Inside information, positive profit warning: Kemira upgrades its outlook for
2024

Kemira upgrades its outlook for 2024, particularly for operative EBITDA.
Kemira's end-markets have continued to recover, and Kemira's strong performance
in both segments has continued.

Kemira now expects the revenue to be between EUR 2,800 and 3,200 million, and
the operative EBITDA to be between EUR 540 and 640 million in 2024. Earlier,
Kemira expected the revenue to be between EUR 2,700 and EUR 3,200 million, and
the operative EBITDA to be between EUR 480 and EUR 580 million. The assumptions
behind Kemira's outlook have also been updated.

Kemira's upgraded outlook for 2024
Revenue: Kemira's revenue is expected to be between EUR 2,800 million and EUR
3,200 million in 2024 (reported 2023 revenue: EUR 3,383.7 million).
Operative EBITDA: Kemira's operative EBITDA is expected to be between EUR 540
and EUR 640 million in 2024 (reported 2023 operative EBITDA: EUR 666.7 million).

Assumptions behind outlook (updated)
Kemira's end-market demand (in volumes) is expected to grow in 2024 following
expected gradual demand recovery in the pulp and paper market. The water
treatment market is also expected to grow in 2024. Input costs are expected to
remain rather stable during the year. The outlook assumes no major disruptions
to Kemira's manufacturing operations, supply chain or Kemira's energy-generating
assets in Finland. Foreign exchange rates are expected to remain at
approximately current levels. The outlook for 2024 includes the Oil & Gas
business until February 2, 2024, the closing date of the divestment transaction.

Kemira's previous outlook for 2024 (published on April 26, 2024)
Revenue: Kemira's revenue is expected to be between EUR 2,700 million and EUR
3,200 million in 2024 (reported 2023 revenue: EUR 3,383.7 million).
Operative EBITDA: Kemira's operative EBITDA is expected to be between EUR 480
and EUR 580 million in 2024 (reported 2023 operative EBITDA: EUR 666.7 million).

Previous assumptions behind outlook
Kemira's end-market demand (in volumes) is expected to grow slightly in 2024
following expected gradual demand recovery in the pulp and paper market. The
water treatment market is expected to remain steady in 2024. Input costs are
expected to remain rather stable during the year. The outlook assumes no major
disruptions to Kemira's manufacturing operations, supply chain or Kemira's
energy-generating assets in Finland. There is uncertainty related to the
political strikes in Finland and their implications on Kemira's customers and
Kemira. Foreign exchange rates are expected to remain at approximately current
levels. The outlook for 2024 includes the Oil & Gas business until February 2,
2024, the closing date of the divestment transaction.
