Cargotec reduces 2012 profitability guidance

CARGOTEC CORPORATION, STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE, 12 JUNE 2012 AT 9.15 A.M. (EEST)

Cargotec reduces its 2012 profitability guidance given in April due to lower
operating result in Terminals segment than previously expected. Cargotec's 2012
operating profit margin is expected to be approximately 6 percent. Sales are
still expected to grow from 2011. Earlier guidance was for sales to grow and
operating profit margin to improve from previous year's 6.6 percent level.
Terminals and Load Handling segments' operating profit margins are still
expected to improve from the previous year, but the margin improvement in
Terminals will be clearly less than previously expected.

Cargotec will initiate actions to improve efficiency and profitability in its
Terminals and Load Handling segments.
