Fiskars announces long-term financial targets

To deliver on Fiskars’ mission to create a family of iconic lifestyle brands
and on the vision to create a positive, lasting impact on the quality of life –
making the everyday extraordinary, Fiskars Group has established long-term
financial targets. 

“We have made considerable progress on our strategic journey to build global
businesses and brands, making this a suitable time to establish our financial
ambitions for the long-term performance of the company”, said Kari
Kauniskangas, President & CEO, Fiskars Corporation. 

Fiskars has established long-term financial targets that cover four areas:
growth, profitability, capital structure and dividend: 

  -- Growth: The average annual net sales growth to exceed 5%, through a
     combination of organic growth and targeted acquisitions
  -- Profitability: EBITA margin to exceed 10%
  -- Capital structure: Net gearing* below 100%
  -- Dividend: Fiskars aims to distribute a stable, over time increasing
     dividend, to be paid biannually

* Net gearing ratio is the ratio of interest-bearing debt, less
interest-bearing receivables and cash and bank equivalents, divided by total
equity.
