Raisio plc, Stock exchange release 9.2.2010
FAVOURABLE DECISION ON THE TAXATION OF RAISIO'S SALES PROFIT FROM 2004
The proceedings concerning the sales profit from the divestment of Raisio's
chemical business in 2004 have concluded favourably for Raisio. The Tax
Administration's Tax Recipients' Legal Services Unit was not granted the leave
to appeal by the Supreme Administrative Court.
Raisio has considered the sales profit of approximately EUR 220 million to be
free of tax and has handled it accordingly in its accounting. This was also the
opinion of the Tax Office for Major Corporations in regular taxation, the
Assessment Adjustment Board, the Helsinki Administrative Court and now the
Supreme Administrative Court.
