- Investments in the strategic development of Cargotec will continue and growth in services is expected to remain strong. Based on the record high order book at the beginning of the year management estimates sales growth in 2008 to be at the year 2007 level. General market activity and Cargotec's orders received are expected to continue healthy although in MacGREGOR the achievement of the exceptionally high order intake level of 2007 is a stretch. Operating margin in 2008 is expected to improve from the 2007 level. The U.S. market continues weak without yet any signs of improvement.
The figures in this financial statements review are audited.
Cargotec's President and CEO Mikael Mäkinen:
"The year 2007 provided both successes and challenges. Our sales growth clearly exceeded our financial target. We were extremely successful in two areas defined as key when sales in both services and Asia grew significantly. Despite various acquisitions our balance sheet remained strong. We are not satisfied with the profitability of our operations although it is partly explained by investments into Cargotec's strategic development. Nevertheless, we begin this year with confidence, our persistent work continues."

Operating Environment
Demand for Hiab's load handling equipment was very buoyant during 2007 in Europe and Asia Pacific. Demand increased in various customer segments, particularly in Eastern Europe, Russia and in many markets of Asia Pacific. The lengthening of truck delivery times in Europe during the year also lengthened the delivery times of loader cranes and demountable systems. In the United States, demand for load handling equipment was weak particularly for truck-mounted forklifts and tail lifts, following the fall in construction market in late spring. Demand for new trucks was also sluggish in the United States. Demand for forestry cranes continued strong in forest machines.
Demand for Kalmar's container handling equipment was healthy throughout 2007. In particular, demand for reachstackers grew significantly whereas that for straddle carriers was lower than in 2006. The terminal tractor market slackened somewhat during the fourth quarter but, considering the whole year, the markets remained healthy. In the Middle East, market activity was lively. With respect to heavy industrial forklifts, the markets continued to be very strong in Europe.
Demand for MacGREGOR's marine cargo flow and offshore solutions was record-high in 2007. The number of new vessel orders in shipyards around the world increased. Demand for ship cranes reached a record level, reflecting strong demand for bulk carriers and general cargo vessels. The RoRo equipment market was very buoyant, particularly with respect to PCTCs (pure car and truck carriers). Demand for offshore solutions was very lively throughout the year with MacGREGOR securing several major orders. With respect to bulk handling equipment, markets were strong in Asia and healthy in the Middle East and Europe.
Demand for Cargotec Services remained favourable throughout the year. Demand for load handling equipment services was strong in Europe due to higher levels of installed equipment whereas in the United States demand fell due to the low usage rate of such equipment. Demand for container handling equipment services remained high throughout the year, particularly in Europe and Asia. The market for marine cargo flow services remained strong, particularly in Europe and Asia. The conversion of tankers into bulk ships is increasing demand for conversion projects.
Orders Received
Orders received by Cargotec in 2007 totalled a record high of EUR 4,106 (1-12/2006: 2,910) million. The value of orders secured during the fourth quarter amounted to EUR 1,214 (10-12/2006: 716) million.

Cargotec had EUR 585 million of committed credit facilities on December 31, 2007. These facilities were unused. The EUR 225 million (USD 300 million) Private Placement placed in December 2006 with U.S. institutional investors was funded in February 2007. Some 14 U.S. institutional investors participated in the transaction. The placement has been hedged through Cross Currency and Interest Rate Swaps into a fixed interest rate euro loan. Its interest rate varies between 4.525 and 4.756 percent, depending on the maturity, which varies between 7 and 12 years.
New Products and Product Development
In January-December 2007, Cargotec's research and product development expenditure was EUR 46.4 (1-12/2006: 31.3) million, representing 1.5 (1.2) percent of sales. During the year special focus in R&D was placed on environmental friendliness and utilisation of automation in equipment.
During the year, Hiab launched two new loader cranes. The HIAB XS 211 loader crane complements the mid-sized loader crane range. The HIAB XS 1055 launched in Q3 is the largest Hiab loader crane by capacity, which provides users with the longest reach and highest lifting capacity delivered by any HIAB crane on the marketplace today. The most powerful of Hiab's hooklifts, the XR30, was launched in the fourth quarter and was very well received by the market. Other product launches included the XR 26 hooklift system, designed in particular for the needs of the waste management and recycling industry. Hiab continued development work on its truck-mounted forklifts by introducing the MOFFETT M4 model, attracting orders from short-range local transports and the gas industry in particular. During the first quarter, Hiab launched a folding type tail lift model for the UK and French markets that requires less loading space.
Kalmar continued to develop its automated solutions and environmentally friendly equipment in 2007. Further development of container position verification, and the control and monitoring systems of automated stacking cranes continued. These systems are being applied in, for instance, the automation project of the HHLA Burchardkai container terminal in Hamburg. The first terminal tractors featuring a remote control system (Remote Machine Interface, RMI) developed by Kalmar were sold during the first quarter. This system has been previously used in other Kalmar container handling equipment. Product development work on hybrid solutions continued through two-year terminal tractor R&D project which is a joint effort by Kalmar, the ports of New York and New Jersey and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The new generation terminal tractors with CAN-BUS monitoring system that speeds up their operation was launched to the market during autumn. In the second quarter, Kalmar introduced the remodelled E-One+ RTG crane which, similarly to its predecessor, is fully electrically operated and does not have any hydraulics. The new version brings improvements to the maintenance, operating safety and assembly of the unit. At the end of 2007, Kalmar launched a new automated product, Smartspot, designed to optimise container handling between terminal tractors and ship-to-shore cranes or RTG cranes. Also at the year end, Kalmar introduced a new spreader model designed specifically for the U.S. and Canadian markets. In November, the company rolled out a new F generation model for empty container handling, enabling more rapid and efficient container hoisting. The new model also features improved environmental efficiency.
MacGREGOR continued to develop electronically operated cargo handling solutions, including ship cranes, ramps, car decks and hatch covers. In the third quarter, the company introduced a new lift-away, multi-panel hatch cover model enabling the user to lift five hatch covers at a time. The first electronically controlled ship crane began operating during the second quarter. Furthermore, the company presented fully automated container fittings that will be subjected to field tests, and continued to develop a new generation monitoring system for ship cranes. MacGREGOR delivered the first electric E-Roll hatch covers for the first of altogether 12 vessels ordered by a Japanese shipyard. These environmentally friendly, side-rolling hatch covers are first raised from the ship deck using electrically powered cylinders, after which they are opened by a geared electrical motor. The Japanese Kawasaki shipyard ordered hatch covers of this type for three of its vessels. In 2007, MacGREGOR also introduced a new bulk cargo storage and handling system enabling vessels to take up to 50 percent more cargo. In addition, a new Hydramarine crane was launched with a lifting capacity of 400 ton and active heave compensation.
Capital Expenditure
Cargotec's capital expenditure for January-December 2007, excluding acquisitions and customer financing, totalled EUR 53.2 (1-12/2006: 46.6) million. Customer financing investments were EUR 37.5 (22.2) million.
In the second quarter, Hiab decided to centralise its European truck-mounted forklift production to the Dundalk production unit in Ireland. The Oude Leije production unit in the Netherlands was converted into a technical centre serving European customers. In the first quarter, a new assembly unit was opened in Raisio, Finland, enabling the simultaneous assembly of up to 12 truck superstructures. The purpose of this investment is to cut delivery times and increase the unit's efficiency.
In 2007, Hiab decided to combine its loader crane and forestry crane product lines. The new Crane product line began operating on January 1, 2008. This organisational change will strengthen the use of shared resources in crane product development, manufacturing and marketing.

EUR 356 (1-12/2006: 300) million.
EUR 356 (1-12/2006: 300) million.
Acquisitions concluded by Cargotec in 2007 significantly increased the number of personnel in Europe and Asia, in addition to which new personnel were recruited for various operations in Asia Pacific and Europe. In the United States, the operations of the load handling equipment production units were restructured and, consequently, the number of personnel decreased in line with weaker market demand.
In 2007, Cargotec's HR management adopted a new, shared reporting practice providing more extensive information on employees to support its decision-making on a global level. Furthermore, Cargotec's people strategy action plan focused on the planning and implementation of a human resources development and training structure as well as the development of uniform processes and tools supporting the activities of the firm's HR management. Other focus areas included recruiting and competence management.
Environment
Cargotec's environmental policy defines the Company's environmental principles. The main environmental effects of Cargotec's operations are related to the use of its products. Compared to these, the environmental effects of Cargotec's own factories are insignificant, relating mainly to energy and material use, recycling and waste. For this reason, environmental life cycle assessments are increasingly focused on product development and service operations.
The recyclability of most of Cargotec's products is high, due to their substantial steel content. Other product benefits include a long useful life and good serviceability. Careful and regular servicing of equipment reduces its environmental effects and extends its useful life. Improving the energy efficiency of products forms an important part of product development.
The certified ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 quality and environmental management systems form the basis of Cargotec's environmental management. The Company's regular external audits and management audits are aimed at monitoring the achievement of the related objectives.
Cargotec seeks to create certified environmental management systems for all of its production sites. Eight of Hiab's 16 production units and two of its sales companies apply environmental management systems certified under ISO 14001. These systems cover over two thirds of the sales of Hiab's production units. Five of Kalmar's seven production units apply certified environmental management systems, these systems covering over half of the sales of Kalmar's production units. Furthermore, two of Hiab's production units and two of Kalmar's production units are planning to certify their environmental management systems during 2008. MacGREGOR commissions most of its products from selected partners independently responsible for their production processes. Operational guidelines related to the management of environmental issues are included in the quality systems of most of MacGREGOR units.
The handling of environmental risks and responsibilities forms part of continuous company processes. In the context of corporate acquisitions and divestments, Cargotec analyses environmental issues as part of the due diligence process and manages any identified responsibilities according to standardised practices. An environmental assessment was performed in connection with all acquisitions completed in 2007. Furthermore, a programme has been drawn up for carrying out an environmental assessment at all of Cargotec's current production sites.
Risks and Risk Management
Cargotec's President and CEO and the Executive Board are responsible for the Company's risk management activities and their implementation and control, and report to the Board of Directors. The Company has an internal auditing function which is responsible for internal control and business risk auditing. The internal auditing reports to the Board's Audit Committee. It is the task of the corporate Treasury function to manage financial risks centrally, while business areas and units are responsible for managing the risks involved in their own operations. Matters related to risk management are systematically evaluated during the various business units' quality and environmental system audits and management reviews, and as part of corporate restructuring.
Risk is defined as any internal or external threat or uncertainty that may prevent or restrict it from carrying out its operations and achieving its goals. Risks are classified into strategic and business risks, financial risks, and operational risks and hazard risks.
Cargotec has launched a project aimed at developing its internal controls. The purpose of this project is to create a system enabling the management to evaluate whether the Company's activities are efficient and in line with targets, whether its reporting is reliable and whether it operates in accordance with the legislation, rules and regulations in force. The system will be established in line with the generally accepted COSO framework (Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission). After the current status of internal controls has been analysed, the various functions will draw up plans regarding the development of the measures required. The Audit Committee will monitor the progress of the development projects.
Strategic and business risks are related to business cycles in the global economy and Cargotec's customer industries, the availability and price development of raw materials and components, acquisitions, and dealers' and subcontractors' activities.
Cargotec's treasury operations and financial risk management principles are defined in the Treasury Policy. The Company's financial risks are centrally managed and administered by Cargotec Treasury, which draws up financial risk reports for the management on a regular basis. Financial risks arising from Cargotec's business activities include currency, interest rate, refinancing and liquidity, counterparty and operative credit risks. The Company seeks to protect itself against these risks in order to ensure a financially sound basis for developing its business operations.
Operational risks and hazard risks relate to persons, property, processes, products and information technology. The materialisation of such risks may lead to bodily injuries, property damage, business interruption or product liability claims. Cargotec's main activities related to the management of these risks are related first and foremost to increasing product safety and information security and assuring business continuity. With respect to key person risks, succession plans for leadership and key assignments are updated on an annual basis.
Responsibility for the management of key operational risks and hazard risks lies with the Company's risk management function and business area and unit management, in particular. Cargotec's main hazard risks include risks related to property, business interruption, general and product liability and logistics. In addition to preventive risk management measures, the Company protects itself against these risks by taking out insurance policies that cover all units.

Cargotec's Financial Targets and Incentive Programme for Key Managers
In January 2007, Cargotec published its new financial targets and a share-based incentive programme for the key managers for the years 2007-2011. The purpose of the programme encouraging share ownership is to align the interests of key managers to Cargotec's strategy and financial targets as well as contribute to making them long-term shareholders of the Company. The incentive programme covers some 60 individuals. The programme offers key managers a possibility to earn a reward in Cargotec class B shares based on accomplishment of set targets.
Cargotec's financial targets are the following: annual sales growth exceeding 10 percent (incl. acquisitions), raising the operating profit margin to 10 percent, and maintaining the gearing below 50 percent. The targets have been set for the years 2007-2011.
The incentive programme consists of four earnings periods, of which the first is two years and the following three periods one year each. The Board of Directors decides on the target group of the earnings period and their maximum reward at the beginning of each earnings period.
Potential rewards from the incentive programme during 2007-2011 are based on achievement of five-year sales and operating profit targets as defined in Cargotec's strategy. The rewards will be paid during 2009-2012 in both class B shares and cash. The cash portion is dedicated to cover possible taxes and tax-related payments resulting from the reward. The shares distributed as reward will contain a prohibition to hand over or sell the shares within one year of the end of an earnings period with the exception of the final earnings period when no prohibitions are included. The maximum amount to be paid out as shares is 387,500 class B shares currently held by the Company as treasury shares.

In the second half of the year, a total of 1,200,000 own class B shares were repurchased. Altogether, Cargotec holds 1,904,725 class B shares in treasury.
Short-term Risks and Uncertainties
Cargotec's principal short-term risks and uncertainties are related to general economic development and the availability of components.
A major decline in construction activities in the United States has been reflected in the demand for Cargotec's load handling equipment. The generally higher uncertainty related to the global economic development makes estimating short-term future more difficult. A more general slackening of economic growth in the U.S. and its reflection in other parts of the world might decrease Cargotec's customers' willingness to invest.
Cargotec has outsourced a significant proportion of its component production and part of its assembly operations. Cargotec strives to anticipate its component needs so that subcontractors can flexibly meet demand. Due to generally high demand for many of the components used by Cargotec, their availability remains tight. Additionally, high demand for trucks in Europe may have an adverse impact on the delivery schedules of Hiab products during the first half of the year.
Cargotec has made a significant number of acquisitions during the past 12 months. Although these acquisitions are relatively small in size and geographically dispersed, integrations always involve a degree of uncertainty.
Board of Directors' Proposal on the Distribution of Profit
The parent company's distributable equity on December 31, 2007 is EUR 890,371,965.27 of which net income for the period is EUR 95,444,925.87. The Board of Directors will propose to the Annual General meeting convening on February 29, 2008, that of the distributable profit, a dividend of EUR 1.04 per each of the 9,526,089 class A shares and EUR 1.05 per each of 54,694,284 class B shares in circulation be paid, totalling EUR 65,336,169.51. The rest of the distributable equity, EUR 825,035,795.76, will be retained and carried forward.
No significant changes have occurred in the Company's financial position after the end of the financial year. The Company's liquidity is good and, in the Board of Directors' view, the proposed distribution of dividend does not pose a risk to the Company's financial standing.
Outlook
Investments in the strategic development of Cargotec will continue and growth in services is expected to remain strong. Based on the record high order book at the beginning of the year management estimates sales growth in 2008 to be at the year 2007 level. General market activity and Cargotec's orders received are expected to continue healthy although in MacGREGOR the achievement of the exceptionally high order intake level of 2007 is a stretch. Operating margin in 2008 is expected to improve from the 2007 level. The U.S. market continues weak without yet any signs of improvement.
Annual General Meeting
Cargotec Corporation's Annual General Meeting will be held at the Marina Congress Center in Helsinki on Friday, February 29, 2008 at 10 a.m.

Total cash outflow from acquisitions |
155.6 |
A goodwill of EUR 10.2 million was recognised of the acquisition of the minority shares of Kalmar India Pvt. Ltd and Kalmar Asia Pacific Ltd. The cash outflow from these acquisitions was EUR 13.1 million.
The goodwill is attributable to the experienced and capable personnel employed by the businesses and to the synergies. Management estimates that synergies are gained from services' greater global presence, utilisation of economies of scale and integration of sourcing and sales network for new products. Synergies are also expected from the possibility to expand operations to new market areas and to utilise new product know-how and new technologies in developing current business.
Accounting Principles
The financial statements review has been prepared according to the International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the annual financial statements of 2007. All figures presented have been rounded and consequently the sum of individual figures may deviate from the presented sum figure.
Adoption of new or revised IFRS standards and interpretations starting in January 1, 2007
Starting from January 1, 2007 Cargotec has adopted the following new and amended standards and interpretations by the IASB published in 2006:
- IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures
- IAS 1 Amendment, Capital Disclosures
- IFRIC 10, Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment
- IFRIC 11, IFRS 2 - Group and Treasury Share Transactions
The adoption of the new and revised standards and interpretations did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements except on the notes information.
Reclassification of income statement items
In annual financial statements of 2007 share of associated companies' and joint ventures' net income is presented above operating profit if they relate to Cargotec's business. The comparative figures of 2006 have been restated accordingly.
Share-based payments
The share-based incentive scheme for top management that was approved by the Board of Directors in July 2005 has ended in March 2007. The members of the scheme received 20,660 Cargotec 2005B-option rights and in cash 65,000 synthetic option rights. Fair value of a synthetic option was EUR 28.22 at payment day.
In January 2007, Cargotec published a new share-based incentive scheme for the Company's key managers for the years 2007-2011. The rewards will be paid during 2009-2012 in both class B shares and cash. The cash portion is dedicated to cover possible taxes and tax-related payments resulting from the total reward. Shares distributed as reward will contain a prohibition to hand over or sell the shares within one year of the end of an earnings period with the exception of the final earnings period when no prohibitions are included. The shares will be lost if the holder leaves the Company before the prohibition period ends.
At the end of December 2007, the earnings period 2007-2008 involves 66 persons. If they were to receive the maximum number of shares in accordance with the scheme, a total of 144,925 shares, their shareholding obtained via the programme would amount to 0.1 percent of the total voting rights of Company's class A and B shares. The incentive scheme is booked and valued according to the Share-based payments -accounting principle presented in the annual financial statements of 2006.
