* Comparable figures have been restated due to a change in IAS19 ‘Employee
benefits'. The revised standard eliminates the possibility of using the
corridor approach in recognising the actuarial gains and losses from defined
benefit plans. The revised IAS 19 standard requires the actuarial gains and
losses to be recognised immediately in the statement of other comprehensive
income. For 2012, the restated total equity has decreased by EUR 52.0 million
to EUR 1,576.6 million, and the restated operating profit excluding
non-recurring items has decreased by EUR 1.3 million to EUR 231.0 million.
** Including finance leases.
*** Rolling 12-month period.
**** Includes continuing and discontinued operations.
Harri-Pekka Kaukonen, President and CEO
”Learning's solid performance continued in the second quarter whereas
structural changes accelerated in consumer media.
Advertising markets in Sanoma's main operating countries continued to be
depressed. The likelihood of clearly improving market conditions in the second
half of the year is estimated to be low. In addition, circulation sales
continue to be under pressure, impacting our sales and profitability.
The ongoing EUR 60 million gross savings programme is proceeding according to
plan. The programme and additional actions executed are not able to compensate
for the estimated decline in our consumer media net sales. Therefore we were
forced to revise our outlook for 2013. The changed outlook also affects our
free cash flow.
To counteract the structural changes, including underlying shift in consumer
behaviour and advertising spend, we will continue to invest in transforming our
core operations. In addition, we have commenced a redesign of our consumer
media operations, including our product and service portfolios as well as cost
structures. We will make strategic choices to enhance our focus. This redesign
will change the financial profile of the Group and may affect asset
valuations.”
Group outlook for 2013 (unchanged from the revised outlook published on 23 July
2013)
In 2013, Sanoma expects that the Group's consolidated net sales will decline
more than 4% compared to 2012 and operating profit excluding non-recurring
items is estimated to be below EUR 180 million.
Sanoma's outlook is based on the assumptions that the European economic
environment remains under pressure and adversely impacts advertising markets in
Sanoma's main operating countries. The likelihood of clearly improving market
conditions in the second half of the year is estimated to be low.
