KONE Corporation will on 31 May, 2005 be demerged into two corporations, Cargotec Corporation, comprising KONE Corporation’s cargo-handling business, and KONE Corporation (new KONE), comprising KONE Corporation’s elevator, escalator and automatic door service operations. The two corporations will be listed on the main list of the Helsinki Stock Exchange on 1 June, 2005 in accordance with the disclosed demerger plan. In order to facilitate the evaluation of the financial performance and status of Cargotec, this pro forma review presents Cargotec’s January-March 2005 financial results according to the business and corporate structure that will prevail after the demerger. It is based on KONE Corporation’s Financial Statements and the operations of recently acquired MacGREGOR Group.
The most significant deviations between KONE Corporation’s Financial Statements and Cargotec’s pro forma figures are due to the allocation of corporate costs to Cargotec, as well as the inclusion of the operations of MacGREGOR Group. The operations of MacGREGOR Group are included in the pro forma figures with the exception of the elevator operations, which will be transferred to New KONE.
