Cargotec will initiate an evaluation of strategic options of MacGregor including a potential sale of the business.
Kalmar’s focus will shift towards mobile solutions and will start planning an exit from the heavy port cranes business.

In February, Cargotec published its 2021 annual report and financial statements. The Annual Report 2021 consists of the annual review, financial review, corporate governance statement and remuneration report. The financial review includes the Board of Directors’ report, the financial statements, and the auditor’s report.
In the Board of Directors’ report, Cargotec for the first time also reports the group sales, capital expenditure and operating expenditure according to the EU taxonomy classification system. In 2021, the proportion of taxonomy-eligible economic activities in Cargotec’s total turnover was 100 percent, 100 percent in the capital expenditure, and 100 percent in the operational expenditure.
In March, Cargotec's Annual General Meeting was held virtually. The Annual General Meeting approved a distribution of a dividend of EUR 1.08 for each outstanding class B shares. The dividend payment day was 28 March 2022.
After the AGM, Cargotec's Board of Directors organising meeting 2022 elected Ilkka Herlin to continue as Chair of the Board. Jaakko Eskola was elected as Vice Chair of the Board.
We regret to see that the conflict has escalated into war after Russia’s military attack. The attack is a violation of human rights and there is no justification for it. Our thoughts are with those people suffering from the shocking actions. Despite the horrific consequences of the war, the general impact, however, in Cargotec's overall business at this stage is low. Below some Q&A about the situation.
Q: How big a share of your sales comes from Russia and Ukraine?
A: We have stopped all sales to Russia and Belarus until further notice. We have had sales to Russia and Ukraine, but the countries have not been among our top 10 markets. In 2021, Russia’s share of total sales was below 1%. Ukraine's share was even smaller.
Q: Do you have any assembly operations or suppliers in Russia or in Ukraine?
A: We don’t have assembly units either in Russia or in Ukraine. We have a limited number of suppliers in the countries. However, some of our suppliers get some of the steel from Ukraine.
Q: Do we have any employees in Ukraine and/or in Russia?
A: We don't have any of employees in Ukraine. In Russia, we have roughly 50 employees.
Q: What are the long term implications of the war for Cargotec?
The situation is evolving rapidly, on a daily basis, and it is too early to draw any conclusions. A prolonged conflict situation would most probably affect global economic growth adversely.
Q: Has Cargotec supported the civil victims of the war by donating money through charities?
A: The Cargotec Board of Directors has made the decision to donate 100,000 euros to charities supporting the people in need. The donation will be made through two international charities; the Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund (50%) and Unicef (50%).
