The safeguard measures implemented by the European Commission have not had the desired effect due to some fundamental flaws in their design. In 2019, these effects were exacerbated by the global slowdown in manufacturing, especially in the automo- tive industry. The resulting weak demand and historically low prices weighed heavily on Outokumpu’s results. In a testament to the resilience that the company has gained through four years of relentless execution of our must-win battles, we have been able, in spite of this harsh environ- ment, to celebrate important successes. Our sharp focus on cost and cash has resulted in a more than 4% productivity gain year on year, safeguarding our competitiveness and market position. Recognizing that in such an environment cash is even more important than ever, we drove working capital down by almost 220 million euros resulting in a 2019 was a challenging year for the significant reduction of net debt to just over 1.1 billion euros.
