Cargotec's President and CEO Mikael Mäkinen:
"The recovery in the market environment continued. We are delighted by the number of new orders obtained by our Industrial and Marine businesses during the second quarter while Terminal business was still rather sluggish. The value of orders secured during the second quarter increased by 55 percent year on year - a level we last achieved in the second half of 2008. Our investments in technology provide new cargo handling solutions to the market, i.e. during the second quarter we signed a major contract for the delivery of electric-driven ship cranes. The profitability of Industrial & Terminal segment turned positive during the second quarter, whilst the relative profitability of Marine continued to be exceptionally high", affirms President and CEO Mikael Mäkinen.

Operating environment
The recovery in demand for load handling equipment continued during the second quarter. However, market pickup varied from region to region and from one customer segment to another. In particular, demand for loader cranes, truck-mounted forklifts and forklift trucks as well as tail lifts picked up compared both to the previous quarter and the same period last year. This demand was boosted by the revival of industrial production and private consumption.

 

Demand for container handling equipment in ports was still showing only tentative signs of recovery, despite the increasing number of containers handled in particular in the Asian ports, as well as the improved container traffic forecasts for year 2010. Whilst the second quarter saw the first orders for large equipment after several sluggish quarters, project demand still remained rather modest, causing price pressure on the markets.

 

The market for marine cargo handling equipment picked up more than expected, especially in terms of equipment for bulk and offshore vessels. In addition, the increase in demand for RoRo equipment continued. The amount of order cancellations for marine cargo handling equipment was low in the first half. In addition, shipyards succeeded in reselling capacity freed up by cancellations, which reflected positively in new orders received by equipment suppliers.

 

The services markets were fairly quiet at the beginning of the year, but signs of recovery became visible during the second quarter, especially in spare parts. However, an improvement in customers' capacity utilisation rates should feed through into demand for cargo handling services.

 

Orders received and order book
Orders received during the second quarter totalled EUR 732 (471) million, which was 55 percent more than in the comparison period. Previously received orders by Marine for EUR 22 million were cancelled, and were removed from the order book.

 

Orders received in January-June totalled EUR 1,330 (928) million, 43 percent higher than a year before. During the first half, order cancellations totalled EUR 48 million in Marine.

 

At the end of the first half, the order book totalled EUR 2,433 (31 Dec 2009: 2,149) million, which was 13 percent higher than at the end of 2009.

 

Orders received by reporting segment

MEUR 4-6/2010 4-6/2009 Change 1-6/2010 1-6/2009 Change 1-12/2009
Industrial & Terminal 423 317 34% 839 677 24% 1,260
Marine 309 155 99% 492 251 96% 569
Internal orders 0 0   0 0   -1
Total 732 471 55% 1,330 928 43% 1,828

 

Industrial & Terminal's orders received during the second quarter totalled EUR 423 (317) million, 34 percent higher than a year before. The value of orders increased in particular in Industrial business in Americas. Orders secured mainly included small individual orders. When comparing the total value of orders secured during the second quarter with that of the first quarter, it should be noted that a large individual order worth USD 110 million for rough terrain container handlers was booked during the first quarter. Orders received in January-June totalled EUR 839 (677) million.

 

During the second quarter, Industrial & Terminal received an order for two ship-to-shore cranes from Turkey and an order for six zero emission E-One rubber-tyred gantry cranes (RTG) from Vietnam. A Russian port operator ordered six RTGs and 10 terminal tractors. In addition, an order worth more than EUR 10 million for truck-mounted forklifts was received from a company specialising in home improvement.

 

During the first quarter, Industrial & Terminal received new orders worth USD 110 million for rough terrain container handlers from Tank-Automotive Armament Command (TACOM), part of the US Department of Defence. The orders were received under a five-year production contract signed in 2008. Orders received under this contract now total approximately USD 350 million.

 

Industrial & Terminal's order book at the end of June totalled EUR 740 (31 Dec 2009: 546) million, which was 36 percent higher than at the end of 2009.

 

Marine's orders received during the second quarter accounted for EUR 309 (155) million, 99 percent more than in the comparison period. The value of the orders was higher than anticipated due to the fact that shipyards managed to resell their capacity vacated due to cancellations and postponements, and to start building new bulk ships with a short delivery time. Orders were received for cranes and hatch covers for bulk ships in particular, as well as for offshore cranes. Orders received during the first half totalled EUR 492 (251) million.

 

During the second half, Marine received a EUR 20 million order for subsea load and module handling systems from Singapore as well as orders worth EUR 20 million for cranes and hatch covers for bulk carriers from a Chinese shipyard. These orders comprise 68 cranes and design and key components for hatch covers for 26 vessels. Moreover, Marine received a EUR 20 million order for electric-drive cranes for six general cargo vessels from a Korean shipyard.

 

During the first quarter, Marine received an order for two knuckle-jib cranes from Singapore. The value of this order was approximately EUR 12 million. These active heave compensated cranes will be installed on an ultra-deepwater supply vessel and self-propelled accommodation barge. In addition, Marine will deliver an active heave compensated knuckle-jib crane for an offshore vessel being built in the Netherlands.

 

Orders for container lashings, hatch covers and RoRo equipment were also received during the reporting period. A Korean shipyard ordered lashings for 17 mega container ships. Lashings will also be delivered for 13 container ships owned by a Canadian shipowner. Hatch covers for six bulk ships under construction at a Korean shipyard will be delivered in 2011. This contract follows an order from December 2009 for 24 cranes on the same vessels. Moreover, a contract was signed for RoRo equipment for six vessels, and self-unloading systems will be delivered for three cement carriers for an Indian customer. In addition, an order was signed for a fuel receiving system for a Singaporean power plant.

 

Marine's order book at the end of the first half totalled EUR 1,694 (31 Dec 2009: 1,604) million. Close to 70 percent of the order book is bulk, general cargo and container ship-related. Offshore support vessels-related orders comprise more than 10 percent of the order book. Orders cancelled in January-June, EUR 48 million, were removed from the order book.

 

Services orders received in January-June increased by a quarter from the comparison period. Although a large number of small contracts typical of the service business were signed, customers further delayed decision-making related to major contracts. Major service orders received during the period included three-year full service contracts for RoRo equipment for 25 vessels from Grimaldi Group and agreements for conversions of RoRo equipment on five Ropax vessels from the Swedish Stena Line. In addition, a refurbishment project for a cement ship unloader was received from a Singaporean cement terminal. 

 

Sales
Second quarter sales declined 6 percent from the comparison period and totalled EUR 638 (678) million. Sales grew from the first quarter by 15 percent.

 

January-June sales decreased 12 percent from the comparison period and amounted to EUR 1,193 (1,353) million. In terms of sales, EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) was the largest market, its share being 42 (50) percent of consolidated sales. The Americas' share of sales was 18 (16) and that of Asia Pacific 40 (33) percent.

 

Sales by reporting segment

MEUR 4-6/2010 4-6/2009 Change 1-6/2010 1-6/2009 Change 1-12/2009
Industrial & Terminal 362 421 -14% 676 878 -23% 1,573

Internal sales 0 0   0 -   -1
Total 638 678 -6% 1,193 1,353 -12% 2,581

 

Industrial & Terminal's sales for the second quarter totalled EUR 362 (421) million, which was 14 percent less than a year before. Sales grew from the first quarter by 15 percent.

 

Industrial & Terminal's sales for January-June were EUR 676 (878) million, 23 percent lower than in the comparison period. At the beginning of the year, sales were burdened by a low order book. In addition, changes in cranes required by the EU Machinery Directive were executed at the beginning of the year in parallel with transfers of production between assembly factories. Delivery volumes grew during the second quarter as production was ramped up.

 

Marine's sales for the second quarter totalled EUR 277 (257) million, representing 8 percent growth on the comparison period. Growth from the first quarter was 15 percent. January-June sales for Marine were EUR 518 (475) million, which was 9 percent more that in the comparison period. This sales growth was the result of the strong order book and successful project deliveries.

 

Services sales during the second quarter amounted to EUR 179 (166) million starting to gradually reflect a recovery of the service market. Services sales amounted to EUR 125 (113) million at Industrial & Terminal and at Marine EUR 54 (53) million.

 

In January-June, services sales amounted to EUR 337 (341) million, representing 28 (25) percent of total sales. Services sales amounted to EUR 238 (233) million at Industrial & Terminal, representing 35 (27) percent of the reporting segment's sales. Services sales at Marine amounted to EUR 98 (108) million, which was 19 (23) percent of its sales. 

 

Financial result
The operating profit for the second quarter increased clearly from the comparison period totalling EUR 37.2 (-10.0) million. Operating profit includes EUR 1.6 (13.1) million in restructuring costs, of which EUR 0.4 (12.2) million are related to Industrial & Terminal, EUR 0.2 (-) million to Marine and EUR 1.0 (0.9) million to corporate functions.

 

Operating profit for the second quarter, excluding restructuring costs, was EUR 38.8 (3.0) million, representing 6.1 (0.4) percent of sales. Operating profit for Industrial & Terminal, excluding restructuring costs, was EUR 7.4 (-6.3) million and EUR 43.7 (23.3) million for Marine.

 

The consolidated operating profit for January-June totalled EUR 50.7 (-3.9) million, representing 4.2 (-0.3) percent of sales. Operating profit includes EUR 3.9 (21.9) million in restructuring costs, of which EUR 2.0 (20.5) million are related to Industrial & Terminal, EUR 0.3 (-) million to Marine and EUR 1.6 (1.4) million to corporate functions. Operating profit for January-June, excluding restructuring costs, tripled compared to previous year and totalled EUR 54.6 (18.0) million. Operating profit for Industrial & Terminal, excluding restructuring costs, was EUR 0.1 (-0.7) million and EUR 78.0 (41.7) million for Marine.

 

Industrial & Terminal's first half operating profit was burdened by low volumes. In addition, profitability was hampered by additional costs related to challenges in ramping-up production. Thanks to improved volumes, Industrial & Terminal's profitability grew towards the end of the first half. Marine's deliveries during the first half were still related to exceptionally high-margin orders received in the earlier upturn. Restructuring measures executed also improved profitability.

 

Net financing expenses were EUR -7.9 (-8.7) million for the second quarter and EUR -14.6 (-14.0) million for the first half.

New products were introduced to the market, such as a new empty container handler, which meets the strictest requirements for energy efficiency and ergonomics, and a new truck-mounted forklift with a telescopic boom that allows easier loading and unloading. Cargotec also continued product development projects to meet the new Machine Directive 2006/42/EC safety regulations. In addition, the launch of the EcoService concept in February will aim at bringing new levels of cost efficiency, productivity and reliability to terminal customers' operations. Furthermore, three new hooklifts were introduced in the demountable product family.

 

In March, Cargotec signed an agreement with the multinational Ros Roca Environment, according to which Cargotec will undertake the representation of Dennis Eagle and Ros Roca waste compactors for refuse collection vehicles in Finland, Sweden and Norway. This cooperation comprises sales, marketing and service.

 

Cargotec has designed an innovative vehicle transfer system for the US Navy to transfer military vehicles including tanks between ships at sea. Sea trials were successfully completed during the first quarter. The aim is to provide the US military with the capability for large-scale logistics movements from sea to shore without dependency on foreign ports.

 

Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure for the first half, excluding acquisitions and customer financing, totalled EUR 28.0 (41.9) million. Investments in customer financing were EUR 5.9 (13.7) million. Depreciation for the first half amounted to EUR 29.1 (27.5) million.

Transfer from rented premises to Cargotec's own premises at a new site began at the end of the second quarter of 2010, and finalising of the investment will continue during the third quarter. The cash flow impact of the investment cost was EUR 9 million for the first half.

North and South American personnel represented 11 (11) percent, Asia Pacific 25 (26) percent and the rest of the world 3 (2) percent of total employees.

 

Adjusting capacity to demand and other restructuring measures
Capacity adjustments and other restructuring measures that began in 2008 were finalised during the first quarter 2010. As a result, the number of employees fell by approximately 3,200: some 2,860 in Industrial & Terminal, 350 in Marine and 10 in group administrative functions.

 

Restructuring initiatives, including structural capacity adjustment measures, were estimated to create total annual cost savings exceeding EUR 150 million.

Share-based incentive programme
On 5 March 2010, the Board of Directors decided to establish a new share-based incentive programme for Cargotec Executives. The programme includes three earnings periods, each of them lasting for three calendar years, and they commence in 2010, 2011 and 2012. The Board of Directors will decide on the earnings criteria and on targets to be established for them, as well as the maximum amount of the payable reward for each earning period. The earnings criteria for the earning period 2010-2012 are Cargotec's operating profit margin and sales of the fiscal year 2012. 

 

The potential reward will be paid partly as Cargotec's class B shares and partly in cash in 2013, 2014 and 2015. The proportion to be paid in cash is intended to cover taxes and tax-related costs arising from the reward. The rewards to be paid on the basis of the earning period 2010-2012 will correspond to the approximate value of a maximum total of 100,000 Cargotec class B shares (including also the proportion to be paid in cash).

 

The remaining earning periods 2010 and 2011 of the former share-based incentive programme 2007-2011 were not commenced as the new programme replacing the current programme was implemented as from the beginning of 2010. On the basis of the former programme, a total of 31,356 class B shares were paid as reward to key personnel for the first earning period 2007-2008. No rewards were paid for the second earning period 2009 as the targets established for the earnings criteria were not attained. A total of 387,500 series B shares were initially reserved for the programme.

 

Stock options
The AGM confirmed that stock options will be issues to the key personnel of Cargotec and its subsidiaries. The target group of the programme is approximately 60 persons including the members of Cargotec Executive Board. The share subscription period for stock options 2010A, will be 1 April 2013-30 April 2015, for stock options 2010B, 1 April 2014-30 April 2016 and for stock options 2010C, 1 April 2015-30 April 2017.

 

The beginning of the share subscription period requires attainment of targets established for a performance criterion determined by the Board of Directors annually. Those stock options, for which the targets have not been attained, will expire. The Board of Directors has decided that if the operating profit of the financial year 2010 is below EUR 100 million, the share subscription period with stock options 2010A will not commence; if the operating profit of the financial year 2010 is at least EUR 100 million but below EUR 120 million, the share subscription period will commence with half of the stock options 2010A; if the operating profit of the financial year 2010 is EUR 120 million or above, the share subscription period will commence with all of the stock options 2010A. The share subscription price for stock option 2010A is EUR 21.35/share.

 

Market capitalisation and trading
At the end of the second quarter, the total market value of class B shares was EUR 1,117 million, excluding treasury shares held by the Company. The period-end market capitalisation, in which unlisted class A shares are valued at the average price of class B shares on the last trading day of the reporting period, was EUR 1,324 million, excluding treasury shares held by the Company.

 

The class B share closed at EUR 21.55 on 30 June 2010. The volume weighted average share price in January-June was EUR 21.78, the highest quotation being EUR 26.27 and the lowest EUR 19.16. In January-June, approximately 24 million class B shares were traded on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd., corresponding to a turnover of approximately EUR 529 million.

 

Short-term risks and uncertainties
Despite the signs of recovery in the world economy, its development is still characterised by uncertainty. In particular, this uncertainty surrounds the pace of the recovery in investments in port container handling equipment. Improvements in the sales and profitability of Terminal business may be affected by possible postponements of investments. During the year underway, developments in customers' capacity utilisation rates will have an effect on demand and development of services.

 

In view of the prevailing uncertainty, Cargotec monitors, and continues seeking to proactively manage, both customer and supplier risks, which may have a detrimental effect through credit losses or delivery chain problems.

 

Cargotec still estimates that approximately EUR 300 million of Marine's order book involves a risk of cancellation. However, the likelihood of such cancellations materialising decreased substantially during the second quarter, and the risk mainly relates to deliveries in the coming years. Overcapacity in shipping decreased during the first half, but there is still a risk of shipowners reappraising the need to cancel ordered vessels or postpone deliveries.

 

Outlook
Cargotec continues to estimate 2010 consolidated sales to be on 2009 level for both Industrial & Terminal and Marine segments and consolidated operating profit to exceed EUR 100 million. The recovery in the market environment and the resulting growth in order volumes support growth in Industrial. The sales of Terminal are expected to fall short of 2009 levels due to the slower recovery of these markets, as second half orders will have a minor effect on full-year sales due to delivery times. Based on the healthy first half development, strong order book and new orders received still to be delivered during 2010, sales in Marine will reach year 2009 level.

Acquisitions and disposals      
In May, Cargotec acquired 25 per cent of the shares of Japanese MacGREGOR-Kayaba Ltd. After the acquisition, Cargotec owns all shares in the company.

Accounting principles
The interim report 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 for 2009. All figures presented have been rounded and consequently the sum of individual figures may deviate from the presented sum figure.

 

Adoption of the new and revised IFRS standards as of January 1, 2010
Starting from January 1, 2010 Cargotec has adopted the following revised standards published in 2008 and 2009 by the IASB:
- IFRS 3R, Business Combinations (revised). The adoption of the revised standard has an impact on the accounting of business combinations.
- Amendment to IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. The amendment has an impact on accounting of the changes in ownership in subsidiaries.
- Amendment to IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement: Eligible Hedged Items. The amendment clarifies the guidance of the hedge accounting.
Additionally, Cargotec has adopted the amendments related to the IFRS 2008 and 2009 Annual Improvements, which have been endorsed by EU. Aforementioned changes have no material impact on the interim report.

 

Restatement of reporting segments' comparable figures
As of January 1, 2010 Cargotec has two reporting segments, Industrial & Terminal and Marine. At the same time the definition of Services business was clarified. Reporting segments' financial information for comparable periods has been restated accordingly.
