Notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements
(in thousands of U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated)
Note 1. Corporate information
Oatly Group AB (the “Company” or the “parent”) is a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in Sweden. The Company’s registered office is located at Ångfärjekajen 8, Malmö, Sweden.
Oatly Group AB and its subsidiaries (together, the “Group”) manufacture, distribute and sell oat-based products.
Note 2. Summary of significant accounting policies
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Oatly Group AB for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The Group has prepared the financial statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern, and there is a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and not less than 12 months from the end of the reporting period. In forming this judgment the Group has taken into consideration principal conditions, events and assumptions in relation to the Group’s ability to meet its obligations. This includes plans specific to forecast business performance, capex phasing and, cost-saving initiatives. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period.
The interim financial information reflects all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the information set forth herein. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, as they do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual consolidated financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated.
New and amended standards and interpretations issued but not yet adopted
There are no International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) or International Financial Reporting Standards Interpretations Committee (“IFRS IC”) interpretations that are expected to have a material impact on the Group in the current or future reporting periods or on foreseeable future transactions.
Note 3. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assessments
In preparing these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation and uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectation of future events.
Note 4. Seasonality
To date, the Group has not experienced any pronounced seasonality, but such fluctuations may have been masked by the Group's historical rapid growth, COVID-19 consumption dynamics, and macroeconomic trends, including higher inflation. As the Group continues to grow, including the relative size of our markets, the Group expects to see additional seasonality effects, especially within the food retail channel, with revenue contribution from this channel tending to be linked with holiday season periods. For example, the Lunar New Year one week celebration occurring in the first quarter of the calendar year has resulted in lower volumes sold in the Asia region compared to the remaining quarterly periods of the year.
