JANUARY–JUNE 2024


Unless otherwise stated, the financial information in this report concerns Cargotec's continuing operations.
1 Includes discontinued operations
Cargotec estimates2 Hiab's comparable operating profit margin in 2024 to be above 13.5 percent and MacGregor's comparable operating profit in 2024 to be above EUR 55 million.
In its outlook initially published on 1 February 2024, Cargotec estimated Hiab's comparable operating profit margin in 2024 to be above 12 percent and MacGregor's comparable operating profit in 2024 to improve from 2023 (EUR 33 million).
The completion of the partial demerger of Cargotec Corporation and the incorporation of a new Kalmar Corporation was registered in the Finnish Trade Register on 30 June 2024. As a result of the partial demerger, Cargotec has updated its segment reporting.
From 30 June 2024 onwards Cargotec has two reporting segments, Hiab and MacGregor. The Kalmar segment has been removed. The new reporting structure is being used in this half-year financial report January–June 2024.
To provide a basis for comparison, Cargotec published on 3 July 2024 its reclassified financial information of reportable segments and Corporate administration and support functions for all quarters of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024 separately, as well as for the full year 2023. Corporate administration and support functions now reflect continuing operations while Hiab and MacGregor financial information remains unchanged.
The reclassified financial information is unaudited.
2 The business area 2024 profitability outlook is presented using the same principles which are applied in the 2023 external financial reporting.

The second quarter of 2024 was another operationally solid one for Cargotec. We have now six quarters in a row with good and stable results. The market environment remained mixed as high interest rates and uncertainty in some of Hiab's key geographies and industries continued to delay customer decision making. On the other hand, MacGregor continued to benefit from the strong ship building cycle. During the quarter, we achieved two major milestones in reshaping Cargotec. We completed the partial demerger on 30 June with Kalmar listing starting on Nasdaq Helsinki on 1 July, and we started the sales process of MacGregor in May.
Taking a look at our financial performance, Cargotec's orders received in the second quarter increased, driven by MacGregor and totalling EUR 584 million. The order book declined from the comparison period as Hiab's order book has gradually been returning to a more normal level. Sales amounted to EUR 625 million, declining by 4 percent from the comparison period. A solid business execution in both Hiab and MacGregor led the second quarter comparable operating profit to increase by 2 percent to EUR 82 million or 13.1 percent of sales. Our balance sheet is very strong after the demerger. Our gearing is only 2 percent and net debt amounted to EUR 18 million.
In Hiab, delayed decision making continued to impact customers' ordering behaviour whereas the order book collected in the past couple of years still supported Hiab's sales. Orders received declined by 7 percent to EUR 348 million. Hiab's sales decreased from a record-breaking comparison period by 11 percent to EUR 433 million. Service sales continued to increase and amounted to EUR 115 million, representing 27 percent of Hiab's sales. Despite lower sales, Hiab's profitability remained on a good level and the comparable operating profit amounted to EUR 69 million, corresponding to 15.9 percent of sales.
In MacGregor, the positive development continued with both merchant and service businesses continuing their strong performance. Demand remained strong and orders received increased by 26 percent to EUR 235 million. MacGregor's order book continued to increase and amounted to EUR 1,014 million. Sales increased by 17 percent to EUR 192 million, driven by merchant and service businesses. MacGregor's comparable operating profit improved yet again against the comparison period, reaching EUR 21 million, representing 11.1 percent of sales.
To proactively adjust to continued uncertainty in the market environment, and to support Hiab's future growth, Hiab initiates planning of an efficiency improvement programme. On top of cost saving actions in 2024, the target would be to reach approximately EUR 20 million of cost savings in 2025. These actions would further promote Hiab's ambition to improve efficiency and to support our commitment to profitable growth and sustainable customer value creation.
We have also specified our outlook for 2024. Cargotec now estimates Hiab's comparable operating profit margin in 2024 to be above 13.5 percent and MacGregor's comparable operating profit in 2024 to be above EUR 55 million. In the outlook initially published in February, we estimated Hiab's comparable operating margin to be above 12 percent and MacGregor's comparable operating profit to increase from 2023 (EUR 33 million).
We strongly believe that Hiab will continue its profitable growth by shaping the essential industries with innovative lifting and delivery solutions and increase customer's productivity, safety and sustainability. This is reflected in the new long term financial targets set for 2028 which were published in May: Hiab targets to continue to grow over 7 percent over the cycle and to reach a comparable operating profit of 18 percent (as a business area of Cargotec), and deliver an over 25 percent operative ROCE. Setting Hiab-specific financial targets is also a major milestone on Hiab's journey to become a standalone company.
Preparations of transforming Hiab into a standalone company progressed well during the quarter. We announced that if a solution to MacGregor is found so that MacGregor would not thereafter be part of the Cargotec group, Cargotec's Board of Directors is planning to propose to Cargotec's General Meeting of shareholders that the company's name would be changed from Cargotec to Hiab. The Board of Directors would then appoint the President of the Hiab business Scott Phillips as the President and CEO of the renamed company being the current Cargotec. We currently estimate that these changes could take place during 2025. The current Cargotec CFO Mikko Puolakka would continue as CFO of standalone Hiab.
A major step was also taken in finding a solution for MacGregor. We settled the dispute with a monopile installation vessel customer and started the sales process of MacGregor. We continue to aim to find a solution for MacGregor in 2024.

Cargotec's (Nasdaq Helsinki: CGCBV) businesses Hiab and MacGregor enable smarter cargo flow for a better everyday with leading cargo handling solutions and services. Hiab is a leading provider of smart and sustainable on road load-handling solutions, committed to delivering the best customer experience every day with the most engaged people and partners. MacGregor is a leader in sustainable maritime cargo and load handling with a strong portfolio of products, services and solutions. Cargotec's sales in 2023 totalled approximately EUR 2.5 billion and it employs over 6,000 people. www.cargotec.com
The half-year financial report provides estimates on future prospects involving risk and uncertainty factors, and other factors as a result of which the performance, operation or achievements of Cargotec may substantially deviate from the estimates. Forward-looking statements relating to future prospects are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the implementation of which depends on the future business environment and other circumstances.
The business environment in which Cargotec operates is complex, stemming from high interest rates and inflation, growing geopolitical tensions, and sluggish growth estimates. However, the global economy has remained remarkably resilient and the shipping market is in a strong cycle.
Demand for Hiab's solutions is influenced by general economic growth, construction market development and truck sales, among others. Inflation, high interest rates and political instabilities continue to cause challenges 3 . Decrease in interest rates, easing inflation and overall enhancing economic outlook may boost the customer investment activity, but timing remains uncertain.
According to the International Monetary Fund's (IMF) world economic outlook update published in July 2024, the global economy is projected to grow by 3.2 percent in 2024 and by 3.3 percent in 2025. In the IMF's advanced economies group (a group of countries which includes several key markets for Hiab, such as the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany), the IMF estimates a 1.7 percent growth in 2024 and a 1.8 percent growth in 2025. The report notes that services inflation, linked to both wages and prices, is hindering the disinflation progress and making the normalisation of monetary policy more difficult. 4
The demand for MacGregor's solutions is impacted by the level of merchant ship and offshore newbuilding contracting at shipyards. By the end of the second quarter, the new ship orders amounted to 898, including also 72 mobile offshore units (Q1–Q2 2023: 683). In 2024, the number of new vessel orders is projected to be 1,879 (FY 2023: 2,114 as per 1 July 2024). 5
The shipping market is in a continued strong market cycle with high earnings. Geopolitical disruptions, for example, are driving robust shipping capacity demand growth, along with improving seaborne trade volumes. A tight supply-demand balance has increased freight rates and ship owner earnings are above the ten-year average. However, shipyard capacity is a limiting factor for sector growth and newbuild prices are approaching a record-high level.

Cargotec is actively developing and maintaining an M&A pipeline. The aim of a potential M&A would be to strengthen Hiab's portfolio and to complement the offering, enter new developing markets and seek growth in adjacent segments.
Information regarding the demerger is available on chapter Demerger of Cargotec and in Note 18, Demerger.
Information regarding acquisitions and divestments is available in Note 15, Acquisitions and disposals.
Restructuring costs in the second quarter amounted to EUR 29 (2) million and to EUR 31 (5) million in January–June. Of the January–June restructuring costs, EUR 29 million is related to MacGregor settling a customer dispute related to one and only monopile installation vessel project. The impact of the settlement was reported as items affecting comparability as the settlement is related to a one of it kind pilot project and the product is no longer in MacGregor's sales portfolio. The remaining part of the restructuring costs was related to the restructuring programme in MacGregor, targeting EUR 10 million annual cost savings compared to 2023. With the restructuring and strengthened project management, Cargotec is continuing to turn around MacGregor's offshore business.
Hiab initiates planning of an efficiency improvement programme to reach approximately EUR 20 million cost savings in 2025. With the efficiency programme, Hiab aims to proactively adjust to continued uncertainty in the market environment.
As part of preparing Hiab for its future standalone status, Cargotec is planning to increase Hiab's administrative presence in Finland. This is not estimated to have a significant impact on Cargotec's comparable operating profit.
More information regarding restructuring costs and other items affecting comparability is available in Note 7, Comparable operating profit.
Cargotec employed 6,109 (31 Dec 2023: 6,400) people at the end of the second quarter. Hiab employed 3,816 (3,877) people, MacGregor 1,821 (1,853), and corporate administration and support functions 472 (670). The average number of employees during January–June was 6,148 (1–12/2023: 6,544).
Cargotec published new long term financial targets for its Hiab business area on 27 May 2024. Cargotec's Board of Directors has set the following financial targets for Hiab to measure success by 2028:
In addition to the Hiab-specific long term targets, Cargotec's climate target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in all three emission scopes by at least 50 percent by 2030 compared to a 2019 baseline remains valid. The target is validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). In its planned standalone future after the solution for MacGregor has been found, Cargotec (future Hiab) is planning to publish a new climate target and applying its validation from SBTi.
Cargotec also aims for a growing dividend of 30–50 percent of EPS and to keep gearing below 50 percent.

The completion of the partial demerger of Cargotec Corporation and the incorporation of a new Kalmar Corporation was registered in the Finnish Trade Register on 30 June 2024. Trading in the Kalmar class B shares on Nasdaq Helsinki commenced on 1 July 2024. Trading in Cargotec's class B shares has continued on the official list of Nasdaq Helsinki with a new ISIN code of FI4000571013. The new ISIN code for Cargotec's class A shares is FI4000571005.
The cumulative total costs related to the partial demerger amount to EUR 69 million. Cargotec estimates to book an additional EUR 15 million cost related to the transaction. The estimate may be subject to change. Costs are reported as part of discontinued operations.
As announced on 14 November 2022, MacGregor will not be part of Cargotec's portfolio in the future. Cargotec has continued to look for a solution for MacGregor in 2024 and announced on 28 May 2024 that it has decided to proceed with the sales process of MacGregor.
If a solution to MacGregor is found so that MacGregor would not thereafter be part of the Cargotec group, Cargotec's Board of Directors is planning to propose to Cargotec's General Meeting of shareholders that the company's name would be changed from Cargotec to Hiab. Should such actions be carried out as planned in the leadership of the current President and CEO of Cargotec, Casimir Lindholm has announced his intention to step down as President and CEO at such point. The Board of Directors would then appoint the President of the Hiab business Scott Phillips as the President and CEO of the renamed company being the current Cargotec. Cargotec currently estimates that these changes to transform into standalone Hiab could take place during 2025. The current Cargotec CFO Mikko Puolakka would continue as CFO of standalone Hiab.
In the second quarter of 2024, Cargotec continued to prepare for the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). The company, for example, continued to raise awareness of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) among relevant internal stakeholders to ensure readiness to report in accordance with the standards. Cargotec also kicked off the assurance of its 2024 annual sustainability reporting, which is a mandatory element of the CSRD, in collaboration with Ernst & Young. During the third and fourth quarters of 2024, the focus will be on executing CSRD-aligned sustainability reporting and ensuring knowledge transfers to Hiab and MacGregor.
During the quarter, Hiab continued to build its sustainability organisation to ensure needed capabilities as a future standalone company. Similarly, MacGregor continued to increase relevant sustainability capabilities in preparation for the planned sale of the business area.
Hiab continuously develops new sustainable solutions. For example, a new engine control feature was introduced for HIAB loader cranes in June. The feature includes an automatic start/stop functionality and dynamic flow control, which can save up to 20 percent in diesel consumption.
In May, Hiab announced an expansion of its spare parts portfolio, creating new opportunities for growth in circular services. With Hiab Exchange Parts, a returned component is recycled, remanufactured or disposed of by Hiab and replaced by a Red Parts component with reduced price, extending the lifetime of older equipment.
Cargotec published new long-term targets for its Hiab business area on 28 May. In addition to Hiab's long-term financial targets, Cargotec's climate target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in all emission scopes by at least 50 percent by 2030, compared to a 2019 baseline, remains valid. The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has approved the target. After the solution for MacGregor has been found and when Cargotec (future Hiab) is functioning as an independent company as planned, the company plans to publish a new climate target and to seek SBTi approval for it.

MacGregor's orders received in January–June increased by 27 percent and totalled EUR 502 (395) million.
MacGregor's order book increased by 3 percent from the end of 2023, totalling EUR 1,014 (31 Dec 2023: 988) million at the end of the second quarter.

MacGregor's second quarter operating profit totalled EUR -8 (8) million. Operating profit includes EUR -30 (-2) million in items affecting comparability mainly related to the settlement of a dispute related to the monopile installation vessel project. The comparable operating profit increased by more than 100 percent and totalled EUR 21 (10) million, representing 11.1 (6.3) percent of sales.

MacGregor's operating profit in January–June totalled EUR 2 (1) million. Operating profit includes EUR -31 (-10) million in items affecting comparability mainly related to the settlement of a dispute related to the monopile installation vessel project. The comparable operating profit in January– June increased by more than 100 percent and totalled EUR 34 (11) million, representing 8.5 (3.4) percent of sales. Comparable operating profit increased due to higher sales in service and merchant businesses and smaller losses related to offshore business.
During the second quarter, MacGregor settled a customer dispute related to a one and only monopile installation vessel project. The settlement and closing of the project had an approximately EUR 29 million negative impact on MacGregor's second quarter 2024 operating profit. This impact is reported as items affecting comparability as the settlement is related to a one of its kind pilot project and the product is no longer in MacGregor's sales portfolio. The settlement had a EUR 39 million negative impact on MacGregor's second quarter sales and a 1.9 percentage point positive impact on MacGregor's second quarter comparable operating profit margin due to a reversal of sales.
As announced on 14 November 2022, MacGregor will not be part of Cargotec's portfolio in the future. Since then, as MacGregor's performance and market conditions have improved, and as a dispute with a monopile installation vessel customer has been settled, Cargotec has decided to proceed with the sales process of MacGregor.
MacGregor still has challenges with offshore wind related projects containing new technologies and the offshore business is loss making. MacGregor's business in the merchant ship segment and service business has been profitable. Excluding the offshore business, MacGregor's comparable operating profit margin in January–June would have been around 11 percent. At the end of the second quarter, MacGregor's order book related to offshore pilot projects containing advanced technologies amounted to EUR 17 million.
MacGregor's research and product development expenditure in the second quarter totalled EUR 2 (2) million, representing 1 (1) percent of sales. In research and development, MacGregor focused on solutions supporting climate targets such as digitalisation, electrification and automatisation, as well as projects that aim to improve the competitiveness and cost efficiency of products.
During the second quarter, MacGregor continued the work with the self-unloader vibration feeder, "GravityVibeTM" with a real scale test facility. GravityVibeTM is a new and augmented gravity selfunloading system that will allow bulk carriers to deliver a wider variety of cargo, in greater volume. Equipped with a patent-pending vibrating unloader, the new system minimises internal friction, facilitating the discharge of coarse materials like wood chips from the cargo hold.

At the end of the period, the number of registered shareholders was 35,629. The number of Finnish household shareholders was 33,879, corresponding to around 16 percent ownership of Cargotec's listed B shares. At the end of the period, around 30 percent of Cargotec's listed B shares were nominee registered or held by non-Finnish holders.
Developments in the global economy have a direct effect on Cargotec's operating environment and customers' willingness to invest. Changes in the global economy and supply chains, geopolitical tensions and wars, energy availability, sanctions and trade wars can have an impact on global flow of goods and therefore on the demand of Cargotec's solutions.
Still high borrowing costs and inflation, withdrawal of fiscal support, longer-term effects from the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine as well as tensions in Middle East, weak growth in productivity and increasing geo-economic fragmentation are limiting economic growth.
In the current market situation, demand for Hiab's solutions might be lower than in previous years. Customers may also try to postpone or cancel orders or demand lower prices. Despite planned cost savings, lower production volumes could impact Hiab's profitability margins negatively.
In addition to economic growth, for example, Hiab's demand is also impacted by the development of the construction market. Low new building activity can negatively impact demand of a part of Hiab's portfolio, especially in Europe. A significant share of Hiab's orders are from the United States. Even though cash flows are hedged for the existing order book, the weakening of the US dollar could in the longer term weaken Hiab's results. Similarly, a stronger dollar can improve
Hiab's results. Hiab's solutions are installed on trucks, and truck delivery bottlenecks can have a negative impact on Hiab's sales development.
MacGregor's market development is affected by the tightening emission regulation for ships and related uncertainty. The increases in the new vessel construction costs and high amounts of order bookings at shipyards may slow down new vessel orders. Global decarbonisation targets have led to a fall in investments by the oil industry, which has long been reflected in low offshore vessel investments. Downward revision of market estimates or rising interest rates could result in an impairment of MacGregor's goodwill. Project executions face risks related to schedule, cost and delivery guarantees, especially those related to offshore business and new product developments. Currently MacGregor has approximately 10 loss making offshore pilot projects containing advanced technologies in the order book.
Availability problems and increases in costs of components, raw materials and energy could make cost control more challenging, elevate manufacturing expenses as well as increase challenges to pass them on to the prices of end products. The turnover, availability and cost of skilled personnel can create disturbances to Cargotec and its supplier operations and increase costs.
The deterioration of the global economic outlook and access to finance as well as interest rates that have remained higher than in the past decade can lead to economic and financial difficulties among Cargotec's customers. In some cases their financial position may rapidly deteriorate significantly or even lead to insolvency.
In May 2024, Cargotec announced that it had started the sales process of MacGregor. Taking into account MacGregor's losses in recent years and significant project cost overruns in the offshore business, the buyer's view of the company's value may differ significantly from Cargotec's estimate, which could result in a write-down of MacGregor's book value.
If a solution to MacGregor is found so that MacGregor would not thereafter be part of the Cargotec group, Cargotec's Board of Directors is planning to propose to Cargotec's General Meeting of shareholders that the company's name would be changed from Cargotec to Hiab. The planned actions can include risks related to the retention of skilled personnel, customer relationships, the execution of potential transactions, and costs, for example. Changes in operating models, combined with tightening tax regulation, may lead to additional tax payments.
Cargotec is exposed to climate-related risks via environmental, regulatory, and technological changes, and due to the commitments it has made to reduce emissions. The evaluation of the
8 Class B shares were also traded in several alternative marketplaces.

financial impacts of climate change on Cargotec is complicated because the occurrence and timing of the resulting effects are difficult to predict, let alone quantify. To reduce emissions generated in its supply chain, Cargotec must reduce emissions through its whole supply chain from raw materials to components and manufacturing, which may result in changes in the suppliers used, limit the number of potential suppliers, and increase costs.
The reduction of emissions related to the use of Cargotec's products can only be achieved if there is sufficient demand for low-emission products. In order to achieve this, Cargotec must succeed in developing and selling low-emission products. Cargotec's product development has a critical role in achieving this. Cargotec has invested heavily to electrify its product offering and customers are increasingly choosing low-emission products although the majority of products sold are still based on conventional technologies. In the future, Cargotec's product offering may be based on multiple low-emission technologies, which may increase complexity and cost.
Reaching the set emission targets requires efforts in every aspect of Cargotec's business. In addition to being exposed to climate-related risks, the ongoing transition process causes new risks, the realisation of which can have significant financial effects. These effects can lead, for example, to impairments of assets due to the shortened life cycles of products, as well as additional costs related to the introduction of new technologies, which may arise in product development, the realisation of project risks, the growth of inventories, and new types of warranty defects. In addition, tightening regulation may directly limit Cargotec's product offering.
Cargotec is involved in certain legal disputes, investigations and trials. The interpretation of international agreements and legislation may weaken the predictability of the end results of legal disputes and trials. Further, Cargotec is involved in governmental business with specific requirements. Failing to comply with such requirements may lead to penalties or exclusion from government tenders.
Risks regarding Cargotec's acquisitions are related to, for example, the knowledge of local markets, authority processes, customers, corporate culture, integration, costs, achieving targets, as well as key employees.
Information security risks are also materially related to Cargotec's operations. A cyber attack on systems that are critical to the operations of the company, its customers or suppliers can disrupt operational stability, lead to a decrease in sales and damage Cargotec's reputation, for example.
There are also ethical risks related to the industries and the geographical scope where Cargotec operates. Cargotec has increased actions to ensure compliance with its business guidelines, regulations and ethical principles. Related internal processes are constantly being developed.
More information on risks is available at www.cargotec.com, under Investors > Governance > Internal control and risk management.
Cargotec announced on 7 August 2024 that the Board of Directors resolved on the adjustment of ongoing share-based incentive programmes so as to be payable in rewards expressed in shares of Cargotec Corporation only. The adjustments were made following the demerger registered on 30 June 2024. More information is provided on a stock exchange release published on 7 August 2024.
Cargotec announced on 7 August 2024 that the Board of Directors had decided to exercise the authorisation of the Annual General Meeting on 30 May 2024 to repurchase the company's own shares. Cargotec will repurchase 400,000 class B shares to be used as reward payments for Cargotec's share-based incentive programmes. More information is provided on a stock exchange release published on 7 August 2024.
Cargotec estimates12 Hiab's comparable operating profit margin in 2024 to be above 13.5 percent and MacGregor's comparable operating profit in 2024 to be above EUR 55 million.
In its outlook initially published on 1 February 2024, Cargotec estimated Hiab's comparable operating profit margin in 2024 to be above 12 percent and MacGregor's comparable operating profit in 2024 to improve from 2023 (EUR 33 million).

*In Q2/24 Cargotec corrected in statement of cash flows for the periods Q2/23 and Q1-Q2/23 Profit for the period and Income taxes, EUR +19.2 million and EUR -19.2 million respectively.
Cargotec Corporation (1927402-8) is a limited liability company domiciled in Helsinki, Finland. The registered address is Porkkalankatu 5, 00180 Helsinki, Finland. Cargotec Corporation and its subsidiaries form the Cargotec Group (later referred to as Cargotec or company). Cargotec Corporation's class B shares are quoted on Nasdaq Helsinki since 1 June 2005.
The half-year financial report has been prepared according to IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for 2023 and comply with changes in IAS/IFRS accounting standards effective from 1 January 2024 that had no material impact on the half-year financial report.
All figures presented have been rounded, which may cause, for example, the sum of individual figures to deviate from the presented sum total.
The financial information presented in this release refers to Cargotec's continuing operations (Hiab and MacGregor) unless otherwise stated.
On 30 May 2024, Cargotec's general meeting approved the separation of the Kalmar business area into its own listed company (Demerger). The implementation date of the Demerger was 30 June 2024, after which Kalmar operates as an independent listed company.
As a result of the planned Demerger, Cargotec has presented the Kalmar business area as discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations starting from the first quarter of 2024. In accordance with the IFRS 5 standard, the net result of discontinued operations is presented in the consolidated statement of income separately from the income and expenses of continuing operations (Hiab and MacGregor). In addition, the statement of income includes profit from the Demerger. The balance sheet presented as of 30 June 2024 does not include balance sheet items related to Kalmar due to the Demerger. The cash flow statement and statement of changes in equity include the effects of Kalmar's business and the Demerger. More information about Kalmar's financial performance as discontinued operations is presented in note 17, Discontinued operations, and about the Demerger and Kalmar's financial position is presented in note 18, Demerger.
In the statement of income, the comparison periods have been adjusted accordingly. The balance sheet has not been adjusted. The presented discontinued operations include revenue and expenses directly related to the Kalmar business area, as well as other income and expenses related to continuing operations that are not expected to continue after the Demerger or that would have been avoided without the Demerger. In addition to the balance sheet items of the Kalmar segment, certain items not belonging to the Kalmar segment were removed from Cargotec's balance sheet in the Demerger, which were not depreciated in accordance with the presentation method of IFRS 5. Due to the reasons mentioned above, the financial information presented as Cargotec's continuing operations and Kalmar business area's discontinued operations do not reflect the previous or future profitability of either business as separate independent operations before or after the Demerger.
The adjusted financial information presented in this release is unaudited. Additional information about the restated comparative information has been published in a stock exchange release on April 8, 2024.
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, amendments to the classification and measurement of financial instruments
The amendments include guidance for determining whether cash flows of financial instruments tied to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) objectives are considered to be ordinary payments of principal and interest. The amendments also include certain additional disclosure requirements. The changes become effective on 1 January 2026 and are not expected to impact Cargotec's reporting.
IFRS 18 Presentation and disclosure in financial statements
The standard introduces a standardized structure for the statement of profit and loss, and certain improvements to the statement of cash flows. The standard also provides additional guidance on aggregation and disaggregation of data in financial statements and introduces disclosure requirements related to management-defined performance measures. The standard is becoming effective on 1 January 2027 and will change the presentation of Cargotec's financial statements.
IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without public accountability: disclosures
The standard defines limited reporting requirements that a subsidiary can apply in its own IFRS reporting, if certain conditions are met, instead of the presentation requirements of the normal IFRS accounting standards. The standard is becoming effective on 1 January 2027 and has no impact on Cargotec's reporting.
Developments in the global economy and cargo flows have a direct effect on Cargotec's operating environment and customers' willingness to invest. Changes in the global economy and supply chains, geopolitical tensions and wars, energy availability, sanctions and trade wars can have an impact on global flow of goods and therefore on the demand of Cargotec's solutions.
Still high borrowing costs and inflation, withdrawal of fiscal support, longer-term effects from the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine as well as tensions in Middle East, weak growth in productivity and increasing geo-economic fragmentation are limiting economic growth.
In the current market situation, demand for Cargotec's solutions might be lower than in previous years. Customers may also try to postpone or cancel orders or demand lower prices. Despite planned cost savings, lower production volumes could impact Cargotec's profitability margins negatively.
Deterioration of the global economic outlook and access to finance as well as increases in interest rates can lead to economic and financial difficulties among Cargotec's customers. In some cases their financial position may rapidly deteriorate significantly or even lead to insolvency.
MacGregor's goodwill impairment testing was renewed on 30 June 2024 due to the low level of MacGregor's recoverable amount in relation to the assets being tested. Cargotec announced in November 2022 that MacGregor will not be part of Cargotec's portfolio in the future. Cargotec continues to focus on a turnaround of the business and is looking for a solution for MacGregor in 2024. As a result of the decision, the recoverable amount of the MacGregor segment is determined in the goodwill impairment testing based on the fair value less costs to sell. The testing indicated that the recoverable amount exceeded the tested assets by a EUR 157.3 million (December 31, 2023: EUR 142.0 million). The post-tax WACC (weighted average cost of capital) used in the testing was 7.4 (7.7) percent.
Based on the performed impairment testing, no impairment loss has been recorded. However, MacGregor's recoverable amount remains low relative to testable assets and is sensitive to
changes in WACC and forecasts. In addition, in the sale alternative, the refinement of MacGregor's fair value may lead to a further impairment of goodwill.
The goodwill of the MacGregor segment was EUR 376.5 (December 31, 2023: 379.5) million at the time of reporting. As part of MacGregor's impairment testing, sensitivity analyses have been performed for the key assumptions based on three different scenarios. The changes tested in the analyses are a 2 percentage point increase in the discount rate in the first scenario, a 10 percent decrease in turnover and a 2 percentage point decrease in operating profit margin throughout the estimation period in the second scenario, and the combined effect of the previous scenarios in the third scenario. The results of the sensitivity analysis are presented in the table below.

| 30 Jun 2024 | 157,3 | No impairment* | Impairment** | Impairment | |||

*Threshold for impairment was WACC +2.3 percentage points (31 Dec 2023: +2.1 percentage points). **Threshold for impairment was estimation period sales -10 percent and operating profit -1.0 percentage points (31 Dec 2023: estimation period sales -10 percent and operating profit -0.9 percentage points).
Due to the current level of excess value of MacGregor's recoverable amount compared to the book value of assets, should the scenarios considered in the sensitivity analysis realise, the amount to be written off would be; EUR 90 (96) million in the second scenario, and EUR 144 (151) million in the third.
Cargotec is exposed to climate-related risks via environmental, regulatory, and technological changes, and due to the commitments it has made to reduce emissions. Evaluation of the financial impacts of climate change on Cargotec is complicated because the occurrence and timing of the resulting effects are difficult to predict, let alone quantify.
Reaching the set emission targets requires efforts in every aspect of Cargotec's business. In addition to being exposed to climate-related risks, the ongoing transition process causes new risks, the realisation of which can have significant financial effects. These effects can lead, for example, to impairments of assets due to the shortened life cycles of products, as well as additional costs related to the introduction of new technologies, which may arise in product development, the realisation of project risks, the growth of inventories, and new types of warranty defects. In addition, tightening regulation may directly limit Cargotec's product offering.
More information about the effects of climate-related risks on Cargotec and Cargotec's commitments to reduce its carbon dioxide emissions is given in the 2023 annual report.
The completion of the partial demerger of Cargotec Corporation ("Cargotec") (the "Demerger") and the incorporation of a new Kalmar Corporation was registered in the Finnish Trade Register on 30 June 2024. As a result of the Demerger, Cargotec has updated its segment reporting. From 30 June 2024 onwards Cargotec has two reporting segments, Hiab and MacGregor. The Kalmar segment has been removed.
To provide a basis for comparison, Cargotec published on 3 July 2024 its reclassified financial information of reportable segments and Corporate administration and support functions for all quarters of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024 separately, as well as for the full year 2023. Corporate administration and support functions now reflect continuing operations while Hiab and MacGregor financial information remains unchanged. The reclassified financial information is unaudited.

During January–June of the financial year 2024, Cargotec had several share-based incentive programmes in place for the group's key employees. During the quarter, the Board of Directors of Cargotec Corporation did not establish any new share-based incentive programmes.
The completion of the partial demerger of Cargotec Corporation and the incorporation of a new Kalmar Corporation was registered in the Finnish Trade Register on 30 June 2024. As a result of the partial demerger, Cargotec's Board of Director's will adjust the details of the share-based incentive programmes. Adjustments will be decided in the third quarter.
The following share-based incentive programmes established by the Board of Directors of Cargotec during the past financial years were in operation during January–June of 2024:
Performance share programme 2020–2024, performance period 2022–2024. The performance period includes three measuring periods of one calendar year. For its third measuring period of the financial year 2024, the potential reward will be based on the eco portfolio share in orders received for the key employees of the Hiab business area. For Cargotec Corporate key employees, the performance criterion is Cargotec's eco portfolio share in orders received. Before the partial demerger, the programme was directed to approximately 100 key employees, including the members of Cargotec Leadership Team. In the partial demerger, approximately 30 programme members transferred to Kalmar. Before the partial demerger, the rewards to be paid on the basis of the performance period amounted up to an approximate maximum total of 280,000 Cargotec's class B shares. In the partial demerger, following the transfer of Kalmar employees, the total maximum amount of shares was reduced by approximately 59,000 shares.
Performance share programme 2023–2025, performance period 2023–2025. The performance period includes three measuring periods of one calendar year. For its second measuring period 2024, the potential reward will be based on the service gross profit for the key employees of the Hiab business area. For Cargotec Corporate key employees, the performance criterion is Cargotec's service gross profit. Before the partial demerger, the programme was directed to approximately 100 key employees, including the members of Cargotec Leadership Team. In the partial demerger, approximately 40 programme members transferred to Kalmar. Before the partial demerger, the rewards to be paid on the basis of the performance period amounted up to an approximate maximum total of 200,000 Cargotec's class B shares. In the partial demerger, following the transfer of Kalmar employees, the total maximum amount of shares was reduced by approximately 60,000 shares.
Performance share programme 2024–2026, performance period 2024–2026. The performance period includes three measuring periods of one calendar year. For the key employees of the Hiab business area, the potential reward of the programme from the first measuring period 2024 will be based on the business areas' earning per share (EPS). For the Cargotec Corporate key employees, the performance criteria is Cargotec's earning per share (EPS). Before the partial demerger, the programme was directed to approximately 100 key employees, including the members of Cargotec Leadership Team. In the partial demerger, approximately 40 programme members transferred to Kalmar. Before the partial demerger, the rewards to be paid on the basis of the performance period amounted up to an approximate maximum total of 222,000 Cargotec's class B shares. In the partial demerger, following the transfer of Kalmar employees, the total maximum amount of shares was reduced by approximately 92,250 shares.
Restricted share programme 2020–2024, earnings period 2022–2024. Before the partial demerger, the rewards to be paid on the basis of the performance period amounted up to an approximate maximum total of 31,000 Cargotec's class B shares. In the partial demerger, following the transfer of Kalmar employees, the total maximum amount of shares was reduced by approximately 5,000 shares.
Restricted share programme 2023–2025. The rewards to be paid on the basis of the programme amounted up to an approximate maximum total of 24,000 Cargotec's class B shares. In the partial demerger, following the transfer of Kalmar employees, the total maximum amount of shares was reduced by approximately 8,000 shares.
Restricted share programme 2024–2026. The rewards to be paid on the basis of the programme amounted up to an approximate maximum total of 20,000 Cargotec's class B shares. In the partial demerger, following the transfer of Kalmar employees. the total maximum amount of shares was reduced by approximately 10,000 shares.
Restricted share unit programme 2023–2025. The reward from the programme is conditional on the achievement of strategic goals set by the Board of Directors. The reward is estimated to be paid in the beginning of 2025. The shares received as a reward from the programme may not be sold, transferred, pledged or otherwise assigned during a lock-up period which ends six months after the reward payment. The programme is intended for approximately 50 Cargotec group's key employees, including selected Leadership Team members. The rewards to be allocated on the basis of the programme will amount up to an approximate maximum total of 268,750 Cargotec's class B shares.

During the second quarter of 2024, MacGregor settled a dispute with a customer related to an installation vessel pilot project for offshore wind turbines, as a result of which the negative result impact of approximately EUR 29 million related to settlement of the dispute and termination of the project was recorded to restructuring costs. The product is no longer in MacGregor's sales portfolio.
*** Additional information regarding disposals of businesses is presented in note 15, Acquisitions and disposals and note 16, Joint ventures and associated companies.
**** In 2022 Cargotec and its subsidiary MacGregor USA, Inc. made a voluntary self-disclosure to US authorities regarding compliance with certain export regulations related to information management in the context of MacGregor's US Government business in 2022. MacGregor then booked an approximately EUR 18 million provision to cover possible consequences. During the third quarter of 2023, relevant US authorities resolved the matter without monetary penalty, and Cargotec thereby released the provision as an item affecting comparability.

On 30 May 2024, Cargotec's annual general meeting approved the separation of the Kalmar business area into its own listed company (Demerger). The implementation date of the Demerger was 30 June 2024, after which Kalmar operates as an independent listed company.
As a result of the Demerger, Cargotec has presented the Kalmar business area as discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations starting from the first quarter of 2024. In accordance with the IFRS 5 standard, the net result of discontinued operations is presented in the consolidated statement of income separately from the income and expenses of continuing operations (Hiab and MacGregor). The balance sheet presented as of 30 June 2024 does not include balance sheet items related to Kalmar due to the Demerger. The cash flow statement and statement of changes in equity include the effects of Kalmar's business and the Demerger.
In the statement of income, the comparison periods have been adjusted accordingly. The balance sheet has not been adjusted. The presented discontinued operations include revenue and expenses directly related to the Kalmar business area, as well as other income and expenses related to continuing operations that are not expected to continue after the Demerger or that would have been avoided without the Demerger. In addition to the balance sheet items of the Kalmar segment, certain items not belonging to the Kalmar segment were removed from Cargotec's balance sheet in the Demerger. These items were not depreciated or amortised in accordance with the presentation method of IFRS 5. Due to the reasons described above, the financial information presented as Cargotec's continuing operations and Kalmar business area's discontinued operations do not reflect the previous or future profitability of either business as separate independent operations before or after the Demerger.
The tables below include additional information about Kalmar's financial performance as discontinued operations. Information about balance sheet items transferred to Kalmar in the Demerger is presented in note 18, Demerger.

On 30 May 2024, Cargotec's annual general meeting approved the separation of the Kalmar business area into its own listed company (Demerger). The implementation date of the Demerger was 30 June 2024, after which Kalmar operates as an independent listed company. The trading in the class B shares of Kalmar on Nasdaq Helsinki commenced on 1 July 2024.
The Hiab business area of Cargotec remains in the Demerger with the current company. As announced by Cargotec on 14 November 2022, MacGregor, which is one of the business areas of Cargotec, will not be part of Cargotec's portfolio in the future. Therefore, in parallel, Cargotec's focus remains to continue looking for a solution for MacGregor during 2024.
Based on the Board of Directors' assessment, Demerger would be expected to improve the business performance of Kalmar and Hiab through higher agility, decisiveness, and stronger management focus. In addition, as two standalone businesses, the companies are positioned to achieve faster organic and inorganic growth thanks to a more tailored capital allocation strategy and flexible access to external capital. The Board of Directors believes the transaction would increase the attractiveness of the companies and facilitate their fair valuation. Furthermore, the separation would improve governance, simplify the structures of the entities, and provide greater transparency and accountability.
In the Demerger, all assets, debts, and liabilities of Cargotec that related to the Kalmar business area or mainly served the Kalmar business area of Cargotec were transferred to a new company named Kalmar Corporation that was incorporated in the Demerger.
The Demerger was executed as a partial demerger, as set out in the Finnish Companies Act (624/2006, as amended). The shareholders of Cargotec received as demerger consideration one new share of the corresponding share class (i.e., class A or class B) of Kalmar for each class A and class B share owned in Cargotec. There are corresponding two share classes in Kalmar as in Cargotec, i.e., class A and class B, which will carry the same voting and dividend rights as class A and class B shares in Cargotec, respectively. No action was required from the shareholders to receive the demerger consideration.
Fair value of the Demerger was determined based on the closing price of 26.40 euros on the first trading day of the Kalmar Corporation class B share on July 1, 2024. Based on the stock of Kalmar's 64,324,118 shares (9,526,089 class A shares and 54,798,029 class B shares), the fair value of the Demerger was EUR 1,698.2 million and the fair value gain from the Demerger was EUR 1,039.7 million. The gain from the Demerger was included in the discontinued operation's result. The demerger gain had no tax effect on the consolidated statement of income.
