33 Fund allocation follows the portfolio logic We prioritize main transformational drivers: Softgoods, D2C, China, modern channel logistics, We continue investing in those Hardgoods units where business is in line with portfolio role (WSE, Ball Sports), and/or where our current investment program is delivering largely in line with expectations (Sports Instruments, Fitness) Before we continue long-term commitment to Cycling, where business is not in line with portfolio role and scale & synergy benefits are insufficient, we will put Mavic under strategic review to assess whether Amer Sports is the best owner We have engaged investment bank Centerview to assist in the process Amer Sports CMD 2018
