Ponsse’s consolidated net sales for 1 January – 30 June 2022 amounted to Euro 352 million, which is 19.4% more than for 1 January – 30 June 2021. International business operations accounted for 78.8% of net sales.
Net sales were regionally distributed as follows: Northern Europe 39.2%, Central and Southern Europe 22.9%, North and South America 33.8% and other countries 4.1%.
Order intake for the 1H 2022 totalled Euro 396.6 million, while period-end order books were valued at Euro 357.1 million.
President and CEO Juho Nummela says: “For the continuing operations, demand in Ponsse’s market areas remained at a healthy level throughout the 2Q. Our customers’ high rate of employment had a positive impact on the demand for new machines, used machines and aftersales services. The order intake for the 2Q was approximately Euro 185 million.
The company’s net sales for the 2Q 2022 amounted to Euro 195.9 million for its continuing operations. The fastest growth in the first half of the year was seen by our aftersales services and Epec, our technology company. Our aftersales services experienced strong growth thanks to our customers’ high rate of employment. Harvesting volumes increased and our customers’ work situation improved after the importing of Russian timber and sawn timber stopped. The market situation of our technology company Epec was good, and their new solutions are an excellent match for the demands for electrification and autonomous products.”
Ponsse Plc is a company specialising in the sales, manufacture, servicing and technology of cut-to-length method forest machines.
