Activity on board and paper market is assessed to have improved and to be on satisfactory level (previously on weak level). Valmet also assesses that market activity for power plants utilizing renewable energy sources has improved to satisfactory level (previously on weak level). President and CEO Pasi Laine: Our focus is on improving profitability 2013 was a year of change: a new, independent Valmet was created as a result of the partial demerger of Metso. All in all, our operating environment in 2013 was challenging due to the transition of the paper industry and changes on the bioenergy market. Our net sales declined and our profitability weakened. Our services business remained stable and it will play an important role also in 2014. The short-term outlook for our business lines presents a somewhat challenging overall picture. The short-term outlook for the services, pulp, and tissue businesses is satisfactory. The outlook for the energy and board and paper businesses has increased to satisfactory level. Our key focus in 2014 will be on improving profitability. We will continue to carry out the profitability improvement measures already underway, and we will adapt our offering to meet market demand. An excellent example of this is OptiConcept M board and paper machine, which has already received positive feedback from our customers for its great functionality and modularity. Valmet is a unique combination of technology, capital business and services. Our target is to become the global champion in serving our customers. Together with our committed and skilled personnel, we are ready to bring success to Valmet and its shareholders and customers. Valmet is heading forward.
