Note 32 Segment reporting<br />
<strong>Clas</strong> <strong>Ohlson</strong> has the following segments: Sweden, Norway, other segments<br />
(Finland and the UK), as well as Group-wide. The Group-wide segment<br />
pertains to the Group-wide functions that assist sales organisations with<br />
purchasing, distribution, marketing, management and other support. A large<br />
portion of the Group’s value is generated in the Group-wide segment. The<br />
Group’s internal pricing was adapted to these prerequisites. Transactions<br />
between Group-wide and sales organisations consist primarily of deliveries<br />
and payment for goods, internal invoicing of services rendered and interest<br />
on Group-wide loans. The income measure recognised per segment consists<br />
of operating profit. <strong>Clas</strong> <strong>Ohlson</strong> has no customers that individually account<br />
for more than 10 per cent of the Group’s sales.<br />
