Impairment tests

The Group prepares impairment test calculations at operating segment

or at lower business unit level annually. The key assumptions for calcula-

tions are those regarding business growth outlook, product prices, cost

development, and discount rate.

The business growth outlook is based on general forecasts for the

business in question. Ten-year forecasts are used in these calculations as

the nature of the Group’s business is long-term, due to its capital inten-

sity, and is exposed to cyclical changes. In estimates of product prices

and cost development, forecasts prepared by management for the next

three years and estimates made for the following seven years are taken

into consideration. The Group’s recent profitability trend is taken into

account in the forecasts. In addition, when preparing estimates, consider-

ation is given to the investment decisions made by the Group as well as

the profitability programmes that the Group has implemented and the

views of knowledgeable industry experts on the long-term development

of demand and prices.

In annual impairment tests, the recoverable amount of groups of

cash generating units is determined based on value in use calculations.

The discount rate is estimated using the weighted average cost of

capital on the calculation date adjusted for risks specific to the business

in question. The pre-tax discount rate used in 2014 for pulp operations

Finland was 9.86% (10.06%), and for pulp operations Uruguay 9.62%

(8.48%). The recoverable amount is most sensitive to pulp sales prices

and the cost of wood raw material. As at 31 December 2014, for pulp

operations Finland, a decrease of more than 13.4% in pulp prices would

result in recognition of impairment loss against goodwill. The Group

believes that no reasonable change in wood cost would cause the aggre-

gate carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount. For pulp opera-

tions Uruguay, a decrease of more than 3.9% in pulp prices or an

increase of more than 10% in wood cost would result in recognition of

impairment loss against goodwill. A decrease of more than 5.6% in pulp

prices or an increase of more than 15% in wood cost would result in a

write-down of the entire goodwill.

Water rights

Intangible rights include EUR 189 million (189 million) in respect of the

water rights of hydropower plants belonging to the UPM Energy seg-

ment that are deemed to have an indefinite useful life as the company has

a contractual right to exploit water resources in the energy production of

these power plants. The values of these water rights are tested annually

for impairment based on expected future cash flows of each separate

hydropower plant.
