From the principial speech of the fi rst general director of the State forests and goods in Banska Bystrica - Jozef Opletal (1919). 2 Annual Report 2010 Foreword by Director General Dear trade partners, dear colleagues, dear friends of forests, Even in 2010, forestry was marked by the diminishing economic crisis, which signifi cantly infl uenced the enti re operati on of the state enterprise LESY of the Slovak Republic. On one hand, it was aff ected from the fi nancial point of view in terms of ti mber prices that in spite of a slight increase did not reach the 2008 level and on the other hand, mainly form the economic and moral point of viewpoint. For the enter- prise LESY SR, the last year will remain recorded as the year of the record accidental felling or the year of three changes of top management in a short ti me period. In spite of this negati ve external infl uences the company was fi nancially stabilised. In additi on to meeti ng the monitored economic indicators in 2010 we have laid down the basis for setti ng the plans for 2011 so that we could return the money generated in economic acti viti es preferably back to the forest. Following the valid legislati on we allocated money to the guaranty fund that can be used in the following period for planti ng and further care for young forest stands at windthrown areas. I undertook the management of the enterprise in the half of the last year when the public perceived the company mainly through the causes. Therefore, one of the key tasks, apart from the eliminati on of ineff ecti ve overhead cost, was to increase decision making transparency in managing the company. This fi nally contributed to the increase of effi ciency and improvement of the year end economic results. For example, electronic procurement of goods and services brought a signifi cant savings. More than a quarter of expected cost of certain building investments was saved during the fi rsts tenders in October. This trend conti nued in December by launching the fi rst electronic ti mber aucti on, which pointed our diff erences in price list prices and real prices of ti mber at the market. Renti ng of all wood processing centres and in connecti on with the long-term ti mber delivery contracts was a substan- ti al decision of the previous top management in spring in the last year. Some the most disadvantageous contracts were changed on the basis of mutual agreement with the trading partners, which enabled the enterprise to avoid potenti al sancti ons. In spite of parti al changes these contracts signifi cantly limited available capaciti es in ti mber trade, which will become evident in the future if felling decreases. An extremely high share of accidental felling is an ongoing problem. In the last year, more than three fi ft hs out of nearly fi ve million cubic meters of harvested ti mber originated form accidental felling, which had a signifi cant infl uence on the average price. Another signifi cant problem is that secondary damages caused by bark insect have prevailed over the damages caused by wind or snow during the latest years. In certain cases, legislati on and objecti ons of environmental organisati ons prevent from eff ecti ve protecti on. Therefore, a long-term objecti ve of the enterprise is to manage forest
