  • Times Are Good for KONE, Neste Oil and Wärtsilä
    Nov 01, 2013 10:39 UTC Times Are Good for KONE, Neste Oil and Wärtsilä M-Index, M-Brain’s quarterly look into the media coverage of 15 large Finnish stock-listed companies revealed that in July-September, KONE, Neste Oil and Wärtsilä were the companies most often at the receiving end of positive publicity. Nokia reached a larger audience than the combined audience of all the other companies surveyed. Positive media coverage – three companies stand out Slightly more than half of KONE’s publicity in the surveyed web publications of Helsingin Sanomat, Kauppalehti and Taloussanomat was positive by tone, an excellent result and a further improvement to the company’s early-year performance. Examples of favourable coverage included positive profit warning and improved stock exchange performance that followed, Forbes placing KONE as an even more innovative company than Google, and reports of large orders that the company won in China. For Neste Oil, almost four tenths of publicity was positive. The company continued its good performance, improving from the last quarter’s one fourth share of positive attention. Most of the favourable coverage was connected with financials. Media reported of Neste Oil’s profit warning and the role of renewables in the improved Q2 result. Wärtsilä was the third company to stand out in terms of the share of favourable publicity. Comparisons to earlier M-Index analyses show that the company has considerably improved its performance in the surveyed media, compared to the last year. More than a third of Wärtsilä’s publicity in Q3 was positive by tone.
