Vacon's business developed positively during the Q3 of 2013

  • According to market surveys, the global AC drive market increased by some 3% in the first six months of 2013 year-on-year. All geographical regions showed growth.
  • Vacon's revenues increased strongly in the July–September period. Revenues were so far the highest in the company's history.
  • Operating profit percentage improved in Q3 because of the growth in revenues and the cost benefits obtained from transferring material sourcing to lower-cost countries. A change in the sales mix also made a slight improvement to profitability.
  • Order intake declined in Q3 quarter–on-quarter and year-on-year due in particular to the decline in orders for renewable energy products.

Prospects for 2013

  • According to market surveys, the global AC drive market increased by some 3% in the first six months of 2013 year-on-year.
  • Vacon has previously estimated, based on information from market research institutes, that the global AC drive market would grow faster than average growth in industrial production, at an estimated rate of 5-10% in 2013.
  • Vacon considers now that there is greater uncertainty relating to the market growth estimate.
  • Vacon’s estimate of the company’s performance in the final part of the year supports the market guidelines it has issued, even though the volume of orders received declined in July–September from the previous quarter.

Risks and uncertainties in the near future

  • There are still uncertainties relating to developments in the global economy, and these may weaken demand for AC drives globally or in certain regions.
  • The court proceedings relating to the customs procedures followed by Vacon's subsidiary in China continue in the higher court, since two of the parties appealed against the ruling given by the lower court in December 2011. It is possible that the sentence imposed on Vacon may also change in the higher court, so some uncertainty still remains in this matter. Vacon made provisions in 2010 and 2011 relating to this risk.
  • Vacon's 2012 annual report gives a detailed description of the risks and uncertainties relating to the company's business and of the principles for risk management.
