Definitions of key performance indicators
Rugvista Group presents certain measures that are not defined under IFRS (alternative performance measures – “APMs”). The Group believes that these measures provide useful supplementary information to investors and the Company’s management as they enable evaluation of the Company’s financial development and position. Since not all companies calculate financial measures in the same way, these are not always comparable with measures used by other companies. These financial measures should therefore not be regarded as substitute for measures defined in accordance with IFRS. The APMs have been derived from Rugvista Group’s internal accounts and have not been audited.
