    2019 Financial Statements Review Metso’s Financial Statements Review January 1 – December 31, 2019 Metso has classified its Minerals segment as discontinued operations from October 29, 2019, in accordance with IFRS.

  • 30 June 2020 and Financial Statements
    PRESS RELEASE 1 ( 8 ) 8 September 2020 at 9:30 Solidium Oy’s half-year report 1 January –30 June 2020 and financial statements: Six-month period 1 January–30 June 2020 • The return of Solidium’s equity holdings in the review period was -7.0 per cent • Metso and Outotec merged, and the stake in Neles was agreed to be sold to Valmet Financial year 1 July 2019–30 June 2020 • The return on equity holdings was -8.3 per cent in the financial year • Solidium’s result for the financial year was EUR 211 million • Solidium’s Board of Directors proposes that a dividend of EUR 168 million be paid to the owner Solidium’s CEO Antti Mäkinen comments: “Solidium’s financial year 2019–2020 was overshadowed by the coronavirus pandemic that broke out in the spring and the resulting restrictions that hit the global economy hard. The state of emergency declared had impacts on the operations of several of Solidium’s portfo- lio companies due to weakened demand, in particular. During the financial year, Solidium increased its holding in Konecranes, Nokian Tyres and Nokia, and reduced holdings in Kemira and Sampo. There were also significant transactions in the portfolio companies as Tieto and the Norwegian EVRY as well as Metso and Outotec merged. During the past financial year, we decided to take a more in-depth look into the companies’ carbon balance. We launched a project that benchmarks the carbon dioxide intensity of our portfolio companies against companies in the same industries globally. In accordance with its mandate, Solidium pays to the State the dividends it receives from the portfolio companies.
