Most part, €–5.8 million, of prior period taxes relate to Rautakesko Ltd's<br />
2001 fiscal <strong>year</strong>, on which the Helsinki Administrative Court gave its<br />
decision in <strong>2007</strong>. Most part of the prior period taxes in the amount of<br />
€–24.2 million recorded in 2006 consisted of the recovery of the €67.3<br />
million impairment made by Kesko Corporation on the shares of<br />
Hämeenkylän Kauppa Oy (former Tuko Oy) in 1996.<br />

Earnings per share<br />
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable<br />
to the parent's equity holders by the weighted average number of<br />
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is<br />
calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of all shares to<br />
assume conversion of all potentially dilutive shares. The Group operates<br />
a stock option scheme with a dilutive effect, which increases the number<br />
of stocks. The stock options have a dilutive effect when their exercise<br />
price is lower than the fair value of a share. The dilutive effect is the<br />
number of shares which has to be issued without consideration, because<br />
the Group could not use the assets received from the exercise of the stock<br />
options to issue an equal number of shares at fair value. The fair value of<br />
a share is based on the average share price during the period.<br />
