Cargotec changed the definition of the alternative performance measure comparable operating profit starting from 1 January 2023. The restated comparable operating profit will also include the impacts of the purchase price allocation, which amounted to EUR 16 million in 2022. Of these items, EUR 1 million were related to Kalmar, EUR 3 million to Hiab, and EUR 12 million to MacGregor. Additional information regarding the changed definition is presented in the stock exchange release published on 4 April 2023.

Cargotec's eco portfolio criteria has been revised and the 2022 eco portfolio sales has been restated accordingly.

Cargotec's President and CEO Casimir Lindholm: Core businesses drove strong development in sales and comparable operating profit

The first quarter provided a strong start to the year 2023 and a solid base for me to enter as Cargotec's new CEO as of 1 April. Despite a 7 percent decrease in orders received, demand remained at a good level. Service orders continued to grow significantly and increased by 18 percent. Stemming from our solid order book, our sales increased by 26 percent to EUR 1,074 million. Driven by our core businesses Kalmar and Hiab, we reached a record-high comparable operating profit of EUR 112 million and a comparable operating profit margin of 10.5 percent.

In Kalmar, demand was steady. We saw some delays in purchase decisions in larger projects whereas demand for services and eco portfolio solutions remained strong. Sales increased by 31 percent to EUR 485 million. Sales growth was supported by successful supply chain management despite persisting tightness and volatility of the component availability. Service sales increased, driven by improved spare parts capture rates. Kalmar's comparable operating profit margin improved to a record level of 13 percent, driven by higher sales, improved management of supply chain and lower losses related to heavy cranes business.

In Hiab, underlying demand drivers remained at a good level. Orders received declined from the comparison period, which was partly due to large orders received in the first quarter of 2022. Order intake was also affected by inflation, high interest rates, and extended truck lead times. Bottlenecks in truck chassis supply also limited Hiab's sales growth. However, the operational execution was strong and Hiab's sales grew by 27 percent to EUR 432 million and comparable operating profit by 29 percent to EUR 61 million.

In MacGregor, orders received improved, driven by strong container vessel and car carrier markets. Going forward, the order pipeline looks healthy but, due to limited shipyard capacity, container vessel contracting is estimated to be slower. MacGregor's orders received increased also in offshore and service businesses. Sales in MacGregor were still at a relatively low level of EUR 157 million with 56 percent of sales coming from services. MacGregor's comparable operating profit improved to EUR 1 million stemming from higher service sales. As announced earlier, we will continue to focus on a turnaround of the business and to look for a solution for MacGregor in 2024.

To conclude, the first quarter was a robust start to the year. Despite elevated market uncertainty, many of our customers and partners are performing well. We have a solid order book covering almost the entire 2023 equipment sales and we are tracking well against our outlook for 2023 as well as performance targets for core businesses. The MacGregor restructuring is progressing and the business is on path to deliver a positive comparable operating profit in 2023. Our core businesses' comparable operating profit increased by 62 percent and posted a comparable operating profit margin of 12.4 percent. Share of eco portfolio orders in our core business continued to increase and core businesses' sales grew clearly faster than the global GDP.

Through their unique position in ports, at sea and on roads, they optimise global cargo flows and create sustainable customer value.

Cargotec's interim report January–March 2023

The interim 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, such as geopolitical tensions.

Operating environment

In the beginning of 2023, the market environment was characterised by elevated uncertainty stemming from high interest rates and inflation, instability of the financial markets, fear of recession, continued supply chain bottlenecks, geopolitical tensions, and sluggish growth estimates. However, many of our customers and partners are performing well and we have experienced steady demand.

The demand for Cargotec's core businesses Hiab and Kalmar is influenced by the development of the global GDP per capita. According to the International Monetary Fund's (IMF) world economic outlook published in April 2023, the global economy is projected to grow by 2.8 percent in 2023, and by 3.0 percent in 2024. The IMF notes that the advanced economies group (a group of countries which includes several key Cargotec markets, such as the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany) is expected to see an especially pronounced growth slowdown to 1.3 and 1.4 percent in 2023 and 2024 respectively.4

The demand for MacGregor's cargo handling solutions is impacted by the level of merchant ship contracting, which amounted to 217 in the first quarter (Q1/2022: 243). Activity level in the car carrier market was strong and the high container ship order activity still continued. Going forward, the container vessel contracting is estimated to be slower, due to the turn of the container freight markets along with high new ship prices and limited shipyard availability. For the year 2023, the merchant ship order forecast is 1,316 (2022: 1,414). In the offshore sector, the number of new unit contracts in the first quarter was 27 (Q1 2022: 30), which is below the historical average. Energy transition and securing energy supply drive investments in offshore wind, also boosting offshore oil & gas. The amount of new vessel contracting is still expected to remain modest, with offshore wind and replacement ordering being the key drivers. The offshore newbuild contracting forecast for 2023 is 172 (2022: 145).5

EUR 0 (-6) million of the items were related to Kalmar, EUR 0 (-4) million to Hiab, EUR -8 (-3) million to MacGregor and EUR 0 (-11) million to corporate administration and support functions. More information regarding items affecting comparability is available in Note 7, Comparable operating profit.

Comparable operating profit for the first quarter increased by 85 percent and totalled EUR 112 (61) million, representing 10.5 (7.2) percent of sales. The comparable operating profit increase was driven by higher sales in Kalmar and Hiab.

Corporate topics

Research and development

Research and product development expenditure in the first quarter totalled EUR 23 (23) million, representing 2.1 (2.7) percent of sales. Research and development investments were focused on solutions supporting climate targets such as digitalisation, electrification, and robotisation as well as projects that aim to improve the competitiveness and cost efficiency of products. During the first quarter of 2023, research and development efforts focused for example on the following:

Kalmar

In cooperation with a Finnish software company Veracell, Kalmar is taking steps towards utilising AI-based lifecycle models in predictive maintenance. With this technology, Kalmar can identify potential issues before they occur; for example, which machine parts are at risk of breaking. As the lifecycle models are giving concrete recommendations on when the parts should be replaced, Kalmar is planning to pilot this in its Kalmar MyParts spare parts web shop.

During the first quarter, Kalmar's customer in Norway started testing the Kalmar RoboTractor, an autonomous terminal tractor. In addition, Kalmar started the serial production of the Kalmar Heavy Electric Forklift and received the first orders.

At the end of last year, Kalmar announced a collaboration with Toyota Tsusho America Inc. and global strategic environmental engineering consultancy Ricardo in a project to develop fuel cell powered terminal tractors. The project is ongoing and continues through 2023.

Hiab

Hiab launched various new products and solutions during the first quarter. The EFFER iQ. 950 HP heavy range loader crane was published in February. It comes with a multi-purpose crane suitable for a wide range of vertical and horizontal lifting jobs that can be performed safely and precisely even at high speeds.

The new super heavy loader crane EFFER iQ.1400 HP, published in March, has a size and vertical performance that is ideal for operations in metropolitan areas.

Hiab also launched the robust, easy-to-use Universal Control Unit that will become standard for all ZEPRO tail lifts.

MacGregor

During the first quarter, MacGregor successfully finalised the Sea Acceptance Test (SAT) and Harbour Acceptance Test (HAT) for the fully in-house developed all-electric MacGregor Horizon Walk-to-Work gangway, which is utilised in offshore wind service vessels (SOV). The first MacGregor Walk-to-Work solution is ready for operation.

Capital expenditure

Capital expenditure, excluding acquisitions and customer financing, totalled EUR 18 (27) million in the first quarter. Investments in customer financing were EUR 15 (7) million. Depreciation, amortisation and impairment amounted to EUR 29 (29) million. The amount includes impairments worth EUR 0 (0) million.

Acquisitions and divestments in 2023

In December 2022, Hiab entered into an agreement to acquire the family-owned Swedish industrial group Olsbergs. Olsbergs is the technological leader in the design and manufacture of hydraulic valves and remote control systems. Its solutions are used to manoeuvre Hiab's truck mounted loader cranes and forestry cranes. The closing of the transaction took place on 1 January 2023.

Information regarding acquisitions and divestments is available in Note 15, Acquisitions and disposals.

Operational restructurings

Restructuring costs in the first quarter amounted to EUR 4 (13) million. The restructuring costs were related to MacGregor. For the year 2023, the restructuring costs of ongoing restructuring programmes are estimated to be approximately EUR 20 million. The estimate does not include all costs related to Cargotec's refocused strategy, and the restructuring cost estimate may be subject to change.

More information regarding restructuring costs and other items affecting comparability is available in Note 7, Comparable operating profit.

Personnel

Cargotec employed 11,640 (31 Dec 2022: 11,526) people at the end of the first quarter. The average number of employees in the first quarter was 11,630 (1–12/2022: 11,405).

Strategy and vision

Cargotec's vision is to become the global leader in sustainable cargo flow. The breakthrough objectives are sustainability and profitable growth.

In accordance with its strategy, Cargotec will focus on sustainable and profitable growth on its core businesses Hiab and Kalmar by solving customers' sustainability challenges. The core businesses will support customers with lifecycle services as well as with market leading equipment and technologies. Automated, robotised and zero emission equipment help Kalmar and Hiab customers to overcome sustainability challenges.

As part of its strategy, Cargotec has exited Kalmar's heavy port cranes business and has completed the evaluation of strategic options of MacGregor, announced in March 2022. Based on the evaluation, Cargotec's Board of Directors has concluded that MacGregor will not be part of Cargotec's portfolio in the future. Cargotec will continue to focus on a turnaround of the business and to look for a solution for MacGregor in 2024.

Performance targets for core businesses6

Cargotec's performance targets reflect the company's strategy and ambition to grow profitably by solving customers' sustainability challenges. Performance targets are set for core businesses Kalmar and Hiab and were announced on 15 November 2022.

  • Eco portfolio sales: double the growth compared to traditional products

In April, Cargotec arranged an investor event that focused on the eco portfolio.

At the end of the first quarter, Cargotec's safety performance, measured by rolling 12 months industrial injury frequency rate (IIFR), was 4.8 (6.0). The IIFR in Cargotec's assembly sites was 5 (7.3), while it was 4.6 (5.3) in non-assembly operations. The target for 2023 is to have an IIFR rate below 4.0 in all operations.

Cargotec's Annual General Meeting (AGM) was held In March 2023. In the AGM, the number of Board members was confirmed at eight, of which five are women and three men. The Board now holds a female majority for the first time in Cargotec's history, which increases the leadership diversity of the company.

In January 2023, EU's Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) entered into force. The target is to provide investors and other stakeholders information to assess possible investment risks arising from climate change and other sustainability issues. The first companies will have to apply the new directive for the 2024 financial year for reports published in 2025.

Cargotec has started preparations for the upcoming directive. Sustainability lies at the core of Cargotec's strategy, and we aim for having the highest ESG standards within the industry. We have recognised that the upcoming CSRD will not only have stricter requirements on ESG reporting, but it will also encourage the transformation towards a more sustainable business. We are currently working on understanding both our readiness to comply with the upcoming reporting requirements and the ways the new directive can be utilised to drive successful business transformation. The CSRD will amend the existing EU Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD), which applies to Cargotec.

MacGregor's operating profit for the first quarter totalled EUR -7 (-6) million. Operating profit includes EUR -8 (-3) million in items affecting comparability related to the ongoing restructuring programme. Comparable operating profit increased and totalled EUR 1 (-3) million, representing 0.4 (-2.0) percent of sales. Comparable operating profit increased due to higher service sales.

As announced on 14 November 2022, MacGregor will not be part of Cargotec's portfolio in the future. Cargotec will continue to focus on a turnaround of the business and to look for a solution for MacGregor in 2024.

The development of wind power-related new technologies as well as projects related to those technologies have been challenging and caused additional costs. As such, however, offshore wind power constitutes a very attractive business opportunity. Despite low sales, MacGregor's business in the merchant ship segment and service business has been profitable. Excluding the offshore wind business, MacGregor's comparable operating profit margin in the first quarter would have been around 4 percent.

Annual General Meeting and shares

Decisions taken at the Annual General Meeting

Cargotec Corporation's Annual General Meeting was held on 23 March 2023 in Helsinki, Finland. The Annual General Meeting approved a distribution of a dividend of EUR 1.34 for each of class A shares and a dividend of EUR 1.35 for each outstanding class B shares.

Shares and trading

Share capital, own shares and share issue

Cargotec Corporation's share capital totalled EUR 64,304,880 at the end of March 2023. The number of class B shares was 55,182,079, while the number of class A shares totalled 9,526,089.

On 23 March 2023, Cargotec's Board of Directors decided on a directed share issue related to the reward payments for share-based incentive programmes. The share reward payments are related to the performance period 2020–2022 of Cargotec's share-based incentive programme, 2020– 2022 restricted shares programme, first instalment of the restricted share programme 2022–2024 and first instalment of the restricted share unit programme 2022–2024.

In the share issue, 224,797 own class B shares held by the company were transferred on Friday 31 March 2023 without consideration to the key employees participating in the share-based incentive programmes in accordance with the programme-specific terms and conditions. More detailed information about the launch and the terms and conditions of these programmes are available in the stock exchange releases published on 6 February 2020 and 13 May 2022.

The decision on the directed share issue is based on the authorisation granted to the Board of Directors by the Annual General Meeting on 23 March 2023. According to the authorisation, the Board of Directors can decide on a share issue amounting to a maximum of 952,000 class A shares and 5,448,000 class B shares.

At the end of March 2023, Cargotec held a total of 7,043 own class B shares, accounting for 0.01 percent of the total number of shares and 0.005 percent of the total number of votes. The number of outstanding class B shares totalled 55,175,036.

Share-based incentive programmes

In February 2023, Cargotec's Board of Directors resolved to establish a new share-based incentive programme directed to the key employees of Cargotec. The performance share programme includes calendar years 2023–2025 as a performance period. The performance period includes three measuring periods of one calendar year. For each measuring period, the Board of Directors will annually resolve the performance criteria and the required performance levels for each criterion. The 2023–2025 performance share programme is directed to approximately 100 key employees, including the members of Cargotec Leadership Team.

For the key employees of the business areas Kalmar and Hiab, the potential reward of the programme from the measuring period 2023 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). The rewards to be paid on the basis of the performance period 2023– 2025 will amount up to an approximate maximum total of 200,000 Cargotec's class B shares. In addition, the rewards include cash proportions that are intended to cover taxes and tax-related costs arising from the reward to the key employees.

After the end of the performance period, the Board of Directors will confirm the cumulative amount of rewards earned from the measuring periods and potential rewards from the performance period 2023–2025 will be paid partly in Cargotec's class B shares and partly in cash in 2026. As a rule, no reward will be paid, if a key employee's employment or service ends before the reward payment.

In addition, The Board of Directors of Cargotec Corporation has resolved to establish a new restricted shares programme for calendar years 2023–2025. As a part of total compensation, additional restricted share grants can be allocated for selected key employees. The rewards to be paid on the basis of the programme will amount up to an approximate maximum total of 24,000 Cargotec's class B shares. In addition, the rewards include cash proportions that are intended to cover taxes and tax-related costs arising from the reward to the key employees.

The performance share programme, approved by the Board of Directors in 2020, includes three performance periods, of which the period for calendar years 2020–2022 has ended and periods 2021–2023 and 2022–2024 are ongoing. Each performance period includes one to three measuring periods. One measuring period can be three calendar years at maximum, which is the total length of one performance period. For the measuring periods, the Board of Directors will annually resolve the length, the performance criteria supporting the implementation of the strategy and the required performance levels for each criterion. Sustainability is an important part of the target setting and rewarding of the key employees.

For the performance period of 2021–2023, the potential reward of the third measuring period 2023 will be based on the eco portfolio share in orders received for the key employees of the business areas Kalmar, Hiab and MacGregor. For Cargotec Corporate key employees, the performance criterion was Cargotec's eco portfolio share in orders received.

For the performance period of 2022–2024, the potential reward of the second measuring period 2023 will be based on the business areas' service gross profit for the key employees of the business areas Kalmar, Hiab and MacGregor. For Cargotec Corporate key employees, the performance criterion will be Cargotec's service gross profit.

In addition, Cargotec has a share-based incentive programme for the Group key employees established in May 2022.

Short-term risks and uncertainties

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.

Disruptions in supply chains, problems with the availability of raw materials and energy, high inflation, high interest rates, weak consumer confidence, as well as increased uncertainty are slowing down economic growth and may lead to recession.

The instability of the operating environment has hampered Cargotec's operations. Problems with the availability of raw materials and components, as well as logistics, have extended the product delivery times and increased inventories. The extension of delivery times has had a negative effect on Cargotec's net sales. Component availability problems as well as increasing labour and energy costs maintain high manufacturing costs, increasing the challenges to control costs and passing them on to the prices of end products. Also the interest rates are expected to continue to stay on a higher level than during the recent years.

In a changing market situation, customers may also try to postpone or cancel orders. 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. The turnover, availability, and cost of skilled personnel can create disturbances to Cargotec and its supplier operations.

12 On the last trading day of the period.

Container traffic growth rate and a possible slowdown or contraction in global economic growth may in the longer term have an effect on the demand of Kalmar's cargo handling solutions. Kalmar's project executions face risks related to schedule, cost and delivery guarantees.

In addition to economic growth, for example, Hiab's demand is also impacted by the development of the construction market. Economic uncertainty as well as high prices and interest rates, and the availability challenges of building materials can have a negative effect on construction activity, which in turn can negatively impact the demand for Hiab's solutions. A significant share of Hiab's orders are from the United States. Even though the 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. The Hiab solutions are installed on trucks, and the 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, and the recent drop in container shipping rates may increase ship operators' reluctance to make new investments. Global decarbonisation targets have led to a fall in investments by the oil industry, which has long been reflected in decreased offshore vessel investments. However, increase in contracting for wind turbine installations and service vessels is estimated to partly compensate that in the future. Project executions face risks related to schedule, cost and delivery guarantees, especially those related to new product developments. Downward revision of market estimates or rising interest rates could result in an impairment of MacGregor's goodwill.

In November 2022, Cargotec's Board of Directors concluded that MacGregor will not be part of Cargotec's portfolio in the future. Taking into account MacGregor's losses in recent years and significant project cost overruns in the offshore business, in the sale alternative the buyer's view of the company's value may differ significantly from Cargotec's estimate, which could result in an impairment of MacGregor's goodwill. The planned actions can also include risks related to the retention of skilled personnel, customer relationships, the execution of potential transactions, and costs, for example.

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. 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.

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.

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.

Risks regarding Cargotec's acquisitions are related to, for example, the knowledge of the local markets, authority processes, customers, corporate culture, integration, costs, achieving targets, as well as key employees.

28/59

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.

Notes to the interim report

1. General information

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.

2. Accounting principles

The interim 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 2022 and comply with changes in IAS/IFRS standards effective from 1 January 2023 that had no material impact on the interim report.

All figures presented have been rounded, which may cause, for example, the sum of individual figures to deviate from the presented sum total.

3. Prevailing economic uncertainty

During the first quarter of 2023, the market environment has been characterised by elevated uncertainty stemming from increasing interest rates, high inflation, instability of the financial markets, fear of recession, continued supply chain bottlenecks, geopolitical tensions, and sluggish growth estimates.

These risk factors have affected Cargotec's operations. The order intake during the review period did not reach the level of the comparison period, and continuous bottlenecks in the supply chain affected the availability of raw materials and components, slowing down the production process, increasing inventories and delaying the delivery of finished products and the recording of sales revenue. Component availability problems as well as increased labour and energy costs elevate manufacturing costs and increase challenges to control costs and pass them on to the prices of end products. A further increase in economic uncertainty and a weakening of the general economic situation would have a negative impact on the demand for freight transport and thus on the demand for Cargotec's products.

Due to the weakening of the market situation and the availability of financing and the rise in interest rates, Cargotec's customers may run into financial difficulties, which may lead to the postponement or cancellation of orders. In some cases, the financial position of customers can rapidly deteriorate significantly and even lead to insolvency.

Cargotec's sales to Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine have been low. Cargotec complies with the sanctions imposed on Russia and is retrieving from the country. At the end of March, the retrieval process was at its final stages. Cargotec has no direct representation in Ukraine, or in Belarus. At the time of reporting, the assets of Cargotec's Russian subsidiaries totalled EUR 8.2 million, which mainly consisted of cash and cash equivalents. In addition, Cargotec's subsidiaries outside of Russia had trade receivables from Russia totalling EUR 0.9 million. Cargotec has a provision of EUR 4.7 million related to the above-mentioned balance sheet items.

MacGregor goodwill impairment testing

MacGregor's goodwill impairment testing was renewed on 31 March 2023 due to the low level of MacGregor's recoverable amount in relation to the assets being tested. Cargotec announced in November 2022 that it has decided that MacGregor will not be part of Cargotec's portfolio in the future. Cargotec will continue to focus on a turnaround of the business and to look 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 67.9 million (December 31, 2022: EUR 63.4 million impairment) mainly due to changes in the tested items. The post-tax WACC (weighted average cost of capital) used in the testing was 9.3 (9.0) 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 379.0 (December 31, 2022: 392.6) 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.

Sensitivity analysis scenarios and results Scenario 1 Scenario 2 Scenario 3 Recoverable amount in excess of book value of assets, MEUR WACC +2 percentage points Sales -10 percent and operating profit - 2 percentage points Sales -10 percent, operating profit -2 percentage points and WACC +2 percentage points 31 Mar 2023 67.9 Impairment* Impairment** Impairment 31 Dec 2022 0.0 Impairment* Impairment** Impairment

MacGregor goodwill sensitivity analysis

*Threshold for impairment was WACC +1.9 percentage points (31 Dec 2022: any increase in WACC). **Threshold for impairment was estimation period sales -10 percent and operating profit -0.4 percentage points (31 Dec 2022: any decline in estimation period sales or operating profit).

Due to the current minor 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 5 (31 Dec 2022: 142) million in the first scenario, EUR 117 (257) million in the second, and EUR 163 (306) million in the third.

Financial risks related to climate change

37/59 IAS 34 interim report 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. 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.

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.

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 2022 annual report.

6. Share-based payments

In February 2023, Cargotec's Board of Directors resolved to establish a new share-based incentive programme directed to the key employees of Cargotec. The performance share programme includes calendar years 2023–2025 as a performance period. The performance period includes three measuring periods of one calendar year. For each measuring period, the Board of Directors will annually resolve the performance criteria and the required performance levels for each criterion. The 2023–2025 performance share programme is directed to approximately 100 key employees, including the members of Cargotec Leadership Team.

For the key employees of the business areas Kalmar and Hiab, the potential reward of the programme from the measuring period 2023 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). The rewards to be paid on the basis of the performance period 2023– 2025 will amount up to an approximate maximum total of 200,000 Cargotec's class B shares. In addition, the rewards include cash proportions that are intended to cover taxes and tax-related costs arising from the reward to the key employees.

After the end of the performance period, the Board of Directors will confirm the cumulative amount of rewards earned from the measuring periods and potential rewards from the performance period 2023–2025 will be paid partly in Cargotec's class B shares and partly in cash in 2026. As a rule, no reward will be paid, if a key employee's employment or service ends before the reward payment.

In addition, The Board of Directors of Cargotec Corporation has resolved to establish a new restricted shares programme for calendar years 2023–2025. As a part of total compensation, additional restricted share grants can be allocated for selected key employees.The rewards to be paid on the basis of the programme will amount up to an approximate maximum total of 24,000 Cargotec's class B shares. In addition, the rewards include cash proportions that are intended to cover taxes and tax-related costs arising from the reward to the key employees.

The performance share programme, approved by the Board of Directors in 2020, includes three performance periods, of which the period for calendar years 2020–2022 has ended and periods 2021–2023 and 2022–2024 are ongoing. Each performance period includes one to three measuring periods. One measuring period can be three calendar years at maximum, which is the total length of one performance period. For the measuring periods, the Board of Directors will annually resolve the length, the performance criteria supporting the implementation of the strategy and the required performance levels for each criterion. Sustainability is an important part of the target setting and rewarding of the key employees.

For the performance period of 2021–2023, the potential reward of the third measuring period 2023 will be based on the eco portfolio share in orders received for the key employees of the business areas Kalmar, Hiab and MacGregor. For Cargotec Corporate key employees, the performance criterion was Cargotec's eco portfolio share in orders received.

For the performance period of 2022–2024, the potential reward of the second measuring period 2023 will be based on the business areas' service gross profit for the key employees of the business areas Kalmar, Hiab and MacGregor. For Cargotec Corporate key employees, the performance criterion will be Cargotec's service gross profit.

* During the fourth quarter of 2022, Cargotec reviewed MacGregor's offering, ongoing projects and growth estimates. Based on the review, the company decided to discontinue the business activities related to fishery and research vessels as well as offshore mooring solutions, and a total of EUR 37 million was booked as restructuring costs. This includes a EUR 25 million write-down of intangible assets.

** Additional information regarding disposals of businesses is presented in note 15, Acquisitions and disposals.

*** Other restructuring costs include contract termination costs (other than employment contracts), costs arising from outsourcing or transferring operations to new locations, maintenance costs of vacant and in the future redundant premises for Cargotec, gains and losses on sale of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment that relate to sold or discontinued operations as well as costs for the group-wide reorganisation of support functions.

Year 2022 includes a EUR 4.7 million impairment provision to assets that relate to Cargotec's business in Russia. In addition, during the third quarter of 2022 Cargotec reversed revenues and recognised impairments related to its ongoing long-term projects to be delivered to Russia in a total of EUR 3.7 million. Kalmar booked in the second quarter of 2022 a EUR 25 million and in the third quarter a EUR 11 million restructuring cost related to the plans to transfer the heavy crane immaterial rights to Rainbow Industries Co. Ltd. (RIC) in China and to ramp down the heavy cranes business. From heavy cranes business ramp down costs, EUR 31 million is included to other restructuring costs.

****Additional information regarding disposals of businesses is presented in note 15, Acquisitions and disposals and note 16, Joint ventures and associated companies. MacGregor booked in the second quarter of 2022 a total of EUR 4 million impairments into the values of its two Chinese joint venture holdings.

***** In 2022, MacGregor booked a EUR 18 million provision for possible consequences related to a project delivered to the U.S. government and EUR 2 million in legal costs related to the case. Cargotec and its subsidiary MacGregor USA, Inc. have made a voluntary self-disclosure to US authorities regarding compliance with certain export regulations related to information management. The outcome of this matter cannot be determined with specificity at this point in time. The amount of the possible penalty is yet to be confirmed; hence the final costs related to the process may change. Additionally in 2022, EUR 14 million were recorded in expert and other expenses related to Cargotec's refocused strategy.

Cargotec changed the definition of the alternative performance measure comparable operating profit starting from 1 January 2023. The restated comparable operating profit will also include the impacts of the purchase price allocation, which amounted to EUR 16 million in 2022. Of these items, EUR 1 million were related to Kalmar, EUR 3 million to Hiab, and EUR 12 million to MacGregor. Additional information regarding the changed definition is presented in the stock exchange release published on 4 April 2023.

Acquisitions in 2023

Hiab acquired in January the share capitals of Olsbergs Hydraulics Aktiebolag and Olsbergs Electronics AB at a preliminary purchase price of EUR 19.1 million of which the EUR 1.9 million share is conditional and paid later. Olsbergs is the technological leader in the design and manufacture of hydraulic valves and remote control systems. Its solutions are used to manoeuvre Hiab's truck mounted loader cranes and forestry cranes. Via acquisition, Hiab is insourcing these components and has better capabilities to further develop them in an integrated manner with other crane components. In determining the preliminary fair values, EUR 3.9 million of intangible assets and EUR 4.2 million of goodwill, which are not tax deductible, were identified. As a result of the acquisition, approximately 100 employees transferred to Hiab.

Changes in joint ventures and associated companies in 2023

The sale of TTS Hua Hai Ships Equipment (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (THH) to China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC) was completed in March. The transaction had no material profit impact.

Changes in joint ventures and associated companies in 2022

In March, MacGregor restructured its holdings in Cyprus by selling its 30 percent ownership in the associated company J.L. Jumbo Logistics Limited, and by increasing its ownership in the subsidiary Hatlapa (Eastmed) Limited to 100 percent by acquiring 30 percent of the share capital. In total, transactions resulted in a net cash outflow of EUR 0.7 million.

Additionally, MacGregor is finalising changes to its two Chinese joint ventures, which it acquired as part of the acquisition of TTS and that are jointly owned with China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC).

Regarding TTS Hua Hai Ships Equipment (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (THH), MacGregor is selling its ownership to CSSC. The sales contract has been signed and the deal is awaiting for authority approval. The transaction is expected to be closed during the first quarter of 2023. With the transaction, THH will cease manufacturing and selling hatch covers in China under the TTS brand. MacGregor has recognised an impairment of EUR 2.0 million in the value of its holding, and reimbursement of EUR 2.4 million from the use of the TTS brand during the year 2022, which have been included in other items affecting comparability. The balance sheet value of the holding in the joint venture was EUR 6.5 (31.12.2021: 9.0) million on the reporting date and the sale of ownership is not expected to have a material impact on profit or loss. The consolidation of THH using the equity method has ended in 2022.

Regarding TTS Bohai Machinery (Dalian) Co., Ltd. (TBH), MacGregor and CSSC have transferred the business of the joint venture to CSSC MacGregor Marine Equipment Co., Ltd. (CMME), a joint venture established in 2021. With the transfer, the liquidation process of TBH is underway. In June, MacGregor recorded an impairment of EUR 2.0 million in the value of its holding, which has been included in other items affecting comparability. Additionally, EUR 0.5 million of intangible assets and EUR 3.4 million of goodwill included in the carrying value of TBH were transferred to the carrying value of CMME. The balance sheet value of the holding in the joint venture was EUR 4.3 (31.12.2021: 10.2) million on the reporting date and liquidation of the company is not expected to have a material impact on profit or loss. The consolidation of TBH using the equity method has ended in 2022.

Hiab continued its preparations for the closure of the joint venture Sinotruk Hiab (Shandong) Equipment Co., Ltd. During the first quarter of 2022, Hiab repaid the loan of EUR 2.8 million it had guaranteed for the joint venture, which had a cost impact of EUR 1.4 million.
