Cargotec's President and CEO Mika Vehviläinen:

2015 began positively for Cargotec. We saw year-on-year improvement in all of our key figures. I am extremely pleased with the way our profit improvement measures are progressing with regard to Kalmar and Hiab. Our new product launches together with the improving market situation are demonstrating as growth in our order book and sales. Our profitability is improving step by step towards our 8% EBIT margin target set for 2016.

We are also satisfied with the 9% growth seen in orders received in the first quarter. During the first quarter, the market situation related to Kalmar and Hiab developed favourably, while that of MacGregor weakened. We do not expect to see rapid improvement in MacGregor's market situation, which is why we have added a savings programme to our current programmes in order to safeguard the profitability of this business area.

Cargotec's January–March 2015 interim report

Operating environment

The market for marine cargo handling equipment was rather weak in early 2015. The demand for cargo handling solutions for bulk carriers was low. The level of activity in the container ship sector picked up, but was not yet reflected in orders. As far as the MacGregor product range was concerned, the offshore cargo handling equipment market remained at a healthy level, but the drop in oil price in late 2014 was reflected as market uncertainty. Demand for services showed signs of improvement.

A growth of more than five percent is anticipated in the number of containers handled at ports in 2015. The demand for container handling equipment and services saw positive development on all continents. Customer interest in port automation solutions remained healthy. In the United States, the recovering economy was reflected in increased demand also for equipment supplied to distribution centres and heavy material handling customers.

In early 2015, the market for load handling equipment continued its strong growth in the US. The demand situation in Europe varied significantly between countries, showing, however, early signs of picking up. Increased demand in the US was especially visible in the demand for truck-mounted forklifts and tail lifts. Demand for services was healthy.

Financial result

Operating profit for the first quarter clearly increased from the comparison period, totalling EUR 51.3 (23.8) million. Kalmar's and Hiab's operating profit improved as a result of profit improvement measures undertaken during the past two years. In Kalmar, growth in sales also supported profit improvement.

In addition, MacGregor's comparison period was burdened by one-time costs of EUR 3.0 million resulting from business acquisitions. Operating profit includes EUR 1.0 (0.9) million in restructuring costs. EUR -0.2 (0.0) million of the restructuring costs were related to MacGregor, EUR 0.5 (0.6) million to Kalmar, EUR 0.6 (-0.1) million to Hiab.

The Annual General Meeting approved a dividend of EUR 0.54 be paid for each of class A shares and a dividend of EUR 0.55 be paid for each of class B shares. The dividend payment date was 27 March 2015.

The Annual General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide on the repurchase of own shares with non-restricted equity. Altogether no more than 952,000 class A shares and 5,448,000 class B shares may be purchased. The authorisation shall remain in effect for a period of 18 months from the resolution by the Annual General Meeting. More detailed information on the authorisation was published in a stock exchange release on the day of the AGM, 18 March 2015.

The number of ordinary members of the Board of Directors was confirmed at seven. Jorma Eloranta, Tapio Hakakari, Ilkka Herlin, Peter Immonen, Antti Lagerroos, Teuvo Salminen and Anja Silvennoinen were re-elected to the Board of Directors. The meeting decided to keep the yearly remuneration for the Board of Directors unchanged as follows: a yearly remuneration of EUR 80,000 will be paid to the Chairman of the Board, EUR 55,000 to the Vice Chairman, EUR 55,000 to the Chairman of the Audit and Risk Management Committee, and EUR 40,000 to the other Board members. In addition, it was decided that members receive EUR 1,000 for attendance at board and committee meetings. The meeting decided that 30 percent of the yearly remuneration will be paid in Cargotec's class B shares and the rest in cash.

The Annual General Meeting elected authorised public accountants Tomi Hyryläinen and PricewaterhouseCoopers Ltd as auditors. The auditors' fees were decided to be paid according to invoice approved by the company.

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. The number of class B shares was 54,911,209, while the number of class A shares totalled 9,526,089.

On 19 March 2015, Cargotec repurchased 28,030 of its own class B shares based on the authorisation of the AGM on 18 March 2015 for a total cost of EUR 940,317.78. Shares were repurchased for the share-based incentive programme 2014. Based on the authorisation granted by the AGM, the Board decided on 18 March 2015 on a directed share issue as a reward payment for the restricted shares under this share-based incentive programme. These shares were transferred without consideration to those employees participating in the restricted shares programme who fulfilled the earnings criteria. Following the share transfer, Cargotec does not hold any own shares.

Share-based incentive programmes

In February 2015, the Board of Directors approved a new long-term incentive programme for key personnel of Cargotec for 2015–2018. The purpose of the programme is to increase Cargotec's profitability, efficient use of capital and shareholder value in the long term by attracting and retaining the required talent. The number of participants will be approximately 85 persons, including Cargotec's President and CEO and members of the Executive Board.

This programme consists of two phases. The first phase includes specific financial performance targets for the year 2015 (business area or corporate return on capital employed, ROCE). The second phase consists of an additional earnings multiplier, which is based on Cargotec's total shareholder return (TSR) at the end of a three-year performance period in 2017. The second phase serves to align the interests to that of the shareholders as well as retention. Eligible participants need to be employed by Cargotec at the beginning of 2018.

The potential reward will be delivered in Cargotec class B shares at the beginning of 2018. If the performance was on target for the maximum number of participants, the cost of the programme for the three-year period would be approximately EUR 6.5 million (for maximum performance approximately EUR 19 million). If the financial performance threshold levels are not met, there will not be any incentive payment.

No new shares will be issued in connection with the above programme and, therefore, the programme will have no diluting effect.

Recognition of the programme will begin after the grant date in the second quarter of 2015.

Option programme

The 2010 AGM confirmed that stock options will be issued for the key personnel at Cargotec and its subsidiaries. The programme includes 2010A, 2010B and 2010C stock options, with 400,000 stock options in each series and each stock option entitling its holder to subscribe for one (1) new class B share in Cargotec. For share subscription to commence, the required attainment of targets is determined by the Board of Directors. A total of 378,864 2010B stock options and 400,000

2010C stock options held by the company were cancelled, as the earnings criteria for the stock options were not fulfilled. 2010A and 2010B stock options are listed on the main list of NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd.

The share subscription period for 2010A stock options is from 1 April 2013 to 30 April 2015. The share subscription price at the end of March 2015 was EUR 18.05 per share, and the number of listed 2010A stock options was 390,286.

The share subscription period for 2010B stock options is from 1 April 2014 to 30 April 2016. The share subscription price at the end of March 2015 was EUR 28.54 per share, and the number of listed 2010B stock options was 21,136.

Market capitalisation and trading

Events after the reporting period

In late April, Cargotec announced savings measures in MacGregor to respond to the weakening market situation. MacGregor is planning to reach savings by reviewing resourcing and making the necessary adjustments with a plan to reduce the use of external workforce and the number of own personnel. Simultaneously MacGregor continues to have a strong focus on the earlier announced development programmes to improve the internal effectiveness.

The planned measures are estimated to have an effect of reducing some 220 employees globally. The target is to achieve annual savings of EUR 20 million. The initiated measures are estimated to create restructuring costs of EUR 5 million in 2015.

Short-term risks and uncertainties

Developments in the global economy and cargo flows have a direct effect on Cargotec's business environment and customers' willingness to invest. Uncertainty related to economic developments is estimated to continue this year, mainly in Europe. Risks stemming from political uncertainty, volatility on the currency and raw material markets or from the financing sector could add to this uncertainty. Greater difficulty in obtaining financing would weaken customers' liquidity and investments.

EEST 15 (29)

Many kinds of uncertainties are related to MacGregor's market situation in particular. The balancing of the oversupply in the merchant ship market is anticipated to take longer than expected, since the capacity will continue to increase further in 2015 – especially in bulk carriers – while demand is expected to grow very moderately. Simultaneously, the drop in oil price in late 2014 and uncertainty regarding the balance of demand and supply in both the short and long term may significantly reduce customers' willingness to invest in the offshore market. The concurrent deterioration of both markets will negatively impact the financial situation of shipyards. The long lead times typical to MacGregor's business mean that any weakening in order intake would be reflected in deliveries with a delay.

More information on risks is available in the annual report, Risk management.

Outlook for 2015

Cargotec's 2015 sales are expected to grow from 2014. Operating profit excluding restructuring costs for 2015 is expected to improve from 2014.

Cross-currency and interest rate swaps hedge the US Private Placement corporate bond funded in February 2007. Cash flow hedge accounting is applied for these instruments.

Financial assets and liabilities recognised at fair value through profit and loss comprise solely currency derivatives as well as cross-currency and interest rate swaps, which are classified to level 2, observable input information, in the fair value hierarchy.

The group has not given or received collateral related to derivatives from the counterparties.
