1 The previous year's figures have been adjusted due to a new presentation of long-term customer loans. Both the granting (previously shown under “Other non-cash items”) and the repayment (previously shown under “Divestment of financial assets and securities”) are now shown under “Change in provisions, deferred taxes and non-current customer loans”.
