12 months. In addition,
on the closing date the Group has a shareholding in Eezy Plc that has a market value in excess of MEUR 35 and is classified as
an asset held for sale. By gradually reducing its shareholding, the Group aims to finance the growth targets for the strategy
period 2022–2024 and, if necessary, strengthen the Group’s balance sheet position. The view of the Group management is that
there are currently grounds for assuming that the business operations of NoHo Partners Group will continue.
If, going forward, the Group’s restaurant operations are restricted significantly and for a long time due to the pandemic or
another similar external factor by the government and the Group is not able to secure adequate additional financing or support
from the government, and can’t renegotiate loan amortisation plans or receive sufficient additional debt or equity financing or
support for its operations from the market, there may be uncertainty concerning the continuity of the Group’s business.
Risks and uncertainty factors
The restaurant industry is a cyclically sensitive sector that reacts quickly to economic cycles, seasonal variation and external
disruptions. The COVID-19 pandemic, which began in March 2020 and grew into an international epidemic, is a good example
of an external factor that significantly impacts the industry and its development. The near-term risks and uncertainties
described in this section can potentially have a significant impact on NoHo Partners’ business, financial results and future
outlook over the next 12 months.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on NoHo Partners’ operations in all of the Group’s operating countries
starting from March 2020. The key risks caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have been related to the health and safety of the
Group’s employees and customers as well as loss of turnover, cash flow, liquidity, solvency and profit. The predictability of
business development over the coming months is still subject to significant uncertainty. During the next few months, the most
significant risk is related to the negative business impacts of the pandemic or emerging of new virus variants and waves as well
as the potential resulting business restrictions imposed by the public authorities. The pandemic situation, restrictions imposed by
the authorities and related news coverage may have a significant impact on consumer behaviour. The vaccination coverage
has a significant impact on the recovery of the restaurant industry in the company’s operating countries.
The prolonged duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on the market, customer behaviour, the demand for
restaurant services, the national economy and the financial markets are all factors that increase uncertainty in the near term
and the longer term. The sales and profitability of restaurant services are affected by the financial situation of households and
the development of purchasing power and corporate sales. The growth outlook weakened rapidly due to the COVID-19
pandemic in early 2020 in all of the Group’s operating countries. In 2021, the economic growth and demand outlook as well as
consumer confidence in the economy improved substantially. At the beginning of 2022, consumers confidence in the economy
was at the average level.
Uncertainties related to the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures aimed at mitigating the spread of the
disease and recovery of the restaurant industry constitute a risk to the development of NoHo Partners’ turnover and cash flow.
Adjusting operating costs and the ability to mount an agile response to changes in customer demand are key ways for the
Group to influence the development of turnover and EBIT.
Restrictions imposed by the governments of the operating countries and their extension have a negative impact on operations
and cash flow if lessors do not agree to lease accommodations for the time period during which operations have been
restricted or prohibited by government decree and if the country does not compensate at all the losses caused by the
restrictions it imposes.
25
NoHo Partners Plc
Business ID 1952494-7
The Group strives to assess and track the amount of funding required by the business during the exceptional circumstances, for
example by performing a weekly analysis of the utilisation rate of the restaurants and the development of sales, in order to
ensure that the Group has sufficient working capital and liquid assets to fund the operations and repay loans that fall due. The
aim is to ensure the availability and flexibility of Group financing through sufficient credit limit reserves, a balanced loan maturity
distribution and sufficiently long loan periods as well as using several financial institutions and forms of financing, when
necessary. Changes in the macroeconomic environment or the general financing market situation may negatively affect the
company’s liquidity as well as the availability, price and other terms and conditions of financing.
If the pandemic continues causing new restrictions, declaraing the state of emergency and restaurant closures, leading to the
sudden stoppage of business operations, working capital could eat into cash assets due to the resulting demand shock.
Should it be further prolonged, the COVID-19 pandemic and related restriction measures can lead to a deterioration of the cash
position and impaired equity of the company due to lower profitability. The Group has prepared for this eventuality with the
financing package it negotiated, by steering its operations with a focus on the cash flow, by reassessing the amount and timing
of future investments and other financing arrangements. The cumulative cash flow of operations as well as existing liquid assets
and available limits cover working capital required by the Group. In February 2021, the Group negotiated a financing package
with its financing providers, securing the Group’s long-term financial position and facilitating the measures of the reconstruction
programme.
The Group has implemented purposeful adjustment measures during the pandemic, including, for example, several negotiations
pursuant to the Act on Co-operation within Undertakings concerning all of the personnel in Finland. Changes in regulations
governing the restaurant business in the Group’s various markets may have a negative impact on the Group’s operations.
Regulatory changes concerning, for example, alcohol legislation, food legislation, labour legislation and value added taxation
may affect the Group’s business. The tightening of the geopolitical situation may have an impact on the market conditions of
the Company; however, the Company does not foresee it to directly impact the consumer demand in its operating countries.
The cost increases caused by the prevailing global situation may impact the Company´s operations. The Company has
prepared for the increase in raw material prices by centralising the purchase agreements and by making price increases.
Business premises expenses constitute a significant share of NoHo Partners’ operating expenses. The Group’s business premises
are primarily leased, so the development of the general level of rents has a major impact on the Group’s operations.
Due to the pandemic, the labour market situation in the Group’s operating countries is challenging, which may also influence
NoHo Partners’ operations in the future. There is a labour shortage in the restaurant industry due to the pandemic, and the
future availability of labour can be seen as one uncertainty factor.
The Group has a significant amount of goodwill on the consolidated balance sheet, which is subject to a write-off risk in the
event that the Group’s expected future cash flows decline permanently due to the COVID-19 pandemic or other internal or
external factors.

1.5. Key estimates and judgements
Key estimates and judgements Note
4.3. Leases
1.6. Consolidation principles
Subsidiaries
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with the IFRS standards requires the use of certain
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported figures. The estimates and assumptions used in these financial
statements are based on the management’s best estimate at the time of closing the books. These estimates and
assumptions influence the application of the accounting principles used in the financial statements, the amounts of assets
and liabilities on the balance sheet, the presentation of contingent assets and liabilities in the notes to the financial
statements as well as the income and expenses for the financial period. The estimates are based on previous experience,
market data and several other assumptions that are deemed reasonable, but the actual figures may deviate from these
estimates due to different assumptions or circumstances. The management must exercise judgement in applying the
accounting principles of the financial statements and making estimates related to income taxes, goodwill impairment testing,
provisions and contingent liabilities, for example. These principles and estimates require the management to make subjective
and complex judgement-based estimates, such as those concerning the effects of factors that are uncertain by nature.
Assumptions related to acquisitions (e.g. the future cash flows of the acquired business,
purchase price allocations, the value and useful life of brands, the fulfilment of
conditions concerning brands with an indefinite useful life, the realisation of contingent
transaction prices and the synergies achieved through acquisitions)

involvement in the entity, is exposed to the entity's variable returns or is entitled to them, and can influence these returns by
exercising its power on the entity. The Group’s control is based on voting rights. Subsidiaries are consolidated into the
consolidated financial statements starting from the date when control is transferred to the Group; assigned subsidiaries are
retained in the consolidated financial statements until the date when control ceases to exist.

2.10. Income tax expense
The acquisition method has been used to eliminate mutual share ownership between the Group's companies. The amount by
which the acquisition cost exceeds the Group's share of the fair value of the purchased net identifiable assets is recorded as
goodwill. If the acquisition cost is lower than the net assets of the acquired subsidiary, the difference is recognised as income
in the income statement.

Business ID 1952494-7
Associated companies
The Company has significant, over 20 percent, ownership in Eezy Plc, which is treated as non-current assets held for sale.
1.7. Non-current assets held for sale
Acquisition-related expenditure, excluding the expenditure from issuing current liability and equity convertible securities, has
been recorded as expense. Any conditional additional purchase price has been measured at fair value at the moment of
acquisition, and has been classified as liability or equity. Additional purchase price classified as liability is measured at fair
value on each closing date, and the generated profit or loss is recorded through profit or loss. Additional purchase price
classified as equity is not re-measured. Any non-controlling interests in the object acquired are measured at either fair value
or an amount corresponding to the proportion of the non-controlling interests in the net identifiable assets of the object
acquired. The measurement principle is defined separately for each business acquisition.
Intragroup transactions, receivables and payables as well as unrealised gains are eliminated when drawing up the
consolidated financial statements. Unrealised losses are not eliminated if the loss is caused by impairment. Where necessary,
the accounting principles of the financial statements of subsidiaries have been amended to correspond to those of the Group.
Immediately before the classification, the asset items classified as held for sale are measured according to the applicable
IFRS standards. Starting from the moment of classification, the asset items held for sale are measured at carrying amount or
fair value less the costs of selling, whichever is lower. Depreciation on these asset items is discontinued and the share of the
associated company’s result is no longer recognised after the classification.
On 11 June 2021, the Group published its updated strategy and financial targets for the strategy period 2022–2024. In
connection with this, the Group decided to classify its shareholding in Eezy Plc as an asset held for sale. The Group plans to
gradually reduce its shareholdings in Eezy to finance future growth projects and, if necessary, strengthen its balance sheet
position.
The distribution of the profit or loss for the financial period between the owners of the parent company and the minority
shareholders is presented in the income statement. The distribution of the comprehensive income between the owners of the
parent company and the minority shareholders is presented together with the comprehensive income statement.
Comprehensive income is allocated to minority shareholders, even if this would lead to the non-controlling interest becoming
negative.
The portion of equity belonging to minority shareholders is presented as a separate item on the balance sheet, as part of
equity. Changes to the parent company's holding in a subsidiary that will not lead to a loss of control are recorded as
transactions concerning equity. If an acquisition is completed in stages, the earlier holding is measured at fair value, and the
resulting gain or loss is recognised through profit or loss. When the Group loses its controlling interest in a subsidiary, the
remaining portion is measured at fair value on the date of the loss of control, and the difference is recorded through profit or
loss.
Associated companies are companies where the Group exercises a significant influence over the voting rights. A significant
influence is mainly generated when the Group owns over 20 per cent of the company's voting rights, or when the Group
otherwise exercises a significant influence but does not have a controlling interest. Associated companies are consolidated
into the consolidated financial statements using the equity method. If the Group's share of the losses of an associated
company exceeds the carrying amount of the investment, the investment is recorded at zero value on the balance sheet;
losses exceeding the carrying amount are not consolidated unless the Group is committed to fulfilling the liabilities of the
associated company. Any investment in an associated company includes the goodwill accrued from its acquisition. Unrealised
gains between the Group and an associated company have been eliminated in accordance with the Group's holding. The
portion of the associated companies' income from the financial period corresponding to the Group's holding is presented as a
separate item above EBIT. Correspondingly, the Group's share of the changes recorded in the other items of the associated
company's comprehensive income is entered in the other items of the Group's comprehensive income.
Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if the amount equivalent to their carrying amount will primarily accumulate
from the sale of the assets rather than their continued use. The prerequisites for classification as held for sale are considered
to be met when the sale is highly probable and the asset item can be immediately sold in its present condition using common
terms, and when the management is committed to the sale and the sale is expected to take place within one year from the
classification.

1.8. Items denominated in foreign currencies
New and amended standards and interpretations applied in the consolidated financial statements as of 1 January 2021:
Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021 – Amendment to IFRS 16
Leases
(effective from 1 April 2021
for financial years starting, at the latest, on or after 1 January 2021)
The amendment allows lessees not to account for rent concessions as lease modifications if they are a direct consequence of
COVID-19 and meet certain conditions. The impact of the amendment on the Group is described in Note 4.3. Leases.
Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2 – Amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, IAS 39 Financial Instruments:
Recognition and Measurement, IFRS 7 Financial Instruments:
Disclosures,
IFRS 4
Insurance Contracts and
IFRS 16
Leases
(effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2021)
The amendments provide guidance for the period after the interest rate benchmark reform in terms of contractual cash flows
and changes in hedging relationships, where the amendments are specifically due to the entry into force of the Benchmarks
Regulation (changes brought about by the IBOR reform). The amendments instruct companies to describe useful information
about the effects of the reform on the financial statements.
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are entered in the accounts at the exchange rate in effect on the date of the
transaction. The closing rates of the European Central Bank are used in the translation of receivables and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies. The translation differences arising from transactions denominated on foreign currencies
and the conversion of financial items are recognised through profit or loss. Foreign exchange gains and losses are included in
the corresponding items above EBIT.
1.9. Adoption of new and amended standards
The consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is the operating and presentation currency of the Group’s
parent company.
After the shares were classified as an asset held for sale, capital gains of MEUR 0.7 have been recognised on the sale of the
shares. The capital gain is recognised in other operating income in the consolidated income statement. After the moment of
classification, the dividend of MEUR 0.3 distributed by Eezy Plc has been recognised in financial income.

Asset and debt items based on contracts with customers
Accounting principles
In the restaurant business, the customers are mainly private individuals and there is also a small number of contract customers.
The amount of profit recorded for the sale of goods at the time of sale comprises the fair value of the compensation that is or
will be received for the sold item, less any VAT as well as volume discounts and other discounts. Most of the Group’s income is
generated from retail sales, where the payment instruments are cash and credit cards. Contract customers’ sales revenue is
recognised immediately after the restaurant services have been provided in connection with invoicing. In the restaurant
business, the revenue for sold gift cards is recognised when the cards are used. Gift card revenue is expected to be
recognised in the following 12 months. Turnover for services is recorded as the Group performs the service and the customer
receives control over it.
The Group tracks sales separately for goods and services. The sale of goods is primarily comprised of food and beverage
sales by restaurant operations to private and corporate customers.
Services include the service sales of restaurants, which consist of ticket and game revenue and the income from selling
advertising and marketing spaces and similar space. Services also include marketing support payments received.
Of asset items based on contracts, a total of 500 thousand was recognised (EUR 1,320 thousand) as credit losses and IFRS 9
credit loss provisions during the period 1 January–31 December 2021. The credit loss provision is discussed in Note 5.9.
The Group has no asset items recognised for the costs of obtaining or fulfilling contracts with customers. The Group’s
contracts with customers do not include restitution or repayment obligations or special warranty terms.
Restaurants sell gift cards, which are presented in current liabilities. Gift card revenue is recognised when the card is used. On
31 December 2021, the value of gift cards sold was EUR 2,627 thousand (EUR 2,260 thousand), and they are expected to be
recognised as revenue during 2022.
The total impact from the company acquisitions carried out in 2021 on trade receivables and other non-interest-bearing
receivables was EUR 127.8 thousand (EUR 337.7 thousand), see Note 3.1.

The Group has received government grants amounting to approximately MEUR 12.2 during the period 1 January–31 December
2021 in Finland, Norway and Denmark to mitigate the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
During the first quarter of 2021 in Finland, the Group recognised business cost support from the Finnish state in the amount of
MEUR 1.0 based on costs that arose during the period 1 November 2020–28 February 2021. In the second quarter of 2021, the
Group recognised MEUR 2.8 in closure compensation and uncovered fixed expense support from the Finnish state for
March–May 2021. The Group did not receive any government grants from the Finnish state in the third quarter. In the fourth
quarter, the company received EUR 0.5 million in Finnish government cost support and EUR 0.2 million in general grants from the
Ministry of Education and Culture.
With the restrictions re-introduced in November 2021, the Danish state covered up to 80 per cent of fixed expenses if turnover
decreased by more than 30 per cent compared to the corresponding period in 2019. The State reimbursed 90 per cent of fixed
costs, depreciation and interest between 17 December 2021 and 17 January 2022 if the company was proactively closed. The
wage subsidy was 90 per cent of the wages of hourly paid workers and 75 per cent of the salaries of monthly wage earners.
Government grants from the Danish state totalled approximately MEUR 3.5 for January–December 2021.
The Norwegian state’s turnover-linked 80% compensation for fixed costs remained in effect until the end of September 2021,
when society was reopened and restaurant restrictions were lifted throughout the country. Companies were also paid wage
support and additional financial support in Norway through municipalities and arts councils. Support received from the
Norwegian state amounted to MEUR 4.2 in January–December 2021.
In Denmark, the state has supported companies in the restaurant industry during the crisis by covering 80 per cent of their fixed
expenses, relative to the decline in turnover. The Danish state also covered 80 per cent of wage expenses starting from March
2021 until the end of June. Starting from the beginning of July 2021, a cost support model entered into force in Denmark,
whereby fixed cost support was extended for restaurants whose turnover is less than 40 per cent of their turnover in the
corresponding period in 2019.
With the restrictions tightening again in December, the Norwegian state covered up to 85 per cent of fixed expenses if turnover
decreased by more than 30 per cent compared to the corresponding period in 2019. Waste was reimbursed at a rate of 100%
and the turnover of cancelled events at a rate of 70%. The wage subsidy (80 per cent up to NOK 30,000/month) and the
reimbursement of fixed costs continued until the end of January 2022.
* Includes closure compensation for medium-sized and large companies in 2021 and the compensation received in 2020 for the
restriction of operations.
** Includes compensation for uncovered fixed expenses in accordance with the 2021 EU state subsidy programme and business
cost support.

Lease income includes lease income for premises. Lease income is recognised as revenue on a straight-line basis over the
lease term. Government grants include government grants from the states of Finland, Norway and Denmark, which are
presented in more detail in Note 2.4. Gains from the sale of tangible assets are recognised in other operating income. The
profit from a sale is determined by the difference between the sale price and the remaining acquisition cost.
Purchases include food, beverages and other supplies and services related to the production of restaurant services. External
services consist mainly of leased restaurant employees.
NoHo Partners announced on 5 January 2021 that it had completed negotiations in accordance with the Act on Cooperation
within Undertakings in order to adapt its operations to the strict restrictions on the restaurant industry put in place by the
Finnish Government. The negotiations were aimed at minimising the financial impacts caused by COVID-19 and adjusting the
Group’s costs to correspond with the decline in volume due to the restrictions on restaurants. The negotiations concerned all of
the Group’s employees in Finland, totalling approximately 1,300 employees.
The negotiations led to changes in the organisational structure, reductions in jobs in the Executive Team, the supervisory level
and administrative duties as well as part-time and full-time temporary layoffs.
Government grants are recognised when it is reasonably certain that the related conditions are met and the grants will be
received. The management estimates that the aforementioned conditions are satisfied for the grants recognised during the
financial period. The Group has not received direct benefits from government support of any other type.
Government grants related to expenses are entered on the balance sheet as deferred income and recognised through profit
or loss under other operating income for the periods corresponding to the expenses that they cover.

Pension obligations are classified as benefit-based or defined contribution plans. The Group's statutory pension plans have
been classified as defined contribution plans. The Group does not have any benefit-based pension plans.
In a defined contribution plan, the Group pays fixed fees for a pension plan to a pension insurance company. The Group is not
legally or constructively obligated to make additional payments if the recipient of the payments does not have sufficient funds
to pay the pension benefits that the employees have earned for the current period or periods preceding it. In a defined
contribution plan, the payments made are recorded into the income statement for the financial period that the charge applies
to.
On 25 February 2021, NoHo Partners Plc announced it was commencing new negotiations in accordance with the Act on Co-
operation within Undertakings in order to adapt its Finnish operations to the restaurant closures imposed by the Finnish
Government effective from 8 March 2021. The purpose of the negotiations was to minimise the financial impacts of the COVID-
19 pandemic. The co-operation negotiations concerned all of the Group’s employees, totalling approximately 1,250 employees
in Finland.
The Group announced on 21 December 2021 that it was laying off almost all of its personnel in Finland, totalling approximately
1,250 employees, on the basis of the decision made during the previous round of co-operation negotiation and commencing
negotiations pursuant to the Act on Co-operation within Undertakings in order to adapt its operations to the tightened
restrictions. The co-operation negotiations concerned all of the Group’s employees, totalling approximately 1,250 employees in
Finland. The restrictions on restaurants also indirectly affected the approximately 2,000 people working for the Group as
leased staff. The negotiations concerned full-time or part-time temporary layoffs of personnel.
As a result of the negotiations, the Group’s organisation was restructured primarily with regard to senior management,
administration and supervisory jobs. The restructuring led to a reduction of 55 jobs as well as 15 jobs being made part-time.
The reductions in jobs concerned two positions in the Group Executive Team as well as management and other jobs in
restaurants as well as administrative specialist positions in sales and marketing. The reductions in jobs were achieved through
voluntary arrangements and redundancies as well as the termination of employment concerning employees who are called in
to work on an irregular basis. The part-time or full-time temporary layoffs concerned approximately 600 employees when the
negotiations ended.
On 30 November 2018, NoHo Partners announced a long-term share-based incentive scheme for the Group’s key personnel.
The purpose of the share-based incentive plan is to align the goals of shareholders and key persons to increase the
company’s value and to commit key persons and offer them a competitive reward system based on company share earnings
and price development.
The Board will confirm the earning criteria, the related target levels and the individuals included in the plan before the start of
each earning period. Any share reward for each earning period can be paid as shares, money or a combination thereof.
Rewards can also be paid for an earning period based on reaching the targets set by the Board and the continuation of the
employment contract. The Board may decide on including new key persons in the system and on their right to the reward such
that the validity of their employment contract is considered when determining the maximum reward. The share reward based
on this system will be paid in the spring following the end of the earning period.

Key estimates and judgements
On 9 November 2020, the Board of Directors of NoHo Partners Plc decided on a special unpaid share issue for key personnel in
order to pay the reward of the first earning period of the share incentive scheme, 1 December 2018–31 December 2019. The
decision on the share issue was made on the basis of the authorisation granted by the Annual General Meeting on 16 June
2020.
A total of 68,597 new shares were issued without payment in the share issue to 9 key employees participating in the share-
based incentive scheme. The issuance of the new shares saw the total number of NoHo Partners Plc’s shares increase to
19,222,270. The new shares were registered in the Trade Register on 13 November 2020.
On 30 December 2019, the company announced that the second 24-month earning period of the long-term share-based
incentive plan for the key personnel will start on 1 January 2020 and end on 31 December 2021. A maximum number of 354,668
NoHo Partners Plc’s shares may be paid to the key employees during the second earning period based on the achieved key
goals in terms of the business operations set by the Board of Directors. The earning criteria set for the second earning period
are the EBIT % of NoHo Partners Plc’s Finnish operations, the company’s share price development and the EBIT % of the foreign
operations during the second earning period.
The fair value of shares given without consideration to key personnel within the share reward system is recorded as an expense
for the period to which the arrangement is related. The fair value is determined at the time of giving the shares, recorded as
staff expenses and listed as earnings under equity. The number of shares that key personnel are expected to become entitled
to is determined based on the assessed completion of the financial conditions set by the Board. The assessments are reviewed
at the end of every reporting period and the adjustments are recognised in personnel expenses through profit or loss and
under equity.
The cost impact recognised due to the Group’s share-based incentive plan is based on the management’s assessment of the
achievement of the financial conditions set by the Board.
The Board of Directors anticipates that the maximum dilutive effect on the number of the company’s registered shares is
approximately 1.83%. The share-based incentive scheme covered 11 key employees of the company’s Executive Team at the
start of the second earning period.
The company announced the amendment of the terms and conditions of the long-term share-based incentive scheme for key
personnel due to the significant change in the business environment caused by the coronavirus pandemic on 30 November
2021. The terms and conditions of the share-based compensation plan were amended by extending the duration of the share-
based incentive plan by one year to 2024 and by adding a new earning period.
NoHo Partners Plc’s Board of Directors has decided on the third earning period of the long-term share-based incentive
scheme for key personnel. The third earning period lasts 13 months and it will start on 1 December 2021 and end on 31
December 2022. The earning criteria for the third earning period are based on NoHo Partners Plc's relative profitability
(operating profit %). The share-based incentive scheme covers eight persons in the third earning period.
A maximum of 281,828 NoHo Partners Plc shares may be paid to the key employees for the third earning period. The value of
the maximum reward at the mid-market rate of the share on 29 November 2021 would be approximately EUR 2.2 million. The
Board of Directors anticipates that was the reward for the third earning period paid fully in shares, the maximum dilutive effect
on the number of the company’s registered shares would be 1.44%.

Key estimates and judgements
The tax costs in the consolidated income statement are based on the taxable income from the financial period, adjustment of
taxes from the previous financial periods and change in deferred tax. Estimates by the management are related to, amongst
other things, to utilising deferred tax assets against taxable income in the coming years.
The tax costs in the income statement are based on the taxable income from the financial period and deferred tax. Taxes are
recorded through profit or loss, except in cases where they are directly related to items registered as equity or other items in
the total comprehensive income. In these cases, their tax effects are also recorded as equity in these items. Tax based on the

On 31 December 2021, the Group had EUR 13,375.9 (10,507.9) thousand in confirmed losses for which a deferred tax asset has not
been recognised because it is not probable that the Group will accrue a taxable income that could be utilised against the losses
before their expiration. The losses in question will expire in 2022–2031.

Accounting principles
2.12. Earnings per share
EUR 1,000
2021 2020
Profit for the financial period attributable to owners of the Company -10 635,4 -26 825,2
Interest on subordinated loan (tax effect taken into account) 0,0 643,4
Weighted average number of shares 19 222 270 19 134 577
Diluted weighted average number of shares 19 222 270 19 134 577
Basic earnings per share (EUR/share) -0,55 -1,44
Diluted earnings per share (EUR/share) -0,55 -1,44
Accounting principles
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit for the financial period attributable to the owners of the parent
company by the weighted average number of outstanding shares for the financial period. In calculating the profit for the
financial period, the uncapitalised interest on the hybrid bond included in equity is deducted from the profit.
Diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of shares by the dilutive effect of potential
share-based payments.
Deferred tax is calculated for any temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases. The largest temporary
differences are generated by the differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of property, plant and equipment
and intangible assets, fair value adjustments of assets and liabilities during combination of business operations, and unused tax
losses. Deferred taxes have been calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted on the date
of the closing of the books.
Deferred tax assets are recorded up to the probable amount of future taxable income against which the temporary difference
can be utilised. The prerequisites for recording deferred tax assets are estimated in this respect on each closing date.
However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised when the asset item or liability in question is one that would be originally
entered into the bookkeeping, there is no combination of business operations involved, and the recognition of such an asset
item or liability does not affect the result of the bookkeeping or the taxable income at the time when the business transaction
takes place.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset the current tax assets and
liabilities at the same time and when the deferred tax assets and liabilities are related to taxes on income collected by the same
recipient, either from the same taxpayer or different taxpayers, when the aim is to realise the assets and liabilities in their net
amounts.
Deferred tax assets and tax liabilities have been calculated using the following tax rates: Finland 20.0%, Norway and Denmark
22.0%.

The amount of the transaction price for Dubliners, DOD, MEO, Rådhuskroken, SFB and Complete Security, acquired in 2019, that
was paid at the time of acquisition was EUR 7,239 thousand. The contracts between NoHo Partners and Crea Diem AS include
put and call options, due in 2023, for redeeming shares in non-controlling interests’ possession. The company has estimated that
the probability of exercising the options is high. The shareholding of non-controlling interests, EUR 1,400 thousand, is presented
as a contingent additional transaction price under liabilities. According to the contracts, the fair value of the companies will be
determined in 2023.
Of the transaction price for the acquisition of The Bird Mother ApS, acquired in 2018, a total of EUR 1,409 thousand was paid at
the time of acquisition. The remainder of the transaction price will be determined according to the actual EBITDA for
January–December 2022 and the multiplier stipulated by the acquisition agreement. The estimated earn-out amounts to EUR
670 thousand.
The acquisitions generated a total of EUR 1,147.8 thousand in goodwill based on expected synergy benefits, establishment into
new market areas and expected gains from combining the acquired restaurants with the Group’s other restaurant concepts and
services. The acquisitions generated a total of EUR 767.2 thousand in fair value allocation in intangible rights.
The depreciation of intangible assets related to acquisitions and the associated change in deferred taxes have been taken into
account in the figures.
The fair value of acquired receivables and the contractual gross amounts correspond to the carrying amounts of the receivables
at the time of the acquisition. The tax-deductible goodwill amounts to EUR 504.8 thousand.

Total value of acquired assets and liabilities at the moment of transfer of control
On 12 February 2020, the company announced the acquisition of Friends & Brgrs Ab Oy’s shares and a special share issue for
cash. The shares were issued as part of the share transaction by which NoHo Partners acquired the majority of Friends & Brgrs Ab
Oy’s shares from the current shareholders. In this share transaction, the transaction price for Friends & Brgrs Ab Oy’s founding
shareholders was paid partly in cash and partly as the company’s shares issued for them in the special share issue. The non-
controlling shareholders of Friends & Brgrs Ab Oy had the right to choose to have the transaction price paid either in cash or as
new shares in the Company issued to them in the special share issue.
A total of 144,983 new shares in the Company were subscribed for in the special share issue in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the share purchase agreement. The subscription price per share was EUR 5.18. The subscription price of the shares
was paid to the Company with apport property using the Friends & Brgrs Ab Oy shares. The Company had a justified financial
reason for deviating from the shareholder's pre-emptive subscription right, since the special share issue enabled the realisation
of the share transaction. According to the Board of Directors’ view, the share transaction supports the growth of the company
and implementation of the strategy.
The transaction was completed on 3 April 2020. NoHo Partners holds 71% of the shares of Friends & Brgrs Ab Oy. The remaining
transaction price liability arising from the acquisition of Friends & Brgrs Ab Oy includes a share pledge to the sellers.

Accounting principles
The shares of non-controlling interests of subsidiaries’ income and equity are presented as separate items in the Group’s
income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and balance sheet.
Transactions completed with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control are treated as transactions with
shareholders. A change in holding results in the adjustment of carrying amounts between the holdings of the Group and non-
controlling interests. The difference between the adjustment made to non-controlling interests’ holding and the paid or
received consideration is recognised in earnings.
The non-controlling interests in an acquired company are recognised at either fair value or the amount corresponding to the
proportion of the non-controlling interests in the net identifiable assets of the company acquired.

Goodwill
Brands and name-use-rights
Transferable rights relating to leases
The Group's intangible assets mainly consist of goodwill generated from the combination of business operations as well as
identified brands and other identifiable intangible assets, such as name-use-rights, non-competition and customer
agreements and beneficial lease agreements.
Goodwill generated from the combination of business operations is recorded at the amount by which the assigned purchase
consideration, the share of non-controlling interests in the object acquired and the previously owned share combined exceed
the fair value of the acquired net assets. Goodwill represents the payment made by the acquiring party in order to accrue
future economic benefit that cannot be identified and recorded as separate asset items.
Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested for possible impairment each year. Goodwill is measured at its original
acquisition cost less any impairment.
Restaurant brands identified when combining business operations are recognised at their fair value at the time of the
acquisition. The fair value of restaurant brands with a limited life is based on the estimated royalty level, and they are recorded
on the balance sheet at the acquisition cost less the accrued depreciations and impairment losses. Brands with a limited life
are depreciated over their estimated useful life as straight-line depreciations based on 3, 4, 5, 6, 10 or 15 years.
The Group has six restaurants with a long tradition in Helsinki which it has protected with registrations. These are some of the
most renowned restaurants in Finland: Kulosaaren Casino has been in operation since 1915, Savoy and Elite since the 1930s and
Palace since the 1950s. In addition, Strindberg and Ravintola Teatteri have operated on Esplanadi for decades with their own,
established concepts. All six restaurants have established an essential position in the Finnish restaurant culture and are
expected to operate for so long that no depreciation time can be determined for them. These restaurants are considered to
have an indefinite useful life because a depreciation time cannot be determined due to their established position. The Group
has a legal right to the registrations, the registrations will be renewed and the costs due to the renewal are immaterial. The fair
value of the restaurant brands with an indefinite useful life is based on the royalty level estimated by the management, and
they are measured at the original acquisition cost less any impairment. Brands with an indefinite useful life are not depreciated;
instead they are tested on a yearly basis similarly to goodwill.
In connection with completed acquisitions, the Group has received the right to use the acquired companies’ names. As part of
the purchase price allocation, the most significant name-use-rights have been assigned a value recognised under intangible
assets.
In Denmark, the leases of restaurant facilities involve transfer rights for which a value can be assigned in connection with an
acquisition. These rights enable access to the leased premises, which is a commonly used practice in Denmark, and, if the
Group desires, it is legally entitled to sell the transfer rights. These transfer rights are considered to have an indefinite useful life
because they are valid indefinitely and the Group is entitled to sell them. The fair value of the transfer rights is based on the
price level in the market, and the rights are recognised under intangible assets. Transfer rights with an indefinite useful life are
not depreciated; instead they are tested on a yearly basis similarly to goodwill.

Impairment testing
The impairment testing conducted on 30 June 2021 is described in NoHo Partners’ half-year report 2021.
The Group tests goodwill annually in order to identify any impairment. Furthermore, the Group tracks internal and external
indications of any impairment of goodwill. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant negative impact on the business
operations of NoHo Partners.
In June 2021, the Group updated its long-term financial targets for the strategy period 2022–2024. Impairment testing was
carried out on 31 December 2021 using the book values and calculations of future cash amounts valid at the time. On 31
December 2021, the recoverable cash flow based on value-in-use calculations exceeded the book value by MEUR 30 (on 30
June 2021 by MEUR 36 and on 31 December 2020 by MEUR 20). The impairment tests on 31 December 2021, 30 June 2021 and 31
December 2020 did not indicate a need for impairment of goodwill or intangible rights with an indefinite useful life.
The residual value, useful life and depreciation method of assets are reviewed, at a minimum, at the end of each financial
period and, if necessary, adjusted to reflect the actual changes in expectations of economic benefit.
The recording of depreciations is stopped when an intangible asset is classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group
classified as held for sale) in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.
The Group's intangible assets mainly consist of goodwill generated from the combination of business operations as well as
identified brands and other identifiable intangible assets, such as name-use-rights, non-competition and customer
agreements and beneficial lease agreements.
When combining business operations, the management conducts assessments concerning, for example, future cash flows from
the acquired business, purchase price allocations, brand value and useful life, compliance with the conditions of brands with an
indefinite useful life, and synergy benefits gained through acquisitions.
The increase in the difference between the recoverable amount based on value in use and the carrying amount between the
financial statements date of 31 December 2020 and the financial statements date of 31 December 2021 is due to the gradual
lifting of restrictions during the reporting period and the significant increase in vaccination coverage, which is expected to have
a significant impact on the number of infections and restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which will have a positive
impact on the Group’s business environment. The very quick recovery of the restaurant business when restrictions are lifted is an
indication that this is a temporary market disruption and it has not had a significant impact on the Group’s long-term revenue
generating expectations and cash flow.
With the exception of the aforementioned brands with an indefinite useful life, the acquisition cost of intangible assets is
recognised as a depreciation expense in the income statement based on the following estimated useful lives:
Other intangible assets are only recognised when they are likely to result in future economic benefit to the company and their
acquisition cost can be reliably determined. Other intangible assets with a limited useful life that have been identified during
the combination of business operations are recorded separately from goodwill on the balance sheet if they fit the definition of
an asset and can be itemised, or if they are created by agreements or legal rights and their fair value can be reliably
determined.
Fair value recognised in intangible assets has been determined for the following items, amongst others, in connection with
acquisitions:

Discount rate
The forecast cash flows are based on the capacity of the group of cash flow-generating units that the Group has had at the
time of testing. Therefore, expansion investments have not been taken into account in the cash flow estimates. The Group's
cash flow-generating units or groups thereof operate in the restaurant business. The expansion of the business into new areas
would expand the capacity, and the related investments or resulting gains are not included in the calculations.
The EBIT is based on estimates of a swift recovery of private consumption
and gradual recovery of corporate and event market following the gradual
phasing out of the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions and estimates of the
realisation of the cost savings achieved by the company in the post-
pandemic times. Due to the significant increase in vaccination coverage
and the virus becoming milder, the Group expects the market to return to
normal in 2022.
A peer company analysis was utilised in determining the discount rate.
Assumption
The impairment calculations are based on cash flow predictions and estimates for gradual market recovery following the lifting
of restrictions during the second quarter of 2022, drawn up by the Group Executive Team and approved by the Group Board of
Directors during the COVID-19 pandemic. The length of the forecast period used for the impairment calculations is 4 years.
Description
The increased turnover for the upcoming years is based on the estimates
defined for the review period on the swift recovery of private consumption
and gradual recovery of the corporate and event market following the
gradual phasing out of the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. Due to the
significant increase in vaccination coverage and the virus becoming milder,
the Group expects the market to return to normal in 2022.
In impairment testing, the book value of cash flow generating units containing goodwill and other intangible assets with
indefinite useful life are compared with their recoverable amounts. The recoverable amount is the fair value of the group of cash-
generating units less the costs of selling, or the utility value, whichever is higher. If the recoverable amount is lower than the
book value entered on the balance sheet, the difference is recognised as an impairment loss that decreases income. For the
impairment testing, the recoverable amount used has been the utility value calculated by means of the discounted cash flow
(DCF) method.
Goodwill
Leases
Goodwill increased during the financial period mainly as a result of the acquisition of the Allas Sea Pool restaurant business and

Key estimates and judgements
No impairment losses have been recognised for any presented financial period based on completed impairment testing. On 31
December 2021, the recoverable cash flow based on value-in-use calculations exceeded the book value by more than MEUR
30. The management has prepared sensitivity analyses for essential factors and, based on the analyses, the recoverable
amount equals the book value if the assumptions change one at a time:
Maintaining the calculated levels of utility value after the markets have recovered requires that, in accordance with the
company strategy, sales revenue and EBIT are kept at an acceptable level, competitiveness is maintained through the
continuous monitoring of pricing and cost management as well as the development of new restaurant concepts.
On each closing date, the Group evaluates whether there are signs of impairment in the value of an asset item. If these signs
should appear, the recoverable amount for the asset item is estimated. Furthermore, recoverable amounts are estimated each
year for the following asset items, regardless of whether there are signs of impairment: goodwill, intangible assets with an in
definite useful life, and incomplete intangible assets. The need to recognise any impairment is examined on the level of the cash
flow-generating unit or units; that is, the lowest level that is mostly independent of the other units and whose cash flow can be
separated from the other cash flows.
The recoverable amount is the fair value of the asset item less the costs of selling, or the utility value, whichever is higher. The
utility value refers to the estimated deferred net cash flows that are available from the asset item or cash flow-generating unit,
discounted to their present value. The discount rate is the rate before tax that presents the market's view of the value of money
over time, and the special risks related to the asset item or cash flow-generating unit. The discount rate takes into account
sector-specific factors.
An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset item is greater than its recoverable amount. The
impairment loss is immediately recognised in the income statement. The impairment loss of a cash-flow generating unit is
primarily allocated to reduce the goodwill of the cash flow-generating unit and, secondly, it is used to impair the unit's other
asset items on a pro rata basis. The useful life of a depreciable asset item is reassessed when an impairment loss is recognised.
An impairment loss recorded for an asset item is reversed in case a change occurs in the estimates that have been used to
determine the recoverable amount of the asset item. However, impairment loss is only reversed up to the carrying amount of
the commodity without any impairment loss. Impairment loss for goodwill is not reversed under any circumstances.
Drawing up calculations using the DCF model requires forecasts and assumptions, the most significant of which involve turnover
growth, cost development, level of maintenance investments and changes in the discount rate. It is possible that the
assumptions related to the cash flow forecasts are not realised, and the resulting impairments of goodwill or non-competition
agreements may have a materially adverse effect on the income derived from the company's operations and on its financial
position during the present review period and future review periods.
In impairment testing, the recoverable amounts are estimated using assumptions related to budgets, forecasts and terminal
periods. The sensitivity of the calculations is analysed with regard to changes in sales revenue growth, the development of
operating costs, EBIT and the discount rate, amongst other things. Changes in these estimates or in the structure or number of
the cash flow generating units or groups of units may lead to impairment in the fair values of assets or goodwill.

Impairment of tangible assets
An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset item is greater than its recoverable amount. The
impairment loss is immediately recognised in the income statement. The impairment loss of a cash-flow generating unit is
primarily allocated to reduce the goodwill of the cash flow-generating unit and, secondly, it is used to impair the unit's other
asset items on a pro rata basis. The useful life of a depreciable asset item is reassessed when an impairment loss is recognised.
An impairment loss recorded for an asset item is reversed in case a change occurs in the estimates that have been used to
determine the recoverable amount of the asset item. However, impairment loss is only reversed up to the carrying amount of
the commodity without any impairment loss.
Property, plant and equipment are measured at their original acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment.
Property, plant and equipment are recognised on the balance sheet when they are likely to result in future economic benefit to
the Group and the acquisition cost can be reliably determined.
The original acquisition cost includes the immediate costs for the purchase. Expenditure accumulated later is only included in
the carrying amount or recorded as a separate commodity if it is likely that the future economic benefit related to the
commodity will be to the benefit of the Group and if the acquisition cost of the commodity can be reliably determined. Repair
and maintenance costs are recorded through profit or loss for the period during which they were realised. If a fixed asset
commodity consists of several parts with useful lives of different lengths, each part is processed as a separate commodity. As is
typical for the sector, property, plant and equipment also include periodic modification and renovation costs of the rental
premises of restaurants; these consist of the interior finishing work of rental premises, for example.
The Group’s property, plant and equipment are depreciated over the estimated useful life of the commodity in question.
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated as straight-line depreciation, where the acquisition cost is
recognised as expense over the useful life. Land and water areas are not depreciated.
The residual values of tangible assets and their useful lives are verified at least once per year on the closing date, and adjusted
by impairment when necessary. On each closing date, the Group evaluates whether there are signs of impairment of an asset.
If the carrying amount of an asset item is higher than its recoverable amount, the carrying amount of the asset item will be
immediately lowered to match the recoverable amount. When property, plant and equipment are classified as held for sale in
accordance with the IFRS 5 standard, the recording of depreciation is discontinued.
The gains and losses from the sale of tangible assets are included in the income statement as other operating income or
expenses. The profit or loss from a sale is determined by the difference between the sale price and the remaining acquisition
cost.
On each closing date, the Group evaluates whether there are signs of impairment in the value of an asset item. If these signs
should appear, the recoverable amount for the asset item is estimated. The need to recognise any impairment is examined on
the level of the cash flow-generating unit or units; that is, the lowest level that is mostly independent of the other units and
whose cash flow can be separated from the other cash flows.
The recoverable amount is the fair value of the asset item less the costs of selling, or the utility value, whichever is higher. The
utility value refers to the estimated deferred net cash flows that are available from the asset item or cash flow-generating unit,
discounted to their present value. The discount rate is the rate before tax that presents the market's view of the value of money
over time, and the special risks related to the asset item or cash flow-generating unit.

During the review period, the Group’s rent concessions amounted to approximately MEUR 2.8. Most of the rent concessions
concern international businesses. The Group has applied the practical expedient stipulated by the amendment to not treat
rent concessions granted due to the COVID-19 pandemic as changes in leases under IFRS 16. Starting from the fourth quarter
of 2021, the Group has applied a practical relief to equipment leases, in accordance with which the Group combines leases
with similar characteristics in the portfolio. The Group regularly assesses the size and composition of the portfolio of
equipment leases. The incremental borrowing rate applied to the changes in leases is 5.0%.

Accounting principles
The Group as a lessee
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis.
Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:
Amounts expected to be payable by the Group under residual value guarantees
Payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising that option.
The liability also includes leases based on extension options that are relatively certain to be exercised.
Right-of-use assets at cost
The amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
Any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
Any initial direct costs
Restoration costs
The company will use the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate of interest to define the discount rate of future lease payments.
The management has estimated the incremental borrowing rate in accordance with what the interest rate would be if the
asset were obtained with outside financing. The incremental borrowing rate has been specified separately for each asset,
considering the risk-free interest rate, lease term, economic environment and underlying asset. The incremental borrowing
rate will be re-assessed for each new lease and the changing situations specified in the standard.
The Group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate, which are not
included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate take
effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset. Lease payments are allocated between
principal and finance cost. The finance cost is recognised through profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a
constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line
basis. If the Group is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the
underlying asset’s useful life.
The exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option
Fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable
Variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate and which are initially measured using the index or
rate at the time of signing the agreement
The Group has leased many of the restaurant and office premises that it uses. The terms of the leases vary from short leases
of less than one year to long leases of more than ten years. The agreements are either fixed leases with an index condition or
turnover-based. Some of the lease agreements are valid until further notice, with notice periods ranging from one to six
months.
Agreements can include lease components and non-lease components. The contractual consideration is allocated to the
lease component and non-lease components based on their relative stand-alone prices. However, the Group has decided
not to separate the components for leases pertaining to properties in which the Group is the lessee. They are treated as
individual lease components in the Group’s accounting.
The terms of lease agreements are negotiated on a case-by-case basis, and they include a large number of various terms.
The leases do not include covenants other than the lessee’s security deposit interest related to the leased assets. Leased
assets cannot be used as security for loans.
The lease term of the lease of an individual restaurant operating on leased premises determines the lease term lengths of
any underlying assets on said premises that are based on a basic non-fixed-term lease or a shorter lease. For example, if the
lease term of restaurant premises is 4 years, the lease term of beverage taps based on a non-fixed-term lease or a shorter
lease is also specified to be 4 years.

The Group as a lessor
Key estimates and judgements
The Group’s leases often include the option to extend the lease term. The management has made an estimate of the
utilisation of the extension options, and some extension options will not be utilised for business and financial reasons.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and vehicles and all leases of low-value assets are recognised on
a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-
value assets comprise IT equipment and small items of office furniture.
The management has estimated the amount of restoration costs in any leases that include provisions regarding restoration
requirements. The restoration costs entered in a right-of-use asset are based on estimates, the specific amount of which
cannot be known in advance, and their scale has been estimated based on previously realised restoration costs. Restoration
costs have primarily consisted of dismantling commercial premises or similar. Restoration costs will be recognised in a right-of-
use asset and provisions by discounting them with risk-free interest.
The management makes estimates concerning, among others, the leases to be included in the arrangement, size of low-
value contracts, utilisation of lease extension options and the incremental borrowing rate.
Commodities leased out are included in property, plant and equipment on the balance sheet. They are depreciated over
their useful life, similarly to property, plant and equipment used by the Group for similar purposes. Lease income is recorded
into the income statement as annuities over the lease term. The Group is not a lessor in any finance leases. The Group re-
leases certain of its premises, which constitute the majority of the Group's rental income.

The carrying amounts of trade receivables and other receivables correspond to their fair value. The balance sheet values
correspond to the best estimate of the monetary amount that is the maximum credit risk if the counterparties cannot fulfil their
obligations related to the receivables. The fair values of receivables are presented in Note 5.3.
Total
In the reporting period, an expense of EUR 47,595.1 thousand (EUR 43,896.7 thousand) was recognised in the income statement
for materials and supplies and for changes in inventories.
EUR 1,000
Inventories are measured according to their acquisition cost or their net realisable value, whichever is lower. Acquisition cost is
determined using a weighted average price method. Acquisition cost includes the immediate expenses for the purchase less
value added tax. The net realisable value is the estimated selling price that can be achieved during ordinary course of business
less the costs of selling. Inventories include ingredients for restaurant food as well as alcohol and tobacco products.
The accounting principles for sales are presented in Note 2.1. Trade receivables are recorded in the books at the amount of the
original sale. The principles of credit risk management are described in Note 5.9. The Group applies the simplified model
allowed by IFRS 9 to recognise impairment of trade receivables using a provision matrix. In addition, impairment is recognised if
there is other evidence of the debtor’s insolvency, bankruptcy or liquidation. Impairment is recognised as an expense in other
operating expenses. If an item previously recognised as an expense is subsequently settled, it is recognised as a decrease in
other operating expenses.

Accounting principles
A provision is recorded when the Group has a judicial and constructive obligation for payment on the basis of a past event, the
realisation of the obligation is probable and the size of the obligation can be reliably estimated. The provisions mainly include
termination costs for closed sites. The provisions for the comparison year mainly included termination costs incurred as a result
of the co-operation negotiations.
Trade payables arise when acquiring inventories, fixed assets and goods and services from the Group's suppliers. Trade
payables are classified as current liabilities. Trade payables are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently measured at
amortised acquisition cost. The book value of trade payables is considered to correspond to their fair value due to their short
maturity. The fair values of trade payables and other liabilities are presented in Note 5.3. The most significant items in accrued
expenses consist of the periodic accrual of purchase invoices.

The aim of the Group's capital management (equity vs. credit capital) is to establish an optimal capital structure that can
support business operations by ensuring normal operational prerequisites, and to increase shareholder value in the long term.
The capital structure can be mainly affected by means of dividend distribution, subordinated loans and share issues. The
Group can also decide to sell its assets in order to reduce its liabilities. The managed capital is the equity indicated in the
consolidated balance sheet. An optimal capital structure also reduces capital costs.

Financial assets must be measured, after their initial recognition, at amortised acquisition cost or fair value based on the
company’s business model in terms of managing financial assets and on the characteristics of contractual cash flows relating
to the financial assets.
Financial instruments, which are held within a business model whose objective is collecting contractual cash flows and whose
contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, are measured at the
amortised acquisition cost after the initial recognition.
Financial instruments, which are held within a business model whose objective is reached through collecting contractual cash
flows and selling debt instruments and whose cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount

The amortised acquisition cost of the receivables corresponds to their fair value because the effects of discounting are not

When determining the fair values for the financial assets and liabilities presented in the table, the following price
quotations, assumptions and measurement models were used:
Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss mainly comprise Finnish holdings and Finnish unquoted shares.
Unquoted share investments are measured at fair value. Financial assets measured at fair value are either sellable on the
secondary market or their measurement uses the bid price on the counterparty's closing date or other public information. The
Group exercises judgement in choosing the measurement method to apply and the assumptions used in measurement based
on prevailing market practices and circumstances.

Fair value hierarchy for financial assets measured at fair value
Hierarchy levels
Level 1

Level 3
Accounting principles
Financial assets
The fair values are based on the quoted prices of similar asset items or liabilities on the market.
The fair values of the instruments are based on input data concerning the asset item or liability that is not
based on verifiable market data; instead, they are largely based on the management's estimates and
their use in generally accepted measurement models.
The fair values for the instruments are based on significantly different input information than the quoted
prices at level 1, but they are, nevertheless, based on information (i.e. prices) or indirect information (i.e.
derived from prices). In determining the fair value of these instruments, the Group uses generally
accepted measurement models whose input information is largely based on verifiable market data.
If a balance sheet item is not measured at fair value, the following fair value measurement methods are used: the fair value of
non-current interest-bearing liabilities, including their current portion, is based primarily on quotes obtained from third-party
pricing services (Level 2). The fair value of other assets and liabilities, including loan assets and liabilities, is primarily based on
discounted cash flow analysis (Level 2). The fair value of current assets and liabilities is estimated to correspond to their carrying
amount due to the low credit risk and short maturity. There were no transfers between the fair value hierarchy levels 1, 2 and 3
during the financial period.
The Group's financial assets are classified into the following groups according to the IFRS 9 standard: financial assets
recognised at amortised acquisition cost, financial assets recognised at fair value through other comprehensive income and
financial assets recognised at fair value through profit or loss. The classification is performed on the basis of the purpose of the
acquisition of the financial assets, and they are classified during their original acquisition.
An item belonging to financial assets is derecognised when the Group waives its contractual rights to the item, the rights are
dissolved or the Group loses control of the item.
Financial assets recognised at amortised acquisition cost include financial assets which the company intends to retain until the
end of the contract and whose cash flow is generated from payments of principal and interest income. Loans and other
receivables are non-derivative financial assets that are generated by handing over goods, services or money to the debtor.
Loans and receivables are not quoted on the marketplace, and the payments related to them are either fixed or they can be
determined. Their measurement basis is the amortised acquisition cost using the effective interest method. On the balance
sheet, they are included in the trade and other receivables group as current or non-current assets according to their nature;
they are non-current if they fall due after more than 12 months.
Financial assets recognised at fair value through other comprehensive income include debt instruments for which the company
intends to collect contractual cash flows and sell them. The financial assets in this group are non-derivative assets that have
been expressly classified into this group or that have not been classified into any others. They are non-current assets, unless
the intention is to retain them for less than 12 months after the closing date; in this case, they are included in current assets. The
group’s financial assets may comprise shares and holdings. They are measured at fair value or, if fair value cannot be reliably
determined, at their acquisition cost. Changes in the fair value of financial assets are recorded as equity in the fair value
reserve under other comprehensive income taking into account the tax effects. Accumulated changes in fair value are moved
from equity into the income statement when the investment is sold or whenever its value has degraded such that an
impairment loss must be recognised for the investment.
Financial assets recognised at fair value through profit or loss include those financial assets that do not meet the criteria for
other groups. The group of financial assets recognised at fair value through profit or loss includes financial assets that have
been acquired to be held for trading, such as derivatives and interest funds, or that are classified to be recognised at fair value
through profit or loss during their original recognition. Unrealised and realised gains and losses resulting from changes in fair
value are recognised in the income statement for the financial period during which they are generated.
Transaction expenses are included in the original carrying amount of the financial assets mentioned above whenever the item
is not measured at fair value. All purchases and sales of financial assets are entered on their trade date, which is the date when
the Group commits to purchasing or selling the asset item.

Financial liabilities
Impairment of financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash money, money on bank accounts, bank deposits that may be withdrawn upon
request, as well as other current and highly liquid investments that can be easily converted into a predetermined cash amount
and that carry a low risk of value changes. Items classified as cash and cash equivalent have at most three months' maturity
from the date of acquisition. Cash and cash equivalents are recorded at amortised acquisition cost on the balance sheet.
According to IFRS 9 standard, the Group's financial liabilities are included in the financial liabilities measured at amortised
acquisition cost; they consist of loans from financial institutions, trade payables and other financial liabilities. Financial liabilities
are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction expenses are included in the original carrying amount of the financial liabilities.
Later, all financial liabilities are measured at amortised acquisition cost using the effective interest method. Financial liabilities
are included in both the non-current and current liabilities.
On each closing date, the Group estimates whether objective evidence exists of the impairment of an individual financial asset
or a group thereof. If the fair value of share investments has fallen substantially below their acquisition cost for a period defined
by the Group, this is considered evidence of impairment of the share in question. If evidence of impairment exists, the loss
accumulated in the fair value reserve is moved to the income statement. The impairment loss of equity convertible investments
classified in the group of financial assets recognised at fair value through other comprehensive income is not reversed by
means of the income statement, whereas a later reversal of an impairment loss that involves interest instruments is recognised
through profit or loss.
The Group has applied an impairment model according to IFRS 9, where impairment is recognised based on expected credit
losses. The Group implemented the simplified model enabled by the standard and applies the provision matrix.

Value at the beginning of the financial period
The debt of EUR 10 million agreed with Finnish Industry Investment Ltd (Tesi) with a right to conversion is unsecured. The annual
interest on the debt is 10 per cent. Interest will fall due on the due date together with the principal. It is possible to repay the
debt partly or in full before the due date. Tesi has the right, but not the obligation, to convert the debt and its interests partly or
in full into a maximum of 2,400,000 NoHo Partners Plc’s new shares in one or more instalments at any time after the due date. In
a conversion situation, the conversion price per share is the average share price in Nasdaq Helsinki weighted with trading
volumes of the previous three months before the conversion grounds.
The fair values of financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are presented in Note 5.3. No
financial assets have fallen due. No impairment has been recognised on financial assets.
There are no significant credit risk concentrations associated with cash and cash equivalents. The balance sheet values
correspond to the best estimate of the monetary amount that is the maximum credit risk if the counterparties cannot fulfil their
obligations related to the receivables.
The implementation of NoHo Partners’ strategy and the financing of its business growth is partly dependent on outside
financing. The company continuously strives to assess and monitor the amount of financing required for business in order to
have sufficient liquidity to finance operations and repay maturing loans. Changes in the macroeconomic environment or the
general financing market situation may negatively affect the company’s liquidity as well as the availability, price and other
terms and conditions of financing. Changes in the availability of equity and credit capital financing and in the terms and
conditions of available financing may affect the company’s ability to invest in business development and growth in the future.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant negative impact on the business operations and liquidity of NoHo Partners.
The company and its main financiers negotiated a financing package, signed on 15 February 2021, in which the bridge
financing, which was negotiated at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the current financiers’ existing loans were
combined into one long-term financing package. The financing package consists of a five-year programme in which loan
instalments were MEUR 12 during the financial period and will be approximately MEUR 22 during the 2022 financial period. The
purpose of the financing package negotiated is to secure the company’s long-term financing position and enable
implementing the reconstruction programme after the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to the new financing programme, the
due date of the convertible loan of MEUR 10 Finnish Industry Investment Ltd (Tesi) granted in spring 2020 was moved to May
2022.

The Group does not have material extended debt repayment periods in effect.
NoHo Partners aims to ensure adequate financial assets to meet its business and financing needs. When the COVID-19
pandemic hit, the Group shifted from profit-oriented decision-making to cash flow-oriented decision-making. As the COVID-19
pandemic eases and the market reopens, the Group is gradually returning from cash flow-oriented decision-making to profit-
oriented decision-making. The Group’s financing needs will be covered by optimising working capital and through external
financing arrangements to ensure that the Group has sufficient liquidity or unwithdrawn committed credit arrangements at its
disposal. The operational monitoring and management of liquidity risk are centralised in the Group’s finance department,
where the sufficiency of financing is managed based on rolling forecasts.
The COVID-19 pandemic and the restrictions introduced by governments have had a significant impact on consumer
behaviour. Compared to the demand shock caused by the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in spring 2020, the Group’s
management expects that the current situation will not involve a similar change in consumer behaviour that would cause an
unexpected liquidity risk due to negative working capital becoming payable. However, unexpected legislative amendments,
such as the temporary implementation of the Emergency Powers Act and lockdown, might have a negative effect on the
company’s liquidity.
According to the present view of the Group’s management, the Group’s current financing arrangements together with the
cumulative cash flow of operations as well as existing liquid assets and available limits cover the Group’s working capital
requirements for the next 12 months, in spite of the potential prolongation of the uncertain market situation caused by the
COVID-19 pandemic, assuming the government does not significantly restrict the Group’s abilities to carry out its restaurant
operations as described in Note 1.4 under “Going concern assumption”.
On 31 December 2021, the Group’s cash and cash equivalents totalled MEUR 6.4 and the unwithdrawn loan and account limits
available to the Group amounted to MEUR 7.1. In addition, on 31 December 2021, the Group owned 5,864,745 shares in the listed
company Eezy Plc, corresponding to a holding of 23.4 per cent. At the closing share price on 31 December 2021, the market
value of this shareholding exceeded MEUR 35.

Accounting principles
A provision is recognised for a contract that generates a loss when the necessary expenditures required to fulfil the obligations
outweigh the benefits received from the contract.
A contingent liability is a possible liability arising from past events whose existence will only be confirmed if an uncertain event
outside the Group's control is realised. A present obligation that is not likely to cause a payment obligation or whose size
cannot be reliably determined, is also considered to be a contingent liability. Contingent liabilities are presented in the notes.
Total
Total
A provision is recognised when the Group has a judicial or constructive obligation for payment on the basis of a past event, the
realisation of the obligation is probable and the size of the obligation can be reliably estimated. Provisions are measured at the
present value required to cover the obligation. The provision amounts are estimated on each closing date, and their amounts
are adjusted to correspond to the best possible estimate at the moment of inspection.

5.9. Financial risk management
Risk management principles and process
Interest rate risk
Liquidity risk
Credit risk
As regards receivables, the Group does not have any material credit risk concentration, since the receivables consist of several
items. Risks related to trade receivables and other receivables are minimised using short payment terms, customer-specific
monitoring of trade receivables and effective collection.
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument is unable to meet its obligations, thereby creating a financial loss
for the other party. The Group's operating procedures define the creditworthiness requirements for the customers'
counterparties. The primary method of payment within the Group is cash. The credit risk management and credit control have
been centralised to be handled by the Group's financial management.
The Group and its operating activities are exposed to certain financial risks. A key principle of the Group's risk management is
the unpredictability of the financial markets and the aim to minimise its adverse effects on the Group's net income. The Group's
financial management identifies, estimates and tracks risks and, whenever necessary, acquires the instruments to hedge the
Group against the risks.
The Group's financing policy guides all of its financing transactions. The main risks associated with the financing market are
explained below.
Interest rate risk means the risk of variations in the fair value of a financial instrument or in future cash flows due to changes in
market rates of interest. The Group's interest rate risk is mainly caused by non-current loans that have been taken out with a
variable interest rate. The Group is not presently hedging against the interest rate risk. The interest rates for loans vary
according to the 1–6 month Euribor rates plus margins of 2.25–3.90%. The interest rate on the Finnish Industry Investment Ltd
(Tesi) loan is 10.0%.
The Group's income and operating cash flows are mostly independent of the variations in the market rates of interest. The
Group's main exposure to the interest rate risk is a result of the variable interest rates, and the risk is mainly considered to relate
to the loan portfolio. On the closing date, the majority of the Group's loans had variable interest rates.
Liquidity risk is related to ensuring and maintaining sufficient funding for the Group. The Group strives to constantly assess and
track the amount of funding required by the business, for example by performing a monthly analysis of the utilisation rate of the
restaurants, the development of sales and investment needs, in order to ensure that the Group has sufficient liquid assets to
fund the operations and repay loans that fall due. The CFO analyses the need for possible additional financing.
The aim is to ensure the availability and flexibility of Group financing through sufficient credit limit reserves, a balanced loan
maturity distribution and sufficiently long loan periods as well as using several financial institutions and forms of financing, when
necessary. The Group's financing activities determine the optimum cash liquidity.
At the end of December 2021, the Group’s current financial liabilities amounted to MEUR 46.4 (MEUR 73.6). Current financial
liabilities at the balance sheet date include an item of MEUR 4.0 from the commercial paper programme due in the first quarter
of 2022.
At the end of the year, cash and cash equivalents amounted to MEUR 6.4 (MEUR 3.1), in addition to which the Group had access
to undrawn confirmed account credit limits amounting to approximately MEUR 7.1 (MEUR 11.0). In addition, on 31 December 2021,
the Group owned 5,864,745 shares in the listed company Eezy Plc, corresponding to a holding of 23.4 per cent. At the closing
share price on 31 December 2021, the market value of this shareholding exceeded MEUR 35.
During the year, the Group raised MEUR 7.0 in new long-term financing for its investments and business operations. The loan
periods for these financing arrangements vary between 5–6 years. The average annual interest rate for the Group's gross
interest-bearing liabilities in 2021 was approximately 2.97% (2.60%).
The most important loan covenants are reported to the creditors each quarter. If the Group violates the terms of the loan
covenant, the creditor may require faster repayment of the loans. The management regularly monitors the fulfilment of the loan
covenant terms. The company signed new financing agreements in February 2021 and redefined the loan covenants. The
covenant terms are related to specific operating cash flow targets, the equity ratio and the amount of investments. The
Group's financial indicators (covenants) will next be reviewed on 30 June 2022.
The Group's management has not identified any significant concentrations of liquidity risk in financial assets or sources of
financing.

Key estimates and judgements
The provision matrix is established based on the age distribution of the open trade receivables and other receivables by using
the percentages determined by the Group.
During the financial year, the Group has reviewed the provision rates used in calculating credit loss provisions to reflect the
COVID-19 situation. The maturity distribution of the receivables is presented in Note 4.6.
The balance sheet values of the receivables correspond to the best estimate of the monetary amount that is the maximum
credit risk if the counterparties cannot fulfil their obligations related to the receivables.
Currency risk refers to profit, balance sheet and cash flow uncertainty due to changes in currency exchange rates. During the
financial period 2019, the Group expanded its business to Norway and will be subjected to a transaction risk in relation to the
Norwegian krone in the future. The transaction risk is related to the currency flows of sales and expenses. Unlike the Danish
krone, the Norwegian krone is not fixed against the euro, which is the Group’s home currency. While the exchange rate of the
Danish krone is fixed against the euro, it may fluctuate 2.25% in either direction.
The subsidiaries’ intragroup loans and deposits are denominated in the subsidiaries’ home currencies as well as in euros. The
Group does not hedge intragroup loans, deposits or the subsidiaries’ equity. Expenses and purchases are largely denominated
in euros. The conversion of the subsidiaries’ equity into euros resulted in a translation difference of EUR -191.5 thousand (EUR
175.3 thousand) in the financial year.
The risks related to the trade receivables and other receivables are minimised by means of terms of payment of the
receivables, customer-specific monitoring of trade receivables, effective collection and checking of customers' creditworthiness
requirements and, in part, also through various collateral arrangements. The management actively monitors the development
of significant customer balances. Estimates and judgement are required in determining the value of loss allowances at each
reporting date. When determining loss allowances, the management specifically analyses trade receivables and historical
losses, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, past due balances, current trends and changes in customer
payment terms. In addition to past events and current conditions, reasonable and justifiable forecasts affecting collectability
are considered when determining the amount of loss allowances.

Special rights
Dividends
Authorisation to purchase the company’s own shares
Accounting principles
The authorisation can be used, for example, to implement mergers or acquisitions or financing arrangements, to develop the
company’s equity structure, to improve the liquidity of the company’s shares, to implement the company’s incentive schemes
or for other purposes decided by the company’s Board of Directors. Under the authorisation, a maximum of 568,950 shares
may be issued for the implementation of the company’s incentive schemes, which corresponds to approximately 3.0% of all
registered shares in the company on the date of the notice convening the AGM.
Liability for dividend distribution to the Group's shareholders is recorded for the period during which the general meeting
approved the dividend.
NoHo Partners Plc’s Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting convening on 27 April 2022 that, based on the
confirmed balance sheet for the financial period that ended on 31 December 2021, no dividend be distributed.
Under the authorisation, a maximum total of 3,000,000 shares may be issued in one or more tranches, corresponding to
approximately 15.6 per cent of all of the company’s registered shares calculated using the share count on the publication date
of the notice of the Annual General Meeting.
Share issues and/or the issue of option rights or other special rights can be carried out in deviation from the shareholders’ pre-
emptive subscription right (special share issue).
Share capital consists solely of ordinary shares. The immediate expenditure from the issue or acquisition of new shares or other
equity instruments less any tax is recorded as equity, wherein it reduces the purchase consideration received for the issue. If
the company buys back its equity instruments, the acquisition cost of the instruments is deducted from equity.
As part of the financing package, the Group agreed on a debt of MEUR 10 with a right to conversion with Finnish Industry
Investment Ltd (Tesi). Tesi’s debt does not require collateral and it will fall due 18 months after the drawdown of the debt. Tesi
has the right, but not the obligation, to convert the debt and its interests partly or in full into a maximum of 2,400,000 NoHo
Partners Plc’s new shares in one or more instalments at any time after the due date. In a conversion situation, the conversion
price per share is the average share price in Nasdaq Helsinki weighted with trading volumes of the previous three months
before the conversion grounds.
The shares shall be purchased for financing or carrying out possible corporate acquisitions or other arrangements, to
implement incentive schemes within the company or for other purposes decided upon by the Board of Directors. The maximum
amount of the shares to be purchased is equivalent to approximately 4.2 per cent of all the shares and votes of the company
calculated using the share count on the publication date of the notice of the AGM.
The authorisation will remain in force until the end of the next AGM, but for no more than 18 months from the AGM’s resolution
on the authorisation.
The AGM of 21 April 2021 decided to withdraw the previous unused authorisations to purchase the company’s own shares and
authorise the Board to decide upon the purchase of a maximum of 800,000 of the company’s own shares in one or several
tranches using the company’s unrestricted equity under the following conditions:
Under the authorisation, the Board of Directors may issue new shares or transfer shares held by the company. The Board of
Directors is authorised to decide on all other conditions of the issuance of shares and/or option rights or other special rights.
The shares shall be purchased in public trading organised by Nasdaq Helsinki Oy and, therefore, the purchase takes place by
private placing and not in proportion to the shares owned by the shareholders, and the consideration to be paid for the shares
shall be the market price of NoHo Partners Plc’s share at the time of purchasing.
The Board of Directors shall decide on the other matters related to the purchase of treasury shares. The authorisation will
remain in force until the end of the next AGM, but for no more than 18 months from the AGM’s resolution on the authorisation.
Authorisation to decide on issuance of shares and/or the issuance of option rights and other special rights entitling to
shares
The AGM decided to withdraw previous share issue authorisations and authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the
issuance of shares and/or option rights or other special rights entitling to shares as follows:

The company announced the amendment of the terms and conditions of the long-term share-based incentive scheme for
key personnel due to the significant change in the business environment caused by the coronavirus pandemic on 30
November 2021. The terms and conditions of the share-based compensation plan were amended by extending the duration
of the share-based incentive scheme by one year to 2024 and by adding a new earning period. The introduction of the share-
based incentive scheme was announced on 30 November 2018.
NoHo Partners Plc’s Board of Directors has decided on the third earning period of the long-term share-based incentive
scheme for key personnel. The third earning period lasts 13 months and it will start on 1 December 2021 and end on 31
December 2022. The earning criteria for the third earning period are based on NoHo Partners Plc's relative profitability
(operating profit %). The share-based incentive scheme covers eight persons in the third earning period.
A maximum of 281,828 NoHo Partners Plc shares may be paid to the key employees for the third earning period. The value of
the maximum reward at the mid-market rate of the share on 29 November 2021 would be approximately EUR 2.2 million. The
Board of Directors anticipates that was the reward for the third earning period paid fully in shares, the maximum dilutive
effect on the number of the company’s registered shares would be 1.44%.
Costs from the share-based incentive plan are recognised as staff expenses over time and in equity under earnings.
The period of notice for the CEO is six (6) months for both the CEO and the company. In addition to the pay for the term of
notice, the CEO is entitled to compensation equalling six (6) months’ salary if if the company dismisses the CEO for any
reason other than serious misconduct, criminal offence or similar.
The Chief Executive Officer is covered by the Employees Pensions Act that offers pension security based on the time of
service and earnings in the manner defined in the Act. According to the CEO’s contract, the CEO will retire without separate
notice upon reaching the retirement age of 63, unless otherwise agreed between both parties in advance. The Chief
Executive Officer’s accrued pension costs for the financial period were EUR 52.4 thousand.

6.4. Significant events after the financial statements date
The company has announced the following events after the reporting period:
Eezy Plc holding
At the beginning of January 2022, NoHo Partners sold 725,000 Eezy Plc shares. NoHo Partners owns 5,139,745 Eezy Plc shares at
the time of publication of the financial statements.
On 27 January 2022, NoHo Partners Plc announced in a stock exchange release that it will issue 40,503 new shares in a
special issue.
Based on the authorisation given by the Annual General Meeting, on 27 January 2022 the Board of Directors of NoHo Partners
decided to proceed with a special issue of 40,503 new NoHo Partners shares. The number of shares subscribed for in the share
issue corresponds to approximately 0.2 per cent of the share capital of NoHo Partners after the registration of the new shares.
The issue was offered to the Norwegian company Carpe Diem AS as part of an arrangement through which NoHo Partners’
subsidiary NoHo Partners International Oy acquired an additional 6% share in the Norwegian company NoHo Norway AS. After
the transaction, NoHo Partners International Oy owns a total of 86% of NoHo Norway AS’ share capital. In the transaction, in
addition to the Shares, the Seller received a total of approximately EUR 294,000 in receivables from NoHo Norway AS. The
subscription price per Share was EUR 7.993, which corresponded to the three (3) months’ volume weighted average price of the
NoHo Partners share.
The shares were registered in the Trade Register on 28 January 2022, and they grant their holders shareholder rights as of the
registration date. The shares were admitted to trading at Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd on 31 January 2022. With the subscriptions, the
number of NoHo Partners shares increased to 19,262,773 shares.

6.5.New and amended standards applicable in future accounting periods
* = Not yet endorsed for use by the European Union as of 31 December 2021.
According to the judgement of the Group Management the changes will not have a material effect on the financial statements.
Onerous Contracts – Costs of Fulfilling a Contract – Amendments to IAS 37
Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and
Contingent Assets
(effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2022)
The amendments clarify that when a provision for an onerous contract is recognised on the basis of inevitable costs, these costs
include not only the additional direct costs but also the allocated share of other direct costs.
Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020 (effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2022)
The Annual Improvements process provides a mechanism for minor and non-urgent amendments to IFRSs to be grouped
together and issued in one package annually. The amendments clarify the following standards:
IFRS 1 First Adoption of IFRSs – Subsidiary as a first-time adopter: The amendment simplifies the adoption of IFRS 1 in a
subsidiary that becomes a first-time adopter later than the parent. A subsidiary may elect to measure cumulative translation
differences at amounts included in the consolidated financial statements of the parent
.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments – Fees in the ’10 per cent’ test for derecognition of financial liabilities: The amendment clarifies the
10% derecognition test for fees so that when determining the fees paid less the fees received, the borrower only includes the
fees paid or received between the borrower and the lender, including the fees paid or received by the borrower or borrower on
behalf of others.
IFRS 16
Leases
– Lease incentives – example 13: The amendment removes payments made by the lessor for the renovation of
the leased premises from the example, as the example was unclear as to why the payments in question are not an incentive.
IAS 41
Agriculture
– Taxation in fair value measurements: This amendment removes the requirement to exclude cash flows for
taxation when measuring fair value, thereby aligning the fair value measurement requirements in IAS 41 with those in IFRS 13
Fair
Value Measurement
. When a present value technique is used to measure fair value, the assumptions used for the cash flows
and discount rates should be internally consistent – i.e. using either after tax or pre-tax for both.
Property, Plant and Equipment — Proceeds before Intended Use – Amendments to IAS 16
Property, Plant and Equipment
(effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2022)
According to the amendments, revenue from the sale of products arising from the use of an incomplete tangible asset and
related manufacturing costs should be recognised through profit or loss.
Reference to the Conceptual Framework — Amendments to IFRS 3
Business Combinations
(effective for financial years
beginning on or after 1 January 2022)
The amendments update a reference in IFRS 3 and made further reference related amendments.
IFRS 17
Insurance Contracts
(effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2023, early application
permitted for companies that also apply IFRS 9
Financial Instruments
and IFRS 15
Revenue from Contracts with
Customers
)
The new standard for insurance contracts will help investors and others better understand insurers’ risk exposure, profitability
and financial position. This standard replaces the IFRS 4 standard.
Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current - Amendments to IAS 1
Presentation of Financial Statements *
(effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2023, early application is permitted)
The amendments are to promote consistency in application and clarify the requirements on determining if a liability is current or

Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction – Amendments to IAS 12
Income Taxes *
(effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2023, early application is permitted)
The amendments narrow the initial recognition exemption (IRE) and clarify that the exemption does not apply to transactions
such as leases and decommissioning obligations which give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences.
Comparative Information – Amendments to IFRS 17 Insurance contracts: Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 *
(effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2023, early application is permitted)
Amendment to alleviate mismatches in comparative information arising from the different transition requirements of IFRS 9 and
IFRS 17.

Consolidated Financial Statements
and IAS 28
Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures *

The notes for the non-current assets only present the acquisition costs for those non-current assets whose acquisition costs
have not been completely depreciated as scheduled depreciation.
The pension coverage for the company's personnel has been arranged in an external pension insurance company. Pension
insurance payments have been recognised to correspond with the accrual-based salaries in the financial statements.
Inventories are measured at their variable acquisition cost in accordance with the FIFO principle and the lowest value principle
defined in Section 6(1) of Chapter 5 of the Accounting Act.
The trade and other receivables recognised under current asset receivables are measured at their nominal value or their
probable value, whichever is lowest.
