Significant risks and uncertainties

Through its operations, BE Group is exposed to global macroeconomic factors, the competitive situation, structural changes in the market and the economy, as well as financial risks such as currency risks, interest risks, credit and counterparty risks. Within the companies of the Group, continuous processes are ongoing to identify existing risks and assess how these should be handled. The risk exposure is explained in the 2024 Annual Report, which was published in March 2025. Risks related to tariffs are decribed below.

Tariffs

BE Group has several business partners with global operations. At current levels, the tariffs are expected to have a limited impact on the company’s result, but it is difficult to fully quantify due to the uncertainty of the situation. However, an indirect impact of a weaker global economy is a risk that could have material impact.
