The Martela Group anticipates that its revenue in 2015 will remain at the previous year's level and that its operating result will show a slight year-on-year improvement. The Group's operating result is weighted towards the second half of the year due to normal seasonal variation, and this weighting was further emphasised by the timing of larger projects during 2015.
The demand for office furniture in Finland and Sweden continued to be weak and there are still no signs of a clear improvement. Demand in Finland and Sweden is still largely focused on office alteration and enhancement projects of different kinds rather than new offices. In spite of the weak market conditions, the activity-based office model, which is well suited to office alteration and enhancement projects, has aroused plenty of interest in customers in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Russia. Customers who choose the activitybased office model and the Martela Lifecycle model to modify and enhance their offices can make considerable savings in their premises costs, but at the same time they are also able to improve their employees' job satisfaction and efficiency. The Polish market weakened during the second half of the year and this situation has continued. The instability in the Russian economy continued in the second half of the year and this has led to reduced activity in the property market.
Finnish office construction statistics are examined for the first nine months of 2014. These statistics are presented below on the basis of a 12-month rolling average:
Finnish office construction statistics (m2):
| 12-month rolling average, change | 30 Sept 2014 vs 30 Sept 2013* |
|---|---|
| Building completions | -1% |
| Building permits granted | 22% |
| Building starts | 33% |
* Change in the 12-month rolling average between the dates is compared.
Martela has used the above office construction statistics as a key indicator when assessing overall market developments. Despite the weakness of the general market conditions, the increase in the number of building starts can be regarded as a mildly positive sign. Nonetheless, in terms of square metres, the values remain very low. However, the demand for Martela products is affected by many other factors too, such as overall economic growth and the need for companies to use their premises more efficiently. The need to boost efficiency increases the number of office alteration projects, which in turn generates demand especially for Martela's activity-based office model. These projects also result in companies allocating fewer square metres of space for each employee, which means that they purchase fewer pieces of traditional office furniture, such as desks, cupboards and cabinets. However, the demand for products and solutions for all kinds of meeting spaces and lobbies is on the increase.
The Group's fourth-quarter revenue performance in all market areas reflected the weak market conditions. Fourth quarter revenue was EUR 31.2 million (36.9), a decrease of 15.2 per cent from the previous year. Consolidated revenue for the full year 2014 was EUR 135.9 million (132.3), an increase of 2.7 per cent on the previous year. Revenue in Finland declined significantly, both in the fourth quarter and cumulatively, as a consequence of the weak market conditions. In Poland, by contrast, slight growth was achieved during the review period measured in the local currency. In Sweden revenue declined in the fourth quarter, but, by contrast, revenue for the full year increased considerably as a consequence of the major customer deliveries in the first half of the year. Revenue and result grew significantly in Russia which is reported in the Group in the other segment. But in the latter half of the year, the turmoil on the Russian market and the impact on the rouble reduced market demand during the last part of the year.
Business Unit Finland's revenue was down by 5.2 per cent. Business Unit Sweden & Norway's revenue was up by 21.7 per cent, and Business Unit Poland's by 4.9 per cent, calculated in local currencies. Movements in exchange rates did not have a significant impact on the Group's revenue.
The operating result for the fourth quarter declined and was EUR -1.1 million (-0.6). The cumulative full-year operating result increased considerably and was EUR 0.2 million (-3.1), which was 0.1 per cent (-2.4) of revenue.
The Group's full year revenue grew and fixed costs fell from the previous year, as anticipated, due to the adjustment measures taken. The sales margin on the Group's products for the review period was unchanged from the previous year. The combined effect of these factors resulted in a clear year-on-year improvement in Martela's consolidated operating result.
The EUR 6 million savings programme launched in the Group in the autumn of 2013 proceeded according to plan. As part of the savings programme, the company held codetermination negotiations during the latter part of 2013. Following the outcome of the negotiations, the Group's cost level was reduced by costs equivalent to 35 employees during 2014. The Group's delivery chain costs were considerably reduced with various production boosting measures during the review period. Production transfers between the Group's units located in Nummela and Riihimäki in Finland, in Warsaw, Poland, and in Bodafors, Sweden proceeded according to plan, and most of these were completed by the end of the year. These measures have created a distinct role for each of Martela's production units and ensure a more flexible and efficient service for customers. Several more minor measures were also implemented during the review period, which will affect the efficiency of service production and the Group's fixed costs. The measures taken are expected to achieve the targeted annual savings of EUR 6 million. It is estimated that due to the timing of the measures the programme's impact on total costs in 2014 was equivalent to about one third of the total savings target. The full saving in costs, which will be felt as a reduction in the Group's delivery chain costs and fixed costs, will be achieved during 2015.
Demand for activity-based office solutions continued to increase considerably during the review period, so Martela will continue to focus on providing even higher quality comprehensive solutions and associated services in the field of activity-based working. Launched in the review period, the Martela Lifecycle model offers customers a comprehensive solution that covers everything from planning to recycling. The model can help to reduce customers' premises costs while also increasing employees' job satisfaction and efficiency at customer companies. The Group's aim is to further strengthen its pioneering position as a supplier of comprehensive solutions and as a leading service provider for offices and other working environments.
The result before taxes was EUR -0.6 million (-4.6), and the result after taxes was EUR -0.7 million (-4.2).
The business segments are based on the Group's operating structure and internal financial reporting.
Sales between segments are reported as part of the segments' revenue. The segment results presented are their operating results, because tax items and financial items are not allocated by segment. The Group's assets and liabilities are not allocated or monitored by segment in the internal financial reporting. The revenue and operating result are in accordance with the consolidated financial statements.

The Group's financial position is still stable. Cash flow from operating activities was good in January-December and came to EUR 6.2 million (-0.1). Successful management of working capital boosted the Group's cash flow.
Interest-bearing liabilities at the end of the year were EUR 13.2 million (16.0) and net interest-bearing liabilities were EUR 6.8 million (11.2). The gearing ratio at the end of the period was 33.4 per cent (51.7), and the equity ratio was 38.1 per cent (37.2). Net financial expenses were EUR -0.8 million (-1.2). The financing arrangements include a covenant obligation in which it is calculated the Net Debt vs Ebitda ratio. At the time of closing the ratio fulfilled the covenant obligation.

The balance sheet total at the end of the period was EUR 54.2 million (58.6).
The Group's gross capital expenditure for January–December came to EUR 1.7 million (3.0). This consisted of expenditure on the production line start-up in Poland and on production replacements.

Creating the best work environments is at the core of Martela's strategy, which was redefined during 2014. The best work environments use the Martela Lifecycle® model. This model allows companies to considerably reduce their premises costs, improve employee wellbeing and brand image, and increase sales and employee creativity.
The activity-based office trend is strong in all of the Group's market areas. Even though overall demand for office refurbishment has declined due to the economic recession, interest in activity-based offices is growing. Switching over to an activity-based office in financially challenging times provides companies with clear benefits in terms of total premises costs and as a change management tool that increases the commitment of personnel.
The significance of service and customisation is highlighted in an increasing number of our customer relationships. Activity-based office projects, involving first specification, then planning and implementation, are increasingly customised service packages that take into account the various responsibility perspectives to an increasing degree. Martela believes that this development trend will continue.
In its domestic markets, Martela has a strong position in the activity-based office business. This position was reinforced further during the review period with a more defined selection of products and services based on the Martela Lifecycle® model. Furniture expenses are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the overall life-cycle costs of a company's premises. Operating expenses are typically 10 times higher and staff costs easily 100 times higher than furniture expenses. Instead of individual furniture orders, Martela can supply a comprehensive solution for the entire life cycle of the office and focusing on the premises, the furniture and the people. The best work environments create wellbeing for the entire working community. The comprehensive model enabled by Martela's broad selection of products and services makes it easier to manage premises and helps companies to function in a responsible and environmentally friendly way. When the overall situation is being managed and future needs can be predicted well in advance, the operating expenses of the premises can be reduced.
Intelligence is an essential feature in the activity-based office's functional solutions. During 2014 the Group presented many new solutions from the Martela Dynamic product family. Not all employees will require storage space at the same time. The Dynamic Storage solution for temporary storage needs has been developed to complement the personal storage systems at the office. Dynamic Storage can be used where it is most needed: on the second floor today and perhaps the fifth floor tomorrow. Simple reporting solutions make it possible to see where the storage solutions are needed and where they are not being used enough.
In a working environment which no longer has designated workstations, employees can still personalise the workstation that they are using with the help of an intelligent application. The application first identifies the user by means of an ID card. After this the Dynamic table and its lighting and power supply needs can be adjusted to the selected personal settings. The Dynamic Workstation also provides the user with tips on a healthy way of working. It encourages the user to work standing up for part of the day and can even calculate calorie consumption.
The application also ensures the energy efficiency of the workstations. When the employee logs out of the workstation, power supplies and monitors that are not needed are switched off. Logging out also ensures company data security.
Intelligent Axia® Smart chairs continuously monitor the user's working position and issue a vibration alert if the user sits too long in the same position or with poor posture.
Phone booths were once a familiar sight on our streets. But now they have all but disappeared from the urban landscape and have found their way into new activity-based offices. Martela's collection includes three different phone booth solutions designed for open-plan offices, and a meeting module that can be installed in an open-plan office. These products, which can be installed retrospectively, provide an excellent solution to easily alter the workspace and improve productivity.
Corporate responsibility and quality are important parts of Martela's strategy. The Group's operating approach includes supporting the responsibility of its customer companies by offering durable solutions for the work environment and by ensuring the responsible recycling of any furniture that is no longer needed. The company's Martela Lifecycle® model covers the entire life cycle of the work environment. Martela creates responsible work environments by taking into account user needs and by supporting user wellbeing. Efficient use of space is an important factor in the planning of work environments. Well-planned work environments have helped many customer companies to achieve a 20-30% reduction in their space requirements. With responsibly planned spaces it will be possible to respond flexibly to the constant changes in corporate environments. An important part of any premises alteration project that is carried out responsibly is the recycling of furniture that is no longer needed. The Group also offers recycled furniture as part of its new interior solutions.
In interior planning projects, furniture that is in good condition but no longer needed by the company is taken to the nearest of Martela's five Outlet stores in Finland. Furniture that needs repairing is taken to the Group's logistics centre where it is re-upholstered and then sold at an Outlet store. Furniture that is in poor condition is recycled into raw materials: metal is supplied for industrial use as a recycled raw material, and wood, upholstery and plastic are mainly used in energy production.
During 2014, in connection with the reorganisation of the logistics structure, the Group's common quality and environmental systems were introduced in all of the countries of production, Finland, Sweden and Poland. The systems are certified in accordance with the ISO 9001 standard (quality system) and the ISO 14001 standard (environmental system). The high-quality work carried out by Martela was recognised in April 2014, when the test laboratory was accredited according to the SFS-EN ISO/IEC 17025:2005 standard. The scope of the accreditation includes the most common European EN testing standards for office furniture. These standards show that all of the Group's tested products meet Martela's quality requirements and those set by the standards.
The Group's Russian companies in St Petersburg (LLC Martela Sp) and Moscow (LLC Martela) were merged in the third quarter. Operations are now being continued by a legal entity named LLC Martela. Grundell Henkilöstöpalvelut Oy was incorporated into Muuttopalvelu Grundell Oy on 31 December 2014. There were no other changes in Group structure during the financial year.
Martela has two share series, A and K, with each K share entitling its holder to 20 votes at a General Meeting and each A share entitling its holder to one vote. Private holders of K shares have a shareholder agreement that restricts the sale of K shares to any party outside the existing holders of K shares. The total number of K shares is 604,800 and A shares 3,550,800.
During the financial year, 745,536 (629,357) of the company's A shares, or 21.0 per cent (17.8) of all A shares, were traded on NASDAQ OMX Helsinki.
The value of trading turnover was EUR 2.4 million (2.6), and the share price was EUR 3.35 at the beginning of the year and EUR 2.91 at the end of the review period. During the year, the share price was EUR 3.65 at its highest and EUR 2.84 at its lowest. At the end of December, equity per share was EUR 5.02 (5.33).
Martela did not purchase any of its own shares in January-December. On 31 December 2014, Martela owned a total of 67,700 Martela A shares, purchased at an average price of EUR 10.65. Martela's holding of treasury shares amounts to 1.6 per cent of all shares and 0.4 per cent of all votes.
Share acquisition for the share-based incentive scheme and management of the scheme have been outsourced to an external service provider. These shares have been entered under equity in the consolidated financial statements for 2014. A total of 38,647 shares under the incentive scheme were still undistributed on 31 December 2014.
Martela Corporation's Annual General Meeting was held on 13 March 2014. The AGM approved the financial statements for 2013 and discharged the members of the Board of Directors and the Managing Director from liability. In accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal, the AGM decided that no dividends will be distributed for the 2013 financial year.
The number of members on the Board of Directors was confirmed as seven. Heikki Ala-Ilkka, Kirsi Komi, Heikki Martela, Pekka Martela, Pinja Metsäranta and Yrjö Närhinen were re-elected to the Board, and Eero Leskinen was elected as a new member. KPMG Oy Ab, Authorised Public Accountants, was appointed again as the company's auditor.
The AGM also approved the Board of Directors' proposals, detailed in the meeting notice, to authorise the Board to acquire and/or dispose of Martela shares.
The new Board of Directors convened after the AGM and elected from its members Heikki Ala-Ilkka as Chairman and Pekka Martela as Vice Chairman.

Further information: http://www.martela.com/corporate-governance
On 13 January 2015, the Group began codetermination negotiations concerning Martela Corporation's bluecollar employees at the logistics centre in Nummela and the entire personnel of Kidex Oy.
No other significant reportable events have taken place since the financial year, and operations have continued according to plan.
The principal risk to profit performance is related to general economic uncertainty and the consequent effects on the overall demand for office furniture.
The risks are explained in more detail in the corporate governance section of the company's annual report.
The Martela Group anticipates that its revenue in 2015 will remain at the previous year's level and that its operating result will show a slight year-on-year improvement. The Group's operating result is weighted towards the second half of the year due to normal seasonal variation, and this weighting was further emphasised by the timing of larger projects during 2015.
The Board of Directors will propose to the AGM that a dividend of EUR 0.10 per share be distributed for 2014.
Martela Corporation's AGM will be held on 10 March 2015 at 3 p.m. in Martela House, Helsinki. The notice of Annual General Meeting will be published in a separate stock exchange release.
