- The joint ventures are seeing a strong market for its products. The market share is in a positive development.
Offshore & Heavy Lift
Offshore and Heavy lift cranes, Hangar and watertight doors
- The division reports again weak results in the 1 st quarter with a loss of MNOK 39.
- The main reason for the losses are weak margins on ongoing work (provisions for loss making projects cover project costs but not overhead) and low utilization of our operations in Norway, China and Germany due to cancellations (STX) and delays.
- Cost reduction efforts have been implemented, resulting in a reduction of workforce of approx. 100 persons. This effort is expected to be finalized in Q2.
- Order intake for the quarter was MNOK160. Low activity in the market, specially for offshore cranes in the quarter. However there are signs of increased activity in both heavy lift and offshore and 2 pipe handler cranes was signed in May.
Services

- Services reports a quarter in line with last year.
- The earnings are still influenced by the market where low volume per order is affecting profitability.

A word related to the building blocks
The financial performance from last quarter must be radically improved. The following highlights are the building blocks:
- We are strong positioned with car carriers which will continue for years.
- Consolidating our strong market position in China and expanding cooperation partners. Order intake in JV (100%) exceeds 600 MNOK for 1st quarter.
- Our offshore products have high quality and satisfied customers.
- Our product range within offshore has been more expensive than anticipated to develop, but the repeat orders achieve profit.
- We will deliver our first drillship this year and we are in the process of finalizing delivery of our first 900t heavy lift crane, even with the termination of drillship to Sigma (STX) was a set-back.
- The impact of momentum initiatives will demonstrate in the new booked orders. Product development and product simplification actions.
- Our network of design hubs in Poland and Vietnam is set up to provide competitive cost and high quality.
Summary
- We have a road map for the improvement processes going forward in 2014 and 2015 and that has not changed;
- Productivity
- Sourcing, economy of scale and simplification of logistics
- Lead time reduction program
- Additional cost cutting to adjust capacity and increase synergies is well underway.
- The changes implemented will generate improved results. However, in near term the profitability is a challenge. We have a 2 year program.
- We start out with some strong building blocks but capitalizing on these will take time.
Outlook
The marine market remains good. Contracting of new vessels, especially bulkers continues to be at a high level and Car carriers will continue with several repeats. Container ships, especially feeder size grow up and General cargo/Heavy lift have increased since the yearend. Offshore segments of OSV with heavy cranes are in the pipeline.
