In 2015, a mix of favourable macro-economic trends helped lift Jotun continues to grow the organisation. In 2015, the Jotun’s overall results. Positive currency effects and lower raw company opened a new factory in Brazil, new offices in Egypt, OUR BUSINESS material prices inflated Jotun’s profits and the company’s overall expanded its factory in India and opened businesses in Kenya OUR BUSINESS growth was helped by a sharp increase in newbuilding orders and Mexico. The company has also started factory construction in the Marine segment. Jotun welcomed these favourable projects in Myanmar, the Philippines and Oman, and approved conditions, but the management team is more focused on the construction of a new corporate headquarters in Norway parts of the business it can control. And what makes 2015 that will include state-of-the-art Research and Development exceptional is that Jotun performed well in most areas, and for facilities. The success of Jotun’s premium products (e.g Jotachar the first time in recent memory, managed to grow the business and SeaQuantum) in 2015 serves as a strong reminder of in all segments and in all regions. the importance of retaining the company’s edge in product innovation. POSITIVE SALES AND GROWTH FROM PRODUCTS TO SOLUTIONS Jotun’s record profits are welcome, but a more accurate way to measure our success in 2015 is to look at positive developments While Jotun cannot expect favourable macro-economic effects in both underlying sales and volume growth and other financial to persist indefinitely, the company has built a strong platform indicators. For example, gross margins are up from last year, and to continue its positive growth trend. In addition to investing the company’s cash flow position has improved. It should also in new facilities, technologies and markets, Jotun is evolving be noted that the focus on controlling operating expenses – an from a products-based company to a solutions-based company. issue in years past – has been successful, with the company Rather than supplying paint, Jotun is working more closely ending the year with a reduction in costs relative to sales. than ever with customers – from homeowners to real estate developers, energy majors to shipowners – to develop solutions that meet their specific needs. This process may take time, but the management team is confident that it will help sustain Jotun’s growth for years to come.
