To this end, Outokumpu has defi ned two key strategic objectives: • Value creation through building superior production and distribution capa- bilities in all major markets around the world • Value realization through commercial and production excellence Outokumpu has started work to map out the path toward realizing this vision. Today, our priority is to deliver on the promises we made during the previous strategic phase of growth and transformation in 2000–2004. At the same time, we are setting ambitious new targets for the coming fi ve-year period to make sure we emerge as the number one stainless steel producer in Europe. Outokumpu’s future success will be achieved by building and reinforcing operational excellence, both in the commercial and production arena. This op- erational excellence will be leveraged outside Europe to achieve global leader- ship: becoming the undisputed number one in stainless steel over the next ten years. In the light of Outokumpu's target of continuing to grow faster than the market, the operational excellence efforts will be supported by further develop- ment of the Group's current asset base, value chain and product offering. 2 Being the undisputed number one in stainless means: • Most profi table • Best in customer relationship management • Most effi cient production operations • Most attractive employer Financial objectives Outokumpu’s Outokumpu’s overall fi nancial objective is to gener- ate maximum sustainable economic value added. key strengths The specifi c group-level fi nancial objectives in line with the vision of becoming the number one in Produces stainless steel, the fastest-growing stainless steel in terms of growth, profi tability and segment of the metals market fi nancial strength are: A major investment program for future earnings • To continue growing faster than the market growth almost completed • A return on capital employed of over 13% and always the best among peers Added value through knowledge in metals • Gearing below 75% technology and innovations Dividend policy The Board of Directors has established a dividend policy according to which the dividend payout ratio over a business cycle should be at least one-third of the company’s net profi t for the period.
