Unchanged outlook
There is significant uncertainty given the recession under way in Finland, which has a negative impact on customers’ consumption patterns. Other factors contributing to this uncertainty are the current geopolitical situation and its potential impact mostly on energy prices. All in all, as a result the management expects that income before taxes for 2024 will weaken to a level that is worse than in 2023 excluding the EUR 8.6 M gain on the sale of Rosella, which is the same conclusion as for the last report period.
