Goodwill write-downs

The Group has written down goodwill in 2019 by SEK 15 million (-). Write-downs for the year refer to business area Civil Engineering and are due to low profitability in existing operations. For the cash generating units where a calculation of the recovery value was made and no write-down need was identified, executive management has assessed that no feasible possible changes in important assumptions would result in a recovery value lower than the recognized value.

Method for calculating recovery value

The recovery value for all goodwill values has been derived by calculating the useful value for the cash generating units. The calculation model is based on a discount of forecasted future cash flows compared to the unit’s reported values. These future cash flows are based on 5 year forecasts produced by the management of the respective group of cash generating units. Goodwill impairment tests have an infinite time horizon and extrapolation of cash flow for the years after the forecast was calculated based on a growth rate from year six onwards of approximately two percent.

Important variables when calculating useful value

The following variables are important and common to all cash generating units in calculation of useful value:

Net sales: The business’ historical development, expected changes in the construction business cycle, general socioeconomic developments, investment plans of public and municipal customers, interest rate levels and local market conditions.

Operating margin: Historic profitability levels and operative efficiency, access to key personnel and qualified manpower, access to internal resources and hikes in salary, material and subcontractor costs.

Working capital requirements: Individual case assessment of whether the working capital reflects the company’s needs or whether it should be adjusted for the forecast period. A reasonable or cautious assumption for future development is that it parallels net sales growth. A high level of internally developed projects may entail a greater need for working capital.

Investment needs: The company’s investment needs are assessed on the investments required to achieve the initially forecasted cash flow, i.e. not including expansion investments.

Tax burden: The tax rate in forecasts is based on Peab’s expected tax situation in Sweden, Norway and Finland with regards to tax rates, loss carry-forwards etc.

Discount rate: Forecasted cash flows and residual values are discounted to current value applying a weighted average cost of capital (WACC). Interest rates on borrowed capital have been market adjusted to each country. The required return on equity is based on the Capital Asset Pricing Model. A weighted discount rate after tax has been used in calculating useful values. The discount rate after tax used on cash generating units in Sweden is on average 8.2 percent (7.9), in Norway 9.3 percent (9.0) and in Finland 8.7 percent (8.4) The corresponding pre-tax discount in Sweden was on average 8.3 percent (8.0), in Norway 9.5 percent (9.3) and in Finland 8.7 percent (8.5).
