Ponsse Plc to specify its outlook for the future brought out in the public The market has started to gather new strength, and the development of the turnover of the service operations and the sale of new machines is estimated to have a positive effect on the result over the last quarter. It is still challenging to predict the market but the development of profitability makes it possible to improve the result in the short- and long-term. As the number of new machines sold continues to increase, the company has the possibility to achieve a positive result in 2010. The factory capacity was increased in one shift in October with new machines still being manufactured according to orders. The development of the order flow has strengthened the order base, but temporary layoffs in operations other than sales, service and product development will be continued as capacity is being adapted to the prevailing demand. The 2009 turnover will remain below the previous year, and the operating result will be negative following the earlier direction. A more detailed financial direction for 2010 will be issued in connection with the 2009 financial statements.
