PRESIDENT AND CEO
Demand for
The situation in the forest industry decreased relatively quickly during the beginning of the year. The decrease in construction, combined with the decelerating growth of private consumption, has an impact on demand for forest industry end products. The weakening of the forest industry's economic outlook makes it challenging to assess the development of global logging volumes. The company's order intake has decreased from its peak level.
The company's net sales for the last quarter stood at
Our relative profitability during the last quarter was 4.9 (6.6) per cent. The profitability was affected by the growth of company's operating expenses faster than the net sales and the operative challenges related to subsidiary Ponsse Latin America Ltda. During the first half, our relative profitability increased slightly year-on-year, with profitability being 6.5 (6.2) per cent. We will continue our efforts to improve the profitability of our operations, and we aim to control our productivity, operating costs and product expenses more effectively.

RISK MANAGEMENT
Our risk management is based on the company's values and strategic and financial goals. The purpose of risk management is to support the company's strategic objectives and to secure its financial development and the continuity of its business.
The purpose of risk management is to identify, assess, and monitor business-related risks that may impact the realisation of the company's strategic and financial objectives or the continuity of business. This information is used to decide what measures will be required to prevent risks and respond to current risks.
Risk management is part of the company's daily business and has been incorporated into its management system. Risk management is directed by the risk management policy approved by the Board of Directors.
A risk is any event that may prevent the company from achieving its objectives or threatens the continuity of business. A risk may also be a positive event, in which case the risk is treated as an opportunity. Each risk is assessed on the basis of its impact and probability. The company's risk management methods include the avoidance, mitigation, and transfer of risk. Risks may also be managed by controlling and minimising their impacts.
SHORT-TERM RISK MANAGEMENT
Our major short-term risks are related to geopolitical situation, sudden economic fluctuation and still high inflation and rising interest rates. The instability of the world economy and increasing financing costs may also reduce demand for forest machines.
General delivery problems in our supply chain have made it more difficult to manage
Our operating environment has changed drastically and it is affecting
The uncertainty may also be increased by the volatility of developing countries' foreign exchange markets. The geopolitical situation will increase the uncertainty through financial market operations and sanctions. Changes taking place in the fiscal and customs legislation in countries to which
The parent company monitors the changes in the Group's internal and external trade receivables and the associated risk of impairment. The company has long-term and extensive service contracts, which may involve operational risks.
The key objective of the company's financial risk management policy is to manage liquidity, interest and currency risks. The company ensures its liquidity through credit limit facilities agreed with a number of financial institutions. The effect of adverse changes in interest rates is minimised by utilising credit linked to different reference rates and by concluding interest rate swaps. The effects of currency rate fluctuations are partly mitigated through derivative contracts.
In the challenging situation,
In order to strengthen cybersecurity,
OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE
The company's euro-denominated operating profit in 2023 is expected to be slightly higher than the operating profit of its continuing operations in 2022 (EUR 46.6 million).
Due to the uncertainty in the market, the company keeps prioritising its investments and the cost control will be continued. The development work to improve profitability continues. The company monitors changes in the operating environment and customers operating conditions closely.
We monitor Ponsse Latin America Ltda -subsidiary's situation in an enhanced manner and company takes measures to improve the situation.
