29. Events after the Balance Sheet Date

Because of the military escalation in the Ukraine war and to protect employees, the Vetropack Group stopped the glass factory in Gostomel near Kiev. The factory was severely damaged by military action. In 2021, Vetropack Gostomel contributed around 10 percent to Vetropack Group’s sales and operating performance. Given the rapid and uncertain developments in Ukraine and their impact on the plant there, it is impossible to quantify the impact on the Group for the 2022 financial year at this time. Irrespective of this, the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern is still given.
