Oriola-KD Corporation Stock Exchange Release 15 July 2014 at 4.00 p.m.
Oriola-KD Corporation repeats its guidance on operating profit excluding non-
recurring items and revises guidance for net sales growth - Net sales is
estimated to decrease from 2013 level.
Weak exchange rates of the Russian rouble and Swedish krona have negatively
affected euro-denominated net sales for 2014. The weak performance of the
Russian businesses, caused by the decline of the economic situation and severely
competitive environment is expected to have negative impact on Oriola-KD's full-
year net sales growth.
Revised outlook for 2014
Oriola-KD estimates that operating profit excluding non-recurring items will
increase compared to 2013 actual. Net sales is estimated to decrease from 2013
level.
Previous outlook on April 24, 2014
Oriola-KD estimates that net sales and operating profit excluding non-recurring
items will increase compared to 2013 actual.
Oriola-KD Corporation's January - June interim results are released on July 24,
July 2014.
