Level 3 comprised the financial investment in Shanghai Quicktron Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., which is recognized under other financial assets. The fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow method. The changes in value compared with the end of 2024 were attributable to the subsequent measurement of this financial investment. The material measurement parameters were a WACC after taxes of 9.1 percent and a long-term growth rate of 1.3 percent. A sensitivity analysis of the financial investment’s fair value as at the reporting date did not lead to a material change in value.
