Ponsse present their Half-year Report for 1 January – 30 June 2024
The uncertainties in the forest machine market continued in the past quarter. There were positive signals in the forest industry, but in general, interest rates and the poor situation in European construction are weakening demand for forest machinery. Among market areas, the Nordic countries were the best performers, led by Finland and Sweden. The company’s euro-denominated operating profit is estimated to be lower in 2024 than in 2023 (EUR 47.2 million). Due to the uncertainty in the market, the company continues to carefully consider investments, maintains cost controls in place, and is developing its operational model to improve competitiveness. The company is closely monitoring changes in the operating environment and customers operating conditions. Source
